Chapter 548: Three Articles of Agreement

The neon gauze is transparent, and the hibiscus tent is warm.

Seeing the boudoir that is so different from the cellar, Xiao Mian doesn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Although he doesn't want to stay in the dark and closed cellar for a long time, he didn't say that he would be placed in this embroidery room that is obviously a girl's boudoir...

Since you are here, you should make the best of it.

From the beginning, Xiao Mian came to Hongyun Cave with this mentality.

But before Xiao Mian could rest for a while, Su Zhi came to the door again.

"Now, can we have a good talk?"

"I really didn't expect Miss Su Zhi to be such an impatient person!" The gold chain on Xiao Mian's body had been taken off long ago, although it was useless at all. In conjunction, perhaps to show the sincerity of cooperation, Su Zhi returned all of Xiao Mian's things to him - of course, it may also be that Su Zhi didn't like those junk at all. Even so, Xiao Mian still deliberately made things difficult: "I was locked up in the cellar for a night, and I always feel that my body stinks. Miss Suzhi, do you mind if I wash up first?"

"Of course!"

Despite saying this, Suzhi had no intention of retreating at all.

"What? Miss Su Zhi wants to watch me wash?"

"Hehe..., if you need it, Su Zhi can help you wash!"

"No thanks!" Rolling his eyes, Xiao Mian naturally didn't really want to wash, and took the spiritual tea on the table and drank a full cup. Xiao Mian said unhappily: "It's okay for me to take the risk to get the peach tree roots, but I have three conditions!"

"You! You tell me!"

"First, I want a detailed map of the entire Red Cloud Cave within a radius of a thousand miles, preferably with the forces and precautions marked on it!"

"No problem! In the entire Red Cloud Mountains, there is only one decent force in the Red Cloud Cave. My eldest sister Yizhihong and I are high-level Jindan cultivators. The other three sisters - Haitang, Platycodon and Hemerocallis, should not pose a threat to you, right? As for other places, although there are a few Jindan cultivators, they are all lingering and not worth mentioning!"

As she spoke, Su Zhi handed a jade slip to Xiao Mian.

Obviously, she also came prepared.

Xiao Mian reached out to take the jade slip. It was only then that he knew that the red-dressed woman was named Haitang and the blue-dressed woman was named Jiejing. It was true that the clothes reflected the person and the person reflected the name.

"Second, Miss Suzhi seems to be an extremely skilled poison maker? I need some high-grade poisons, preferably above the seventh grade! Of course, I won't let Miss Suzhi give them to me for free. If the quality is good, I am willing to purchase or exchange them at a higher price than the market price!"

"Poisons above the seventh grade!?" After a slight pause, it was obvious that even Liu Suzhi, who came prepared, did not expect Xiao Mian to make such a request. However, soon, her jade face turned cold and she sneered: "Humph! Fellow Daoist Xiao has a big appetite!"

"What?"

"If I had a seventh-grade poison, I would have fallen the day before yesterday. In that amber light, I would have poisoned you to death long ago!"

"Hehe..., why did Miss Suzhi lie to me? Amber light is only a sixth-level spirit wine, how can it carry poisons above the sixth level? Even if the seventh-level poison is not poisoned by the amber light, it is enough for people to notice something strange at a glance, right?"

"I don't have a seventh-level poison!"

"Where is the tail feather of the purple-feathered green-winged jinn?"

"It's only the sixth level..."

"Sixth level is fine! As long as Miss Suzhi is willing to give it up!"

"You!"

It was not until this time that Suzhi realized that she had fallen into Xiao Mian's retreat strategy.

From the beginning, Xiao Mian's goal was Suzhi's purple-feathered green-winged jinn tail feather. After all, although that thing was not a seventh-level poison, it was also a sixth-level top-grade poison.

Besides, Suzhi had already used it once, so it was impossible to deny it even if she wanted to!

"Humph! It turns out that Fellow Daoist Xiao has long been eyeing Su Zhi's meager fortune! Although the tail feathers of the purple-feathered green-winged jinn are not a seventh-level poison, they are also one of the best among all sixth-level poisons. I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Xiao doesn't have such a big appetite!"

"Now Xiao really doesn't have the ability to buy that tail feather, but this deal between you and me must be done after I get the peach tree roots back, right?"

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Xiao thinks that you can get rich by getting the peach tree roots back?"

"Who knows? It's not that Xiao hasn't made windfalls before. I'm just asking you now: What do you want me to give up that tail feather? "

"Three hundred thousand middle spirits!"

"Miss Suzhi, can you please show some sincerity?" Xiao Mian heard this and sneered with a rather unhappy face: "A primary magic weapon is only worth two hundred thousand middle spirits. No matter how precious the sixth-level poison is, it is not a Yuanying-level spiritual material! At best, it is only worth the same as a primary magic weapon!"

"..., are you an outsider cultivator?"

Facing Xiao Mian's cold snort, Suzhi not only did not refute, but doubted Xiao Mian's identity, which made Xiao Mian stunned and alert to something.

Back then, in Wanzong City, the transaction price of a primary magic weapon was only one hundred thousand middle spirits, but in Fuyun Dou City, a primary magic weapon of the same quality could be sold for two hundred thousand middle spirits. Now it seems that the price of goods in Zhongzhou is probably much more than that!

"Two hundred thousand middle spirits, it's good enough to buy half of a primary magic weapon! A meticulous person like Xiao Daoyou shouldn't make such a low-level mistake, unless you are not a native cultivator of Zhongzhou - where are you from? West Shuzhou or North Demon Province?"

