Volume 2: Step by Step Lotus Chapter 9: Amen's First Steps
Meng Jie lay limp in Feng Lian's arms, and said weakly: "Brother, it's successful." ”
Jin Blood took the jade bottle from Meng Jie's hand and handed it to Wei Anfu, "Hurry up and take the medicine to save people." ”
Wei Anfu happily held the jade bottle, and after a while, his face was sad, and he said, "What did you promise me just now?"
Feng Lian hugged Mengjie, who was already unconscious, looking at her bloodless face, how could he be in the mood to pay attention to him, and walked to the bedroom upstairs with Mengjie in his arms.
Jin Blood pulled him aside and said, "Brother Wei, you have also seen my sister-in-law's current situation. You go first, wait for me ......"
Wei Anfu didn't wait for Jin Xue to finish speaking, and said firmly: "I'll wait, I've been waiting for so long anyway." Now that the elixir is available, I hope to achieve the best results. ”
Feng Lian put Meng Jie on the bed, and Meng Jie suddenly said, "Brother, help me take out the pill in the sixth jade bottle from the ethereal ring, I want to take it." ”
Feng Lian was distressed for a while, Meng Jie couldn't even take out the pill, and how dry the sea was. For cultivators, the drying up of the sea of consciousness is even worse than the depletion of spirit crystals.
Feng Lian said: "Xiao Jie, you relax, I will help you refine the elixir." ”
The effect of the alchemist taking the pill was actually worse than that of the average cultivator. After dealing with various pills, medicinal herbs, and spiritual materials for a long time, he has developed resistance. Therefore, Feng Lian hopes that through his spiritual flame, Meng Jie can better refine and absorb the elixir.
"Okay. ”
However, Feng Lian's fire attribute aura couldn't enter Meng Jie's body at all. Mengjie is different from Jinxue and others, she is a pure water attribute aura, water and fire are mutually restrictive, and Mengjie's body tries its best to exclude the aura of wind and incorruptibility.
The aura of the gold-blooded people was integrated into the fire attribute aura because of the drop in the mine, and not only did not reject the aura of the wind and cheapness, but also applauded and welcomed. Therefore, he can help Jin Blood and others refine energy crystals, which will not work at all in Mengjie.
Feng Lian suddenly remembered the old saying, "Heaven is fair, give you dry food, but take away your water bottle." ”
Although Mengjie didn't open her eyes, she could sense Feng Lian's frustration and self-blame, and comforted: "Brother, it's okay." I want to get some sleep and wake up. ”
Feng Lian took out the spiritual materials and Xuanjing, and engraved three magic circles that were isolated from the outside world to ensure that Mengjie would not be disturbed, before walking out of her room.
Seeing that Feng Lian's face was as gloomy as before the storm, Golden Blood swallowed back what he was about to say.
Feng Lian saw that Wei Anfu was still standing in the aisle downstairs, and said to Jin Xue: "You help me guard here, and I will help Wei Anfu refine the pill." ”
Jin Xueyi hugged Feng Lian and said happily: "Big brother, I love you to death." ”
The shout of Jin Blood swept away a lot of depression in Feng Lian's heart, "Okay, you can keep this and tell Xu Yanjun later." ”
Jin Blood was full of longing, and said with great sadness: "Four years, there are still four years, I will definitely be able to reach the level of Martial Sect!"
Feng Lian patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on, I'm optimistic about you." Hahaha!"
Wei Anfu walked sneakily and twisted all the way. Let Feng Lian be vigilant.
"Little brother, don't be nervous, I'm guilty, so I have to be cautious. Along the way, Wei Anfu spoke for the first time.
"Sinful body?"
"Ahem, it's a long story, but in order to dispel your concerns, I'll talk to you about it. ”
As Jin Blood guessed, Wei Anfu was indeed a soldier and had served in the Nebula Empire's army.
