Chapter 74 Throwing a Stone to Test the Water

The journey was uneventful, and Xiao Mian and Ye Qingguo arrived in Lingchuanfang City within a few days.

"Now that we have arrived at Fangshi, I think that as long as we don't take the initiative to cause trouble, our safety will be guaranteed. You should go to the stall area to the west to have a look. If I guess correctly, Taoist Brother Xuanlang should be there!"

Xiao Mian and Ye Qingguo had already discussed it before entering Fang City, and they went their separate ways after entering Fang City. After all, the scene when Xiao Mian rescued the Ye family's ancestors and grandchildren from Wei Laohei that day was not unseen. If he and Ye Qingguo had Green fruits appear side by side, which will inevitably attract the attention of interested people.

At this time, Xiao Mian was wearing Li Mu Dao's human skin mask again. Speaking of which, the human skin mask left by Li Mu Dao was indeed pretty good. Unless he met the Yuan Ying Ancestor who had released his spiritual consciousness, he would be a powerful Jindan person. In person, the other party can only notice that he is wearing a mask but cannot see his true face through the mask.

Xiao Mian had no choice but to enter the market with a mask. After all, Xiao Mian used the original mask with spiritual materials to bid for the price, blocking the water flow, and really stole the show.

The spotlight is trouble, so Xiao Mian has to be careful.

Fortunately, times have changed, and people in the city are coming and going, and few people will pay attention to a monk who has not yet established a foundation.

Seeing that his appearance did not attract the attention of many monks in Fang City, Xiao Mian breathed a sigh of relief and then walked towards the small building in his memory.

Arriving at a shop called "Qian Fu Tang", Xiao Mian inadvertently looked back to make sure no one was following him, and then quickly entered Qian Fu Tang.

This Thousand Talisman Hall was a hidden stake installed by the Five Elements Sect in Lingchuanfang City. Even Lu Chengfeng's identity at that time was not known. Later, Fu Qingqiong was favored by Biluo Immortal and started to take care of the sect's affairs, and only then did he find out about it.

During the auction that day, Fu Qingqiong talked about this matter with Xiao Mian, and said that if Xiao Mian had something to do tomorrow, he could come here to look for her during the auction.

"Fellow Taoist, what do you need?" The waiter in the store did not have a cold attitude because of Xiao Mian's low cultivation level. Instead, he greeted him with a smile. This made Xiao Mian take a good look at Fu Qingqiong's ability to control him. After walking around the store twice, he saw some offensive talismans such as Five Elements spells, which did not insult the Five Elements Sect's signature. Xiao Mian then turned around and said: "Most of the talismans here are elementary five-element spells, and their attack power is too low. I want some more powerful ones. I wonder if your store sells them?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" The boy thought that Xiao Mian was just a spectator. When he heard this, he realized that he was a big guest. He excitedly led Xiao Mian into the inner hall and called the owner of the store to receive Xiao Mian in person. The boss was stunned when he saw Xiao Mian. Seeing that Xiao Mian was not at the Qi training stage, could he really afford the high-end talismans collected in the store? However, the store is open for business, so naturally he will not push the business outside, so he immediately handed it over as a courtesy: "This fellow Taoist is so polite! I wonder what type of talisman you need?"

"I want to see Senior Sister Fu Qingqiong!"

As he spoke, Xiao Mian took out the white jade pendant that had not been used for a long time and put it away in a flash.

The boss of Qianfutang was originally a disciple of the Five Elements Sect. Wuwangdao was now managing Qianfutang for the sect. Seeing that the white jade pendant was correct and hearing Xiao Mian naming him, he immediately sent Xiao Mian on his way without saying anything. Take it to the back hall.

After passing through the courtyard gate, walking through the corridor, and arriving in front of a pavilion, the boss turned around and left without saying anything. Xiao Mian didn't think it was strange and stood quietly in front of the door for a moment. Just when he was about to knock on the door, the door opened slightly, revealing Fu Qingqiong's delicate and elegant figure.

"What? Junior Brother Xiao is still afraid that Senior Sister will eat you?"

"Senior Sister Fu is joking!"

