Mind Cultivation Record

Chapter 595: Raising the price while sitting on the ground

The next day, Wang Li visited Xiao Mian again.

Making an excuse, Wang Li mentioned Wang Ping's matter, but before Wang Li could say anything more, Xiao Mian took over.

"Speaking of which, Xiao was able to sneak into Xianyang City so easily. I have to thank Brother Wang Ping for his help that day!"

"Oh? Why did Brother Xiao say this?"

At that moment, Xiao Mian recounted what happened in Yangguan that day.

"Is this happening? I'm ashamed to say it! When Brother Xiao rescued Li that day, Li was in a restless mood. In addition, although the desolate area outside Yangguan is also under the jurisdiction of Zhongzhou, it lacks spiritual energy and is not suitable for constructing the Zhoutian Xingxiu Grand. If you don't pay attention, it's really difficult to discover the identity of the foreign monks!" At this point, Wang Li looked at Xiao Mian and asked: "There's just one thing Li doesn't understand: Brother Xiao is originally from Zhongzhou Tiandu City, why would he do this? He was screened out by the Zhoutian Xingxu Formation and mistakenly judged as a foreign monk? "

"It's a long story! I was originally from Tiandu City. Because I had to complete a secret sect mission, I didn't hesitate to go to Western Shu Prefecture. It's just that this mission involved Saint Ananda, who is known as the number one person in Western Shu Prefecture. Monk, if the old holy monk knew my identity as a monk in Zhongzhou, he would inevitably have some taboos in my behavior. Therefore, before leaving, my sect master did not hesitate to change his destiny and remove my identity from the Zhoutian Xingxu Formation. Take it out!"

"How high is your sect, that you have such heaven-defying magical powers?"

"Brother Wang is joking! This is just a trivial trick at best. What kind of magical power is it? It's just a special situation, so I used it. Let me ask you and I, Zhongzhou monks, are unlikely to leave Zhongzhou in our lives, so we have to use it unexpectedly. This secret technique requires countless spiritual materials. If it is not necessary, it is really not worth the gain!"

"Oh! That's true! But according to what Brother Xiao means, could it be the Array Spirit from Yangguan who restored Brother Xiao's original identity?"

"That's right! If it weren't for that array of spiritual beings, Mr. Xiao would probably have to wear the hat of a foreign monk and rush back to Tiandu City like a rat crossing the street!"

"I see!"

"I have to thank Brother Wang Ping for this!"

"This..., it's not urgent!" With a roll of his eyes, Wang Li hesitated, and finally whispered: "Brother Xiao and Li hit it off as soon as they met. There are some things Li has hidden in his heart that he really doesn't want to say. My classmate My brother Wang Ping is not a direct descendant of the Wang family, but the son of my third uncle Wang Tong. Therefore, he is not qualified to succeed the head of the Wang family. It is natural for Brother Xiao to express his gratitude to Wang Ping, but Wang Ping is not with me on weekdays. My eldest brother, Wang Yong, is quite close. I am not afraid of them plotting against Brother Xiao, but I am afraid that they will stir up trouble! Brother Xiao doesn’t know, right? My eldest brother suspects that Brother Xiao is a foreign monk!”

"Hmph! Mr. Xiao is upright and not afraid of his shadow being distorted. Could it be that because of Wang Yong's suspicion, Mr. Xiao is a foreign monk? Since Brother Wang is not very close to those two people, Mr. Xiao will not see Wang Ping. I just ask Brother Wang to give your suspicious elder brother a message: If he suspects that I, Xiao Wuming, am a foreign monk, he can bring a golden light mirror to my Cedar Residence. Of course, he can also bring someone higher level! "

"Brother Xiao, please don't get angry! My eldest brother has always been jealous of talents. I know this. Not to mention you as an outsider, even my brother has been ostracized by him."

"It's not pleasant to say this! Brother Wang came here today. Why?"

"This... I wonder how long it will take Brother Xiao to practice hard before he can take action again?"

"As little as three days, as long as nine days, what? What happened?"

"It's not that abominable Ji family! Brother Xiao's previous feat caused the reputation of the Ji family practice inn to plummet. The Ji family immediately adopted a price reduction strategy. At the same time, they also lowered the fee standards of the newly opened restaurants and restaurants. It was clearly stated It’s for my Wang family.”

"This is inevitable. Talking about business in business is the way of conspiracy."

