Do not die

Meng Zhou looked at Tu Baiyao who had regained his fighting spirit, and felt happy in his heart, but he still had to make it clear what he should say first.

"How much do you think this kind of service and this kind of opportunity is worth?"

"And how much are the materials I need worth?"

"I appreciated your performance in the last transaction, which is why I came to you again this time.

I hope you can work out a plan for me. If it is feasible, I can help you with treatment now. "

Meng Zhou looked at Tu Baiyao and said these words seriously.

His eyes were full of honesty and trust.

However, what Tu Baiyao felt was pressure.

He understood that the unspoken underlying meaning of this "Ge Yaoshi" was that if the plan he drew up could not satisfy the other party, then there would be no need to mention anything else.

So, how should we grasp the balance between feasible and unfeasible?

Without thinking too much, he already had the answer in his mind.

From the perspective of "Ge Yaoshi", of course, the fewer the number of actions, the quicker the matter is settled, and the less trouble, the best.

If it can be completed in one day, it must not be delayed for more than two days. If it can be solved in this store, don't bother going elsewhere.

As a member of the Jade Blood Army, after hearing "Ge Yaoshi"'s "instructions" just now, he couldn't restrain his emotions and stood up suddenly.

It was because he thought of the "old", "weak", "sick" and "disabled" people in the Blue Blood Plain who were in similar situations to him.

Some of them were in worse condition than him, some of them were just above him in strength before they were injured, and some of them had a pivotal position in the Blue Blood Plains.

The most regrettable thing is that those who are talented, ambitious, and young, and everyone with a discerning eye knows that they will have a more brilliant future, but like him, they break their wings before they can reach the highest altitude and fall from the sky. come down.

He thought at the time that if he could get this "Ge Yaoshi" to go to the Blue Blood Plains, the strength and foundation of the entire Blue Blood Plains would rise a lot out of thin air!

But now, he knows that such thoughts are just a thought in his mind.

Soon, Tu Baiyao sorted out his thoughts.

“Thinking too much is not a good thing.

For now, the most important thing is to successfully complete this transaction and achieve deeper mutual trust with Ge Yaoshi! "

Thinking like this, he began to weigh this issue more from the standpoint of "Ge Yaoshi".

However, before that, he still needed to solve a somewhat embarrassing problem that he had to solve first.

"How many spiritual stones is the most that the Jade Blood Army is willing to give me?"

"How much am I worth?"

Only by solving this problem first can he use himself as a reference to determine a clearer plan.

This question made Tu Baiyao feel a little embarrassed at first.

But soon, he became calm and began to face the problem head-on.

"I'm not very valuable now. Everyone respects me. It's more about personal friendship, not my real great and irreplaceable value in the Blue Blood Army."

"But this is only now. If I can really return to my prime state as Pharmacist Ge said and maintain it for twenty or thirty years, even if I don't count future growth, fifty high-grade spiritual stones will still be worth it, right? !”

After determining his own value, Tu Baiyao's thinking suddenly became clear.

As "Ge Yaoshi" said, the foundation-building monks of the Blue Blood Plains have more or less hidden dangers and diseases in their constant battles with monsters and beasts, and in and out of dangerous places with evil veins.

The companions who came to Mikawa Plain this time were naturally no exception.

However, the situation is not as serious as his own.

The simplest way, of course, is to sort them from top to bottom, from severe to light, according to their cultivation level and the severity of hidden dangers, and bring them together to receive treatment from "Ge Yaoshi".

But the process must be cumbersome and the number of people involved must be large.

It is fair to say that the therapeutic value of other people is far less than his.

As far as he knows, he is the one with the most serious hidden dangers in his body. He originally had the strength of the late seventh level of Foundation Establishment. Due to the hidden illness in his body, he can only exert 70% to 80% of his strength, which is equivalent to the seventh level of Foundation Establishment. Strength in the early and middle stages.

Based on the fact that his transformation from a useless person to the peak of the eighth level of Foundation Establishment was only worth fifty high-grade spiritual stones, this level of recovery was only worth five high-grade spiritual stones at best.

It can be imagined that it is not an easy task to gather another one hundred and thirty high-grade spiritual stones besides him.

Not to mention that there are too many people and too many things, which seriously deviates from the needs of "Ge Yaoshi".

The key is that this kind of plan can only be regarded as satisfactory to the Blue Blood Army, with nothing outstanding about it.

He couldn't help but let go of his thoughts a little, and shifted his thoughts to the various encounters after the Blue Blood Plains exchange group came to Sanchuan Plateau.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

Looking at "Ge Yaoshi" who was waiting quietly next to him, he couldn't help but ask:

"Fellow Taoist, in my proposed plan, there is no restriction that the people receiving your treatment must be monks from the Blue Blood Plains and the Blue Blood Army, right?"

Meng Zhouyi was startled and shook his head first, "Of course there is no limit."

