Chapter 135: Complete the transaction and continue to dive
Meng Zhou looked at Tu Baiyao, who had rekindled his fighting spirit, and felt joy in his heart, but what should be said should be made clear first.
"How much do you think is such a service and such an opportunity?"
"And what is the value of these materials I need?"
"I appreciated your performance in the last trade, which is why I came back to you this time.
I hope you can come up with a plan for me, and if it works, I can help you with your treatment right now. β
Meng Zhou looked at Tu Baiyao and said such words seriously.
His eyes were full of honesty and trust.
However, what Tu Baiyao felt was pressure.
He understood that the unspoken potential meaning of this "Ge Pharmacist" was that if the plan he drew up could not satisfy the other party, then everything that followed should not be mentioned again.
So, how should we grasp the degree between what is feasible and what is not?
He didn't have to think too much about it, he had the answer in his mind.
From the perspective of "Pharmacist Ge", of course, the fewer shots, the faster the matter is over, and the less tossing is the best.
If you can do it in one day, you must not delay it for more than two days, and if you can solve it in this shop, don't toss it elsewhere.
As a member of the Blue Blood Army, after hearing the "click" of "Medicine Master Ge" just now, he couldn't suppress his emotions and suddenly got up.
It was because he thought of the "old", "weak", "sick", and "disabled" people in the Blue Blood Plain who were similar to him.
Some of them were worse than him, some were only higher than him before they were injured, and some of them had a pivotal position in the Blue Blood Plain.
And the most regrettable thing is that those who are talented, ambitious, young, and discerning people who know that they will have a more brilliant future, but like him, before they can sprint to the sky, they fold their wings and fall from the sky.
At that time, he thought to himself that if he could let this "Ge Pharmacist" go to the Blue Blood Plain, the strength and heritage of the entire Blue Blood Plain would rise a lot out of thin air!
But now, he knows that such a thought, just think about it in his heart.
Soon, Tu Baiyao sorted out the clue in his heart.
"It's not a good thing to think too much.
For now, the most important thing is to successfully complete this transaction and reach a deeper mutual trust with Pharmacist Ge! β
Thinking like this, he began to weigh this issue more from the position of "Ge Yaoshi".
Before that, though, he had to solve an awkward problem that he had to solve first.
"How many spirit stones are the Blue Blood Army willing to give me at most?"
"How much am I worth?"
Only by solving this problem first can he use himself as a reference to determine a relatively clear plan.
This question made Tu Baiyao feel a little difficult at first.
Soon, however, he came to his senses and began to face the problem head-on.
"Now I am not very valuable, everyone respects me, it is more of a personal relationship, not how important and irreplaceable I am in the Blue Blood Army."
"But this is only for now, if I can really do what Medicine Master Ge said, when the state is restored to its heyday, it can be maintained for twenty or thirty years, even if it does not count the future growth, fifty high-grade spirit stones, how can it be worth it?!"
After determining his own value, Tu Baiyao's thinking suddenly became clear.
As "Ge Yaoshi" said, the foundation building monks of the Blue Blood Plain have been fighting with demon beasts all year round, and they have more or less hidden dangers and hidden diseases.
The companions who came to Sanchuan Plateau this time were naturally no exception.
It's just that the situation is not as serious as itself.
The easiest way, of course, is to bring them over from top to bottom, from heavy to light, according to the severity of their cultivation and hidden dangers, and receive treatment from "Ge Yao Shi".
But that process is bound to be cumbersome, and there must be a lot of people.
It is not presumptuous to say that the therapeutic value of other people is far less than that of him.
As far as he knew, it was the most serious hidden danger in the body besides him, and it was just that he originally had the strength of the late stage of the seventh layer of foundation building, but due to the hidden disease in the body, he could only exert seventy or eighty percent, which was equivalent to the strength of the early and middle stage of the seventh layer of foundation building.
Taking his re-transformation from a wasted person to the peak of the eighth layer of foundation building is only worth fifty high-grade spirit stones, this level of recovery is worth five high-grade spirit stones at best.
It is conceivable that it is not an easy task to gather another one hundred and thirty high-grade spirit stones in addition to him.
Not to mention that there are many people and miscellaneous things, which seriously deviates from the needs of "Ge Pharmacist".
The key is that this kind of plan, for the Blue Blood Army, can only be regarded as decent, and there is nothing brilliant about it.
He couldn't help but let go of his mind a little, and shifted his thoughts to the various encounters after the Blue Blood Yuan Exchange Group came to Sanchuan Plateau.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
Looking at the "Pharmacist Ge" who was waiting quietly next to him, he couldn't help but ask:
"Fellow Daoist, in my proposed plan, there is no restriction that the person receiving your treatment must be from the Blue Blood Origin or the Blue Blood Army monk, right?"
Meng Zhou was stunned, and first shook his head, "Of course there is no limit." β
Then, he looked at him and said with a puzzled expression: "Do you want to recommend someone other than the Blue Blood Plain?" β
"Hmm." Tu Baiyao nodded.
