Chapter Seventy-Nine: Pure Alchemy! Master Su!
Su Changkong nodded and smiled knowingly.
In the Giant Whale Gang, Gong Zheng is an alchemist, and his salary is actually not high, only three or five hundred taels of silver a month.
But the alchemist was the first person to come into contact with the baked elixir, and there were so many hands and feet that he could do!
Even if you take one or two, it doesn't matter, the Giant Whale Gang is also turning a blind eye to this, of course, if it is too much, and even the Giant Whale Gang's elixir supply cannot be satisfied, then it will definitely be investigated and held accountable.
Su Changkong's life calmed down suddenly, and he still practiced martial arts and worked every day as he did in the life of Black Iron Villa.
It's just that the content of the work has changed from the original forging to alchemy, and Su Changkong's forging has now reached the point of being superb, and it is difficult to make great progress in a short period of time, and it doesn't matter if it falls for the time being.
"This work...... Not bad indeed. ”
When night came, Su Changkong looked at a Qi Enhancement Pill in his hand, he was quite satisfied, swallowed it in one gulp, and then began to practice Turtle Breath Gong.
In the Giant Whale Gang, the elixir is also a very precious item, not something that ordinary members can enjoy, unless it is an elite disciple with a certain status in the gang, they can only get a certain amount of elixir every month, if they want to get more, they need to rely on contributions in exchange!
And like Su Changkong, as an alchemist himself, no one will blame him for occasionally taking a few of them, even if he is known by the Giant Whale Gang, he will turn a blind eye!
If the alchemist is satisfied, the alchemist will do his best to refine the pill, otherwise he will deliberately fail a few more times, and the loss of medicinal materials will be more than the price of a few pills.
This is where alchemists are so popular.
"The effect of this Qi Boosting Pill is more than several times higher than the Qi Enhancement Pill I took before! It's a pity that the success rate of refining the Qi Enhancement Pill is not high now, otherwise I would have been able to take a few more......"
Feeling the medicinal power of the Qi Enhancement Pill, Su Changkong secretly admired.
The Yiqi Powder that Su Changkong used to take was just a pill powder, and this Qi Enhancement Pill belongs to the category of pills, and the cost and effect are not at the same level!
In the blink of an eye, two months passed in a flash.
In the alchemy room of the medicine house, the fragrance of medicine is fragrant.
"Not bad! This furnace has refined 6 aerating pills! ”
The Dan furnace was opened, and looking at the few mellow and medicinal aeration pills in the Dan furnace, Gong Zheng on the side was amazed.
One furnace produces 6 finished products of Qiqi Dan, which not only requires luck, but also technology!
(4 realms are perfect for 7%)
Su Changkong's face was also full of smiles, his alchemy had already reached a new level in just one or two months, and he had reached the 4th realm, refining the Qi Enhancement Pill, and he could basically break even.
Of course, there are reasons for Su Changkong's talent and amazing potential, but Gong Zheng's unreserved guidance is also indispensable.
Gong Zheng exclaimed, "Changkong, your talent for alchemy is too amazing...... I guess it won't be long before I can beat me! ”
"Master Gong has praised it, it will take me at least ten years to catch up with Master Gong's alchemy." Su Changkong patted himself very modestly, in fact, with the progress speed of Su Changkong's alchemy, Su Changkong felt that one or two years should be enough!
"You kid don't need to be humble with me...... I have told you that your alchemy is enough to stand alone. Gong Zheng was a little amused, and then he said with a straight face, "It is estimated that I will leave the Giant Whale Gang at the beginning of next month, and you will take the position of alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang in the future, so you can do alchemy, and ignore some irrelevant things in the gang." ”
Su Changkong's heart was slightly cold, in the past two months, Su Changkong has been following Gong Zheng to learn alchemy, and he has hardly had too much contact with other people in the Giant Whale Gang, but from Gong Zheng, he still learned some things about the Giant Whale Gang.
The Whale Gang doesn't seem like a monolith from the outside world.
In the Giant Whale Gang, it is divided into multiple factions, among which the gang leader faction is naturally dominated by Sikong Yong, the leader of the Giant Whale Gang whose reputation shook the city of Merlin Mansion, but according to Gong Zheng, Sikong Yong has been in retreat for many years, and has not appeared in the Giant Whale Gang for at least five years.
