Chapter 94: Hong Jiuling's Attitude
What? Given to me?
Hong Jiuling lived for half his life, and everything was achieved through his hard work. He never believed in such a thing as a pie falling from the sky, but at this time, he felt like he was knocked out for the first time when he looked at the jade box.
He was already surprised that Xiao Cheng could take out three spiritual pills in front of him. He didn't expect that Xiao Cheng would give it to him so generously. If Xiao Cheng did this to buy him, he would admit it, and even felt absurd feeling that a soldier would die for his confidant.
These three Qiankun Spirit Pills are extremely valuable. In comparison, the money he gave to Xiao Cheng and the beauty he had previously was nothing.
This is a spiritual pill that can allow him to break through the second level within two years. Not to mention that he is a congenital master, even a master of Jindan will be moved. If these three spiritual pills appear in the cultivation world, it will inevitably cause an uproar and may even cause snatch from masters.
But Xiao Cheng generously gave it to him, not only to him, but also to him so carelessly, as if he didn't care about this kind of elixir.
Hong Jiuling was stunned for a while and finally came to his senses. He did not refuse, and could not even say a polite word. He had no courage to be polite.
"Thank you!" Hong Jiuling paused word by word, saying these two words, his voice was a bit stiff and his tone was a bit out of tune.
The word "Thank you" seems to be very commonly used, but it is extremely rare for him as the lord of Black City. He can no longer remember when the last time he said thank you.
Xiao Cheng smiled and saw Hong Jiuling's expression in his eyes. He could roughly feel the surprise in Hong Jiuling's heart. If he hadn't had the method of plundering spirits, he would probably have a better performance than Hong Jiuling when he saw the performance of the Spirit Pill.
"I wonder what the young master has to give? As long as I can do it, I will do my best." Hong Jiuling sat upright and said seriously.
Saying these words is equivalent to expressing his willingness to surrender to Xiao Cheng and doing things for Xiao Cheng. Hong Jiuling is a smart person. Although he was surprised just now, he did not lose the ability to think.
Since Xiao Cheng was able to give him three spiritual pills, and he gave him so carelessly, it can be seen that Xiao Cheng didn't care about this spiritual pill at all. There are two explanations: one is that Xiao Cheng has many Qiankunyun spiritual pills, at least dozens or more, and the other is that Xiao Cheng has a more advanced spiritual pill, and he doesn't even look down on this spiritual pill.
The reason why he had such a guess was actually very simple. Just like he gave Xiao Cheng money and a beauty, he had a net worth of more than one billion, and he didn't care about a small amount of five million. He had many high-end beauties, so he didn't frown when he could give ten beauties.
He urgently needed the spirit pill. If Xiao Cheng could give him three, he might give him more in the future, provided that he had to show his own value. Therefore, his first thought of accepting gifts was to show his own value and express his willingness to do things for Xiao Cheng.
In the eyes of a cultivator, following a strong man to do things is not embarrassing, or even honorable. He is the same, and he has no conflict in his mind.
Xiao Cheng is young and has already achieved a cultivation level that exceeds him. Such a person has unlimited future. The most important thing is what kind of Wang Han's aura Xiao Cheng has, and he can give him a spiritual pill at will. He is very brave. Such a person is worthy of his followers.
Of course, even though he said so, he was quite stubborn, but he was still reserved and had not yet reached the point of dying for Xiao Cheng. He could only say that while ensuring the safety of his life and property, he would do something as much as possible.
"Haha, the city lord Yan Chong, I dare not take the order. I came to find Lingcao this time, but I have no other intentions!"
Xiao Cheng naturally heard the meaning of Hong Jiuling's words, but he has never been the kind of person who is very self-reliant. If Hong Jiuling can help him, that would be the best. If he can't, he wouldn't force it.
What's more, his current strength is not as good as Hong Jiuling, and he hates trouble. If Hong Jiuling follows him, he will have to come forward to solve anything, so it's good that Hong Jiuling can help him with things. Even if it's a transaction, he doesn't want Hong Jiuling to follow him.
At first, Hong Jiuling was very disgusted with Xiao Cheng mentioning spiritual herbs, but now it is different. The spiritual herbs he reserves are used to exchange elixirs for the Zhongyuan gathering next year.
Xiao Cheng gave him three spiritual pills at one time. Compared to those hawthorn pills, it was a huge difference. He probably couldn't even get a spiritual pill for Xiao Cheng. What else could he hesitate at this time?
Hong Jiuling did not delay at all, and led the way directly in front and took Xiao Cheng to his secret room.
This is a secret room of only a dozen square meters. The walls around it are made of jade materials to prevent the loss of spiritual energy. In the center of the secret room is a marble meditation, which is obviously used for meditation and practice. Behind the meditation, there are more than a dozen different types of spiritual herbs neatly placed.
Xiao Cheng couldn't help but sigh that Hong Jiuling had indeed invested a lot in order to preserve the spirit herb. Although jade and stone materials are not as valuable as jade, they are not cheap either. These jade materials alone are probably worth tens of millions.
The way most cultivators preserve spiritual herbs is to preserve spiritual herbs in ice. This practice is indeed rare for Hongjiuling, but this method of preservation is definitely much better than the former.
However, Xiao Cheng frowned when he looked at more than a dozen spiritual herbs. The spiritual herbs he needed were fresh spiritual herbs, and most of the spiritual herbs here had been dried. The jade room preserved spiritual herbs is indeed better than freezing, and can retain spiritual energy, but cannot keep fresh.
"Young Master, how about it? Are there any need?" Hong Jiuling asked when he saw Xiao Cheng's expression was unhappy.
There are indeed many spiritual herbs in Hongjiuling. In this regard, it is richer than Xiao Fusheng and has a variety of varieties, such as Yinxin grass, calla lily, and Tianchen flowers. However, most of these spiritual herbs have dried up, so Xiao Cheng picked up five fresh spiritual herbs.
Xiao Cheng smiled and said, "Just these five spiritual herbs. I just want fresh ones. If there are fresh spiritual herbs next time, the city lord will save them with ice, and I will not let the city lord suffer a loss."
When Hong Jiuling saw that Xiao Cheng had only taken five spiritual herbs, he was slightly disappointed and thought that Xiao Cheng had limited demand for spiritual herbs.
If this happens, it will be difficult for him to impress Xiao Cheng in the future. His plan to exchange spiritual herbs for spiritual pills fell into the empty space. However, after hearing Xiao Cheng's later words, he realized that what Xiao Cheng wanted was fresh spiritual herbs. He listened to Xiao Cheng's tone and wanted any fresh spiritual herbs, so he felt at ease.
He himself did not notice his thoughts. He was reluctant to let go of the Spirit Grass at first, but now Xiao Cheng didn't take too much, but instead disappointed him. The change was too fast.
"It turns out that the young master needs something fresh. I have a high-end product that is very fresh in storage. I just don't know if the young master is looking at it." Hong Jiuling didn't want to hide his personal information and said neatly.
While speaking, he came to the meditation sitting, and took off the soft pads on the meditation sitting, and a small door appeared on the marble. Hong Jiuling opened the small door and took out a box from it.
Xiao Cheng looked at the half-meter-long box in Hong Jiuling's hand, and couldn't help but be stunned, looking forward to it.
Since Hong Jiuling hid this box so tightly, it must have an extraordinary spiritual herb inside.
Xiao Cheng's spiritual sense moved and swept over, but found that the spiritual sense could not penetrate the box. It was obviously a sealed box made of high-quality jade.
Not to mention the spiritual herbs in it, this half-meter-long jade box may be worth millions. What kind of spiritual herbs are contained in it that are worth such a piece of work?