Then, he looked at him and said with a puzzled face: "Do you want to recommend someone other than Bixueyuan?"

"Yeah." Tu Baiyao nodded.

"Who?" Meng Zhou was curious.

"Dai Shouli!" Tu Baiyao said.

"Who? Who are you talking about?" Meng Zhou was unabashedly surprised, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

Speaking of this, Meng Zhou couldn't help but remind him:

"Do you know that this person is the most resistant to you in Sanchuan Yuan and the person most likely to create obstacles for you!"

"I know!" Tu Baiyao nodded: "But because of this, fighting for him is of the greatest value!"

Meng Zhouyi was startled, and then nodded slowly.

If you think about it carefully, that's really what happened.

The local die-hards headed by Dai Shouli are the most disgusted and resistant to the monks from the Blue Blood Plains being deeply involved in the Sanchuan Plain.

There is no doubt that in the future, this group of people will definitely create various overt and covert obstacles to entangle themselves with the Jade Blood Plain monks for a long time.

No matter how strong the Jixueyuan Foundation Establishment is, they are still outsiders, and they cannot draw their swords against them at every turn, and their bayonets will see red.

It is very unnecessary if you are passively involved in one incident after another, tired of dealing with it, and your energy and time are wasted for no reason.

Converted into spiritual stones, that would be a major and sustained loss.

If this could have been foreseen from the beginning and Dai Shouli had been "bought" over in advance, the situation would have been very different, or even completely reversed.

As long as they have a brief understanding of Dai Shouli's temperament and behavior, most people will probably retreat and think that this is an impossible task.

But for Meng Zhou, this is really not difficult.

Because for practitioners, a younger body, a stronger state, and a longer life are the most irresistible temptations.

And with Dai Shouli's age, cultivation, and status, he wouldn't have the slightest resistance in the face of such temptation.

Tu Baiyao is still looking for more reasons to convince "Ge Yaoshi".

"This man is rich, very, very rich!"

“We have regular communication with Sanchuanyuan all year round, and we know best how rich these people are.

Although we still make a lot of money every year, we either invest it in practice, or we invest it in elixirs, magical weapons, and talismans, and then they are consumed in the fight with monsters.

But they are different, a lot of savings have been stored away!

And the Dai family is the best among them! "

"Given his situation, he is definitely the most willing!"

Meng Zhou nodded. The old money man has a strange obsession with power and status, but he is about to die and his life has begun to count down. Such people are the most willing to spend a lot of money in order to be healthier and live longer.

Tu Baiyao's reasons are not over yet.

“Moreover, many of the materials you need are second-grade high-quality materials.

Through the coordination of the Sanchuan Society, we can mobilize a small amount of people, but if we want to mobilize a large amount, it is impossible to avoid this group of people. "

"Because more than 90% of the high-grade spiritual fields in Sanchuan Plain are in the hands of this group of conservative monks headed by Dai Shouli."

Meng Zhou nodded slightly and came to his senses.

To collect a large amount of second-level high-grade spiritual herbs and elixirs in Sanchuan Plain, Dai Shouli and others could not avoid it.

In this way, this is really a link that must be cleared.

Seeing that "Ge Yaoshi" was still silent, Tu Baiyao asked cautiously: "I heard that people like Dai Shouli did something very unpopular some time ago?"

This was a subtle question about whether he had any personal grudges against Dai Shouli.

After he asked this question, Meng Zhou's thinking became clearer.

"Yes, although this person once had the idea of ​​turning Mikawa Yuan upside down, wasn't he already slapped back by President Pan?"

"There is no grudge between me and him."

"Even if I really nurse him back to life, I'm not the one who should have a headache."

Thinking like this, he shook his head and said: "I don't care, but don't be soft-hearted, there must be no less oil and water to squeeze out."

Speaking of this, he remembered the "cold joke" he heard at the last gathering at Kan Yue's place, and couldn't help but sigh:

"This old guy is rich!"

But he said silently in his heart, President Pan, I'm sorry.

Tu Baiyao nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, we will do our best!"

Meng Zhou said: "It seems that you already have a mature plan?"

Tu Baiyao nodded and said, "You only need to take action three times."

"Three times? Once for you, once for Dai Shouli, and who else?" Meng Zhou was curious.

Tu Baiyao talked about the situation of the third person. He originally had the cultivation level of the late seventh level of foundation building, but because of the unresolved hidden dangers, he could only exert 70% to 80% of his strength, and his cultivation level also stagnated.

After hearing his introduction, Meng Zhou knew that this was just a gimmick.

It was Tu Baiyao who used it to silence the Jade Blood Army. Otherwise, if he was the only one in the Jade Blood Army to enjoy such treatment, it would be too special. Bringing in another late-stage Foundation Builder would make the situation much better.

Meng Zhou nodded in approval and said, "Okay, you can arrange it... I won't go to Daijiapu, right?"

