When the elder of Yuqingmen saw that it was a jade plate, his face became like lightning, and he immediately showed a respectful smile and said to Zhou Hong: "It turned out to be Grandmaster Zhou, and he didn't know Mount Tai with eyes below." ”

What is the status of a pill sect master, as the elder in charge of the reception of the Yuqing Sect, he immediately ordered his disciples to inform the master, and he himself personally served good tea for Zhou Hong and the others.

Zhou Hong showed a reserved smile at the level of a grandmaster, and said to the leading elder of the Yuqing Sect: "There are a few Jindan stage monks in your sect. ”

The leading elder hurriedly replied respectfully, "There are five of them!"

Zhou Hong frowned and said, "Five Jindan stage cultivators are also difficult to gain a foothold in the second-rate sect. ”

Seeing Zhou Hong's disdain for Yuqingmen, the Receiving Elder hurriedly added: "However, this sect accepted a female disciple of a second-class spiritual root a few years ago, and now she is cultivating in Tianyue Academy, I believe that she will also marry in a few decades." ”

Zhou Hong smiled indifferently and said with a little emotion: "Second-grade spiritual roots are indeed rare, there is no problem with the knot, your faction is lucky." ”

The leading elder finally felt a little more faced, and his head was slightly raised.

At this time, Zhou Hong asked again: "What is the level of the pill pharmacist of your sect?"

The elder was extremely depressed, Zhou Hong really didn't open any pot, he was just here to hit people, and he had to answer, so he said, "It's a pill pharmacist." ”

Zhou Hong smiled and said, "Why don't you invite a pill master." ”

The Elder was a little angry, and he held back his anger and said, "The Pill Master is either working for the Great Gate Sect, or he can open a Dan refining room to make a fortune, how can he be in a second-rate sect like us." ”

Zhou Hong said: "There are a lot of pill masters, you see that the two people I brought are all pill masters." ”

The Elder had an urge to go crazy, but when he heard that the two people Zhou Hong took were pill masters, he had to see them one by one. The elixir master is also a great character.

After a while, the sound of drums sounded.

The Elder immediately stood solemnly and said to Zhou Hong, "Sect Master Zhou, this is the etiquette for my Yuqing Gate to receive distinguished guests. ”

Zhou Hong stood up and followed the guide elder to the door of the guidance hall.

Huayangzi, the head of Yuqing Sect, came to the outside of the receiving hall with more than ten elders of Yuqing Gate, and an elder next to Huayangzi shouted in a long voice: "Huayangzi, the head of Yuqing Sect, greets the distinguished guest Grandmaster Zhou Hong. ”

With the shouting of the elders, the team of more than ten people stopped, and Hua Yang slowly came out of the team and walked towards Zhou Hong.

The two of them saluted together, and after saying some scenes such as long-worship, Zhou Hong explained the purpose of the trip.

Of course, he would not first depreciate his identity to become a nominal alchemist of Yuqingmen, he first proposed to Huayangzi that a person with a great talent for pills learn the way of pills from him.

When Zhou Hong said the name Hao Dong, everyone on the field was stunned, none of them had heard that Hao Dong had a talent for alchemy, and Hao Dong was also a person in his hundreds, was it too late to learn the way of pills now.

However, when Huayangzi heard Zhou Hong's request, he was overjoyed in his heart. Everything has a back and forth, and if you ask me for someone, I will naturally ask you something.

Huayangzi muttered: "Originally, Grandmaster Zhou's request, don't dare to disobey it, but Hao Dong is also the mainstay of my sect, and this sect is also ready to train him to be a pill pharmacist, and my Yuqing Sect is short of pill pharmacists, so this request of Grandmaster Zhou is really a bit difficult to follow." ”

When everyone in Yuqingmen heard this, they couldn't help but secretly admire Huayangzi's ability to open his eyes and say nonsense, although there was a shortage of monks in the Jindan period of Yuqingmen, there were more than a hundred monks in the congenital period, and Hao Dong was more than a hundred years old, and he had only cultivated to the middle of the congenital stage, and he was not conspicuous in the sect at all, but now Huayangzi regarded Hao Dong as the mainstay.

Zhou Hong smiled slightly, and said: "Hao Dong is indeed a talent, and I don't want to be embarrassed in the future, I have a proposal, anyway, I am also a person with no sect and no faction, I will be the nominal alchemist of your faction, Hao Dong will learn the way of pills with me, this can also be regarded as cultivating talents for Yuqingmen, what do you think?"

Hua Yangzi's eyes widened and he looked at Zhou Hong in disbelief: "Grandmaster Zhou, what did you say?"

A Pill Sect Master volunteered to serve as a nominal Pill Pharmacist in a second-rate sect, and although the Nominal Pill Pharmacist would not bring much practical benefit to the sect, it would invisibly improve the reputation of the sect.