This Meng Sang was ambitious, and he was originally obedient when Sikong Yong was there, but Sikong Yong did not show up in retreat for nearly five years, which made Meng Sang a little nervous, and the Giant Whale Gang has four halls of wind, fire, thunder and lightning, and everyone is also watching.
Not only that, but the Blue Rain Sea Route occupied by the Giant Whale Gang has recently been ready to move and want a piece of the pie!
There are quite a few problems inside and outside the Giant Whale Gang, and Gong Zheng is warning Su Changkong not to get involved in it.
Su Changkong smiled: "I'm just an alchemist, they fight for power and profit, and it's none of my business to fight for life or death." ”
"Yes." Gong Zheng nodded slightly, as an alchemist, he has a very special status in the Giant Whale Gang, no matter who is in power, it has nothing to do with them.
For the common people, does it make a difference who is the emperor?
"Master Gong, are you leaving?" And Su Changkong couldn't help but say, in the past two months, Gong Zheng instructed him to refine the pill and taught him everything, although a big reason was for himself, but Su Changkong was still very grateful to him.
Su Changkong is making rapid progress, Gong Zheng has nothing to teach, he has already applied to the Giant Whale Gang and will leave next month, Su Changkong is a little reluctant to do this.
"Of course you have to leave, the old man has no offspring! I'm tired for most of my life, so I have to take a few concubines to enjoy it, right? ”
Gong Zheng blew his beard and glared.
Su Changkong listened to it funny, this Gong Zheng is over fifty or sixty years old, he is not old, and he is not respected for the old, but the sadness of parting has also been washed away a lot.
"Changkong, you're still young...... In short, take care of yourself in the future. ”
Gong Zheng stopped talking and patted Su Changkong's shoulder.
Su Changkong probably understood what Gong Zheng meant.
Gong Zheng served as the alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang, although he had an extraordinary status, and he also obtained many benefits, and the price of this was that he had spent his youth in the alchemy room of the Giant Whale Gang since he was a teenager, and even his youth.
Gong Zheng felt that Su Changkong was very similar to himself when he was young, and he didn't regret it, but after all, he was a little stunned, and felt that Su Changkong took over his class, and maybe he would be like him, so that he would spend most of his life here day after day.
But Gong Zheng didn't know that the Giant Whale Gang was just a stop in Su Changkong's life, helping the Giant Whale Gang to refine the pill and strengthen himself, that's all!
In the evening, in the quiet courtyard where Su Changkong lived, he swallowed a red pill and practiced the five fowl plays, which were like illusions, and there was a sense of beauty of birds and beasts frolicking.
Five Bird Drama (8 Realms of Divine Transformation, 8%)
Turtle Breath Gong (7 realms are miraculous 27%)
In the two months since he came to the Giant Whale Gang, Su Changkong has gained a lot, and the five fowl drama has reached the 8th realm, and it is very difficult to make progress at all, this is still the reason why he took the Forging Body Pill, Su Changkong feels that it is already rare for the five fowl to practice to his level, and some changes may need to be made in order to produce qualitative changes in a short period of time!
The progress of the turtle breath gong is relatively rapid, and there has been great progress in just two months.
The main reason is, of course, because of taking pills.
The accumulation of true qi takes time to cultivate, but taking a elixir that can increase power is indeed a shortcut to save effort and time, and Su Changkong has taken more than a dozen precious qi enhancement pills before and after these two months.
In the Giant Whale Gang, let alone an ordinary disciple, even that core elite is not so extravagant!
The identity of the alchemist, coupled with Gong Zheng's suggestion, he was able to take one or two pills from the refined pills every few days.
Not only can you practice alchemy, but also take the benefits, this is indeed a good errand!
As a price, Su Changkong had to refine the pill every day and supply the pills from the Giant Whale Gang, like Gong Zheng, he didn't have a chance to leave until he was old, and it was not so easy to leave!
Of course, Su Changkong is not Gong Zheng, he will be arranged for his life at will, and if he wants to leave in the future, he will also help the Giant Whale Gang bring out a new alchemist to take over like Gong Zheng, and repay the kindness he received from the Giant Whale Gang before leaving.
The time came to the beginning of the month, and in the morning, Su Changkong did not practice the five poultry operas this morning, but came to the medicine house early, because today was the day when Gong Zheng left.
