Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 363 Discussion
Ten days later, in the Chongming Sect, the headmaster's courtyard
"Outsiders all say that once Tie Liuyun gained power, he looked down on everyone else, and his nature as a mountain wolf was exposed. I think that you, Master Kang, are not much inferior to Tie Liuyun and his ilk." Ye Zhengwen lightly placed a move and secured the victory.

"Oh, look at what you said." Kang Dabao's expression suddenly turned ugly. It was unclear whether it was because Ye Zhengwen had touched a sore spot, or because he had not lost a game of chess for a long time, but today he was defeated miserably on the chessboard.

Ye Zhengwen didn't even wait for Master Kang to admit defeat before he picked up the chess piece.

At this time, he was still talking, and continued, "Tie Chenshi wanted to protect Xuanyue Sect. The sooner he could pick the fruits in Dingzhou Camp, the sooner he could suppress the arrogance of the people coming from the capital. Even if he couldn't save the entire Xuanyue Sect, he wanted to save Linghu You's life again.

Sima Gong was loyal to the king and devoted to his work. He saw the interests clearly, and took advantage of the fact that Sima Fei was still in seclusion and Zhu was unable to unify the entire Jingji faction, so he deliberately followed Tie Qianshi's words to set up a ladder for Nan'an Bo to consider the overall situation.

Although Lord Bo knew the right and wrong of this matter, he was a fake Dan after all, and he had more than a thousand disciples under him. He was very important to the Dingzhou camp. How could he not be reluctant to let him go? !

With your eyesight, you can't fail to see these things. But you still want to embarrass that uncle. Why do you do this? In your eyes, is Feng Wan really that valuable? "

"Hualala" Kang Dabao didn't answer him, but waved his hand with a stern face, and the chess pieces were separated into black and white and fell back into the chess box.

Then, without even looking at Ye Zhengwen's ugly expression, he took the initiative to make another move.

"Speak, you can't think clearly!" Ye Zhengwen did not tolerate him and shouted loudly. The sound of the wind was so fierce that it almost overturned the stone table that had been inherited for a long time.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Since I've offended you, then let me offend you to death. I've suffered losses here, and I can't suffer losses again. I have an enemy who is a fake Dan. If I can't get rid of him with the power of the Earl of Nan'an, I don't know how serious the consequences will be." Kang Dabao's eyes showed a trace of sadness.

After he finished speaking, he did not even look at Ye Zhengwen. He stood up from his seat, walked to the bare yellow poplar tree in the yard, put his head behind his back, and sighed softly:

"Tie Liuyun is determined to follow the Yue family of Hancheng to rise to the top. The conflict between him and the Jingji faction in the state court is almost irreconcilable. Sooner or later, he will offend him.

As for Yue Jing, he also feels resentment towards us because of the death of Yue Lan at the hands of Uncle Hei Lu. He must have taken action in the interior, but he just hasn't had time to act yet.

Since they can't tolerate my family here, it's better to follow my Yue family's path and go on with all our heart. My uncle is about to form a pill, but they still don't know how to restrain themselves. There must be something strange about this, so I used to do some face-saving work with them.

But if I continue to be so coy, my uncle will not tolerate us for long."

What he said was not wrong. Ye Zhengwen did not say anything for a while, but just tapped the chess pieces casually, and the courtyard followed with a clattering sound.

After a long while, he finally spoke, then shook his head and said, "This is a simple truth, and it is not wrong, but you can't hide it from me. If it weren't for Feng Wan's incident, even if you wanted to take Linghu You's life, you would not bear the price of offending Nan'an Bo.

Even if we offend Tie Liuyun, we will still have to bear the consequences. Don't think that the matter will be over after Nan'an Bo orders us to withdraw from Xuanyue Gate. At that time, as long as Dingzhou Camp says that there are no more people available, do you think the state court will nominate us? ! "

"You stupid bastard." Not knowing whether Ye Zhengwen was right or wrong, Kang Dabao just shook his head and laughed.

The former's expression immediately changed, and he warned in a serious tone, "Being soft-hearted is a disease. Those who have accomplished great things, those who have become immortals, who doesn't have a heart of stone?!"

The corners of Kang Da's mouth curled up slightly, and he sighed: "I know that being soft-hearted is a disease, but I also know that if I really become hard-hearted, I'm afraid that even after becoming an immortal, I won't feel anything."

