Chapter 2379 Clam Pearl
"Daoist Fellow Chi Lian?"
Qin Sang pretended to be surprised, "Why are you here?"
"I misjudged the situation in Shilong Mountain and made a big mistake. I was thrown into the Renzi Altar and finally demoted to this place to assist Qing Xiao. My merits will atone for my crime, and I will not be allowed to be promoted within a hundred years..."
Chi Lian showed a dangerous smile, "When you disappeared without a reason, I thought you were in danger, and it took me a long time to find you. Today, I see you are safe and sound, and I can finally rest assured."
A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Qin Sang, and there was a hint of gnashing of teeth in her tone.
At the beginning, Chi Lian used Qin Sang as a chess piece, but Qin Sang took away all his dragon gallstones and gold.
It now seems that Chi Lian's plan ultimately failed, and he was punished within Wuxianzhai.
This punishment is quite severe.
As for how much Chi Lian's defeat had to do with himself, Qin Sang was naturally not stupid enough to ask.
"I just happened to receive an urgent message at that time. It was a matter of great importance, so I left in a hurry and had no time to report to you. However, I still want to thank you for your concern," Qin Sang bowed to Chi Lian solemnly.
Knowing that Qin Sang was talking nonsense, Chi Lian had no way to deal with him.
After all, it was she who used Qin Sang first. Qin Sang saw through the plot and only took away the dragon gallstones and gold, but did not collude with the enemy. Who could accuse him of anything wrong?
She could only blame herself for underestimating Qin Sang. One wrong move led to a complete loss.
Mo Yan looked at Qin Sang, then at Chi Lian, and saw the subtle atmosphere between them. He pretended not to know and said with a smile: "Since the two of you have a long history, I hope you can work together and help me. Mo Yan will be very grateful!"
He bowed and side-stepped, "There are some light wine and mussels in the forest. Please come in."
"Daoist Fellow Chi Lian, please go first."
Qin Sang ignored Chi Lian's gaze and invited her to go with him in a graceful manner.
Chi Lian snorted barely perceptibly, then flicked his sleeves and walked in.
They followed Mo Yan into the depths of the bamboo forest and smelled a strange fragrance. They saw that there was indeed fine wine and a feast prepared in front of a bamboo building.
"You two distinguished guests, please take your seats!"
Mo Yan invited him warmly, and after sitting down, he looked around and said, "I have two other brothers. I don't know why they are late today. Let me urge them."
Before he finished speaking, a crisp ringtone rang out around him.
Qin Sang noticed that there were bamboo bells hanging on the eaves of the bamboo building. At this moment, they were all played together, and the sound of the bells spread in the night, which was quite elegant and interesting.
At this time, Qin Sang noticed Chi Lian's gaze and looked back.
The anger in Chi Lian's eyes had disappeared. He smiled at Qin Sang and asked Mo Yan, who was sitting at the main table, "I have heard of the great names of the Three Feixian Friends for a long time. Will Mo Yan's two brothers also go with us?"
Mo Yan nodded and said, "Third brother will go with us, and second brother must hide in the dark. In case of any misfortune, he can also help us. Therefore, I will rely on you two a lot on this trip."
As they were talking, the bamboo leaves rustled and two people came riding on the wind.
One of them was wearing colorful silk clothes and exquisite jewelry, looking noble but not vulgar.
He was very handsome. Although he was a man, he was bright and charming. He could compete with Chi Lian in beauty and was not inferior to her in any way.
He has a sweet smile and his voice can be heard before he arrives.
"I'm too late..."
The other person following behind him was also a handsome young man, thin and serious.
Qin Sang noticed this person and saw that he was a reserved person. This temperament made Qin Sang think of a human swordsman.
"You deserve to be punished! You deserve to be punished!"
Mo Yan laughed heartily and sent his maid to pour wine.
The maids were all flower spirits, each of them was very charming. They brought wine jugs and filled the wine glasses.
The two men were very straightforward. They apologized and drank the whole thing in one gulp.
At this time, Mo Yan introduced the two parties, "Second brother Wuxian, third brother Duanqiao, are you going to meet the two Taoist friends?"
The two sides greeted each other, exchanged pleasantries, and toasted each other, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.
"Inkstone, no string, broken sheath..."
Qin Sang secretly looked at the three monsters and thought to himself what strange names they had.
At this time, Qin Sang heard Chi Lian's voice transmission, "Among the three Feixian friends, Duanqiao's cultivation is slightly weaker, similar to Daoyou, and Wuxian's strength should be on par with mine. Only Moyan is the most mysterious. It is said that this monster has a treasure that can hide its energy and hold its breath. Moreover, this monster is good at dancing with long sleeves, has a wide range of friends, has never been an enemy to anyone, and no one knows his true strength..."
Chi Lian actually took the initiative to transmit the message and informed Qin Sang of the information about the three Feixian friends.
Qin Sang pretended to be in the early stage of Refining Void, while Chi Lian was in the middle stage of Refining Void. The aura displayed by Duan Shao and Wu Xian was exactly the same as theirs.
