Chapter 20: Touching the Mountains
Fifty-five bottles of Bigu Dan, thirty bottles of Zhongmiao Pill.
This is the result of Luo Chen's month.
He only refined fifty bottles of Bigu Dan, and the extra five bottles were the legacy left by that short-lived ghost.
And thirty bottles of Zhongmiao Pill are a bit of an unexpected joy.
This time, three pots were successful, and the quality was inferior.
Putting the pills on the bluestone slab, Luo Chen crossed his hands on his hips, looking forward to today's big set.
Chen Laodao still came a little later than him.
Seeing Luo Chen, his old eyes were full of resentment.
Fifty spirit stones!
I took it back last time, and I was borrowed back by this kid.
He has already made a plan, no matter how hard Luo Chen tries to talk today, he must get that loan back!
Certain!
"Xiao Luo, your alchemy skills are profound!"
The corner that was evenly given to Luo Chen before has never been full.
But today, it is densely packed with jade bottles, and there must be fifty or sixty bottles, which are almost full.
It can be seen that Luo Chen's alchemy skills must be profound again.
Luo Chen smiled, "This is all thanks to Chen Daoyou's generosity, otherwise I wouldn't have the capital to refine more pills." ”
"Hmph, it's good that you kid knows." Chen Laodao snorted lightly, and then said solemnly: "I borrowed you from you before, but I have to return that spirit stone to me today." ”
"Definitely, definitely!"
Luo Chen looked like he had borrowed and repaid.
Chen Laodao's expression is a little better, he is in debt, he really doesn't think about tea, and the food is not fragrant!
Suddenly, he snorted.
"Huh!"
"Xiao Luo, are you at the fourth level of the Qi refining period?"
Luo Chen was curious, "How do you know?" ”
"The old man has practiced the spiritual eye technique, and looking at the qi and observing the spirit is just a small Taoist ear." With a word of self-satisfaction, Chen Laodao was a little puzzled, "Aren't you a five-spirit root qualification, you can actually break through the middle stage of qi refining at this age." ”
Spiritual Vision, a low-level spell, can use aura to make the eyes more clear, and at the same time have the ability to look at the spirit.
Among the low-level spells, together with the Fireball Technique, the Wind Resisting Technique, the Traction Technique, and the Healing Technique, they are known as the five major spells in the Qi Refining Period.
Unfortunately, except for the Fireball Technique, none of the other four Luo Chens will not.
The winding technique and the fireball technique were both obtained by the original owner's adventures back then.
The cleansing technique was just one of the most rubbish spells, and he had exchanged it for a bottle of Bigu Dan at the bazaar.
Chen Laodao looked at Luo Chen, his expression was a little strange.
I probably didn't expect that one day, Luo Chen would be the same as himself, a mid-stage Qi refining cultivator.
Although there is no difference between the mid-stage and early-stage monks, the upper limit of spiritual power in the body can be directly doubled!
All kinds of combat means can also be displayed calmly.
The early monks were in Dahefang, but they were at the bottom.
If you don't have a skill, you can only engage in helping with chores and being sent by others.
But in the middle period, it is different, you can join all kinds of forces and receive all kinds of well-paid tasks.
It can be said that the monks in the middle stage of qi refining really have the capital to live in Dahefang City.
Facing the old man's doubts, Luo Chen just smiled and said that he was lucky.
In fact, this is just the way it should be.
A bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill provided him with a large amount of aura, allowing his progress bar to be pulled directly to 96/100.
The rest of the aura required was obtained by him in the past 20 days or so, using the perfect-level Changchun Gong, plus soothing incense, day and night penance.
Break through to the fourth layer of gas refining, and the water will come naturally.
Helping Chen Laodao set up the talisman skin, Luo Chen pointed to the location of Wang Yuan's usual stall with some confusion.
"Brother Wang hasn't come to set up a stall recently?"
"Don't you know what happened in the outer city lately?" Chen Laodao looked at him strangely.
Luo Chen looked confused.
"That's right, you live too far away, if you don't pay attention, you really don't know."
Chen Laodao explained to himself, and then said meaningfully: "Recently, the Dajiang Gang and the Lianyun Business Alliance have formed an alliance. ”
"Isn't that normal?"
Lianyun Business Alliance is a well-known scattered cultivation force in the Yuding Domain, and the industry covers all the large and small markets in the Yuding Domain.
