Chapter 124: Silent Compromise

"Xiao Shi, how can you see that my fourth grandfather is running out of time?"

Between the thoughts and thoughts, Chu Mengyao decisively opened her mouth to change the topic, hoping to eliminate the contradiction.

Xiao Shi said lightly: "There is a black gas in front of the forehead of the old thing, you can find it if you look closely, what can't be found in this, if it is a person with a normal IQ, in the face of an alchemy master like me who can refine the energy pill, he should be respectful, especially when it comes to the safety of his own life." ”

"It shows that the worry about your life has affected the IQ of your fourth grandfather. ”

Chu Yunzheng was helped up by his family at this time, and suddenly heard Xiao Shi comment on himself like this, his straight brows jumped, but he bit his lip tightly and refused to say a word.

Inferior skills made him feel ashamed, being so humiliated by a young man, and made him feel sad, I hated that when I was young, I drank wine and ate meat in a big bowl, and I was so embarrassed today.

The years are really the most ruthless.

Chu Yunqi, a thin old man, glanced at his eldest brother's attitude, and found that he was expressionless, as if he had not been affected by this accident at all, so he had to endure the evil anger in his heart and slammed the table with his fist.

He stretched out his hand and swept it, and the blood sprayed on the table was rolled up by an invisible force, and finally condensed into a ball of blood and was thrown outside, and his own family member helped with the follow-up treatment.

"Xiao Shi, although our Chu family's medicine depot is not as good as the Tang family, it will not be much less, otherwise you go and choose as much as you want, the extra medicinal materials are our remuneration, in addition, you can also make a price in terms of money, and we will also prepare the medicine furnace for you, you help our Chu family refine a furnace of pills, we can take one, what do you think?"

Chu Yunxiong opened his mouth and said.

Brothers and sisters are connected, the four of them have lived together for a lifetime, and the degree of affection is not comparable to anything, but Chu Yunxiong is also annoyed that the fourth brother doesn't know what to do, he didn't see that he invited Xiao Shi over so grandly, your reckless behavior almost ruined today's matter.

There is a lesson of the Tang family in front of him, this Xiao Shi will take revenge, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Tang family to find a pill in the future, I have told a few brothers a few times beforehand, this fourth child is still so impulsive, what can he do?

"Is that so?" Xiao Shi didn't know what he was thinking, but he was not in a hurry to express his position, and the other group of people in the Chu family were secretly anxious.

"Why is this Xiao Shi so careful, isn't he Meng Yao's bodyguard? Isn't it our duty to refine the pill for our Chu family? ”

A little farther away, Lin Xue whispered to her husband that she was Chu Jiangyun's right-hand man in the business field, and in the previous twenty years, she assisted Chu Jiangyun in managing the Chu Group in an orderly manner, and she was a rare shopping mall elite.

In addition, the maintenance is excellent, like a girl in her early forties, and the average beauty is really indistinguishable, and the temperament is even more outstanding, and it has a lot of popularity in Yuncheng and even in the province, and has a lot of pumps.

Chu Jiangyun glanced at his wife, opened his mouth but couldn't speak.

This Xiao Shi is obviously close to Meng Yao with a purpose, with his ability, how much salary does the Chu family have to pay to keep him under normal circumstances? Don't you see that people don't even sell the face of a few old people, and they will turn their faces when they say that they will turn their faces.

Lin Xue's knowledge is still too narrow, and he still doesn't know the horror of the ancient martial artists, but it is no wonder that several old people of the Chu family usually live in seclusion, and Yuncheng has been peaceful on the surface over the years, and there are very few ordinary people who can see the ancient martial artists take action.

Chu Yunxiong sighed: "The fourth child just suffered the loss of impulsive and fiery personality, when he was young, he was brave and ruthless, he just wanted to be free and easy, and he didn't care about right and wrong, so that there were many dark injuries on his body, and the older he was, the more symptoms he fell when he was young, otherwise under normal circumstances, he would never be like this." ”

When Chu Yunzheng heard his eldest brother's words, his heart was also sad, wasn't he like this when he was young, he had a smooth and happy life back then, but he had countless bitter fruits to eat when he was old, and he was far more than ten years earlier than his brothers, and he was unwilling in his heart.

"This has nothing to do with me, since the Chu family's medicine depot is open to me, I will definitely go in and search for it, as for money, it will be exempted for the sake of Mr. Chu's face. ”

"When the new energy pill is released, I will leave two for you. ”

Xiao Shi said, hearing this, everyone in the Chu family breathed a sigh of relief, although this Xiao Shi's temper is really not popular, but now it is the best result.

Lin Xue frowned and looked at Xiao Shi, the more she looked at it, the more uncomfortable she felt in her heart, she could also see that this Xiao Shi was probably ill-intentioned when he approached his daughter, and had other purposes, but there was no part of her own opening here.

Unable to sit still, she simply confessed to Chu Yunxiong and hurriedly walked upstairs, Chu Yunxiong waved his hand impatiently, driving away other ordinary people, including Chu Jiangyun, and now only ancient warriors were left in the entire hall.

And they changed rooms, and came to a private courtyard at the back, where incense was lit, and some of the shelves were lined with old thread-bound books, which was obviously not a place for young people to break into.

"The medicinal properties of the energy pill are violent, it is not suitable for him, I am afraid that the effect of the medicine will be too strong for a while, and he will die suddenly on the spot, so he must use other drugs to make up for the deficit in his body and energy in advance. ”

Xiao Shi said, at this time, there were several medicine stoves in front of him for him to choose from.

