The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 103: Settlement of Accounts after Autumn
Taking the flying boat, Zhang Jingyuan took Feng Xiangyun back to Yanyang City.

"Hey, you're going to let me live in a doghouse like this?"

Hearing Feng Xiangyun comment on his house like this, even after spending more than three hundred years together, he has already developed a considerable tolerance for his bad mouth. After hearing this, Zhang Jingyuan still felt like his veins were bulging, and he couldn't help but want to make Feng Xiangyun fat. The urge to beat him up.

"That's your kennel. Although my house is a bit worse, it's mainly because no one has lived in it for a long time and it's a bit shabby because no one has cleaned it. But compared to your kennel, it's not an exaggeration to say it's a golden den. You actually dislike me, bah, I shouldn’t have brought you to live here.”

Zhang Jingyuan cursed angrily.

Although his house is a bit rotten, but compared with who else, Feng Xiangyun lives in a slum house and can't even see his hand without lighting a candle in broad daylight. How can he say that his house is rotten?

The most important thing is that he obviously just cleaned it yesterday.

He had thought before that this house was empty anyway. With Zhang Meifeng's stubborn temperament, she would definitely not come back to take a look at this old house again, let alone live in it again, so she would simply let it go. Forget it if Feng Xiangyun lives here.

After all, it doesn't matter if they live in the same house as friends who have known each other for three hundred years in their previous life.

But looking at it now, Feng Xiangyun is not worthy!
"Since you don't like it, then just live in a pharmacy. There's a house there anyway."

After speaking, Zhang Jingyuan walked directly towards the pharmacy.

"It's just broken. I can't tell the truth."

Feng Xiangyun, who was following behind, said aggrievedly.

But to be honest, it's strange. Even if Zhang Jingyuan is only a teenager, why does he have the feeling that Zhang Jingyuan has known him for many years? Any little thought he has is immediately seen through by Zhang Jingyuan, and he has no face at all. Not even to him.

Now, he finally understood the weight of Zhang Jingyuan's words, 'I know you much more than you think'.

At this time, those wealthy businessmen would really not know what to think if they saw Master Feng acting like an angry little daughter-in-law.

When they arrived at the pharmacy, there was still a group of scumbags, sitting in an extremely neat row at the entrance of the hospital, staring directly at Ruan Baizhi, watching unscrupulously.

Anyway, this is the territory of the medical center, and they are not afraid of Ruan Baizhi rushing over and beating them.

During this period of time, they have figured out Ruan Baizhi's temper. They know that Ruan Baizhi's vicious side is only aimed at them, but she is still very good to others, especially to neighbors like the hospital, who are even more polite. Tolerance.

Furthermore, there is a medical center behind them, so are they afraid that Ruan Baizhi will beat them to death?

Even if they were beaten to death, sixteen years later, they are still good men!

However, when they saw Zhang Jingyuan coming from a distance, and there was someone behind him who was a late-stage Qi Refining monk, all the heroes suddenly shrank their necks and fell silent. They all behaved like frightened quails.

As for anyone who dared to rush up, provoke Zhang Jingyuan and show off his bravery, there was no one.

After yesterday's inquiries, they already knew that Zhang Jingyuan was Ruan Baizhi's classmate, also a Silinggen, and the current owner of the drugstore.

Are you kidding? They are just mortals. How dare they find trouble with a Four Spiritual Roots monk?
Isn’t this how you seek death?

What's more, Zhang Jingyuan is now the owner of the drugstore. Even if it is just rented, the annual rent is only two spiritual stones, but for them, these two spiritual stones are already an astronomical sum.

Regardless of the fact that there are so many people present, just work together, if you can collect a hundred spirit coins, which is 0.01 spirit stones, it will be considered a great thing.

With all these people together, they don't even have one hundred spirit coins. They are a bunch of poor ghosts. How dare they go to trouble a rich and powerful four-spirit-rooted monk like Zhang Jingyuan.

Zhang Jingyuan would be merciful if he didn't blow them away.

They just relied on the fact that Ruan Baizhi was a soft woman and had not yet joined the sect or Taoist school, so they dared to come over and see if there was any chance of the toad eating the swan meat.

If Ruan Baizhi succeeds in becoming a disciple next year, they will not just sit here, but will hide away when they see Ruan Baizhi.

In the world of cultivation, the gap between mortals and monks with four spiritual roots and above is not nonsense, it is like a natural chasm.

Not to mention, this time Zhang Jingyuan was followed by a late-stage Qi Refining monk.

