Chapter 353: Ye Family Kung Fu, Trial Operation
As everyone walked along, they soon arrived at three two-story buildings under the leadership of Ye Changxing.
"These are three core shops, Master Lin, the restaurant is next to it!" Ye Changxing led everyone to the side.
Lin Houyuan waved his hand, and Lin Shizhong and Lin Houxuan entered the Dan Pavilion and the Weapon Training Pavilion respectively.
They started to prepare.
After walking through the core shops, Ye Changxing also urged the Lin family to pay the betrothal gift, and then said goodbye and left.
He didn't even stay for a cup of tea.
"Shiming, these shops are adjacent to the Duan family and the Cheng family!" Lin Houyuan said with some concern.
Although the Duan family and the Cheng family are good at refining tools and talismans, they also have shops selling elixirs. The Ye family gave these shops to the Lin family so that they could restrict the two.
"It doesn't matter. Prepare more these days and refine some bigu pills. When the time comes, try to open ten days in advance. Don't sell anything. As long as there are cultivators coming, give away bigu pills!" Lin Shiming said.
The Lin family's target has always been not the Duan family and the Cheng family. Now they are just playing it safe. The most important thing is the attitude of the Coral Alliance.
How to contact the real people of the Coral Alliance without being abrupt is the most important thing for the Lin family at present.
Giving away the Bigu Pill is also a marketing method prepared by the Lin family. It is also aimed at some Qigong cultivators. Although the Bigu Pill is not a good pill, every cultivator can use it. First, the traffic and reputation will be promoted.
Then, during the wedding, the Lin family restaurant and the Lin family's shop will officially enter the vision of Tianxiang Island.
"Second brother, you can go out with Yujiao more these days to relax. I did the same with Shitao back then. How can lovers not meet each other all the time? The Ye family said that there are still many people chasing Yujiao!" Lin Shiming looked at Lin Shiyi again and said with a smile.
"This is not good!" Lin Shiyi scratched his head and smiled foolishly. After the wedding date was set, he did talk less with Ye Yujiao.
"Get to know more!" Lin Shiming added again.
After that, he went up to the third floor of the restaurant.
The attic of the restaurant was very large, similar to a courtyard house. Next to the Lin family's restaurant, there were also the Duan family and the Cheng family's restaurants. The most luxurious one was the Ziyumen's restaurant, the Ziyu Pavilion.
It had four floors and was extremely magnificent. Most of the foundation-building casual cultivators or other sects lived in the Ziyu Pavilion.
Lin Shiming found a room, took out the Lin family's newly acquired spiritual tea, Cuilan Tea, and began to drink it leisurely.
Unlike Mingxin Tea, Cuilan Tea has a more orchid fragrance, refreshing the mind, and more abundant spiritual energy. Even if a foundation-building cultivator drinks it, it can save several months of hard practice.
And the divine consciousness fell on Lin Shiyi without anyone noticing.
What he said to Lin Shiyi was naturally not lost. Next, it depends on whether the Duan family and the Cheng family will seize the opportunity.
While drinking tea, Lin Shiming checked the jade slip, which contained the information collected by the Lin family.
As for the sphere of influence of Tianxiang Island, the Lin family naturally could not rely on the Ye family's nonsense. Half of this information was inquired by the Lin family cultivators, and the other half was purchased from other foundation-building forces on Tianxiang Island.
Most of the information matched what the Ye family said, and the big competition before the auction not only determined the share of the auction, but also determined the share of the market.
If the Lin family only had cultivators in the late stage of foundation building, it is possible that the Lin family could only accept it silently.
Of course, for him, the more tricks the Ye family played, the more satisfied he was.
The auction two months later also happened to have an auction of Buddhist instruments. The only shortcoming was that there was no Buddhist technique.
However, Lin Shiming thought about it and felt that it was normal. Generally, there were few techniques for sale, let alone selling Buddhist techniques in the Coral League Sea.
…
In the Ye family meeting hall, several Ye family foundation-building cultivators gathered together.
Ye Changxing looked at the head of the Ye family, Ye Changfeng, who was in the middle stage of foundation building.
He stated one by one, and Ye Changfeng nodded continuously.
"Master, do we really have to rely on a family that came out of nowhere?" A white-haired old man beside him couldn't help but speak anxiously, obviously a little angry.
"Uncle San, this is just a stopgap measure. When Changyu breaks through the late stage of foundation building, coupled with the skills he practices, he can resist the peak of foundation building!" Ye Changfeng also explained.
They are naturally prepared for the Lin family. Even if the Lin family comes to make trouble, they will naturally expose the details of the Lin family.
"Changxing, you continue to investigate the Lin family's affairs. Make sure to find out where the Lin family came from!"
The others nodded when they heard this. Changyu was in seclusion at a critical moment, and they naturally knew it.
