Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 460 A layabout seeks a petition, punishing evil and encountering an old acquaintance.
All of Da Hua's previous abilities paled in comparison to her resurrection ability.
As for the high cost? That's true. Not only will it require using all of the five attributes of the Great Flower, but it will also put the Great Flower into a dormant state for a year.
Fortunately, these two are not major problems.
Reaching zero in all five attributes will indeed result in death, but the Bloodline Effect 1 compensates for this.
If Chu Danqing is successfully resurrected, then his basic skill, Summoning, will be able to share 10% of his attributes with Da Hua.
Then the big flower can't die, which is why there's a dormant period.
Don't worry about the dormant period either, as the bloodline effects also have a way to reduce the dormant period.
As for the inherited skill, Five Qi Three Flowers Technique, Chu Danqing didn't have too many ideas. The main consumer of the Five Qi Lotus Seeds was probably only Yang Qianyuan.
Others will generally not lose attributes.
However, if the level of the Five Qi Convergence skill is increased, the effect of the Five Qi Lotus Seed should also be improved.
"Luckily, your attributes reached the 70-point limit of Tier 2, which saved me a lot of trouble," Chu Danqing muttered to himself, looking at the large flower in his Purple Mansion.
The key to improving Big Flower and the others after they returned to the park was their bloodline.
After all, the bloodline effect is linked to the talent Reincarnation Nirvana that can revive him.
Chu Danqing may not necessarily use resurrection, but it's definitely a trump card he needs, otherwise what if he really dies?
As a traditional summoner, he naturally understands that his greatest weakness is himself.
Whether it's Da Bao or Guo Ming, they can be resurrected as long as Chu Danqing is alive, even if they die.
Only if Chu Danqing dies, then all will truly be over.
dong dong dong~
Chu Danqing was conducting a further examination of Da Hua when there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Chu Danqing asked, and told Da Bao to open the door.
Upon opening the door, I saw several idle men.
They were about to say something, but when they saw Da Bao, they all swallowed their words.
"What's wrong?" Chu Danqing didn't hear the voice, so she came over to see what was going on.
"Well, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and every household needs to fill out a petition for the ritual and buy lanterns," the leader of the idlers said somewhat haltingly.
They had heard from the brokerage that the person renting the house was a wealthy young man.
However, the brokerage firm didn't tell them that the young master was accompanied by such a burly and fierce person.
"Alright, bring it over so I can take a look." Chu Danqing didn't make things difficult for the other party over such trivial matters.
He casually made a mark on the register, took out some silver but didn't give it to the other person, and asked, "What kinds of lanterns are there?"
After he finished speaking, the leader of the idlers forced a smile and said, "We haven't bought anything yet."
"We'll buy it together once we've collected all the money, yes, that's it."
Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing casually stuffed the money back into his pocket.
"You weren't planning to buy it, were you?" Chu Danqing had intended to say that when in Rome, do as the Romans do, and there was no need to make a scene.
But judging from these bastards and their attitude, they'll take the money and then leave without any follow-up.
As for not paying? That's simple. These idlers will go door-to-door making trouble for those who haven't paid over the next few days.
Doing this is simply disgusting.
After all, no one wants to encounter such bad luck during a festive holiday.
Moreover, the targets chosen by this group were also conditional.
They wouldn't choose local wealthy families, wouldn't dare go to official families, and wouldn't go to wealthy merchants either.
They either chose lone outsiders like Chu Danqing, or small-to-medium-sized merchants and shops.
Most of these people would choose to pay money to avoid disaster.
"If you had bought something of slightly lower quality, I would have turned a blind eye," Chu Danqing sighed.
"You've really messed with me."
As Chu Danqing spoke, she gave Da Bao a look.
Da Bao immediately understood and took down all the idlers.
Chu Danqing then took out a rope, and Da Bao tied them up one by one before hanging them on the wall.
This behavior naturally attracted a lot of onlookers, who pointed and whispered, which angered the idlers, who then started cursing.
Seeing this, Chu Danqing and Da Bao sealed their mouths shut.
"I'll hang you up for an hour. If you dare to do it again, don't blame me for being ruthless," Chu Danqing said.
As for the other party hating me? That doesn't matter. If they have the guts, they can come and get revenge.
This time, considering that the other party did not commit any major evil, a minor punishment would suffice as a warning, and there was no need to kill them.
After he finished speaking, he heard a familiar voice.
"Young Master Chu, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to be back in Xuyang Town," Xu Jingnian said with a hint of excitement.
Many things happened that year, which made Xu Jingnian's mind much more resilient.
He and Bai Zhenniang have overcome many difficulties together and have remained a devoted couple ever since.
As for how these difficulties came about, that's another story; in any case, his mind is indeed resilient.
"So it's Manager Xu, long time no see," Chu Danqing replied, then politely added, "Would you like to come in and have a seat?"
"Then I'll gladly accept your invitation," Xu Jingnian readily agreed. In his view, Chu Danqing had helped them a lot, and now that he had been invited, he should definitely catch up with her.
Chu Danqing just felt an urge to slap herself.
Why be so polite?
He then led Xu Jingnian into the courtyard. Fortunately, he had prepared everything he needed, including tea and snacks.
