Chapter 205: Turning Defeat into Victory (2nd Update)
Xue Zha and Horn are like a pair of good brothers who have been separated for many years, and they don't know how to answer when they listen to the joy on the side.
This is also to blame the two of them, after all, it is really difficult to meet a "fellow" on this continent.
Xue Zha and Horn seemed to have a tacit understanding, and after a short greeting, Horn spoke directly.
"Brother Xue, I heard that the elixir you studied to attract sea beasts is very powerful, I wonder if you can show it to my brother?"
Xue Zhe heard Horn's words, although his expression was stunned, he still spoke.
"Where is this talking brother, don't talk about it, what if you give it a few bottles. ”
He directly reached out and touched the sea gourd, but before his hand touched the porcelain bottle containing the potion, he shook it.
"There is more than one ginseng missing, and there is also one bottle of potion missing, Lexiang, you old guy is really ...... I'm sure you'll have to throw it all up when I have time. ”
Xue Zhe took out a bottle of potion from the gourd and handed it to Horn, while glancing at Le Shen with a faint invisible gaze.
But then, it suddenly occurred to him that Le Shen was doing things for Horn, and since Le Shen had touched something from his sea gourd, there was no reason why Horn hadn't seen it.
"Isn't it ......"
Xue Zha thought of an answer, one that he thought was more likely.
Le Shen lacked money, or rather, he lacked resources.
For a man who had just woken up for a short time, there was nothing but cultivation that had not yet fully recovered.
And if he wants to recover his body quickly, he must rely on a lot of resources.
And where do these resources come from?
It can only be obtained by snatching or hunting sea beasts, and these are actually not difficult for Le Shen.
In fact, Xue Zha didn't get angry when Le Shen did this, what made him angry was that Le Detail thought he was smart and thought that he Xue Zha wouldn't find out and secretly take things away.
Not only did they look down on him, they still didn't believe him.
Although Xue Zha sometimes likes to be careful, he is not a person who does not know the general situation, for him, things can be obtained again when things are gone, but if the friendship is gone, then it is really gone.
He attaches great importance to feelings, so when he was in Yunguo, those who followed him, he didn't let them suffer.
But now, the little respect that Xue Zha had for Le Shen before has also disappeared.
Xue Zha watched as Horn took the potion he handed over in his hand, and while looking at it carefully, he uncorked the bottle and sniffed.
Horn frowned into a pimple when he smelled a particularly pungent smell, and then said.
"This thing smells so big, no wonder the sea beasts like it!
When Xue Zha heard Horn's words, he even paused with his hand holding the teacup.
"Brother Huo, what are you talking about? Can you smell this smell?"
What Xue Zha said was not a lie.
Although this potion was made by him, he also made it by mistake.
The smell emitted by the potion, not to mention other people, even if it is him, when he smells it, he will feel extremely fishy, reminiscent of a bad item.
But it's this particular smell that fascinates the sea beasts.
But because of this, Xue Zha was extremely surprised, because Horn could understand this smell, and he was not a sea beast.
Horn saw the shocked expression on Xue Zha's face and knew that he had just been a little too excited.
"Brother Xue, don't get me wrong, I can't smell this smell, but this smell is so rushing, no wonder the sea beast likes it. However, I still admire you very much, you can actually concoct this magical potion, you must know my brother, I chemistry...... Eh, forget it, don't talk about it, drink tea!"
Horn seemed to think of something unbearable in the past, directly picked up the teacup, toasted Xue Zhe from afar, and then drank it cleanly.
Xue Zhe also looked like Horn, and directly picked up the teacup and drank it cleanly.
When he gently placed the teacup in his hand on the table, he spoke again.
"Brother Huo, I don't know if this potion has any effect that Mr. Le told you? If you want to know, I can say it slowly. ”
Although Xue Zha was very relaxed when he said this, his eyes were inadvertently glancing at the side of Lexiang.
When Horn heard Xue Zha's words, his eyes subconsciously turned to Le Shen on the side, and the two glanced at each other, not knowing what they were communicating.
Xue Zha grabbed the teapot on the side and added a cup of tea to Horn first, and then a cup for himself.
His goal has been achieved, and whether Horn knows what he is happy to do depends on the communication between the two of them.
But to Xue Zha's surprise, the eye contact between Horn and Le Shen only lasted a few breaths before it ended.
What Xue Zhe saw in his eyes was that the two seemed to have reached some kind of consensus.
Horn coughed and spoke again.
"Brother Xue, Brother just thought about it, there are a few questions I have to ask about your potion, does it have any limitations?"
Xue Zha heard Horn's words, and slowly put down the teacup in his hand, he knew that now was the main event, and everything before was foreshadowing.
Although Xue Zha felt a little inexplicably lost at this time, he could still think clearly.
Even if he and Horn in front of him are from the same place, even if they are both looking for a way to go back, unfortunately, for now, neither of them seems to have found a way to go back.
In addition, Horn has his own things to do, and since he has chosen to be the owner of this island, he is responsible for the people of this island.
And he, Xue Zha, is just an outsider after all, even if the two have a good relationship, they can only be maintained by trading.
Although Xue Zhe had regrets, he was not angry, he didn't think that he had reported to the house, Horn met him, and the two of them saw their fellow countrymen, with tears in their eyes.
"Brother Huo, this potion of mine, you have to say the shortcomings, first, it doesn't last long enough, second, it will cling to organic matter, and third, it can make sea beasts mad and ignore enemies and me. ”
Xue Zha's words made Le Shen on the side very embarrassed.
Are you talking about the disadvantages? How do I sound like they're all pros?
However, after hearing Xue Zha's words, Horn slammed the table and yelled.
"Brother Xue, in that case, I am willing to make a big deal with you, brother, how about it?"
Xue Zhe's eyes saw the teacup on the table that had been shaken and overflowed, and gently sniffed it in front of his nose.
"What deal?"
Xue Zha tried his best to show a calm and breezy appearance, but Horn on the other side appreciated him even more.
"I'm going to buy 500 bottles of this potion from you, and I'll want it tomorrow!"
Horn's words fell, and the tea soup that Xue Zha had just poured into his mouth suddenly squirted out, and coincidentally, he directly sprayed Le Shen's face.
"What? 500 bottles? Tomorrow? Brother, are you a machine or something, even if I don't stop 24 hours a day, I can't supply it!"
Xue Zha was a little excited, and said a lot of words that Le Xiang couldn't understand, which made Le Xiang seem to forget that he was sprayed in the face.
Horn looked stunned, nodded and smiled, and spoke again.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, three days! Three days should be enough, I can't do any more, I'll provide the medicinal materials and places, brother, you can concentrate on making potions, as for the reward, as long as the brother has it, you can mention it casually!"
Xue Zha understood that Horn must have been a nouveau riche in his previous life, not to mention anything else, his mouth was full of the copper smell of money, but he liked it.
Xue Zha also learned from Horn to slam the table.
"Brother Huo, don't say anything, it's all in the wine, oh no, it's all in the tea!"
