Chapter 265 Getting better?
Chapter 265 Getting better?
Kang Dabao had just returned to the sect, and he went to the middle of Huo Ying's bedroom to see Kang Changyi feeding. This little guy was like his father, with a good appetite and was not afraid of strangers.
Kang Dabao only stood there for a short while before he saw that Kang Changyi's pink little mouth had no intention of stopping and kept sucking. Just by looking at her, he knew that she would grow up to be a good girl.
Huo Ying had just seen Master Kang come to visit her after giving birth for such a long time. She was happy and aggrieved at the same time. After Master Kang promised to come and rest in the evening, Huo Ying felt relieved.
Nowadays, all the people in Chongming clan praise the girl from Qinghan Court for her kindness and generosity, saying that she is worthy of being the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family.
Huo Ying was the only one who was worried. If the other party just made a slight move, Kang Dabao would be snatched away from her, leaving her and her widowed mother alone with no one to take care of them.
After all, Huo Ying didn't think that she was even a finger better than the eldest daughter of the Fei family.
Kang Changyi, the eldest son, was unable to keep the great Kang master in the room for too long.
He had a lot of things to do. Just after he returned to the sect, he received a letter from Deng Baichuan presented by Duan Anle.
Just as he expected, the newly appointed Fangshi Worshiper Yue Feng put a lot of pressure on Deng Shiwei. After all, the former was a descendant of the Yue family who was admired by even Sima Fei. If he really wanted to cause trouble, how could Deng Baichuan, a Qigong cultivator, stop him?
However, after receiving the letter, Master Kang did not leave immediately, but returned to the cloud room and wrote a letter back to Deng Baichuan.
The letter was mostly filled with nonsense about not being too hasty and waiting for the right time.
This was not entirely a perfunctory remark, but Kang Dabao did not think that Yue Feng would stir up trouble in Chongming Market right from the start.
In addition, since the reconstruction of Chongming Market, the two Simas have been running it like an iron barrel.
Thinking back to Sima Fei's nonchalant expression when they were having dinner at the Fei family, Master Kang was almost certain that he must have a backup plan in Chongming Market.
These old guys have many tricks up their sleeves. Yue Feng's entry into the game seems to be a beautiful counterattack made by the local faction headed by the Yue family of Hancheng against the people from the capital. But it is also possible that it is a clever move by Sima Fei to lure the enemy into a trap.
In Kang Dabao's opinion, in the current situation, it is best to remain calm and cautious.
In short, Master Kang doesn't really want to move. As for Deng Baichuan, a native of the capital who has always looked down on the local cultivators of Yunjiao Province, it is hard to say whether he can live in peace with Yue Feng.
Good words cannot persuade a damned ghost. Kang Dabao estimated that the two sides would see blood sooner or later. By then, even a small place like Chongmingfang City might become a battlefield for the two sides to fight.
By that time, Chongming Zong would find it difficult to escape from it no matter from which angle, and if he got involved, it would definitely be a troublesome matter.
After sending the letter to persuade Deng Baichuan, Master Kang walked out of the cloud room, passed through the gate of his own courtyard, and then placed the training mechanical puppet purchased from Shujianmen into the mechanical puppet building.
The training robot that was bought from the shop in Qiaogongbao was too weak, and was probably weaker than the casual cultivators of the same level. It was previously adjusted to the sixth level of Qi training, but it was difficult to defeat Zhang Le, who had just entered the fourth level of Qi training and was not good at fighting.
The grade and craftsmanship of the stolen goods brought back by Master Kang this time were much higher than the others. It was definitely a fine product that was rarely sold in Qiaogong Castle. Not only could it simulate a cultivator up to the ninth level of Qi training, but its strength was also significantly higher.
Kang Dabao then called Zhang Le and Mo'er, two disciples with lesser skills, to try it separately.
Perhaps because they had taken too many advantages over the training robot puppet in the past, the two girls underestimated their enemies and were both defeated by the training robot puppets of the same level.
The head of the Kang family was not unhappy about this at all, but was rather happy about it.
However, given his frugal nature, he would not easily give up the training robot puppet. After thinking about it, he decided to find a time to sell it to the Lu family at a discount.
