Lord of the Desert

Chapter 58 Bleu Dan

"Hey, this is the first time I have seen the real thing."

Wen Zhongguan held the jade cap in his hand and sighed in amazement.

"Bai Lu Dan, the top penetrating realm medicine produced by Haizhou Xinsheng Sect. When I left Xijing, I heard that one was priced at 3000 taels of silver."

As soon as the words came out, the other four people in the room were all frightened.

"3000 taels of silver, my god, isn't this box 2000 taels?!"

Zhu Jingfu said in surprise, a pair of protruding ears turned red.

"One elixir can cost a rich family? What kind of effect can it be worth the price?" Jia Ziyong was also speechless.

"Bai Lu Dan is only effective for penetrating realm warriors, and the effect is very simple."

Wen Zhongguan replied.

"The efficacy of the medicine is like white dew, no matter what kind of body it is, it can melt into it without any hindrance, and it can penetrate the meridians without side effects."

"If the user's talent is not bad, one can be worth one serious."

……

"One pill breaks one orthodox scripture? Aren't these four pills four orthodox scriptures?!"

Hearing this, Qian Hongda was shocked, his heart was burning, and his eyes seemed to be glued to the elixir.

He was nearly forty years old, and he had been cultivating the Six Paths of the Penetration Realm after many years of serious cultivation, and he had no hope for martial arts.

Because of this, I can appreciate the value of this easy "leap".

On the contrary, the two young master craftsmen with internal vision on the side, because the gap is too large, there is only a cloud in the fog, and the mountain looks up.

At this time, only Wen Zhongguan in the reception room did not lose his composure.

"Actually, it is a sensitive matter for us to purchase martial arts resources for the supervisor."

"The supervisor specially prepared this gift because you like to practice martial arts, it shows that you value it!"

Wen Zhongguan mentioned the word "highly valued", and he was proud on the surface.

"But brother, there is no need to panic."

"Although this elixir is expensive, it is nothing compared to the originality of your Taylor formula."

He pushed the jade box in front of Hong Fan.

On the side, Qian Hong heard the "Taylor formula", and his expression became clear instantly: "Master is right. There are as many warriors who penetrate the realm in the world as crucian carp crossing the river. They are just as serious as they are, or 2000 taels of silver. Compared with Hong Xiandi's two This paper is nothing more than nothing!"

When Hong Fan heard what the two said, the sense of emptiness in his heart faded a little.

He stretched out his hand to pull the jade box, wanting to pick up the elixir, but held his hand steady again.

"Are there any precautions when using this elixir?"

Hong Fan raised his head and asked, his eyes were already calm.

"It was mentioned in Zhuanggong's letter that there is nothing special about using it. You can just take it with water before practicing. The effect of a pill is about fifteen days."

Wen Zhongguan replied.

"Bai Ludan's alchemy is 'to control the body with the heart, to move the body from the outside'; the user must take it continuously, up to four pills in a row, if the amount is too much, it is likely to confuse the mind."

"In addition, once the effect of this pill is interrupted, it will no longer be effective if taken again. In other words, a person can only use four pills in a lifetime."

"Thank you, Master, for clarifying the confusion, I understand."

Hong Fan put the lid of the jade box away, and wanted to ask Wen Zhongguan to convey his thanks to Zhuang Liren, but he couldn't get out the words after several organized speeches.

The personal letters and gifts from the chief supervisor are not insincere, and they just solved the urgent need of Fang Zhiwu's case.

But he only used Qi as a supervisor as an alternative. Although he has the status of a master craftsman, he has not fully integrated himself.

Based on this, no matter how precise the words are, Hong Fan can't help but feel ashamed.

Wen Zhongguan saw through the embarrassment of the "virtuous brother" at a glance.

"Your situation—including that you are working in the clan, and you have not actually participated in Jin Haiqi's work as a supervisor—I have truthfully reported it to Duke Zhuang."

He waved his hands to make the two disciples step back, waited for the sound of footsteps outside the door to fade away, and said.

"He wasn't dissatisfied with this, and he just answered me with one sentence—Mr. Hong Fan is still young, and it's normal for him to be undecided. Just tell him that the door of my department is always open."

