"You're welcome, Master Zuo. Although our sect has some power in the Three Lakes area of Beidi, when we reach the Tongyang Mountains, we still need Master Zuo to take care of us." The man in green shirt took the token and smiled slightly.
, but the muscles on his face were stiff and his smile looked more like a twitch.
"Haha, fellow Taoist Ye is joking. Since our Jubao Building is open to welcome guests, if fellow Taoist ask for anything, I will naturally do my best to help. But from what Fellow Taoist said just now, it seems that I have met you before?" Zuo Gongquan didn't take it seriously and asked.
One sentence.
"This is my first time coming here, but a friend of mine surnamed Wu went to the Tongyang Mountains five years ago to look for some exotic herbs, and I once got acquainted with Master Zuo." The man in Tsing Yi had a stern look on his face.
Said falsely.
Zuo Gongquan was startled when he heard this. He had been walking around the Tongyang Mountains all year round and had seen so many monks that he couldn't remember which monk named Wu for a moment.
"It seems that the noble Master Zuo has forgotten things a lot. My friend once formed a hunting group with Master Zuo. He was accompanied by a fellow named Fan, who is said to be a master of alchemy." Seeing this, the man in green clothes spoke again.
reminded.
"It turns out that it happened at that time. I have been busy dealing with the affairs of the sect recently, and my mind is a little confused. Don't blame me, fellow Daoist Ye." Zuo Gongquan said with a slight flash in the depths of his eyes, without any strange color at all.
The man in Tsing Yi smiled and said nothing.
"Then I wonder what kind of help you need from me when Fellow Daoist Ye comes here this time?" Zuo Gongquan asked again.
"I have recently reached a critical point in my cultivation. I want to buy some high-grade Chi Yuan Dan. Just ten of them will do." The man in green said calmly.
"Red Yuan Dan! It is a top-grade elixir in the magic way. It is extremely rare to find just one pill. My fellow Taoist wants ten pills at once, which makes me really embarrassed..."
Zuo Gongquan took a deep breath and then smiled bitterly.
"As far as I know, there is a crystallization stage demon beast called Fire Toad Ant deep in the Tongyang Mountains. The demon elixir of this beast is the main material for refining Chi Yuan Dan. With such good innate conditions, is it possible that Tongyangfang City
Isn’t it possible that no one in the world can refine the Red Yuan Pill?" The man in green said as if he was a little strange.
"Fellow Daoist Ye was joking. How could an alchemy master who could refine the Red Yuan Pill come to our little corner of the country? As for the Fire Toad Ant Demon Pills produced in the Tongyang Mountains, most of them are sold to some larger chambers of commerce or
There are very few people in the sect who would keep it for themselves." Zuo Gongquan shook his head and said.
"I didn't expect this kind of situation. However, my friend said that the monk surnamed Fan in the hunting group at that time seemed to be quite good at alchemy. He should be able to refine this elixir. The left leader was from that hunting group.
Isn't there a way to contact the main fundraiser and find out the price? It's easy to tell." The man in green said with his hands spread out.
"Fellow Daoist Ye is talking about a monk with scars on his face?" Zuo Gongquan said with a slight movement in his eyes.
"Yes, this is the person. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zuo can contact this Fellow Daoist Fan and ask him to help refine the Red Yuan Dan. As for the materials, I have already prepared a lot of them myself. I will thank you very much afterwards!" The man in Tsing Yi said.
He cupped his hands and looked at Zuo Gongquan with burning eyes.
"Fellow Daoist Ye may have misunderstood. I am actually an acquaintance with that fellow Daoist Fan, but we just walked together for a period of time before." Zuo Gongquan said with a frown.
"Is that so? That's such a pity. I thought I could make friends with an alchemy master." The man in green frowned slightly, with a look of disappointment on his face, and sighed softly.
This man in green was naturally disguised as Liu Ming. After he left the Jackdaw Sect, he spent more than half a month traveling day and night to reach the Tongyang Mountains. After some investigation, he deliberately contacted Zuo Gongquan.
This led to today’s conversation.
Zuo Gongquan is a middle-stage True Pill monk and the leader of a sect. Naturally, he cannot directly control him and interrogate him slowly like he did with Old Man Wu of the Jackdaw Sect, so he uses this roundabout way to inquire about Qian Huanren.
The whereabouts of the devil.
But now it seems that the result is not good.
As a result, just as Liu Ming was thinking about it several times, intending to use other methods to circumvent some information about Qianhuan Human Demon, Zuo Gongquan's voice sounded again:
"You don't have to be disappointed, Daoyou Ye. Although I don't have a close relationship with Daoyou Fan, I happened to meet Daoyou Fan a year ago in Nanlu City, not far away. He seems to be living there temporarily. I can say that I have met Daoyou Fan several times.
, I can reluctantly introduce you to fellow Taoist Ye, but I can't guarantee whether I can ask him to make elixirs." After Zuo Gongquan pondered for a while, he suddenly said this again.
"Seriously, then I'll have to ask fellow Daoist Zuo for help. I don't know when we can set off."
When Liu Ming heard this, he was startled for a moment, then became very happy.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, please wait here while Zuo goes to take care of some trivial matters in the shop. How about leaving in half a day?" Zuo Gongquan said and stood up.