In the past two years, Lu Xun has made some small fortune following Emperor Chongming. As long as Kang Dabao offers a fair price, it would be easy for him to refuse to buy it.
After all, what the head of Kangda wants to sell is not something useless. It can always be used by small families to cultivate their children.
After doing all this, Kang Dabao went to the Hall of Good Deeds to collect the Moon Scale Stone Juice collected by the disciples.
The Chongming Sect's Shan Gong Hall is currently lacking someone to take charge of it. Previously, Yuan Jin was responsible for this matter. However, Yuan Jin has been in seclusion these days, so he handed the matter over to the stupid kid Ye Pingshui.
As soon as Ye Pingshui saw the master coming, he moved quickly and took out all the Moon Scale Stone juice he had collected.
Such spiritual items are not of high grade, and collecting them is just a waste of time. During the days when Master Kang was away from the sect, the Good Deeds Hall collected a total of eleven or twelve stones of Moon Scale Stone Juice, but only gave out less than a hundred good deeds. It should be noted that this was the result of Kang Dabao raising the market price three times.
Among them, Ye Pingshui received the most, receiving four or five times as much as other fellow disciples in the same period of time.
That's why Master Kang asked a few more questions. It wasn't because he was afraid that the kid would abuse his power for personal gain, but because he was really curious.
Kang Dabao understood after listening for a while.
Although Ye Pingshui was an honest boy who was not very smart, it was not difficult for him to think of using the few connections left by Yuan Jin to find Qi Duoluo in Xuanwei City.
Ye Pingshui not only took all the Moon Scale Stone Juice from the Qi family's weapon refining shop, but also, through the latter's help, obtained a lot from several weapon refining shops in Xuanwei City.
He also signed long-term contracts with Qi Duoluo and those weapon makers, agreeing that whenever a certain number of weapons were collected, they would be sent to Chongming Sect for sale.
It takes a bit of effort to preserve spiritual materials like Moon Scale Stone Juice. Instrumentmasters don't use it much themselves, and there are even fewer cultivators who have sought to purchase this spiritual material. Therefore, many shops have no interest in refining and selling it.
But now that it can really be exchanged for spirit stones, I believe that those low-level weapon masters will be able to spend some time collecting and preserving more of them in their daily lives.
In the future, when Chongming’s disciples collect the materials, it will be much faster.
After all, for the bottom people in any industry, they are not afraid of working hard. It is a good thing to earn one more broken spirit and a little to supplement their cultivation.
Master Kang understood the story clearly and praised Ye Pingshui highly, which made the latter unable to hide the joy on his face, and his gums were exposed with joy.
However, it was a bit of a stretch to use the juice of the Twelve Moon Scale Stones for the first practice. In addition, Kang Dabao had promised to sleep with Huo Ying tonight, so he put the idea of practicing "The True Explanation of the Ancient Original Body of Beiye Palace" on hold for the time being.
Thinking about going into seclusion tomorrow, I decided to first refine the Yellow Dragon Hundred Leaf Pill that I got from Jiang Qing, and then come out to see if the amount of Moon Scale Stone Juice is enough.
Since he had nothing to do, Kang Dabao thought of going to the Sutra Hall to see if the children were working hard. However, Pei Yi came out to visit him at this time.
“Junior brother, your progress in cultivation is quite fast,” seeing Pei Yi’s cultivation progress further and finally breaking through to the eighth level of Qi training, a hint of joy appeared on the brows of Sect Leader Kang.
Among his fellow disciples, Kang Dabao has more confidence in Pei Yi's ability to establish a Taoist foundation than Yuan Jin, who practices the White Ape Sutra but has great hidden dangers.
This is because this junior brother has always been steady in his practice, and the "Fengcao Sutra" he practices is also very moderate and peaceful.
Among the remaining few people, Ye Zhengwen lost one eye, which strictly speaking could be said to be a defective body, so his chances of building a foundation were indeed lower than those of ordinary people;
Zhou Yixiu is almost 80 years old, but his cultivation has not yet reached the late stage of Qi training. If there is no good fortune, theoretically, it is impossible for him to build a foundation.
