Shen Shi is so worried that he stops Zhong Qinglu, but after she asks her "what's going on", she doesn't know what to say for a moment. She stands there and hesitates for a while, then she says, "How many pills can you make from your Dan furnace at a time?"
Zhong Qinglu also froze for a moment. Apparently, she didn't expect Shen Shi to ask such a thoughtless question. She subconsciously said, "That stove is the smallest, and it can only be refined five pieces at a time..." Halfway through, Zhong Qinglu suddenly realized what she was saying to him. Her face was a little impatient again, and she turned to leave
Shen Shi suddenly called behind her and said, "I'll give you Lingjing, and you can help me make pills, OK?"
Zhong Qinglu stagnates, turns her head to look at Shen Shi, and looks surprised. "What are you talking about?"
Shen Shi felt embarrassed and scratched his head, but he said in a low voice: "I mean, I can buy you enough Holy Crystal to refine the spirit material of the Qi nourishing pill. You can refine the pill and the pill... Let's share it equally, OK?"
Zhong Qinglu didn't speak any more for a while, but stared at him, which made Shen Shi feel a little vague. After a while, Zhong Qinglu suddenly sneered and said with some disdain, "Do you think I will smile at you if you give me some Lingjing? Don't dream!"
Shen Shi was as dumb as a chicken. He looked at Zhong Qinglu and couldn't speak for a moment. The girl turned around and walked away with a frosty face. At the same time, she said coldly, "If you are still struggling about last night, forget it as soon as possible. Anyway, you can't afford to pay for those things, and I'm too lazy to argue with you."
Under the moonlight, Zhong Qinglu strode on the beach, looking at her back with a bit of elegance, and it was indeed a bit like a noble family. It seemed that she and the ordinary boy behind her were like people from two worlds, but Shen Shi obviously didn't think so. After Zhong Qinglu walked out a few steps, suddenly she heard Shen Shi behind her suddenly shout, "Your method of alchemy is doomed to have no future!"
Zhong Qinglu suddenly turned around and said angrily, "What are you talking about?"
Shen Shi met her angry eyes, but he didn't show any fear. He stood there for a moment and said, "I inquired about the price of the pill on the herring market. I went to the shop to see the price of several kinds of spiritual materials for refining the pill. Finally, I heard from Sun You about your practice of alchemy in recent years, so..."
Zhong Qinglu smiled angrily and said: "So you said that I have no future in making pills. I am the only one of the new generation of disciples who has made the pill for nourishing qi for the first time. Even the senior brothers in the Pill Hall value me very much. How dare you say that about me? Well, I'd like to hear what you say. If I can't tell you a rule, I'll let you go!"
After saying that, she stepped back, but stood in front of Shen Shi and stared at him. She looked at Shen Shi as if she was going to lose her temper if she couldn't give him a good reason.
Shen Shi sneered, rubbed his eyebrows in some distress, and after pondering for a moment, in Zhong Qinglu's angry eyes, he suddenly asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the current situation, saying: "Do you know how many top quality alchemists there are in Lingxiao Sect's Dantang Hall?"
Zhong Qinglu was stunned, and then wanted to get angry. But then she saw Shen Shi's calm and bright eyes. It seemed that she could not understand the meaning of the Tao. She hesitated for a while, thinking that she would let you pretend for a while. Then she said coldly: "It goes without saying that everyone in the sect knows that there are three top quality alchemists in the Pill Hall, namely Elder Yun Niyun, Elder Xia and Elder Wen."
After three years of worship in Lingxiao Sect, even though they almost practiced on the Black Fish Island during this time, they still knew more about the situation in Lingxiao Sect, so Zhong Qinglu did not hesitate to answer.
Shen Shi nodded and asked again: "Do you know when the three of them became famous as the top quality alchemists?"
Zhong Qinglu was stunned, but could not speak for a moment. The alchemist, as the name implies, is of course the praise for the monks who have made great achievements in alchemy. Generally speaking, the alchemist who can produce the first, middle and top quality elixirs will also be regarded as the one who has achieved the corresponding achievements. Among the three, there is no doubt that the top quality alchemist is the most noble. You should know that all the miraculous pills that can be called top quality alchemists are rare treasures like magic pills. Besides, the value of the spent spiritual materials is huge, and the refining techniques are complicated and difficult. Sometimes, it even requires a high level of Taoist practice as the basis for alchemy. Therefore, to become a top quality alchemist, you need to be talented, Taoist, financial and even opportunistic.
This is a famous sect like Lingxiao Sect, which stands at the top of the Hongmeng cultivation world. Only when there are three top quality alchemists in the sect, can the whole sect worship them, let alone the top quality alchemists.
