Chapter 51 New House
During this time, Gao Xian went to the mountains to practice every day, and he felt that he had made great progress. However, he did not like to kill each other with other practitioners.
In his opinion, this kind of involution is too cruel and has completely exceeded the necessary limit.
A sudden snowstorm was coming, and it was so cold that it could freeze someone to death. He didn't even want to go into the mountains.
Zhu Qiniang said calmly: "I've taken you with me every day and you're not tired yet, but you're not willing anymore."
"Qiniang, I was wrong. I wasn't unwilling, I just thought it was too cold and I had to rest for two days." Gao Xian quickly admitted his mistake and apologized.
"Heavy snow seals the mountains, monsters and beasts will hide in their dens and not go out, and medicinal materials will be covered by the snow. No one will go into the mountains in such weather."
Zhu Qiniang said seriously: "I came to you to remind you of something. Winter is here, and all the cultivators in the mountains will return to Pegasus to spend the winter.
"There are at least several thousand cultivators living deep in Tengshe Mountain. This group of cultivators is lawless. If they come to settle in Pegasus, they will definitely cause chaos. You must be careful..."
The cultivators who live in Pegasus Ji will not go too far into the mountains. These cultivators in Pegasus Ji are all very law-abiding and will not mess around.
This group of cultivators who have been active in Tengshe Mountain all year round is different. They lack respect for Pegasus and are even more brutal and cruel in their actions.
Every year after winter comes, these cultivators will cause a lot of trouble when they enter the Pegasus Fair.
As soon as Zhu Qiniang saw the blizzard falling from the sky, she knew that the group of cultivators in the mountains were coming back.
She came here specifically to remind Gao Xian because she was afraid that Gao Xian didn't understand the situation and thought Pegasus Ji was as safe as before.
What bothered Gao Xian the most was this uncontrolled chaos. He said, "Qiniang, I want to move, to the side of the long street. It's safer there anyway."
Pegasus is just a long street, which divides Pegasus into two parts from south to north.
All shops such as Changshengtang, Lingfutang, and Baibingtang are located on this long street. Casual monks also go to the long street to set up stalls.
To put it simply, Long Street is the commercial center of Pegasus, where there are the most people, the busiest place, and the safest place.
Zhu Qiniang nodded: "That's good. There are patrol teams patrolling the long street day and night, which is safer."
She said: "Let me ask for you, but the rent for houses near Long Street is very expensive. It costs at least five spiritual stones a month."
Gao Xian nodded: "That's okay. I've earned two hundred spiritual stones during this period."
I followed Zhu Qiniang into the mountains every day to collect medicinal materials. I didn't make much money by hunting monsters, but I made more than two hundred spiritual stones by killing cultivators.
Tiangui Dan and Lu Jiao San are so popular that it is difficult to earn two hundred spiritual stones in a month. I have to say that money comes quickly.
Zhu Qiniang is very mobile and found a house in a few days.
The monthly rent for the house is seven spiritual stones. It is also winter, and all the cultivators in the mountains have returned to Pegasus, so the price has increased.
The price is really expensive. Although the house is nice, it is actually not valuable. The only value is that it is located in the central area and is relatively safer.
The mud house where Gao Xian lived only cost one spiritual stone per month. The rent was paid by the drug store, so he didn't have to pay for it.
Gao Xian followed and took a look. The courtyard was located behind Lingfu Hall, diagonally facing the back entrance of Lingfu Hall.
The east and west wing rooms and the three main rooms are all blue brick and large tiled buildings. They are very clean and comfortable to look at.
There are wells, cellars, warehouses, and toilets in the yard.
It is still much smaller than Lingfu Hall, but it is spacious enough for him to live alone.
The houses here all belong to the Lianyun Sect and are managed by Li Shuanglin, a foundation builder. They are only rented and not sold.
After seeing it, Gao Xian thought it was pretty good. The price was very expensive, but he recently made a fortune, which was enough for him to live here for two years. Not to mention that his elixirs sold very well.
After careful consideration, Gao Xian signed the contract on the spot.
Pressing three to pay three, a total of forty-two spiritual stones were handed over.
"The alchemy room needs to remodel the flue, stack bricks, and purchase charcoal, burning materials, furniture, and various daily necessities, etc."
Zhu Qiniang calculated: "It will take about twenty days to complete."
"During this period, please stay at home and avoid going out."