Six years ago, he came home half an hour late from a mission and found his wife and children lying in a pool of blood. His wife has learned a set of exercises, which can hide her breath and escape the catastrophe. But there are countless scars left on his body, especially Zhihai, who is on the verge of collapse.
Wei Anfu learned that it was the Seventh Prince who participated in the seizure of the throne who ordered the harm to his family, and it took a year to prepare, and with the help of many friends and the Seventh Prince's opponents, he found an opportunity to kill the Seventh Prince with his own hands. He was hunted down by order of the Nebula royal family.
Wei Anfu's reputation in the army has always been good, and he has many friends to help him escape from the Nebula Empire. and gave him countless spiritual materials to be used to heal his wife. The medicinal recipes of the Star Soul Flower and the Tianxiang Pill were all obtained by his friends in the army at a great cost.
Over the years, he took his seriously injured wife to hide in Tibet and seek medical advice. His life was saved, but the pain of losing his son and the serious damage to Zhihai in the previous battle. Her sea of consciousness has been collapsing, and for the past year, she has basically been in a coma.
Two months ago, he heard that a hunter had found a sixth-order infant python in the Yunshui Swamp and was organizing the hunters to hunt it down. The gall of the baby python is the best spiritual material for clearing the heart and eyes and nourishing the sea. He wanted to try his luck and got to this town.
Entering the slum cellar located in a dirty and messy slum, Feng Lian developed a real affection for Wei Anfu.
Wei Anf dressed a dark and damp cellar very warmly and cleanly.
Seeing the middle-aged woman lying on the bed, Feng Lian suddenly remembered his mother and almost didn't cry. Although the lying woman looks older than Wu Yun, she is not as beautiful as Wu Yun. But the motherly aura emanating from her body is exactly the same.
A quarter of an hour after Wei Anfu fed his wife the elixir, Feng Lian slowly crossed a wisp of spiritual energy into her body.
Even those who were so successful were surprised. After thinking about it, I finally understood that attribute aura often suppressed pure attribute-free aura. Mengjie is a pure water attribute aura, and it is the same level of existence as Lingyan, so naturally they do not give in.
Feng Lian slowly refined the elixir, and dragged the medicinal power towards her sea of consciousness.
Her sea of knowledge is really dilapidated. It's like a lake that has been in drought for several years. The riverbed was bare, the ground was cracked, and the corpses and bones of various plants and animals were everywhere.
Feng Lian did not enter her sea of knowledge, which is very immoral behavior after all. He dragged him to the edge of the sea of knowledge and let it inject into the sea of knowledge on his own.
I have to say that the medicinal power of Tianxiang Pill is indeed strong enough, and after only a little injection, the riverbed becomes moist, and there is a kind of atmosphere of recovery of all things.
Regarding Feng Lian's actions, Wei Anfu nodded slightly, revealing a hint of appreciation.
Feng Lian observed her sea of knowledge, although it was dilapidated, it was still possible to see the general outline, which was also round. It seems that Mengjie's Zhihai is really a big problem, what is the reason, Feng Lian naturally can't give an answer.
He could only secretly make up his mind that in the future, he would practice his medicine refining skills hard and refine a few more Tianxiang Pills, so that Mengjie and Golden Blood could take them. Such a good elixir doesn't have to be struck by lightning.
This refining took only a day and a half, and it can be said that with the help of Feng Lian, the entire Tianxiang Pill almost did not waste any medicinal power, and it entered the sea of knowledge. The medicinal power of Tianxiang Pill condensed into layers of mist in the sea of knowledge, and he needed to absorb and refine it himself. He couldn't help anymore.
Feng Lian withdrew his aura and divine sense, and said to Wei Anfu, who had been standing aside and waiting nervously: "It is estimated that Mrs. will wake up in three or five hours." However, you need to recuperate for about half a month before you can move. But in the current situation, it is impossible to return to the original state. Maybe a better way can be found in the future. ”
Wei Anfu said gratefully: "I understand, I understand. As long as I can wake up. More on that later. ”
"Then I'll take my leave. Feng Lian is worried about Mengjie in his heart, and he just wants to leave early.
