Alienated Martial Arts

Chapter 447
"Baifeng City does not welcome the poor."

"But the poor love Baifeng City."

Standing in front of the tall and thick city wall, Qin Dong reined in the carriage and stopped the carriage.

After a moment of silence, he added with a sigh, "Because here, ordinary people have more opportunities to make a living. Although their lives are not very good, at least they can barely survive."

People and carriages quickly came to the city, like tiny ants, ready to enter a magnificent palace.

There was already a long line in front of the gate, many people brought large and small packages, and prepared jade coins for entering the city in advance, waiting for the inspection by the guards.

And not far from the long queue, there is another passage.

It is empty here, and the entry and exit are smoother, and there is no crowded and chaotic situation at all.

Qin Dong continued to drive forward, but turned a corner not long after.

Instead of queuing to the back of the long queue, he walked up the more spacious and smooth passage.

Wei Tao followed behind silently.

The hands hidden in the sleeves kept gesticulating, and the expression in the eyes looked a little dazed, as if the whole person was lost in thought.

There were only a few people in front of them, wearing obviously more gorgeous clothes, walking towards the city while talking and laughing.

The city guards didn't come up to check at all.

Instead, he bowed and saluted at a distance of more than ten steps, making a full-fledged gesture of respect and flattery.

The man walking in the middle threw a handful of jade coins at random, which immediately made several guards smile and kept saying all kinds of flattering and auspicious words.

The man just smiled slightly, and then started chatting with his companions again, without turning his head to look at him at all.

When he got closer, Qin Dong jumped out of the carriage, took the reins and walked slowly, leaning over to the horse's head from time to time and whispering, not knowing what he was talking about.

There was a rhythmic rattle as the wheels rolled over the ashlar ground.

There are occasional snorting in the middle, mixed into the cool morning wind, and drifting quietly to a farther place.

Suddenly there was a muffled pop.

It sounds a little unusual.

There is also a more complex taste, which quietly spread out with this muffled sound.

Qin Dong's complexion suddenly changed, and he sighed helplessly, "Just now I have been persuading you not to shit, at least wait until you enter the city, why can't you idiot understand human speech."

Only now did Wei Tao understand what senior brother Qin had been rambling about.

He couldn't help smiling, "It's going to rain, the horse is going to shit, just let it go."

Qin Dong sighed again, "In this situation, what can I do except let it go, thanks to the fact that I raised it from a young age, it didn't even give me any face.

Fortunately, I changed the bag for it in advance, so it won't make it too ugly here. "

As the two were talking, several guards greeted them with angry faces, covering their noses.

"Are you two blind, don't know where to line up to enter the door!?"

"If it is seen by the nobles..."

The leading strong man cursed and cursed, but his voice stopped abruptly when he got close.

The corners of his eyes and mouth twitched slightly, staring at a delicate token in Qin Dong's palm, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat in an instant.

Qin Dong stopped at this moment, "Our brothers are also following orders, and we dare not delay Miss's orders, but it seems that it is not convenient to go from here?"

"It's convenient and convenient. The main reason is that the villain is blind and didn't recognize the identities of the two gentlemen. I hope that there are a lot of gentlemen. If you don't care about the villain, you will be alone."

The burly man hurriedly stepped aside, smiling all over his face, not daring to obstruct him in any way.

Quietly, another bulging money bag appeared on the shaft of the car, tinkling as the wheels rolled.

It wasn't until he watched the carriage go away that he slowly straightened up, his face full of fear and fear.

A guard next to him asked suspiciously, "Boss, what happened to those two just now?"

The strong man exhaled heavily, "It doesn't matter what their origin is, what matters is the token, even if the He family sees it, they have to treat each other with courtesy, so you know their origin?"

"Even the He family should treat each other with courtesy?"

The guard suddenly gasped, "Could it be that these two are disciples who went out to practice in a certain spiritual realm?"

"It should not be the disciples of the spiritual realm, but the chore servants running errands under them."

The strong man thought of the two poor horses and the cart of spiritual food he was pulling, and slowly shook his head.

"However, the King of Hades is easy to see, and little ghosts are difficult to deal with. If you really offend such a person, it will be a very troublesome thing, and sometimes it is even more troublesome than meeting a big person.

So today's matter can only be spent to eliminate disasters. I hope they will look at the face of a bag of jade money and don't care about us brothers. "

After entering the city, the carriage drove along the long street.

Teahouses, restaurants and various shops on both sides are full of people, and all kinds of cries come and go, full of lively and prosperous life.

Qin Dong tightly covered his clothes with one hand to protect the things hidden inside, and he didn't even bother to watch and appreciate the dazzling array of goods around him.

