The Taoist Priest of the Supernatural World

Chapter 299 The Background of the Dog Owner
Sitting in the room, looking at the teapot on the middle table, Qiu Sheng suddenly glared:

"Lao Shi... Lao Shi, come over here and take a look. Is there something wrong with this teapot?"

After hearing what Qiu Sheng said, Shi Shaojian, who was sitting on the bed, holding the bead that was almost completely corroded and refining the mana in his body, felt a little bored:
"…What's wrong? Since the old man and Uncle Bei Ming have brought us here, is there any danger?"

If they encounter a danger that even the old man and Bei Minghu cannot resolve, the two of them will just be sending themselves to death.

They are clear about their goals.

This time I came out to gain experience from following the old man.

If he could complete the Dharma Circle when he returned to the interior of the country, that would be an even bigger surprise. Maybe even the master at home would be so excited that he would die.

Fa Yun Zhou Tian is in his twenties.

No matter which sect he is in, he is the real pillar and a true seed of immortality.

If you meet those big guys whose Dharma lineage is about to be cut off due to the changes of the times.

That can really be raised as a treasure.

It is definitely a seedling among thousands of hectares of land.

Although he was complaining about Qiu Sheng, Shi Shaojian got off the bed and walked to the table:

"What's so good about a broken teapot? Although the free food and drinks do cost a lot of money, it shouldn't be a good reason for him to trip us up, right?"

He has the financial resources to build an entire small building outside the pass, and also provides free food and drink. The power behind this person is naturally unfathomable.

It's impossible to tamper with the teapot.

However, when he came over and saw the teapot, Shi Shaojian couldn't help but pause:
"You know what, this teapot really has a story..."

When talking about this person, Shi Shaojian turned the teapot over, and then saw the signature at the bottom:
"Damn! I didn't realize that this ordinary teapot was made during the Chongzhen period?"

"This is an old teapot from hundreds of years ago. It looks like it was made in an official kiln. Is the sponsor behind it so rich?"

Antiques are valuable in prosperous times, and gold is valuable in troubled times. Although this saying goes, even in troubled times, antiques are still very valuable.

Don’t say anything else.

Nowadays, antiques from hundreds of years ago can basically be pawned to provide enough food and drink for a family for many years.

What is this thing in front of you?

This teapot is hundreds of years old and was produced by an official kiln.

If it was just their house, it would be fine, but it seems that there is this thing in every room in this small building.

It's scary just thinking about it.

What a profound foundation this requires! This is really like treating money like nothing!

Thinking of this, the two of them looked at each other as if they had telepathy, and then began to scan the room up and down.

The main thing is a treasure hunt.

It was also because of this that the two of them found in this room not only beds from the Qing Dynasty, but also tables and chairs from the Ming Dynasty, calligraphy and paintings from the Song Dynasty, and even Tang Sancai.

Although these things are not known to people, they are not made by the top calligraphy masters or big names.

But this is already pretty awesome.

"A whole room full of antiques. No wonder Uncle Bei Ming always says that the Jing family has an extraordinary origin. It turns out that they are really rich."

When it comes to this, even Shi Shaojian couldn't help but feel a little envious at this moment.

Generally speaking, it takes three generations of support for a family to rise.

The first generation was pure money.

The second generation is a transition from money to power.

The third generation has complete control over power.

At this time, after a hundred years, this family finally gained its foothold.

The obvious change is from the first generation with golden and magnificent decorations to the third generation which seems plain but full of mysteries.

You can see it from this small building.

Every low-key item in the seemingly ordinary room is an antique.

There are countless similar rooms in this small building.

And this is just for entertaining guests.

If we really find their family’s storehouse, we can’t imagine how much gold, silver, jewelry, silks, satins, and gold antiques are inside.

This is definitely a real big family.

"When Huang Chao entered Beijing, he probably killed a similar large family. Not to mention Huang Chao, even I was envious..."

Shi Shaojian was born into an extraordinary family and had the status of a true Maoshan disciple, so his life was not much worse than his.

But here's the thing.

