"Master Lin, I didn't expect you to come here this time. I will inform the chief steward immediately."
The shopkeeper took two steps forward and greeted in a low voice.
He was obviously a middle-aged scholar with an elegant temperament, but he bowed his hands and made a flattering expression.
No wonder he is like this. Ever since Lin Mo punched Duan Qianfang, the head of Bluetooth Company to death, he has left an image of a powerful and brutal figure.
Especially for those of them who had personally participated in the encirclement and suppression campaign, they were completely untouchable.
After saying that, he bowed and led the way, leading Lin Mo to the private room.
"Help me prepare some more goods and record them in the accounts." Lin Mo nodded, followed behind, and said softly.
After saying that, he took out a piece of note paper from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper beside him.
"Okay, you sit down and rest first. I'll be back when I'm gone." The shopkeeper took the note and laughed softly.
After taking Lin Mo into the private room, two maids in their early twenties were sent into the room to pour tea and water, and then quickly walked into the back hall.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Not long after, a familiar voice suddenly appeared.
Immediately afterwards, a figure walked out of the back hall and sat opposite Lin Mo.
Xiao Zhengyang is now dressed in smart clothes, his hair is disheveled, his face is dull, and he smells of blood.
This guy seems to have just had a fight with someone, and his breath fluctuates a bit, as if he is injured?
"It didn't take long." Lin Mo thought thoughtfully.
"If you had come later, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to see me." Xiao Zhengyang twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed.
As he spoke, he waved his hands, and the two maids on the side bowed slightly and retreated voluntarily.
"Oh? What happened? If you need help, don't be polite. Of course, you have to accept my favor." Lin Mo became interested and joked.
The relationship between the two of them is now in the honeymoon period, so Lin Mo will not refuse to do anything he can during the period.
"If it doesn't work, I will ask you to take action." Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhengyang was not modest this time, but said solemnly.
"Somehow during this period, there is a force secretly causing trouble. A few days ago, a group of bandits appeared outside the city, and they were wiped out by Zhou Shengjun. Yesterday, a group of strongmen came and acted completely regardless of the rules.
But this is just a group of little-known gangsters, but among them there are masters who are comparable to those in the highest ranks of Liming and the Six Fu Realm."
He explained with a sigh.
"." Lin Mo understood clearly that Li Minggao Duan Wufu was already a well-known figure at the county level, and even in a huge city like Huaiping, although it is not so rare, it is not as popular as a dog, at least
You can also belong to the middle class, so there are few people who can't think of going out into the wild.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. At least so far, all the people who come out are clowns who can't get on the stage." Xiao Zhengyang smiled.
"You sent a message yesterday, saying that you wanted to sell a batch of elixirs. How come, the Xuemo Dan was developed?" he asked.
He knew that Lin Mo had been studying the Xuemo Dan formula with great concentration, because the recent raw materials and medicinal materials were all provided by Blue Split Whale Trading Company.
"I can't say that the development is completely successful, but it is true that some small gains have been made." A smile appeared on Lin Mo's face.
There is nothing more fulfilling than delving into something and then suddenly becoming enlightened after being confused for a long time.
"Has it really been researched?" Xiao Zhengyang asked curiously.
Lin Mo nodded, took out a white wooden box from the empty stone ring, placed it on the table, and gently opened the lid of the box.
There are more than a dozen jade bottles placed inside, with their mouths sealed with white oak corks.
He took out a jade bottle, gently pulled out the stopper, poured out a round green pill, and handed it to Xiao Zhengyang.
"I call it Xiao Xue Mo Dan. It has been developed through special techniques and has been tested in terms of effectiveness. It can be worth two-thirds of the genuine Xue Mo Dan, and the cooling time is the same."
As soon as the elixir appeared in the room, a scent of wine came out.
This is why Lin Mo developed a method to reduce the cooling time. In the process of refining the elixir, he added a kind of fat meat called blood pig and brewed wine to suppress the negative effects of quenching the blood orchid.
After Xiao Zhengyang heard this, he took the elixir and was startled, his color changed slightly.
It's okay if the potency is reduced by one-third, as long as the cooling time is not long. Calculated this way, it is at least better than Tongxue Powder. As long as it sinks slightly in the market and sells cheaper, it may even sell better.
He thought for a moment and looked at Lin Mo, who had a plain face, "Put a bottle here with me. After a special person tests the medicine, if it is as you said, it can be said to be a real big deal."
"It doesn't matter, as long as the money from the sale can be converted into Yuan Stone." Lin Mo didn't care too much about these necessary procedures. What he really cared about was improving himself.