"Who?" Meng Zhou was curious.
"Dai Shouli!" Tu Baiyao said.
"Who? Who are you talking about? Meng Zhou was undisguised in surprise, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
Speaking of this, Meng Zhou couldn't help but remind:
"Do you know that this person is the most resistant to you in the Sanchuan Plateau, and the person who is most likely to create obstacles for you!"
"I know!" Tu Baiyao nodded and said, "But because of this, the value of fighting for him is also the greatest!" β
Meng Zhou was stunned, and then nodded slowly.
If you think about it, that's really the way it is.
The local diehards, led by Dai Shouli, were the most disgusted and resistant to the deep involvement of the monks of the Blue Blood Plain into the Sanchuan Plateau.
There is no doubt at all, in the future, this group of people will definitely use all kinds of stumbling blocks in the open and in the dark, and they will be entangled with the Blue Blood Original Monk for a long time.
No matter how strong the foundation of the Blue Blood Yuan is, after all, it is an outsider, and it is impossible to draw a sword at every turn, and the bayonet is red.
If you are passively involved in one incident after another, tired of coping, and your energy and time are consumed in it for no reason, it is very unnecessary.
Converted into spirit stones, it is a significant and continuous loss.
If this had been foreseen at the beginning and Dai Shouli had been "bought" in advance, the situation would have been very different, or even completely reversed.
As long as you understand a little bit about Dai Shouli's temperament and style of acting, most people will probably retreat, thinking that this is simply an impossible task.
But for Meng Zhou, it's really not difficult.
Because for a practitioner, a younger body, a stronger state, and a longer lifespan are the most irresistible temptations.
And with Dai Shouli's age, cultivation, and status, in the face of such a temptation, there will be no resistance.
Tu Baiyao is still looking for more reasons to convince "Pharmacist Ge".
"This man is rich, very, very rich!"
"We have regular exchanges with Sanchuan Yuan all year round, and we know best how rich their net worth is.
Although we will also have a lot of income every year, we will either invest in cultivation, or invest in the elixir magic weapon talisman, and we will be consumed in the fight with demon beasts.
But they are different, a lot of surplus is stored!
And the Dai family is the most of them! β
"In his situation, he is definitely the most willing!"
Meng Zhou's head, old money, has a strange attachment to power and status, but he is about to die, and his life is beginning to count down, such people, in order to be healthier and live longer, they are the most willing to spend a lot of money.
Tu Baiyao's reason is not over.
"And a lot of these materials you'll need are second-order.
Through the coordination of the Sanchuan Society, we were able to mobilize a small amount, but if we were to mobilize a large number of people, it would be impossible to avoid their group of people. β
"Because in the Sanchuan Plateau, more than ninety percent of the top-grade spiritual fields are in the hands of this group of conservative monks headed by Dai Shouli."
Meng Zhou nodded lightly and also reminisced.
If you want to collect a large number of second-order high-grade spiritual herb elixirs in Sanchuan Plateau, Dai Shouli's group of people can't avoid it at all.
In this way, this is really a link that must be solved.
Tu Baiyao saw that "Pharmacist Ge" was still silent, and asked cautiously: "I heard that Dai Shouli and these people did something very unpopular some time ago?" β
This is a subtle inquiry into whether he has a personal grudge against Dai Shouli.
After he asked, Meng Zhou's thinking became clearer.
"Yes, although this person once had the idea of turning Sanchuan Plateau over, wasn't that already slapped back by President Pan."
"There is no grudge between me and him."
"It's really conditioning him to be alive, and the person who should have a headache is not me."
Thinking so, he shook his head and said, "I don't care, but don't be soft, you can't squeeze oil and water at all." β
Speaking of this, he remembered the "cold joke" he heard at the last party in Kan Yue, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
"This old fellow, rich!"
But in his heart, he said silently, President Pan, I'm sorry.
Tu Baiyao nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, we will definitely do our best!" β
Meng Zhoudao: "It seems that you already have a mature plan?" β
Tu Baiyao nodded, "You only need to make three shots." β
"Three times? You once, Dai Shouli once, who else? Meng Zhou was curious.
Tu Baiyao said about the situation of the third person, who originally had the cultivation of the seventh layer of the foundation, but because the hidden dangers had not been healed, he could only exert seventy or eighty percent of his strength, and his cultivation stagnated.
Listening to his introduction, Meng Zhou knew that this was an addition.
It was also used by Tu Baiyao to block the mouth of the Blue Blood Army, otherwise, if he was the only one in the Blue Blood Army who enjoyed such treatment, it would be too special, and the situation would be much better if he brought another person in the later stage of foundation building.