The main business is to transfer and sell natural materials and earth treasures from all over the world, and earn the difference in price.
Among them, it is inevitable to involve the business of transportation.
As mentioned before, storage bags are not something that ordinary casual cultivators can have, and to do this kind of bulk business, a few storage bags will not play a big role.
Therefore, Lianyun Business Alliance has always had a good cooperative relationship with the local Dajiang Gang.
The Dajiang Gang is living on the Lancang River in the area of Dahefang City.
Since ancient times, Caoyun has been one of the most profitable businesses in ancient and modern China and abroad, and the industrial chains involved are countless.
It is really normal for Lianyun Business Alliance to choose to form an alliance with the Dajiang Gang for in-depth cooperation.
Chen Laodao shrugged his shoulders, "But it's not normal for the Dajiang Gang to have the heart to get involved in the business in the mountains." ”
"Business in the mountains?" Luo Chen asked in surprise, "Isn't that the realm of the Mountain Breaking Gang?" ”
"Whew!"
Chen Laodao sneered, "What kind of mountain-breaking gang, the millions of mountains in the Eastern Wilderness are the territory of demon beasts, and the six great sects of the extreme east dare not say that it is their business." ”
"Uh......"
"Let's put it this way, the Dajiang Gang has taken a fancy to several safe paths explored by the Breaking Mountain Gang in the past hundred years."
Chen Laodao likes to talk about gossip and gossip, after all, these things are not valuable.
Even sometimes, when encountering foreign high-level monks, these messages can be taken out to earn a few spirit stones.
He inquired very clearly, and the Dajiang Gang was serious.
At first, he sent people to explore a safe way into the mountain, but suffered heavy losses.
Later, he started the way out of the mountain-breaking gang.
The Broken Mountain Gang was naturally unwilling, and then there were various conflicts.
A month ago, the magic weapons that Wang Yuan sold were the trophies seized by the monks of the Broken Mountain Gang, who killed the people of the Dajiang Gang in the mountains.
Now the conflict is getting more and more intense, and the struggle between the two sides is no longer limited to the mountains.
At night in the outer city, there is a fight between two gangs from time to time.
Luo Chen listened to these gossips, and his brain moved.
"You specifically mentioned the alliance between the Lianyun Business Alliance and the Dajiang Gang before, could it be that the actions of the Dajiang Gang were instigated by the Lianyun Business Alliance?"
After this question was raised, Luo Chen's mind turned faster.
"By the way, all kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures, demon beast flesh and blood that the Broken Mountain Gang hunted are all sold to the major forces at a high price. Lianyun Business Alliance is not a sect force, and they will naturally not be satisfied with those prices. ”
"Now that I have formed an alliance with the Dajiang Gang, I also want to raise an opponent who will compete with the Broken Mountain Gang for food."
"If it really succeeds, then the price for them to buy resources will be much smaller in the future."
Chen Lao Dao snorted.
"You're not stupid, I think so too. Otherwise, the Dajiang Gang would not move sooner or later, why would they start the idea of the mountains before and after the alliance. ”
After approval, there is a deep sigh.
The two gangs did this, making the already unsafe outer city even more chaotic.
There are even some casual cultivators mixed in it, taking advantage of the fire to rob, and those honest casual cultivators will suffer.
"Wang Yuan has been very famous recently, guarding the mountain road, killing five or six mid-stage monks, and even beheading a monk of the eighth level of Qi refining in the Dajiang Gang."
"I didn't come today, it's normal."
Chen Laodao shook his head, "If it goes on like this, I plan to move into the inner city." ”
"Xiao Luo, what about you?"
Luo Chen fell silent.
The place where he lived was in the most remote southwest corner, adjacent to the Xiaoyue Mountain Range, but it was far away from the Guyuan Mountain Range and the Great Snow Mountain, where the Mountain Breaking Gang was the main activity.
If there is a conflict, it should not affect him either.
But just in case!
"Let me take a look at it again, the rent for living in the inner city and the deposit for renting a house are not a small amount."
It is not easy to live in the city.
Living in the inner city is not something that ordinary casual cultivators can afford.
Sighing and packing up his mood, Luo Chen squeezed out a smile and greeted today's guests.
"Zeng Daoyou, good morning, on the hour?"
"On the hour!"