Tu Baiyao shook his head, "How can that be possible? Of course he has to come in person!"

"Then how do you prove it to him? Just relying on one side of the story won't do. That old guy is notoriously intolerant of other people's opinions."

Tu Baiyao puffed up his chest and said, "What proof do you need? I am the best proof!"

Meng Yiyi was stunned, looked at Tu Baiyao, and suddenly laughed loudly and said: "Fellow Taoist Tu, I've really troubled you to wait for so long. Please sit down quickly and let's start now!"

Tu Baiyao quickly sat down, his face flashing with joy and then turning serious.

Meng Zhou said: "Relax."

After saying that, he handed the jade bottle into his hand and said, "Swallow the pill inside."

Tu Baiyao poured out the elixir, and a strange fragrance hit his nostrils, but he was surprised and said: "Life-extending elixir?"

As he said that, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Meng Zhou who was already standing beside him, and said: "Mr. Ge, when I performed the secret surgery of burning longevity, I had already taken the longevity pill."

Meng Zhou smiled and said: "It's okay, this is my master's secret medicine. It looks like a life-extending pill, but it is actually a life-extending pill."

Tu Baiyao, who was originally looking forward to it, twitched his face when he heard this.

"I told you that you don't know. You'll understand after you swallow it."

Tu Baiyao stared at the elixir in his palm, then opened his mouth and swallowed it.

After the pill entered his abdomen, the rich and pure medicinal power exploded in his body. At this moment, Meng Zhou's palm was gently pressed against his back.

A force that made Tu Baiyao feel comfortable passed through that palm, quickly seeped into his body, and dispersed into his limbs and bones along with the explosion of the elixir's power.

Just like the barren land that had been dry for more than ten years, sweet rain fell from the sky at this moment.

At that moment, Tu Baiyao was so comfortable that he almost hummed.

The feeling of returning to life made him feel inexplicably moved.

He was completely immersed in this wonderful experience.

After an unknown amount of time, as the hand on his back left, a voice pulled him back to the present world.

"alright."

Tu Baiyao slowly opened his eyes, with a kind of addiction and emotion still in his eyes. Looking at the figure close at hand, he sincerely thanked: "Mr. Ge, thank you!"

Meng Zhou smiled and said, "The situation is much better than I expected. I conservatively estimate that this treatment has allowed you to regain thirty-five years of life."

This is not only due to his healing skills as a pharmacist, but also to the life-extending pill he used on the other party. It is the only single pill of quasi-perfection pill that Yaya "hatched".

Hearing this, Tu Baiyao wanted to thank him again, but Meng Zhou said, "You might as well see what you look like now."

Tu Baiyao stretched out his finger, and with his cultivation at the eighth level of foundation building, he could easily display a water mirror in front of him, hanging in the void in front of him.

Tu Baiyao stared blankly at himself in the mirror. At this moment, he had changed from an old man to a man in his forties or fifties.

This is not a glamorous thing on the surface. He can clearly feel that his strength has returned to its previous peak.

No, it has more depth and depth accumulated over the years than when it was at the peak of the eighth level of foundation building.

In this state, he believes that it won't take long before he can try to sprint to the ninth level of foundation building with just a little adjustment after returning!

Meng Zhou saw him standing there in a daze and reminded:

"Fellow Daoist Tu, this proves that I have already opened it.

I also hope you can act as soon as possible, but don't make me wait too long. "

Tu Baiyao quickly put back all his thoughts, jumped up and said: "Mr. Ge, please wait a moment, I will make arrangements for you right away!"

While he was still in the room, he was already flicking his fingers and sending out one after another flying messages.

After a while, the two foundation-building monks pushed open the closed store door and strode into the store.

The eyes of the two foundation-building monks immediately fell on Tu Baiyao, full of disbelief and a look of daring to recognize each other.

Tu Baiyao smiled and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

One of them finally came back to his senses and said with surprise and joy: "Brother, are you really well?!!"

Tu Baiyao ignored him, but looked at a man next to him who looked to be in his fifties and said:

"Brother Nie, I have already told you about the general situation. Next, you can just follow Mr. Ge's arrangements."

The man he called Brother Nie was originally a little skeptical after receiving the summons from Feishi, but after seeing Tu Baiyao's current state, he no longer had any doubts and nodded quickly.

Tu Baiyao looked at the other man again and warned: "Please check the store for me temporarily, and be careful not to disturb Mr. Ge."

This man was the one who Meng Zhou came to visit for the first time and suggested arranging for someone to follow him. He was also the one who had the closest relationship with Tu Baiyao.

At this moment, after listening to Tu Boyao's instructions, he didn't have any objections and nodded, "Brother, don't worry, as long as I'm here, let alone a human being, I guarantee that not even a fly will disturb Mr. Ge."

Having said this, he turned to look at Meng Zhou next to him, with a fawning smile on his face.