"Can I say Nanyuezhou?"

"Nanyue Prefecture?" Suzhi was stunned again when he heard this. It seemed that he had never thought of this possibility. He snorted impatiently: "Young Daoist Xiao, don't be joking! How could there be such a method as Daoist Fellow Xiao in the barbaric land of Nanyue Prefecture?" A stunning person with both body and mind?”

Xiao Mian was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Nanyue Prefecture and the Nanyue Prefecture monks would be so unbearable in the eyes of the Zhongzhou monks - a barbaric land?

snort!

One day, I want to let you, the proud sons of heaven, know that that barbaric land is not without merit. At least, it is my hometown!

Xiao Mian secretly made a wish, but Xiao Mian had a plan in mind.

"That's right! I am indeed a monk from Xishu Province!" As he spoke, the Buddha's light suddenly appeared on Xiao Mian's body, and the five-spirit golden bell loomed. Just when Su Zhi's face changed slightly, Xiao Mian said inscrutably: "I am He is a lay disciple of Baima Temple in Western Shuzhou!"

"White Horse Temple? A lay disciple?"

"It's a Buddhist monk with hair!"

"You are actually a Buddhist cultivator? No wonder your physical training skills are so powerful..." After thinking about it, Su Zhi believed Xiao Mian's nonsense. After all, she had also met a great Buddhist monk, Xiao Mian. The Buddhist light emanating from Mian's body is indeed pure Buddhist light. Ordinary monks can't fake it at all, let alone the demon cultivators in Northern Weizhou. After pondering for a moment, Su Zhi chuckled and said, "What use does a Buddhist cultivator need poison?"

"The sword can kill, but it can also save people; poison can kill, but it can also heal people!"

"Who can the purple-winged bird's tail feathers save?"

"Amitabha! Buddha said: Don't say it! Don't say it!"

Since he pretended to be a lay disciple of Baima Temple, Xiao Mian simply pretended to be a disciple to the end.

As a result, Su Zhi had nothing to do with him.

"It's not impossible if you want the tail feathers of the Purple-Feathered Bi-winged Bird. The price is three hundred thousand souls! If you want it, you can take it, but if you don't, let's forget it!"

"This matter is not urgent, let's put it aside for now! Let's talk about the third request first!"

"Fellow Taoist Xiao, please be careful. Suzhi's patience is limited. If you continue to be stubborn and make unrealistic demands on me, I don't care whether you are a Buddhist cultivator at White Horse Temple or not! That's the spiritual monk. I can’t protect you at all!”

"Brother Benchu? Have you met senior brother Benchu?"

"I haven't seen it! But I heard that the three outstanding Buddhist talents in Xishu Prefecture entered Yangguan a few days ago. They said they were traveling around the world, but they seemed to have something urgent to do."

"That's right! My third request is related to this matter! Senior Brother Benchu ​​and two senior brothers Na Chanyin and Huijing said they were traveling around the world, but in fact they were looking for someone who was crucial to Buddhism. People—the next generation of Buddhist protectors!”

"Oh? Is this happening?"

At that moment, Xiao Mian told Tuoba Lan half truthfully and half falsely.

From the young holy monk Kasyapa observing the precepts, to the selection of Tuobalan as the next generation of Buddhist protector, to how Tuobalan understood the magical powers of Buddhism, how he traveled eastward, slaying demons, and finally was intercepted by the Northern Demon Wei Changtian. Killed, whereabouts unknown, life or death unknown.

The false and the false, the true and the false, add fuel and vinegar, add branches and leaves.

"Having said so much, Miss Suzhi should know what my third request is, right? Yes! I hope that Miss Suzhi can mobilize all the power that can be mobilized, and to the extent possible, help me find the Tuoba The whereabouts of Lan! If we can find the benefactor of Tuoba Lan, not to mention the peach tree roots, the peach tree heart will be easy to find!"

"Ha! Fellow Daoist Xiao is very loyal to Baima Temple!" While teasing, Suzhi couldn't see through the flaws in Xiao Mian's words, but she couldn't blame her. In fact, Xiao Mian's level of lying has reached the level of proficiency. True or false, it’s hard to guard against it! Since she couldn't see through Xiao Mian's background, Su Zhi simply cut through the mess: "Okay! Looking for the Buddhist protector Tuoba Lan, I will deal with it as soon as possible, but the roots of the nine-bend peach tree, when will Xiao Daoyou plan to "Fetch it for me?"

"It won't be too late, naturally the sooner the better!"

"Is it possible that Fellow Daoist Xiao plans to leave now?"

"Why not!? What? Is it that Miss Suzhi is afraid that Mr. Xiao will never come back?"

"That's not the case! A shrewd person like Xiao Daoyou shouldn't put his own life and death at risk, right?" Su Zhi's words made Xiao Mian stunned, and then Su Zhi smiled brightly: "My purple feather bi root The reason why I dared to ask for 300,000 yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones for the tail feathers of the winged bird is because the tail feathers of the winged bird were poisonous. If you can't take my secret antidote, I'm afraid you will have to endure the pain of a split brain for the rest of your life..."

"You! You are too insidious!"

"First a villain, then a gentleman! Suzhi promises: As long as Fellow Daoist Xiao helps me get a piece of the root of the Nine-bend Peach Tree, I will definitely help you get rid of the poison of the ink poison, how about it?"

"Miss Suzhi, do you think I have any other choice?"

With a face full of anger, Xiao Mian acted like he was filled with righteous indignation.
