Keeping a low profile in the world of cultivating immortals

Wu Tao followed Wu Zhongxing to Yuexian Tower.

Yuexian Tower is a restaurant. It is said that the owner of this property is the descendant of a disciple of Wuquan Mountain. Although the ancestor is no longer here, he still has some connections in Wuquan Mountain.

Therefore, Yuexian Tower is located in the city, and even the immortal cultivators on the patrol team dare not eat or drink tea here without paying.

In the private room, Wu Zhongxing stretched out his hand to sit down and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Li, please sit down!"

"Thank you!" Wu Tao sat down as he was told.

Wu Zhongxing called the waiter who works as a bartender. Like the waiter, he is new to Qi refining and may not even be able to reach the first level of Qi refining in the future. Therefore, he is willing to wait in the restaurant to beg for a meal.

The waiter, with a white towel draped over his right shoulder, came forward respectfully and said, "Master Wu, what do you want to order?"

Wu Zhongxing obviously came to Yuexian Tower often. He didn’t need to look at the hanging wooden menu. He said familiarly: "A pot of first-grade spring rain green, and then a portion of explosive rice, a portion of dried beef and monster meat, and a portion of side dishes. Tea spirit fruit.”

"Okay, Master Wu, please wait a moment." Xiao Er quickly went to get ready.

Wu Tao then looked at Wu Zhongxing and said, "Fellow Daoist Wu, just tell me what you want to do to make a fortune."

However, Wu Zhongxing gave up and said: "Friend Li Dao, don't be impatient, there are still people coming."

Wu Tao frowned slightly when he saw this, but stopped asking and waited quietly. When the waiter brought the dried melon pulp, Wu Zhongxing poured him tea. He immediately drank the tea and ate popcorn rice and beef jerky. .

This popcorn is popcorn, but it is popcorn. It tastes crunchy, but after popping, the spiritual energy leaks out a lot, and it is not as full as if it were cooked directly.

Wu Tao felt that this method was very wasteful, but after all, it was quite delicious, crispy and fragrant.

The beef jerky made by Niu Yao Beast is more flavorful, chewy, and full of meat flavor. It does not require any condiments and spices. It is already dozens of times more delicious than ordinary beef jerky in the previous life.

After drinking two cups of tea, two people came into the private room.

There is an old man with gray hair, but the skin on his face is not loose, but elastic. This is the benefit of cultivating immortals. He has a serious face, and there is a middle-aged man, short in stature and unattractive in appearance. Both of them have a spark of fire in their bodies. The smell of stone.

Wu Zhongxing quickly introduced the identities of these two people to Wu Tao: "Fellow Daoist Li, let me introduce to you. This is President Xie Tao of Tongzhu San Weapon Master Association. President Xie is a first-level and sixth-level weapon refiner." Master. This is Vice President Fang Ming, a first-level and fifth-level weapon refiner. President Xie, Vice-President Fang, this is Fellow Daoist Li Mo, who is a first-level and fourth-level weapon refiner at such a young age. "

Wu Tao looked at Xie Tao and Fang Ming and said politely: "Thank you, Master Fang."

Xie Tao glanced at Wu Tao, showed an affirmative look, and nodded: "Yes, very young. At such an age, fellow Daoist Li can refine a first-level and fourth-level robe. He is really formidable."

Wu Tao said humbly: "Thank you for your compliments, Master Xie. As we all know, magic robes are simpler than other magic weapons, so this is nothing. There are many disciples of Wuquan Mountain Weapon Refining Hall." At my age, there are people who are better at refining weapons than me."

After saying that, Wu Tao looked at Wu Zhongxing and said, "Fellow Daoist Wu is also a weapon refiner from the Tongzhu San Artillery Masters Association?"

Wu Zhongxing nodded after hearing the words and said: "Yes, in fact, I came here to invite you, Daoyou Li, to join our Refiner Association. President Xie and Vice President Fang both saw the small spiritual light cover robe and the spirit-absorbing magic that Li Daoyou refined. I feel that Fellow Daoist Li is fully qualified to join."

Xie Tao and Fang Ming nodded in unison.

It turns out that this is a good thing... For other casual cultivators, it may be a good thing to join this kind of association and help each other, but for Wu Tao, he does not want to join any organization formed by casual cultivators.

First of all, once you join an organization, you will inevitably have a lot of chores and you will not be able to concentrate on your own affairs.

Secondly, casual cultivators have no background, no weapon refining techniques, no high-level weapon refining inheritance, no protection, no need for anything, so what's the point of joining.

If you want to join, you have to join a big immortal sect like Wuquan Mountain, which has everything.

Seeing that Wu Tao was deep in thought and seemed undecided, Wu Zhongxing said quickly: "Friend Daoist Li, I think that as a casual cultivator, you understand the difficulties of casual cultivators. We established the casual cultivator's weapon refiner association for this purpose." Mutual help. Moreover, for a young and promising weapon refiner like Daoyou Li, I believe that President Xie and Vice President Fang will give their advice to help Daoyou Li’s weapon refining skills to a higher level."

"Moreover, there are many secrets on refining first-level intermediate magic weapons in the meeting. It is not impossible for Fellow Daoist Li to take a look at them in the future."