Meng Zhou nodded in approval and said, "Okay, you can arrange it...... I'm not going to Daijiabao, am I? β
Tu Baiyao shook his head, "Then how can it, of course you have to let him come over in person!" β
"Then how do you prove it to him? It's not enough to say it alone, the old guy is notoriously unlistenable. β
Tu Baiyao straightened his chest and said, "What proof do you need?" I'm the best proof of that! β
Meng Zhou was stunned, looked at Tu Baiyao, and suddenly laughed and said: "Tu Daoyou, I'm really tired of waiting for you for a long time, sit down, let's start here!" β
Tu Baiyao hurriedly sat down, his face flashed with joy, and he became serious and serious.
Meng Zhou said: "Take it easy. β
As he spoke, he handed the jade bottle to him and said, "Swallow the pill inside." β
Tu Baiyao poured out the elixir, and a strange fragrance hit his nose, but he was surprised: "Life Extension Pill? β
As he spoke, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Meng Zhou, who was already standing beside him, and said, "Pharmacist Ge, I have already taken the Life Extension Pill after I performed the Burning Life Secret back then. β
Meng Zhou smiled and said: "Don't get in the way, this is my master's secret medicine, it seems to be a longevity pill, but it is actually a longevity pill." β
Tu Baiyao, who was looking forward to it, twitched when he heard this.
"You don't know what I said, but you'll understand it after you swallow it."
Tu Baiyao stared at the elixir in his palm, still opened his mouth, and swallowed it into his stomach.
After this pill entered his abdomen, the rich and pure medicinal power exploded in his body, and at this moment, Meng Zhou's palm was already gently against his back.
A force that made Tu Baiyao feel comfortable quickly seeped into his body through the palm of his hand, and dispersed into his limbs and hundreds of bones along with the explosion of the medicinal power of the elixir.
It's like a barren land that has dried up for more than ten years, and at this moment the sky is raining.
At that moment, Tu Baiyao was so comfortable that he almost snorted softly.
The feeling of rejuvenation made him feel inexplicably moved.
He was completely immersed in this wonderful experience.
I don't know how long later, as the palm against his back left, a voice pulled him back into the present world.
"Alright."
Tu Baiyao slowly opened his eyes, there was still a kind of indulgence and emotion in his eyes, looking at the figure close at hand, and sincerely thanked: "Mr. Ge, thank you!" β
Meng Zhou smiled: "The situation is much better than I expected, conservative estimates, this treatment has restored your life span of thirty-five years." β
This is not only due to his use of pharmacist methods to save people, but also the longevity pill he used for the other party, which is a quasi-consummation pill that Yaya "hatched" and has only one pill.
When Tu Baiyao heard this, he wanted to thank him again, and Meng Zhou said: "You might as well look at your current appearance." β
Tu Baiyao stretched out his fingers, and the cultivation of the peak of the eighth layer of the foundation made him easily cast a water mirror in front of him, hanging in the void in front of him.
Tu Baiyao looked at himself in the mirror blankly, at this moment, he had changed from an old dragon clock to a forty or fifty years old.
This is not glamorous on the surface, he can clearly feel his strength, and he has returned to the peak of his former strength.
No, it is more deep and heavy than the peak of the eighth layer of the foundation back then.
In such a state, he believes that it won't be too long, and after going back, he only needs a little conditioning to try to sprint to build the ninth layer of the foundation!
Meng Zhou saw him stunned and reminded him:
"Tu Daoyou, you prove that I have already opened it.
I hope you'll act soon, but don't keep me waiting. β
Tu Baiyao hurriedly retracted all his thoughts, jumped up and said, "Mr. Ge, wait a minute, I'll arrange it for you right away!" β
While the person was still in the room, he had already flicked his fingers, sending one flying message after another to the outside.
In a few moments, the two Tsukiji monks pushed open the closed door of the shop and strode into the store.
The eyes of the two foundation building monks fell on Tu Baiyao for the first time, full of incredulity, and they didn't dare to recognize each other.
Tu Baiyao smiled: "Why are you looking at me like this? β
One of them finally came back to his senses and said with surprise and joy: "Big brother, you are really good?!! β
Tu Baiyao ignored him, but looked at a man next to him who looked to be in his fifties, and said:
"Brother Nie, I have already told you about the situation, and then, you can listen to Mr. Ge's arrangement."
The man he called Brother Nie was originally a little suspicious after receiving Feizhi's summons, but after seeing Tu Baiyao's current state, he no longer had any doubts and nodded hurriedly.
Tu Baiyao looked at the other man again and advised, "You take a look at the store for me temporarily, and be careful not to disturb Mr. Ge." β
This man was Meng Zhou's first visit to the door, and he proposed to arrange someone to follow and keep an eye on him, and he was also the closest to Tu Baiyao.
At this moment, after listening to Tu Baiyao's instructions, he had no objections, and nodded, "Big brother, don't worry, I'm here, don't say it's a person, I promise that even a fly won't disturb Mr. Ge." β
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Meng Zhou next to him, with a stammering smile on his face.