"Who says otherwise! Even if they knew the Ji family's wild ambitions, the Wang family could only continue. It's just..., hey! I'm not afraid of Brother Xiao's jokes if I say it! It's just that the Wang family hastily accepted the challenge, and the reserves of spiritual stones and spiritual materials are not enough. In addition, the entire Wang family has been Regarding my grandfather's 600th birthday, it is inevitable that there will be some... Brother Xiao, do you understand?"

"I understand! Let's do it tomorrow! Tomorrow, I will take action again and let the Ji family lose another city!" With that said, seeing Wang Li acting grateful, Xiao Mian said calmly before he could speak: "But the reward is another matter!"

Wang Li was stunned when he heard this, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason...

"What? Double the reward!?"

"Brother Wang! If it weren't for your sake, even if it were doubled, Xiao wouldn't be too lazy to take action! If Xiao's sect master knew that I actually used the sect's secret technique for a mere mid-grade spiritual stone, Brother Wang , that can’t be solved by spiritual stones!”

"this……"

"What? Brother Wang thinks that I am interested in that mere 200,000 yuan for the spirit? Brother Wang, don't forget: not long ago, brother Wang personally sent me a million dollars for the spirit. What do you think? , does Xiao look like someone who lacks spiritual stones?"

"No! Of course not! With Brother Xiao's identity and ability, the One Hundred Thousand Spirits is indeed a little less. Besides, my father also said that he should not treat Brother Xiao badly. In this case, Li made his own decision, agreed to Brother Xiao's request, and returned the favor. I hope Brother Xiao will win!"

"Wait! Brother Wang, did you forget something?"

"Oh? Brother Xiao is talking about..." Wang Li just said this. Xiao Mian had already handed over a jade slip. After Wang Li took it, he looked at it with his spiritual thoughts, his face changed slightly, and he heard Xiao Mian's calm words: " Even if the Ji family is prepared, Xiao is still 80 or 90% sure that another accident will happen to the Ji family's practice inn. However, if the spiritual materials prepared by the Wang family are of too low a grade, Xiao's confidence will plummet! "

"..., Li understands!"

Although it was a bit disdainful for Xiao Mian to sit down and raise the price, what Xiao Mian said was not unreasonable. Wang Li had to repeat his old trick and once again used the Yin and Yang Jade Shell to teleport the jade slip.

Not long after, Wang Nuo sent in a storage bag again.

After rolling up the storage bag, Xiao Mian didn't say anything else. He just looked at Wang Li with a smile.

Wang Li was stunned and left knowingly.

But in comparison, Wang Li looked uncertain at this time.

The spiritual materials recorded on the jade slips given by Xiao Mian before were all fifth-level spiritual materials. Although the quantity was not large, the total value was not much lower than the 200,000-yuan spirit material. This was not even a king. As far as he was concerned, after all, even if he lost 400,000 yuan, his Wang family could still afford it.

The question is, what about next time?

Next time, will Brother Xiao ask for double the reward?

At this time, Wang Li regretted his previous smart move!

The next night, something happened again at the Jijia Xiuxian Inn.

The same white beam of light pierced the night sky, the same one hit the restricted space, and the same one attracted the Nascent Souls of the four Nascent Soul Ancestors!

The only difference may be that the practice inn where the incident happened this time was not the Beisai Mansion under the supervision of the Wang family, but the Xizhai Mansion under the supervision of the Lu family!

Although the formation master arranged by the Ji family here was not able to prevent the accident, he sensed the change in the spiritual formation at the first time, thus triggering the summons and warning ban. The alarm bell rang, first attracting Ji Beiyuan, who was waiting for the formation.

Even so, Ji Beiyuan could not contain the white beam of light.

Just because that white beam of light was the condensed spiritual energy of all the spiritual formations in the Ji family's practice inn, even Ji Beiyuan, the ancestor of Yuanying, did not dare to go against it.

However, Ji Beiyuan saw the entire accident happen more directly. Seeing the white beam of light rushing towards the forbidden air barrier, Ji Beiyuan did not smash the beam of light impatiently like the previous time. Instead, he stood aside and watched patiently, thoughtfully.

When the Nascent Soul Ancestors from the other three families gathered here, the white beam of light dissipated on its own.

really!

With a secret resentment, Ji Beiyuan didn't even think of saying hello to the other three, let alone entering the practice inn to check. Instead, he galloped towards the east.

