Zhang Chi didn't think so. As soon as he got started, he judged that the material of this alchemy furnace was Ruyi Qiankun gold. This metal is very light and can float on the water of the Tianhe River and never sink. It can also withstand the calcining of the Samadhi True Fire.
Ruyi Qiankun Gold captures the aura of heaven and earth, absorbs the essence of the sun and moon, and has strong spirituality. Even in heaven, this kind of material is hard to come by.
When Nuwa mended the sky and refined the colorful stones, the furnace she used was made of Ruyi Qiankun gold.
Another characteristic of Ruyi Qiankun Gold is that it can continuously evolve under the calcination of the true fire of Samadhi.
The black-shell green alchemy furnace that Zhang Chi used to have was only a low-grade alchemy furnace. The nature of the alchemy furnace determined that he could only refine low-grade golden elixirs within the third grade, and could not do anything for middle- and high-grade golden elixirs.
The Ruyi Qiankun Gold elixir furnace is different. It will continue to develop with continuous refining. As long as the furnace is successfully opened and properly maintained, there is no pressure to refine gold elixirs below the seventh grade.
In the past, there was a statue of Taishang Laojun, which was used as a portable alchemy furnace.
If this kind of alchemy furnace absorbs enough spiritual energy, it can change its size freely. Such a precious treasure is thrown into the scrap pile casually. Doesn't the old man know the goods?
The more Immortal Zhang looked at it, the more he fell in love with it. He wished he could keep it as his own, but no matter how much he liked it, it was not his own. Wouldn't it be a bit presumptuous to ask for it?
Mr. Qin saw the clues from his expression and whispered: "Do you like this broken stove?"
Zhang Chi sighed deliberately and said: "I used to have an identical one at home, which was a relic left by my father to me. But a few months ago, my home unfortunately caught fire, and I ran out without taking anything with me.
When the fire went out, it was nowhere to be found. It must have been melted by the fire."
If you want to get it, you have to play the emotional card, win sympathy, and make the old man think that he is caused by a complex.
Mr. Qin secretly scolded this boy for being cunning and telling lies. He pointed at the alchemy furnace and said, "This alchemy furnace does not belong to you."
Zhang Chi quickly explained: "Master, I didn't mean that, I just felt it was very similar." He put down the alchemy furnace as a gesture, but the furnace did not leave his hand. He was really reluctant to let go.
But I heard Mr. Qin say: "Take it away if you like it, it's not a good thing."
Zhang Chi thought he had heard wrong. Happiness came so suddenly. He could hardly believe that the old man had taken advantage of such a precious treasure. Could it be that Mr. Qin had misjudged it? Zhang Chi thought it was unlikely.
Mr. Qin is the person he has met in the mortal world who is most worthy of the words "unfathomable and profound". Since Mr. Qin can know the teeth of the ancient mythical beast Enlightenment Beast, it stands to reason that he should also know the Ruyi Qiankun Gold. If he knew it was a treasure, he would still
What’s the reason for giving it to yourself? What’s the hidden plot behind it?
Immortal Zhang unkindly began to think of conspiracy theories. He said hypocritically: "A gentleman does not take away people's love."
Mr. Qin already seemed impatient: "You are such a fart gentleman, do you want it or not?"
Zhang Chi said hypocritically: "Then I'm so embarrassed."
Mr. Qin chuckled, turned around and walked out: "If you don't want it, just let it go."
Put it down? Do you really think I'm a piece of shit who doesn't want to take advantage of me? I don't care what conspiracy you always have, the temptation of this alchemy furnace is too great, take it away first.
Immortal Zhang held the Ruyi Qiankun Gold Alchemy Furnace and followed Mr. Qin: "Master, then I won't be polite to you."
Mr. Qin said: "Why did Xie Zhongjun accept such a hypocritical disciple like you?"
Zhang Chi is in a good mood now. Even if Mr. Qin slanders him, even if he beats him upright, he will be happy.
The old man is not simple. There must be some ulterior motive for asking Xiao Jiujiu to lure me here today, but I don’t care what your motive is. With the harvest of this alchemy furnace, I will be happy even if you use me again, not to mention that I am originally
I owe you a great favor, I am still your disciple.
It's strange. No one knows that I can make alchemy. Can Mr. Qin tell it from his face? That's it, I met an expert. Thinking back to Mr. Qin's interrogation of myself before, this old man must have discovered something.
