Chapter 201: Investigation and Temptation
Ji Chen's words seem to reveal some of his origins.
This dragon tour elixir refined for an old friend of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, could it be that this Miaochun real person came from the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate?
Are there still such characters on the territory of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate?
Mu Chun Gongzi and Kang Luan Immortal King couldn't help but have these thoughts in their hearts.
They didn't stay any longer, and hurriedly left the Lonely Crane Mountain City and returned to the Gate of Life and Death.
The emergence of a new eight-grade elixir master may break the pattern of the pill business in Lonely Crane Shanfang City, which makes several of the best pill shops in Defang City, especially Danding Pavilion, have a sense of crisis.
Someone tried to buy the elixir of the Miaochun Danlou in the name of the eight-rank elixir, and was surprised to find that the effect of the elixir of the Miaochun Danlou was simply invincible.
So, after the news spread, the pills in Miaochun Danlou were quickly snapped up, and even the inventory accumulated by Ji Chen was completely emptied.
Wanpeng Demon Venerable is now very proud, and he went to the surrounding shops to hang out, and now every shopkeeper saw him, his attitude was much more enthusiastic, and his expression was not without envy when he looked at him.
"Brother Wan Kun, the business is so good, and you still have time to come out?" The shopkeeper of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion asked with a smile.
"The pills have been robbed, there is no need to sell them, and it is okay to stay in the store." Wan Peng shook his head and sighed.
Before, I had no business, so I could only hang out, but now it is sold out.
The shopkeeper of Baibao Pavilion half-jokingly said: "Brother Wan Kun, you are not authentic, your boss is an eight-grade elixir master, and you don't give me a thorough explanation." ”
"The boss of our family has always been low-key, and he has been an eight-rank elixir master for many years, but he has been living in seclusion in the territory of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect before, and he has never only refined pills for a few acquaintances."
"Oh? Then how did you come to suddenly come to our lonely mountain city and open this Danlou? ”
"This ......" Wan Peng's face changed, he shook his head, and did not answer.
……
On the other side, Mu Chun Gongzi and Kang Luan Immortal King returned to the Gate of Life and Death.
The two acted separately, Mu Chun Gongzi went directly to his father Mushan Immortal Emperor, while Kang Luan Immortal King went to find his backer, a top immortal in the door of life and death, one of the Taishang elders.
When Mu Chun Gongzi saw his father, he was also extremely respectful, first bent down and saluted, and then told everything about Miaochun Danlou.
Emperor Mushan Immortal seems to be about the same age as Mu Chun's son, both of them are personable young people, of course, the actual age is not known for a long time.
After listening to Mu Chun's story, he said, "Show me the pill you bought." ”
Mu Chun Gongzi hurriedly presented his remaining few Mengdao Pills, as well as some other pills he bought in the Miaochun Dan Building.
Emperor Mushan Immortal's divine sense swept over, and after carefully studying it for a long time, he said, "There is no problem with the pill, you can take it with confidence." ”
Then he asked, "Who else knows about this but you?" ”
"There is also the Kang Luan Immortal King who is in charge of procurement." Mu Chun Gongzi replied.
Emperor Mushan Immortal nodded: "You step back first, I will deal with this matter." ”
After Mu Chun's son retreated, Mu Shan Immortal Emperor waited for a while, his divine sense dispersed, and he instantly contacted another Immortal Emperor in the Gate of Life and Death, Gu Hao Immortal Emperor.
Kang Luan's backer is a Supreme Elder in the Gate of Life and Death, and this Supreme Elder is a member of the faction of Gu Hao Immortal Emperor.
Sure enough, as expected by Emperor Mushan Immortal, Emperor Gu Hao Immortal had already learned the news from his subordinates at this time.
The two Immortal Emperors exchanged their Divine Senses for a moment and had already made a decision on this matter.
An eight-rank elixir master plus a top-level immortal venerable, such a figure appeared near the gate of life and death, which was already worthy of their attention.
First of all, it is important to find out his origin, determine his origin, and then analyze the purpose of his coming to Lonely Crane Mountain Fang City, and then decide what measures to take against this mysterious Miaochun real person.
Whether it is to attract and solicit, or to establish cooperation, or to arrest, or to directly exterminate.
It all depends on the results of the investigation.
Soon, Kang Luan Immortal King and Mu Chun Gongzi were instructed by the two Immortal Emperors, and as the first two to contact Miaochun Zhenren, they were assigned this task.
"Investigate Miaochun Zhenren?"
Kang Luan Immortal King frowned slightly, the task he received was to go to the Lonely Crane Mountain Fang City to investigate and visit, and search for relevant information about Miaochun Zhenren.
At the same time, he also tried to get in touch with Miaochun Zhenren and establish a cooperative relationship to purchase pills from Miaochun Danlou.