"Mr. Ge, kid Liao Heng, if you need anything, just let me know."
"Then there is Lao Daoyou." Meng Zhou smiled, and then looked at the other man surnamed Nie.
The man surnamed Nie introduced himself: "Mr. Ge, in Xia Nie Feng." β
Meng Zhou gestured: "Nie Daoyou, sit down, since you already know the situation, let's start." β
Meng Zhou first conducted a comprehensive examination of Nie Feng, his condition was much better than that of Tu Baiyao, and the treatment would be much easier.
If you really want to say it, in fact, it's okay not to use longevity pills.
But if he doesn't invest in any cost, wouldn't it seem that he made too much money, and he would treat people with a single hand, and people would not mumble in their hearts when they paid?
But with the addition of the secret medicine of the master, it is different.
What's more, this longevity pill is really not a fool's errand, it can indeed bring them greater benefits, and it is beneficial and harmless to others and themselves, so naturally there is nothing to scruple about.
"Come, take this secret medicine." Meng Zhou took out a jade bottle and said to Nie Feng.
Nie Feng took the jade bottle and poured out the elixir in it, looking from the outside, it was not much different from the longevity pill he had taken.
He had doubts, but thinking of the changes that happened to Tu Baiyao, he extinguished all his thoughts and swallowed the pill into his stomach in a proper manner.
β¦β¦
On the other side, Tu Baiyao left the store and did not leave the city to go to Daijiabao.
These days, the local monks, led by Dai Shouli, did not refrain from participating because of resentment in their hearts. On the contrary, he followed up the whole process, was always on the front line, paid attention to the progress of the situation, and occasionally acted as a stumbling block and a-stirring stick.
Therefore, if you want to find Dai Shouli, you don't need to leave the city at all.
However, before going to meet Dai Shouli again, he first met with another man.
This person is fifty or sixty years old in appearance, with a tall posture, there are rules between walks, and there is always a faint warm smile on his face.
This man who doesn't look fierce at all is the person in charge of Bi Xueyuan's visit to Sanchuan Plateau this time, surnamed Yao Minggu, one of the two giants of the Blue Blood Army.
Unlike the Sanchuan Society, which has President Pan as the absolute core, the Blue Blood Army is a dual core.
One is in charge of the battle, arranging all actions against the monsters.
One is in charge of logistics and all kinds of complicated personnel disputes, and this person is Yao Gu.
He is also in charge of the barrel war between the internal forces of the Blue Blood Plain, and the regular exchange and trade with the Sanchuan Plateau, and the raising of various strategic resources for the Blue Blood Army, are also in charge of him.
This time, President Pan was personally invited, and the stakes were so high, that he personally came forward, which shows how seriously he attaches this matter.
Although he had already received Tu Baiyao's flying knowledge summons in advance, he knew the general situation of the matter. But at this moment, seeing Tu Baiyao, who was dozens of years younger and his spiritual energy had changed dramatically, Yao Gu still couldn't hide the shock on his face.
Then, he took matters into his own hands and carefully examined Tu Baiyao's body, and only then did he really believe in the truth he saw with his eyes.
Seeing that Tu Baiyao wanted to go to Dai Shouli immediately, Yao Gu said:
"Don't worry, you will first tell me about the contact with this Ge Medicine Master, and then tell me carefully!"
Obviously, he was more interested in this "Ge Pharmacist" than in negotiating conditions with Dai Shouli.
There is not much to talk about, after all, there is not much contact between the two sides, and Tu Baiyao just said again what he had been informed in advance of the Feizhi summons.
Yao Gu listened very carefully, and occasionally carefully asked "Medicine Master Ge" about his actions and demeanor at certain times, so as to speculate on the psychology of the other party.
Finally, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, he said:
"Is it possible that what really plays a role is just the secret medicine that seems to be the longevity pill, and his shot is just a disguise?"
"No way, although that secret medicine has played a huge role, his shot is also very important!"
Tu Baiyao shook his head resolutely, and then emphasized: "I still have this judgment!" β
Yao Gumo rubbed his chin and frowned, "But if that's the case, what does the safe house say?" β
"As you said before, the safe house was temporarily made by the other party according to the needs of the Blue Blood Army, and the maker was that Ge Daoyou."
"We've also studied the safe house carefully these days, and the other party is not only a powerful rune array master with a special inheritance and a second-order professional level.
His attainments in refining weapons are also extraordinary, and at worst they are second-order middle grades.
If the other party only started making it after negotiating with you for the first time, in such a short period of time, his attainment in refining weapons is likely to be a second-order top-grade! β
Speaking of this, he began to wrench his fingers and said, "Proficient in the Rune Dao, Array Dao, and Instrument Dao, all of them have reached the second-order upper grade, and may even be higher."
This kind of existence can already be called a demon.
