The ancestor of talismans

"Hello, Shopkeeper He!"

Xu Changshou smiled and spoke. Seeing He Shuixiu, he was somewhat emotional.

Back then, when he first came to Wanxian Pavilion, He Shuixiu had just taken over as the shopkeeper of Wanxian Pavilion. At that time, she gave Xu Changshou the impression of being dazzling and a person he dared not look directly at.

So many years have passed, and He Shuixiu is still the shopkeeper of Wanxian Pavilion. Her cultivation has also reached the great perfection of foundation building, but at this time, He Shuixiu spoke to him carefully, for fear of saying the wrong thing.

"Senior... Please forgive my poor eyesight, you are..."

Xu Changshou smiled and said, "I am Wang Hai."

"So it's Senior Wang, I'm sorry! Senior Wang, please, please go upstairs!"

He Shuixiu carefully led Xu Changshou to the living room on the second floor.

She basically knew most of the Jindan cultivators of the five major immortal sects, and she had no impression of Wang Hai.

Then, most likely, this person is either a member of a certain immortal sect who is about to pass away, or a newly promoted Jindan cultivator in disguise.

Seeing that Xu Changshou had no intention of revealing his identity, He Shuixiu did not dare to ask more.

After entering the living room, He Shuixiu diligently made tea.

After a while, the aroma of tea wafted over, and He Shuixiu picked up the teapot and poured tea for Xu Changshou.

"Senior Wang, please drink tea!"

"Hmm!"

Xu Changshou took a sip and drank a fragrant sip.

In the past, whether he was in the Qi Refining Realm or the Foundation Building Realm, he had come here to drink He Shuixiu's tea.

The tea at that time was completely different from the tea this time.

Obviously, the tea provided by He Shuixiu is also divided into grades.

People of different grades drink different teas, depending on the person.

Glancing at He Shuixiu, Xu Changshou smiled and said, "Your tea tastes good. What kind of tea is it?"

He Shuixiu said respectfully, "Reporting to Senior Wang, this is the top-grade small-leaf red tea from Cangcui Mountain. The production is very rare, with an annual production of less than ten kilograms. It is specially used by Wanxian Pavilion to entertain distinguished guests. We ourselves are reluctant to drink it. If you like it, I will give you half a tael."

"No need, I just said it casually."

Xu Changshou took another sip of tea, and then asked, "Manager He, do you have Jinlingdan here?"

"Yes."

He Shuixiu nodded, with a smile on his face.

Xu Changshou asked about Jinlingdan, and he must have bought it.

In the entire Dongyu Xiuxian world, only Wanxian Pavilion sells Jinlingdan, so it is not uncommon for people to come here to buy Jinlingdan.

"Can I take a look?" Xu Changshou asked.

"Of course."

He Shuixiu smiled slightly, took out a bottle of pills, and handed it to Xu Changshou.

Xu Changshou took a look and nodded slightly. The quality of the Jinling Pill sold by Wanxian Pavilion was not inferior to the one he bought from Zhang Zongchang.

"How much is the price?" Xu Changshou asked again.

He Shuixiu smiled and said, "Under normal circumstances, the retail price of Jinling Pill is ten middle-grade spirit stones per pill. If the senior wants more, more than two hundred, you can get a discount of half."

There is also a discount...

Xu Changshou nodded slightly. If the discount is half, a Jinling Pill only costs nine and a half middle-grade spirit stones, which is more cost-effective than buying it in the sect. Xu Changshou thought for a moment and said, "I want a lot, and the demand will be greater in the future. Can you give me a 10% discount?"

"Sorry, Senior Wang, a 50% discount is already the best offer."

"Okay! 50% is 50%."

"Senior, how much do you want?"

"Uh..."

Xu Changshou pondered for a moment, made up his mind, and said, "Give me 480."

At this time, Xu Changshou had a total of 4,860 spiritual stones on him. He decided to buy all the spiritual stones into Golden Spirit Pills.

As for daily expenses, there is no need to worry. He has a salary and 8,000 unrealized fire thunder talismans, which can be exchanged for spiritual stones at any time.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go to the alchemy room."

He Shuixiu bowed slightly and left here.

After a while, He Shuixiu returned and put a storage bag in front of Xu Changshou with a smile on his face.

"Senior Wang, the pills you want are all here. Please take a look."

Xu Changshou swept his mind and saw a total of 48 jade bottles, each of which contained ten Golden Spirit Pills.

The Golden Spirit Pills in this storage bag were of the same quality as the Golden Spirit Pills that He Shuixiu had shown him before.

"The pills are fine. How many spiritual stones?"

He Shuixiu smiled and said, "A total of 4,800 spiritual stones. After the discount, it is 4,560."

"Okay, wait a moment!"

Xu Changshou took out a storage bag and quickly sorted out 4,560 spiritual stones and handed them to He Shuixiu.

He Shuixiu checked and put away the storage bag: "Senior Wang, the number is just right. These Golden Spirit Pills are yours."

"Thank you." Xu Changshou smiled and put away the storage bag.

At this time, He Shuixiu patted the storage bag, took out a palm-sized mahogany box, and placed it in front of Xu Changshou.

"Shopkeeper He, this is..."

"Senior Wang, this is two taels of small-leaf red tea leaves, a little gift for you to try!"

"Thank you for your kindness."

Xu Changshou nodded, without being polite, and put away the tea leaves.

"Shopkeeper He, goodbye!"

"Senior Wang, take care!"

...

After returning to Green Ink Peak, Xu Changshou told Ouyang Qingze some trivial matters, then activated the formation of the Taoist temple and went into seclusion.

Xu Changshou sat cross-legged on the futon, and with a thought, he activated the Time Heart Talisman, then took the Golden Spirit Pill and refined it.

Time passed quickly.

One day two years later.

Crack!

The golden elixir in Xu Changshou's dantian suddenly cracked again, and endless spiritual energy from heaven and earth rushed into the crack.

After a few days, the crack healed, and two dan patterns appeared on Xu Changshou's golden elixir. At the same time, the golden elixir changed from the size of a mung bean to the size of a soybean.

He clearly felt that the spiritual energy in his body was more vigorous than before.

Xu Changshou opened his eyes and looked at the golden elixir in the storage bag. There were more than 230 left.

Calculating the time, more than two years have passed.

When using the time heart talisman, Xu Changshou has practiced for more than 20 years.

"Continue!"

Xu Changshou took out a golden elixir and threw it into the air, continuing to practice.

Xu Changshou came out of retreat only after all the golden elixir was refined.

Xu Changshou calculated the time, and it took four years for this retreat.

If it was Li Ling'er, forty years would be enough for her to break through the middle stage of the golden elixir directly. Unfortunately, Xu Changshou did not have such good qualifications.

Although his golden elixir did not crack again, it was not far from the third crack.

Xu Changshou secretly estimated that at this speed, he would be able to break through the middle stage of the golden elixir in another five years.

Of course, a normal five years means that Xu Changshou's actual cultivation time is fifty years.

After coming out of retreat, Xu Changshou went to Huang Tianlang to collect his salary. The salary for four years was 1,200 middle-grade spirit stones.

Adding the original 300, he only had 1,500 middle-grade spirit stones on him at this time.

Not enough!
