Chapter 299: Perfect
That night, Xiao Mian was practicing peacefully in the courtyard of Jade Hoe Ancestor.
It's just that the results of the practice are very little. On the one hand, the time is too short, and more importantly, every time he runs the "Sanqing Bible" for a week, although Xiao Mian can feel the new infuriating energy, those infuriating energy cannot It was used by Xiao Mian, but in the end it was all wasted, as if Xiao Mian's body could no longer hold any more Qi.
Xiao Mian knew that he had reached the final bottleneck of the foundation building period!
Once Xiao Mian can cross this threshold, he can successfully form the elixir and become a powerful golden elixir!
It's just that the bottleneck is so mysterious that even Xiao Mian, who is in the Sanqing Guiyuan Ti, can't figure out the mystery. According to Guitou, it means that the time has not come yet.
In the early morning of the next day, Guitou once again encouraged Xiao Mian to leave the courtyard, saying that going out for a walk would be more conducive to breaking through the bottleneck. How could Xiao Mian not know that Guitou was concerned about the spiritual consciousness of the Jade Hoe Ancestor, so since Xiao Mian entered Wanzong City, Guitou has always kept to himself and rarely contacted Xiao Mian, which made Xiao Mian feel a little uncomfortable.
As a follower of good deeds, Xiao Mian complained to the Jade Hoe Ancestor and went out with Ding Kaishan.
"Where are we going today?"
"Is there a place in Wanzong City that specially prepares wedding utensils for wealthy families or famous families?" Xiao Mian did not intend to hide Ding Kaishan. Ding Kaishan was also a rough and refined person. After hearing Xiao Mian's words, he knew that Xiao Mian Ding Kaishan rolled his eyes and clapped his hands and chuckled: "You kid, you are really a ghost! Not to mention, there really is such a handicraft workshop in Wanzong City that specializes in making all kinds of Chinese clothes!"
"Including wedding clothes, right?"
"That's natural!"
"In that case, how about our brothers also going to see the beautiful clothes?"
"Haha, that's great! Although I, Old Ding, are a bit ugly, but as the saying goes, a person is judged by his clothes, maybe even if I put on a white suit, I'd be a pretty boy too!"
"..., this is probably a bit difficult!"
While laughing and joking, the two walked away.
Half an hour later, the most prosperous Tianmen area in Wanzong City.
Ding Kaishan took Xiao Mian to a shop with a grand facade. Xiao Mian looked up and saw a gold plaque hanging on the lintel, with three words on it - Tianyi Pavilion!
Nodding, Xiao Mian walked into Tianyi Pavilion first.
"Fellow Taoist, are you coming to my Tianyi Pavilion to buy ready-made clothes, or do you want to tailor-made Chinese clothes?" As soon as Xiao Miancai entered the Tianyi Pavilion, a well-behaved young monk came forward and smiled sweetly. Then he asked Xiao Mian why he came. Xiao Mian turned around and saw that the girl's cultivation level was not bad at all. At least she was at the high level of the Foundation Establishment Stage. She couldn't help but be a little suspicious. Could it be that Tianyi Pavilion was so wealthy that it could allow high-level monks of the Foundation Establishment Stage to come as a welcome door? child? Although he was suspicious, Xiao Mian's face showed nothing strange. He nodded and said calmly: "Take a look! Take a look first..."
The girl frowned slightly, looking a little disappointed, but she quickly stepped back with a smile, giving Xiao Mian enough space.
After that, Xiao Mian and Ding Kaishan pretended to look around in Tianyi Pavilion, occasionally whispering to each other. During this period, through Ding Kaishan's explanation, Xiao Mian realized that the girl who greeted the guests before was not affiliated with Tianyi Pavilion, but was employed by Tianyi Pavilion.
There are countless casual cultivators in Wan Zongyuan, and many of them have to do some work due to financial constraints or other reasons to earn spiritual stones or other spiritual materials to support their daily cultivation. The girl just now is one of thousands of migrant workers. a member of.
After learning about this, Xiao Mian looked at the girl without any trace, and his heart moved slightly.
Suddenly, Ding Kaishan stopped and muttered loudly to himself.
"This Tianyi Pavilion is not very good! The styles I see are just old ones, nothing new. Brother, you don't know, I met the eldest son of the Bai family at the Yishouliu station a few days ago. He was dressed in white. , that’s called being elegant! If I can wear that white dress, maybe I can also..." Just as Ding Kaishan said this, the girl who had greeted Xiao Mian before came forward and whispered: "This Fellow Taoist, you don’t know, but the splendid clothes of the eldest son of the Bai family are specially made by our Tianyi Pavilion. If you, the Taoist, want a set, that’s fine, but the cost..."
"Oh? Mr. Bai's fine clothes were custom-made at your place?"
Xiao Mian was stunned when he spoke, as if he didn't believe it. As a result, the girl nodded even more vigorously to introduce. Seeing that the two of them were doubtful, they finally revealed a piece of news: the wedding dress used by the young master of the Bai family on his wedding was also theirs. Customized!
Xiao Mian raised his eyebrows, as if he believed what the girl said.
