Mortal Cultivation: Starting from a Casual Cultivator

(If you have collected more than 3,000 chapters, this chapter will be updated. I owe you a yawn. It seems that you can’t write more than 4,000 words if you stay up late.)

"Uncle, how did the five people beside you bring out twenty-two elixir? What's the difference between them? Can't each of them have less than five?"

Wang Li used the voice transmission of his spiritual consciousness to ask questions. After all, if he asked the question on the bright side, it would be embarrassing and disgusting.

It can be regarded as offending all five people.

Not a big deal, but totally unnecessary.

"What do you want to know? I still want to!"

It can be heard that Uncle Chen has a lot of opinions about the fact that he did not get the corresponding rewards for his large investment earlier, and he also vaguely complained about Wang Li's alarmist talk before the trial.

"Five people, the first two are not bad, one brought out eight plants, and the other also has seven plants, as for the remaining three, let's not mention it."

Well, no wonder.

If he hadn't cheated the two groups of people from Spirit Beast Mountain and Huadaowu, and left some unlucky guy from Tianque Castle; Huangfeng Valley, which has invested the most in this forbidden trial, might be at the bottom of the rhythm.

Ah, no, if you count the two of Xue Wang, they are still the number one. After all, these two got seventeen plants.

"Master, all masters and uncles."

Wang Li, who knew what was in his heart, immediately bowed to the four Foundation Establishment Stewards and Old Ancestor Chen:

"Disciple boldly ask, is it our Yellow Maple Valley, is there a rule that those who participate in the trial are not allowed to exchange the elixir obtained from the forbidden area?"

He wants to decline the Chen family's solicitation, and decline to become Chen Patriarch's registered disciple!

What happened in the forbidden area made him deeply repulse the immortal cultivators. The tendency of apprenticeship has changed from being more focused on the Chen family to being more inclined to Li Huayuan, a quasi-lonely widow who has no family encumbrances.

And the refusal requires a suitable reason and a level that everyone can accept, and the Chen family must not lose face.

You know, directly rejecting a core formation period is almost equivalent to death.

The crux of the problem lies in the elixir brought out from the forbidden area.

Because these spirit herbs are not owned by Wang Li and other disciples who participated in the trial, nor are they owned by Old Ancestor Chen and the Chen family. It is a kind of [tribute] unconditionally handed over to the sect as disciples participating in the blood forbidden trial! It belongs to the sect!

(At that time, the sect will also give foundation building pills or other rewards according to the quantity and type of elixir that each disciple brings out.)

Eh? Old Ancestor Chen didn't even have the qualifications to control a few spiritual grasses?

The truth is, no.

If Old Ancestor Chen wanted to cut off the barbarians, it would be the easiest, quickest and most effective way to accept Wang Li, a disciple of medicinal herbs, as a named disciple.

Because there is an unwritten rule in Huangfeng Valley: for those who have a clear master-student relationship, the master has the right to take half of the tribute handed in by the disciple.

Therefore, Old Ancestor Chen only needed to throw out a (registered) disciple seat, and the spirit herbs that Wang Li picked from the forbidden area could be used as a tribute, and half of them would be cut off by the Chen family.

And for this half, it is justifiable and natural to start with the high-quality spiritual grass that is needed.

In short: accept Wang Li, and get a thank-you gift.

In the same way, if Wang Li wants to get rid of such a good thing, he has to do something that has never been tried in the past thousand years, that is: exchanging elixir with others, and exchanging the precious elixir needed by the Chen family members for the Chen family themselves The clansman who arranged to go in.

In this way, Wang Li can escape from the vicious circle of apprenticeship.

And this matter can only be brought up before returning to the sect, otherwise returning to the sect is another way of saying it. It can only be proposed while the Chen family members are happy after making great achievements at this moment; although this will be very disappointing, it will not cause the Chen family to turn their faces immediately!

From whom to get the spiritual grass? For them, it doesn't matter much.

"Exchange the elixir you got? What do you mean, boy?"

Uncle Chen frowned slightly and narrowed his eyes.

"Uncle, whether the disciples can trade elixir is very important to me, and it is also very important to the Chen family and uncle!"

This time, Wang Li used his spiritual sense to transmit sound again.

