Chapter 207: Star Picking Tower Base
Chapter 207: Star Picking Tower Base
Wang Wenyuan was very sure.
The letter contained several thousand words, most of which talked about Long Xixiang's temperament and analyzed his personality.
It can be seen that he knows Long Xixiang very well.
"My recommendation can only ensure that you will definitely meet Long Xixiang, but whether you can catch his eye and learn the Dragon-Tiger Heaven Hammer depends on your own ability."
"You once asked me how to resolve the difficulties in the Divine Weapon Valley. If we can enter the gate and wall of the Dragon Evening Elephant, everything will be solved easily."
In the private room, Li Yuan held the letter in his hand, pondering it word by word and memorizing it in his heart.
He truly felt the looseness of the Zhaixing Tower.
The top killers have the right to recommend true races. One person can recommend ten people, but the treatment of the recommended people depends entirely on the recommender's connections.
Wang Wenyuan provided a way to learn the Dragon-Tiger Hun Tian Hammer, but it was just a way.
"No wonder the paper listed dozens or even hundreds of unique skills and magical arts..."
Li Yuan shook his head in his heart, but he was not disappointed.
He truly experienced the hardships of learning a skill. For a normal apprentice to learn the White Ape Cloak Hammer, it would take 10 to 20 years, let alone a unique skill?
The Divine Weapon Valley has been passed down for more than a thousand years, and there is only one complete and unique skill in the sect, and only the valley masters of all generations can pass it on.
He was already satisfied that there was a way to get in touch with and learn the unique skills, not to mention that it could also help solve the problem of the Divine Weapon Valley.
only……
"This Zen Master Fulong is not easy to deal with."
Li Yuan looked at the letter and felt a slight headache.
Long Xixiang, known in the martial arts world as Master Fulong, was already famous throughout the world when he was young. If he had not suffered a serious injury in his early years, he would have had the potential to become a peerless figure on earth.
Wang Wenyuan wrote so much about him not only because he knew Long Xixiang very well, but also because it shows that it is very difficult, extremely difficult, to catch his eye.
"Change your form, open up your meridians, refine your organs, refine your marrow, yin and yang..."
Li Yuan muttered to himself.
The one month he spent in Gaoliu County was not in vain. After many consultations, Wang Wenyuan did teach him some things.
In martial arts, when one can change one's form, one has reached the master level. When one can refine one's marrow, one can be considered a top master in any province or path, but he is only a quasi-grandmaster.
"The body is yang, the spirit is yin, and only when yin and yang meet can one be called a master."
Li Yuan felt a little excited and a little yearning.
According to legend, the master who combined yin and yang had an indestructible true energy that could still shine after being away from the body for years, and could still kill people from a distance of hundreds of miles.
This was a state that he could not imagine at the moment.
At the end of the letter, Wang Wenyuan's tone was still very firm: "Long Xixiang has long understood the yin and yang, and his true energy has merged with heaven and earth. His radiance has not diminished even after being out of his body for several years...
If he wants to see you, he will probably release a stream of true energy and follow the disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Temple to come. If you don’t catch his eye, it will be difficult to see him…”
"Is the Qi taking shape?"
Li Yuan thought of the Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer again.
The true energy of this mysterious weapon can transform into a secret realm that seems real and unreal, and can even give birth to masters who have entered and exited the secret realm over the past thousand years.
This realm is much higher than that of a grandmaster.
"Unrivaled hammer technique."
Li Yuan thought to himself: "According to Master Wang's guess, if Long Xixiang comes with the disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Temple..."
This letter from Wang Wenyuan is very important.
Being observed in secret and knowing that someone is observing you in secret is completely the difference between open-book and closed-book writing.
Not to mention that the letter also gave a detailed analysis of Long Xixiang's character.
"Well, how can we please him? According to the letter, this Zen Master Fulong is proficient in all kinds of military tactics, so..."
Li Yuan touched his chin. What a coincidence. He was also proficient in all kinds of military tactics.
"Well, I need to think about it more carefully."
With an idea in mind, the waiter had already brought the food to the table. Li Yuan's appetite was whetted and he gobbled it up in no time.
After changing his form, his appetite increased several times. Although not as much as Ba Wanli, it was far more than Fang Baoluo.
……
After dinner, Li Yuan took out the letter and read it several times before going out.
It was almost dusk, but Dechang Prefecture was still very busy, and many shops along the street had lit candles.
Li Yuan walked around for a while and bought a few entry-level items. While strolling around, he went to a temple in the city.
Ever since the opening of the Divine Fire Furnace, he would look for nearby temples wherever he went. When he returned to Gaoliu, he had bought all the incense burners from those temples.
The city of Dechang Prefecture is not as big as that of Zhelong Prefecture, but it has more temples. The Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva Temple is still the most popular.
"The evil cult is really everywhere."
Walking out of the Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva Temple, Li Yuan's eyes turned slightly cold. This statue of the Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva was surrounded by blood.
Those temple priests were not carrying any weapons, but he estimated that there might be members of the evil cult among them.
"When the Divine Weapon Valley reopens, Dechang Prefecture will have to be cleaned up again."
When it was getting dark, Li Yuan returned to the Divine Guards' base. Before he returned to the yard, Liu Zheng and Wang Peiyao also came back one after another.
"The pills from Dechang Prefecture are 20% to 30% more expensive than those from Zhelong Prefecture."
Liu Zheng felt a little painful. He came with nothing and he didn't dare to make a purchase due to such a huge price difference.
"So much more expensive?"
Li Yuan frowned and took the banknote.
Pills are already very expensive, and if they were 20% or 30% more expensive, he would feel the pain.
"Prices in Dechang Prefecture skyrocketed around the time of the fall of Qianjun Cave, and have never fallen since then."
