"You can't believe what this woman says. She talks about cooperating with you for a win-win situation, but in her heart she might be thinking about how to kill you and silence you."
After listening to Zhang Xiaozu's story, Ye Mingyue immediately reminded Zhang Xiaozu to beware of Li Shi.
It can be seen that she is a little afraid of Qian Li's scheming.
Zhang Xiaozhu nodded and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm not sure. She is definitely thinking about how to kill me and silence me. What she said is just a temporary solution, but it is undeniable that what she said is indeed good." Idea, you can give it a try. "
He has seen and experienced Qian Li's scheming and methods, so naturally he will not believe whatever Qian Li says.
"This is what's great about her." Ye Mingyue said, "Through a few simple conversations, she can guess what you want in your heart, and then describe a wonderful prospect plan that fits your mind and makes you unable to refuse. Just obey me."
"Hey, yes." Zhang Xiaozhu sighed, feeling that he was being manipulated by Qian Li again. Unfortunately, he knew he was being manipulated, but he still couldn't say anything.
Ye Mingyue glanced at Zhang Xiaopou suspiciously and asked, "Aren't you fascinated by her beauty?"
Zhang Xiaozu's eyes twitched and he said angrily: "Do you think I am Qian Tonggan?"
"Then you think she's pitiful and you're just going to let her go? She was defiled by her own brother-in-law, and she's also unfortunately pregnant. Such a tragic experience really makes people unable to help but sympathize." Ye Mingyue sighed.
Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and smiled: "The reason why what she said is empty talk is because we are not strong enough and she cannot see the prospect of a real win-win situation. , but if we have enough strength, then her words will no longer be empty words. A smart woman like her will definitely not refuse a strong partner."
Ye Mingyue suddenly turned her head and stared directly at Zhang Xiaozu's face, until Zhang Xiaozu suspected that there was something on her face, but she suddenly burst into laughter.
"Why are you laughing? Did I say something wrong?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked in confusion.
"Hey..." Ye Mingyue shook his head and sighed, and said: "You have clearly grasped her weak point, but you still want to strengthen your own strength first and gain her approval, and then cooperate with you. You are too soft-hearted. , I’m really not suitable for such intrigues, you’d better let Qian Ruoyun negotiate with Qian Li.”
If the competition is ruthless, Li's ten dollars combined may not be as good as Ye Mingyue's.
You must know that she was once the leader of the six shadow sects based on her strength, and most of the things the shadow sect did were shady things. Without a cold-blooded and cruel heart, it would be impossible to complete the shadow sect's mission. , let alone becoming the master of the Shadow Sect.
She was just influenced by Zhang Xiaozu, and now she rarely shows her dark and cold-blooded side.
"Really?" Zhang Xiaozhu smiled awkwardly.
"That's good, you have your own unique appeal." Ye Mingyue said.
"What kind of unique appeal, why don't I feel it myself?"
Ye Mingyue turned her head and stared at Zhang Xiaopou's face for a while, and then said three words: "Human touch."
"Human touch?" Zhang Xiaozhu pinched his chin and started thinking.
"Perhaps you haven't noticed it yourself. When we are with you, no matter whether we are rich or poor, or high or low in cultivation, no one will feel restrained. They will relax unconsciously and get along with you in a natural and comfortable way."
"So I'm so good?" Zhang Xiaozhu puffed up his chest and raised the corners of his mouth proudly.
"But -" Ye Mingyue changed her tone and said: "The enemy is not afraid of you either. Even if he has suffered losses at your hands, he will still feel that you are easy to handle next time he meets you. To put it simply: He is indecisive and not ruthless enough.”
"Really?" The corner of Zhang Xiaozu's mouth twitched in embarrassment, then he made a vicious expression and said in a deep voice: "Next time I meet the enemy, I will be more aggressive so that their legs will tremble when they see me in the future."
Ye Mingyue smiled and said: "You are who you are, there is no need to change, just pursue your own heart. I like you like this."
in the room
When the girls heard Ye Mingyue's straightforward words, their expressions all became strange. If they weren't professional enough, they would probably have nauseated on the spot.
After all, two grown men clinging to each other, loving each other and talking to each other, is really eye-catching.
The two spent the night in a private room, and also monitored Xiang Qingtian for the whole night. They found that Xiang Qingtian was carefree, completely immersed in wine, sex, and joy. He invited more than a dozen beautiful girls to sing and dance. We played until almost dawn before falling asleep drunkenly.
