Killing God

Shen Shi stopped Zhong Qinglu in desperation, but after being asked "what's the matter" by her, he didn't know what to say for a while, so he stood there and hesitated for a while, before saying: "Your alchemy furnace can be refined at one time. How many qi nourishing pills are there?"

Zhong Qinglu was also stunned for a while, obviously did not expect Shen Shi to ask such a nonsensical question, subconsciously said: "The pill furnace is the smallest, and it can only refine five pills at a time..." Zhong Qinglu said halfway. It was only then that he suddenly realized that he was telling him what to do, with a somewhat impatient expression on his face, and he turned to leave. .

Shen Shi suddenly called out behind her, and said, "I'll give you the spirit crystal, and you help me make alchemy, okay?"

Zhong Qinglu's footsteps faltered, she turned her head to look at Shen Shi, with a trace of surprise on her face, she said in amazement, "What did you say?"

Shen Shi felt a little embarrassed, scratched his head, but still whispered: "I mean, I'll buy you enough spirit crystals to refine Qi-nourishing pill spirit materials, you go to refine alchemy, and the refined medicine... Let's share it equally, okay?"

Zhong Qinglu didn't speak for a while, just stared at him, which made Shen Shi feel a little weak inexplicably, after a while, Zhong Qinglu suddenly sneered, with a bit of disdain, and said: "You think you can give me some money?" Lingjing, am I going to smile at you? Stop dreaming!"

Shen Shi was dumbfounded, looking at Zhong Qinglu speechless for a while, while the girl's face was frosty, she turned around and left, and at the same time said coldly, "If you are still struggling with what happened last night, forget about it early , anyway, you can't afford to pay for those things, and I don't bother to argue with you."

Under the moonlight, Zhong Qinglu strode on the beach, looking at her back with a bit of elegance, she really had a bit of aristocratic demeanor, she looked like people from two worlds with the ordinary brat behind her, but she was silent. Shi obviously didn't think so. After Zhong Qinglu took a few steps, he suddenly heard Shen Shi behind him shouting: "Your method of refining alchemy is doomed to no future!"

Zhong Qinglu paused, turned around abruptly, and said angrily, "What did you say?"

Shen Shi met her annoyed eyes, but he didn't show any fear. He stood there silently for a moment, and said, "I have inquired about the price of Qi Yang Pills in Herring Market, and went to the shop to see several kinds of Qi Yang Pills. The price of the spirit material of Dan, and finally I heard some of your practice of alchemy from Sun You, so..."

Zhong Qinglu laughed back angrily, and said: "So you said that I have no future in alchemy. Among the new disciples of this generation, I am the only one who has refined Qi Yang Dan for the first time. Even the senior brothers of the alchemy hall value me very much. How dare you say that about me? Okay, okay, I want to hear what you have to say, if you can't say a rule, see if I will let you go!"

After all, she stepped back a few steps, but stood in front of Shen Shi, staring at him fiercely, looking at Shen Shi as if she was going to get mad if he couldn't give a good reason.

Shen Shi gave a dry laugh, and rubbed the center of his brows in distress. After pondering for a moment, under Zhong Qinglu's angry eyes, he suddenly asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the situation in front of him, and said, "Do you know, Lingxiao Zongdan How many high-grade alchemists are there in the hall?"

Zhong Qinglu was stunned, and immediately wanted to get angry, but then saw Shen Shi's calm and bright eyes, as if he couldn't explain the deep meaning, he hesitated for a while, thinking to let you pretend for a while, so coldly Authentic: "It goes without saying that everyone in the sect knows that there are three top-grade alchemists in the alchemy hall, namely Elder Yun Niyun, Elder Xia and Elder Wen."

After three years in the Lingxiao Sect, even though they almost all practiced on Herring Island during this time, they still knew a lot about the situation in the Lingxiao Sect, so Zhong Qinglu didn't hesitate to answer for a moment.

Shen Shi nodded, and asked again: "Then do you know when the three of them achieved the title of top-rank alchemist?"

Zhong Qinglu was startled, but was speechless for a moment.As the name suggests, an alchemist is of course a compliment to monks who have made achievements in alchemy. Generally speaking, an alchemist who can produce first-grade, middle-grade, and top-grade elixirs will also be regarded as having achieved corresponding achievements Praise.Among the three, there is no doubt that the top-rank alchemist is the most noble. You must know that all the elixirs that can be called top-rank are rare and incomparably treasures like elixir, not to mention the cost of spiritual materials that are extremely valuable. The technique is even more complicated and difficult, and sometimes even requires extremely high Taoism as the basis for alchemy, so to become a top-grade alchemist, talent, Taoism, financial resources and even opportunities, all of which can be achieved without top-notch.

That is to say, Ling Xiaozong, a famous sect standing at the pinnacle of Hongmeng cultivation world, can have three top-grade alchemists in the sect so luxuriously. If it is replaced by other small sects, let alone top-grade alchemists, they are middle-grade, even Even if he is a beginner alchemist, he must be enshrined by the whole sect.