Now you tell me again that the other party's talent in the pharmacist is only higher than the three paths of talismans, arrays, and instruments! β
Speaking of this, he stared at Tu Baiyao, "Do you really think that there will be such a genius in this world?" Did you happen to be met by us? β
"But that's the case, whether it's that safe house or my living example, you can't fake it, right?" Tu Baiyao said.
"Uh......" Yao Gu said.
"And, don't you think, the situation is the most reasonable for him alone?" Tu Baiyao said.
"What do you mean?" Yao Gu asked.
"Since people are already proficient in the three realms of talismans, arrays, and weapons, it's not too much to be proficient in a pharmacist, right?"
"Compared to meeting a genius professional who is proficient in talismans, arrays, and weapons at the same time, and happens to meet a genius pharmacist, don't you think it's more reasonable that they are actually the same person?"
It makes sense.
Yao Gu was speechless for a while.
It's as if they had carefully studied the safe house and judged that it was the result of a genius who was proficient in the three realms of rune array weapons, rather than the product of the cooperation of a second-order high-grade rune array master and a second-order high-grade refiner.
In this particular case, the latter is less likely.
Although it may seem incredible, these abilities are all from the same person, which is the most plausible explanation.
Tu Baiyao didn't seem to think that this was not fierce enough, and continued to remind:
"Don't forget that secret medicine, if this medicine comes from him, then his Dan Dao attainments are no weaker than the others."
Next to him, Yao Gu didn't reply, nor did he question, just lowered his head and played with his fingers over and over again.
One, two, three, four, five, one palm was finished, he suddenly raised his head, and asked without a head:
"You say, does he have a sixth or even a seventh professional ability?"
Tu Baiyao spread his hands: "Who knows?" β
Yao Guhu asked again: "You say, should I go and see him in person?" β
Tu Baiyao was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, don't go!" β
Seeing that he reacted so violently, Yao Gu looked at him with suspicion in his eyes, as if asking, "What are you doing with such a big reaction?" β
Tu Baiyao hurriedly explained:
"What can you do to see him? It can't be to recruit him to the Blue Blood Plain, right?
If you have this idea, I advise you to dispel it as soon as possible! β
"What we have to do now is to establish a better mutual trust with him, and if he has any needs in the future, he is willing to think about us, which is the most important thing!"
"For the rest, don't really think too much, and don't expect too much.
Otherwise, if people come out of this door this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a relationship with him in the future! β
"For such characters, as long as they are willing, they can flourish wherever they go.
But in our impression, there is no such person in Qingxuan Domain at all! β
"Don't you understand?
For him, what he wants most is to be comfortable, and what he is most bored with is entanglement.
If we are overly enthusiastic because of the means he has revealed, and make additional demands, even if we are sincere, it will be the beginning of trouble for him.
The connection we established with it by such a chance will be completely cut off when people turn around! β
"The best way to get along with such beings is to abide by the agreement and not to overstep it."
Listening to Tu Baiyao's persuasion, Yao Gu frowned and was silent.
It's not that he doesn't understand this truth, but it's really ......
It's so gluttonous!
Just think about it for a while, if this kind of character is Bi Xueyuan's own person, he will wake up with a smile even if he dies.
Just watching the other party dangling at the door of his house, if he didn't want to drag him into the house, he would be the head of the family in vain!
In the end, it was reason that prevailed over emotion.
He said with difficulty: "Okay, I won't go, you ......"
He wanted to tell him to treat the other party well, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that these words were simply redundant.
So he waved his hand and swallowed back the words that had already come to his lips.
"Let's go, I'll accompany you to meet that old thing Dai Shouli."
In the process, both of them very wisely avoided one option - to use force.
As a cultivator, this should have been the first solution that should have come to mind, but it was ignored by the two high-ranking members of the Blue Blood Army.
β¦β¦
At this moment, Dai Shouli was meditating cross-legged in a room at the headquarters of the Sanchuan Society.
I was very surprised to receive Yao Gu's summons.
The content of the interrogation is also very simple, that is, I want to meet him somewhere.
After a little silence, he sneered, got up, and walked out.
Of course, he felt that the other party didn't hold back any good farts behind this invitation, but not only did this not make him worry, but he was curious in his heart, and wanted to go to the meeting alone to find out.
In these three rivers, he is not afraid of the other party's cheating.
With this in mind, he left the room and went straight to the room where the interrogation was taking place.
After entering the room, he casually glanced at the other person in the room, and his eyes were all focused on Yao Gu, and sneered:
"Commander Yao, Dai is here now, what kind of confidential information do you have to tell?"
Yao Gu waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not me who wants to see you, it's this one." β
He pointed his finger at Tu Baiyao and said.
Dai Shouli looked at Tu Baiyao again, frowned, looked up and down for a while, and then said:
"I'm sorry, I don't know what kind of medicine you're selling in your gourd, this ...... Fellow Daoist, I don't know either.
If you have something, you better say it directly! β
With his temper, he would have casually brought out some contemptuous words, but when he felt the other party's cultivation qi, he still chose to keep it.
