Chapter 136: Expand your territory and call on your friends to join you!
"We'll take our leave now."
After getting the chickens and ducks, not long after, Lin Fan took Zhu Rourong away.
A little anxious.
Zhu Rourong was puzzled, but seeing Gao Guang, Qu Shifei and others looking eagerly forward to it, he guessed that there must be something hidden, so he kept it to himself.
It was not until he left the Beast Taming Sect that he could not help but ask, "Master, what are you doing?"
"You just took the things and left without even talking for a few more words. Is that inappropriate?"
"You don't understand."
"We have to leave, we have to leave quickly!" Lin Fan muttered, "If we don't leave quickly, I'm afraid they will regret it."
"Regret?"
Zhu Rourong was stunned, and then asked in surprise: "Those chickens and ducks?"
"Not really?"
"Even if they look good and sell well, this is Xianwu Continent after all, a place where you can become an immortal. What's wrong with the chickens and ducks looking good?"
"You don't know something."
Lin Fan said with a click of his tongue: "This is Eight Treasures Chicken and Eight Treasures Duck!"
"It is the second of the eight ancient treasures."
"They are all good things. Countless cultivators will never see even one in their entire lives. The reason is, first, they are rare. There can't be more than a hundred of them in the entire Xianwu Continent, right? Second, they taste excellent. They are rare delicacies and the top ingredients. It is said that they are extremely delicious."
“Whether you are an ordinary person or a top-level cultivator, you will regard it as a divine product. Once you take a bite, you will want to swallow your tongue.”
"And there's a third one!"
"Each of the eight ancient treasures has extremely amazing effects."
"Like Eight Treasure Chicken."
Lin Fan swallowed his saliva and said, "The Eight Treasures Chicken itself is delicious, but the eggs it lays have miraculous effects. One egg is equivalent to a top-quality spiritual medicine!"
"But the Bazhen chicken doesn't lay eggs very quickly. It only lays one egg every half a month."
"The eggs of the Eight Treasures Duck don't have any special effects, but the meat of the Eight Treasures Duck has extremely high medicinal value. When stewed or used to make pills with other spiritual medicines, it can greatly enhance the efficacy of the medicines. It is said that it can enhance the efficacy by up to ten times!"
“And they are equally scarce and lay eggs slowly.”
“It’s extremely difficult to cultivate.”
"There are not many of them in the entire Xianwu Continent, and their combat power may not be strong, but after being hunted madly for so many years, their escape methods have long been perfected and superb. They run very fast and are particularly difficult to catch."
"I can understand that." Zhu Rourong couldn't help but interrupt, "Those who run slowly are caught and eaten, while those who run fast can still survive."
"And their offspring, unless they can run just as fast, will also be eaten. Therefore, the survival of the fittest, natural selection, forced evolution..."
"Slowly, 'running fast' has become their 'innate magical power', right?"
“Uh…” Lin Fan scratched his head: “If you want to analyze it from a biological perspective, then maybe it is true, but this is the Xianwu Continent after all, not a place that talks entirely about science.”
“You can also understand it as…”
"That's how they are 'set up'."
"That's fine." Zhu Rourong rubbed his hands and said, "Then I'm curious, why doesn't anyone think of artificial breeding or raising them?"
"Since there is a place like the Beast Taming Sect that specializes in 'wholesale' spirit beasts, they should be able to find a way to catch a few and raise them artificially, right?"
“It’s not easy to raise.”
"Another reason is that this thing is meant to be eaten."
Lin Fan shook his head and explained, "They are difficult to raise. They run too fast. It is hard to catch one, let alone pair them up. Catch a whole group? That is unrealistic. In my opinion, even the Beast Taming Sect should only have three or two at most. I don't know how they can come up with so many."
"And these things don't have strong reproductive capacity, or they don't have a strong desire to reproduce."
"Besides, eggs are for eating, and duck meat is also for eating."
"Even if someone wants to try their best to cultivate and raise them, there are so many people in a sect, there will always be a 'big boss' who wants to seek benefits for his descendants or himself, right?"
