Chapter 1645: Sounds of Leaves Blowing Through the Forest
After listening to this, Li Yan nodded slightly.
His first question was just to explore the way. He really wanted to confirm whether the other party knew Su Hong? And he got the judgment that Guiqulaixi had a great background, and Su Hong's background was not small.
A high-level deacon of a business could know a shopkeeper in the lower world, which can explain a lot of problems.
Of course, this is also because Li Yan is very scheming and deliberately chose an appraisal deacon.
The other party was deceived by him and mistakenly thought that Li Yan must know that Guiqulaixi here is the same as the lower world.
If a deacon who specializes in selling information was here, Li Yan's trick might not work.
It was just a question, but Li Yan got the answer he wanted, and he was already somewhat satisfied in his heart.
Of course, if the other party could tell where Su Hong is now, it would naturally be better.
"The second question is not really a question. Since you know Manager Su, I have two jade slips here.
Please give this one to Manager Su and say it was given by 'old friend in the snow and wind'. She will definitely accept it!"
As Li Yan spoke, he already had two more jade slips in his hand.
He first put one of the jade slips on the table and pushed it to the old man in black robe.
And then, without waiting for the old man in black robe to agree, Li Yan did not give the other party time to respond, and continued.
"As for the other jade slip, I wonder if your company has any business to pass on information to the lower world. If so, then we can continue to discuss this matter!"
After Li Yan finished speaking, his dark eyes stared at the other party with a burning gaze.
The old man in black robe looked at the jade slip on the table and the other jade slip in Li Yan's hand. He did not take it, but laughed.
"My fellow Taoist, I think you have made a mistake. I know the shopkeeper Su you mentioned, but I really don't know how to find her!"
"Hehe, maybe you don't believe it. Shopkeeper Su once wanted to invite me to be a steward in your company. At that time, there should be two guardians following him, one of whom..."
After hearing this, Li Yan also laughed.
Then he roughly talked about the appearance of the two guardians around Su Hong when he went to Fengshen Continent. At the end, he looked at each other with a smile on his face.
The old man in black robe listened to what Li Yan said, and at the end, his heart skipped a beat.
"Miss... did you invite this person to be a steward in the company? Is this true or false..."
Of course, he knew that it was not an easy thing to enter the Guiqulaixi Company, especially to be a steward, not a guest or a clerk.
Every person who enters the company must be strictly checked to make sure that his background meets the requirements.
Although he didn't know whether the person in front of him was talking nonsense, but...if it was true, it meant that this person had a close relationship with the young lady, and the young lady had some respect for this person.
Especially when Li Yan described the appearance of the two guardians.
The black-robed old man had already confirmed that they were two powerful men from the headquarters. It was said that their clones seemed to follow the young lady.
From this point to this point, it was certain that this person had met the young lady, and the other party was not talking nonsense.
Li Yan said these words, and he was also gambling. He had carefully considered how to make the other party believe him once he saw Guiqulaixi.
And many of Li Yan's things were based on the first question. If no one here knew Su Hong, then he could only give up the path of Su Hong first, and only take out another jade slip.
But since the other party knew Su Hong, Su Hong's status in the company was not low, so the guardian beside her was naturally a strong man in the company...
"I can try to contact Shopkeeper Su, but it may not be successful!"
The black-robed old man nodded, stretched out his hand to take the jade slip on the table, and then took it in his palm.
He was a strong man in the late stage of the transformation of the spirit. As soon as the jade slip was in hand, although he did not directly explore it, he had already sensed that there were powerful restrictions on it.
"So strong
, he... He is also a strong man in the late stage of the transformation of the spirit?"
He clearly sensed that the aura of the two people opposite was in the early stage of the transformation of the spirit, but the restrictions on the jade slip would take some effort to open by himself.
But it was precisely because of this that the black-robed old man believed Li Yan's words at this moment.
The person on the opposite side was a little strange. If the young lady really knew the other party in the lower world, she might really think of recruiting the other party into the company.
Although he didn't know where the young lady was now, as long as he sent this jade slip to the main hall, there would be no problem.
But he didn't know that Li Yan's spiritual power had reached the initial stage of the Refining Void Realm. And he originally wanted to plant the spiritual power restriction of the Refining Void Realm on it.
But he thought that Su Hong was in the lower realm. Although there were strong people protecting her, she could only exert the cultivation of the Transformation Realm at most...
Half a minute later, Li Yan and Mu Guyue walked out of Guiqulaixi. At this time, the expressions on their faces were very calm.
But at this time, Li Yan's heart was already full of expectations.
In the end, he sent another jade slip at the price of fifteen top-grade spirit stones, and the target was the Wuliang Sect in the lower realm.
But the other party said that it might take a long time to arrive, because their business here could not directly send messages to the lower realm.
It takes about thirty years to send messages to a special place.
