I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals Chapter 223

  Chapter 223 Deceiving the Spirit Deed

  This trade fair is more like a social place.

  For example, Prince Wang, who has an astonishing background and power, masters channels and resources, and businessmen in Jing country are vying to make friends with him.

   "Fellow Daoist Wu! Fang just heard that Young Master Wang is going to recruit two guard servants, and monks from the Liang Kingdom will be given priority, so that when they arrive in the Jing Kingdom, there will be someone who can be sent."

  Purple-faced and strong Chinese have a slightly excited tone.

   "Oh? If so, Fang Daoyou can give it a try."

  Lu Changan followed the trend of the conversation.

  The purple-faced burly man is a relatively small number of monks in the late stage of foundation establishment among the monks of Liang Kingdom on board.

  Applying for a guard servant has certain advantages in cultivation.

  If you can climb up to such a dignitary, you can safely arrive in Jing country, and you may have a chance to take advantage of the situation in the future.

   "Won't Fellow Daoist Wu try?"

   "My subordinates are mediocre in strength and dull in character. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you well."

   Lu Changan shook his head and said.

   He is not interested in various contracts that restrict freedom.

  During the trade fair, some Liang Guo monks signed contracts of sale with the Jing Guo Chamber of Commerce.

  Although being exploited by the Jing State Chamber of Commerce and sold as cheap coolies, it is better than dying in Liang State or being forced to go to the battlefield of cultivating immortals.

  For example, a purple-faced strong man, as a deserter on the battlefield, is wanted by the sect, and he will undoubtedly die if he stays in Liang Guo.

  Lu Changan guessed that these chambers of commerce signed a contract with a quota limit, and they had to pay a certain price to the Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce.

  Therefore, when they sign the contract, they will try to maximize their interests.

  At the trade fair, Lu Changan noticed Miss Wei's actions.

  Miss Wei successively negotiated with several skilled Foundation Establishment monks.

  These foundation-building cultivators meet the requirements of the "worship" mentioned by the New Moon Chamber of Commerce just now, and have second-level mid-to-high-grade skills.

  For such skilled talents, the contract conditions given by the major chambers of commerce should be looser.

  The actions of this woman made Lu Changan think deeply and have some kind of association.

  The next afternoon, the purple-faced man returned to the room with a disappointed expression.

  Lu Changan later learned that the purple-faced strong man failed to become the prince's guard, and he even failed the primary election.

   After thinking about it for a while, Lu Changan understood the reason.

  The hunchbacked old servant next to Prince Wang can't tell the truth, at least it's a fake real person with vicious eyes.

  The purple-faced brawny man has a murderous aura. As a deserter on the battlefield, his identity is not innocent and he has no loyalty at all.

  The purple-faced man quickly gave up thinking about it.

   Joined the New Moon Chamber of Commerce the next day, signed a contract of sale, and became the bodyguard of the Chamber of Commerce.

   "Fellow Daoist Wu, sign a contract with the chamber of commerce. Although you will lose your freedom for a period of time, it is better than losing your life."

  After the purple-faced strong man joined the chamber of commerce, he tried to persuade Lu Changan.

   "Besides, it's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and the chamber of commerce will also provide spiritual veins and resources."

"Listen to Guanshi Jia: more than ten years ago, there was a Liang Guo monk who performed well during the contract period, married with the eldest lady of the Chamber of Commerce, and later became one of the principals of the Chamber of Commerce. Those days were much more moist than in Liang Guo Already!"

  Lu Changan smiled and said nothing. This story may indeed have a prototype, but it is definitely a case within a case.

  If you don't draw big cakes for you, you have no hope at all. How can the monk who signed the contract be willing to work hard for the chamber of commerce?

   "Fang Daoyou, can you show Wu a view of the spiritual contract you signed?"

   Lu Changan's heart moved, and he suggested.

   "What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Wu?" The purple-faced man frowned slightly, hesitantly asking.

