I just want to be a quiet man

He has abundant muscles and weak bones, and his cheeks are condensed with fresh pears. He is graceful and gorgeous but has a sense of innocence and brightness unique to girls. He is looking at Kang Chengzhi calmly.

Chapter 174: High-end hunter...

Seeing this female cultivator, Kang Chengzhi was slightly taken aback.

He has traveled all over the world for so many years, and has seen as many female cultivators as the crucian carp in the river, but he has never seen such a beauty!

And judging by her makeup, is this a local female cultivator of the Liugai Dynasty?

"Senior, this is my daughter, Fan Jusong." Lao Fan suddenly straightened up, smiled slightly, and introduced.

Hearing this, Kang Chengzhi nodded lightly.

He is not a person who is greedy for beauty, otherwise he was born as a casual cultivator, and he would not be able to cultivate to the stage of alchemy, and he would still be able to pass the examination of the eighth-rank alchemist of the Liulu Dynasty.

But the beauty in front of her is really outstanding, and her color is rare.

Up to now, this Qi training loose cultivator must die.

But the opponent's sixth-grade alchemy furnace, as well as this beautiful daughter, I can accept them all!

Thinking of this, Kang Chengzhi twisted his neck, showing a sinister smile, his figure flickered, and instantly appeared in front of that beautiful nun!

"Little beauty, your father asked you to take good care of me!" Kang Chengzhi said, and was about to caress the face of the opponent's bully Saixue, but the next moment...

The beautiful female shaving close at hand stretched out a boneless catkin with no expression on her face, and pressed it towards the top of his head.

Kang Chengzhi didn't pay attention to it at first, and immediately grabbed the opponent's raised arm, but the moment his fingertips just touched the opponent's sleeve, a huge force suddenly came!

He is a monk of alchemy, and among casual cultivators, he can be regarded as a respectable figure.

However, at this moment, it was like a flat boat on the vast and angry sea. In the face of this majestic force, there was no room for resistance, click!

Amidst the crisp sound of bone shattering, blood splashed everywhere, and Kang Chengzhi's arm was instantly shattered into flesh!

Bang.

Between the two of them, a bloody manjusawa flower full of bloody aura bloomed in an instant!

Kang Chengzhi's face changed drastically, he immediately knew that something was wrong, he didn't care about the severe pain from his shoulder, and hurriedly wanted to run for his life.

But at this moment, the beautiful female cultivator in front of him, who looked innocent and weak just now, had a powerful aura instantly, and in the dark, it seemed like an endless sea of ​​blood, surging towards, roaring and sweeping the entire world!

Countless white bones floated up and down in the sea of ​​blood, and a ferocious aura rushed to his face, as sharp as a blade...

In an instant, Kang Chengzhi's mind and spirit were seized by it, his limbs and bones lost their cultivation, like an insect frozen in amber, seemingly unharmed except for the missing arm, but unable to move at all!

Zhou Miaoli didn't have any surprises about this scene, her eyes didn't change in any way, she raised her palm calmly, pressed down on the top of Kang Chengzhi's head, and then performed the [Soul Swallowing and Melting Life Skill] that she had practiced for the past two days...

"Aaaaaaaaaa!!!"

In the dilapidated courtyard, screams resounded suddenly.

However, outside the small courtyard, everything was as usual, and there was no sound.

A gust of wind blew, the miscellaneous trees swayed slightly, and several gorgeous flowers that bloomed to the extreme fell lightly, looking around, it was the tranquility that was common under the rule of the imperial dynasty.

※※※

Ge Yuan.

As time passed, the main hall gradually became empty.

Most of the alchemists had packed up their things and left, only Pei Ling remained where he was.

By his side, surrounded by several alchemists, they were still trying to bargain.

These people are all nine-rank alchemists who were born as casual cultivators.When most people surrounded Pei Ling before, they had no chance to come forward to make a deal.

At this moment, everyone had almost left, and there were still many top-quality Peiyuan pills in the alchemy furnace in front of Pei Ling, so he came up to pester him with the idea of ​​giving it a try.

It's just that their bid is too low, and Pei Ling has already purchased a considerable amount of medicinal materials, so they are resolutely unwilling to lower the price, and the two sides will inevitably find it difficult to reach an agreement for a while.

At the moment of stalemate, there was a clear and clear chime sound from the corner, everyone was slightly startled, at this moment, they saw a line of waiters walking in outside the door, the leader bowed and said politely: "All alchemists, This is the end of today's trade fair. The owner of the house is busy now, so it is inconvenient to see you off, so I invite Haihan."