Xie Tao Fangming nodded and said that as long as Wu Tao is willing to join, he will do his best to cultivate him. Xie Tao even said that as long as he joins, it is not impossible to give him the position of president in a few decades.

When Xie Tao made such a promise, Fang Ming opened his mouth and hesitated, but in the end he said nothing.

Mutual benefit, high-level weapon refining master guidance, first-level intermediate magic weapon refining secrets, and the position of president, these are bound to be exciting for any weapon training master, but Wu Tao is different. He only hears the benefits. His life experience in the past and present life told him that there is no pie in the sky. How could there be only benefits but no obligations?

Thinking of this, Wu Tao asked: "Fellow Daoist Wu, if I join, what obligations will I have?"

Wu Zhongxing quickly understood the meaning of the new word "obligation" and said: "Friend Li Dao, when you join the association, we are one family, one family, and we should treat the association as our home..."

Finally, Wu Tao understood. Sure enough, it was impossible to have benefits without obligations. The association opened a weapon-refining shop to make magical tools for casual practitioners. He would go to the shop for ten days every month.

This alone eliminated Wu Tao's idea of ​​joining.

What's more, there are other things. It's not easy to get the refining secrets of the first-level intermediate magic weapon. You have to work hard for the association and complete tasks to get it.

All in all, joining the association means working for the association.

Wu Tao cupped his hands towards the three of them and said, "Thank you for your respect, but now I really don't want to join any association."

Xie Tao looked at Wu Tao with his turbid old eyes and comforted him: "Young man, you still don't understand the hardships of being a non-commercial cultivator. Every step is difficult. Don't forget that we vogue cultivators are protected by the outer gate of Wuquan Mountain, but in fact, even if we don't have our lives, Worries can also stump you in many other places. But if you encounter difficulties after joining the association, the association will help you."

Wu Tao shook his head and said: "Thank you for your concern, master, but after careful consideration, I have decided not to join your association. Please forgive me."

At this time, Fang Ming, who had been silent until now, snorted coldly: "I don't know what's good or bad!"

Wu Tao immediately looked at Fang Ming and said with an unhappy expression: "Vice President Fang, there are no regulations in Wuquan Mountain. I must join your association, right? Why, Vice President Fang still wants to use force?"

Xie Tao scolded Fang Ming: "Fang Ming, watch your words."

After saying that, he apologized to Wu Tao and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, we will never force any casual cultivator to join our association. Please rest assured, fellow Taoist."

The atmosphere was already unpleasant, and Wu Tao was too lazy to stay any longer. He handed over his hands and said, "Thank you, President, Fellow Daoist Wu, I have something important to do, so I'll take my leave first." After that, he left the private room directly.

Arriving on the first floor, Wu Tao found the waiter and asked, "How many spiritual stones do we have on the table?"

The waiter said: "Please wait a moment, let me do the calculations... Spring Rain Emerald Green has eleven low-grade spiritual stones, exploded spiritual rice has one low-grade spiritual stone, cow monster air-dried meat has three low-grade spiritual stones, and tea spirit fruit has one low-grade spiritual stone. , a total of sixteen low-grade spiritual stones."

That's it, sixteen pieces of low-grade spirit stones... Wu Tao painfully took out four pieces of low-grade spirit stones and said, "For my share and theirs, you can ask them to give it to you."

After that, Wu Tao muttered, "I eat the most, so I won't suffer any loss" and left Yuexian Building, leaving the waiter with a confused look on his face.

In the private room, Xie Tao looked at Fang Ming and said: "Fang Ming, how many times have I told you to change your fiery temper? The two books I gave you "How should you behave when facing the disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Sect?" Attitude" and "The Language Art of Communicating with Immortal Cultivators Who Are High in Your Strength", have you read it?"

Fang Ming was dissatisfied and said: "What's so interesting about this book? It gives me a headache. Besides, that guy is not from the cultivating sect, nor is he stronger than me..."

Xie Tao was too lazy to talk to him anymore, but looked at Wu Zhongxing and sighed: "I'm just afraid that other associations will invite Li Mo. What if Li Mo joins other associations..."

There was competition between associations, and he did not want Li Mo to join other associations.

Xie Tao pondered for a moment and continued: "If Li Mo joins another association, then... let's find someone to kill him... It's just a pity that such a promising young man lost his life in one wrong step. , it can be seen that there are many disasters on the road to immortality..."

Xie Tao was compassionate and felt extremely sorry for Li Mo.

Wu Zhongxing's expression changed slightly.

Fang Ming said: "I know the person, and I will ask someone to kill him when the time comes."

Xie Tao glared at him and said, "Why are you so anxious? Isn't it already this far? Xiao Wu, you still need to continue to persuade Li Mo and try your best to win Li Mo over. It will be of great help to our association."

Wu Zhongxing said firmly: "President Xie, don't worry, give me some time, I will definitely convince fellow Daoist Li."

After that, the three of them left the private room and went to the account. Wu Zhongxing clearly understood the prices of the dishes in Yuexianlou and took out 16 low-grade spiritual stones to pay the bill. The waiter found his four low-grade spiritual stones and said, "Wu Qi Master, the guest who came with you just now paid his own bill."

Wu Zhongxing took the spirit stone with an inexplicable expression on his face.
