pThe long whip is extremely fast and has a tricky angle. He is actually a whip master. Long Chen could have avoided it, but with the little girl in his hand, it was inconvenient to move around./p
p couldn't help but feel angry. At this moment, it was too late to escape. He held the little girl in his arms, using his spiritual power to protect his whole body, preparing to use his own arms to catch the whip./p
pAt this moment, a huge figure stood in front of Long Chen./p
p"pop"/p
p There was an explosion, and Ah Man in front of Long Chen grinned. It was Ah Man who blocked the whip with his back./p
p"Boom"/p
pLong Chen's eyes felt cold. When he was about to see the person who made the move, the cart had already sped away./p
pBut there was a soft chirp, and the man was obviously surprised by Aman's appearance, but he didn't stop./p
p "Aman, are you okay?" Long Chen suppressed the anger in his heart and asked./p
p "Brother Long, I'm fine. I've been beaten a lot since I was little, and I've learned it through practice a long time ago," Ah Man said carelessly./p
pHowever, the clothes behind him were torn, and a long bloodstain appeared on his broad back, and the blood was slowly flowing down along the wound./p
pAt this moment, a woman suddenly hugged the little girl and cried bitterly. She hurriedly came to say thank you to Long Chen and Aman./p
pAman smiled naively, and Long Chen softly comforted the little girl for a few words, and then left./p
p However, Long Chen was filled with anger. He dared to whip me while walking through the busy city in public. I want to take a closer look. How much hair has grown on your gallbladder?/p
pAlthough Aman's injuries are bloody and scary, they are just skin injuries and are not serious./p
pThis made Long Chen couldn't help but be surprised by Aman's terrifying body. The person who took action was extremely powerful, but he only scratched a little of Aman's skin./p
pWhile the two of them were walking, Ah Man's stomach suddenly growled, like thunder. Long Chen was stunned, and suddenly realized that there was a bun shop next to him, and the smell of meat came from him./p
p Aman looked embarrassed and said: "Brother Long, I'm not hungry"/p
p "It's okay, I'm hungry, let's sit on the bottom first"/p
pLong Chen brought Ah Man to the bun shop and found a table. After the two sat down, Long Chen threw a gold coin directly to the boss and said: "Take out all the buns in your shop"/p
p "Brother Long, I'm really not hungry, um, actually I just need to eat rice," Ah Man said hurriedly./p
p Because countless experiences have proven that people who have seen him eat have basically broken up with him, and Aman is afraid of making the same mistake again./p
p "Aman, if you can block the whip for me, you are my brother. I, Long Chen, can also block the whip for you. So, in the future, don't say things that brothers shouldn't say." Long Chen said very seriously
./p
pFor a person who is willing to be a whip for himself after just knowing him for a while, he deserves to be recognized as a brother by Long Chen./p
p"Brother Long...I..."/p
pAman suddenly covered his face and cried loudly. After so many years of wandering around, he felt warmth for the first time, and it was the first time someone was so kind to him./p
p "Good brother, don't cry. From now on, we brothers will only sweat and bleed, and we will never shed tears again. Tearing is the behavior of a coward." Long Chen patted Ah Man on the shoulder and said./p
p "Okay, Brother Long, I listen to you. I will do whatever you ask me to do," Ah Man said, wiping away his tears./p
pLong Chen wanted to say that he would have some opinions of his own, but when he thought that he could build someone else's well into a chimney, he swallowed his words./p
pAt this moment, the big steamer of the steamed stuffed bun shop owner had been carried over. Long Chen smiled and said: "Aman, it's so delicious. Brother Long has a lot of money in his pocket, so you don't need to save it for me."/p
p"um"/p
p Ah Man nodded, no longer polite, and took one bite of fist-sized buns, like a shooting star chasing the moon./p
pAlthough he was prepared, Long Chen was still shocked by Aman's appetite. In the entire bun shop, more than three hundred meat buns were eaten, and Aman seemed to be a little unsatisfied./p
pBut the owner of the bun shop looked sad. All the buns had been brought. If they were freshly made and steamed, it would be too late./p
pMore than three hundred steamed buns, only six silver coins, but when the boss asked for change to give Long Chen, Long Chen had already left with Ah Man./p
pLong Chen returned home and took Aman to meet his mother first. Mrs. Long was also shocked by Aman's figure at first./p
p However, seeing that Aman was honest and loyal, he felt relieved. When Long Chen told Aman's life experience, Mrs. Long agreed and let Aman stay./p
p After settling Ah Man, Long Chen directly started refining the medicine. He made the medicine at his own home without so many worries. He maximized the power of his soul and increased the speed of the alchemy to the extreme./p
