I studied abroad in modern times

Fearing that Master Qian would say more, Zheng Fa hurriedly sent her away.

He followed Senior Sister Zhang to the main hall of Tiangong Island. Senior Sister Zhang didn't say much, but Zheng Fa felt a little guilty for some reason and changed the subject: "Master Tongming has replied to the letter. They are willing to pay with Tiangang Disha. If it is insufficient, they can use spiritual stones and spiritual materials to make up for it."

Senior Sister Zhang glanced at him and walked in front. She didn't mention Tang Lingwu, but just nodded and said: "This is convenient."

Zheng Fa also thought it was good, so that they didn't have to buy it themselves.

"They have a lot of Tiangang Disha in stock." Thinking of this, Zheng Fa couldn't help but sigh.

"This is as it should be." Senior Sister Zhang nodded and said: "These days... many disciples of the Hundred Immortals Alliance have died."

Senior Sister Zhang said slowly, Zheng Fa didn't understand it at first, but later he understood it, and felt a little hell in his heart:

Many people in the Hundred Immortals Alliance died...so some spiritual materials were left.

Although the Hundred Immortals Alliance also lost a lot of resources, especially the spiritual fields, but the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Evil Qi are things that most cultivators collect early in order to form pills...

Some cultivators will even prepare some for their younger disciples.

When those sects fled, it was not easy to carry the spiritual fields and spiritual veins.

But this kind of thing is also convenient to carry, so it is not obvious that it is lacking for a while.

On the contrary, because of the death of many disciples...the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Evil Qi has increased.

How to describe it?

People died, but the money was not spent.

It is precisely because of this that the Hundred Immortals Alliance may be more willing to use these temporarily useless spiritual materials to pay off their debts-before, they also sold a lot of Heavenly Gang and Earthly Evil Qi.

Zheng Fa suddenly felt that it was difficult to make money for the alliance...

"Then Madam Xuanhua, what are you going to do?"

Senior Sister Zhang suddenly asked again.

Zheng Fa was a little silent.

Madam Xuanhua...is still very important to the Nine Mountains Realm now.

The new eleven golden elixir methods need to be verified-this means that the external elixir experiment will be carried out again.

Although it is not impossible to make the Jiushan Sect succeed, it will definitely be very different with the addition of Madam Xuanhua.

This is a small matter.

Zheng Fa's natal magic weapon is the place where the master of refining is more needed.

"After all, we have had experience in cooperation. It would be best if we can continue to cooperate." Zheng Fa said, "If not, we won't force it."

Senior Sister Zhang nodded slowly.

"It's the same as I thought. Madam Xuanhua is capable and is friendly to us..."

"More importantly, she is alone."

Zheng Fa was stunned. It's not that he didn't understand what Senior Sister Zhang meant, but... Senior Sister Zhang inexplicably thought the same thing as him!

Although he couldn't see through the meaning of the letter from the Hundred Immortals Alliance, it was still related to Jiang Chengkong.

In this way, if the Jiushan Realm wants to be at peace, it may be that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop.

These days, Zheng Fa has been thinking about a question:

Who is the enemy of the Jiushan Sect and who is the friend of the Jiushan Sect...

Of course, because he has not investigated and the information is too little, he can only see the flowers in the fog.

But on the other hand, Zheng Fa has made some judgments:

The Five Xuanwei Sects, plus the Demon Sect, are probably the forces that need to be guarded against the most - unless they are like Yan Wushuang and Old Han, who pick up the bowl to eat and put it down to overturn the table.

The reason for this is naturally not good or evil, but from the perspective of Venerable Tianhe, the new law and new order envisioned by Zheng Fa may not be accepted by these major forces.

From the Five Xuanwei Sects down, the major sects are actually worthy of vigilance:

For example, the Baixian League accidentally popped up a background of the Supreme Dao - but compared with the Five Xuanwei Sects, there is no need to worry so much. For example, the matter of the Tianhe Secret Realm, I am afraid that the Baixian League did not know it before.

More trustworthy are those like Madam Xuanhua, who are not so closely related to various forces.

Of course, everyone has their own personality, and there are many people with bad character among the casual cultivators.

But from the perspective of the new law, the hidden dangers are not that big.

Next up, there are the Xuanwei mortals - they have not enjoyed any benefits in the Xuanwei Five Sects system, on the contrary, they have a hard time, so naturally they will not sincerely support the five major immortal sects.

The most trustworthy ones are naturally the disciples and mortals of the Nine Mountains Realm.

This is why Zheng Fa's ideas are almost all about consolidating the foundation, from the bottom up...

Because he is worried about the people above!

The most valuable thing about Madam Xuanhua is that she is not deeply involved in the major forces, but she is very capable.

He has also sorted out this idea recently, and has never told anyone.

