this growth

However, the male monk, seeing the man who sells the alchemy leave so quickly, suddenly felt a little regretful in his heart, immediately hung a "stop" sign in his grid and chased him out, but how could he catch up with the unicorn? Che's pepper star anise?I only looked at the buttocks of the car, and then I went back disgruntled.

When he returned to the industry, he didn't need to take the "Stop" card - in order to buy these two pills, he had already spent all his capital, and when he had no money, how could he greet the monks who sold things later?So he told Shangfeng and planned to go back first.

"You are courageous. You used the cost of purchasing materials for three months to receive a pill with unknown efficacy. Do you think you are Ma Tianyan?" When he passed by, Shangfeng was sitting on a stool behind drinking tea, listening to him After briefly explaining the reason, he raised his brows and revealed a sarcastic smile on his face.

Ma Tianyan - the founder of Baolu Auction House and one of the initiators of this Yintian Auction, with a pair of eyes to see things very accurately, not to mention collecting a lot of good things, and selling them every time for a good price Price, because he always has good things in his hands, has a very good relationship with various gods, and he is a role model for them in the auctioneer industry.

Of course, his real name is not Ma Tianyan, but because of his good eyesight, he is called "Tianyan".

When Shangfeng mentioned this character at this time, he was naturally mocking him.

The corner of his mouth froze, and the male monk didn't say a word.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Shangfeng drank a few more sips of tea and stayed for a while. When he saw someone approaching from the front, he smiled and said to the person: "Listen, this Ma Tao thinks his surname is Ma. I was related to Ma Tianyan, and spent three months to receive a pill with unknown efficacy, no, the capital is gone, and I can’t come anymore..."

The man just laughed.

Seeing that Ma Tao kept his head down no matter what he said, Shangfeng let him go and said "Let's go" to him, and didn't talk to anyone who came, just continued to look at the Here come the tabloids.

And the male monk named Ma Tao stepped back and left.

He was used to Shangfeng's attitude.

Speaking of which, among the two of them, he was the first to enter the auction house, and when he came in after Shangfeng today, he was the one who taught him, probably because of different ways and not conspiring with each other. He wanted to turn a very valuable material into a worthless thing, and bought it with very few spirit stones, but he stopped him. Since then, the other party has hated him. Repeatedly had trouble with him.

No, the two of them are not in a master-student relationship, so it is inappropriate to say that they are teachers.

But fortunately there is no master-student relationship, he really doesn't like what that person did.On the contrary, this method seems to work, no, the opponent is now his own peak.

Thinking in a mess in his heart, after Ma Tao left the purchasing company, he visited several families one after another—one was a colleague, and the others were people he had known over the years. There were bounty hunters and alchemists. Because we know each other about buying and selling materials, and the reason is basically that the other party sold the price at a low price. After he pointed out, he sold it with a more suitable method and price. But they didn’t suffer, and because of this, they became good friends. After many years, they are no longer the junior bounty hunters and alchemists who were jerky at the beginning and were almost sold for cheap materials. own up.

"Your pill... I really don't know it. It's made from thirteen kinds of first-grade immortal grasses and five kinds of first-grade fairy flowers... Excuse me, but I guess from Fangzi, I think it's more appropriate for you to ask Fellow Daoist Zhang Ling. "He first visited a bounty hunter named He Qing, and when he saw the Dan he took out, the other party suggested so.

"Why don't you sell me one of these pills? Hehe, don't sell it to me at the purchase price, double it. I just made a big order and I just want to buy something. I really like this unknown Dan." Interested..." The other party continued.

Ma Tao quickly put away the pill—not because he was afraid that the other party would snatch it, but because he was afraid that the other party would force him to buy it. He knew: He Qing is a sword repairer, and he is a monk of the ascetic system who does not want to rely too much on external forces. If he bought Dan, he must be afraid that he would lose too much if he bought it.

"Don't, I'm still pointing at this Dan to turn over!" Ma Tao said with a smile, "Then I'll ask Fellow Daoist Zhang Ling again."

