Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Mr. Long showed a happy smile.
Longmen Inn was built by him and he regarded it as his home.
If the [Dragon King]'s identity as dragon master is his responsibility and mission, then his identity as the owner of the Dragon Gate Inn is his favorite.
He hopes to see the word "Dragon Gate" resound throughout the ancient martial arts world, and even... become famous all over the world!
Today, there are multiple Dragon Gates, such as the Dragon Gate in the underground world, the Dragon Gate Group, and the Dragon Gate in the ancient martial arts world.
When Xiao Chen formed the underground force, Huang Xing and the others asked him to give him a name... He thought of 'Longmen Inn' and the word 'Longmen'.
Xiao Chen likes these two words very much because he thinks the word "Dragon Gate" represents a kind of hope.
Since ancient times, there has been a legend about the carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, turning into a dragon and roaring for nine days!
So…there have been so many ‘Dragon Gates’ appearing one after another.
In addition to his liking, another important reason is... he is lazy.
Xiao Chen was too lazy to think of a name, so he thought 'Longmen' was good, so he would just use 'Longmen', since there would be no confusion anyway.
When the "Longmen" is mentioned in the underground world, it is naturally the Longmen of Longhai, one of the three gangs.
The "Dragon Gate" in the ancient martial arts world is the "Dragon Gate" on Dragon Island.
As for the Longmen Group, it’s even easier to say. Anyway… the addition of the word ‘group’ makes it appear to be commercial.
Sometimes, Xiao Chen also has an idea, which blossoms in many places and dragon gates are everywhere!
Wait for Longmen in the underground world to become a behemoth in the underground world all over the world...
Wait until Longmen in the ancient martial arts world becomes the most powerful force in the ancient martial arts world...
Wait until Longmen Group becomes a business empire as Qin Lan said...
By that time, everyone in the world will know the ‘Dragon Gate’.
"Haha, I'm looking forward to it."
Mr. Long looked at Xiao Chen with a bit of relief and expectation.
"I also believe you can do it."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, he believed it too.
"Mr. Long, you said you wanted to close the Longmen Inn and leave...are you going back to [Dragon Emperor]?"
"That's right. As I said just now, the leisure days should be over, and the responsibilities and missions that should be shouldered should also be taken up... Everything has already begun."
Elder Long said slowly.
"begin?"
Xiao Chen looked at Mr. Long, what do you mean by this?
"No more words, come on, have a drink."
Elder Long noticed Xiao Chen's gaze, smiled and said.
"..."
Xiao Chen wanted to scold her, but let's just say, these old guys are still very annoying after being here for a while.
Either don't say it, or don't say half of it... It's just like reading a novel and suddenly stopped halfway through it. It's so frustrating!
"Mr. Long, is the inn... really closed like this?"
Big Fat and the others are reluctant to leave. They all grew up here. This place... is no longer just an inn, but their home.
"Haha, it's just closed, it won't be sold."
Mr. Long smiled.
"Don't you have the keys? When you have time, you can come back to stay for a few days, or clean up... Maybe one day, I will come back again, and by then, Longmen Inn will be open for business again."
Hearing this, Big Fatty and the others felt better and kept nodding.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Mr. Long picked up the wine glass.
"I feel reassured about you all, you are all good children, but I still have to tell you, don't do what you shouldn't do, understand? Otherwise, [Dragon Emperor] will not let you go, and neither will I..."
Let you go."
"Please don't worry, Mr. Long!"
The fat men nodded heavily.
"Come, have a drink."
Mr. Long smiled, raised his head, and drank the wine in one gulp, dispelling the trace of reluctance in his heart.
After finishing the meal, Xiao Chen chatted with Mr. Long for a while before preparing to leave.
He also made an appointment with Bai Ye and would send medicinal materials there.
"Here, these are tea leaves."
Mr. Long took a box and handed it to Xiao Chen.
"Okay, Mr. Long, I'll leave first. If you need anything, please call me at any time."
Xiao Chen took it and said to Mr. Long.
"good."
Mr. Long nodded.
"Go ahead."
After Xiao Chen left, Mr. Long made another pot of tea and sipped it slowly.
Suddenly, he smiled: "I am really old, and I have become sentimental... The Dragon King is not going out, but in troubled times, how can I escape from the world? It's time for him to appear next!"
…
On his way back, Xiao Chen called Bai Ye and asked him to go to Xiao's Manor now.
Thinking of what Mr. Long said, he had some guesses in his mind, was it the troubled times?
Old fortune teller, why are you running around?
Mr. Long, why did you close the Longmen Inn?
What are the responsibilities and missions he mentioned?
Everything... he will know when he is born.
Not to mention the old fortune teller, to put it bluntly, it was because he was too weak!
"The Xiantian realm...isn't easy."
Xiao Chen's eyes fell on the co-pilot. Although the tea given by Mr. Long contained spiritual energy, it was not very helpful to him.
After a while, he shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and just finished the things in front of him.
In about half an hour, he returned to Xiao's Manor, and Bai Ye also arrived.
Instead of driving a sports car, Baiye drove a pickup truck.