   "There is a saying in the world, there is no business without adultery. Wu wants to see if there is any tampering with the signed spiritual contract."

   Lu Changan said cautiously.

  The purple-faced burly man laughed and said: "Fang is not an ignorant person, and there is no problem with the content of the contract."

   After finishing speaking, he took out a scroll made of yellow leather and showed it to Lu Changan.

   "Tier 2 Spirit Deed...Fang Zhong...New Moon Merchant Guild..."

  Lu Changan checked the format and terms, the obligations of both parties, and found nothing wrong.

  Through this spiritual deed, Lu Changan knew the full name of the purple-faced man: Fang Zhong.

   The name Fang Zhong may also be a pseudonym.

  But it does not affect the binding force of the contract.

  As long as you leave your own mana imprint on the spirit contract, it will take effect.

   This kind of mana brand has the unique spirit of monks.

  Its binding force is close to the oath of the demon, and within a certain range, the effects of mana backlash and position sensing are added.

  Even if he escapes by chance, he will be unable to move even an inch within Jing country, and he will become a wanted criminal.

  This second-order spirit contract book, depending on the effect, is worth 1,000 to 2,000 spirit stones each, and is protected by the Jingguo Business Alliance.

   "Well, no problem."

  Lu Changan nodded, and returned the scroll of the spirit deed to Fang Zhong.

  After Fang Zhong left, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Changan's mouth.

  This second-level spiritual contract is mainly binding on monks at the foundation establishment stage and below.

  If it is a real Dan Dan, the signing is almost equivalent to a free signing, and the price of breaching the contract is very small.

  Lu Changan's spiritual consciousness and body training have both reached the level of a fake alchemy real person, so he is naturally not afraid to sign this spiritual contract.

  In addition, the mana breath simulated by his fantasy mask can even try to deceive the spirit deed.

   After all, it is only a second-order spirit contract, and there are loopholes to exploit.

  Lu Changan made up his mind to find a good chamber of commerce and sign a spiritual contract.

  After several days of private contact, Lu Changan found a relatively suitable target.

  A guest room on the second floor of the Lingjian.

   "Wu Daoyou claims to be a second-rank alchemist, whether he can open a furnace to make alchemy, verify one or two."

   On the main seat, a handsome young man dressed in silk and a jade crown spoke bluntly.

  The handsome young master is the representative of the "Wufu Chamber of Commerce", and the accompanying monks of the Chamber of Commerce call him Mr. Xia.

   "Ms. Wu is not talented, and he refines a second-order panacea that can be made into a pill faster in one furnace."

  Lu Changan couldn't let the other party come up with exam questions, mainly because he, a second-tier alchemist, was relatively weak.

  The reason for not revealing the skills of the talisman master and the puppet is because of fear of identity leakage.

  The ancient ruins, the hidden dangers of killing Jinyangzong monks are still unknown.

  Going to Jing country now, I am not familiar with the place, so it is safer to take it easy.

  In Liang Guoxiu's realm, the outside world only knew that Lu Changan was a talisman master. Only the close monks know that he also has puppet skills.

  As for the attainments of the second-tier alchemist, no one outside knows.

   "Master Xia, please take a look."

  A few days later, Lu Changan successfully opened the furnace and refined three second-level low-grade Huiyuan pills.

   After checking the quality of the elixir, Mr. Xia remained expressionless.

  He handed the pill to the old man with mustache next to him.

  The old man with the character Hu carefully identified the elixir, sniffed it with his nose, and frowned slightly.

   "Young master, Wu Fan is indeed a second-rank low-rank alchemist, but his techniques are relatively mediocre, and I'm afraid he doesn't have any special skills."

  The old man with the character Hu, cultivated in the late stage of foundation establishment, and communicated with Mr. Xia.

   "After all, he is a Tier 2 alchemist, which is beneficial to the clan and the Chamber of Commerce. No matter how advanced his skills are, he will not be able to turn to our Wufu Chamber of Commerce."