Unexpectedly, Senior Sister Zhang actually... pointed it out directly!

Zheng Fa raised his eyes and looked at Senior Sister Zhang, only to see that Senior Sister Zhang glanced at him, her eyes full of meaningfulness...

"I think Madam Xuanhua is also very happy in the Nine Mountains Realm." Zheng Fa coughed lightly, and then said: "Why don't we take the eleven external alchemy methods to her first?"

Senior Sister Zhang smiled, probably also understood in her heart - this is another trick used by Junior Brother Zheng: the so-called knowledge temptation.

But they are all quite effective.

…

There is no need to repeat the old tricks!

“Madam, what did you say?”

Zheng Fa was holding a jade tube in his hand, a little confused.

“I… am willing to be an elder of the Yijiu Mountain Sect. I wonder if the headmaster can take me in?”

Madam Xuanhua had been thinking about it for the past few days, and she actually figured it out, and said directly to Zheng Fa.

Xiao Yuying, who was standing next to the two of them, had expected it - this woman had been thinking about it over and over for many days, and she was almost annoyed to death... Today, she finally made up her mind.

“Uh…”

Zheng Fa couldn't help but glance at the jade tube in his hand. In the jade tube, there were eleven newly compiled outer elixir methods.

This thing was originally used by Zheng Fa to seduce Mrs. Xuanhua.

Can……

I didn’t even take off my clothes, so you just...

ah?

He looked at Mrs. Xuanhua and saw a calm expression on her face, as if she had already thought about it, and there was a calm determination.

As a result, Zheng Fa hesitated.

"Madam...can I ask why this is so?"

"To tell you the truth, Master, I'm covetous of the "Golden Elixir Project"."

Mrs. Xuanhua said frankly.

"I will not hide the "Golden Elixir Project" from Madam."

"What about the principle behind the "Golden Elixir Project"?"

Mrs. Xuanhua smiled lightly.

"..."

Zheng Fa was silent for a moment. To be honest, he didn't want to hide it.

But this is something that even Mrs. Xuanhua can’t learn in a short period of time.

The knowledge required ranges from mathematics, to physics, and finally engineering...

It can be said that the thinking of the "Golden Elixir Project" project team is actually still in the modern era.

But he also understood what Mrs. Xuanhua meant. She was afraid that Zheng Fa would have a hand in it.

This is really overestimating one's own brains and underestimating Zheng Fa's mind...

Zheng Fa was not angry at all, Mrs. Xuanhua was just inferring her thoughts based on common sense in the Xuanwei world.

He thought for a while and said:

"If you are a member of our Jiu Shan Sect, do you understand the rules of our Jiu Shan Sect?"

"Understand……"

Mrs. Xuanhua's face couldn't help but reveal a hint of pain.

Zheng Fa knew why she was in pain:

Because they want to open up the Jiu Shan Sect and develop the Kaikai Island, Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang have just discussed the regulations on how to collect taxes and rents.

The regulations are roughly divided into two parts:

One is the consumption tax on Kaikai Island, which is very similar to the previous Jiushan Zongfang City.

Another thing that has happened before is that spontaneous transactions between Jiushan Sect disciples and the outside world... including transactions that are not conducted on Jingkai Island, are also taxed.

In other words, as long as it is produced, you have to pay...

For each product, Senior Sister Zhang sets the tax rate based on the internal situation of the Jiushan Sect.

Simply put, VAT.

There are many reasons for this, the most important one is what Uncle Pang raised: the problem of spiritual energy consumption.

Whether it's drawing talismans or refining weapons, all that is consumed is the spiritual energy of the Nine Mountains Realm.

It's okay for the disciples of Jiu Shan Realm. After all, there is not much difference from the previous rules of Jiu Shan Sect. Their ability to do business with external parties is also due to the cultivation of the sect.

Whether it is the various knowledge on University Island or the shelter in Jiushan Realm, they are all priceless treasures in Xuanwei Realm.

This is also the need for the normal operation of Jiu Shan Sect - to be honest, now, Jiu Shan Sect's investment in disciples is increasing, but the income is not high.

But for Mrs. Xuanhua... this is like grabbing meat from between her teeth. After all, she did business before, but no one asked her to collect taxes.

Seeing her like this, Zheng Fa smiled and then handed over the jade tube.

Mrs. Xuanhua took the jade tube, her soul sank into it, and she started to read...

Slowly, a smile appeared on her face. When she opened her eyes again, the pain in her face disappeared, her eyes were bright, and she sighed:

"It was only after reading this that I realized that it would be worthwhile for me to join the Nine Mountains Sect."

Zheng Fa understood what she meant:

The eleven simplified golden elixir methods are naturally extremely precious.

