"Name?"
"Lu Huaiben"
"Where are you from?"
"Yuanzhao Kingdom Thousand Mountains people."
Hey, he's still a fellow countryman!
Luo Chen kowtowed at Immortal Bean and raised his eyebrows. He was also from the Yuanzhao Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, the man hanging on the shelf opposite is also from his hometown.
Mi Shuhua glared at Luo Chen, then motioned to Sikong Shoujia to continue asking.
Lu Huaiben on the iron shelf has been tortured for a whole night, and was taken care of by various underhanded means, and is now dying.
Therefore, almost all questions are answered.
Sikong Shoujia continued to ask, "I said which force do you come from?"
"No power, just casual cultivators, living in Snow Lotus Market."
"What's your big brother's name?"
"The eldest brother's name is Dan Xiu. He is also a casual cultivator. We usually make a living by hunting monsters."
"Since you are hunting monsters, why do you want to rob and kill our hall master? Tell me, is it someone who instigated it?"
"No, I just heard that Pill Refiner is very rich. We plan to make a big fortune before leaving."
"You still dare to lie. It seems you haven't suffered enough!"
Sikong Shoujia flashed a sharp look, and the three Silver Needle that were originally inserted into Lu Huaiben's head suddenly sank a little.
"Ahhhh..."
Lu Huaiben, who was dying, suddenly began to tremble violently, like a fish jumping before death.
Sikong Shoujia's hands were empty for a moment, and Silver Needle floated up for a minute.
Lu Huaiben gasped for air, like a drowning person taking in fresh air.
"Stop pricking, don't prick, please."
Tears and snot, accompanied by blood, flowed down uncontrollably.
Lu Huaiben cried and shouted, "We really just want to pass by and get a vote, no one is instructing us."
"Nonsense, Pill Dust Master's whereabouts are elusive, and Pill Hall is almost never seen. How could you be such a coincidence and just hit him? There must be a tip-off, who is it?"
"No, really not. We learned through a female cultivator named Yuan Xiaoyue that Pill Dust Master would deliver a batch of goods to her every month, and we calculated that it was during these days."
Yuan Xiaoyue?
Sikong Shoujia turned his head and looked at Luo Chen.
At this moment, Luo Chen also frowned and sent a message to Sikong Shoujia.
"Continue to ask, what is the relationship between Yuan Xiaoyue and them, and why did you tell him this information?"
Under Sikong Shoujia's questioning, Lu Huaiben sobbed and said, "We bought all her Immortal Bean and asked her if she still had it. She said she would have it in two days."
Everyone was stunned, and Luo Chen's face froze even more.
Damn, if you are so smart, why don't you take the postgraduate entrance examination?
"Okay, let me ask you another question. Your boss's name is Dan Xiu, right? Where is his residence in Great River Market? Where does he live in Snow Lotus Market?"
"I'm warning you, you must tell the truth, otherwise I, Soul Severing Needle, will have to give you two sets."
A thick Silver Needle was held in the hands of Sikong Shoujia with obsession.
Lu Huaiben trembled all over, his eyes full of horror.
He quickly told the boss's location one by one, and even added a few possible places later.
That's all I've asked, and there's nothing more to ask.
Mi Shuhua and Luo Chen got up and walked outside.
"Elder Si Kong, please ask for another two days to see if there is any more information."
"Little old man, I know."
Sikong Shoujia smiled ferociously, took out a handful of Silver Needle from his body, and stared at Lu Huaiben like a little sheep.
Even if a monk doesn't specialize in physical training, he is still far stronger than a mortal. He has something to play with.
Listening to the shrill sounds coming from the dungeon behind, Luo Chen shook his body.
The moment Sikong Shoujia went down to the execution ground in person, he almost thought he saw Rong Momo.
Isn't this little old man usually very kind?
"Gang leader, is this how we usually interrogate prisoners?"
"Yes, the original Mountain Shattering Gang had Punishment Hall. Later, I felt it was not very good, so it was abolished. Before the abolition, Elder Si Kong served as the leader of the Punishment Hall for a period of time. How about it, his skills are not bad. As soon as he took action, the man poured beans through a bamboo tube and said everything."
