Chapter Fifty-Six: Rapid Growth
After returning that day, Meng Zhou continued his unfinished business.
The light talisman has advanced from the grandmaster to the perfection.
Meng Zhou slapped the first consummation-level light talisman on himself, he felt an invisible force wrapping himself, his body became lighter and lighter, and his feet couldn't feel the weight of his body at all.
Meng Zhou performed the magic step dragon again, and the experience became clearer.
He felt that at this moment, he was completely integrated with the space around him, his body was light and fluttering without any weight, and when his body moved rapidly and changed, he could not feel any resistance from the air.
Coupled with a variety of consummate martial arts and body techniques, his figure is really fast as a ghost and elusive.
It wasn't until an hour later that the special effect of the Perfect Light Talisman wore off
Both the power and the duration are clearly beyond the scope of normal light talismans.
Meng Zhou couldn't help but think of the changes in other skills after they stepped into consummation, and there were some faint thoughts in his heart.
"The skills I have practiced, whether they are martial arts, spells, or talismans, are all imitations of certain phenomena in the heavens and earth, or records of certain perceptions of the heavens and the earth.
This is the premise of the lineage, and the wisdom and experience of the predecessors have been condensed in these records.
However, this brings a problem, that is, the reference of later generations is not those phenomena or perceptions themselves, but the facsimile records left by predecessors.
It's like a previous person who saw a tiger and drew it.
The object of the latecomers learning to copy is not the real tiger, but only this tiger painting.
If the latecomer can't get out of this layer of obstacle, even if his intelligence is better than that of his predecessors, he will never be able to truly surpass his predecessors. ”
"When the grandmaster reaches perfection, what he breaks is this invisible but real obstacle."
"Skills first, skills later."
"Break the tiger painting, and see the real tiger."
……
As the light talisman entered the consummation, Meng Zhou suddenly found that the cultivation task, which was originally so compact that every second counted, suddenly became easier.
In addition to continuing to crack the rubbing stone carvings, only the Flying Arrow Talisman, the Ice Talisman and the improvement of the Imperial Sword Technique remained.
After thinking about it, Meng Zhou didn't go to learn new talismans for the time being, and devoted more time to the cultivation of the imperial sword technique.
With the cultivation breaking through to the seventh layer of Qi training, the mana is far more abundant than the sixth layer of Qi training.
This already provided convenience for the leveling of the swordfight, plus he spent more time on it, and his daily harvest has been significantly improved, increasing his experience by +70.
The day after the light talisman was consummated, the sword art successfully crossed the threshold between the master and the grandmaster.
When Meng Zhou thought that this day was going to be spent so peacefully, a paper bird flew from a distance and fluttered in front of his stone gate.
This caught his attention, and Meng Zhou opened the stone door, stretched out his hand, and beckoned the paper bird into his hand, turning it into a piece of stationery.
There was a scribbled text written on it, and Meng Zhou couldn't help muttering after reading it:
"This old Chu, what kind of plane is he doing?"
Although he thought so in his heart, he still went to Yu Peng's stone room next to him.
Yu Peng opened the door and saw Meng Zhou, and said strangely: "Uncle Zhou, why did you come here at this time?" ”
Meng Zhoudao: "Your teacher didn't tell you?" ”
"Say what?" Yu Peng was curious.
At this moment, a paper bird flew from a distance, directly turned into a piece of paper and landed in the palm of Yu Peng's hand, he opened it and looked at it, and was immediately taken aback, and quickly introduced Meng Zhou into the house.
The two of them didn't wait long before they saw a boat-shaped magic weapon cut through the void, quickly approaching from a distance, and appeared in the sky above the Sitting Forget Hall.
This movement directly attracted the attention of the Zaoban Museum.
The four monks had swept out of the Forgotten Pavilion and stopped in front of the boat.
"Hu Cai", who is now the proprietor of the Sitting Forget Pavilion, has a tripod-shaped magic weapon hanging above his head, facing the Dharma Boat with a shocked face.
He shouted, "Who is coming?" Come out and speak! ”
A figure jumped out of the magic boat, and this person was Chu Zheng.
He came to "Hu Cai" and whispered a few words with him, and "Hu Cai's" attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.
Not only waved his hand to let the other three people who had formed a siege on Fa Zhou evacuate, but also helped to take the initiative to guide Fa Zhou to Yu Peng's stone chamber.
At this moment, Yu Peng had already heard the movement and opened the stone door, and when he saw Chu Zheng, he immediately jumped in front of him and asked, "Teacher, are you okay?" ”
"I'm fine." Chu Zheng shook his head and asked Yu Peng again, "Is Uncle Zhou here?" ”
Yu Peng nodded: "The others are inside." ”
Chu Zheng nodded, strode towards the house, and explained: "Go and bring in those injured people on the Fa Zhou." ”
Yu Peng boarded the boat and took a look, only to see six broken arms and lame bodies lying in the boat, covered in blood, he was stunned for a moment, and moved to the house one by one.
