"Five years ago, a friend of my grandfather came to him and told him that he had discovered an ancient ruins in the Yongzhu Mountain, and asked my grandfather to go with him.
My grandfather didn't think much about it, so he made an appointment with a few friends and headed to the ancient ruins together.
Just a few days later, he came back with those friends, and then my grandfather began to collect spiritual stones everywhere. He used these spiritual stones to buy many magic weapons and medicinal materials in Dan City, and refined many medicinal pills.
Then I left Dan City again..."
Su Xiaoxiao began to recall what happened to her grandfather back then, but she was still very young at that time. She only knew a lot of things, but didn't know why they were like that.
Luo Hao thought that the monks living in this courtyard had forcibly occupied Su Xiaoxiao's territory. Now it seems that it is really Su Xiaoxiao's grandfather Su Fugui who owes others a large amount of spiritual stones.
What Su Xiaoxiao and Luo Hao experienced were completely different, so she didn't think as much as Luo Hao thought, and she never thought about whether someone plotted against her grandfather.
She then spoke,
"After my grandfather went that time, he never came back, and several of his friends who went with him also never came back."
Luo Hao nodded and asked Su Xiaoxiao,
"Then who are the people living in this courtyard?"
"They all came to my grandfather to make elixirs before. At that time, my grandfather went around borrowing spirit stones, so these people were borrowed spirit stones by my grandfather. Some people were grateful to my grandfather for helping them make elixirs, so after my grandfather left,
They didn't come to ask for debts, but there were still some people who wanted me to repay the spiritual stones.
I have no spiritual stones to return to them, so I have to mortgage the yard."
Su Xiaoxiao answered in a low voice.
"Then how many spiritual stones do you still owe these people?"
"One million in total."
Luo Hao was a little speechless. He knew that the spiritual stones mentioned in Nanzhou generally referred to high-grade spiritual stones, and one million high-grade spiritual stones was just a little bit for him.
But for Su Xiaoxiao, even if she runs a street stall for a lifetime, she can't raise enough money to give it back to others.
"Where is Mount Zhuo? What kind of ancient ruins did your grandfather go to?"
Luo Hao felt that this mountain sounded a little weird, so he asked.
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and said,
"I don't know either, I've never been out of Dan City.
When my grandfather left, he said that he would definitely come back, so he told me not to leave Dan City to find him before he came back to Dan City.
I only accidentally heard my grandfather and a few of his friends talking about that relic, and it seemed to be some sort of 'advanced spiritual vein'."
Spiritual vein? Luo Hao's heart moved. Could this high-level spiritual vein that Su Xiaoxiao was talking about be a top-quality spiritual vein? He just needed spiritual veins to practice. If it was really a spiritual vein, then he wouldn't mind going to Yaozhu Mountain.
Take a look.
"Xiaoxiao, can you make elixirs?"
Luo Hao suddenly thought that Su Xiaoxiao's grandfather was an alchemist, so he thought that Su Xiaoxiao should be more or less good at alchemy.
Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and said,
"I don't know how to make alchemy. My grandfather never taught me how to make alchemy."
Although Luo Hao had some doubts in his heart, he didn't think much about it. Many alchemists and alchemy kings did not want their descendants to inherit their mantle of alchemy. After all, refining alchemy takes too much time and the cost is also very high.
.
The average alchemist's cultivation level is not very high, because they waste a lot of time on alchemy, so they have relatively less time to practice.
Of course, there are some genius monks who are not only good at alchemy, but also very powerful in cultivation, such as Chen Daming, whom Luo Hao knows, but relatively speaking, there are much fewer such genius monks, because no one wants to let such heaven-defying monks exist.
.
Luo Hao felt terrified when he thought of this. He thought that after participating in the Alchemy King Competition, he would find a secluded place to practice. He must improve his strength as soon as possible, otherwise he would wait until others discovered his secret.
, with his strength, there will be no scum left that will be swallowed up.
"What spiritual root are you?"
Luo Hao came to his senses, and then came up with the idea of taking Su Xiaoxiao as his apprentice.
The reason why Luo Hao wants to take Su Xiaoxiao as his apprentice is firstly because he sympathizes with Su Xiaoxiao, and secondly because he hopes to help Su Xiaoxiao grow up quickly. As long as Su Xiaoxiao has the ability to protect himself, then his mission will be over.
It's done.
"I am the three spiritual roots of metal, wood and water."
Su Xiaoxiao was a little confused as to what Luo Hao meant by asking her like this, but she felt that Luo Hao had no ill intentions, so she answered honestly.
To be exact, Su Xiaoxiao's spiritual roots are not good, and they are of the three elements of metal, wood, and water. This kind of spiritual root is not suitable for alchemy at all.
However, Luo Hao didn't care. He believed that his alchemy inheritance did not have strict requirements on spiritual roots.