"The eggs were eaten."
“The duck meat was also eaten…”
"Even if a few more big guys come and want to taste the chicken, can they still be trained after all these?"
"Of course, this is just what I know. Maybe there is some other reason, but..."
"You have to find the answer to this."
Lin Fan looked at Zhu Rourong, his eyebrows dancing with joy: "They are all really good things. We definitely can't eat them. We don't have the conditions to do so now."
What kind of level is this? Just slaughter the Eight Treasures Chicken and Eight Treasures Duck?
Emperor Huang Tian caught the Eight Treasures Chicken and raised it to eat its eggs.
“It will only work if the breeding has shown initial success and there is a certain amount of it.”
"Yes, I understand."
Zhu Rourong nodded, he understood it very well.
"They are all breeder chickens and ducks, of course they can't be eaten!"
"But I am really curious about how delicious this legendary ancient eight delicacies is. I don't believe it. Can this thing be as difficult as writing my master's thesis?"
"If there is, I will treat it as a doctoral topic. I don't believe that I can't chew these two bones."
Zhu Rourong's eyes lit up, and he said, "Sooner or later, we will have to eat meat."
"By the way, do you have the Eight Treasures Pig?"
"If there is, then I think I should be more comfortable with it."
"No."
Lin Fan spread his hands: "There is no such creature as pig among the eight ancient delicacies."
"Uh, that's a pity." Zhu Rourong sighed.
Lin Fan stroked his chin and said, "Now I am more curious about one question. Where did the Beast Taming Sect get so many Eight Treasure Chickens and Eight Treasure Ducks?"
"This is not 'cultivation' at all."
"Also, they can actually come up with a 20:80 ratio of males to females. Doesn't this mean they have at least a dozen or even more?!"
"this···"
"Not necessarily."
Zhu Rourong shook his head and said, "Master, you are not a biology major, so there are some things that you are not clear about."
"When it comes to pairing up with birds like chickens and ducks, there are usually more females than males. There may even be only one rooster in a group of chickens. If there are two, they are likely to fight."
"Unless there are enough hens~"
“So, they may not have a lot of them.”
“Also, there is another very interesting point.”
Speaking of his profession, Zhu Rourong is full of words: "If a group of hens gather together but there is no rooster to irrigate them for a long time, then they will become dissatisfied."
"Isn't this normal?" Lin Fan was curious: "What's the interesting point?"
"The interesting thing is that after their sexual desires are unsatisfied, it is very likely that one or two of these hens will begin to 'change sex'."
"ah?!"
Lin Fan was surprised: "Is it the gender change I thought of?"
"I'm serious."
Zhu Rourong said seriously: "It's that kind of gender change."
"It is very likely that one or two of them will gradually become roosters, grow a large comb, beautiful feathers, and even mature male reproductive glands, and have the ability to reproduce, and then live happily with the group of hens."
"So if they only have a group of hens and no roosters, as long as they feed them long enough, they can theoretically produce a few roosters."
"Uh, sure."
At the end, Zhu Rourong suddenly lost confidence: "All of my theories come from ordinary chickens on Earth. I can't guarantee the Eight Treasures Chicken."
“This is really interesting.”
Lin Fan said that he had learned a lot.
Can chickens change their sex automatically?
Bullshit!
"But it doesn't matter. We have roosters and hens anyway, so we don't need to worry about it."
"Take good care of it~"
"Whether we can eat eggs and duck meat every day depends on you!"
"Well, this... may be a little difficult."
"There are more and more people in our sect. If we want to eat eggs every day, this and this." Zhu Rourong wanted to do some calculations, but in the end, he just smiled and said, "I'll try my best."
"OK~"
While they were chatting, the Lan Yue Sect was already approaching.
At a glance, the surrounding mountains were already deserted and uninhabited.
"They've already moved~!"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "It's time for our Lanyue Sect to expand again."
"go!"
