Brown stone walls, red floor tiles, black crystal alchemy furnace, chalky quartz water tank, pharmaceutical table, barite stove...
This is the alchemy room specially prepared by the Ye family for Luo Wenzhou. Seeing Ye Fan looking around, Luo Wenzhou said, "Ye Fan."
"Yes." Ye Fan turned around and cupped his hands at Luo Wenzhou.
"Before I diagnose you, I have two things to tell you."
Seeing Mr. Lin's sudden serious expression, Ye Fan was taken aback, and after a while he responded, "Sir, please tell me."
"The first thing is, Mr. Song and I, including Brother Qing Ce, are here for you."
"Ah I?"
This huge amount of information stunned Ye Fan at once. Whether it was Mr. Lin, Mr. Song, or Wu Qingce, who was temporarily serving as their coach, these three were all popular figures in the Ye family.
Although they are all young, even grandpa has no intention of belittling them, and respects their every opinion very much.
'Such three heroes... all came for me! ? '
Ye Fan suddenly felt that he had been chosen, and an indescribable emotion arose in his heart, as if some shackles were about to be broken.
Opening his mouth, Ye Fan wanted to ask something, but he didn't know where to start. He could only stare blankly at Luo Wenzhou. After all, the news came too suddenly and the amount of information was too great.
Seeing that Ye Fan was shocked, Luo Wenzhou continued: "The second thing is, I can help you get back your lost cultivation talent."
If the previous sentence just made Ye Fan a little shocked, then this sentence made him feel like he was struck by lightning.
He couldn't bear the excitement in his heart any longer, and rushed forward to grab Luo Wenzhou's arms and said, "Your words are true!?"
Luo Wenzhou smiled slightly: "I will tell you these things, so naturally I am very sure."
"Please sir, save me!"
Ye Fan immediately knelt down on the ground. He had been waiting for three years for such an opportunity! For this he would give everything.
Reaching out to support Ye Fan, Luo Wenzhou patted him on the shoulder and told him, "I'll give you three days, and I want you to give me an answer after three days."
"Answer?" Ye Fan was taken aback, "What answer?"
"What will you do after gaining power?"
After Luo Wenzhou finished speaking, he walked out of the alchemy room, leaving Ye Fan alone in deep thought.
Looking back at Ye Fan's stunned look, Luo Wenzhou couldn't help thinking of the scene when his master tested him, it was almost exactly the same.
Didn't notice Luo Wenzhou's turning around, Ye Fan's mind kept echoing that question at the moment.
'After getting the power... what will I do? '
Ye Fan didn't know why Mr. Lin asked him this question, but he knew that this question was very important, and it was related to whether he could seize this hard-won opportunity.
Ye Fan firmly believed that the answer must not be figured out by himself, Mr. Lin must have hidden the answer somewhere, waiting for him to find it.
And the ones most likely to know the answer... must be three heroes including Mr. Lin.
'I must find out! '
Swearing secretly in his heart, Ye Fan walked out of the alchemy room.
When practicing in the afternoon, as a "special" instructor, Wu Qingce was imparting his cultivation skills to the disciples of the Ye family.
Although Wu Qingce wanted to say that the way to become stronger is to have a god-man like a senior who can help you in all aspects, but he couldn't say it, so he could only think of what his seniors usually said when they reprimanded him.
"If you want to become stronger, you have to think more."
Pointing to his own head, Wu Qingce continued: "Cultivation cannot be achieved only by brute force and hard work. You must learn to think and think about what the purpose of this exercise is for you to practice like this, instead of blindly following it. .”
"Oh~"
All the disciples of the Ye family nodded their heads in amazement after hearing this. Although they still couldn't quite understand what Wu Qingce said, it sounded very powerful.
Ye Fan listened very carefully, and took every word of Coach Wu into his heart, trying to find the answer he needed in these few words.
When the free time started, Ye Fan suddenly heard the two cousins behind him discussing: "Hey, I heard a very powerful thing yesterday, which is related to Coach Wu."
"Oh? What's the matter? Come and listen."
"Hey~" The man kept a secret, "I managed to find out this news."
"Okay, okay, Taoju Inn tonight, my treat."
"Bright~ Manager Liu, who is in charge of Fengzhou, came back two days ago. As soon as he heard that Coach Wu was here, he immediately said that he was the most popular young cultivator in Fengzhou this year."
