Chapter 1735 Long-term plan
After dressing up as a casual cultivator with only the foundation-building realm, Wang Lun chose a safe route and came to a nearby city called Feihua City.
This city in Dongzhou is as warm as spring all year round, and the climate is even better than Kuncheng in China. The small shop that Wang Lun saw the most after entering the city was probably the flower shop.
Feihua City is not large in scale, and if you want to find the information you need, it is afraid that it will be difficult to rely on the inn or teahouse to listen to others chatting, but Wang Lun had a solution long ago.
Wang Lun went to a small shop selling low-level magic weapons and asked the store owner. He knew that the largest treasure pavilion in Feihua City was still the branch pavilion opened here by Qizhen Pavilion. The second largest treasure pavilion was Feihua Bao pavilion, which was opened by a sect in Feihua City.
Wang Lun did not go to the branch pavilion of Qizhen Pavilion, but went straight to Feihua Bao Pavilion.
Feihua Bao Pavilion has only two floors. After entering the lobby, Wang Lun saw only two shopkeepers standing behind the counter, and there were a few young girls sitting bored at the table, looking through the information and other things.
There was no one in the door. There was no guest inside, and Wang Lun happened to be happy to see this scene.
"Customer, welcome to our store."
A middle-aged shopkeeper met Wang Lun and immediately greeted him with a warm smile.
Wang Lun showed a somewhat awkward and at a loss. He walked to the counter and his voice seemed a little indifferent: "Shopkeeper, I'm not here to buy things in a store."
The middle-aged shopkeeper looked at Wang Lun carefully and realized that this person was probably not from Feihua Bao Pavilion to make a deal. He couldn't help but feel disappointed, but he still maintained a certain politeness and said, "Why did the customer come to our store?"
"I want to find out some news," Wang Lun's expression at this moment naturally matched what a casual cultivator with low cultivation should look like. "Shopkeeper, I would like to ask the monk from Wanjian Sect, is he also pursuing Wang Lun's whereabouts outside the city of our Feihua City?"
"That's right," said the middle-aged shopkeeper strangely, "Is it possible that the guest official has a clue about Wang Lun?"
The older shopkeeper next to him didn't even raise his head and continued to lower his head to do things. Obviously, even if he heard what his colleagues said, he did not feel curious.
"I can't do it, I can't do it even if I want it." Wang Lun smiled awkwardly.
The middle-aged shopkeeper suddenly felt that he was a little tender compared to the veteran shopkeeper next to him. Look at him, if he had known that the casual cultivator in front of him, he would not have any curiosity at all.
"Why did the customer come into the store just to ask this?" The middle-aged shopkeeper's attitude became a little colder.
Nowadays, few cultivators in the cultivation world do not know that Wanjianmen is sending people everywhere to search Wang Lun's whereabouts. There is no need for this casual cultivator to come in and ask. The casual cultivator is also a cultivator, and there are at least a few friends around him. If you are interested in asking, how could you not know the most dynamic things in the spiritual world at present?
Wang Lun shook his head and said politely: "That's right. Does the shopkeeper know that Wanjianmen is short of people in Feihua City? If their search team is confirmed, I want to join."
The middle-aged shopkeeper was amused: "What is the purpose of joining the guest?"
Wang Lun smiled and said, "If I could take this to make some connection, maybe the fate of my casual cultivator could change, and it would be better if I could earn a little spirit stone if I was not good."
The middle-aged shopkeeper realized that this casual cultivator who came into the store had no idea about the investigation of Wang Lun in Wanjianmen!
"The guest officer is thinking too much, Wanjianmen will not recruit people." The middle-aged shopkeeper replied simply, then lowered his head to work on his own affairs. The meaning was very obvious and he no longer answered or received.
This casual cultivator really wants to be a waste. The Wanjian Sect is not stupid. At this stage, as long as you give a reward to the outside world, some casual cultivators take the initiative to do things, and there is no need to pay real money to ask for someone.
After waiting for a few breaths, the middle-aged shopkeeper looked up and saw that Wang Lun had not left yet. He couldn't help but frown and asked, "What else do you want to ask if the guest officer?"
