Chapter 138 Monster Corpse
The cultivator in the foundation building stage walked up to Leng Youran, bowed, and said, "Thank you for saving my life, fellow Daoist. My name is Zhang Rui, and I am a cultivator from the Zhang family in Heze. This time I came out to gain experience with my disciples." Leng Youran smiled and helped him up and said lightly, "Fellow Daoist, what exactly happened here? I have been here before, and the third and fourth level monsters were not here at that time. They usually appeared in the mountains inside." Zhang Rui sighed and said helplessly, "Our family used to bring disciples here for experience every year, but we didn't expect that this year there would be a lot of monsters outside the mountains. There are so many third-order and fourth-order monsters. We have encountered a fourth-order monster and a group of second-order and first-order monsters before. We wanted to leave here before, but were stopped by this group of monsters. Leng Youran was also puzzled. Maybe something happened in the depths of the mountains. Suddenly he reacted and looked at Zhang Rui, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, you are cultivators from the Zhang family in Heze, so your family has disciples in Xuantian Sect." Zhang Rui was stunned for a moment before he said hesitantly, "Fellow Daoist, our family has a disciple in Xuantian Sect, but he has disappeared." Leng Youran thought of Zhang Hua Feeling a little sad, he suppressed his thoughts and asked quickly, "May I know the name of that cultivator?" Zhang Rui smiled and said, "What's there to be ashamed of? His name is Zhang Hua." Leng Youran was stunned as soon as he finished speaking. He was really a member of Senior Brother Zhang's family. Looking at the people behind him, he said gently, "I am a disciple of Xuantian Sect. My name is Leng Youran and I am a good friend of Senior Brother Zhang. I was originally going to Heze this time." Zhang Rui smiled and invited, "If you want to go to Heze, you must visit the Zhang family." Leng Youran smiled and nodded, jumped on the flying sword and left. Zhang Rui didn't know Leng Youran looked like he had left, but he came back not far away. He put a first-grade breath-concealing talisman on his body, concealed his breath, and hid in a big tree, watching the actions of Zhang Rui and his group. It was not that she wanted to monitor their actions, but she wanted to see whether the Zhang family was worthy of her help. If the Zhang family was good, then she would help the Zhang family and let their potential disciples enter the sect to practice. She had already made an agreement with the sect before, and the head master had promised to give her some places, and she could handle it herself.
If the Zhang family wasn't worthy of her, she could just give them some resources and let the matter go.
Under the tree, Zhang Rui brought his family disciples to collect the corpses of the monsters, and said to the disciples behind him, "These two third-level monsters and the fourth-level monster were all killed by Fellow Daoist Leng. I will collect them first and exchange them for spirit stones when I return to Heze. I will give them to Fellow Daoist Leng when I see him again." The cultivators behind him responded in unison, and no one objected. Obviously, this was what they thought in their hearts. Then they followed them silently, watching what they did along the way, watching them meet other teams along the way, and seeing that they did not bully other teams by relying on the large number of people and high cultivation in their team. They even met a team that was exhausted after fighting monsters, but they did not add insult to injury. They even helped to deal with the remaining monsters, and only took away the corpses of the monsters they killed afterwards.
Leng Youran looked at them and nodded with a smile before turning and leaving. She was going to Heze to find out more about the Zhang family.
In Heze City, Zhou Wuer and Zhou Pu were sitting in a private room in a restaurant. Zhou Wuer looked at her brother with a complaining look on her face and said angrily, "Brother, what's wrong with you? I just like the same thing as that woman! What do you want by not allowing me to do this?" Zhou Pu looked at her coldly and said coldly, "You'd better restrain yourself! This is not the Zhou family of Puyang. No one will tolerate your eldest daughter's temper. You don't have the family to support you here.
If you don’t listen, I will send you back to the Zhou family.” Zhou Wuer was furious when she heard what her eldest brother said, and immediately yelled at her, “Zhou Pu, mother asked us to come out together to find that bitch this time, how could you do this to me, in this case, let’s act separately! Give me some of the things mother gave you, and I will find it myself.” She had a good idea. If she got her share, she could do whatever she wanted and there was no need to listen to her brother preaching here.
Zhou Pu's face darkened as he looked coldly at his stupid sister. To be honest, he really didn't want to care about this stupid girl anymore, but after all, this was his sister whom he had spoiled since she was a child.
He stared at Zhou Wuer with a dark face and spoke again, "If you make trouble again, I will send you back directly. As for looking for Leng Youran, you are no longer needed." Zhou Wuer looked at her brother's appearance and immediately became deflated, like a balloon that was punctured. Her original arrogance was instantly gone. She looked at her brother pitifully and asked hesitantly, "Then brother, where are we going to find that bitch later?" Zhou Pu looked at his sister's pitiful expression and immediately softened his heart. After thinking for a while, he said, "I plan to stay in Heze for a while.
"Let's rent a cave and practice here for a while. My uncle sent me a message earlier saying that Leng Youran is likely to come to Heze. She should go to the Zhang family. Let's stay here and guard! As soon as Leng Youran shows up, we will take action." Zhou Wu'er nodded helplessly, and the two of them stopped talking and went out of the private room to rent a cave.
They have no idea that walls have ears.
Leng Youran listened to the conversation between the brother and sister with an amused look on her face. She had not intentionally wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation before, but because Zhou Wuer spoke too loudly before and mentioned her name during the conversation, she had posted an eavesdropping talisman on the wall to hear all their conversations. The eavesdropping talisman was made by exchanging the method with the heads of those families when she was in the secular world before. She had refined a few of them just for fun, but she didn't expect to actually use them today.