He couldn't offend the strange monks who appeared beside him because of his bad feelings for Yao Gu, so it would be easy to be led into the ditch.
Yao Gu didn't say it directly, but continued to laugh and said: "Although you are not familiar with him, you have met, you might as well think about it carefully!" β
Dai Shouli was unhappy in his heart, but he also stared at Tu Baiyao carefully, and his mind quickly searched for past memories.
As he looked at it, the other party's facial features gradually gave him a sense of familiarity.
Yao Gu continued to mention on the side: "Just a few days ago, he came down from the spaceship with me. β
In Dai Shouli's mind, more than a thousand human avatars appeared in a short period of time, and they flashed quickly, and the memory had been turned to decades ago.
Hearing Yao Gu's reminder, he quickly searched back, and finally, the image of the character in his mind was fixed on a figure whose appearance was older than him, and his breath was even weaker to the extreme.
The figure in the twilight, as if he was going to die at any time, coincided with the figure in front of him who was forty or fifty years old, full of breath and full of energy.
His eyes widened little by little, and his mouth opened little by little.
"How so?!" Dai Shouli muttered in disbelief.
"Brother Dai, it's a great thing to call you here, we thought of you at the first time, but I don't know what you think?"
"What conditions? You say! β
ββ¦β¦ Brother is arrogant! β
ββ¦β¦β
β¦β¦
"Alright."
Meng Zhou withdrew his palm and whispered to Nie Feng.
Nie Feng, who was immersed in the wonderful experience, opened his eyes with unfinished regret.
"The hidden ailment that lurks in your body is gone, and you have gained an additional twenty years of life.
You should also feel that your body has become more energetic and your mana has become more active. β
"Mr. Ge......" Nie Feng, who was also a few years younger in appearance, was full of gratitude and wanted to say something.
Meng Zhou said: "You should seize the time to regulate pranayama now, if you use it well, your lifespan may increase by a few years." β
Nie Feng's expression changed, he didn't dare to speak anymore, and honestly crossed his knees in the corner of the house.
Meng Zhou also began to silently close his eyes and breathe.
The other person in the house, Liao Heng, who was left by Tu Baiyao to watch the store, stared at a pair of eyes, looked left and right, but didn't dare to squeak.
β¦β¦
After a while, a flying message flew into the house and came to Meng Zhou.
Meng Zhou opened his eyes, stretched out his hand to take it, read the contents, thought about it, and asked Liao Heng next to him, "Do you have a mask?" β
"Huh?" Liao Heng was startled at first, and then seemed to finally understand the question, and quickly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ge ......"
"I have one here, but I don't know if it suits Mr. Nie Feng, who was sitting cross-legged in the corner of the house, spoke.
There was already an extra mask in his hand, and he was about to get up and send it over, but it had already been snatched from him by the clever Liao Heng.
In Nie Feng's futile gaze, Liao Heng had already walked in front of Meng Zhou with the mask in both hands.
"Sir, take a look, is it suitable?"
This is a second-order mid-grade mask, not the kind of disguise, or a mask that tells people "I have a mask".
"Yes." Meng Zhou nodded, and put it on his face.
After a while, Tu Baiyao took Dai Shouli into the store.
As soon as they entered the store, their eyes were focused on the masked man in the room.
Seeing this, the corners of Tu Baiyao's mouth twitched slightly.
He had just sent a summons in advance, reminding Pharmacist Ge that he and Dai Shouli were coming over, so that he could prepare in advance.
But he never thought that he was so prepared.
But there is more in my heart, but there is still joy.
When Pharmacist Ge did this, he made it clear and told Dai Shouli, "We are a pure doctor-patient relationship, don't rub me, I don't want to know you."
It also dispelled a hidden worry in his heart.
Dai Shouli stared at the masked man, looking carefully, his eyes flickering, and his expression changed.
Meng Zhou didn't care what they thought in their hearts, and urged: "Let's start when people come." β
Tu Baiyao pushed Dai Shouli, Dai Shouli came back to his senses, took two steps forward, and arched his hand: "What should I do?" β
Meng Zhou said in his heart, didn't Tu Baiyao even tell him his surname Ge Mingping?
But he gestured, "Just sit across from me." β
Dai Shouli nodded, and quietly did it opposite Meng Zhou.
"Give me your hand." Meng Zhoudao.
Dai Shouli stretched out his hand, and Meng Zhou began to examine his situation by various means.
Since he agreed, he will not be perfunctory, and he will never fool the other party.
After carefully examining it for a while, under Dai Shouli's burning gaze, Meng Zhou said calmly:
"Your body is different from the situation of Tu Daoyou and Nie Daoyou.
Generally speaking, you have basically not suffered any fatal injuries in your life, and the two most obvious injuries should have been nearly a hundred years......"
Dai Shouli suddenly said: "Ninety-three years, that is also the most ruthless period of time in Sanchuan Plateau. β
"That Sanchuan Plateau is really peaceful." Liao Heng pouted.