It's just that the pills purchased from the Miaochun Danlou can't be directly entered into the sect's treasure house, but must be handed over to the Immortal Emperor for inspection before they can be put into the warehouse.
Mu Chun Gongzi also received a task assigned by his father, asking him to use the intelligence network of the sect to investigate the origin of Miaochun Zhenren and his past deeds.
The two of them immediately went into action.
Kang Luan Immortal King's task was not difficult for him, after all, almost all the shopkeepers in the entire Lonely Mountain Fang City were friendly with him, and they all stammered him, and it was absolutely easy for him to inquire about some news, and those shopkeepers definitely knew everything.
The only difficulty is probably to get in touch with Miaochun real people and establish a cooperative relationship with Miaochun Danlou.
After all, it seems that Miao Chun real person doesn't look very good at talking.
Kang Luan Immortal King once again went to the Lonely Mountain Fang City, and visited the entire Fang City, and he went over to chat with each shop owner.
After all, it was a task personally assigned by Lord Gu Hao Immortal Emperor, and he didn't dare to slack off.
But in this city, most of the shops don't know about Miaochun Danlou, and the shops near Miaochun Danlou are only known from Wanpeng's mouth because Wan Peng often goes to the door.
The news that Kang Luan Immortal King heard from these shopkeepers was the same, saying that Miaochun Zhenren used to live in seclusion in the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, and later for some reasons he did not want to mention, he chose to come to the realm of the Gate of Life and Death and opened this Danlou.
It is said that this Miaochun real person is extremely Buddhist, and after opening this pill shop, business is not good and there is no hurry. Later, the business was good, and the pills were not enough to sell, so I was still not in a hurry.
This has to be put on hold by other families, it must be working overtime to refine the pill, but anyone who is a little ambitious will recruit a few more elixir masters to help him refine the pill together, and find a way to make this Miaochun Danlou bigger and stronger.
But this Miaochun real person is good, the pill is sold out, and not a single pill has been replenished to this day, saying that he has just refined the eight-grade elixir and needs to rest for a while.
Kang Luan Immortal King didn't think there was anything, maybe it was a common problem for the elixir masters who had reached this realm, and the eight-grade elixir master in Danding Pavilion was also a virtue, otherwise he would not refuse the solicitation of the door of life and death, and he would be a shareholder of a pill shop in Fang City.
Kang Luan Immortal King didn't know whether the information he had found out was true or false, but it was enough for him to take it to the business, it didn't matter if it was true or not, just let the Immortal Emperor judge it himself.
Subsequently, Kang Luan Immortal King came to the door again and visited Miaochun Zhenren.
This time, I didn't eat behind closed doors, and soon saw Ji Chen.
Ji Chen heard that the Life and Death Gate wanted to establish a long-term cooperation with Miaochun Danlou, and behaved lukewarmly, and said: "Cooperation is okay, the price will not drop, all the pills are clearly priced, and the specified pill type is not accepted, if you want to specify the pill, you will be charged according to the refining of the pill on your behalf." ”
The implication is that it is not that if you want any pill, I will refine it for you, but what pill I refine, you will look at it.
If you want to designate me to refine a certain elixir, I'm sorry, add money.
And it's not even a little bit more, Kang Luan Immortal King knows how expensive Ji Chen's refining pill is.
Not only are they required to provide materials, but they are also paid for the value of the elixir.
Kang Luan Immortal King was a little speechless, what is the significance of such cooperation? If you don't give a discount, and you can't specify the pill, it's better to buy it directly in the store.
However, now the pills in the store are not enough to sell, and it is true that they can't grab them, and if they can have the right to buy the Miaochun Danlou pills first, it will be good.
Of course, Kang Luan Immortal King is mainly to complete his own task.
In the end, Kang Luan Immortal King negotiated a cooperation with Miaochun Danlou on behalf of the Door of Life and Death, and every time Ji Chen refined the pills for sale, they had the right of first refusal, and they could only pick the rest to be sold in Miaochun Danlou.
Correspondingly, they must buy at least seventy percent of the pill each time, otherwise the cooperation will be terminated.
After the cooperation was negotiated, Kang Luan Immortal King began to talk to Ji Chen about something else, and inquired about some things in Ji Chen's past.
However, Ji Chen didn't seem to want to mention the past, and Kang Luan Immortal King asked for a long time and asked about loneliness.
Ji Chen didn't want to say it, Kang Luan Immortal King had no choice, in front of Ji Chen's top Immortal Venerable, Kang Luan Immortal King didn't dare to be presumptuous.
In the end, he could only retreat obediently, and before leaving, he pulled Wan Peng to chat for a long time, trying to open a breakthrough from Wan Peng, but this Wan Peng's mouth was also very tight, and the information revealed was limited to them coming from the realm of Wan Demon Gate.
