"Angry and angry, I want to guard my heart, what does this mean?"

"The effect of the Qi Nourishing Pill is getting worse and worse, should I switch to the Dust Pill?"

"Tsk, I met that monkey the day before yesterday, and he was able to speak people's words, and he was obviously only a first-order. I'm afraid that I ate a Tongyu grass, which is worth five hundred spirit stones, which is really a waste of that beast. ”

In the Haoyue Hall, a group of monks sat in all directions.

Before the people arrived, they chatted with each other.

Or practice and exchange, or share what you have seen and heard recently.

This kind of atmosphere is very difficult to encounter in ordinary casual practice.

It is also in some sect families, and now that the Broken Mountain Gang has been in business for a hundred years, it has gradually had this atmosphere.

Just as they were talking, there was a loud laugh outside the door.

"Fellow Daoists, Xiao Luo is not late!"

With hearty laughter, the tall and handsome man stepped in.

Either because he was holding a scroll in his hand recently, or because of the perennial alchemy, that face looked a little dusty and elegant against the backdrop of the moon-white robe.

Behind Luo Chen, there were Sikong Shoujia and Gu Caiyi, who were also following suit.

The two of them followed closely behind them as if they were accompanying guards, and stepped into the Haoyue Hall.

Mi Shuhua, who was in the first place, opened his eyes and nodded to him.

Luo Chen also nodded and sat down on the chair closest to the door and at the end.

Gu Caiyi stood behind him obediently.

Sikong Shoujia sat at the front, second only to Mi Shuhua.

His eyes swept over Luo Wuving, and he asked, Zhang Shicong and the others, Luo Chen winked at Wang Yuan.

"Now that everyone has arrived, let's start this month's gang!"

Mi Shuhua said, and then looked in Luo Wudi's direction.

As the head of the three major war halls, Luo Wudi has the power to speak on behalf of Zeng Wen and Yang Wei.

"Last month's loss of income has been recorded in the Medal Hall, so I won't say more. I'll just say one thing! ”

"There is an extra gang in Dahefang, and they have begun to encroach on our interests."

"What is our attitude towards this gang, please let the gang leader decide."

Mi Shuhua pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "You are talking about Xuan for a while!" ”

"The helper knows?" Luo Wushu raised his eyebrows.

Mi Shuhua nodded, "This gang was established by the Duan family and the Nangong family in conjunction with the other three Zhuji families. ”

Five Tsukiki families!

Hearing this, everyone raised their heads.

"Xuanyihui doesn't recruit too many casual cultivators, mainly the children of the five Zhuji families. The formation of a gang is also an opportunity for the children of these families to enter the mountains to fight and test. ”

"Other mountain ranges are fine, if you encounter them in the Guyuan Mountain Range, try not to conflict with them."

"On the contrary, if they hunt demon beasts, you can also buy them directly at a low price. If they don't want to, forget it. ”

Saying this, everyone will feel at ease.

The children of the family are different from the casual cultivators, although they are also very important to resources, but they are far less profitable than the casual cultivators.

On the contrary, sometimes it is just to hone the means of fighting and killing demons.

As for Luo Wuyi's encroachment on interests, in fact, it is just some small friction.

In Mi Shuhua's opinion, it's not worth mentioning, as long as it doesn't make a big fuss.

Moreover, there are other gangs outside, which will make the monks of their own Broken Mountain Gang more cohesive, and their usual actions will be more grouped.

"The income of the beast hall this month is not as good as last month, Ke Yuelin, what's going on over there?"

It was not Mi Shuhua who asked, but Mi Junping.

Ke Yuelin's face was gloomy, "A demon peng flew from nowhere, took away a few white sheep, and broke a hole in the beast field, causing a batch of black Shu Feng that had not yet been domesticated to run away. ”

The beast farm of the Broken Mountain Gang was established in a large canyon near the Guyuan Mountain Range, in which the main domesticated beasts were white sheep and black Shu pig, and there were also some small-scale cattle, green mountain foxes, and husband deer.

