"Oh? You're back. Is it done?"
"It's done. Ah~~I'm so hungry. Is there anything to eat?"
"There is a wowotou."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you for your hard work." Shangluo sat on the sofa and started to eat steamed buns. He didn't even drink water, he just ate it with gusto.
"Is this food really that delicious?" Phaethon sat on the small sofa next to him and broke off a piece to taste.
This taste can't be said to be comparable to delicacies from the mountains and seas, at least it is lighter than a bird.
It had no flavor at all because there was really only a tiny pinch of seasoning that even a dog couldn't smell.
But Shangluo ate most of the steamed buns in a short time without even leaving any dregs.
"Ah, as long as you are happy." She also prepared dinner for herself. It was also a pile of steamed buns, but she poured herself a glass of milk, prepared some salty peanut butter in a tube, and then sliced the steamed buns into slices. Take a bite soaked in milk, and then eat some squeezed peanut butter.
It tastes much better this way. First of all, the base of this steamed bun is delicious. When soaked in milk, it becomes soft and fragrant. When spread with peanut butter, it becomes fragrant and soft.
At the same time as Shangluo, she also finished her supper.
"By the way, aren't you full? I saw you were full when you took the photos."
"It seemed like I could still eat some after it was digested, so I cut a small half into it for a snack."
"." Shangluo looked at her, "You seem to be able to eat better than you look."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"It's a good thing! A great thing. It's hopeless if you have too little food and too much work. You have to do so much work, so it would be better if you eat more."
"By the way, how are things going with you over there?"
Shangluo reached into his bag and took out three snake pills the size of billiard balls and the weight of billiard balls. The snake pill made a "dong" sound when it was placed on the table.
"This is?"
"Foundation Pill."
"Oh, it turns out to be the Foundation Establishment Pill. Wait! What is this???" She immediately became furious.
"The Foundation Establishment Pill."
"Did you take out a bunch of Foundation Establishment Pills at once? Isn't it true that only one Foundation Establishment Pill can be built in a generation? Why did you take out so many at once?"
"I'm Xiangrui. It's normal for Xiangrui to take out three at once."
"Ah, this. Then it's not strange. It's not strange."
She looked at the three Foundation Establishment Pills and said, "By the way, can you handle it with full authority?"
"Of course. Because this is my thing originally, and I invited those people to go to the town. Besides, although this thing is precious, it can be said to be a priceless treasure, but they also trust me and feel that they can leave it to me. There is no need to interfere.”
"..." Phaethon was silent for a while, "Maybe this is the difference between you and me. Although Victoria has a good relationship with me, she will not let me decide such an important matter."
"That's nonsense. You're so easy to get ahead of me. Even I can't trust you. And my judgment is time-tested. In this regard, you're still 7,749 times behind me in a 360-degree backflip in the ice and snow."
"Although I don't know what this metaphor means, I probably understand it. So, ah! Your Excellency Shishijun, what do you plan to do with these treasures."
"I'll make a call first." He dialed Guo Xing's number, which Guo Xing had given him before.
One minute later.
"Wait! Wait! Wait for me for half an hour!"
"Is it okay to give it to your assistant?"
"Assistant? I will come to your door with a big red candle and kowtow in three steps! This is the Foundation Building Pill! If it hadn't been already midnight, I would have set off 2 million firecrackers. Even though it was already dark, I still had to set off 1 million firecrackers. ring."
"No, no, no! If you don't know, I'd think you were going to meet the bride."
"Welcoming the bride? You are closer than my real brother now! You are younger than me, so I kowtow and call you eldest brother on the spot. No, no, no - I will marry you for my father! You are my eldest brother! This is the Foundation Establishment Pill. Ah! There is no way to thank you too much in terms of etiquette."
"No, no, no, no no, no no, no no, no no, no no." Shang Luo shook his head straight. "I didn't take Tantan and Guo's surname for you because of love. Do you remember what we said at the beginning?"
