Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Chapter 25: An idea is hidden, and the blessed land is green

"The Taoist priest lurks in Qingping Mountain, sitting and watching the storm."

"Although you don't leave home, you still know the world's affairs. You live in seclusion and watch, but you are powerful and powerful for thousands of miles. It's really a fairy life."

Wearing a flowing cloud white robe with a flower belt around the waist, a green crown on his head and lion boots on his feet, the handsome young master leaned against the palace door and said with a smile.

Although his face is a bit feminine, it does not hinder the visitor's demeanor. Instead, it adds a bit of chicness, just like that of the courtier.

Jiang Sheng looked indifferent, sitting cross-legged on the futon with his eyelids lowered, holding a book in his hand and slowly flipping through it: "What's wrong with this? It seems that I have heard a lot of news about you, fellow Taoist."

"It is said that the most famous romantic talents in Qingzhou travel to the mountains and rivers in Qingshan County. Every time they travel, they are accompanied by beautiful women. They recite poems, write poems, smile and look at the wind and the moon. They are so happy."

"Master Kong Kong, if you don't continue to live your free and unrestrained life, why are you looking for me?"

The person who came was unexpectedly Mr. Kong Kong, a loose cultivator who was quite famous throughout Qingzhou.

Young Master Kong looked at the front hall. Everything was new, and he could still smell the scent of trees.

There are not many decorations in the hall, just a green brick futon, an incense table, and the portraits enshrined on the incense table.

After a moment of silence, Young Master Kong asked: "Does the Taoist know that there are rumors circulating in Qingshan County recently?"

"What does it have to do with Pindao?" Jiang Sheng asked rhetorically.

The corners of Mr. Kong Kong's eyes twitched, and he couldn't help but say: "Taoist Master, trouble in Qingshan County is not a good thing for me!"

"Don't forget that our goal is the river god in the Taiping River! If Qingshan County is completely in chaos, who will have the time to take care of the river god?"

Jiang Sheng looked at Young Master Kong Kong and raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Is Young Master Kong Kong worried about slaying demons, or is he worried about the life and death of the magistrate of Qingshan County and the people?"

"Or maybe you are worried about the Purple Sun Jade that the county magistrate promised you?"

Purple Yang Jade is the treasure that the foundation-building monks use to protect their way when they open up the Purple Mansion.

These spiritual treasures are enough to increase the monk's chances of winning by 10% when opening the Purple Mansion. They can also protect the monk's heart after the monk fails to open the Purple Mansion, and protect most of the monk's cultivation from causing the monk to die suddenly.

As long as Zi Yang Jade is used, even if the opening of Zi Mansion fails, there will be a chance to start over again.

Such treasures have always been controlled by the Qi court, major aristocratic families, and major sects in various states.

Although Mr. Kong Kong mistakenly entered the cave of a Zifu monk and obtained his inheritance, the Zifu monk was a casual cultivator and did not have much property.

It is not easy to allow Young Master Kong to build a foundation, and the Zi Mansion's resources are very few.

Not to mention precious treasures such as Ziyang Jade.

But just because Mr. Kong Kong can't get it, it doesn't mean that Zhang Qingyun can't get it.

Zhang Qingyun was able to become the magistrate of a county at the age of forty because of the great efforts of his family.

What's more, Zhang Qingyun is also an official of the imperial court. Every few years, the imperial court will distribute a batch of cultivation resources to the states. These cultivation resources are either allocated to Taoist palaces or yamen.

That's why Mr. Kong Kong chose to cooperate with Zhang Qingyun.

As for the famous Qingzhou hero Loose Cultivator Wen Renjie, this is even more the case. Wen Renjie's cultivation method is only a fragment, and the way forward is cut off when he reaches the middle stage of foundation building.

If Wen Renjie wants to continue practicing, he needs to complete the remaining chapters or change the exercises.

And which technique that can be practiced to the late stage of foundation building is not firmly controlled by the imperial court, practicing families and sects?

As for the skills that have been cultivated to the Zifu, apart from trying your luck in the cave of the predecessors, you can only get one by working for the court or aristocratic family, or joining the sect as an outer elder, and you have not practiced until the later stage of the Zifu.

Not to mention Qi, which of the countries in the Eastern Region is not like this?
The imperial court, aristocratic families, and sects firmly control various resources, such as martial arts, spiritual veins, elixirs, magical weapons, spiritual plants, and spiritual treasures.
The distinction between oneself and outsiders is extremely clear.

Not to mention the aristocratic families, which are bound by bloodline, the imperial court employs people in an eclectic way, and there are differences between close relatives and distant relatives, and the sect pays more attention to cultivating disciples from an early age.

No matter where you are as a casual cultivator, life is very difficult.

Therefore, every casual cultivator who can build a foundation on his own and open up a purple mansion is so famous, because they all have great luck.

Wen Renjie is for the Kung Fu, and Master Kong is for the Ziyang Jade. Speaking of which, they are the ones who least want anything to happen to Zhang Qingyun, and they are also the ones who most hope that the demon slaying operation will succeed.

Nowadays, rumors are spreading in Qingshan County, and people are panicking. The gentry and wealthy businessmen in the city have united to resist the county government's decree. People in the towns outside the city have also petitioned for orders, hoping that the government government will give up its actions.