As long as Changyu breaks through the late stage of foundation building, all problems will be solved. Then it will be time to squeeze out the Lin family.
"Master, Yujiao has gone out with Lin Shiyi of the Lin family!"
Ye Changxing spoke again with some concern. They were not worried about going out at other times, but now it is the wedding, and it is not safe to enjoy the flowers and the moon.
"It doesn't matter. If the Lin family can't even solve this little trouble, then there's no need to rely on the Lin family!" Ye Changfeng spoke again.
...
At a reef on Tianxiang Island, huge waves hit the reefs, creating thousands of waves.
Lin Shiyi looked at Ye Yujiao beside him, smiling innocently, and took out a piece of spiritual jade magic weapon in his hand and handed it to Ye Yujiao.
"Yujiao, this is for you!" After Lin Shiyi gave it to her, he also smiled innocently.
No extra words were said, and for Lin Shiyi, there was no extra love words to say.
And Ye Yujiao also understood that the two cultivators who had practiced for seventy or eighty years had no experience in love at all.
But I still understand whether the true feelings are revealed.
Her eyes were like stars and gems. She put away her jade pendant. The two of them rose from the reef and flew towards the rest of the sea. They paraded along the way, seeing the local customs and the beautiful scenery everywhere.
A spiritual boat, a pair of lovers, floating in the sea.
For the two of them, this time is completely their own time. There is no family as a priority, and there are no worries about cultivation.
Ye Yujiao could step into the sea with her bare feet, raise the water with one foot, and kick it towards Lin Shiyi.
Lin Shiyi would also press Ye Yujiao's feet and joke with a smile.
However, what they didn't know was that behind them, an old man in the late stage of foundation building was heading towards them.
The old man took out the formation disks and began to arrange them one by one. He was still wearing a spiritual gauze.
One after another formation flags fell into the sea, and a smile began to appear on the old man's face.
"What a pair of young people who know nothing about the world!" the old man couldn't help but say.
The formation flag in his hand finally fell.
It turned into a spiritual light, covering most of the sea area.
"Oh!" The old man only heard a young voice behind him.
Then all I saw was a huge black tower that kept getting bigger and bigger, and in the blink of an eye, it looked like a mountain peak.
The terrifying suction force came, and the old man's face changed drastically. He resisted desperately, and countless magic weapons flew out, but it was useless.
"You are a monk from Zifu!" The old man's face was as pale as an ice coffin.
But before he finished speaking, he fell into the soul-suppressing tower.
The next moment, the formation dispersed quietly.
Returning to Tianxiang Island, Lin Shiming also retreated again. As the soundproof formations fell, Lin Shiming also entered the cave world.
The soul-suppressing tower fell in front of him. You must know that there is an explanation on the third page of the Tibetan Taoist book. The soul-suppressing tower not only suppresses attacks and defends, but the most important thing is that the soul-suppressing stone can avoid the family jade book and fight with the blood. The secret method of body refining is like checking the memory of the deceased.
Lin Shiming turned the soul-suppressing tower and soon the old man's body appeared. As the spiritual seals entered the old man's body one after another, the appearance of the family jade book also appeared out of thin air.
Suddenly countless black lights emerged and headed towards the family jade book.
boom!
After a while, the family jade book exploded, and memory fragments began to emerge.
After a long time, Lin Shiming opened his eyes and understood most of the old man's memories.
The old man is Duan Haoran, the third elder of the Duan family.
We also have a rough idea of what happened to the Ye family. Not surprisingly, the last head of the Ye family was killed by the Ziyu Sect.
The purpose turned out to be that the Ye family had a technique, the Phantom Heart Sutra.
Although the specific level of the Phantom Heart Sutra is unclear, the previous head of the Ye family relied on this technique to withstand the peak of foundation building in the later stages of foundation building. The technique is most likely an earth-level technique.
This is why the Ye family was expelled by the Duan family and the Cheng family.
Lin Shiming was not surprised by the Ziyu Sect's intervention. You must know that the three families are all affiliated with the Ziyu Sect. There are also many monks in the family who have joined the Ziyu Sect.
It was just that the Ye family also had earth-level skills, which surprised him a little.
…
In a palace at Purple Jade Gate, the heads of the Cheng family and the Duan family came to the palace together. Above the palace, a beautiful woman in brocade robes sat quietly.
"Say, what's the matter?"
"Hui Sanren, the late-stage foundation-building monk we arranged to face Lin Shiyi of the Lin family died silently, and the jade slips also shattered!"
"I'm afraid there are monks from the Purple Mansion in the Lin family. The sea area where the Lin family is located is also extremely remote. There are often big monsters from the Purple Mansion. It's very likely that there are monks from the Purple Mansion!" The head of the Duan family continued to speak!
Duan Haoran's silent death shocked both families!