Gong Zheng taught him alchemy without any secrets, and now that he is leaving, of course Su Changkong has to give him a ride.
Gong was carrying his bags, and there was excitement and apprehension on his face.
In the past, he had been alchemy in the Giant Whale Gang, even if he occasionally went out, there were disciples of the Giant Whale Gang to follow and protect him, but now he is completely free.
But for Gong Zheng, who has lived in the Giant Whale Gang for most of his life, leaving a familiar place and starting a new life is a little apprehensive after all.
"Okay, don't send me anymore."
Gong Zheng was sent to the door, and Gong Zheng smiled at Su Changkong.
"Well, take care all the way." Su Changkong nodded, watching Gong Zheng say something to the disciples guarding the gate of the Giant Whale Gang, and the disciples of the Giant Whale Gang then let him go, letting Gong Zheng leave, and his back gradually disappeared.
"I'm going back to alchemy."
Su Changkong retracted his gaze and returned to the alchemy room, now that Gong Zheng is leaving, he has officially taken over Gong Zheng's position and become the alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang!
In the alchemy room, the alchemy was until the afternoon, when Su Changkong packed the refined pills, and every day a special disciple of the Giant Whale Gang would come to collect and inspect it.
And Su Changkong, as usual, went to the chef of the Giant Whale Gang for dinner.
"Master Su."
Along the way, I saw Su Changkong's Giant Whale Gang disciples wearing white alchemy suits, and they all greeted each other very friendly.
They knew that now that the alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang had been replaced by this young 'Master Su', it would not hurt to have a good relationship with this young man who was proficient in alchemy!
Su Changkong sat down in a corner, the kitchen was similar to a canteen, and there were also tables of Giant Whale Gang disciples in groups of three or five next to the other tables.
Su Changkong nibbled on a meaty chicken thigh, replenishing his consumption and physical strength.
"Did you hear that...... Today, the Giant Whale Gang found a corpse ten miles away, and I heard that it was Master Gong's ......"
"Master Gong? Isn't he in the gang? How could it have been killed? ”
However, at this time, the whispered words of the two giant whale gang disciples at the table next to him made Su Changkong stunned.
Gong Zheng ...... He's dead? ”
Su Changkong was stunned, he also sent Gong Zheng to leave the Giant Whale Gang during the day, but suddenly heard that Gong Zheng was dead?
"Master Gong...... How did he die? ”
This made Su Changkong couldn't help but stand up, looking at the two Giant Whale Gang disciples who were eating, and he forcibly suppressed his emotions.
"Who is he?" The conversation was interrupted, and a young man on the right looked over with some displeasure.
And the other man with a national character face saw the robe Su Changkong was wearing, recognized his identity, and hurriedly pulled the young man.
The man with the national character face thought about the wording for a while, looked at the left and right and no one was paying attention to this side before he spoke: "I also heard from others, someone found a headless corpse ten miles away from the Giant Whale Gang at noon today, and the head of this corpse seemed to have been torn alive, and it was missing, and even the heart was dug out alive, and the method was very cruel...... Judging by what he was wearing, Master Gong should have left. ”
"Headless corpses...... The heart was gouged out?" Su Changkong stood in place, his complexion changed irrepressibly, and there was sadness and anger in his heart.
If it was a passerby who died, then Su Changkong would not have much mood swings, but it was Gong Zheng who died! Gong Zheng, who taught him alchemy and took a lot of care of him!
"The head was torn alive and the heart was gouged out...... Ordinary people don't kill people so cruelly, could it be that demons do it? ”
Su Changkong didn't lose his cool, he inexplicably thought of the woman in white who was suspected of being a demon that he had encountered in the ghost market that night, the other party was digging people's hearts and eating them raw!
It inevitably made Su Changkong wonder if Gong Zheng had encountered a demon and was killed.
But if you think about it carefully, there is something strange in it, he was killed not long after leaving the Giant Whale Gang, and it was a demon who killed him, and the combination of the two is too small! The murderer deliberately did this, and it is not necessary to confuse the public!
But in that case, why not just destroy the corpse?
