Chapter 260 Surprise
The Qinghuan Realm is very large, and even the dialects vary within every ten miles, not to mention the customs within different spheres of influence.
The Qingshen Sect is located at the westernmost part of the East Continent. Except for the southeast corner bordering the Tianyin Sect, it is surrounded by mortal kingdoms. It is extremely far away from the Wanjian Sect. Naturally, the differences between the two sects in all aspects are huge.
Because he often accompanied Yue Jinxiu there in the past, Wei Wenxin had a relatively good understanding of the basic situation there.
It is known that there are many plains and hills in its territory, and its area is the largest among the nine sects and eighteen schools. Because of the characteristics of the sect, the distribution of spiritual veins is also the most scattered.
The location of the sect is even more special.
Wei Wenxin was so surprised when she went there for the first time!
Because the Qingshen Sect has no gate and no protective formation, if you walk along the official road towards its hinterland, at a certain point in time, you can see two huge trees standing on both sides of the road, with plaques with the three words "Qingshen Sect" hanging on the trees. From the two trees to the inside is the Qingshen Sect's mountain gate.
Inside the sect, there are spiritual fields and orchards everywhere, and villages of all sizes are scattered all over the place, covering an area that is frighteningly large.
When they went there, it was spring when everything was reviving, and the fields were full of monks working. When they saw them, someone came over to ask what they were doing, and then someone quickly took them to their destination.
Most of the monks of Qingshen Sect take up spiritual plant cultivation as a side job, and the entire sect is a mixed model of immortals and mortals living together.
Just like the Wanjian Sect provides free spiritual root testing for newborns and raises these children with spiritual roots for free, the Qingshen Sect also has its own tricks to ensure the number of new disciples.
That is to allow cultivators and mortals to live together.
After a long period of marriage and daily interactions, immortal cultivators have lived with mortals for generations, and their living habits are more like those of mortals.
In addition, they work in the fields all year round and don't like to settle in cities, so when they suddenly arrive in big cities, they will feel uncomfortable.
When he heard Wei Wenxin asking him if he was a cultivator from the Qingshen Sect, the man smiled naively, nodded, and thanked her for leading the way. Other than that, he didn't say anything else.
Wei Wenxin was not a talkative person. Except when she had ill intentions, she had never done anything to please someone who didn't like her. Seeing this, she ignored her.
The two of them took the same flying boat to the Wanjian Sect's floating platform. Wei Wenxin didn't wait for the other party to say anything, and directly stepped on the flying sword and returned to Lingsi Peak.
Her soul is injured now and she needs to rest well, so she has no intention of going anywhere else.
As a result, as soon as she returned to Lingsi Peak, before she could start practicing internal energy to heal her injuries, she received a sound transmission note from her uncle-master, asking her to go to the main peak.
Wei Wenxin thought to himself that he had not done anything bad recently, so he felt at ease. In addition, it was his own uncle who summoned him, so he went without thinking too much.
Then in the reception room of the main peak, she met the monk from the Qingshen Sect who had asked her for directions before.
"Uncle Master, do you have something to ask me?"
Although the words were addressed to Taoist Qingxuan, his eyes were looking at that person.
It was just a chance meeting before, and I didn't take a close look at him. I just remember that he was a dark-skinned, strong male cultivator. Now it seems that he has a rather honest face.
I think if someone like this comes to your door, what he wants to do won't be something that will cause trouble, right?
Thinking back to when she followed Yue Jinxiu to the Qingshen Sect to buy spiritual plants because of the Wudao tea saplings, even though they were obviously very wary of her, they still didn't forbid her from approaching those rare plants. They just sent high-level monks to accompany her the whole time.
Although I was very annoyed at the time and felt resentful for many years, now I think that the Qingshen Sect seems to be quite honest in doing things.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard my uncle introduce the man with a smile: "This is Senior Mu sent by Qingshen. He said he has something to talk to you about, and he will only tell you when you come."
