Chapter 820 Huitong Baohao, breaking the appointment on the spot
After some haggling, from one ancient treasure to ten magic weapons, the last five were sold.
"How do I pay the priest?"
After all, the two are so far apart that they are separated by who knows how far.
The divination operator in Qian's eyes directly gave a location, which was in a large cultivation market somewhere in Bozhou on the west coast.
"After you go there, find a Huitong account, and then directly report the name of Lao Dao and hand over the reward to them."
"Huitong Baohao?"
Lin Shan heard this name for the first time and couldn't help but curiously asked.
"But it's the industry under Daochang?"
The fortune teller didn't want to explain too much, but the money hadn't been paid yet, so he had to tell him patiently.
"Huitong Baohao is a large-scale general store chain in the cultivation world. It has branches in many places, spanning half of the continent, and bulk commodity trade flows between the branches."
"Old Taoist is the Black Dragon VIP of this account. Many old customers come to me for fortune telling. They contact me and pay remotely through this channel. It's really rare for Taoist friends like me to directly contact my disciples."
"Next time if you want to tell fortunes, just go to Huitong Baohao. After all, there are not many divination seeds left outside by the old Taoist. Try not to interfere with their growth. The value of this Luobao copper coin is not low. It will be scrapped after one use.
What a pity..."
Lin Shan's eyes were opened after hearing this. It was the first time he knew that there was such a large-scale cultivation business in this world!
It seems that if you don’t reach a certain level, you won’t be able to access this level.
Now that he accidentally learned about it, it opened up new ideas for him.
It just so happens that in the Lu and Chu countries, I haven't heard of such a company settling in. Maybe I can set up an express delivery company, isn't it... a bulk company?
You can also help yourself collect and transport antiques from various places privately!
Lin Shan planned to start planning this matter after he returned.
On the other side, Bu Suanzi was comforting Jue Juezi:
"Disciple, I am an old man with great ambitions. Although you seem to have no future, you still need to work hard!"
"Woooooooooooo master..."
"From now on, if you don't have the treasured copper coins, you can no longer contact the master. You have to take care of yourself... Even though the copper coins are of no use in your hands, just treat them as waste."
"Woooooooooo..."
"Don't cry. There are examples of late bloomers in the world of cultivation. As long as you don't give up, maybe... although it's probably impossible..."
"Wow~~~"
Jue Juezi cried even louder!
Lin Shan twitched the corner of his mouth, no wonder these two living treasures can get together. The fortune teller is really outspoken. Is there anyone who can comfort people like you?
Finally, the copper coin fell to the ground and turned into a plume of black smoke that dissipated in the wind.
Jue Juezi collapsed on the ground with a look of despair. Even though he was holding a huge amount of spiritual stones given by Lin Shan in his arms, but being comforted by his master, he suddenly felt that he was a waste and that there was no point in living in this world!
To cultivate the golden elixir of Taoism and find a master has always been his goal.
Once a person's faith collapses, the consequences will be horrific!
He had told the fortunes of many people in his life, but in the end he failed to pass his own test, and suddenly there were signs of death!
"wake up!"
Lin Shan suddenly let out a loud roar, deafening and deafening, which directly woke him up.
Only then did he react, he quickly opened his eyes and shook his head, patted his chest fearfully, and thanked Lin Shan.
"It scared me to death. If it weren't for the seniors here, I would have almost gone crazy! I still have so many spiritual stones, I can definitely buy Foundation Establishment Pills to hit the Foundation Establishment stage! Even if the future is hopeless, it is enough to enjoy my old age, there is no reason not to think about it...
"
This guy kept talking, cheering himself up, and convincing himself at the same time.
Seeing him like this, how could Lin Shan not know that he was still sad about his dream being shattered, as if he was in a daze, and he was not relieved at all!
"You'd better be careful. If a down-and-out fortune teller suddenly has money to buy foundation-building pills, it can easily attract the attention of interested people. Don't cause a fatal disaster."
I tried to give him a hint with good intentions, but found that this guy was still absent-minded.
Lin Shan took back the copy of "Silver Ping Mei" and was just about to leave. He thought of the divination operator from before and was worried about how to establish friendship with such a legendary figure in the future. Suddenly something happened in his heart.
If I take Jue Juezi with me and help him grow to the golden elixir stage, wouldn't this guy be able to meet the divination operator again?
When the time comes, I will have a reason, so I will go to visit the fortune teller and ask him to tell my fortune next time. Why can't I give him a discount in front of an acquaintance?
He was determined to make friends with that awesome old man, so he decided to do it casually. He was already a monk in the Nascent Soul Stage, and he was very particular about doing things as he pleased.
