Chapter 54 [Alchemy Workshop](1/2)
After entering the city gate.
The first thing that caught my eye was a team of monks from Qi training stage, waiting for battle on the city wall.
Then there are quite tall buildings in the city.
Perhaps most of them are built with stones. Whether it is an ordinary house or a shop, it is significantly larger than the ones on Xuangui Island.
That's why Gu Changsheng felt the city of a giant's life.
Under the leadership of that group of monks, Gu Changsheng and his two soon arrived in a large building in the center of the city, handed them over to a foundation-building cultivator, and then retreated.
The moment he saw this monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Gu Changsheng became alert and couldn't help but look at him carefully.
The other party looked like a middle-aged man in his thirties and had a short beard of more than an inch long. Although he was cleaned up very cleanly, he gave people a feeling of being strong on the outside but being fucked on the inside.
But Gu Changsheng knew that his perception would not be wrong, and the other party must at least be in the middle stage of foundation building.
"Little guy, have you seen enough?"
After the other party lowered his head and finished the work in his hand, he immediately smiled at Gu Changsheng.
Although most of the questions are questioned in words, the smile is very gentle.
"Uncle Zhu."
Before Gu Changsheng could answer, Cui Yang beside him shouted first.
"Haha! It turns out it's Cui Yatou. Since you have come to Changqingdao, hurry back to your Ziyun Pavilion to report your father's safety!"
"Okay, thank you Uncle Zhu."
The excited Cui Yang was about to walk out the door, but he stopped again after seeing Gu Changsheng beside him.
"Uncle Zhu, Brother Gu escorted me back all the way. He is my savior. You can't make things difficult for him!"
"Don't worry, I'm just asking him routinely."
The full name of the great monk in the foundation-building stage who was called Uncle Zhu by Cui Yang was Zhu Mingming. After seeing off Cui Yang, he looked at Gu Changsheng standing below.
"Little guy, what's your name?"
"Gu Changsheng."
"A good name, immortality is the ultimate goal of every monk, but there are no one who can truly immortality."
"Senior, in fact, a great monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage who can live two hundred years old like you is already a god-like figure to mortals."
"Haha, my friend can speak."
"I don't say anything nonsense anymore. I think my friend is at the ninth level of Qi training, and his strength is the best in the Qi training stage, so I invite you to join the team to resist the island of monsters. I wonder what you think?" Zhu Mingming went straight to the point.
"Can I refuse?"
Gu Changsheng asked directly.
"Haha! My friend is one of the few interesting people I have met."
"It is an extraordinary period. Because I am surrounded by tens of thousands of monsters, all monks on the island are forced to join the team to resist monsters, so I cannot refuse."
"However, for the sake of saving Cui Yatou, I can give you two choices."
"First, be the captain of the resistance team and lead your team to fight to kill the enemy."
"The second is that I observe that you have a strong spiritual herb aura. I think you are also an alchemist! You can refine pills in the back. Although the reward is not much, it is better than safety."
When Gu Changsheng heard this, his heart became nervous.
At the same time, he smelled the body calmly with his nose, but did not ask about the smell of spiritual herbs mentioned by the other party, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
I thought to myself: Are all the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage so powerful?
Zhu Mingming seemed to be able to guess what Gu Changsheng was thinking, and said with a smile:
"My friend Gu, don't think too much. Because I know some observation of luck and are good at refining alchemy, I can see the rich spiritual herb aura on you, which is something that ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage cannot see." Zhu Mingming explained.
"In addition, I also observed that you, Xiaoyou Gu, have a very strong evil spirit, and you have killed a large number of monsters and were infected with it."
"Although I can't even imagine why you, a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi training, can kill so many monsters and form such a strong Yin evil spirit, but I also know that everyone has their own secrets, so I don't want to go to the bottom of it."
"But I still want to advise you that if this matter is sensed by the monster, it may be targeted."
"So my opinion is that Gu Xiaoyou, you choose the second one, and help the defender in front of you to refine pills."
As a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Zhu Mingming said so much to Gu Changsheng, which is considered to be the ultimate righteousness. As for how to choose, it depends on Gu Changsheng himself.
