Chapter 51: Cheap Cultivator

"Brother, save me..."

The first sentence the young man spoke made Ji You's mouth twitch directly.

But fortunately, he had already recovered his physical strength and spiritual energy at this moment, directly leaping down from the air, and when he landed, he flicked his sword to slash an Evil Seed.

Subsequently, he summoned all the remaining six long swords, slashing while retreating, pulling that young man back to retreat.

The sound of the sword flying in the air whistled continuously in the black mist; the man was dumbfounded, filled with admiration in his heart, looking at Ji You's back as he waved his sword, his eyeballs were bright.

Fortunately, this area had been cleared by Ji You all the way, and except for the batch attracted by the man, there were only some stray Evil Seeds.

The young man saw that he had escaped from danger, unable to resist patting his chest: "Many thanks to Brother for the grace of saving my life."

"You are not an Immortal Sect disciple?"

"Uh... I am Yuan Yuanchen, here to lead the way for them."

Ji You turned his head to look at him after putting away his sword, and found that this man was simply tender-skinned and soft-fleshed, without even any calluses on his hands.

You must know that those living in Qiling Town were basically miners of the Hongshan Mine, or descendants of miners.

These people all lived bitter lives, how could they be born as fair and clean as him, and even his appearance was only a little bit worse than his own human peerless beauty.

"Why don't you make up another one?"

Yuan Yuanchen pursed his lips: "Ac... Actually, I am a miner's son, my family is in the Hongshan Mine, I want to go in."

After hearing this, Ji You put away his sword and left.

There were too many Evil Seeds at the entrance of the Hongshan Mine, and it was clearly not that easy for him to kill his way in directly, so he could only go back and reorganize first.

As for this man, he clearly wasn't telling the truth.

The current situation was too mixed; besides those he knew before, it was better to remain vigilant against such people.

However, the man named Yuan Yuanchen was reluctant to part, directly chasing after him: "Brother, I can see that you also want to go to the Hongshan Mine, we can join forces!"

Ji You stopped his footsteps and looked at him: "With you?"

"I can do things within my power, anything is fine, I just want to go in and find someone."

Ji You pondered for a moment, and drew his sword: "Stretch out your wrist."

Yuan Yuanchen had just rolled up his sleeves, and before he could stretch it out, he was slightly stunned: "What for...?"

"I'll cut a slit for you, you go run a lap at the entrance of the Hongshan Mine, and then attract all those Evil Seeds to the front of Beisha Town, let those cultivators deal with them, and I will sneak into the mining area."

"Hey, good idea!"

Yuan Yuanchen felt pleasantly surprised, but soon frowned tightly again: "Then how do I get out?"

Ji You looked at him: "With your IQ, hurry up and leave this place."

Just as they were talking, the Qiling Mountain in the distance suddenly bloomed with ten thousand rays of golden light, startling all the cultivators in Beisha Town for a time.

That was a fluctuation of spiritual energy that was extremely true and pure, beginning to spread continuously toward the outside of the mountains, even illuminating the mist deep in Qiling until it scattered.

Just at this moment, Ji You found that more flying swords began to gather here, looking at the light in the mountains, their eyes filled with amazement.

Yuan Yuanchen swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "That is the thing they are looking for..."

"Who is looking for it?"

"Immortal Sect."

Ji You looked at him: "Looking for what thing?"

Yuan Yuanchen looked at Ji You: "I don't know what thing it is either, but it must be something that can make the Immortal Sect feel moved."

"Truly hearing a gentleman's words is like hearing a gentleman's words."

"Hey, Brother..."

Yuan Yuanchen still wanted to chase, but didn't expect to be stopped by the group of cultivators who had come with him: "Young Master, you have also seen it, this place cannot be stayed in at all, let's go back."

"Cannot go back, I want to find my elder sister."

"Young Master..."

Yuan Yuanchen looked at them anxiously: "If elder sister really entered the mountains, then only the miners of the Hongshan Mine might have seen her tracks, so no matter what, I must go in."

The cultivators looked at each other: "Those ghost things, too many."

"That person, who can use seven swords at once, slashing like a whirlwind, I think he must be able to go in."

"He is the same as us, also just at the perfection of the Lower Three Realms!"

Yuan Yuanchen ignored them, turned around and chased after Ji You.

At this time, Ji You had already entered the town, but didn't return to the post station where they were staying, but was searching for the indigenous people of Beisha Town.