pIt took three whole days before Long Chen came out of the room. For three days and three nights, he kept refining. Long Chen had nearly a hundred Fengfu Pills in his hands, and all of them were of middle grade./p
pIn addition to the Fengfu Pill, Long Chen also refined the Blood Coagulation Pill, Qi Gathering Pill, Poison Avoidance Pill, etc. which are very popular in the market. These are all used to sell to the guild to offset the medicinal materials purchased on credit./p
pWhen Long Chen just walked out of the room, Bao'er had already walked over with a somewhat uneasy expression. Long Chen couldn't help but said in surprise: "Bao'er, what's wrong?"/p
p "Master... this..." Bao'er said a little awkwardly./p
p "Just tell me if you have anything to say" Long Chen smiled./p
p "It's like this, now... there is nothing... edible in the house," Bao'er said a little uneasily./p
p Ah Man is really delicious. Mrs. Long knew that Ah Man had a pitiful background, so she specially asked the kitchen to make more food./p
p In the end, after three days, almost all the Long family's food for more than a month was eaten. Mrs. Long secretly took out another piece of jewelry and asked Bao'er to sell it./p
pBaoer thought it would be better to discuss this matter with Long Chen, so he came to see Long Chen./p
pLong Chen laughed, pinched Bao'er's little face and said: "Little girl, that's right, you've learned to be smart, I will solve this matter"/p
p Bao'er is Long Chen's personal maid. The Long family is so poor that she is reluctant to leave. Long Chen has long regarded her as his sister./p
p "Master, there is no food for tonight," Bao'er reminded. After all, she is the housekeeper of the entire Long family. Mr. Accountant probably feels that there is no way out in the Long family and has already left./p
p "Well, I got it, I'll do it right now"/p
pLong Chen still had a few gold coins in his hand, but they were only small coins. He called Aman up and went out together, heading straight to the Alchemist Guild./p
p Calling Aman out does not have much purpose. Long Chen wants to exercise his brain. Wisdom is related to experience and needs to be improved./p
p Entering the Alchemist Guild, Long Chen went directly to the pharmacy. When Long Chen handed dozens of full pills to the medicine boy, the medicine boy was almost frightened./p
p He clearly remembered that Long Chen only took away the medicinal materials three days ago, so why did he come to return the elixir today? The normal time for returning elixirs is about half a year to a year, which is too fast./p
pHowever, even though I was shocked, I still very dedicatedly tested each pill one by one with professional instruments./p
pSeventeen medium-grade elixirs and thirty-six low-grade elixirs. Even though he is extremely confident in his inspection skills, he still almost doubts himself./p
pAfter repeatedly confirming that everything is correct, after offsetting the medicinal materials that Long Chen had advanced last time, there is still a portion of the elixir left./p
p "Teacher Long Chen, are you going to continue to exchange the remaining elixirs for medicinal materials, or exchange them for gold coins?" the medicine boy said respectfully./p
pIt feels good to be called a teacher. Long Chen said: "Exchange them all into gold coins"/p
p"Okay, please wait"/p
pThe medicine boy hurriedly pulled out a booklet, which contained the latest market prices for elixirs. He wanted to settle accounts with Long Chen according to the above standards./p
p "Teacher Long Chen, the total is 8.17 million gold coins," the medicine boy said./p
pLong Chen nodded, the Alchemist Guild is a non-profit guild, the price is very fair, it is only slightly lower than the market price by 10%, but you can enjoy so many benefits, it is very worth it./p
p "Exchange it for me into two crystal cards, one for two million, and put the rest together," Long Chen said./p
pWhen Long Chen returned home, Bao'er was already guarding the door:/p
p "Master, Mr. Shi Feng has sent you an invitation." After saying that, he handed Long Chen a red invitation./p
pLong Chen opened it and couldn't help but smile. It turned out that Shi Feng came out of seclusion, broke through the blood coagulation realm, and held a banquet for everyone in Juying Building. The days are almost here./p
p "Bao'er, here, take good care of the house. From now on, the young master I will buy you a generous dowry and marry you off in a glorious way." Long Chen smiled and thrust a crystal card to Bao'er./p
p Baoer’s face was red, but when he saw the number on it, he couldn’t help but cover his lips with his small hand, with a look of disbelief on his face./p
p "Little rich woman, from now on the improvement work of the Long family will be left to you. By the way, go and redeem all the jewelry that my mother pawned. Even if it costs ten times the price, it's no problem," Long Chen said.