Usually, the monks of the Broken Mountain Gang hunt live demon beasts, and if they have domestication value, they will also be put in the beast farm.

For example, the Lingyu Lake of Qin Liangchen and his wife is also managed by the beast.

It can be said that the income of the beast field is only below the three battle halls and the medicine hall.

It is much stronger than the Mine Hall and the newly established Jiaotang and Dantang.

Moreover, in a place like this, many low-level and non-combative cultivators can be placed.

Hearing him say this, Mi Shuhua couldn't blame him.

After inquiring, he learned that it was just a first-order demon peng, so he said that he would find a time to arrange it.

Next, the Mine Hall, the Medicine Hall, and even Wang Yuan's Jiaotang all reported the corresponding situation.

Among them, the mine hall suffered heavy casualties.

The reason is that a nest of demon snakes was dug up in a mine, and most of the monks died on the spot.

It seems that mining has been a dangerous thing since ancient times!

In the end, it was Dantang's turn.

Under everyone's gaze, Luo Chen shrugged.

"What do you want me to do? I am only responsible for alchemy, raw material procurement, and pill sales, all of which are in charge of Elder Sikong and Xuntang. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone had to focus on the other two.

Sikong Shoujia's face stiffened, "I'll be blunt, the thirty-person Dan Protector Team has too many people, and Dantang can't afford their salaries at the moment. ”

The implication is that I don't care about those people eating and drinking.

Mi Shuhua shook his head, "You don't need to remove it, you can let those people do the original thing in their spare time." But this number cannot be reduced, and it may increase in the future. ”

Sikong Shoujia was helpless, with this group of people, the spirit stones he received every month were much less.

"Luo Chen, Dantang lost thousands of spirit stones last month, as the master of Dantang, you must give an explanation!"

Mi Junping stared at Luo Chen, her face full of frost.

Luo Chen had a black question mark on his face, "What do you say?" I do my duty to alchemy, and I will sell it to you, and ask me if I lose it? ”

"By the way, you haven't given me last month's dividends yet."

Mi Junping gritted her teeth and said: "You have lost so much, do you still have the face to share dividends?" ”

Luo Chen put away his cynical look and said solemnly: "At the beginning, I said that my dividend was a single pill, and the profit after deducting the cost of raw materials and part of the monk's monthly salary. Last month's loss was not on Zhongmiao Pill, but on Chalcedony Pill. ”

"If you have an opinion, then I can stop refining the Chalcedony Pill in the future and specialize in the Zhongmiao Pill."

Hearing this, Mi Junping hesitated.

Zhong Miao Pill can indeed earn spirit stones, although it is not much, but it is a profit.

But just when she hesitated, Mi Shuhua's voice had already sounded, flat but firm.

"No way!"

"Chalcedony Pill must be practiced, and we must increase investment to strive to refine more and have a better grade!"

He looked at Luo Chen quietly, "In the future, Zhong Miao Pill can even refrain from refining, and refine the Chalcedony Pill with all his might, and the gang will give you the greatest support!" ”

"Dad, but ......"

"Shut up!"

Glaring at Mi Junping, Mi Shuhua squeezed out a smile.

"Luo Chen, you give me a good word, how long will it take to steadily increase the rate of becoming a pill, and even refine a medium-grade chalcedony pill?"

After a month of observation, Mi Shuhua had already determined that the lower grade chalcedony pill would not earn much spirit stone at all.

Even because of the Chengdan rate, the cost has increased greatly.

The chalcedony pill that Luo Chen refined last month took out and sold it, but it was a loss!

A furnace of raw materials is five spirit stones, and a bottle of chalcedony pill sells ten spirit stones.

However, it takes ten furnaces to produce a little more than one bottle, and everyone will calculate this account.

Break the mountain gang, lose everything!

If you want not to lose, you can only increase the rate of Cheng Dan and upgrade the pill.

