Chapter 259: Getting Rich
Yan Cui groaned: "I remember she had a hand warmer..."
Jiang Chuixing's mind was particularly bright at the moment. Hearing this, he immediately reached for the storage bag on Shi Xuanying's waist, took out the soul furnace from it and placed it on her: "Will this work?"
"Maybe it can work." Facing his clear gaze, Yan Cui could only say, "If the sect master successfully merges with the remnant of the Heavenly Dao in the dust, his soul will definitely carry the power of rules. There cannot be two 'Dao' in one world. The Heavenly Dao changes, and life and death cycle, it is a struggle that must end in death. She has the aura of rules on her body, and she will most likely be rejected and suppressed."
Jiang Chuixing's expression became more serious after hearing this: "My master said that the soul furnace is used to stabilize the soul, can it also fight against the way of heaven?"
Now it was Yan Cui's turn to be surprised.
He originally thought that the Sword Sect knew that there was something wrong with Master Xuanying's soul, so they specially found the Soul Furnace to hide it, but it turned out not to be the case?
A trace of doubt came to his mind, but Yan Cui did not think too much about it. After all, Patriarch Yueyang died suddenly, and there were only two young people left in the Sword Sect. It was not surprising that many things could not be handed over normally.
"It's not about confrontation, but concealment." Yan Cui explained, "I once came into contact with the soul furnace in the dust of Xi Nu, and felt that it had some kind of restriction while calming the mind and consolidating the soul, which could suppress and conceal the soul."
Although the words made sense, the three of them fell silent for a moment as they looked at the lifeless person on the couch.
Jiang Chuixing sat cross-legged in front of the couch with his arms folded, his brows gradually twisted into a knot.
He suddenly thought of a serious problem - his uncle's cultivation was constantly declining. If his spirit and soul were suppressed, wouldn't he have no fighting power outside of Dust? !
What was even more terrifying was that his energy had been sucked out of him in the pine dust. Although his golden elixir had not shattered, his actual cultivation had fallen to the middle stage of foundation building! In addition, he did not have any cultivation resources...
If we were to collide head-on with the masters of the Tong Xiao Sect at this moment...
As he thought about it, Jiang Chuixing's cold expression began to crack little by little.
"How strange!" Dongfang Zhentian leaned over the window and watched for a long time, "We have been out for so long, why haven't we seen the escort from Guiyilou?"
Yan Cui asked: "Why do you think this is?"
"Not useless is..." Dongfang Zhentian suddenly stopped and his face changed slightly.
"Don't be afraid, just tell me." Yan Cui encouraged her.
Dongfang Zhentian shifted his hips uneasily: "I can think of two possibilities. One is that the cedar dust mustard has overflowed and caused a disaster. The other is that something happened in Guiyi Building."
Yan Cui guessed that maybe it was both: "If not, you go to Guiyi Building to check the situation. Xiao Jiang and I will escort the Sect Master back to Xiaonan Lane first."
"Okay." Dongfang Zhentian was also a little worried about Manager Dongfang, so he agreed immediately.
When they reached Baidi Bridge, they split up and acted accordingly.
After returning to the courtyard, the two settled Master Xuanying down before they had time to observe the changes in the courtyard.
There was a tree in the flower garden outside the window of Shi Xuanying's room. It was about as thick as a bowl, and its branches and leaves were like a canopy, completely blocking out the light from outside.
"I remember there were no trees here." Yan Cui said.
Jiang Chuixing touched his chin and said, "Could it be that one day in the cedar dust is one year in the outside world?"
"Probably not." Yan Cui walked into the flowerbed and stared at the surrounding small shrubs for a while. "These flowers and plants haven't changed much."
As they were talking, they suddenly felt the vibration of the magic circle and someone entered the courtyard.
The two looked in the direction where the footsteps came from, and saw a young man in white clothes strolling towards them with a cat in his arms.
The young man suddenly saw two more people in the yard, and his eyes widened in shock. After seeing their faces clearly, he immediately turned from surprise to joy: "You are finally back!"
Jiang Chuixing paused for a moment before he remembered that this man was the servant that Dongfang Steward gave as compensation for the house. "I just went to Miss Zhuang's place to catch the raccoon." Ersan came over with a black-faced kitten in his arms and looked into the house. "Where's the Sect Master?"
"Sleeping in the house." Jiang Chuixing said perfunctorily, and then asked, "Why is there an extra tree here?"
"This was planted by the sect master!" Talking about this, Twenty-three was also amazed. "The day after you left, this tree suddenly started to grow rapidly. In a few days, it grew to the thickness of a bowl. At first, I thought it was a monster! Later, I found that there was nothing special about it, so I guessed that it was probably a species from some dust."
When the two thought about it, it was really possible. There were so many kinds of dust and mustard, so it was not surprising that a tree like this appeared.
Yan Cui asked: "Where did Miss Zhuang go?"
"We went to Guiyilou." Ersan suddenly remembered something. "I heard that Jianzong had a falling out with Guiyilou for some reason. More than 20 great swordsmen came to Baidi in a threatening manner early in the morning..."
Before he could finish his words, Yan Cui disappeared, and the remaining wind that blew past him carried a smell of burning fire.
"Ugh--"
A soft sigh, like that of a ghost.
Jiang Chuixing turned around and saw a thin figure staggering out from the window. He couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Uncle Master!"
Shi Xuanying appeared at the door with a pale face and stretched out her hand to Jiang Chuixing: "Help me go back to the first floor."
"Uncle Master, you should just lie down and rest!"
Having said that, he still went over and supported her.
"That won't do. If I don't have money, what's the point of keeping my life? I have to go to Guiyilou to ask for my reward!" Shi Xuanying said as she walked out, "You and I need a lot of natural treasures for our cultivation and recovery. If we don't need them now, it will be hard to get them later!"
"Master!" Twenty-three saw that she was so weak, and approached her with full of worry, tears in his eyes, "Are you okay?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Shi Xuanying raised her hand and rubbed the cat's head a few times, "How did Fa Cai become so fat?!"
Ersan sniffed and said with a hint of tears: "Master, didn't you name it 'Wangcai'?"
"Oh, really?" Shi Xuanying pinched the chubby cat's face, "It's really growing well. It's more appropriate to call it getting rich now."
She let go of her hand, looked up at the tree by the window, and exclaimed: "These are all good omens!"
This little tree named "Secretly Make Money" really lived up to expectations. It grew so big in a short time while people were not paying attention. It was obvious that it was really her turn to make a fortune!
I hope that this time I go to collect the debt, my wallet will be as good as this one.
"I'll prepare the carriage right away." Ersan put the fortune in the house and trotted to the stable.
The master and his nephew got on a carriage and headed towards Baidi.
Jiang Chuixing saw his uncle lying on the small couch with his eyes closed while holding the soul furnace, and he couldn't understand why. "You just woke up, it won't be too late to ask for your reward later."
"It's too late." Shi Xuanying closed her eyes and said slowly, "The owner of the building is so stingy that it's difficult to get him to spit out what he ate, let alone cut the meat? I was thinking about how to cut it... No, I want the reward. Isn't it just that the Sword Sect has come to my door, so I'll go and see if I can take advantage of the situation to rob him."
"The Sword Sect's people suddenly ran to Guiyi Building..." Jiang Chuixing's narrow eyes slightly opened, "Could it be related to Jian Zi's entry into Chenjie?!"
If this is true, can those who teamed up with Yan Cui and led him into this mess be free of responsibility?
