Chapter 220 Cumbersome Cultivation
Chapter 220 Treble Practice
"What? What do you want those things to do?" Jiongjiong stretched out his right wing and gently patted his left wing on it, as if he was counting some treasures: "Ice and fire lotus... Thousand-year-old Jianmu... Purple orchid Ganoderma lucidum grass... It will soon absorb a piece of ten thousand-year-old chalcedony..." It shook its feathers as if complaining about Gu Fan's good luck: "You have eaten so many treasures of heaven and earth, and what should you do for low- and medium-grade elixirs? Even the top-grade elixirs are very small to help you... You are useless to eat other elixirs!"
"Don't worry about what I'm using for!" Gu Fan interrupted Jiongjiu's words. This parrot is good at everything, but likes to mess with people. He likes to break the casserole to ask until the end. This is not a likable personality. "Anyway, as long as you can help me refine low-grade and medium-grade elixirs, I will buy you fried peanuts every day!"
"Ga?! When have you become so generous?" Jiongjiu looked at Gu Fan, and he had already noticed three words "something is tricky" from his eyes! Suddenly, Jiongjiu smiled evilly, covered his mouth with one wing, and said with a successful scheming expression: "Okay, then three bags a day, I'll go on strike if I lose one bag!"
Gu Fan was stunned for a full half-minute look at Jiongjiong, and finally gritted his teeth. He seemed to have made an extremely difficult decision. He said tragically as if he had said it would lose a piece of meat: "Okay... I promise you... three bags of fried peanuts worth two cents a day, not enough to fill..."
"Gagagagaga..." Jiongjiu covered his mouth with his wings and smiled very happily. After all, he had been suppressed by Gu Fan, bullied and teased. This suppressed feeling finally received compensation and satisfaction when he saw the painful and difficult expression on Gu Fan's face just now. And it felt like he had made money and made a lot of money!
Although the expression on Gu Fan's face still seemed like a gambler who lost all his capital, he was already smiling to the sky and even laughing wildly. Is there any cheaper alchemist than this? It costs six cents a day to eat, and nothing else! It's simply free labor! But Gu Fan knew that this parrot was very smart. If it found out that Gu Fan actually laughed, he would definitely feel that there was a clue. Maybe it would turn into nine packs of fried peanuts every day! But Gu Fan, based on his heart, as long as Jiongji refines a low-grade pill for him, the money would be enough to buy fried peanuts as high as a mountain for Jiongji!
Finally, Gu Fan hired Jiongjiong to hire Jiongjiong as a special alchemist for the Pingyuan Hou Mansion with three packs of fried peanuts every day. His term was ten years, and his salary increased in sequence between three packs of fried peanuts and nine packs of fried peanuts. Therefore, the most serious labor exploitation incident in the history of the Beidou Dynasty quietly kicked off in the tent of the deputy commander of the Yunyi Department of the Imperial Army.
But it was our tragic workers who thought they had made money and made a lot of money. This is a "win-win" cooperation!
Gu Fan then asked Jiongjiu, the precautions and taboos for the use of purple orchid Ganoderma lucidum grass and the ten thousand years of chalcedony. Then he sent the talking little animal to the camp of Xie Yuxiang and Meng Wuhen. After all, a parrot ran around in the camp of the imperial guards, and he also spoke human words and asked where there was peanuts. Not to mention it, he might be caught by a furious soldier for a meal. Gu Fan would cry for three days and three nights. This was definitely more than ten times more painful than the old hen that laid a golden egg and slaughtered it secretly.
At the end, Gu Fan also specifically reminded the two of them that they must protect their Dharma recently and that they would go into seclusion to reach the Shentian level. He also deliberately told the two of them not to forget to buy fried peanuts for them to eat.
Fortunately, Xie Yuxiang and Meng Wuhen had seen Gu Fan's singular bird that only spoke humans before, so they were not surprised to be dumbfounded.
After settling down, Gu Fan returned to his camp and heard the sound of the whistle outside. It was already ugly. Fortunately, warriors can recover their physical strength through meditation. In addition, innate warriors themselves communicate the energy of heaven and earth, and their energy is much higher than that of ordinary people. Therefore, even if they don’t rest for several days and nights, it’s not a big deal. Compared with sleep, Gu Fan has an even more important thing, that is, the eight martial arts performances before the end of the month. Gu Fan must break through the bottleneck between the innate level and the Shentian level and be promoted to the Shentian level!
Gu Fan sat cross-legged on his bed, and made a spell seal with his left and right hands, and suddenly summoned the seal script of the red and blue swords in his body. Countless seal scripts as big as tadpoles appeared in the entire tent, floating in the air and wandering around. Gu Fan thought, and all the seal scripts flew towards the inner wall of the tent, quickly splicing and joining together into a circle of tangible barriers. Obviously, Gu Fan did this not because he was afraid of being attacked by someone, but because he was afraid of being disturbed while practicing.
After doing these preparations, Gu Fan took a deep breath and was able to introduce the qi into the internal organs in sequence to form a cycle. This is the "spending method" that Gu Fan learned, which can greatly increase the energy of heaven and earth that he absorbed each time. This may not be obvious in practice, but such an advantage is very obvious in battle. If the opponent needs to constantly replenish the energy of heaven and earth, you can make moves one after another, and the advantage is self-evident.
He swallowed it in one breath and felt a stream of clear flow rolling in his body. It was so comfortable. He immediately cheered up and swept away his previous fatigue. He took out the ten thousand-year-old chalcedony and purple orchid Ganoderma lucidum grass given by Huan Lingyue and placed it next to the bed. Gu Fan knew that what he needed most to break through the bottleneck of the Shentian level was strength. As long as he could improve his strength to this level, even without any fancy skills, he could naturally reach the Shentian level. However, warriors who broke through this kind of breakthrough generally only had two star silhouette powers. Gu Fan had now reached two star silhouette powers. What he needed to pursue was the four star silhouette powers obtained after breaking through the Shentian level.
He knew that cultivation and improvement were not achieved overnight. Even if he had treasures like the ten thousand-year-old chalcedony and the purple orchid Ganoderma lucidum grass, if he encouraged the growth of seedlings and blindly sought speed, he would be very likely to become possessed and enter a state of endless disaster.
