I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 4 Invitation

"Chen Daoyou, you also know my Zhang Mazi's style. I always don't bargain for the price, but you don't have room for research on this matter."

The shopkeeper stroked his non-existent beard and spoke slowly.

"What do you mean? If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you still twitching like a woman after not seeing you for a few days!"

Chen Lin was anxious, but his tone was not very good.

The shopkeeper was still calm, glared at him and said: "With your mentality, it's no wonder that you have been unable to improve your cultivation base. Immortal cultivators are most afraid of quick success and quick benefits. You must be calm when doing anything, otherwise it is easy to go mad and fall into the devil's way." what!"

Chen Lin was taken aback.

Then he cupped his fists and said: "What Zhang Daoyou said is very true, I have been taught."

Regardless of whether the other party squints or not, this sentence makes sense.

The shopkeeper gave Chen Lin a childish look, and then said slowly, "What is the success rate of refining this fireball talisman?"

I don't understand why the other party asked this question, but this is not something that cannot be said, Chen Lin immediately replied: "[-]%!"

"It's only [-]%, it's a little less, but with your cultivation base, it's already rare to be able to refine a first-order middle-grade talisman by leaps and bounds. With the increase of proficiency, it will be improved."

The other party was talking to himself there, and Chen Lin didn't know how to interject, so he could only keep silent and wait for the next sentence.

"Chen Daoyou, I wonder if you are interested in joining our Zhang Family?"

Suddenly, the other party raised his head and said something that made Chen Lin stunned.

"What do you mean, could it be that a young lady from your Zhang family has taken a fancy to me and wants to marry me?"

Chen Lin immediately created countless pictures in his brain.

The Zhang family mentioned by the other party refers to one of the five major families, the Zhang family of the Immortal Cultivation Family, the one whose Foundation Establishment powerhouse just disappeared.

Even if there is no strong foundation builder, but after all, it is the five major families, and the background is still strong, which is not comparable to ordinary forces.

The most important thing is that the other party has the pill in his hand, which is what he lacks most now.In order to escape from this place, it is not impossible to sacrifice yourself.

"You think it's beautiful!"

The shopkeeper was amused by Chen Lin's words.

Then he squinted and said with a sneer: "My Miss Zhang family is not worthy of a toad like you. If you are willing to marry a mortal without spiritual roots, I can match you up for you."

Seeing the shopkeeper's tone of voice, Chen Lin immediately shook his head.

"Forget about mortals, if you don't have a common language, you might as well be single. What did that friend Zhang say before?"

The shopkeeper's expression changed, and he said: "You may have heard the rumors that something happened to our Zhang family recently, and we are recruiting a large number of talents with various skills. Since Chen Daoyou can refine the first-order middle-grade talisman, let's The conditions for recruiting have been met, and if fellow daoist is interested, I can report to the family and invite fellow daoist to become our family's exclusive talisman teacher."

Chen Lin was a little moved, "What are the benefits of becoming an exclusive talisman master?"

It doesn't matter whether it's getting married or becoming an exclusive talisman master, as long as you can get the pill.

"Well, there are naturally many benefits. Not only can we provide more talisman refining methods for free, but we can also receive the corresponding spirit stones as monthly money, and we can also get the talisman making master of our Zhang family to teach us how to make talismans. , it can be said that there are many benefits."

The shopkeeper touched his chin and said proudly.

"With so many benefits, I'm afraid it's not so easy to get. Are there any restrictions?"

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and Chen Lin is sober about this.

The shopkeeper squinted and sneered, and said: "The conditions are very loose, you only need to sign the oath of the demon, and you will not betray the family for the rest of your life!"

really.

Chen Lin sneered secretly in his heart.

It is impossible to expect these people to show kindness, it is pure wishful thinking.

This is not recruiting any exclusive talisman teacher, it is simply recruiting slaves, signing a contract of sale!

The oath of the heart demon has a very strong binding force on the cultivator. Once violated, the heart demon will definitely backfire.

"Forget it, I'm used to being free by myself, and I don't like being restrained. Thank you Zhang Daoyou for your kindness."

Chen Lin directly refused.

I didn't even bother to ask if I could provide a share of the pill purchase.

He absolutely cannot swear the oath of the demon, let alone leave here.

The shopkeeper didn't care about Chen Lin's attitude, but took a deep look at him and said: "Chen Daoyou, Kaiyuan City is getting more and more uneasy now, I advise you to think carefully, if you don't depend on us The Xiuxian family, I am afraid that the next life will not be too easy!"

Chen Lin was stunned for a moment.

Then he arched his hands.

"Thank you for the reminder, shopkeeper, then I will think about it."

The shopkeeper shook his head, looking like you don't know how to flatter.

