Chapter 35 Jiang Li
Li Yu had previously discovered that the short and thin guy in front of him had a good business sense.
Knowing that Li Yu had a high success rate in refining low-level elixirs, he refined a hemostatic pill himself. After reporting to Elder Han, he gave the remaining materials to Li Yu. The two of them split the elixir refined by Li Yu in 50-50.
In order to train new people, the sect does not have high requirements for alchemy apprentices. It is enough to refine one pill with ten materials. Both of them can make money from the remaining nine materials.
What's even more amazing is that he also made many copies of the booklet that he showed Li Yu last time, and sold them to Kunlun disciples at the price of twenty spirit coins per copy.
Everyone has a gossipy heart. Twenty spirit coins are not expensive for most Kunlun disciples. He earned a lot of spirit coins from this.
In Li Yu's courtyard, Wu Tong said to him mysteriously: "Tongmai Pill is not a rare commodity in Kunlun. Under normal circumstances, it will not be in short supply, unless some big shots in the sect intercept the pills that were originally intended to be sold..."
Li Yu subconsciously asked, "Would a big shot need Tongmai Dan?"
Wu Tong glanced at him and said, "Big shots don't need it, but their disciples and younger generations do. Do you think that all immortal cultivators are the same as us? We work hard to cultivate and risk our lives to complete tasks in exchange for elixirs, but others don't have to do anything but take elixirs. It's not a dream to gather Qi in one day and build a foundation in three days. Otherwise, how do you think they can reach the late stage of foundation building and golden elixir stage in their twenties..."
These things were not beyond Li Yu's expectations.
Some are born to be Romans, and some are born to be cattle and horses.
Some people are born in Kunlun, and their starting point is the destination that most people will never reach in their lifetime. This is the reality.
He thought for a moment and then asked, "Does it need to intercept so much?"
Kunlun is famous for its alchemy. There are at least hundreds of alchemists who can make Tongmai Pills. Even if each of them makes one pill per month, there will be an output of hundreds of pills.
Wu Tong shook his head and said, "Don't you think that those top geniuses are just like us and only cultivate one spiritual vein? No, it's not you. You cultivated four..."
He coughed lightly and said, "But they are different from you. Even if they are five-veined cultivators, from Qi Refining to Foundation Building, they can only make more than 350 Tongmai Pills. There are more than 200 alchemists above the second rank in the sect, but the materials for Tongmai Pills are limited. The monthly output is about 1,000 pills. Half of them need to be provided to major sects such as Tiandao Sect, Shushan, Emei, and Qingcheng to maintain the relationship between the sects, and by the way, exchange for some resources that Kunlun lacks from other sects. There are still 500 pills left, and half of them need to be provided to the disciples and descendants of the Yuanying ancestors, and the remaining half is for ordinary disciples to exchange with spirit coins..."
Wu Tong continued, "If a new disciple with extremely good talent joins, the more than 200 Tongmai Pills originally provided to ordinary disciples will become less. If this disciple cultivates all five meridians at the same time, then this month, the Tongmai Pills for ordinary disciples will be gone, and they will have to wait until next month at least..."
Li Yu said: "You mean, there is a new disciple with great talent?"
Wu Tong analyzed, "It's hard to describe his talent. You know, the general Nascent Soul Master doesn't have the authority to intercept the Tongmai Pills of all ordinary disciples that month. The lowest one has to be in the late Nascent Soul stage. There are not many masters in the sect who are in the late Nascent Soul stage. In the past six months, there has been only one who accepted a genius disciple, and that is Master Xuanzhen of Yuzhu Peak, the master of Senior Sister Xu Qingxin. She intercepted the Tongmai Pill for her new disciple, the Princess of Jiang Kingdom, Jiang Li, who is rumored to have a Heavenly Spiritual Vein..."
"It must be Jiang Li. She entered the sect late and started practicing late. Grandmaster Xuanzhen must have used Tongmai Pills to improve her cultivation. He intercepted so many Tongmai Pills at one time, so that she could practice with all five meridians at the same time. Among the Seven Sons of Kunlun, only Senior Sister Qin has this treatment..."