"Whether you can take a step to speak is about your sect. ”
Looking at Wei Anfu's sincere eyes, Feng Lian stopped.
Wei Anfu knew that Feng Lian was in a hurry, so he asked straight to the point: "I heard Brother Jin Xian say that you want to establish a sect. What do you think a sect needs most? ”
Feng Lian replied directly: "Nature is a person, a talent." ”
"Don't talk about the Eastern Continent, let's just say the Western Continent where we are located, the sect doesn't say tens of thousands, there are always seven or eight thousand. In addition to the three major empires and hundreds of small countries, how many people are left with you a newly established sect? Will they join your sect? What do you use to recruit them, and what do you use to support them......
Wei Anfu asked a lot of questions in one breath, all of which were questions that Feng Lian had not thought about. Even if he thought about it, he might not be able to figure it out.
"Please advise Senior Wei!" Feng Lian was very sincere and gave Wei Anfu a very serious gift.
"Seniors don't dare to be, if you don't dislike it, just like Jin Blood, call me Brother Wei." ”
"Okay, Brother Wei, please give me a lot of advice. ”
Wei Anfu was no longer polite, pulled Feng Lian to sit down, and told him his ideas.
Wei Anfu served as a general in the Nebula Empire for twenty years, and was transferred by the Emperor to the Nebula Empire's most mysterious unit, the Shadow, as a deputy commander forty years ago. The emperor is also the commander.
The Shadow's only job is to collect and analyze all kinds of information. Therefore, Wei Anfu's command is an absolute elite. Not only in terms of combat power, but also in the world. This is also the reason why he has so many precious medicinal materials.
He can use his resources to recruit people for Feng Lian. At the same time, an intelligence organization belonging to Amen was established.
When his wife wakes up, he will take her to Lucheng, the border of the Eastern and Western Continents.
Lucheng, also known as the Lost Paradise, the Land of the Damned, etc. It is the only place in the entire Shenwu Continent that all empires, sects, and families cannot touch. So it was the best refuge for their husband and wife. It is also a refuge for many cultivators who are unable to gain a foothold elsewhere.
Most of the people there are homeless or homeless cultivators, so it is easier to recruit. And those who can go to Lucheng and still live will not be ordinary people.
Once there, he will do his best to recruit and train people who can control them, and serve as the foundation of the Amen intelligence organization. Shoot when Amen needs it, expand Amen's influence, and increase Amen's popularity.
Of course, the first condition is that Feng Lian has to find a place that really belongs to Amen and establish a sect.
Wei Anfu also mentioned that if you want to make Amen really bigger, you need to have the Purple Silence Token recognized and issued by the Senate in the Eastern Continent.
Possessing the Purple Silence Token means that the strength of the sect is recognized by the entire continent. You can walk unhindered on the mainland, excluding Lucheng, of course.
When trading with major families, sects, and empires, you can get the fairest price.
The most important thing is to have at least one seat in the Senate.
The Senate was formed by the union of major families, sects, empires, including the Spirit Clan, and later the three major empires of the Western Continent withdrew from the Senate for various reasons. But it did not affect the prestige of the Senate.
The Senate would hold a general meeting every three hundred years to discuss the direction of development and the distribution of benefits among the cultivators of the entire continent. Needless to say, the status of the sect has a seat.
Within three years of Wei Anfu's proposal, Feng Lian provided him with a total of 600 mortal-level Gathering Spirit Pills and Blood Returning Pills.
When Feng Lian heard this, he immediately couldn't sit still, six hundred? He and Mengjie didn't eat or sleep, refining medicine day and night, and according to the success rate of 60 percent, how could they have to practice for a year.