Only Mo Yan, even Qin Sang couldn't see through him.
This is quite interesting.
If this monster is a late-stage Lianxu strongman, why would he need to recruit guards? Perhaps, as Chi Lian said, he has a treasure that can hide his energy and breath.
“Fellow Daoist, it seems like there’s something else you’re saying, so why not just speak frankly,” Qin Sang said.
Chi Lian said: "They are as close as brothers, but you and I are hired here. You won't risk your life for your employer, right? We are natural allies, so it's best to put aside our grudges..."
"I have no grudge against you, fellow Taoist!"
Qin Sang's tone sank, "What do you know, fellow Daoist? If this journey is too dangerous, I will take my leave now and will not go!"
"Fellow Daoist, you really know how to protect yourself!"
Chi Lian couldn't help but sarcastically said, "I haven't heard any rumors, but I'm just preparing for a rainy day. I'm worried that you will suddenly disappear like last time, leaving me alone and helpless."
Qin Sang laughed and said, "Don't worry, Daoist friend. I will definitely let you know in advance this time."
"I'll try him first..."
Along with Chi Lian's voice transmission, bursts of stringed instrument sounds also reached his ears.
Qin Sang put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at Wuxian opposite him. He saw this demon holding a pipa, with an intoxicated expression and beautiful music flowing from his fingers.
The sound was like heavenly music, and the maidservant Hua Ling was so mesmerized that she forgot to pour the wine.
There is not a single string on this pipa, which is in line with its name "stringless".
All the monsters were intoxicated. Chi Lian suddenly stood up and said, "I have heard that Daoist Mo Yan has unparalleled painting skills. Can you draw a picture for me?"
As she spoke, Chi Lian left the table, walked in front of the bamboo building, and began to dance gracefully.
For a moment, the dance and the music complemented each other.
The music sounds like heavenly music, and the dancing postures are also extraordinary, sometimes like a gentle breeze, sometimes like the rushing river. Invisibly, Chi Lian and Wu Xian are engaging in some kind of contest.
Mo Yan was very surprised, "I couldn't ask for more!"
He immediately called on the maids to set the table, but unfortunately the maids were all immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves, and were in a panic after waking up from the shock.
Qin Sang shook his head repeatedly and said, "I am in high spirits today, so I will show you a little trick to liven up the atmosphere."
He looked at the moon and then looked outside the bamboo forest.
This cave is in an excellent location, and one can see the entire Feixianji. At this moment, the moonlight shining on Feixianji makes it look like an immortal appearing in the wind.
"Although these flower spirits are charming, they are not a match for Feixianji. Let me invite a few fairies to come down to earth and grind ink for you, Taoist friend."
After saying that, Qin Sang stretched out a finger and pointed at the moonlit sky. Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder was heard faintly.
The thunder did not spoil the music, nor did the clouds obscure the moon.
The stars have disappeared, and only a single moon is shining here. The moonlight seems even brighter.
Dark clouds gathered and thunder and lightning struck.
Outside the bamboo forest, countless creatures were alarmed and fled into caves, thinking that a thunderstorm was coming.
Thunder was roaring and lightning was flashing. Suddenly, a thick bolt of lightning seemed to split the sky open.
‘Crack! ’
All the creatures in the nest began to tremble, and all were terrified.
The lightning and moonlight intersected, and suddenly several figures appeared in the moon. They were actually fairies with fluttering sleeves.
They came stepping on thunder, smiling and clearing the desk, some grinding with bare hands, some spreading out drawing paper...
These fairies were all transformed by thunder magic. Qin Sang did not want to expose his Qingluan bloodline, but still had to use thunder power, so he integrated the Qingluan magic and Daoting thunder magic and created several methods of his own that could be used.
This is a kind of phantom thunder technique in thunder magic, which may not be very sophisticated, but these fairies are as agile as real people, which can prove Qin Sang's powerful control ability.
"What a fairy! What magical powers!"
Mo Yan clapped his hands and praised highly.
'Clang!'
Duan Sheath stood up, summoned a three-foot-long sword, and jumped into the courtyard, "I will also dance with swords to entertain my brother and the two distinguished guests!"
"He is really a swordsman..."
Qin Sang found the three brothers more and more interesting. Even among the human race, such elegant people were rare.
Qin Sang turned his eyes and looked at Mo Yan with a smile, waiting to see what methods this monster had.
Music is played without strings, and Chi Lian and Duan Sheath dance together.
Mo Yan stood behind the desk, holding a paintbrush in his hand, but he was reluctant to take his eyes off it, and only put pen to paper when the song was over.
He sheathed the sword and quietly returned to the table to sit down.
Chi Lian walked slowly to the desk, looked at the inkstone as he painted, a look of surprise gradually revealed in his eyes.
'Shuh! '
Click the last stroke.
Mo Yan looked at his painting with a satisfied look on his face, then gently unfolded it. The painting on it was a picture of two demons dancing together.
A solemn look flashed across Qin Sang's eyes.
"This painting is a work of ours. With the protection of this painting, this trip will be safe!" Mo Yan said happily.