"Mr. Ge, Liao Heng, if you need anything, just let me know."

"Then I'll thank you, fellow Taoist." Meng Zhou nodded and smiled, then looked at another man named Nie.

The man surnamed Nie introduced himself: "Mr. Ge, I'm Nie Feng."

Meng Zhou gestured: "Sit down, Fellow Daoist Nie. Since you already understand the situation, let's get started."

Meng Zhou first conducted a comprehensive examination on Nie Feng. His condition was much better than that of Tu Baiyao, and treatment would be easier.

To be honest, in fact, it is possible not to use life-extending pills.

But if there is no cost at all, doesn’t it mean that he is making too easy a profit, treating people just by raising his hand, and how can people not murmur when they pay?

But with the addition of the master's secret medicine, it's different.

What's more, this longevity pill is really not a fool, it can really bring them greater benefits, and it is beneficial to others and themselves, so naturally there is nothing to worry about.

"Come, take this secret medicine." Meng Zhou took out a jade bottle and said to Nie Feng.

Nie Feng took the jade bottle and poured out the elixir. From the outside, it was not much different from the longevity elixir he had taken before.

He had doubts in his heart, but when he thought of the changes that had happened to Tu Baiyao, he put aside all his thoughts and swallowed the elixir in an orderly manner.

…

On the other side, Tu Baiyao left the shop and did not leave the city to go to Daijiapu.

These days, the local monks headed by Dai Shouli did not refuse to participate because of their resentment. Instead, he followed the whole process, stayed on the front line at all times, paid attention to the progress of the situation, and occasionally acted as a stumbling block and troublemaker.

Therefore, if you want to find Dai Shouli, you don't need to leave the city at all.

However, before going to make an appointment with Dai Shouli, he first met with another man.

Judging from his appearance, this man was in his fifties or sixties. He had a tall and straight posture, and he walked in an organized manner. He always had a faint and warm smile on his face.

This man, who doesn't look fierce at all, is the person in charge of Bi Xue Yuan's visit to Sanchuan Plain. His surname is Yao Minggu, one of the two giants of Bi Xue Yuan.

Unlike the Sanchuan Society, which has President Pan as its absolute core, the Blue Blood Army has two cores.

One is responsible for fighting and arranging all actions against monsters.

One is in charge of logistics and various complicated personnel disputes. This person is Yao Gu.

He is responsible for managing the tube wars between the forces within the Blue Blood Plains. He is also responsible for the regular exchanges and trade with the Sanchuan Plains and the raising of various strategic resources for the Blue Blood Army.

This time, President Pan also personally invited him, and the matter was so important that he came forward in person, which shows how seriously he takes this matter.

Although he had received a message from Tu Baiyao in advance and knew the general outline of the matter. But now when he saw Tu Baiyao, who was several decades younger and whose spirit had undergone earth-shaking changes, Yao Gu still couldn't hide the shock on his face.

Then, he took it upon himself to examine Tu Baiyao's body carefully, and then he was truly convinced of the truth he saw with his eyes.

Seeing that Tu Baiyao wanted to go find Dai Shouli immediately, Yao Gu said:

"Don't worry, first tell me in detail how you came into contact with this Ge Yaoshi!"

Obviously, he was more interested in this "Ge Yaoshi" than negotiating terms with Dai Shouli.

There wasn't much to talk about. After all, the two parties didn't have much contact. Tu Baiyao just repeated what Feishi had informed him in advance.

Yao Gu listened very carefully, and occasionally asked "Ge Yaoshi" carefully about his movements and demeanor at certain times, in order to speculate on the other party's psychology.

Finally, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, he said:

"Is it possible that what really works is the secret medicine that looks like a life-extending pill, and his action is just a cover?"

"Absolutely impossible. Although the secret medicine played a huge role, his action was also crucial!"

Tu Baiyao shook his head firmly, and then emphasized: "I still have this judgment!"

Yao Gu rubbed his chin and frowned: "But if this happens, what about the safe house?"

"As you said before, the safe house was temporarily made by the other party based on the needs of the Jade Blood Army, and the maker was that fellow Daoist Ge."

"We have also studied the safe house carefully these days. The other party is not only a powerful spell master with a special inheritance, but also a second-level high-grade professional level.

His attainments in weapon refining are also extraordinary, and at worst he is a second-level middle-grade one.

If the other party started making it after the first negotiation with you, in such a short period of time, their attainments in the art of weapon refining are likely to be at the second level of top grade! "

Having said this, he started to twitch his fingers and said: "Proficient in Talisman Dao, Formation Dao, and Weapon Dao, all of which have reached the second level of high-grade, and may even be higher.

This kind of existence can already be called a monster.

Now you are telling me that the other party's talent in the Medicine Master is only higher than that of the Talisman, Formation, and Weapon! "

Having said this, he stared at Tu Baiyao, "Do you really think there is such a genius in this world? And we happened to meet him?"