.
However, the old man was so generous. He gave himself a Ruyi Qiankun Gold Alchemy Furnace casually. Zhang Chi was immersed in the surprise of harvesting the treasure, and his life suddenly felt complete.
The exhibition room in front was Mr. Qin's private collection. The old man didn't hide anything. He opened the password door and walked in with Zhang Chi.
There were many treasures on display inside. Zhang Chi found the tooth of the enlightened beast and immediately realized Mr. Qin’s true intention of bringing him here. He said with some embarrassment: “Master, I spent a lot of money on you in Panjiayuan that day.
It’s not intentional, I just like this dragon tooth fossil.”
Mr. Qin stood beside him, looking at the teeth of the enlightened beast that had been placed in a glass cover and said, "I thought you and that foreigner were teaming up to trick me."
Zhang Chi said: "I don't dare, even if you give me a hundred courages, I wouldn't dare."
Mr. Qin laughed and said, "I don't dare to do it anyway!"
"I really don't know that foreigner."
Mr. Qin said: "Then do you recognize this tooth?"
Zhang Chi's heart sank. The old man's sharp eyes were fixed on his eyes, as if he wanted to look directly into his heart through his eyes. Zhang Chi could almost conclude that Mr. Qin must have seen some secrets from himself. If he kept hiding it, it would be worse.
If you are unwise, you need to play some strategy.
Zhang Chi said: "I dare not lie to Master, these teeth should be the teeth of the cubs of the ancient mythical beast Enlightenment Beast."
Mr. Qin frowned. This naughty disciple actually told the truth. He originally thought that he would fight to the end. Perhaps this is the cleverness of this kid. He saw that he had doubts and knew that he could not hide it.
I only admitted it because of the situation.
It is not easy for a young man to recognize the teeth of ancient mythical beasts. Mr. Qin said: "Ancient mythical beasts? Isn't it only in legends?"
Zhang Chi said: "Master, actually I have some special powers." Mr. Qin must be made to feel his honesty.
Mr. Qin laughed at his words: "Special powers, you are telling me a joke!"
Zhang Chi said: "I'm not joking, in fact, my ancestor is Zhang Liang and Zhang Zifang, and I am also a direct descendant of Zhang Daoling and Zhang Tianshi, so our ancestors have more or less special powers for generations."
He is also talking serious nonsense, using one lie to cover up another lie. As for whether he will use more lies to cover up today's story in the future, we will talk about it later.
You can't tell Mr. Qin truthfully that you are a deposed god in heaven. If you say so, Mr. Qin will probably kick him out.
Mr. Qin actually believed it. He nodded and said, "Descendants of Master Zhang, it sounds like you have inherited some magic power."
Zhang Chi said: "I'm not afraid of Master's jokes. I just have a special sensitivity to some things. For example, this tooth. I felt it was different at first sight, and then I thought of the teeth of the enlightened beast. Don't you think it's strange? I
I have never seen it before, so I can naturally associate it with it, maybe there is some kind of telepathy in my body."
Mr. Qin secretly thought that maybe this was his talent. He did not continue to ask questions, but suddenly asked: "How much do you plan to pay for this stove?"
Zhang Daxian seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water over his head. He looked at Mr. Qin in astonishment. Didn't he just say that he would be taken away by me? Didn't he say anything about money?
Only then did Zhang Chi realize that Mr. Qin did not give it to him. The old man was not that big-hearted. Zhang Chi understood that he had been tricked by the old man. He swallowed and said, "How much do you think I should pay?"
Mr. Qin chuckled: "You are my disciple, how can I have the nerve to ask you for money? Besides, your family situation is not good."
Zhang Chi no longer believes what the old fox said. Mr. Qin still remembers the last time he spent 200,000 yuan in Panjiayuan. If he wants to use this incident to recover the loss, what should I do?
What should I do? Even if I sell myself now, I still can’t get out 200,000 yuan, but I love this stove so much that I really can’t bear to let it go.
Mr. Qin said: "You take some symbolic money, I think it's just one million!"
Immortal Zhang almost dropped his tongue to the ground, one million! This is still symbolic, and it also means getting some money. Although this treasure is indeed worth one million, he really can't get it out now.
The old man is so unkind. I walked all this distance with you happily holding the stove, but in the end you actually entertained me. You clearly know that I don’t have one million. It’s so unkind. If you don’t give it, you won’t give it.
