Chapter 387 Equivalent Exchange, Completion of the Contract
Only through failure can one learn from one's mistakes.
Chen Fan understood this principle clearly and grasped its connotation deeply.
Therefore, what was said before was purely deliberate.
He wanted to teach Bai Zhantang a lesson in this way.
He knew Bai Zhantang very well, so when he expressed those words just now, it would undoubtedly arouse Bai Zhantang's curiosity.
This guy is very curious.
He just won't listen to anything you say.
And it will happen the other way around.
A body weighing 130 pounds and a rebellious bone weighing 120 pounds.
If you don't change your personality, you will suffer a great loss in the future.
Sure enough, it was just as Chen Fan had guessed.
This guy didn't listen to what he said at all.
After getting the spiritual fruit, he did not take it immediately, but observed it instead.
Seems to be very curious about the formation of spiritual fruit.
This delays the best time to take the medicine.
Therefore, the spiritual fruit dissipated.
Chen Fan remained silent at this time, and he did not respond to what Fuxi said.
Just the corners of his mouth turned up, his face was full of smiles
All this happened.
There's no point in saying more.
And this lesson has been deeply engraved in Bai Zhantang's mind.
Next time he encounters such a situation, he will never make the same stupid mistake again.
This is a welcome thing.
Sometimes, they know these truths, but they just don’t listen.
Only after you have suffered losses, will you understand the truth.
Next time I encounter such a situation, I will not be so careless.
Moreover, Bai Zhantang will surely listen carefully to what they say in the future.
Before doing anything, I will think twice.
When Chen Fan wanted to reach this place, a smile instantly broke out on his face.
Being young, it's entirely possible to make mistakes.
But if you make a mistake, you must correct it.
This is the advantage of young people.
If you make mistakes when you are old, there is a high possibility that you will lose everything.
At the same time, Bai Zhantang hurriedly ran towards Chen Fan.
Chen Fan stared at Bai Zhantang in front of him, with the corners of his lips slightly raised. He knew why the other party came to find him.
Then, his expression gradually became calm, and he slowly asked the person in front of him.
"What can I do for you?"
Bai Zhantang lowered his head slightly, with a hint of embarrassment on his face. After rubbing his hands together, he spoke with embarrassment.
"Shopkeeper, are there any other spiritual fruits nearby?"
Chen Fan was not surprised to hear these words.
Bai Zhantang's arrival is undoubtedly a perfect interpretation of everything.
Chen Fan didn't say anything, just a smile on his face.
However, at this moment, silence is better than words.
Bai Zhantang instantly understood what the shopkeeper wanted to convey.
In an instant, the whole person's shoulders dropped, and the whole person turned away weakly.
He looked very depressed.
He missed a great opportunity.
Especially when sensing the people around him, his aura became stronger.
He felt very sad.
Originally he had such an opportunity.
But he wasted it.
When Bai Zhantang's figure appeared in front of everyone, they all felt that Bai Zhantang was extremely lost at this moment.
They originally wanted to laugh at him, but when I saw his appearance at this moment, everyone suppressed the emotions in their hearts.
After all, Bai Zhantang had fallen into deep misfortune.
If I encounter their ridicule again, I probably won’t be able to bear it.
Who knows, he might do something extreme.
Master Xuanzang gazed at Bai Zhantang's face at this moment, feeling pity in his heart, and shook his head.
However, he was only doing this out of sympathy and there was nothing he could do otherwise.
After all, the shopkeeper had already told them to swallow the spiritual fruit as soon as possible.
But Bai Zhantang just wouldn't listen.
At this time, many people feel changes in their bodies.
After the spiritual fruit enters the body, it transforms into pure and flawless spiritual energy.
Everyone felt that their own cultivation was growing slowly and gradually.
At this moment, their hearts were also moved.
At this moment, Bai Zhantang was regretting his decision to the core.
If he had not been so curious just now, he would have chosen to listen carefully to the shopkeeper's words.
He is the same as these people, his aura has increased a lot.
Now, everyone has made progress, except him who is still standing still.
