Chapter 189 The current situation of Song Zhishu!
“I’ve met Alchemist Zhou!”
This is an old man dressed as a Confucian scholar with some gray hair, holding a folding fan in his hand.
It is the book of Song Dynasty.
When Zhou Xun met him for the first time, Zhou Xun was only twenty years old, and his cultivation level was only at the fourth level of Qi training.
Now thirty years have passed, and Song Zhishu, who originally looked middle-aged, has become older, with his hair turning gray and wrinkles appearing on his face.
And his current cultivation level is also in the late stage of Qi training.
Unfortunately, he is now in his seventies, and it is difficult for him to improve his cultivation.
Generally speaking, after a qi cultivator reaches the age of sixty, not only will the success rate of foundation building drop significantly, but the difficulty of improving his cultivation level will also increase exponentially.
The same is true for Song Zhishu. After breaking through the late stage of Qi training more than ten years ago, his cultivation has never progressed.
However, for him, it is a blessing to reach the late stage of Qi training in this life.
After all, he is just a low-grade spiritual root.
"When did Fellow Daoist Song arrive?"
Zhou Xun was also happy to see his old friend.
“I received a letter from Alchemist Zhou two years ago, and after discussion within the clan, we finally decided to send me and Alchemist Zhou to transport the high-grade spiritual stone!”
Song Zhishu said, taking out an exquisite jade box from the storage bag, with a sealing talisman on it to prevent the spiritual energy from leaking.
When Zhou Xun saw this, his eyes lit up.
Another high-grade spiritual stone, it was extremely important to him at the moment when the beast tide was definitely going to happen.
With the high-grade spiritual stone, he can drive the quasi-third-level puppet.
However, what surprised him was that the high-grade spiritual stones worth more than thirteen thousand spiritual stones were actually transported by Song Zhishu, a monk in the late stage of Qi training.
Thirteen thousand spiritual stones are a wealth that most foundation-building monks do not have.
How can they feel relieved?
After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Xun understood the reason.
One thing is that Song Zhishu is an upright man and is well-known throughout Qingyuefang.
Er Song Zhishu is already old and has passed the sixty-year-old foundation-building mark. There will be basically no big development in his cultivation in the future.
Even if he ran away with this high-grade spiritual stone, it would not solve his cultivation dilemma.
And his descendants live in Qingyuefang.
The third is his relationship with Zhou Xun. He was originally the messenger of the Song family responsible for communicating with Zhou Xun, and he was also the person who had the closest relationship with Zhou Xun besides Song Yiqing.
He is the most suitable candidate both emotionally and rationally.
“Thank you for your hard work, Fellow Daoist Song!”
"I wonder how many Lingshi exchanges are needed?"
Zhou Xun pointed to the jade box in front of him.
“Ten thousand spirit stones are enough!”
Zhou Xun nodded. It seemed that the Song family and the Lin family had the same idea.
It was a rare opportunity to get Zhou Xun to write a letter of help, and to make Zhou Xun owe a favor, so naturally he couldn't let it go.
So Zhou Xun pointed out a hundred middle-grade spiritual stones and handed them to Song Zhishu.
Song Zhishu put it into the storage bag without looking at it.
“Speaking of which, my third uncle got this high-grade spiritual stone in exchange for his connections with the Yunguang Sect. This is why I just sent this spiritual stone here now!”
Song Zhishu then talked about the origin of the spirit stone.
It also shows the sincerity of the Song family.
The Song family spared no effort in supporting Zhou Xun.
It’s a married daughter and a gift!
"I see, this is troublesome for our ancestors. If something happens in the future and Zhou needs to take action, it will naturally be his responsibility!"
For this, Zhou Xun naturally appreciates this, and at the same time he also makes his own decision. commitment.
Song Zhishu laughed when he heard this, his goal was achieved.
Then they started chatting about this auction event.
“When I come here this time, I do need Master Zhou’s help with something!”
“My young master has been at the ninth level of Qi training for some time, and the next step is to build the foundation. "
"It's a pity that Yunguang Sect has strictly controlled the leakage of level-breaking pills such as Foundation Building Pills in recent years, and our Song family can't get them."