There is no need to play with me!
People are poor and have short ambitions, so Zhang Chi said honestly: "Master, I don't have that much money. Let alone one million, I can't even come up with ten thousand yuan."
"No money!" Mr. Qin looked at him with a smile, as if he had caught the tail of a little fox. Seeing the depressed look on his face, he felt really happy.
Zhang Chi understood Mr. Qin's tricks and had the urge to put down the alchemy furnace, but he couldn't bear to part with it in his heart, so he said shamelessly: "Master, how about I give you one for now?"
Mr. Qin said: "Are you kidding? You can't even get out ten thousand yuan. When will you be able to pay back one million yuan?"
Zhang Chi stretched out three fingers and vowed: "Three years, three years, I will return all Bengali to you."
He originally thought that Mr. Qin would not agree, but he did not expect that Mr. Qin actually nodded: "Three years is just three years, but at this rate, with an interest of 200,000 yuan per year, you can't shortchange me by a penny."
Immortal Zhang secretly sighed, loan sharking, Mr. Qin, as a retired cadre, you openly do this, and you do it to your own disciples, is this appropriate? What about your noble revolutionary sentiments?
But he is also prepared. I will get the alchemy furnace first. Based on my wisdom, one million and six hundred thousand is not a big amount. If I really can't make any money, I will return the alchemy furnace to you after one year.
, I will spend this year working hard to refine the alchemy and squeeze out the value of the alchemy furnace. At worst, I will return the interest of 200,000 yuan to you. Anyway, I will not suffer any loss.
The two reached an agreement. Mr. Qin took care of business and asked Zhang Chi to write him an IOU, sign it and post it, and also asked Zhang Chi to leave a copy of his ID card. After finishing this, Mr. Qin invited him to have dinner.
Xiao Jiujiu was already waiting outside. She didn't meet Qin Junqing for too long. In fact, she just said hello out of politeness. Qin Junqing had a cold temperament and didn't like to have contact with the outside world. She wouldn't even attend lunch.
, it seems that he doesn’t take this nephew seriously.
Zhang Chi felt that since he was here, Qin Luzhu's mother, who was also his aunt, had to pay a visit, so he asked Mr. Qin what he wanted.
Mr. Qin said: "Forget it, Jun Qing doesn't like to meet outsiders. We will meet each other in the future if we have a chance."
We had lunch in their small canteen. Mr. Qin's diet was light. These dishes also lacked salt and oil, and the taste was not complimentary. However, the wine was good, so he opened a bottle of Air Force Moutai.
This was the first time for Zhang Chi to drink this kind of blue-bottle Maotai. He respectfully served two glasses of wine to Mr. Qin. Regardless of the relationship between master and apprentice, just the alchemy furnace of Ruyi Qiankun Gold that the old man sold to him was a big deal.
Qing, don't look at the asking price of one million, it's cheap, too cheap.
However, he had the stove but not the fire source stone. His fire source stone was broken and now integrated into his body. He could only absorb the true fire of samadhi, but he didn't know how to release the true fire.
Zhang Chi even had the idea of asking Mr. Qin for advice, but he gave it up after careful consideration. Don't be regarded as a monster by the old man. Moreover, once these secrets are exposed, they may cause endless trouble to him.
Mr. Qin asked about Zhang Chi's situation after enrolling in school. Mr. Zhang Chi answered honestly. He did not say that he was arranged to live in the basement. After all, Mr. Qin had already troubled Mr. Qin enough, and he did not want to cause any more trouble for such a small matter.
Mr. Qin said: "Chang Yuan is your department chair. I have told him that he will definitely take care of you."
Zhang Chi nodded repeatedly, but thought to himself, he is enough to take care of me, and has already taken care of me in the basement. He also knows that he is not unjust, and he is the only one who can do this stupid thing by threatening his precious son in front of the camera at the dean's house.
Can do it.
This was the first time that Xiao Jiujiu saw Zhang Chi so well-behaved. It seemed that Mr. Qin was this guy's nemesis. She also imitated Zhang Chi and toasted Mr. Qin with two glasses of wine.
Mr. Qin said: "Is your study going well in Jiujiu?"
Xiao Jiujiu said: "Smooth."
Mr. Qin said: "The entertainment industry is a vanity fair, where good and bad people are mixed. You, a little girl, must know how to protect yourself."
Xiao Jiujiu smiled and said: "Grandpa Qin, don't worry, I know it well."