Master Xuanzang walked slowly towards the exhibition hall and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
"This experience is actually a profound lesson. There is no need to be so disappointed. Just remember it well."
"Besides, how could there be only one spiritual fruit tree growing on this land?"
"There must be other precious things out there."
“Don’t be discouraged. Believe that we will encounter more challenges and opportunities in the future.”
Bai Zhantang didn't say anything when he heard this.
But he kept his head down.
"Why don't you speak?" Master Xuanzang frowned when he saw this scene.
He wanted to say something else, but in the end, nothing came out.
Since everyone has made a choice, they must bear the corresponding consequences.
Otherwise, no lesson will be learned at all.
In some cases, it's impossible to do exactly what you want.
Bai Zhantang sat alone on the ground.
It was as if I was on the edge of the crowd, and I had a feeling of being excluded.
But the way it looks now, it's obviously not the case.
Bai Zhantang's experience aroused everyone's sympathy.
Everyone knew that he felt bad.
We had laughed at each other before, but this matter can almost be put behind us.
Chen Fan looked at everyone present and felt that they all had heavy emotions and seemed a little helpless.
He was silent for a while, and then he spoke to everyone:
"Aren't you tired?"
"If you are not tired, then just continue on your way, because time is very tight at this moment."
As soon as Chen Fan's words came out, everyone came back to their senses in an instant, and all the sadness on their faces disappeared completely.
They kept talking.
"Boss, we are very tired. We were just feeling emotional just now, but we are actually exhausted."
"We spent the entire day concentrating on our surroundings, fearing that something dangerous might happen."
"We are already exhausted at this point. We can't keep going now."
"That's right. No, no, I have to take a break."
Everyone was talking at once.
But some smarter ones just ran to a nearby place and quickly sat cross-legged.
After seeing this scene, many people immediately began to practice meditation.
Practicing meditation is actually a way to restore your spirit.
When everyone went to rest, only Master Xuanzang stood in front of Chen Fan.
Chen Fan glanced at him, and then he opened his mouth to ask.
Chen Fan's face showed a calm expression, without any ups and downs.
But those eyes radiated a deep light, as if containing endless wisdom.
It’s as if you can get a glimpse into someone else’s innermost thoughts with just a glimpse.
Master Xuanzang felt a little uncomfortable, as if he had no secrets in front of Chen Fan.
After remaining silent, Master Xuanzang finally spoke.
"Boss, I have an unwelcome request."
Chen Fan raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced around, and instantly understood what the person in front of him wanted to convey.
He nodded slightly, and after a moment's silence, he slowly nodded.
However, before Master Xuanzang could speak, Chen Fan asked first: "Do you want to master the basic knowledge required for cultivation?"
Upon hearing this, Master Xuanzang was filled with shock.
Master Xuanzang raised his head without hesitation and nodded quickly.
Although he didn't know why the shopkeeper knew what he was thinking.
However, he did want to know about it.
In fact, not only him, everyone else wants to know.
In Master Xuanzang's mind, Bai Zhantang had actually made such a serious mistake and was completely ignorant of the common sense in the cultivation world.
However, up to now, Bai Zhantang is still depressed.
Sad alone.
Chen Fan stared at the person in front of him with sharp eyes and spoke slowly.
"I can give it to you, but there are certain requirements."
Hearing this, Master Xuanzang was deeply excited, as if filled with a surge of emotion.
He nodded impatiently and said to the person in front of him: "Boss, no matter what you ask for, I will agree to it."
There is no doubt that the value of these basic, simple things is immeasurable.
“My request is not excessive.
"Just pay me twenty spiritual fruits and the deal will be done."
"I'll give you three days. If you can meet my requirements within three days, we'll make the deal."
Upon hearing this, Master Xuanzang was slightly stunned and seemed to be lost in thought.
Faced with this situation, he felt a little confused.
He thought the shopkeeper would give it to them directly.
After all, this is extremely urgent for them.
It can completely save them from taking many detours.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that the shopkeeper has no obligation to help them.
