The world of cultivating immortals does not raise second-rate goods

Chapter 50 Past events

Su Jianren is an elder. When he picks magical herbs, he doesn't pull them out one by one with his hands, but uses magic.

As far as the Tianyan Sect is concerned, as long as they don't all become bald all at once, it will be fine if they just turn a blind eye.

So when Su Jianren went to Wancao Garden to pick the earth spirit, Song Wei, who was in charge of the formation, immediately discovered that he had entered Wancao Garden.

Song Wei loves Ren Songran deeply and has always wanted to find an opportunity to kill Su Jianren for revenge.

In addition, Bian Chengfei and others also supported the killing of Su Jianren, so they turned a blind eye to the fight between the two elders in Wancao Garden. Bian Chengfei even helped stop Song Shan.

Then a fire broke out in Wancao Garden. The fire was so fierce that it burned most of the garden.

'No wonder Yu Mu specially told me and Jiang Yuan about the future direction of Tianyan Sect that day.'

Si Li exhaled softly, then smiled as brightly as a flower, and said to Yu Mu: "Senior brother, I understand, don't worry I won't tell anyone."

How could she tell it?
If Song Shan hadn't made pills to kill people, Yu Mu wouldn't have taken such a long detour and set fire to them.

No wonder everyone was dissatisfied with Song Shan just after he took office.

Who would like such a great leader?

"No." Yu Mu shook his head gently.

Si Li was confused: "No?"

Do you want me to completely break with Tianyan Sect?
Si Li felt a little sad.

I don’t want to work for Tianyan Sect, and I also want to stand on its opposite side and eliminate harm for the people, but, but...

But Dong Xuan was angry with me because of the grievances of the previous generation, and allowed Fu Sui to take me back to Tianyan Sect. Tianyan Sect is my sect. How can I point my sword at Tianyan Sect?

It's not that Si Li hasn't thought about this problem before, the result of thinking is this.

She would definitely not help the Tianyan Sect do evil. If someone wanted to take revenge on the Tianyan Sect, she would just pretend that she didn't know about it.

How can we not let people take revenge?
As long as the sun shines brightly and evildoers are punished, hatred will not grow wildly.

Seeing her frown gradually, Yu Mu gave her a distressed look and said slowly: "Well... when you heard about the fire in Wancao Garden that day, do you remember that Qu Zhong eavesdropped?"

"Well -" Si Li covered her mouth reflexively and opened her eyes wide.

"I killed him."

As he spoke, he took out a paper ball from the mustard bag and handed it to Si Li.

"I got it from Qu Zhong's desk."

Si Li took it in disbelief.

Unfolding the ball of paper, it was filled with densely written words and traces of smearing and editing.

The content was somewhat incoherent, but Yu Mu's name was circled in a red frame, and the words "Fire" and "Lihuo Palace" were altered many times by him.

Si Li, who knew the whole story, could roughly understand what was being written.

Qu Zhong eavesdropped that day and found that Yu Mu's behavior was very abnormal. He speculated that the fire was related to Lihuo Palace and Yu Mu, so he thought about telling Xiao Shen when he met him.

Unfortunately, Yu Mu reacted faster and directly killed and silenced him.

Yu Mu took the paper back and shook it. The paper burned instantly, turning into ashes and falling piece by piece. The breeze blew by, and the ashes were blown far away.

"So I'm not asking you to help me hide anything. Once Qu Zhong dies, Xiao Shen will definitely come to investigate the cause of death. You should think carefully about how to deal with Xiao Shen in the past two days.

Telling you the cause and effect of something also lets you know who is right and who is wrong. "

"Yes, I understand." Si Li said softly.

Yu Mu did not try to persuade her, and gave her enough time to think, and took her to the deep mountains, where there were traces of the Tianren Dan.

As soon as he came in, Si Li felt nauseated.

The alchemy furnace was set up in the open space outside. Although it had been broken into pieces, Si Li deduced from the fragments that the alchemy furnace was at least two people tall and that there was unused charcoal left next to it.