/p
p "Yeah, don't worry, young master, Bao'er will definitely do it well." Bao'er patted his still erect chest and assured./p
pLong Chen nodded and went straight to Juying Building with Aman./p
pJuying Restaurant is a very famous restaurant in the imperial capital. People who eat here are either rich or noble. The main reason is that the name of the restaurant is very grand and the food is good, so it has become a favorite gathering place for the princes and nobles./p
pOn the top floor of Juying Building, a huge round table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, but everyone was just chatting and had no intention of using their chopsticks./p
pSuddenly I saw a figure walking in, and everyone stood up quickly:/p
p"Brother Long"/p
p "Brother Long"/p
p"Long Ye"/p
pShi Feng, Fatty Yu and others all have different names, but when they saw Ah Man behind Long Chen, they couldn't help but be shocked./p
pShi Feng was already a strong man, but in front of Aman, he became a little boy./p
p "Let me introduce to you, this is my brother Aman"/p
p As soon as everyone heard Long Chen’s introduction, they hurriedly said hello to Ah Man, but Ah Man could only nod and giggle./p
p When Long Chen arrived, everyone sat down. Shi Feng raised his glass with both hands and said: "Brother Long, I won’t say any more. I, Shi Feng, will do it first as a courtesy."/p
p Shi Feng kept his gratitude to Long Chen deeply in his heart. It originally took several years to advance to coagulation, but now it is completed ahead of schedule. It will be of great help to him in the future, and he is expected to enter a higher realm./p
p"We also offer a bowl to Brother Long"/p
p Yu Fatty took the lead and everyone stood up. They got the medicinal liquid prepared by Long Chen and soon sensed the aura of heaven and earth. Fatty Yu and Hou Tianming, the thin monkey, were both at the first level of Qi Gathering.
Damn it./p
pAll of this was carried out by Long Chen, and everyone was full of gratitude to Long Chen./p
p"Okay, cheers"/p
pLong Chen laughed, no matter what, these people helped him in times of crisis, and Long Chen also regarded them as friends./p
pAfter a few glasses of wine, everyone started chatting, but Ah Man was the only one who kept his head down and ate wildly without saying a word./p
pLong Chen paid special attention to Shi Feng and asked him to order more dishes, but fortunately before Aman came, he had already asked him to be at the bottom, otherwise he would have scared Fatty and others to death./p
pAfter three rounds of drinking, everyone mentioned their current treatment and couldn't help but feel very happy. Now they can all practice cultivation, and their status in the family has increased./p
p More importantly, the news that Long Chen is an alchemy disciple has spread almost throughout the entire imperial capital, and everyone knows about the relationship between Fatty Yu and others and Long Chen./p
pSo their respective families secretly asked them to establish a good relationship with Long Chen, which made everyone feel proud./p
pEveryone was talking when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps. Shi Feng frowned slightly and said: "I have clearly taken care of it with the boss. I have taken over the entire floor. How come there are still people coming up?"/p
p "Forget it, it will be more lively when there are more people. Happiness needs to be shared by others." Fatty Yu was obviously drunk and his tongue was a bit big./p
pAt this moment, a voice came: "Tell everyone here to get out, I don't want to dine with a group of despicable people"/p
pLong Chen, who was drinking alcohol calmly, suddenly turned cold and the veins on his palms popped out./p