Li Yan also had some understanding of Gui Qu Lai Xi. He guessed that the special place the other party mentioned might be the main altar of Gui Qu Lai Xi, which has the ability to communicate with the lower world.
Thirty years is already a long time, and this is the result of Li Yan's bargaining and double payment of a big price. Otherwise, according to the normal transmission speed, he would have needed eight to ten top-quality spiritual stones.
But the speed at which messages can be transmitted like that is between fifty and a hundred years.
This was to deliver news to the upper and lower realms. Although Li Yan was helpless, he certainly didn't want to wait any longer. Of course, the sooner these messages could reach the lower realms, the better.
On that jade slip, he used a special seal from the Demon Sect. As long as it fell into the hands of people like Wei Zhongran, they could confirm the authenticity of the news at a glance.
The content inside is not too confidential, there is only one sentence.
"Say, break the military gate in the far west of the Northern Shepherd Realm!"
The content passed to Su Hong was probably basically the same.
"Eight years later, I will go to the far west of the Northern Shepherd Realm and break the military gate. I hope to inform the sect!"
As for the passage to the lower world, the old man in black robe denied it. They had no such business.
This is actually quite normal. Maintaining a channel between the upper and lower realms requires a massive investment of resources every moment.
Moreover, Gui Guilaixi is unwilling to get involved in things in the upper and lower realms, as things here are too complicated.
For example, some people once had enemies in the lower realm. After ascending to the upper realm, once they have succeeded in cultivation, they will think about suppressing their cultivation, returning to the lower realm to take revenge, etc.
There are too many such things, and they will involve many forces behind them, which will do more harm than good to the returnees. So, I don’t want to get involved in such things. If you have the ability, just solve it yourself.
And it is not a good thing to constantly break the rules of heaven and earth in the upper and lower realms. The rules are the laws of heaven. If you do this too much, your power, wealth, life, etc. will be affected.
Especially immortal cultivators believe in such things even more, and they are naturally unwilling to do retrograde things when they return home.
In the end, Li Yan had no choice but to give up on returning to the mortal world.
There is also a good reply regarding Mu Guyue's cross-border teleportation to the Jiyou Realm. Returning to Laixi, they can send someone to escort them to the nearest cross-border formation in the Beimu Realm.
They do have this kind of business, but to escort one person, they need fifty top-quality spiritual stones.
After all, they are sending out monks from the Void Refining Realm, and they are not even a few years old.
time.
As far as the extreme west is concerned, whether it is to the south or northwest, it should take forty or fifty years under the escort of the Void Refining monks. This is if everything goes well.
And in the middle, a large amount of teleportation array turnover also needs to be used, and these costs need to be paid by Li Yan himself, but Guigu Laixi can find the teleportation array for them.
After Li Yan heard this, his brows furrowed, and when he came back, it was like seeing blood with a knife.
But what they said is right. The monks sent were at least Void Refining Realm monks. During the whole process, there were many special teleportation formations that had to be returned because they were too dangerous.
Otherwise, for example, crossing the Tianyao Grassland to the south, only the Fusion Realm monks can be sure, and it is a problem for the Void Refining monks to save their own lives. This shows that Gou Laixi does not rely on brute force to break through.
In this way, the top-grade spiritual stones on Li Yan and Mu Guyue were enough to pay for Gui Qulaixi, but the spiritual stones that were transported across borders later were naturally not enough.
In the end, Li Yan and Mu Guyue could only put this matter aside for the time being and wait to gather more top-quality spiritual stones.
More than seven years later, Li Yan and Mu Guyue completed their duties and began their journey back to the sect.
Three months before leaving, Li Yan once again ventured into Guiyin City and found the old man in black robe again.
The last news we got was that his two jade slips had been passed on long ago and were already on their way, but they might not have left the Bei Mujie yet.
After hearing this, Li Yan felt anxious, but there was nothing he could do about it. The Bei Mu Realm was too big, not to mention that he still had to deliver the news to the lower realm.
In just over seven years, even relying on the teleportation array and constantly teleporting jade slips to move forward, it may not be possible to leave the Northern Mu Realm.
But this time, after Li Yan came over, he had one more thing to confirm. He wanted to know if the other party had simpler contact information.
His reason was that if he wanted to teleport across borders, he wanted to find his way back more easily.
When he said this, the old man in black robe over there suddenly seemed to have some realization. He already doubted whether Li Yan was a ghost cultivator.
However, Li Yan's last transaction was also very generous, and it might be related to Su Hong. He didn't care about the origin of such a customer.
After the black-robed old man thought about it for a while, he gave Li Yan a token and a jade slip map, and asked Li Yan to choose a light spot among the flashing light spots on the jade slip map.
After Li Yan checked the jade slip map, he found that there were six light spots in it, all of which were somewhere in the Extreme West region.