The "Hu Cai" next to him was also very enthusiastic and moved into the house one by one.
In the house, Meng Zhou and Chu Zheng didn't say a word, but they saw Yu Peng and "Hu Cai" carrying the wounded into the house one after the other.
Yu Peng gently put the wounded patients away, then turned around and went out of the house to move the remaining wounded patients.
On the contrary, "Hu Cai" didn't leave after putting the two injured patients down, and listened to the two of them talking next to him, with a casual and natural expression.
Seeing this, Chu Zheng felt a little strange, but he didn't say anything.
If it was another stranger, of course he would feel wary, but "Hu Cai" is the landlord here, so it naturally feels very different.
Meng Zhou glanced at "Hu Cai" twice, and also didn't say anything.
Chu Zheng said to Meng Zhou: "Brother, I'm sorry for you!" ”
Meng Zhou nodded, didn't say anything more, glanced at several injuries, and chose the one with the most serious symptoms.
He first used treatment and rejuvenation to stimulate his heart and lungs, and he was like being awakened by a basin of warm water.
He just woke up, looking at Meng Zhou in front of him, his eyes were full of confusion.
Next to him, Chu Zheng hurried over and introduced:
"This is Pharmacist Zhou, and he is treating you right now. If he commands him, you must cooperate well! ”
The man nodded heavily, and the blankness in his eyes quickly vanished, replaced by eagerness and anticipation.
And next to him, "Hu Cai", who was silently watching, thought in his heart: "I still have to forcibly wake people up and ask, it seems that the level of the pharmacist this week is also very average." ”
Meng Zhou didn't care what others thought in their hearts, with such a fresh leveling material, it would be a waste to chew one bite less.
He began to consult and then examine, and only then began treatment when he was no longer able to provide new experience.
This is a piece of cake for him.
This person's injuries looked serious, but compared with the stubborn diseases he had diagnosed and treated before, as long as these new injuries were not fatal and fatal injuries that would kill immediately, for him, they could only be regarded as superficial and were the best to solve.
When he got up with the gains of +120 for consultation and +120 for inspection, the six injured were already sleeping peacefully in a row.
At the time of diagnosis and treatment, Meng Zhou used all kinds of methods very restrained, and while completing the diagnosis and treatment, he did not exert any strength.
Problems that could have been easily solved with a complete treatment technique, but he only used half of them, and the rest needed to be healed by themselves.
After completing the treatment of these six injured patients, Meng Zhou was about to ask Chu Zheng for a detailed experience, when another magic boat swept from a distance and landed in front of Yu Peng's stone room.
A large man leaped out of the boat, but the most striking thing was the position of his chest near his heart, from which gurgling blood was flowing, it was a wound pierced by a sharp blade such as a flying sword, and it was a large outflow of blood controlled by the contraction of muscles.
Seeing this, Chu Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Du He, are you okay?" ”
The man he called Du He said, "I'm fine! ”
"You still say it's okay, if this wound is a little more off, your life will be gone!"
Du He grinned: "This is a flaw that I deliberately sold, if it weren't for that, I would really let the thief run away!" ”
Chu Zheng heard this, and hurriedly asked, "You slaughtered the leader of the robbery cultivation?" ”
Du He hummed, took out a head from the storage bag and threw it to Chu Zheng, Chu Zheng saw it and quickly dodged away.
But Du He laughed as if he had succeeded in a prank, and Chu Zheng said to Meng Zhou with a gloomy face:
"Brother, you show this guy, if he can't die, let him get out of here, it's not a good thing to stay with this kind of vulgar thing for a long time."
Du He didn't care at all about Chu Zheng's disparagement of him in his words, but looked at Meng Zhou, his eyes became eager, and he hurriedly asked, "You are Pharmacist Zhou?" ”
Meng Zhou nodded.
"How about me and Sheng Tang?"
When Meng Zhou heard this, his body froze.
Du He continued: "You can mention any conditions! ”
As he spoke, he looked around at the stone room environment and said with a disgusted expression:
"As long as you nod your head, beautiful lady of the mansion, we can give you the best, and we will not let you live in such a shabby and dilapidated place again."
As soon as he said this, Yu Peng, Chu Zheng, and "Hu Cai" all didn't have a good face.
On the contrary, Meng Zhou came to his senses, turned his head and asked Chu Zheng: "Who is he, who can actually represent the entire Hesheng Hall?" ”
Before Chu Zheng could answer, Du He replied directly:
"My name is Du He, all the brothers carry love, and now I am the master of the hall of Heshengtang.
Pharmacist Zhou, don't worry, every word I say can represent Heshengtang! ”
Meng Zhou hadn't answered yet, and Chu Zheng frowned directly.
