017: The olive branch of Jinzifang
The door opened, and there stood a beautiful woman with a face like a hibiscus and eyebrows like a long willow, a pair of eyes that were seductive, and the skin like snow was slightly pale and sickly, but it was even more delicate.
Chen Dengming looked at the rather enthusiastic next-door neighbor in surprise and said, "Sister Xu...... What's the matter? ”
The charming woman is also a congenital martial artist, named Xu Wei, who has had the most contact with him in the past month or so.
On the first night he slept after coming to the gathering place, this woman gave him food.
He did not forget the other party's gift of food afterwards, and often gave back some fish to the other party, but the two never met at that time.
It wasn't until Chen Dengming officially received the right to live in the shantytown, and the house that happened to be assigned became neighbors with this woman, and the two gradually became familiar with each other.
It's just that Chen Dengming has been practicing hard and living in a simple place, and the many interactions between the two are all due to this woman taking the initiative to find him enthusiastically.
Chen Dengming originally thought that the purpose of this woman was to let him take care of her business more.
After all, the other party is also a person who works at night in the nearby Jinzifang, and there are new customers nearby, so it is normal for this woman to take the initiative to develop her business.
However, after touching it many times, this little bit is his chatter about how difficult it is for a woman to crawl at the bottom of the immortal cultivation world, and never enter the more direct material topic.
Chen Dengming is also a person with a group of wives and concubines in the mortal world, not an emotional first brother.
This woman's eyes and words that casually flashed from time to time made him gradually come back to his senses, and he faintly felt that this woman was afraid that she was looking for a concubine to live with, rather than looking for customers.
Chen Langjun...... The concubine was disturbed, but there was really a happy event to tell. An immortal master in Jinzifang wants to recruit you, so he asked me to come to inform him, congratulations to Chen Langjun. ”
Xu Wei's attitude was respectful, her cherry lips were lightly opened, and her eyes were full of eagerness.
"Oh?"
Chen Dengming's eyes were surprised, and he suddenly noticed something, and his expression suddenly looked at the street opposite behind the woman.
A stocky figure of a man, standing quietly on the corner of the street, saw Chen Dengming's eyes turned, smiling and clenching his fists, his eyes blazing.
"Chen Daoyou, I am Wu Chen of the Golden Word Workshop, Daoyou has been here for more than a month, I must have heard the name of my Golden Word Workshop, I don't know if you would like to join my Golden Word Workshop?"
"Join the ....... of Jinzifang"
Chen Dengming's expression was slightly shocked for a while, his thoughts were spinning like lightning in his mind, but he was actually very calm in his heart, knowing that probably Jinzifang had investigated the origin of his waist card.
It's just that more than a month has passed since this incident, and he didn't think it would be revealed again.
The slight idea of taking advantage of the situation at the beginning was also to resolve some troubles and avoid people disturbing his peaceful cultivation life.
Unexpectedly, now, the monks of the Golden Word Workshop took the initiative to come to the door to solicit them.
In this gathering place of scattered cultivation, there are more than a dozen large and small forces, and the Golden Word Workshop is one of the most powerful.
Many art buildings, teahouses, and even Lingmi shops and many houses in the gathering place are the industries of Jinzifang.
By now, he had also inquired clearly, the Golden Character Workshop was composed of dozens of monks, and there were more than 300 supporters at the innate martial artist level.
The owner of the workshop is a monk who practices qi in the six heavens, and he has some connections with the Locke family, and the profits earned from many businesses every year are not less tribute to the Locke family.
Such a force, after knowing that he has the Locke family's waist card in his hand, is also a normal thing to recruit him.
It's just that the other party would send a monk to invite him personally and call him a Taoist friend, which is too courteous and respectful.
It's not that Chen Dengming is arrogant, but after experiencing a series of contacts with Qi cultivators, big and small, the attitude of immortal cultivators towards mortals is really bad.
Even if Fairy Luo, who treats him well, that kind of estrangement is obvious......
"Chen Daoyou? Is it unwilling? ”
At this time, the stout male monk transmitted the voice again, and looked directly at Chen Dengming with bright eyes.
Chen Dengming came back to his senses, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he hugged his fists and said, "The immortal master personally came to invite, of course the junior will not be unwilling, but he is a little flattered for a while." ”
The stocky male monk laughed when he heard this, and bowed his head with satisfaction, "It's good if you are willing, I can't hide it, this time it is our owner who ordered me to invite me personally, after you join my golden word workshop, you only need to behave well, maybe you can be summoned by the owner in person, and the future is immeasurable." ”
As soon as these words came out, Xu Wei and several neighbors who were alarmed around looked at Chen Dengming with surprise and envy.
To be respected by the owner, and even the monks came to invite him personally, which in their eyes was a step to the sky.
Chen Dengming smiled politely, this kind of kind words in the nature of empty checks, naturally he just knew that he would listen to it.
Originally, he was just going down the slope to get off the donkey, after all, a monk came to invite him personally, and it was impossible to refuse directly.
Besides, there is nothing to lose in this kind of thing, on the contrary, joining one of the forces can also obtain some corresponding protection, but at this time, when he heard that it had attracted the attention of the owner, he couldn't help but muttered in his heart, and asked tentatively.
"Thank you to the owner and the immortal master, it's just that the younger generation is just a congenital martial artist, and I don't know the rules when I first come to your place, I don't know if there is any place where the younger generation needs to serve after joining the Golden Word Workshop?"
Monk Stocky shook his head and smiled, "I am only responsible for inviting you, and as for the specific position and benefits of your joining our Golden Word Workshop, there will be others to discuss with you."
