Chapter 117: An Unexpected Change
The Tang family's distinguished guests arrived today, and the entire Tang family was busy.
When Xiao Shi came, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, only to see that the house where Tang Meng lived was hung with happy lanterns and blankets, and most of the Tang family members also changed into new and grand suits, tuxedos or evening dresses, and there were many people waiting in front of the door from afar.
Let's not talk about Xiao Shi, Chu Mengyao's arrival is also a big event for the Tang family.
In the past, because of the difference between the world, the Tang family and the Chu family were not the same kind of people after all, one was the ancient warrior family, and the other was a secular family, there was no intersection and naturally there was no contact, but now it is different.
In addition to Xiao Shi, who is the link between them, because the situation needs to be united, the Tang family to the Chu family, the Chu family to the Tang family, one has someone and one has money, they all hit it off, although today is only the arrival of Chu Mengyao's private nature, the Tang family attaches great importance to it, and Tang Youcai also took this opportunity to be pulled out half-pushed and half-refused.
Da Lao Yuan saw the third grandfather with a black face at a glance, Tang Meng brought a smile on the corner of his mouth, it seems that his worries are superfluous, although the third grandfather has been violently impacted, but he is worthy of being an old man who has seen the wind and waves, and now he is almost coming out.
I only hope that Xiao Shi will stop stimulating him and give the old man a decent look.
Xiao Shi came late, but everyone was waiting for him outside, which made him feel a little unhappy.
"Why are you in such a hurry to buy medicinal herbs today, I heard Mengmeng say that you just asked someone to buy some medicinal herbs not long ago. Chu Mengyao asked Xiao Shi, only to find that the two girls had a dream character in their names.
"The materials I bought last time were not in a reasonable position, some of them were almost used up, and some of them were not. Xiao Shi explained: "This time, a friend was injured, and he needed to use some special medicinal materials to refine the wound medicine tonic. ”
Chu Mengyao sighed, secretly guessing in his heart what the identity of this friend was, could it be that he was also a powerful ancient martial artist?
In the living room, Chu Mengyao was chatting with the people of the Tang family, and Tang Meng sat beside Xiao Shi: "Xiao Shi, Mengyao will go to see my Mengling Villa after a while, do you want to come together?" ”
"Let's talk about it when we have a chance. Xiao Shi didn't want to waste time on these meaningless things, at this time he looked at the Tang family, the older generation and middle-aged men and women who could enter this living room were the majority, and a few juniors were obviously focused on cultivating, including that Tang Shenglong and Tang Jing.
The blood qi is very strong, the living room is full of aura fluctuations, compared to the average ancient martial artist, these people's strength is not bad, especially that Tang Youwu, Xiao Shi looked at him twice, and felt that this person actually had a feeling that he couldn't see through.
"Ling Da's Fighting Invitational Tournament has ended, although Ling Da is disgraced, and the benefits have not been reaped but he has been fishy, but the purpose of all aspects has basically been achieved, and the ancient warriors who appeared in it have been more or less contacted, and the manpower has been replenished, especially on the side of Long Huaishan, it is said that more than 20 ancient warriors have been recruited in one go. ”
Tang Youcai has a wide range of channels because of his identity, he tried his best not to think about this Xiao Shi, and talked about the aftermath of the invitational tournament.
"More than twenty?" Everyone was shocked, and Chu Mengyao's heart sank, what the hell is this Long Huaishan going to do, he recruited so many ancient martial artists, what should they do with the Chu Group?
Do you have to follow the recruitment of manpower, otherwise the business is easily affected, the Chu Group can temporarily retreat in the face of Long Huaishan, but if this person continues to be so strong, they will not be able to sit still.
"When this immortal banquet was first proposed, everyone thought he was arrogant, who would have thought that the ancient warriors under his hands were rolling more and more like a snowball, and there was also news that there was a big backer behind Longhuai Mountain, and now although everyone was uncomfortable, this immortal banquet must be seen by it. Tang Youcai sighed.
Longhuai Mountain's backer?
Xiao Shi couldn't help but think of the opponent who created the tunnel illusion to attack him, could this person be the person he had been waiting to appear, the backer behind Long Huaishan and Luo Chengfeng?
This is not sure, Luo Chengfeng and Long Huaishan have lived long enough, and it is almost time to send them on the road, but the poor two people don't know that they deliberately let them live, and they are still jumping up and down.
According to Xiao Shi's procurement requirements, the people of the Tang family quickly took out a large pile of packaged medicinal materials from the medicine warehouse, Xiao Shi checked it, the quality was basically acceptable, and he accepted it, and the two sides estimated the price, in the appearance of 40 million, this money is not very much, but Xiao Shi can't take it out now, so he offsets the money in the form of refining body soup.
"Is there really such a decoction in the world? it can not only improve the identity of ordinary people, but also change the physique of ancient warriors?"
The Tang family still felt incredible, and at this time, a middle-aged man asked, this person was the big man Tang Gang who swallowed the low-grade Peiyuan Supreme Pill last time.
