Beiyin Great Sage

Ge Hong's face was full of wrinkles and he was born with a sad look. After coming out of Qian's Mansion, he even sighed and had layers of wrinkles on his face.

"Pooh!"

The righteous daughter Tao turned around and spat fiercely:

"The guy named Qian will die in Qian's eyes sooner or later!"

"Keep your voice down." Ge Honggen glared at her, put his hands into his sleeves and sighed:

"Two thousand eight hundred pieces of silver exotic beast meat, plus so many source crystals, this is more than double the price agreed upon at the beginning. Where can I get it for a while?"

"Yes." Zhitao slumped his shoulders:

"It's okay for Yuan Jing, but how can it be so easy to collect silver exotic animal meat? The market price is so expensive that I can't even afford it."

"Father..."

Her beautiful eyes flashed:

"otherwise?"

"No!" Ge Honggen shook his head:

"Although my cultivation level is acceptable, I'm not good at killing, and I don't have much time left. It won't matter if I encounter something bad or bad."

"what would you do?"

"Father!" Zhi Tao's eyes turned red, and he said with hatred in his mouth:

"It's all the fault of Qian. He pushed the deal back again and again. Now there is another buyer who has raised the price so high."

"Two thousand eight hundred copies!" Ge Honggen raised his head:

"With Qian's character, this number can definitely be reduced. Maybe two thousand three hundred and four can be obtained. It may not be impossible to borrow it from someone."

"Borrowing again?" Zhidao frowned:

"The tone of the seniors last time was already very rude."

Because he was an alchemist, Ge Honggen had contacts with a lot of silver, so he could borrow some even if he had to sacrifice his dignity.

But favors will eventually run out.

Especially when other people are having a hard time too.

"What can we do?" Ge Honggen sighed:

"We have invested so much. If we stop here, the benefits and efforts we have given before will be wasted."

"Is it possible to exchange it for that thing?"

The thought of the ray of divinity he had obtained by chance moved his mind, and then he shook his head repeatedly to suppress this thought.

Unless he reaches a dead end, he will never use his divinity.

"Both of you."

At this moment, a person came close:

"Is there a senior Baiyin looking for you over there?"

"oh!"

Ge Honggen followed the other party's guidance and saw a man standing on the second floor of a restaurant with his hands behind his back, nodding towards the two of them.

The other person's face is very unfamiliar.

"who is he?"

Zhitao asked curiously:

"What do you want from us?"

"Even a villain doesn't know." The visitor shook his head:

"Senior just asked me to pass on a message, saying that it is related to what you two are thinking about. If you talk about it, there will be a solution."

"oh!"

Ge Honggen raised his eyebrows and gently stroked his beard:

"interesting."

"Then go over and have a look!"

This is the core of the Southern District, the territory of the Ghost Control Sect. No one dares to cause trouble, not to mention that the other party has made an appointment at a restaurant where people come and go.

As for taking action by force...

Although he is old, he is not without means.

"This is Li He." After entering the restaurant, Li He cupped his fists and handed over his hands:

"But Doctor Ge Xian in person?"

"Li He?" Ge Honggen looked through his memory and found no impression of this person. After hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and spoke slowly:

"Fellow Taoist said, is there a way to relieve my worries?"

"Of course." Li He nodded and said:

"To be honest, it was Li who competed with Dr. Ge Xian for that shop."

"What?" Zhitao was still hopeful at first, but upon hearing this his expression changed drastically and he said angrily:

"You're the one who raised the price to 2,800 pieces of silver exotic animal meat? You stole the store from us, and now you dare to come to us?"

"Peach!"

Ge Honggen pressed with one hand:

"Don't be angry."

"Two thousand eight hundred copies?" Li He was also stunned, then shook his head:

"Director Qian dares to open his mouth like a lion, but Dr. Ge Xian should also know that in fact, there is no conflict between us."

The focus of their conflict lies in the store.

It was Qian Xiang who sparked the conflict.

The two of them just want to do things that involve mutual interests, and there is no hatred other than that.

"Maybe."

Ge Honggen said lightly:

"But the fight over money sometimes gets worse. If Daoyou Li is willing to give up the location of his shop, I would be very grateful."

"If you want me to quit, don't mention it."

"No!"

Li He shook his head:

"What Li means is that we can cooperate!"

"Cooperation?" Ge Honggen looked surprised:

"how to cooperate?"

"Simple." Li He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the field:

"Li was ordered to seize the shop in order to sell animal luring drugs, and Ge Xianyi also wanted to sell elixirs. There is no conflict with each other."

“You could even say it’s a good fit!”

"In this world, one more friend is better than one more enemy, don't you think?"

"Animal luring drug?" Ge Honggen's eyes flashed, he thought for a while and said:

"Fellow Taoist just said, I am following the order?"

"Yes." Li He's face straightened, and he cupped his hands and raised his fists upward:

"By the command of my Lord."

"Your Majesty." Ge Honggen's heart skipped a beat. Li He did not hide his aura, and the level of fourth- and fifth-level silver cultivation was clearly revealed.

To be called a lord by such a person is either of noble birth or great strength.

Anyway.

It must be extraordinary!

"Father." Zhidao tugged on his sleeve and signaled repeatedly.

"Well……"

Ge Honggen waved his hand gently and thought for a moment:

"It's not impossible, but I want to see my fellow Taoist master's house. Is that possible?"

"This..." Li He hesitated:

"Li needs to ask for instructions."

"Of course." Ge Honggen nodded:

"It should."

…………

"Please, both of you!"

Li He led the way, and Ge Honggen and his daughter followed them into a manor.

