Xiao Qing has now sensed some of Qin Ziling's temperament. Hearing this, he rolled his eyes at him and did not answer. Instead, he continued the topic: "What are you going to do with those black-winged black water storks? I will help you raise them first. You

If necessary, should I kill it for you and bring it to you, or should you get a manor and raise it yourself?"

"You can help me raise them first, but I need two black-winged Xuanshui storks recently. Kill them for me and put them here. I will pick them up tomorrow." Qin Ziling said after thinking about it.

"Now that my Xiao family has taken control of Xujiapu, the area under our control outside the West City has suddenly expanded a lot. With our Xiao family sitting outside the West City, Brother Qin can actually build a manor outside the West City, so that whether it is raising exotic animals or

It will be much easier to train people and horses.

If you don't want to show your face, you can ask Shao'e or others to take care of it. Just say hello to me in advance and ensure that no one will snoop or investigate your manor." Xiao Qing suggested.

Qin Ziling was a little moved when he heard this, but considering that the Qin family now has too few people, and the incident in Xujiabao has only been a month ago, and the storm has not calmed down, especially when the Lin family suddenly lost Lin Jingyue and Lin Zhengji, how could it happen?

Just give up? We will definitely continue to investigate secretly.

Now that Shao E is hiding in the Qin family, no one will notice for sure, but if she steps forward to manage a manor, there is still a risk of attracting the attention of the Lin family.

"What you said makes sense. I will consider it, but it will take some time." Qin Ziling thought about it for a while and decided to be more cautious. Anyway, he can eat Xiao Qing's soft rice, so there is no need for him to be so anxious to be self-reliant.

After that, Qin Ziling handed over a piece of paper and said, "Please help me take a look at these things. Is there any way to buy them?"

Xiao Qing took the paper, read it carefully from beginning to end, and said with a thoughtful look on his face: "Fangshu County is only a small county at the bottom of Xiyun Prefecture. It has many mountains and barren land. Except for the area that passes through Fangshu City, it is full of...

In the dangerous Wuyang Mountains, few places produce elixirs, and there are no famous mountains with spiritual energy.

Therefore, since ancient times, almost no Taoist sect has established a sect or established a Taoist temple in Fangshu County, and there are also very few Taoist qi refining magicians operating in Fangshu County.

Therefore, there are very few elixirs needed by Taoist qi refining magicians in Fangshan County. Even if someone picks them by chance, they will usually be transported to other counties or prefectures for sale.

Brother Qin, except for Shuilan Lotus Root, I can help you get some of the things you want, but I can't help you with the rest for the time being. However, our Xiao family has caravans going to Qinghe County every once in a while.

Qinghe County is the largest county in Xiyun Prefecture besides Zhoucheng. There are qi refining sects in the county, and there are also many qi refining magicians who are active in the secular world. It is said that there is a place specializing in selling these items in Qinghe County.

At that time, I will ask my uncle to send Qi refiners worshiped by the Xiao family to inquire and see if they can purchase these things. However, their strength is very average, and there is definitely no way to control the quality, price, etc."

Although Qin Ziling was a little disappointed when he heard this, it was expected. He nodded and said: "This matter is not urgent. If there is a caravan going there recently, you can first let them see if they can buy Purple Mist Spirit Rice, and other

Leave it for now, it won’t be too late to purchase it later when I go to Qinghe County.”

Part of the pound of purple mist rice obtained from the old Taoist Wuhe was left to his mother, and the rest has been in Qin Ziling's belly for a month. Not only is the effect good, but the taste is also very good.

This sounds like a food that alchemists often eat tonic, just like martial arts practitioners who often eat nutritious meat. It should be easy to purchase, and there won't be any big difference in price and quality.

"Okay!" Xiao Qing nodded curtly, then hesitated and said, "According to my brother, do you plan to go to Qinghe County? I actually also plan to visit Qinghe County within the year."

"Have you touched the threshold of bone refining?" Qin Ziling felt a slight shock when he heard this and asked.

"Almost, as soon as the end of the year or as late as next year, I think I can try to make a breakthrough, so I want to go to Qinghe County to try my luck." Xiao Qing replied.

Qin Ziling took a deep look at Xiao Qing, then lowered his head and pondered.

Xiao Qing's talent was beyond his expectation.

He originally thought that Xiao Qing had just broken through to the realm of energy transformation a few years ago, and would have to work hard for three to five years before she could reach the sprint of bone refining. However, he did not expect that she would be able to sprint by the end of the year or next year.

