Chapter 81 Tuzhou Beast Taming Sect
Following the aroma of wine, Liang Hui soon came to a cave hidden behind bushes.
As I stepped forward, the cave became dark.
He stretched out his palm, and a green light bloomed in his hand, illuminating the surrounding environment.
As we go deeper into the cave, the aroma of the wine becomes stronger and stronger.
Suddenly, the view opened up and what appeared before my eyes was an empty space.
The top of the space is inlaid with fluorescent stones, and wisps of light hang down, bringing light to the dim space.
Liang Hui dispersed the internal force in his palm and fixed his eyes on the stone platform in the center.
A groove was dug out on the top of the stone platform, and a golden and transparent liquid was placed in it, constantly emitting a rich aroma of wine.
"It's indeed the case, it's Monkey Wine!"
Whether in his past life or this life, he had heard of the name of monkey wine.
Not to mention the previous life, the monkey wine in this world is made from various precious medicinal fruits that are selected by monkeys.
It is of great benefit to the practice of martial artists.
He strode forward, came to the stone platform, and looked down at the golden liquid in the groove.
He took out a jade bowl from the storage space, filled it with half a bowl, and checked it to make sure there was no poison.
Take a sip.
The mellow, sweet taste fills the taste buds, and then turns into warm currents, traveling throughout the body.
At this moment, muscles, skin, tendons and bones all received a slight improvement.
'Nice effect, nice monkey wine.'
Drink the golden wine in the bowl in one gulp.
Even someone like Liang Hui, who is not good at drinking, couldn't help but admire the deliciousness of monkey wine.
He took out several jade bottles from the storage space and began to collect the wine in the grooves.
Only when there was no drop of wine in the groove did he put the four and a half jade bottles he had collected into the storage space.
For him, these drinks are definitely very good training materials, which can speed up his martial arts training.
After searching the cave again and finding no other treasures, Liang Hui took down a few pieces of fluorite and walked out of the cave.
Walking down the hill, we looked at the convoy that was cleaning up the battlefield after killing the monkeys.
Liang Hui looked indifferent, took a quick glance, and prepared to leave.
"My benefactor, please wait a moment."
Amid the old voice, a hunched figure walked quickly over, supported by several guards.
"What's the matter?"
Liang Hui stopped and put his hand on the hilt of the sword.
"Thank you for your rescue this time, benefactor. Otherwise, our team would all have died."
"It's a small gift of thanks, I hope you can accept it." The old man waved his hand, motioning the guard holding the wooden box behind him to come forward.
The guard stepped forward and respectfully opened the wooden box, revealing the items inside.
An irregularly shaped brown ore, dozens of gold leaves, and a layer of broken silver at the bottom of the box.
"My benefactor, this brown ore is called yellow chalcedony. It is a relatively precious stone. Whether it is used to make earth-attributed weapons or magical instruments, it will increase the power of the weapons and magical instruments to a higher level."
"There are also forty-three gold leaves and a thousand ounces of silver."
Liang Hui took a look at the items in the wooden box and then turned his gaze to the old man.
Gold leaves and silver are not valuable. Only the strange stone called yellow chalcedony is so precious that one can tell how precious it is just by listening to the old man's description.
"Old man, it seems that you haven't said enough?"
"My benefactor, judging from the direction you left, you should also be heading to Tuzhou. I hope you can escort us for a while, and then I will give you another valuable gift."
"Of course, whether you agree or not, the items in the wooden box are what you deserve."
Liang Hui chuckled, took the wooden box, turned around and left.
Saving his life, he deserves some reward.
As for conducting the escort, does he look idle?
The old man looked at the young man leaving, and a hint of anxiety flashed in his turbid eyes.
After the chase with the monkeys just now, the team suffered heavy losses and the last 10,000-mile journey back home was not easy.
If anything unexpected happens, all of them will be buried in a foreign land.
A hint of determination emerged from the depths of his cloudy eyes, and he shouted loudly: "Benefactor, please escort us for a while. I can apply for a jade token for you and lead you into the Blue Moon Pavilion."
Liang Hui stopped suddenly.
Turn around!
He looked at the old man being supported with a cold expression.
"How can you tell that I am not from a Taoist family or a large family?"
"I have seen a lot of things in the world. The children of big families and the proud sons of Taoist sects cannot have the momentum of you casual cultivators who have crawled out of the pile of dead bodies."
Hearing this, Liang Hui's indifference faded a little.
Slowly walked towards the old man.
"What is a jade token? What kind of power is the Blue Moon Pavilion? How could they possibly recruit a casual cultivator of my age?"
If there is no satisfactory response to what was said just now, the old man and the convoy will probably have to stay here.
The old man obviously noticed that the atmosphere was not right and stopped the guards who wanted to step forward to stop him.
Facing a cultivator who is much stronger than oneself and has an unstable personality, doing this will only make things go in a worse direction.
"Because of the contact with Chu Man, Tuzhou is not peaceful, and fighting with spies often breaks out."
"So in order to restrict the activities of Chuman spies, the court implemented a road permit system in Tuzhou. Ordinary people are not allowed to leave the 100-mile area where they live. Once discovered, the court can directly execute them."
"Only warriors and Taoists who have registered their information and obtained a pass can move around in Tuzhou with restrictions. The Jade Pass is the most prestigious pass, allowing them to move around freely in Tuzhou."
Following the old man's narration.
Liang Hui had already arrived in front of the old man. His expression turned cold and calm. He spoke:
"continue!"
"Blue Moon Pavilion is the most powerful force within a thousand miles of Yongning City. Its direct superior sect is the Beast Taming Sect, one of the overlords of Tuzhou. I am one of the outer sect deacons of Blue Moon Pavilion."
The old man stretched out his hand, took the water bag handed to him by the guard, took a sip, and began to speak.
The meaning of the words is very clear, showing one's identity and ability.
I have to say that Liang Hui was moved.
If you can join a force while protecting your own secrecy, you can obtain cultivation resources while hiding at a deeper level.
This force is neither strong enough to see through his disguise nor weak enough to be bullied by other forces at will. The Blue Moon Pavilion, backed by the Beastmaster Sect, is undoubtedly a good choice.
But the premise is that everything the old man said is true.
"I promised to escort you back to Tuzhou."
"I hope what you say is true."
Liang Hui walked slowly towards the convoy, and the old man's wrinkled face also showed a little relaxation at this moment.
With the help of the guards, he quickly followed.
"My benefactor, please take that carriage." The old man pointed to a relatively intact carriage in front.
Liang Hui nodded and was about to step forward.
The old man suddenly asked, "By the way, you still don't know the name of your benefactor?"
"Qin Dao!"
Liang Hui continued walking without stopping. As he approached the carriage, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The horses pulling the cart were not ordinary horses, but horse-shaped creatures with green scales and sharp teeth.
