Lady Cultivator

In fact, Mo Tiange still missed some income in this calculation.

After they settled in. Qin Xi sent her another messenger, called her out, and went to Shanjiaofang City.

The two of them lived in the same courtyard and in adjacent rooms, but they had to use messenger talismans to deliver news, which left Mo Tiange speechless. Instead of knocking on the door, you can just whisper.

When he arrived at Fangshi and saw the bustling crowds and the monks coming in and out of the shops, Mo Tiange remembered that in terms of profit, this was the bulk. With so many monks, I don’t know how much business Tiandao Sect’s shops will do in the near future, and even other small shops will benefit a lot.

Both of them are alchemy monks. Although high-level monks from Tiandao Sect have come and gone recently, walking like this on the street still attracted everyone's attention. These low-level monks just looked at them from a distance, with envy and jealousy in their eyes.

"Senior Brother Shoujing, where are we going?" Although he has gradually become accustomed to this scene, Mo Tiange was not a genius in the spotlight from the beginning. Qin Xi was content in this scene. But she felt uncomfortable.

Qin Xi said: "Deal."

Mo Tiange was stunned: "Senior brother, what do you want to buy?"

Qin Xi didn't answer, and walked forward with his hands behind his back.

Mo Tiange was used to his temper of not answering if he didn't want to, so he didn't say anything and just followed silently.

After a while, the two of them entered a shop. Mo Tiange looked up and saw that by coincidence, it was the Baicaotang where she bought the alchemy furnace and materials when she first came to Tiandao Sect. Now she is more than sixty years old. Years ago, the old man who sold her alchemy furnace was probably already dead.

Looking back at the beginning, things were really different. At that time, her second uncle was not dead, and she was just a young Qi-refining monk. No one in Yuheng Mountain would take her seriously. Now she is a pill-forming monk, and everyone treats her with respect, but her second uncle will never come back.

After entering Baicao Hall, a waiter immediately came to greet me and greeted him very respectfully: "Welcome, seniors. Is there anything I can do for you, junior?"

Qin Xi did not answer, only said: "I'm looking for Hu Zonghai."

Hearing this, the waiter had a look of surprise on his face, but he immediately said: "You two, please sit inside for a while. I will go and report to you immediately. I don't know your senior's surname?"

"My surname is Qin."

The clerk led them into the side room and went to report them.

Mo Tiange was full of questions.

The old man she met here more than sixty years ago was from the Hu family. If she wanted to come to Baicao Hall, it was very likely that the Hu family would host it. If so, this Hu Zonghai must be a member of the Hu family. Qin Xi clearly stated that he wanted to find Hu Zonghai, could he be his old friend? This is not surprising. Master once said that in addition to practicing hard in seclusion, this senior brother also spends a lot of time traveling outside. He must have met many strange and strange people with different identities.

Not long after, the door to the wing was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in rich clothes came in. As soon as he entered the door, he looked at Qin Xi and greeted him warmly, talking and laughing loudly: "Brother Qin, it's really you! I haven't seen you for many years. How is everything?"

What surprised Mo Tiange was that this man only had foundation building cultivation.

When Qin Xi saw this person, he stood up and returned the courtesy. Compared with this person's warm attitude, he was much calmer, but it didn't make people feel rude: "Thank you, Brother Hu. I'm thinking about you. How are you?"

The two of them clearly have different cultivation levels, but they are peers.

After a few words of greeting, the man's eyes turned to Mo Tiange: "This is..."

Qin Xi said: "This is my junior sister. Her Taoist name is Qingwei."

"Oh, it turns out to be Master Qingwei!" The man suddenly realized and saluted very politely, "I, Hu Zonghai, have met Master Qingwei."

This Hu Zonghai is just a foundation-building monk. Under normal circumstances, there is no need for alchemy-building monks to return the favor. However, Qin Xi is his senior brother after all, and he is a friend of his own generation. Mo Tiange couldn't hold him back, so he stood up and raised his hand: "I have met fellow Daoist Hu."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Hu Zonghai said repeatedly, "Master Qingwei, please sit down, please sit down."

After the ceremony, Hu Zonghai enthusiastically asked people to serve tea again and invited them to visit Hu's house. Qin Xi pushed it, and Hu Zonghai didn't force it, so the two started chatting.

After all, there was a huge gap in cultivation. Although Hu Zonghai spoke to Qin Xi with the courtesy of an equal, his words were extremely polite. The topics they talked about were ordinary, nothing more than some common things they encountered, the news about the weakening of the Tianmo Mountain ban, and some cultivation issues.

Mo Tiange just listened silently and got a rough idea of ​​their relationship from their conversation.

When he met Hu Zonghai, Qin Xi was just a foundation-building monk, and they had shared the same friendship through thick and thin, so they are now friends of the same generation. Qin Xi is now almost two hundred years old, which is extremely young for a Pill Formation cultivator, but for a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he is middle-aged. In a few decades, he will enter old age. Hu Zonghai is actually about the same age as him, but due to the difference in cultivation, he looks much older than him.

The two talked for a while, and Hu Zonghai asked: "Brother Qin, you can come to our Tiandao Sect and ask someone to give you a verbal message. Now that you are here in person, what's the important matter?"

Although the two of them seemed to have a good relationship, they were not close friends. Qin Xi visited the house as soon as he arrived and brought others with him, obviously for other purposes.

Qin Xi smiled and said bluntly: "Brother Hu is right. I am visiting today to ask Brother Hu for help."

"Oh?" Hu Zonghai said with a sincere expression, "With our many years of friendship, Brother Qin just says what he has to say, and I will never refuse anything I do!"