If it is a medium-grade chalcedony pill, that bottle can be sold for forty or fifty spirit stones.

If you can't afford it, they can sell it in bulk!

Even if it is a low-grade chalcedony pill, if Luo Chen can raise the rate of Cheng Dan to more than half, it can barely be maintained.

Facing Mi Shuhua's gaze, there was a pressure to build a foundation, if there was nothing.

Luo Chen was a little uncomfortable, but as he stayed in this deceitful and profit-oriented immortal cultivation world for a long time, he became more and more accustomed to his role.

and even on various occasions, showing the reaction he should have.

With his facial muscles under control, Luo Chen showed a helpless wry smile.

"Helper, it's really not that I don't do my best, it's really such a thing as alchemy, I can't force it, and it takes a lot of experience to accumulate."

"I know this, so you failed so much before, and I never blamed you."

"Moreover, my cultivation is too low to cope with long-term alchemy."

"Every month, I'll add you another bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill."

Well?

And this kind of good thing?

Luo Chen's heart jumped, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.

He shook his head bitterly, "It's not about the elixir, it's about some confusion in cultivation." Xiao Luo, there is really no one to guide you! ”

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately understood.

Each other is a loose cultivator, and on the way to practice, there is a lot of confusion.

But except for the occasional small gathering, few people can solve their doubts.

Moreover, even when it comes to discourse and communication between monks, there are many reservations.

Luo Chen said tentatively: "I don't know if the helper has any corresponding experience in this regard, but if you can mention me, it must also be very useful for refining the chalcedony pill." ”

Mi Shuhua hesitated, and finally his eyes fell on Mi Junping.

"Ping'er, give that piece of jade to Luo Chen!"

Mi Junping was stunned for a moment, knowing that she couldn't disobey her father.

had no choice but to ruthlessly take out a piece of jade slip from the storage bag and throw it to Luo Chen.

As soon as Yu Jian started, Luo Chen tried to check it, but there was no reaction to the injection of spiritual power.

"This is a jade slip that can only be made by a foundation monk, and it needs to be viewed by spiritual sense. You can't put your spiritual sense out yet, so you can browse it by sticking it to your forehead. ”

Mi Shuhua's voice sounded in his ears.

Luo Chen suddenly realized and hurriedly put it on his forehead.

"Qi Refining Experience", by Mi Shuhua.

In this small jade slip, there is actually Mi Shuhua's lifelong cultivation experience from the early stage of qi refining to the late stage of qi refining.

And there was almost nothing hidden, just some records in the early stage of qi refining made Luo Chen feel a sense of surprise.

Since he was in a meeting, Luo Chen just briefly browsed a little, and then put it away with great importance.

When the others saw this scene, they were all envious.

There are even people secretly who have a fibula, is this Luo Chen really not Mi Shuhua's illegitimate son?

It's so good for him!

If Luo Chen knew this kind of thought, he would only sneer.

I have been drifting all my life, and I have never met the master.

If Mi Shuhua doesn't dislike it, he doesn't mind recognizing a stepfather.

Then, smack him hard!

When the meeting was about to end, Mi Shuhua threw out a message.

"In the winter, Dahefang will hold a large auction according to the custom."

"I have a few places here, if you want to go, you can tell me."

Auction!

It was a place where countless good things would appear, and many Qi Refining Stage cultivators would not necessarily be able to participate in a major auction in their lifetime.

As soon as these words came out, many people's hearts were moved.

Luo Chen's eyes also lit up!

……

……

After the meeting ended, Luo Chen found Mi Junping.

From the other party's hand, he received five bottles of Qi Nourishing Pill, a box of tranquilizing incense, and seven hundred and fifty spirit stones in dividends.

At that time, Mi Junping's face was very ugly.

Even when she practiced back then, she didn't enjoy this kind of treatment, and her father treated Luo Chen better than her own daughter.

Even, she doubted that Luo Chen was her half-brother.

