Chapter 28 Team Building
The old man in green seemed to be very interested in the hat and raincoat Ye Ling was wearing, and even asked about the price.
"No comment!"
Ye Ling said coldly, staring at the mysterious old man in green in front of him through the gauze of the bamboo hat. There was always a feeling that he could not see through and guess, but Ye Ling clearly felt a familiar aura from him!
This breath seems to be integrated with nature, exuding the faint fragrance of vegetation.
Ye Ling's thoughts moved and he asked tentatively: "Could it be that you are a herbalist?"
The old man in green clothes was slightly startled. He glanced at Ye Ling meaningfully, with a look of approval on his face. He twisted his beard and said with a smile: "I not only collect medicine, but also make elixirs! You are a little kid who is smart and cautious enough, and you are so close to me." The aura on Lao Chan’s body is similar, he’s probably an alchemy cultivator too! Hahaha, let’s go into the cave to find out what’s going on, shall we?”
Ye Ling was shocked when he heard that he could make alchemy. It seemed that this mysterious old man in green was on his way to alchemy cultivation, at least to the level of an alchemy disciple or above! Ye Ling saw that he didn't seem to have any designs on her. He didn't seem to have any ill intentions at all, but was actually kind to her.
In addition, both of them are alchemy cultivators and deal with spiritual herbs all day long. Their auras are similar. Ye Ling may learn a lot of experience in collecting herbs by walking with him. So Ye Ling pondered for a moment and clicked. He nodded and agreed to introduce him.
"Miss Yun, this fellow Taoist cultivator at the fifth level of Qi training knows how to make elixirs and has rich experience in collecting medicines. Why don't we let him join our team!"
Yun Wan, a female disciple of the Fengchi Sect, looked up and down at the old man in green. She saw that he had a white beard and a boyish face. He was very old, and his experience in collecting herbs must be unmistakable. However, Yun Wan also had extremely high requirements for the team's combat strength, so she asked the old man: "I wonder what Taoist arts this elderly fellow Taoist knows? Does he have any second-level or higher-grade magic weapons?"
The old man in green chuckled and said: "What I'm good at is wood-based Taoism, and I know how to entangle and change the shape of grass and trees. Haha, is it a second-level magic weapon? I haven't used it for a long time! I just want to show you a gadget."
While he was talking, the old man took out an object from his storage bag, but it was a made-up straw man. He poured mana into the straw man and threw it to the ground. The straw man grew in the wind, and in an instant it grew into half a tree. People are tall!
"The combat power of this kind of straw man is not weaker than that of second-level monsters. I can summon several of them at the same time."
The old man in green twisted his beard and said with a smile, he was full of confidence and it was obvious that what he said was true.
Yun Wan and Xiao Rong stared at the straw man on the ground with wide eyes, looking at each other.
The elite disciple of the Yuxu Sect who failed to form a team was still well-informed. He was still holding off on leaving because he really couldn't bear to miss the opportunity to team up with the two beauties. When he saw this, he said slowly: "Hey, you can tell at a glance that it is a Taoist technique from the Mu Puppet Immortal Sect! There is no sect under the Mu Puppet Immortal Sect around our Maple Bridge Town. You old man must be from outside, right?"
The old man in green didn't seem to take his rude words to heart. He shook his head and said, "Well, I did travel here from outside and caught up with the opening of the Songyang dense forest cave. But I'm not from the Wood Puppet Immortal Sect. Rather, he is similar to the disciple of this fisherman wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat."
The wretched elite disciple of Yuxu Sect intended to show off his talents in front of the two beauties of Fengchi Sect. Unexpectedly, he was half-denied by this bad old man. He was so angry that his face turned blue and white, and he said displeasedly: "Old man Son, you sincerely oppose this cultivator, right? Let me tell you, this cultivator knows both thunder and wood techniques. It can be seen at a glance! Not only do you practice wood techniques, but you also use wooden puppets. This is something that is difficult for ordinary wood cultivators to learn. Only members of the Wood Puppet Immortal Sect have the opportunity to learn such secret techniques. Don’t you admit it?”
The old man in green looked at him with a rather pitiful look, as if looking at a frog at the bottom of a well, shook his head, sighed, and ignored him.
Yun Wan and Xiao Rong were both very interested in the green-clad old man's transformation into vegetation. They communicated secretly with their spiritual consciousness and agreed to the green-clad old man's request to join the team.
The Yuxu Sect disciple immediately quit, clamoring to join the team, and said loudly: "Hey! I said the two junior sisters from Fengchi Sect, even they can join your team, why don't I Okay? I'm at the seventh level of Qi training, and I'm very skilled in Taoism. I use a third-level high-grade magic weapon, and my combat power is much stronger than theirs! If you have any concerns, then I'm afraid that I'll steal the captain's position. I swear with my heart, I will never do anything to harm the captain and my teammates, right?"
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that this person was so difficult to deal with. He seemed to be possessed by a madman and had to join their team.
Seeing him swearing, Yun Wan smiled softly and said to herself: "Although he is a late-stage Qi-training monk, it's rare that he is willing to go with us. It's much easier to control him with the soul-obsessing technique!"
So Yun Wan said with a smile: "It's rare that this senior brother from Yuxu Sect is very sincere. Please make a vow to come and join our team!"
As expected, the wretched disciple of the Yuxu Sect bit his finger, drew a blood talisman in the air, and swore an oath of inner demons.