After a night of observation, Zhang Xiaozhu felt the same as Ye Mingyue, and felt that Xiang Qingtian really seemed to have lost his memory.
But to be on the safe side, they plan to observe it for a few more days.
Ye Mingyue stayed and continued to observe Xiang Qingtian, while Zhang Xiaozu returned to the inn.
The day before yesterday, he had responded to the request of the alchemy seekers at the door of the inn and agreed to help them refine elixirs, so he wanted to take advantage of the time in these two days to refine them for them.
With the announcement of yesterday's competition results, the qualifying competition officially came to an end. He ranked first and successfully advanced to the main competition on the eighth day of March.
Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, he and other specially invited alchemists, as well as the other forty-nine alchemists who made it out of the preliminary round, as well as the contestants from the weapon refining side, will gather at Tianfu Square, and then Liujiabao will send They were taken into the fort.
Zhang Xiaozu plans to continue refining alchemy from this morning until noon tomorrow, including tonight.
He planned to use this short period of just over a day to fully establish his name in Paradise City.
In fact, his name has spread in Paradise City, especially after the results of the competition the day before yesterday and yesterday were announced. His outstanding results have attracted the attention of the major families in Paradise City.
" Master Zhang, please help me refine a furnace of Tongxuan Dan, please!"
"Master Zhang, please help me refine a furnace of star pills."
"Master Zhang..."
Zhang Xiaozu came to the opposite side of the street in front of Jinshiyuan Inn and was immediately surrounded by a group of people seeking elixirs.
Without Qian Ruoyun, there was no one to help maintain order.
He raised his hand and pointed towards the east side of the street and said: "Those who want to make alchemy please queue up consciously. If you jump in line or disrupt the order, please stop it together. If you don't listen to the advice, I will blacklist you and I will never help you." Its alchemy."
Wow!
Before Zhang Xiaozu could even finish his words, the crowd rushed towards the direction of his finger, vying to line up.
If he hadn't warned in advance, those who disturbed the order would be blacklisted. It is estimated that many people would have quarreled for the front position, and there might even have been physical conflicts.
Zhang Xiaozu cleared an open space of ten feet to the east and west, took out the alchemy furnace and was about to start, but when he looked at the endless queue, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
He thought for a moment, looked around, and was about to speak when suddenly an old man in Confucian robes came up to him and asked with a smile: "Master Zhang, do you need any help? I am the shopkeeper of Jinshiyuan Inn. Dai Zongsheng has met Mr. Zhang."
"Shopkeeper Dai is so polite." Zhang Xiaozhu replied, "I have two things I would like to ask my friends around for help."
Many people around him felt annoyed when they heard this, blaming themselves for not being discerning and missing an opportunity to get closer to Zhang Xiaozu.
At the same time, he also secretly admired Dai Zongsheng, saying that he was worthy of being the shopkeeper of Jinshiyuan Inn. His ability to observe people's emotions was so strong that he could immediately tell that something was wrong with Zhang Xiaozu just by looking at him.
"Ah, ah, ah, this old man has neglected his duty and deserves to die." Dai Zong bowed apologetically to Zhang Xiaopou, "Young master is a distinguished guest of our Jinshiyuan Inn, and now you are in front of the inn. You need help from others when you have something. We have really failed in our service. We have neglected our distinguished guest, please punish Mr. Zhang!"
"Shopkeeper Dai is serious."
"I wonder what the young master has to say? I and Jinshiyuan Inn will do their best to help the young master solve his problems."
"I don't dare to accept my orders. I would like to borrow four alchemy furnaces for use, and find a few people to help me clean the alchemy furnaces." Zhang Xiaozhu heard that Dai Zongsheng spoke so kindly, so he stopped being polite to him and directly said his own need.
"It's a small matter, I'll arrange it right now." Dai Zongsheng agreed.
An old man with a goatee next to him hurriedly took a few steps forward and asked Zhang Xiaopou, "I wonder what kind of alchemy furnace Mr. Zhang needs? How many of them do you have? I don't know whether Mr. Zhang can choose one?"
[In view of the general environment,
Saying that, without waiting for Zhang Xiaozu's reply, he took out eight cauldrons of various alchemy furnaces from the void space in one breath and arranged them in a row for Zhang Xiaozu to choose from.
"You can tell at a glance that these alchemy furnaces of Yang Huoshi are treasures, and I'm afraid they might be damaged by accident." Zhang Xiaozu said as he looked at the old man with the goatee's alchemy furnace.
This old man with a goatee had introduced himself to him. He had the impression that his name was Yang Ziqin, and he was the talker of the Dingtian Dan Pavilion.