The man waved his hand and said proudly: "I will grant you ten mountains to use as breeding farms. You can choose any ten mountains you want, but it would be best if they are ten connected mountains."
"Ten mountains?"
"Thank you, Master!"
Zhu Rourong was overjoyed.
His dream has always been to make money, return to his hometown, rent a few mountains, engage in ecological breeding, and open a farm. He would be content every day and make money just by lying down.
As a result, he crossed halfway.
I thought I would never have the chance in this lifetime, but I never imagined that the realization of my dream is just around the corner~!
Moreover, it is countless times better than my previous dreams.
Ten sacred mountains!
You can cultivate immortality!
We raise monster pigs, eight-treasure chickens and eight-treasure ducks~!
Isn't this fun?!
In excitement, Zhu Rourong said: "Master, I want to do ecological farming."
"Ten mountains are more than enough."
"The benefits of ecological farming over captive farming are so many."
"I won't ask about this." Lin Fan waved his hand: "You are a professional, you can make the decision."
"Tell us what you need and what support you need."
"If you need people, we will provide them; if you need money, we will provide them; if you need materials, we will provide them. We will satisfy all those who can be satisfied."
“If you are not satisfied, create conditions to satisfy them.”
"I have only one condition."
“Let me see results within three years.”
“Do you have confidence?”
"have!!!"
Zhu Rourong responded loudly.
At this moment, he felt like he was being lied to.
But he ate this cake willingly.