Speaking of which, he was the one who introduced Zhang Ling to He Qing. He met Zhang Ling first, and then He Qing. After introducing the two, it was to make it easier for He Qing to collect valuable materials and sell them directly to Zhang Ling, or Zhang Ling was asked to make alchemy on his behalf. It was very convenient for the two of them, but—he was fine here.

Of course, as his friends, the two would still sell him some pill pills from time to time.

Hearing that he hadn't gone to Zhang Ling's place yet, He Qing simply went with him to find him.

The two of them are now renting in Yong Village, which is convenient, but the reason why Ma Tao came to find him first is because his house is closer.

Zhang Ling's house was really not far from his place, and they arrived within a few steps. When they passed, Zhang Ling happened to be at home, not working yet, but drinking.

Hearing the purpose of the two people's visit, Zhang Ling immediately put down the wine glass, took two more glasses for the two friends, and picked up Dan to look at it himself.

He looked at it for a long time even after asking and sniffing, but—"I'm so sorry, I can't see where this pill came from, and I can't deduce it from the prescription."

Ma Tao then said sullenly: "I was also impulsive. It's strange to say, now that I think about how I looked when I received the pills, I'm like a ghost. I'm not used to being so impulsive. If you don't know, I probably Really received a bad pill."

↑

Zhang Ling is now an alchemist who is honored as the guest of honor at all major auctions. Not only does he offer alchemy for each auction, but he also helps the auction house to appraise the received alchemy on weekdays. The reason why Ma Tao stubbornly did not look for him Shangfeng Zhangyan also relied on his few good friends who are doing well now, especially Zhang Ling.

Hearing the remorse in his words, Zhang Ling said, "I think you may have received a good pill, but I have seen and heard all the pills in the "Danpu", although I don't know how to do it." Let’s practice it, I don’t even recognize your pill, which means that it is no longer in the “Pan Pu” at all, and a considerable part of the pills that are not in the “Pan Pu” are secret recipes.”

It's just that the worthless secret recipe is also a secret recipe—thinking of this, Zhang Ling was a little worried for his friend.

"You know me. The reason why I come to this auction to make alchemy is to see all kinds of alchemy. Now the alchemy in your hand is a brand new recipe for me. Why don't you give up what you love and sell it to me ?” Zhang Ling smiled, and said the same thing as He Qing.

But Ma Tao was amused by him: "One or two of you both..."

"Don't block my way of making money, I can't sell you this pill." Knowing that this was because his friend was worried about him, Ma Tao refused to let his friend suffer, and rejected Zhang Ling with the same reason.

Next, Zhang Ling also joined them, and followed Ma Tao to visit two more people—not strangers, they also knew each other, some were introduced by Ma Tao, and some were introduced to Ma Tao by them.

Although no one knew Dan in the end, everyone got together so rarely that they stayed together in the end. In the end, the man lived in Qiong Village. The hot spring water in Qiong Village is very good, so they made an appointment to go to a hot spring winery to drink. After soaking in hot springs with wine, at the suggestion of friends living in Qiong Village, they also went to a shop called "Taobaofang" to buy the most fashionable incense and towels... and with the help of these small things, they used the most fashionable methods. After soaking back in the hot spring, He Qing and the others fell asleep in the hot spring winery drunk in the end, but Ma Tao did not.

After setting up a few friends, Ma Tao went to Taobao to buy some aromatherapy, towels and bathrobes, not for himself, but for his wife.

↑

This is already his habit, it has been like this since the two first got together, no matter where he goes, whenever he thinks there is something good or just unique, he will bring a copy for his wife.

Now he thinks the fragrance is good, but the guy in this shop is really eloquent, he heard that he was buying something for his wife, after he praised him a lot, he recommended a lot of things to him.

"Women are different from men. Of course, the male monks in our immortal world are actually very particular now. Aromatherapy towels are not enough. They also like the body cream in our shop. The body cream in our shop is excellent. It is used for beauty and beauty. After long-term use, it can delay aging and stretch wrinkles...Of course, we monks can't use these functions, but not to mention these, the smell is also very good! I smelled it when I was in the hot spring, but once I rub this moisturizer on my body, the scent can last for a day! It’s like being scented all the time!"

