Chapter 313 Selling Information

Tao Ji frowned and looked at Chunqin with displeasure.

Chunqin ignored him and continued to follow Xuanmiao.

Xuanmiao glanced at her calmly, and Chunqin's body froze. She sat up straight after an awkward laugh and asked with a sweet smile, "Master Xuanmiao never comes to visit you for no reason. What do you want to ask?"

Xuanmiao: "What's the latest news in the world?"

"Your question is too broad," Chunqin said, "The world is so vast, there are new and interesting news every day. What do you want to ask?"

The waiter brought up the wine and food, and was about to pour wine for Xuanmiao with the pot, but was held down by Xuanmiao.

The waiter looked up at Chunqin, then lowered his eyes, let go and walked away.

Xuan Miao picked up the wine pot and poured a glass for Chun Qin, and then poured a glass for himself, but did not drink it, "You know what I want to ask."

Chunqin glanced at the wine that was pushed in front of her and suddenly smiled, "Master, what you want to ask is about the lightning that struck Yushan County in Jiangxi some time ago, right?"

Mysterious and silent.

Chunqin knew that she had guessed correctly, and her body softened as she leaned against her and said, "I have heard about this. There are many different opinions in the martial arts world. Some say that Taoist Wang of Sanqing Mountain has made further progress and has reached the realm of a grandmaster. Others say that you, Master Xuanmiao, have broken through the restrictions, have left the mortal world, and officially entered the Dao..."

Chunqin leaned on Xuanmiao's shoulder, staring at her expression. Seeing that she had no expression on her face, she suddenly smiled and said, "Some say that she is the master's junior sister, Pan Tiancai, the new recruit of Sanqing Mountain, who came later and surpassed the master and left the mortal world before him."

Xuanmiao turned the wine glass in his hand, "Pan Tiancai?"

"Yes, that's what people in the martial arts world say."

Xuanmiao asked, "What's the news about your Qianxi Tower?"

Chunqin glanced at the silver ingot on the table, tapped Xuanmiao's arm with her finger and whispered, "Master, the news about the little genius of Sanqing Mountain cannot be bought with a silver ingot."

Tao Ji couldn't help but ask, "Do we need to buy news about our Junior Sister from you? We just want to know how the outside world is spreading about our Junior Sister, and what kind of news you Qianxi Tower is selling."

Chunqin lowered her eyes, rolled her eyes, and suddenly smiled, "Last month, a strange thing happened in Anren County, Raozhou. Mr. Huang, who had always been stingy and exploited the tenants, suddenly became generous. He not only took the initiative to reduce the rent for the next year, but also reduced this year's green storage by more than half. He also set up two porridge stalls in the town. Although the porridge they cooked was so thin that you could reflect your face in it, it was indeed a good deed."

"What's even more bizarre is that not many of the tenants were grateful to Mr. Huang, but they secretly set up a longevity tablet for a female Taoist priest. That female Taoist priest was named Pan Sanzhu."

mysterious:……

Tao Ji: ...

There is no doubt that this person must be Pan Yun.

Chunqin's eyes moved around, Xuanmiao's expression was still as cold as ever, while Tao Ji had a blank face, and no one knew what he was thinking.

She was not disappointed and continued to stay close to Xuan Miao, even closer. She smiled and said, "Coincidentally, not long after, Quanzhou also had a Pan Sanzhu, who was an expert in eliminating bandits and was very popular among the local people."

"This Taoist priest Sanzhu is also accompanied by two nephews. They are your talented junior sister Pan Yun from Sanqing Mountain and two disciples with the character 'Miao' in their names, Miaozhen and Miaohe."

"We at Qianxi Tower are certain of this, but what we are not sure about is whether the Taoist Sanzhu in Anren County, who has white hair on his temples and is said to be nearly a hundred years old, is the same person as the Taoist Sanzhu in Quanzhou?"

Xuan Miao raised his eyelids to look at her and asked expressionlessly, "What do you think?"

"I thought?" Chunqin put her hand on Xuanmiao's shoulder, resting her chin on the back of her hand, and blew softly into her ear, whispering, "I thought she was."

Xuanmiao looked at her steadily.

Chunqin stared at her for a long while, and finally took the initiative to look away, turned her head away, and said with a sweet smile: "Of course, if the mage says it's not, then it can be not."

Tao Ji looked at Xuan Miao. He knew that whether buying information from Qianxi Tower or intercepting information, it would cost money.

But the problem is that they don't have much money on them now.

Maybe I should go to Quanzhou first and find Mr. Liu to earn the five thousand taels of silver.

Xuan Miao lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "How much is the exact information worth if I sell it to you, Qianxi Tower?"

Tao Ji stared, and Chunqin didn't expect that she would almost slip into Xuanmiao's arms by leaning on her shoulders.

Xuan Miao held her shoulders and pushed her to sit up straight, frowning and saying, "Sit up straight, lean on me if you are boneless, I don't mind taking the bones out of you."

Chunqin sat up straight, stirred the handkerchief in her hand, and finally said: "If the information you are selling is true, we at Qianxilou are willing to pay one thousand taels."

Xuanmiao's lips curled up slightly, "I didn't expect that my little junior sister is so valuable."

Chunqin smiled and said, "If it was just a disciple of Sanqing Mountain, the value of the information would be within ten taels; but for a genius praised by Taoist Master Wang, and one who was forcibly brought back to the mountain from Kaifeng Prefecture by Master Xuanmiao, then it would be worth a hundred taels; and for a genius who entered the Tao at the youngest age, a thousand taels of silver would be worth it. If the master is willing to give more information, not just confirmation, then a higher price is not impossible to negotiate."

