After a pause, Lao Mai continued: "There is such an opportunity in front of me, if anyone finds Lao Zhenren and brings him to see me, Mai will return all the life-buying medicinal materials he has paid, or provide accurate information, and when I find someone, I can return half of them."

"If more than one person finds me and brings it to me, share a portion of the returned medicinal materials together, or if multiple people provide accurate information at the same time, when they find someone, they will divide half of the medicinal materials together.

"You can talk in person, you can also spread the sound, you can talk now, you can also talk later, count within a week, more than a week, Mai no longer waits, he will do his own search, everyone, everything you say is here, hope to do it yourself. ”

Hearing Lao Mai say this for a while, the four people on the other side looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, there are any expressions.

Huashan Yinsu didn't want to bear the self-blame of betraying his accomplices and broke it off by himself, although Tan Zhiduan finally told who there was, but it was known by the soul search, not voluntary, and there was no psychological burden.

If Lao Zhenren's whereabouts were revealed by one of the four people present, this person would inevitably bear the psychological responsibility of betraying his friends, which would eventually affect his cultivation state of mind, causing his heart knot to arise, and even developing into a heart demon, and the realm would inevitably be hindered and stagnant.

Therefore, even if they know it, no one dares to take the risk of doing it, and the so-called disaster comes from the mouth.

After Lao Mai finished speaking, he got up and left the table, and Tan Zhiduan followed suit, leaving only four old men in the box, still sitting still looking at each other.

Tan Zhiduan followed behind Lao Mai, went out to the door of the hotel lobby, and whispered: "Senior, senior, please stay!"

Facing the dark night outside the fence, Lao Mai stopped without looking back, and asked, "What else is wrong with you?"

Tan Zhiduan didn't dare to mention that his Zhihai was planted with a tracking formation, so he gritted his teeth and said: "The villain is willing to follow his predecessors, never give up, and beg his predecessors to take him in." ”

"Oh?" In the dark, Lao Mai slowly turned around, looked at Tan Zhiduan, who had been bowing at a ninety-degree angle, with blazing eyes, and said after a long time, "You want to follow this seat, not counting my Jinshi Sect disciples, you can only recognize me as the master and be my servant, are you willing?"

Tan Zhiduan gritted his teeth and said: "Return to the master, the slave ......"

Lao Mai interrupted him with a word, frowned, and said: "What era is it now, you still call yourself a slave, just call yourself a subordinate." ”

Tan Zhi was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "If the Lord sends him, his subordinates will never give up!"

Lao Mai smiled and said: "There is no need to exaggerate such an exaggeration, in this world, I don't think there will be a reason for my people to die." ”

Lao Mai's current cultivation is close to the early stage of Jindan, and there is no opponent in the cultivation field of this realm, and he is about to leave the job that he is already uncomfortable with.

Tan Zhiduan bowed his head and said, "Yes, my subordinates understand." ”

Lao Mai thought of something for a while, and said in a relaxed tone: "The positioning prohibition of this seat seal in your sea of knowledge is just convenient to find you, and there is no harm to you, once it is printed on your body, this seat has unlimited trust, if you want to stand up for yourself in the future, and want to go out independently, it will be eliminated for you by me, do you understand?"

Tan Zhiduan immediately put down a matter of concern, bowed his head and said respectfully: "My subordinates fully understand, thank you for your trust." ”

Lao Mai looked back and saw that there had been no movement in the No. 9 box of the hotel, so he sneered, grabbed Tan Zhiduan, drove away, and returned to the villa.

When he returned to the villa, he handed Tan Zhiduan to Ah Guang and asked him to arrange a place to stay and practice, then went back to his mansion to wash and change clothes, and then sat cross-legged on Simmons and meditated on the things in the exercises.

Not to mention cultivating in the mansion now, even if he drills into the interior of the Five Elephants Mountain Range to cultivate, there will be no obvious entry.

A while ago, the desert, the Gobi, the mountains, and the underground were drilled everywhere, and the effect was still relatively obvious.

After constantly looking for and studying the classics of various contents on the exercise tree, Lao Mai knows how to transition from the early stage of Jindan to the middle stage, although there is no bottleneck, it all depends on accumulation, after the initial Jindan is infinitely solidified, the surface layer will expand a circle, forming a solid shell, which is the middle stage of Jindan.

Under the solid surface layer, the original Jin Dan inside slowly evolved into an egg yolk shape with cultivation, and the entire Jin Dan eventually became an egg-like substance with a shell, egg white, and egg yolk, which was in the late stage of Jin Dan.

In the future, the guidance in the classics ends here, but Lao Mai guessed that this golden egg will eventually give birth to a primordial baby, and break the shell to come out, which is the process of breaking the pill into a baby.

Lao Mai thought to himself, maybe this is the follow-up exercise of condensing the Dan method, breaking the Dan into a baby method.

He figured out this gradual process, so he planned how to speed up the earth escape method, go to the three mountains and five mountains, and go to the various underground areas where the earth aura was rich, try to absorb as much earth aura as possible, promote the primitive accumulation, and finally cross the middle stage of Jindan.

In the middle of the golden pill, he will form a solid shell, and his body will become more condensed, and his defense will become stronger.

As for the weakness of the earth cultivator's weak attack, Lao Mai also planned to make up for it with the formation rune, but the formation did not have a good carrier at present, and there was no spirit stone, so don't think about laying out large and medium-sized formations.

At the moment, I can only get some gadgets, combine the array runes, and use my true yuan power to drive, but for a while, I have been drumming up a lot of various talismans of the earth system.