Because they have lived with mortals for a long time, the monks of the Qingshen Sect do not take Taoist names and use their real names when they go out. Also because of this, they are also very good at hiding their cultivation level.
Therefore, it was not until now, when Wei Wenxin heard his uncle calling him "senior", that he realized that this was actually a Mahayana master.
Perhaps only the Mahayana masters of the Qingshen Sect would come here in a flying boat like him, and ask for directions honestly on the big platform of the flying boat. Wei Wenxin was slightly surprised for a moment, but did not ask any more questions. He just saluted respectfully:
"Hello, Senior. What is the matter that brought you here?"
She was injured now and had no intention of interacting with others. Plus, she was not familiar with the person and couldn't find a way to start a small talk, so she just asked directly.
When the cultivator surnamed Mu arrived at the Wanjian Sect, he told the disciples guarding the mountain that he wanted to see the sect leader, and did not go directly to find Wei Wenxin. When he met him now, he did not expect that the person he had been traveling with was the person he wanted to find. Thinking of the coldness he had received along the way, he could not help but feel embarrassed.
This man was not a smooth-talking person, and socializing was not one of his strengths. Seeing this awkward, he skipped the polite greetings and directly took out a deed paper and handed it to Wei Wenxin.
"I came to you because I have a soul contract that I need you to fulfill."
Without waiting for Wei Wenxin to extend his hand, Taoist Qingxuan's face turned cold and he extended his hand first.
"This is the contract that I made with Daoist Fellow Mingzhen. She explained the specific contents. Only Daoist Fellow Wei can read them first."
Taoist Qingxuan has always had a good temper, but he couldn't hold back his expression after hearing this.
"That's my master. She made a contract with you, but I can't see it. Instead, my nephew has to see it first? Is there anything she needs that I can't do for her? Only my nephew can do it?"
Now, not only the cultivator surnamed Mu was embarrassed, but Wei Wenxin was also embarrassed.
"Uncle Master, it's just a piece of paper. It's okay to take a look at it. Why don't you let me take a look first? This matter... My master didn't tell me about it before he ascended to heaven!"
Taoist Qingxuan hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
So, Wei Wenxin took the soul contract.
Then, it was recorded that there was a transaction between the master and the cultivator named Mu Qiushi.
Mu Qiushi gave her twelve active Wudao tea leaves, and she promised Mu Qiushi a Wudao tea tree on behalf of her disciple.
The prerequisite is that Wei Wenxin succeeds in cultivating the trees, and the number of successful trees is greater than one.
Wei Wenxin was stunned...
Now how to do?
Seeing that his uncle was staring at him with a concerned look on his face, he was afraid that there was something wrong with the soul contract.
But she hid that from her uncle...
But if he denied it, it meant that the master had signed a soul contract with this person. If he could not complete the transaction, when he ascended to the upper realm, the master would suffer the backlash of the contract.
Because the contract stipulated a term of one hundred years.
She said that every piece of the Enlightenment Tea in the sect was recorded, so where did her master get so many...
Daoist Master Qingxuan saw that she was like a stone statue, motionless after reading the contract, and couldn't help but frowned: "Haven't you finished reading it yet?"
Wei Wen was so anxious that sweat broke out on his back. The first thing he wanted to do was to ask his master for help. But what would his uncle think if he asked his master for help in front of him?
Wei Wenxin's heart was burning with anxiety and he vomited blood!
The two children have been coughing for a long time recently. They take medicine every day. Every time they take a medicine, I will tell them what the medicine is and what effect it has. They drink ambroxol hydrochloride. The name is a bit complicated. I told them many times but they didn’t understand. Sister Wang suddenly said, no wonder it tastes sour. Even if she didn’t know what hydrochloric acid was, she thought of sour when she heard the term. It feels like the children’s cognitive ability has become very strong without knowing it. Because I have never thought about these issues. Recently, there may be a new virus. The whole family has a cough. It still doesn’t get better. I feel annoyed.
