Chapter 309 Half one of us, precursor of the storm
“Then why did you end up living in the open sea and become a pirate?”
Xie Huan asked curiously.
The blazing red light flashed a few times without making a sound.
Xie Huan smiled. He seemed to be a spirit with stories, so he didn’t ask any more questions.
He raised his hand, and the ghost fire shot out, melting all the ice in the secret room.
Chi flew back into his body.
Xie Huan left the secret room and went to the leasing center to withdraw the spiritual energy. After receiving the deposit back, he returned to the Yunshang Chamber of Commerce.
Shang Tao came immediately to greet him and report on the recent events.
A total of forty-seven tickets were sold, including seven pill-forming monks with one million tickets each, thirty-one foundation-building monks with two million tickets each, and nine Qi-refining monks. Five million a ticket.
A total of 99 million low-grade spiritual stones were earned.
Because it was operated secretly by the Yunshang Chamber of Commerce, with guaranteed credit and a promise of a full refund if the payment was not accepted, the collection was very smooth.
Shang Tao took out a storage bag, put it on the table, and said with a smile: "This is cash. Mr. Xie, do you want to take it directly, or should I help you get it on Fengyu Youye?" The benefits of putting it on the card are self-evident. It’s not safe to put so much money on your person.” It’s the same if someone else picks up the body, and if you check in, your chamber of commerce will pick it up.”
Shang Tao swallowed. If such a large sum of money was deposited into the Chamber of Commerce, it would be considered his achievement, so he continued to fight for it: "If you were robbed, wouldn't you keep it?"
Xie Huan smiled and said: "I must have some pocket money with me, right?"
He took out five million low-grade spiritual stones, threw them to Shang Tao, and said: "This is your hard-earned money."
< br>Shang Tao trembled and was so frightened that he lost his balance and hurriedly pushed back: "Master Xie is joking, it is my honor to help you."
Xie Huan put it into his hand and patted it. He patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "I'm one of you, so you don't have to be polite. How can I keep the shopkeeper busy in vain? From Bobo Island to now, thank you for taking care of me."
Seeing that Shang Tao still didn't dare to take it, the smile on his face turned cold: "If the shopkeeper continues to be so polite, he is looking down on me for thanking someone."
Shang Tao was sweating anxiously, feeling as if he was on hold Roast over fire.
This money is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for him. If he accepts it, his future will be ruined once he is investigated by the superiors. If he does not accept it and offends Xie Huan, he is afraid that his future will be ruined as well.
"Don't worry, I hired your personal helper about the boat ticket and it has nothing to do with the Chamber of Commerce. You deserve the money."
Xie Huan said.
Shang Tao is still in a state of confusion. Are you saying that it has nothing to do with the Chamber of Commerce? I sold the tickets in the name of the Chamber of Commerce. If I are found out in the future, will the superiors care about me?
But with five million in front of you, it is impossible not to be moved.
"In that case, I would like to thank you more, Master."
As soon as Shang Tao gritted his teeth, he hurriedly thanked him and put it in his pocket.
Comfort yourself and say: I can't afford to offend this person, I have to get him. If I find him in the future, I can talk to this person and make it clear. I will definitely be safe.
Xie Huan smiled and said: "Let's continue talking about business."
He found that in a place like Yuanyanghai, the role and ability of the Chamber of Commerce far exceeded that of Qingyun Continent. In the future, he and the Yunshang Chamber of Commerce would be the same. Deeply bound relationships, then it is necessary to develop some "own people" within the chamber of commerce.
Shang Tao is a person who is smooth, alert, and has good spiritual talent. If I push him further, he is likely to rise through the ranks in the chamber of commerce and hold an important position.
The five million he has taken now is equivalent to half of his own people. It will eventually be useful in the future.
“Yes, yes.”
Shang Tao had just received five million and was a little excited. He nodded and continued: "According to reliable information, island storms will occur in the next few months. It is almost certain that the association will cancel navigation. I am still looking for potential buyers and try to sell as much as possible." We need to get some tickets out, but the association has already targeted us and is investigating in secret.”
“It’s normal to be targeted. You must resist it in front of us. You must not expose the Wang family and Yagyu before setting off. There are variables.”
Xie Huan warned.
"Yes, I will definitely stand up to it and will never leak any information. The association does not have any evidence and does not dare to do anything rashly."
Shang Tao said with an apologetic smile on his face.
Xie Huan asked about Hua Ling again.
Ever since she met Xie Huan and temporarily reconciled, she no longer dared to live in the Chamber of Commerce and moved outside. Recently, she established a stowaway group and set some group rules. From time to time, she would make a fuss in the group.
Xie Huan joined the next group and went back to his secret room to continue practicing and wait for the storm to come.
He took out the Bing Xin and started studying it.
After this thing was broken by myself, it has always been in the form of an ordinary ice cube, but it is colder.
After weighing it in his hand for a few times, he swept his consciousness into it and began to try to control it.
A feeling of clarity arises spontaneously, and the structure, energy, and frequency of spiritual thoughts and Bing Xin slowly merge.
The ice cube twitched in the hand, then emitted cold light, became much softer, and floated.
