Chapter 201

The name Wu Zhu Zi sounds like a wild loose cultivator, cave master, or stronghold master. Which normal high-gate noble family would call themselves this? But when this person appeared in front of Liu Xiaolou, he broke his consistent cognition: dressed elegantly, behaved properly, and looked like a disciple of a major sect.

Liu Xiaolou originally thought he was introduced by some non-erect young master, just using a pseudonym, but as a result, this person opened his mouth and didn't mention the array.

"Sect Master Liu returned to the mountain, how do you feel?"

This question made Liu Xiaolou confused: "What do you mean how do I feel?"

Wu Zhu Zi smiled slightly and said: "When you were at Mount Shenwu, Sect Master Liu, as a son-in-law, traveled to high gates and entered cave heavens, with fine clothes and food, silk and bamboo music. Now that you have returned to this desolate mountain wilderness, with no one to ask about your daily life and no one to listen to your orders, are you still used to it?"

As soon as Liu Xiaolou heard this, his face sank.

Seeing him like this, Wu Zhu Zi was very determined in his heart, feeling that the matter was three-tenths done, and said again: "Actually, Sect Master Liu may not have realized that in Wulong Mountain, your reputation has long been in the sky..."

Liu Xiaolou suddenly interrupted him: "Friend's meaning, is it to persuade me to expand my momentum and expand my disciples?"

Wu Zhu Zi was stunned: "... Sect Master Liu... what do you think?"

Liu Xiaolou sneered: "How many people can you bring to shout and cheer to strengthen the momentum of my Three Mystical Sect?"

Wu Zhu Zi was overjoyed: "This is not a problem. Although I am not talented, I have extensive friendships. If Sect Master Liu is interested, in terms of manpower..."

Liu Xiaolou said impatiently: "Alright, alright, I know. To tell you the truth, you are late. Before you, others have already come to the door. If I have any intentions in the future, I will definitely find that family first. Everything has a first-come, first-served basis, don't you think?"

Wu Zhu Zi was very alert: "May I ask which family it is?"

Liu Xiaolou said: "It's not easy to say clearly, otherwise it will break the rules, don't you think?"

Wu Zhu Zi nodded slowly: "Understood..." He got up and said: "Since that's the case, I won't delay anymore. I just hope that when Sect Master Liu really has this intention, he will be more cautious. The so-called 'compare three families,' you also have to see whose foundation is stronger, don't you?"

Liu Xiaolou cupped his hands: "Thank you for your advice. Little Fang, send the guest off for me."

These two months, Fang Bu'ai consciously acted as a guest-welcoming envoy. As long as he was on the mountain, he would stop anyone who came up the mountain to visit, as long as they were not familiar to him, and let them go or drive them away after reporting up the mountain. He also took on the job of sending guests down the mountain.

This is the self-awareness of being a loose cultivator. If you want to survive on Liu Xiaolou's territory, you must embody your own value. And so far, Liu Xiaolou has only given him silver twice. Once was the settlement fee given when he was allowed to live at Half Pine Terrace, and the other was the reward for taking the initiative to attack Zhang Shihua. Each time ten silver taels.

The silver is enough for him to live, but there are no spirit stones for cultivation. Liu Xiaolou has no obligation to bear his cultivation, so he can only strive for opportunities himself, just like Liu Xiaolou didn't cultivate for half a year after his master passed away. Everyone understands this.

After Wu Zhu Zi went down the mountain, he turned back and asked: "Sect Master Liu said that someone had persuaded him to expand the sect and recruit disciples. Which family did they come from?"

Fang Bu'ai shook his head: "I don't know."

Wu Zhu Zi took out a large gold bead, weighing about one tael, and wanted to stuff it to him: "Was it someone from the Zhanglong Sect? Did your sect master agree?"

Fang Bu'ai didn't take it and took a step back: "The junior hasn't entered Sect Master Liu's blue eyes and hasn't had the luck to enter the sect. I am just taking shelter here. What you said, the junior doesn't know."

Wu Zhu Zi thought for a while and added another one: "Is it, or is it not? Just change it for one sentence from you."

Fang Bu'ai's face changed, and he drew his sword: "Are you insulting me? Although the junior's cultivation is low, I don't want to be insulted!"

Wu Zhu Zi snorted and flicked his sleeves away.

After Fang Bu'ai returned to the mountain, he bowed to Liu Xiaolou and reported: "Senior, I have sent this person down the mountain. Judging by the direction he went, it is Jade Maiden Peak."

Liu Xiaolou said disdainfully: "Going to sell to another family again."

Seeing that Fang Bu'ai was about to go down, he called him: "Little Fang, are you free these few days?"

Fang Bu'ai said: "If the senior has anything to order, please do so."

Liu Xiaolou said: "Do you know Moshan? Good, go to Moshan. There is a mountain hollow in the mountain, with a small waterfall spring three feet high. It is not high but wide, and you can see it at a glance. Under the cold pool where the spring water flows..."