As for Chu Huer, he is of similar age to Zhou Yixiu. Although he is full of ambition, it is a little late for him. If he wants to establish a foundation in Taoism, it will be difficult for him.
Therefore, among these fellow disciples, Pei Yi has the greatest chance of successfully building his foundation.
In addition, Master Kang has now achieved great accomplishments in wood-based martial arts. After telling Pei Yi about his insights into foundation building, it is likely that his chances of successfully building the foundation will be greatly increased.
Pei Yi has the aptitude of three spiritual roots, so according to his current cultivation speed, in about five or six years, he will be able to cultivate to the peak of Qi training and try to build the foundation.
The Yimu Green Willow Heart that Qin Sufutuoshan Gong had previously given to Kang Dabao has not been moved yet, and is just right for Pei Yi's use.
By then, the Chongming Sect will have three foundation-building members, all of whom are less than a hundred years old. This is enough to influence the entire Pingrong County's future structure for the next hundred years.
"It's all thanks to the hard work of the headmaster and my talent." Pei Yi subconsciously wanted to say some empty words, but was stopped by the headmaster Kang.
Although Kang Dabao always told his disciples that brothers, no matter how close they were, were one body, even though Pei Yi had been back in the sect for a few years, he was still polite.
This does not mean that he has a shallow relationship with the head of Kangda. On the contrary, after going through so many things, Pei Yi can be said to admire his head brother very much.
But compared with Yuan Jin and Jiang Qing, Kang Dabao's two close junior brothers, he is still a little less close.
This is true for Pei Yi, and even more so for Zhou Yixiu and Chu Huer.
On the contrary, Ye Zhengwen, who was not considered early, might have had a life-and-death friendship with Kang Dabao when they were young. Although he usually argued with Sect Leader Kang and even seldom called him "Senior Brother Sect Leader" when they met,
But when it comes to the relationship between the two, it can actually be said that they are quite close.
"Junior brother, your cultivation has just broken through, so you should consolidate your realm first. Don't go into seclusion for the next few days." Kang Dabao looked at Pei Yi and saw that the ripples of spiritual energy on his body had not yet dissipated, so he expressed his concern.
"Junior brother, I know." Pei Yi saw a trace of worry between the brows of the headmaster Kang, but he asked again: "Master, did you get any news during your trip to the alliance to discuss matters? Did something happen?"
Kang Dabao had originally planned to wait until his fellow disciples came out of retreat before discussing matters, but since Pei Yi had asked, Sect Leader Kang did not hide anything and explained everything that had happened on this trip.
Pei Yi frowned more and more as he listened. After thinking for a while, he said, "In my humble opinion, we still need to be more vigilant. We should do these three things first:
First, we need to send a message to Que'er and the others and explain the pros and cons to them. In the future, unless it is a critical moment, our Chongming caravan will not go through Baisha County or even the several trade routes bordering Baisha County. Second, our Chongming Sect's mountain protection formation is still the red light cloud battle formation that the head brother arranged before the foundation building, and it is modified by combining the half of the black water poisonous wood formation that was taken back from the Grass Witch Sect.
Although it can barely be called a second-level formation, it is really useless when facing a strong enemy like the Changning Sect. I am afraid I will have to spend a lot of money to buy a higher-quality formation to protect my disciples.
Thirdly, please ask the head brother to go to Qinghan Courtyard. If the golden-winged owl hovering in the sky can be used by our family at the same time, the safety of the disciples in the sect will be greatly guaranteed.
At the same time, we also need to warn our disciples to be on guard when they go out. After all, Yunjiao Province has been almost peaceful for the past two years, and they have lost some of their vigilance."
Kang Dabao nodded repeatedly after listening to this. Many of the things Pei Yi said coincided with his own ideas, and were even more thoughtful than he had thought.
"The first point is just as Junior Brother said. I had already passed it on to Que'er before returning to the sect. I think he should have received it by now. As for the matter of purchasing the mountain protection formation, we can wait for the third brother to come out of retreat and have him go to Hancheng or Xuanwei City to see if there is anything suitable.
If not, I will write to the Shan family of Feiyue. I heard that they had a relative in the past who was a well-known second-level independent cultivator. I will see if the head of the Shan family can help introduce him and build a custom one for my family.
