Chapter 172: Hypocrisy
At the station of Aoyue Palace in Xianyuan City, many people were busy nervously, and soon someone sorted out a list of suspects and handed it over to Shi Yuji.
If Xu Ping is here, he will find that he is in the top ten on this list, and he is also a key suspect.
"Senior Sister Shi, we have drawn out thirty-eight suspects, these people are like rats one by one, they are either masked when they go to the store to trade, or they have already changed their faces."
"Thirty-eight?" Shi Yuji glanced at it, and then began to instruct the other Aoyue Palace disciples, "Search me one by one, and I must not let anyone go." ”
……
After three days, the number of people on the list gradually decreased.
In the end, only seven or eight suspects remained.
"Senior Sister Shi, we have done our best, no matter how we search, it is impossible to find out the rest of the people."
"Really? You guys screen it again and weed out all the people who showed up in Xianyuan City half a year ago. ”
Under Shi Yuji's reminder, there were even fewer people on the list, leaving only Xu Ping and a person named Zhao XX.
"Zhao xx, a monk in the late stage of Qi training, came to Xianyuan City half a year ago, is good at refining weapons, was favored by Zhenbaotang, and wanted to absorb him as a guest of Zhenbaotang, but he rejected ......"
"Xu xx, a monk in the late stage of Qi training, also came to Xianyuan City half a year ago, and he is good at making talismans, he has only traded in Wanhua Pavilion, and he has not seen this person in other shops......"
Xu xx...... Good at talismans? Shi Yuji's eyes lit up, she took Xu Ping's information and read it again, and soon determined that Xu Ping was the person they were looking for now.
"It must be him, track me down immediately!"
With Shi Yuji's order, the disciples of Aoyue Palace all began to take action, trying their best to track down Xu Ping's whereabouts.
But since the end of the auction, Xu Ping has fallen like a stone into the sea, and he can no longer be found in Xianyuan City.
More than ten days have passed, and there is still no information.
Many people were very discouraged, thinking that Xu Ping must not be in Xianyuan City at this time, and it was possible that he had already escaped that day.
"Run? Where does he run? Shi Yuji had a different opinion, she thought that it was impossible for Xu Ping to escape, but on the contrary, it was possible to hide in an unknown place.
But where exactly will Xu Ping hide?
At this time, Xu Ping felt a little unsafe, and after moving, he bought another yard where Du Jia lived.
There must be another place to escape.
After arranging all this, Xu Ping returned to the place where he originally lived and began to cultivate step by step.
After a few days, Xu Ping didn't know how many materials he wasted, and finally made the first second-level talisman!.
Then there's the question of talisman proficiency.
It's just that he was stared at very closely by the disciples of Aoyue Palace, and it was inconvenient for Xu Ping to sell the spirit runes in his hand in Xianyuan City.
Without enough spirit stones, it was impossible to guarantee the bloodline of other attributes, so Xu Ping had no choice but to come up with the idea of other skills, such as alchemy or refining.
After careful consideration, Xu Ping decided to make alchemy in the future and create the image of an alchemist in the eyes of his neighbors.
After thinking about it, Xu Ping bought an alchemy starter set, a medium-grade alchemy furnace and ten low-level elixirs, as well as a copy of the first solution of the Danshu, which contained seven or eight low-level pills.
Start with the Bigu Dan, which is a pill often taken by immortal cultivators, and it is also the most basic pill.
Alchemy +1
Alchemy +2
…….
As Xu Ping's alchemy skills continued to increase, Xu Ping quickly refined two or three basic pills, no longer limited to Bigu Dan, and correspondingly, the pill bottles around him also increased a lot.
On this day, when Xu Ping refined a Gathering Spirit Pill, he stretched his waist and walked to the courtyard to move.
Suddenly, a warning came from the gate of the courtyard, Xu Ping swept his senses and found that an acquaintance had come to visit.
"Rashly visited, Xu Daoyou, don't be surprised."
The person who came was Lu Sihai, a monk in the foundation building period who came to Xingshi last time to ask about his sin, and this time he maintained a respectful attitude.
"No wonder, Lu Daoyou, please inside!"
Xu Ping welcomed the person into the courtyard and sat down.
"Xu Daoyou, where is the servant in your house?"
Xu Ping said: "Servant? It's all some mortals, and I'm not used to it, so I sent it away a few days ago! ”
"Yes, as an immortal cultivator, how can you let some mortals serve you, or I will recommend some low-level handymen to come over and help you take care of the courtyard?"
"Lu Daoyou, it's still not necessary, I'm usually busy with cultivation, and I don't want people to disturb my cultivation."
"Cultivation should also pay attention to the combination of work and rest, Xu Daoyou, what are you usually busy with? Alchemy, or talisman ......"
"Lu Daoyou, let you laugh, I know how to do alchemy, but now I'm just an alchemy apprentice!" Xu Ping said embarrassedly, after all, he was already a foundation building period monk, and he didn't even get mixed with the junior Dan master, so it was a bit embarrassing to say it.
After finishing speaking, Xu Ping took out the bottle of Gathering Spirit Pill that he had just refined today and let Lu Sihai appreciate it.
"First-class mid-grade Gathering Elixir? The quality is good, Xu Daoyou, don't be presumptuous, in time, you will soon be able to refine a high-grade elixir and become an alchemist. ”
"Thank you Lu Daoyou for your compliment, how can my alchemy technique enter your eyes, and the alchemist doesn't dare to expect it."
"Xu Daoyou, you are too modest!"
Lu Sihai and Xu Ping exchanged two words, and finally said the main purpose of his visit today, "Xu Daoyou, last time I invited you to participate in the auction, why didn't you go?" ”
"Lu Daoyou, the last time you sent me the certificate to participate in the auction, I happened to be in retreat and cultivated, and when I finished cultivating, I found that the auction had ended, so I was very angry and drove away several irresponsible servants."
"I see! What a pity! ”
"Yes, it is said that there is a superb alchemy furnace that appeared at the auction, and now that I think about it, it makes people regret it......"
Xu Ping's face showed an expression of great regret, as if he wanted to get that superb alchemy furnace very much.
"I didn't participate in the last auction, and there will be a ...... next time" Lu Sihai comforted: "I came this time, I want to invite you to participate in the exchange meeting held by the City Lord's Mansion, maybe at the exchange meeting, you can exchange the alchemy furnace you need." ”
The so-called exchange meeting is actually a kind of trading gathering in which the monks of the foundation building period exchanged goods for goods. Of course, there are also some like-minded immortal cultivators who can exchange their cultivation experiences.
"When will the exchange meeting be held?"
"Three days later, the Linglong Pavilion will be held on time!"
Lu Sihai took out a certificate of the exchange meeting, handed it to Xu Ping and said, "Xu Daoyou, don't delay this time!" ”
"Thank you Lu Daoyou, I will definitely not make any more mistakes!"
Lu Sihai completed the purpose of his visit today, did not continue to stay, and left in a hurry after saying goodbye to Xu Ping.
After seeing Lu Sihai walk away, Xu Ping's face that was still smiling just now instantly became cold.
"I can't imagine that the people of the Aoyue Palace have begun to suspect me by moving so quickly? Still looking for someone to test me? ”