The subject of Old Ancestor Chen's desire to accept a registered disciple had already been changed once before, but Wang Li didn't dare try to evade and decline again. Therefore, before everyone in the Chen family could react, they rushed to ask this crucial question.

"Ugh, there is no express prohibition in the door. Why, who do you want to trade with? But there is no need to do so. Most of the spiritual herbs you harvested are extremely precious types, and you have already met the qualifications to obtain two Foundation Establishment Pills, and Even if you replace the inferior elixir with a more precious one, the number of Foundation Establishment Pills you get will not increase."

Uncle Chen explained with a smile and shook his head.

"Then, what if I exchange the elixir you need with Chen Shizu and Chen Shishu for the children of the Chen family? What about Wang Shidi and Xue Shidi? Why didn't they come out?"

There is no doubt that these two are the best candidates for the exchange. It's a pity that God's will tricks people, and they were all slaughtered by him.

"Wait, what about the IOU they wrote me?"

While speaking, with a trembling right hand and twitching corners of his mouth, he took out a jade slip from the storage bag. It was one of the two "IOUs" that the two left behind after they beheaded him two days ago in the forbidden area.

"Uncle, does this thing still count?"

Wang Li tried his best to squeeze his five sense organs together to let out a mournful cry, it was sad for those who saw it, and tears for those who heard it.

IOU?

What IOU?

Uncle Chen had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and with a wave of his hand, he snatched the jade slip from Wang Li's hand, and then stuck it on his forehead to test his spiritual sense.

The next moment: "Bastard, bastard, those two bastards!"

Her pretty face immediately turned green, along with a black line at one end.

"What's wrong? Show me"

Chen Laowu was also very curious about what Xiao Xiaoyu remembered on the slip, but Chen Laozu was even more curious and his hand speed was faster. No, with a move, the jade slip was in his hand. After a brief inspection, the old face also twitched, and he almost couldn't control the emotions in his heart, and directly crushed the jade slip: shameful stuff.

What exactly happened in the forbidden area at that time, he didn't need to guess much, he just made up the general idea spontaneously.

It was nothing more than the two of them saw the money and took advantage of the name of the Chen family to snatch the spirit herb of the little devil in front of them, and it was a spirit herb with a good age and good quality. The problem is, if you grab it, you can grab it, but you two have to bring out the spirit grass no matter what. Can't bring it out and grab a fluff.

Inexplicably, the more the patriarch thought about it, the more angry he became: a bastard who did more than fail.

When looking at Wang Li, there was a hint of complexity and understanding quietly.

This little guy has a grudge!

…

"Cough cough, two senior brothers, what's your surname? Also, can you tell me the quality of your spiritual roots?"

The ones who can be called senior brothers by Wang Li are those two peak thirteen-level Qi Refining Levels, so this question is indeed a bit presumptuous. No, there was someone with an unhappy face, and it was the one with the most spiritual herbs.

Compared with the one with one less spiritual grass, he didn't mind being asked about the secret of the spiritual root, so he replied to Wang Li's words with a smile.

"My name is Xu Da, and I am the three spiritual roots of wood, fire, and earth; this is Senior Brother Zhang, with the three spiritual roots of metal, water, and earth."

It seems that these two are still acquaintances.

"Then Senior Brother Xu, would you like to exchange some elixir with me?"

Wang Li's attitude is sincere.

When Xu Da heard this, his complexion couldn't help changing, and his expression suddenly became tense. He subconsciously thought that the two more precious elixir in his hand would be snatched away by the young man in front of him.

The monk surnamed Zhang, who was showing a hint of displeasure at the side, was taken aback for a moment, and then a hint of sarcasm curled up at the corner of his mouth.

From this point of view, although the two know each other, their relationship is "ambiguous".

"Boy Wang"

Uncle Chen seemed to be warning something.

Old Ancestor Chen was very interested.

Others still have an indifferent attitude that they have nothing to do with themselves.

Everyone is ready for a good show.

However, Wang Li's next words stunned everyone present.

"Master Ancestor, Master Uncle, this disciple would like to exchange a few plants of good quality fairy grass with Senior Brother Xu, please allow me!"

what's going on?

Fairy grass for spirit grass?

The five disciples of the Qi refining period couldn't understand this wave of operations at all. The old ancestor Chen who came over and the four stewards of the foundation establishment period were puzzled at first, and then frowning with different expressions.

