Chapter 25 The heart of defense is indispensable
So Zhang Lifeng hurriedly swore and said, "As long as Lu Daoren helps me Zhang someone with this great favor, even if I go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire in the future, I Zhang someone will not frown at all." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Showing loyalty is such a thing, it is acting, Zhang Lifeng's experience is that the more exaggerated the acting, the better.
Sure enough, Lu Daoren smiled and said, "Look at what you said, where will I let you go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, since you are the only senior disciple of Meng Daoren, I don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, I will give you this deposit first, but first say okay, the receipt of your deposit can be kept for me, and this hundred low-level spirit stones is not a small amount." ”
Why did he mention Meng Daoren, could he have ulterior motives for Meng Daoren, Zhang Lifeng flashed a trace of doubt in his heart, but he still agreed with a smile on his face, "Thank you Lu Daoren, thank you Lu Daoren, this receipt is naturally kept by you, if I have enough money in the future, I will return the original amount." ”
After some polite words, Lu Daoren took Zhang Lifeng to the Danhuo Fang, and when he arrived at the counter, he revealed his identity as a deacon, threw out a hundred low-level spirit stones, and rented a half-person-high Dan furnace.
Zhang Lifeng carefully looked at the Dan furnace in front of him, it was made of brass, but it was not as shiny as ordinary brass, it may be doped with other metals, and the whole was in the shape of a gourd, large and small, beautifully carved and finely made, just like a small handicraft.
After Lu Daoren completed the formalities, he accepted the deposit slip and said to Zhang Lifeng, "This small Dan furnace can refine sixty pills at a time, it is called a carved gourd furnace, and it is more than enough for you to practice." ”
Zhang Lifeng said, "Thank you Lu Daoren for your guidance, if you can find me in the future, please don't be polite." ”
Lu Daoren stretched out his hand to stop him, "Here it is again, we don't have to be so polite between us, this Danhuo Workshop also sells medicinal herb raw materials and firewood, you can take a look at it casually, I still have something to do, so I will leave first." After speaking, Lu Daoren hurriedly left.
Zhang Lifeng took a look, the raw materials of the herbs here were all from Nong Feng, and the four raw materials of a Qi Nourishing Pill alone were all sold for about one-third of a low-level spirit stone, and a Qi Nourishing Pill was sold for a low-grade spirit stone.
In other words, maintaining an alchemy success rate of about 30% can protect the capital, and maintaining an alchemy success rate of more than 60% like Lu Daoren can earn double the pressure without pressure.
Of course, firewood also needs a certain amount of spirit stones, but compared to the price of herbs, it is really much cheaper, and a low-grade spirit stone can buy a hundred catties of firewood.
After reading all this, Zhang Lifeng probably had a number in his heart, and he didn't make a rash move, and after thinking for a while, he took the Dan furnace and left the Danhuo Workshop and went to the Formation Peak.
Before arriving at the peak of the formation, Zhang Lifeng asked the disciple of Shoufeng to inform Wang Tianming on his behalf that he, Zhang Lifeng, had something to visit today.
After a while, a figure stood on top of the big pen and swayed down from the peak, and after stopping, a thin man came down from above, it was Wang Tianming, who had not seen him for half a month.
Wang Tianming came up and hugged Zhang Lifeng's shoulder and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you think of coming to my Wang's place to sit today?"
Zhang Lifeng coughed embarrassedly and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Wang, don't hide it, I'm here to borrow money!"
Wang Tianming was stunned, how could anyone come up to borrow money as soon as he came up?
Zhang Lifeng simply went straight to the point and said, "I know that I owe a lot to Senior Brother Wang all along, but I really can't imagine that anyone else will borrow money from me except you, so I can only be cheeky." ”
Wang Tianming pondered for a moment and said, "I would like to ask, Senior Brother Zhang, how many spirit stones have you borrowed, and what are you going to do after you borrow them?"
Zhang Lifeng told the truth and said, "I need to borrow twenty low-grade spirit stones, and I plan to buy some alchemy materials after borrowing them!"
Wang Tianming was taken aback and asked, "You've only been in Danfeng for half a month, and you've already been able to make alchemy independently?"