In the end, Wei Anfu took a step back and reduced it by a hundred. But it had to be, because Lucheng was chaotic and everywhere was a battlefield. What is most lacking is the pill, he wants to recruit people, and the pill is the best gift.
As for the medicinal materials and spiritual materials needed to refine the pill, the first thirty were solved by Feng Lian himself, and he would solve them later.
Wei Anfu saw that Feng Lian's face was more bitter than bitter gourd, and comforted him and said that this batch of pills was not only to attract people, but also to establish Amen's funds.
Feng Lian can only grit his teeth and respond. There is no reason to want to gain without paying.
Finally, Wei Anfu proposed that within ten years, Fenglian must establish Amen. Within twenty years, find someone to take his place, and give him the status of a guest secretary, so that he and his wife have a place to retire. If conditions permit, give him a few more Tianxiang pills.
If Feng Lian does not meet the requirements within this time, he can only give up.
For Wei Anfu's request, Feng Lian naturally would not refuse, this is not a requirement at all, but what he must do.
Seeing that Feng Lian agreed, Wei Anfu took out a golden token, lifted the self-destruction circle inside, and took back the divine consciousness he had placed in it.
Hand the token to Feng Liandao: "This is the special token for the Shadow." If you encounter an unsolvable problem in the Nebula Empire. Tap this position three times and someone will help you out. This token can only be used repeatedly under the guidance of my divine sense. You can only use it once, and don't use it indiscriminately until you have to. Shadows are useful, don't waste them, remember. ”
A blood oath appeared in front of Feng Lian's eyes, Wei Anfu knelt down on one knee, and said solemnly: "From now on, I will be Amen's disciple." The doorman Wei Anfu visited the doorman. ”
Feng Lian hurriedly helped him up, collected the oath blood, and said, "This matter is decided." I'm going to go back and see Xiaojie quickly. Sister-in-law can come to me at any time if there is any situation. ”
Wei Anfu put an ethereal ring in Feng Lian's hand and said, "No, I'll leave in a while." The Shadows aren't monolithic, and I'm afraid they'll find me. It is best to rush to Lucheng as soon as possible. ”
"Okay, I wish you a safe journey. ”
Wei Anfu sent Feng Lian out of the alley before returning to the cellar.
"Xiao An, I want to drink some water. "As soon as I entered the cellar, I heard my wife calling. Wei Anfu almost didn't fall.
"Swallow, you're awake, come, drink slowly. Wei Anfu picked up the swallow and saw a few strands of silver appear above her head, and tears couldn't stop falling.
"Woke up for a while. You just believe in him?"
Wei Anfu sighed and said sadly: "In the past, I was careful in everything I did, and I only dared to do it after thinking about it. I'm afraid I'll choke myself to death even when I drink water. But what happened? So I decided to take a gamble. ”
"Why him?"
"Do you remember the first case I was transferred to the Shadows forty years ago?"
"You mean the missing piece of ...... in the palace?"
Wei Anfu interrupted Yanzi and said, "You can steal things from the heavily guarded palace without leaving the slightest trace." After the fact, he continued to provoke the empire. But we can't do anything about him. I always had the feeling that this young man had something to do with him. ”
Swallow asked, "What does it matter?"
"I don't know, it's just intuition. Whatever, if you decide to gamble anyway, what does it matter? I am really optimistic about him, young, sincere, and his eyes are spotless, how many people are like this in the world? The two young couples are both alchemists, and they will have great achievements in the future. ”
"How's my daughter?"
"They came to the news, saying that they could be sealed for twenty years, and now almost a year has passed. I now put my hope on the two of them. ”
"So you gave him twenty years?"
"Think of it as my reward for him. ”
"What about those pills?"
"I have to put pressure on them, the status and appeal of the alchemist are several orders higher than the rank. And I do need the elixir, otherwise it would be easier said than done to set up another shadow in ten years. ”
"In case ......"
"There is no case, and even if there is, it is what you man should consider. You should have a good rest now, and refine the elixir first. ”