Under such circumstances, if they provoke Zhang Jingyuan again, are they afraid that they will not die quickly enough?
"Classmate Ruan, come here, let me introduce you. This is Feng Xiangyun, and he will be the alchemist in our store from now on."

Zhang Jingyuan pointed at Feng Xiangyun and said.

Hearing this, Ruan Baizhi looked Feng Xiangyun up and down, and a look of doubt flashed through his eyes. The slightly slovenly, disheveled middle-aged man in front of him was actually an alchemist. Zhang Jingyuan wouldn't be deceived, right?

To be honest, Feng Xiangyun's image is far different from that of the alchemist with a graceful head, a handsome face, a face like a crown jade, and a majestic appearance.

"I've met Master Feng."

However, thinking this way, Ruan Baizhi still nodded and bowed.

"Ah."

Feng Xiangyun turned his nostrils upward and snorted softly, which was considered a response.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingyuan immediately smiled. Feng Xiangyun, a weakling, still looks very good in front of others.

"From now on, Feng Xiangyun will be responsible for refining the elixirs in the store and issuing ordinary prescriptions. Is this okay with you?"

Zhang Jingyuan turned to look at Feng Xiangyun and asked.

"Yes..." Feng Xiangyun wanted to refuse, but after taking a look at Zhang Jingyuan's eyes, he was like a beaten eggplant, and said dejectedly: "No problem."

He, a great disciple of Feixing Pavilion's elixir lineage and the future lineage master, was actually reduced to prescribing ordinary medicines to treat common people's illnesses. Is this a loss of morals or a distortion of human nature?

"Classmate Ruan, you will be responsible for the counter and overall management of the entire pharmacy. If you have nothing to do, you will help Feng Xiangyun and learn some simple alchemy knowledge."

Zhang Jingyuan said to Ruan Baizhi.

"Ah, doesn't that mean that I have become the shopkeeper? Let Master Feng take over the post of shopkeeper."

Ruan Baizhi couldn't help but asked in surprise.

"Well, that's right. You're the one selling the medicine, you're the one doing the odd jobs, and you're the shopkeeper. It can be said that except for refining elixirs and prescribing medicines, everything else is yours. Otherwise, even if it were left to Feng Xiangyun, he wouldn't do it. of."

Speaking, Zhang Jingyuan glanced at Feng Xiangyun.

Feng Xiangyun nodded with satisfaction. Zhang Jingyuan's words really touched his heart.

After all, he is a rising star in the sea of ​​​​clouds, and he is a rising star in alchemy. Now he comes to Zhang Jingyuan to make alchemy and write prescriptions. He can no longer give in. How can he still do such a fussy and copper-smelling job as the shopkeeper? thing.

He suddenly felt that it was not a bad thing that Zhang Jingyuan knew him too well.

As for the matter of just now relying on buying golden guns to make a living and begging for money, Master Feng has completely forgotten about it and will never mention it.

"In that case, I will shoulder the responsibility, but if I don't do a good job, please don't blame me, Mr. Zhang."

Seeing Zhang Jingyuan and Feng Xiangyun's attitude, Ruan Baizhi could only agree.

However, she also has her own little plan in mind. If she is the shopkeeper, does it mean that she can more easily obtain some alchemy knowledge from Master Feng.

Of course, the premise is that Master Feng is not a liar.

As soon as the idea came to mind, Ruan Baizhi said: "Does our pharmacy need to change its name? Or hold a new opening ceremony or something?"

Zhang Jingyuan glanced at Ruan Baizhi approvingly. Ruan Baizhi entered the role of shopkeeper very quickly.

"There is no need for an opening ceremony. The pharmacy is not big. Now we are doing business with regular customers. No matter how much we promote it, no one will travel several miles to come to our pharmacy to buy medicine. As for changing the name?"

Zhang Jingyuan's mind turned around and he said subconsciously: "Qingtian Pharmacy?"

But he soon rejected the name himself.

"Forget it, this name is too big. A small pharmacy can't afford it, and it doesn't fit in. Let's just call it the original name, Deji Hall."

Qingtian was the name of a super large group in his last life. Its industries were spread all over the world and it was the absolute number one in many industries, so he subconsciously called it out. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jingyuan took out all the hundreds of Huang-level low-grade elixirs from the storage bag.

In the storage bag that was originally densely packed with medicinal aroma, there were only about ten middle-grade and high-grade elixirs left.

