Chapter 35: The Catastrophe of the Spirits
Looking at Han Qingmei's regretful back, Meng Zhou said to Chu Zheng, who was speechless beside him: "Rival in love? ”
Faced with Han Qingmei's request to introduce a friend to come here for treatment, Meng Zhou did not directly agree, but pointed to Chu Zheng next to him, "You have to discuss this matter with him." ”
Seeing this, Han Qingmei didn't say much at all, shook her head regretfully, and walked straight away.
And Chu Zheng's performance was equally strange, standing next to him without saying a word, with a straight face, even if she left, he didn't say hello.
Seeing such a strange atmosphere between the two of them, Meng Zhou immediately realized that Han Qingmei should have told Chu Zheng about this before trying to communicate directly with him, and was stopped by Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng sneered and said, "What kind of love enemy, you have to have love before you have an enemy, do you look at Han Danshi's appearance, it seems that he has love for me?" ”
"Oh!" Meng Zhou nodded abruptly.
"What's that look on your face?" Chu Zheng immediately said: "I screened out that person because he didn't meet the standards you set, but there was no personal emotion in it." ”
"Is this man in trouble?" Meng Zhou was curious.
"It's a good thing, you know, it's the kind of thing that has to give you the whole thing out when it's okay."
Speaking of this, Chu Zheng suddenly said depressedly: "Why do you say that people are so weird, Han Danshi is good at everything, but why is his vision of people so bad?" ”
Meng Zhou squinted at him, and said in his heart, what this old guy really thinks should be that she is not close to me as a good person, but she is good friends with the kind of goods I don't look down on, is she stupid or blind?
Seeing his expression, Chu Zheng said, "If you think it doesn't matter, I can bring him over next time." ”
"Don't!" Meng Zhou hurriedly waved his hand to end the topic.
……
After the day's consultation, Meng Zhou went to Wang's rice shop again.
Of the five hundred and forty runes he had purchased from Wu Tong before, four hundred and fifty had now been turned into cleaning talismans by him.
Coupled with the successive breakthroughs in cultivation and fundamental exercises, the ability to digest spiritual substances has become stronger, and the consumption of Lingmi Ling Tea has also become more, and it needs to be replenished.
However, it is precisely because of the abundant supply of Lingmi Ling Tea that his daily cultivation progress has an additional +1 in addition to the stability +6 brought by the Fundamental Exercises.
Seeing Meng Zhou enter the door, Wang Wei seemed to see his father, quickly threw down the affairs in his hand, and invited him into the back room.
"Master Zhou, you're finally here, I thought you forgot about me."
It's been nine days since the last trade, and it's no wonder he's looking to see through.
Meng Zhou didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly took out one hundred and sixty cleaning charms.
"Are they all cleansing charms?" Wang Wei smacked his mouth.
"What, don't accept it?" Meng Zhou asked.
"Of course not!"
Wang Wei directly ordered 136 lower-grade spirit stones to Meng Zhou on the spot according to the price agreed on last time.
It was much more crisp than the last time, and it was obvious that he had been waiting for Meng Zhou to come to the door for a long time.
Before the 136 spirit stones were in his hands, Meng Zhou spent another thirty, ten of which were purchased for fifty catties of medium spiritual rice, and twenty for five taels of medium spiritual tea.
Out of Wang's rice shop, Meng Zhou found Wu Tong again, and spent a hundred lower grade spirit stones to buy four hundred and fifty runes.
The one hundred and sixty spirit stones sold by the Cleansing Talisman had not yet been heated, and there were only six left.
In fact, in the sealed spirit box of the storage bag, there are still two hundred and ninety cleaning charms.
But Meng Zhou didn't have the idea of making a move, because these were all works after his mastery of the cleaning talisman reached the master level.
Before the level of cleaning talisman production was promoted to the master, the effect of each progress was an increase in the speed of talisman making, making his talisman making efficiency faster and faster.
However, after becoming a master, in addition to the increase in the speed of talisman making, the bigger change comes from the increase in the power of the cleaning talisman.