The sect and the master have already come this far, what else do they need?
Others have maxed out their configuration, but if you still can't achieve any results, you'd better just go to bed as soon as possible.
"That's good."
Lin Fan waved towards the distance.
Fan Jianqiang flew over staggeringly.
"Master, Junior Brother."
这货摇摇晃晃，甚至还来了句：“哎呀，这些日子看守藏经阁，倒是有些疏于修炼了，以我目前这第二境第二重的修为，要飞这么高，还真有些危险。”
林凡：“···”
我特么信你个鬼。
他嘴角微微抽搐，直接忽视这个话题：“坚强啊。”
“从今往后，六宗的地盘，也都归咱们揽月宗了。”
“有这事儿？！”范坚强一惊：“我说呢，为何突然之间六宗一个人都没了，宝库也是被搬的一干二净，还以为···”
他突然捂嘴。
好家伙，险些说漏嘴了。
我不是一直都在藏经阁吗？！
哪里知道人家宝库的事儿？
不知道不知道，啥也不知道。
连忙改口道：“师尊你是怎么办到的？咱们揽月宗这是要起飞啊！”
装，你小子，继续装。
林凡呵呵一笑。
就是朱肉戎也发现自己这个二师兄不对劲。
有问题！
问题还很大！
“怎么办到的说来话长，总之，地盘归我们了，该怎么办，你心里有数就成。”
范坚强露出茫然脸：“啊？师尊你在说什么？”
“没什么。”
林凡翻着白眼：“现在就一个事儿，咱们的养殖场···嗯，叫灵兽园也行，即将开始试运行，我给老六批了十座灵山，待会儿让你跟他一起转转，选定哪十座山之后，你呢帮忙布置一些阵法。”
“材料从咱们宝库里拿，不够你再找我要。”
“就一个要求。”
“阵法得是双向的，防内也防外。”
“这个···”
范坚强知道自己跑不掉，倒也没推脱，只是道：“不知对内、对外分别要到哪种程度？”
“这个你来把握。”
“我只说一点，咱们试运行期间，便会放养十只八珍鸡、十只八珍鸭。”
“你看着来。”
“啥玩意儿？！”
范坚强顿时眼珠子一凸，嘴角流出不争气的泪水：“多少只？？？”
“合共二十只。”朱肉戎回应。
“我的妈呀！”
“一天一只都能吃二十天呐！”
“吸溜。”
“这是种鸡，虽然我也想吃。”林凡也是咽着口水，道：“但现在得忍，等老六培育成功了，那不就妥了么？”
“到时候每天吃一只！”
“有道理！”
范坚强擦去嘴角泪水，一把搂住朱肉戎：“老六，你可得好好加油，一定得人工养殖、繁育成功！”
“二师兄下半辈子的幸福生活可就指望着你了。”
“阵法的事儿包在我身上。”
“需要帮忙的，也尽管说，二师兄一定尽力！”
“吸溜。”
朱肉戎顿时大喜：“那可要多谢二师兄了。”
“不过二师兄，为何你如此激动？”
“听起来倒像是···”
“二师兄你之前吃过八珍鸡和八珍鸭一样？”
“那没有。”范坚强连忙摇头，矢口否认：“没吃过，我就一第二境小垃圾，哪里能吃到这种东西？”
“我是听说过它们的大名，嗯对，听说过而已。”
“···”
两人勾肩搭背的离去。
林凡见状，不由会心一笑。
这苟剩，指不定还真吃过！
“那口水流的都停不下来了，如果只是听说过，应当不至于如此才是。”
“不过，毕竟是苟剩，有自己的际遇也是正常。”
“最近几日虽然忙碌，却是收获满满，又是两件大事完成。”
“宗门扩张，养殖场的初始灵兽···嗯，就是不知那些幻影妖猪是否能成功怀孕，如果能怀上，那这事儿就堪称完美了。”
“接下来···”
“嗯，先把阵法改造一番。”
“然后重新规划宗内用地，毕竟这都有一百零八座灵山了，格局也得变一变。”
林凡当即召集五大长老开会。
当他们得知此事，尽皆喜不自胜。
“一百零八座？！”
“六宗竟然愿意将所有地盘都兑给咱们？”
苏星海喜出望外。
“好事，天大的好事啊！！！”