Even if he was a true disciple of Maoshan, he couldn't help but feel envious when he saw these valuable things.

This is the confidence of a big family.

Don't talk about the Maoshan heritage, but how could the expenses of an entire sect and a family be the same?

Moreover, although these big families seem to be in seclusion, they are all connected to real power.

That's a lot of money.

Watching the two little guys, Qiu Sheng and Shi Shaojian, rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the house, and then checking to see what era the things in the house are from.

Bei Minghu, who was lying on a bed, chuckled:
"Do you really think that sentence, one year as a prefect, one hundred thousand silver coins is a joke? These big families are all over the world."

"What you see is just a tiny fraction of what they have. The many things in their family are truly eye-popping."

When he said this, Bei Minghu laughed, and then pointed at the small building and said:
"The most famous thing about the Chonglou Jing family is their special method of using the Hutian technique to collect and hide many scenes. This building is just a small building."

"You have never seen the true heritage of the Chonglou Jing family. Their so-called Chonglou is really a building with many layers upon layers."

"Only by actually visiting the Jing family can one understand what the heritage of a thousand-year-old family is, and what the Chonglou Jing family is..."

When talking about this, Bei Minghu seemed to have some emotion.

He really went to Chonglou back then.

Although, he followed the old leader to find a stronghold of the Chonglou Jing family and went to their door.

But with just a quick glance, they also saw the real base of the Chonglou Jing family.

To put it bluntly.

Relying on this special Hutian technique, the Jing family of Chonglou created many pavilions and towers that are more prosperous than any imperial dynasty on earth.

It really is. Looking around, it looks like a hundred-meter-high building, stacked one on top of another, where generations of the Jing family live.

There are red lights hanging between each building.

Looking around, it seemed as if the entire sky was covered with red lanterns.

It seemed like a paradise. It was then that he realized that these big families, on the surface, seemed to be inferior to many immortal sects in terms of foundation.

But these big families really have a lot of things.

Listening to Bei Ming Hu's words and looking at his expression, Qiu Sheng approached Bei Ming Lake with some curiosity:
"Uncle Bei Ming, can you tell me in detail how you got to the Jing family in Chong Lou that year?"

He now also knows that with the gradual decline of spiritual energy, some of the mysterious existence of the spiritual practice have been hidden between the yin and yang realms.

To be honest, he is now approaching the Dharma Ending Age.

It's true that he has no knowledge.

But it was precisely because of this that he was curious. After all, some things might not be seen in the future, but it was impossible for him not to even hear them, right?
He was also very curious about this strange era.

Maybe what is just an ordinary rumor at this time may become a great opportunity when he encounters it later.

Moreover, the uncle in front of him had done some rebellion before.

Is a member of a real entrepreneurial team.

No matter whether they succeed or not, among those who have made a name for themselves in the entire Kyushu land, who is an easy person to deal with?

Not to mention being famous throughout the country like Uncle Bei Ming, being famous in one province is already amazing.

Maybe it will be recorded in history books.

Seeing how attentive Qiu Sheng was, Bei Minghu first glanced at the old man lying on the other bed next to him.

When he was sure that the old man was really resting, Bei Minghu smiled and said:
"I was still young back then, and when we started our business together, the old leader was already well-known all over the world."

"So, with the old leader leading the way, I was only responsible for following the old leader and taking advantage of the power of the tiger."

When it comes to this, even Bei Minghu feels a little embarrassed:
"Haha, in fact, the reason why our Qingyang Sect was able to make such a big noise at that time was mainly because the old leader extorted a large sum of food and grass from the Chonglou Jing family."

It seems that what they did back then was indeed a bit unkind, but since they were said to be rebelling, it seems that there were really few good people among them.

Hearing Bei Ming Hu say this, Qiu Sheng asked curiously:

"The Chonglou Jing family was able to hide all the overlapping buildings, so how did you find them?"

Judging from the current situation, the buildings of the Chonglou Jing family have been opened outside the enemy's base camp, and the Fuso people have not found them.

It's impossible that the Qingyang Sect was more powerful than the entire country of Fuso at that time, right?