"Boy Wang, do you know what you've missed by doing this?"

Uncle Chen still knows Wang Li best.

At this moment, the voice of this spiritual sense voice was extremely severe: Is it that the Chen family and his grandfather cannot get into your Wang Li's eyes like this?

Thinking of the consequences of this matter getting out, and what he, Mr. Chen, had done before, the anger in his chest climbed up, and he couldn't suppress it.

"Uncle, I know! But the kid also has something to hide! Uncle, I might have someone I like!"

ha?

The anger in Master Chen's heart stagnated, and he immediately became dumb from choking.

Old Ancestor Chen, who had overheard the sound transmission between the two without deliberate effort, had a strange expression on his face.

"Which girl do you like? No, what does this have to do with whether you want to be my grandfather's registered disciple? Don't interrupt me, boy."

Anger flared up again.

The topic of whether or not to be the registered disciple of Old Ancestor Chen is an unavoidable hurdle and must be handled with caution.

As for Wang Li, he made it clear that he planned to use the matter of the Taoist couple as a prevarication.

"Uncle Master, of course it has something to do with it. I've heard all about it. That girl was accepted as a registered disciple by Grand Master Li, and once the foundation is established, she can become a formal disciple; and with her talent, she will be able to establish the foundation soon. What about me, boy?" , if you want to win over that girl, and eventually become a couple of dual cultivators, you can only win the moon first."

Master Li?

It can only be Li Huayuan.

Li Huayuan has only one registered disciple recently:

"You mean that little girl from the Zhong family?"

Uncle Chen asked a little uncertainly.

"Yes, it is Zhong Weiniang. She entered the sect two years ago during the big move of the sect, and I can be said to have fallen into the trap with the boy. Oh no, she is the sect who was lucky enough to join the sect. Uncle, are you right?" You know, the first time I saw her, I couldn't hold any other woman in my heart. My Taoist companion is none other than her."

He didn't take it seriously in his heart, but his eyes were scorching hot.

And without waiting for Uncle Chen to "prick", Wang Li explained again:

"But with my talent in cultivation, it's hard to guarantee that I can succeed in building a foundation in one fell swoop. For this reason, I can only use a stupid method, that is, to show my sense of existence, and then get close to the water first. Seeing it, it can always leave an impression, and at the same time, it will not delay too much time for practice."

Take a deep breath and continue.

"On the contrary, if I abandon Master Li and stay away from that girl, I'm afraid I will miss her in this life. Uncle, you don't understand the feeling of being in love secretly."

Uncle Chen: "."

Old Ancestor Chen: "."

What's with the rhyming tune?

"Huh, and, boy, I can't accept the scene where she is holding hands with another man and doing double cultivation together! Absolutely unacceptable!"

Although it was a sound transmission, his eyes were already red, and bloodshot eyes could be seen on them.

Even a man can't bear to watch the person he loves become someone else's partner.

It can be said that monks no longer belong to normal people, but sometimes they are more "human" than normal people.

"Huuuuuuuuuuuupuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu etc. etc. Once things develop into such a bad situation, even if I build a foundation in the future, I think it will be because of this obsession. Let's do it!"

Wang Li has acting skills.

In terms of excuses, Wang Li was more logical in his analysis, and the three of the Chen family had to consider all kinds of twists and turns.

After all, it's about Taoist companions and Taoist affairs, so don't be sloppy at all.

"Hmph, could it be that if you become my grandfather's disciple, you won't be able to win the heart of that girl from the Zhong family? Don't argue! Besides, if it really doesn't work, grandpa will help you out, and Uncle Li will always give you some face. Wouldn't the probability of success be greater?"

Uncle Chen is not easy to fool.

"The premise is that she won't fall in love with other people early on during this period!"

At this moment, Wang Li was acting as if he wanted to get into a dead end, don't persuade him, it's useless to persuade him. He gave this win-win step to each other. As for whether the Chen family wants it, they probably won't refuse it.

Wang Li is just a common three-spiritual root, not the dual-spiritual root and the different-spiritual root that people are vying for during the alchemy period.

There is no problem with the three spiritual roots without special physical bonuses, and there is no problem in building a foundation; but if you want to form a pill, if you don't have other opportunities, basically don't expect it, one percent.

So when he changed to Xu Da, no one else would suffer except himself.