Here, Zhong Qinglu can't answer for a moment, but Shen Shi has already taken over, Said: "Elder Xia and Elder Wen reached the state of top quality alchemist 30 years after they had broken through the Yuan Dan state. Elder Yun Ni, who is known as the first person in our sect with talent for alchemy in 500 years, also forged the first top quality pill at the peak of the divine conception state, only a step away from the Yuan Dan state
Zhong Qinglu frowned, and her expression eased a little unconsciously, but she was a little suspicious. She looked at Shen Shi and said, "How do you know this?"
Shen Shi paused for a moment and said, "I've heard some elder martial brothers say before, and I remember them."
Zhong Qing opened his mouth and obviously didn't believe this perfunctory answer, but Shen Shi quickly went on, He said: "Apart from the three elders, you also work in the Pill Hall. You should also know how many people there are in the Hall, and how many senior brothers and sisters can achieve the title of alchemist? And how many years does it take for each of them to practice hard among these little achievers?"
When Zhong Qinglu heard this, she seemed to have a vague sense of Shen Shi's words, but she always had a persistent temper. She snorted and said angrily: "It takes a lot of practice to make pills. Talent, financial resources and morality are indispensable. Do you think they are cabbage, and anyone can cultivate successfully at will?"
Shen Shi smiled, but stepped forward and looked at Zhong Qinglu, Avenue: "Yes, that's what you said. As far as I know, alchemy is the hardest work. It not only costs a lot, but also has many limitations. No matter how talented people are, or even people who have already made pills, they have a high probability of failure when refining pills again, because each alchemy is different, such as heat, color, and spirit materials. Those with high talent become one three times, those with high talent become one five times seven times, and those with ordinary talent become one ten times It is not uncommon to become one for twenty times. What kind are you? "
Zhong Qinglu suddenly passed a faint blush on her cheek and snorted, but she did not answer.
Shen Shi waited for a long time, but he saw that Zhong Qinglu didn't mean to speak, and he was helpless. He only said, "I heard about the news that you first made the Qi nourishing pill three months ago. How many times have you made it?" At this point, he paused for a moment and then said, "If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid you have more failures than successes in alchemy. Is that why you were so angry last night? Even in the full view of the public, you can't help swearing?"
Zhong Qinglu lowered her head slightly, but then her face moved, she suddenly raised her head and said angrily: "Nonsense, what are you calling me a shrew?"
Shen Shi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Tell me first. Am I right? With our situation of being trapped on the Black Fish Island and no external help, plus the expense of refining pills, even if you have a great reward for your work in the Dan Hall, I have calculated that the Holy Crystal will never catch up."
Zhong Qinglu was silent for a moment. Unconsciously, she found that although she still spoke sternly to Shen Shi from time to time, her momentum seemed to have been lowered by Shen Shi's words. Although she had never told anyone about many things, the man at present seemed to have guessed his current predicament just by guessing.
Looking at Zhong Qinglu's expression, Shen Shi nodded, which roughly proved his guess, but he was not happy. He wanted to say something comforting, but he didn't know what to say.
On the beach, one of the two people was silent for a moment. After a while, Zhong Qinglu broke the silence first and said, "Is it true that you said to me to make pills with Lingjing?"
Shen Shi raises his eyebrows and looks at Zhong Qinglu again, but he finds that the girl's face is more serious. It is obvious that although she is usually bad tempered, she can still calm down when facing the important issue concerning her cultivation. As for Shen Shi's previous proposal, although it seems that they split the pills equally, it seems fair, but both of them are not fools. They both understand that Shen Shi suffered a big loss and there are great risks. Instead, Zhong Qinglu took advantage of it.
The most important thing is that Zhong Qinglu's alchemy is not necessarily successful. On the contrary, she even has a high probability of failure, even though she had successfully refined the first Qi nourishing pill three months ago. In the process of making pills, you have to go through a lot of trial and practice, and you can only make a perfect pill with countless failures.
The two people who make pills share equally. If they fail to make pills, they will lose their money. But Zhong Qinglu has a valuable opportunity to practice, which can be said to be a hundred miles without harm. But what good is this deal for Shen Shi?
Zhong Qinglu thought about it for a long time, but she didn't believe that the man in front of her would be a fool. She just guessed her situation based on a few clues. Even though Zhong Qinglu refused to admit it, she still thought that the guy was too smart.
Under the moonlight, the two men did not speak for a moment. The atmosphere seemed suddenly silent. Shen Shi seemed to be considering how to speak to Zhong Qinglu. Zhong Qinglu kept staring at him. After a moment, she said:
"After all, what do you mean?"