"Um...Jue Juezi, do you want to come to my side and do things with me?"
Jue Juezi was closing the stall, worried about gains and losses, thinking about how to convert the huge sum of money into strength, whether to buy two high-level magic weapons for self-defense first, or to rent a cave for retreat.
Suddenly I heard Lin Shan extending an olive branch and was stunned.
Then he immediately waved his hands, avoiding like a snake or a scorpion.
"No, no, I'm stupid. Being with my senior is a disgrace to your teachings. I'd better let me fend for myself."
"Follow me and your safety is guaranteed."
Lin Shan slowly raised his eyebrows sideways.
Unexpectedly, this guy refused one after another.
"No need. I already have a master, so I can't follow anyone else. I hope you will forgive me, senior."
"I didn't ask you to change families, I just took you along hand in hand."
"Senior, there's really no need for that!"
This old man refused to follow Lin Shan. I don't know whether he was defensive or just liked to be alone.
This is the first time Lin Shan has encountered this kind of thing. He treats his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. I am a monk in the Yuan Ying stage who is willing to take you a little person in the Qi training stage. Why don't you give up this opportunity for nothing?
"You have to think carefully, I can help you grow to the golden elixir stage smoothly. Then you will be qualified to find your master. Are you sure you don't want to follow?"
Jue Juezi was obviously very moved, but after struggling for a while and gritting his teeth, he still refused.
"Senior, I won't lie to you. My master told you a fortune, and it's probably a sign of disaster! It's a disaster for you. If I follow you, I'll definitely die. There's no luck! Please let me go.
..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It turns out that’s why.
Lin Shan has an inexplicable toothache. Fortune-telling is inherently uncertain. I am mentally prepared now. Why do you think I will still be in trouble in the future?
He had always been skeptical about the results, neither fully believing in them nor fully believing in them. Now that Jue Juezi thinks so absolutely, he should take this old boy with him and let him take a good look!
See if your master's calculations are accurate!
"Oh no, senior?"
"Come in, you!"
Plop~
Jue Juezi was thrown directly into the Star Mansion and was beaten to pieces. He raised his head with a grin on his face and found the little fox girl looking at him with a cute look on her face.
...
Lin Shan walked around the port town for a while, and then according to what Divination Master said, he first went to the largest Xiuzhenfang City nearby, found the Huitong Bao No., and took out five magic weapons as reward.
The shopkeeper of this shop seems to be a new one. After hearing the name "Businessman", he didn't know anything about it!
He asked Lin Shan to sit in the lobby and wait while he went to the back to check before returning.
Tell Linshan that this person is indeed among the Black Dragon VIPs, and that the five magic weapons can be left here. Later, he will send special personnel to transport them step by step to ensure that the things are handed over to the fortune teller himself.
Lin Shan was thoughtful, it seemed that the level of this Black Dragon VIP was very high, and every semicolon on the mainland had a roster.
Logically speaking, the shopkeeper should memorize the names of all VIPs. This is obviously incompetent, and he still has to go through the list temporarily?
Of course, this has nothing to do with him, he is just asking what are the requirements to become a Black Dragon VIP of Huitong Baohao.
The shopkeeper said he didn't know either, because he was just a Golden Core monk and his level in the Huitong Baohao was not high, otherwise he wouldn't have been assigned to a bitter and cold place like the west coast.
Huitong Baohao is a super power on the mainland. It has always maintained a neutral position and is aloof. Every VIP guest must be a big shot who stomps his feet and causes earthquakes. He is definitely not qualified to issue such a certificate.
However, he could see that Lin Shan was a big shot, and it was rare to meet a Nascent Soul monk who came to his door on his own initiative, so he hurriedly tried to flatter him, saying that with his current authority, he could apply for Lin Shan to be a gold-dollar VIP at most.
Lin Shan thought that no matter whether there was one or not, it wouldn't hurt to get one first.
The shopkeeper told him that at the end of the year, all localities will report to the headquarters, and the comprehensive assessment of personnel at each level will be uniformly calculated, and an accurate answer will be given at that time.
Just like that, the business of fortune-telling ended.
Lin Shan helped Jue Juezi purchase some training resources needed for the Qi training period and the foundation building period, and then returned to Jidong Port again, waiting for Shui Bingyue.
This wait is another two months.
However,
Shui Bingyue agreed to meet at the meeting place, but she herself didn't come for a long time, and she actually let go!
Seeing that it was overdue and the host still didn't show up, Lin Shan couldn't sit still.
He realized something was wrong!
Something must have happened over there at Shui Bingyue!
Logically speaking, half a year is enough for her to hire one person, or even ten people!
But no one came, and no news was given to him. He just went missing. It was obvious that he had encountered force majeure.