And the last one, the Golden-Winged Owl? Hmm, I'll go to her house and talk to her about it."
Pei Yi ignored the difficulty on the face of the headmaster Kang, but after thinking for a while, he interrupted again: "Senior Brother, can we invite the formation master of the Fei family in Yingzhou to come over?"
Kang Dabao was slightly stunned, as if he was very tempted by the proposal. After all, compared with the formation masters of varying levels in the outside world, the level of the formation master brought by Fei Nan'ao from the Yingzhou tribe was self-evident.
Just do it when you want to. The next day when the sun was rising, Master Kang pulled out from Huo Ying's plump and mature body.
Even though he was a little tired after the morning clouds and evening rain, he couldn't keep Kang Dabao for too long.
Even though Huo Ying asked him to stay softly, Sect Leader Kang did not say much. He got up, picked up his pants, straightened his clothes, rode his old donkey out of the sect, and came to Fei Shuhe's door.
Fei Shuhe was standing leisurely in the courtyard, also just getting up.
Kang Dabao saw that she was not wearing any makeup at this time, but she was already three parts gorgeous and seven parts delicate. Compared with the mature Deacon Huo, she had a completely different style of elegance.
Fei Shuhe has been practicing more diligently recently than before. Although she is younger than Jiang Qing, her cultivation is already one step ahead of Pei Yi, having reached the ninth level of Qi training.
"Master Kang is a rare guest. I wonder what brings you here today."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Master Kang actually heard a hint of resentment in Fei Shuhe's words. This was quite similar to the tone Huo Ying used when she left the house just now.
"I came here this time to bother you with something." Kang Dabao showed a trace of difficulty on his face and briefly explained his purpose.
Fei Shuhe, who was sitting opposite, did not show any change in expression when he heard the last part. After confirming what the head of Kang Da said, Fei Shuhe turned his head away and played with the bird on his fingertips that was used to saying auspicious words.
After Kang Dabao was left alone for a while, when Yu'er brought the tea, Fei Shuhe's eyes flashed with disappointment, and she said, "It's up to you. You can discuss the subsequent trivial matters with Nanny Sun, and you don't need to come to me."
Kang Dabao was stunned for a moment, then responded. When he saw Fei Shuhe getting up to leave, he stretched out his hand to stop him, and spoke without thinking: "Then when can I come to see you again?"
After this question, Fei Shuhe was stunned again. Just these short ten words seemed to have quietly grabbed a corner of her heart.
"Is this guy really a fool?" Fei Shuhe's face showed some embarrassment. An idea popped up in his mind, but he quickly dismissed it.
"Can a man who can go to a young widow to warm her bed be a modest gentleman? Isn't Momo an old hand at playing with people's hearts?"
"You...just go find Nanny Sun yourself." Fei Shuhe couldn't explain what he felt at the moment, and he left his boudoir as if he was fleeing in panic.
Kang Dabao didn't know whether his actions had touched the heartstrings of his wife, so he was a little absent-minded and followed Yu'er to meet Nanny Sun.
The old woman seemed a little more respectful than before.
After all, even in the Yingzhou clan where many high-level cultivators of the Fei family gathered, not every maiden of the Fei family who came as a dowry had a son-in-law with the Ice Leaf foundation to serve her.
After Sect Leader Kang explained his intention in brief to Nanny Sun, the latter did not delay at all. She first called the beast master and ordered him to follow Kang Dabao back and obey his orders.
He also called a servant of the Fei family and asked him to bring a document signed by Fei Shuhe himself back to the Sheshan Hall branch in Xuanwei City to ask the formation master of the family to purchase formations for the Chongming Sect. All expenses would be charged to the Qinghan Courtyard account.
The two difficult tasks that Kang Dabao thought were actually easily solved by an old maid like Nanny Sun. It was really a bit sad.
After returning to the sect, Master Kang entrusted the beastmaster to Duan Anle to accompany him. A few days later, he told these things to the Taoist Black Shoes who had just come out of retreat. After hearing this, the latter shook his head and laughed:
"You should have changed your temper a long time ago. I told you before that since you can't take off the hat of Fei family's legitimate son-in-law, why are you resisting? If you had borrowed his family's resources earlier, your Chongming Sect would have risen long ago. Why are you afraid of that useless Changning Sect now?"