Perhaps the late-stage foundation-building monks can suppress Duan Haoran, and the peak-stage foundation-building monks can kill Duan Haoran, but it will never be so quiet, and no movement can be heard!
"Understood, I will inform Ziyu Sanren. You continue to test and investigate, and be sure to find out whether the Lin family is a dragon crossing the river or really a hidden family!"
Luo Yun Sanren continued to speak, then took out his storage bag and flew towards the Duan and Cheng families.
"This is a soul-piercing shuttle, a top-notch flying magic weapon. Its speed is not much worse than that of ordinary Zifu monks. You can take it and use it first!"
After speaking, he shook his sleeves and let the two leave first.
As soon as the heads of the Duan family and the Cheng family left, behind the palace, a middle-aged man in purple robes also walked to the front of the palace. However, the Ziyu Sanren at this moment was covered in scales and looked extremely scary.
Luoyun Sanren couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Husband, is the poison of this dragon scale so difficult to cure?"
"Of course, why is Jiulong Island ranked number one in the sea area and able to support dragons? Without the antidote from Jiulong Island, there is no way to cure it!" Ziyu Sanren couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at Luoyun Sanren.
"I can only hope that the newly emerged Lin family really has mastered the secret realm of the red dragon and really has golden dragon fruit trees!"
…
A few days before the wedding, Lin's restaurant, Lin's Dange, and Lin's utensils shop also opened one after another.
Accompanied by red lanterns and Lingxia fireworks.
Lin Houyuan was also standing in front of Lin's Restaurant.
However, the effect was not very good. Most of the monks still headed towards the Qi Pavilion and Danfang of the Duan family and the Cheng family.
He didn't even glance at the Lin family's Dan Pavilion and Qi Workshop.
In the past few months, the elixirs and magic weapons of both companies have been reduced in price.
Lin Houyuan was not surprised by this. A new force with no reputation or strength, naturally many monks would not take a second look at it.
Plus the Duan family and Cheng family are selling at reduced prices.
One can only think that the Lin family has a lot of spiritual stones, can afford to rent a shop from the Ye family, and can withstand the suppression of the Duan family and the Cheng family.
Even the cultivators who were interested only wandered around the streets, fearing that they would be seen by the cultivators of the Duan family if they entered the Lin family shop and would not get discounts.
Lin Houyuan looked at the sky and saw that it was almost dark, so he took out the sign of trial operation. Finally, cultivators came one after another in the distance and began to stroll around the shops leisurely.
After visiting other shops, he also walked into the Lin family's Dan Pavilion and Weapon Shop. After a while, he walked out with a bottle of Dan in his hand, satisfied, and many cultivators looked at him with some curiosity.
After a while, several Qi training casual cultivators also became more interested and walked towards the Lin family's Dan Pavilion and Weapon Shop.
As soon as they came out, they were just like the cultivators before, which surprised their friends.
They naturally saw that the previous batch of cultivators were agents.
But the ones who came out now were their relatives and friends, so it was naturally impossible for them to be bribed so easily. Even if they were bribed, as long as the price was right, they could be bribed.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, how about it?"
"Hurry in, I'll take you in!" The cultivator called Fellow Daoist Xu said immediately.
"The Lin family is a big family, with all kinds of elixirs from second-level to third-level elixirs, and the categories are probably more than the Ye family's alchemy shop!"
"And now it's a trial operation, giving away ten fasting pills, although not worth a few spirit stones, but if all the cultivators from Tianxiang Island go, you still know the cost!"
"And now pre-sale orders only need 80% of the price, for us casual cultivators, it is definitely a conscientious merchant!"
...
The cultivator surnamed Xu gave a wonderful introduction, which made several casual cultivators speechless!
If this Lin family alchemy pavilion is really so good, why was it unknown before!
"Fellow Daoist Xu, you have been bribed!"
"How is it possible? How could I, Xu, be bribed? We have been friends for many years. Do you think I am that kind of person?"
"Then let's go!"
"No, introduce other cultivators to pre-order at the Lin family's Dan Pavilion. As long as you introduce ten people, you will get a low-grade elixir! If you introduce fifty people to pre-order, you will get a medium-grade elixir!"
Several people looked at the cultivator surnamed Xu in silence, but in a blink of an eye, several people began to think.
"The pre-sale is also limited. It is said that it is for the wedding of the genius son of the Lin family and Ye Yujiao of the Ye family!" The cultivator surnamed Xu added again. He was afraid that several people would not go with him this time. He had never encountered such a good thing in his life!
After several people entered, they began to summon each other. There was also an endless stream of people in front of the Lin family's Dan Pavilion and the weapon workshop, which made Lin Houyuan extremely satisfied.
Of course, for the Lin family, the most important thing on the wedding day was to promote the reputation of the Lin family restaurant.