Seeing Qiu Sheng's curious look, Bei Minghu cleared his throat and then gave him some inside information:

"Little guy, you are still young, right? You should know that there are no people in these big families who are easy to get along with."

"Do you really think that they can provide you with food and drink for free? This big family may have some patriotic intentions."

"But it is undeniable that most of their decisions are based on their own interests."

When he said this, Bei Minghu paused for a moment, then continued:
"Don't think that just because the Chonglou Jing family is rich and powerful, they are really that powerful and invincible."

"These big families may have been passed down from ancient times, or they may have a long history, but how many powerful people can they have?"

"With a thousand years of experience, they are more than capable of protecting themselves, but if they really want to do something drastic, they are still no match for the truly powerful."

"Oh, if they are really that powerful, then what's the point of calling them a big family? Wouldn't it be better to just list them on the same level as Maoshan in terms of immortal inheritance?"

In the spiritual world, whoever has the bigger fist has the truth. If these people really have such big fists, why would they still need to hide?
"They were indeed hiding very deeply back then, but our old leader is not someone who is easy to deal with."

"Do you really think that our Qingyang Sect has no foundation? As the leader of the sect, how could his methods not be tough?"

"We even dared to attack the imperial court. Isn't it just a big family? If we were not afraid of harming the believers below, we would have defeated the Jing family back then!"

Looking at Bei Minghu's bandit-like look, Qiu Sheng nodded in agreement:

“…That makes sense!”

Now that he has a supporting actor, he will naturally be willing to talk endlessly.

The Bei Ming Tiger was originally still and incomplete.

But when he found these interesting things, he was naturally willing to show off how knowledgeable he was when he was young.

"In fact, the Chonglou Jing family did have some background back then, but they didn't make a move due to various reasons."

"But really, who doesn't have something in their hands? Do they really think we can look up to them when they look down on us?"

"That's why they were so noisy back then. Otherwise, our Qingyang Sect would have wiped them out long ago."

Although he said so, Bei Minghu also knew that what he said seemed a bit boastful.

If they had been able to wipe out the Chonglou Jing family back then and take out all their family heritage, the Qingyang Sect would not have failed later.

Although they did extort a large sum of food and supplies from the clan, it was not enough to cause any serious damage to the Jing family.

Big families lack everything except money, otherwise so many entrepreneurial teams would not have to rob the big families every time.

Based on what he knew.

When the White Lotus Sect, the Red King Sect, and the White Yang Sect started their businesses, they all seemed to have borrowed food and supplies from the local big families.

It has long been a convention.

For a large family, the most important thing is to give up some food and grass to keep themselves safe.

If these people were allowed to do something wrong, perhaps half of the thousand-year-old family's foundation would be destroyed.

After all, they even dare to rebel, so why would they be afraid of you, a so-called thousand-year-old family?

They all live in the spiritual world.

Do you really think that no one knows who else's background?

For those who are involved in entrepreneurship, getting a sum of money means they already have the initial capital.

Next we can recruit soldiers and buy horses.

As for fighting these big families to death, that's not necessary.

After all, to be honest, as long as those who are involved in the business try to scare these people with a few glares, this big family will show their best attitude.

If you want money, give money, if you want people, give people.

Spending other people’s money helps them avoid disasters.

If you don't kill them, you may still have a chance to blackmail them in the future. But if you really kill them, who knows what kind of people they may know.

After all, people have had a compromising mindset since ancient times.

"The reason why this small building was not found by the Fusang group is that the Jing family's building-reinforcing technique is quite special."

"But on the other hand, naturally, the big figures from various sects and schools also gave up some things to help him shield the secrets of heaven."

When he said this, he paused for a moment, then continued:
"Don't underestimate those who are good at magic. To be honest, these guys can do well on their own no matter what era it is."

"If you encounter such a big liar in the future, make friends with them if you can, but if you can't, stay away from them."

"If all else fails, then find a way to kill them. If we really let them get away, there will be endless disasters!"

When he spoke to the end, Bei Ming Hu also became serious.