"Why?" The person next to him asked cooperatively.
"It is said that Fengzhou's strongest cover moon sect held a youth meeting of heroes, and invited all the young practitioners in Fengzhou who have not reached the weak crown to participate together. Guess what happened in the end?"
"What's the matter?"
"In this kind of competition full of heaven's favored sons, Coach Wu can actually come out on top! This talent is really the best in Fengzhou."
"So powerful!? Doesn't that mean that Coach Wu is the strongest young practitioner in Fengzhou?"
"Yeah, that's not what I meant."
"Then while Coach Wu is still here, we can learn more from him. In the future, even if we don't become the number one in Lanzhou, it would be nice to be number two or number three."
"It's saying, go, go."
Seeing the two cousins chasing after Coach Wu, Ye Fan was also very shocked at the moment.
Because Wu Qingce is a disciple of Guixin Sect, Ye Fan always hated him at first, but now he has slowly climbed out of the world full of resentment and hatred, and he has become rational when dealing with people and things and thinking about problems many.
When the screen named "hatred" disappeared, Ye Fan realized even more that this coach Wu is really strong, the number one in Fengzhou, this is the only honor in the whole prefecture, and he can't touch it at all. Unimaginably powerful.
And such a person came here specially for him.
"Does it mean that I also have a chance to become as strong as Coach Wu..."
When this thought arose, Ye Fan's feeling of breaking through some shackles reappeared.
The difference is that this time he understands, he understands that this is his long silent desire! The desire to become stronger!
So when the training time was over, Ye Fan immediately found Wu Qingce.
"Coach Wu, I... I have a question I want to ask you."
Seeing Ye Fan who came to find him for the first time, Wu Qingce found that his eyes became much clearer, and the expression on his face that the whole world owed him eight hundred taels of silver had changed to the expression that the whole world owed him eighty taels of silver. two silver.
"Let's go to town and we'll talk as we go."
"it is good."
Following Wu Qingce to the street of Jiyuan Town, Ye Fan opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know how to ask.
"I used to be just like you."
Hearing Wu Qingce's sudden opening, Ye Fan was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Teacher, what you said is the same...?"
"As weak as you, as you think I will stand alone against the whole world."
"I..." Ye Fan wanted to explain a few words, but found that Wu Qingce was right. Ever since he lost his talent for cultivation, he had always had this mentality.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Fan asked, "Then what has become of your thoughts, Coach Wu?"
After hearing this, Wu Qingce turned his head and replied, "That's my answer, and what you need to find now...is your own answer."
After finishing speaking, Wu Qingce stopped and bought two pieces of Longxu crisps from a small stall next to him, gave one piece to Ye Fan and said, "Think slowly, I believe you will find the answer like me."
After speaking, he patted Ye Fan on the shoulder and left with a wave.
Seeing the back of Coach Wu disappearing, Ye Fan put the dragon beard crisp in his hand into his mouth.
In the mouth, the taste of dragon beard crisp is clear, the mouth is loose, and the aftertaste is bursts of sweetness.
Suddenly, Ye Fan realized.
"Teacher Wu is using Longxusu to tell me the truth that all hardships come with joy!" '
This made Ye Fan feel that the dragon beard crisp in his mouth was getting sweeter and sweeter.
Just when Ye Fan was about to buy two more pieces of dragon beard crisps, he turned around and found that he had arrived in front of Taoju Inn at some point.
Thinking that Mr. Song was inside, Ye Fan immediately realized that Coach Wu must have brought him here on purpose.
Thanking Coach Wu in his heart, Ye Fan turned and walked towards Taoju Inn.
Seeing Ye Fan walk into the inn, Wu Qingce, who was hiding not far away, took out the note from the kit and compared it carefully.
'Well, the line is correct, so it should be fine. '
This is the first time for Ye Fan to come to Taoju Inn, because he spends all his time on cultivation. Although the speed of improvement is very slow, it is precisely because of the slowness that he has to put his effort into practice. Make up for his clumsiness, otherwise he really can only be a waste material for the rest of his life.
As a member of the Ye family, Ye Fan still has some privileges. He doesn't need to line up outside. After saying his name, he was welcomed into the lobby by Xiaoer.
After ordering a pot of welcome spring wine, Ye Fan began to look for Boss Song.
"Brother Shen, my red flame grass grows much faster than yours."
"What's the use of being quick, the color of your red flame grass is obviously not as bright as mine."