He was not afraid that Feng Xiangyun would steal his elixir, but he just said that people like these in Yanyang City could afford it. One spiritual stone and one spiritual stone for the Soul-Enriching Pill and the Body-Strengthening Pill were pretty good, middle-grade and Even if the elixir is refined from the top-grade elixir, it is still a waste.

It's better to wait until he needs it and then refine it into a pill.

"So many elixirs!"

Looking at the elixirs that were densely packed in front of her, covering the entire table, Ruan Baizhi couldn't help but exclaimed.

Even Feng Xiangyun next to him couldn't maintain his proper posture and calmness as a master, and glanced at Zhang Jingyuan several times.

Zhang Jingyuan robbed some sect's medicine field, right?

Otherwise, why would he come up with so many elixirs at once? Anyway, if Zhang Jingyuan said that he picked them from Canglang Yaoshan, he wouldn't believe a word.

However, regardless of where Zhang Jingyuan obtained these elixirs, his confidence in Zhang Jingyuan's revenge for him suddenly increased a lot.

After all, the more unexpected and shocking Zhang Jingyuan is, the more likely it is that Zhang Jingyuan will avenge himself.

"It's okay. If it weren't for the need to deal with these elixirs, I wouldn't rent this medicine shop." Zhang Jingyuan said calmly.

"If there is an alchemist, it would be better to make so many elixirs into elixirs yourself and then sell them. After all, if you buy medicine from the Yamen or Liuyun Sect's pharmacy, the price of one elixir will be nearly One spiritual stone can only make a profit of forty or fifty spiritual coins, and if you sell the spiritual medicine to them, you won’t be able to sell even three spiritual stones for one spiritual medicine.”

"And you have to know that such a magical elixir can be refined into a bottle of ten elixirs. If you do the opposite, you can make at least five or six spiritual stones in profit."

"But we still need to remove the cost of hiring an alchemist."

Speaking of this, Ruan Baizhi glanced at Feng Xiangyun subconsciously.

"It's okay. Master Feng doesn't need a salary, or in other words, a fixed salary. He needs money. He can just get it from you. He can't spend much money anyway."

Zhang Jingyuan waved his hand and said casually.

After hearing this, Ruan Baizhi glanced at Feng Xiangyun with a strange expression and thought: "Master Feng, if you have any leverage in Zhang Jingyuan's hands, just blink."

To be honest, she was surprised that Zhang Jingyuan could find an alchemist. She was afraid that Zhang Jingyuan was deceived. How could she have imagined that the alchemist Zhang Jingyuan found would be free of money.

In her impression, most alchemists should be the kind of people who are aloof and hold up, invite, and offer a bunch of spiritual stones just to ask the alchemist to take action once, but the alchemist still looks disdainful and reluctant.

But when he arrived at Feng Xiangyun's place, he almost became a beggar who could be dismissed with just two spiritual coins.

After all, Zhang Jingyuan's words basically foreshadowed that Feng Xiangyun would get almost no money from her.

Suddenly, Ruan Baizhi had some doubts about her ambition to become an alchemist.

If alchemists were like Feng Xiangyun, it would be better for her not to become an alchemist.

As for Feng Xiangyun, the white eyes in his eyes have already rolled to the sky. Looking at what Zhang Jingyuan said, are these words that a human can say?
He even suspected that Zhang Jingyuan had ice spirit roots, otherwise how could his blood-hot mouth speak such cold and bone-chilling words.

It’s true that he doesn’t spend much money. The reason why he gets the golden gun but not falling pills is just to earn some spiritual coins to cover some of his simple daily expenses. When the money is spent, he will get a few more golden guns not falling pills. .

Sometimes if I'm lazy, I may not be able to produce a few bottles in half a month.

But Zhang Jingyuan can't bully him like this.

But after humming a few words, Feng Xiangyun didn't say anything in the end, and could only comfort himself in his heart. At least Zhang Jingyuan didn't plan to completely stop spending money on himself, and he didn't even limit how much money he would spend.

The only problem is that he needs to reach out a few more times.

Forget it, a man can bend and stretch, but in order to take revenge, he endured it.

"I've said what needs to be said. You can handle these elixirs yourself, Old Feng. I'm leaving. If nothing else happens, I'll come here probably every half month. If there's anything urgent, Ruan Classmate, you can also go to my house to find me."

After saying this, Zhang Jingyuan walked straight away.

For someone like Feng Xiangyun, who has been in the alchemy furnace since he was born, refining this low-grade yellow elixir couldn't be easier. He can do it with his eyes closed, and he doesn't need to worry at all.

