Chapter 20
Chapter 20
The most critical place to go was thought out, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere was a little more relaxed, and the atmosphere of the discussion was much more harmonious.
Logically, the next step is the issue of raw materials.
Wan Mengchen thought for a moment and said, "I can entrust someone to buy raw materials. I usually 'purchase' a lot, and they won't be suspicious."
Several people have no doubts.
The elder brother who is usually silent is also speaking enthusiastically at this time.
"I usually like to study and grow some spiritual grass and spiritual flowers, and the effect is not bad. There is no problem in cultivating some low-level spiritual plants." The elder brother scratched the tip of his nose with some embarrassment.
"I don't care about it for a short time. If you need it in the future, you can leave this aspect to me."
Zhu Zhihan thought, no wonder the elder brother gave him two bags of spiritual seeds during the first apprenticeship ceremony.
Wan Mengchen nodded: "It can be considered, if the junior sister doesn't need it, it's also good to sell the extra."
The sixth junior brother happily counted on his fingers: "In this case, the raw materials, production, and sales are all contracted by our people?"
Wan Mengchen knocked on his head: "It's too early to be happy. These are just ideas. To make things happen, there are still many troubles to overcome."
The sixth junior brother muttered: "You hit me again, I will not grow taller!"
Zhu Zhihan smiled: "But no matter what, having a plan is a good thing."
Several people laughed for a while.
"For the sale, we should go to the Snow Mountain Secret Realm ahead of time..." Wan Mengchen looked at Zhu Zhihan, and humbly asked, "How much earlier should we go?"
Zhu Zhihan thought for a while: "Generally speaking, people will be there half a month before the opening of the secret realm. We can make it ten days earlier, and there should be a lot of people by then."
"Then it will be ten days earlier."
Wan Mengchen finally summed it up: "We have [-] days to prepare, the junior sister is responsible for the most important production, I will buy materials, the senior brother will study how to plant first, and the sixth junior brother... the sixth junior brother cheers us on."
When it came to the end, Wan Mengchen laughed first, and the sixth junior brother put on a posture of wanting to hit someone.
Wan Mengchen coughed lightly: "That's it? There should be nothing else to add."
Zhu Zhihan suddenly thought of something.
This action of theirs was planned to be carried out without telling Tu Meng - if Tu Meng knew about it, their plan would definitely be aborted.
Because Tu Meng's idea all along was to hope that they would spend their time practicing knives, and not devote themselves to the affairs of the sect, let alone engage in other "crazy ways".
So Zhu Zhihan asked: "If we want to hide from Uncle Tu Meng, how should we go to the secret realm?"
It took a long time to go out this time, and you must get permission to leave. It is not realistic to sneak away.
Moreover, it is impossible to go to such a place without the care of the elders.
Wan Mengchen also realized this and remained silent.
The senior brother and the sixth junior brother followed in silence.
—They forgot about it.
Finally, the sixth junior brother slapped his head: "I am familiar with the third elder, let's go find the third elder!"
There are five elders in Daozong.
The First Elder is in charge of the money, and generally will not leave the Sword Sect, the Second Elder Tu Meng is in charge of their disciples, and the Third Elder is in charge of the gate and often disappears.
The fourth elder took other disciples out for a trip, and he is not in the sect. The fifth elder retreats all the year round, and will not leave the seclusion for non-sectoral survival.
So the third elder is actually the only choice.
Wan Mengchen wondered: "Do you recognize the third elder who is elusive?"
"Wow, what do you mean, you underestimate your junior brother too!" The sixth junior brother raised his head, "I love everyone, and flowers bloom when I see flowers. What's so special about knowing the third elder?"
The sixth junior brother led them to find the legendary third elder.
Zhu Zhihan raised his head, and saw a thin old man sitting leaning among the lush tree crowns and branches.
The old man closed his eyes, his right hand drooped naturally, holding a flagon in his hand, shaking it, making it impossible to guess whether he was awake or drunk to death.
