Chapter 46 Harsh Conditions
The antique and fragrant room exudes a faint fragrance of medicine.
Chao Pengfei leaned lazily on the chair, holding a green teapot in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was asleep. Even when he heard footsteps of someone entering the door, he didn't have the interest to look up at him at all.
"Senior Brother Chao, Fairy Lingluo and Crazy Knife are here." Liu Ziyi said softly after walking to Chao Pengfei's side a few steps.
Hearing this, Chao Pengfei opened his eyes lazily, but his body was still lazily leaning on the chair. "I heard that Liang Jiaming died at your hands, so he has some ability, but how do you plan to deal with the white Shura?"
With his eyebrows slightly raised, Jiang Shili said calmly, "The soldiers come and the generals stop them, and the water comes and the soil covers them, but this is the case."
"It's so light." Chao Pengfei snorted lightly, "To be honest, I didn't want to see you at first. Although you have some strength, it's still far from competing with the White-clothed Shura. However, since the junior sister spoke, I'll give you a chance."
"Give me a reason you can survive the White Shura."
Without waiting for Jiang Shili to answer, Lin Fangfei said first, "Master Chao is worried too much. After all, Junior Brother Jiang is also a member of the sect and is also a registered disciple of the Blood Sword Ancestor. Even if he has some gaps with the White-clothed Shura, there is no question of meeting life and death. What's more, this trip to the Medicine King Valley, I will be with Junior Brother Jiang, so there is no danger."
Even if she really wants to fight with the other party for life and death, she must not say this, and she is still in harmony on the surface. Even if Shura in white wants to take action, she cannot be blatant. At the same time, this also points out the alliance between her and Jiang Shili, so she will naturally not be able to fight back.
He looked at Lin Fangfei deeply, but Chao Pengfei did not answer.
"Senior Brother."
While speaking, a young man outside the door tentatively shouted, and then he realized that there seemed to be a little too many people in the room, so he wanted to quit.
"Come in, what are you doing?" Chao Pengfei snorted coldly and scolded when he glanced at the young man.
He suddenly shuddered. The boy walked in without any help, "Senior Brother, I don't know you have guests here, so you can do it first."
"What am I doing? You don't need to remind me. Tell me, why are you here for?" Chao Pengfei snorted dissatisfiedly, and asked indifferently.
This sounds like reprimanding the young man, but it is also in this way that reminds Jiang Shili and Lin Fangfei that with his strength and talent in the alchemy, he does not need to ask anyone, but Jiang Shili and the others need to ask him. Therefore, to a certain extent, they are not much different from the young man he scolded.
None of the people here are fools, so they naturally understand Chao Pengfei's intention. Even Liu Ziyi, who brought Jiang Shili and the others, couldn't help but frowned slightly.
Perhaps the only one who doesn't understand what's going on is the only boy who bumped into it.
"Senior brother... I just want to ask for some more materials to refine the small Xuan Dan." After hesitating for a while, the young man finally spoke.
"Nothing!" The face became colder and colder, and Chao Pengfei scolded sternly, "I told you a long time ago that the path of alchemy is undoubtedly a step forward, and how can you reach the sky in one step? You have just been practicing the beginning less than two years ago and have tried to refine the small Xuan Dan. If you haven't learned it, you can't fly?"
"But......."
"No, but!" After interrupting the young man without hesitation, Chao Pengfei continued, "I have given you a chance before. I have failed to refine all three materials. Do you still don't know how to repent?"
It seemed that when I mentioned these professional things, the boy's courage also strengthened, and he defended quietly, "The success rate of Xiaoxuan Dan's pill recipe itself is only 30%, it is nothing more than reading the text according to the script. I have always wanted to make some changes to the pill recipe, so I failed continuously."
"Ha, are you capable? Are you Dan Sect? Do you still want to change the pill recipe?" Hearing this, Chao Pengfei put down the teapot in his hand, he sneered, "What are you, how dare you speak nonsense? Get out of here and go to seclusion from today. When will you correct this ignorant problem and come back to refine the alchemy."
After being scolded by Chao Pengfei, the young man did not dare to talk back, so he had to retreat aside honestly and think about how he would plead with his senior brother until these people left.
"My junior brother is young and ignorant, so I am laughing at you." After waving his head, Chao Pengfei turned to Jiang Shili again, pondered for a moment and said, "Since Fairy Lingluo has spoken, I can't help but give me some face. Let's do this. I want 70% of the spiritual medicine I get during this trip to the Medicine King Valley."
As soon as these words were spoken, even though Lin Fangfei had some mental preparation, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"Sir Chao, this condition is probably a bit too much, right?"
The ordinary alchemist only needs 30% of the spiritual medicine. Even some amazing geniuses and Lin Fangfei and others who led the trip to the Medicine King Valley were only 50% or 50% at most, and they would need 70% at one mouth, which was simply blackmailing.
"You can think of this as a gambling." Looking at Lin Fangfei without any concern, Chao Pengfei said lightly, "You know, if he died at the hands of Shura in white, I would have no rewards in this trip to the Medicine King Valley. Since I want to take risks, I will naturally have high returns."
After pausing, Chao Pengfei continued, "Of course, this is just the first time to cooperate. If he is strong enough, after this trip to the Medicine King Valley, I will naturally lower my conditions and turn back to a 50% share in the future, which is not bad."
Hearing this, both Jiang Shili and Lin Fangfei already understood.
Before, Chao Pengfei made an arrogant attitude, not really wanting to reject Jiang Shili, but just wanted to make conditions in this way.
Now that the conditions have been set up, the situation has been analyzed very clearly. How to choose is Jiang Shili's business.
After all, no matter how arrogant Chao Pengfei is or how harsh the requirements are, he is undoubtedly the real leader among the young and middle-aged alchemists.
If we can make friends in this way and establish a foundation for long-term cooperation, then even if we suffer some losses in this trip to the Medicine King Valley, we may not necessarily be unacceptable.
With the guarantee of spiritual medicine, the growth of a genius alchemist is also extremely terrifying.
If Chao Pengfei could go further during the period of cooperation between Jiang Shili and enter the realm of a master of alchemy, the benefits Jiang Shili could get would be absolutely incalculable.
The most important thing is that it is not a secret that Jiang Shili killed Liang Jiaming. Chao Pengfei even had such concerns, so other alchemists naturally had them too.
Once Chao Pengfei is rejected, can you really find other excellent alchemists to cooperate with?
Could it be that in the end, can you find a pill master who can't even refine the small Xuan Dan to cooperate?
You know, without the support of the alchemist, even if there is more spiritual medicine, it will not be of much use. If it weren't for this, I'm afraid Chao Pengfei wouldn't dare to act like a sure way to take Jiang Shili.