I waited patiently for seven more days.
He knew that there was no need to stay in Jidong Port any longer and Shui Bingyue would not come.
Immediately the consciousness entered the spirit beast ring:
"Xiaodie, Xiaodie!"
In the spirit beast ring, the three evil spirit brothers, Meng Liru and the evil spirits Meng and Wraith Spirit Cellar, are quarreling endlessly. The evil spirit Kun, who has become the Nascent Soul, is currently acting as a peacemaker for five of his kind.
The sapling of the Phantom Ancient Tree is sleeping soundly. Because it has not been pruned in recent years and is nourished by the red jade spiritual soil, it has become lush and leafy.
Hearing Lin Shan's voice, all the branches and leaves trembled at the same time!
Hua la la la~
The little sapling was frightened and woke up, and the six ethereal spirits under it also looked over.
Lin Shan's spiritual consciousness projection stepped forward and found the Void Butterfly on the branch soaked in Cheng Yuan Spirit Wine.
Ever since this little guy transformed, he has been drunk and dreaming all day long. He has never been awake for a moment, and he doesn't bother to care about her.
After all, the Void Butterfly grows by drinking spiritual liquid and sleeping.
But now Shui Bingyue couldn't be contacted, maybe something unexpected happened, so he could only find Xiaodie and rely on the induction of his companion spirit pet.
"Wake up, wake up little one!"
He took it out of the wine jar, pinched his wings and shouted loudly.
The six virtual spirit brothers and the little sapling below just looked at it.
Xiaodie puffed out bubbles in a daze and was a little annoyed by the noise. She didn't want to pay attention to him, but she had to listen.
Acting urgently, Lin Shan poured water on it several times before waking it up.
Fluttershy flapped her wings in protest, obviously dissatisfied with him disturbing her sleep.
"Don't rush to sleep yet. Let's sense where Shui Bingyue is. Has something happened to her?"
Upon hearing Lin Shan's inquiry, Xiaodie tilted her head and the two tentacles on her head swayed left and right.
Suddenly the wings stopped flapping.
Immediately stunned!
Then it flew around him anxiously, trying to show him the way to a certain place.
Lin Shan naturally knew now that something had happened over there.
Shui Bingyue is his ally and has a symbiotic relationship with Xiaodie, so he must not fail to save her when in trouble.
Without a trace of ink, his consciousness immediately returned, turning into a streak of wind, thunder and rainbow light that rose into the sky and disappeared into the sky.
...
All the way north.
Bozhou is very long and narrow. There are dozens of state capitals along the coast, corresponding to the three sea areas. The northernmost one is Shuohai.
Along the Dawei Mountains, traveling day and night, he arrived at a place called Qinghuadu.
If I remember correctly, at Jingyang Academy, the old professor once told Lin Shan that Shui Bingyue came here to invite people.
And what he sees now:
This place is already in ruins, the ground is scorched black, there is no grass growing, and dust is flying everywhere. It is not difficult to imagine that there was a war not long ago!
The warring parties even shattered a section of the land port. Only the broken part could be seen in front, and the waves crashed against the shore one after another.
Lin Shan carefully surveyed the scene, and through the traces of the fight left on the ground and the active vitality fluctuations around him, he deduced that there should be at least 6-8 people on both sides of the war!
It is rare for monks in the Yuan Ying stage to fight so much.
He found ice fragments in it, which should be leftover from Shui Bingyue's magical power. It seemed that she was passive throughout the process.
On the other side of the scene, the opponent has a veteran with extremely rich fighting experience, most likely a late-stage Nascent Soul!
Xiaodie urged anxiously beside her, obviously very dissatisfied with Lin Shan's procrastination.
However, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Lin Shan naturally has to roughly judge the enemy's situation based on what is left on the road, and then make corresponding psychological expectations.
Especially since he was consuming real energy to fly regardless of the cost, he also needed to leave time to take a breath and recover his real energy.
If your condition is too bad when the time comes, it will not be of much use in the past, and you will put yourself in danger.
Next, take a short rest and continue moving forward with Xiaodie. Shui Bingyue should fight and retreat all the way north.
I encountered seven or eight encounter locations along the way.
Lin Shan breathed a sigh of relief and gradually realized that Shui Bingyue also had helpers around her, and she was not the only one.
At the beginning, the two sides were able to fight back and forth, but then something unexpected happened and the fighting power of this side dropped sharply. Then the balance became unbalanced and they were retreating steadily.
Especially in the battlefield at the back, the scope is getting smaller and smaller, and the resistance is getting weaker and weaker.
This made Lin Shan feel a sense of urgency, and even a surge of worry.
