Chapter 50: The Sect Master of Alchemy
For seven days, Hong Tao just ate a bite of food in a hurry every day, and he couldn't even sleep in the warehouse.
There are many times when the medicine is in the furnace and you don't need to take care of it, but you always have to be careful of unexpected situations. If it is an ordinary person refining medicine, he will definitely have to rest in shifts, but Hong Tao can use his true qi to eliminate his fatigue, and the big deal is to take a few more qi tonifying pills.
Three meals a day were delivered to the door of the warehouse as usual, but Hong Tao only ate one meal a day, and this time the alchemy consumed almost all of his energy.
In the end, nearly half of the pills had not been formed, and with so many medicinal materials, only five small pills came out.
The door of the warehouse has always been guarded, and as soon as Hong Tao came out, he immediately went to inform the head of the Gu family.
The eyes of the Gu family master were full of expectation, even if Hong Tao failed, he had nothing to feel sorry for, from the very beginning, he had prepared for the worst, after all, the failure rate of refining itself was very high.
"Three have been refined, and I will keep one for myself." When Hong Tao said this, the head of the Gu family was so excited that he almost jumped up, Hong Tao gave him more than just pills, this was the hope of the Gu family.
"Mr. is very gracious, the Gu family has nothing to repay, from now on, if anyone is useful to Gu, Mr. will never give up." The head of the Gu family arched his hand and said.
"Two million, plus Gu Family Exercises."
……
Gu Huanfeng felt that his ambition just now could be used to feed the dogs. But even if it's two million, he thinks it's worth it to buy the rise of his Gu family.
Just after Gu Huanfeng agreed, Hong Tao was still wondering if it would be less.
He was so tired, seven days and seven nights had made him physically and mentally exhausted, and he also realized that with his current realm, it was really reluctant to refine medicine.
But what Hong Tao didn't know was that even if he only succeeded in one furnace, it would be enough to shock everyone.
Although there are few cultivators, there are inheritances in every big family, but alchemists, that is a rare existence. Even if it is a huge organization like the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, there is only one alchemist.
The news that Hong Tao had refined the "Washing the Scriptures and Cutting the Myelin Pill" was blocked by the Gu family for the first time, in fact, even if it was the Gu family, only one or two people knew about it.
is like the master of Chinese medicine invited by the Gu family, he only knows that Hong Tao wants to refine medicine, but he only treats it as an ordinary Chinese medicine. This kind of anti-heaven elixir that can change qualifications, he has never heard of it at all.
Gu Huanfeng asked people to take care of Hong Tao, but he returned to his study. There are many collected ornaments in Gu Huanfeng's study, including sculptures and vases, and everyone only thinks it is an ornament, but they don't know that there is another mystery in it.
I saw Gu Huanfeng twist one of the vases, and in an instant the bookshelf began to move, and a passage less than one meter wide was revealed. Gu Huanfeng walked along the steps towards the passage, and this is where the real essence of the Gu family lies.
Gu Huanfeng walked into the secret room, there was a stone platform in the middle of the empty underground room, and in the crystal box on the stone platform, it was the Gu family exercises that were lying there.
Just as he was looking at the exercises in a daze, there was another person in the passage, and it was Gu Qingzhi.
The two exchanged glances with each other, and Gu Huanfeng said, "I took this first pill myself, after all, it is indispensable to guard against others." ”
Gu Qingzhi didn't speak, and when Gu Huanfeng called him over in the middle of the night, he already understood that this Los Angeles would probably be the Gu family's dominance in the future.
"I'm not young, and the root bone itself is poor, and this pill actually allowed me to break through the realm that I couldn't break through for ten years." Hearing this, even Gu Qingzhi, who had already reached the age of ancient times, had a fine light in his eyes, and his heart began to beat faster.
"It's ridiculous that I used to think about giving him the exercises, but now it seems that the one standing behind him is the alchemy master." Gu Qing's heart was shocked, at first, the Gu family and Hong Tao were only friendly because they wanted to confront the Zeng family, but they didn't expect them to meet nobles.
Gu Huanfeng gently stroked the crystal box on the stone platform, "Another pill is at your disposal, if Hong Tao needs the help of the Gu family, I hope to spare no effort." ”
The head of the Gu family is in retreat, but Hong Tao doesn't know about this, and he can't imagine how much impact the "Washing the Scriptures and Cutting the Myelin Pill" has on the Gu family.
When he woke up from a nap, he saw more than a dozen missed calls from Chen Ming.
Hong Tao thought that something had happened at home, so he quickly called Chen Ming back.
As a result, Chen Ming came up and scolded him and asked him what he was doing.
Chen Ming scolded and scolded, but he was joking a lot, and finally told Hong Tao about the strange guest coming to him.
"He gives a million commissions?" Except for the time that Su Sihai deliberately arranged, Hong Tao had never encountered such a big list.
"Yes, it's a lot of money, but I don't think it's reliable......"
"Wait for me, I'll go back to see him right away."
……
Having money and liking money are two different things, Hong Tao never thought that he was a selfless person, he was still thinking that if he had saved enough money, he would take his parents over, buy a house for Chen Ming, and open a chain store for Bing.
Because he was poor, Hong Tao didn't think there was anything wrong with liking money.
After a brief cleanup, Hong Tao directly asked people to send him back to the office.