"After ten days, the master will prepare refreshments here, and then wait for all alchemists to come."

Hearing this, Pei Ling and the others hurriedly agreed, and thereafter they had no intention of continuing to pester each other, so they packed up and left.

After a while, the noisy main hall left completely.

The waiters began to clean and tidy up, but at this time, Tu He, who claimed to have important matters, came out from a small door at the back.

Seeing this, the leading waiter immediately stepped forward and said, "Master, the number of top-quality pills on Wang Gao's body is abnormal, you want to check it?"

Tu He shook his head slightly, and said: "I left just now to contact Baigongya to inquire about Wang Gao's situation. This Wang Gao is keeping a low profile. In the first half of the trade fair, he didn't express his alchemy strength. The Baigong Ya told the old man that this person looks young, but he is already a fifth-rank alchemist!"

"Moreover, just when he was escorted to the county town by the people from Chanlou, and entered the Baigong Yamen to verify his identity, he made a batch of Peiyuan pills on the spot. It took a very short time, but each one was of the highest quality."

"The audition for this person will be held in Xiaqiu City under the jurisdiction of the county city."

"So after he left, the Baigong Yamen in the county city checked with the Baigong Yamen in the Qicheng City."

"This Wang Gao practiced alchemy in public three times when he was in Qicheng."

"The first time was during the audition. When the time was approaching, it only took a short while to refine a batch of top-quality Peiyuan Pill."

"The second time was in front of He Wufu and Xue Ruyan, refining a furnace of top-quality foundation-building pills."

"The third time... that was when the city lord of Qucheng hosted a banquet, and in front of all the dignitaries in the city, he refined five batches of top-grade transformation pills in one go!"

"All the pills, none of them missed, all of them are top quality."

"If there is no bold exaggeration and embellishment on such a big matter in Qucheng, Wang Gao's alchemy skills may be different from the old man's!"

"After all, although I have been immersed in alchemy for many years, I think I have some experience, but I can't do it. Every time I open the furnace, all the alchemy is perfect!"

"This person is a casual cultivator who was born in Wan Feihai. In order to become a blockbuster in my alchemy ceremony, relying on his superb alchemy skills, he has stockpiled decades in advance, and today he took out so many top-quality pills in one go. Not surprising."

The waiter in the lead couldn't help being startled, and said in amazement: "The alchemist Wang Gao looks young, but his alchemy skills can be compared with the master's?"

Tu He narrowed his eyes, and said lightly, "There are not many restrictions on the participants in the alchemy ceremony."

"The strictest thing is age."

"But the world is so big, there are endless ways to hide the real age."

"Based on Wang Gao's alchemy skills so far, no matter how talented he is, without decades of tempering and experience, it is absolutely impossible to reach such a level!"

"The old man suspects that this person's real age may be close to a hundred years old."

"It's even very possible that, just like the old man's age, he has already exceeded the requirement of being a hundred years old."

"In any case, his alchemy skills are truly outstanding."

"So don't worry about it for now."

"When the county test starts, let people pay special attention and focus on checking their bone age."

"Such a talent, it would be a pity not to stay with me."

"However, we can't let him rely on secret techniques to squeeze out the place that a real alchemist within a hundred years old should have!"

The lead waiter hurriedly said: "Yes!"

Chapter 175: Retreating to Alchemy.

The shadow of the sun slanted to the west.

Ge Yuan.

Just as Pei Ling walked out of the gate, Shi Wanli, who was waiting under the shade of a tree not far away, immediately greeted him: "Master Wang, how did you get?"

"It's not bad." Pei Ling smiled slightly and said, "I'm going to retreat and refine the elixir for a period of time. After ten days, I'll come here to participate in the trade fair."

Seeing that Master Wang Gao was in a good mood, Shi Wanli couldn't help showing a smile, and said immediately: "Then I will escort Master back to the cave to rest."

The two walked away from Ge Yuan.

On the way back to Dongfu, they encountered two groups of patrols spot checks.

In one of the teams, there happened to be a monk Shi Wanli knew.

Of course, even so, the two of them still need to show their identity certificates to verify their authenticity.

After confirming that there was no problem, Shi Wanli greeted the other party, and asked through voice transmission: "The magic cultivator in Qucheng, haven't you caught yet?"