The cleaning charm was originally just the most ordinary first-order low-grade talisman, but the master-level cleaning talisman has a quality that is between the lower grade and the middle grade, and the price is naturally different from the ordinary cleaning talisman.
Meng Zhou estimated in his heart that even if it was packaged and wholesaled, the price of each piece could be nearly twice higher than that of ordinary cleaning talismans.
If it's just a small number of shots, it doesn't matter, but if the number is too large, it's a little too eye-catching.
Therefore, as long as the income can wipe out the expenses and the daily cultivation is not affected, these talismans Meng Zhou does not plan to make a move.
It's just that this way......
"Gotta find a way to get a bigger bag."
Meng Zhou has tried his best to plan reasonably, but the space of the storage bag is so small, and the available space is becoming smaller and smaller.
On the way back, Meng Zhou's mind was basically useless on the road, all thinking about various things.
He has been going back and forth for I don't know how many times he has been going back and forth this way, and he has long been familiar with everything along the way.
His figure was like a fish swimming in the sea, catkins in a hurricane, not far from the market, entering a dense forest, about to cross through, but Meng Zhou suddenly stopped his speedy figure.
Just in front of him, an old man in a green robe stood with his hands behind his back.
Seeing Meng Zhou, who was looking at him vigilantly, he smiled heartily and said, "But pharmacist Zhou in person? ”
Meng Zhou's eyes froze, "Who are you?" ”
The old man smiled: "It's also fate, the old man is also surnamed Zhou, you can call me Lao Zhou, or call me Zhou Quan." ”
"You're here to wait for me?" Meng Zhou asked.
Zhou Quan bowed his head, brushed his beard and smiled: "Exactly." ”
"What?"
"The old man has a chronic disease, I want to ask Pharmacist Zhou for diagnosis and treatment, you can rest assured, the consultation fee will definitely satisfy you!" Thoughtful and thorough.
"I'm sorry, you have to talk to Chu Zheng about this, I have an agreement with him, I am only responsible for governance, as for who to govern, he has the final say."
After that, Meng Zhou adjusted his direction slightly, and he was about to leave from the side of his body.
Seeing his movements, Zhou's whole body suddenly became light as if it was blown by the wind, and it was just right in front of Meng Zhou.
Meng Zhou's expression immediately cooled down, staring at Zhou Quan, without saying a word.
Zhou Quan didn't seem to know how offensive his behavior was to a cultivator, and he explained to himself:
"I looked for it, but he didn't agree, this old guy has always been a little prejudiced against me!
I also asked Master Han Dan to talk to you directly for me......"
Speaking of this, he clapped his hands in annoyance and said, "It's also that I didn't think it through, and I didn't know that you had an agreement with that old guy Chu Zheng, and with him present, of course you can't agree to anything." ”
"So, you're going to come here to block me personally?" Meng Zhou said lightly.
Knowing that this person was the "friend" in Han Danshi's mouth, Meng Zhou couldn't help but complain in his heart, Yan Gou, it really doesn't matter age and gender.
If you don't look at this person's words and deeds, it is just the first impression, and it is indeed far more brilliant than Chu Zheng.
But Meng Zhou's perception of this person is how bad and how bad it is.
Zhou Quan didn't seem to be able to hear Meng Zhou's dissatisfaction, and said with a very reserved smile: "Isn't this to let you see my sincerity." ”
Meng Zhou continued to ask, "Are you familiar with my whereabouts?" ”
Zhou Quan answered all questions and said, "It's also a coincidence, I found out when Chu Zheng's old guy invited Han Danshi to his courtyard for the first time, so I paid special attention to it." ”
Meng Zhou Zhengse said: "Do you know that your behavior like this makes it difficult for me to have a good impression of you." ”
Zhou Quan said helplessly:
"But what can I do, ask Chu Zheng to be accommodating in person, but he doesn't agree.
Please Han Danshi to speak, you don't agree.
