Chapter nine hundred and sixteen parting ways
While the two were talking, they came to another hall that was covered by a ban. There were huge stone boxes displayed inside, which contained alchemy herbs.
Afterwards, Fang Yuan led the two of them around the entire Pingyang Valley and introduced each matter to Tang Ning one by one.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Tang, our office has prepared a banquet. The two fellow Taoists are here for a trip. No matter what, they have to stay and enjoy themselves. Let's have a good drink." Fang Yuan said as the three of them came out of the guard hall.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
The three of them arrived at the cave in a blink of an eye. A table of delicacies had been prepared in the hall. The three of them drank and chatted, enjoying themselves as guests and hosts. After three rounds of drinking, a man came in from outside, holding a storage bag in his hand.
He gave Jiang Xinquan and then quietly withdrew.
Jiang Xinquan also took the storage bag without changing his expression, while still chatting with Fang Yuan.
It wasn't until nightfall, after he had eaten and drank enough, that Jiang Xinquan said goodbye. Fang Yuan pretended to stay, and then personally sent the two of them out of the formation. When he saw them disappearing away, Fang Yuan returned to the formation.
"Senior Brother Jiang, I see that the Pingyang Mountain Alchemy Hall is well-staffed and well-organized, with dedicated personnel responsible for all matters. I wonder which aspect we are specifically responsible for?" Tang Ning asked as they walked side by side.
Jiang Xinquan said: "We are not responsible for the specific affairs of alchemy. We only assist them in management."
"For example, if their alchemy masters are short of manpower, they need us to recruit manpower for them, including the source of auxiliary medicine, the replacement of fire veins, the repair and maintenance of formations, etc. We are responsible for these."
"Also, if they have conflicts with local monks outside, we will also need to deal with them. As long as they are on the three-thirds of an acre of Jingyuan Pavilion, they cannot bypass us. There will always be things that we need to help solve."
"At the end of the day, we just have a name and charge some management fees."
Tangning nodded: "Senior Brother Jiang, I don't know if I should ask something. I saw they gave you a storage bag just now? Could it be the dividend they gave you this year?"
"Yes, Pingyang Valley and Yueya Peak give us a dividend of five million spirit stones every year. All we have to do is take time to collect it at the beginning of the year. For them, five million is just a drop in the bucket, and there is no alchemy yet.
Teachers are expensive.”
"To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the brigade or the alliance's industry, who would be willing to take care of so many bad things for such a small amount of spiritual stones. Over the years, I have often been troubled by them."
When Tangning heard this, she frowned slightly: "What? Are these things very troublesome?"
"Of course it's troublesome. Do you think the spirit stones are given for free? As long as something goes wrong, no matter how big or small, they will come to us, no matter if it doesn't work, otherwise they will file a complaint to the senior management of the brigade and alliance, and they will
Just wait to be talked to! If you are stubborn and ignore you over and over again, and let the superiors have opinions about you, your position as captain will basically be over, at least it will be impossible to go up any further."
Tangning asked: "Will this spiritual stone be included in the team's expenses?"
Jiang Xinquan smiled slightly: "Of course, I am not the only one to do the work. Most things have to be solved by the people below. Who is willing to work hard without some reward?"
"Under normal circumstances, how are these ten million spiritual stone funds allocated?"
"It's a 50-50 split, and five million spirit stones are used as team expenses. This is an old rule. It has been the case since I took office. If Junior Brother Tang feels dissatisfied, there is no harm in changing the allocation plan at that time."
"Since it is a rule set by Senior Brother Jiang and everyone has become accustomed to it over the years, I see no need to change it."
"This is not a rule set by me. I just implemented the plan left behind when I took office."
The two of them fled all the way to Crescent Peak and visited the alchemy hall there.
Afterwards, Jiang Xinquan took him to visit several suppliers of Dandian auxiliary medicines, all of which were local forces.
……………
The wind spirit boat sailed between the blue sky and white clouds, and the mountains and rivers under the feet passed by in a flash, and Wang Jiaxin woke up leisurely.
"Junior Sister Wang, you're awake." came the voice from Gaoyuan nearby.
Wang Jiaxin's expression changed: "Where is this? Where are you taking me?"
"We have now left Donglai County and are heading to Yuanxian City. Uncle Tang is there, and we just want to join him."
Chen Xiaofan said calmly: "Junior Sister Wang, please don't hate me. We have nothing to do. It would be too dangerous for you to stay. We cannot let you die in vain."
Wang Jiaxin said angrily: "Let me go quickly."
Yan Qing said: "Junior Sister Wang, just be patient for now! We will naturally lift the restriction in your body when we get to Yuanxian City. We are here on the Wind Spirit Ship of the Chamber of Commerce. If you cause any trouble, it will not end well.
"
"Senior Brother Xu?" Wang Jiaxin looked at Xu Jiayin.
Xu Jiayin looked at her expectant eyes and said: "Senior Brother Chen, I think we should first lift her physical restraint! It will take at least a year for us to take this ship to Yuanxian City, and the delay is in vain.
It’s not a problem to practice for a long time.”
Several people looked at each other and Gao Yuan said: "Junior sister Xu, if you agree to go with us without any worries and stop being so stubborn, we will release the restrictions in your body."
"I can't leave. Please help me release the restraint. I want to go back and help Uncle Jiang." Wang Jiaxin's eyes burst into tears: "Uncle Jiang was framed to save me. I can't abandon him at this time. Senior brothers, please
Please, let me go back."
Gao Yuan sighed slightly: "Junior sister Wang, no one blames you. This matter is not your fault. You don't need to blame yourself. We can't help at all if we go back now, and may even become a handle to drag down Junior Uncle Jiang. There is no need here.
People want to abandon Master Jiang, but we just have no choice."