“一百零八座灵山，就是比之咱们揽月宗巅峰时期，也是超过百中之一了！”李长寿兴奋不已。
陈二柱哈哈大笑：“我说什么来着？我就说咱们宗主打小就聪明，人才、绝对的人才！结果如何？”
“濒死的揽月宗都能在宗主手中起死回生，且发展如此迅猛，我就是立刻暴毙，也是含笑九泉了。”
“四长老言重了，这才刚刚开始而已，咱们还要一起跟随揽月宗重回巅峰的，什么死不死的？”
“话说，四长老又突破了？”
“哎呀，侥幸，侥幸。”陈二柱有些尴尬的笑了笑：“那场大战受伤颇重，我靠着丹药恢复之后，其实也没怎么修炼。”
“但不知道怎么的，这修炼速度却好似自然而然便上去了。”
“原本晦涩不解之处，如今总感觉信手拈来。”
“好似福至心灵一般，感觉自己的天赋都像是在不知不觉中提升了不少。”
“咳，侥幸、巧合罢了。”
“侥幸？”
林凡深深看了他一眼，随即望向段青瑶、李长寿等人：“五长老、三长老、大长老，你们呢，是否有这种感觉？”
至于二长老，道伤过重，暂时提升无望。
“别说，还真有。”苏星海迟疑道：“我觉着也就是这几日，自己便要突破一个小境界了。”
“你们也？”李长寿错愕。
段青瑶红唇开合：“我以为只有自己，原来你们也是？”
陈二柱眉头拧起。
“不是巧合？”
“那···莫非是灵儿的丹药太过神奇？”
巫行云惊讶却冷静，道：“丹药只是辅助，且只是修行类丹药，又不能提升天赋，不至于如此逆天才是。”
“这其中···定有缘由！”
缘由么？
林凡双目微眯。
他倒是想到一种可能。
哪怕没吃过猪肉，也是见过猪跑。
主角模板、天命之人，哪一个不是气运滔天？
如今，揽月宗主角模板的弟子都有数位，所汇聚的气运，应该已经极为惊人了吧？
这气运，会为揽月宗带来危机，但只要能撑住危机，好处便会紧随其后显现！
如此庞大的气运加持，所带来的好处定然很是惊人。
或许如今他们的感受，只不过是气运带来的初步变化而已。
当然，这也只是猜测，没有证据。
因此，林凡只是道：“诸位长老不必担心，或许，只是机缘巧合，亦或是拼死一战之后的好处而已。”
“总之，这是好事。”
“接下来，咱们还是聊聊宗门格局、划分之事吧。”
“宗主您说。”
五位长老也弄不清楚缘由，只能暂且压制心中疑惑与震惊，听林凡吩咐。
“这样。”
林凡摸着下巴，沉思道：“咱们原本的二十五座灵山，除主峰之外，全都化为内门所有。”
“包括炼器阁、藏经阁、炼丹阁等等，都是内门产物。”
“剩下的八十三座灵山，其中十座，为养殖场，具体是哪十座，稍后你们与朱肉戎与范坚强对接就成。”
“这十座山你们不用动，除非朱肉戎有要求。”
“剩下的，都化为外门。”
“开垦灵田、种植灵药等等，这些事儿你们比我了解，所以交给你们来处理。”
“是。”
长老们应下。
二长老巫行云略微迟疑道：“宗主，外门地盘比内门还大上数倍，是否有些不妥？”
“不至于。”
林凡笑了笑。
“若是其他宗门这么干，的确会有些不妥，但咱们揽月宗内门到目前为止才多少人？”
“二十五座灵山已然是绰绰有余了。”
“相比之下，外门弟子数十倍于内门，多占些灵山也是合理，何况，外门还会置放诸多‘产业’与灵田等，反倒是更为合适。”
在林凡看来，这其实可以看做是农村与‘乡镇’。
外门是农村，内门则是乡镇。
农村耕田不够，如何供养乡镇？
至于说内门太小，逼格不够，他却并不在乎。
逼格不够才好~
毕竟，咱只是三流宗门。
没逼格，反倒让人挑不出毛病来。
“倒也是。”
巫行云不再反对。
林凡笑道：“那接下来一段时间便麻烦五位长老了。”
“哪里的话？”
大长老正色道：“此等忙碌，就是累死我等，也是心甘情愿啊。”
“没错！”段青瑶笑容灿烂。
“这事儿便交给我们这些老家伙吧。”李长寿也是笑道：“让我们去跟强者、大能拼命，那我们只能送人头。”
“但这些宗门管理、布局方面的事儿，却是很有经验，堪称信手拈来。”
“交予我们必然没错。”
“···”
他们离开，忙碌去了。
很快，消息传开。
揽月宗上下大吃一惊。
“宗门扩张？”
“嘶！！！”
“从二十五座灵山，一举扩张到一百零八座？”刘心月等刘家子弟眸子瞪的滚圆：“这也未免太惊人了些？”