Tu Baiyao turned his head and glared at Liao Heng, who was talking nonsense.
"However, those two times did not hurt the root, and the treatment was very timely, and a lot of good medicine was used, although the technique was rough, but the injury at that time was basically healed."
"Your current situation is that you are too old, your state of life is declining, and those hidden dangers that remain in your body are like stones that were originally hidden under water, and as the water level decreases, they will naturally be revealed, which is an important reason why your state has fallen and you can't keep it at your peak."
There is another reason, that is, getting old, which is an objective law that cannot be changed by manpower.
Until now, Dai Shouli has been calm.
Untilβ
"Now, I have two options."
"First, I will prolong your life for twenty years, and within twenty years, your strength can be maintained at its peak."
"The second is to prolong your life for thirty years, but your strength can only recover to ninety percent of its peak state."
"Whether it's the first or the second, when the time limit is up, you're going to fall back to where you are now."
Dai Shouli was finally moved, but he still kept thinking calmly, and asked, "How many years do I have to live?" β
"Fifteen years, twenty years." Meng Zhou thought about it and gave an answer.
Dai Shouli said: "I choose the second option. β
The three people from the Blue Blood Plains all looked at Dai Shouli with some surprise.
According to their perception, they will not hesitate to choose the first option.
In Bixueyuan, strength is the guarantee of life, and only with strength can there be life.
If the strength is not enough, no matter how long the life expectancy is, it is no different from zero.
But for Dai Shouli, the situation is the opposite.
Although strength is also very important, whether it is 90% or 10% is not so important.
On the contrary, the extra ten years of life of the second option are more attractive.
Meng Zhou didn't comment on his choice, but only reminded: "If you choose the second option, your chances of going further may be even slimmer." β
A wry smile finally appeared on Dai Shouli's calm face, "It's the first one, and the chance won't be much greater." β
With his status and net worth, the attempts he should have made have already been made, and the upper limit has reached the top, and if he can't go up, he can't go up.
Meng Zhou nodded and said, "Then you cross your knees and close your eyes and adjust your state...... Leave the rest to me. β
Dai Shouli hesitated for a moment, but still did as he could.
When he felt about the same, a stream of spirit came to his mouth.
"Open your mouth."
After hesitating for a moment, Dai Shouli opened his mouth as he said.
"I don't believe how dare they do anything to me!"
Soon, the remaining thoughts in his mind disappeared without a trace, and he was fully immersed in the wonderful experience.
He felt himself soaked in the warm spring water, and he felt lifted up by a light force, floating in the clouds.
It's a pity that he is far from enjoying enough, and he is still "in mid-air", and a voice pulls him back to reality.
"Alright."
Regretting it in his heart, Dai Shouli still carefully checked his current state, although he did not have an accurate grasp of the improved lifespan, but in his judgment, the situation should be similar to what the other party said.
What's more, a younger body, a more active mana, and a more surging power in the body, all of which cannot be faked.
He looked at Meng Zhou, excited and earnest, and arched his hand: "This Mr. Pharmacist, in Sanchuan Plateau, there are still many monks like me......
You don't need to listen to the rest of the words to know what he is going to say, Meng Zhou directly interrupted, "If you have any ideas, please discuss with Tu Daoyou and the others." β
"Huh?" Dai Shouli was a little unclear.
Meng Zhou looked at Tu Baiyao: "My task has been completed, what about yours?" β
As he spoke, he glanced at Dai Shouli and turned to walk towards the back room.
"If you have anything that you haven't discussed, deal with it as soon as possible, and I'll wait for you in the back room."
With that, he turned around and went into the back room.
Dai Shouli looked at Meng Zhou's back as he was about to disappear, and shouted:
"Sir, the spirit stone is not a problem, everything is not a problem, you can mention anything you need!"
Meng Zhou had already closed the door of the inner room from the inside.
Tu Baiyao looked at Dai Shouli and said dissatisfied:
"Dai Daoyou, it's not kind for you to do this, is this your attitude towards the agreement?"
Dai Shouli looked at the closed door, regretfully withdrew his gaze, looked at the dissatisfied Tu Baiyao, and was also rarely good-tempered, so he didn't argue with him, just nodded and said:
"Don't worry, I'll keep the promise."
After that, he walked out without looking back.
Tu Baiyao looked at his distant figure and shouted, "Don't forget our supplementary terms!" β
"You can't miss out!"
Meng Zhou, who had been paying attention to the movement outside, thought that Tu Baiyao would come to him soon after Dai Shouli left.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, he hurriedly came to see him and placed the two bags in front of Meng Zhou.
Meng Zhou had already come out of the back room and looked at the two bags in front of him.
One of them was a storage bag, which contained three hundred copies of the raw materials for the longevity pill he needed.
Worth 180 high-grade spirit stones.