What the Taoist Heilu said was absolutely correct. Kang Dabao could only smile bitterly after hearing it.
The beastmaster sent by Nanny Sun acted quickly. In just over half a month, all the disciples of Chongming, including Jiang Qing, received a communication talisman stone.
The beast master had just finished his work when the Fei family's formation master, who was attracted by the birth of a child, soon arrived.
The latter was equally dedicated and first tried his best to dismantle the mountain protection formation that was cobbled together by the head of Kang University and his students. Then he purchased a lot of high-quality materials and rebuilt the structure of a six-star Gangyan formation.
According to the formation master himself, if everything goes well, it will only take three years to set up this large formation of the second-class upper grade.
This was already a pretty fast speed, and Kang Dabao knew that he had gotten a great deal.
Not to mention the cost of the materials for this large formation, just hiring a second-grade top-grade formation master to work for him for three years would be enough to consume a large portion of the spirit stones he earned from the spirit stone mines. Fei Shuhe's face was truly valuable.
Comparing yourself with others will really make you angry. Many independent cultivators have fought for their entire lives to build their foundation, and have experienced countless hardships and obstacles, and in the end they have only saved up a few spirit stones to pass on to their descendants.
I'm afraid that none of them made as much as the head of the Kang family, who was so thick-skinned, by going to Qinghan Courtyard and saying a few soft words to his wife.
By the time the Six-Star Gangyan Formation took shape, the formation master had been in Chongming Sect for more than a year. During this period, Kang Dabao had always thought that Changning Sect, which he had always thought would take revenge, was very quiet.
This finally freed him up to refine the Yellow Dragon Hundred Leaf Pill thoroughly and consolidate his foundation-building state, and he also collected two portions of Moon Scale Stone Juice required for the first practice of "The True Explanation of the Ancient Original Body of Beiye Palace".
However, this body-building technique was not as easy to practice as previously expected. Master Kang failed twice, and each time he suffered fascia rupture and bone and flesh displacement.
During the most dangerous time, two of the twelve meridians showed signs of bursting.
It was only by enduring this untold pain that Kang Dabao was able to barely get started.
In this light, the statement in this classic book: "Regardless of spiritual roots, as long as one's physical strength reaches that of an average person, one can easily get started", the four words "average person" in this condition are still very debatable.
Sect Leader Kang believed that he had once received the spiritual dew that cleansed his bones and marrow, and that his bone structure must be considered good compared to those of his peers.
But even so, practicing "The True Explanation of the Ancient Original Body of Beiye Palace" is so dangerous. You know, Master Kang still has Yu Jue to help him. If it were someone else, there would really be a risk of his physical body collapsing.
In addition, two good things happened to Master Yu Kang in the past year or so.
First, Brother Yi had finally grown all his teeth, so he could eat some spiritual food to nourish himself, and Huo Ying's plump breasts were finally free;
Secondly, he could now enter Qinghan Courtyard without anyone notifying him, and could go straight into Fei Shuhe's bedroom.
During this year, Master Kang no longer had to worry about finding someone to play chess with (although he never won during this year), and he could also enjoy snacks made by his wife from time to time.
According to Kang Dabao's own thoughts, if things could continue to develop in this way, it would only be a matter of time before Emperor Chongming would invite the Earl of Nan'an to attend the banquet.
But at this time, an exciting piece of good news came from the state court: "The Yunjiao State Court Sima Mansion Sima Gun Shilu has made a fake elixir. Yunjiao State Earl Kuang Liuting made a memorial for him, requesting that he be granted the title of Jin County Baron and be granted the title of Imperial Noble for three generations, and the whole province shall be notified!"
Upon hearing that Gun Jia Sima, who had always taken good care of him, had been certified as the master of elixirs, Kang Dabao was not very happy.
It was raining heavily and the sky was dark, which made him feel uneasy. He put aside the laziness that had recently arisen from his beautiful wife and concubines and plunged into his retreat room.
He closed his eyes tightly, and the whisper of Fernando that he had said seemed to ring in his ears again: "There are still people who will die!"