   Young Master Xia sighed secretly, and said via voice transmission.

   After confirming Lu Changan's skills.

   Young Master Xia asked some more questions, trying to test out Lu Changan's details.

  The Liang Guo monks who signed the contract, the chamber of commerce must guarantee their identity.

  In the event of an enemy spy, or an extremely evil person committing crimes in the territory of Jing, the guaranteeing chamber of commerce will also be jointly and severally liable.

   "Master Xia, is the twenty-year contract time too long?"

  Lu Changan said in a dissatisfied way.

  Xia Gongzi explained: "The monks of your country who signed the contract on the spirit ship basically started in 20 years. This cannot be changed."

   "What's more, we provide Fellow Daoist Wu with a beautiful second-order spiritual vein dojo, the basic spiritual stones and resources needed for cultivation, including the service of concubines and servants..."

   "The annual alchemy quantity will be reduced by another 30%. For the excess part, normal remuneration will be charged."

  Lu Changan made a symbolic bargain.

  Master Xia discussed with the old man Hu, and finally agreed to Lu Changan's request.

  Lu Changan thought to himself, although this condition is not as good as enshrining, it is still considered a reasonable employment relationship.

  The only criticism is that the base salary is low and the number of years is relatively long.

  However, Wufu Chamber of Commerce needs a guarantee to sign a monk, and needs to pay a sum of spirit stones to Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce.

  Purchasing the second-level spirit contract of the business alliance is also a fee.

  Thus, the conditions of the Wufu Chamber of Commerce are relatively loose among the chambers that Lu Changan has negotiated with.

  Of course, this is due to the fact that the Wufu Chamber of Commerce is not powerful, and there is a demand for second-tier alchemists.

   In comparison, other large chambers of commerce have more stringent conditions.

   In a quarter of an hour.

  Lu Changan and the chamber of commerce represented by Mr. Xia signed a second-level spiritual contract.

  The constraints of the spirit deed are much looser than Fang Zhong's.

  Lu Changan imitated the mana breath of others with the "Hundred Illusion Mask", leaving a mark on the second-level spiritual contract.

   In this way, when he arrives in Jing Country's Immortal Cultivation Realm, whether he fulfills his contractual obligations depends entirely on Lu Changan's mood.

   "Master Xia, Mr. Wu is now an external monk signed by your chamber of commerce. Can you ensure that he arrives in Jing country safely?"

   Lu Changan asked.

   "As long as you don't encounter the Demon Sect, this Chamber of Commerce can ensure that you arrive safely in Jing Country. Entering the country, the last identity check, there is a spiritual contract, and you can easily pass."

  Master Xia's tone was much softer, and he answered patiently.

   "Dare to ask, how likely is it to encounter the Demon Cult?"

  Lu Changan had inquired before on the ship that encountering the Demon Cult was the biggest threat.

   The Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce has more energy, which can save money and avoid disasters.

   "About one or two out of ten possibilities."

  Master Xia is very calm.

   "In case of misfortune, you don't need to panic. As long as you are not a hostile target that the Demon Sect must kill, you can just pay the ransom."

   "Twelve out of ten?"

  Lu Changan thought of the girl Wei on the spirit ship, and felt that the possibility was more than doubled.

   Unknowingly, the spirit ship of the Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce flew for a month in the barren land between the two countries.

  The journey is half over.

  Lu Changan was determined: there is less than half of the journey left, even if there is any accident, and he has to go to Jing country alone, the pressure will be much less.

  Because, the area close to Jing State is less affected by the Cultivation War, and the risk is not as great as that of Liang State.

   "Fellow Daoist Wu, you actually joined the 'Wufu Chamber of Commerce'?"

   "The situation of this chamber of commerce is not optimistic. The industry under its name has been suppressed by the "Crescent Moon Chamber of Commerce".

  Fang Zhong did not know where he got the news, and felt worthless for Lu Changan's choice.

