Chapter 322 Two Choices
The shopkeeper knelt down in front of Xia Shanliu with a bang, and said in a trembling voice: "I was deceived by him, and I did not do it intentionally. Please forgive me, Lord Alchemist!"
Xia Shanliu didn't even look at him, only stared at Jiang Lin, and said in a cold tone: "You can be fooled by this, idiot! You will be punished with three years' salary, and you will receive thirty lashes yourself."
The shopkeeper's body trembled, but he did not dare to say any more. He only stood up and looked at Jiang Lin with a look of resentment.
Jiang Lin didn't care. A drug store owner couldn't stand his eyes anymore.
Xia Shanliu said: "Since you came here for the strange fire, then go back."
After saying that, Xia Shanliu turned around and left without any intention of saying anything.
The Purple Ming Qihuo was the foundation of his life, how could he give it to others.
"If this fire is willing to be sold, I can guarantee that Master Xia's annual income from Kongming Powder will be more, not less." Jiang Lin said.
Xia Shanliu stopped and turned around to look at him with a slightly mocking look: "You also know that people in the world come to Kong Mingsan. If they know that this elixir was refined by you, how can they come to me again? What's more, if they know that you refined this pill, What can I do to you if you don’t give me any more one day? It’s really a joke.”
Jiang Lin was startled, and then realized that the benefits he mentioned did indeed do more harm than good to Xia Shanliu.
If it were him, he probably wouldn't agree.
Seeing that Xia Shanliu was about to leave again, Jiang Lin immediately stepped forward.
Six figures fell down at the same time, all of them were guards from the Yuanwu Realm, surrounding Jiang Lin.
"Stop! Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind!" A Yuanwu realm guard said solemnly.
Xia Shanliu turned around again and sneered: "Boy, I know your cultivation level is quite high, but these Yuanwu Realm guards are with me in name only, but they are actually members of the Duan family. If you dare to take action, you are making an enemy of the Duan family. If you are not afraid of death, you can try it.”
Jiang Lin raised his eyebrows slightly. It was obviously irrational to be an enemy of a powerful clan.
Although Yu Shuai is never polite when talking to these powerful people, that's because there are millions of frontier troops and the Daqian Dynasty standing behind him.
Although he has a backer, after all, he is not as important as Yu Shuai.
If we really fight, we will definitely not get any favors here.
"How many alchemy lines does Master Xia's Kong Ming Powder have?" Jiang Lin suddenly asked.
"How many pill patterns?" Xia Shanliu sneered: "Two, so what, do you mean that you have more pill patterns than I refined?"
"It's hard to say whether there are more pill patterns than Alchemist Xia. It should be about the same, but I can guarantee that every furnace can be successfully refined." Jiang Lin said.
"You?" Xia Shanliu didn't believe a word he said.
Jiang Lin didn't care whether he believed it or not, and said: "I can indeed guarantee the success rate of every furnace. If Master Xia doesn't believe it, I will go to the Duan family and inform him of the matter. When the time comes, the Duan family will come to ask for Zi Mingqi." Fire, Alchemist Xia may not be able to gain anything.”
"Why do you think Duan..."
Before Xia Shanliu finished speaking, he saw the burly figure in front of him suddenly burst out with an unimaginably powerful aura.
The six Yuanwu Realm guards were directly suppressed by this breath and fell to one knee. Their bones were creaking and they couldn't even raise their heads.
Everyone looked horrified, and Xia Shanliu even said in astonishment: "Shenwu Realm!"
He never expected that this reckless man who sneaked in through the disciple's test and wanted to obtain the Purple Ming Qihuo actually had the cultivation level of the Divine Martial Realm.
Xia Shanliu's face was extremely ugly, and he cursed the shopkeeper in his heart.
Three years of fine and thirty lashes?
Too light!
He should be cut into pieces!
Bringing a divine martial artist here with evil intentions, do you want me to die?
After all, Xia Shanliu had seen many big scenes. Although he was frightened, he was not too panicked.
"With such an explosion of cultivation, you will inevitably attract Duan's Divine Martial Realm masters to come and check. They will arrive in less than an hour or three!"
Of course this was a threat, but Jiang Lin didn't care and said: "We just want to attract the Duan family masters so that we can explain it clearly to them face to face. I think it will be 100% successful and the quality of Kong Ming Powder may be better." , coupled with the cultivation level of the third level of Shenwu Realm, it should make them curious.”
While speaking, Jiang Lin seemed to have noticed something. He glanced at a certain direction in the air, and then said: "The Duan family's people have arrived, and there is not much time left for Master Xia to think about it. This is a deal between you and me. , or make a deal with Duan, it’s your choice.”
Xia Shanliu also noticed an aura belonging to the divine martial realm, approaching quickly from a distance. It must be a master of the Duan family.
His face was very ugly. If Jiang Lin was just talking words, Xia Shanliu would never be shaken even if he said it would break the law.
But with the cultivation of this divine martial realm, it's completely different.
Even among powerful clans, there are countless masters in the Shenwu Realm. People of this level would never seek anything by lying.
From this perspective, what Jiang Lin said is at least seventy-eight percent credible.
And Jiang Lin is right. Although the Duan family has never wanted to seize the Purple Ming Qihuo, the main reason is that the success rate of Xia Shanliu in refining Kong Ming Powder is very high, and the powerful clan also needs such elixirs to improve Family strength.
