Chapter 8 The Unfilial Grandson
As the sun set in front of the sea, Ling Youdao returned to Cangli Island.
He went to the Spiritual Medicine Garden and told Ling Yuansheng the news of his safe return.
Looking at his grandson in front of him, Ling Yuansheng said with a cold face: "What? You're back so soon."
He was still confident about Ling Youdao's safety.
Over the past few years, he has been given several second-level talismans. As long as the foundation-building monks do not take action, it is more than enough to save his life with those second-level talismans.
Besides, how could a dignified foundation-building monk care about such a small fourth-level Qi-training monk for no reason?
Therefore, it is quite safe for Ling Youdao to go out to Red Shrimp Island to "experience".
Ling Youdao chuckled and scratched his head in embarrassment.
"My grandson missed you, so he came back early."
Ling Yuansheng smiled and said, "Stop talking so much."
Immediately, he waved his hand pretending to be impatient, "Since you are back, then go back quickly."
Hearing this, Ling Youdao said respectfully: "My grandson obeys your order, go back now."
With that said, he circled out of the medicine house, which made Ling Yuansheng laugh for a while.
"This brat..."
He shook his head helplessly.
After Ling Youdao left the Spiritual Medicine Garden, he went to the Shanggong Hall located in the middle of Qingcang Mountain.
The Shanggong Hall is the place where Cangli Ling releases tasks. If you complete the tasks released by the Shanggong Hall, you will get the corresponding good deeds.
Good deeds in the Cangli Ling clan are like spiritual stones in the world of immortality. However, within the Cangli Ling clan, the role of spiritual stones is far from being comparable to that of good deeds, because many important cultivation resources can only be exchanged for good deeds.
The reason why Ling Youdao went to Shanggong Hall was to get rid of the "stolen items" in the storage bag.
Soon, he arrived at Shanggong Hall.
The Hall of Good Merits consists of three tall lofts adjacent to each other. The loft on the left is where tasks are released, task completion is checked, and corresponding good deeds are distributed.
The attic in the middle is the place for acquisition, and the attic on the right is the place for selling. You can use spiritual stones and consume family good deeds.
Under a big tree outside the Shanggong Hall, an old man with white hair was lying on it.
Ling Youdao stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Youdao has met the eighth uncle."
Hearing this, the old man opened his eyes and looked at Ling Youdao, and said with a smile: "So it's Youdao. Are you almost an adult?"
The old man's name is Ling Jieran, and he is the only three remaining foundation-building monks of the Ling clan in Cangli.
"Well, there are still two years."
"At the fourth level of Qi training, your cultivation level is a bit low. Don't be lazy."
Ling Youdao said with some embarrassment: "Youdao should remember the teachings of his eighth uncle."
Ling Yuansheng learned his alchemy skills from Ling Jiehao, a monk of the second generation of the Ling clan. Ling Jiehao was Ling Jieran's elder brother, so the seventh and second families were closer, so Ling Jieran asked him so many questions.
"Okay, you must have something to do when you come to Shanggong Hall. Go ahead and don't disturb the old man. I'm resting."
After saying that, he closed his eyes.
"yes."
Ling Youdao responded respectfully, and then walked towards the loft in the middle.
There is a long counter at the deepest part of the attic, and behind the counter stands a middle-aged man.
This man was a collateral descendant of the Cangli Ling family, named Ling Bao. When he saw Ling Youdao walking in, his face burst into laughter.
"Youdao, what treasure did the Seventh Elder ask you to consign again?"
"Uncle Clan, I came all the way and you can't bear to part with a cup of tea?"
Ling Bao slapped his head and said awkwardly: "Look at me, I'm wise. Sit down and I'll make you a cup of tea."
After saying that, he ran to make tea. Ling Youdao smiled and found a place to sit down.
Soon, Ling Bao placed a cup of spiritual tea on the table.
He laughed and said, "Youdao, you drink tea first, and we can talk slowly."
Ling Youdao picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the spiritual tea, and then said carefully: "I brought a lot of good things this time."
Ling Bao was immediately delighted, "That's great."
Ling Bao, who had regained his composure a little, suddenly thought of a question, "By the way, Youdao, I haven't heard of the Seventh Elder going out recently."
"The old man is the seventh elder of the family and a monk in the middle stage of foundation building. He has been on and off the island. Even my own grandson doesn't know about it. How can you possibly know about it?"
Ling Bao thought about it carefully and realized that what he said was indeed true. If the elder left the island with great fanfare, other families would know about it immediately.
"That's right!"
Immediately he asked: "The Seventh Elder went out to the island to rob again this time..."
Ling Youdao covered his mouth and whispered: "Shh, keep your voice down, we can talk about this matter freely. After all, the old man is the seventh elder of the family, doesn't he want to lose face?
If word spread that he was "doing justice for heaven", how would the family talk about him?
Only the old man and you and I know about this matter. I don’t care if he pursues it. He can at most put me in confinement for a few months and it will be over.
But you are different. If I stumble you, you will never be able to get up for the rest of your life!"
Ling Bao was frightened by these words and broke out into a cold sweat. He kept nodding his head, and then Ling Youdao let him go.
"You have the right to say thank you for your kindness!"
Ling Bao looked at Ling Youdao, raised his hands and said solemnly.
Ling Youdao said a little unnaturally: "Uncle Clan, what are you talking about?"
"What I said is true. If I had leaked the information about the seventh elder, I might not be able to survive."
After hearing this, Ling Youdao felt that he needed to protect Ling Yuansheng's image.
"Uncle Clan, you are serious. The old man is not the kind of person you imagined. The most he can do is transfer you out."
Ling Bao waved his hand and said: "Youdao, you are still young and don't know the dangers of the world of cultivation. I also think that we have a good relationship, so I dare to say this in front of you."
Ling Youdao immediately interrupted Ling Bao, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
He felt that if Ling Bao continued to talk like this, his grandfather would really become a heinous villain.
Ling Bao waved his hand and said, "No more."
"It's not a big deal. As long as you don't tell anyone about it, it'll be fine, and don't record these things in your ledger."
"Um!"
"Look at how many spiritual stones these things are worth."
With that said, he took out all the contents of the scarred man's storage bag.
Ling Bao picked up the four magical artifacts on the table one by one and looked at them carefully, "This knife is a high-grade magical artifact with water attributes. It can be sold for 800 low-grade spiritual stones. The whisk is a high-grade magical artifact with wood attributes. There are some
If it is damaged, and there are not many monks using this magical weapon, it can be sold for 750 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones.
As for the remaining two middle-grade defensive magic weapons, they are both in good condition and can be sold for 500 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones each."
"This storage bag is also included."
"A medium-grade magic weapon storage bag, worth 150 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones, totaling 2,700 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones."
Ling Youdao nodded and said: "According to the old rules, I take 90% and you take 10%. If it can be sold at a higher price, the extra part will be yours."
Ling Bao collected the five magical artifacts and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will call you over once they are sold."
Ling Youdao nodded, then stood up to say goodbye.
"What? Is the matter done?"
Ling Jieran asked with his eyes closed.
"Well, it's done. Youdao is leaving first."
