Chapter 199 Another accident

At Wanbao Pavilion in Fuguang Town, Aunt Zhong was reluctant to leave, looking back every few steps as she left Lu Qingshan's cave. Seeing Aunt Zhong's appearance, Lu Qingshan looked at Chu Xuanji with a strange look in his eyes and asked, "You are not really interested in this Zhong Wuyan, are you? I remember that when you were in Qin State, many people introduced you to a matchmaker, but you didn't agree."

Chu Xuanji didn't answer Lu Qingshan's question, but asked: "What do you think of our brother?" Lu Qingshan said casually: "What do you mean?" Chu Xuanji smiled and said: "Why are you pretending with me? I don't believe that you decided to become sworn brothers because you were drunk."

Lu Qingshan said with a smile: "If I say that I just want to drink some wine, would you believe it?" Chu Xuanji asked back: "What do you think?" Lu Qingshan said with a smile: "I want to drink some wine, but it's just that you have this level of cultivation at the age of 17. This is the first time I have seen such a talent. If you can win you over, why can't I?" Chu Xuanji said: "Is it that simple?" Lu Qingshan said: "I was very interested in body refining in my early years and practiced for more than ten years, but I only practiced to the second level of body refining and stagnated. Later I gave up. You don't know if you haven't practiced it. Body refining is really not for humans. The pain is really indescribable." Chu Xuanji said: "What do you mean, brother?" Lu Qingshan said: "Let me put it this way, if you have the resources to cultivate immortals, you can practice. If you have good aptitude and can endure loneliness, you can keep breaking through. Body refining is different. You must have great perseverance!"

Chu Xuan Ji said, "How far have you come in terms of our brother's physical training?" Lu Qingshan said, "I don't know, but he certainly didn't use all his strength when he punched me just now. I estimate that he is at least at the fourth level of physical training. Also, when he punched just now, white gas came out of his body. This must be a powerful magical power he learned." Chu Xuan Ji said, "When I went to explore the tomb with him this time, he showed extraordinary fighting power. Without him this time, we might all have died in there." Speaking of this, Lu Qingshan became angry and said angrily, "I told you in my early years that Chu Hao is a scheming person. I told you not to make close friends with him, but you didn't listen! You're lucky this time!" Chu Xuan Ji sighed and said, "I thought I could trust him after knowing him for hundreds of years. Unexpectedly, he couldn't resist the temptation in the end and wanted to kill my old friend."

Lu Qingshan sneered, "What do you think the world of immortal cultivation is? How many true friends can you make?" Chu Xuanji retorted, "That's why I value this friendship even more." Lu Qingshan said, "Do you think our brother has a good character? I saw that he was flattering just now, a typical mean person." Chu Xuanji smiled and said, "That's because you don't know him yet. He is like this. If there is benefit, he will kneel down and lick it. If there is no benefit, he will not give face to anyone, and he is very narrow-minded, haha." Lu Qingshan said, "Narrow-minded? No wonder I pressed him, and he knocked out my teeth." Chu Xuanji coughed awkwardly and said, "This matter has nothing to do with mind."

Lu Qingshan was puzzled, and Chu Xuanji explained it to him. Lu Qingshan laughed and said, "Hahaha, wherever I go, I am suppressed. It's no wonder that I am angry too." Chu Xuanji said, "Yes, I believe his fighting ability is not inferior to you and me, but his cultivation level is too low. The Divine Transformation cultivators like to use coercion to suppress him when they see him. That's why I reminded you not to test him with coercion before." Lu Qingshan also said a little embarrassedly, "If you didn't say it earlier, who would know? I habitually released coercion." Chu Xuanji said, "Can I be the kind of person who talks about other people's privacy?"

While the two were chatting, the servant had already brought Pan Chengfeng and the other two to a small courtyard. Pan Chengfeng nodded and said, "I am very satisfied. Thank Brother Lu for me." The servant nodded and left. Aunt Zhong had already walked to the courtyard and sat down. She held her chin and began to think about love. Qian'er approached and said, "Aunt Zhong, isn't Brother Chu here? If you want to see him, just go over there." Aunt Zhong said confusedly, "I know, but if I keep pestering him like this, will people gossip about me?" Pan Chengfeng rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "Didn't you pester him just now?" Pan Chengfeng rolled his eyes and said, "Aunt Zhong, Qian'er and I will go out to promote our wine at the party, and you can go find Brother Chu. Talk to him about the investment. Then clink glasses with him and chat about family matters. You can also ask Brother Chu for his business and spiritual experience. This chat will take several hours. I don't think we can finish it."

Aunt Zhong's eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "Yes, that's a good excuse!" Pan Chengfeng said seriously, "Aunt Zhong, this is not an excuse, it's business! Remember, the dividend we give to Brother Chu every year cannot exceed 20%. This is the greatest sincerity of the Zhong family! And Brother Lu, the wine given to him every year must be counted in the Zhong family's public account. It's several thousand jars a year, and he can really drink. Master Wu only has a hundred jars a year." Aunt Zhong had already stood up happily and said, "I know, why don't you go out?" Pan Chengfeng was surprised and said, "We just came in, are we going out now?"