Luo Chen shook his head quickly, "Isn't that what I said? Shouldn't you Foundation Establishment Cultivator have some means like Soul Searching Art, Soul Bewitching Art?"
After these words were spoken, Luo Chen clearly noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere.
Looking from the side, he found Mi Shuhua looking at him in surprise.
"Where did you hear this?"
Luo Chen replied cautiously, "Rogue Cultivator Market, everyone said it when they were bragging."
Mi Shuhua shook his head, "Whether it is Soul Searching Art or Soul Bewitching Art, they are all evil methods. In our Jade Cauldron Domain, and even Far Eastern Six Domains, they are strictly prohibited spells."
"Really? I don't believe it!" Luo Chen said confidently, "Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion Those fairies, I heard they are very good at it!"
"Haha, that's another method."
Mi Shuhua smiled slightly.
The two walked along and finally came out of the tunnel.
At this time, the night had passed and the sky was already bright.
He came back in the middle of the night last night. He chased for a long time, but he didn't catch the Dan Xiu of Qi Refining Ninth Layer.
Water Escape Talisman is not a popular product, but the genuine Five Elements Escape Technique--Water Escape Technique.
In Five Elements Escape Technique, the most basic escape techniques are all Tier 2 spells.
Once deployed, it can reach within a hundred miles in an instant.
In addition, Dan Xiu came from Snow Lotus Market, and most of the people there are good at hiding. Mi Shuhua searched for half a night, but he really couldn't catch him.
The man's spiritual sense was so keen that he almost sensed the danger, so he activated Water Escape Talisman regardless of the cost.
He even did not hesitate to exchange injuries with Liu Qiang and suffered a knife attack.
The two stood under the eaves, watching the snowflakes falling.
"I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter, but for now, we can rule out the instigation of several major forces. It should be just Robber Cultivator!"
Robber Cultivator can also be linked to innocence!
"Is it possible that Gao Tingyuan is targeting me?" Luo Chen suddenly mentioned his name.
Mi Shuhua thought for a while and shook his head.
"It shouldn't be him. After all, I already said hello to Wang Haichao last time."
"And to tell you the truth, if Jade Marrow Pill sells to other Marketplace in the future, we will also cooperate with Great River Gang. He will not kill the goose that lays the egg."
Luo Chen sneered, "This is your Foundation Establishment Cultivator's idea, but it has nothing to do with Gao Tingyuan."
"What you said makes some sense!" Mi Shuhua thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll say hello to Wang Haichao again and ask him to pay attention to Gao Tingyuan. Regardless of whether it's him or not, danger will always be nipped in the cradle."
"With your words, I feel at ease."
Luo Chen yawned, waved his hands and was about to leave. Before leaving, he seemed to have remembered something.
"Gang Leader, the weather is getting cold, Pill Hall those monks are not having a good life."
After saying that, he left grandly, and with him, there were four more monks.
All of them are tall and powerful, and their realms are quite good. The lowest ones are Qi Refining Seventh Layer.
When Liu Qiang returns from recovery, his bodyguard team will grow to five.
When I go out with five bodyguards from Late Qi Refining Stage, I ask Great River Market who has such treatment!
Mi Shuhua stood under the eaves, still thinking about something.
There were footsteps behind him, and he asked without looking back, "Ping'er, is something wrong?"
Mi Junping said excitedly, "Sikong Shoujia sent over the account book of the Pill Hall last month. I found that more than four thousand Jade Marrow Pill were refined last month. Among them, Mid-Grade Jade Marrow Pill, as many as one thousand two hundred!"
Mi Shuhua was startled for a moment, then showed a look of ecstasy.
More than a thousand pieces of Mid-Grade Jade Marrow Pill, ten pieces in a bottle, a bottle of Spirit Stone worth fifty yuan, that is more than five thousand pieces of Spirit Stone.
If you add those Low-Grade Jade Marrow Pill...
After deducting many material costs and personnel costs, he Mi Shuhua can earn at least two thousand Spirit Stone!
And this is just one month's income!
After persisting for a few years, he even had the confidence to buy a defensive type Magic Treasure.
Even if you don't buy the training resources for defense Magic Treasure, Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment to Late-Stage Foundation Establishment, there is almost no need to worry too much.
