I am evergreen in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 74 Problem Elixir
"Lu Changan, do you dare to say this?"

The girl in the yellow skirt has a pair of beautiful eyes with a cold light, and as a foundation cultivator, it brings invisible pressure.

"Senior is right."

Lu Changan breathed heavily, without arguing or refuting.

In fact, old and weak second-order spirit beasts have a limited lifespan and are of little value to the Zhou family.

If enough benefits are exchanged, more spirit beasts can be cultivated, or resources can be used to pile up new second-level spirit beasts, or even foundation-building monks.

Moreover, the annexation of the Maple Leaf Huang family to the Mu family is not in the interests of the Zhou family.

Lu Changan didn't argue, he didn't care about success or failure.

Zhou Qingxuan was surprised and inexplicably upset:

"Lu Chang'an, you overestimated your own status! Back then, a petty favor was not enough."

With her attitude just now, she actually wanted to manipulate Lu Changan and force the Mu family to pay a greater price.

"Senior Zhou, is this talisman enough?"

Lu Changan took out a talisman outlined by ice patterns.

"Second-rank low-grade talisman, Ice Roar."

Zhou Qingxuan took this talisman into his hand, took a deep look at Lu Changan, and finally nodded:

"enough."

A second-tier low-grade talisman is not very valuable to a foundation-building monk.

But the "Ice Roar" talisman was the advanced talisman that Zhou Qingxuan asked Lu Changan to refine the "Frost's Fall".

Lu Changan showed this talisman.

One is to show off one's own skills, the status is not so low, beyond the ordinary nine levels of Qi refining.

The second is to remind Zhou Qingxuan that the favor promised back then will not be devalued due to the change of status.

"Take this token. After the auction, let people from the Mu family come to me."

A blue light popped out from Zhou Qingxuan's jade finger.

A cyan jade pendant fell into Lu Changan's hands.

"Thank you Senior Zhou." Lu Changan cupped his hands in gratitude.

"Nothing else, you go."

Zhou Qingxuan was dull.

Just as Lu Changan was about to say goodbye, an idea flashed in his mind.

Zhou Qingxuan owed him a favor, and finally met and talked, this is a rare opportunity!
In Yushou Zhou's family, Zhou Qingxuan is by no means an ordinary foundation-building elder.

"Senior Zhou, my ground rock mouse has been stagnant at the peak of the first order for many years, can you sell me a second-order earth spirit pill?"

After Lu Changan said these words, he was mentally prepared to be thrown out.

"Lu Changan, your skin is unusually thick."

Zhou Qingxuan's complexion was slightly cold, her pretty eyes turned, and she looked at him in disbelief.

What happened just now, the favor has already been repaid, Lu Changan actually made an inch of it?
"Senior Zhou, don't blame me, I—"

Lu Changan apologized, and prepared to leave.

Zhou Qingxuan interrupted him:

"Second-rank low-grade earth spirit pills can promote the growth of second-rank earth-type monsters. It is helpful for first-rank peak earth-type monsters to be promoted to second-rank. Low-rank bloodlines increase the chance by half, middle-rank bloodlines increase the chance by [-]%, and high-rank bloodlines increase the chance by [-]%. One and a half."

"At the auction, I once sold [-] spirit stones. I'll give you the price of an acquaintance, [-] spirit stones."

She was very straightforward, and took out a brown medicine bottle.

"Thank you senior for your accomplishment."

Lu Changan was overjoyed, no wonder there is a saying: You can eat enough with a thick skin, but you can't eat with a thin skin.

He took out a bag of spirit stones and bought Zhou Qingxuan's earth spirit pills.

After completing the transaction.

Zhou Qingxuan looked impatient, waved her hands and said, "I don't want to see you again."

……

Walking out of Zhou Qingxuan's quiet courtyard, Lu Chang'an got his wish and was in a good mood.

This trip not only successfully set up a line for the Mu family, but also gave the rock mouse a chance to be promoted to the second level.

In fact, he had never thought of trying to advance for the rock mouse before, and he had a mentality of resignation.

Middle-grade bloodlines, high or low.

It's best to be promoted, and if you can't be promoted, you will fend for yourself.

It was a flash of inspiration just now, thinking to squeeze the favor owed by Zhou Qingxuan to the limit as much as possible.