Mo Tiange couldn't tell whether this was a polite word or not. Hu Zonghai was obviously different from monks like them. He is bold in speech but also slippery and sophisticated. He must be a person who is very good at dealing with people and the world.

Qin Xi had just a slight smile on his face. Hearing this, he said, "It's not a big deal. I'm just asking Brother Hu for news about two spiritual creatures."

Hearing these words, Mo Tiange's heart moved and he couldn't help but look at Qin Xi.

Surprise flashed across Hu Zonghai's face: "Oh? What kind of treasure is Brother Qin looking for? With the Xuanqing Sect's access, he didn't find it?"

Qin Xi smiled: "Since it can't be found, it is naturally extremely difficult to find."

Hu Zonghai laughed and said: "That's right, Brother Qin, let me tell you, although my cultivation level is not as good as mine. Finding people and things is still my strength, maybe I have heard of it."

Qin Xi was not polite and said: "What I am looking for are two things. One is chalcedony that is more than a thousand years old, and the other is Qiyun Stone. I wonder if Brother Hu has heard of it recently?"

Mo Tiange lowered his head, and it turned out to be these two things.

"Is this..." Hearing this, Hu Zonghai pondered for a moment, "What Brother Qin is looking for is indeed a rare thing. Thousand-year-old chalcedony is nothing more. I can occasionally hear about it, but I have been working for the sect for many years. I'm afraid I don't know anything about running a shop. However, I run Baicaotang, and the Qiyun Stone is used for refining weapons, so I still have to go and find out."

Qin Xi said: "Brother Hu, I would be very grateful if you could tell me his whereabouts."

Hu Zonghai smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just a piece of cake. Brother Qin, I can't guarantee this Qiyun Stone, but there seems to be news about another thousand-year-old chalcedony a few days ago. If you don't mind it, wait for me. Want to inquire more carefully?"

"That's very good. Thank you for your help, Brother Hu."

The two talked for a while, and Qin Xi took his leave. Hu Zonghai sent them out, asked them where they were staying temporarily, and told them that he would notify them of any news within three days at most.

After bidding farewell to Hu Zonghai, the two of them went back in silence.

Qin Xi didn't speak, and Mo Tiange also lowered his head, wandering all the way.

The mountain gate of Dazongmen is naturally extremely high, starting from the foot of the mountain. There are thousands of jade steps extending all the way to the clouds. Normally, only Qi Refining disciples who cannot fly can climb these jade steps. After building the foundation, they can only fly around. I don't know what Qin Xi was thinking, and he didn't use the flying magic weapon, so he just walked slowly step by step. Pianmo Tiange was very preoccupied. She just followed him with her head buried and didn't expect this.

While walking, the person in front of him suddenly stopped, and Mo Tiange bumped into him. His nose suddenly turned red. If it weren't for the protective spiritual energy, he would probably have nosebleeds.

Qin Xi turned his head and looked at her with a frown: "What are you thinking? Will you hit me like this?"

Mo Tiange looked embarrassed. Not to mention she was a pill-forming monk, even a young Qi-refining monk who had just entered the immortal way, she would not be stupid enough to bump into someone's back. It was obvious that she was completely in a state of fugue just now, and she did not react even though she bumped into someone.

Fortunately, Qin Xi didn't ask seriously. After saying this, he continued walking.

Mo Tiange touched his nose and continued to follow.

Looking at the back in front of her, she suddenly felt that this state seemed to be back to the time of the Yunwu Sect. At that time, I didn't spend much time with Senior Brother Qin, but it was almost like this every time. He would automatically and spontaneously walk in front to open the way, and she would just follow him.

Fast forward more than sixty years to almost seventy years. The two of them are no longer the young monks they were back then. Their status is very different, but the situation of getting along is still the same as before. At that time, they each had their own secrets, entered the Yunwu Sect, and called their senior brothers and sisters, but they were far away from each other. But now, they are real brothers and sisters, but they still keep their distance. Although they trust each other, they are not close to each other.

In fact, both Senior Brother Qin and Senior Brother Shoujing treated her extremely well. Senior Brother Qin was indifferent, but he always cared about his fellow students; Senior Brother Shoujing... seemed to be indifferent, but after careful calculation, she had a smooth journey, and it might not have been him who paved the way. Just like now, she just mentioned it, and he always remembered that when he arrived at Tiandao Sect, the first thing he had to do was to get information for her.

It is impossible to say that she is not grateful in her heart, but she has never been an extrovert. Even if she is grateful, she will only keep it in her heart.

"Senior Brother Shoujing." She suddenly stopped.

Qin Xi seemed to respond casually and walked a few more steps. When he realized that she was not following him, he stopped and turned around. He saw her standing five or six steps away from him, with her head lowered and her expression unclear.

After a while, she said: "Thank you very much."

It was a sentence without beginning or end, but he understood it.

After a moment of silence, he looked calm and replied: "It's a simple matter, no need to mention it again."

She still lowered her head but didn't respond.

He didn't speak either.

After an unknown amount of time, Mo Tiange said, "But... please, senior brother, please don't be so nice to me in the future."

…………

Qin Xi suddenly turned around and walked up two steps, then stopped and said coldly: "What are you worried about?"

Mo Tiange said nothing.

He turned his head, glanced over, and sneered: "Do you still think I'm greedy for something?"

Without waiting for her answer, he waved his long sleeves and sent out flying clouds. Suddenly, he flew up from the jade steps and climbed up to Yuheng Mountain without waiting for her for a moment.

Mo Tiange was left behind, looking at his back and swallowing the "no".

She just wanted to say, don't be so nice to her, so nice that it will make her think too much. It's not what he thought...

I’ll throw out one chapter first, and the subsequent updates will be later. ) Book friends, please pay attention!