Hong Tao himself has no power and no power in this city, like a rootless duckweed, so he will show his strength to the Gu family and give the Gu family alchemy, which is actually the help that Hong Tao found for himself.
Originally, he only planned to give the Gu family a pill, but after a family incident, Hong Tao felt more and more that he was strong and no one could help him, but he still had family and friends, so it was not impossible to have more choices.
Of course, all the while, he never thought about who to rely on, because he didn't need to rely on anyone at all.
Only Bing is his own, and from the very beginning, he thought that he would be able to do both spiritual work and practice. Only those who have accompanied him through thick and thin, and who have given him warmth, are worthy of his unrequited efforts.
The mysterious man still wrapped himself tightly, and he didn't look like a person at all, and at this time he was sitting in Chen Ming's private office nervously, waiting for Hong Tao to come over.
"You look nervous." Chen Ming took a sip of tea, although it was winter now, the heating in his office was very sufficient, it was estimated that this strange person should be hot, but he still didn't want to show up.
The mysterious man held his suitcase, and every once in a while he would look at the wall clock twice, and then ask when Hong Tao would come.
After waiting for about half an hour, the mysterious man began to fidget.
"Why don't I come back another day, I have something to ......do," the mysterious man stood up, and was about to leave when the door opened.
Hong Tao looked at the person in front of him who didn't show a trace of skin, and probably knew what was going on.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road. It's a bit cold in the room. Hong Tao consciously closed the door, and even locked it, and some customers came to the door and let them go.
After saying this, Hong Tao took off his coat and threw it directly on the sofa.
System: +69 malicious value from Zeng Zhixiao.
Saying it's cold, is it appropriate to take off your coat when you come in? Could it be a little more fake?
Hong Tao's heart trembled suddenly, this was originally a subconscious action, but he didn't expect to gain malicious value, the most important thing is that this person's surname is Zeng.
Of course, there are many people with the surname Zeng, and it can't be said that the person surnamed Zeng has something to do with the Zeng family, but this is tightly covered, isn't it to cover your ears and steal the bell?
However, Hong Tao still smiled and asked him to sit down, after all, he came to deliver money, how to say that sentence, the customer is God.
He hoped that Zeng Yongming was looking for someone to come over to take revenge, and when the time came, he would collect the money and not do anything, and Zeng Yongming would not be able to do anything to him. Zeng Yongming himself was responsible for dealing with the disgraceful things of the Zeng family, and Hong Tao still didn't believe that he could call the police.
"What do you call it?" Hong Tao asked with a smile.
Although the mysterious man was already panicking, he was not in a hurry to leave when he finally waited for Hong Tao.
"My name is Gu Yuanqiu, I saw you in the casino before, you taught the group of people in the casino at that time, one can fight several, so I came over this time to ask you for help."
"Oh, what's the matter with Gu Gongzi." Hong Tao almost couldn't help it, you said that you pretended to be bad and pretended to be Gu Yuanqiu, I'm afraid I don't know how familiar Hong Tao and Gu Yuanqiu are.
The other party thought for a while, and seemed to be organizing the language, "The group of people in the casino is going to smuggle a batch of goods, and then this batch of goods will be transported to the beach and smuggled abroad." As long as you help me sabotage their plans, I'll give you a million, and you can definitely do it. ”
I don't know why he has so much confidence in Hong Tao, but I have to say that Hong Tao is tempted.
The Zeng family is not a good bird, and it is definitely not a good thing to smuggle it abroad. This is to let him engage in sabotage and take malicious value to take money, the target is still the person he hates, why not do it.
There was just one doubt, Hong Tao asked, "Why do you think I can do it?" ”
The other party thought for a moment, "I'll pay two million." ”
"Yes, Lao Tie Changliang, you can give me the location, but you must pay a deposit of one million first." Hong Tao patted the mysterious man on the shoulder and smiled very happily.
The mysterious man had a million cash in his suitcase, which he had brought with him the last time he came, and this time he simply left it as a deposit.
Hong Tao thought that one day he would not only be able to defeat Wang Lang, but also be richer than the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, would Su Sihai's expression be super complicated? At that time, when I went to see Suman again, I had momentum when I thought about it.
Today's Hong Tao is no longer the little person that the bank manager can laugh at casually......
After the mysterious man left, Hong Tao called Gu Yuanqiu, this guy pretended to be Gu Yuanqiu, maybe Gu Yuanqiu still knew him.
"You said Zeng Zhixiao? Of course I know this, the eldest young master of the Zeng family, if he can't cultivate, he won't be able to do anything. What's wrong? Messing with you? Gu Yuanqiu said disdainfully, although Gu Yuanqiu is at the bottom of the Gu family, whether it is the martial arts realm or handling family affairs, it is normal to look down on this kind of gentleman.
"It's nothing, just ask." Hong Tao didn't tell Gu Yuanqiu that this guy was pretending to be him, otherwise Gu Yuanqiu would not be good for his business.
This is interesting, the eldest young master of the Zeng family spent money to hire someone to intercept his own family's Hu. Tut-tut, Hong Tao felt that he had caught up with the bloody plot of the eight-o'clock TV series, which was obviously a bridge to compete for family status.
Gu Yuanqiu said that Zeng Zhixiao's cultivation is not high, which proves that he is also an insider, and he must have seen that Hong Tao's realm is good, so he thinks it is worth spending two million.
In this regard, Hong Tao wanted to say three words, "Have vision!" ”