Ye Zhengwen was stunned for a long while and did not try to persuade him any further.

The two stood side by side, with only the sound of the wind flowing through the courtyard, until Wu Meng knocked on the Lingqi door.

The precocious child with a pigtail hairstyle back then has now grown into a tall and strong man with profound martial arts skills.

Although Wu Meng is a mortal, he is not only well-known in Chongming City, but also has good relationships with new disciples. After all, Wu Meng serves the headmaster and elders who many disciples have rarely seen for years. Compared with the other two mortal giants, Wu Meng's value is self-evident.

But at this moment, the headmaster's attendant put aside his usual pomp and circumstance when he was outside, and came in carefully, saying respectfully, "Master headmaster, Elder Ye, Miss He is outside asking to see you."

"Tell this girl to go back and tell her that I don't want to see her." Kang Dabao frowned, looking unhappy, and said in a deep voice.

"Master, my aunt brought the young master here. It's windy outside." Wu Meng reminded in a low voice.

"You kid, did you take the spirit stones?!" The head of Kangda suddenly laughed, and Wu Meng kept complaining: "How dare you take my spirit stones?! I am..."

Ye Zhengwen stopped Wu Meng from talking and reminded him, "Go ahead and meet her. You can't hide from her forever."

Kang Dabao still didn't change his mind and chuckled, "Oh, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years and we've come this far. So let's just not see each other."

Ye Zhengwen still didn't give up, and whispered: "Brother Chang is still freezing."

"Call that useless guy in," a trace of annoyance flashed across the face of Master Kang, and he took a step and fell back on the stone bench.

"Uncle~~" The little boy spoke in a charming baby voice. He stepped into the master's courtyard before his mother and rushed tremblingly towards Kang Dabao in the center of the courtyard.

Before He Wanying even saw her senior brother, her only son had already helped to alleviate most of the frost on the latter's face.

Master Kang opened his arms and picked up the delicate and pretty boy, his face full of smiles again.

It goes without saying how this baby came about. During the three years that Kang Dabao was in seclusion, with He Wanying allowed by Jiang Qing, she was able to accomplish a lot of things.

As for Master Yu Kang, this is the flesh and blood of Master He. No matter how much he hates his father, there is no reason for him not to like him.

"Chang'er has gained a lot of weight," Kang Dabao said happily.

"Brother Yi just came back from Chongming City and brought Chang'er the pork elbow braised by Brother Jin. It was delicious." When he said this, saliva started to hang from the corners of the handsome boy's mouth again.

"You two little enemies, your brother Jin is practicing hard to break through the seventh level of Qi training, but he still has to free up his hands to serve you two little masters."

Kang Dabao pretended to be annoyed and pulled Doraemon with very little force.

The handsome boy was so frightened that he kicked his legs and shouted, "Mother, my uncle is so bad! Chang'er doesn't want to play with him anymore. We will go play with father later and ask him to teach me how to shoot eagles in the mountains."

As soon as the child's words came out, the happy atmosphere in the courtyard came to an abrupt end.

The young woman's eyes were filled with sadness, the faint smile on Ye Zhengwen's face disappeared, and the expression of the head of Kangda suddenly dimmed. The look in his eyes when he looked at the delicate boy was half distressed and half relieved.

The handsome boy blocked the little bell and walked in front of his mother. He turned around and said to Kang Dabao, "Humph, uncle is the worst! Chang'er is going to complain to his aunt."

"Chang'er, don't be rude to your uncle!" After He Wanying reprimanded the boy, she greeted the two people in the courtyard: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother Ye."

Ye Zhengwen returned the greeting with a half-courteous gesture, and Kang Dabao nodded in response. Then he did not ask He Wanying's purpose of coming, but just said "hmm" in a light voice and said nothing more.

"Junior sister is here to express her gratitude to senior brother." The young woman wore a white flower on her head, and her face was still filled with sorrow. When she spoke, she no longer had her usual arrogance, which made Sect Leader Kang temporarily put aside his prejudice. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked over.

"If it weren't for my brother, we mother and son would have no idea when we could avenge our husband."

"I thought you were here to cause trouble for me." The head of the Kang family still had a bad tone. "Junior sister is my father's daughter after all, how could she do such a foolish thing."