Sixth Junior Brother put his hands to his mouth and made a trumpet shape: "Hey old man! I need your help!"
Zhu Zhihan was surprised by this title—is it really okay to call it that?
After a few breaths.
The third elder tilted his head and leaned back.
Just when Zhu Zhihan was worried about whether the third elder would fall down, the old man was very agile, and with a trick of monkey fishing, he hung his toes on the branch he was leaning on earlier.
Only then slowly opened his sleepy eyes: "What are you doing? Disturbing people's dreams."
The sixth junior brother explained the purpose of his visit: "Take us there."
The third elder was hanging upside down like this, and he completely opened his eyes upon hearing this.
He didn't ask what they were going for, and he didn't worry about the danger. He just asked, "Is there any wine? If it doesn't taste good, I won't go."
The sixth junior brother looked back, it was discussed in advance - the third elder has a weird temper, and he must have conditions if he wants his help.
Zhu Zhihan came out more and more: "Senior, yes. In the secret place of the snow mountain we are going to, there is a kind of deer wine that can only be found in the local area. It is made with the snow water of Tianshan Mountain with the ancient method, and the taste is fragrant and mellow."
The third elder's eyes were slightly bright, as if he wanted to move.
Wan Mengchen struck while the iron was hot: "If you take us there, we will buy you as much as you drink!"
Third Elder: "I need to buy more and bring them back!"
Wan Mengchen: "Deal!"
By the time things were finalized, it was almost midnight.
Wan Mengchen yawned, with tears in the corners of his eyes: "Let's go, it's time to rest."
He specially emphasized: "Especially you, Junior Sister. You must have been busy all night yesterday. Making money is not as important as your body, do you hear me?"
Zhu Zhihan nodded.
After finalizing the matter, the excitement passed, and she did feel a little tired.
She clearly distinguishes the priorities, she still needs to sleep as a Foundation Establishment, and only when she is full of energy can she do more things.
So the next twenty days were spent in preparation.
Zhu Zhihan didn't forget to practice his sword either - only by becoming stronger can he protect himself, not be restrained by anyone, and take revenge for himself...
During the day, she concentrates on practicing the moves left in Luanwu Yujue, and sometimes she practices against Wan Mengchen and the others. As time goes by, the saber technique gradually becomes more perfect in her hands.
Evening is the time for her to concoct alchemy - for her who was immersed in alchemy in her previous life, refining these low-level elixirs is like a rest.
She had perfect control of her energies and devoted herself to both.
Tu Meng would also watch them practice their knives. Once she said with emotion: "It feels like your relationship has suddenly become more harmonious."
At this time, several people looked at each other and smiled: "Is there?"
"Yes, others can tell whether you can let it go or not, and whether you will be cautious." Tu Meng clicked her tongue and recalled, "I think back then, it took a long time for me and my senior sister to get acquainted."
Zhu Zhihan said: "Maybe it's because we are more destined."
Tu Meng just sighed casually, without going into details.
Several people secretly let out a sigh of relief.
In fact, it is because they have the same secret and goal.Working in the same direction makes their relationship extremely close.
Twenty days have passed in such a peaceful manner, and we are about to leave.
The third elder carried his broken flagon, walked up to Tu Meng, and said a few words: "I'll take these boys out for a stroll."
"How long have you been shopping?"
The third elder looked at Zhu Zhihan and the others, and Wan Mengchen made a 'ten'.
Third Elder: "About ten days."
Tu Meng didn't notice Wan Mengchen's little action, she obviously respected the third elder, hesitated: "But..."
In the end, Tu Meng still agreed: "I will pay you some money from my sect's account, don't go too far."
The third elder said: "That is natural."
Then the third elder, who promised not to go too far, took a few of them on a flying boat and came to the distant northern region.
The sixth junior brother lay on the side of the boat, looked at the scenery below the flying boat, and exclaimed: "Wow!"
