Chapter 618: Winning over and inviting!
The second floor of the Stone Palace.
When the maid heard what Wei Hong said, she immediately smiled sweetly and said, "Senior, you must have just broken through to the foundation building stage, right? Please come with me!"
After saying that, the maid stretched out her hand and led Wei Hong to a booth in the middle of the second floor to sit down.
After pulling out the wooden chair for Wei Hong to sit down, the maid said respectfully: "Senior, please wait here for a moment. I will give you a cup of spiritual tea first and inform our steward immediately. The steward came to handle it for you personally!"
"Well, go ahead!"
Wei Hong nodded calmly.
The maidservant knelt down and bowed before slowly retreating.
Wei Hong looked around casually and found that except for some maidservants, there were not many monks on the second floor at this time. Compared with the lively scene on the first floor, it seemed a bit deserted.
Several other foundation-building monks who may have arrived first were also accompanied by people at this time. While chatting enthusiastically, they took out a jade slip and registered something.
After a while, the maid just brought a cup of fragrant spiritual tea and said respectfully: "Senior, please have some tea. Our steward will be here soon!"
"Thank you!"
Wei Hong nodded and smiled.
Seeing that Wei Hong had no other request, the maid immediately stepped aside knowingly.
At this time, a middle-aged man with elegant appearance and wearing a blue robe appeared on the second floor. When he saw Wei Hong, his eyes lit up and he walked quickly towards him.
"Haha, what do you call this fellow Taoist? In Xialuyou, Tian is the manager on the second floor of the foreign affairs hall. I am really lucky to meet you today!"
When a middle-aged man named Lu You walked up to Wei Hong, he immediately greeted him with a warm smile.
This person is also a monk in the early stage of foundation building, and his enthusiasm is so enthusiastic that Wei Hong is quite uncomfortable with it.
He immediately stood up and responded with the same smile: "I, Wei Hong, have met Fellow Daoist Lu!"
As for Lu You's greetings about how lucky he is for three lives, he naturally filtered them out automatically.
However, Lu You seemed to be really enthusiastic. He took Wei Hong's arm and sat down together next to him. Then he smiled and said: "Haha, it turns out to be Fellow Daoist Wei. Lu is late. I hope Fellow Daoist Wei won't take offense. Come on, fellow Taoist, try our spiritual tea.”
Wei Hong couldn't refuse, so he could only pick up the tea cup and take a sip. Then his face suddenly perked up slightly. After putting down the tea cup, he nodded to Lu You and said: "Yes, it is indeed not an ordinary spiritual tea. Thank you, fellow Taoist Lu, for your hospitality!"
After just one sip, he felt that the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual tea was enough to save him three days of meditation.
Lu You waved his hands indifferently and said with a smile: "Hey, it's just spiritual tea. How can I treat you like a treat? As long as Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't dislike it!"
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Lu is so polite. By the way, Mr. Wei came here this time to re-register his identity information. I don't know how to do it? Fellow Daoist Lu, please clarify!"
After a few pleasantries, Wei Hong took the initiative to bring the topic to business.
When Lu You heard this, the smile on his face became even more enthusiastic: "Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei must have just broken through to the foundation building stage, right?"
"Yes, Wei has just broken through to the foundation building stage less than half a year ago. He has just consolidated his realm recently and just returned to Immortal City today!" Wei Hong nodded and replied. He deliberately made the breakthrough time longer so that no one would associate it with the incident that caused the vision of heaven and earth.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Wei made the breakthrough outside the city?" Lu You said slightly surprised.
Wei Hong didn't hide anything and answered directly: "Yes, Wei found a secret place outside the city to retreat and break through, but luckily he succeeded!"
"Haha, Taoist friends are courageous and can make breakthroughs successfully. How come there is no luck? Isn't it all the chance and hard work of Taoist friends?"
Lu You didn't take it seriously, but laughed appreciatively.
Then he became a little more serious and said: "Since fellow Taoist has broken through to the foundation building stage, it is natural that the identity information should be re-registered. Fellow Taoist, please wait a moment!"
After saying that, Lu You took out a blank jade slip from his storage bag.
Then he began to ask Wei Hong some simple identity information, origin, etc.
These are things that do not need to be concealed, so Wei Hong naturally spoke out one by one.
After Lu You inquired clearly, he recorded Wei Hong's identity information, facial features, etc. into the blank jade slip.
After a while, he summoned a maidservant, placed the jade slips on the tray she was holding, and then ordered with a slightly majestic tone: "Take the jade slips to Dianlu Pavilion, have Haifeng register them, and register Wei Daoyou's Update your identity information.”
"Yes, sir!"
The maidservant's face was full of respect. After agreeing, she immediately left with the jade slip.
Lu You turned around and asked Wei Hong with a smile on his face: "Haha, since Fellow Daoist Wei has just made a breakthrough, I wonder where he will go next? Or can he be invited by others?"
"Uh, someone else's invitation? What does Fellow Daoist Lu mean?"
Wei Hong looked confused.
Lu You glanced at Wei Hong in surprise, then seemed to understand something, and immediately explained more enthusiastically: "Haha, it turns out that Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't know yet. It's like this. In our Cangshan Immortal City, if there is a breakthrough among casual cultivators, Once you reach the foundation building stage and register your identity information in our foreign affairs hall, you will most likely be invited by some immortal cultivating families. Generally, foundation building cultivators like fellow Daoist Wei will be invited to serve as guests of those cultivating immortal families. "
"Of course, these immortal cultivating families will also give generous benefits. I thought Fellow Daoist Wei had already received invitations from some families!"
After Lu You's explanation, Wei Hong suddenly understood. At the same time, he also understood why Lu You was so enthusiastic about him when they first met. He clearly wanted to win over a foundation-building casual cultivator like him for Cangshan Immortal City.
Although Wei Hong didn't ask about the reason, he was able to guess the reason.
Cangshan Immortal City is very large, and its foundation is not small. From various workshops, spiritual medicine gardens, spiritual plant gardens, mines and shops, to the punishment hall, Cangshan Guards, Cangshan Immortal Prison and patrol teams, etc., almost every A lot of manpower is needed everywhere.
In this way, even though there are millions of monks in Cangshan Immortal City, there are not many who actually join Cangshan Immortal City. Therefore, Cangshan Immortal City naturally welcomes casual cultivators like Wei Hong who can break through to the foundation building stage. At the same time, we also hope to attract more casual cultivators like this.
This is why he was received so warmly by Lu You when he came to the foreign affairs hall to register his identity information.
Lu You has obviously been doing this kind of thing for more than a day or two. It is estimated that there are definitely many foundation-building casual cultivators attracted to Cangshan Immortal City.