This is what Meng Zhou wanted, and there is no surprise.
But the other bag next to it was a bit unexpected for him.
It was a spirit stone bag with a hundred spirit stones in it.
One hundred high-grade spirit stones.
"What do you mean?" Meng Zhou asked in surprise.
And with Tu Baiyao's explanation, Meng Zhou also understood the reason.
He and Dai Shouli only agreed on a general framework, and the more specific conditions depended on Meng Zhou's treatment of him.
Among them, it is specifically divided into two indicators: life growth and strength recovery.
The more his lifespan increases, the more his strength recovers, and the more Dai Shouli needs to pay.
"And how much did he actually pay?" Meng Zhou asked with great interest.
"Two hundred and twenty high-grade spirit stones."
Speaking of this, a trace of joy first appeared on Tu Baiyao's face, and then he shook his head and said:
"However, these materials were all provided by him, and the top-grade spirit stones he really took out were only forty."
"But how come there are a hundred more here?"
"The rest is my and Nie Daoyou's remuneration, you cured me and Nie Daoyou, but you only got sixty high-grade spirit stones, I hope you don't have too little."
Meng Zhou waved his hand: "Enough." β
Tu Baiyao said again:
"I don't know if you still need any other resources, so I'll temporarily replace them with spirit stones for you.
In the future, if you have any needs, you can always come here to me. β
Meng Zhou transferred three hundred copies of the longevity pill materials into his storage space, and also collected the one hundred high-grade spirit stones.
He took off his mask, put it next to the storage bag, got up and said, "Okay, I'll look for you if I need it in the future, say goodbye." β
Tu Baiyao was about to get up to send him off, but saw Meng Zhou disappear directly from the store.
Tu Baiyao was stunned for a moment, and then shocked, his divine sense carefully probed in the room, but there was no trace.
He turned his head to look at Liao Heng and Nie Feng next to him, and asked, "Did you find anything?" β
The cultivation of the two of them was lower than his, and in the face of his inquiry, they just shook their heads blankly.
Between the looks, there is also some horror.
They all watched as a large living person disappeared from front of them, leaving not a trace behind.
It's not that they're unheard, in fact, they already have second-order spells in their minds that are appearing like marquees.
What kind of means did the other party use, and they also had some eyebrows in their hearts.
What is really terrifying is that the other party blatantly disappeared under the eyes of the three of them, but finally disappeared completely in their divine sense, leaving no trace.
β¦β¦
With the Consummation Stealth Technique and the Consummation Earth Escape Technique, he walked out of the store, and escaped not far underground, Meng Zhou sensed the breath of a foundation-building monk above.
Although this person was not Dai Shouli, Meng Zhou was sure that this was arranged by Dai Shouli.
"This old fellow."
This is the reason why he is reluctant to have a direct relationship with the other party, far less than Tu Baiyao's understanding of current affairs.
If you really want to get entangled with the other party, you will really hit the snake with the stick and kick the nose in the face.
Meng Zhou sneaked out of this area quietly, and it was not until after leaving the city that he accelerated back home.
"That's it, next, continue to cultivate with peace of mind."
Tu Dun returned to the courtyard, and Meng Zhou had changed back to the appearance of "Zhuang Sheng", from his appearance to his breath.
The few flying messages that stayed at the door of the quiet room suddenly turned around, like a flock of birds returning to their nests, and pounced on him.
While playing "Ge Ping", Meng Zhou adjusted the mana fluctuations.
All these messages sent to "Zhuang Sheng" came here and stayed, until he changed back into Zhuang Sheng's image again, and they "recognized" him as the "recipient" through mana fluctuations and passed the information to him.
These information, including Governor Li, Kan Yue, and Lu Quan, all said the same thing.
Tomorrow, September 28, there will be a foundation building exchange meeting, because of the large number of participants, it has been decided that this exchange meeting will be held in five days.
In addition to the general meeting on the first day, the next four days will be broken down according to the strength and needs of the participants.
Meng Zhou originally wanted not to go, he had already obtained everything he wanted, and there was naturally no need to participate in such an exchange meeting.
But Meng Zhou suddenly thought that such a grand event, even if it was just to have a lively time, the vast majority of foundation building monks would also go, and if they didn't even show their faces, it would be more special.
Tu Baiyao and the others are okay, firstly, they are not familiar with the situation in Sanchuan Plateau, and secondly, with their own understanding of him, I believe that he will not do such a thing that makes him unhappy.
But Dai Shouli is different, he is racking his brains at the moment to find clues from hundreds of foundations.
So, let's go show up.
In the early morning of the 28th, Meng Zhou left Zhuang Tianzhuang early to attend the foundation building exchange meeting.
It wasn't until night fell that nothing was found, and "disappointed" returned.
Moreover, because he was going to cast a spell on Lingtian to rain, Meng Zhou also postponed the rest of the schedule.
In this regard, several well-known Taoist friends also expressed their understanding.
