Chapter 184: Soil and Water Adaptation
Zhou Zhaokai couldn't help but pause when he heard the reply of this disciple from the outer sect of the Red Lotus Sect.
What do you mean?
Why don't you see him?
He couldn't figure out what was going on.
A business of thousands of spirit stones. Even if you don't love money, you shouldn't push your business out.
Then Wu Hao has inquired very clearly, he has opened a pill shop in Dantang, how can the business of thousands of spirit stones be able to top his monthly turnover.
Why did he ignore it so peacefully?
Zhou Zhaokai was born in the Hanhai Sect of the Qi State. Qi is a coastal country, and there is no shortage of high mountains and dense forests, so the resources in their Qi country are much richer than those in Yue country.
The corresponding number of alchemists in the Qi country is also far greater than that of other countries in Lingnan.
That's the holy place for alchemists.
In Zhou Zhaokai's eyes, Yue Guo is just a poor and remote country.
But now he was actually rejected by a poor and remote soil bun alchemist. In this way, Zhou Zhaokai's face was ugly, and he felt ashamed.
This was originally a matter of the Lu family, and it stands to reason that it has nothing to do with him Zhou Zhaokai at all. However, he was forcibly taken on him.
There is no way, while the alchemists of Qi Country are full of talents, the competition is also much greater than that of Yue Kingdom.
Not to mention anything else, there are as many as nine personal disciples accepted by his master alone.
How easy is it to stand out among these nine apprentices?
Anyway, on the Dan Road, Zhou Zhaokai has no hope. After being hit for a long time, he understood that true genius is not something that can be surpassed through hard work.
However, Zhou Zhaokai also has his strengths, at least he can coax Master Lu Sifan to be happy. Even the matter of returning to the family to attend the funeral on his behalf this time was completed by him.
While Zhou Zhaokai was proud in his heart, he also secretly warned himself that he must arrange this trip beautifully and brightly, so that his master Lu Sifan is satisfied.
Originally, everything was fine at the beginning, but since that Wu Hao appeared, Lu Youwei's funeral has become a complete farce.
In this way, not only is the Lu family's face gloomy, but I am afraid that his master Lu Sifan's heart will not be happy.
And he, the disciple who came to attend the funeral, will inevitably be a little angry.
He certainly wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. So he began to offer advice to the landing family, preparing to make that Wu Hao become Dan blind!
While venting for the Lu family, he felt that he also needed to breathe for himself. If it weren't for him, he Zhou Zhaokai would probably have returned to Qi Country to see the sea by now.
At the beginning, he planned to let the Lu family take action, and he himself lived in seclusion behind the scenes. But the Lu family was too unreliable, so he had to go into battle in person.
However, it is not good to be a teacher, and he still doesn't know what it is for.
Could it be that as soon as he opened his mouth, there were too many thousands of spirit stones? So he scared that Wu Hao?
Zhou Zhaokai thought about it and felt that this Wu Hao was at least a disciple of the alchemy master, so his eyelids shouldn't be so shallow.
But if he is too little, then he is suspected of pretending.
Thousands of spirit stones, even Zhou Zhaokai of his Great Qi Kingdom couldn't ignore it!
Since he couldn't figure it out, Zhou Zhaokai began to ask others. The first thing he was looking for was naturally the outer disciple who delivered the letter for him.
This time, Zhou Zhaokai came to the Red Lotus Sect and found that the Red Lotus Sect was much more heavily guarded, and he didn't know what was going on.
He remembered that when he came a few years ago, he could go directly up the mountain to the Dantang side, if that was the case, he would go there directly to find someone, where else would he let the outer disciples come to pass it on.
However, now I don't know what's going on, and I won't even let him go up the mountain. And just at the station of the outer gate of the Red Lotus Sect, he had already encountered three checks.
There was no way, so he had to show some small favors and find an outer disciple to pass it on.
After inquiring with this outer disciple, this person carefully described Wu Hao's reaction to him at that time.
Zhou Zhaokai was even more confused when he heard it.
What does it mean to be unavailable? This kind of refusal is an excuse when you hear it!
However, this was the time, and the outer disciple had provided him with an important message.
That Wu Hao was most familiar with an outer disciple named Situ Xiaoming. In the outer gate, only Situ Xiaoming knew Wu Hao's temper best. The disciple advised him to ask Situ Xiaoming about it.
Anyway, he also booked a place in Chunyu Building, and since Wu Hao didn't come, he was simply ready to invite Situ Xiaoming.
Situ Xiaoming came as promised.