Xuan Miao spun his glass and asked, "For example?"

"For example, the true identity and origin of this Taoist priest Pan; for example, her skills, and... her flaws."

Xuanmiao: "How much are her shortcomings worth?"

Chunqin: "If she is really the owner of the thunder in Yushan County, her flaws should be worth this price."

Haruko held up a finger.

Xuan Miao stared at her fingers intently. "Ten thousand taels?"

Chunqin's fingers trembled slightly, but she still nodded and said, "Yes, as long as it is real, it is worth this much money."

Xuan Miao raised his glass and gestured to her, his lips curled up slightly, "Deal."

Tao Ji opened his mouth wide, but quickly closed it. Although he seemed to be hesitant to speak, he remained silent and listened quietly to the mysterious conversation.

Chunqin asked Xuanmiao to go up to the third floor.

As soon as the door closed, the people on the first and second floors withdrew their vague gazes, scanned the entire place, looked at each other, and then quickly looked away. As soon as the door closed, Xuanmiao said, "Your business will be very good today."

Chunqin smiled and said, "This is all thanks to the magician."

Xuanmiao: "As long as you pay quickly, that's fine."

There were two other people in the room, one asking questions and the other taking notes.

Chunqin glanced at them, and the two of them immediately asked Xuanmiao and Tao Ji to sit down, "You two, Luo Lei from Yushan County..."

Xuanmiao: "It is indeed my junior sister Pan Yun who is going through the tribulation. She is now at the First Marquis level and has officially entered the Dao."

Both the person asking the question and the person taking notes had their eyes light up, and Haruko also looked excited.

There have always been rumors in the martial arts world, but no definite news has been released. Qianxi Tower spent a lot of money to find the survivors of that night, but as soon as the spies they sent out made a start, they ran away as if there were vicious dogs chasing them, without saying a word.

Survivor: ...I finally survived, but just when I relaxed a little, I heard Xuanmiao's name. Who the hell can stay here any longer?

Xuan Miao had said at the beginning that she would chase them to the ends of the earth.

Although they have been safe recently and no one has come to chase them, who knows what will happen in the future?
That mysterious tracking technique is very powerful.

Xuan Miao was famous for holding grudges. He said he wanted revenge back then, and even though it had been a year and he was still seriously injured and hadn't recovered, he was still going to take revenge.

The underworld still bears a grudge against her.

They are afraid...

They wished to erase all traces of that night and would not tell anyone else that they were participants that night. How could the spies from Qianxi Tower possibly find out the information?
At least for now they have not relaxed, so people in the underworld have made many speculations about what happened that night, but few have guessed it right.

Now, the person involved has finally come out to reveal the news himself.

The recorder wrote it down quickly.

The interrogator was about to ask when Xuanmiao suddenly said, "Do you want to know the details of what happened that night? Who was involved, who died, and who left alive."

The people from Qianxi Tower's eyes lit up, and they quickly said, "I'd like to hear the details."

Xuanmiao: "One thousand taels."

The people in Qianxi Tower looked at each other and then at Chunqin. Chunqin leaned to one side, pressed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and seemed not to participate in their decision.

The two people from Qianxi Tower laughed and said, "This price... is five hundred taels."

Xuanmiao looked at them calmly, "Didn't Chunqin tell you that I don't bargain?"

The people from Qianxi Tower froze for a moment, but finally nodded, "Okay, one thousand taels."

Xuanmiao turned to Tao Ji and said, "You go ahead and say it."

Tao Ji then narrated what happened that night in a serious and uneventful manner.

Chunqin was almost falling asleep from listening to it, and asked Xuanmiao, "Just thinking about it, I know that night was thrilling. How could he make such an interesting thing sound so boring?"

Xuanmiao's expression was cold: "What he said was the truth. How to process it into something interesting is your business."

Haruko: "Wouldn't it be boring for a mage to be with someone like this?"

Xuanmiao ignored her.

After recording what happened that night, the recorder brought the topic back to Pan Yun and asked, "What is Pan Yun's background?"

Tao Ji looked at Xuanmiao.

Xuan Miao's expression was cold, "I only sell her flaws."

"This..." The person asking the question looked at Haruko.

Chunqin twirled her handkerchief and said, "Master, this is not good. You can't even not tell me her technique, right?"

Xuanmiao: "She practices Kunyuan Gong."

Haruko stood up straight, "What's the flaw?"

Xuan Miao raised her eyes and said, "She is afraid of heights."

"What?" Chunqin was a little confused.

Xuanmiao: "Her weakness is her fear of heights."

Chunqin: "...Isn't it said that she is an outstanding martial artist?"

Xuanmiao: "Who says that people with outstanding Qinggong skills can't be afraid of heights?"

Chunqin: "But... she has already entered the Dao. I heard that the masters of the First Marquis can fly with the help of flying objects. Their skills are far superior to Qinggong. She is afraid of heights..."

"So this is her weakness." Xuan Miao looked at her, "Is that right?"

That’s true, but Chunqin felt like she had been cheated.

If Pan Jun is afraid of heights, I'm afraid she won't be able to hide it, right?

She is the first marquis, and she will definitely learn to fly after going to Longhu Mountain Academy. This kind of thing cannot be concealed at all. Qianxi Tower can find out by just bribing a few students to observe carefully...
