Inuyasha's journey to immortality

Chapter 15 A perfect deal, an unexpected haze

The meeting with the practitioners from North America was scheduled for the afternoon of that day.

The meeting place was a manor.

It was one of the properties in Tokyo owned by the Smith family, a large family of North American practitioners.

Deep in the manor, there is a water pavilion.

At this time, on a tea table in the pavilion, three people from both sides were chatting and drinking tea.

After chatting for a while and sipping some tea, the other party got straight to the point and directly proposed a deal:
  "Xia, I know that in addition to the inheritance of Fu Dao, the Li family of your peninsula also has the inheritance of shikigami with the help of Fu Dao contract! You asked your family to buy soul-nurturing wood in Tokyo, probably to build a good shrine, right? Just right, I have a very rare piece of precious soul-nourishing wood in my hand.

Originally, I was going to use it to make a deal with another friend of yours who is the main lineage of the Li family. But in my opinion, trading with the main line is actually the same as trading with side branches like You.

So if you can be sincere and give me a suitable price, I naturally don’t want to go all the way to the peninsula..."

Javi Smith, the young hero of the Smith family.

This time I happened to visit the island nation of Tokyo.

Next to him sat a young man from a branch of the Smith family, who was also the manager of this manor. Named Glenn Smith:

"The soul-nurturing wood here is four hundred years old. It is very rare on the market. It can be called the best of the best! It is no problem to use this soul-nurturing wood as the main material to build two shrines.

Xia, make a price.

By the way, please be sincere. If the quotation you gave is too different from our expectations, we can only apologize. "

Although there is no blood in the game in the shopping mall, there is oppression everywhere.

Hearing this, Li Xia fell into deep thought.

He knew that these two members of the Smith family came here for the Li family's talisman.

Although the Li family sells some talismans every year, most of those talismans are sold at high prices through auctions. In other words, not all practitioners can get the Li family's talismans; if you want to get extra. We can only start from the Li family members.

Regardless of the main line or the side branches, because of the strong oath, the talisman inheritance is unlikely to be lost. However, the finished talismans drawn by family members can be used in private transactions, so that each can get what they need by exchanging things.

At present, the transaction between Li Xia and the Smith family is the above situation.

"It is undeniable that the four-hundred-year-old soul-nurturing wood is indeed relatively rare, but it does not mean that Li has no other ways to obtain it. If you give me time, I can also obtain the soul-nurturing wood with better quality than this piece of soul-nurturing wood through my family. Collected through some channels.”

Li Xia's words were purely an act of lowering prices.

There was no way he would let the two guys on the other side ask for huge amounts of money.

"Really? Xia, as a side branch, you are actually purchasing soul-nurturing wood. Isn't this an interesting thing?"

Glenn Smith smiled.

Collecting high-quality soul-nourishing wood to build a shrine has changed the direction of many problems.

First, the collector has either successfully captured a demon with extraordinary abilities; or, he or she knows some information about the demon and is quite sure of capturing it. In other words, collecting soul-nourishing trees is preparing in advance for the subsequent contract process.

Secondly, as a side branch, Li Xia actually masters the means of contracting demons and ghosts as shikigami that only those in the main line are qualified to master!
  A person from the side branch who is qualified to contact one of the core inheritance of the family must have made a great contribution!
  For the ancient mage family, what kind of contribution is considered a great achievement?
  therefore.

On the contrary, it was confirmed that the young man in front of him probably had information about a demon, or he had a ready-made demon in his hands.

"You two, let's do business, it's not a good idea to get to the bottom of things!"

Li Xia said calmly.

But I was extremely vigilant in my heart.

He didn't expect that the members of the North American cultivator family would be so difficult to deal with.

The two of them actually guessed his general situation through a few clues in a short period of time.

In fact, the two of them gathered information for most of the day and discussed this for a long time before conjecturing it.

It was not a conclusion drawn from a few words after meeting each other.

"Okay, Xia, let's just do business and not talk about anything else..."

"Humph!"