Luo Chen didn't care about this.

He shed blood for the Broken Mountain Gang (knocked out of the Dan furnace during alchemy, and the skin was broken), and he did his best for Mi Shuhua, these are all things he deserves!

Mei Zizi put the things into the storage bag, and Luo Chen beckoned Gu Caiyi to go back to the inner city and start the cleaning.

It's a new month, and Pei Yuan Spiritual Liquid also has to buy medicinal materials.

A box of tranquilizers can only be used for twelve days, and you have to pay for it again.

After some purchases, the wallet, which had finally risen before, suddenly deflated again.

There are only seven hundred spirit stones left in the deposit.

But everything is worth it, and only by increasing the horsepower in this way can we be brave and diligent on the path of cultivation.

The resources have been prepared, and Luo Chen is looking forward to the scenery in the late stage of Qi refining in a month!

……

In the open-air courtyard, the copper pot is erected, gurgling and bubbling on the stove.

It's still Luo Chen's treat today.

Somehow, after Fu Xiuxiu left, Luo Chen took over the work of uniting neighbors.

Every month, please have a meal together to promote harmonious relations between neighbors!

Only this time, other people have contributed some ingredients to a greater or lesser extent.

Qin Liangchen was the most generous, and directly brought a piece of unicorn mutton over.

It is said that this kind of demon beast, unlike ordinary green goats, is in a violent mood and has strong strength.

Its strength is calculated according to the antelope horns on its head, with a first-order single horn and a second-order double horn.

If the first four horns are born, you can become a real beast emperor and a royal sheep.

Under Luo Chen's superb knife work, in this slightly cool autumn night, everyone ate hot shabu mutton.

"Now Dahefang is really different, who dared to hunt a unicorn sheep before, this is the strongest of the first-order demon beasts."

"Who says it's not, the few powerhouses whose names are on the Tianjiao list not only fight with human monks on the Dao platform, but also often go into the mountains to temper themselves."

"I don't know if they're for immortality, or if they like to fight."

"Maybe they all have their own troubles!"

The neighbors were chatting, and Luo Chen also knew some recent changes in Dahefang from these chats.

For example, on the Dahe Tianjiao list, the most famous people are almost all the children of the nearby Zhuji family.

When they came to the stage, they not only involved their own paths, but also represented the prestige of their families.

If someone remains undefeated for a long time, then their family can also be more famous, and take the lead in some cooperation or business struggles and turf struggles.

Luo Chen curiously asked about the follow-up news of the death of the late-stage foundation monk in Ailao Mountain.

But no one can give an exact answer.

Qin Liangchen and his wife said that the matter was over.

Through some of the friends of Tianxiang Building, Gu Caiyi heard that the Master of Jindan in Ailao Mountain had returned to the sect angrily.

However, Bai Meiling said that the elder of Ailao Mountain went to the Jade Ding Sword Sect, and the master asked for guilt.

This last piece of news is the most credible, but also the most ridiculous.

It is reasonable to ask the master of the Yuding Sword Sect to ask about the crime, but you are only a Jindan Sect in Ailao Mountain, how dare you provoke the Yuanying Sect?

Therefore, Luo Chen did not get accurate information.

He didn't care about it either, after all, the matter involving the Zhuji Dan and even the Yuanying Sect had nothing to do with his life.

While chatting, the door of the house was pushed open.

The man with a sword on his face went straight into the courtyard.

He may not have seen this kind of picture of mutton shabu around the hearth, and he hesitated for a while.

Did you go to the wrong yard?

This is not a place where immortal cultivators live, but a secular farmhouse?

The others looked at Duan Feng and struggled with how to talk, but Luo Chen had already gotten up.

"Duan Daoyou, come back so late!"

"Come on, come on, sit down and eat two bites, and get to know other neighbors!"

Luo Chen not only said, but also got started, and pulled Duan Feng to sit down.

Duan Feng was a little uncomfortable, he had always been cold-spoken, and he sat there like a pins and needles.