Zhong Qinglu on the other side couldn't answer for a while, but Shen Shi had already picked it up, saying: "Elder Xia and Elder Wen, they reached the realm of top-grade alchemy masters only 30 years after they broke through to the Yuandan realm. Elder Yun Ni, known as the No. 500 alchemy talent in the past 1 years of his sect, was also at the peak of the Divine Artistic Realm, only one step away from the Yuan Dan Realm, and only refined the first top-grade pill. He is already a rare genius in the world.”

Zhong Qinglu frowned, her expression softened unconsciously, but she looked a bit suspicious, glanced at Shen Shi, and said, "How do you know this?"

Shen Shi paused for a moment, and said: "I heard some senior brothers say it before, so I will remember it."

Zhong Qing pouted, obviously not convinced by this perfunctory answer, but Shen Shi quickly continued, saying: "Besides these three high-ranking elders, you also work in the alchemy hall on weekdays, so you should also Do you know how many people there are in the alchemy hall, and how many senior brothers and sisters among them can achieve the title of alchemist? And among these people who have achieved little success, how many years of hard work do they each spend?"

Hearing this, Zhong Qinglu seemed to have vaguely sensed the meaning of Shen Shi's words, but her temper was always persistent, so she snorted and said angrily: "Alchemy requires countless trials to achieve it. If not, do you think it’s Chinese cabbage, that anyone can cultivate successfully?”

Shen Shi smiled slightly, but took a step forward, looked at Zhong Qinglu, and said, "That's right, that's what you said about countless exercises. As far as I know, alchemy is the most arduous process. There are many restrictions at the time, no matter how talented a person is, or even a person who has already refined alchemy, there is a high probability of failure when refining alchemy again, because such things as heat, elixir, spiritual materials, etc., are different every time. Talent The extremely high ones become one three times, the average ones five times and seven times, and the ordinary ones ten times and twenty times are not uncommon, which one are you?"

A faint blush suddenly flashed across Zhong Qinglu's cheeks, and she snorted, but did not answer.

Shen Shi waited for a while, but seeing that Zhong Qinglu didn't intend to speak, he was also helpless, so he could only say: "I heard about the news that you first refined Qi Yang Pills three months ago, so far, you How many more furnaces have you refined, and how many times have you succeeded?" At this point, he paused, and then said after a while, "If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid you have more failed alchemy attempts than successful ones. , is it because of this that you were so angry last night that you couldn't help but yell at me even in full view?"

Zhong Qinglu lowered her head slightly, but then her expression changed, she suddenly raised her head, and said angrily, "Nonsense, what are you swearing at in front of everyone, do you think I'm a shrew?"

Shen Shi quickly waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about these things, tell me first, am I right? With our situation of being trapped on Herring Island without external help, and the consumption of alchemy, even if you are in the alchemy hall There are expensive mission rewards, but I did the math, and this spirit crystal will definitely not be able to keep up."

Zhong Qinglu was silent for a moment, and before she knew it, she found that although she still spoke harshly to Shen Shi from time to time, her momentum seemed to have been slowly lowered by Shen Shi's words. Although she had never said many things to outsiders, but before her eyes This person seems to have guessed his current predicament just by guessing.

Looking at Zhong Qinglu's expression, Shen Shi nodded, roughly confirming his conjecture, but he was not in a happy mood, and wanted to say something comforting, but he didn't know what to say.

On the beach, there was a moment of silence between the two of them, but after a while, it was Zhong Qinglu who broke the silence first, and said, "Is it true what you said earlier about making alchemy for me with spirit crystals?"

Shen Shi raised his brows, and when he looked at Zhong Qinglu again, he found that the girl's face was a little more serious. Obviously, although she usually has a bad temper, she was still able to calm down when faced with this important matter related to her own cultivation. .As for Shen Shi's previous proposal, although it seemed fair that the two of them would share the elixir equally, neither of them was a fool. Zhong Qinglu took advantage of it.

The most important point is that Zhong Qinglu's alchemy is not guaranteed to be successful, on the contrary, she even has a high probability of failure, even though she has successfully refined the first batch of Qi Yang pills three months ago.In alchemy, one has to go through a lot of trials and tribulations, and it takes countless failures to pile up the perfect alchemy.

The alchemy was divided equally between the two, and if the alchemy failed, the money would be lost, but after all, Zhong Qinglu herself got a precious opportunity to practice, which can be said to be a hundred miles away without any harm, but for Shen Shi, what good is this deal?

Zhong Qinglu thought for a long time, but she couldn't understand the joint, but she never believed that the person in front of her would be a fool, just because of his careful deliberation in guessing her situation just now based on a few clues, even if Zhong Qinglu refused to admit it , but I also think that this guy is just afraid that he is smarter than ordinary people.

Under the moonlight, the two of them didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little silent suddenly. Shen Shi seemed to be thinking about what to say to Zhong Qinglu, but Zhong Qinglu kept staring at him, and after a while, said:

"Speaking of which, what exactly is your intention?"