But what Mrs. Xuanhua values ​​​​is actually the ability to optimize the golden elixir method in batches!

The principle of the so-called "Golden Elixir Project"!

This is the reason why Mrs. Xuanhua took the initiative to join the group.

However, Zheng Fa smiled and said: "This thing was actually discussed with Madam before... Even if Madam doesn't join the Nine Mountains Sect, I will take it out."

Mrs. Xuanhua was stunned for a moment, with regret appearing on her face.

It seems that I have lost money again.

"There's just something. If Madam hadn't been willing to enter my Nine Mountains, I wouldn't have shown it to Madam even to death."

"What?"

Mrs. Xuanhua was stunned for a moment and asked.

Zheng Fa did not speak to her anymore, but suddenly turned to Xiao Yuying and said frankly: "This matter is a top secret of our Jiu Shan Sect, so... I am afraid that you, Fairy Xiao, cannot know about it."

Xiao Yuying: "..."

She silently took two steps back, and saw Zheng Fa smiling apologetically at him, leading Mrs. Xuanhua towards University Island.

Seeing the two people walking away, Xiao Yuying narrowed her eyes and felt a little uncomfortable...

I came first!

…

What Zheng Fa wants to hide from Xiao Yuying is actually the top secret of the Jiushan Sect - he is planning to try out the electron microscope... and even experimental equipment such as a particle collider in the Jiushan world.

It turns out that this is naturally not possible.

But since Senior Sister Zhang and Xiao Yuying discovered the shielding rune in the communication talisman, this became feasible.

Zheng Fa's idea was to create the Jiushan version of the experimental equipment based on the corresponding principles, combined with the thunder method and the weapon refining method——

He didn't want to do anything unnecessary, but wanted to study the spiritual materials themselves. You must have spiritual materials...

What can be studied in modern times is the particles produced by his golden elixir, which cannot be compared with other spiritual materials.

Therefore, it is extremely necessary to analyze spiritual materials in the Nine Mountains Realm.

To be honest, this thing is high-tech in modern times, and it is not like the golden elixir, which is something that originally existed in the mysterious world...

Zheng Fa attaches far more importance to it than others...

When grading all the knowledge of the Jiushan Sect, there is some knowledge that Zheng Fa and the Jiushan Sect will not pass on to others——

For example, the secret of the rocks obtained from the Tianhe Secret Realm.

Another example is the newly built laboratory and the principles of various experimental instruments.

These are considered top secrets. Even under the Nine Mountain Sect and Nascent Soul, it would be difficult to access this information.

Frankly speaking, he trusts Xiao Yuying, but... Xiao Yuying has a master who transforms into gods after all, and he is not from the Jiushan Sect.

He handed several jade tubes into the hands of Mrs. Xuanhua.

In the jade tube are the principles and design ideas of various experimental equipment.

"Ma'am, what do you think?"

"I can roughly understand it, but I don't quite understand why..." Mrs. Xuanhua said, "I need these things."

It was obvious that she was really confused.

After all, the experimental instruments or ideas involved are mostly used for observation, measurement and experimentation.

It is completely different from the idea of ​​​​magic weapons in Xuanwei Realm.

Most of the magic weapons in the Xuanwei Realm are used for combat. Of course, there are those who are good at observation, but they almost never fall outside the category of being helpful in combat - similar to a telescope.

However, the ideas for these magical instruments given by Zheng Fa are not capable of fighting at all, but they are extremely capable of observation and measurement.

This is what Mrs. Xuanhua doesn't understand.

"Madam..." Zheng Fa thought for a while and then said to Mrs. Xuanhua, "Observe, guess, and verify. This is the original intention of my Immortal Technique in the Nine Mountains Realm."

"..." Mrs. Xuanhua was a little confused. She was a newcomer after all.

Seeing that she was confused, Zheng Fa changed his explanation:

"Madam is a master of weapon refining, so I dare to ask..."

"What does the spiritual material consist of?"

"Why does a magic weapon need to be made with spiritual materials?"

"What is the difference between a spiritual treasure and a magical treasure?"

"And what's the difference between a natal magic weapon and an ordinary magic weapon?"

Mrs. Xuanhua looked at Zheng Fa blankly, her expression a little broken——

No, I need to know this, would I be here?

Can I change my name to Xuanhua Immortal Lord?

"This is the tool I use to explore these issues..."

Zheng Fa pointed at the jade tube in her hand and smiled.

Mrs. Xuanhua's expression changed, and she actually understood: "Observe..."

Zheng Fa smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Xuanhua was a little silent, as if she wanted to believe it, but also seemed not to want to believe it.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Zheng Fa took out another jade tube.

"Also, here are some of my ideas...for your reference, madam."

"Imagination?"

