Gou marries a wife in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 23

During this period of time, the doors of each house were closed tightly, and no one dared to go out easily.

In the east direction, there are even more heart-shattering roaring and fighting sounds from time to time.

Even Qin Jiyue, who often ran out, stayed at home obediently at this moment, not daring to step out of the house at all, not even thinking of going out to collect intelligence information.

After all, the outside world is chaotic and complicated. As long as the monks are not from our own forces, they will be regarded as enemies.

In order to ensure their own safety, everyone will take the lead in attacking, and would rather kill the wrong one than let it go.

On the contrary, Li Guanxuan was not so panic-stricken, he kept his ears to the outside world, ate meals on time every day and cared for him, and his life was no different from before.

About a month later, the war was finally over.

According to what Li Guanxuan learned...

After half a month of Huanxi Mountain's hard support, the ancestor whose lifespan is not long chooses to sacrifice himself with blood, helping the head of Huanxi Mountain step into the peak of foundation building.

Even so, Huanxi Mountain couldn't resist the invasion of the four major forces, and the head finally broke through the siege and fled here.

Many elder disciples who stayed behind either surrendered or died.

After a round of bloodbath and profit distribution, the area of ​​Huanxi Mountain was divided into Luoyue Valley.

As for what the other three major forces got, Li Guanxuan didn't know.

"Mount Huanxi is destroyed... No, it's not really destroyed. After all, the leader of the peak of Foundation Establishment has not yet fallen. After many years, maybe he will come back... Does this count as 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi? , Don’t bully the middle-aged and poor?”

Li Guanxuan fell into deep thought.

If they wanted to escape from the beginning, then both of them could leave together, why bother to sacrifice themselves in the end?
Therefore, Li Guanxuan speculated that maybe the two of them hadn't found the velvet flower spirit tree yet, failed to understand its mysteries, and left like this unwillingly.

The ancestor's lifespan is nearing the end of his life, and there is no hope, but the middle-aged head of Huanxi Mountain has a bright future.

Once the velvet flower spirit tree is found and its mysteries are understood, there may be hope of resurrecting the ancestor...

This is Li Guanxuan's guess from the perspective of the two of them.

Of course, that may not be the case.

No matter what the situation is, it doesn't matter to Li Guanxuan, as long as he stays at home honestly, sooner or later he will be able to slap the threat of the head of Huanxi Mountain to death.

After all, even if the other party didn't fully know the secret of the velvet flower spirit tree, at least they knew a little bit.

When the other party can break the secret, they will definitely start investigating everywhere...

Therefore, Li Guanxuan tried his best not to make a move, and he didn't even bother arguing with others. If you lose some spirit stones, you lose some spirit stones, as long as people are fine.

Today, someone just knocked on the door.

Qin Jiyue went to open the door and saw two middle-aged men in robes. She couldn't help frowning slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

She recognized these two people, and the other party was in charge of rent collection... A former disciple of the outer sect of Mount Huanxi.

Now it seems that he is an outer disciple of Luoyuegu.

One of them looked embarrassed and said, "Um, Mrs. Qin, it's like this, Luoyuegu asked us to come and collect the rent..."

Qin Jiyue said displeased: "Didn't you just hand in over a month ago?"

"That's the rent paid to Huanxi Mountain, not Luoyue Valley."

The other person's tone was not so good, and he said indifferently and bluntly: "In order to find out whether there is still a secret operation of Huanxi Mountain in Qing'an City, Luoyuegu specially sent us here to investigate door to door, as long as they are willing to pay The renter is a friend of Luoyuegu, otherwise..."

Hearing this, Qin Jiyue's face was gloomy and ugly, which was obviously extortion!

At this time, Li Guanxuan immediately came over, took out a bag of spiritual stones and handed it to the other party, and said with a smile: "This is our rent for this year, as for the extra 40 yuan of spiritual stones, it can be regarded as the tea fee for two fellow Taoists. gone."

The middle-aged man with a simple, honest and round face took the bag of spirit stones and sighed: "Master Li Fu, we also obey orders, and life is hard for anyone nowadays, so you can take back the extra spirit stones."

As he said that, the honest middle-aged man was about to hand back the 40 Yuan Lingshi. The eyelids of the person next to him jumped, and he secretly scolded Lao Hong for being a fool?

Li Guanxuan stretched out his hand to block it, and said with a helpless smile: "Friend Daoist Hong, as you said, everyone's life is hard nowadays. If you don't charge the tea fee, other people will come to collect it, or even more. Stay safe and continue to live here."

Daoyou Hong was stunned, and nodded with a wry smile: "Qing'an City hasn't stabilized yet, if your family doesn't have enough food, I can help bring some over."

Li Guanxuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly said: "Weaknesses in Lingmi."

Fellow Daoist Hong silently memorized it.

The person next to him asked, "Is there enough meat?"

"It's almost finished." The corner of Li Guanxuan's mouth was bitter.

"Put it at your door at Xushi, remember to take it away quickly."

The man said something, and then added: "About six spirit stones."

Li Guanxuan froze for a moment, then took out the storage bag, counted out ten pieces from the scattered spirit stones, handed them to the other party, and said gratefully:
"Thank you."

Both of them also saw that there were more than a dozen low-grade spirit stones left in Li Guanxuan's storage bag.

The man brought out four spirit stones and returned them to Li Guanxuan, and said angrily: "There are only sixty catties of spirit meat left, don't expect me to bring you more."

Seeing that Li Guanxuan wanted to say something, Hong Daoyou quickly stopped with his eyes, and interrupted:

"Okay, Master Li Fu, remember to open the door and take the rice and meat at Xushi. Don't let anyone miss it. We are still rushing to the next house to collect rent, so don't bother us."

"Lingmi's money...well, thank you two friends, I will keep it in my heart."

Li Guanxuan cupped his hands and bowed, thanking him again and again.

After the two left, Li Guanxuan closed the door, heaving a sigh of relief, but saw Qin Jiyue staring at him dumbfounded.

"Why? Why look at Wei Fu with such admiring eyes?" Li Guanxuan laughed softly.

"Cheater..."

Qin Jiyue was dumbfounded just now.

If she remembers correctly, Li Guanxuan still has at least three or four thousand low-grade spirit stones in his hands, a pile of talisman seals, and enough food to feed his family of three for three years...

But just now, the embarrassment on Li Guanxuan's face didn't look like acting at all!
And that wave of operations with several spirit stones made her jaw drop in shock.

Qin Jiyue said strangely: "No, why didn't you take out a bag of spirit stones and count them earlier? This way, you might save 40 yuan worth of spirit stones."

Li Guanxuan put his arms around her shoulders, and explained slowly and patiently:
"At the end of the war, even though Luoyuegu got the spiritual veins in this area, it definitely paid a lot of price, otherwise, they wouldn't have tried every means to get the spiritual stones and squeeze the low-level casual cultivators.

The former Huanxishan outer disciples like Hong Lang and Cui Zhi suffered no less oppression than us.

After all, the bloodbath had just ended, and the non-staff personnel who could survive and keep their positions were basically bankrupt.

If you think about it carefully, Cui Zhi was a very friendly and smiling person in the past, if he hadn't been beaten in reality now, he wouldn't seem like a different person.

40 yuan low-grade Lingshi, not too much, not too little, but it is enough for them to last for a while, and remember my kindness to them... Why not do it? "

After slowly digesting these words, Qin Jiyue was filled with emotion.

She suddenly discovered that Li Guanxuan actually knows how to handle people's hearts better than her.