After some observation, Li Yan finally chose a light spot. That place still felt out of reach from Pojunmen, but it was slightly closer to the Moji Dao Sect.
In these years, he has also met some monks from the Moji Dao Sect here. If needed in the future, he can teleport to the Moji Dao Sect in Chunyang Hall.
It should be possible to find acquaintances, rely on some connections, and rent a teleportation array to teleport a certain distance to the north.
After the black-robed old man confirmed it, he told Li Yan that the light spot was a medium-sized market, and a monster material store called "Longming Pavilion" could be found inside.
Although it is not Gui Qu Lai Xi's business, it still has some relationship with them. All you need to do is take out this token and explain the situation to the other party.
If it's about cross-border teleportation, just explain it and wait five to eight years before going there.
And because it is a normal market, it is not as heavily guarded as Ghost Sound City every day, and it is much easier for monks to enter.
Afterwards, Li Yan and Mu Guyue returned to Pojunmen, but until now, Shangguan Tianque and the others still didn't know where they had been in the past few years.
Li Yan made some innuendoes and found out that Chunyang Hall still hadn't informed Po Junmen about the incident in Mocha Hall.
Therefore, he could not say that in the future, Pojunmen would be able to reduce his shift in Duangui City.
After returning this time, Li Yan and the two also met with the Supreme Elder of Transformation God.
Fang's conversation was quite harmonious, which made Li Yan feel that the broken army gate was becoming more and more stable.
This is good news for him and Mu Guyue when they leave Pojunmen in the future, and he doesn't have to worry too much about Pojunmen.
After that, Shangguan Tianque exchanged the income from the past ten years into top-quality spiritual stones and gave them to Li Yan and his wife.
It's just that after Li Yan and Li Yan looked at it, although they had smiles on their faces, they could only sigh in their hearts. In fact, there were already a lot of top-quality spiritual stones given out in the past ten years.
But it's still not enough for them to teleport and hire people. But this is already the fastest way to collect the best spiritual stones.
Li Yan couldn't find any other way in a short period of time. He couldn't go around killing people and robbing people.
In this case, he and Mu Guyue can only break through the military gate and wait for a while!
…………
Another year later, at an unknown place thousands of miles away from Pojunmen, Su Hong, who was pretty and pink and dressed in light green palace clothes, was sitting at the table with her legs crossed.
There are more than ten jade slips on the table. At this moment, she is holding a jade slip in her hand and looking at the contents inside.
The sleeves, as thin as silk, slid down Sai Xue Qishuang's snow-white arms, revealing a section of round arms glowing with white jade.
After a while, Su Hong pulled out his consciousness from the jade slip, and some brilliance flashed in his dark eyes.
"Abacus Sect, Jia Fugui! This is also a trading sect. Is it for business matters to inquire about Gui Lai Xi?"
Su Hong thought in her heart.
Even if she personally investigated the matter, because the far west was too remote, the forces of Return and Lai Xi had not touched there.
Therefore, often just a message takes a lot of time.
However, Gui Guilaixi's strength is not comparable to that of Jia Fugui. In just over eleven years, Su Hong found his head today.
But after finding this, Su Hong became suspicious, mainly because the information given about the Abacus Sect showed that the other party was a merchant sect.
Sects like this kind of asking for news about their return will always exist. It is normal for some small trading sects to want to use the resources of large merchants.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Miss, there is something I need to explain to you!"
Su Hong recognized Lian Bo's voice, so she put down the jade slip in her hand.
"come in!"
Lian Bo pushed open the door and entered, holding something in his hand. Su Hong glanced at it and saw that they were two jade slips.
At this time, the aura on Lian Bo's body was as deep as the ocean. If Li Yan saw it here, he would definitely be surprised at how strong this person's cultivation was. It was beyond his own comparison, but this was the opponent's true nature.
"What's the matter?"
Su Hong already had a guess in her mind and asked casually.
She guessed that this might be something she had explained and what progress had been made.
"Miss, here is a jade slip sent from Guiyin City. This jade slip is for you.
It should be the shopkeeper over there. I wonder where you are? Therefore, this jade slip was originally going to be passed to the main altar.
Therefore, they passed it through the regular channels. After waiting to collect the jade slip with other items and information, they planned to continue transmitting it together later.
I arrived here today and started to collect items and information about the businesses here.
When the deacon here was recategorizing the jade slips sent by the teleportation array, he looked up the accompanying notes and annotations on the jade slips, and then he realized that the relevant jade slips were to be passed to you, Miss.
So, I quickly told the old slave about this matter. The old slave also checked the jade slip with annotations. It was indeed the one passed to you, Miss. It said that it was an 'old friend of Fengxue' and was given to Shopkeeper Su! "
Lian Bo quickly explained the matter.
Su Hong's elegant and noble expression suddenly froze!