  He originally invited Lu Changan to join the New Moon Chamber of Commerce, but the latter refused and instead joined the weaker Wufu Chamber of Commerce.

  It was only at this time that Lu Changan knew that the real inside story of the Wufu Chamber of Commerce was actually an enemy relationship with the New Moon Chamber of Commerce?

  Lu Changan chose the Wufu Chamber of Commerce because he felt that the Chamber of Commerce was easier to talk to and had more lenient conditions, that's all.

  New Moon Chamber of Commerce, even if the conditions are not harsh, Lu Changan does not want to join.

  Because, Li Congren got his ticket from the New Moon Chamber of Commerce.

  If Lu Changan joins the New Moon Chamber of Commerce, the latter will probably investigate his situation. If the investigation is in-depth, there is a certain chance that it will be associated with his identity.

   "Fellow Daoist Wu, here's a toast to you! No matter what the future holds, Fang will recognize you as a friend before landing in Jing Country."

  Fang Zhong drank a glass of spiritual wine, his tone was forthright, and his flesh-strewn face was flushed with purple wine.

  Lu Changan heard the implication, and drank a glass with a smile.

at the same time.

  On the deck of the head of the spirit ship.

  The handsome young man in golden robe and the long-haired woman covered by tulle stood side by side, overlooking the sea of ​​clouds below.

   "Young Master Wang, we will arrive in Jing Country in ten days. Do you think the cultivators of the Demon Sect will take action?"

  Miss Wei shakes her temples, her dark eyes, smooth forehead, and straight nose are dimly visible under the veil, outlining her cool and three-dimensional facial features.

   "Miss Wei, you can rest assured."

  Prince Wang is calm and composed, with a sonorous tone:

   "With my young master here, even if the monks of the Demon Cult come, what's the matter?"

   Peng!

  The dull loud noise shaking the mountains came from the distant sky.

  Young Master Wang's heart trembled fiercely, his complexion turned pale instantly, and he felt like his heart was jumping with fear.

  At this moment, all the cultivators on the spirit ship were restless and their ears were ringing.

"not good!"

  Not far away, the hunchbacked old man with his eyes closed and resting his mind suddenly changed his complexion.

   Shua!

  He got up quickly, and together with the beautiful girl next door, escorted the prince back to the superior guest room.

"ah…"

  Miss Wei covered her face with her hands, looking panicked.

   No one noticed that the corner of her lips under the veil raised a hint of sarcasm.

  In the guest room on the first floor, Lu Changan and Fang Zhong were also alarmed.

"what sound?"

  Fang Zhong ran out of the room anxiously, looking into the distance.

   "Third-rank monster? Accompanied by a strong demonic energy?"

  Lu Changan couldn't help being moved when he closed his eyes to sense.

   Hum!

  The spirit ship of the Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce is fully open, slow down and maintain order in the spirit ship.

  moo~

  In the sky six or seven miles away, the black wind and strange fog roared, and there was a terrifying roar.

   All the cultivators used spiritual eye spells to inspect their eyes, and their hearts beat wildly.

  At the scene of the incident, there was a huge bull as black as iron, as tall as a tower, with hoofs like giant pillars, riding on the black wind and raging flames, flying sand and rocks across a mile or two.

  Boom! Click!

  Under its four hooves, a spirit ship of the Chamber of Commerce more than 30 feet away, the hull cracked, and there was an overwhelmed tearing sound.

  Inside the spirit ship, the black wind was raging with flames, and the mournful howls were gradually swallowed up.

   "Black Wind Bull! The holy beast of the Xuanyin Demon Cult!"

  On the spirit ship, some insightful monks from the Chamber of Commerce were pale and their voices trembled.

  Heifeng Buffalo, with the blood of the upper reaches of the land, has a body like a diamond, has infinite strength, is good at black wind black art, and is extremely lethal.

   Near the black wind bull, there are two teams of monks in dark robes, slaughtering the injured monks who escaped from the spirit ship.

