Eternal Tranquility

"Brother Liu, do you feel that there have been fewer monsters recently?" Mo Qianli asked.

Liu Qinghuan nodded: "It started to decrease half a month ago."

At this time, they were shuttled over a patch of water reeds, looking for traces of the monster beast.

"Half a month ago?" Mo Qianli scratched his head. He didn't feel anything before, but they didn't encounter a monster in the past two days, which was strange: "Were they all killed by our monks?"

"How is it possible!" Liu Qinghuan said: "If the number of monsters were only this small, the Qushang Swamp would not have existed for so many thousands of years. They probably retreated to the depths of the swamp or escaped to other places."

The monsters began to respond to the monks' large-scale cleanup, and it seemed that the situation in Qushang Swamp would change again.

Liu Qinghuan looked at the gray sky: "I think we should go back to Haoyuan City."

The two of them had been hunting monsters together for almost two months, and they were extremely tired. It was time to return to Haoyuan City to recuperate.

So he changed direction and ran all the way. If you encounter monsters on the road, deal with them easily; if they are difficult to fight, avoid them. After half a month, the two finally arrived outside Haoyuan City.

Mo Qianli said in surprise: "This wall is built so high!"

Standing in front of them was Haoyuan City's newly built city wall ten miles outside the city. It was now more than one foot high, and its width was an astonishing twenty or thirty feet!

However, they could only see a small section that was exposed, and the rest of the area was covered up by the magic circle so that nothing could be seen.

Liu Qinghuan looked carefully and found that every brick on the exposed city wall had some strange patterns.

The two passed through the gap left in the city wall, walked another ten miles, and entered Haoyuan City.

Liu Qinghuan said: "Let's go back to each sect's station first. We need to replenish the supplies and repair them for a few days."

"Well, when you're done, send me the message. I'll leave first." Mo Qianli waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the Xingyue Palace.

When Liu Qinghuan saw him walking away, he was also ready to reply to where he was stationed.

At this time, an uncertain voice came from the side: "But, is it Fellow Daoist Liu?"

Liu Qinghuan turned around and saw a monk with only the second level of Qi training standing not far from the city gate, looking at him hesitantly.

Liu Qinghuan identified him and saw that he was nearly middle-aged, with a trace of worry and exhaustion in his eyes, so he smiled and said, "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Wu."

The middle-aged monk came forward in surprise: "It's really you, Fellow Daoist Liu!"

The person who came was none other than Wu Tianyong. When the twelve-year-old Liu Qinghuan first arrived in Haoyuan City, he hired him as a guide for a day, and the two actually had a conversation.

Liu Qinghuan said: "Fellow Daoist Wu, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"

"Okay, okay." Wu Tianyong smiled with a smile on his face: "It's a coincidence. I told Chun Niu a few days ago that there are so many sect monks coming to Haoyuan City these days. I wonder if you can Come."

Liu Qinghuan cupped his hands and said: "I'm sorry, fellow Taoist, I'm sorry. I've been using the several magic weapons I bought from you for many years. Originally, I thought I'd come to you when I was free and buy two more magic weapons. I Remember, your father-in-law is an intermediate weapon refiner, right?"

Wu Tianyong glanced at him and was even more surprised: "Fellow Daoist Liu, have you successfully established the foundation?"

Fellow Daoist Liu smiled and nodded. Wu Tianyong congratulated him repeatedly and said with emotion: "Back then, I knew that Fellow Daoist would be extraordinary in the future! It's just..."

He was silent for a moment and then said: "My father-in-law passed away a year ago, and the few spiritual weapons he left behind have been almost sold, and there is only one left. If Fellow Daoist Liu wants it, come with me to see one. look?"

Liu Qinghuan thought that there was nothing important to do next, and said, "Then I'll have a hard time."

Wu Tianyong led the way, and the two chatted while walking.

Wu Tianyong said with emotion: "When I first met Fellow Daoist Liu, you were still a teenager. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and I am already old, but Fellow Daoist Liu is still in his prime."

Liu Qinghuan was also a little touched. The two chatted while walking through the streets and alleys of Haoyuan City. After a while, we arrived at the small shop from back then.

Compared with the past, the decoration in the store has not changed much except for a boy of about ten years old standing behind the counter, as if time has frozen the place.