There are a lot of things packed in the back of the pickup truck.
"Brother Chen, these are all you need... My grandfather, my father, including the connections that the Bai family can use, have all been used by you. If you don't have them, you just can't find them."
Bai Ye said to Xiao Chen.
"Haha, thank you for your hard work."
Xiao Chen smiled, some things were really hard to find and had even disappeared from this world.
After all, Emperor Yan has been away from us for too long.
After the things were moved from the pickup truck, Bai Ye gave Xiao Chen another list.
"It's all here. If not, I told you this morning."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, took the list, and looked at it briefly. It was actually pretty good, and he found about 80% of it.
"Brother Chen, why do you need these medicinal materials? My grandfather said... you don't even need so many precious medicinal materials to make Shiquan Dabu Pills."
Bai Ye is curious.
"Haha, what I want to do is more replenishing than the Shiquan Dabu Pill."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Brother Chen, you don't plan to make elixirs, do you?"
Bai Ye looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Alchemy?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"I would like to, but I don't know how."
"All right."
Bai Ye nodded.
"Anyway, you can figure out the rest yourself."
"Um."
Xiao Chen looked at the medicinal materials in front of him and felt a little moved.
Bai Ye's words reminded him.
There is alchemy in "The Five Volumes of Shennong", but it seems very troublesome, so he hasn't studied it yet.
In addition to medicinal baths, is it possible to make elixirs?
For example, the Xiao family's Tianyuan Pill and the Dragon Palace's Xiantian Huayuan Pill are both elixirs.
In the ancient martial arts world, there are still such elixirs, but not many.
The best elixirs are even rarer.
As for why this is the case, it's because... the inheritance of alchemy has almost been discontinued.
In the entire ancient martial arts world, there seem to be only one or two alchemy forces.
It can be said that there are fewer people who know alchemy than people who know formations.
In addition to being able to make elixirs, you also need to have elixir recipes, which is even more precious.
Under such circumstances, there were very few elixirs in the ancient martial arts world.
As a result, many people in the ancient martial arts world now carry Nanyun Baiyao with them when they go out... This fact is quite consistent with the secular world.
If you don't use it if you can't help it, then it's useless.
However, alchemy is not a simple matter, nor can it be learned in one day, otherwise the inheritance would not be nearly cut off.
Alchemy... is very demanding in all aspects, and not everyone can practice it.
Therefore, Xiao Chen was moved and did not want to study it immediately. He would wait until he had time.
If you want to improve your strength, medicinal bath is enough.
Coupled with the spirit gathering formation, qi entrainment formation, etc., he is sure that everyone's strength will be greatly improved in a short period of time.
Like Su Qing... She has already used up her strength, so she doesn't need to exert any effort.
Other women...it is not difficult to practice dual cultivation, take medicinal baths, drink tea, and then absorb the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and at the same time draw the energy to cleanse the body, strengthen talents, and transform energy.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen felt a little envious. Damn, they felt so relaxed!
In order to become stronger, he even rode a dragon, which almost made him wet his pants...
"Who makes me not a woman and can't meet a man as good as me? Alas...I can't envy you."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
"Brother Chen, what are you muttering about?"
Bai Ye didn't hear it clearly.
"It's okay, I said I'm very good."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"..."
I am speechless in the white night, can I die without being narcissistic?
After unloading the medicinal materials from the pickup truck, Xiao Chen took Bai Ye to find Zhuge Qingxi.
It took a long time before the two of them found Zhuge Qingxi in a corner.
Zhuge Qingxi was holding a compass in his hand and was talking about something.
Behind him, Sun Wugong and others were there, helping Zhuge Qingxi.
"Haha, Brother Chen, why do I feel like Xixi is like a little goddess?"
Bai Ye looked at Zhuge Qingxi's posture and said with a smile.
"It's a bit like looking at Feng Shui."
Xiao Chen nodded and stepped forward.
"Brother Chen."
Zhuge Qingxi and the others saw Xiao Chen and Bai Ye coming and said hello.
"how's it going?"
Xiao Chen wiped the sweat from Zhuge Qingxi's face.
"Don't be too tired, rest and take your time."
"Not tired."
Zhuge Qingxi shook his head.
"Almost one-third of the way done, more jade is needed..."
"Have you used so much?"
Xiao Chen was surprised, this formation... was really a costly job.
"Well, if it's not available, you can use stones instead, but the effect won't be as good."
Zhuge Qingxi replied.
"I'll continue to ask people to search for it. If it doesn't work, I'll go directly to the jade mine to dig...you can just use it."
Xiao Chen said to Zhuge Qingxi.
"good."
Zhuge Qingxi nodded.
"Tomorrow night, the spirit gathering formation should be completed... For the mountain protection formation, jade is not needed, other materials can be used."
"Why does the Spirit Gathering Formation have to use jade?"
Bai Ye was curious and asked if he didn't understand.
"Because jade is psychic, the effect is better."
Zhuge Qingxi explained.
"oh oh."
Bai Ye nodded.
"Then I'll think of a way to see if I can get it."
