At dawn, the Ji family came to the north gate of Bailian City.

Young Master Ji Yunyi, who came from the county seat of Hedong County, wanted to go back, and Ji Changlie took everyone to see him off.

As a descendant of the younger generation of the Ji family in Bailian City, Ji Fan naturally wanted to come, he stood in the crowd, silently looking at the valuable carriage.

"If the girl comes back, please help me tell me that I have gone back in advance, please forgive her. ”

After Ji Yunyi said such a sentence to Ji Fan, he entered the carriage of the carriage.

The hunchbacked old man drove the carriage along the straight road to the north.

The speed of the two silver wildebeests was extremely fast, and everyone only watched for twenty breaths, and the carriage disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Whew!"

Many Ji family members took a long breath of turbidity, looking relieved.

These days, because Ji Yunyi is in the house, everyone is very cautious, for fear of the slightest omission, and dare not relax at all.

"Let's all go back!"

Ji Changlie waved his hand and took the lead in returning to the city.

Ji Fan also entered the city, but he did not go back to Ji's house directly, but went to the Quji Medicinal Herb Store alone.

When you come here, you naturally still have to buy Xingcui medicinal herbs.

In order to quickly improve his cultivation, his consumption of Star Essence medicinal materials has always been very large.

Seeing Ji Fan come in, the old shopkeeper behind the counter smiled very happily and greeted him very politely: "Young Master Ji Fan, I'm here to buy Xingcui again." ”

"Hmm. ”

Ji Fan nodded, and when he saw that Qu Yu was also lying on a chair behind the counter, he knew that buying Xingcui this time would not be very smooth.

After preparing to be slaughtered, he put a slip on the counter and said, "Here's a list of the stars I need, calculate how many Star Coins I need." ”

"Please wait a moment. ”

The old shopkeeper immediately checked it carefully, and used a brush to write and draw on the list.

"Young Master Ji Fan, these star essences you want need a total of 230,000 star coins. ”

About a tea time passed, and the old shopkeeper finished calculating.

"So much, I'll see. ”

Qu Yu, who had been silent, stood up, picked up the list, and pretended to look at it.

The old shopkeeper and Ji Fan both felt that Qu Yu would definitely add some more star coins, but after Qu Yu looked at it for a while, he shook his head and said, "I miscalculated, it should only be enough for 200,000 star coins." ”

"Huh?"

The old shopkeeper looked surprised.

Ji Fan also felt incredible.

"Ahh

Qu Yu glared at the old shopkeeper, and said: "Brother Ji Fan is our old customer of Qu Ji, we can't ask for a price with a conscience!"

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

The old shopkeeper didn't understand what medicine was sold in his young master's gourd, and he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only nod his head again and again.

Ji Fan didn't know what Qu Yu thought, and he was happy to save 30,000 star coins, and immediately took out a stack of paper tickets and put them on the counter.

The old shopkeeper took the paper ticket and told the man to go and get the star essence medicinal herbs.

With the improvement of cultivation, the quality of the Star Pure Medicinal Materials that Ji Fan needed was also increasing, and the Star Coins that needed to be paid were naturally more.

"Brother Ji Fan, please don't take last night's misunderstanding to heart. ”

Qu Yu walked out from behind the counter and said with a smile: "In order to make amends for your sins, I booked a banquet in Piaoxiangyuan, please be sure to appreciate the light." ”

"Since it's just a misunderstanding, where do you need Brother Qu to make amends?"

Ji Fan shook his head and politely refused: "Besides, not long after the death of the old master, there are many things to be busy at home, please forgive Ji Fan for not having spare time to go to the banquet." ”

"Brother don't be polite, even if it's not an atonement, it's a kindness to my brother, and I want to be friends with my brother. ”

Qu Yu insisted on the invitation and said very sincerely: "In the past, I just listened to the people in the city chew the root of the tongue, so I would underestimate the elder brother, but now after a few contacts with the elder brother, I know that the elder brother is a temperamental person worthy of befriending, please give the elder brother a chance to re-acquaint himself with the elder brother." ”

"This ......"

Although Ji Fan knew that this Qu Yu was mostly hypocritical and polite, he was not good at losing the face of others.

"As long as my brother goes to the banquet tonight, the two of us will be friends, from now on, my brother will enjoy a discount on the purchase of stars in Quji, and if my brother needs, we will do our best to help you get it." ”

Qu Yu said pointedly: "There are many types of stars that my brother needs, not all of them are easy to get, and some of them are not for sale in our songs." ”

"Piaoxiangyuan, yes, I'll try to go at night. ”

Ji Fan pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.

Right now, he really can't offend the Qu family, he needs the Qu family to sell him the Star Essence medicinal materials.

Qu Ji's buddy quickly sent the Xingcui that Ji Fan needed, carrying a big bag full of Xingcui medicinal materials, and Ji Fan returned to Ji's house.

To his surprise, not long after he returned to his stone house, Ji Changlie, the new head of the Ji family, came to the door.

"Ji Fan, it is said that you have already cultivated at the seventh order of the Star Bone Realm, and your cultivation speed has been extremely fast recently, is it related to these Star Essence medicinal materials?"

Ji Changlie did not show the majesty of the head of the family, but asked with a smile on his face and very kindly.

"Yes. ”

Ji Fan has no other better explanation, but to admit it.