"Du He, shut your stinky mouth!
Do you still want to work with the association? ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Meng Zhou and said, "Brother Zhou, don't pay attention to what he says, I promise, he will never dare to mess around!" ”
Meng Zhou nodded, his expression calm.
His heart is also calm.
Regarding the guarantee made by Chu Zheng on behalf of the association, he did not believe it too much, nor did he disbelieve it too much.
His biggest confidence, and the biggest difference, is that today is different from the past.
Now he is in the late stage of Qi training, plus the grandmaster-level swordsmanship.
The upper limit is also only the Warm Cloud Valley force in the late stage of Qi training, and it is really difficult to make him feel pressure again.
So, he smiled and began to treat Du He.
Seeing this, Du He smiled a little wryly, and said to Chu Zheng: "There are still a few seriously injured companions in my Dharma Boat, you go and get me in." ”
Chu Zheng turned his head and said to Yu Peng on the side: "What are you doing in a daze, don't go quickly." ”
"Huh? Oh! ”
……
Yu Peng brought back five injured patients from the Fazhou, including Du He, and Meng Zhou once again received +120 for the consultation technique and +120 for the inspection technique, and then completed the diagnosis and treatment of them.
After the diagnosis and treatment, Du He didn't stop long, and stuffed most of his companions who were still sleeping into the Dharma Boat and took them away in a boat.
Before leaving, he also ordered 1,200 lower grade spirit stones and handed them to Meng Zhou, wanting to use them as a consultation fee.
When counting the spirit stones, it could be clearly seen that his face twitched slightly.
It is true that the consultation fee for one person is not much, but if more than a dozen people are added together, it is really not a small amount.
Especially the net worth of non-professionals, most of them are relatively tight, and every spirit stone is exchanged for sweat and even blood.
Taking out so much at once, even if you go to the public account of the grand hall, as the hall master, it is inevitable that the flesh hurts.
After Meng Zhou took all the 1,200 spirit stones, he returned another 200.
Du He looked at Meng Zhou in disbelief, surprised and delighted, feeling like he had won the jackpot.
Seeing that Du He and the others were going away with the magic boat in the sky, and "Hu Cai" had already said goodbye and left, Meng Zhou asked Chu Zheng:
"What the hell is going on? How did you hook up with Sheng Tang? ”
Chu Zheng said: "Didn't I listen to your advice!" ”
After his explanation, Meng Zhou knew what he was busy with these days.
It's also very simple, it's to go to a first-order spiritual vein called Red Pine Ridge to do some reselling business.
Its model is to use the convenience of the Professionals Association to mobilize a large number of professionals, and transport a large number of ready-to-sell low-level talismans, pills, and magic weapons to Hongsongling to sell a large number of them, turning them into a small amount of spirit stones and a large number of raw materials.
These earned raw materials were once again turned into various finished talismans, elixirs, and magic weapons.
This model may seem simple, but the profits are amazing.
And it has been successfully proven to be a feasible method, although there are not many spirit stones directly earned, but this is the result of the association's intentional control.
What they really earn is those raw materials.
With a steady stream of raw materials poured into this cycle, the professional associations are finally starting to function.
And Heshengtang, which has strong combat effectiveness but lacks heritage, is the first partner carefully selected by the association.
They provide armed security to associations that lack combat power, ensuring that the entire cycle can run safely and smoothly.
The reason why he suffered this sudden attack, Chu Zheng was obviously also reflecting.
The moment concludes:
"Two reasons.
First, there is a lack of force.
Although Heshengtang's combat power is not bad, he has not put all his strength into it, not to mention, in terms of what we have done, relying on Heshengtang's family alone, the strength is still lacking.
Therefore, it is necessary to bring in more collaborators and increase the security force.
The second is to ignore the local forces in Hongsongling.
Although those ambushed monks were all pretending to be robbery cultivators, this was the hinterland of the Qingxuan Domain, where did they come from so many catastrophes?
It must have been our actions that attracted the jealousy and jealousy of the local forces in Red Pine Ridge, and our appearance did have an impact on the existing local order.
To solve this problem at the root, it is necessary to let a part of the profits come out and find a strong enough local force in Red Pine Ridge to cooperate.
Well, although there are not many professionals in Red Pine Ridge, and their quality is far inferior to ours, we might as well develop them into peripheral members of the association.
Give them more reasonable growth guidance, and they can't be unmoved.
In this way, we will have more hands in Hongsongling, and we will be safer and more calm. ”
He is very good at drawing inferences from others, and spreads the scope of "collaborators" directly from Warm Cloud Valley to farther places.
After listening to Chu Zheng's narration, Meng Zhou said in his heart, this guy's growth is really fast, he can already summarize and reflect on himself and find a direction in the chaos.
And the same rapid growth is also the professional association.