"You said you want to test the medicine? But there is no need to test the medicine. My uncle told me that this is the foundation-building pill certified by Sazu himself. Do you still need me to try it?"
"I agreed before that I'll give you one no matter what. Now even if I don't need to try it, I won't change my mind. I'll give you one if I say I'll give you one. Think about it on your way here. There are three flavors. Bai The blue one, the yellow one, it depends on which one you want to eat. I’ll hang up first, and I have to contact others.”
"Good guy." Phaethon called him directly, "That guy has the surname of Guo, right? That's the commander-in-chief of Lanfang. Why don't you recognize him when he wants to make you his master?"
"Look at it, look at it, that's why you still have so much to learn. If he really wants to be with me, I might just accept him, and even my friends won't. He wants to recognize me as his uncle all of a sudden? I don't. Such an old nephew. Can I give him some lucky money during the Chinese New Year? Although this is a great kindness, and indeed no courtesy is too much. But I will not accept indecent gifts, because indecent gifts have to be repaid. We will pay back the indecent gifts in the future. We have been friends for a long time, and he is like an old man, so we don’t want to be friends anymore.”
"That makes sense!" Phaethon applauded, "Why didn't I learn it?"
"And I don't give it to him for free. First of all, he is the sponsor of the Lei Department. If you give him one, he will continue to give back to us and help us deal with many chores. Furthermore, I also need him to advertise. This is a celebrity Effect, please don’t even invite advertisements.”
"Advertising? What are you advertising for?"
"Wait a minute, I have to make another call to confirm." He dialed the phone:
"Hello, senior brother?"
"alright?"
"Well, that's it."
"Wait a minute." He took a sip of water as he was eating. You can hear him putting down his chopsticks over there, and you can also hear him changing rooms:
"How's it going? How's the situation? I generally listened to what General Fu said, but I still have to listen to what you have to say. Did you get the Foundation Establishment Pill safely?"
"Yes. There is still some follow-up work to be done, and we have to maintain surveillance and management. But now there is the issue of handling the Foundation Establishment Pill - Senior Brother, do you want one?"
"Ah, you called to ask about this, right? Give me a moment and let me think about it."
Two minutes later.
"Hey, Shangluo, I thought about it carefully. I don't want it anymore - you can probably guess that I will choose this way, right?"
"Well, I'm going to call and ask anyway. Why don't you want to?"
"That's your thing. I have nothing to give you in return right now, so I won't take it. Moreover, I want to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill by myself. I am confident that I will be able to refine it. So, you can handle it yourself. , don’t think about me anymore.”
After a brief exchange of greetings, both parties hung up the phone.
"Okay." Shangluo clapped his hands, "Then there are two for control. I will keep one of them - although I won't use it for the time being, I still keep one as a backup, just in case of any trouble."
He glanced at Phaethon, and... He also looked at the ceiling.
You may encounter many things and meet many people in the future. It is necessary to keep a foundation-building pill as a backup. This thing can give people who would otherwise have reached their deadline a chance to do it again. But as a spare, one is enough.
"And the other one, hey hey hey~~something that I want to hear and see is about to come."
"What are you doing? What are you laughing at?"
"After letting Guo Xing advertise, this pill is of course: use it as a reward! Use it as a prize! The first season of the Gate of All Appearances is about to begin! Only heavy prizes can make all Qi practitioners participate. . This is the first and crucial step for Lei Bu to establish prestige in the world of cultivation. Through this step, Lei Bu and I, the Shishijun, will make a formal appearance. By the way, we will select a talent and add another High-end combat power comes in and helps me share some of the pressure. After this step, a virtuous cycle can begin, and the foundation of 'heaven leading the extraordinary world' can be planted. Good, good. It can be done with just a tangible object Lailuozi, with such great momentum, it is really a good deal, and it is a good time. If the timing were different, ten or eight Foundation Establishment Pills would not be able to obtain this kind of effect."