The living room fell into silence.

Hong Fan couldn't say anything for a long time, but nodded silently, as if he had made some promises in his heart.

Then he stared at the two seniors again, stood up and said solemnly: "This time, Hong Fan was able to escape the danger with the help of the two of you, and the kindness must be remembered in my heart!"

As he spoke, he bent down and bowed deeply.

"It doesn't have to be!"

Neither of them sat down to receive the gift, but stood up and supported each other.

"There is no need to say thank you between you and me—don't blame my brother for speaking bluntly. The transfer of Qian Hong and I back to the state capital depends on you!"

Wen Zhongguan's words were unavoidably naked, but Hong Fan felt very comfortable hearing them.

Between non-kinship and non-relationship, interest is the basis of emotion.

······
Into the night the next day.

Inside the Mingshan Hall of the Hong Mansion, the lights are bright and the carved beams reflect the light.

In the main hall, which is not easy to use, all kinds of delicacies are placed on the table, and more than a dozen people drink and eat happily.

The round table does not have a front head, but a symmetrical left and right top head, where Zheng Zhun and Wen Zhongguan are seated respectively.

And Hong Jian and Hong Li were sitting next to each other to accompany them.

For the younger generation, only Hong Sheng and Hong Fan are eligible to attend.

But apart from the important figures of the Chengshoufu and Qi Zuojian, no one from the Li family and the Chi family was invited.

"My lord is so polite, I am ashamed of it!"

Zheng Zhun put down his wine glass and bowed his hands to Hong Jianlue.

His honorable title of lord was directed at the hereditary "Lieutenant of the Fuguo" of the Hong family.

"The so-called legal net is extensive and not leaky. The key to this case is Hong Fanxing's direct shadow. When I asked the people below about the response in the traffic hall that day, they were all full of praise."

"Yesterday, I made an appointment with Patriarch Fang again, and tried to persuade him; after a while, his grief and anger will subside a little, and he will be able to turn around."

Zheng Zhun said with a gentle smile towards Hong Fan, and changed the subject again.

"Now it seems that this case is mostly caused by outsiders, Mr. He and..."

He wanted to share a word for the other two families, but when he saw the voices at the wine table suddenly stopped, he immediately stopped talking.

Before the atmosphere cooled down, Qiu De, who was standing beside him, already said, "I happened to go to Fang's house to pick up the goods today, and their shopkeeper even apologized to me in private. I didn't expect the adults to mediate!"

After the words fell, Hong Fan took advantage of the situation and stood up to toast each other.

After a meal of toasts and chips, the momentum became hot again.

Most of the people sitting in the Mingshan Hall at this time are strong fighters in martial arts, and drinking is full of wine.

After toasting each other for three rounds, several jars were emptied at the table.

Even Wen Zhongguan's quasi-unorganized state turned red in the face, Qian Hong and others who were less physically fit were even more tongue-tied.

"Now that the border troubles have subsided, the unicorns of your family are unique, and they are already in sight."

Zheng Zhun raised his glass slightly shaking, and said to Hong Sheng first.

The latter was appreciated by the elders, and he got up and drank to thank him.

Then Zheng Zhun looked at Hong Fan again, half congratulating and half sighing.

"Although Hong Fanxian's nephew is a little less talented in his age, but with the help of Sha Shijie, he will be the second shocking Shagong in ten years' time."

"At that time, the Hong family in Jinhai was going to shake Liangzhou!"

At the banquet, everyone surnamed Hong was more than modest, but Qian Hong laughed out loud.

Compared with Wen Zhongguan, he has the self-esteem and arrogance of a truth-seeker-in his opinion, Hong Sheng and Ma Jingsha are nothing but martial arts fighters, how can they be compared with Hong Fan who deduced "Taylor, must reach" compared to?

"My lord's words are wrong. Even if there is no destiny star, with Hong Xiandi's talent and opportunity, why does it take ten years to get started?"

Qian Hong blushed and retorted.

PS: Sorry for the late update today.

I fell ill again last night, and my stomach felt uncomfortable, but it was already better.