At this moment, Ye Ling and the old man in green were looking at him with pity, as if they had infinite sympathy for this wretched guy.
Ye Ling had experienced the Fengchi Sect's charm skills, and had a certain understanding of Yun Wan's nature of a peach-like face and a snake-like heart. The relationship with her was just mutual use.
The old man in green sighed at this matter and said to Ye Ling: "Hey! Today's little babies are getting worse from generation to generation. How can it be that the demons in the heart are hairy? It is rare for a little kid like you to be both smart and cautious. Yes. But judging from your spiritual root qualifications, it seems to be very average!"
Ye Ling was shocked. This old man could not only see through his bamboo hat and coir raincoat, but also his spiritual talent! Could it be that he is gifted with unusually powerful spiritual eyesight?
The wretched disciples of Yuxu Sect joined their team and introduced each other. It turned out that this wretched man was called Feng Kaiyu. He was an elite disciple of Yuxu Sect in the north of Fengqiao Town. He also rushed to Songyang Jungle after hearing the news.
Ye Ling also learned that the mysterious old man in green was surnamed Liu. After the teammates got to know each other, the group came to the entrance of the natural cave, each took out a medium-grade spiritual stone and handed it to the Yun Cang Sect guarding the entrance of the cave. Elite disciples are considered as money to get into the cave.
The wretched Feng Kaiyu felt great pain and reluctantly handed over the spirit stone. As an elite disciple of the same sect, Yun Cang Sect took the initiative and occupied such a cave. However, as a disciple of Yuxu Sect, he was a guest from afar and had to bow his head and hand over the spirit stone.
Yun Wan, Xiao Rong and the old man in green were all very generous. They threw out a middle-grade spiritual stone without even looking at it, which surprised the monks around who were planning to enter the cave. It seemed that these three were all qualified. The owner of money!
Some monks even had bad intentions, with a hint of evil in their eyes, and secretly took note of the three of them.
Ye Ling quietly dispersed his consciousness, paying attention to the movements of the people around him at all times. Seeing that many of them had unkind eyes, he was secretly frightened and worried about Yun Wan and others being too high-profile.
"Slow down! You guy wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat, what kind of cultivation level do you have? There is Elder Yu who is in the late stage of our sect's foundation building. You don't have to muddle through!"
Ye Ling knowingly opened his coir raincoat, showing his fourth level of Qi training, and was able to pass.
When he paid the spirit stone, he pretended to dig around in the storage bag for a while. It wasn't until someone urged him from behind that Ye Ling pretended to be in pain and took out a middle-grade spiritual stone and handed it over.
Sure enough, no one behind him was thinking about Ye Ling. They all thought he was a poor cultivator and simply ignored him.
As soon as Ye Ling stepped into the cave, he heard a familiar crisp voice from behind: "Grandpa, let's go straight into the cave!"
Ye Ling suddenly turned around, and through the gauze of his bamboo hat, he saw Old Xue Tou and Xue Xiang'er who sold him the second-level fire eagle and the little green fox!
Following their grandfather and grandson, there was also a gorgeously dressed woman in green clothes, who was also with them! As for the other two strong men in their team, Ye Ling didn't know them.
"As expected! The ancestors and grandsons of the Xue family of the Dongguan takeout monster are here, together with the woman in green clothes who mocked me. Hehe, judging from the situation, the relationship between them is extraordinary. Maybe this woman in green clothes is here He is also a member of the Xue family of Cuizhu Villa in the eastern suburbs!"
Ye Ling sneered in his heart. He was covered with a bamboo hat and a raincoat to prevent them from recognizing him. Finally, at Xiao Rong's urging, he followed the team and went deep into the natural cave.
Captain Yun Wan sent Feng Kaiyu of Yuxu Sect to lead the way. In order to show his heroic spirit as a man, Feng Kaiyu readily agreed.
Yun Wan didn't even need to use the Soul Capturing Technique, Feng Kaiyu was very willing and active! This caused Ye Ling and the old man named Liu in Qingyi to sigh.
As soon as he entered the cave and walked less than ten feet, Ye Ling felt that the cave was much colder than the outside. It seemed to have an icy air. He could even see the blue light flashing on the stone walls of the cave. It was obvious that inside There are a lot of Bingling mineral rocks.
Feng Kaiyu took the lead in clearing the way and stared at the groups of monks in front of him. While showing off his extensive knowledge, he turned back to the two female monks from Fengchi Sect and said nonstop: "I think this natural cave itself is a place rich in spiritual energy. Mine veins. Although the ice spirit energy contained in the ice spirit rock on the wall of this cave is very weak, it is still valuable for mining. The Yun Cang Sect can definitely send its outer disciples to mine here, and the annual output will be huge. Not a small amount."
The old man surnamed Liu in green clothes immediately retorted and said calmly: "No sect would like these first-grade ice ore rocks at the entrance of the cave! They also use a lot of manpower to dig out such first-grade ore, haha, it's ridiculous. !”
Feng Kaiyu blushed and said plausibly: "How do you know that the Bingling Mine here has no mining value? It's all nonsense to rely on your old man and sell your old man."
The old man in green was too lazy to talk to him. He put his hands behind his back, as if he was sensing something, and said with a satisfied smile: "Haha, the spiritual energy deep in the cave is much richer. It seems that the spiritual ore inside is of good quality! Such spiritual energy There will definitely be low-level monsters in the cave, so you little ones should be careful."