"Yes, yes," Wang Lun said quickly, "Shopkeeper, are there any other sects besides Wanjian Sect recruiting people?"
The middle-aged shopkeeper didn't say anything. Because he was not asking the other party what else was going on, but was calling the other party to leave in disguise. Unfortunately, the other party couldn't understand what he said, so of course he was too lazy to give any answers.
However, Wang Lun patted the storage bag on his waist, took out two low-grade spirit stones, and handed them over: "Shopkeeper, please inform me more about this. I want to take this opportunity to try my luck and try to change my destiny."
There were only two low-grade spirit stones. The shopkeeper didn't like it very much. He wanted to ask for another point, but when he saw the casual cultivator handing him the spirit stone, he still held his hand in a weak position, looking like he couldn't bear it, and he knew that it was impossible to ask for a price again.
No matter how small the legs of a mosquito is, it is still fleshy. Anyway, it’s still idle, so it’s okay to talk about it.
The middle-aged shopkeeper used his finger to grab two low-grade spirit stones from Wang Lun's hand and said, "Wanjian Sect is pursuing Wang Lun's whereabouts. In order to allow more people to participate, he specially issued a reward. Not only was the casual cultivator moved, but even some sect forces were moved. In our Feihua City, at least one-quarter of the cultivators in this city are doing this. Just like you, the monks who want to find Wang Lun's whereabouts to change their destiny by finding Wang Lun's whereabouts, haha, they can line up from this end of Changhua Street to the other end."
"So, no sect has recruited people?" Wang Lun asked.
"Of course," said the middle-aged shopkeeper, "If you want to get the benefits, you can only find Wang Lun's whereabouts and sell the news to Wanjianmen."
Wang Lun grinned bitterly.
The middle-aged shopkeeper thought to himself, I don’t know how many casual cultivators who are like daydreaming, and what turn they get to get.
However, he still told the relevant information and added, "Of course, if you sell the news to the city lord's mansion like our Feihua Pavilion, or the city lord's mansion in Feihua City, or the local sect, it is also fine. After all, it is difficult for a casual cultivator to directly contact the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and the Ling Sect."
"Ling Zong?" Wang Lun asked pretending to be surprised.
"Yes," the middle-aged shopkeeper suddenly lowered his voice, "Lingzong is also looking for that Wang Lun. I heard that he was singing a stage drama with Wanjianmen. Wanjianmen wanted to kill Wang Lun, and Lingzong wanted to protect that person. But I heard the rumors. Lingzong secretly released the news. The sect leader personally promised to recruit Wang Lun sincerely. As long as Wang Lun is willing, Lingzong will provide Wang Lun with a safe and status position in the Lingzong. So if you are lucky enough to find Wang Lun's whereabouts and contact Lingzong, you can still get benefits and turn over completely."
What Wang Lun wanted was news about this. Seeing that he had almost finished inquiring, he found an opportunity to end the topic and said goodbye and left.
After he left, the old shopkeeper spoke out: "There are so many casual cultivators who are ambitious all day long."
"Isn't that true? There are five or six casual cultivators who have entered our treasure pavilion to find out the news in these ten days. At least two-thirds of the casual cultivators in Feihua City searched for cliffs, valleys, underground rivers and other places outside the city. They all wanted to find Wang Lun's whereabouts and sold the news to Wanjianmen, so they could completely turn over." The middle-aged shopkeeper was in a good mood, after all, he got two low-grade spirit stones.
The old shopkeeper naturally looked down on the spirit stone obtained by his colleagues, but he continued the other party's words and nodded, "These people are too greedy and want to reach the sky in one step, but they don't think about it. Even if they really find Wang Lun's whereabouts, can they have the fate to leave Wang Lun?"
...
Wang Lun bought some cooked food in Feihua City, such as braised beef, braised mutton, etc., and then left the city directly. When he arrived at a place where no one paid attention, he sacrificed the Thousand Destroy Spirit Sword and began to fly in the air.
On the way of flying in the air, I also saw some monks. Most of the monks saw that he was driving a flying sword from afar and dodged directly. They were not afraid of him, but they did not want to meet him. They obviously regarded him as the sword cultivator of the Wanjian Sect.
