"As a congratulatory gift from the Zhang family in Tianping, two boxes of top-grade "Yinling Flowers", five hundred thousand spiritual stones, a picture of a child from the old monk, and ten pieces of blue brocade!"
"Congratulations to the Mu family in Beiluan, fifty pills of Qingke Dan, ten fine snow ginseng plants, two boxes of the sixth-grade spiritual meal "Immortal Turtle Birthday", five million spiritual stones, a picture of being enthroned as an immortal, and ten snow silkworm cloud brocades match!"
"The Xun family of Lishuizhou has fifty boxes of golden angelica, one million spiritual stones, a picture of blessings from the gods, and ten pieces of orchid and water silk!"
…
"Come on, come on, drink!"
"drink!"
"Try this, the meat is so tender!"
"Hmm! It smells good!"
Along with the bursts of loud greetings coming from the entrance of Huangyu Palace, more than a hundred tables in Huangyu Square were filled with people. The dishes and wine had already been served, and people were eating and drinking in full swing.
Each table has 8 hot, 8 cold, and 16 plates of exquisite meals, ten second-course meals, four third-course meals, two fourth-course meals, and two soups.
There are a variety of dishes, including delicacies from the mountains and seas, including steamed bear paws with ginseng, shark fin powder with phoenix flowers, three-for-one deer, fried Linghe delicacies, etc.
"Thank you all fellow Taoists for coming to support us. I would like to show my respect to you as a Taoist!" At this time, Ming Yi, the sixth elder of Huang Shengzong, the protagonist of the ceremony, stood at the entrance of the Yellow Jade Hall, wearing a heavenly crown on his head and wearing a gorgeous "Moiré Pattern Fortune, Longevity and Immortal Robe" , cheerfully toasted to the guests in the square and thanked him.
"I wish you good luck, senior!" With a roar, all the guests in the square raised their glasses and stood up, congratulating together.
"Thank you all Taoist friends for coming because of your busy schedule. If there is anything wrong with the reception, I hope you will forgive me. Ling Yu would like to thank you in advance!" Taoist monk Ling Yu, the Taoist companion next to the Sixth Elder Ming Yi, was blushing. Guang, dressed in red, raised his glass and said with a smile.
"Okay!" Everyone couldn't help but cheer.
"Ziu!" After Ming Yi and his wife turned around and returned to the inner hall, everyone sat down one after another. Taoist Qiu Hao raised his head and drank a cup, then sat back down with an expressionless face.
"Master, I'd like to give you a drink!" Seeing that Master seemed unhappy, Huang Tianji, the eldest disciple beside Taoist Qiu Hao, stood up and gave Taoist Qiu Hao a drink and said.
"Yeah!" Taoist Qiu Hao raised it and drank it all in one mouthful.
However, the originally sweet and mellow fourth-grade spiritual wine "Shu Feng" felt bitter in the mouth. I thought that Ming Yi had not built the foundation a few years earlier than me, but now he has been promoted to the golden elixir. Looking back on himself, alas!
Then the other disciples at the same table and the descendants of the Huang family came forward one by one to toast.
Taoist Qiu Hao drank more than ten drinks in a row. Feeling depressed, he stood up and walked to the viewing platform to enjoy the mountain breeze. The table where he sat was just outside Huangyu Square.
Taoist Qiu Hao stood in front of the jade railing of the diving platform, looking at the green mist in the valley and the sea of clouds over the mountains. His left hand unconsciously grasped the railing, and he thought to himself: If Mu Tianming can do it, I, Huang Tianhao, can do it too!
"Senior brother is here!"
"It's Junior Brother Xuanyu!"
At this time, there was a greeting behind him, Taoist Qiu Hao turned around and saw Junior Brother Xuanyu from the Xuanzi lineage walking into the viewing pavilion with two glasses of wine.
"Little brother, let's toast to senior brother!" Liu Yu handed Huang Tianhao a glass of wine and saluted.
"Thank you, junior brother!" Huang Tianhao took the wine glass and took a sip, and the two of them immediately sat down at the stone table in the pavilion.
"Junior brother is a busy man. If you want to meet him for a drink on weekdays, you can't find him!" Huang Tianhao said jokingly.
"Senior brother, you are joking, you are all busy!" Liu Yu replied with a chuckle.
"I came to see you today, senior brother. Do you have anything to do?" Huang Tianhao said as the two clinked glasses and took a sip.
"I do have something I want to discuss with my senior brother!" Liu Yu came to Huang Tianhao, and it was true that he had something to discuss.
"Junior Brother, that's what I said!" Junior Brother Liu usually lives in seclusion and rarely interacts with me. He came here to look for him, so he must have something to do.
"I heard from Master that Elder Qiu Mu has Zhang Sanqiao's seventh-grade alchemy talisman in his hand, called "Golden Summit". I would like to ask, is this talisman really there?" Liu Yu looked around and saw no one else. , and then whispered.
"Junior brother, what do you mean by this!" Huang Tianhao couldn't help but frown slightly.