And as Luo Chen becomes more and more familiar with the refining of Jade Marrow Pill, I am afraid that the profits will be more and more in the future.
"Sure enough, investing in Luo Chen at all costs was the most correct decision."
"From the time I first learned that he was the one who refined the Mid-Grade Pill, I knew that he Luo Chen would be a noble person on my path of cultivation!"
Listening to the old father talking to himself almost losing his temper.
Mi Junping couldn't help but ask, "Luo Chen Is it really that important?"
"Ping'er, you must remember that Pill Refiner will always be the most valuable talent among Cultivation World!"
"Don't offend, don't let him have a negative view of you, let alone have any conflicts."
"Even if there is a conflict, either resolve it immediately, or resolve that Pill Refiner immediately at all costs."
Mi Junping opened his mouth, intending to refute.
But thinking about the benefits that Pill Hall could bring last month, I am speechless.
After the ecstasy, Mi Shuhua gradually calmed down.
That income is not so easy to obtain. He still needs to pay some benefits to others.
"Ping'er, please send an invitation to the Jade Cauldron Sword Pavilion for me, and invite a distinguished guest to a banquet at Zhong Ding Restaurant tomorrow night."
"In addition, contact Nangong Family. They are a family that has just moved from Snow Lotus Market and are very familiar with it. I need to know specific information about a person named Dan Xiu."
"I'm going to Great River Gang later, please let someone notify Flood Dragon Hall Wang Yuan and ask him to accompany me."
After talking for a long time, he seemed to still have something to say. Looking at his daughter's eyes, a good idea came to his mind.
In Mi Junping's shocked eyes, he mentioned something.
"Your Daoist partner has been dead for many years. Do you want to consider getting married?"
Luo Chen still doesn't know that someone else is planning a marriage for him.
With a few bodyguards, he swaggered back to Inner City.
It was still early, so he went to the Yuan Family first.
When settling last month's income, I found that Spirit Stone was fifty yuan more than before.
"I met a nice person and said Immortal Bean is delicious and I want to buy more Immortal Bean."
"I said we can't sell them all to him, there are still some old customers."
"He didn't want to. He would rather increase the price and buy it all. The extra fifty yuan Spirit Stone was given by him."
Luo Chen looked complicated. They really went to great lengths to rob him!
After sighing with emotion, Luo Chen began to divide the accounts.
Gross income 700 Spirit Stone.
Now instead of paying a fixed salary, he would give Yuan Xiaoyue. In addition to the 30 yuan fixed salary, he would have to calculate profit dividends after deducting costs.
As for Immortal Bean, the cost of things like popcorn?
No matter how hard you calculate, it won't exceed one hundred yuan Spirit Stone.
The profit is high!
It is precisely because of the high profits that it attracts so many followers.
That is to say, the market is limited and it is difficult to expand the scale. Otherwise, Luo Chen will want to open a processing factory for himself in addition to the Pill Hall to specialize in producing these things.
"Here, take your 30 yuan fixed salary, plus 30 yuan in dividends!"
Yuan Xiaoyue took the money Spirit Stone excitedly.
She is no longer a naive child who doesn't understand anything.
I have been hanging out on White Stone Plaza for a long time and deal with many customers every day. I also know that casual cultivators generally earn a lot of money.
Sixty yuan a month Spirit Stone, which is more than almost all Early Qi Refining Stage monks.
Those Qi Refining Mid-Stage Cultivator who have no special skills cannot earn so much.
It is even said that the maids and chores in sect shops only have a basic salary of fifty yuan Spirit Stone.
With these Spirit Stone, her future training resources are also guaranteed, and Qi Refining Fourth Layer is just around the corner!
Seeing her excitement, Luo Chen shook his head and asked:
"How did you sell the milk tea I sent you in the middle of the month?"
Hearing this, Yuan Xiaoyue was not so excited.
"It's not easy to sell, it's too expensive. And when customers buy things, they prefer Yellow Pear Wine to milk tea."
Hearing what she said, Luo Chen was a little confused.
The milk tea formula I developed by myself uses tea leaves produced by several century-old tea trees that Medicine Hall found in the mountains. The milk source comes from the Beast Hall female Yellow Cattle.
Plus a little bit of spiritual grass stolen from the raw materials of Jade Marrow Pill.