"But that's the fact. Whether it's that safe house or a living example like me, it can't be fake, right?" Tu Baiyao said.

"Uh..." Yao Gu was speechless.

"Besides, don't you think that this situation is the most reasonable for him alone?" Tu Baiyao said.

"What do you mean?" Yao Gu asked confused.

"Since I'm already proficient in talismans, formations, and weapons, it's not too much to be proficient in medicine master, right?"

"Compared to the fact that we meet a genius professional who is proficient in talismans, formations, and weapons, and we happen to meet a genius pharmacist at the same time, don't you think it's more reasonable that they are actually the same person?"

That makes sense.

Yao Gu was speechless for a moment.

Just like after they carefully studied the safe house, they judged that it was the work of a genius who was proficient in the three ways of talisman arrays, rather than the cooperation of a second-level high-level talisman master and a second-level high-level weapon refiner. The products are the same.

In this particular case, the latter is less likely.

Although it seems incredible, these abilities all come from the same person, which makes it the most reasonable explanation.

Tu Baiyao seemed to think that the material was not strong enough, and continued to remind:

"Don't forget that secret medicine. If this medicine comes from his hand, then his alchemy attainments are not weaker than those of the others."

Beside him, Yao Gu didn't reply or question, he just lowered his head and twirled his fingers over and over.

One stick, two sticks, three sticks, four sticks, and five sticks. After pulling it with one hand, he suddenly raised his head and asked in a confused manner:

"Do you think he has a sixth or even seventh professional ability?"

Tu Baiyao spread his hands: "Who knows?"

Yao Gu suddenly asked: "Do you think I should go and meet him in person?"

Tu Baiyao was shocked and waved his hands quickly: "No, no, you must not go!"

Seeing that he reacted so fiercely, Yao Gu looked at him with suspicion hidden in his eyes, as if asking: "Why are you reacting so violently?"

Tu Baiyao quickly explained:

"What can you do if you go to see him? It can't be to recruit him to the Blue Blood Plains, right?

If you have this idea, I advise you to give it up as soon as possible! "

"What we have to do now is to establish better mutual trust with him. If he needs anything in the future, he will still be willing to think of us. This is the most important thing!"

“As for other things, you really shouldn’t think too much, and don’t have too high hopes.

Otherwise, if he leaves this door this time, it will be difficult to have a relationship with him in the future! "

“For people like this, as long as they are willing, they can prosper wherever they go.

But in our impression, there is no such person in Qingxuan Territory at all! "

"Don't you understand this?

For him, what he wants most is freedom, and what he hates most is entanglement.

If we are overly enthusiastic and make additional demands because of the methods he has revealed, no matter how sincere we are, it will be the beginning of trouble for him.

The connection we established with this opportunity will be completely abandoned when others turn around! "

"The best way to get along with such beings is to abide by the agreement and not to exceed it."

Listening to Tu Boyao's persuasion, Yao Gu frowned and remained silent.

It's not that he doesn't understand this truth, it's just that...

So greedy!

Just think about it for a moment, if this kind of character were from the Blue Blood Plains, he would be laughed out of his mind even if he died.

Just watching the other person wandering around in front of his house, if he didn't want to drag him into the house, he simply didn't deserve to be the head of the family!

In the end, reason prevailed over emotion.

He said with difficulty: "Okay, I won't go, you..."

He originally wanted to tell him to entertain the other party well, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that these words were simply unnecessary.

So he waved his hand and swallowed back the words that had reached his lips.

"Let's go, I'll accompany you to meet that old guy Dai Shouli."

During this process, both of them very wisely avoided one option - using force.

As a practitioner, this should have been the first solution that came to mind, but it was ignored by the two senior officials of the Blue Blood Army.

…

At this moment, Dai Shouli was sitting cross-legged and meditating in a room at the Sanchuanhui headquarters.

I was very surprised to receive the summons from Yao Gu.

The content of the subpoena is also very simple, that is, I want to make an appointment with him somewhere.

After pondering for a moment, he sneered, got up and walked out.

Of course he felt that the other party was not hiding anything behind this invitation, but this not only did not worry him, but instead made him curious and wanted to go to the meeting alone to find out.

In this Sanchuan Plain, he is not afraid of the other party cheating.

With this thought in mind, he left the room and went directly to the room where the summons was being sent.

After entering the room, he casually glanced at the other person in the room, then all his eyes were focused on Yao Gu, and sneered:

"Commander Yao, Dai is here now. Do you have any serious confidential information to share?"

Yao Gu waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not me who wants to see you, it's this one."

He said this with Tu Boyao on his finger.

Dai Shouli looked at Tu Baiyao again, frowned, looked up and down, and then said:

"I'm sorry, I don't know what kind of medicine you are selling in your gourd, and I don't know this... fellow Taoist either.