Being fooled by the other party's good eloquence, Ma Tao simply bought another copy of everything she recommended.

Even if this is his last money.

Before going through a hard life, he still wanted to buy something for his wife.

So, when Ma Tao went back, he was smiling, and when he saw the lady came out, he gave her the storage bag, took out the contents one by one, and introduced all the things inside to her in a gentle voice—— Ma Tao's wife took the things one by one, listened carefully to Ma Tao's various introductions, and then asked him if he had eaten and bathed after he had introduced all the items. After going to the back kitchen, he brought him a bowl of sober tea for a while.

She didn't leave after that, her husband was sitting and eating tea, and she was looking at the presents she had brought on the chair next to her. For the things her husband brought home every time, she always did this, as long as it was given to her by him, Those were all good things, and she kept them carefully.

This scene sounds very harmonious.

However - it doesn't look so harmonious.

As mentioned earlier, Ma Tao looks like a young man with a round face, but Ma Tao's wife is not, just by looking at her appearance, she is already an old woman!His white hair was gray and his face was full of wrinkles. If Ma Tao hadn't been yelling at each other, people would believe that he was Ma Tao's great-grandmother.

This is a shortcoming of the combination of monks and mortals.

Ma Tao is an immortal cultivator, but his wife is just a mortal with no immortal roots on her body. Even though Ma Tao's savings over the years have bought her various life-prolonging pills, the aging of her face cannot be stopped , she is now an old man.

"I saw that the sister-in-law Rong next door used this moisturizer, and she said that the cream is very useful." She flipped through the moisturizer in her hand and said.

"Then why don't you buy it? Rong's sister-in-law is a beauty-loving person. She said that something that is useful must be useful. You should have bought it earlier." Ma Tao also said to his wife with a smile.

Ma Tao's wife pursed her lips and smiled. Seeing her like this, the smile on Ma Tao's face became even wider: "Okay, I see, you are waiting for me to buy it as a gift for you!"

"I'm sorry madam, I didn't buy such a good moisturizer for madam earlier." He said, stood up decently, and bowed to the old woman, which is the etiquette of a scholar in the world. , just like when the two first met when they were young.

Seeing her husband like this, the smile on the lips of Ma Tao's wife deepened.

The husband and wife chatted for a while, and Ma Tao was sleepy, so he was helped into the bedroom by his wife.

The husband and wife lay side by side for a long time as usual. Ma Tao's breathing gradually stabilized, while his wife next door was breathing lightly, no change from before. Looking carefully, it was the elderly lady who opened her eyes and kept breathing. Gogou is staring at the roof, not asleep yet!

Pulling the quilt for her husband, the old woman got out of bed, rummaged through the clothes her husband had taken off, and soon found the two pills.

This is the pill that has been mentioned countless times by those people today.

The neighbors on their street are all acquaintances, and they are all the family members of the servants of the same auction house. After the men go to work during the day, the rest of the family are the ladies of Ma Tao's colleagues.

Even though she was the only mortal among these women who didn't have immortal roots, even though she seemed to be the only old woman among these people, she was generous from the beginning to the end, and she never closed the door because of her sense of age. Open, do not communicate with the people around.

Knowing the role of family members in the workplace, even if she can't help her husband, at least she can't hold him back. Therefore, she has always been generous and comfortable with her neighbors every day. Because of her freedom, don't say, Many people who looked down on her at the beginning are getting along well with her now, including the beauty-loving sister-in-law Rong next door, but there are still some people who look down on her, such as those who came to her house in the afternoon to talk.

"Oh! Miss Ma Tao, is your husband back yet? Do you know that he bought two useless pills with three months' capital?"

"You have to persuade him well! Although he earned the money in this family, he has a family to support after all. Although your Xiaozhu's fairy roots are not so good, you still have fairy roots, right? You can get them in the future through cultivation. Hua Lingshi, and you, you... Oh! You know, your man doesn't think about you, you have to think about yourself. "

……

……

Basically, when Ma Tao was looking for his old friends outside to ask about pills, their customers never stopped, and they all came to talk about the two pills he bought in the morning.