He himself loves to make friends with three religions and nine streams, and when he heard someone invited, he naturally went there happily.
These days, Situ Xiaoming has been a proud spring.
Originally, he was only a concubine in the Situ family, and according to the family rules, he had no inheritance rights. If he is in the family, his only way out after that is to attach himself to a certain son or lady and become their butler or cronie.
Fortunately, he had a good talent and successfully entered the Red Lotus Sect, which gave him another way out.
However, the competition among the sects seems to be more naked than the family. The Situ family could only let Xiaoming use it as a banner, and in fact, he didn't give him the slightest support. Everything can only rely on Situ Xiaoming's own struggle.
Fortunately, he climbed up to Wu Hao. That is not only the senior brother of the inner gate, but also the personal disciple of Master Dandao.
Although Wu Hao didn't give him any benefits on the surface. But for Situ Xiaoming, who can still pull up the family name and become a banner without the support of the family, he will naturally not borrow Wu Hao's name.
So he regarded himself as Wu Hao's younger brother everywhere, and he actually pulled up a vote of people and became the leader of it.
Wu Hao is not unaware of some of his actions. But since every time he asks Situ Xiaoming to do something, he does it very beautifully, so he naturally turns a blind eye. What's more, there is also a filial piety during the New Year's holidays.
Because of Wu Hao's relationship, Situ Xiaoming led these people to meddle in the business of some Dantang's medicinal materials and pills, and they usually had a small harvest. Even the pill shop opened by Wu Hao was taken care of by someone Situ Xiaoming found.
This time, I heard that the invitation of others involved a business involving thousands of spirit stones, and Situ Xiaoming naturally would not miss it.
After he came here, he warmly exchanged a few words with Zhou Zhaokai.
When he heard that the person who came was from Qi Guo, the enthusiasm in Situ Xiaoming's tone dropped a little.
"It turned out to be Qi Guoyan" Situ Xiaoming said secretly in his heart, and then changed to a reserved smile.
In the eyes of Situ Xiaoming, a native of Vietnam, there are only two kinds of people in this world. One is a Vietnamese and the other is a foreigner.
Seeing that the other party was a foreigner, Situ Xiaoming instantly had a psychological advantage.
After he heard that the other party wanted to see Wu Hao, he slowly put up the shelf, and then said unhurriedly: "Senior Brother Wu is very busy, he can't meet each other." ”
Zhou Zhaokai secretly scolded the hillbilly who asked for money in his heart, but he still quietly stuffed a red envelope for Situ Xiaoming, asking him to help be accommodating no matter what.
Situ Xiaoming twisted his hand casually, and he had a rough judgment of the number in the red envelope. He looked at the hillbilly in front of him with the eyes of a fool and a lot of money, and continued: "Senior Brother Wu Shenlong can't see the end of the head, and he can't guarantee his itinerary in the future. ”
Looking at Zhou Zhaokai's discolored face, Situ Xiaoming continued with a smile: "But if you want to see Senior Brother Wu, I can show you a clear way!"
"Oh?" Zhou Zhaokai suddenly came to his senses: "Dare to ask what is the clear road?"
Situ Xiaoming remembered that Wu Hao had been asking him to help find the maid these days, and couldn't help but show an ambiguous smile, and then he came to Zhou Zhaokai's ear and said mysteriously: "If you want to make an appointment with Senior Brother Wu, don't be in Chunyu Building, you should go to Changle Fang!"
"Changle Fang?" Zhou Zhaokai was stunned for a moment, this name is a little familiar!
Suddenly, he remembered, wasn't the patriarch of the Lu family there who spent a lot of money to redeem Lu Jiaojiao?
Then he heard Situ Xiaoming whisper: "You can use the beauty meter!"
After that, he also gave Zhou Zhaokai a "you know" look.
Use the beauty trick!
Use the beauty trick!
What a beauty!
In an instant, countless Situ Xiaoming's voices seemed to come from a distant sky, constantly echoing in Zhou Zhaokai's ears......
"Huh?" Situ Xiaoming suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, are you okay, why did your face suddenly be so ugly just now?"
"Beauty has a ......" Zhou Zhaokai was about to subconsciously say, but he reacted immediately, and quickly changed his words: "The beauty plan is good! Why didn't I think of it before, hehe...... Huh"
Looking at Zhou Zhaokai's smile, which was more ugly than crying, Situ Xiaoming asked again, "Brother Zhou, are you really okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Zhou Zhaokai cheered up and said, "Maybe it's just a little ...... Not adapted!"