Trying boldly, unexpectedly, Zhou Qingxuan agreed to sell the rare resources.

The second-tier low-grade earth spirit pill can be regarded as a weakened version of the foundation-building pill for monsters.

Except that the effect is worse than that of the foundation pill, the earth spirit pill is only helpful to the earth monsters, and has certain limitations.

Therefore, the price is much lower than that of Zhujidan.

……

Lu Changan went out of the Zhou family's resident mansion.

Passing through the outer courtyard, I suddenly felt someone's eyes watching me.

He looked back.

In the distance, a woman in her 50s and [-]s was sweeping the courtyard, avoiding his eyes.

The woman cultivated to the fifth level of Qi Refining and used a broom to sweep the floor instead of cleaning it with magic.

This is not surprising.

Many sects with deep foundations in cultivating immortals have various specialties, such as not being allowed to use spells to sweep the floor, so as not to fluctuate in mana and interfere with the meditation of the seniors.

Because the woman turned her head to avoid it.

He hastily caught a glimpse of the face of a half-aged woman with good foundation, and the melon-seeded face of her youth, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, could be vaguely seen.

Ok?
Lu Changan felt familiar, but he didn't remember where he saw it at the first time.

This is the territory of the Zhou family, so he didn't want to get to the bottom of it, so he quickly adjusted his appearance and body shape, and left the mansion.

"Lu Changan..."

The woman sweeping the floor stared blankly at the leaving figure, holding the broom tightly with both hands.

For decades, that person's face remained unchanged, indifferent and serene.

Her memory seemed to go back to Feiyue Mountain Villa decades ago, where she was matched by the eldest lady and talked with the boy with a foreign surname in the Weeping Willow Pavilion.

In the field of vision, Lu Changan's back completely disappeared.

The woman suddenly collapsed, crying and choking.

At that time, she seemed to be a beautiful woman, marrying the second son of the Zhou family, her status as a regular wife was considered high.

She considers it the greatest pride of her life.

However, it was only after she got married that she realized that she was not marrying the second son she thought.

But another hysterical second son!
After entering the bridal chamber, I can't help myself, I can only accept the reality.

The first few years of marriage were fine, the foundation-building monks of the Zhou family cast spells to stabilize her husband's hysteria.

As time went by, the husband became insane and became seriously ill, frequently torturing and beating others.

She gave birth to children in Zhou's family. She had a mission back then, and she was ashamed to return to the family, so she had to bear the burden of humiliation.

Avoiding her husband as much as possible is the greatest happiness.

Even if they come to the residence of Huanglong Immortal City to do some errands as domestic servants.

Her mourning and crying at this time was not because she hated Lu Changan, but because she made a wrong step back then, and it was hard to look back.

……

"It was her."

Lu Changan walked out of Zhou's residence, and suddenly remembered who the woman was.

He remembered: When Mu Yinglan went back to the family to visit relatives, she deliberately surrounded her yard in a circle, quite like a rich and noble lady.

Why did she become a sweeping woman from a noble lady, and what kind of life changes did she experience?
Lu Changan was not interested in exploring.

This is Mu Yinglan's own life choice, and the two are just acquaintances.

The other party deliberately avoided, obviously not wanting to face him today.

……

After half a day.

Lu Changan returned to his original appearance and returned to Shuiyue Residence.

In the room, he took out the second-order earth spirit pill from the brown porcelain bottle.

The dark yellow and round pills are as heavy as lead and mercury, with four stripes on the surface, which means that the medicinal pills are of the second-rank inferior grade.

"wrong!"

Lu Changan checked carefully, and the smile on his face froze.

After careful inspection, he found that the earth spirit pill contained abnormal medicinal properties, which could be regarded as a different type of erysipelas.

During the previous transaction, Zhou Qingxuan in the foundation building stage showed impatience.

He didn't look too closely, and he didn't dare to use his divine sense lightly in front of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

At that time, Lu Changan confirmed that it was a low-grade second-grade pill with four Dao lines, and it was not inferior.

From the performance point of view, it is the characteristic of Tulingwan.

"This little girl! A majestic foundation-builder, you actually tricked me for a period of Qi refining?"

Lu Changan was speechless.

No wonder Zhou Qingxuan gave such a "affordable" price. It turned out that it was an earth spirit pill with questionable medicinal properties, and it couldn't be sold at the normal price.