Chi Lian came back to his senses and sighed, "Daoyou's painting skills are indeed well-deserved. It's best not to have the opportunity to use such a superb painting forever."
The brothers Wuxian and Duanqiao already knew their eldest brother's abilities, and couldn't help but show their approval.
Qin Sang also nodded slightly, staring at the painting intently. He was not concerned about the content of the painting, but the brushwork and charm of the painting.
He felt like he was looking at a talisman.
This is a painting, which can also be called a talisman or an instrument. When Mo Yan was painting, he injected his own magical powers into the painting. Whenever he encounters danger in the future, he can use this painting to ward off the enemy, and its power will surely be considerable.
Just looking at this painting alone, one has already entered the level of using painting to gain enlightenment. It is unexpected to see such superb painting skills in a demon cultivator.
It seems that the three flying fairies are not just pretentious.
The fairy removed the desk and returned to heaven. The clouds cleared and the thunder dissipated. Mo Yan ordered Hua Ling to clear the banquet and serve spiritual tea.
After the banquet, let’s talk about business.
"Since everyone is here, how about we set off in three days and enter the Liandu Lake?" Mo Yan suggested.
Wuxian and Duanqiao naturally had no objection. Chilian asked, "Fellow Daoist, can you tell us what treasure you are going to get?"
"A clam pearl," said Mo Yan.
"Clam pearls?"
Chi Lian showed a puzzled expression.
Qin Sang asked curiously, "Are you going to hunt a clam monster?"
The difficulty of simply taking treasure and hunting a demon cultivator is incomparable, and the price of hiring them is definitely different.
"No! Although this is a clam pearl, it was not born by the clam monster. It is a treasure that was born and raised by nature..."
Mo Yan shook his head, a little embarrassed, "It's hard to explain in words, you will understand when you two Taoist friends see it."
Qin Sang and Chi Lian communicated secretly and found out that Chi Lian had never heard of clam pearls.
"It seems that fellow Daoist has already found out everything, but he is still so cautious and invites us here. When we come to take the treasure, will there be any competitors?" Chi Lian asked the key question.
"According to common sense, we brothers should be the only ones who know that the clam pearl is about to be born, but things in the world are unpredictable, and there is also the art of calculation in the world. I ask the two of you to protect me to prevent any accidents from happening," Mo Yan explained.
Chi Lian's pretty face darkened, "The art of divination? Could it attract the Demon Saint here?"
Mo Yan laughed when he heard this, "Fellow Daoist, you are worrying too much! We are not desperate men. If the clam pearl will attract the demon saint, how dare we think about it?"
"So, we have to stay with you all the time?" Qin Sang interrupted.
"No! You and my third brother should act together and become the personal guard of a demon king in the swamp..."
……
Three days later.
Qin Sang and the four monsters quietly left the bamboo forest and entered the Liandu Lake.
The Liandu Lake is boundless, with vast waves like the vast ocean.
However, mountains and islands are far more common in the swamp than in the sea, and jungles and swamps can be encountered from time to time. The only constant is that it is humid and hot here, and the deeper you go, the thicker the fog.
They went a short distance deeper and saw a vast expanse of white before their eyes.
While walking, Qin Sang paid attention to the idle conversations between the four monsters. Occasionally, their words revealed some legends and secrets of Liandu Lake, which could not be learned from the outside world.
Along the way, Qin Sang often discovered traces of demon cultivators. The situation here was indeed very complicated.
Mo Yan did not fly in a straight line, but sometimes took a detour and occasionally gave some instructions, so that Qin Sang knew where he could pass and where he should avoid.
In addition, there are many dangerous and forbidden places in Liandu Lake that make all the monsters tremble in fear, and Qin Sang remembers them all in mind.
I flew continuously for more than a month.
Mo Yan took them to a deserted island.
After some calculations, Mo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is it, second brother..."
Wuxian nodded, bowed to Qin Sang and the others, and left alone.
Qin Sang and his companions continued to fly for a while, and arrived above a swamp. Mo Yan turned around and said, "I will go there alone to visit, you find a chance to sneak in."
Before leaving, Mo Yan handed them three black jade bottles.
After Mo Yan left, Qin Sang and the others flew around the edge of the swamp for a while, and Chi Lian said softly, "Here they come."
Soon, a group of demon soldiers flew out from the gray fog deep in the swamp.
They were all strong in build, dressed in black armor, with crocodile heads and tails. They turned out to be a group of crocodile monsters.
This group of demon soldiers flew past them without them noticing.
Qin Sang and the others followed behind, each choosing a target, thinking about it in their minds, and opening the jade bottle at the same time.
'Snapped! '
A ball of ink flew out of the jade bottle.
The ink seemed like a living thing, wriggling in front of Qin Sang, then spreading out and turning into a black film that stuck to Qin Sang's body.
The next moment, Qin Sang's appearance changed drastically and turned into a crocodile monster.
The disguise was almost imperceptible.
Then, the last three crocodile monsters in the team were quietly replaced, and Qin Sang and his men mixed in, patrolling the swamp with this group of monster soldiers.
