Chapter 2: Chapter 2: The Way of Cultivation is Within
在墨羽阁.
老掌柜还在向顾客介绍墨水和纸张,但当他看到戴着竹帽遮住脸的身影走进店里时,他的老脸上顿时绽放出笑容...
他连忙向顾客道歉,并叫来徒弟帮他们继续说下去,而他自己则拉着李玄机的手,走进了内室.
"玄机,玄机,我终于等你了..."
老掌柜倒了些好茶递了过去,说:"你要是再不来了,我今天就去你家再催你一次.
"不要..."
李玄机摘下竹帽扔到一边,从袖子里拿出手稿递了过去,道:"我们之前约定好了,你不能让任何人知道这东西是我写的画的.
"年轻人在乎自己的面子,我明白,我明白,我会把这个秘密带到坟墓里,好吗?"
"那更像是..."
"好,好!"
老掌柜接过手稿,只看了看插图,昏暗的老眸微微一亮,嘟嘟囔囔地夸赞道:"要是我再年轻三二十岁,啧啧啧.
"如果它不好,我会把它交出来吗?"
"玄机,你真是天生就这么干的."
"少胡说八道..."
李玄机喝了一口茶,伸出手,道:"那这一季的红利呢?
"我怎么能缩短你?"
老掌柜掏出一个钱袋扔到他手里,道:"本季的分红是二十三块低级灵石,两千三百两银币,比上一季多了六块.
孤城位于世俗世界和修真世界之间,居住着大量的凡人,所以除了灵石之外,银币也有用,但购买力远不如灵石.
李玄机接过钱袋,在手里掂量了一下,感觉有些失落.
这二三十块低品灵石,是他修炼梦想的残余.
在这个金核和初生魂师飞来飞去的世界里,他所谓的"梦"到底有多可悲?
"走吧..."
他回过神来,把钱塞进储物袋里,然后戴上竹帽,头也不回地离开了.
老掌柜也知道他的脾性,见他走也没留他...
转眼间,天色一片漆黑...
李玄机看着灯火通明的腾云阁,喃喃道:"金手指,金手指,这就是我的全部,如果这百块灵石不够,那我真的要放弃了.
他摇了摇头,打消了思绪,然后装出一副笑容,再次走进了腾云阁的大门...
一个眼神犀利的少女迈着性感的步伐走到他面前,拉着他的胳膊朝阁楼走去,娇嗔地说:"哎呀,姬师傅,你来了~"
"走开,走开,我今天有重要的事情..."
李玄机笑了笑,道:"去找妈吧.
"那你做完事后就得来我家吧~"
女孩妩媚地看了他一眼,却乖乖地去叫妈妈.
不一会儿,妓院的刘嬷嬷笑着走了过来,手里拿着一把宫扇,挑眉道:"姬师傅,你改变主意了吗?
"Stop talking nonsense…"
Li Xuanji took out a money bag from his storage bag and stuffed it into her hand, saying, "I don't have any mid-grade spirit stones, you can exchange these hundred pieces of low-grade spirit stones yourself."
"Okay, okay~"
Liu Mama only weighed it and pulled him into the loft with a smile.
"Huh?"
Li Xuanji was slightly startled and asked, "Is she here?"
"I knew Master Ji would definitely come, so I asked her to come and wait early."
"No, I'm not ready yet!"
"You, Master Ji, have experienced your skills, what else do you need to prepare? Come on~~"
"…"
Li Xuanji was pushed into the elegant room.
He came back to his senses and looked around the environment, through the curtain in the elegant room, he could vaguely see a woman sitting at the table drinking.
He clasped his hands and asked, "Fellow Daoist, may I come in?"
"Fellow Daoist is joking…"
The woman in the curtain chuckled and replied, "If you don't come in, how can we do business?"
"That's true…"
Li Xuanji nodded slightly, then put aside his restraint and lifted the curtain and entered, but when he saw the female cultivator sitting at the table, there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
She had a delicate figure, a cute and pleasant appearance, and indeed had a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivation.
But he didn't know why, he always felt that this fellow Daoist was no different from the other girls in the Tengyun Pavilion, and lacked some spirit and immortal aura compared to the female cultivators he had in mind.
"What's wrong?"
The female cultivator saw him standing still, propped up her body and smiled, "Fellow Daoist, are you disappointed by my appearance?"
"That's not it."
Li Xuanji shook his head, implying, "Fellow Daoist is very beautiful, but, I thought immortals don't eat the fireworks of the world."
"Yes, immortals don't eat the fireworks of the world."
The female cultivator seemed to think of something, and said with a hint of helplessness and self-mockery, "But I'm not an immortal."
"That's true."
Li Xuanji nodded thoughtfully…
The female cultivator saw this and poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, saying, "We haven't done anything yet, fellow Daoist, if you feel it's not worth it, you can drink a cup of tea and leave."
"I'm a worldly person…"
Li Xuanji took the tea and took a sip, looking at the beauty in front of him, he suddenly reached out and hugged her in his arms, leaned over to her cheek and sniffed lightly, then waved his sleeve and blew out the candle in the room.
"Besides, I'm here anyway~"
…
[You have built a fairy fate (a glimpse of fate) with Ling Xueer, reward: a wisp of white fairy aura…]
[Ling Xueer's fairy fate degree: 60 (a glimpse of fate)]
"Hahahahaha~"
On the bed, Li Xuanji pounded the headboard and laughed, even tears came out and he didn't care to wipe them…
Ling Xueer pulled the corner of the quilt over her chest, seeing his out-of-control appearance, frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist, you don't have to be like this, do you?"
"You don't understand, you don't understand~"
Li Xuanji came back to his senses and took a long breath, feeling the extra wisp of so-called 'fairy aura' in his body, he quickly refined it…
He only felt a shiver all over his body, and his body seemed to have undergone some wonderful change in the dark…
[Refining white fairy aura, gain physique aptitude +2; comprehension aptitude +1; water spirit root aptitude +3…]
[Physique aptitude: low-grade (246/1000)]
[Comprehension aptitude: mid-grade (1328/10000)]
[Water spirit root aptitude: low-grade (64/1000)]
Fairy fate~ fairy aura!!
Li Xuanji saw the gains from refining the 'fairy aura', and his almost resigned heart became passionate again, as if he had returned to his youth!
He looked at Ling Xueer beside him, his eyes could not hide his joy, and said, "Fellow Daoist Ling, it's still early, why don't we…"
Before he finished his words, he pressed on her again.
"You…"
Day after day, until dawn, the movement in the elegant room finally quieted down.
Li Xuanji came out of the elegant room with a frown, feeling something wrong with his body, he could only rub his lower back and sigh: time spares no one…
He hurried to a nearby pharmacy, and directly slapped all his silver notes on the counter.
Then he went to the cabinet where the medicines were stored and found out a pack of medicinal materials, and used a stone mill to grind them into powder.
Then he found a sand pot and lit a small fire.
He first poured some water into the sand pot and placed it on the fire to bake, then quickly picked up a small medicine spoon and added various unknown powders to the sand pot…
"Main ginseng strengthens the qi and nourishes the blood, auxiliary cornus, angelica strengthens the heart and moves the qi and blood, borneol and dragon brain refreshes the mind and clears the mind, and finally add a little bit of epimedium, cistanche, and cynamorium as ingredients…"
Li Xuanji muttered to himself while stirring, until the water in the sand pot evaporated almost, and the mixture of various medicinal powders also became paste-like, he took it out and rolled it into pills…
He held a bottle of homemade pills in his hand, his eyes flickered and muttered, "The way of cultivation is within!!"
