Chapter 190 Ding Yi Ding Er
Xu Yang left the main hall of Mulingyuan, walked through the corridor, and arrived outside the gate of Mulingyuan.
"Hello, Senior Brother Xu." A young disciple guarding the gate of Muling Academy said respectfully.
"It's Junior Brother Liu. I didn't see you on duty here when I came just now," Xu Yang said.
"Senior Brother Xu, it's like this. After the master summoned you, he ordered the mountain gate of Mulingyuan to be temporarily sealed. Only people who are allowed to go out of the mountain are not allowed to enter. It turns out that the senior brothers who guard the gate went to inspect the foot of the mountain."
"When I got here before, there was a lot of excitement outside the mountain gate, but it suddenly became so deserted. It turns out that the mountain gate was sealed. Nothing happened, right?"
"I really haven't heard anything happened. Maybe the Headmaster doesn't want anyone to disturb him. I heard that the Headmaster has suffered from insomnia these days and doesn't rest well."
"I'm just asking casually. I see that you look good. Your cultivation should be at the peak of the spiritual realm."
As he spoke, Xu Yang turned over his hand and took out a purple pill with three silver lines on its surface.
"I have a Void Training Pill here, which should be of use to you."
Seeing the three dancing silver lines on the surface of the pill, Junior Brother Liu was very excited and quickly took the pill with both hands.
The top-grade Lianxu Dan is an excellent auxiliary elixir for breaking through into the spiritual realm and reaching the realm of transformation. It is also a good medicine for consolidating the cultivation of the realm of transformation. This Void Transformation Pill was not refined by Xu Yang himself, but was one of the rewards given by the sect for qualifying for the Evil Ghost Path trial.
This pill is nothing to Xu Yang, but it is a huge benefit to Junior Brother Liu.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Xu."
"Junior brother Liu, you're welcome. Take your leave."
"Senior Brother Xu, please walk slowly."
...
Out of the mountain gate.
As Xu Yang walked, he was thinking about the evil ghost trial in a month.
In order to cure the Wheel Flame Spirit, one needs to obtain the Nine Nether Crystals, in order to fulfill the master's wish, one needs to obtain the Ghost Wood, and one also needs to help Sister Xiao Yue'e find her younger sister. Although I have obtained the qualifications for the Evil Ghost Path Trial, it does not mean that I can easily accomplish these goals. I must prepare carefully to be more confident.
"Is that Mr. Xu Yangxu from the Wood Spirit Academy in front of you? Please stay."
At this moment, Xu Yang heard someone calling his name, but the voice was very unfamiliar.
Stopped and turned around to take a look.
Not far away stood a tall, middle-aged male cultivator. This man was dressed in purple brocade clothes. His stern face looked a little stiff, and his bright eyes were looking at him up and down.
"I am Xu Yang, brother, what do you want from me?"
Xu Yang said, an imperceptible red light flashed across his eyes, his eyes swept across the face of the person opposite, and he quietly used the Flame Spirit Eye.
"Huh? This person indeed has a disguised face, but his Flame Spirit Eyes can't see his true face clearly. It seems that the other party is well prepared. Although this is the territory of Tiangui Sect, but It's better to be careful," Xu Yang thought.
"I'm just an ordinary disciple of Tiangui Sect. My name is Ding Yi."
"Ding Yi, I have never heard of this person. It's probably a fake name." Xu Yang thought in his mind.
"Ah, I remembered. I do have a distant relative named Ding Yi. In terms of seniority, you should call me Grandpa Xu." Xu Yang slapped his forehead and deliberately made it up, waiting for the other party to reveal his flaws.
The male cultivator named Ding Yi was not angry after hearing this, and said calmly: "What two words do you call Ding Yi, a distant relative?"
"Is this it? I can't remember clearly. We are really distant relatives. What are the two characters in your name?"
"A little bit of a ding, a little bit of a ding."
"That's not true. My distant relative is also named Ding, and his single name is Yi Yi."
