Chapter 243 Hidden Talisman Master Lin
After plundering all Jing Xu's treasures, Ning Daoran quickly dealt with the finishing work. He burned Jing Xu's bones until every last bit was left, and even Jing Xu's soul was fed to Xiao Qing.
After that, Tu Dun left, and before leaving, he perfectly repaired the gap in the restriction that had been eaten by the fire-eating ants. The refining technique was the same as that of the previous formation master, and he used the magic power of the Evergreen Technique to push the fire-eating ants horizontally. All the ants and his own breath were wiped away.
Tu Dun returned to the cave and practiced again.
……
Half an hour later, there was a lot of noise outside the cave.
The news that Jindan major cultivator Jing Xu died suddenly in the cave quickly spread throughout the city.
Ning Daoran frowned. His hands and feet were clean. Logically speaking, the news should not have come so quickly. This can only mean that Jing Xu must have left the soul life tablet elsewhere, just after Ning Daoran killed it. , the fate card has broken.
evening.
"Senior Ning..."
Outside the cave, a transmission note flew in. It was news from a monk who was patrolling the city in the late stage of foundation building: "Senior Jing Xu of the Golden Core Stage died suddenly in the cave. I wonder if the senior knows this news?"
"Is this happening?"
Ning Daoran responded: "I don't know..."
"I see, then I won't bother seniors."
At night, the streets were still noisy. Many monks from White Dragon Immortal City and warriors from Zhenxian Tower came. They began to inspect the caves in the city door to door, especially those who had the ability to kill Jing Xu. Almost all of them were killed. Inquire.
The White Dragon Immortal City won't care too much if a foundation-building monk like Jinshan dies. But if a golden elixir major cultivator like Jing Xu dies in the city, it's a big deal. Other golden elixir major cultivators will also be frightened. Longxian City had to pay attention to this matter.
Soon after, the city lord Long Zhuojun took two golden elixirs and another Baodian realm martial artist to inspect the caves of Lin Man and Old Man Tianshan, and then came to Ning Daoran's cave.
Ning Daoran wore a green shirt and served the spiritual tea. He sat down in the pavilion and said calmly: "If the city lord has anything to ask, just ask. Ning will definitely answer everything."
"Okay, thank you fellow Taoist for your cooperation."
Long Zhuojun cupped his fists and said, "Long heard that there was some discord and even some quarrels between Daoist fellow Ning and Jing Xu because of Master Lin Fu. I wonder if this is true?"
"It's true."
Ning Daoran said: "The neighbors are all very aware of the matter of Daoist Master Jing's entanglement with Master Lin. Ning happened to meet him when he came back from the sea that day, and they exchanged a few words. It wasn't really a disagreement. He just felt that Daoist Jing was a golden elixir. There is something wrong with Senior Lin Fu Master being so entangled.”
Long Zhuojun nodded.
On the side, the Jindan monk's lips moved silently, as if he was saying something to Long Zhuojun.
"Friend Dao Ning."
Long Zhuojun asked again: "Fellow Taoist Jing died in the cave this afternoon. I wonder where he was at that time?"
"Qingfufang."
Ning Daoran said: "I spent almost the whole day in Qingfu Fang discussing with the owner Zhao Yuanlong about purchasing formation materials, and did not return to the cave until after sunset."
As he said that, he took out a storage bag and poured out the materials in the bag one by one: "These are the materials I bought in Qingfufang. Zhao Yuanlong can testify to this. I haven't left here all day." Fangshi.”
"That's it..."
Long Zhuojun nodded, looked at the Jindan monk on the side, stood up and said, "Long has finished asking, and will leave now, please don't mind disturbing fellow Taoists' practice."
"The city lord is polite."
Watching Long Zhuojun and others leave, Ning Daoran frowned and continued to practice.
……
Main street in the city.
A Jindan monk who hid his face in his cloak said: "Jing Xu once told me that this Ning Formation Master may have many secrets hidden in his body, and this person is very close to Lin Man. Jing Xu's Death...this person is most likely to take action.”
"You heard it too."
Long Zhuojun sent a message: "This person has been buying materials in Qingfu Square all day long. We have sent people to investigate this matter. Zhao Yuanlong has indeed been with Ning Formation Master all day long. After all, he is a Jin Dan, not Nascent Soul, cannot send a clone to kill Jing Xu.”
"If it wasn't this person, who else could have killed Jing Xu?"
The golden elixir monk's voice was low: "City Lord, Jing Xu also worked for the city Lord after all. His death... I hope the city Lord will consider it more. No matter who he is, he can't kill people in the city so unscrupulously."
< br>
As he said that, he frowned: "City Lord, could he be from the Immortal Killing Tower?"
"Isn't it possible?"
Long Zhuojun paused slightly: "Although Jing Xu has been criticized for his misbehavior, his name is not on the reward list of the Immortal Slayer Tower. There is no reward for killing him. Besides, , Jing Xu’s body was burned with fire. The other party’s purpose was definitely not to offer a reward, it should just be a vendetta.”
The golden elixir monk remained silent.
"Remember, don't mess with people from the Immortal Slayer Tower."
Long Zhuojun said calmly: "There is a group of old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage in the Immortal Slaughter Tower. Their strength is the strongest in the Eastern Wasteland. They are not something that our mere White Dragon Immortal City can afford to offend."
"Don't worry, city lord, how dare I?"
"That's good."
Long Zhuojun glanced back at the other party, with a hint of coldness in his eyes. ……
A few months later.
Jing Xu's death seemed to have disappeared into the sea, and no reason could be found at all. The incident was gradually forgotten by people.