The Eastern Sky is where the Dongyong Mansion is under the supervision of the Guiji family!

Wang Tong and the other three, who were one step late, looked at each other in confusion.

However, judging from the scene, the power of the white light beam this time was slightly weaker than before, and because the Ji family had been prepared, the damage to the practice inn was not great, and the surrounding monks had already received the warning signal from the practice inn. , and did not cause major changes.

Seeing that even the landowner Ji Beiyuan had disappeared, Wang Tong, Lu Chonggui and Qin Qiuming discussed in a low voice before leaving.

Talking back to Xiao Mian, Xiao Mian left the practice inn long before the formation masters of the Ji family noticed the changes in the spiritual formation - with the magic power of black cloth, he was able to delay the modification of the spiritual formation for a period of time, and then at a specific time The moment starts with a bang.

This allowed Xiao Mian to get away with it and even hid in the crowd to peek.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Xiao Mian returned to the recruitment hall.

The next day, Wang Li once again handed over 200,000 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones.

However, Wang Li did not come to visit for several days in a row, which made Xiao Mian feel suspicious even when he was free.

Just when Xiao Mian was suspicious, Wang Li came to visit again, but this time it was not only Wang Li who came back, but also Wang Li's eldest brother Wang Yong and another old man named Gu.

After seeing the ceremony, Xiao Mian found out that the old man named Gu Zong was a formation master!

Formation master?

snort! No wonder!

Obviously, the Wang family did not intend to hang Xiao Mian on a tree. After the Ji family's attack, although Xiao Mian was ordered to do so, the Wang family did not stop spending heavily to find a high-level formation master, especially Xiao Mian's last time. Sitting on the ground and raising the price made the Wang family feel dissatisfied with Xiao Mian. This time, they approached an old man named Gu to test Xiao Mian.

Whatever!

I was worried that I had no excuse to retreat, but this old man came at just the right time!

After thinking about it, Xiao Mian became more enthusiastic about Gu Zong for no reason.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yong and Wang Li came here to provoke Xiao Mian. Of course, they also wanted to use Xiao Mian to take the exam for Gu Zong. After all, they knew Xiao Mian's ability. If Gu Zong could compete with Xiao Mian, Trying to compete is naturally the best.

Because of this, Wang Li and Wang Yong continued to provoke the two of them back and forth.

The two brothers blindly praised Xiao Mian, saying how young and promising he was, how he was unique in formations, how open-minded he was, and how he easily earned a large amount of spiritual stones...

Xiao Mian said nothing, half-smiling but not smiling.

Gu Zong's expression darkened, and he gradually became displeased. When he heard that Xiao Mian had made nearly one million souls in two moves, his greedy expression flashed past.

"This fellow Taoist Xiao is invited! I don't know what sect Xiao Daoyou is from. Has he ever obtained the jade order to qualify as a formation master?" As he spoke, Gu Zong took out a jade order from his arms seemingly casually and waved it towards Xiao Mian. shake. Xiao Mian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm just an idle monk, how can I learn from him? As for the qualifications of this formation master, what's the use of taking the test? It doesn't matter if I don't take the test! It doesn't matter if I don't take the test! But it's embarrassing to say that I don't know how to care. Senior, can you give me this gift of qualifications to open my eyes?"

"Hmph! What a shameless statement! Is it so easy to obtain the Jade Order of Qualification of Master of Formation? I don't think Fellow Daoist Xiao is disdainful, but you can't do it?" Even so, Gu Zong still generously threw the Jade Order of Qualification to Xiao Mian , and at the same time winked at Wang Yong and Wang Li who were standing aside, which clearly meant that this kid had never even seen the qualification jade order of a formation master, so what else could he do if he wasn't a swindler? At the same time, Gu Zong was unforgiving: "Pay it back to me as soon as you watch! Even a so-called formation master with a wild background like you can cheat, and the Ji family is nothing more than that!"

"Mr. Gu, I think you are quite old. You are not enjoying family happiness at home, but you are here to stir up such chaos. Aren't you afraid that your life will be ruined?" As he spoke, Xiao Mian returned the qualification jade order to Gu Zong. , Gu Zong took it carelessly and smiled contemptuously: "You don't have to worry about it now, junior! I have agreed to the Wang family's request to help them teach the Ji family a lesson, just wait and see me show off my skills! "

After saying that, Gu Zong walked out of Xuesong Residence, minding his own business.