After Wang Lun was sure that no one was monitoring him behind or around, he landed in the deep mountains and forests. It had been seven or eight hours since he just flew.
Although he is still in Dongzhou, he is 108,000 miles away from Feihua City. Wang Lun learned from the map that he was outside Shuangshui City, very far from the city, and the mountains and forests he stayed in were completely primeval forests.
This time, Wang Lun still spent a lot of time to make sure he did not break into the territory of the monk who was cultivating here, and then dug a suitable stone cave.
It is also good to continue to live in the stone cave. Although the air inside cannot be convection and the light also needs to be provided by magic weapons, for monks, such an environment is nothing. Wang Lun’s first choice is to be hidden and safe enough.
After settling down, Wang Lun also had time to analyze the information he got at Feihua Bao Pavilion.
The actions of Wanjianmen were not unexpected. Wanjianmen must have used all the people they could use. Not to mention anything else, he had temporarily stayed in the deep mountains outside Feihua City, and during this period, a team of people searched the place. The number of times a single monk passed by that place must have been once or twice.
Compared to before Ling Ye's death, the search force of Wanjianmen on him increased a lot.
Wang Lun also realized that the next time he officially appeared in the spiritual world, he probably would have to join the Spirit Sect. After all, as long as he showed up in his true face, within an hour, there would definitely be monks monitoring him and even siege him.
Fortunately, I don’t need to show up to do business now, so I can find a place to practice hard like now. No matter how wildly Wanjian Sect searches for his whereabouts, it is difficult to find out.
Although Wang Lun had imagined that the reaction of Lingzong would happen, he was still a little surprised after it really happened.
Guo Qunqi of Lingzong actually spoke to the public, wanting to attract him. Since even an ordinary shopkeeper of Feihua Bao Pavilion knows this news, it means that it must have not been revealed in the past two or three days, and it has appeared much longer.
This can basically be inferred that when the Wanjian Mangsu mobilized people to find someone to investigate his whereabouts, Lingzong was not idle either. He went against the Wanjian Sect and threw an olive branch to him.
"After all, it's up to me to kill Ling Ye and fight against Wanjian Sect head-on, so that the opponents of Wanjian Sect noticed me."
Wang Lun was naturally very clear that the decision to attract him was made in part to disgust Wanjian Sect and make the face of Wanjian Sect continue to be lost.
"In addition, it is impossible for Lingzong to favor me because he cherishes talents. Whether it is Wanjian Sect or Lingzong, he cannot tolerate me, who is disrespectful to the sect power."
Therefore, a bigger reason for Guo Qunqi attracting himself is naturally because he is attracted by his own value.
But he is not trying to get a slut with a tiger.
Guo Qunqi wants to use himself, but Guo Qunqi would not have thought that the casual cultivator who was not very strong in his eyes also took advantage of the value of Lingzong.
"As soon as I joined the Lingzong, no matter what position Guo Qunqi gave me, I could try to achieve some results. Even if I cannot become a permanent cultivator in the Lingzong's time and space city due to trust issues, I will have the opportunity to obtain identity certificates and be able to enter and exit the time and space city with the certificates."
Wang Lun ventured to join the Ling Sect, and his only purpose was to obtain a legal identity. He could enter when he wanted to enter the Time and Space City, especially when he entered the inner domain of the Time and Space City.
Wang Lun also estimated that even if you join the Ling Sect now, you will have less time to obtain this power in three or five years. It is probably possible to spend ten years. After all, the defense of the Time and Space City is too strict and the access rules are very strict. Now those who can enter and exit the Time and Space City are all monks, and they are all monks trained by the twelve sects themselves.
Like servants, people like Xiang Chushan, and others who do not directly participate in the transformation of space-time channels cannot enter and exit at will, no matter whether they are ordinary people or monks.
Therefore, when he joined the Ling Sect as a casual cultivator, it would be impossible for the Ling Sect to trust him so much within a few years, allowing him to obtain the special qualifications to enter and exit the time and space city.