This day is the Dragon Boat Festival.
Lin Man sent a talisman and invited Ning Daoran to come to the house to talk, claiming that she had cooked a table of delicious dishes with her own hands. This made both Ning Daoran and Da Benlu extremely nervous. Lin Man was indeed talented in talismans, but in the kitchen In terms of art...it's really hard to put it into words. Her cooking is no different from making alchemy...
Lin Man once stewed pig's trotters for Ning Daoran, but when the dish was served, Ning Daoran only saw pieces of black charcoal, so he used chopsticks to search among the black charcoal. Unfortunately, Lin Man's stove Failed to become a pill.
To be prepared, before visiting as guests, Ning Daoran and Da Benlu made some preparations.
In the evening, one person and one deer entered Linman Cave as a guest.
Ning Daoran was holding two bamboo baskets in each hand. Inside the bamboo baskets were freshly prepared and hot meals.
The deer's antlers were hung with strings of rice dumplings, dangling as it walked.
The years of cultivating immortality are long and dry, and Ning Daoran attaches great importance to things like festivals. If there is no sense of ritual, he, a cultivator of immortality, will almost forget the years.
"Friend Daoist Ning, are you so polite?"
Lin Man welcomed one person and one deer into the cave. A table of dark food was already placed in the pavilion.
The corner of Ning Daoran's mouth twitched. He could almost smell the fragrant alchemy of the grass and trees, and almost couldn't help but congratulate Lin Man for his improvement in alchemy.
"Lao Lu and I also prepared some food, Master Lin, you don't have to be polite."
Ning Daoran put the dishes cooked by himself and Dabenlu, and finally there was something edible on the table.
Lin Manli smiled lightly and began to taste the rice dumplings made by Ning Daoran without caring.
There is only glutinous rice in it, but the reed leaves used are all reeds that grow on the edge of the Lingpu Cave. The spiritual energy is extremely strong, the vegetation is fragrant, and the taste in the mouth is excellent.
Lin Man ate three in a row, and this person who had been building his foundation for many years did not mind eating more.
Ning Daoran never eats food, and eating and drinking is a major life event for him and Bai Lu. They wave their chopsticks and eat to their heart's content.
At the end of the meal, as usual, the big stupid deer washed the dishes.
Ning Daoran and Lin Man started talking about business.
……
"Master Lin."
Ning Daoran was holding the spirit tea. Although he was over a hundred years old, he still looked like an eighteen-year-old boy. After years of nourishment in the Evergreen Secret Art, he had formed an extremely honest and honest aura, and was extremely immortal.
"I have some materials here. I wonder if Master Lin has the ability to refine some third-level high-quality talismans for me?"
"Oh?"
Lin Man's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Third-level high-quality talismans have extremely high requirements for talisman paper. They must be refined with late-level third-level monster materials to be able to refine third-level high-quality talismans. If Taoist friends really have three Lin Man might be able to try the materials for late-stage monsters.”
Ning Daoran couldn't help but secretly curse, Lin Man, you have indeed pushed Fu Dao to the third level!
He originally just wanted to test it out, but he didn't expect Lin Man to really agree.
Based on Ning Daoran's understanding of Lin Man over the years, it would be impossible for her to say that she might try something like this if she was not completely sure.
"Okay."
He stretched out his hand and flicked it, and suddenly a stream of monster materials flew out from the storage bag. Large pieces of cyan monster skin, plus pieces of indigo-like scales, all belonged to the third-order late-stage Blue Dragon Demon King. output.
"This..."
Lin Man's beautiful eyes were sharp. She had never seen so many high-level monster materials. These materials were too precious and were only sold piece by piece in the past markets and auction houses. Ning Daoran took out all of them in one go. He is definitely the first to produce half a third-order late-stage monster.
"And some more."
Ning Daoran also took out some of the tough fish skin and scales of the red carp, surrounded by water and fire dual attribute auras. Although it was inferior to that of the green dragon, it was still the material of late third-order monsters after all. Looking at the White Dragon Immortal City, This thing is also a treasure.
"Friend Daoist Ning..."
Lin Man blinked her beautiful eyes: "Fellow Taoist actually trusts Lin Man so much... He just brought out the information about the Green Dragon Demon King and the Red Carp Demon King. Are you not afraid that Lin Man will leak the secret and cause trouble for fellow Taoist?" ?”
"Not afraid."
Ning Daoran sat upright and said: "First of all, I trust you, Lin Man, as a person. If you are the kind of person who is greedy for wealth, Ning will not be able to interact with you so frequently.
Secondly, Ning can kill two late-level third-level monsters at the same time, so he is not afraid of trouble. If Master Lin really betrays me, with Ning's ability, I believe it will not be difficult to track down and kill Master Lin.
Talisman Master Lin is a smart person, so how could he do such short-sighted things? On the contrary, cooperation with Ning would actually be beneficial to Master Lin's Talisman Dao cultivation. ”
Lin Manli smiled lightly: "Young Taoist Ning is indeed a thorough person. To be honest with you, my Taoist cultivation level has only recently reached the third level. As you said, working with you is indeed a very good thing." Can improve Lin Man's cultivation of Talisman."
"In this case, Master Lin must not cheat Ning's spiritual stones again. Each time Ning refines one of these third-level high-grade talismans, he still costs five hundred spiritual stones. What does Master Lin mean?"
< br>
"..."
Lin Man pursed her red lips, her beautiful eyes filled with helplessness. She almost had a crush on this guy, but in one sentence she changed her mind. He was still the black-hearted formation master, yes, it was still him!