"Can you tell me how?"

Ji Changlie asked first, and then added: "This matter is very important to our family, and you are also a member of our Ji family, so don't hide your selfish intentions in this regard." ”

"It's an ancient recipe, and I saw it by chance. ”

Ji Fan thought of the large amount of star coins left by the deceased Ji Wanshan, and thought that he did occupy the original Ji Fan's body, so he planned to repay it and immediately said the so-called ancient recipe.

Besides, people have already asked so directly, and if he doesn't say it, it will cause criticism.

For him, this ancient recipe was only of great use at the beginning stage of cultivation, so there was no need to hide it.

"Even if this recipe is really useful, it is too dependent on the star pure, and the cost is so great that our family's financial resources simply cannot support everyone to use it. ”

Ji Changlie was also quite knowledgeable, he quickly saw the shortcomings of that ancient recipe, frowned and said: "The recipe that is useful for the cultivators of the Star Bone Realm, the star essence medicinal materials in it are not very expensive, but if the Star Realm also uses this ancient recipe to speed up cultivation, it will cost hundreds of thousands of star coins at a time, and this cost is really unbearable." ”

"If you want to improve your cultivation quickly, of course, you have to pay a certain price. ”

Ji Fan said indifferently.

"Moreover, under the pretense of using the stimulation of the Star Essence Medicinal Materials to quickly improve one's cultivation, after all, it is relying on external forces, which will inevitably lead to the realm not being stable enough, and if you are not careful, you will lose all your efforts, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Ji Changlie was a little disappointed with the ancient recipe that Ji Fan said, and then asked, "You should have a way to ensure that nothing goes wrong, right?"

"Nope. ”

Ji Fan shook his head.

It's not that he doesn't have a way, he just doesn't want to say it.

He can tell the ancient recipe, and he has done his best to the Ji family, and the Ji family's attitude towards him makes it impossible for him to give the Ji family too many benefits.

Moreover, he knows that people are very greedy, and the more he speaks, the more others will think that he knows more.

"Then how did you make breakthroughs in your cultivation without problems?"

Ji Changlie felt that Ji Fan had not finished telling the truth, so his face gradually showed displeasure.

"My realm stagnated for too long in the past few years, but I haven't let go of cultivation, so my foundation is very solid. ”

Ji Fan gave a reasonably reasonable explanation.

"Hmm. In any case, if you can say this ancient recipe, you can be regarded as a contribution to the family, and the family will definitely not treat you badly. ”

Ji Changlie patted Ji Fan on the shoulder, and then left.

Ji Fan could expect that Ji Changlie had a lot of dissatisfaction with that ancient recipe, but this new family head would definitely use his power to seek benefits for his son Ji Ye.

I'm afraid that it won't be too long, and Ji Ye's cultivation will skyrocket.

At dusk, Ji Fan walked out of the Ji family's mansion, and to his surprise, Qu Yu was really sincere, and he actually sent a carriage to wait for him at the gate of the Ji family's mansion.

However, for Qu Yu's arrangement, Ji Fan did not appreciate it-

This carriage belongs to the Qu family, it is easy to identify, and he got into the Qu family's carriage at the gate of his own mansion, which will inevitably make the Ji family suspicious.

Riding in the carriage of the Qu family, Ji Fan soon arrived at Piaoxiang Garden, which was located in the northeast corner of Bailian City.

Piaoxiang Garden is very famous in Bailian City, it is not only a restaurant, but also a place for the rich and noble families in the city to have fun.

Ji Fan was still entering Piaoxiang Garden for the first time, and he was very unfamiliar with the environment inside, but fortunately, the Qu family who picked him up could lead the way for him.

Piaoxiang Garden is surrounded by a high courtyard wall, and among them is a large courtyard.

The whole yard has been arranged as a garden, full of pavilions, rockeries and ponds, as well as flowers and plants, the environment is very elegant.

Ji Fan was taken to the edge of a small pond, and then he saw Qu Yu, who had already greeted him.

Qu Yu was wearing a silver robe tonight, with a gold belt tied around his waist, and a folding fan in his hand, which looked more like a son-in-law than usual.

"Brother Ji Fan, please come here. ”

Qu Yu looked very close to Ji Fan, he took one of Ji Fan's arms and walked to a private seat.

There is a circle of flower beds more than one person high around this seat, and only the side facing the small pond is completely open.

What Ji Fan still didn't expect was that Qu Yu not only invited himself tonight, but also invited two other young people.

The two of them are also teenagers, all wearing brocade clothes, with calm expressions, and they will not look like ordinary people.

"Come, let me introduce you to you, this is Young Master Ji Fan of the Ji family. ”

"Brother Ji Fan, this is the Zheng family's Zheng Yun's brother, and this is the Bai family's Bai Jinyu brother. ”

Qu Yu first introduced Ji Fan, and then introduced the other two respectively.

"Brother Qu, you were still selling Guanzi before, and you refused to say who you invited today, I thought it was a distinguished guest, it turned out to be this waste material of the Ji family!"

Zheng Yun, who was slightly chubby, waved his palm with five jasper wrenches and said in a strange tone.

"That's it, that's it!"

And the white gold feather, who was dressed in gold and looked very tall, nodded and agreed: "I knew you would invite him to come, I wouldn't come, it's too embarrassing to play with such a person." "Peerless Star Soul