Pan Chengfeng and his wife were driven out by Aunt Zhong, and they went shopping hand in hand. Aunt Zhong couldn't wait and went to find Chu Xuanji with wine. In the past two days, Pan Chengfeng and Qian'er have visited all the inns in Fuguang Town. Every time they arrived at a house, they opened a jar of wine, which attracted many inn guests to ask. Including the innkeeper, he came to ask where to buy goods. When they heard that there would be a shop selling wine here in a while, everyone was very excited, but when they heard that there was only daughter's red wine for sale, and no peach wine, they were very disappointed.

Soon, the time for the auction arrived. The venue was very large, much larger than Qingxu Town. Lu Qingshan said with a smile: "Third brother, do you think the layout of my brother's auction venue is acceptable?" Pan Chengfeng smiled and said: "It is much more magnificent than Qingxu Town, and it can accommodate several times more people than Qingxu Town." Chu Xuanji smiled and said: "Yancheng is not comparable to Fancheng, and Qingxu Town is certainly not as good as Fuguang Town in all aspects." Aunt Zhong smiled and said: "I think the auction in Qingxu Town is also very unique. Pavilion Master Chu also decorated it very well. Every time I go there, the experience is different." Chu Xuanji smiled and said: "Fairy Zhong is still very tasteful, unlike someone." Pan Chengfeng thought to himself: "She will say that your farts are fragrant!"

Qian'er asked, "Brother Lu, isn't it going to start in an hour? Why are you asking us to come here so early? Is there something else?" Lu Qingshan smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is really smart and intelligent. I do have something to tell you." Pan Chengfeng asked in confusion, "What's wrong?" Lu Qingshan said, "You are here for the Lianxu Gongfa, right?" The three of them nodded at the same time. Lu Qingshan said, "Originally, the only people who were interested in this Gongfa were some forces in Yancheng and nearby Yancheng. Now something unexpected has happened."

Pan Chengfeng asked hurriedly, "What's the surprise?" Lu Qingshan said, "I received news this morning that the Sanquan Sect also took a fancy to this technique and is now rushing to Fuguang Town." Aunt Zhong was shocked: "Sanquan Sect? Don't they practice water-based techniques? Why are they competing for this fire-based technique?"

Chu Xuan Ji said, "This hasn't been figured out yet, but the Sanquan Sect can be considered a force in Dongzhou, and there is an ancestor in the sect who has achieved the state of fusion." Lu Qingshan said, "He's only in the early stage of fusion, and he's been around for a long time. I don't know how many catastrophes he can survive." Chu Xuan Ji said, "We can't guess the strength of a powerful person who has achieved the state of fusion. Brother Lu, you'd better not talk nonsense." Lu Qingshan snorted and said, "It doesn't matter. The old guy doesn't like him either, and he taught him a lesson in the past. Would I be afraid of him?" Everyone was speechless. That was the person your father taught a lesson. You are not even worthy of carrying his shoes.

Qian'er was also a little nervous and said, "Then let's not fight for this technique, so as not to cause dissatisfaction from the Sanquan Sect." Aunt Zhong also said, "Yes, the Sanquan Sect can be ranked in the top 30 sects in Dongzhou, so let's not cause trouble." Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "What are you afraid of! If we take the picture, let Wanbao Pavilion send it back to the Zhong family for us. The big formation at home should be ready soon. When the time comes, we can hide at home and no one can do anything to us!~" Chu Xuanji smiled and said, "I know, how did you trick Master Wu into setting up a formation for your family?" Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "One hundred jars of peach blossom wine a year, plus a fourth-level body-refining monster." Chu Xuanji laughed and said, "Master Wu is also a greedy person. I wonder what kind of formation he will set up for the Zhong family?"

Pan Chengfeng didn't quite understand this, and hurriedly glanced at Qian'er. Qian'er understood and said, "Master Wu used the heart of the mountain that you got as the center of the formation and arranged a black tortoise defense formation. This formation can cover a radius of 500 miles and protect the entire core of the Zhong family. A forbidden formation was also arranged in Zhongjia Town. If you enter this formation without a token, your cultivation will be suppressed. Master Wu said that the same will happen if a virtual cultivator comes." Chu Xuanji sighed, "Master Wu is worthy of being a formation master. He has figured out the forbidden formation so quickly." Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "Of course, how could we do a losing business? Master Wu also promised to help maintain the formation every hundred years. I'm making a lot of money on this business, right? Haha~"

Chu Xuanji rolled her eyes and said, "It's more than making a fortune. What's the difference between this and getting something for free?" Aunt Zhong also smiled and said, "With these two formations, as long as there are no problems with the top leaders of the Zhong family, the Zhong family can last for a long time." After saying that, she glanced at Qian'er. Aunt Zhong also knew that there were already some signs of a dispute between Zhong and Li in the family. However, as long as there were no problems with the top leaders, those were all minor matters.

Although some members of the Zhong family had secretly advised her to come out and take over the position of head of the family, she had rejected them all for various reasons. Qian'er knew this, of course, but it was just human nature. As long as she didn't do anything to let down the Zhong family, Aunt Zhong would not interfere with her power as head of the family.
