Before Li Shiming went to visit Gu Jia, on the morning of the third day, Mo Yan handed him a visiting card.
Looking at the name of the royal priest Gu Jia on the visiting card, Li Shiming hurriedly asked Manager Zhang to open the middle door, and at the same time he hurried out to greet him.
"Hello, Brother Taoist!" Sure enough, the person standing outside the gate was Gu Jia, who had stopped his carriage that day. He bowed and saluted.
Gu Jia came here alone, still wearing the green Taoist robe, looking very ordinary.
As for how Gu Jia found this place, Li Shiming was not surprised at all. For Gu Jia who was able to mobilize the royal power, it would be extremely easy for him to find someone in Zhongdu, let alone in Daxia.
"Little friend Li, nice to meet you again!" Gu Jia smiled and nodded.
Li Shiming welcomed Gu Jia into the hall and dismissed everyone else.
"My dear Li, our investigation into you has passed. The reasons and origins of your cultivation are all well documented!" After sitting down, Gu Jia first told Li Shiming the news.
Daxia's intelligence system was more complete than Li Shiming had imagined. All the big and small events that occurred in Nanling Prefecture would be summarized and stored in Zhongdu by a dedicated person.
Gu Jia retrieved the intelligence from Nanling Prefecture in the previous few months. Based on Li Shiming's description and the time of the events reported in the intelligence, he matched what Li Shiming said one by one.
Especially since the ancestor of Weiyuan Escort Agency was indeed a cultivator, it was not surprising that the cultivator returned to the secular world and left behind descendants, and that he also left behind the inheritance of immortal cultivation.
According to the intelligence, Chief Wang of Weiyuan Escort Agency was being hunted by monks and was indeed hiding in the garden of Nanling Prefecture. Li Shiming was lucky enough to obtain the monk inheritance hidden by Chief Wang.
Afterwards, two fellow monks who were on a mission together left Nanling Prefecture with one dead and one injured. This matter was also confirmed by the sect.
It can only be said that Li Shiming had an extremely good fate with immortals. After obtaining the cultivation method, he also obtained the spiritual stones, the resources for cultivation.
Gu Jia didn't care about the cultivator inheritance that Li Shiming obtained. It was just the inheritance of a casual cultivator.
Compared with the little benefits of inheriting the legacy of a casual cultivator, he was more concerned about Li Shiming's future.
"Brother Daoist, can I join the Tianhai Sect?" Li Shiming asked hurriedly after hearing the news.
"Haha, young man, you have a clean background and come from a sect's sphere of influence, so joining the sect will not be a problem!" Gu Jia gave a very clear guarantee.
Li Shiming was delighted. If the Ascension Conference had not been held in the autumn of next year, he would not have wanted to take part in the Spring Examination.
"Hey, your tea is quite special!" Gu Jia looked at his excited expression, took a sip of tea with a smile, and then said in surprise.
As a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining, he looked down upon Li Shiming's tea, but this spiritual water was produced by the 'Spring Breeze and Rain Art'. If he were in a sect, he might be able to get something better, but now he was in the secular world, so this spiritual water seemed extremely precious.
While stationed in Zhongdu, the sect distributes spirit stones every month, so one needs to return to the sect to buy daily necessities every once in a while.
"Brother Daoist, you have figured it out. This is what I created using the 'Spring Breeze and Rain Technique'!" Li Shiming did not hide his magic and said with a smile.
Whether it was fake spiritual tea or spiritual water used to make tea, after Gu Jia investigated his experience, he would guess the origins of these things.
It would be better to admit it directly, perhaps it would add points for joining the sect.
"Young friend, you have actually learned the 'Spring Breeze and Rain Art'?" Gu Jia said with some surprise.
The 'Spring Breeze and Rain Art' is not a very powerful spell, but the special thing about this spell is that it is the entry-level spell for spiritual plant husbands.
He guessed in his heart that the inheritance left by the ancestor of Weiyuan Escort Agency was probably a spiritual plant husband inheritance. It was no wonder that he made such a guess. He could not imagine that Li Shiming could get a second inheritance in the secular world.
Now he no longer had any last bit of thought about the inheritance. Even if the inheritance of Ling Zhifu was placed in his hands, he would need the talent of Ling Zhifu to comprehend it.
"I had no choice. It took me a long time to learn the 'Spring Breeze and Rain Art'!" Li Shiming said with a helpless look.
"My friend, once you enter the sect, you will know how important it is to master one of the hundreds of skills of cultivating immortals. This will reduce a lot of difficulties in your journey!" Gu Jia said with a smile.
He values Li Shiming's future even more. After Li Shiming enters the sect, he will be more stable than other cultivators, at least in the Qi Refining Stage, because of this skill.
Only by experiencing it can you know how important stability is in the world of cultivation.
Gu Jia thought of many of his fellow disciples he knew, those cultivators who had better talents and stronger strength than him, but who eventually became history while on missions outside.
If he didn't have a skill that could reduce the number of dangerous missions he had to perform, he wouldn't have survived until now.
"This is the address for the monks' market. The market is held three times a month. Since the Ascension Conference will be held here next year, many monks will come here to join in the fun. The number of monks in the market will increase significantly in the near future, and there may be some good things.
But you must be careful when attending the market and hide your face!" Gu Jia took out a picture and put it in front of Li Shiming.
This is his investment. This market is a market for independent cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, and he often visits it.
Of course, in such a market for casual cultivators, it is extremely rare to find things that can be favored by a cultivator in the late Qi Refining stage like him. However, he will sell some of his unused items through the market.
Most of the cultivators in this market are independent cultivators in the early to middle stages of Qi Refining, and there are not many cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining among them.
The emergence of this market town is actually related to the monks stationed there from Tianhai Sect. A sign with the name of the monks stationed there from Tianhai Sect is hung on the market town, and the monks can earn some extra money from it.
Especially the items that have flowed out from the hands of the sect monks have made independent cultivators willing to come to this market to try their luck.
Gu Jia introduced this market town to Li Shiming because he wanted Li Shiming to truly get in touch with the world of immortal cultivation. The safety of this market town is relatively high, which is just right for an early stage Qi Refining cultivator like Li Shiming.
"Brother Daoist, you are so kind. I have no other way to thank you. Here is some water collected by the 'Spring Breeze and Rain Art'. Since you like it, please accept it!" Li Shiming put away the map and handed over a large jar of spiritual water that he had prepared long ago.
Originally, he was planning to send it out together with the fake spiritual tea, but he found that Gu Jia did not like the fake spiritual tea.
"I'd be disrespectful to refuse it!" Gu Jia was not polite and smiled as he put away the jar of spiritual water.
The spiritual water is not valuable, but it is useful to Gu Jia. Given Li Shiming's identity and strength, it was beyond his expectation that he could take out the spiritual water.
