Natural Fairy Species

  Chapter 54 Fangshi

  Baiyu Building, lobby.

   "During the period of my retreat and cultivation, did any major events happen inside the door?"

  Bai Zichen came out of the practice room, and Peng Jinhu was casting a spell to cut off the weeds in the cave, so as not to crowd out the growth space of several exotic flowers.

   Then he called Su Lie over and questioned him.

   "Master Hui Bai, there are no major incidents in the sect, and the sect leader is still in retreat. It is said that the war between the righteous and the evil outside has subsided, and a Yuanying Zhenjun intervened, so both sides can only die."

  Su Lie was clearly prepared for a long time, with a draft in his chest, he took out a silk book full of regulations from his cuff and handed it over.

   "True Monarch Yuanying?"

  Bai Zichen frowned, and asked, "Where is the Nascent Soul True Monarch in Mizhou? The blood god, the number one person in the Demon Dao, is also in the realm of consummation of alchemy!"

  If it is said that Master Jiedan is a high-level military force in Mizhou, it can completely reverse the local situation and determine the prosperity of a family.

  The Yuanying Zhenjun is purely a dimensionality reduction attack, and he doesn't need to take action himself, just a few words can change the situation of the two battles between righteousness and evil.

   "The specific situation is small and low-level, so I can't inquire about it. These are revealed when I listen to the chats of the outer disciples."

   "Some people speculate that the Supreme Elder from the Qishan Holy Lotus Sect took action. After all, this battle between righteousness and evil has already affected more than ten sects in the three prefectures. It is also possible that the Holy Lotus Sect intervened."

  Bai Zichen lightly tapped the countertop with his fingers, and fell silent.

  The consequences of one thought of Yuanying Zhenjun will affect thousands of monks, but this level is too far away from him, and the information that comes out is all the bottom monks' own thinking and imagination.

   "Tell me about something else."

   "The disciples in the sect must be most concerned about Xiaobi in the sect. Someone has already opened a private bet. I have copied the names of the disciples in the top five odds."

"Last month, when a handyman disciple went out to collect herbs, he found a thousand-year-old Golden Crown Ganoderma lucidum. After handing it over to the sect, he was promoted as an outer disciple and given a lot of rewards... All the handyman disciples went crazy. Almost hollowed out that mountain."

   "Among the inner disciples, two sent someone to send a famous card, and asked to meet with Bai Shao when he was free. A total of seven outer disciples came to visit..."

  Su Lie reported item by item in an orderly manner.

  If Bai Zichen is interested in which one, Su Lie can immediately expand it and describe it in detail.

  For example, the two inner disciples who sent the worship stickers have personalities and styles, what deeds in the past need to be paid attention to.

  Seven disciples from the outer sect, at what level is their cultivation progress, what kind of relationship do they have in the sect, and whether they have the potential for promotion.

   Obviously did enough homework.

   Judging from this, Bai Zichen did not choose the wrong person, and such a follower can save him a lot of worry.

   "Reply to the two inner disciples, and we will make an appointment for a small gathering at the end of this month. Let them choose the date... As for the outer disciples, they will disappear. If there are any visits in the future, just refuse me."

  Both are inner disciples, Bai Zichen is still willing to spend some time making friends, and by the way refer to which rank his own strength is.

  Outer sect disciples, he has no time to deal with them.

  In the world of cultivating immortals, after all, the great power belongs to itself, and the long-sleeved and good at dancing, the space for the swaying generation to display is limited.

  Even if you recruit a group of outer disciples who are cheering for you, it will not help you to be promoted to a true disciple.

   "You did a good job. From now on, you can collect information according to this template, and the focus should be on the Zong."

   It’s not that external information is unimportant, it’s just that at Su Lie’s level, it’s difficult to tell the truth from the collected information, unlike the sect’s information, there are always traces to follow.

   "By the way, how much do you know about Zongmenfang City?"

  Bai Zichen changed the subject and asked about Fangshi who had been curious for a long time.

   "So that Young Master Bai will know that before I came to Qingfeng's gate, I was living in the market, and I have been a guest guide in Wanbao Pavilion for several years."

  Su Lie's spirit was refreshed. As a follower, the greater his value, the more he could be trusted by the inner disciples who followed him.

  …

  Qingfengmenfang City.

   It is about 500 miles away from the main mountain of Qingfengmen, and it is located at the key pass in and out of Heishan.

  Although it is named after Fangshi, after hundreds of years of development, it is almost the same size as the same town.

   At first, there were only a dozen buildings, but now there are four streets and a square with stalls extending outward.

   Some rogue cultivators even built residences on the outskirts, but Qingfeng Sect did not intervene. Gradually, more and more people came. It can be said that more than half of the rogue cultivators in Montenegro gathered together.

   There are also descendants of casual cultivators who have no spiritual roots, and they also thrive nearby, all relying on the huge group of monks to survive.

  So, when Bai Zichen Yujian arrived in Fangshi, he saw such a picture completely different from what he had imagined.

  The disorganized and densely packed buildings look like countless matchboxes in the air, superimposed on top of each other.

  Going to the center, there is a narrow and long square in the form of a ring. A large number of casual repairs occupy a place here to sell their goods because they cannot afford to lease the shops in the market.

  There is a huge flow of people in the square, picking their favorite items at the booths.

  In many cases, there is no need to trade spirit stones, but to barter.

  The core area is naturally four intertwined and rank streets, the real Qingfengmenfang City.

  There was a thin layer of mist that enveloped the entire city.

   This is Fang City's guardian formation, and Qingfeng Sect has arranged two foundation-building elders to sit here, which shows how much they attach importance to it.

  By taking control of this square city, the monks of the entire Heishan County are working for the Qingfeng Sect in a disguised form. Countless spirit stones and massive cultivation resources gather here to earn income for the sect.

  Fang City's annual income is still growing rapidly.

   "Wanbao Pavilion, Wuxingmen Commercial Firm...these two really occupy good positions. I don't know where the Bai family's store is located. According to Fatty's tone, it should be in a corner."

  Fang City's main gate was guarded by several Qingfengmen disciples, but they didn't question the monks who came and went.

According to Su Lie, at night, except for the disciples of Qingfengmen, there are only three kinds of people who own shops in Fangshi, are employed by shops for a long time, and spend a lot of spirit stones to live in the mansions opened by Qingfengmen. Only people can stay.

  The rest of the people must all leave Fangshi.

   It's not like Bai Zichen imagined, all the shops in Fangshi are owned by Qingfengmen.

  In addition to the exclusive mansion store, Qingfengmen also opened seven or eight stores, all of which are in prominent positions, covering almost all walks of life.

  The rest of the shops were sold to the major cultivating families, and even some casual cultivators had accumulated spiritual stones for a lifetime, and some of them bought a small shop in partnership with others.

  After all, there is a policy in Fangshi. For casual cultivators who have descendants of spiritual roots and have good credit in the past, they can pay 30% of the down payment, and the remaining spiritual stones plus interest can be paid off slowly over a period of up to 60 years.

  There are two other shops in Fangshi, which are located in the most eye-catching positions at the intersection of the street.

  Wanbao Pavilion, Wuxingmen Commercial Firm, two branch stores opened by two alchemy-level forces in Qingfengmenfang City.
