Dear Lingshi

Chapter 53 The Temptation of Foundation Building Pill

"Brother Chen, what can I do for you? Please come in." Lu Yunsheng invited Chen Dashi and others into the hall.

"Master Lu, I won't go in. I came here today... to join your monster hunting team. I hope Master Lu can give us a bowl of rice."

"Hey! Brother Chen, what you said is a bit harsh. I'm so happy that you want to join our monster hunting team. Come on, come in and sit down. Let's sit down and chat."

When the three heard Lu Yunsheng's words, smiles appeared on their faces. They did not refuse and followed Lu Yunsheng into the store.

"Aniu! Bring us the tea." Lu Yunsheng shouted to the waiter.

"Mr. Lu, there's no need to waste tea. We'll leave soon." Chen Dashi hurriedly stopped Aniu.

"Brother Chen, when you come to Duobao Pavilion from now on, just treat it as your own home. Don't be polite. Besides, I have something else I want to discuss with you."

Chen Dashi said seriously, "Mr. Lu, if you have anything to ask, please tell me. I, Chen Dashi, will go through fire and water for you."

Lu Yunsheng smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated. The thing is, you should know that our monster hunting team has just started to be formed, and now we are short of a captain. Brother Chen, since you have decided to join, with your experience and strength, this captain must be you."

"No! Absolutely not! With my limited abilities, how can I, Chen Dashi, take on such an important task?"

Lu Yunsheng smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Brother Chen has already reached the state of perfect Qi Refining. In terms of strength, you are qualified. Brother Chen is loyal and righteous, and his character is even better. It's settled."

Chen Dashi lowered his head and thought for a while after hearing this, then said to Lu Yunsheng solemnly: "Since Master Lu thinks so highly of me, I will definitely not let Master Lu down."

"Okay, you are worthy of being called Brother Chen. You are responsible. From now on, you are the captain of the Duobao Pavilion Monster Hunting Team. You are fully responsible for all matters of the Monster Hunting Team. If you have any difficulties, you can come to Miss Bai, or come to me directly."

"Is Mr. Lu here?"

Just as the two were talking, an old voice came from the door, interrupting them.

Lu Yunsheng raised his head and looked towards the door, only to see an old man standing at the door of Duobao Pavilion, looking inside.

Lu Yunsheng thought that he didn't know this person, but he still stood up to greet him.

"Senior, what can I do for you?"

"Master Lu, my name is Che Jianping. I was fortunate enough to see you on the city wall that day. Today, I learned that you were recruiting cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage, so I shamelessly came to ask you for a job."

When Lu Yunsheng heard this, he was immediately delighted, thinking that he was really lucky today as two great generals came at once.

"Please come in, Senior Che. It is an honor for our Duobao Pavilion to have you come to it." Lu Yunsheng said with a smile on his face.

After Che Jianping sat down on the armchair, he continued to say to Lu Yunsheng, "Mr. Lu, please don't rush to agree. I have something to explain to you before I join Duobao Pavilion, so as to avoid making me feel uneasy."

Lu Yunsheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, so he had to continue, "Senior, please talk slowly. We can discuss any questions you have."

"Mr. Lu, I have been stuck in the perfect foundation-building realm for more than fifty years and have yet to break through. I am over 180 years old this year and my time is up. I don't have many days left to live. I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't know when I will pass away. Are you willing to accept a cultivator like me?" Che Jianping slowly told him about his situation one by one.

Lu Yunsheng didn't think much after hearing this and said directly: "Since Senior Che is here, I naturally welcome you with open arms. Besides, Senior Che has a lucky star shining on him. Maybe one day he will be able to break through the shackles and become a Jindan cultivator respected by everyone."

"Hahaha, I want to thank Master Lu first. To be honest, although I am also a sword cultivator, I have been timid all my life, which has caused my sword heart to be tarnished and I have long since lost the possibility of making a breakthrough. It was only after I had the honor of seeing Master Lu's heroic demeanor that day that I realized something. I want to fight hard in the last moments of my life. In the future, you can send me to where the danger is greatest."

Lu Yunsheng smiled when he heard this, and said to Che Jianping: "In that case, Senior, you will be in charge of the Monster Hunting Team and be responsible for the safety of the Monster Hunting Team on weekdays. If there is any emergency, Senior can take action to deal with it."

"Okay! It's all up to you, Mr. Lu." Che Jianping said readily.

"Okay! Then let me introduce you, senior. This is Chen Dashi, the captain of our monster hunting team. You guys should get to know him better." Lu Yunsheng introduced Chen Dashi and others to Che Jianping.

After sending them away, it was already afternoon. Bai Yushu walked up to Lu Yunsheng with a bitter face and said, "So far, 2,500 people have been recruited."

"So fast!" Lu Yunsheng said in surprise.

"Don't be too happy yet. Most of these 2,500 people are cultivators at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, not to mention cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage. There are not even many cultivators at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining. If this continues, who will protect the 2,000 miners?"

Lu Yunsheng frowned upon hearing this, and then asked, "How many people did the Monster Hunting Team recruit today? If it doesn't work, send some people from the Monster Hunting Team over to perform the protection mission first."

"Don't even think about taking advantage of those people. Today, the Monster Hunting Team did recruit more than a dozen cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage, but these cultivators with some strength specifically stated that they would only join the Monster Hunting Team. Even if they agree to go to the spirit vein to protect the miners, they still lack a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage to take charge."

Lu Yunsheng frowned and thought for a moment, as if making some kind of decision. He raised his head and said to Bai Yushu, "How about this, since there are no foundation-building cultivators, then we will train them ourselves. Let's spread the word now that all cultivators who have worked in my Duobao Pavilion for three years will have the opportunity to participate in the internal competition held every three years. The cultivator who wins first place will be awarded a foundation-building pill. As for the foundation-building cultivator who is in charge of the spirit vein, Uncle Hu will take over for the time being, and Fang You will take over Uncle Hu's job. Fang You is not a bad person."

Upon hearing Lu Yunsheng's method, Bai Yushu's eyes lit up. Using Foundation Establishment Pills as rewards was a good idea. Moreover, there was no precedent for such a thing in Tieshan City. As for those big forces, even if they had Foundation Establishment Pills, they would not give them out to reward the cultivators below, but use them to train their own people.

Immediately, Bai Yushu added another line of words on the notice. Suddenly, the people around him went crazy. Some cultivators who were waiting to see what was said, saw the words "Foundation Building Pill" and walked up to fill out the form without hesitation.

Lu Yunsheng still underestimated the appeal of the Foundation Building Pill to these independent cultivators. You have to know that there are millions of cultivators in Tieshan City, and it is estimated that 99% of them are in the Qi Refining Stage. And there are no more than ten Foundation Building Pills that can be seen on the market every year, and nine of these ten fall into the hands of major forces.