This person is also an alchemist, and the alchemy furnaces he took out are indeed treasures in his collection.
When Yang Ziqin heard that Zhang Xiaopou actually remembered him, he couldn't help but smile. He waved his hand and said, "Master Zhang, just use it. If you use it, it will break. I promise that I will never rely on you, haha..."
"Thank you Yang Ziqin for your generosity. You'll be welcome." Zhang Xiaozu bowed to Yang Ziqin and thanked him, then pointed at Yang Ziqin's alchemy furnace and said, "Just the four tripods on the left."
He could see that Yang Ziqin's eight-cauldron alchemy furnace was a good product and any one of them would be sufficient, so he did not choose carefully.
Dai Zongsheng was not angry because Yang Ziqin took his job, and said: "Master, why don't you go to the inn to make elixirs? I will find a spacious place for you. The street here is really crowded and can easily block the street." .”
Zhang Xiaozu nodded when he heard this and said, "Then I'll ask Shopkeeper Dai to make some arrangements."
Later he wants five alchemy furnaces to make alchemy together. It is indeed too crowded on the street.
In less than a stick of incense, Zhang Xiaozu and a group of people, under the arrangement of Dai Zongsheng, entered a wide open space inside the inn in an orderly manner.
Dai Zongsheng not only arranged for ten strong men to clean the alchemy furnace for Zhang, he also arranged many people to maintain order.
There is a special alchemy room in Jinshiyuan Inn. Dai Zongsheng wanted to arrange one for Zhang Xiaozu, but Zhang Xiaozu refused.
Because the space in the alchemy room is relatively small, so many people cannot watch if he is refining alchemy inside. Zhang Xiaozu wants people to come and watch him refining alchemy, so as to achieve the purpose of shocking everyone.
Those who were eager to learn a few tricks secretly were overjoyed when they heard that Zhang Xiaozu refused the alchemy room arranged by Dai Zongsheng.
But they don't know that Zhang Xiaopou's alchemy is a unique skill, and it is impossible to learn it secretly. If you try to learn it secretly, you will end up like the two great masters of alchemy, Yan Mingchao and Shang Susu, who have been blowing up the furnace since yesterday.
Zhang Xiaozu first set up a large spirit gathering formation, and then placed one of his own pill furnaces and Yang Ziqin's four pill furnaces in a circle around them.
"Oh my god, what does he want to do? Doesn't he want to refine five alchemy furnaces together?"
"This...this is too cruel!"
"Probably not. He probably didn't want to waste time cleaning the alchemy furnace and wanted to refine one furnace immediately, so he set up five alchemy furnaces."
When the onlookers saw this, they started talking and speculating in shock.
After Zhang Xiaozu set up the alchemy furnace, he looked at the alchemy team and shouted: "I need to get familiar with the four alchemy furnaces of Yang Huashi, so I will refine some simple elixirs in the first few furnaces, including the Star-Shattering Pill. My friends from Xingchen Dan, please come over first. Don’t worry, the furnace shouldn’t explode.”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this.
It's not because Zhang Xiaozu joked about exploding the furnace, but because Zhang Xiaozu regarded Broken Star Pill and Star Pill as simple pills.
Although these two elixirs cannot be said to be extremely difficult for alchemists, they are definitely not easy, because if you can refine these two elixirs well, you will already have half a foot in the realm of a great alchemist.
However, Zhang Xiaozu regarded these two elixirs as simple elixirs for hand training.
At first glance, it sounded too loud, but after thinking about it for a moment, I couldn't refute it, because this guy can make thirty top-quality Star-Breaking Pills in one furnace.
Able to refine twenty-five star pills in one furnace, his record is impressive.
Soon, five people who were asking for the Shattering Star Pill and the Star Pill stepped forward and handed Zhang Xiaozu the elixir and spiritual materials for the elixir, leaving the cost of the elixir.
Zhang Xiaozhu didn't know the cost of refining various elixirs, so he simply took out a large bucket filled with water and put it aside for the person who asked for the elixirs to watch and give it to him.
Zhang Xiaozu accepted the elixir and spiritual materials, walked to the middle of the five alchemy furnaces and sat down cross-legged, and then offered the Zixia Danhuo.
call!
Five flames flew in five directions and landed under the five alchemy furnaces.
"I'll go, it's true! He really wants five alchemy furnaces to be refined together!"
"It's an eye-opener. Today is really an eye-opener!"
"This is... too crazy!"
The crowd of onlookers suddenly became excited.