Ding didn't change his expression, bypassed the topic, and said directly: "Last time I saw you defeat your opponent in the True Alchemy Realm in the Evil Ghost Hall disciple selection with your cultivation in the Transformation Realm. Everyone said you were a secretive person. Genius, I want to discuss something with you."
"It's easy to talk, but I have something important to do now. How about we discuss it after I finish it?"
"Come on, do your thing, I'll wait for you."
"Wait for me here. I'll be right back."
After saying that, Xu Yang turned around and left, took two steps, turned around suddenly, and saw Ding Yi standing still.
Xu Yang nodded and smiled.
Ding Yi also nodded and smiled.
Xu Yang turned around and took a few more steps, then looked back.
However, they found that the place where Ding Yi was was empty, and the person who claimed to be Ding Yi was nowhere to be seen.
I let go of my consciousness and searched around, but there was still no trace of the man just now, as if Ding Yi had never appeared before.
Xu Yang couldn't help but take a breath of air.
"This person's cultivation level should be higher than mine. I'm afraid it's not as simple as asking myself to compete with him. Ignore him and go to the market first."
Xu Yang turned around and took the sect's small teleportation array to Zongneifang City.
Using the phantom mirror to perform the phantom clone technique requires spiritual grass with sufficient spiritual energy as a medium. Thousand-year-old spiritual ginseng is the best kind of spiritual grass.
Thousand-year-old spiritual ginseng is not only a great tonic, but the spirit-transforming energy on it is extremely rich. Some spiritual ginseng can even transform into human form by chance and the fate of heaven and earth.
In the streets of Fangshi.
People were coming and going, and it was as lively as ever.
Xu Yang stopped in front of a two-story wooden pavilion.
He looked up and saw the four gilt characters on the door plaque hanging upstairs, which read "Shen Ling Bao Yuan".
Xu Yang strode into the store.
"Sir, if you need any ginseng spirit, please come in. Our store has just received a batch of fine Baishan ginseng spirit."
A waiter in a grey cloth shirt said as he welcomed Xu Yang into the store with a smile.
The store was not big, with a long counter facing the door. Outside the counter was a yellow wooden square table and two yellow wooden chairs.
It happened that there were no other customers in the store at this time.
"I want to purchase the best ginseng spirits, take them out for me to see." Seeing that there were no other customers, Xu Yang said generously.
The waiter looked Xu Yang up and down, and saw that he was dressed in ordinary clothes and was not very old. He whispered, "Sir, the best ginseng spirits here are all this number."
As he said that, the waiter made a gesture.
Xu Yang understood at a glance that the price the waiter showed him was one thousand high-grade spirit stones.
If it was before, Xu Yang could only shake his head and walk away. After returning from the Xiaoxian Realm, Xu Yang was already worth 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, and he could afford one thousand spirit stones.
He said without hesitation, "Okay, take it out for me to see."
The waiter heard that a big deal had come. He immediately said with a smile: "Young Master, please wait a moment. I will ask the shopkeeper to deliver it to you personally."
A moment later, a middle-aged shopkeeper with a slightly fat figure and a brocade hat walked out from the counter, followed by the waiter just now.
The middle-aged shopkeeper held a rectangular red lacquer wooden box in his hand and walked to the square table where Xu Yang was.
Then he signaled the waiter behind him to close the door.
"Young Master, this is the best ginseng in our store. Please take a look."
As he said, he opened the wooden box, and a full-shaped and lush ginseng appeared in front of him, with circles of earth-colored spiritual patterns flashing on the surface of the ginseng.
Although this ginseng has not turned into a human form, it has sufficient spiritual energy and should have been cooked for ten thousand years.
"It is indeed a top-quality ginseng." After Xu Yang looked at it, he showed satisfaction.
Just then, the half-closed door of the store was pushed open with a creak, and someone walked in.
"Shopkeeper, I heard you have the best spiritual ginseng here." The visitor was a dark-faced man, tall, wearing a gray shirt, sweating profusely, and said hurriedly.
As he spoke, he walked towards the square table where Xu Yang was.
The middle-aged shopkeeper subconsciously covered the box containing the spiritual ginseng with his hand, but because of his haste, he only covered it halfway.