Zhang Lifeng said even more embarrassedly, "No, I'm just giving those alchemy Dao people a hand, and I haven't done alchemy independently, but now I have a chance, I want to give it a try, can Senior Brother Wang recognize this thing?"
After saying that, Zhang Lifeng patted his waist, and the carved gourd furnace that had been put away flew out, Wang Tianming was very surprised when he saw it, and asked, "Where did you get a hundred low-grade spirit stones to rent this small Dan furnace?"
Zhang Lifeng told him about borrowing and renting a small Dan furnace from Lu Daoren, but he concealed Lu Daoren's excessive concern for his master Meng Daoren, after all, this was an internal matter of Danfeng, and Wang Tianming didn't need to know.
Wang Tianming thought for a while and said, "Since even Deacon Danfeng has vouched for you, I, as a senior brother, naturally can't be stingy, you can take these twenty low-level spirit stones." ”
Zhang Lifeng took the spirit stone, and was very emotional in his heart, although Wang Tianming is already a third-generation disciple, but his monthly income is only ten low-level spirit stones, five qi cultivation pills, this time he took out twenty low-level spirit stones in one go, which is equivalent to two months for nothing, this is the trust between men, needless to say, if you have difficulties, I will help.
And Zhang Lifeng obviously felt that Senior Brother Wang in front of him must also be spending money, otherwise he would not be so hesitant, so that he could lend it to himself boldly, and this affection is all in words.
Zhang Lifeng arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wang, I will definitely return you as soon as possible." ”
The spirit stone borrowed his hand, but Wang Tianming was relaxed, and said with a smile, "Since the business has been said, why don't you go to my place now, drink together, and enjoy the flowers, how about it?"
Zhang Lifeng politely refused, "I really want to get drunk with Senior Brother Wang, but now that time is money and efficiency is life, I have to go back to alchemy quickly, so I will leave first." ”
After speaking, Zhang Lifeng rushed to Danfeng, leaving Wang Tianming to ponder the two sentences of "time is money, efficiency is life" in the same place.
After half a ring, Wang Tianming's mouth muttered, "These two sentences sound cheesy, but they make a lot of sense, Senior Brother Zhang is really a reckless person, and I will discuss the next verses with him when I have time." ”
Zhang Lifeng arrived at the Danhuo Fang half an hour later, and eighteen spirit stones bought fifty-four copies of the materials for the Qi Nourishing Pill, and two spirit stones bought two hundred catties of firewood.
Then he went back to his home, released the gourd pill furnace, put in ten parts of the qi nourishing pill materials, lit the firewood with a yang fire, and began to refine the pill.
In fact, with the materials in Zhang Lifeng's Qiankun bag, he didn't need to borrow money to buy raw materials at all, as long as he bought some firewood, he could directly refine the medicine with the refined fish scale grass, five-flower root, jade stem, and rhubarb grass granules.
However, Zhang Lifeng understood that when he borrowed money from Lu Daoren to rent a small Dan furnace, Lu Daoren had a heart for him, if this Lu Daoren was not a natural good person, he would definitely secretly monitor his every move to see if he had any secrets.
Because of a Qi refining layer, a disciple who has been in the field for half a month has to refine the pill alone, which is too fast, and it has to make people suspicious.
It is too easy for another foundation building Daoist to monitor a Daoist who is refining qi at the first level, and the monitoring cost is too low, so Zhang Lifeng has to guard against it.
As for how to prevent it, only the alchemy of rules and regulations and honest failure can reassure Lu Dao people.
In fact, Zhang Lifeng regarded himself as an entrepreneur with a way to make a fortune, and went out to find a Lu Daoren for financing, but he didn't know if this Lu Daoren was the kind of angel investor who kicked himself away after mastering his own channels, so he designed a failed disguise.
If Lu Daoren didn't have bad intentions, Zhang Lifeng and others could give him a reward when they made money; if Lu Daoren had bad intentions, Zhang Lifeng would use this failure as a result.
Moreover, in this world of cultivation without relatives and no reason, once Zhang Lifeng is discovered his secret, what awaits him is either endlessly squeezed, or murdered and exterminated, and being able to use the Waste Pill is a major event that can change the fate of a Xiuzhen sect!
So he had to guard against it, and he couldn't help but guard against it!