If another person appears and refines Kongming San better than Xia Shanliu and has a higher success rate, Duanshi will definitely grab it without hesitation.
There are no absolute allies in this world, they are just some interests involved. Once Duan takes action, it's hard to say whether he can save his life, not to mention the benefits.
The powerful clan also wants to save face, so how can people say that they are robbing things?
When a person dies, it’s not called robbing, but picking up.
The whistling sound approached quickly, and before long, several figures descended from the sky.
A master of the Divine Martial Realm with a strong aura, not much weaker than Jiang Lin, landed next to Xia Shanliu, staring at Jiang Lin warily.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Seeing the "helper" arrive, Jiang Lin calmed down.
He did not speak immediately, but looked at Xia Shanliu, waiting for his answer.
Xia Shanliu was extremely hesitant, but when he saw that he remained silent, Jiang Lin simply said: "I am an alchemist, and I am quite experienced in Kongming San..."
As soon as these words came out, Xia Shanliu suddenly felt frightened and quickly interrupted: "Brother Zhiyuan, don't be surprised. This person is an old friend of mine. This trip is to ask for advice on the refining of Kongming Powder."
"Excuse me? Are you also an alchemist?" Duan Zhiyuan's face was full of surprise. This was the first time he saw such a powerful alchemist.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Yes." Jiang Lin saw the slight flinch in Xia Shanliu's eyes, and he had an idea in his mind. He cupped his hands and said, "I have some talent in martial arts. I just showed it to Master Xia Shanliu to see how much my cultivation has improved. I don't want to alarm him." Everyone, I’m really sorry.”
"That's it." Duan Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, then laughed and said: "As long as everything is fine, I won't bother you. If you are done with your work, brother, you can come to Duan's house to find me. I will treat you with good tea and wine. .”
Jiang Lingong cupped his hands: "Easy to say."
Then Duan Zhiyuan left with a few peak Yuanwu realm members. They were not Xia Shanliu's guards, they just came to see if anything happened.
After these people left, Xia Shanliu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Lin with a slightly complicated expression.
Jiang Lin had a faint smile on his face and said, "Master Xia Alchemy, can we talk about this deal now?"
Xia Shanliu gritted his teeth and said: "You must first prove what you just said, with at least two pill lines, you can still succeed in every furnace!"
"No problem, please ask Alchemist Xia to take a look at the alchemy recipe with me." Jiang Lin said.
Xia Shanliu was stunned for a moment, and then his face darkened, feeling that he had been tricked.
This guy has never even read the prescription for Kong Ming San. How can he guarantee the success rate?
But he still made a gesture and ordered someone to get the Kongming Sandan prescription. At the same time, he said: "Your Excellency, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you don't succeed once, don't mention this matter again."
"Of course." Jiang Lin nodded.
He didn't dare to say that the quality of the elixir was too high, but the success rate was very high.
Level 7 alchemy allows Jiang Lin to guarantee a 100% success rate when refining high-level elixirs. This is not just a casual talk.
Soon, Kong Ming San's elixir recipe, the required medicinal materials, and the stove were all prepared.
After Xia Shanliu dismissed the people around him, Jiang Lin glanced at the prescription and began to grab the medicinal materials.
He moved quickly, taking away the medicinal materials in the blink of an eye, and then stuffed them into the stove that had finished igniting the fire.
Seeing this scene, Xia Shanliu couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Such a method is inferior to that of an apprentice, it is simply ridiculous!
If Kong Ming Powder can be refined in this way, he is willing to eat all the furnace!
As for the shopkeeper, Xia Shanliu felt even more stupid at this moment.
This person must have used some method to hide the elixir in the furnace in advance and then take it out. Such a despicable method could be deceived.
It seems that the shopkeeper of Shanliutang needs to be replaced by someone smarter.
As the fire rose, the medicinal materials soon melted. Under the perfect control of the fire temperature, the concoction began to fuse quickly and transformed into what Jiang Lin needed.
Xia Shanliu stood by and felt more and more something was wrong. The medicinal materials had been burned completely, but there was no smell of paste at all.
And from the stove, a familiar light fragrance slowly floated out.
His eyes suddenly opened wide, and he quickly walked to the furnace mouth and looked inside. He saw a large amount of medicinal juice fused together on its own, and continued to condense into a round shape under the heat of the fire.
Although it has not yet been fully formed, judging from the current situation, it has greatly exceeded expectations.
"Impossible!" Xia Shanliu looked up at Jiang Lin with a look of astonishment on his face and asked, "Can you actually refine elixirs with such a technique?"
Jiang Lin smiled lightly and said: "The world is full of wonders, and the same is true for alchemy techniques. Although my method looks ridiculous, it has miraculous effects. Master Xia does not need to make a fuss."
Xia Shanliu was silent. He didn't know how to evaluate what happened in front of him.
Since he first entered the alchemy path, he is now very old and has seen countless alchemists and methods.
Some are indeed strange, but no one can compare with this one.
Just like burning firewood, stuffing the medicinal ingredients into it and simmering it all at once is okay. So what does it mean that I have been careful for many years and put in each medicinal ingredient at different times according to the fixed steps according to different heats and times?
