Main Text Chapter 67: Donglai Cave Master (V)
Looking around for a long time, he rode the black charcoal and circled the mountain gate. He went in and out repeatedly, but no one stopped him. There was really no ghost.
Is this place where anyone can enter really his territory?
Or is Qin Weiwei playing a trick on him, deliberately making him a lone cave master?
The face of the Great Cave Master Miao darkened, and the good mood of taking office turned into a bubble. He suddenly roared: "Is there anyone alive? Get out!"
He roared while casting a spell, and the sound shook the mountains and scared the birds in the forest.
Fortunately, the situation was not as bad as he thought. Soon, three figures flashed in one after another.
The leader was none other than Yan Xiu. Miao Yi also knew the other two. They were also surrendered soldiers of Fuguang Cave. They were the two White Lotus second-grade cultivators who surrendered in Fuguang Cave. One was called Shan Biaoyi and the other was called Qiu Shaoqun. They could be said to be surrendered soldiers of Fuguang Cave who surrendered to Yang Qing.
When the two sides met, they were both stunned.
Yan Xiu's eyes fell on the storage ring on Miao Yi's finger, and he smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Is the new cave master taking office?"
"Senior Yan?" Miao Yi looked strange. Didn't Qin Weiwei refuse to give Yan Xiu to him? Why is he here? Naturally asked, "Why are you here?"
Yan Xiu turned around and pointed at the other two people, and smiled, "The mountain owner asked me to bring them here to take care of Donglai Cave temporarily, and wait for the new cave master to take office. I guess you will be the new cave master."
"What the hell is that bitch doing? Is it fun to play tricks on people?" Miao Yi rolled his eyes.
Don't you know that Yang Qing can let Qin Weiwei sit in Zhenhai Mountain, Qin Weiwei will not mess up the business, even though she is very unhappy with Miao Yi, but she will not miss the business. She is also worried that Miao Yi's cultivation is low and he can't control the people under him while sitting in Donglai Cave, so she specially sent Yan Xiu, who has a good relationship with Miao Yi, to come here, and pointed out that Yan Xiu will temporarily take charge of Donglai Cave. Even the other two surrendered people from Fuguang Cave, Shan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun, were sent here, just to hope that Miao Yi would have more close people around him to prevent Donglai Cave from getting into trouble.
Yan Xiu asked curiously, "Which bitch?"
"Uh..." Miao Yi glanced at Shan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun, swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, and it was not good to say bad things about the mountain owner Qin Weiwei in front of outsiders, so he casually said, "Nothing."
Yan Xiu immediately understood from his reaction, and probably guessed which bitch he was talking about. He also knew that Miao Yi didn't have a good relationship with that person, and some things were not easy to say in front of Shan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun. He immediately bowed and changed the subject: "But the new cave owner has taken office? If so, please take out the mountain owner's handwritten order to verify, so that Yan Xiu can hand over Donglai Cave."
Miao Yi's middle finger storage ring The jade tablet popped out and landed in Yan Xiu's hand. After Yan Xiu read it, he nodded to the other two. The three of them immediately stood in a row and bowed together, saying, "Subordinates pay homage to the cave master!"
If it was before when Miao Yi was still the Ma Cheng of Fuguang Cave, Shan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun might not have taken Miao Yi seriously, but now it is different. In the battle of Fuguang Cave, the two have seen Miao Yi's strength. He killed three White Lotus second-grade cultivators and one White Lotus third-grade cultivator alone, and the five people joined forces to defeat Miao Yi. They had no choice but to bow their heads, and now they could only be respectful.
Miao Yi, who was sitting on the charcoal, smiled and extended his hand to support him, saying, "Senior Yan, you three don't need to be so polite."
"The cave master dare not address me like this." Yan Xiu said seriously, "There are different ranks. The cave master can address me Yan Xiu from now on."
Miao Yi chuckled, but turned around and his face darkened again. He pointed to the unattended mountain gate and asked, "What's going on? Why is there not even a gatekeeper? Is my Donglai Cave a mere formality, allowing anyone to come in and out at will? If we don't even know that a thief has stolen something and left, what are we doing here? Yan Xiu, the mountain master asked you to temporarily manage Donglai Cave, and this is how you manage it?"
The words were a bit impolite. It was not that he didn't give Yan Xiu face, but that this matter was too much. If it continued like this, he wouldn't know if someone suddenly broke in one day. Yan Xiu's muddle-headed work made him very unhappy.
"Cave master, you really wronged your men." Yan Xiu explained with a bitter face.
The reason is simple. The ten hills in the entire Nanxuan Prefecture require at least 1,100 cultivators to guard them. After Yang Qing conquered Nanxuan, his territory suddenly expanded. The troops in his hands were not enough. Most of them were supplemented by disciples of Lanyumen according to the agreement with Lanyumen.
Donglai Cave was no exception. Before Miao Yi came, except Yan Xiu, Shan Biaoyi and Qiu Shaoqun, the other seven people were all disciples of Lanyumen. There were three people with the third-grade cultivation of White Lotus, and the other four were all with the second-grade cultivation of White Lotus.
Although Yan Xiu was ordered to temporarily manage Donglai Cave, the seven people were disciples of the same sect, and they were in collusion. In addition, they were outnumbered and did not take Yan Xiu seriously at all.
Yan Xiu transferred people from them to guard the gate, release horses and take care of miscellaneous items, but they ignored him. Instead, Yan Xiu and the other two were forced to release horses, do miscellaneous things, and prepare meals for them. Who would come here to guard the mountain gate for nothing?
Originally, the city lord of Donglai City wanted to send some manpower or things as a gift, but Yan Xiu knew that once the things were delivered, they would definitely be divided up by these people. At that time, no matter whether the new cave master was Miao Yi or not, he would not be able to report to the new cave master. So Yan Xiu secretly threatened the city lord, saying that he would make a decision after the cave master came, otherwise the cave master would not forgive him.
As he was talking here, there were seven people in blue clothes inside. After hearing the noise, they walked out slowly without panicking, unlike Yan Xiu and the other two who flashed in quickly.
Sitting on the dragon horse, Miao Yi squinted at these people, his flickering eyes seeping out from the gaps between his eyes, his hands resting on his abdomen, the middle finger with the storage ring gently tapping his knuckles, no one knows what he is thinking.
Yan Xiu and the other two seemed to be a little afraid of these people, Yan Xiu did not dare to speak openly, and directly introduced these people to Miao Yi in secret.
The first three people who came in with a swagger were named Song Fu, Wang Zifa, and Zhu Tianbiao, and they looked quite old, especially Song Fu, who was simply an old man, and looked older than Yan Xiu, but they were all White Lotus Rank 3.
The four people behind the three were all White Lotus Rank 2, named Shang Youlai, Hou Sheng, Wang Xiuqin, Nan Sisi, and the last two were women.
Seeing Miao Yi sitting on the dragon horse, and the storage ring in Miao Yi's hand, plus the reactions of Yan Xiu and others, Song Fu and the other two looked at each other and knew what was going on. The sarcasm in their eyes was hard to conceal. A kid with the cultivation level of the first rank of White Lotus actually wanted to be their cave master. It was simply a joke. Did they really think that Lan Yumen was easy to bully?
The seven people came over and stood still. Song Fu, with an old-fashioned look, pointed at Miao Yi and shouted unceremoniously: "Who is shouting here?"
