The next day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Zhou Liang, who left the mountains and forests of the Demon Domain, returned to Yuhua Mountain with a few packages on his back, and he went straight to Xiuzhenfang City on the mountainside.

In a material shop.

Zhou Liang threw all the packages in his hand on the counter, and then opened them, immediately attracting the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper to come over.

It's been a long time since I've seen such a big business.

After a stick of incense, the materials in Zhou Liang's package were finally priced.

"This young man, the old man has counted it, a total of six thousand nine hundred taels of silver!"

The white-bearded shopkeeper touched his long beard and looked at Zhou Liang with a smile.

Six thousand nine hundred taels!

Although Zhou Liang was mentally prepared, he didn't expect that there would be so many.

After all, he has grown so big, and the most money he has ever seen is only two hundred taels!

Moreover, the small package in his arms also contained more valuable materials for the white-fronted tiger.

"In this way, I'll add a hundred taels and make up enough seven thousand taels for you, which can be regarded as making a friend. ā€

The old shopkeeper looked at Zhou Liang with a smile.

"Okay. ā€

Zhou Liang knew what the other party had in mind, it was nothing more than for a long-term cooperative relationship in the future.

Soon, a stack of thick silver tickets was handed over to Zhou Liang. Counting the tickets in his hand, Zhou Liang felt indescribable satisfaction in his heart.

"Actually, I still have some things, I don't know if you can take them, from the demon beast. ā€

Touching the small package in his arms, Zhou Liang hesitated for a moment, and finally asked.

"Do you have the goods on you?"

The old shopkeeper's old eyes shot a gleam, and his gaze swept over the bulging place in Zhou Liang's arms.

"Of course. ā€

Zhou Liang was very refreshed, took out the small package, and spread it out, revealing the contents inside.

Suddenly, a demonic aura emanated from the package, causing the surrounding air to stagnate.

"White-fronted tiger!"

The old shopkeeper's face changed drastically, and his eyes showed a look of shock.

The shopkeeper next to him was even more unbearable, his eyes were terrified, and his whole body trembled like chaff. There's no way, this shopkeeper is just a mortal, where can he stand the shock of demonic energy.

The old shopkeeper was still well-informed, so he swept the contents of the package, then rewrapped the package and issued his own offer:

"Eighteen thousand taels!"

Hearing this price, the shopkeeper, who had just returned to normal, was stunned again, and his jaw almost fell to the ground, because he had been in the store for so long and had never seen such a big deal!

"Okay, it's 18,000!"

Zhou Liang also had some market conditions again, so he naturally knew that the price given by the shopkeeper was fair. And his heart was filled with surging joy at this time, this time the harvest was great, with so much silver, he could afford to buy good medicinal materials for breakthroughs.

Zhou Liang is in a good mood!

Soon, he left here with a silver ticket of 25,000 taels.

After a cup of tea, Zhou Liang appeared in front of one of the largest pharmacies in Xiuzhenfang City.

"Senior Sister Lan'er, are you still satisfied with the mink coat you just bought?"

As soon as he entered the pharmacy, a male voice came from behind him that he would never forget.

Zhou Liang turned his head, and sure enough, he saw a familiar man and a woman.

The man is dignified, and at the age of seventeen or eighteen, he exudes a sword-like aura, as if he can even pierce the sky.

Next to her, a girl in an orchid skirt snuggled in her arms, looking well-behaved and cute.

Sure enough, it was these two people......

Zhou Liang clenched his fists, these two people were Zhang Jianren and Xinlan.

"Brother Zhou Liang. ā€

Xinlan's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she left Zhang Jianren's shoulder without a trace.

Zhou Liang just smiled without smiling, and then walked towards the counter of the pharmacy.

"It's arrogant, but what is he doing here? Does he have any money? Any medicinal herb here is not something he can afford!"

Zhang Jianren looked disdainful and said sarcastically.

Xinlan didn't speak, but she also knew that Zhang Jianren's analysis was reasonable, and the medicinal materials here were indeed not something that Zhou Liang, an ordinary outer disciple, could afford.

And Zhang Jianren is different, his elders, several of them are real people in the foundation building period, and they are high-level people in the Xinyun Sect, and they have strong economic strength.

This is also the fundamental reason why she gave up Zhou Liang and chose Zhang Jianren.

Zhou Liang didn't pay attention to Zhang Jianren's sarcasm, he knew that now was not the time to be rash, and he and Zhang Jianren would have a day when they would settle the general account! Today's sarcasm will be recorded in the account for the time being!

