Chapter 15 The mountain rain is coming
The moment Fang Yourong saw the token, his brain seemed to explode in an instant, and he was a little dizzy.
His figure couldn't help but shake twice, and he almost fell directly, so he could only hurriedly hold on to the tea table. He closed his eyes and rubbed his temples, then looked at Shen Lu again.
Seeing his exaggerated appearance, Shen Lu threw the sign on the tea table and said, "You may suspect that it is fake, but it is better to take a closer look." ”
"Fake?" Fang Yourong smiled bitterly twice, his voice was much weaker, and he muttered, "How can anyone in this world dare to imitate the token of the Priesthood Guild." One is that there is no such smelting technology, and the other is that once the clerical guild finds out that someone has forged an identity, it will definitely hunt down the other party to the ends of the earth. No one dared to forge the identity of a clergyman, let alone a rare identity like a five-star brewery. ”
Fang Yourong's words seemed to be explaining to Shen Lu, but he was actually explaining to himself. He really couldn't believe that a sixteen-year-old boy could become a five-star priest.
"How is it possible, how is it possible?" Fang Yourong held his head and struggled for a long time, then raised his head sharply, looked at Shen Lu and said, "By the way! When I went to the union today, I saw a request to make water cloud liquid on the task list! I thought the headquarters sent a mistake, where would someone brew this thing in our little Snow City...... Did it send it to you?"
Shen Lu said angrily: "When I was in the assessment, I brewed Shuiyun liquid, and these guys are still addicted to it." ”
Fang Yourong no longer doubted this. After pondering for a while, he suddenly clenched his fists and bowed his head, and said humbly: "Lord City, my old thing is really blind today. If there is anything offensive in the words just now, I hope that I can Haihan. ”
Shen Lu smiled and said, "Boss Fang was very kind to me just now, why apologize? If I am angry with you, I will definitely not tell you my true identity." ”
"Does the city lord mean that you want to cooperate with me and take control of this Snowy City?"
"The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. No matter how high my status as a priest is, it is impossible for others to directly hand over this city. ”
Fang Yourong nodded approvingly: "Your analysis is very correct. City guard Yin Qiansheng is a ruthless character who will never give in because of your identity. The power of the Heavenly Dao Gang is also extremely powerful, and if it really pushes them into a hurry, it may really cause trouble. ”
"What about you, what kind of tendency is the person who holds the absolute economic lifeblood of Snowy City?" Shen Lu finally asked this key sentence.
Fang Yourong glanced at the five-star priesthood order again, and said with a long sigh: "If I say that I have no ambition, it will naturally be false. Yin Qiansheng has been making more and more small moves recently, and it seems that he has long been unable to tolerate the existence of the Heavenly Dao Gang and our family. Without ambition, sooner or later it will be swallowed up by him. ”
Shen Lu continued his words and said: "Seeking skin with a tiger is naturally this kind of endless end. That's why I'm going to tell who I am, and I hope you can help me. If I become the lord of the city, you will still be in control of the city's economy, and your position will never be threatened. ”
"Why do I trust you? Why do you trust me?"
"With your daughter, Fang Lan. ”
Shen Lu's face sank, and he said coldly: "Although you didn't directly rebel six years ago, you were able to control the economy of the entire city in just six years, do you dare to say that you haven't seized what belongs to my father? I have never trusted you, and I will be the same in the future." The reason why I am willing to talk so much nonsense with you is because I just learned that you are Fang Lan's father. Fang Lan is the only person in the world who is willing to treat me as a friend without knowing my identity. With this alone, I won't hurt the people of your Fang family, and I don't want her to be hurt in any way. ”
Fang Yourong felt weak for a while when he heard this. Because it is indeed as Shen Lu said, although Fang Yourong did not directly participate in the rebellion, he also took advantage of the chaos to encroach on many family businesses belonging to the Shen family.
After thinking about it for a while, Fang Yourong slapped the tea table as if he had made up his mind and said, "Okay, Lord City, I hope we have a happy cooperation." On the day when you truly restore your status as the city lord, I will return all the things that originally belonged to your Shen family. ”
Shen Lu also promised: "You will still be the richest man in Snowy City in the future." In the future, Snow City will become the most prosperous city in the world. ”
......
In the evening, Baili Sect, the sect master's practice room.
Shen Lu began to briefly tell Dugu Yiyi what happened today.
Speaking of He Jiangyi's provocation, Dugu Yiyi frowned and said: "This He family's father and son are really too deceitful! They want to win over Baili Sect, so they keep hinting that they want me to marry that He Jiangyi." After I sternly refused, the two of them began to spread rumors about the Baili Sect and me. ”
Shen Lu was stunned, and then he understood why He Jiangyi suddenly took the initiative to provoke, it turned out that there was still this relationship.
"That crooked melon and jujube thing dares to beat my good apprentice's idea? In the future, I will definitely castrate this kid if I have the chance." ”
Seeing that Shen Lu's anger didn't look like he was pretending, Yiyi was overjoyed, and couldn't help but move the chair to Shen Lu's side. After rubbing to Shen Lu's side, he whispered: "Master loves me so much, then what kind of person do you think I should marry, and you are satisfied?"
