Chapter Eighty-Three: The Right Man
At that time, Jiang Beiran, who left Shuijingtang in Shi Fenglan's reluctance, went back to the back mountain directly, and heard a flute from a distance on the road.
So Jiang Beiran quickened his pace and came to the outside of the formation he had laid out.
"It's Qinghuan who is back." When he saw the piper at the door, Jiang Beiran smiled and said hello.
Hearing Senior Brother's voice, Gu Qinghuan put down the jade flute, turned around and saluted respectfully towards Jiang Beiran, "Meet Senior Brother." ”
"Let's go, let's go up and talk again."
Taking Gu Qinghuan back to Zizhu Garden, Jiang Beiran poured two glasses of moonlight white first, put one cup in front of Gu Qinghuan and said, "Did this trip go well?" ”
"Thank you, brother." Taking the teacup with both hands, Gu Qinghuan put down the big box behind him and arched his hand: "Fortunately, I brought back everything you wanted, senior brother." ”
"Everything on the list?"
"Yes." Gu Qinghuan nodded.
"Very good, you are still as good as ever." Jiang Beiran said with great satisfaction.
Gu Qinghuan was a budding disciple brought by Jiang Beiran when he was an iron seal three years ago, and in the process of understanding, Jiang Beiran knew that he was neither a second generation nor a supreme cultivation talent, and he was picked up into the sect like himself.
Later, in the process of trial, Gu Qinghuan's alertness and calmness made him appreciate it very much, even if he was not there, Gu Qinghuan could also take on the responsibility of the temporary captain very well.
This made Jiang Beiran move his mind to accept him as his right-hand man, and it was also the first time that Jiang Beiran took the initiative to do so.
Later, Gu Qinghuan passed the various tests secretly arranged by Jiang Beiran very smoothly, and more importantly, the system did not accept him as a helper after any unfavorable options.
Under such circumstances, Jiang Beiran had a showdown with him, told him part of his strength and plans, and asked him if he wanted to follow him.
Gu Qinghuan was also very happy, and worshiped Jiang Beiran on the spot, without a word of nonsense.
This made Jiang Beiran more and more satisfied, because he knew that a smart person like Gu Qinghuan must be secretly observing him, but he didn't say it, nor did he have any high-minded talk to show his ability, just a simple sentence, "Please also ask the senior brother to take care of him more." ”
For this kind of person who can hide his intelligence in his heart and not be superficial, Jiang Beiran admires it the most.
The task of collecting wild heavenly materials and earth treasures, which requires more force, has been arranged for Wu Qingce, and Jiang Beiran's task to Gu Qinghuan is to exchange the idle or unneeded things in his hands for useful ones through trading.
The remuneration is the same as Wu Qingce, Jiang Beiran will tailor weapons, armor and pills for him.
In the next three years, Gu Qinghuan performed as well as Jiang Beiran imagined, he couldn't help but be able to complete the tasks assigned to him by Jiang Beiran every time, and at the same time, he also used the resources given to him by Jiang Beiran to accumulate strong contacts in the sect and pull up a huge trading network.
Carrying the box that Gu Qinghuan put on the ground, Jiang Beiran beckoned to him and said, "Let's go, take you to see a good place." ”
Turning over the two hillsides, Jiang Beiran took Gu Qinghuan to the cultivation place he had newly obtained from the hall master.
"I've already set up the formation, and the purple bamboo has also been planted, so if you want to cultivate at that time, it's good to come."
Looking at the hut and yard built in front of him, Gu Qinghuan happily turned around and saluted Jiang Beiran: "Thank you so much, senior brother." ”
I have to say that God is always fair, although Gu Qinghuan has wisdom and maturity far beyond his peers, he is much worse in terms of cultivation.
In the past three years, he is only the second order of the Xuan, although the speed of progress is not slow, but it is just ordinary, with such qualifications, it is difficult to apply for the Houshan cultivation land.
But Gu Qinghuan is a very strong person, although his talent is not good, he is still very hard-working, and he has been working hard to complete the various tasks given to him by Jiang Beiran.
Now that he had finally obtained the cultivation place of his dreams, he was extremely excited.
"Of course, you have to take care of them." Jiang Beiran said as he took out a black jar from the box and opened the lid, inside was a palm-sized ghost-faced spider with gray fluff.
The ghost-faced spider that regained its sight immediately crawled out of Jiang Beiran's hand and bit Jiang Beiran's arm.
However, no matter how hard it tried, its teeth couldn't break through Jiang Beiran's epidermis at all, and just as he was about to continue exerting force, he suddenly felt himself soaring into the air and came to mid-air.
"Tsk, don't be good, I didn't treat you well, why did you bite me?"
The ghost-faced spider naturally couldn't understand what Jiang Beiran was saying, and its eight legs and a pair of chelicerae kept waving in the air.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, come, let me see what kind of character you are." Jiang Beiran said as he put it in the palm of his hand and observed it carefully.
"Hmm...... It is about 12 centimeters long, it should be a male, and the cephalothorax is shorter than the abdomen......" Jiang Beiran said and stretched out his hand to pick up the fluff on the spider's abdomen, "Well, dark brown, yes, it is the more toxic kind." ”
Then Jiang Beiran turned the ghost-faced spider over and observed its back, and found that there was a layer of breastplate under the fluff, which meant that it had first-order strength, to say the least.
The ghost-faced spider that was turned over and over by Jiang Beiran was a little anxious, and the eight one-eyed drippings were spinning around, and soon it found an opportunity to turn over and spew spider silk at Jiang Beiran with all its might.
But Jiang Beiran, who had long expected this situation, grabbed it with his right hand and pinched the spider silk in his hand.
"That's it? It's not sticky enough.,The average is less.,It seems that it can't be used for tools.。 Rubbing his fingers, Jiang Beiran said disappointedly.
Gu Qinghuan, who was feeling the aura here, heard that his senior brother said that this spider was not good, and hurriedly arched his hand and said, "I'm sorry, senior brother, I will definitely choose more carefully next time." ”
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay." Jiang Beiran waved his hand towards Gu Qinghuan, "This ghost-faced spider is in good condition, the poison should be very strong, as for the spider silk, it is originally an additive, even if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter much." ”
Although the ghost-faced spider couldn't understand what Jiang Beiran was saying, he always felt very unhappy, so he bit Jiang Beiran's index finger fiercely.
However, the result is still the same, it can't bite even a bit of epidermis at all.
After the initial observation of the ghost-faced spider, Jiang Beiran squatted down and put it on the ground.
The Ghost-faced Spider, which was suddenly freed, pulled up its eight legs and ran towards the grass next to it, but just as it was about to burrow into the grass, a large hand fell from the sky and grabbed it in midair.
"The speed is good, and it can be used for sneak attacks."
The spider's legs do not have any muscles, but are filled with a liquid that can be adjusted at any time to control the movement of its 8 legs, so that it can move in and out of the net freely.
If there were physics in this world, then Jiang Beiran would tell them that this is called hydraulic transmission.
And whether a spider's speed is fast enough depends on its mastery of pressure, and the same talent is also very important, some spiders are born with liquid in their eight legs that are different from other spiders, and the same pressure is to be able to run several times faster, and the ghost-faced spider in Jiang Beiran's hand is obviously such a talented player.
"Yes, yes, it still has a lot of potential, and it will definitely be better to raise it again."
After speaking, Jiang Beiran put the ghost-faced spider back into the black jar.