"You have done a lot of stupid things over the years, haven't you?" Kang Dabao didn't want to be thanked, so he just said in a deep voice. "Don't thank me, thank Xiao Sanzi, because you didn't give him a few rotten fruits in vain. Thank Uncle Hei Lu, because without him, Xiao Sanzi would have to sacrifice for your worthless things."

Speaking of this, Kang Dabao was also quite dissatisfied with Jiang Qing. Without the former's consent, Mr. Jiang San killed Linghu You's only daughter, which led to many subsequent events.

Otherwise, if Linghu Rong was still alive, Sect Leader Kang could have avoided many subsequent matters and let Zhu Tong compete with the Yue family and Tie Liuyun.

"This little bastard, it's a good thing I took the Foundation Establishment Pill back from him and gave it to Old Ye, otherwise he would probably have kept it for Wanying." Kang Dabao complained in his heart again.

"Junior sister, I understand." He Wanying's beautiful eyes turned and a few tears fell.

The handsome boy was completely clueless, and his heart remained the same as before. Seeing this, he immediately became angry and pouted his mouth and shouted, "Mother is crying! Uncle is bad! When Chang'er grows up, I will beat you back to vent my anger for mother!"

"Live well, you still have Chang'er." Kang Dabao left a final word, then just shook his head, and without paying any attention to the people in the yard, he returned to the cloud room.

After He Wanying bowed and greeted Ye Zhengwen, she picked up He Chang and left the master's courtyard.

This handsome child was named Chang by his father Feng Wan, implying that he only wished the child a safe and peaceful life; the child's surname He was given by the head of the Kang family who acted overstepped his authority and made the decision in a domineering manner.

Just like the fierce mothers in many sect texts, He Wanying was about to embark on a path of parenting that her father and brother did not want her to take.

This time, Master Kang did not stay in the cloud room for long before he was found by Jiang Qing. The two of them found a dormitory and sat down opposite each other.

"Is this what we got this time?" Kang Dabao spoke first. He picked up several storage bags in front of him with ease. Jiang Qing, who was sitting opposite him, looked a little pale, and it was obvious that his injuries had not yet fully healed.

This is not surprising, after all, chasing after the fake Dan is not an easy task.

If it weren't for the fact that Linghu You still had an old injury, Taoist Heilu had made further progress in his cultivation, and Sect Leader Kang and Jiang Qing had also made progress, it's hard to say which party would have fled in Jin County at that time.

Not to mention that the three of them also carried with them the might of Da Sheng, and they killed several people from the Xuan Yue Sect who were building their foundation.

Jiang Qing didn't care about the rules in front of Kang Dabao. He sat cross-legged and said casually, "Some of them are not very valuable, so I picked a few small ones and gave them away."

"Mo Guang only knows how to love them. You still have to abide by the rules of entering the warehouse. Otherwise, if you don't abide by these rules that have been established with great difficulty, they will be abandoned very quickly."

Seeing Jiang Qing's expression, the Kang Sect Master did not seem to be willing to listen, so he put away the things and asked, "Is Master Hei Lu's injury getting better?"

Speaking of business, Jiang Qing's expression turned serious: "Master uncle said that Linghu You has not made any progress since he made the fake elixir. He is a mediocre person and cannot be compared with Yuan Buwen and Yue Lan.

I saw that he was almost fully recovered when he came back from Xuanyue Gate, and he should be fine now. I heard that Master Uncle wanted to go to Tengwen Mansion recently, maybe to attend an auction or something."

Kang Dabao thought for a moment and whispered, "Leave your job of transporting military supplies to me. I have just come out of seclusion and don't have anything important to do. You should follow your uncle this time, listen to his teachings along the way, gain some experience, and avoid the limelight to some extent."

Jiang Qing nodded and agreed, then said, "The dragon beastmaster sent by my sister-in-law's family has some skills. He is willing to teach me everything he knows, so Anle, this stupid kid, has made great progress in beast control, and now he is not far from becoming a first-class beastmaster.

He had previously told An Le that the deer in the zoo were selling well, but after all, their blood was of low quality and looked good but was not useful. In addition, the vain Kun Dao was always limited, and if he sold too many in the future, he would probably not be able to make much money.