Wu Tong's endless analysis stunned Li Yu.
After all this time, it was Jiang Li who stole his Tongmai Pills and left him with money but nowhere to spend it...
Wu Tong said with some regret: "It's a pity that this Junior Sister Jiang has been practicing in seclusion since she entered the sect and never goes out. If I had her portrait, I could sell my booklet again... "
As soon as Wu Tong finished speaking, a white shadow suddenly fell from the sky and landed in Li Yu's yard.
She was a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a straight nose, picturesque eyebrows, and skin as white as jade. The first time Wu Tong saw her, his eyes widened.
But he was not looking at the girl herself, but at the clothes she was wearing.
It was a pink long dress with exquisite embroidery, which made the already stunning girl look even more extraordinary. There was a faint glow flowing on the hem of the skirt, and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary robe.
There is a faint petal mark on the collar of the dress.
Produced by Emei, the finest fairy clothing!
The moment he saw the girl, Li Yu stood up. Although she was wearing women's clothes and had a girl's hairstyle, Li Yu recognized her at a glance. This was his good brother.
"Li Yu!"
When Jiang Li saw Li Yu, a smile immediately appeared on her pretty face. She ran over holding the hem of her skirt and said , "I knew that Senior Sister Qingxin would definitely bring you in..."
Without waiting for Li Yu to speak, she hurriedly said, "I ran away secretly while the master was away. I can't stay here for long. This is for you, take it..."
She put a ring into Li Yu's hand, and secretly took out a jade box from her sleeve, saying, "This is for you too..."
Another figure in a green skirt descended from the sky. Seeing her handing the jade box to Li Yu, he said helplessly, "Junior sister, even if you give this fourth-level talisman to Junior Brother Li, he won't be able to use it. The mana required to activate the fourth-level talisman is enough to drain him dry a hundred times..."
"It's so dangerous, let's just forget it..." Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then she put the jade box away again. A flash of light appeared in her hand, and another talisman appeared. She stuffed the talisman to Li Yu and said, "This is a third-level talisman. You can use it after taking a bottle of Qi-recovering pills. Keep it for self-defense..."
She wanted to say something else when a cry suddenly came from the distant sky.
The cry became louder and louder, it must be approaching quickly.
Jiang Li's expression changed, and he said, "It's over, it's over. Master has asked Qingluan to catch me. I'm leaving first. I'll come to find you secretly next time..."
After saying that, she took one last look at Li Yu, flew up, and turned into a stream of light, heading towards an inverted peak floating in the sky in the distance.
Jiang Li came and left in a hurry, and Li Yu didn't even have time to say a word.
After a moment, he pointed to a ring and a talisman in his hand and looked at Senior Sister Xu.
Xu Qingxin just smiled helplessly and said, "This was given to her by the senior of the sect when she became his disciple. Just accept it. Besides the fourth-level talisman, all the important things on her were confiscated by the master . I'm curious why she insisted on keeping the talisman. It turned out that it was for you..."
…
Jiang Li and Xu Qingxin had been gone for a long time, but Wu Tong was still standing there in a daze.
When he came to his senses, he immediately looked at Li Yu and asked, "Just now, what was that..."
Li Yu said: "Don't you already know?"
Wu Tong jumped up in shock and said in disbelief: "Damn it, that's Junior Sister Jiang. Li Yu, what is your relationship with Junior Sister Jiang?"
The relationship with Jiang Li...
Li Yu thought about it. In the past, he could say without hesitation that he was his brother. Now, it was hard for him to describe the relationship between the two...
However, no matter what, in Li Yu's eyes, she is still his best friend and the closest person to him in this world.
After a long while, Wu Tong recovered and murmured, "No wonder, no wonder it was Senior Sister Xu who accompanied you when you entered the sect. It turns out that you have such a relationship with Junior Sister Jiang. Li Yu, when you become successful in the future, don't forget me, your brother..."