"Okay, no problem. I have already transferred the goods to Yuzhou. After a while, when the river transportation becomes clear, another batch of Yuan Stone will come." Xiao Zhengyang promised, calling a servant to take the elixir for testing.
"By the way, I have news that you should be very interested in, about the Xu family in Ningyang."
When Lin Mo heard this, he became interested. He put down the tea cup in his hand and listened.
"The forces targeting the Xu family have emerged, and even the mastermind behind the scenes has some clues." Xiao Zhengyang said with a smile.
"Oh? Which force? How is the force?" Lin Mo looked serious.
"On the surface, they are a group of bandits who are now quite famous. The Fengxing Thirteen Bandits have now let out word that they will visit the Xu family and have a good talk."
"Interesting, I know this group of people used to live in Guanshan Gorge in Linyu County. Are they so arrogant?" Lin Mo said with a smile.
"The opponent did stay in Guanshan Gorge before, but now he has joined several experts, and his power has expanded greatly. He has already made a name for himself even in the county." Xiao Zhengyang said simply.
"Master? How high is it?" Lin Mo became a little interested.
"There is a grandmaster." Xiao Zhengyang was silent and softly narrated, "And there is someone else behind him. According to my intelligence analysis, it is most likely the He family from Changhe City."
The He family and the Chang family are both millennium-old families. There are great masters in the family, and they have a great reputation throughout Huaizhou.
"Interesting." There was no obvious fluctuation on Lin Mo's face, "Then please continue to help me pay attention to the information there, um, including the He family."
Just before he tried it out, the ordinary half-step grandmaster's combat power was already too weak for him now, and it was completely ineffective in testing his strength. A few grandmasters would suit his needs.
As for the He family, even though there is a great master in charge, they still can't run away if they can't defeat them?
If it doesn't work, just run away with Xu Chengyuan and a few important people.
Waiting until you are stronger and then killing him back is a trivial matter.
It is indeed a bit strange to say that if it were placed on Lin Mo, who had just arrived in this world, he would be uneasy and unable to control himself when he heard that he had offended a master of destiny.
Unexpectedly, not long after that, even the Grand Master no longer paid attention to it.
"You are really brave." Xiao Zhengyang didn't know what to say. He just paid attention to Fengxing Pirates, including what the heck is He?
Is it possible that he still has thoughts about the He family?
"There is no such thing as being brave and cowardly. When something happens, you can escape if you want to." Lin Mo said with a smile, "When encountering such a thing, the elders in the family said something, and I think it is quite reasonable.
If you really want to fight, then fight. If you can't fight too hard, what you need is to advance directly and scare away the onlookers for three hundred miles with this recklessness."
Xiao Zhengyang thought of the past events of Lin Mo's clan and the Lin family's rebellion that shocked almost the entire Huaizhou, as if he knew why Lin Mo took the title of Poison Overlord.
Some people are obviously strong enough, but they are hesitant and timid. Although they are strong, they are not worthy of being feared. Some people are not afraid of being strong enough, but they are cruel and ruthless. Such people are deadly.
But for Xu, I can do this step
Xiao Zhengyang couldn't help but have some admiration for Lin Mo.
Although he had investigated his experience before and roughly knew that Lin Mo had a ruthless temperament, was overbearing in his dealings, and would destroy his family and clan at every turn, but for the sake of friendship and loyalty, he always repaid his kindness.
But intelligence is intelligence, and reputation is reputation. If you don't see it with your own eyes, it will ultimately be illusory. After all, there are many smart people who know how to manage reputations and outline names. You can't disbelieve them, and you can't believe them all.
But when I personally participated in it, I realized that the words "emphasis on friendship" were indeed correct.
Ordinary people would not choose to fight against a famous grandmaster force for the sake of their close friends.
From this point of view, with the label of "loyalty", ruthlessness, and outstanding talent become even greater advantages.
Xiao Zhengyang pondered for a while, as if making a conclusion, and finally spoke:
"Don't worry, I'll send two more secret agents out to make sure we get the news as soon as possible."
He was placing a heavy bet at this time. Although he did not tell Lin Mo clearly about the consequences of adjusting the secret, he believed that the other party knew what he was doing.
Lin Mo nodded.
Afterwards, the two of them continued to drink tea and chat, and the content roughly included all the strange things that happened in Huaiping, Huaizhou, and Yuzhou recently. Finally, it was not until the pharmacist under his command tested that the medicine was effective and agreed on the price that Lin Mo left.
.
After discussion between the two, a bottle of Xiaoxuemodan was priced at fifteen thousand taels, which was cheaper than the normal purchase price of Tongxue Powder. This could be regarded as Lin Mo reciprocating the favor and giving away some benefits.