Kang Luan Immortal King returned to the door of life and death, Mu Chun Gongzi immediately came to the door and asked him about the results of his investigation, Kang Luan Immortal King did not dare to hide it, and told all the news he got.
On the territory of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, was there really such a person before?
Kang Luan Immortal King and Mu Chun Gongzi both had such thoughts in their hearts.
However, this also allowed Mu Chun Gongzi to find the direction of the investigation, and immediately, he launched all the intelligence networks of the Life and Death Gate in the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate to investigate Miaochun Zhenren.
In order to prevent the other party from using a pseudonym, he also added some other information, such as the eight-rank immortal elixir, such as the top immortal venerable.
Presumably, there are not many people who meet these two conditions.
A week has passed in the blink of an eye.
To Mu Chun's surprise, the two conditions of the Eighth Rank Immortal Pill Master and the Top Immortal Venerable did not investigate any suspicious characters, but the name of Miaochun Zhenren really did not exist.
There is indeed a Miaochun real person who has been active in the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, but this person is very mysterious, and he does not leave much information, only that he once sold some low-grade pills in a remote small market, and some people have a slight impression of him, but they know very little, and they don't even know where his cave mansion is.
"Keep looking!" Mu Chun Gongzi ordered.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed, and after the cooperation between the Gate of Life and Death and the Miaochun Danlou, the first batch of pills purchased was personally brought back by the Immortal King of Kangluan.
In the past month or so, Ji Chen has refined a lot of pills, most of which are relatively common pills, which can be used more or less in the Gate of Life and Death, so Kang Luan Immortal King did not choose them, and took them all.
After being inspected by Emperor Mushan Immortal, it was confirmed that there was no problem with this batch of pills, and all of them were included in the treasure house of the Life and Death Sect.
Of course, the Mengdao Dan among them was cut off by Mu Chun's son.
And the investigation of Miaochun Zhenren led by Mu Chun Gongzi has finally made new progress.
According to the patchwork of fragmentary information investigated, it can be known that Miao Chun Zhenren is indeed a low-key loose cultivator hidden in the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, and his true strength is impossible to verify, because almost no one has witnessed him make a move, and it is certain that he is indeed familiar with the way of alchemy, but there is no way to know what the level of alchemy is.
The information about Miaochun Zhenren can be traced back to tens of thousands of years ago, when he had been haunted by some small and medium-sized markets in the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, and it seems that he has always made a living by selling pills.
Until recently, the spies of the Gate of Life and Death inquired that Miaochun Zhenren still had a few friends in the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate.
And these friends seem to be all good at cultivation.
It's just that one of them offended a demon emperor of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect more than a year ago, and finally died suddenly, and the cause of death is unknown.
"Could it be that Miaochun Zhenren also escaped from the realm of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate and came to the territory of my Life and Death Gate because he offended that Demon Emperor or was implicated by his friends?"
Mu Chun Gongzi thought about it, according to the information he had gathered, this Miaochun real person really didn't seem to have any problems, he was a low-key reclusive powerhouse.
A top-level Immortal Venerable plus Eight-Rank Immortal Elixir, if he has a personality and likes to keep a low profile, it is not unreasonable, especially in the territory of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, which is the territory of demon beasts, it is difficult for humans to be trusted, even if they are powerful, they may not be able to be reused.
Moreover, the strong human beings are generally not willing to serve the demon clan.
Subsequently, Mu Chun Gongzi reported his investigation results to his father, Emperor Mushan.
Emperor Mushan Immortal just nodded to indicate that he knew, and then said nothing.
……
After another half a year like this, Miaochun Danlou and the Gate of Life and Death have been cooperating, and more than ninety percent of the pills refined by Ji Chen have been bought by the Gate of Life and Death.
As a result, there are almost no pills for sale in the store of Miaochun Danlou, and the display cabinet is empty all year round.
Those monks who had seen and heard of the magic of the Miaochun Danlou pill had no chance to experience it for themselves, and they couldn't buy the pill at all.
In the past six months, the elixir that Ji Chen sold to the Gate of Life and Death has never been checked for any problems.
This seems to have made the door of life and death trust him more.
Finally, when Kang Luan Immortal King came to purchase the elixir again, he threw an olive branch to Ji Chen and invited him to join the Gate of Life and Death and serve as the Supreme Elder.
But Ji Chen directly refused.
Does the Gate of Life and Death really trust him?
Ji Chen is not sure, who knows if this invitation is another test for him?
If you really want to invite him, at least the Immortal Emperor should come in person, a Kangluan Immortal King is obviously not qualified.
Moreover, Ji Chen had no intention of joining the Gate of Life and Death.