Several medicine stoves were no different from the previous one in his hand, the quality level was about the same, but the style and casting time were different, and he chose a triangular tripod.

At this time, Chu Mengyao personally led people to take the packaged medicines out of the medicine warehouse in bundles and piled them up in this private courtyard for Xiao Shi to choose.

Xiao Shi didn't expect that Chu Yunxiong's words just now were still too modest, the Chu family's medicine depot was not as good as the Tang family as he said, I am afraid it was even better than the Tang family.

He frowned and glanced at the four old men.

This Chu Yunzheng, who was almost killed by himself, can also be excluded, and the thin old man Chu Yunqi can also be excluded, and the other elegant old man seems to be an ordinary person, but he has been staying here, and it seems that he is well hidden, and he is also an ancient martial artist, but after Xiao Shi's observation, the other party's spiritual power does not fluctuate much.

Then it is very likely that the alchemist is Chu Yunxiong himself, or the other people of the Chu family who did not show up, otherwise it would not be reasonable to explain that they kept so many cherished Chinese herbs.

Xiao Shi said that it was looting, but in the end, it also gave the Chu family face, and he did not plunder it on a large scale, except for the necessary medicinal materials of the Energy Pill, he only selected some of what he needed.

A few old men who had been nervous were a little surprised, they thought they were going to be killed hard, but they didn't expect Xiao Shi to be ruthless in the end, and retained a huge amount of leeway, most of the medicinal materials were intact, and they didn't even look at it twice, so that although the Chu family's medicine depot was moved, the loss was still within the bearable range.

The four of them were a little embarrassed, but Chu Mengyao showed a hint of a smile, and secretly raised her eyebrows at Xiao Shi, looking like you were doing a good job.

"I'll make a furnace of body refining soup now, and after the energy pill is refined, I will ask Meng Yao to bring it back to you. ”

Xiao Shi also ignored a few people anymore, snapped his fingers, bang, and a flame ignited out of thin air and began to bake the bottom of the medicine furnace.

"Do you want my help?"

Chu Mengyao remembered the scene last time she helped refine Pei Yuan Dan and asked Xiao Shi.

"No, the refining soup is just an ordinary Chinese medicine, just make it casually. Xiao Shi shook his head, controlled the flames to fully bake and preheat the entire bottom of the medicine furnace, and began to summon some common medicinal herbs into the medicine furnace one by one.

Xiao Shi didn't shy away from them when he was refining this body refining soup, the four old men stopped talking, staring at Xiao Shi's movements tightly, and their hearts were beating.

The more Chu Yunzheng looked at it, the more solemn his heart became, Xiao Shi summoned it casually, and he could let the medicinal materials be ingested into the medicine furnace out of thin air, just like having a hand to grasp it out of thin air, this is a kind of magical power that can control things to a very high level, he can't understand it at all, let alone do it.

Only Chu Yunxiong seemed to see what clues, Xiao Shi saw that the hand hidden in his sleeve seemed to be following the movement, and couldn't help but smile, it seemed that there was a chance that he would not have to run, this Chu Yunxiong was really an alchemist, it was really hidden, and such a secret had been kept for so many years.

Soon the lid of the stove was closed with a bang, and there was silence in the courtyard, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and the scene became a little awkward.

"Xiao Shi, didn't you say that you were going to give Ah Qing an energy pill? Don't forget it when the time comes. Chu Mengyao reminded a little uneasy.

Tonight, she realized how important the energy pill was, she was able to save the life of the fourth grandfather, and for the sake of this energy pill in the family, she even moved out of the medicine warehouse for him to choose at will!

Then Ah Qing's energy pill must not be out of tune, otherwise he will die, and Ah Qing doesn't know if he will cry to death.

"I know, by the way, Old Man Chu, do you know A-Qing's Benlei Gate?"

Xiao Shi replied to Chu Mengyao, and suddenly asked Chu Yunxiong.

Chu Yunxiong was slightly stunned, and said, "Of course I know, I also visited Benleimen, what's the matter, are you interested in it?"

Xiao Shi said with a smile: "I'm not interested in Benlei Gate, but I'm very interested in its medicine storehouse, after all, it is a serious mountain gate, although your Chu family has so many medicinal materials, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to Benlei Gate, right?"

Chu Yunxiong raised his eyebrows: "Yes, our Tibetan medicine is indeed very small, far from being comparable to Benleimen, what do you mean?"

"The Cangyang faction has ransacked the medicine depot of Benleimen, I am now in short supply of medicinal materials, I want to fight the idea of this Cangyang faction, grab some medicinal materials and come back to fight the autumn wind, I don't know what you think?"

"Robbing a mountain gate to fight the autumn wind?"

A few old people almost bit their tongues, why is this Xiao Shi so arrogant? Although Benlei Gate is weak, it is also an ancient warrior of the Mountain Gate, and the Cangyang faction is even stronger than it, and its strength can be imagined, if you want to rob others, is it not afraid of being beaten?

"Forget it, let's get back to it. ”

Xiao Shi shook his head, knowing that these people were frightened by their own remarks, it was normal to think about it, there were only a few ancient martial artists in their family, and almost all of the juniors were ordinary people, what was the same as Chu Mengyao, an ancient martial artist seedling baby, where did he dare to go against a powerful mountain gate?