The salesperson sitting at the table tapped the table intentionally or unintentionally, thinking about the conversation between the brother and sister before. She had to think carefully about what to do next! She didn’t want to go directly to the Zhang family now. She wanted to test the character of the Zhang family. After sitting in the private room and thinking for a long time, she still felt that she had to go back to her old business. She also wandered around Heze. Because it is not a big city, the resources here are a bit scarce. Pills, talismans, and magic tools are all very scarce. She decided to rent a shop here and exchange resources as before! Before entering Heze again, she transformed into the appearance of a middle-aged male cultivator and appeared in Heze with the cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building. The reason why she had to use the cultivation level of foundation building was that she didn’t want to be bullied. The highest cultivation level in Heze was only the Jindan stage, so opening a store in Heze still required self-protection capabilities. Generally, Jindan stage cultivators would not provoke foundation building cultivators at will, because no one knew how many cards that cultivator had in his hand.
Leng Youran did it as he thought and went straight out of the restaurant to the mission hall under the name of the City Lord's Mansion.
Three days later, an inconspicuous shop opened at the end of the street in Heze. The name of the shop was Exchange. There was only a table in the shop, a recliner behind the table, and a few stools in front of the table. On the table was a set of writing brushes, inkstones, and a spiritual wooden sign with a line of words engraved on it: Exchange for elixirs below the fifth grade, talismans below the fifth grade, and high, medium and low-level magical tools. A row of small words was engraved under the wooden sign, and there was a large amount of monster meat for sale.
The reason why she added this sentence at the end was because she just discovered that there was a large amount of monster meat in her space that had not been processed, so she wanted to process some of it.
Leng Youran did not stay here all the time during these three days. She first went to the Heze Mountains outside Heze to hunt some monsters below the fourth level. After processing the monsters, she sold the monster meat directly to those restaurants. Of course, a lot of monster meat from previous times was mixed in. She also told them that they could come to her to buy it in the future, and she also agreed to give them a preferential price. Of course, she did not reveal that she was a talisman maker, and she also knew some alchemists and weapon refiners who could get some elixirs and magic tools. If they needed them, they could go to her. Since they wanted to establish a cooperative relationship, she would give them a preferential price directly. These restaurants all told her to notify them when there was monster meat in the future. The reason they were so excited was that the monster meat provided by Leng Youran often included third-level and fourth-level monster meat. You know, these third-level and fourth-level monster meat are rarely sold outside.
Leng Youran bought a lot of blank talisman paper from the material shop. She bought this because she needed a regular supply channel to open a shop. Time passed slowly. Leng Youran's exchange shop had been open in Heze for a month. During this time, besides drawing talismans in the shop, Leng Youran also entertained the monks who came to exchange items. However, she also received a lot of news from Heze. Every five days, she would go to the Heze Mountains. During this time, she did not let her spirit beasts come out to help. Of course, every time Leng Youran went out to the mountains, she would let them play on their own. Of course, whether it was Yun Shang or Lie Yan, they would gain a lot from taking the little ones out. The reason they were sent to the Heze Mountains for training was to enhance their combat capabilities.
During her time in Heze, Leng Youran discovered that the Zhang family had a good reputation in Heze, which made Leng Youran decide to help them. As soon as she left Heze that day, she found a group of cultivators rushing out from the outskirts of the mountains. Behind them was a fourth-order giant python. The giant python kept spitting out venom, and its tail whipped the cultivator in front from time to time. Leng Youran found that among these people there was someone she knew, and it was a cultivator from the Zhang family whom she had met before. When the venom was about to spray on the cultivator from the Zhang family, she took out a few talismans from the storage ring and threw them directly over. A spiritual power directly set up a spiritual power shield in front of the giant python, which just blocked the giant python's attack. At the same time, she summoned Yun Shang and threw it directly at the giant python, saying coldly, "Yun Shang, make it for me. I want all the materials on it." Yun Shang was thrown out and looked at her master with some resentment. She did it when she was asked to! Why throw her out? But no matter how resentful she was, she still rushed out to fight with the giant python. The giant python was about to catch these ants, but was suddenly interrupted by these talismans and became violent. At this moment, Yun Shang appeared in front of it. Although Yun Shang was a sixth-level spirit beast, the already violent giant python didn't care about that and started to attack madly.
Leng Youran stood aside and watched the battle over there. About a quarter of an hour later, Yun Shang put the processed giant python materials in a storage bag and threw it over. Leng Youran gave it an appreciative look. Yun Shang's proud face turned into a stream of light and returned to the spirit beast ring in her hand.
Leng Youran then looked at the group of people behind her and asked, "Why did you provoke this fourth-level monster!" It was no wonder she asked this because the person with the highest cultivation level among them was only at the Great Perfection of the Qi Training Stage, while the two people from the Zhang family were at the tenth and eleventh levels of Qi Training.
The Qi Condensation cultivator who led the team also recognized Leng Youran at this time. He hurried over, bowed, and said respectfully, "Senior Ling, I am Wu Jun, a disciple of the Wu family. This time we came out on a mission and encountered two Foundation Establishment cultivators in the mountains. They seemed to have taken something from the giant python, and when they passed by us, they sprinkled something with their aura on us. That's why the giant python kept chasing us." Leng Youran frowned, a little dissatisfied with the two Foundation Establishment cultivators. He glanced at them and asked, "Have you completed your mission?"