Wu Tianyong pointed at the boy and said, "This is my eldest son, his name is Wu Jiabao. Jiabao, please call him Uncle Liu."

Wu Jiabao looked smart and clever. He quickly walked out from behind the counter and saluted in a decent manner: "My dear, meet Uncle Liu!"

Liu Qinghuan helped him up, pulled him and said, "I didn't expect Wu Daoyou's son to be so old."

He could see at a glance that the child had no spiritual roots. After thinking about it, he took out a jade pendant and put it in Wu Jiabao's hand: "It's our first time meeting, so I didn't prepare any gifts. If worn all year round, this piece of spiritual water jade can ward off evil spirits and eliminate cold." , promote blood circulation and nourish the body, you can play with it.”

Wu Tianyong was taken aback and quickly declined. Seeing that Liu Qinghuan really wanted to give it, Wu Jiabao asked Wu Jiabao to accept it and thanked him repeatedly.

"Jia Bao, where is your mother?"

"Mom is taking care of my sister in the room."

Wu Tianyong asked him to continue looking at the store, and while leading Liu Qinghuan to the small courtyard behind the store, he shouted: "Chun Niu, Chun Niu, look who I brought back!"

Liu Qinghuan walked into the small backyard and saw a middle-aged woman with a haggard look walking out of the side room of the main room. When she saw him, she was stunned for a moment, and then she shouted in surprise: "Master Liu!"

Wu Tianyong described the situation when he met Liu Qinghuan, and then said: "Go and prepare a table of good wine and food. Today I want to have a good drink with fellow Taoist Liu."

He turned to look at Liu Qinghuan: "Fellow Daoist Liu, would you be so kind as to have a drink with me?"

Liu Qinghuan smiled and said: "We should have a drink."

Chunniu happily agreed and went into the kitchen next to him.

Wu Tianyong let Liu Qinghuan into the main hall. He turned and went into the room on the right. After a while, he took out a box, opened it and put it on the table.

Liu Qinghuan looked inside and saw a jade pendant.

"This is a soul-blocking pendant, but it is not a spiritual weapon. It is a medium-grade magic weapon. It is the last thing my father-in-law made before he died. It can hide the spiritual power fluctuations of the cultivator himself, and it can also hide the true realm of cultivation. Even in front of someone who is two levels higher than you, the other party cannot see it."

Liu Qinghuan touched his chin. This is a good function: "How many spiritual stones do you need?"

Wu Tianyong said with difficulty: "This soul-blocking pendant is absolutely good in terms of function. But because the price is too high, it has never been sold. If fellow Daoist Liu wants it, give 20,000 spiritual stones."

20,000? This price is indeed high. The general magic weapon is only more than 10,000 spirit stones.

Liu Qinghuan only has about 7,000 or 8,000 spirit stones, but he has a lot of pills: "Daoyou, can you accept the pills? How about I give you 80% of the market price?"

Wu Tianyong's heart moved, and he nodded thoughtfully.

Pills are more popular than spirit stones as a substitute for spirit stones. Liu Qinghuan would not think that Wu Tianyong would have any objections, and he said 80% of the market price because he took into account that Wu Tianyong would sell them outside, which was also considered to be the most benevolent.

Liu Qinghuan first took out 8,000 spirit stones, and then took out five bottles of Peiyuan Pills. The market price of Peiyuan Pills is 150 low-grade spirit stones per pill, and 20% off is 120, and each bottle has 20 pills, which is just enough to make up 20,000 spirit stones.

Wu Tianyong took the pills and spirit stones, and his mouth moved a few times, with a complicated expression.

Liu Qinghuan glanced at him, and a ray of light flashed in his eyes.

At this time, Chunniu also brought out the wine and food one after another, and said with a smile: "Master Liu, the food is simple, I hope you can eat a little."

Liu Qinghuan sat down with Wu Tianyong and chatted while eating.

Wu Tianyong was very talkative. He knew Haoyuan City very well and had well-informed information from various channels. Liu Qinghuan wanted to know the movements in Haoyuan City since the cleaning of Qushang Swamp, but he got a lot of information from him that only local snakes could not know.

But Wu Tianyong seemed a little absent-minded and was absent-minded from time to time.

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of porcelain breaking in the side room of the main house.