After sitting down, Chu Danqing started chatting with the other person.
I now have a general idea of what Xu Jingnian has been through over the past year.
It must be said that Bai Zhenniang had a clear goal: to specifically target Xu Jingnian.
Of course, repaying kindness isn't entirely without effect; at least Xu Jingnian is now quite wealthy.
Life is much better than before.
This is all thanks to Bai Zhenniang's ability to use divination techniques to predict the future; it would be difficult for her not to become wealthy.
As for Xu Jingnian asking Chu Danqing what he had been doing all year, Chu Danqing could only make up an excuse and say that he had gone back to his hometown.
You can't exactly say you spent a day in the immortal realm.
“Those idlers had come to Baorentang to ask for money once before,” Xu Jingnian said with resentment. “When I refused, they started making things difficult for me behind my back.”
"It prevented me from renting lanterns and hiring drummers."
“If anyone dares to sell to me or is invited by me, these idlers will first go to their homes and make a scene, forcing them to take it back.”
"Then they came to my Baorentang to cause trouble, and business became much quieter."
"We have to thank Young Master Chu for helping us get revenge." As he spoke, Xu Jingnian finally vented his anger.
"They were the ones who bumped into me," Chu Danqing replied, then said, "Manager Xu, I heard you were seriously ill before?"
"I didn't expect you to know about this, Young Master Chu?" Xu Jingnian was also surprised, but then he thought that everyone in the neighborhood knew about it, so it was hard to say who had told him.
Then he said with a big smile, "It's good luck to meet Canglong, but I'm unlucky, that's why I was unconscious for three days."
"Speaking of this Canglong..."
Chu Danqing felt that Xu Jingnian had been completely fooled. What Canglong? He was clearly Bai Zhenniang's true form.
Xu Jingnian was truly terrified, which is why Bai Zhenniang later went to Tianxin Cave to steal the Rejuvenating Herb.
As for Canglong, it was just a lie made up by Bai Zhenniang.
This is nothing more than spreading rumors and misleading the public.
"I see. Manager Xu is truly blessed, with a virtuous wife managing the household and Canglong protecting his business." Chu Danqing didn't intend to tell the truth.
The other party's words were still in his mind. Even if he said them out loud, Xu Jingnian would be easily fooled by Bai Zhenniang's few words and lose his bearings.
"Haha, I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it." Xu Jingnian said this, but he couldn't suppress his laughter.
The two chatted for a bit longer, and then Xu Jingnian, seeing that it was getting late, returned to Baorentang.
As Chu Danqing left, he put the idlers down and gave them a second warning: if they did it again, he would chop off their hands and feet.
On the other side, Xu Jingnian was about to tell Bai Zhenniang about seeing Chu Danqing when he returned home, but before he could even open his mouth, he was scolded by Bai Zhenniang.
“My husband, we are in a foreign land and unfamiliar with its customs. If a vagrant comes to our door asking for money, you might as well give it to him. It’s not worth getting angry with such a petty person who only cares about small gains.”
"Now we've wasted money and gotten nowhere; we've lost all face in public," Bai Zhenniang said.
Upon hearing Bai Zhenniang's words, Xu Jingnian initially wanted to refute them, but then he thought that Chu Danqing was all alone and could naturally teach him a lesson at will.
But he ultimately wants to do business locally, and it wouldn't be a good thing to offend him too much.
Therefore, he quickly said, "What you say is very true, Madam. I was too naive."
Hearing that Xu Jingnian had admitted his mistake, Bai Zhenniang's expression softened, and she said, "I'm not lecturing my husband, I just feel that it's not worth it for him to lose face for such a small gain."
"Well then, my father passed down several priceless treasures. If you put them out there, they will be dazzling and can be called unparalleled in the world."
"Tomorrow, on the Mid-Autumn Festival, we'll display the treasures outside for a competition, and I guarantee you'll be beaming with pride, my husband."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jingnian's face lit up with joy: "Really?!"
“Of course it’s true.” With that, Bai Zhenniang told Bi Qing’er to get the key to open the dowry chest.
But Bi Qing'er knew perfectly well that it was just an empty box; the treasure hadn't been 'taken' yet.
Therefore, they had no choice but to lie and say that they couldn't find the key.
Bai Zhenniang scolded them under some pretext, then told them to find it carefully before showing it to Xu Jingnian.
After sending Xu Jingnian away, Bai Zhenniang summoned Bi Qing'er late at night.
Bi Qing'er then asked, "Madam, where can we find these treasures?"
Bai Zhenniang said, "I have already calculated that there are three treasures in the Chai family's storeroom in the prefectural city."
"They are a scroll of the Juntian Music Picture, an incense burner with the Eight Trigrams and the Time, and a white jade bottle."
"You can ride the cloud there at midnight. Just take these three items and don't linger."
Having received Bai Zhenniang's instructions, Bi Qing'er immediately obeyed and rode away on a cloud.
In Bai Zhenniang's mind, nothing would happen as long as it was tomorrow.
Once Xu Jingnian has regained face, it's not too late to send it back overnight; she won't keep it for herself.
Xuyang Town is just a small place in Jinjiang Prefecture, and it shouldn't attract the attention of the Chai family.