“扩张速度如此之快？”
“这，这是将玉麟宫等六宗地盘一举收入囊中了啊！”
“揽月宗···”
刘心月轻声呢喃：“咱们宗门，只怕真的会发展成为难以想象的巨无霸呢，这是咱们的机缘，却也是属于咱们的挑战。”
“想要跟随宗门一同成长，想要在宗门之中拥有一定话语权，就得努力、得拼，得为宗门出力！”
“我···”
“已经做好准备了。”
“什么准备？”刘启不解。
“自然是与宗门共存亡的准备。”刘心月直言不讳：“我有一种直觉，如果我能跟随宗门一同成长，那么，我将获得在刘家时想都不敢想的成就。”
刘家众人：“···”
这话，未免太过了吧？
在大部分人看来，揽月宗虽然发展迅猛，但与刘家相比，却也还是与小卡拉米差不多。
可在刘心月心中，揽月宗却已有如此地位？！
······
外门弟子们更是兴奋无比。
“七十三座灵山，尽皆归我们外门所有？”
“嘶！”
“这地盘，瞬间扩大了数十倍啊！”
“天大的消息。”
“如此之大的地盘，能开垦多少灵田、种下多少灵药呀这？”
“我们也可分散许多，每个人都能吸纳更多天地元气，修行速度也会进一步提升吧？”
“太妙了！！！”
“···”
揽月宗上下，一片喜气洋洋。
与此同时，林凡却是寻到刚刚下班的‘连伯’。
“宗主？”
连伯当即露出笑容：“坐，喝茶。”
“这几日，我也正想去寻宗主呢。”
“北域那边，咱们锦衣卫发展很是不错，已经初见成效，一些原本无法探查的秘密，如今也能逐渐参与其中了。”
“不久之后，咱们的力量便会逐渐朝西南域这边渗透···”
他先是汇报锦衣卫的发展，最后又道：“只是，小王爷那边有所发现，最近外出，不曾坐镇锦衣卫总部。”
“根据最新情报来看，应当是在抢夺某种异宝。”
“哦？”
林凡眉头一挑。
秦雨抢夺异宝？
以他的模板来分析，该不会是~
“流星泪？”
林凡念叨着，倒是并不着急。
严格来说，秦雨是在其老家附近，就算有危机，秦王府的人也不会袖手旁观，倒是轮不到自己来着急。
何况，以他的模板，得到那个所谓的异宝，应该没毛病才是。
“就是不知道会不会冒出来个姜立。”
他暗暗嘀咕，嘴上道：“原来如此，秦雨那边，多加关注便好。”
“嗯。”
连伯笑道：“那边离王府不远，的确不用太过担心。”
“对了，宗主此来···”
“说来惭愧。”林凡端起灵茶一饮而尽：“好茶。”
“我此来，是有事相求。”
“诶~”
连伯脖子一梗，露出不乐意的神色：“宗主何出此言？”
“这些日子，我吃揽月宗、住揽月宗，揽月宗为了给我消遣、解闷，还给我机会让我上课、教导门内弟子。”
“我欠揽月宗的，数也数不清啊！”
“宗主有事，吩咐便是，哪里需要说什么相求？”
林凡：“···”
好家伙。
你说的我都快信了。
不知道的还真以为你欠了我们多少呢。
林凡一时间也是哭笑不得，好在都是千年的狐狸，这面上功夫很是过关。
“连伯您也是说笑了，今日来呢，的确是有事相求，揽月宗急速扩张，原本的护宗大阵，却是有些不够用了。”
“我决定在原本阵法不动、当做内门阵法的情况下，再布下一座大阵，将一百零八座灵山尽皆护在其中。”
“但我们揽月宗之内，缺少阵道高人。”
“唯有连伯你，乃是阵法大家，所以此事，还需要麻烦你才是。”
“布什么阵，由你来决定，所需材料，你告诉我便是，我想办法给你弄来。”
“就这？”
“好说，好说，分内之事！”
连伯心头暗喜。
我还以为有什么麻烦呢，原来就这？
有求于我？
让我做事？
让我做事好啊，我就怕你什么都不让我做，让我没办法刷‘功劳’啊！
“宗主放心，我会尽快拿出章程来，至于这区区布阵材料也算不得什么，老头子我别的不多，就是布阵材料多。”
“不妥！”
林凡摇头：“让你帮着布阵已是劳烦，如何还能让你···”
“诶~！宗主，一家人不说两家话！”
“揽月宗便是我第二个家！”
“我为自己的家出点力，怎么了？！”
“再则，揽月宗诸多弟子，也算是我半个徒弟，这样，这次布阵，我带上那些‘徒弟’，让他们一起出力。”
“可以熟悉阵道，巩固知识，对他们将来阵道修为大有裨益。”
不等林凡说话，连伯便是大手一挥：“此事就这么决定了，宗主无需多言。”