After figuring it all out, Master Xuanzang nodded.
"Boss, please give me some time. I can't make the decision on this matter. I need to discuss it with everyone."
"If they have no objections, I'll come find you again."
Hearing this, Chen Fan nodded.
"Sure, but there's a time limit. After half a cup of tea, I'll assume you've given up."
Chen Fan said calmly.
Hearing Chen Fan's answer, Master Xuanzang did not dare to hesitate and quickly turned around and left.
Then he arrived beside Zhang Sanfeng.
At this time, he saw Zhang Sanfeng was practicing, and without caring whether it would disturb him, he spoke directly.
"Master Sanfeng, there is something very important that I want to discuss with you." Master Xuanzang's face was full of anxiety.
At this time, Zhang Sanfeng still had his eyes open, his face full of confusion.
"What's the matter?"
Zhang Sanfeng looked at the other party's anxious expression and his expression became serious.
It was obvious that the other party was in a hurry.
Master Xuanzang nodded and said quickly: "This is what happened. I just got the offer from the shopkeeper. He can tell us the basics of cultivation, but we have to pay a price."
"In three days, we need to find twenty spiritual fruits for the shopkeeper. If we can reach this deal, the shopkeeper will tell us the basic knowledge of cultivation."
After hearing these words, Zhang Sanfeng was stunned for a moment.
But he soon understood Master Xuanzang's intention.
So without any hesitation, he nodded in agreement.
Because this is something that is completely beneficial to everyone.
"I have no problem here, let's go and ask other people for their opinions."
"Well, but we must be quick. The shopkeeper only gives us half a cup of tea." Master Xuanzang reminded.
Hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng also became anxious.
Without any hesitation, Zhang Sanfeng rushed towards the crowd.
Seeing Zhang Sanfeng so impatient, Master Xuanzang breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that there are still people who care about everyone's interests at all times.
Soon, Zhang Sanfeng woke everyone up.
Then discuss the matter.
When Fuxi saw this scene, a trace of melancholy appeared on his face.
"I thought you were still the same."
"But you are much more mature than I thought."
After hearing Fuxi's words, Chen Fan's mouth twitched.
It seems that I am very naive in the other person's eyes.
Chen Fan glanced at Fuxi and said calmly: "I can't be that naive."
"I want to let them know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Everything requires a price."
"If you want to get something for nothing, it's better to go to your dreams."
"They used to live under my wing and took many things for granted."
"But many things are not that simple. If they are not familiar with the rules of the event, they will suffer a great loss one day."
When Chen Fan talked about this topic again, the atmosphere became a little solemn.
Fuxi shook his head and finally let out a sigh.
At this time, Chen Fan no longer cared about what Fuxi was thinking.
Instead, he turned his gaze to the crowd.
In fact, everything he did had only one purpose, which was to make these people become stronger quickly.
Then be able to take responsibility.
There is not much time left for them.
What he is doing now can't be considered as forcing things to happen.
It's just to wake these people up.
Soon, everyone had reached an agreement.
They all agreed.
The most crucial reason was Bai Zhantang’s previous fate, which made them full of fear.
There is no way to know how many things need to be paid attention to on this road.
If you encounter such a problem, you will definitely have to compensate for the loss in the end.
This taught them a lesson.
The world of cultivating immortals is completely different from the previous world of martial arts.
Many things simply cannot be viewed with common sense.
If they don't understand the common sense, they will take many detours.
After everyone discussed it, Master Xuanzang and Zhang Sanfeng quickly came to Chen Fan as representatives.
"Shopkeeper, we are willing to make this deal."
"In three days, we will collect twenty spiritual fruits and give them to you."
Zhang Sanfeng said seriously.
After hearing this, Chen Fan nodded.
Afterwards, Chen Fan was seen carving a contract formation in the air.
At the same moment, an image inexplicably appeared in the minds of both of them.
"This is a contract formation. As long as you nod in agreement, the contract will be completed."
"When the time comes, take back what I want according to the regulations, and I will teach you the basics."
"What can I do for you?"