Except for the core shops selling various things, the South District is not small, but it is not easy to own such a large manor.

At least.

It’s expensive!

"Father."

Zhitao whispered:

"This family is so rich!"

"Um."

Ge Honggen's expression remained unchanged.

With his age and cultivation, he has seen many more prosperous places than this one, but today is different from the past, and everyone's life is difficult.

In this case, those who are willing to spend money on enjoyment must be the truly rich!

And with great strength, he is not afraid of others’ red eyes.

However, although the courtyard here is large, there are not many servants, and the environment is quiet. It seems that the owner is an expert who does not like the excitement.

"this way please."

Li He led the two of them to the backyard:

"Miss Tianhe, it's them."

In front of the arch in the backyard, a woman stood pretty. She looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a graceful figure and a pair of beautiful eyes.

Looking at the Tianhe, Ge Honggen's heart beat wildly and he lowered his head subconsciously.

"Um."

Waving his hand, asking Li He to step back, Tianhe turned around and walked into the backyard:

"follow me."

"yes."

Ge Honggen looked solemn, bowed his head respectfully, and Fang followed cautiously.

Yi Pian's Tao looked surprised. Her adoptive father was a silver-level alchemist with a high status. She had never been so respectful in her memory.

Haven't seen anyone yet.

Just saw a maid!

Suppressing the curiosity in her heart, Zhitao followed Ge Honggen, and under Tianhe's guidance, came to a quiet room in the backyard.

"Owner."

Tianhe stopped in front of the quiet room, bowed and said:

"Doctor Ge Xian is here."

"Don't dare."

Ge Honggen waved his hands hastily and spoke humbly:

"I don't dare to be called a fairy doctor. The little old man only knows a little about medical skills and happens to be able to refine a few kinds of elixirs. It doesn't mean anything."

Zhitao opened her eyes wide and looked at her adoptive father who was uncharacteristically in disbelief.

"Your Majesty is being too modest."

A soothing voice came from the quiet room:

"The reputation of Dr. Ge Xian is spread far and wide. Zhou has also heard about it, but he did not expect that you also have research on poisons."

The voice was calm, but Ge Honggen's expression changed drastically.

He is proficient in the use of poisons. This is a secret that has never been known to outsiders except for a few people closest to him. Now, people can see through it at a glance.

"Fellow Taoist...the Lord's Dharma vision is perfect."

With his throat rolling, he lowered his head and spoke:

"I do know some ways to use poison."

"Ha..." Zhou Jia chuckled. In his field of vision, the old man named Ge Honggen was full of poison.

Using poison is probably more powerful than refining elixirs.

Diwei Xing: Watch the sky!

Observe the vastness of heaven and earth, observe the subtleties and end at the four extremes.

Even if the poison on Ge Honggen's body is scattered into fine dust and hidden in the void, he can still detect it at a glance.

"I will take care of the store affairs, and the old gentleman will help take care of it. You will share 10% of the profits from the animal luring drugs, and the store will share 20% of the profits from the elixirs you refine."

"Is it possible?"

The store can't just sell animal luring drugs. Other drugs need to be refined by the other party. Naturally, they have to share some of the benefits and mutually benefit each other.

"Okay." Ge Honggen nodded anxiously, not daring to object:

"The master has the final say."

"Then let's do it." Zhou Jia said:

"Take away the medicine you left in the yard. Don't come over if you have nothing to do."

"...Yes." Ge Honggen's face turned pale, he quietly put away the harmless and poisonous cigarette, bowed his head respectfully, and exited the backyard step by step.

It wasn't until he walked out of the backyard that he breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his back.

"Miss Tianhe."

He smiled at Tianhe:

"Little old man, take your leave."

"Yeah." Tianhe waved:

"Go ahead. Li He will let you know when things are done."

"Yes, yes." Ge Honggen responded repeatedly and bowed to leave.

It wasn't until he left the manor and was far away that Ge Honggen released his grip on Zhitao. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and he panted slightly.

"Father."

Zhitao looked puzzled:

"What happened just now? You have never been like this before!"

"You don't understand." Ge Honggen shook his head seriously and whispered:

"That girl named Tianhe is an immortal!"

"Seed of Immortality!" Zhidao's eyes widened, her hands covering her soft lips, her face full of disbelief, and she asked in a suppressed voice for a long time:

"An immortal species like the master of the Ghost Control Sect?"

In such a large southern district, there are definitely no more than three immortals, and each of them is a famous big shot, and Five Ghost Boys is one of them.

"Not bad." Ge Honggen nodded with complicated eyes:

"The medicinal powder on my body has the ability to detect other people's talents. That Tianhe girl is not only an immortal, but also a very special one."

Tao Zhidao knows this.

It was because of her talents in certain areas that she was adopted as an adopted daughter.

"Miss Tianhe is a species of immortality."

Her beautiful peach eyes flashed:

"She calls that person master, isn't that person..."

Legendary species?

"Be careful." Ge Honggen waved his hand:

"From now on, we are all considered to be that person's people. When facing that person, we must be more respectful and stop being petty. Just remember that."

"Uh-huh."

Zhitao nodded repeatedly.

The ones that can harvest immortality seeds are mainly legendary species, and nine out of ten of them are legendary species. When she thinks of the many rumors about legendary species, her heart is pounding.

That's...

The pinnacle existence under gold!

…………

Quiet room.

Zhou Jia sat cross-legged, surrounded by the aura of gold and iron. With every breath he took, wisps of aura of gold and iron were refined.

It's really much more convenient to have subordinates.

You don’t have to do many things yourself, you just need to practice wholeheartedly.