He came to the counter of the pharmacy and scanned the precious herbs in the counter.

"The period of qi training is the stage of strengthening the muscles and bones, boiling the qi and blood, and the qi and blood are strong to a certain extent, so that it is possible to comprehend the true qi of Taoism!

Zhou Liang chose for a long time, and finally found the right direction.

The effect of Polygonum multiflorum is related to the year of growth, the longer the year, the natural effect is good, and of course the price is more expensive.

However, Zhou Liang also knows the truth of "void is not replenished", He Shou Wu, who is too long, will not be able to absorb it at all during the Qi training period, but will have the risk of exploding.

"Senior Brother Jianren, if I can take a two-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu plant, I may be able to quickly cultivate to the peak of the middle stage of Qi cultivation. ā€

Zhou Liang was selecting medicinal materials, when there was a coquettish anger from Xinlan behind him, which used to belong to him alone......

"I'm afraid not, I recently need to buy precious medicinal materials to assist me in cultivating Daoist True Qi, so I can only buy you a hundred years old. ā€

Zhang Jianren said undoubtedly.

"A hundred years is a hundred years, and it's okay. ā€

Xinlan smiled flatteringly, something is better than nothing, isn't it?

But at this moment, a familiar and indifferent voice on the counter in front of me: "Shopkeeper, two two-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu and one three-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu, pack them for me." ā€

At this time, many people in the pharmacy were attracted by this generous voice.

It turned out to be him!

Xinlan looked at Zhou Liang, who was standing at the counter and talking to the shopkeeper, and had a strange feeling as if she was in a different world, is he still the one I am familiar with?

"Can he afford a three-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu?"

Zhang Jianren immediately sneered, he didn't believe that Zhou Liang had this financial resources at all.

Indeed, it is really impossible for an ordinary outer disciple of the Xinyun Sect to be able to afford a three-hundred-year-old portion of He Shou Wu.

"Okay, Shaoxia, you buy more, give you some discounts, two two-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu, one three-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu, a total of seven thousand taels for you. ā€

The shopkeeper saw that Zhou Liang's tone did not look like a master who was short of money, so he simply removed a fraction of the price.

Subsequently, in full view of everyone, Zhou Liang took out the silver ticket to pay the bill, and took the three He Shou Wu into his arms.

In an instant, the sneer on Zhang Jianren's face froze.

"No...... No way!"

Xinlan's beautiful eyes showed shock, and she looked at Zhou Liang and was stunned for a while.

After Zhou Liang put away He Shouwu, he smiled faintly at the stunned Zhang Jianren and Xinlan, and then left in a dashing manner.

When Zhou Liang smiled, Xinlan's smile in response was very stiff and unnatural, and she even lowered her head and didn't dare to meet Zhou Liang's gaze...... I left him, and he was better off than I was......

Leaving the pharmacy, Zhou Liang did not return to Xinyun Sect, but found a restaurant in Xiuzhenfang City and opened a guest room to live in.

He closed the door, meditated cross-legged, and looked inwardly at his body.

After careful inspection, he found that the qi and blood in his body were more vigorous, and it seemed that the experience in the mountains and forests of the Demon Domain in the past few days had taken effect.

At this time, Zhou Liang had already reached the peak of the middle stage of Qi training, and he was only half a step away from the late stage.

"Now, if you want to take the last step faster, you have to rely on He Shou Wu!"

Zhou Liang took out a two-hundred-year-old He Shou Wu, looked expectant, and then devoured He Shou Wu in a few bites.

Soon, He Shou Wu turned into boiling medicine in Zhou Liang's body, impacting his limbs and bones, making his skin red, as if the blood in his body was boiling, and there was a danger of explosion at any time.

"That's amazing!"

Zhou Liang was cautious and tried his best to run the "Qi and Blood Handling Gong", vigorously absorbing this violent medicinal power, strengthening qi and blood, and refining muscles and bones.

Zhou Liang took He Shou Wu, two hundred and two servings, the price was not expensive, but the medicinal power was indeed very sufficient, allowing him to refine and absorb it all night.

As soon as the sky was polished, Zhou Liang opened his eyes from meditation, and suddenly his eyes shot a divine light, exuding a burst of momentum that reigned over the world.

"Isn't it ......"

Zhou Liang felt that a fierce tiger was dormant in his body, and as long as he woke up, he would be able to fight in all directions.

Boom!

He slammed his fist into the wall, and suddenly cracks appeared in the hard wall, and dust fell, leaving only a clear fist mark.

"This is the power that only exists in the late stage of Qi training!"