   "Xiang Jinglong! If you join the Demon Cult and help the evildoers, Liang Guozong will kill you sooner or later."

  A beautiful woman in a green shirt with a fake Dan cultivation base, with blood oozing from the corners of her mouth, her aura was dim, her skirt was scorched black, and she fell to the ground powerlessly.

   "Bah! Old ladies, how majestic were you when you hunted down a certain family?"

  Xiang Jinglong, with a sallow complexion, was wearing a gilded toga, from top to bottom, stepping on this fake nun from Lihuo Palace.

  The beautiful woman in the green shirt had her ribs shattered, and she said tragically: "Xiang Jinglong...killed the descendants of the elders...you will not escape catastrophe..."

   "What elders and descendants, can you explain clearly?"

  Xiang Jinglong's face darkened, his eyes were gloomy.

  Back then, he committed a crime in the Mo family's Fangshi, suspected of revealing his identity, a trivial matter with insufficient evidence, and then inexplicably became wanted by Lihuo Palace.

  In these years, he has gained a firm foothold in the Demon Cult and tried to investigate the reason, but found no clues.

  At this moment, listening to the words of the beautiful woman in green shirt, he faintly touched the truth.

  Xiang Jinglong picked up the beautiful woman in green shirt and wanted to ask more questions.

   It turned out that the woman had become a slightly warm corpse.

  In order to prevent humiliation and torture, the opponent used the last trace of mana to destroy his own heart and died.

   "Unlucky!"

  Gloom appeared on Xiang Jinglong's face, and he turned his eyes to the spirit ship, which was twice as big in the sky several miles away.

   "Xiang Zhenren is the spirit ship of the Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce."

  The fake Dan middle-aged leader of another team of dark robe monks showed a knowing smile.

  The spirit ship of the Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce is on standby, trying to avoid the incident.

  However, the spirit ship is huge in size, and its speed is far inferior to that of the fake monk, and it is also not as good as the small spirit boat of the same rank.

  moo~

  The Black Wind Barbarian Bull of the Tier 3 monster was so fast, he chased after him within a dozen breaths.

  Xiang Jinglong and another fake pill from the Demon Sect led two teams of monks to outflank them.

  With Lu Changan's rich running experience, it is not appropriate to act rashly at this time, otherwise it may attract the attention of the third-level monster and the false pill of the Demon Sect.

  Anyway, on the spirit ship, there are two or three fake pills, either explicitly or secretly.

   and other important people's attention is drawn, and the situation is chaotic, which is the best time.

  Besides, as long as Miss Wei is on the spirit ship, Lu Changan doesn't have to worry about his own safety for the time being.

  The other monks on the spirit ship were in panic.

  They are not like Lu Changan, they have insight into more inside information.

  There is only one fake Dan real person on the surface of the Jiuchen Chamber of Commerce.

   is the middle-aged Confucian shirt who sits in the town.

   "Renren Xiang, we are serious businessmen from the Jing Kingdom, and we never underpay the tolls every time. Can we..."

  The middle-aged Rushan came out with a smile.

   Glancing at the black wind bull that cast a huge shadow above his head, his eyelids twitched.

   "A little nonsense, let go of the formation! A certain suspicious monk who only arrests the sect of Liang Guozong!"

  Xiang Jinglong said impatiently.

  The middle-aged Rushan gave a wry smile, exchanged a few words with the stewards of several large chambers of commerce, and finally ordered to open the formation of the spirit ship.

   "Everyone stays in the spirit ship, anyone who dares to come out will be killed without mercy!"

  Xiang Jinglong and middle-aged Fake Dan boarded from the front and back of the spirit ship respectively, checking each room.

  The search this time was much stricter than Liang Guozong's.

  No matter the ordinary room or the superior room, every corner is without exception.

  The third-order big demon, the Black Wind Bull, wandered in the sky, and the terrifying and cold black wind demon power made all the cultivators feel suffocated.

  The two fake real men of the Demon Sect monitored the inspection of each room throughout the process.