In the end, Li Xia took out three self-made high-quality low-level talismans that were comparable to mid-level talismans and twenty-two inferior low-level talismans, and then exchanged them for the precious soul-nurturing wood. In the circle of practitioners, barter transactions are naturally impossible to use ordinary money as currency. Only finished talismans can be used as a kind of hard currency. Many other products similar to talismans, such as magic weapons, elixirs, spiritual liquids, etc., are also hard currencies.

The transaction ended and the two parties reached a simple agreement.

That is:
  Today's transaction needs to be kept secret by the three of them.

Li Xia wanted to go back quickly to build a shrine and complete the shikigami contract with the human body! I no longer have the heart to accompany these two romantic lovers from the beautiful country! Besides, the longer you stay and the more you talk, the easier it is to make mistakes.

Now, he does not dare to look down upon any young man from the cultivator family.

For example, the Smith family in this beautiful country seems to have a much more mature system for cultivating their tribesmen than the peninsular Li family's cultivation system for their tribesmen. Teenagers who have just reached adulthood are actually able to take charge of their own business.

...

What Li Xia didn't know was that just moments after he left, a motorcade came to the Smith family's estate from the other direction.

A middle-aged man who came down from the motorcade looked deeply at the direction Li Xia left for a long time.

"What's wrong uncle?"

Javi Smith stepped forward and asked.

The middle-aged man standing at the gate of the manor narrowed his eyes and wanted to say something but did not speak. After entering a room in the manor, he asked his nephew:
  "Which family does the person who left before belong to? Does he have a strong background?"

The middle-aged man is Sean Smith, a master of the Mesozoic generation in the Smith family.

Although he was born on the sidelines, he joined the main line because he helped the family find a treasure, and gained many ancient inheritances accumulated by the family.

"That person is a member of the branch of the Li family in the peninsula. He should have made contributions to the family before, and thus gained the appreciation of the senior leaders of the Li family, and was given the inheritance of the Li family's contract shikigami! His father's moral conduct is average, and his strength is about That's it! What's wrong, uncle, why do you ask this? Uncle, do you have any thoughts about him? "

Jia Wei raised his eyebrows, his face full of surprise and confusion.

Beside, Glenn was equally surprised.

"Are you a member of the side branch? Like me, you have made great contributions to the family, and only then have you come to the attention of the higher-ups!

Tsk tsk, then maybe the previous connection between me and my pet Hardy was right! "

The middle-aged man touched his chin and chuckled.

The smile is full of a different flavor.

Next to them, the two young men of the Smith family were even more confused.

However, Sean, who had some other ideas, didn't say much. Instead, he found the landline in the room, made a call to Beautiful Country, and informed the leader of his own faction within the family about his previous special feelings and certain guesses.

"You mean, you and your contract spirit sensed the aura of that treasure? Sean, are you sure you sensed it correctly?"

On the other side of the phone, there came a question full of surprise.

Here, the middle-aged man spoke with determination:

"Elder, you can't be wrong! It was because of handing over that thing that I became successful and famous today!"

"Besides, it's better to kill someone wrong than let it go!
  Now in the Age of Ending Dharma, the path to immortality has long been cut off, and most of the divine objects have lost their magical power in ancient times. Only that kind of treasure still retains its magical power!
  Not only can it enhance individual strength, it can even help practitioners like us extend our lives and even achieve immortality..."

Hearing his protégé's vow, and then thinking of the various mysterious powers of the treasures recorded in ancient books, the tone of the person on the other side of the phone immediately became more joyful and excited.

"Okay, you set your sights on the target!

I'll arrange for someone to come over and help you right away!
  By the way, don’t be greedy for success and rush in to alert the enemy! Let’s wait until reinforcements arrive! "

"Elder, I think it's best to say hello to the Li family of Peninsula. For example, let their young man named Li Xia go to the Smith family in our beautiful country for academic exchanges! As long as people arrive in our territory, everything will be easy to handle! And the Li family would not refuse academic exchanges!"

The so-called academic exchange is actually to allow adolescent boys and girls to have more contact.

As long as these young people with strong hormones look at each other, it is natural for them to get together.

There is no reason for the little Li family to refuse the "goodwill" of this giant Smith.

"If the Li family on the peninsula refuses, it means they are ignorant!"