"You are right. With your talent, taking the Xiao family's secret medicine is the only choice when there is no other way. Before that, you must try." Qin Ziling looked up at Xiao Qing for a long time and said: "Qinghe County, I'm sure

I’m going on a trip, don’t go in a hurry, you’d better wait and go with me.”

"Thank you, Brother Qin. It would be best if I could go with you." Xiao Qing said with joy and gratitude on her face.

She naturally understood that Qin Ziling was worried about her.

Because she went to Qinghe County for a higher-level secret medicine, it was not just a matter of luck, it was bound to be dangerous.

"Well, it's settled then. I'll inform you in advance when I'm going to Qinghe County. I'm going to leave now. I'll come to pick up the Black-winged Black Water Stork and Shuilan Lotus Root tomorrow." Qin Ziling nodded, stood up and said.

"Okay, Brother Qin." Xiao Qing stood up and accompanied Qin Ziling to the entrance of the backyard before stopping.

After Qin Ziling left his home in the mountains, he went back to Liu Xiaoqiang's old house to remove his makeup and return to his original appearance, and then went to Hantie Zhangyuan.

"Qin, Senior Brother Qin, you, you are here!" As soon as he saw Qin Ziling, Bao Yingjun, who had been promoted to an inner court disciple, immediately ran up to him and bowed to say hello. He was still wretched and not at all like a genius disciple of the inner court.

Posture.

"Yes." Qin Ziling nodded noncommittally, and then asked: "Where is Master Zuo?"

"Zuo, Master Zuo, in the inner courtyard, has been in a bad mood recently. Qin, senior brother Qin, please be careful when you see him later." Bao Yingjun lowered his voice.

"Do you know what's going on?" Qin Ziling frowned slightly.

A month ago, he had already discovered that Zuo Le was not feeling well, but Zuo Le said it was a household matter, so he could not interfere anymore.

Unexpectedly, this month has passed and this household matter has not only not been sorted out, but has become more and more serious.

"No, I don't know. You have to ask Brother Zheng about this," Bao Yingjun replied.

"Okay, you go practice martial arts. I'll find you later." Qin Ziling patted Bao Yingjun on the shoulder and said.

"Okay, okay!" Bao Yingjun grinned happily, showing his buck teeth.

Not far away, at the inner courtyard disciples' martial arts training ground, Luo Yuke looked at this scene and couldn't help but curled his lips and said to Muxuan next to him with a look of disdain and displeasure: "This Bao Yingjun is really stupid! I don't want to think that he is now

The phoenix flying on the branch actually bowed and smiled in front of Qin Ziling, showing no arrogance of a genius disciple. But Qin Ziling really thought he was someone."

"Do you think everyone is like Nangong Yue? I think Bao Yingjun is very good. Back then, no one was willing to take him, only Zi Ling was willing to take him. He is repaying his kindness!" Mu Xuan said.

"Muxuan, what do you mean? Water flows to lower places and people go to higher places. This is human nature. Besides, Nangong Yue will be favored by the Lin family. Joining the Black Armor Guards is not only for himself but also for us.

The future of Tiezhangyuan will be beneficial," Luo Yuke said.

"Come on, bring someone here and injure Master Zuo. This is also good for our Hantie Zhangyuan. Listen to my words, Yu Ke, and leave Nangong Yue as soon as possible. Such a conceited and heartless person, you

You will regret it sooner or later if you follow him. To be honest, Zi Ling values ​​​​love and righteousness and is a stable man. I don’t know how many times better than Nangong Yue." Muxuan said.

"Come on, it's just him? He's a loser. Nangong Yue is different. So what if he is conceited and ruthless? Sooner or later, he will be a martial arts master. He is destined to be a master. Even if he hides in bed and cries in the future, I will do it.

Choose him instead of a loser with no development prospects!" Luo Yuke pouted.

"Don't be such a coward, do you really understand Zi Ling?" Muxuan said coldly.

"Do I need to know him?" Luo Yuke sneered.

Muxuan looked at Luo Yuke deeply with the eyes of a pitiful creature, then passed her by and went towards Qin Ziling.

"Hmph, aren't you just getting along with Senior Brother Zheng? Aren't you just a tin-skinned martial arts disciple who doesn't have much savings, has passed the peak of his energy and blood, and has no hope of becoming a martial artist in his life?

What's so great, he actually taught me a lesson! After two years Nangong Yue becomes a martial artist, what will Zheng Xinghan mean?" Luo Yuke's expression dropped when she saw that Muxuan didn't have a good face to show her, and went to greet Qin Ziling specially.