"Okay, I'll give you a favor, fellow Taoist. I happen to be going to the market to buy some things." Liu Ming also stood up and said with a grateful face.
After a while, Liu Ming had already walked out of the store.
Zuo Gongquan was at the window upstairs, looking at Liu Ming's back gradually receding on the street, with an undetectable glint in his eyes.
Liu Ming walked out of the Treasure Building, looked around a few times, and then walked towards the end of Fangshi without looking back.
Tongyangfang Market is no different from an ordinary small market. The streets are lined with various shops of varying heights.
This place is near the Tongyang Mountains. As the saying goes, those who rely on the mountains eat the mountains. Therefore, most of these shops are grocery stores that sell monsters, ores, etc.
In addition to Liu Ming on the street, there were also many monks going in and out of the shops on both sides, buying and selling what they wanted with different expressions.
Most of them are monks in the liquid condensation stage. Occasionally, we can see crystal-forming monks appearing, but we have never seen them in the true elixir stage.
Liu Ming had already concealed his aura through the secret technique of the Car Suffering Totem, so he didn't attract too much attention. He followed the sparse flow of people and walked slowly through the shops as if nothing had happened.
He was fine on the surface, but his heart was already churning.
This time, I didn't expect to find the whereabouts of the "Thousand Illusion Human Demon" in Zuo Gongquan.
Regardless of whether this was a coincidence or Zuo Gongquan had some ulterior motives, this trip to Tongyangfang City finally paid off.
Liu Ming thought about this, exhaled softly, and casually walked into a seemingly run-down grocery store.
There is only one facade in the shop, and there is only a crooked plaque hanging on the door. There are two old wooden shelves inside, and some monster materials, ores, spiritual materials, etc. are placed on the shelves.
Liu Ming took a glance and saw that they were all low-level spiritual herbs, ores, monster materials, and old goods from who knows how long ago. There was a lot of dust on them.
But he didn't really want to buy anything, he was just wandering around casually, so he didn't need to worry about it.
"Senior, what do you need?" Seeing Liu Ming walking in, a skinny old man with messy hair hurriedly came over to greet him.
Liu Ming glanced at him and saw that the skinny old man was just a monk in the spiritual disciple stage. He looked old and was considered to be the lowest-cultivated person in this city.
"I just want to take a look, you don't have to say hello." Liu Ming nodded and said lightly.
"Okay, senior, please take your time and take a look. Although the shop is small, it still has a lot of good things." The skinny old man couldn't see through Liu Ming's cultivation, so he laughed twice and stepped aside in a dignified manner.
Liu Ming ignored him and looked at the shelves casually, thinking about what Zuo Gongquan said about Nanlu City.
"Hey!" He stopped in front of a shelf and his eyes fell on a black carapace the size of a washbasin.
The carapace seems to be the back shell of some kind of tortoise-shell monster. Some densely packed small square patterns can be vaguely seen on the black carapace, which looks quite mysterious.
"What is this?" The distraction in Liu Ming's heart was gone. He couldn't help but take the tortoise shell in his hand and look at it carefully.
The tortoise shell emitted very faint mana fluctuations, and it looked like its spiritual power had been exhausted, but Liu Ming's eyes gradually brightened.
Some green could be faintly seen on the upper edge of the black carapace. He scratched the broken part of the carapace with his fingers, and there was a faint feeling of smoothness in the dry touch.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and the strange color on his face disappeared.
"How can I sell this tortoise shell?"
"This senior is really discerning. This is the carapace of the Tuli Turtle in the Liquid Condensation Period. It is a genuine material for mid-level monsters and an excellent material for refining mid-level defensive weapons." The skinny old man glanced at Liu Ming's hand.
The tortoise shell made an exaggerated sound.
"Tu Ligui... Not to mention whether what you said is true or not, this thing has been here for at least twenty years." Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and showed a half-smile.
"Senior, I was joking. The shop has always had a good reputation in Tongyangfang City and never sells fake goods. This piece of Tuli turtle shell was indeed purchased by the little old man from a condensation stage monk before, but the time is also correct.
As you said, it has been ten or twenty years." The skinny old man choked when he heard the words and forced a smile.
"Okay, I want this. How many spiritual stones do you want?" Liu Ming asked with a slight smile.
The skinny old man breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of joy in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "Five thousand spirit stones. I spent 4,500 spirit stones to acquire this thing. After all these years, what's wrong with me, little old man?"
I also want to make some money."
Liu Ming sighed in a low voice, took out fifty pieces of mid-level spiritual stones and threw them to the skinny old man. He turned over and put away the tortoise shells and walked out of the shop.
"Thank you, senior, and walk slowly." The skinny old man put the spirit stone away with a smile and watched Liu Ming leave.
After Liu Ming walked more than a dozen feet away, he looked back at the shabby shop, then heyed and strode away.
That piece of turtle shell is not the shell of a Tuli turtle. It is clearly the back carapace of the True Alchemy Realm monster, Lu Wu Turtle, but the layer of black material on it covers up its mana fluctuations.
From his perspective, this piece of tortoise shell should be the back carapace of a certain Lu Wu turtle in the middle stage of the True Pill. Such a large piece would require at least 30 million spirit stones.
Liu Ming felt excited. With this piece of Lu Wu's tortoise shell, he could refine at least forty or fifty Vajra Bone Tempering Pills. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