"Is it the feeling of a fox pretending to be a tiger just now?"

He looked back at the city gate that was gradually going away, and sighed in surprise, "It's just a sign that the little girl threw over casually, but it has such a great energy, it even made me see it from the guard of the city gate for the first time. Here comes the money back."

"I don't know which young lady from the He family she is, but she just got two chalcedony. To be honest, I have never seen such a precious thing in my life.

Coupled with the unexpected bag of jade money, we really made a lot of money when we came out this time, and we can buy enough materials for our juniors to learn to practice. "

After a pause, Qin Dong sighed secretly again.

"This is chalcedony, one piece is at least equivalent to thousands of jade coins, looking at her looks like throwing two stones, it's really hard to imagine, how rich is it to dare to be so extravagant. "

Snapped!
Another attempt at spirit pattern construction failed.

Wei Tao came back to his senses at this moment, and said with a gentle smile, "She should not be the lady of the He family, but a guest who came to visit the He family."

"Junior Brother Wei can even see this?"

Qin Dong praised again and again, "No wonder the teacher said that the younger brother's eyes are like a torch, and he can often point to the core of the problem at a glance. It really is that people are divided into three or six grades. If you don't accept it, you just can't do it."

Not long after, the two stopped in front of the gate of a magnificent mansion.

A middle-aged woman wearing a veil came out from inside, it was one of the people I met outside the city just now.

"Your speed is too slow, I have been waiting here for a long time."

She took the token that Qin Dong returned with both hands, threw another chalcedony, and said something indifferently.

"I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time. The main reason is that there are too many people on the street, which delayed a little time."

Qin Dong hastily bowed, and then continued, "Where should these spiritual food be placed next, we will transport them there."

"You just take it away, it has nothing to do with me whether you sell it or throw it away."

The middle-aged woman didn't even look at the carriage full of spiritual food, but just set her eyes on Wei Tao, looking him up and down.

"Come with me, Miss wants to see you."

She stretched out her finger, and regardless of whether Wei Tao agreed or not, she turned around and walked towards the door.

"Senior brother..."

Qin Dong's lips moved, and he stretched out his hand to pull Wei Tao's sleeve.

"Since we've all come here, I'm afraid it's not so easy to just turn around and leave."

Wei Tao looked at the back of the middle-aged woman leaving, and said in a gentle voice, "I'll go over to see what's going on, brother can take advantage of this time to sell the spiritual food, and then we will meet at the Laiyi Restaurant just passing by."

Enter the gate and go straight along the flat path paved with bluestone.

After passing through several pavilions, the middle-aged woman stopped in front of an elegant and quiet garden courtyard.

There is a small gazebo inside.

Sitting there was a woman in white clothes who was dressed casually.

Wei Tao's heart moved, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

I thought I was going to meet the little girl who made a sarcasm at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to be someone else.

He still remembered that she was the last one. Although she didn't speak from the beginning to the end, she was faintly the real core of the whole team.

It's just that compared with when we met outside the city, she let her hair down, she looked a little less heroic, but a little more charming.

Seeing that it wasn't that little girl, Wei Tao couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Because he was very interested in a string of wooden necklaces hanging around her neck, if it was her, he would have plenty of time to investigate and study it.

But when it comes, let it be.

Let's see what this woman means first.

"sit down."

"Aunt Feng, serve tea."

The woman in white pointed at the stone bench opposite, picked up a spiritual fruit and put it in her mouth.

"I don't know why the girl asked me to come here?"

Wei Tao sat down slowly, took the teacup from the middle-aged woman, didn't take a sip, just held it in his hand.

"You are a spiritual planter."

"And it's extremely rare, a spirit planter with spirit pattern inheritance."

She raised her head, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"I wasn't sure when I was outside the city, but after thinking about it on the way back, I finally confirmed my judgment.

So Aunt Feng specially called you over, because she wanted to ask you to help me with something. "

Wei Tao and her looked at each other, "Why is the girl so sure that I am a spirit planter with the inheritance of spirit patterns?"

"Because my name is Yan Ling, and I'm from the Yan family in Chishan Lingyu."

"However, this is not the main reason. I just want to tell you that rejecting me is not a good choice.

The real reason is that my eyes are a little different, so I can discover your hidden secrets. "

She smiled, picked up another spiritual fruit, and chewed it slowly in her mouth.

Yan Family, Chishan Lingyu.

Since he came here, he has been huddling in the mountains to farm and practice. He has never heard of these two names at all, and naturally he cannot understand the meaning behind them.