I don't figure out how to meet you myself, so what should I do? ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Quan looked at Meng Zhou and suddenly said, "Pharmacist Zhou, do you know that you were deceived by someone surnamed Chu!" ”
"Oh? How did he lie to me? ”
"I don't know why you made such an agreement with him, but the result is that you are healing and saving people, and he is using the agreement with you to make a lot of favors and benefits!
You are the one who really makes a difference, but he is the one who can benefit the most, do you think this is fair? Is this reasonable? ”
He was there to fight for Meng Zhou, but he didn't know, but Meng Zhou took the initiative to give it up.
"I know that you are looking for someone to cooperate in order to devote more energy to the advancement of the pharmacist path, and not to be distracted by complicated chores.
But I have to say, you're in the wrong place.
If you work with me, you will definitely get more! ”
Hearing this, Meng Zhou's heart was completely cold, but his face became softer.
"Oh, I'm curious, what will you bring me?"
"You know Heshengtang, right?" Thoughtful and thorough.
"Yes." Meng Zhou nodded.
On the first day he came to Nuanyun Valley, someone from Heshengtang sent him a business card and wanted to buy "dirty goods" from him, how could he not know, he really knew too well.
Moreover, he still knows that He Shengtang is now the rookie leader in the Warm Cloud Valley, and he is attacking the order built by the old forces.
This is a kind of drama with a fixed periodic law in the Warm Cloud Valley, which happens every ten or twenty years.
Meng Zhou's heart swirled with these thoughts, but Zhou Quan began to enthusiastically sell his plan:
"Although the strength of Heshengtang is strong, its background is much worse than that of the old forces of Baiyitang and Zhenfu Pavilion.
I won't be as petty as the surname Chu, it's just a little family, of course, I also know his concerns, he is afraid that after you are known by more people, you will no longer be able to keep your cash cow!
I'm different!
I will introduce you to Heshengtang, believe me, you will definitely be treated as a guest by Heshengtang! ”
That kind of situation, Meng Zhou can fully imagine, compared with Shengtang and several other big forces in Warm Cloud Valley, the most lacking thing is that there is a gap in the profession, whether it is quality or quantity, there is a gap.
And if you can pick up a pharmacist now, you can attract many professionals who are troubled by occupational diseases.
The heritage of Heshengtang will increase dramatically as a result!
Meng Zhou stroked his hands and praised: "You are so smart, you can actually think of such an idea...... Have you communicated with He Shengtang about this? ”
Zhou Quan saw Meng Zhou's attitude change, so he also echoed and smiled: "How come, if I communicate with He Shengtang now, will the credit be mine or surnamed Chu?" ”
Speaking of this, he smiled awkwardly, "Well, I won't hide it from you, if this thing can be done, He Shengtang will definitely be indispensable to my benefits." ”
Meng Zhou smiled and said, "Understand...... Oh, do Han Danshi know about these things? ”
Zhou Quan opened his mouth and didn't speak, just smiled awkwardly.
Meng Zhou nodded: "I'm relieved." ”
Zhou Quan is a little confused, are you relieved? What can you rest assured of?
At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong wind behind him, Zhou Quan's heart was awe-inspiring, and the aura shield protected his body, and at the same time he turned around and looked back, but saw that another Meng Zhou was close at hand, and the long sword in his hand was so fast that it seemed to turn into a light.
From this sword, Zhou Quan felt a strong threat of death.
He had already shot three defensive talismans in a row.
The sword light that gave him a strong threat finally dropped to a bearable level after breaking through three defenses in a row.
The doubts that had been suppressed in Zhou Quan's heart resurfaced.
"This is Pharmacist Zhou? And who is the one who speaks to himself? ”
He didn't even have time to think about why the other party had such a strong killing intent towards him.
The next moment, his mind stopped at this moment.
A small sword had pierced through his brow after piercing his skull back and forth.
After making a turn in the air, he flew back into Meng Zhou's hand again.
Meng Zhou put away this first-order high-grade flying sword from Mo Shao, walked quickly to Zhou's body, which was full of brains and eyes, quickly dealt with the scene, and then disappeared into this jungle with him.