Otherwise, if you calculate it carefully and look at the market price alone, 20,000 taels of gold is quite a lot.
But even so, Lin Mo did not make less money. The tempered blood orchid, which cost less than five hundred taels of gold, was resold for fifteen thousand taels. The profit was so high that ordinary warriors would shed tears if they knew about it.
According to statistics, the average annual income is only ten thousand taels of gold.
Lin Mo shook his head, took the various medicinal materials prepared by the shopkeeper, stopped a carriage, and returned directly to his residence.
When he returned to his residence, he took the medicinal materials and went directly into the secret room.
At this time, in a corner of the room, three unlucky guys headed by Cao Yong were tied to three large wooden frames.
At this time, the three of them were still in a coma. One-fifth of their entire bodies were covered with curse marks. There was a long transparent thin tube tied around their wrists, and they were connected to bottles. Their bodies had shrunk a lot compared to the beginning.
, obviously suffered a lot.
However, in order to ensure the vitality of the three of them, he also put a lot of effort into refining some supplements and putting them into hanging bottles, like giving them intravenous drips, to extend their lives.
The reason for doing this is naturally because in the past few days, the interrogation of several people has achieved initial results.
Lin Mo checked the situation of the three of them, walked to the desk and sat down. At this time, the notepad on the desk was spread out, and the contents recorded in pinyin for several days were written:
'The method of eating meat to strengthen the body. If you want to practice this method, you must first plant a young seed in the body, and pour it with the blood of young children day and night. It must be a boy who has not lost his yang.
After a hundred days, when the young seeds have sprouted, you can stop pouring blood. After that, you can eat the flesh and blood of warriors and mountain animals to strengthen your body and accumulate vitality.
To break through the realm, one must bury one's body in the earth, with soil covering one's neck. It is best to be in a dense forest. After reaching the level, one can take the form of a wooden figure that turns into shade. It cannot be hurt by iron tools, cannot be broken by divine power, cannot be blocked by the strength of mind, and can break the warrior's body with a backhand.
Even empty blood
Secret text:
Foundation Building Potion:.’
These are the main exercises that Lin Mo tortured from the three people.
Not counting some weird cultivation methods, in terms of effects alone, if there is no exaggeration, it is much stronger than ordinary real skills and methods.
Considering its unique blood-sucking practice method, it seems to be a quick success. If all black Buddhist warriors really practice this method, it is no wonder that it is so popular.
Just looking at it, there are two words on it, "eating people". How can the speed of cultivation be compared with ordinary exercises?
And from this we can see the strangeness of the path of cultivation in a foreign land.
'But it's weird. Based on what these people said, if you just use secret texts in conjunction with foundation-building potions and perform corresponding rituals, it can make people physically strong or improve their bones. There are no side effects. It's just that it's difficult to prepare the potions.
It's rare for people to be so extravagant, but it's fine with me, but why do you think it's a trap?'
Lin Mo looked at the contents in the record book and couldn't help but secretly thought.
He now has a general understanding of the so-called new cultivation steps of Black Buddhism.
The most important thing is to use foundation-building potions, cooperate with secret texts, hold rituals to build the foundation, and then practice with the true method.
The medicine among them is equivalent to the elixir here in Chi County, and the effect is even better.
At least Lin Mo has never heard of any elixirs here in Chi County. After taking them, warriors will have immediate breakthroughs in strength, or awaken magical powers and secret techniques.
Finally, after thinking for a long time, Lin Mo made up his mind.
You can try it, but you must go through a lot of rigorous experiments beforehand to make it truly harmless before you can play it in person.
Among the experiments, naturally, I returned to my old profession and conducted a large number of real-person experiments.
Fortunately, Lin Mo now has a good relationship with Xiao Zhengyang. He heard that there is constant war in Yuzhou, and some criminals are easy to get.
After he finished reciting, he didn't waste any more time and continued to practice.
Now that I have obtained the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye, it seems to have an accelerating effect on practicing martial arts. In the past, a punch would only increase the proficiency by 1%, but now it has doubled.
Thanks to the help, Luohan Ti, which was not far from Dacheng in the first place, is about to break through recently.
In this way, the Arhat body can be condensed according to what is said above, and then is the moment when the true power of this ancient Xiaolingtai Sect's foundational art will be truly demonstrated.
Lin Mo had already made up his mind. After the breakthrough, regardless of whether he got the news or not, he would go directly to the Xu family and deal with all the popular thieves. After that, he would only wait for the examination to enter the clan, stay away from Huaiping, a place of right and wrong, and truly start the court.