"Why isn't it as bright as yours, it's obviously red, even redder than the face of the Piaoxianglou oiran, and I'm sure I'll make good pills in the future."
…
Hearing the discussion of several people at the window, Ye Fan also leaned over to take a look, and found that there were dozens of Chiyancao plants planted next to the inn, and a wooden sign with a name was hung in front of each Chiyancao plant, and these He has more or less heard the name.
At this moment, Ye Fan seemed to suddenly understand why this Taoju inn could become a place for major families to stop in a short period of time.
"Hello, Boss Song."
"Boss Song, come over for a drink."
"Boss Song, these are some calligraphy and paintings that I bought recently, please help me grasp them."
"Boss Song, the method you taught me last time is amazing! This is a thank you gift, please don't be polite to me."
"Boss Song, you have to help me this time, otherwise my theater won't be able to continue."
…
As soon as he sat back in his seat, Ye Fan heard greetings continuously, and when he looked up, he saw that Mr. Song was slowly walking down from the second floor, surrounded by many guests who were drinking.
'It seems that Mr. Song is not only praised in my Ye family, but even in the whole Jiyuan Town, he is also very popular. '
Ye Fan just watched Mr. Song calmly deal with every prominent figure in Jiyuan Town. It can be said that everyone came here in high spirits and returned satisfied.
"Boss Yan, I saw your theater business doing well two days ago, what's the matter?"
Boss Yan shook his hand and sighed: "Hey, a few days ago, it was all about losing money and making money. These days, as soon as the fare was collected, no one came immediately. It's really hard to search."
After listening, Gu Qinghuan smiled and said: "The last time I went to the theater, I tasted the fried peanuts in your building, it was really good."
"Peanuts?" Boss Yan was stunned for a moment: "If Boss Song likes to eat them, I'll ask my servants to bring you more when I get back."
After hearing this, Gu Qinghuan shook his head: "No, what Song meant was, Boss Yan, your peanuts can be of great use."
"Oh? Also ask Boss Song to teach me."
"Boss Yan, when you go back, put up a sign saying that anyone who buys a ticket will get a plate of peanuts, and at least some people will go to the town to promote it."
"Ah?" Boss Yan was stunned after hearing this, "This... I don't have a lot of profit, and there are few customers, and I still give away food? Then my theater will really not be able to continue."
Lu Qing smiled and shook his head, and said: "Boss Yan, try it and you'll know. If it doesn't work, I, Song, will take care of tomorrow's play."
"Boss Song, what are you talking about? I still can't believe you can't do it, okay! I'll go back and do it now, thank you!"
When Boss Yan left, Gu Qinghuan sat down on Ye Fan's table and poured himself a glass of wine.
Ye Fan, who had been listening in, couldn't help asking: "Mr. Song, is the idea you gave to the theater owner just now really useful?"
After taking a sip of wine, Gu Qinghuan replied: "If you are interested, you can go and see for yourself at night."
"Okay, I'll definitely go." After speaking, Ye Fan said, "Mr. Song, I also have something to ask."
"Say it."
"I..." Ye Fan opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to ask the question.
Poured himself another glass of wine, Gu Qinghuan looked at Ye Fan who was hesitant to speak and asked, "What do you think power is?"
"What is strength?" Ye Fan chewed on this sentence, and tried to answer: "A high enough cultivation level?"
"Then you can't be called a strong man without cultivation?"
"That's...not really."
Holding the wine glass and standing up, Gu Qinghuan looked sideways at Ye Fan and said, "Follow this line of thought and think about it."
After speaking, he left.
Seeing Mr. Song leave, Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat again.
Whether it's Mr. Song, Mr. Lin, or Coach Wu, it can be said that these three people perfectly fit the image of a master in his heart, and their words are too artistic.
At this time, he thought about Mr. Lin's words again.
Coach Wu, as the number one person in Fengzhou, is naturally an absolute strongman with strength.
Although Mr. Song doesn't know how to cultivate, but with his current contacts, the power he can use in this Jiyuan town is no worse than anyone else's. Of course, this is also a kind of strength.
Not to mention Mr. Lin, he is already a third-rank alchemist at a young age. Even if he looks at the whole Lanzhou, he is also a top-level genius, and the power he can use is unimaginable.
Being approached by such three people, Ye Fan felt more and more that he must have potential that he could not even imagine.