Wan Mengchen and the elder brother also lay down on it, watching quietly.
None of them had ever been on a flying boat, nor had they been to such a distant place.
Under the flying boat, the things on the ground appear small and vast.
The surrounding monks silently moved away from them, as if separating a vacuum area—they looked too poor in their line of work, and showed that they hadn't seen much of the world, and even liars were unwilling to take a second look.
"It's a pity that my junior sister is dizzy from the flying boat and can't watch it with us." The sixth junior brother smacked his lips regretfully.
The third elder was dressed in rags, and was drinking on the side of the boat not far away.
Hearing what they said, he laughed, and said drunkenly: "When you learn to control objects in the future, you can watch this kind of scene every day, and vomit when you see it."
The three of them heard the words and imagined such a scene, and their excitement was much less.
Xue Yumono will fall down...
The second senior brother who went out to travel had the highest cultivation level and was also the first to learn imperial things. He broke a leg at that time.
The freshness passed, and the sixth junior brother said: "Why don't we go back, we shouldn't leave junior sister alone in the cabin."
This was agreed by both of them.
The third elder waved his hand: "You three go back, old man, I will take a breath outside."
Several people walked back.
Wherever they went, the monks would avoid them, as if they had something bad on them.
The sixth junior brother was unhappy, turned his head, and stuck out his tongue at those people.
At this moment, several people came out of the cabin, because he was distracted, and almost bumped into each other.
Sixth Junior Brother: "Hold..."
Before he could finish his apology, the other person yelled: "Walk with eyes! Do you know who you almost hit?"
The sixth brother was a little stunned
The man backed away, took a posture of guarding the person in the middle, and continued his performance: "This is the honorable alchemist!"
The chubby man in the middle waved his hands, with an irrepressible sense of pride on his face, and pretended to be generous: "It's okay, it's okay."
The chubby alchemist waited for a while, but he was a little dissatisfied that he didn't get a response of surprise or trepidation from the other side.
Those who complimented were very good at winking, and said to them bitterly: "Do you know how great an alchemist is?"
Before the sixth junior brother could react, he subconsciously replied, "Can you make a lot of money?"
Complimenter: "...it's status, status!"
Sixth Junior Brother finally came to his senses: "No, why did you curse people just now?"
Complimenter: "..."
Seeing many people looking at them, the chubby alchemist suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and kicked the pant leg of the person who complimented him: "Okay, we still have something to do, let's go."
The complimenter immediately returned to his original position and said flatteringly, "Yes."
The three of Wan Mengchen watched these people go away.
The sixth junior brother was indignant and muttered: "What's the big deal, our side also..."
Wan Mengchen tugged at him: "Speak carefully."
Looking at the backs of those people, Wan Mengchen sighed: "The outside here is no better than ours, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, they say so, maybe they are very powerful alchemists."
The sixth junior brother thought about it, and said sullenly, "Forget it... Huh, we will become stronger than them in the future!"
The elder brother patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.
Wan Mengchen smiled: "Yes."
……
Northern Territory.
In the vast and boundless snowfield, hundreds of large tents stand upright, and the tassels are blown up by the wind and snow.
This snow field is really too big, making these big tents small and lonely.
A woman in a heavy fur coat stood outside, gazing in the direction of the snow-capped mountains in the distance, without moving for a long time.
Behind her, the big tent was lifted.
An old man also dressed in fur came out.
When the woman heard the movement, she didn't turn her head.
"Daddy."
Because of the cold, her voice sounded hoarse.
The old man took out a cloak made of animal skin and put it on her: "The secret realm is about to open. My child Su Chaya, what are you still worried about? Everything will be fine."
Su Chaya shook his head: "Take it as my overthinking."
The blizzard seemed to be getting bigger.
The old man walked to Su Chaya's side and looked at the towering snow-capped mountains with her.
"Daddy." Su Chaya asked suddenly.
"What do you think we, the guards of the secret realm, actually do?"