As for why you didn't choose the surname Zhang? With the other party's attitude just now, how could he befriend such a snobby who doesn't understand honesty and politeness, who only watches fire from the other side and stabs him in the back?

On the other hand, Xu Da has a good attitude.

In this way, it can be regarded as helping the Chen family to make a selection! It is not difficult for the Chen family to make a choice.

"Well, if I remember correctly, when you entered the valley, the little girl from the Zhong family seemed to be only twelve years old?"

At this time, Fatty Chen rubbed his chin and muttered.

When everyone heard the words, they suddenly looked strange.

Wang Li hurriedly forced himself with a numb scalp: "Ahem, haven't you grown up now?! No matter how bad it is, wait for two more years!"

Beast.

"Have you figured it out?"

Uncle Chen with complicated eyes felt that Wang Li was deliberately alienating the Chen family, but he didn't say anything.

Regardless of Wang Xiao and Xue Pan's assistance with the IOUs, or Wang Li's "change of medicine" step, it is unreasonable for the Chen family to entangle them.

"I hope my uncle will be perfect, and help me embrace the beauty!"

This is a risky move, Wang Li also thought for a long time before deciding to make the move.

In the beginning, he didn't resist becoming Chen Patriarch's registered disciple, but luckily he made things like Wang Xiao and Xue Pan.

The Chen family definitely couldn't stay there.

Among other things, those Chen family members who are close to Wang Xiao and Xue Pan will come to him to ask him about things in the forbidden area, and why Wang Xun and Xue Pan couldn't come out? How should he answer? Or do you accept it? Should he still practice with peace of mind?

These are all problems.

What's more, will someone maliciously speculate that he killed those two? Otherwise, why didn't the two brothers come out, but you, Wang Li, came out instead?

Don't bet on the possibility that such a disgusting guy exists.

He can't afford to lose.

Therefore, as soon as possible, go to the tents of other monks who form alchemy to linger, and you can use your strength to immunize yourself from these sequelae.

"You made your own decision, just don't regret it in the future."

Close your words, close your eyes, and don't say another word.

"Thank you uncle!"

Thank you so much for your continued care. Even if there is mutual use in it, it does not affect the constant goodwill of the other party.

The Chen family made sense, but the next thing was Xu Da who took advantage of it and didn't know it.

"Senior Brother Xu, I will exchange these two hundred-year-old blood orchids, this purple tang fairy, and these four spirit grasses that Mr. Chen values ​​highly, in exchange for the five best-quality spirit medicines in your hand + the opportunity to use your mobile phone after three foundations. Senior brother, but willing?"

At first, Xu Da was a little annoyed when he heard about blood orchid, an ordinary spiritual herb;

But when he heard Zitangxian and the other four elixir that were more precious than purple monkey flower, sky spirit fruit, etc., he immediately became excited.

Happiness came so suddenly that Xu Da couldn't react.

"Seven spiritual grasses for five spiritual grasses? And it's not the best to replace the high-quality ones with high-quality ones?"

That Senior Brother Zhang, the original smile froze on his face, and was replaced by disbelief and deep jealousy.

Not for anything else, just because I have harvested eight spirit grasses that are not bad in quality, this time I will definitely be rewarded with a Foundation Establishment Pill. As for the old friend Xu Da, he only got seven spiritual grasses at first, and the quality of the spiritual grasses was not too outstanding, far inferior to the quality of his own spiritual grasses, and in the end it was very difficult to get the reward of the sect's Foundation Establishment Pill. The greater probability is to get some other reward.

But now, the seven plants have become nine plants, and the quality of the spirit grass is not lower than that of the one here, and one of the foundation establishment pills is perfect.

Can he not be envious?

Not to mention that the price was only three shots after the foundation was established, it would be ten or twenty shots. If it was him, Zhang, he would admit it!

"Brother Wang, aren't you kidding me, brother?"

Xu Da is not stupid, otherwise he would not be able to walk out of the bloody forbidden area with "achievement above the average grade", he was just too excited and slowed down.

"If senior brother thinks three calls are too many chances, two is fine."

This in itself is a kind of rhetoric.

Say more first, and then lower it a little bit, the effect is often surprisingly good.

The mothers-in-law and aunts who buy vegetables in the vegetable market are best at this.