It was the malicious Shangfeng who wanted to expand the matter, and told all the subordinates about it, and those subordinates used the matter as a talking point to their own mother-in-law. That's why they came to Ma's house to visit Ma Tao's wife's women.

Some of these people are really worried, but most of them are not well-intentioned——Ms. The husband didn't mention it, and neither did she.

I know everything about my own family, what kind of person my husband is, can she know those people well?

Don't care what those people say, even if the husband really made a bad deal this time, so what?

Anyway, she would never blame him.

It's just - thinking of what one of the little ladies with whom she had a good relationship said, she opened the wooden box and frowned slightly.

"Sister-in-law, this is the end of the matter, hurry up and see if there are any spirit stones at home. Next, the most urgent thing is to quickly find a pill tester. Fortunately, Brother Ma bought two pills, and there is one more to try. It's an elixir, maybe Big Brother Ma is going to make a complete comeback this time?"

That’s right, the Tridan people.

Only then did she know that there are people who help people try the pill.

It's just that there are not many spirit stones in the family, but they are not spent on their son, most of them are spent on themselves, and the husband spends most of the family's income just to buy pills for himself every month.

What's more, even if there are enough spirit stones, I'm afraid they won't be able to find someone to test the alchemy.

I know that my husband is the most soft-tempered person. Just because the origin of the pill is unknown, he dare not let others eat it, but he must know about trying the pill. According to her treatment of her husband I understand, I am afraid that this pill will be tried by my husband in the end...

Pursing her lips together, she turned her head carefully, glanced at her sleeping husband, and saw that he was sleeping soundly, her frowning brows suddenly opened, and the drooping corners of her mouth lifted, and she actually laughed.

Those people are right. All the money in this family is earned by the husband, and the money earned is spent on the useless self. They also have a son. If there is one of them, they can go farther with the son. , that person is definitely not her.

In fact, she already had a feeling that her lifespan was coming to an end.

Probably the husband also noticed this, which made him do such an impulsive move, right?In the past, he has always been extremely stable.

I can't lose my job at the auction house, and I can't cut off the way to buy pills for myself, so my husband...

Looking through the huge black pill, she smiled deeper and deeper at the face of her husband inside the door who was the same as when she was young.

The light dimmed the wrinkles on her face. At this moment, she suddenly looked much younger. From a distance, there was a young couple inside and outside the door. The husband was inside, having a sweet dream; the wife was outside, watching He slept soundly and smiled brightly.

Just like a pair of Bi people.

Then——picking up the huge pill, the expression on the old woman's face instantly became resolute.

Even once, even once in a lifetime, she wants to really help her husband once, it's the first time, and maybe it's the last time, she wants to be a tester for her husband!

With a sip, she swallowed the pill.

***

This night is destined to be a legendary night.

I saw that the originally calm village suddenly had a strong wind, but it was not an ordinary wind, but a wind formed by spiritual energy.

The wind was surging, and all the wind and clouds finally gathered above the courtyard of Ma's house. It was thick and heavy, and it shocked all the nearby houses. Many people ran out wearing only their underwear, and then saw that incredible scene.

I saw that the heavy wind and cloud gradually turned into substance, just like the fairy flowers and grasses shining brightly in the sky and the earth. They watched the flowers and grass from sprouting to opening, and then formed a pill of spiritual energy , and turned into a human figure in an instant, and finally looked like a doll. The sound of the spiritual energy tearing was like the laughter of a baby, and finally it was thrown directly on the roof of Ma's house.

Then, the next morning, there was the explosive news that the old Ma family wife who had no immortal roots had cultivated into a Nascent Soul—Yuanying Pill!The legendary Nascent Soul Pill that can transform a mortal into a Nascent Soul and become a fairy is indeed true!

The unknown pill that Ma Tao bought with only three months of capital was Yuanying Pill!

Instead of one, he actually bought two! !