Seeing the box covered by the shopkeeper's hand, and then seeing the half of the spiritual ginseng exposed in the box. The black-faced man's eyes lit up. He said loudly: "This is the best spiritual ginseng, sell it to me quickly, I need it urgently."
As he spoke, he reached out to grab the box.
"Wait a minute, sir, this spiritual ginseng has been sold to this young master. We have other spiritual ginsengs in our store for you to choose." The middle-aged shopkeeper said and pushed the box containing the spiritual ginseng in front of Xu Yang.
"Please give it to me. My brother has a serious illness and is dying. The doctor said that only the ten thousand year old spiritual ginseng can save him. I went to several shops nearby and they just didn't have the ten thousand year old spiritual ginseng. I heard that your shop recently got a ten thousand year old spiritual ginseng. But this ginseng?" The black-faced man hurriedly explained.
"Human life is at stake. I am willing to give this ginseng to this big brother." Xu Yang said without hesitation.
"Thank you, sir, shopkeeper, how much is this ginseng?" The black-faced man showed joy on his face.
"Our store has no second price. I just sold it to this sir for one thousand high-grade spiritual stones."
"One thousand high-grade spiritual stones?"
The black-faced man heard that and the joy on his face was immediately reduced by half.
Hesitated for a while, and continued: "I only have six hundred high-grade spiritual stones here. How about keeping the rest in the account first? I will definitely raise the remaining amount when I go back."
"This? Our store is a small business and we don't sell on credit. I hope you will understand." The middle-aged shopkeeper hesitated.
When the black-faced man heard this, beads of sweat fell from his face. His eyebrows were like two twisted hemp ropes, wrinkling tighter and tighter, and his face became uglier and uglier.
Anxious!
Unwilling!
Angry!
His eyes were bloodshot and round, and he said loudly: "You, the shopkeeper, are unreasonable. You have to sell this ginseng to me today, whether you want to or not."
"In the market set up in the Tiangui Sect, how can you be so presumptuous here!" The middle-aged shopkeeper stood up from his seat, his face as cold as ice.
The waiter on the side saw that someone was trying to force a sale, and his expression was a little flustered. He was about to ring the warning bronze bell at the door. Once the bronze bell rang, it would not take half a minute for the deacon of the Law Enforcement Court in the market to rush over.
In the market of the Tiangui Sect, there are very few people making trouble on weekdays. The Soul Devouring Whip of the Law Enforcement Court is not a vegetarian, and most of the troublemakers end up with their skin torn and their souls torn apart.
"Wait a minute, shopkeeper. Don't make it difficult for this brother. I am willing to buy this spiritual ginseng and give it to him." At the critical moment, Xu Yang stood up and said.
At this time, Xu Yang couldn't help but think of the time when he went into the Luoyu Mountains alone to pick Huiming grass to seek medicine for his mother's eye disease.
To save people in an emergency, what could be more important than the health of relatives?
"Since this young man is so generous and kind-hearted, you are lucky, I will let you go this time." The middle-aged shopkeeper waved his hand, and the waiter did not ring the alarm bell at the door.
Xu Yang took out a storage bag and handed it to the shopkeeper. There were exactly one thousand high-grade spiritual stones in it.
"Thank you so much, young master. I will give you all the six hundred spiritual stones here. The remaining four hundred spiritual stones are considered as borrowed from you. I will definitely thank you and return them in the future." The black-faced man bowed deeply, then stood up and said.
"No need for that. It costs money to ask a doctor to see a doctor and prescribe medicine, and to take care of your body. These spirit stones will be more useful to you." As he said that, he handed the box of spiritual ginseng to the black-faced man.
The black-faced man took the box of spiritual ginseng, wiped the sweat off his face with his hand, and left in a hurry with satisfaction.
When he reached the door, the black-faced man turned his head and said loudly: "My name is Ding Er, I will come to thank you in the future."
After saying that, he turned around and disappeared outside the door.
"Ding Er?" When Xu Yang heard this, he immediately remembered Ding Yi who wanted to compete with him before, and hurriedly chased to the door of the store. Looking around, there was no figure of Ding Er on the whole street.