The county government is now the center of a whirlpool. Zhang Qingyun is placed on the oil pan. The person hidden behind is probably smiling at Zhang Qingyun being fried.

In such a situation, how could Mr. Kong not be anxious?
Wen Renjie had already rushed back to the county town to assist Xu Xiao. After much thought, Mr. Kong Kong decided to ask Jiang Sheng to come out. After all, Jiang Sheng's strength is obvious to all. All the Eight Wolves of East County died in his hands. If Jiang Sheng comes forward, the restlessness in the entire Qingshan County will definitely subside.

But now Jiang Sheng revealed Master Kong Kong's thoughts with one word, and Master Kong Kong didn't know what to say next.

"Master Kong Kong, if you are really worried about your Purple Sun Jade, you should be in Qingshan County now, not here in Pindao." Jiang Sheng said.

Master Kong Kong smiled after hearing this. He looked at this pure and elegant Taoist temple, then turned around and looked at the mountains in the distance. He suddenly said with a smile: "Taoist Master, this Qingping Mountain is uniquely endowed by nature with hidden ideas. It is really a treasure place!"

"If we practice here, it won't take long for the bottleneck below to be loosened. By then, it won't be difficult to break through to the late stage of foundation building, or even open up the Purple Mansion."

Jiang Sheng's eyes changed slightly when he looked at Mr. Kong Kong.

Although Young Master Kong had his back to Jiang Sheng, he still felt the stinging sensation of the sharp edge on his back for an instant. Although it was only a momentary feeling, Young Master Kong froze.

Realizing that he seemed to have said something wrong, Mr. Kong Kong laughed dryly: "Haha, since the Taoist Master is unwilling to go out, I won't bother you. I will go back to the county town to help Fairy Xu."

After that, Young Master Kong left the Taoist temple seemingly calmly, and then immediately left with the wind, disappearing from the horizon in just a moment.

Jiang Sheng silently looked at the direction in which Mr. Kong Kong was leaving. The relaxed and carefree indifference in his eyes had been replaced by indifference at some point.

"Master." Tian Ming'an appeared behind Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng said softly: "Ming'an."

Tian Ming'an replied: "Disciple is here."

"What would you do if someone took a fancy to your family's wealth?" Jiang Sheng asked.

Tian Ming'an answered without hesitation: "Of course I'm going to fight back. Why should my Tian family's wealth be coveted by others?"

After that, Tian Ming'an added: "If the other party is more powerful than our family, then we can only endure it for the time being and wait until our family becomes stronger in the future, or when we find an opportunity, we can fight back."

Jiang Sheng nodded: "Yes, you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid that thieves will miss you. Others take a fancy to your things, but they don't show any signs of it, waiting for the opportunity in the dark."

"It's really a blessing for a poor person to encounter such a thing."

Tian Ming'an asked cautiously: "Master, is that Young Master Kong Kong thinking about us?"

Jiang Sheng nodded slightly: "He has this intention."

Tian Mingan asked again: "Master, what are you going to do?"

Jiang Sheng retracted his gaze towards the distance and continued to flip through the book in his hand: "Do you know where Young Master Kong went wrong?"

Tian Mingan thought thoughtfully and said, "Is he coveting us?"

Jiang Sheng put down the book and looked at Tian Ming'an: "Wrong. His mistake was not that he discovered something that my master had hidden, nor that he coveted my master's things."

"His biggest mistake is that he is not as strong as his master, but he still covets his master's things."

Tian Ming'an nodded as if he understood, and saw Jiang Sheng stood up and stretched his muscles: "But he won't die now, because he is still useful to his teacher while he is alive."

"That's all. Ignore him for now. Master, I'm here to take a look at your practice in recent days. As for Mr. Kong Kong, I'll take care of him after the River God's Grand Ceremony."

Tian Ming'an was overjoyed when he heard this, and he quickly said: "Master, my disciple has felt much stronger in recent days, and his thoughts are particularly clear. He can faintly sense Qi in his abdomen, and he must be able to introduce Qi into his body soon." ”

Jiang Sheng chuckled: "Why are you in such a hurry? Do you want to catch up with me?"

"Did you know that my teacher has grown up in the Taoist sect since he was a child, from an infant to babbling and then to a toddler? Even though he was a precocious young man, he still didn't start practicing until he was eight years old."

"I also started practicing martial arts, and it took me four years to introduce Qi into my body."

"Cultivation is something that can't be rushed."

Tian Ming'an was a little disappointed, but he quickly adjusted his mood and started practicing martial arts for Jiang Sheng in a strict manner.

Jiang Sheng looked at the seriousness on Tian Ming'an's little face, but his thoughts were already far away: "This Qingping Mountain is the dojo occupied by the poor Tao, and it is the place where the poor Tao plans to open up the Zi Mansion and even condense the golden elixir!"

"Not to mention that Pindao still has disciples now. Mr. Kong Kong, you covet Pindao's dojo. Why doesn't Pindao want your opportunity?"

"Master Kong Kong, don't be anxious. I will send you to reincarnation after the demon slaying is over."
