Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 62 Disaster
And so another month passed.

After the three families came to visit, Kang Dabao couldn't help himself and wrote a letter to He Dezong.

In addition to some irrelevant greetings, the letter also mentioned the desire to join the caravan.

Although the Chongming Sect is not short of resources for practice nowadays, it has almost no income.

Kang Dabao was getting anxious about the fact that he was just living off his savings, so he wanted to start a long-term business.

He Dezong was quite enthusiastic, and in his reply he said frankly that he could let Chongmingzong select a few people first, and place them in some safer caravans to gradually familiarize themselves with the situation.

After they are able to take charge on their own, they will be pulled out and a caravan will be reorganized. The pack animals and trade routes will be provided, and then the management will be handed over to Chongmingzong's family.

After this, the He family will not interfere with Chongmingzong's management of the caravan. They will only take a 10% commission in the first ten years, and after ten years, it will be completely handed over to Chongmingzong.

Kang Dabao was somewhat delighted after reading He Dezong's reply, thinking to himself that the conditions were quite generous, and it seemed that all the drinking he had done during those days was not in vain!

However, the Chongming clan had few members and could not find suitable personnel for the time being. Jiang Qing was eager to try after hearing the news, but Kang Dabao would never give him a chance.

After some further consideration, they finally decided that the head of the Lu family would lead the team, and they happily selected a cultivator from each of the other three families.

Kang Dabao believed that he could still control his position as the head of the Lu family and was not afraid of being usurped by others. He was just waiting for the time when the Chongming Sect could free up reliable personnel so that he could pick the peaches directly.

On the other hand, even though Kang Dabao had already given as much credit as possible for destroying three bandits to the other two.

However, during the month when Chongming Sect had been practicing in seclusion, this matter still caused some discussion in the practice circle of Pingrong County. The name of Chongming Sect finally floated into everyone's ears again.

This was a major foundation-building sect back then. Not to mention in Pingrong County, even in the entire Yunjiao Province, Chongming Sect had a bit of a reputation thanks to the reputation that Patriarch Zhang had earned in the great battle a hundred years ago.

It’s just that the descendants were not virtuous, and now the country is in a state of decline.

But no one would have thought that a leader in the middle stage of Qi training, leading two smaller families with even lower status, could actually wipe out the three bandit sects of Guima Xiao, Huodao Village and Jiashan Bandits.

Even in the remote Pingrong County, this could be considered a good topic of conversation.

So after many years, there appeared outside the Chongming Sect again some independent cultivators who claimed to be loyal to the sect.

This time Kang Dabao did not reject it outright.

Unlike the past, Jiang Qing and Yuan Jin are now able to shoulder some responsibilities, and Pei Yi has also returned to the sect.

Han Yundao, Duan Anle, and Pei Que have all entered the Tao and will grow up in a few years. Jin Shilun and Kang Rongquan are both promising talents. Well, there is also Mo'er who can be a bonus.

The current Chongming Sect has shown signs of revival, and it is no longer afraid of a few low-level cultivators causing any negative impact on the sect.

As the business expands, manpower will become increasingly scarce.

However, it is better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality. We have to select first, and it would be best if we can pick out some useful talents.

There were only three independent cultivators who came to join the army this time, and they were all in the early stages of Qi training.

The first one was an acquaintance, the same wandering cultivator who had led the way to the Jiashan bandits’ lair last time.

This person's surname is Du, and he looks to be in his early forties. I don't know what he did with the dozens of spiritual stones Kang Dabao gave him last time.

At this moment, he was so poor that he didn't even have a robe on his body, his silk clothes were almost torn into strips, and his face was full of misery. Master Kang didn't need to look at him, he could smell the shabby air on him, and he knew that his life was not easy.

The casual cultivator named Du was originally an ordinary mortal who was born into a wealthy family. He got a book of martial arts by chance. His aptitude was not good, and it took him 10 to 20 years to enter the Tao. He has been practicing for nearly 40 years, but is still at the second level of Qi training.

The reason why he was somewhat famous in the spiritual world of Xuping County was that he had twelve wives and concubines and had more than forty children.

It was not surprising that all of them were without spiritual roots. There was not even a single son among these children, all were daughters. A fellow who liked to talk and joke gave him the title of "Xuping's Chief Father-in-law".

However, his title was not useful to Kang Dabao. Seeing his current predicament, Kang Dabao had no interest in even speaking.

Even if these casual cultivators who have no background at all sell themselves out, they may not be able to collect enough spirit stones for a low-grade magic weapon.

Kang Dabao thought so in his heart, but he still said politely: "What brings you here, Brother Du?"

The cultivator surnamed Du had no place to sit in the hall of Chongming Sect. He bowed and saluted before saying, "Because of the previous incident, I have lost my reputation in Xuping County and have nowhere to stay. I beg Master Kang to take me in."

"Hehe." Kang Dabao chuckled. This money is included in the fifty spirit stones you earned.

It's a matter of money and goods being paid in full. If you act as a guide for people from other counties, it will definitely make local forces unhappy. Everyone is aware of the consequences in advance, so no one can be blamed.

Why don’t you take a look? They were also guides, so why didn’t the Tang Gu and Kuai families suffer any retaliation?
Kang Dabao was not interested in the story. Since he had paid the money he should pay, he would not bother with the trouble that he shouldn't bother with.

"I have nothing now, only a guide to refining weapons. I am willing to offer it as a token of my sincerity." Seeing that Kang Dabao had no intention of moving, the cultivator named Du could only smile bitterly, hunched over and presented a worn-out guide to refining weapons.

Kang Dabao nodded and accepted it. No matter whether Chongmingzong would accept him or not, he could use this thing for himself. This was a manifestation of his sincerity in serving others.

After a few more casual words, he sent the cultivator named Du back to listen.

The second person who came in was a middle-aged female cultivator in light clothing. She was not very good-looking and it was obvious that she had practiced some inferior charm techniques.

Kang Dabao only used a few words to test him and he found out that this person wanted to sneak in and stir up trouble because the current leaders of Chongming Sect were all middle-aged and elite, and there was not a single female cultivator in the entire sect.

Most of these low-level flatterers who mingle among the lower class of monks have no intention of practicing well, and are only accustomed to doing these dirty things!
But she had miscalculated. Not to mention the deep relationship between her fellow apprentices, her shabby tricks might not work.

Even the head of Kangda is not a person who can be indifferent to strangers and has very high requirements!
Especially since this female cultivator had an extremely strong smell of a whore, it was disgusting even from a distance, so there was no interest in getting close to her.

After finding out this, Kang Dabao didn't even give the person a good look and wanted to drive him away.

When the female cultivator saw Kang Dabao's behavior, she squeezed back her tears, imitated Xi Shi's disgusting gesture of holding her heart, and asked to offer herself to him.

This frightened Master Kang so much that he almost asked Jiang Qing to draw out his flying sword and knock him out.

The third person to come in was an elderly monk with a scholarly look. His blue robes had begun to turn white, and his wrinkled face revealed the word "story".

When the old monk entered the room and saw Kang Dabao sitting in the hall, he took a look with his cloudy eyes and said, "Master Kang, do you know that your restoration of the Ming Sect is already a disaster?"