This feeling is indeed different from ordinary substances and magic weapons. It seems to have a spirit, but also seems not to have it. At this moment, he fully understood what Chi said before: "It looks like a thing but not a thing, it seems like a spirit but not a spirit, it seems like a living thing but not a spirit." Life, like death but not death.”
His mind moved, and he visualized the appearance of the sword. Bing Xin made a slight sound, and the ice structure changed slightly, lengthening little by little, extending in the direction of the sword.
Soon it turned into a piece of ice, somewhat like a sword.
Xie Huan took it in his hand, poured his spiritual power into it, swung it a few times, and then cut out the sword light.
But the ice bars crunched a few times and rolled into a ball on their own.
Xie Huan couldn't help but laugh. This thing is indeed interesting. Is there some kind of pattern in its behavior, or is it purely random? It must be clarified in order to have better control.
So I started trying various things.
Half a month later, Xie Huanzheng turned Bing Xin into a huge ice armor, covering his whole body.
Suddenly, the secret room shook slightly and lasted for more than ten seconds.
He turned the ice armor back into ice cubes, put it into the ring, released his original consciousness, and immediately felt that the space was filled with some unusual wind elements, as if coming from the abyss.
Under the flow of the wind element, the space shows a slight distortion that is difficult to detect.
It is difficult to detect without using the eye of insight.
"Storm?"
Xie Huan was startled. With a wave of his hand, a five-color light tunnel appeared. His figure flashed over the Chamber of Commerce. He immediately felt the strong pressure of the wind element, like Coming in waves like a tidal wave.
He looked up at the sky. The original blue color turned into glazed blue, and the clouds showed a strange flowing state.
On the distant sea, a large number of creatures kept jumping out of the water, manic and restless.
Birds flew around in groups and made all kinds of harsh calls.
All the monks on the island were running around in fear. The number of people staying outside decreased sharply, and most of them returned to their auras.
All the mortals were missing, not a single one ran away.
Every time an island storm occurs, mortals have to stock up on food and water, completely lock their houses, and many even tie themselves to iron pillars with iron ropes.
"Shang Tao."
Xie Huan directly transmitted the message below.
In a flash, Shang Tao came to his side, his robes were blowing, and he hurriedly stepped forward to bow and salute: "Thank you, Master."
"The storm is coming?"
Xie Huan's face darkened.
He was not notified of such an important matter in advance.
Shang Tao felt Xie Huan's anger and hurriedly explained: "It's just a precursor to the coming storm. It will take at least three to five days before the precursor appears until the wind is strongest. I just want to wait for the precursor to come before notifying the young master, so as not to disturb me." Young Master is practicing. "
"Three to five days, that's not long. I'll contact Liu Sheng first."
Xie Huan's expression softened and he took out the nameplate and started to contact him.
Soon Yagyu replied, providing a coordinate location for everyone to gather there.
Every time a storm occurs on the island, the opening position of the channel is different. The association needs to conduct observations to determine where the wind is strongest, and then stay there and wait for the strongest wind. The space channel exploded.
Xie Huan transferred the coordinates to Shang Tao and said, "Contact Hualing, the Wang family, and all the passengers to meet at the designated place."
After that, he flew directly to the designated point.
At the easternmost point of the island, there is a wide valley surrounded by towering rocks, like a stone city. Thick moss and strange plants can be seen everywhere. There is a river below. From the distance Comes from the mountains and flows into the sea.
When Xie Huan arrived, two unfamiliar alchemy monks were already there.
The two men had sharp eyes and a vague aura about them. It seemed that they were not kind-hearted people. After looking at Xie Huan for a few times, one of them asked: "Are you the victim?"
Xie Huan nodded lightly and said: "Yes, where is Mr. Yagyu?"
"Still surveying the wind points."
One of the long-bearded old men stroked his beard, his eyes twinkling. said.
The two looked at each other and ignored Xie Huan.
Xie Huan felt the arrogance between the two of them. It was obviously because he was only in the fake alchemy realm. If it weren’t for Yagyu Sheng’s relationship, he would not even bother to talk to him. He couldn’t help but smile, naturally he didn’t take it seriously, and began to observe the surroundings on his own. environment.
Many huge rocks have formations carved on them.
This valley is one of the commonly used access points.
Every time there is a sign of a storm, people will be stationed to observe the wind, but this time there is no plan to open the channel, so no one from the association will be seen.
The stowaway ship can only open a passage at the wind point not used by the association, which is equivalent to entering through a small door.
People arrived one after another soon.
After a few hours, thirty or forty people gathered, mainly for the foundation building period.
Shang Tao and Hua Ling also arrived.
Hua Ling began to send messages in the group, confirming her identity with everyone one by one.
The wind element in the valley is more abundant than on the island. Cyclones are constantly generated out of thin air, generating huge energy and tearing apart the ground and space. The rocks and trees that are swept in are shattered in an instant.
Suddenly, a large number of escaping lights appeared in the distance, flying towards them at extremely fast speeds, and each breath was extremely powerful.
"No, it's a member of the association!"
The face of the long-bearded pill-forming monk from before changed, and two sharp gleams shot out from his eyes as he stared at him.
The next chapter will be later.