Mrs. Xuanhua was stunned for a moment and found that Zheng Fa didn't care that much when he said this. It seemed that the contents of the jade tube were not that important.

But when she took the jade tube and looked at it, she was shocked. She just felt that these things were much more intuitive than the various experimental instruments in the jade tube just now!

"A train for mortals and lower-level disciples?"

"The city that never sleeps?"

"Give the disciples a tool to check their bodies?"

"..."

Mrs. Xuanhua read and recited, but her final voice became quieter and quieter.

"This is……"

"These are some random ideas of mine." Zheng Fa said with a smile, "I just want to show you, Madam. If it is feasible in the future, we will give it a try."

With the shielding runes, not only experimental instruments, but also many modern products, Zheng Fa also wants to build them in Jiushan Realm - such as installing a street light in Banshan City and allowing ordinary people in Jiushan Realm to have a maglev train to ride on.

Of course there are some things in this that are not suitable for the Nine Mountains Realm - the shielding talisman text has a limited range and function, and it requires spiritual power. It is not completely cost-free, of course there are limitations.

Therefore, Zheng Facai said that these were his wild fantasies.

Mrs. Xuanhua nodded slowly and heard Zheng Fa say:

"Madam, I have always thought that...the meaning of weapon refining should not be to kill people, but to make the world's life better."

"..." Mrs. Xuanhua was silent for a while, then nodded slightly.

…

Because these things were top secret and even the jade tubes could not be taken out of the laboratory, Mrs. Xuanhua read the jade tubes back and forth in the laboratory for more than half a month. She didn't look back until she felt dizzy. Arrive at my yard.

In the courtyard, Xiao Yuying was waiting for her.

"how?"

Seeing her covering her head and looking like she was about to explode, Xiao Yuying asked curiously.

"Tired! I've never been so tired in my life!"

It is not a simple matter to use thunder methods and weapon refining to realize those jade tubes.

Especially the person who is good at refining weapons from the Jiushan Sect, that is, Mrs. Xuanhua... Naturally, those who can do more work.

"Then what?"

"I didn't know Zheng Fa had so many fantastic ideas."

"Huh?" Xiao Yuying raised her eyebrows, confused.

"I should have made up my mind a long time ago!" Mrs. Xuanhua suddenly laughed, "...I tell you, Zheng Fa..."

She seemed to want to say something, but she lightly covered her mouth.

Smiling sheepishly.

Xiao Yuying rolled her eyes.

Then Mrs. Xuanhua sighed and said, "If I had known this, why would I have been so entangled! Wouldn't it be better if I had surrendered to the Jiushan Sect?"

"..."

Xiao Yuying stood up.

"I'm telling you, I finally understand what it means to take what you want before giving it back... This time, it's not a loss!"

"Hey, you want to leave?"

Xiao Yuying had a straight face and didn't want to answer her words.

"Let me tell you, when you spoke before, this was the tone."

Xiao Yuying's eyes widened and she pointed at herself.

Mrs. Xuanhua nodded slightly.

…

"You have this pain in your face, have you got some enlightenment? Do you understand what it means to get what you want, you must give it first?"

In the sky, dozens of flying boats were heading towards the Nine Mountains Sect. On the boat in the middle, Master Chengkong was holding a pot of spiritual bamboo while reprimanding Master Tongming:

"Then whatever the Jiushan Sect wants, give it to them!"

"In the future, if the Nine Mountains Sect returns to the gates of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, wouldn't this mean that the left hand is the right hand? Why is it so stingy?"

Master Tongming said nothing.

But I couldn't help but murmur in my heart - left hand instead of right hand?

The Hundred Immortals Alliance is about to fall to others!

"I know you are not convinced..." But Master Chengkong glanced at him again and hummed, "With Zheng Fa's talent, how can he take the Hundred Immortals Alliance into his eyes in the future?"

"..."

Master Tongming slowly widened his eyes.

"When this is over, I will take him back to Taishangdao. With my background as Taishangdao, how could he care about a small Hundred Immortals Alliance? Isn't this Hundreds of Immortals Alliance your world again? It's just a name!"

Master Tongming couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. He looked at the spiritual bamboo in Master Chengkong's hand and asked curiously: "Sir, what is this spiritual bamboo that you value so much?"

Master Chengkong thought for a while and then said: "It's okay to tell you. This spiritual bamboo is called Qingjing Bamboo. It is a secret treasure of my Supreme Dao... It is the most effective in restraining the Great Freedom Demon Sect."

Master Tongming was startled and said hurriedly: "What if this spiritual bamboo is not good?"

"Then don't think about the Hundred Immortals Alliance. Think about how to escape."

"..."

Master Tongming looked at the spiritual bamboo and felt that the yellow spots on the bamboo leaves were becoming more and more dazzling...