Therefore, he wanted to ask Anle to take people to Jackdaw Mountain to find some hoofed beasts with superior bloodlines to breed with grass deer, and try to see if he could train a kind of beast of burden with both a delicate appearance and a strong bloodline.

I thought that since we have to look for it, I might as well take Anle and the others with me. Maybe we can find a useful second-level monster. It will take a few days for Master Uncle to prepare for it. I will finish this matter first, and then it won’t be too late to serve him to Tengwen Mansion. "

"Your plan is not bad, but the second-level monster has a very fierce temperament and may be difficult to subdue." Master Kang agreed with this, but he raised some questions about what Jiang Qing said.

Jiang Qing didn't care at all and waved his hand carelessly:
"As long as they are not stupid and ignorant, and know that it hurts a lot when a flying sword cuts flesh, they should be able to understand the reason. Even if they really can't understand the reason, it's not a loss, and we can make the best use of it.

Now that our Chongming Sect's hundred arts have begun to take shape, none of our flesh, bones, and blood can be wasted. They can all be made into spiritual objects and placed in Chongming Tower to exchange for spiritual stones."

Kang Dabao did not insist. After all, with Jiang Qing escorting the disciples into the Jackdaw Mountains, it would be safer. Even if they failed to capture a second-level monster and bring it back for breeding, the probability of finding some powerful first-level monsters would be greatly increased.

While the two were talking, Yuan Jin, who had not been out for a long time, also walked in. He did not need to be polite and went straight to the point as soon as he came in: "Big Brother, I may need something to build my foundation."

"What is it?" Although Kang Dabao had already prepared this round of spiritual dew for Yuan Jin, he still couldn't explain the effect of this spiritual dew. Since Yuan Jin took the initiative to ask for it this time, it must not be aimless.

Laying the foundation is a big deal and it takes some effort. Any more confidence is good. Master Kang is naturally concerned about it.

"We need the essence and blood from the root of the nose of the black-eyed white ape, both the first and second levels. The more the better." Yuan Jin didn't mean to be polite.

"The first-level ones are not rare. The He family caravan has a stable supply of them. The second-level ones are hard to find. When I talked with those mountain dwellers in Chongming Xiaolou a few years ago, I never heard them mention them. I don't know if they are not close enough or if all the black-eyed white apes in this area have been wiped out."

Kang Dabao read for a while, and then saw Jiang Qing's eyes light up, and he said with some excitement in his words:
“The last time I went with Brother Ji Yunsheng to Hong County to kill giant-toothed mountain monkeys, I saw several groups of black-eyed white apes living nearby. I think these beasts are even more widespread in Hong County.

"Big Brother is busy with important matters and can't get away, so I'll let you do this. We can do both without delaying anything. I can help Anle and the others search for the second-level hoofed beast together."

“Don’t be so rash,” even though his junior fellow disciple had already achieved foundation building, Sect Leader Kang still couldn’t help but nag him again.

This time, before Jiang Qing could reply, Yuan Jin immediately said, "Brother, I will go with Xiao Sanzi."

The two foundation-building masters in the room were both stunned. After thinking for a while, they realized that Yuan Jin seemed to have not left the gate of Chongming Sect since he killed eleven of his peers with a hammer last time. This time, following him could help them relax.

Blindly practicing hard and being too tense is not a good thing for building a foundation.

"Well, that's it." Kang Dabao made the final decision, and then said: "I will write to Chongming Xiaolou and Chongming Caravan, asking several nephews to buy up the essence of the root of the mountain of the black-eyed white ape. I think this thing is not rare, so there will be a lot of it.

At the same time, the Good Deeds Hall will also post tasks and mobilize the disciples who have free time to search for talents in various places. I will let Junior Brother Ye take care of this matter, so don't worry."

"Thank you, senior brother." Yuan Jin bowed.

Kang Dabao suddenly asked, "Second Brother, I have only one question for you now. Tell me the truth. You were possessed by the devil when you were practicing the White Ape Sutra, right?!"

Yuan Jin suddenly raised his head and looked at the concerned head of Kangda for a moment. Without saying a word, he lowered his head again.

The hall was silent. The three brothers rarely gathered together and rarely fell silent.

I don't know how much time had passed, but the sound of clinking glasses could be heard from the room again, and it didn't stop for a long time.