Originally, Gu Changsheng had no interest in becoming an alchemist in the rear, and wanted to lead a team to resist the besieged monsters.
He didn't want to fight against monsters, but felt that after becoming the captain of the squad, he could freely enter and exit the Changqing City.
If he wants to leave, it will definitely be easier.
But now after hearing the analysis of the foundation-building stage in front of me, I began to hesitate.
It wasn't what the other party said was wrong, but it wasn't that what the other party said was right.
Because when refining the body to solve the problem of life span, Gu Changsheng killed hundreds of monsters, so what the other party said was not bad at all.
It was his amazing Yinsha Qi that did not completely kill the monster. Part of the reason was the result of using the mixed corpse liquid mixed with Yin attribute true Qi to refine the body.
Also, after refining the body for the last ninth time, the Yin evil energy contained in the body increased sharply. It must have happened after he was unconscious that something he didn't know happened again.
But thinking about this now would be useless.
After Gu Changsheng thought about it, he felt that the foundation-building period in front of him was right.
Even though the great monster with hundreds of years of cultivation could not feel the large amount of evil spirits contaminated by killing monsters on his body, the existence of the Dan-King stage could definitely feel it, so he did not dare to gamble.
If he encounters the existence of the Dan-Jing stage when he leaves the city, he will be in trouble.
at last.
Gu Changsheng still accepted Zhu Mingming's suggestion and became an alchemist in the rear.
After sending Gu Changsheng away, Zhu Mingming showed a somewhat cunning smile.
"Little guy, this monster is not as good as my luck. I guess even the monsters in the Killing Dan stage can't see the rich evil aura on his body."
"It's really strange things happen every year, and this year there are a lot of them. First, monsters siege the city, but now another alchemist with such a strong and sinister aura has come. How strange! How strange!"
As he spoke, the voice gradually became weaker and inaudible.
......
Let’s talk about Gu Changsheng. He took a token carved with a elixir furnace given by Zhu Mingming. According to the direction he pointed, he turned a few turns in the huge building and came to a small courtyard with the plaque saying “Alchemy Shop”.
As soon as he walked in, Gu Changsheng had not had time to check the environment in the yard, he was attracted by a yell.
"Hey! Who are you? Don't know if we don't accept the cultivator's alchemy request now? If there is nothing else, go out quickly!"
A young monk wearing a dark gray Taoist robe, a small elixir embroidered with a cuff, and a freckled face said without hesitation.
"I'm the one assigned by Elder Zhu Mingming to refine the alchemy."
Gu Changsheng didn't bother with the other party and directly explained his purpose.
"Ah! You were recommended by Elder Zhu. I offended you so much just now. I treat you as an ordinary monk who came to ask for pills. I'm so sorry."
This young freckle monk, when he heard that Gu Changsheng was introduced by Elder Zhu Mingming, his attitude changed by 180 degrees.
The speed of changing faces is very fast.
Gu Changsheng was not surprised, and knew that some practitioners who were often capable had some strange tempers, just like the drunkard who was very caring for him, but was rumored to be moody.
Like the freckled young monk in front of him, he was just a little snobbish, and Gu Changsheng could completely accept it.
"It doesn't matter."
"Haha! Since our Changqing Island was besieged by tens of thousands of monsters a few days ago, all the alchemists on the island have been forced to collect here to refine alchemy. There are so many tasks assigned!"
"We will be more relaxed when you come."
"I haven't asked what the fellow Taoist's name is yet! I'll introduce myself first. My name is Xue Jinshan. You can call me Xiao Jin. Everyone calls me that."
The freckled young man, also known as Xue Jinshan, said in a familiar way.
"Gu Changsheng."
Gu Changsheng said expressionlessly.
"I think you are a few years older than me, so I will call you Brother Gu!"
“…”
Gu Changsheng looked at Xue Jinshan, who was in his twenties and thought to himself: I am only seventeen years old.
Cui Yang was actually funny than him before.
But after nine times of refining his body, although he successfully became a special blood corpse and solved the problem of life span, he also made his appearance a little old and looked more like he was in his twenties.
In addition, he had gray hair and said that he was thirty years old and someone believed it.
That's why Xue Jinshan thought that he was a man of a few years older than him.
This is just a small episode.