“更不用再劝，想都别想。”
“我意已决！”
他一脸决绝。
看的林凡一愣一愣的。
好家伙，我特么直呼好家伙。
你这也太给力了点吧？
不过···
我喜欢！
“咳，连伯您真是···让我都不知道该说些什么才好了。”
“那便麻烦您老费费心，待灵儿回来，我让她多替你炼几枚丹药，给您老补补身子~”
嘿？！
连伯双目暗暗放光。
上道！
瞧瞧人家，这多上道啊？
我老人家为的可不就是这个吗？
“咳！”
连伯板着脸，道：“宗主，您真是···您让我说您什么好呢？”
“都说了，这是我第二个家，我为自己家出点力怎么了？有什么费心、有什么辛苦的？还要炼制丹药，多麻烦啊？”
“下次可不能这样了啊！”
林凡：“···”
我特么直呼好家伙。
您这话，你自己信吗？
闲聊片刻，林凡离去。
但送走林凡之后的连伯却是没有第一时间前去布阵，而是陷入沉思。
“这次，倒是的确能立下一功，但这功劳说大不大，说小不小，着实算不得什么。”
“看似领先了金振他们几个老匹夫一步，实则，却是并非如此。”
“说到底，老夫不过是一人而已，但他们却是三人，且那赵铁柱无需多久便能突破，到那时，他们便是三个大能者。”
“纵然并非是要生死相搏，且他们自己也在竞争，可归根结底，他们终究是一伙儿的。”
“一对三，劣势在我，自己终究处于下风啊。”
连伯微微皱起眉头：“长此以往，只怕是要被他们压过一头了。”
这让他感到不爽。
自己境界更高、实力更强，论身份、地位，也不比他们差。
而且明明自己最先‘入赘’来着，最开始出力的也是自己，这咋还能被后来者给压制了？
哪怕现在还没被压制，不也只是时间问题么？
“不成，绝对不成。”
“我得杜绝此类事件再次发生！”
“我也叫人！”
想到这里，连伯眉头舒缓开来，顿觉豁然开朗。
不就是叫人么？
多大点事儿啊。
你们能叫，我不能咋滴？
真当老夫叫不了人？
“哼！”
“三对一是吧？欺负人是吧？看我也叫人！”
他取出传音玉符：“成广山，有要紧事，立刻来西南域揽月宗！”
遥远的北域，秦王府内。
长着络腮胡，面色粗狂的成广山一脸诧异：“连胜，你搞什么鬼。”
“神神秘秘的，有话直说不行么？来揽月宗作甚，你总得告诉我！”
“告诉你？呵，老夫只能告诉你，有大机缘，不来后悔一辈子！”
“你就说你来不来吧？！”
“大机缘？你别急！”成广山惊疑不定：“什么大机缘？你倒是说明白咯！”
“我跟你说不明白，这机缘你不要，有的是人要，你就说你来不来吧，我给你三个数，一、二···”
“来，我他妈来还不行吗？”
“连胜，你快说到底是何机缘？”
“别问那么多，立刻出发，对了，记得掏空家底，多带合道丹所需药材，还有，给老夫带些阵法材料过来。”
“什么？？？”
“就这样，我忙着呢！”
通讯中断。
成广山瞪眼：“···”
“他妈的！”
“这连胜到底搞什么鬼？”
“当我好忽悠吗？还大机缘，哪儿有那么多大机缘？”
“惹毛了，老子不去了！”
一通怒骂。
但随后，他却还是屁颠屁颠起身，收拾东西去了。
······
“罗玉书，你来不来？！”
“来作甚？”
“天大的机缘，你不来算求，我可告诉你，成广山已经决定过来，到时候，你若是输给他了，可莫要怪老夫没告诉你。”
“什么？那匹夫也去？”
“行，你等着，我尽快过来！”
“记得替我多带些炼制合道丹的材料，还有阵法材料。”
“你要合道丹材料作甚？”
“你管那么多？咳，这样吧，你能买多少买多少，老夫照单全收，每一份合道丹材料，老夫出一枚四品合道丹。”
“当真？！”
罗玉书声音瞬间提高八度：“你发誓？”
“老夫立下天道誓言···”
“不过，你也得发誓，带来的合道丹材料必须按照这个价卖给老夫。”
“好好好！”
罗玉书大喜：“我也立下天道誓言···”
立誓之后，两人都是哈哈大笑。
连胜颇有一种‘奸计得逞’之感。
罗玉书却是在心中暗骂臭傻子。
“这连胜，聪明大半辈子，临老却突然那犯傻了？”
"And he made me swear to sell it to him, only to him, haha..."