He took a bite and it tasted very good, right?
Selling Spirit Stone for five yuan, those people didn't buy it?
Damn it, the wild boar must be unable to eat fine chaff.
Since you don't like the high-end Sexy Tea, let's lower the price later and make it Mixue Bingcheng!
In an instant, Luo Chen had another plan in mind.
From the Storage Bag, he took out the Immortal Bean, popcorn, and beef jerky that the monk Pill Hall had fried separately for him.
"These are for next month."
"Besides, I may be very busy in the future and have no time to deliver goods. Can you recognize this old man's face? What is your name?"
Luo Chen turned around and stared at the new bodyguard.
The man's face turned red, "My name is Dongfang Liang. Besides, I just look old, but I'm actually only in my fifties."
With a raised brow, Luo Chen patted his shoulder, "Beautiful boy, you will be responsible for delivering goods for me from now on. She is Yuan Xiaoyue, you should know her, she is the daughter of your former Medicine Hall boss Leaping Stream Tiger. Now, she is my partner, the boss lady of Chen Yue Snack Stall. Seeing her is like seeing me, do you understand?"
Looking at the very old handsome boy, his face turned red.
Under the gaze of Luo Chen, he lowered his head.
"Got it."
"Don't be so aggrieved. You won't suffer any loss if you follow me."
Yes, you won't suffer any loss.
Liu Qiang is still lying at home recovering from his injuries. He was almost beaten to death.
Several bodyguards looked helpless. Who asked the gang leader to give the death order and told them to take good care of Luo Chen.
After Luo Chen and the others left, Yuan Xiaoyue also planned to go out and open the business.
As I was passing by an alley, I was pulled over by an aunt.
"Xiao Yue, you must pay attention to safety when entering and exiting!"
"Aunt, what's wrong?"
"I just heard some male monks walking over. Someone asked the leader Little White whether he had a crush on you."
Yuan Xiaoyue was startled, and a blush appeared on his face unconsciously.
"Auntie, don't talk nonsense, that's my boss."
"That's your boss?" The aunt was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand, "That's not important. Anyway, you have to let your grandpa take care of you. I think that guy may look good, but he might be full of bad ideas on the inside."
Is Brother Luo full of bad ideas?
Yuan Xiaoyue couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, it seemed like it was really true.
"Why are you attracted to her? Yuan Xiaoyue is not an adult yet. Don't talk nonsense."
"But Hall Master, a woman becomes an adult at the age of fifteen!"
"I asked you to talk back!"
Luo Chen jumped up and slapped Dongfang Liang on the shoulder. This guy is obviously so old, but why is he still so tall? Just like Wang Yuan, he must be over two meters tall!
"She is my partner. There is no way to mess with emotions when it comes to business matters!"
"Anyway, you should take more care of her if nothing happens in the future. After all, dad is dead and grandpa is also disabled. It's so pitiful."
"Oh, okay." Dongfang Liang responded aggrievedly.
Luo Chen Why are you instigating him and bullying him?
Because this guy is the only one in the bodyguard team, Qi Refining Seventh Layer, who is in the same realm as himself and is easy to bully!
"Okay, just send it here, you can go back!"
Several bodyguards dispersed, and Luo Chen looked at Dongfang Liang who hadn't left in confusion.
"Why don't you go back?"
Dongfang Liang said aggrievedly, "I live here, in the big courtyard in front."
Aren't there mostly female and poor cultivators in this area?
After looking at Dongfang Liang carefully, Luo Chen sighed, "It turns out you're not that good at all!"
After saying that, he walked into the alley ahead with his hands behind his back.
Back in the courtyard, it was mid-morning and there was basically no one around.
There was a medicinal smell in the yard, which made Luo Chen take a sniff.
"Could it be that she knew I was intercepted and killed yesterday, so my sister-in-law cooked some medicine for me?"
With the thought that there is no such thing, Luo Chen closed the door tightly.
The drowsiness has not come, but the addiction to taking stock has come.
Storage Bag, Open!
It's not his Storage Bag, it's the Storage Bag named Lu Huaiben.
Crash, a lot of things were piled on the ground.
Luo Chen's mouth suddenly opened wide.