If you have something to say, just say it! "

With his temper, he would have casually brought out some derogatory terms, but sensing the other party's cultivation and energy, he chose to keep it in his mouth.

Just because you have a bad feeling for Yao Gu, you can't offend the strange monks who appear next to him, as that will easily lead him into trouble.

Yao Gu did not speak directly, but continued to smile: "Although you are not familiar with him, you have met him before. You might as well think about it carefully!"

Dai Shouli was unhappy, but he also stared at Tu Baiyao carefully, searching for past memories in his mind.

As he looked around, the other person's facial features gradually gave him a sense of familiarity.

Yao Gu continued to mention: "Just a few days ago, he got off the spaceship with me."

In Dai Shouli's mind, more than a thousand portraits appeared in a short period of time, flashing quickly, and the memory had been flashed back to decades ago.

Hearing Yao Gu's reminder, he quickly searched again. Finally, the image in his mind settled on a figure who looked older than him and whose aura was extremely weak.

The old figure, who looked like he was about to die at any moment, overlapped with the figure in front of him, who looked about forty or fifty years old, full of vitality and vitality.

His eyes widened little by little, and his mouth opened as wide as possible.

"How could it be?!" Dai Shouli murmured in disbelief.

"Brother Dai, it's a great thing that I asked you to come here. We thought of you immediately, but we just don't know what you think?"

"What are the conditions? Tell me!"

"...Brother, you are so proud!"

"..."

…

"alright."

Meng Zhou retracted his palm and whispered to Nie Feng.

Nie Feng, immersed in the wonderful experience, opened his eyes with unfinished regret.

"The hidden disease hidden in your body has been eliminated. In addition, you have gained an additional twenty years of life.

You should also feel that your body becomes more energetic and your mana becomes more active. "

"Mr. Ge..." Nie Feng, who looked a few years younger, was filled with gratitude and wanted to say something.

Meng Zhou said, "You should seize the time to adjust your interest rate now. If you make good use of it, your life span may be extended by a few more years."

Nie Feng's expression changed, he didn't dare to speak anymore, and he just sat cross-legged in the corner of the room to adjust himself.

Meng Zhou also began to quietly close his eyes and regulate his breathing.

The other person in the room, Liao Heng, who was left by Tu Baiyao to look at the store, stared at him, looking left and right, but did not dare to say a word.

…

After a while, a message flew into the room and came to Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou opened his eyes and reached out to take it. After reading the contents, he thought about it and asked Liao Heng next to him, "Do you have a mask?"

"Ah?" Liao Heng was startled at first, and then seemed to finally understand the question. He quickly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ge..."

"I have one here. I just don't know if it suits Sir's wishes." Nie Feng, who was sitting cross-legged in the corner of the room and adjusting his breath, said.

There was already an extra mask in his hand. He was about to get up and bring it to him, but the clever Liao Heng ran over and snatched it away from him.

Amid Nie Feng's futile glare, Liao Heng had already walked up to Meng Zhou with the mask in both hands.

"Sir, take a look, does it fit?"

This is a second-level mid-level mask, either a disguise, or a mask that tells others "I'm wearing a mask."

"Okay." Meng Zhou nodded and put it on his face.

After a while, Tu Baiyao took Dai Shouli into the store.

As soon as they entered the store, their eyes were focused on the masked man in the room.

When Tu Baiyao saw this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

He had just sent a message in advance to remind Ge Yaoshi that he and Dai Shouli were coming so that he could prepare in advance.

But he never expected that he was so prepared.

But what's more in my heart is still joy.

By doing this, Pharmacist Ge clearly told Dai Shouli, "We have a purely doctor-patient relationship. Don't get involved with me. I don't want to get to know you."

This also dispelled a hidden worry in his heart.

Dai Shouli stared at the masked man, sizing him carefully, his eyes flickering and his expression changing.

Meng Zhou, however, regardless of what they were thinking, urged: "Let's start as soon as the people arrive."

Tu Baiyao pushed Dai Shouli. Dai Shouli came back to his senses, took two steps forward, cupped his hands and said, "What should I do?"

Meng Zhou thought to himself, didn't Tu Baiyao even tell him his surname, Ge Mingping?

But he gestured on his face: "Just sit across from me."

Dai Shouli nodded and stood quietly opposite Meng Zhou.

"Give me your hand." Meng Zhou said.

Dai Shouli stretched out his hand, and Meng Zhou began to use various methods to diagnose and examine his condition.

Now that he has agreed, he will not be perfunctory and will never fool the other party.

After inspecting it carefully for a while, under Dai Shouli's burning eyes, Meng Zhou said calmly:

"Your body is different from that of Fellow Daoist Tu and Fellow Daoist Nie.

Generally speaking, you have basically never suffered any fatal injuries in your life, and the two most obvious injuries should be nearly a hundred years old..."

Dai Shouli suddenly said: "Ninety-three years, that was also the period of the most brutal killings in Sanchuan Plain."