So Hua Yangzi couldn't believe his ears at all, how could a pill master come to Yuqingmen to be a nominal pill pharmacist for no reason.

Zhou Hong had no choice but to re-tell what he had to say.

The expression on Hua Yangzi's face also became extremely fast like lightning, and he immediately ordered an elder to go to Hao Dong.

He was afraid that Zhou Hong would regret it, so he immediately asked someone to prepare a letter of appointment, and then began to discuss the issue of the bride price with Zhou Hong.

When Huayangzi offered a bride price of 5,000 spirit stones per year, all the elders of Yuqingmen were taken aback. Yuqingmen has no mineral resources, it is very poor, the elders above the Jindan stage of Yuqingmen are only two thousand spirit stones per year, as for the disciples of the general innate stage, there are only a few dozen spirit stones.

However, they quickly understood Huayangzi's intentions, there was a pill master in the sect, even if it was in name, it would play a key role in attracting outstanding talents to join the sect. This is extremely beneficial to the long-term development of the sect.

After all, the head is the head, and the vision is to see farther.

To be honest, with a bride price of 5,000 spirit stones a year, Zhou Hong felt that he couldn't afford to lose that person, and if it was passed on, he might not be able to raise his head in front of his peers.

He laughed and said: "Brother Hua is really looking down on it, five thousand spirit stones, hehe, I don't lack those five thousand spirit stones, and I will be named in Yuqingmen for free for Brother Hua's face, character and appearance." ”

In fact, everyone in Yuqing Men could hear that Zhou Hong's words, where were they aimed at Huayangzi's face, they were clearly aimed at Hao Dong's face, and they were all thinking: "Then Hao Dong is not visible to the mountains and water, where is he going to earn such a big face." ”

Huayangzi naturally heard what Zhou Hong meant, but he couldn't take out more spirit stones, so he had to say with a shy face: "Sect Master Zhou is really righteous, and immediately ordered someone to hang the portrait of Sect Master Zhou in the Xiande Hall of Yuqing Gate, so that the people of Yuqing Gate will always remember Grandmaster Zhou's kindness." As for the five thousand stones, I know that some of them are not easy to take, but I still ask Sect Master Zhou to accept them with a smile. Otherwise, someone outside will hear it and laugh at me, Yuqingmen is too stingy. ”

Zhou Hong's eyes rolled, although he didn't know that Yuqingmen refused to accept Qin Yang back then, and he thought that it couldn't be too cheap Yuqingmen, but Qin Yang had explained to him that the people of Yuqingmen, except for Hao Dong, could not be damaged, and other people could be cheap, and they must take advantage of what they could take, and now these five thousand spirit stones are nothing to Zhou Hong, but it is also a good thing to let Yuqingmen break the cost.

It's just that he is a pill grandmaster, and he receives a commission of five thousand spirit stones a year, and when this matter spreads, he can't raise his head among his peers, his eyes rolled, and he thought of an idea, so he smiled indifferently and said: "Five thousand spirit stones will be subsidized to Hao Dong, learning the way of pills is quite hard." ”

Hua Yangzi was so heartbroken that he wanted to roll on the ground, but he couldn't take back what he said, so he had to pretend to be generous and say that everything would be done according to what Grandmaster Zhou said.

As for those high-level people in Yuqingmen, their eyes were as red as rabbits.

When Hao Dong was taken to the main hall of the Yuqing Gate by an elder, all the high-ranking members of the Yuqing Gate, including Hua Yangzi, cast envious and even jealous glances at him.

In Yuqingmen, the disciples who have no hope of forming a Dan belong to the marginal people who stand on the sidelines, and they are not valued by the sect, where has Hao Dong, who has always been neglected, ever seen the high-level of Yuqingmen look at him in this way.

After he saluted to the head Hua Yangzi with anxiety, Hua Yangzi hurriedly left his seat to return the salute, which frightened Hao Dong's face and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

When Hua Yangzi explained the situation to him cordially, Hao Dong was still confused.

That night, Yuqingmen set up a banquet to entertain Zhou Hong, not only Zhou Hong was treated as a guest, but even Hao Dong was inexplicably praised by the high-level of Yuqingmen, saying that he was the mainstay of the sect and that he was a genius in alchemy.

When Hao Dong was in the clouds, he was a real person, and he didn't believe that good luck would fall on his head.

He felt that he had been betrayed by the Yuqing Sect, he didn't know anything about alchemy at all, how could he become a person with alchemy talent.

Hao Dong couldn't help but think of Qin Yang's mantra, he really wanted to spray those people who didn't take him seriously with Ben on weekdays, and now they touted him in order to sell him for a good price, especially to the young woman Elder Lin: "You are the mainstay, and your whole family is the mainstay." ”

The next day, Hao Dong almost took a look at the Yuqing Mountain Range where he had lived and cultivated for more than a hundred years with a tragic mood, and then followed Zhou Hong to Jade Mirror City.