After a long time, he said something sincerely.
"I'm sorry for calling you poor people. I was careless."
I saw that the ground was crowded with at least a thousand pieces of Spirit Stone. The pile really made Luo Chen swallow his saliva.
In addition to Spirit Stone, there are five pieces of Magic Tool. Most of them are inferior, but there are also two pieces of Mid-Grade Magic Tool.
They are a half-meter-long white board and a pair of bells.
From the hill-like pile, Luo Chen rummaged through it again, and actually asked him to find a set of formation flags.
Because they were scattered formation flags and not at the final stage individually, they were not noticed at first.
At this moment, when it was assembled and combined with the array plate, it was discovered that it was a set of Spirit-Hiding Array with mainly concealment functions.
No wonder Lu Huaiben and this group of Robber Cultivator were not discovered at the first time. It was not until they got closer that Luo Chen relied on the spiritual foundation beyond ordinary people and the deep-rooted eyes Spirit Eye Art to barely notice the clues.
Robber Cultivator has the Concealment Array method, which is very reasonable!
"What a good thing. It's just convenient for me to hide Spirit Vein Cave."
Hehe, it's like being dozed off and encountering a pillow.
Then, Luo Chen stared at the pile of hills and became worried.
Yes, all the above things cannot actually be piled up into a hill.
What really piles up into a hill are things that Luo Chen is very familiar with.
"Immortal Bean!"
The Immortal Bean they bought has not been finished yet!
Now it has been returned to Luo Chen himself.
Luo Chen was so moved, what kind of warmth is this from Cultivation World!
Spend Spirit Stone to buy Immortal Bean from your partner and ask for information about yourself.
Then he came to deliver Magic Tool, a robe, Spirit Stone, and a few bottles of unknown elixirs. He even gave back the Immortal Bean he had paid for.
So what to do now?
Take it out and sell it!
That's it, you can't let others know, otherwise they will think that my Chen Yue Snack Stall is a black shop.
After sighing for a moment, Luo Chen organized these things into categories.
The bell should be a sonic weapon. Its specific power is not suitable for testing at home.
I don't know what this whiteboard is, but it looks a bit like a flying Magic Tool?
But the speed is probably not fast. When Lu Huaiben escaped, this Magic Tool was not used.
The other three Low-Grade Magic Tool, two Flying Sword, and a small pot.
"They should have robbed it, otherwise monk Late Stage wouldn't have carried Low-Grade Magic Tool with him, so he would have taken the time to sell it to the Merit Hall!"
"This little pot... looks familiar!"
The memory of Luo Chen goes back to the few times when he entered Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
He remembered that there seemed to be a small pot like this placed next to the Faint Smoke Sparse Rain Pavilion. What was it called?
"Wave Swallowing Sea Gathering Pot?"
Luo Chen When I think of it, it seems to be this name.
The specific function is similar to Storage Bag, but the effect is single and it can only hold liquids.
And the capacity is totally unworthy of its name.
Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion likes this. The lower-level Magic Tool is, the more fancy the name is.
What Faint Smoke Sparse Rain Pavilion is, it's actually a range hood.
What is Cloud-Scented Lotus Plate? It is actually Low-Grade Flying Tool, which is extremely slow.
This Wave Swallowing Sea Gathering Pot can actually hold up to several hundred kilograms of liquid.
It is mainly used by some monks to store liquids that are not easy to store.
"Just like monk Essence Blood!"
Inexplicably, Luo Chen thought of the main material on Blood Fiend Pill Recipe.
Shaking his head vigorously, Luo Chen put aside that dangerous thought.
"Actually, it's absolutely possible. It can be used to develop my milk tea business!"
Luo Chen has a right heart and is fair and aboveboard in doing business!
After Magic Tool put them away, Luo Chen looked at the bottles of elixirs. He was sure that they were not Great River Market's style.
It seems to be the special elixir from Snow Lotus Market. If you don't know clearly, don't take it rashly.
Next, Luo Chen rubbed his hands with excitement on his face.
"It's time for the most exciting number Spirit Stone again."
"After working hard for Pill Refining for a month, I got a thousand and eight hundred yuan Spirit Stone. How can you get rich so quickly like this?"
"One piece, two pieces..."