Gao Xian was a little embarrassed and said: "I don't need you to do these trivial matters. Don't you have a brother from the same family? I think he is reliable. Let him run for me. I will give him the spirit stone..."
Zhu Qiniang thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, the Zhu family will be arriving by airship in a few days. There will be a lot of things going on."
Gao Xian asked a little worriedly: "Are you okay?"
"People like the Zhu family just want to take away the Changsheng Hall. After Lao Zhu dies, this medicine shop belongs to me. If they want to take it away, they can buy it with spiritual stones."
Zhu Qiniang was very indifferent, but Gao Xian knew that the matter was not that simple. He said seriously: "Qiniang, no matter what happens, I will always be with you."
Zhu Qiniang said with a complicated expression: "Don't say forever, there are no unchanging people or things in the world."
Gao Xian was a little unhappy: "Qiniang, I remember all the good things you did to me! I didn't make random promises!"
"Don't worry, it's okay, I can handle it."
Zhu Qiniang saw that Gao Xian was so serious. She pondered for a moment and said, "Zhu Changsheng, the great cultivator of the Zhu family's foundation, is in retreat. I don't know when he will be able to come out. Without his support, the Zhu family would not dare to act recklessly."
When Zhu Qiniang left, Gao Xian felt not very good, and things in the Zhu family seemed to be a bit troublesome.
Thinking about it, Changshengtang is one of the most profitable businesses in Pegasus Ji. With such a huge benefit, the Zhu family will definitely get it.
After all, Zhu Qiniang is an outsider. Shopkeeper Zhu is dead again, so the Zhu family will definitely not trust her.
Gao Xian sighed. This kind of matter involves the Zhu family and the Lianyun Sect. They are all beyond his reach. He can't help even if he wants to.
Daniel soon came to find Gao Xian. Gao Xian explained the matter in detail and wrote a list to Daniel.
This young man looks a bit naive, but he is a first-level Qi practitioner and a Hunyuan Golden Body practitioner. Qiniang said that this boy is very good at fighting and reliable in his work.
Gao Xian gave Daniel ten spiritual stones and asked him to take care of it first. If he didn't have enough money, he would come back to him.
Da Niu is quite willing to help with errands, selling medicine and stocking up medicinal materials in the drug store every day, but it's actually very boring.
Gao Xian was always very kind to him and would give him something every time he came back from the mountains.
Either magic talismans or monster meat, never empty-handed.
Daniel looked naive, but he could tell clearly whether others were good or bad to him. He felt that Gao Xian was a good person, and he was willing to follow Gao Xian to do things.
With Da Niu helping him run errands, Gao Xian can also make elixirs at home with peace of mind.
The pile of medicinal materials at home was inconvenient to transport, so I simply turned them into elixirs.
Gao Xian had a storage bag. Although it was not big, it was more than enough for storing pills.
After working for more than ten days, I refined all the stored medicinal materials into elixirs.
This was also a great improvement in his alchemy skills. It was extremely easy to refine these low-level elixirs, and he could produce more than a thousand elixirs at one time.
This time, a total of 4,000 deer horn powders, 4,000 Tiangui Pills, 1,000 Guyuan Pills, Bailu Pills, and 1,000 Qi-Reviving Pills were made.
After finishing all the medicinal materials, Gao Xian breathed a sigh of relief.
While he was having nothing to do, Zhou Yuling happened to come to see him. Because he was very busy during this period, he had not seen Zhou Yuling for more than a month.
"Yuling, you're here, you miss me so much."
Gao Xian came up and reached out for a hug. Zhou Yuling pointed her finger at Gao Xian's chest to stop him. She smiled and said, "If I don't come to you, can't you come to me?"
"I'm not afraid that our father will see something wrong." Gao Xian and Zhou Yuling have become familiar with each other, and he has no worries about speaking.
"Bah, that's my dad."
Zhou Yuling blushed a little when Gao Xian said that. She spat lightly, but her heart was warm and indescribably happy.
When Gao Xian saw Zhou Yuling's shy and beautiful appearance, he couldn't help but hug Zhou Yuling hard.
"What are you doing?"
"It's too cold, let me help you get rid of the cold!"
This answer was very greasy like that of a middle-aged social animal. Zhou Yuling couldn't help but laugh out loud. She didn't resist anymore and allowed Gao Xian to hug her tightly.