.

Since returning from collecting herbs, the relationship between Muxuan and Zheng Xinghan has been made public.

"Ziling, you're here!" Muxuan came forward and greeted with a smile.

"Yes, Pastor Sister, where is Senior Brother Zheng?" Qin Ziling smiled and nodded, then asked.

"Hey, the one who was here just now disappeared in the blink of an eye!" Muxuan looked around and frowned.

As soon as Muxuan finished speaking, Zheng Xinghan walked out of the inner courtyard with a somewhat ugly expression.

"Senior Brother Zheng!" Muxuan immediately saw Zheng Xinghan and waved to him quickly.

"Zi Ling, you're here." Zheng Xinghan strode over.

"Yeah." Qin Ziling nodded, frowned slightly and said, "What happened? Yingjun said Master Zuo was in a bad mood recently, and I think you don't look good today either."

"Not yet..." Muxuan blurted out with anger on her face.

"Don't talk nonsense." Zheng Xinghan glared at Muxuan, then patted Qin Ziling on the shoulder and said, "Let's go aside and talk."

"Yeah." Qin Ziling nodded and followed Zheng Xinghan to a big tree in the corner of the martial arts training ground.

"When I went out to collect herbs with you at the beginning of the year, didn't I mention to you that Master Zuo and others built a village outside the city? The village was called Sixianzhuang, and it was built by Master Zuo and others.

Founded by four martial arts masters.

Zhuangzi is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and has a good environment and location. The fields are fertile and various crops are planted. Various medicinal materials are planted in the mountains behind Zhuangzi, and many exotic animals are also raised.

Not only are servants guarding the village, but the four martial arts masters will also take turns to guard the village. Therefore, the families of the four martial arts masters and some close relatives live a peaceful and contented life there, even if the security outside is relatively chaotic, and there are bandits and bandits from time to time.

People in the village don't need to worry about committing a crime.

But some time ago, a martial artist died unexpectedly, and Sixian Village was missing a martial artist. The other two martial artists believed that the world was getting more and more chaotic, and only three martial artists were less powerful.

It just so happened that recently two martial arts masters who had friendship with them also wanted to find a suitable place to establish their roots. Originally this was a good thing. The stronger the strength, the stronger the self-protection ability.

But Zhuangzi is so big, and there is not enough space to bring in the families and servants of the two great martial arts masters at once. The other two martial arts masters suggested buying Uncle Xiaqu’s property in the village and letting his people move out of the surrounding area.

Master Xianzhuang. Uncle Qu is the martial artist who died unexpectedly."

Qin Ziling frowned when he heard this and said, "This is so unjust!"

"Yes, so Master Zuo firmly disagreed. Yesterday, Wei Feiju, one of the martial arts masters, came specifically to persuade Master Zuo, but the two ended up having a bad fight.

Master Zuo called me just now and asked me to inquire about whether there is a suitable Zhuangzi nearby. Only then did I know that Wei Feiju and Ma Chuan had already negotiated yesterday, saying that if Master Zuo firmly disagreed, then

Let him take the Qu family and leave Sixianzhuang." Zheng Xinghan said with an angry look on his face.

"Why did Master Zuo leave?" Qin Ziling said with a cold look in his eyes.

"It's not just that Master Zuo was bullied because he was weak, old, and had few outstanding disciples. The only outstanding disciple had a bad relationship with him and defected to the Lin family. Of course they didn't know about Junior Brother Qin, otherwise they wouldn't have

I think so." Zheng Xinghan said.

"So Master Zuo has decided to advance and retreat with the Qu family and find another manor?" Qin Ziling asked.

"Otherwise, what should I do? I still know Master Zuo's character well. Like what happened to Liu Xiaoqiang back then, if you asked him to take action, he was not that noble.

After all, Liu Xiaoqiang is just an apprentice who paid money to learn martial arts, not a formal disciple. Moreover, Liu Xiaoqiang chose the path himself, and he can only bear the consequences. Master Zuo cannot spend a lot of money to save him for this.

But Master Zuo and Uncle Qu have been friends for many years. They traveled together in the world and went hunting in Wuyang Mountain. If you want him to be like Wei Feiju and the others, he will drive the Qu family out of Si Xian Village as soon as Uncle Qu dies. That is absolutely impossible.

It can't be done." Zheng Xinghan said.

"Well, I understand that Master Zuo is a principled person!" Qin Ziling said.

"Yes, you scholars are very sharp in your words. This is why I admire you and am willing to follow Master Zuo all the time." Zheng Xinghan nodded.