Back home, Zhang Jingyuan opened various formations as usual and placed the spirit stones on the already existing spirit gathering formation in the training room.

Look, this is the treatment of a mansion. You don't have to do it yourself. When the spirit gathering array is being built, the array master will carve it for you, and even the spiritual vein channels will be opened directly.

What Zhang Jingyuan needs to do is to make slight changes to the spirit gathering array based on his own experience and knowledge to make it more efficient.

After preparing everything, sitting in the center of the spirit gathering array, Zhang Jingyuan opened the spiritual vein channel, and a breath of spiritual energy came to his face. Although it was not very strong, it also refreshed people's spirits, and even the spiritual energy in his body was refreshed. The power has become much more lively.

"It's a pity that the spiritual veins under Yanyang City are only branches of the Xuan-level spiritual veins under Canglang Demon Mountain. They are the lowest yellow-level low-grade. Even if the spiritual vein channel is opened to the maximum, its effect will be very little. It would be pretty good to have spiritual power equivalent to three spiritual stones in one year."

Seeing the faint spiritual energy floating out from the spiritual vein channel in front of him, Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but sigh.

As the cornerstone of the world of cultivation, spiritual energy is the fuel for the improvement of the strength of all living beings, including cultivators, and its importance is unquestionable.

Fortunately, as long as there is life and air, there is aura, it just varies in quantity.

The places where the spiritual energy is the strongest form spiritual veins. Almost all the spiritual stones circulating in the world of cultivation are mined from the spiritual stone mines in the spiritual veins.

However, what is very strange is that as long as you continue to fish in the lake and mine it arbitrarily, the spiritual stones in the spiritual veins are almost inexhaustible. The spiritual veins will automatically absorb the spiritual energy in the ground and condense it into spiritual stones.

Zhang Jingyuan once stayed in a spiritual vein for several months. He saw with his own eyes that the spiritual stones grew from small to large, and became more and more bit by bit, just like the growth of all things.

When it grows to about the same size, someone will come over to mine it and make it into standard spirit stones. As for the leftovers, they will be turned into spirit coins.

As for what counts as fishing from the lake and exploiting wantonly, the world of cultivation has its own set of standards for evaluation.

First of all, these spiritual veins are divided into four levels: heaven, earth, black and yellow, and three levels: upper, middle and lower.

The number of spiritual stones that can be mined every year is different for each level, or even each grade of spiritual vein.

Like the worst spiritual vein under Yanyang City, the number of spiritual stones that can be generated every year is basically a thousand.

As for the spiritual energy in the spiritual vein channel, it is more like the growth of spiritual stones. If the remnants cannot be used, even if they are not absorbed, they will dissipate between heaven and earth, or soak into the ground again.

Therefore, the number of spiritual energy channels that can be opened in a city, and the spiritual energy that can escape from the spiritual energy channels, are determined by the level of spiritual veins underground in the city.

For example, the Xuan-level spiritual veins under Canglang Demon Mountain are at least ten to a hundred times larger than the spiritual veins of Yanyang City.

Therefore, it is no wonder that Mr. An Qing and even the entire people of Yunhua Star have been eyeing Canglang Yaoshan.

As for how the spiritual veins were formed, even Zhang Jingyuan, an old monster who has lived for half an era, does not know, but a more reliable rumor is that the spiritual veins are formed from the fragments of the corpses of gods and demons.

It is said that countless epochs ago, gods and demons really existed. Those gods and demons had great power to create the world. But the so-called demons now are just hybrids who have a trace of the blood of the demon gods and then pretend to be demons.

It is precisely because of the importance of spiritual veins that it can be said that various planets with spiritual veins are the objects of competition for the human race, demon race, ghost race, monster race and many other races.

Nearly half of the various wars in the world of cultivation revolve around spiritual veins, which shows the importance of spiritual veins.

After getting rid of these messy thoughts, Zhang Jingyuan prepared to practice in seclusion.

However, before practicing, he still had something to solve.

As soon as he had an idea, he summoned Master Ji Feng out.

Looking at Master Ji Feng, Zhang Jingyuan said calmly: "Master Ji Feng, when you killed Duan Bai and several people before, you did not work hard. Now it is time to settle the accounts."

Master Ji Feng thought that Zhang Jingyuan had other instructions, but he didn't expect this to happen. He was immediately dumbfounded. He was even asking Queen Qiu to settle accounts!