In his hand, he held a piece of grass paper, on which a wild goose spreading its wings was drawn, asking them if they had seen it.

This was given to him by Xiang Xiang Kuangcheng, and it was the cargo flag of the Yanxing Post Station; if they had really come here, someone should have seen it.

Sure enough, when he asked the second person, he had already found the answer.

That person was the blacksmith in the town, who nodded upon seeing it: "It's the cargo team that usually buys and delivers goods."

"Are there any children in their cargo team? Or crying sounds?"

"Children? How could there be children in the cargo team?" The blacksmith was somewhat puzzled.

Ji You was silent for a long time, thinking to himself, could Xiang Xiang Kuangcheng's intuition be wrong? Or were those abducted children actually transported elsewhere halfway?

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw two people from the Chen Clan also coming along the street.

They were also holding a piece of paper in their hands, asking people everywhere, but unlike the Yanxing map in Ji You's hand, they held a portrait in their hands.

Just at this moment, the man named Yuan Yuanchen chased up again, following behind sneakily.

"Brother, are you also missing family members when you go to the Hongshan Mine?"

"You are the one missing family members."

Yuan Yuanchen couldn't resist following a few steps: "Regardless of the purpose, Brother is going in after all, I can give Brother unimaginable rewards."

Ji You stood still after hearing the reward: "How much silver can you give?"

"?"

Yuan Yuanchen was stunned for a moment: "Silver is fine? There is still such a cheap cultivator..."

Ji You frowned.

Yuan Yuanchen immediately regained his senses: "After the matter is accomplished, I can give you a hundred taels."

"I am not that kind of cheap cultivator."

"Yellow ones."

Ji You was silent for a moment, and brought this young man back to the post station where everyone was staying.

He was originally going to save people, and could earn a sum of money in the middle, why not do it.

And this person clearly didn't have much brains, his experience in dealing with things was also insufficient, and he didn't have any martial power, so bringing him along was just bringing him along.

After returning to the post station, Ji You met up with Ban Ban Yangshu, Bai Bai Rulong, and others, and couldn't help but be a little curious when he saw him bring one back.

"Ji Shidi Ji, this is...?"

"Picked up on the road."

Ban Ban Yangshu was slightly startled after hearing this, thinking to himself that Ji Shidi Ji was indeed as the rumors said, if he didn't pick up something when he went out, it would be considered a loss.

Before at Wanzhuo Mountain, he picked up a stone and tucked it into his bosom, this time it was even more wonderful, he directly picked up a person and brought him back.

Ban Ban Yangshu regained his senses: "Tomorrow, we are going to formally scout the mountains; if any disciple refuses to go, they will be punished for the crime of betraying the sect."

"But I still want to go to the Hongshan Mine."

Yangshu was silent for a moment and then spoke: "Beisha Town needs someone to be here for coordination, I chose you."

Ji You bowed his hands after hearing this: "Many thanks, Senior Brother."

"You saved my life once, this time it counts as me returning the favor."

"..."

"Does Brother really not want to go into the mountains to take a look?"

After talking with Ban Ban Yangshu, Ji You went upstairs, Yuan Yuanchen followed behind, unable to resist asking a question.

Ji You pushed the door and entered the room: "Don't always Brother Brother, my surname is Ji, given name You, courtesy name Bochang, taking the meaning of drawing on the strengths of all."

"So it is Brother Ji."

Ji You invited him into the room, then sat on the couch, without saying a word, and began to let his spiritual sense fly through the sky.

The Sha Qi here had the power to shield the Heavenly Dao, so even Inner Court disciples could not sense the Heavenly Dao and could not cultivate.

Ji You had already tried it once earlier, and it was indeed so.

However, this was still beneficial to him, because he could infinitely temper his spiritual sense in this place.

It was as if when ancient people practiced martial arts, they liked to tie sandbags on their legs and hands; Ji You's spiritual sense now was like being tied with sandbags, even if he couldn't observe the Heavenly Dao, he could break through greater limits.

Yuan Yuanchen saw that he had already entered meditation, spiritual energy whistling continuously around him, feeling a bit bored, so he took out a volume of books from his bosom.

This was a popular novel in the Qingyun world, called "Flying Immortal".

The story was roughly about an Immortal Sect young master who fought against friends from all directions, and finally stepped into the sky and went straight into the void, becoming a story of a generation of immortals.

Yuan Yuanchen seemed to yearn for this blood-boiling story, his eyes shining, reading without letting go of the book.