"At least it's the kind that's only slightly worse than me. Shen Lu said seriously.
"That person is going to be lonely for the rest of his life. ”
After a few jokes, Shen Lu told him how to teach He Jiangyi a lesson and how to cooperate with Fang Yourong.
Yiyi was shocked by Shen Lu's series of operations, and said in disbelief: "I didn't expect Fang Yourong to be such an arrogant person, and he would also look at the master differently. I often met him in the union, and although he didn't think much of us one-star and two-star clergy, he was very loyal to the union and took the hierarchy of the clergy very seriously. Seeing Master's identity as a five-star winemaker, he should have been convinced. ”
"Whether he is convinced or not, it is a win-win situation anyway. Since he is a successful businessman, he should know what is best for him. ”
"Fang Yourong really doesn't have to worry too much, it's just that a third-rate gang like the Heavenly Dao Gang has no bottom line in doing things. If they retaliate, Master should be careful. ”
Shen Lu smiled and said, "You don't think I have a bottom line in doing things, do you? They really use righteous and bright means to deal with me, but they are not good for me." It's best to use yin tricks, so that I can be more at ease when I fight back. ”
On the way back to his room, Shen Lu thought a lot. The first is that he sabotaged the plan of the city guard Yin Qiansheng, and the second is that he openly humiliated the Heavenly Dao Gang. It is equivalent to saying that they have now offended the two major forces in Snowy City at the same time, and it is impossible for them to have no follow-up means of revenge.
The so-called mountain rain is coming, and he still has to become stronger before he is qualified to meet the moves. And if you can take advantage of the situation to deal a serious blow to the two forces, your chances of regaining Paradise City will increase a lot in the future.
Glancing at the system panel, he still has the strength of the Ming Obscurity Realm Eightfold, which is far from enough!
If you want to increase your combat power in the short term, you still have to use the old method: winemaking.
In the next few days, every late at night, a faint fragrance would fill the Baili Sect everywhere. Anyone who smells these scents will feel extremely cool and comfortable, and even the quality of sleep has improved a lot.
This fragrance comes from Shen Lu's animal bone wine made from fluorescent animal bones. When this wine was baked for the first time, there was a total of ten catties. But because there were too many beast bones, and Shen Lu was in a hurry to cultivate, he brewed all of them, resulting in too many impurities in the wine, which was not pure enough, and it was difficult to achieve the purpose of helping cultivation.
So Shen Lu brewed it twice and three times. Each time the liquor is brewed, it goes through processes such as craft brewing, distillation, refrigeration, and hot rolling. By the time the three brewing was completed, there was only one pound of beast bone wine left. After sealing the Ten Year Altar, it only needs to be sealed for another ten days or so, and the power of the beast bone will be fully activated.
Just the day after the brewing was completed, Shen Lu was still asleep, and suddenly the door was kicked open, and a violent voice shouted: "Little Liuzi, get up for me!"
Shen Lu stayed up all night for several days, and finally had time to rest, and was woken up by such an inexplicable wake-up, so he got up impatiently and said, "Who, so unqualified." ”
Looking up, it was actually Mu Chen, Dugu Yiyi's eldest apprentice. After all, this man is still his own disciple.
"It turned out to be Senior Brother, what are you looking for me?" Shen Lu yawned and got up, very unhappy to get dressed.
"From now on, I am not allowed to teach Senior Sister Fang to practice calligraphy. After Mu Chen dropped a sentence, he turned around and left directly, without even explaining a word.
Shen Lu was inexplicable, he hurriedly got dressed and chased out of the door, stopped the angry Mu Chen and asked, "Senior brother, you make it clear, why do you say that." ”
Without waiting for Mu Chen to explain, Fang Lan had already hurried to the two of them.
"Mu Chen! I already said that I made a mistake by myself carelessly, and Shen ...... It has nothing to do with Xiao Liuzi, why can't you understand people?" Fang Lan said angrily, and pushed Mu Chen with his left hand.
However, Shen Lu found that her right hand was hanging low unnaturally, and there was a strong smell of medicine around her.
Shen Lu grabbed Fang Lan's wrist and wanted to see her right hand. Fang Lan subconsciously shrank a few times, seeing that Shen Lu was extremely persistent, he could only raise his arm obediently for him to see.
The palm of Fang Lan's right hand had become charred black at this time, and some places were even more bloody and fleshy, which was very scary. Although it was treated simply and some trauma medicine was applied, it was only a temporary stop to the bleeding.
When Shen Lu taught her to write, he would occasionally grab her hand to help her write, and he knew very well how white and beautiful her hands were. Now that he has suffered such a serious injury, even if he heals in the future, it may affect the veins of his right hand. It can leave a horrific scar at best, and at worst it is equal to half a disability.
Thinking of what Mu Chen said angrily just now, Shen Lu couldn't help asking, "Could it be that I taught you to write wrongly, and then the spell backfired?"