"The Sanchuan Plain is really peaceful." Liao Heng curled his lips and said.

Tu Boyao turned his head and glared at Liao Heng who spoke randomly.

"However, those two times did not cause any fundamental damage. Moreover, the treatment was timely and a lot of good medicine was used. Although the techniques were rough, the injuries were basically healed at that time."

"Your current situation is that you are too old and your life status has declined. Those hidden dangers remaining in your body are like stones that were originally hidden under the water. As the water level decreases, they will naturally be exposed. This is because your status has declined and you cannot maintain it. Big reason to be at your peak.”

Another reason is that we are getting old. This is an objective law and cannot be changed by human power.

Until now, Dai Shouli was calm.

until--

"Now, I have two options."

"The first one is that I will extend your life for twenty years, and within twenty years, your strength can remain at its peak."

"The second one will extend your life for thirty years, but your strength will only be restored to 90% of its peak state."

"Whether it's the first or the second, once the time limit is up, you will fall back to your current state again."

Dai Shouli was finally moved, but he still kept thinking calmly and asked, "How many years do I have to live?"

"As short as fifteen years, as long as twenty years." Meng Zhou thought for a while and gave an answer.

Dai Shouli said: "I choose the second option."

The three people from Jixueyuan looked at Dai Shouli in surprise.

According to their knowledge, they will unanimously choose the first option without any hesitation.

In Bixueyuan, strength is the guarantee of life, and only with strength can you have longevity.

If the strength is not enough, no matter how long the life span is, it will be no different from zero.

But for Dai Shouli, the situation was exactly the opposite.

Although strength is also important, whether it is 90% or 100% is not that important.

On the contrary, the extra ten years of life of the second option is more attractive.

Meng Zhou did not comment on his choice, but only reminded: "If you choose the second option, your chances of going further will be even slimmer."

A wry smile finally appeared on Dai Shouli's calm face, "Even if it's the first type, the chances won't be much greater."

With his status and wealth, he has already tried what he needs to do. The upper limit has been reached. If he can't go up, he can't go up.

Meng Zhou nodded and said, "Then cross your legs and close your eyes, adjust your condition... Just leave everything to me."

Dai Shouli hesitated for a moment, but then complied with the instructions.

When he felt that his condition was about the same, a stream of spiritual energy came to his mouth.

"Open your mouth."

After hesitating for a moment, Dai Shouli opened his mouth as he was told.

"I don't believe it, how dare they do anything to me!"

Soon, the remaining thoughts in his heart disappeared without a trace, and he was immersed in the wonderful experience.

He felt like he was soaking in the warm spring water, and he felt like he was being lifted up by a light force and floating in the clouds.

Unfortunately, he was far from enjoying it enough. He was still "mid-air" when a voice brought him back to reality.

"alright."

With regret in his heart, Dai Shouli carefully checked his current status. Although he was not sure about the increased lifespan, based on his judgment, the situation should be similar to what the other party said.

More importantly, the younger body, the more active mana, and the more surging power surging in the body cannot be faked.

He looked at Meng Zhou, excited and sincere, and said with cupped hands: "Mr. Medicine Master, there are quite a few monks like me in Sanchuan Plain..."

You didn't need to listen to the rest of the words to know what he was going to say. Meng Zhou interrupted directly, "If you have any ideas, please discuss them with Taoist Tu and others."

"Ah?" Dai Shouli was a little confused.

Meng Zhou looked at Tu Baiyao: "My mission has been completed, what about yours?"

With that said, he glanced at Dai Shouli, turned around and walked towards the back room.

"If you have any unresolved issues, deal with them as soon as possible. I'll wait for you in the back room."

After that, he turned around and entered the back room.

Dai Shouli looked at Meng Zhou's disappearing figure and shouted:

"Sir, spiritual stones are not a problem. Everything is not a problem. If you have any needs, you can ask for them!"

Meng Zhou had already closed the door of the back room from the inside.

Tu Baiyao looked at Dai Shouli and said dissatisfied:

"Fellow Daoist Dai, it's not kind of you to do this. Is this your attitude towards the agreement?"

Dai Shouli looked at the closed door and withdrew his gaze with regret, then looked at the dissatisfied Tu Baiyao. He was also rarely good-tempered and did not argue with him. He just nodded and said:

"Don't worry, I will abide by the promise."

After that, he walked out without looking back.

Tu Baiyao looked at his retreating figure and shouted: "Don't forget our supplementary terms!"

"I can't live without you!"

Meng Zhou, who had been paying attention to what was going on outside, thought that Tu Baiyao would come to him soon after Dai Shouli left.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, he came in a hurry and placed the two bags in front of Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou had come out of the back room and looked at the two bags in front of him.

One of them is a storage bag, which contains three hundred raw materials for the longevity elixir he needs.

Worth 180 high-grade spiritual stones.