And he's busy right now.

Been very busy lately.

Jialan's second spirit pattern has not been able to really get started, and there is no energy to do other things at all.

In addition, the woman's expression and tone of voice also inexplicably made him feel a little uncomfortable, not to mention wasting his time to help her.

Wei Tao lowered his eyes, staring at the ripples in the cup, "I'm just a spiritual planter farming, I really can't think of anything that can make Miss Yan find me to help."

"Since it is a Lingzhi teacher, it is naturally related to Lingzhi."

Yan Ling said lightly, "Although you look relatively young, and your cultivation level may be insufficient, since you have reached the level of comprehension and spiritual practice, then even if you are poor, you should not be too bad.

More importantly, being young has its own advantages. Compared with those old people who are deeply depressed, they will have many more whimsical ideas, and they may be able to find another way and really find a solution to the problem. "

Wei Tao put the teacup back on the table, "I probably understand what Miss Yan means, but I've been very busy recently, I'm afraid I won't be able to get away..."

"Ten pieces of chalcedony."

She holds up a finger.

Wei Tao sighed, "I'm really busy."

"Fifteen, and regardless of whether you can finally solve the problem, I will give you five as a reward in advance."

"I'll check the time, if..."

"Twenty."

"I……"

"thirty."

She raised her third finger and added, "Besides, I also have material resources for practicing spiritual planting here, and I can open the warehouse for you to use."

This little girl is actually quite pretty.

Although the voice of speaking is a bit cold.

But it seems to be a bit pleasant to get used to it.

Wei Tao sighed again, "I have always been kind to others, willing to help others, and I prefer to make friends, so since Miss Yan encountered difficulties, and I just happened to meet them, it is really unreasonable not to help."

"As for whether you get paid or not, it's not really important, and I'm not the kind of person who doesn't work without seeing the benefits."

When he said this, he looked down at the teacup and observed the ups and downs of the tea leaves in the water.

He never spoke again, nor did he make any gestures.

Clap clap clap clap!
Accompanied by a series of crisp sounds.

The familiar spiritual energy fluctuations came quietly.

Five pieces of chalcedony appeared in a row on the table in front of him.

"I have always been straightforward in my work. This is a deposit of five chalcedony. You can arrange your affairs now. We'd better leave as soon as possible..."

Swish!
There seemed to be a breeze blowing by.

Except for the cup of clear tea, the table was empty, and there was no more chalcedony in sight.

In the middle of Yan Ling's speech, the hand that was going to grab the spiritual fruit was also suspended in the air, and she blinked involuntarily.

A few steps away, Aunt Feng's pupils contracted and her body tensed up suddenly.

What kind of hand speed is this! ?

It was so fast that she didn't respond.

It even made her think that she was hallucinating, as if under the watchful eyes of everyone, the chalcedony that the lady took out disappeared without warning.

Even if the spirit planter has no lethality, if he just took out a weapon with a spirit blade engraved with spirit spells in advance, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Aunt Feng subconsciously took a few steps forward and stood behind her young lady.

She no longer dared to be distracted like she was just now, but stared at the person across the table, completely on high alert.

At this moment, Wei Tao coughed lightly, "Miss Yan can tell me what exactly needs my help."

Yan Ling picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp, a joyful smile gradually appeared on her face.

Originally, she was also rushing to the doctor in a hurry, thinking of just trying her luck, but she didn't expect to meet Bao here.

Leaving aside other things for the time being, just looking at the speed that this person just showed and the accuracy of ingesting chalcedony, if it is used to cast spiritual spells, in the eyes of ordinary people, it may have achieved the effect of instant spiritual spells.

With the blessing of spiritual pattern inheritance, maybe she can make her whole family stand out from the younger generation, and get the respect and recognition of the ancestors.

Yan Ling took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, and when she spoke again, her voice suddenly dropped.

"The ancestor of the family was sick, and many people were invited, but they were not optimistic, and the condition became more and more serious."

After hearing the first sentence, Wei Tao couldn't help frowning slightly.

When he looked at Yan Ling again, there was a hint of suspicion and scrutiny.

But after a while, he suddenly asked suspiciously, "This elder of Miss Yan's family doesn't sound like a person?"

Yan Ling raised her eyebrows, and her tone was inexplicably surprised, "You haven't heard of the Chishan Lingyu, and you don't know about Chishan Yan's family?"

Wei Tao replied, "I've been farming in the mountains before, and this is the first time I've even come here in Baifengcheng."

"I see."

Yan Ling picked up the teacup and took a sip, "The ancestor I'm talking about refers to the sacred tree located in the heart of the family."
