Chapter 112 It's an eyesore

Shang Xia was no longer the slightly ostentatious family son, and he also had a clear understanding of cultivation resources and various extraordinary materials.

Twenty pieces of second-order talisman paper are worth two hundred silver dollars, which may not be much compared to the Shang family, which has a large family, but for a certain warrior, this already represents a lot of cultivation resources.

Even if Shang Quan is now the supervisor of all the family's operations in Tongyou Peak, Shang Xia himself is also the grandson of the third generation of the family, and the funding of hundreds of silver dollars is enough, once or twice, and three or four times will definitely cause criticism.

After all, even Shang Quan, the supervisor, can't really be in charge of everything, even as a patriarch, Shang Bo has to take into account the feelings of other team members.

It was precisely because Shang Xia understood this that he was unwilling to accept Shang Quan's kindness too much, and more often than not, he was still willing to rely on his own strength to fight for cultivation resources.

"No, no, twenty talisman papers is not a small number, Uncle Quan must not be like this!" Shang Xia hurriedly declined.

Shang Quan pretended to be unhappy and said: "This is not a free gift, you forgot that we had an agreement before, and the martial talismans you make will be handed over to me for sale in the future.

Shang Xia still declined: "If it is a first-order martial talisman, my nephew will naturally not be polite to Uncle Quan, but I have just completed the second-order martial talisman, and there may even be an element of luck in it.

Seeing Shang Xia like this, Shang Quan changed his tone and smiled: "Okay, but you still have to keep these twenty talisman papers."

Without waiting for Shang Xia to speak, Shang Quan said again: "Have you forgotten the green quenching mud and fine iron fist gloves you gave me before?"

Shang Xia was startled and said happily: "Sold out?"

Shang Quan smiled and said: "Good luck, the previous battle with Tongyou Peak Guard Formation was seriously damaged, and when it was repaired, a large number of extraordinary materials were used. Green quenching mud is mostly used for formation, and your box of green quenching mud is of excellent quality, and it was directly sold to Tongyou Hall for seventy silver dollars."

"Although those pairs of fine iron fists are not sharp weapons, they themselves are smelted with several extraordinary materials, and they are very powerful, I have bought these pairs of fists in the name of my family, and they are also calculated according to seventy silver dollars."

As soon as Shang Xia heard this, he pulled out two of the three golden sword talismans in the brocade bag and said, "That's still sixty silver dollars, so please ask Uncle Quan to sell these two second-order talismans to make up for the deficit."

Seeing that he insisted on doing this, Shang Quan took the golden sword talisman and said with a smile: "Okay!"

Shang Xia easily took twenty second-order talisman papers into his pocket, and then said with a smile: "Uncle Quan, I feel that Tongyou Peak has become much deserted these days."

Shang Quan smiled and said: "It is indeed much deserted, after the beast 'tide' retreated, the Tongyou Hall issued many tasks in the Kaogong Division, many warriors took the tasks and went down the mountain, and many scattered martial artists and students who did not receive the tasks also spontaneously left Tongyou Peak."

"Why?"

Shang Xia asked a little strangely: "Even if the beast 'tide' recedes, the surrounding area may not be safe, right? Is it related to the Four Spirits Mountain? Also, Deputy Mountain Chief Liu and the others are still trapped in the ruins of the Zhu family by the people of the Yueji Society, shouldn't they be rescued as soon as possible?"

Shang Quan laughed dumbly when he heard this: "You kid, where can you be rescued so easily? Do you know where the Zhu family remains are?"

"Coral forest?" Shang Xia had heard her aunt talk about it.

Shang Quan smiled and said: "It seems that you still don't know what the coral forest is. It is a natural 'labyrinth' palace!"

"'Maze' palace?" Shang Xia was a little dissatisfied.

But I heard Shanquan continue: "The coral forest not only occupies a wide area, but also has natural formation cover, it is a wonderful place, and there are also rumors that the formation there is related to the Zhu family, but it has not been confirmed. But what is certain is that once you enter the coral forest, even if you are a master of the four heavens, you cannot fly in mid-air, you can only walk on foot, and many people are 'lost' in it and never come out again."

After hearing this, Shang Xia said: "In other words, it is not possible to solve the problem there by having too many people."

Shang Quan smiled and nodded: "So, even if you enter the coral forest to receive Liu Jitang and the others, it is the matter of the four heavens of the Tongyou Hall and several high-level triple heavens, which has nothing to do with you and me."

Shang Xia said: "But when Deputy Mountain Chief Liu was looking for the remains of the Zhu family, he took a large number of people from Tongyou Peak, and there were many warriors with only one or second level cultivation."

Shang Quan smiled mockingly and said: "How can the Zhu family ruins be easy to enter? Even if there is a descendant of the Zhu family, it is the same!"

Shang Xia understood in seconds, and with a "hey" sound, he stopped continuing the topic, but asked: "What tasks have the academy promulgated? I have been on Tongyou Peak for a long time, and I have been in seclusion, practicing swordsmanship, making talismans, thinking quietly, and planning to go out for a walk."

Shang Quan explained: "Although the two realms of war are unpredictable, some resource points discovered in advance, such as minerals, herbal medicines, ancient trees, spiritual springs, earth fires, ice pools, etc., although sometimes they change locations, there are always traces to follow."

"If the value of these things is high enough, the college will also pay a price to mark them for long-term mining and utilization, and in some places, there will even be people stationed to take care of them for a long time."

"But when the beast 'tide' comes, most of these places may be affected, and now they have to be recovered, otherwise the loss of Tongyou Peak will be really too great!"

Shang Xia nodded thoughtfully.

But Shang Quan continued: "Of course it's not just these! This time the beast 'tide' suddenly attacked, relying on the early warning of the mutant swift, most of our people have withdrawn, but what about Siling Mountain?"

Shang Xia was stunned, and then Uncle Quan said: "Siling Mountain must also have many fixed resource lands, but under the beast 'tide', Siling Mountain has suffered heavy losses, and manpower must be stretched, and those four heavens must also be lacking in skills, so this is our great opportunity!"

Shang Quan smiled and nodded, and said: "In fact, most of the tasks of the foreign students who entered the two realms of war before were stationed and mined these resource points. It's just that something happened in the middle of your C room, and I didn't catch up because I came too late."

Shang Xia was about to take his leave and go to the Examination Division, but just after taking two steps, he turned around and asked: "Uncle Quan, our merchants have not discovered and opened up some resource points in the two realms of war?"

Shang Quan smiled and said: "Naturally, there is, in fact, our family's manpower has already been distributed, and these things are arranged by Uncle Ke."

"Then I......"

Shang Quan knew what he was going to say, so he shook his head and said, "You are different! You are still a student of Tongyou Academy, and this time you came to Tongyou Peak because of the experience tasks of the students. You don't have to worry about family affairs."

Shang Xia didn't understand until this time that Uncle Quan's real purpose was probably to mention these things to him.

But this also made Shang Xia feel a little strange.

He is just a sacrificial student, even if he has some talent, he is just an insignificant second-order martial artist in the huge Tongyou Peak.

Even if I stayed in Pinxin Peak and the commercial building a little longer during this time, it was in the way of the eyes of which big guys?

Shang Xia knew in his heart that if he could let the family send Uncle Quan to come specifically to mention him, the person who expressed his dissatisfaction with him must be the senior management of the academy.

Maybe it's the fourth heaven?