Chen Xiaofan was silent for a while and said: "Let's do this! When we arrive in Yuanxian City, we will avoid the limelight first. When we have settled down, we will find ways to find out about Uncle Jiang. If he is safe and sound, we will return to Uncle Jiang.
It’s not too late to be effective.”
"When Senior Uncle Jiang was in trouble, we abandoned him. How could we have the dignity to see him again? Senior Brother Gao, haven't you ever thought about it?" Wang Jiaxin said: "Let me go back now. I know how to act according to circumstances.
On the one hand, we have an explanation to Uncle Jiang, and on the other hand, it makes me feel less guilty. If you don't let me go back, you might as well kill me."
Seeing her resolute attitude, everyone fell silent.
"Junior Sister Wang, why are you doing this? Senior Uncle Jiang is magnanimous and magnanimous. He will understand us and will not hate us because of this." Yan Qing said, her voice getting weaker and weaker, obviously lacking in confidence.
Wang Jiaxin said: "Senior brother, we fled all the way from Xingang to this place. We share weal and woe and depend on each other for life and death. I have always treated you as brothers in my heart. For so many years, I have obeyed all my words and followed all my plans."
"This is the only time I have disobeyed you. I know you are thinking of me, but I beg you to let me be my own master for once. I can't just abandon Master Jiang and leave. This will make it impossible for me to see him again in the future."
"No matter where I am from now on, whether I am alive or dead, I will remember these senior brothers and pray for you."
"Brother Chen, Brother Gao, Brother Yan, Brother Xu, Brother Zhang, please."
At the end of the words, at the emotional point, Wang Jiaxin's eyes turned red and tears filled her eyes, and she leaned over and bowed.
When several people saw this, they were all moved. Gao Yuan's throat rolled and he stopped talking.
Yan Qing sighed deeply, stood on the side of the ship with his hands behind his hands, and closed his eyes slightly.
Zhang Yao's eyes were slightly red.
Xu Jiayin stared at her with a complicated expression.
Chen Xiaofan's expression remained unchanged and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Senior brothers, let her go!" After a while, Zhang Yao said.
Yan Qing said: "Senior Brother Gao, Senior Brother Chen, since Junior Sister Wang is determined to do this, let her go back! We can't treat her like a prisoner and escort her away with us. Even if she reaches Yuanxian City, she wants to come back.
, it can’t be stopped after all.”
Gao Yuan didn't say much. He stepped forward and tapped her a few times, releasing the spiritual restrictions on her body.
"Thank you so much, senior brothers." Wang Jiaxin said with a happy face as her body recovered her spiritual power.
Chen Xiaofan said: "Junior Sister Wang, when the Fengling Ship docks at Ting City, you can get off the ship!"
"Um."
Everyone was speechless for a moment, and the Fengling Ship moved quickly. After an unknown amount of time, they saw a majestic and majestic building in the distance.
"Senior brothers, I'm leaving first." Wang Jiaxin stood up and broke the silence.
"Junior sister Wang, wait a minute." Gao Yuan flipped his hands, took out a storage bag, handed it to her and said, "Be more careful when you go back. You may be able to use these spiritual stones when you hold them."
Wang Jiaxin declined: "Senior Brother Gao, this is what you have worked so hard to save over the years. You should keep it for yourself! Your elixir cost is not a small amount. You gave me the spiritual stones, so how can you practice?
."
Gao Yuan said: "Take it! Why are you being polite to me? You go back and help Uncle Jiang out of trouble. You can't be empty-handed. Some places may need to be taken care of."
"Although I don't have many spiritual stones here, I may not be able to help you much, but it is still my intention."
"Furthermore, your cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building, and the training materials for elixir formation have not yet been obtained. Even if you cannot help Master Jiang, you will be able to use them in elixir formation in the future."
After saying that, Yan Qing also handed over a storage bag: "Junior Sister Wang, you have a soft and kind temperament and have never had any opinions. This is the first time I have seen you so determined. It should have been a gratifying thing, but I didn't think so.
Let’s make a difference here. No matter what happens today, be more assertive, don’t be anxious, and don’t trust others easily.”
Chen Xiaofan also handed her a storage bag: "After you go back, be sure not to reveal your identity hastily, inquire in the dark, and act according to the situation. Don't rush to Uncle Jiang's old relatives and friends, they are just outsiders, and now
When Uncle Jiang loses power, there is no guarantee that he will not betray his good will. In short, when the situation is not clear, you must not expose yourself."
"Take care." Zhang Yao said softly and handed over his storage bag.
Wang Jiaxin said: "Senior Brother Zhang, keep yours for yourself! You must also prepare for the attack on the golden elixir."
Zhang Yao shook his head and had no words.
"I'll go with you, more people will bring more strength." Xu Jiayin's face was expressionless.
Gao Yuan frowned: "Junior Brother Xu."
"I've made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me." Chen Xiaofan nodded and said, "That's fine. Junior Brother Xu behaves steadily, and with you taking care of Junior Sister Wang, we can feel more at ease."
Yan Qing patted his shoulder and arm: "Senior Brother Xu, take care."
While several people were talking, the Fengling boat had arrived in front of the city wall. A man walked out of the cabin and said, "Qianxian Pavilion has arrived. Fellow Taoists who want to disembark here, please come to me."
"Brother Chen, Brother Gao, Brother Yan, Brother Zhang, thank you for your care over the years. Please accept my respects from my little sister." Wang Jiaxin bowed and said: "No matter where I am in the future, I will always remember the kindness of these brothers. Farewell."
Gao Yuan said: "Take care, I hope we can meet again someday. Junior Brother Xu and Junior Sister Wang will be left to you."
Xu Jiayin nodded: "Take care and say goodbye."