There are several caves. As soon as you get close to the cave entrance, you can see the clothes of various people, with excrement and filth remaining on the clothes.

Si Li couldn't bear it and begged in a low voice: "Brother, I have never doubted your words. I want to go out." "Okay."

Yu Mu took her sword and left in the air.

This time the two stopped at a small slope covered with flowers.

There is a stream gurgling next to it, orchids are stretching their bodies to their heart's content, and the fragrance of flowers is faint, fresh and elegant.

The flower farmer thought that sitting among the flowers would crush the flowers, and he was angry with his hoe. Yu Mu took out two gold leaves. The flower farmer turned from anger to joy, and his smile was wider than the flowers.

After a long time, Si Li calmed down and asked, "What about Jing Peilan?"

"Still investigating." Yu Mu said.

"Why did Jing Peilan betray Lihuo Palace?"

Yu Mu sighed.

The Jing family belongs to one of the eighteen surnames in Lihuo. There are high and low surnames. Every ten years, the Lihuo Palace ranks the eighteen surnames. The Jing family has always been outside the tenth place.

Jing Yuanshan, the head of the Jing family, said no, how could the Jing family always be at the rear of the crane?

After Jingyuanshan's hard work, Jingjia ranked eighth, which seemed to be the first time in a century that it entered the top ten.

The Jing family is prosperous, and the children of the Jing family also have important positions. Jing Peilan is in charge of the sales of elixirs in Yelang Kingdom.

Yelang Kingdom is not the territory of Lihuo Palace. There are two or three sects controlling the territory. Lihuo Palace is considered an outsider.

Since there are local snakes, it will be difficult to carry out the work.

As time went by, Jing Peilan became full of resentment and asked Jing Yuan Shan whether he could be transferred to another place (more money but less trouble), but Jing Yuan Shan refused.

Jing Peilan said that so and so is not as good as me, why should their territory be better than mine.

Jing Yuanshan said: How do you know they are not as good as you? They are worse than you.

After several blows, Jing Peilan became angry and thought that Jing Yuanshan was deliberately targeting her, so she had thoughts of betrayal.

According to other disciples' accounts, Song Shan saw that she was particularly good at calculations, and after he made his promise to her, he took Jing Peilan to the Tianyan Sect to take charge of Lingyu Peak's affairs.

Of course, Jing Peilan did not become the peak master of Lingyu Peak.

Afterwards, Song Shan abandoned her like a worn out shoe, and Lihuo Palace issued a killing order. The entire Jing family was implicated, and the family disciples were detained. Jing Yuanshan tracked down Jing Peilan.

A sarcastic smile appeared on Si Li's lips.

Traitors don't end well.

She didn't know what to say. Seeing Yu Mu's dismay, she casually said, "Is Jing Peilan good at settling accounts?"

"That's right." Yu Mu said disdainfully, "She's the one settling the scores... hmph..."

Jing Peilan's accounting feature is very simple, that is, finding ways to deduct money.

For example, in the villages under the Lihuo Palace, the people grew grain and sold the excess grain to the city. The price of rice in the city was five cents per dou of rice.

The purchase price is three cents per dou rice.

The most indispensable thing in Lihuo Palace is money. In order to increase the enthusiasm of the people to grow grain, they were told that the purchase price was five yuan per dou rice, and Lihuo Palace made up the difference.

In the autumn of one year, Jing Peilan was responsible for supervising the grain merchants who went to the countryside to harvest rice.

She saw that the farmers looked confident about Lihuo Palace's subsidy, but they were not grateful to Lihuo Palace at all.

What a sin to give such ungrateful farmers so much money.

So she deducted one yuan of subsidy for each bucket of rice, and the farmers sold it to the grain merchants for four yuan per bucket of rice.

He was quickly reported by the people.

When Jing Yuanshan found out, he beat her up, and felt that his own family had to be saved, so he begged for her to be sent to the Yelang Kingdom to be in charge - the local snakes in the Yelang Kingdom were not easy to deal with, and no one wanted to go.
