Drunk Immortal Gourd

The foundation-building disciples of Qingfeng Hall were arranged in an inn not far from the City Lord's Mansion. Calculating the time, it was still early to go to Yinfeng Gorge, and it was impossible to calm down and practice at this time, so Shang Ruhai and others asked Qingyang and Senior Brother Cai to go to Tujiao City Market together.

The market in Tujiao City is different from other places. The most sold things in the market here are some monster materials, such as monster blood that can be used to make talismans, monster inner pills that can be used to refine pills, monster claws and fur that can be used to make magic tools, monster bones and flesh that can be eaten, and even whole monster corpses. Almost everything is available.

If there are too many similar things, they are not valuable. These things are usually not sold at a high price. However, it has been rumored recently that the seven major immortal gates have entered Tujiao City together and are ready to unite to eliminate Yinfeng Gorge. This is a rare opportunity for communication, and of course it cannot be missed. So they took out their long-collected good things and prepared to sell them at a good price during this period.

The market in Tujiao City was much more lively than usual, with people coming and going. Qingyang and his group spent most of the day to visit the entire market. Everyone bought a lot of good things, and even Qingyang himself exchanged pills for a few demon beast inner pills.

In fact, demon pills are also a good material for the pill, because they contain the essence of demon beasts. They can be used to improve cultivation after being refined with some auxiliary medicines. However, low-level demon beast inner pills are easy to break and difficult to preserve for a long time, so they are rarely used to make pills.

Qingyang didn't study this aspect much, and he was too lazy to bother with it, but these demon beast inner pills were very useful to the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey. As a demon beast, the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey spent some time to absorb and refine the demon beast inner pills, and then turned them into his own cultivation.

It's just that the inner pills of low-level monsters are too fragile. The inner pills of monsters below level 3 are just a ball of gas inside the film, and the inner pills of levels 4 to 6 are all liquid. Often after a fierce battle, the inner pills of monsters are destroyed. Even if you occasionally get a complete one, it can't be stored for a long time. Therefore, the inner pills of monsters are extremely rare. After a round of shopping, Qingyang only bought three.

Two of them are level 3 monster inner pills, and the other one is level 4 monster inner pill. There are not many of them, but they can be used for a while. The Iron Arm Spirit Monkey uses the Soul Swallowing Technique to take the inner pills of monsters, which can maximize the energy loss. It is estimated that it can at least improve the cultivation of the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey by one level.

After visiting the market, the others returned to the inn. Qingyang remembered that Tian Shengcai lived in Tujiao City. When they were in Qingfeng Palace, they were considered friends. Now that he has come to Tujiao City, it's just a matter of passing by. It seems unreasonable not to go and see.

Ten years ago, Tian Shengcai felt that there was no development in Qingfeng Palace, so he gave up his identity as a disciple of Qingfeng Palace and returned to his hometown Tujiao City with Sang Qinglan to live his own life.

When you first join a sect, you choose a hope. If you have high enough qualifications or good luck, you will soar to the sky after crossing that threshold, while those who don't can only retreat sadly. When Tian Shengcai joined Qingfeng Temple, he was already at the age limit. His qualifications were average and his luck was not good enough. It was normal for him to end up like this.

With the strength of Tian Shengcai and Sang Qinglan, although they will not achieve much in Tujiao City, their lives will not be too bad. After all, Tian Shengcai has already reached the middle stage of Qi Refining, and he is considered to be in the upper middle class in Tujiao City. As long as he does not have any problems, he can always gain a foothold here.

Qingyang only knows where Tian Shengcai lives in Tujiao City, but he does not know the specific location. However, Tian Shengcai had an old house in the city before he joined Qingfeng Temple. He should still live there after returning. After asking around, it is easy to find Tian Shengcai's home.

This is an old house in the south of the city. There are many houses like this around. The area is less than one acre. It is not as good as the residence of the Qingfeng Palace's servants' courtyard. However, it is very good to have such a courtyard in Tujiao City compared to many low-level casual cultivators.

The door of the courtyard was open, and there seemed to be voices talking inside. Qingyang got closer and saw two groups of people standing in the courtyard. On the left was a middle-aged woman with slightly dark red skin, wearing an embroidered blue robe, and three children standing in a row next to her.

Qingyang recognized her at a glance. The middle-aged woman was Sang Qinglan. At this time, her cultivation level was the second level of Qi Refining. When she was in Qingfeng Palace, she was always stuck in the ninth level of Kaimai Realm and could not be promoted to the Qi Refining Stage. As a result, she broke through after returning to Tujiao City. I don’t know if it was due to the environment.

Needless to say, the three children must be the children of her and Tian Shengcai. The youngest is two or three years old, and the oldest is only seven or eight years old. The couple left Qingfeng Palace only about ten years ago. They gave birth to three children in a row. These years are considered to be remarkable achievements.

Opposite Sang Qinglan stood a middle-aged man and two young men. The middle-aged man was in the middle stage of Qi Refining, and the two young men behind him were only in the Kaimai stage. They should be followers.

At this time, the middle-aged man said, "Sang Qinglan, have you thought it over? Do you still want to save your husband? If you can't pay the spirit stones today, we will not show mercy."

Sang Qinglan looked miserable, and it was obvious that she had no other choice. She could only beg, "But we really don't have spirit stones now. If we could pay them back, we wouldn't have to wait until now. Boss Meng, can you wait a few days? Let's think of a solution?"

Boss Meng sneered, "Wait a few days? Wait a few days. Do you have spirit stones? I'll tell you the truth. If you can't pay the spirit stones today, we will completely destroy your husband's cultivation. It's only natural to pay back debts, even if you go to the City Lord's Mansion."

Sang Qinglan whispered: "We only borrowed 60 spiritual stones at the beginning. In just half a year, the principal and interest have increased to 150 yuan. How can we afford to pay it back? What's more, Lao Tian has already paid back I gave you a hundred yuan, and the rest is just interest. Can’t you just wait a few days?”

Boss Meng said: "No matter how much it is, it is what you agreed to at the beginning. To tell you the truth, as of today, the combined principal and interest has risen to 200 yuan, and the interest is increasing every day. Now you can't afford it. I won’t be able to afford it if I wait a few more days.”

No need for the other party to remind him, Sang Qinglan also understands this truth. The two hundred spirit stones can only go up and up. They can't afford it now, and they will definitely not be able to afford it in the future. The reason why they begged the other party to slow down for a few days is because they can't afford it. There are ways and means that can be delayed for a while.

Her husband was still being held captive by the other party, and she and her three children were the only ones left at home. What solution could she come up with? If it was just me, I would risk my life to fight the other party to the death. Now that I have a child, I have a bond, and I have to consider the consequences of everything I do.