"This is almost equivalent to a fourth-grade Hedao Pill as a guaranteed bonus. Who else would want it except him?"
"Whoever wants it is a fool~!"
"Even if I wanted to sell it to someone else, no one would want it~!"
"no!"
Luo Yushu paced back and forth, muttering, "This is a great opportunity to make money. If I miss this opportunity, I'll never get it again. Even if I have to sell everything I have, I have to buy some more ingredients for the Hedao Pill."
“Perhaps, by taking this opportunity, I can completely surpass that old bastard Cheng Guangshan!”
"When the time comes..."
"Xiao Hui will definitely choose me."
"I will be able to win consecutive victories with my fists, build mountains with my kicks, marry the one I love, and reach the pinnacle of my life."
“Done!!!”
“···”
······
"Hey."
Playing with the sound transmission jade talisman, Lian Sheng showed a 'sly smile'.
"Play with me?"
"Can you beat me?"
"You're still trying to snatch Xiao Hui away, and you naively think that Xiao Hui will like whoever is stronger? How could you know that Xiao Hui has already secretly fallen in love with me..."
"Perhaps you will even call me stupid in your heart?"
“Hohoho~”
"I'll soon let you know who is the fool!"
He stood up, unable to contain his excitement.
"As long as they come over, I will definitely not be short of medicinal pills for a long time!"
"Moreover, the two of them regard each other as a love rival, so they will definitely not join forces to deal with me. This triangle relationship is extremely strong."
"But we will definitely stand united against the Huode Sect."
“Great!”
“As expected of me.”
The more Lian Sheng thought about it, the more proud he became. He then happily set off to the 'New Outer Gate' to get busy, dismantling the original formation, changing the terrain, etc., in preparation for the subsequent formation.
······
"All injuries have healed."
A few days passed, Xiao Linger took a deep breath, and slowly took out the Ice Spirit Cold Fire: "Teacher, please protect me, I want to refine the Ice Spirit Cold Fire!"
"good!"
Medicine Grandma said solemnly: "Be careful!"
"Although you have already refined three different kinds of strange fire, and you are very experienced and your strength is far beyond what you had before, the Burning Flame Art is too special. With each additional kind of strange fire you refine, the difficulty of refining it will increase exponentially."
"Don't be careless!"
"I will do my best to protect you."
"Thank you, teacher."
Xiao Ling'er's face was solemn. While practicing the Burning Flame Technique and making preparations, she decisively swallowed the Ice Spirit Cold Fire into her stomach.
Soon, a chill spread from his body.
The cushions and bed under the seat were gradually covered with ice crystals.
And the ice crystals are spreading...
Soon, the whole room was 'frozen'.
But the cold and ice crystals are still spreading, and the adjacent rooms are also affected...
"What's going on?!"
Wang Teng jumped up from the door with a bang: "Master Sister?"
No response.
But he couldn't just rush in rashly, so he could only use his skills to resist.
Gradually, other inn residents also noticed something and came out.
The waiter and the owner were just trying to find out the reason when the speed at which the cold air spread suddenly increased. In a moment, the entire inn was frozen.
That is to say, everyone has some cultivation experience, otherwise, they would probably turn into ice sculptures.
"this???"
"What's the problem?"
The shopkeeper's scalp tingled: "Quick, call in the city guards!"
"But please don't let any monk go astray, and don't let him die in my inn."
"unlucky!"
······
The city guards had already discovered the extremely cold air here and rushed there as soon as possible.
Soon, they discovered the source.
Wang Teng stood outside the door and said helplessly: "Everyone, I'm sorry, my friend is at a critical moment and must not be disturbed."
“The impact is too great.”
The leading city guard frowned: "How long will it take?"