The two entered the room and the door was lightly closed.

"Junior brother Xiao is here to participate in the auction on August 15th again this time? Could it be that you got something good again? Take it out and show it to senior sister!"

Never mentioning how Xiao Mian escaped from Wei Laohei's three men's sniper attack that day, Fu Qingqiong just talked to Xiao Mian about the matter at hand - this was where Fu Qingqiong was smart.

Xiao Mian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing Fu Qingqiong's words. If Fu Qingqiong asked about the past, he really didn't know what to say. Could it be that Guitou came to help?

"Last time, I was careless and got into trouble. If I hadn't been helped by my senior sister, I might have died! This time I came to Fangshi not to participate in the auction, but because I wanted to exchange some things with my senior sister. I wonder if my senior sister can help me. Is this busy?"

But it turned out that Xiao Mian did not plan to attend the auction in person, but planned to do some transactions with Fu Qingqiong in private, which was naturally much safer. Fu Qingqiong was stunned after hearing this, and then glanced at Xiao Mian approvingly, but glanced away from the corner of his eye.

"Then it depends on what Junior Brother Xiao can come up with!"

"Sister, please look!"

Seeing that Fu Qingqiong didn't refuse, Xiao Mian took out a storage bag and handed it directly to Fu Qingqiong. After taking it, Fu Qingqiong glanced at Xiao Mian suspiciously. Seeing the old man's presence, Fu Qingqiong seemed to be sure that she would make a deal with him, so Fu Qingqiong wanted to deliberately embarrass him.

When Fu Qingqiong opened the storage bag and took a look, she couldn't help but be shocked.

Even though she was now responsible for the material logistics of the Five Elements Sect, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva when she saw the things in Xiao Mian's storage bag.

"Brother, you are so generous! Regardless of other things, just these three bottles of Wood Gold are worth 30,000 middle-grade spirit stones according to the bid of Demon Shadow Sect for Earth Wood that day. You should know that the life savings of ordinary Jindan strongmen are only 10,000 middle-grade spirit stones. Are you trying to knock me out with spirit stones?" Fu Qingqiong took out the things in Xiao Mian's storage bag one by one, and her face became more and more ugly: "This box of spirit herbs is as effective as the fourth-level Pansi grass with a thousand-year-old medicinal effect? ​​This bundle is the fur of an adult fire beast? Brother, you are not going to tell me that you are going to rob a sect's secret library?"

"Sister! Do you think that I can enter someone's secret library with my strength?"

"..., that's true! But what about these things?"

"If I say that these are all picked up in the mysterious cave after I accidentally fell off a cliff and accidentally broke into a cave, would you believe it?"

"I don't believe you!"

Giving Xiao Mian a big roll of the eyes, Fu Qingqiong didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Having said that, Fu Qingqiong also heard that Xiao Mian was not going to tell her the origins of these things - or maybe it was not that he didn't want to, but he really couldn't explain it!

The box of fourth-level Pansi grass was naturally the legacy of Li Mudao, and the bundle of fire beast fur was collected by Xiao Mian from the secret cave of the black boulder after obtaining Qingjing's consent. There were nearly a hundred pieces in a bundle, which was probably enough to make a fire ane suit.

"The preliminary estimate of these things is at least 50,000 middle-grade spirit stones. What on earth are you going to do with such a huge sum of money?"

"Three bottles of wood gold are presented to the sect!" Seeing Fu Qingqiong's delicate body tremble and looking at him in disbelief, Xiao Mian smiled faintly: "Last year, I listened to what my senior sister said. After I went back, I thought about it every day. I felt that the sect was like a root to a leaf and a source to a water. The Five Elements Sect can do without me, Xiao Mian, but I can't do without the Five Elements Sect! I remembered that the sect seemed to have a great demand for these things that day, so I brought them all and presented them to the sect through my senior sister. It's just a compensation for my lack of missions for the sect in these years as an inner disciple!"

"Huh..., my junior brother is really generous!"

Tens of thousands of middle-grade spirit stones were spent at once. Not to mention the cultivators in the Qi training stage, even the Jindan strongmen might not be so rich...