"Since your pavilion can make fine clothes and wedding clothes for Mr. Bai's wedding, I think the workmanship and material selection are all meticulous, so I can rest assured!" As he spoke, Xiao Mian took out a small bag of spiritual stone throws. Give it to the girl. After the girl opened it and saw it clearly, Xiao Mian chuckled and said, "These can be considered as deposits!"
"This...these spiritual stones are enough to order two sets of gorgeous clothes..."
The girl originally thought that the payment was for custom-made clothes, but she didn't expect that it was just a deposit. She couldn't help but start to re-examine the two idiots in front of her.
wrong!
In the girl's mind, Xiao Mian and Ding Kaishan were no longer Tu Mao, but Tu Mao with rich gold and spirit - the best Tu Mao!
According to the employment contract between the girl and Tianyi Pavilion, if both Xiao Mian and Xiao Mian order a set of gorgeous clothes with the same specifications as Bai Jintang in Tianyi Pavilion, she can get a valuable amount of spiritual stones, enough for her to practice with peace of mind. It’s time to reach the top level of the foundation building stage.
At that time, the girl can accept some more difficult tasks without having to come to Tianyi Pavilion every day to be a welcome maid, and she will be looked down upon or even molested.
But at this moment, a large box was brought out from the back hall of Tianyi Pavilion. Xiao Mian and the others did not know why, so they retreated away. But the girl's eyes flashed, as if she remembered something important. After the big box was carried out, a more enthusiastic smile appeared on the girl's face, but she had her own wishful thinking in her heart.
"Do you two fellow Taoists know what was carried out just now?"
"I haven't practiced clairvoyance, how can I know? But if such a big box is full of clothes, I'm afraid it can hold a hundred and eighty items, right?" When he saw the girl smiling mysteriously, Xiao Mian's heart moved. Following the girl's words, he asked: "I'm also wondering, who is so generous and customized so many exquisite clothes at once? If it is convenient, can you tell me next time, fellow Taoist?"
"Convenient! Of course it's convenient! This fellow Taoist must be visiting Wanzong City for the first time, right? No wonder he's so nervous! In fact, it's not a big deal. What's in that big box is the custom-made Hua Zong by Bai Jintang, the eldest son of the Bai family. "I'm convinced." Seeing Xiao Mian and Ding Kaishan being stunned when he said this, the girl laughed happily and explained: "Most of the casual cultivators in Wanzong City don't know that Bai Jintang, the eldest son of the Bai family, has a quirk, which is that he must do it every day. You need to take a bath with incense, and then change into new clothes. It is said that Mr. Bai never wears old clothes, so he often makes big orders at our Lord Tianyi!"
"Is this happening?"
"Huh! The clothes are really not as good as new!"
After hearing the girl's explanation, even Xiao Mian and Ding Kaishan couldn't help but look at each other.
"Isn't it! Although it is a bit wasteful, clothes are always new. Two Taoist friends, I think you are both worthy and face-saving people. Do you want to customize a few more sets of Chinese clothes? If the quantity is larger, I will I can even give you a discount!”
"... Let's think about this again!" At this point, Xiao Mian finally understood why the other party was so enthusiastic all of a sudden. Did he really think that he was a fool? Although his heart was a little gloomy, Xiao Mian narrowed his eyes slightly, but still agreed to make two more sets of gorgeous clothes as backup. While the girl was in high spirits, as if carelessly, Xiao Mian changed the topic and asked calmly: "By the way, I heard that Bai The young master is getting married soon, which is a major event for the entire Wanzong City. Have you taken away the bride's wedding clothes as well? "
"The bride's wedding dress? Hey! Forget it! It's not finished yet!"
"How could it be!? Isn't it rumored that Mr. Bai's wedding date is not the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month? Although it's still some time away, it's not that far away. Why haven't you prepared the wedding dress yet? Is it possible that the workmanship of your Tianyi Pavilion is so slow? Really? If that's the case, then I'll have to reconsider whether I want to customize the wedding dress from you..." Xiao Mian's words made the girl feel nervous, and she hurriedly explained: "No! No, the wedding dress isn't there yet! The reason for the completion is not because of my Tianyi Pavilion, but because the bride is always picky about the pattern of her wedding dress and insists on showing off a duckweed flower on her wedding dress. This is unlucky! "
Duckweed flower has an unlucky meaning.
But at this moment, Xiao Mian suddenly had an idea come to his mind.
"There is no duckweed embroidery pattern suitable for the huge Tianyi Pavilion?"
"Of course there are beautiful duckweed flowers, but fellow Taoist, have you ever heard of anyone who embroidered duckweed flowers on embroidered clothes? What's more, our master from Tianyi Pavilion has also made several embroidery samples for The future eldest young lady of the Bai family has read it, but she is not very satisfied. Seeing that the wedding is approaching, everyone in Tianyi Pavilion is worried..." Before the girl could finish her words, Xiao Mian had already taken out a sachet and put the incense in it. Xiao Mian waved the bag toward the girl, and after catching her attention, Xiao Mian asked, "How do you like this duckweed flower?"
For a moment, not to mention the girl, even Ding Kaishan who was traveling with him was a little unable to react...