"No." The monk still had a task to do, so it was inconvenient to say more, so he just replied briefly, "Although several demon lairs have been destroyed these days, and some demon cultivators have been arrested one after another, they have been identified by the people in the city lord's mansion of the city. , none of them are that demon cultivator."

Shi Wanli frowned, and sent another voice transmission: "What is Qin Tianjian's calculation?"

"Nothing at all!" The acquaintance had already walked a distance at this time, and said hastily, "The other party's background can already be confirmed to be an elite rookie among the four major demon sects, whose name is recorded in the secret book, and there are sects to help him suppress his luck and cover up his secrets The technique of deduction has no effect on it. It’s just that we can’t confirm which one it is for the time being... I heard that the higher-ups are discussing how to take revenge. In the past few days, you’d better not leave that Master Wang too far.”

"There are still many days before the alchemy ceremony will end."

"After being retaliated against by the Four Great Demon Sects, they might use Master Wang's outflow to intimidate casual cultivators outside the country and stop joining our dynasty."

Shi Wanli suddenly stood awe-inspiring, and because Pei Ling was beside him, he didn't want the other party to know the difficulty and threat of the Demon Sect, so he just nodded slightly: "Don't worry!"

After a while, Shi Wanli sent Pei Ling back to the cave with a calm expression.

After Pei Ling entered, he quickly inspected the entire cave, making sure that no one had been there during this period, and then entered the alchemy room.

He first took out the many materials he acquired today and classified them one by one.

This time, thanks to the large number of storage tools on Pei Ling's body, otherwise, the amount of medicinal materials traded today might not be able to hold it at all.

"Although there are not a few pills received this time, most of them are foundation-building pills." While sorting out, he thought to himself, "The surprise is that there are some rare poisonous pills. Fang...but after all, he is a well-known orthodox cultivator who sells poison elixirs, and also sells the corresponding detoxification elixirs by the way."

"I hope that the onset time of these poison pills can fill in the gaps in the onset of my existing poison pills."

"This is exactly what can be used to interrupt the system."

"We will refine the detoxification pill first, and then refine the poison pill."

"Only received two alchemy recipes at the alchemy level."

"One is the continuation bone pill formula;"

"There is another one, that is the Rebellious Pill Formula that Tu He sold to me..."

"Hehe! I didn't even pay back the price of a pill, so Tu He must have made a fortune."

"He should be very happy. I will go to the next trade fair, and he must be very welcome!"

"Wait until the refining of Jiedu Pill and Poison Pill is completed, and then try to refine the Death Against Fate Pill and Bone Bone Pill."

"Then there are those common pills in the foundation building period."

"What are Qinghun Pill, Longevity Pill, Zhuyan Pill..."

Thinking about it this way, Pei Ling tidied up a lot of medicinal materials, and then began to entrust the practice of [Alchemy]...

Time passed quickly, and three days passed in a flash.

Alchemy room.

Driven by the spirit stone, the array arranged on the roof glows with soft white light day and night, illuminating the entire space clearly.

Pei Ling sat on the ground with a tired expression, and in front of him were various jade bottles engraved with miniature confinement formations.

In the past three days, he has entrusted the refining of a large number of top-quality pills, each of which is available.

Moreover, Pei Ling has recorded the time required for each refinement and the timing of the poisonous pill in detail.

In the next county test, as long as the test is for this kind of common pill, he can easily grasp it, and he doesn't have to worry about refining five furnaces of pills at the banquet in Qicheng.

As for whether the county test will assess some rare and rare pills...

This possibility is very small.

Because the elixir is too rare, most alchemists do not have the elixirs, so the elixirs must be provided by the Liugai Dynasty.

And the purpose of the Liugai Dynasty to hold the Alchemy Discussion Ceremony was to recruit talents.

Such as Peiyuan pill, which is an ordinary medicine during the Qi training period, is provided as long as it is provided. After all, it is widely spread and has limited value.

However, even if the pill itself has a limited effect on the remote and rare pills, for alchemists who are infatuated with alchemy, a pill that has never been seen before is always quite attractive.

Why not keep it for persuading overseas casual cultivators who have proved their strength through the alchemy ceremony to become naturalized, but use it during the county examination?

After all, in the alchemy ceremony, the rule that if you fail to pass, you have to pay for the alchemy formula and materials is only limited to auditions.

This move is mainly to restrict those monks who know nothing but are curious or deliberately waste the resources provided by the dynasty.