After leaving Zhang's Firm, Chen Lin walked around other shops and bought a large package of materials.

After spending almost all of his net worth, he went back.

There is still a lot of snow.

The snow on the ground was more than a foot thick, and it was difficult for even a cultivator to walk.

Basically, I met no one along the way, and occasionally there were a few, and they were all monks who had learned the flying technique in the middle and late stages of Qi training.

Chen Lin was also very envious of the flying technique. If he learned this technique, his survivability in the wild would be greatly improved.

It's a pity that this spell needs to be learned at least in the middle of Qi training, and it is said that it is very difficult to learn.

At the moment, we still need to focus on improving our cultivation base.

Alchemy must be put on the agenda immediately.

When he got home, Chen Lin lit a fire to cook and started making talismans after eating.

What he made was a powerful talisman, a low-grade first-level talisman, one of the two types of talisman that the original owner only knew.

The fireball talisman didn't make any money, and it would waste a lot of time, so it had to be put on hold temporarily.

Although the Dali Talisman is cheap, the original owner has mastered it proficiently, and the success rate can reach [-]%. In addition to his ten-time must-hit talent, there is a full [-]% success rate. Aside from the cost, every ten materials can earn two spirit stones about.

Get up early, stay up late, and you can refine twenty ingredients a day.

That's four spirit stones in the account!

First use this craft to earn enough to buy the material Lingshi before you can start to try alchemy.

Chen Lin hung a Do Not Disturb sign outside the door, and then started making talismans day and night.

Shake.

Ten days passed.

With two dark circles under his eyes, Chen Lin looked at the thick stack of talismans in his hand, feeling a sense of accomplishment.

The snow outside was much thicker, and there was still no intention of stopping.

If it goes on like this, I won't be able to go out in a few days.

Chen Lin pushed open the window, looked worriedly at the snowflakes flying in the sky, and took a long time to look away.

However, the thing that has been worrying about being investigated did not happen, which made him relax a lot.

It took a lot of effort to open the door, and after simply clearing the snow, Chen Lin staggered towards Fangshi.

Branch of Chang's Commercial Bank.

It was warm in the room, but there was no one there.

Chen Lin took out all the Dali Talismans and put them on the counter.

"You actually increased the success rate of the Dali Talisman to [-]%, which is an improvement!"

Based on the refining time, shopkeeper Zhang Mazi immediately calculated his success rate.

Surprised.

It is impossible for this kind of low-level talisman to be coveted, so Chen Lin did not hide it at all.

He nodded and said: "That's right, since the Fireball Talisman was refined, I have a deeper understanding of how to make Talismans."

Naturally, it was impossible for Zhang Mazi to know that Chen Lin was no longer the original Chen Lin, and that he still had the talent of being sure to hit ten times. He only thought that Chen Lin had suddenly opened up and his potential had been tapped out.

While handing over the spirit stone for purchasing the Dali Talisman to Chen Lin, he squinted and sneered before staring at Chen Lin.

Chen Lin looked a little hairy.

"Look what, you don't want to rob money, do you?"

Chen Lin put the spirit stone in his pocket and held it in his hand, looking at him warily.

Zhang Mazi squinted and sneered, "You treat me as a poor ghost like you, and this little spirit stone is worth my hands?"

Chen Lin also knew that as the other party, it was impossible to take a fancy to this little money, but it was just to ease the atmosphere.

"Then what do you see me doing?"

Zhang Mazi stroked the non-existent beard, and said, "I have a cousin who has been widowed for many years. Although she is older, uglier, fatter, and less tempered, she has the ability to cultivate her energy." With a cultivation base of the fourth floor, and a younger brother who is in the late stage of Qi training, if Chen Daoyou is interested, I can recommend it to you."

……

Chen Lin's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Resisting the urge to punch the other party's pockmarked face, he refused in a cold voice: "Thank you for your kindness, the shopkeeper. I really can't compete with the young lady of your Zhang family."

He could dedicate himself to improving his cultivation, but he couldn't dedicate himself to such a degree.

I thought the other party would be upset if he said that, but Zhang Mazi thought about it for a while, but showed a deeply appreciative expression.

He squinted and sneered and nodded, "Chen Daoyou really has self-knowledge. You are right. I took it for granted. With your conditions, my cousin must not like it. If I really introduce it, I will probably be rejected." If you reprimand me, then just treat it as if I didn’t say anything about it.”

Chen Lin opened his mouth.

Was speechless.

He secretly scolded the other party for looking down on people, and he didn't even have the mood to buy materials here, so he turned around and left.

His chest was still heaving with anger when he left the door.

But when he thought that these people were a bunch of marionettes, his anger dissipated a lot.