This was what Meng Zhou wanted, so there was no surprise.

But there was something in the other bag next to him that was a bit unexpected.

It was a spirit stone bag with a hundred spirit stones in it.

One hundred high-grade spiritual stones.

"What do you mean?" Meng Zhou asked in surprise.

And following Tu Baiyao's explanation, Meng Zhou also understood the reason.

He and Dai Shouli only agreed on a general framework, and more specific conditions would depend on Meng Zhou's treatment of him.

Among them, they are specifically divided into two indicators: life span growth and strength recovery.

The more his lifespan increases and his strength recovers, the more Dai Shouli has to pay.

"Then how much did he actually pay?" Meng Zhou asked with great interest.

"Two hundred and twenty high-grade spiritual stones."

Having said this, Tu Baiyao's face first showed a hint of joy, and then he shook his head and said:

"However, these materials were all provided by him. The only high-grade spiritual stones he actually produced were forty."

"But why are there another hundred here?"

"The rest is the reward for me and Fellow Daoist Nie. You cured me and Fellow Daoist Nie, but you only paid for 60 high-grade spiritual stones. I hope you won't be too short."

Meng Zhou waved his hand: "That's enough."

Tu Baiyao said again:

"I don't know if you need any other resources, so I will temporarily replace them with spiritual stones for you.

In the future, if you have any needs, you can come here to see me at any time. "

Meng Zhou transferred 300 longevity elixir ingredients into his storage space, and also collected the 100 high-grade spiritual stones.

He took off his mask and put it next to his storage bag. He stood up and said, "Okay, I will come to you if I need you in the future. Goodbye."

Tu Baiyao was about to get up and see him off when he saw Meng Zhou disappearing directly from the shop.

Tu Baiyao was stunned at first, and then horrified. His consciousness carefully explored the room, but there was no trace.

He turned to look at Liao Heng and Nie Feng beside him and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Both of them were lower in cultivation than him, and when faced with his inquiry, they both just shook their heads in confusion.

The look on his face was also a bit scary.

They all watched helplessly as a living person disappeared in front of them, leaving no trace behind.

It's not that they are ignorant. In fact, there are already second-level spells appearing in their minds like a marquee.

They had some idea of ​​what methods the other party used.

What was really shocking was that the other party blatantly disappeared under the eyes of the three of them, and finally disappeared completely in their spiritual senses, leaving no trace.

…

After using the Perfect Invisibility Technique and the Perfect Earth Escape Technique to leave the shop, and escaping a short distance underground, Meng Zhou sensed the aura of a foundation-building monk above him.

Although this person was not Dai Shouli, Meng Zhou was certain that this was arranged by Dai Shouli.

"This old guy."

This is the reason why he doesn't want to get involved directly with the other party. He is far less knowledgeable about current affairs than Tu Baiyao.

If you really want to get entangled with the other party, you will really know how to hit the snake with a stick and kick the nose to the face.

Meng Zhou quietly sneaked out of the area, and only after leaving the city did he speed back home.

"That's it. Next, continue to practice with peace of mind."

When Tu Dun returned to the courtyard, Meng Zhou had returned to his appearance as "Zhuang Sheng", with everything from his appearance to his aura changed back.

The few flying messages that stayed at the door of the quiet room suddenly changed their direction and pounced on him like a flock of birds returning to their nest.

While playing "Ge Ping", Meng Zhou adjusted his mana fluctuations.

All the messages sent to "Zhuang Sheng" came here and stayed there. It was not until he transformed back into Zhuang Sheng's image that they "recognized" him as the "recipient" through mana fluctuations and sent the messages to him. On hand.

These messages, some from Governor Li, some from Kan Yue, and some from Lu Quan, all talk about the same thing.

Tomorrow, September 28th, a foundation building exchange meeting will be held. Due to the large number of participants, it has been decided after research that the exchange meeting will be held over five days.

In addition to the general meeting on the first day, the next four days will be broken down according to the strength and needs of the participants.

Meng Zhou couldn't even think about it. He had already obtained everything he wanted, so there was no need to attend such an exchange meeting.

But Meng Zhou suddenly thought that most of the foundation-building monks would go to such a grand gathering, even if it was just to join in the fun. If they didn't even show their faces, it would be more special.

Fortunately for Tu Baiyao and others, firstly, they were not familiar with Sanchuanyuan's situation, and secondly, based on their understanding of him, they believed that he would not do such a thing that would make them unhappy.

But Dai Shouli was different. He was currently racking his brains to find clues from hundreds of foundations.

So, let’s show up.

In the early morning of the 28th, Meng Zhou left Zhuangtianzhuang early to attend the foundation building exchange meeting.

Until nightfall, I found nothing and returned "disappointed".

Moreover, because he had to cast rain on the spiritual field, Meng Zhou also canceled his subsequent schedule.

In this regard, several familiar Taoist friends also expressed their understanding.