"It just so happens that this time it is Baiyun Immortal City. There is an auction for Foundation Establishment Pills in the annual auction. This is also my second mission here!" "However, there are many people competing for Foundation Establishment Pills, and our Song family is not a nearby family, so it is easy to become the target of public criticism. I wonder if we can ask Alchemist Zhou to take a photo of this elixir for us?”
"Of course, our Song family should be responsible for all the spiritual stones spent!"
For this matter, Zhou Xun naturally agreed.
After Song Zhishu left, the news that Zhou Xun returned to Jinquan Lane spread like wildfire.
The neighbors in Jinquan Lane came to visit one after another,
Zhou Xun naturally received him warmly.
What surprised Zhou Xun was that someone else came to Zhou Xun to refine elixirs, and they were refining extremely rare and precious elixirs such as Foundation Establishment Pills.
The clients turned out to be Fairy Mingyue and Fang Tianlun back then (Chapter 23 of this volume).
“Fellow Daoist Fang and Fairy Mingyue, we haven’t seen each other for a long time!”
“I’ve met Alchemist Zhou!” As soon as the beautiful woman and the middle-aged man saw Zhou Xun, they bowed respectfully and bowed to the ground. .
Twenty years have passed, and today Fairy Mingyue has shown a mature charm, which is even more exciting.
"We took the liberty to come here because we want to ask Alchemist Zhou to help us refine a batch of elixirs. All the rewards will be based on the market price!" The two said and gave another gift.
"You two fellow Taoists are very polite. You and I have known each other for many years. It's just a batch of pills. Of course I agree!" Zhou Xun laughed, not showing any airs as a senior.
“I wonder what kind of elixir you are trying to refine?”
Zhou Xun asked curiously. Seeing the two people looking so solemn, it seemed that it was not an ordinary thing.
The two looked at each other and each took out several elixirs from their storage bags.
“Earth Spirit Grass!”
“Dragon Heart Fruit!”
“Mingqian Flower!”
“Yun Ganoderma!”
There are also some more common elixirs.
This is a complete foundation building pill material.
“The two fellow Taoists were lucky enough to have collected a complete set of foundation building pill materials!”
Zhou Xun looked surprised.
You must know that it was a coincidence that he gathered the three auxiliary ingredients of the Foundation Establishment Pill, and the main ingredient was also replaced by the second-level demon pill.
Unexpectedly, these two people collected them all.
"Alchemist Zhou is so complimentary, we are both lucky!" Fang Tianlun was extremely humble.
"Okay, I've made this furnace of elixirs for you, but first of all, Zhou can't guarantee the success rate this time."
"If one elixir is produced or It’s a complete failure. I won’t get a penny from this refining,”
“If two elixirs are produced, you need to pay me the refining fee of one thousand spirit stones,”
"If three pills are produced, the third foundation-building pill will be mine, and no other fees will be charged. How about that?"
What Zhou Xun said was also the price quoted by the other alchemists in Baiyun Immortal City.
When the two heard this, there was no problem, and they said in unison:
“It’s just like Alchemist Zhou said!”
Zhou Xun nodded, put away the elixir, Then he walked into the training room.
A few hours later, the door to the training room opened again.
Zhou Xun handed the two medicine bottles to Fang Tianlun and Fairy Mingyue.
"The refining was extremely successful. Three elixirs were produced. These two are yours, and you don't have to pay for them!"
As he said this, he handed the medicine bottle to the two of them.
Fang Tianlun and Fairy Mingyue were overjoyed and hurriedly took it, then bowed and saluted again.
"Thank you, Alchemist Zhou!"
"I wish you both success in building the foundation!" Looking at the two people's peak Qi cultivation, Zhou Xun smiled and congratulated.
Among the two, Fang Tianlun is slightly older and is close to sixty. I am afraid that the chance of breakthrough is not as good as that of Fairy Mingyue.
Time flies, and soon the day of the auction is coming.
Zhou Xun took Song Yiqing with him. The auction was still held at the Green Ape Hall.
