As the three of them looked nervous, Lu Xuan took out a handful of spirit stones from his sleeves and enthusiastically thrust them towards the mid-level Qi-training monk.
“Three fellow Taoists, it’s been too hard to check all the way here. There are a few spiritual stones here. It’s disrespectful. I would like to invite these three fellow Taoists to have a cup of spiritual tea.”
The most sincere and enthusiastic smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s face.
The leading mid-level qi-training monk couldn’t refuse, so he accepted it and gently weighed the spiritual stone in his hand. The experienced man instantly knew the approximate number, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Lu Xuan relaxed a little when he saw him accepting the spirit stone.
He did not want these three people to enter his spiritual field and see rare and precious spiritual plants such as sword grass and dark marrow mushroom, in case they would be coveted by others and cause trouble.
If he refuses with force, he is confident that with the same fifth level of Qi training, coupled with the first-grade special magic weapon Split Silver Blade, the second-grade Talisman Sword Qi Thousand Talisman and the Thunder Fire Bead, he can kill three people in an instant.
But he couldn’t bear the subsequent impact. After all, there were so many people around him that it was impossible to deal with the three of them unnoticed.
If this road is blocked, then the only option is bribery. Twenty spiritual stones can eliminate a possible disturbance, which is still acceptable.
With a fake smile on his face, he kept the three people, especially the leading mid-level Qi Practitioner, in his mind, and secretly determined to get back double the money if he had the chance.
The mid-level qi-training monk put all twenty spirit stones into his storage bag without leaving a trace. The two third-level qi-training monks next to him looked as normal, as if they had not seen it.
“I see that you, fellow Taoist, are talented and honest, and you will definitely not have anything to do with evil spirits. So, let my two men go through the motions and come into your yard for a casual look.”
The mid-level Qi training monk said to Lu Xuan with a smile.
Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, understanding the implication of his words, and suddenly there was an unknown anger in his heart.
“I have given you twenty spiritual stones. You can just swallow them alone. You want me to feed two more of your subordinates, so you are not afraid of filling your stomach?”
If he was just planning to regain his position just now, after the mid-level qi-training monk said this, Lu Xuan had a strong idea of killing the three people.
He led two third-level qi-training monks into the courtyard and gave each of them five spirit stones. They glanced at each other casually and left with satisfaction.
“My spirit stones are not so easy to earn.”
Lu Xuan followed the two of them out of the yard, looked at the two figures from behind, and sneered in his heart.
Just when the three of them were about to go to another courtyard, suddenly, Wang Shan walked out of his home.
My eyes lit up when I saw the middle-level qi-training monk.
“Senior Brother Tan, why are you here and why didn’t you come into the room to see me?”
The red-faced Wang Shan walked over with a smile.
“Isn’t there a mission requirement from above? Isn’t it busy with official business? There are endless evil figures in the city, so I have to come out and check more.
Junior brother Wang Shan, long time no see, your cultivation is much deeper. ”
The mid-level Qi training monk responded with a smile.
“I see, this fellow Daoist Lu is my neighbor. He loves cultivating spiritual plants. He is simple and honest. Senior Brother Tan, you are not making things difficult for him, are you?”
“How is that possible? Brother Lu is a very upright person at first glance, so it is naturally impossible for him to be involved with evil spirits.”
The middle-level qi-training monk surnamed Tan said without mentioning the fact that he had just bought twenty spiritual stones from Lu Xuan.
“It’s okay if you don’t have one. Let me introduce you to each other.”
“This is fellow Taoist Lu Xuan, a third-level Qi practitioner and a spiritual planter.”
“This Tan Xiaodong is the deacon in charge of security in Fang City. He has profound cultivation and has been on the fifth level of Qi training for many years. He is considered my senior brother.”
Wang Shan introduced each other’s identity to each other.
“I have admired you for a long time. Fellow Taoist Tan is selfless and dedicated to his responsibilities. It is a blessing for many monks in the city to be protected by such a highly skilled deacon.”
Lu Xuan Yin Yang Dao.
“Wang Shan, why didn’t you come out earlier? If you had come out earlier, I might have saved dozens of spiritual stones, and your senior brother’s life could have been saved.”
He couldn’t help but curse in his heart, regretting the thirty spiritual stones he had lost.
“Ouch~~!!”
In the yard, when Wang Shan came in, Cloud-Stepping Lynx, who had been staying quietly in the corner, suddenly growled.
“Quiet!”
Lu Xuan gently patted the gray hair on its pointed ears.
The cloud-riding lynx cub stared coldly at Wang Shan and the others with its green eyes. It stopped roaring and just kept baring its teeth.
A few people exchanged a few words, and then Wang Shan and Tan Xiaodong left together.
After the figures of several people disappeared, the cloud-walking lynx cub calmed down, regained its graceful posture, and jumped lightly, and four white clouds fell on Lu Xuan’s shoulders.
“Don’t scream randomly in the future, you know?”
Lu Xuan took it down, put it on the ground, and pulled the hair on the tip of its ears.
“Ouch~~~”
The blue-eyed cloud-walking lynx pinched its throat and tried its best to make a clipping sound.
“Huh?”
Lu Xuan suddenly noticed something was wrong.
He clearly remembered that when Wang Shan came in just now, the lynx cub’s cry was not as artificial as it is now, but rough and straightforward.
Except for the first time such a roar was made in front of him, this sound only appeared three times.
Twice was when Wang Shan entered his courtyard, and once was when he found an alienated monk in the market.
His expression instantly became grim. That time at the market, the lynx cub discovered something strange about the monk. Did he also discover something when he roared when he encountered Wang Shan twice?
“Did you find anything from that neighbor?”
Lu Xuan thought of the magical emerald green eyes of the Cloud-Stepping Lynx and asked it.
The Cloud-Stepping Lynx is a strange beast with a high level of intelligence. It stares at its round pupils and nods its little head.
“Same as the alienated monk in the market?”
Lu Xuan continued to ask. Find Shuyuan www.zhaosｈhuyuaｎ.com
The cub nodded first, then shook his head.
“What does it mean to nod and shake your head?”
“By the way, the time point when the monk in the market was alienated was after the many monks who cultivated the secret realm came back, and evil spirits broke out, and the lynx had roared to remind me when he saw Wang Shan before.”
“Nodding means that there is evil spirit or other abnormality in Wang Shan’s body, shaking his head means that he is different from the alienated monks in the market?”
Lu Xuan made a rough guess.
“There is such a time bomb around me. How should I deal with it properly? If soldiers come to block it, if water comes, the earth will cover it, or should I strike first?”
“Standing still would be too passive. You can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no way to guard against a thief for a thousand days.”
“But if I strike first, I don’t know if I can beat him.”
“If Wang Shan only has the strength of the fifth level of Qi training, he will be fine, and there is great hope. But with the unknown evil spirit in his body, it will be unpredictable.”
“Furthermore, Wang Shan is the little patrol leader in Fang City and has an official background, so it is easy to involve more.”
“What’s more important is that we still don’t know what evil and weird things may be behind him.”
Lu Xuan was caught in a dilemma for a moment, why not solve it? Living near Wangshan, I have to worry all the time, and it is unrealistic to move out. After all, I paid so much rent to rent this yard.
If it can be solved, it will easily put yourself at risk.
“Is there a safe and effective method?”
Lu Xuan pondered secretly.
“Yes, hasn’t Linyangfang City been vigorously cleaning up evil spirits recently? How about using this excuse to let them deal with it internally?”
“If you can’t beat me, I can report it!”