Seeing Su Changkong's changing face, the man with the national character face comforted: "Master Su, you follow Master Gong to learn alchemy, and you will mourn and change, this matter has already made many hall masters in the gang angry, and the deputy gang leader has spoken in person, and will track down the murderer at all costs, and he will definitely pay the heaviest price for Master Gong's funeral." ”
Gong Zheng's death did cause a lot of commotion within the Giant Whale Gang.
Gong Zheng worked hard for the Giant Whale Gang to make alchemy for decades, but as a result, he just resigned, and not long after leaving the Giant Whale Gang, he was brutally killed, which will undoubtedly make outsiders think more, and even the disciples in the gang will have a whisper, and the Giant Whale Gang will do their best to investigate this matter!
"Hmm...... I know. Su Changkong restrained his emotions, nodded slightly, and sat back in his original seat, but the sumptuous meal on the table made him a little tasteless.
Gong Zheng died tragically, and Su Changkong, who had received Gong Zheng's favor, undoubtedly did not feel good in his heart, although he was not so angry that he lost his mind.
"Let the giant whale help me investigate this matter, I'm also a newcomer, and I don't know more than others."
In the end, Su Changkong sighed.
Gong Zheng was killed as soon as he left the Giant Whale Gang, and there are too many guesses about the identity of the murderer, it may be done by demons, it may be that hostile forces deliberately blocked the Giant Whale Gang, and it may even be that Gong Zheng offended some people in the Giant Whale Gang and was killed by his own people!
Su Changkong has just been in the Giant Whale Gang for two months, he knows too little and has no way to judge, the best thing to do is to do nothing, wait for the result, maybe there will be no result!
Gong Zheng's death caused a lot of waves in the Giant Whale Gang, and even Su Changkong, who was in contact with him, had someone come to ask about the situation, and Su Changkong also answered truthfully, Gong Zheng had a deep relationship with him, and he really didn't know much.
But with the death of Gong Zheng, the world continues to run as usual, and life still goes on.
It was already the next morning, but there was a person waiting in the alchemy room of the medicine house that morning.
This is a young man who is one or two years younger than Su Changkong, he has a shy smile on his face, and when he saw Su Changkong coming, he said: "Master Su, my name is Liu Geng, and I also know a little bit about medical skills and pharmacology, and I am here to assist Master Su in alchemy." ”
Su Changkong frowned and said, "I don't need other people's assistance. ”
Su Changkong Alchemy has always been alone, and he is indeed not used to someone who does not understand to assist him, and maybe it will get in the way.
The young man who called himself Liu Geng said with a look of embarrassment: "Master Su, it was the deputy gang leader who asked me to come...... I can't disobey either. ”
Hearing this, Su Changkong probably understood something, Liu Geng's coming to assist him in alchemy was fake, and to put it bluntly, he was here to monitor him.
Su Changkong has just become the alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang, and the Giant Whale Gang doesn't trust him much, so it is normal to send this Liu Geng to keep an eye on him to prevent him from messing around, or being too guarded and stealing, and Gong Zheng was treated the same before.
"Okay, then you can stay and help me."
In the end, Su Changkong nodded in response, knowing that forcibly driving Liu Geng away would only make the two sides more distrustful, and his face was ugly.
"Thank you Master Su for your understanding! I have a bit of a problem with my eyes, Master Su has worked hard to refine the pill, there are some things I can't see, and I won't talk nonsense everywhere! ”
Liu Geng thanked him with gratitude on his face, and at the same time hinted at Su Changkong, as long as Su Changkong concentrates on alchemy and can satisfy the Giant Whale Gang, even if he is a little bit guarded and stealing, it doesn't matter, he will turn a blind eye.
Otherwise, the disgruntled Su Changkong only needs to deliberately fail a few furnaces of alchemy often, then the loss of the Giant Whale Gang will not be small, and it will be time-consuming and laborious to train a new alchemist, so it is better to give Su Changkong some benefits, so that he will be grateful to Dade and willingly do things for the Giant Whale Gang!
"Start alchemy, you help me make a fire for the Dan furnace to warm up." Su Changkong didn't talk nonsense, and directly started a new day's alchemy.
As Liu Geng said, he didn't say anything about Su Changkong occasionally taking one or two Cheng Dan, not only that, Liu Geng is also very diligent, helping Su Changkong to watch the fire and fight hard, and he seems to be a quite qualified assistant!