Wang Peiyao was carrying six pairs of shoes: "However, there are many kinds of spiritual beasts in Dechang Prefecture, and these boots are much cheaper."
One pair is second order, five pairs is first order.
Li Yuan was slightly pleased. He had visited several temples along the way and had accumulated some incense, which was enough to buy a pair of third-level boots.
"Tomorrow, I'll go to the pharmacy to check it out."
Li Yuan took the remaining silver and returned to the house.
"Squeak!"
The little mouse popped its head out from under the bed. This little guy was used to being displaced and had no difficulty adapting to the new place.
Li Yuan had sharp eyes and saw that there were at least ten mice hiding under the bed.
"Don't bring rats into my bed."
Li Yuan warned him that if he didn't take care of himself, he might find himself surrounded by a tide of rats when he opened his eyes one day.
"Squeak!"
Holding the blood-nourishing pill that Li Yuan fed it, the little mouse ran away.
"call!"
After putting away a few pairs of boots, Li Yuan took out the letter again, looked through it for a while, and then started to change his bones without fail.
It was not until late at night that Li Yuan slowly stopped.
He opened the window. It was dark and moonless, and seemed a little gloomy.
"Linghu Baiwan..."
Li Yuan thought about it, took out the common style of coarse linen clothes and put them on, and then put on the human skin mask and the ghost face mask.
Then he opened the door and left quickly.
In the darkness of night, many courtyards in the Divine Weapon Valley were lit up, and there were many disciples on patrol.
Li Yuan disappeared into the night. After changing his form, his lightness skill improved greatly. With the help of the two pairs of third-level boots, his speed became even faster.
Soon, he had left the Shenbing Valley base.
There is no such thing as a branch of Zhaixing Tower, but each provincial capital has a temporary base. Li Yuan saw the sign of Zhaixing Tower while strolling on the street during the day.
Soon, he arrived at a private house in the south of the city.
This small courtyard is located in a remote area, with two entrances, front and back, and only two rooms with lights on.
"It's quite hidden."
Li Yuan knocked on the door, one long and two short, sometimes light and sometimes heavy. After repeating this several times, the door opened and a trembling old man opened it.
"Ahem, follow me."
The old man glanced at Li Yuan, turned and walked towards the unlit room on his left, and turned the mechanism skillfully.
After a few "cracking" sounds, a deep tunnel appeared behind the wall on one side of the house.
"It's pretty much the same as the Zhelong Mansion."
Li Yuan followed the old man into the tunnel, and after going around in circles, they arrived at a spacious cave.
On an open space about ten feet long and wide, there stood several three-foot-high stone tablets, all covered with densely written words.
There were seven or eight masked killers nearby.
Li Yuan moved closer and found that this place was very similar to the stronghold of Zhelong Mansion, with the same stone tablet, the same interconnected tunnels, and the same cave tavern.
"I don't know if there's any monkey wine."
Li Yuan glanced at the tavern which seemed to be crowded with people, and his eyes fell on the stone tablet.
From bottom to top, many familiar names appeared, Ba Wanli, Fang Baoluo, Shi Hong, Qiu Changying...
All the true disciples, inner sect elite disciples, and elders of the Divine Weapon Valley are on the list, and they are all very eye-catching, and the reward amount is very high.
"My bounty is so high?"
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, he found that the amount of his bounty was higher than that of the true disciples such as Ba Wanli, and was almost the same as that of Jing Shuhu and Lei Jingchuan.
At first glance, his bounty amount is very high, and the martial arts required is the lowest, so no matter how you look at it, it is the most cost-effective task.
No wonder Linghu Baiwan was so sneaky when delivering the letter, it seems he really wanted to make some extra money.
"Qianjun Cave has been destroyed, and someone is still increasing the reward?"
Li Yuan looked at it and saw that from bottom to top, Han Chuijun's name appeared at the very top, one in front of and one behind Gong Yangyu. The characters were all in red and very eye-catching.
But the highest ones are not them, but...
"The suspected master of Xuanbing, Li Yuanba!"
"According to the information from the headquarters of the Evil God Cult, this person seems to have been recognized by the Xuanbing..."
"Li Yuanba might be a pseudonym. He should be from Zhelong Mansion and is suspected to be from Shenbing Valley. According to rumors, he was once a killer for my Zhaixing Tower..."
Li Yuanba’s bounty is at the very top, with the text as red as blood and enlarged, so everyone can see it clearly as long as they look up.
"You even know that I used to be a killer for Zhaixing Tower? How did you calculate that?"
Li Yuan muttered to himself, and after taking a few glances, he felt a little relieved. There were quite a few words on the reward, but the whole text was full of suspicions and rumors.
"It is suspected to be Shi Hong, the young master of the Divine Weapon Valley..."
Li Yuan felt strange, but after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense.
As the young master of the Divine Weapon Valley with the highest level of comprehension on the surface, he was the first batch of Xuanbing to enter the Hantan Tunnel and has never appeared since then.
No matter how you look at it, this is very suspicious.
"This is really..."
Li Yuan continued to look at the reward amount for Li Yuanba, which was very high.
"Anyone who finds this person's whereabouts will be rewarded... 100 taels of fine gold, 10,000 taels of gold, 10 bottles of Mind-Cultivating Small Rejuvenating Pills, 10 Dragon-Tiger Small Rejuvenating Pills, and 1 Dragon-Tiger Large Rejuvenating Pill..."
Gold, silver, elixirs, weapons, and martial arts.
Li Yuanba’s bounty is very high and complicated. At a glance, you can tell that more than one company is offering the bounty, and it is not an assassination mission.
"This is a good deal."
Li Yuan was a little moved.
