"Comrade, don't lie to me. The Ghost King behind me has betrayed you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Meng immediately turned around and shot at Aye Ghost King, who was about to hide. He gritted his teeth and shouted at him, "Aye Ghost King, you stinky ghost, you actually betrayed me!"
The Ghost King Aye immediately stopped hiding and looked at the two young couple who seemed to want to kill him with a face that looked like he was about to cry.
He quickly put on a flattering smile and looked at Zhang Meng, "Zhang Meng, listen to me, I have no choice but to do this. You don't want to see Di Zhi, but I want to see him. I have no choice but to give you up to seduce him."
After hearing these words, Zhang Meng said coldly, "Just wait!"
Zhang Meng took a few deep breaths and quickly looked at Lord Di Zhi calmly. "I have indeed seen the alchemy secret manual, but I have never practiced it. I came to your ghost market this time just to find some medicinal herbs to try to refine them."
Di Zhi nodded, "Okay, I believe you."
Zhang Meng immediately felt relieved and smiled, "That's good. We can leave now, right?"
After saying that, Zhang Meng quickly took Gu Mingtai's hand and left.
As a result, before the couple had taken a few steps, they were blocked by several little ghosts around Di Zhi.
Gu Mingtai, whose hands had been held down by Zhang Meng, had a cold expression on his face. He glanced coldly at Di Zhi and said, "Tell your men to get out of the way."
Di Zhi chuckled and gave a look to the few little ghosts who were stopping Zhang Meng and the others.
The next moment, the three little ghosts blocking their way immediately floated away.
Di Zhi spread his hands, a friendly smile on his face, and said, "Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong. I have no ill intentions. I sincerely want to cooperate with you two. You two need medicinal herbs, right? I can provide them. I have as many as you want. As long as this female comrade can give me a few of the pills she refines in the future, that's all that's needed."
Zhang Meng frowned. "You're stopping us just for something as simple as this?"
Di Zhi gave a bitter smile, "This matter may seem simple to you, but in the eyes of us ghosts, it is harder than ascending to heaven."
After he finished speaking, Di Zhi stared at her and continued, "Your last name is Zhang, right? I'll call you Comrade Zhang. Comrade Zhang, I'm the ancient monster Qiong. I was originally the son of the Dragon King, but because I don't look like them, I'm not recognized by the dragon people of the dragon clan and am called Qiong by the world. Is this fair to me?" Di Zhi shouted at Zhang Meng excitedly.
When Zhang Meng heard the word "犼", he couldn't help but think of a book he had read, which recorded the names of many ancient monsters, including this one. According to records, this "犼" was shaped like a rabbit, with long and pointed ears.
After he finished speaking, Zhang Meng asked, "I sympathize with your situation, but I'm just a witch who exorcises ghosts. I can't help you with your problem."
Di Zhi glanced at her and smiled, "No, there is only one kind of person in this world who can help me, and that is an alchemist. Since you can make pills, you can definitely help me. Comrade Zhang, I have a secret manual for the Soul-Concentrating Pill here. As long as you can help me make it, I, Di Zhi, will never refuse any help you ask for in the future."
Before Zhang Meng could react to what this Condensation Pill was, the Ghost King Aye standing beside her shouted in surprise, "Condensation Pill! You actually have the Condensation Pill secret manual on you! How is that possible? Wasn't this secret manual lost a long time ago?"
Di Zhi looked towards it and said with a confident smile, "I am an ancient demon beast, a demon that has lived for tens of thousands of years."
Zhang Meng immediately turned around and looked at the Ghost King Aye and asked, "What the hell is this Spirit Concentration Pill? Is it very powerful?"
Aye Ghost King opened his mouth and looked at Zhang Meng as if he was looking at a monster.
Zhang Meng immediately gritted his teeth and warned fiercely, "Aye Ghost King, you stinking ghost better put on that expression. I haven't settled your old score yet, are you trying to settle this new score with the old one all at once?"
Aye Ghost King froze in fear and immediately shook his head, "I don't want to, I said."
After saying this, it swallowed its saliva and then slowly explained the power of the Concentrating Spirit Pill. "This Concentrating Spirit Pill is actually one of the most advanced elixirs. The reason it's called the Concentrating Spirit Pill is that the ghosts who eat it can condense into a spirit pill in one fell swoop when they reach the final stage of cultivation!"
After listening to Aye Ghost King's explanation, Zhang Meng looked at Di Zhi with a strange expression, "You are an ancient demon beast, a demon beast that has lived for tens of thousands of years. Do you still need this spirit-condensing pill?"
Di Zhi gave a bitter smile, "If it were tens of thousands of years ago, I really wouldn't have needed it, but now, the spiritual energy here is so thin that it's basically hopeless to continue cultivating."
Zhang Meng bit her lip and said with an embarrassed look, "But I haven't refined the mind-concentrating pill you mentioned. I can't do it. You should find someone else."
Although she was very tempted by his suggestion of providing medicinal materials, she knew her own weight.
Di Zhi smiled and said, "Do you think I haven't looked for alchemists over the years? The alchemists I found were all just in name only and had no ability to make elixirs at all."
Zhang Meng glanced at him and said a little embarrassedly, "I might be just a name for it. To tell you the truth, I've never made an elixir before. This is my first time refining the herbs I bought. I don't even know if I can succeed. You'd better not put your hopes on me."
After hearing what she said, Di Zhi suddenly raised his hand, interrupting what Zhang Meng was about to say. He smiled faintly and said, "I trust my own intuition. You can practice it."
Looking at the other person's smile that seemed to indicate that he believed in her, Zhang Meng felt helpless and had to turn to Gu Mingtai for help.
Gu Mingtai glanced at her and gave her a look that told her not to worry. Then his eyes, which were filled with a turbid smile, began to stare at Di Zhi.
Zhang Meng, who was standing aside, saw the two men, one demon, staring at each other like this, and felt uneasy.
Just then, a sudden voice startled her.
"Zhang Meng, the man in your family is as powerful as this one. I didn't realize he is quite capable." Aye Ghost King stood beside her again and spoke secretly without her knowing when.
Zhang Meng touched her pounding heart and glared at him.
Aye Ghost King was stared at innocently and walked away in shame.
"We can help you try to refine the Concentration Pill, but it may not be successful. If it fails, neither of us can blame the other."
After the man and the demon looked at each other for a while, Gu Mingtai spoke first, his momentum not inferior to that of the ancient demon beast in front of him.
Di Zhi thought about it for a moment and nodded quickly, "Okay, I can agree. Anything else?"
At this moment, Gu Mingtai's aura was still as strong as if he was standing alone and looking down upon the world. He looked directly at Di Zhi and continued, "Even if you just admitted it, if we encounter any difficulties in the future, I hope you can keep your promise."