But don't worry, you have to be valued by the owner, and the position and benefits must be good. ”
Chen Dengming breathed a sigh of relief, "I see...... Thank you, Immortal Master......"
After a while, watching the solid monk leave, Chen Dengming looked at the spirit stone in his hand that was handed by Xu Wei, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.
The monk personally invited him, which really gave him a lot of sincerity and face.
But the monk's sense of superiority towards mortals is still clearly expressed.
The other party was talking to him across the street from beginning to end, which seemed polite, but in fact it was just to complete the task assigned by the owner, and even the spirit stones that were given to him as a meeting gift were sent to him by Xu Wei.
It's as if you would get your hands dirty or lose your identity.
"Congratulations to Chen Langjun...... Lang Jun, you have the weight of the owner today, and you will also be expected to be immortal in the future. ”
At this time, Xu Wei congratulated with a smile again, and her beautiful eyes eagerly watched Chen Dengminglian approaching, and the fragrance hit people.
Chen Dengming took a step back and entered the room, shook his head and said, "Sister Xu, you and I are both casual cultivators with no background, and you also know how difficult it will be for us to step into the Immortal Dao with our spiritual root qualifications." ”
Xu Wei was stunned for a moment, and after stopping, he smiled reluctantly, his sickly face turned even paler, and said, "Although it is difficult, this is the only chance to change our fate, at least we all have spiritual roots, don't we?" So many people in this gathering place are still holding on. ”
"You're right." Chen Dengming shook his head.
That's right, all the people in the gathering place, except for mortals who have no spiritual roots at all, who have never wanted to step into the immortal path through cultivation, so as to change the fate of mortals and become a high-ranking monk.
It may be that it is the attitude of the immortal cultivator towards mortals that stimulates many inferior spiritual root people, even if they know that their cultivation is difficult, they still embark on the path of cultivation without hesitation.
is like a scholar from a poor family, even if he comes from a humble and poor background, he does not change his ambition to study.
Chen Dengming glanced at the other neighbors who were smiling in the distance, and then took a deep look at Xu Wei's slightly sickly pale and bloodless face, nodded and closed the door.
Xu Wei looked at the closed door with a gloomy expression, sighed lowly, as if in self-pity, and turned into his house.
The cultivation realm is very cruel, she has already seen it, and it is because of what she has seen that she is even more tired, and she has already come up with the idea of finding a solid shoulder to rely on and live together.
More than a month ago, Chen Dengming moved in as a neighbor, and her background and all aspects of her own conditions made her satisfied and excited.
It's a pity that the distance between her and Chen Dengming is like the door that has been closed, obviously very close, but very far away.
Now this distance, as the other party is valued by the owner, it has become even more distant, which makes her ashamed.
...
At this time, Chen Dengming paced around the room, looking at a piece of lower grade spirit stone in his hand, his eyes showing doubts and thoughts, and a trace of caution flashed in his eyes.
Spirit stones, he is not a monk yet, so he can't use them at all.
It is also difficult for the innate true qi to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone.
Therefore, this item is only money currency for him at the moment, or an alternative stone Gu that has been refined into a Yin Man.
The owner of the Jinzifang gave him a congenital piece of a low-grade spirit stone, which is already a big deal, in order to be not as simple as the waist card in his hand.
The waist card in his hand is just an ordinary waist card given by the Locke family.
This kind of waist card is also held by hundreds of monks and other innate warriors in Fang City, all of whom have served the Luo family and made meritorious contributions.
The only special thing is his waist card, which was given by Fairy Luo.
It is only this relationship that can alarm a cultivator who cultivates Qi Six Heavens.
It's just that he feels a headache and vigilance about this.
Those who are close to the tiger are in danger!
The cultivator of the Sixth Heaven of Qi cultivation is still too strong for him at the moment.
Even if he had killed a Qi Cultivation Dual Heaven cultivator, Chen Dengming was also self-aware, and it was extremely difficult for him to deal with the Qi Cultivation Sixfold Heaven cultivator at present.
No matter whether the other party recruited him, with good intentions or malicious intentions, he didn't want to get too close to this kind of person for the time being, he just wanted to practice quietly.
"I thought I could take advantage of the situation to avoid some small troubles, but I didn't think it would attract a crocodile. It seems that we will have to be more cautious if we want to take advantage of the situation in the future...... In the final analysis, all the uneasiness stems from the lack of strength and confidence, and you have to immediately cultivate to the Qi cultivation period.
In addition, you also have to find time to search for materials for refining the Golden Silkworm Gu.
Once the Golden Silkworm Gu is refined, my life-saving hole cards will be stronger. ”
Although Chen Dengming sighed, he did not regret it.
At present, the owner of the Golden Word Workshop is showing goodwill, which means that the other party is still very afraid of Fairy Luo, and he can be regarded as successful in taking advantage of the situation.
Moreover, the old monk he killed was also from the Golden Word Workshop, and now that the owner of the Golden Word Workshop has recruited him, it seems that the hidden danger of that incident should be in the past.
But now, he feels more urgency.
Placing the spirit stone on the table, a trace of determination appeared in Chen Dengming's eyes.
He had decided to cultivate the "Killing Seedling Pulling Technique" and immediately improve the spiritual root qualification.
Once the Spirit Root qualification was upgraded from a low-grade to a medium-grade Spirit Root, his cultivation speed would be ten times faster.
Originally, it would take more than 900 days to cultivate to the level of Qi cultivation, but after the spiritual root qualification was improved, it would be shortened to just over 90 days......