Under Luo Chen's introduction, the others and Duan Feng knew each other one by one, and Duan Feng did not pretend to be arrogant, and simply informed his family.

"Try this mutton, this is a unicorn lamb, Brother Qin specially bought it."

"I know I killed this sheep."

"Huh?"

Everyone's chopsticks paused, and Duan Feng didn't notice anything.

"If I bought it at a butcher's shop in the west of the city, it should be the one I killed."

Qin Liangchen nodded, he did buy it at the butcher shop in the west of the city.

The atmosphere was cold for a while, but soon it was lively again under Luo Chen's greeting.

"Brother Duan's strength is very strong, even a unicorn sheep can be killed."

"I watched it last time, you are ranked nineteenth on the Tianjiao list, you are really strong!"

"It's fifteen now."

"Huh?"

Luo Chen froze for a moment, and chatted with the other party casually.

After a few contacts, he found out.

This new neighbor named Duan Feng just looks arrogant and indifferent on the surface.

Actually, it's a cold-faced and hot-hearted guy.

He will say thank you, and he will not forcibly refuse the kindness of others, and he can even chat a sentence or two after getting acquainted, although he will often choke people.

Such a person is actually very suitable to be a friend.

usually looks cold, but at critical times, he will not hesitate to help.

Of course, judging a person's temperament is not something that can be done through two or three exchanges.

However, after prostituting mutton for a while, Duan Feng felt a little embarrassed.

He went into his house and took out a few raw eggs.

Even when the door was closed, everyone heard a rooster crow.

"What is this?" Qin Liangchen was suspicious and spit out a name, "Yangwu eggs? ”

Duan Feng snorted, cleaned the egg, and threw it into the copper pot.

Qin Liangchen and Murong Qinglian glanced at each other and smacked their lips.

"This is a good thing, it is said that a spirit stone and an egg will cost you money."

"It's okay, that Yangwu chicken is my mother's inheritance to me, and I can only eat one egg a day."

Duan Feng's tone was normal, but Luo Chen was a little stunned.

Isn't that chicken a rooster?

It's still chirping every morning!

Why does my chicken brother still lay eggs?

However, for Duan Feng's generosity, Luo Chen still has to praise it.

When he first participated in a dinner party, he was a pure prostitute and didn't come out of anything.

Sure enough, honest people are thin-skinned.

Then, when he ate the Yangwu eggs, he felt that they were even more fragrant, and this was the egg laid by my chicken brother.

The aftermath of the dinner was done by Murong Qinglian and Feng Xia.

Gu Caiyi clasped hands on the side, his eyes fell on the three men who were drinking and chatting over there, and sighed lightly.

"I thought that Fu Xiuxiu was gone, and the tradition of having dinner in the courtyard would be gone."

"Unexpectedly, it was Luo Chen who continued."

Murong Qinglian pulled her hanging hair behind her back and smiled gently.

"Xiao Luo is like this, he usually looks at giggling, but he is actually very sensitive. He should like the simple atmosphere in the courtyard very much, and he doesn't want to become a place where the Broken Mountain Gang only talks about interests! ”

Recalling the scene of today's Haoyue Hall gang, Gu Caiyi could only be silent.

It is true that the correspondence between the monks is too complicated.

Interests, power, cultivation resources, and even chances, etc., no one wants to give them up casually, and they always have to be compared.

As a result, it appears cold, naked, and even heartless.

In contrast, although the neighbors are all from all over the world, they get along much simpler and purer.

In the room, Luo Chen walked out of the copper furnace.

Casually draped in clothes, under the wet hair, the eyes are cold.

The cultivation environment at home is not as good as the spiritual vein cave under the Leaning Moon Valley.

Even if there is Pei Yuan Spiritual Liquid and Tranquility Incense, the progress of one night's cultivation is much worse than that in the cave.

"It seems that I have to find more excuses to stay in Dantang."