Tang Youdao shook his head: "There is nothing incredible about this, there have always been qi refiners and ancient martial artists in ancient times, until hundreds of years ago, before the aura of heaven and earth was completely weakened and silent, it can be regarded as a real ancient martial artist, with strong strength, a complete and huge inheritance, many talents, and strong strength." ”
"Today, those of us call ourselves ancient warriors, but we just put gold on our faces, except for a few forces who barely have the inheritance of the past, it is just a virtual appearance, so many things can't be imagined. ”
"For example, alchemist, this is a very common profession in ancient times, although it is also highly respected, but the number is not so rare, and the refining of high-grade pills has always been endless, it is not surprising what kind of pills there are. ”
Tang Shenglong asked, "Grandpa, are there many alchemists with qualifications like Xiao Shi in ancient times, and they can also refine Pei Yuan Dan at such a young age?"
This time, Tang Youcai said with an expressionless face: "Some historical classics say that in ancient times, children in their early tens began to cultivate, and at the age of twenty, they had basically passed the period of Qi cultivation, and since the age of thirty, they have been in the period of building the foundation of the five grades. ”
"The training of alchemists used to be inherited and scaled, and it was by no means as withered as it is today. Tang Youcai didn't say what Xiao Shi was like in ancient times, but everyone understood this explanation, which means that Xiao Shi was nothing in the past.
Chu Mengyao pursed her lips secretly disdainfully, she didn't care if what this person said was true or not, Xiao Shi was already very powerful for her, this old man was deliberately belittling Xiao Shi, who knew what happened before.
Xiao Shi was already in the refining room at this time, the body refining soup was not a troublesome thing, he was going home after refining, the energy pill was refined earlier, Wei Ying's body was cured earlier, he didn't like to procrastinate in doing anything.
Soon, a burst of medicinal smell permeated, there was no fragrance of pills, just the bitter taste of ordinary Chinese medicine, which made some young and middle-aged people of the Tang family outside slightly surprised.
Generally, refining medicine is to know the fragrance and know the medicine, and what has no fragrance is an ordinary Chinese medicine soup, which means that this body refining soup is really just an ordinary medicinal soup, can this thing really come in handy?
It wouldn't be Master Xiao Shi fooling them, it's tens of millions.
Tang Shenglong looked left and right, and found that many people did frown quietly, hesitated again and again, and then expressed the doubts in his heart: "Grandpa, this is really the body refining soup refined by Master Xiao Shi?
Many of the Tang family members had doubts about this, and now that they saw Tang Shenglong say it, they couldn't help but look at Tang Youdao.
Tang Youdao has never seen the body refining soup, but now the attitude of many family members is undoubtedly not very good, don't you hold back if you have questions, you have to ask questions, who knows if Xiao Shi inside can hear it, and there is still Miss Chu sitting here.
The corners of Ah Qing's mouth slightly hooked up a sneer, no wonder this Tang family is such a big family, and dozens of ancient martial artists have not been mixed up to dominate Cloud City, this Tang Shenglong is said to be the leader of the younger generation of the Tang family, but he doesn't even have this bit of city government and wisdom, can such doubts be asked in front of so many people?
Ah Qing herself had felt the changes brought to her by the Body Refining Soup, and as soon as she heard that Xiao Shi was willing to sell it at a unit price of two million, she immediately rushed back to the mountain gate, and her attitude towards the Body Refining Soup could already explain everything.
Tang Meng frowned and glanced at Tang Shenglong, he couldn't say anything, he made up his mind to stay away from this idiot in the future, it seemed that he still hadn't come out of the aura of his talented alchemist apprentice, and he subconsciously caught anything that could be questioned.
"Our Tang family also has its own body refining method and medicinal bath method, if this body refining soup can't be used, you can't use it rashly, it's better to do this, let a few people who do chores try it first, so that you can also avoid risks. ”
Tang Youcai glanced at his own grandson meaningfully, he didn't stand up today to be soft on Xiao Shi, the more he has experienced so many storms in his life, the more he feels that he can't live in vain, if he really admits that Xiao Shi is better than himself, then the qi in his heart will be gone, and it will undoubtedly be more difficult to improve the Danshu in the future.
From the beginning, he was judging the smell of medicine coming out of the medicine refining room, and finally concluded that it was very likely that there was really no mystery, and the medicinal effect would definitely be there, but not to the point of exaggeration, and it would not be even possible to offset tens of millions of medicinal materials for dozens of copies.
He doesn't care about money, but if he can make Xiao Shi suffer a loss, he must be able to completely come out of the shadows.
Seeing that Tang Shenglong and Tang Youcai expressed their positions one after another, everyone in the Tang family looked at each other, and they also talked about it for a while.
Tang Youwu closed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking, but Tang Youdao's brows were already wrinkled, and he opened his mouth to reprimand: "What are you talking about here, Master Xiao Shi can even refine the Wang Dan Supreme Pill, and you are guessing here?"
But his tone can only go so far, after all, even Tang Youcai has spoken, and no matter how strict his tone is, he obviously doesn't take care of his feelings, he is a little annoyed in his heart, he knew that this is the case, he should not have brought the third child out, and it would be bad.
Soon Xiao Shi had already walked out with a clay pot, which was full of thick medicinal juice and exuded a deadly bitter taste, which was the taste of traditional Chinese medicine.
It's just that when he walked out, he found that the people of the Tang family were not as expectant as he imagined, and many people even had doubts in their expressions, which was a bit beyond his imagination.