Zhang Chi said: "My master wants you to keep a clear mind, stay out of the mire, and don't get into the bad habits of the entertainment industry."
Xiao Jiujiu glared at him and said, "You are the only one who talks too much!"
Mr. Qin looked at Xiao Jiujiu and thought to himself that if this was his granddaughter, he would definitely not let her choose the entertainment industry. But everyone has their own ambitions, and it was hard for him to say anything. He took the wine offered by Xiao Jiujiu and
After finishing the drink, he said: "There is no problem in using your martial arts to protect yourself, but don't let fame and fortune go to your head. In fact, when people live in this world, being ordinary is the real thing."
Xiao Jiujiu knows that Mr. Qin is educating her, and she can understand the old man's concerns, but she does not agree with Mr. Qin's attitude. She is still young, she has her own dreams, and she will work hard to realize her dreams.
Zhang Chi said: "Listen, don't just think about being a star all day long. What are the benefits of being a star? You have to prevent people from taking photos when you sleep or go to the toilet. There is no freedom at all."
Xiao Jiujiu said: "Why do you speak so harshly? You don't seek to improve yourself. Do you wish that everyone in the world would just live in mediocrity like you?"
Zhang Chi pretended to be generous and said: "I'm a good man and I don't fight with women." How can I get by in my heart? I am also facing life positively now. With the alchemy furnace given to me by Mr. Qin, I want to restart my alchemy career. First of all
I want to save my master Huang Chunli.
Mr. Qin couldn't help but smile as he looked at the young couple. He said softly: "Everyone has his or her own ambitions, so we can't force them. It's not like Zhang Chi doesn't want to make progress, otherwise how could he be admitted to Shuimu."
Zhang Chi found that Mr. Qin was very protective of his shortcomings. Between himself and Xiao Jiujiu, he was obviously more attracted to his disciple, which made Zhang Daxian very warm. Xiao Jiujiu also found that Mr. Qin was better to Zhang Chi, and he would take advantage of the quarrel here.
Not cheap.
After lunch, Xiao Jiujiu drove Zhang Chi back to school. Zhang Chi did not mention the basement incident to Xiao Jiujiu. With Xiao Jiujiu's character, he would only gloat after hearing about it.
Xiao Jiujiu was very curious about the incense burner that Zhang Chi held in his arms like a treasure. Zhang Chi only said that it was a gift from Mr. Qin. He was embarrassed to say that he owed more than one million yuan on credit. If Xiao Jiujiu knew the inside story
, will definitely laugh at him for being a big idiot.
Zi Fei Yuan knows the joy of fish.
After they left, Mr. Qin went to the studio in the backyard. His daughter Qin Junqing was splashing ink on the painting table. When she heard her father come in, she gently put the pen on the pen holder and picked up the white cotton towel beside her to wipe her hands.
, then the jade hands as white as porcelain filled the incense burner with a stick of water and agarwood. Even every tiny movement was extremely elegant and unhurried.
Qin Junqing lives up to her name. Even when facing her father, she just nodded slightly and did not speak. Her noble and dignified face was unsmiling and her eyes were clear, but she could never be seen. You could not find anything in her eyes.
The warmth is like two pools of tranquil autumn water. Although it is clear, no waves can be seen, and there is no vitality as it should be.
Mr. Qin came to the painting desk and looked at the unfinished painting. It was an ink and wash lotus with just a few strokes. The aloofness of the lotus was vividly displayed on the paper. However, Mr. Qin was heartbroken because of the impact this painting had on him.
Shen, outsiders see Zen in paintings, but insiders see transcendence in them.
Qin Junqing made a cup of tea for his father, put his hands in front of him, and said softly: "Please give me some advice, father."
Mr. Qin took the cup of tea and had no intention of drinking it. He just held it quietly in his hand, thinking that his daughter had called him this for twenty-four years. In these twenty-four years, he never heard it again.
She called herself daddy. Although father and father meant the same thing, they both understood the difference in their hearts.
Mr. Qin stared at the painting silently for three minutes before saying, "I'm old!"
After saying that, he gently placed the cup of tea on the painting table. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the tea cup tipped over when he dropped it, and the amber tea poured over Qin Junqing's unfinished painting.
Qin Junqing's eyes were still and there were almost no things in this world that could move her.
Mr. Qin had no intention of apologizing, and walked outside without even looking at his daughter.