I got the medicinal materials for the claim, because I had to wait a week to see if anyone came to report it, so I hadn't handed it over to Mu Qingzi.

After a week, no matter whether anyone came to look for it, Lao Mai planned to empty all the medicinal materials to Mu Qingzi for processing, and vacate the storage talisman, which was specially used to hold the formation talisman for his own practice, which could be used by himself, or used to give his own people to defend themselves against the enemy.

Just two days after New Year's Day, Lao Mai was in the villa villa that night, and received a fiery red transmission note: "Senior, junior Zhao Ruizong, I want to knock on the face of my senior, I don't know if it is convenient for my senior?"

Lao Mai took a look at it and found that this was just a very ordinary transmission note, and it was estimated that the person was nearby, so he didn't dare to directly transmit the sound abruptly, so he sent the transmission note, so he recognized the way this note came from, and said: "Since you are here, come in." ”

Then, Ah Guang sent someone to open the electric retractable door of the villa's periphery and prepare to welcome guests.

Lao Mai himself went down to the back hall on the ground floor of the mansion, a small hall with a similar layout to the back hall of Mu Qingzi's mansion, and sat down on a table and futons on the stone steps to entertain guests.

Soon, Ah Guang led a tall old man with white hair and a red face to come in, it was Zhao Ruizong, an elder of the hidden family that he had seen at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

As soon as Zhao Ruizong came in, he stood respectfully in the room, bowed and saluted, "Meet the seniors." ”

Lao Mai pointed to the futon placed on the right side of the front and said, "Zhao Daoyou doesn't have to be formal, sit down and talk." ”

Zhao Ruizong bowed down and said, "Thank you seniors for sitting," and sat down cross-legged according to his words.

Lao Mai looked at him, raised his hand and said, "If you have anything to say, please say it." ”

Zhao Ruizong cautiously arched his hand and said: "The junior knows how to find Lao Zhenren, and wants to ask for a promise from the senior, and would rather give up and return the medicinal materials that have been compensated." ”

Lao Mai leaned forward and said, "Oh? ”

Zhao Ruizong's expression was a little heavy, and he said: "Actually, they are old Taoists and have a way to find Lao Zhenren, but they are afraid that they will be responsible for betraying their companions, and they will have a sense of guilt, which will affect the realm of Dao heart, and they are afraid that they will never enter the realm in the future." ”

Lao Mai asked curiously, "Isn't Zhao Daoyou afraid of affecting Dao Xin when he comes here?"

Zhao Ruizong's expression returned to nature, and said: "Originally, I was also a little worried, but after thinking about it again and again, I suddenly realized that we are all people who have built the peak realm of the Great Perfection, and we have long been unable to enter, and our longevity is more than two hundred years old, and if we don't advance to Jindan Dao, we can only wait for death." ”

Lao Mai said with a smile: "Hehe, Zhao Daoyou, I really know the current affairs for Junjie." ”

Zhao Ruizong said: "That old Taoist food is ancient, rotten wood cannot be carved, and the brain will not turn, how can the younger generations see the same knowledge as them, they are already waiting for death, and they are afraid of what will affect their mood, it is better to ask for the mercy of the seniors, maybe there is still a way to live." ”

Lao Mai laughed when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more.

Zhao Ruizong then arched his hand and said: "The juniors are willing to go to find Lao Zhenren, in exchange for the valuable experience of the seniors in the advanced Jindan Dao, and guide the juniors one or two, which is grateful." ”

Lao Mai looked at his expression for a long time, and then said slowly: "I was unintentionally obtained by the inheritance of the earth system and attained the Tao, along the way, it was all natural, and it came naturally, and it was originally impossible to extract the operation line of the exercises to show others, but when condensing the Dan, I had some feelings, and I could say that I listened to others." ”

"Ning Dan? Is it a knot Dan?" When Zhao Ruizong heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and the hairs on his ears stood up, for fear of missing every word.

Lao Mai didn't say anything at this time, just quietly watched Zhao Ruizong.

Zhao Ruizong immediately felt that he was out of shape and smiled awkwardly.

Lao Mai took out a piece of rune paper, flew to Zhao Ruizong lightly, and said: "Daoist friend found Lao Zhenren, if you can bring it to see me, if he doesn't want to come, use this rune paper to stick on his forehead, even if you complete the task and come back to see me, I will discuss the advanced Jindan secret technique with you." ”

Zhao Ruizong was overjoyed when he heard this, clenched his fists, put away the rune paper, stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "The junior will go to look for him, and he will not return if he is gone." ”

Before Lao Mai could react, Zhao Ruizong's body flashed with fire, and the figure was long gone, Lao Mai laughed in his heart when he saw this: "Just like the monster in the TV series "Journey to the West", the fire flashed, and he ran away. ”

......

In the new year of the solar calendar, Lao Mai went to his class as usual, studied his formation talisman after work, and found a lot of geological data to see where there was a suitable underground to make earthworms.

Naturally, on his first day of work after New Year's Day, he went to the organization department to submit his application for early retirement.

I didn't think that once this matter spread, it would not cause an uproar in the urban leadership, but also caused a discussion, and many urban leaders who were familiar with him advised him to think about it again.

Including his old classmate Lan Xinbo, his old acquaintance, Director Chen of the Urban Management Bureau, and Director Tan of the Finance Bureau, they all expressed regret when they met by chance, and Lao Lan also asked him very suspiciously whether he was advancing by retreating and taking advantage of the army, which made him cry and laugh and couldn't explain it.