"Not too much, not too much, three times is good, thank you for your success!"

For Wang Li, Xu Da, who has earned money by blood, is grateful from the bottom of his heart at this moment, and his response is even more solemn.

"Then, three juniors, are you willing to make a deal with me?"

Ignoring the one surnamed Zhang, Wang Li set his target on the other three.

"Brother Wang, don't you?"

"The three juniors also know that all these spirit herbs have to be handed in. You can hand them in by yourself. The reward for the three in the door is nothing more than a hundred spirit stones for one plant of spirit grass; as for me, here is For the price of two hundred yuan per plant, I hope that the three of you will trade the spirit grass in your hands to me first! What do the three junior brothers think?"

This, for the three of them, is definitely a pie in the sky. It will not harm the interests of the sect, nor will it have any impact at all.

At least on the surface, it is.

As for the twists and turns in the inside, the three members of the Chen family, who knew a thing or two, did not say a word, which was regarded as a kind of acquiescence; the other two stewards in the foundation period saw this, and stared at their toes decisively, seeing through without saying anything, otherwise the three members of the Chen family would be punished. what?

By the way, have any disciples done this before?

Please speak to the leader of the Dandan Qi master before proceeding.

Wang Li's situation is completely due to the combination of various factors such as the right time, place and people, and is a special case that is difficult to replicate.

"Boy, I'm a bit sorry!"

Only two people could hear Chen Tianya's voice transmission.

Wang Li is the first one under the formation of alchemy to be able to apply the rules within the rules.

At least so far.

"Uncle, from now on, I will come and watch the mountain gate for you when I have time, hehehe"

Wang Li's sound transmission was heard by the seven people, each of them liked it, and it was intriguing.

…

"Okay, that's fine, twisted melons are not sweet."

That's all, even if the Chen family is guilty, this kid has no complaints, and he is still familiar with Xiaosi, so if you change the spirit grass, you can change the spirit grass!

"Boy surnamed Xu, would you like to be the registered disciple of this old man?"

The matter of the elixir was finalized, so of course Old Ancestor Chen had to cut off the batch of elixir that was going to be handed over to the sect.

"Yes, the disciple pays homage to the master!"

At first Xu Da thought he had heard it wrong, but when someone coughed lightly, he came back to his senses, and immediately flushed with excitement. The other four disciples in the Qi refining period looked envious, especially the monk surnamed Zhang, who was particularly depressed.

"Okay, this extremely flaming blade and this silver armor shield are the meeting gifts given to you by the teacher."

The hands are two top-level instruments, both of which are high-quality goods. Old Ancestor Chen's generosity directly moved Wang Li, and made the other two sect's Foundation Establishment stewards envious, let alone the few Qi Refining Stage disciples beside him.

At the same time, Uncle Chen also cast a regretful look at Wang Li, as if saying:

Seeing that there is no kid, this is the benefit of being a teacher. You missed it.

Wang Li smiled embarrassingly at this.

"Of course, being a teacher doesn't take advantage of you. Let me tell you clearly that the sect will not reward you with the Foundation Establishment Pill this time."

As soon as this remark came out, Xu Da's face suddenly changed.

"However, the teacher will give you the priority to participate in the Zongmen Grand Competition once; if you fail to achieve good results and win the Foundation Establishment Pill, the teacher will also give you an additional one. The disciples of the old man will not be affected by it." sorry."

This remark also has a meaning.

Wang Li was even more embarrassed on the surface (inwardly he was unmoved).

"By the way, kid surnamed Zhang, I'll buy you an ordinary hundred-year-old spirit herb in your hand for 200 spirit stones and give it to my disciple. Don't worry, it won't affect your ability to get a foundation-building pill. Return it to your little one." Made a fortune."

Master Chen speaks, what can Senior Brother Zhang say?

I can only smash it, smash it, my mouth is full of bitterness.

In the end, he was the only one who got the least because of his arrogance to Wang Li.

In other words, why did Old Ancestor Chen buy this spirit grass for Xu Da?

Because Xu Da has nine plants in his hand, if he divides half of them, he will not get half of them, which is not considered complete. Therefore, by replenishing ten plants, the problem can be easily solved.

As for Wang Li, there are exactly 20 plants now, so the purpose is obvious.

Therefore, he could only feel wronged by this disciple surnamed Zhang.