"If there is such a talisman, I wonder if Elder Qiu Mu can part with it. I recently want to buy an alchemy talisman for self-defense!" Liu Yu said bluntly without hiding it.
Huang Tianhao was stunned when he heard this. Are you kidding? The Huang family doesn't have many such talismans. Let alone selling them, there is no place to buy them in Yunzhou. But he quickly regained his composure and said politely: "This talisman is from my great-grandfather." When I was traveling in Zhongzhou, I occasionally got it at a high price. He always treasures it, and I may disappoint you, junior brother!"
"I know that this kind of elixir is very precious, but I would like to ask my senior brother to tell the third elder on my behalf that I am willing to take out the "Thousand Life Pill" rewarded by the sect and add another hundred "Qingke Dan". In exchange for this talisman!”
Of course Liu Yu knew that the Huang family had no intention of selling this talisman, but since he had the "Thousand Life Pill" in his hand, there was still hope for the matter, so he immediately quoted the price.
"Oh!..." Huang Tianhao's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard "Qianshou Dan".
"Please also ask Senior Brother to report to the Third Elder whether it succeeds or not, I will thank Senior Brother!" Seeing Huang Tianhao's expression, Liu Yu knew there was an opportunity and continued.
"This talisman is indeed his old man's favorite thing. Junior brother, otherwise, this "Thousand Life Pill" senior brother is willing to give you 300 Qingke Dan, and you can sell it to my brother." Huang Tianhao suppressed his excitement and looked forward to it. said.
Then he added: "Junior brother, if you think it's missing, I can add some more!"
"My little brother has offended a big family in the sect. Senior brother, you should know that I have been trapped in the sect these years and dare not go down the mountain, but I can't stay like this forever, so I want to find an elixir to keep me safe from sudden death!"
"This "Thousand Life Pill" is what I use to exchange for the pill. It is not sold alone. If the Third Elder is unwilling to give up his love, I can only ask the master to go to Lingbing Palace or Ten Thousand Medicine Valley to try my luck. I hope senior brother will take it seriously!" Liu Yu said apologetically.
"Thousands of Life Pill" is the most important bargaining chip in Liu Yu's hand. Naturally, he will not sell it alone. Only this pill can attract the interest of these Jindan families.
"Hmph! As a brother, I naturally know what happened between my junior brother and his family. The fault is not on my junior brother's fault. Everyone in the sect sees what is right or wrong. It's just a pain for you, junior brother!"
Huang Tianhao was furious for Liu Yu, and then the conversation changed: "In addition to this "Golden Summit" alchemy talisman, the old man also has several sixth-grade pseudo-alchemy talismans, and a second-orifice and seventh-grade alchemy talisman "Guangfeng". "
"Brother, I can persuade him to exchange this "Gust Wind" for my junior brother. There is no need to add a hundred "Qing Ke Dan", fifty is enough, what do you think, junior brother!"
Huang Tianhao heard from his ancestor that the market price of Zhongzhou's alchemy talisman is about 300 "Qingke Dan" for a seventh-grade alchemy talisman with a first orifice, and about 400 "Qingke Dan" for a seventh-grade orifice talisman.
The third orifice and seventh-level elixir talisman is about 500 "Qingke Dan". His "Golden Top" was picked up and spent 480 Qingke Dan.
The "Thousands of Life Pills" only cost a little more than 300 Qingke Pills each. However, they are expensive and not easily available. The ancestor asked fellow Taoists in Zhongzhou to help him keep an eye on the news about this pill.
But to this day, I have not purchased this elixir.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother, but what I need is a defensive elixir. I heard from my master that this "Gust Wind" is an attack elixir."
"In this way, I will add another forty Green Guest Pills, for a total of one hundred and forty pills. I also ask my senior brother to fight for it from the third elder on my behalf!" Liu Yu knew that his bid was a bit low, so he thought for a moment and gritted his teeth.
This is already the highest price Liu Yu can offer, and if it comes to fruition, these one hundred and forty pills will need to be borrowed from the founder Xuanmu Zhenren first.
Now he doesn't have a Qingke Dan in his body. The last one was taken and refined yesterday. From now on, he can only put down the practice of "Qingyuan Jue".
Fortunately, he had taken a total of 774 Qing Ke Dan, and had mastered this technique to a small degree. The Qing Ke Dan obtained in the next forty years could only be used to pay off debts.
Because Liu Yufang had just calculated, in the next forty years, he would only be able to collect around 140 Qingke Dan pills at most.
"This..." Huang Tianhao clenched one hand and fell into deep thought again.
At this moment, bursts of cheers rang out in Huangyu Square. It turned out that the sect master Sheng Yi Zhenren and the elders of the sect were leading a group of visiting dignitaries out of the inner hall, attracting all the disciples eating in the square. Stand up and look out.
"Junior brother, prepare the Thousand Life Pills and wait for the good news for me!" Looking at the door of the inner hall, accompanied by many Jindan elders, Ming Yi was in high spirits, Huang Tianhao raised his head and drank the last bit of wine in the cup. Said in a deep voice.