Fang Bu'ai asked: "Senior wants the Xuan Stone at the bottom of the pool?"

Liu Xiaolou said: "I need one, the size of a fist will do, and also take a few drops of Spring Water Essence Jade."

Fang Bu'ai hesitated: "That is the place of the Moshan Sect..."

Liu Xiaolou smiled: "It doesn't matter, after you go, just report my name of the Three Mystical Sect."

As he spoke, he gave Fang Bu'ai two silver ingots: "This is one hundred taels. Buy it from them. After taking the Xuan Stone and Spring Water Essence Jade, go to Dongting Lake. There are large toads by the lake. Catch three or five in a bamboo basket and bring them back alive."

Fang Bu'ai nodded: "Understood, the junior will go down the mountain now."

Putting on his bamboo hat and carrying his long sword, Fang Bu'ai went down the mountain overnight, traveled eastward, bypassed Wuling Mountain, Tianmen Mountain, and Taoyuan Mountains, and arrived at Moshan.

A year ago, when he was still in the Row Sect, he had been to Moshan with his master. At that time, it was also for a piece of Moshan Xuan Stone, but Moshan was occupied by the newly established Moshan Sect, which insisted on exchanging spirit stones for Xuan Stone. These three elders of the Moshan Sect called themselves the Three Heroes of Heaven, Earth, and Man, and were extremely difficult to deal with. After fighting, his master and disciple didn't get the Xuan Stone and could only return without success.

At that time, his master said that he was prepared to make an appointment with the brothers in the sect to come again. Unfortunately, after returning, he went to Zhuoshui, and his master slept there forever, and he never had the chance to come over again.

Coming again today, not only to do things for Senior Liu, but also to fulfill the unfulfilled wish of his master. Although he is only at Stage 3 of Qi Refinement, he is not afraid to fight for his life!

Following the path he took with his master up the mountain last year, Fang Bu'ai soon reached the cold pool. The waterfall was still there, the thatched cottage was still there, the large stone with "Moshan Sect" standing in the mud was still there, and the Three Heroes of Heaven, Earth, and Man of the Moshan Sect sitting cross-legged by the pool were still there. It's just that his master was no longer by his side, and facing all this, there was only himself.

He turned his wrist slightly, true qi poured into his five fingers, and he was ready to fight to the death.

Three pairs of eyes cast on him, murderous intent spread, and the cold pool became solemn.

"Here to buy Xuan Stone? Do you know the rules of my Moshan Sect? One spirit stone, no second words!"

"I don't have spirit stones."

"No spirit stones? Go back where you came from, and come back with spirit stones!"

"I want Xuan Stone... and Spring Water Essence Jade."

"Can't you understand words? If you have spirit stones, I'll give them to you. If not, go back."

Fang Bu'ai pulled out his long sword from behind, and a dazzling light flashed in the sun.

The Three Heroes of Moshan laughed coldly and slowly got up. Heaven Hero said: "Young man, where are you from? Haven't you heard of the reputation of my three brothers? You still dare to do it?"

Fang Bu'ai suddenly remembered the entrustment of Sect Master Liu when he left, so he said: "The junior is from Dry Bamboo Ridge, Wulong Mountain, and came to take Xuan Stone under the order of Sect Master Liu. This is fifty taels of silver. If the three give Xuan Stone, the junior will bow and apologize. If the three don't give it, the junior cannot report back, and there is only death..."

Heaven Hero suddenly asked: "Wulong Mountain Sect Master Liu? Which Sect Master Liu? Could it be Sect Master Liu of the Three Mystical Sect?"

Fang Bu'ai was stunned, thinking, is Senior Liu's reputation so loud? Even these three of the Moshan Sect know? He replied: "Exactly."

The Three Heroes of Moshan suddenly laughed.

"So it was Sect Master Liu who sent you? Say it earlier!"

"That's right, the Three Mystical Sect and my Moshan Sect have a deep relationship. Sect Master Liu is a confidant of mine, almost an ally. Allies take stones, based on fifty taels of silver!"

"Right, right, right, besides the Three Mystical Sect, my Moshan Sect also makes friends with the Ziji Sect, both are allies."

"Kid, take it... this is Xuan Stone, after going back, ask Sect Master Liu for me."

Fang Bu'ai subconsciously took the Xuan Stone and subconsciously threw the silver over. He couldn't help but feel a bit confused. This piece of Xuan Stone was in his hands?

After thinking about it, he said again: "And Spring Water Essence Jade..."

"Easy to say!" Heaven Hero threw over a small porcelain bottle: "I'll give the Spring Water Essence Jade to your Sect Master Liu. Please ask him to come and see when he has time. After my Moshan Sect was established, he hasn't been here yet!"

Fang Bu'ai went down Moshan in a daze. After walking a few miles, he remembered that there were still Dongting large toads to catch, so he turned back and continued eastward.