What's more, he also has a kind of strange flame, which is the blue ghost fire. In the future, when Su Xiaoxiao achieves certain achievements, he can give the blue ghost fire to Su Xiaoxiao.
As for poor and impure spiritual roots, Luo Hao doesn't even care. There are three colorful lotus roots in his book of chaos. These three colorful lotus roots are raised by his spiritual veins. Who can be sure that he can't raise nine-colored lotus roots?
Lotus root?
Thinking of this, Luo Hao suddenly asked,
"I am actually a fifth-grade alchemy king. I admire your character very much. I want to accept you as my disciple. Are you willing?"
"Ah, senior is actually a fifth-grade alchemy king?"
Su Xiaoxiao just said one sentence, then remembered what Luo Hao said later, and immediately cursed herself for being so stupid. She knelt down and spoke without even thinking,
"Xiaoxiao is willing to take senior as his teacher."
At the same time, Su Xiaoxiao also understood why this senior was so gentle and kind to her. It turned out to be because he admired her personality.
Originally, it was Luo Hao's impromptu idea to accept Su Xiaoxiao as his disciple. However, when he saw that Su Xiaoxiao actually accepted him as his disciple, Luo Hao suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. He seemed to feel that he was not doing enough by doing this.
wrong.
Luo Hao casually picked up Su Xiaoxiao and spoke,
"My real name is Luo Hao, but now I also have some enemies. If anyone asks me my name, just say my name is Hao Luo."
Luo Hao was speechless that he changed his name to Hao Luo just to avoid his enemies, or because he was not strong enough. When will he be able to use the name Luo Hao uprightly?
Although Su Xiaoxiao was a little confused, she didn't ask any more questions.
The sudden addition of a master made her feel a lot better, such as a sense of peace of mind, as if she had nothing to fear as long as Luo Hao was there, and a sense of satisfaction that she had someone to rely on.
Before, she was earning spiritual stones every day, and then used the earned spiritual stones to pay off debts, and she had always been in this cycle.
He has no relatives, no friends, and no dreams. All he has is setting up a street stall and earning spiritual stones. Only after paying off her spiritual stones can he have the opportunity to think about other things.
"Master, why did you think of coming to the Alchemy King Competition?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked Luo Hao with some anticipation.
Luo Hao smiled slightly and said,
"Why are you looking forward to the Alchemy King Competition so much?"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and answered immediately,
"My grandfather's whole life was to participate in an Alchemy King Competition, but when he left, he was only a third-level alchemist, and there was still a long way to go before he could become a fourth-level Alchemy King.
My grandfather said that he would never even become the King of Alchemy in this life, and he also said that my qualifications were not suitable for alchemy, so he did not teach me alchemy. He did not want me to follow his path.
My grandfather doesn't expect to get any rankings, but he is not even qualified to participate in the Alchemy King Competition. If I can also participate in the Alchemy King Competition, even if I can't get any rankings, I can still gain something."
In fact, in Beizhou, a third-level alchemist already has a very high status, but in Nanzhou, especially in Dan City, a third-level alchemist is really nothing.
So it's normal for Su Xiaoxiao to have this idea, but Luo Hao still needs to do one thing next.
"We'll talk about the Dan King Competition later. I'll send all the idle people away in the yard first."
Although Luo Hao wanted to gain a foothold in Dan City by participating in the Alchemy King Competition, but now he doesn't even have a single horoscope.
Moreover, when he learned that Gu Yicheng's grandfather was the Dan King Elder of Dan City, he already had some bad feelings in his heart.
"Master, those tenants can't be sent away because I owe them spiritual stones."
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly became anxious when she heard that Luo Hao was going to send those people away.
This is Dan City. If she could bully people at will in Dan City, she would have been squeezed out of Dan City long ago and even lost her life. Although those people occupied her yard, they did not occupy it by force, but because
She owed them spiritual stones.
Luo Hao waved his hand,
"You don't have to worry about the rest. Just listen to me and call all those people out first."
Luo Hao stood in the courtyard, but after a while, Su Xiaoxiao only brought three people out.
One of them had a particularly impatient look on his face, and another had an even gloomier look on his face, as if he was going to attack Su Xiaoxiao at the next moment. If he hadn't been unable to see through Luo Hao's cultivation, he would have had an attack long ago.
Although the last person didn't say anything, he glanced at Luo Hao as soon as he came out, then stared at Su Xiaoxiao coldly and said,
"Miss Su, our time is limited. If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. You haven't returned a single spiritual stone to me this month, so I haven't bothered to ask you yet."
Su Xiaoxiao's face turned red, she lowered her head and spoke,
"I'm sorry, Senior Tian, my master has something to do with you."
"Your master?"
The three of them looked at Luo Hao again, but didn't say anything else.
They could see that Luo Hao's cultivation level was higher than theirs, but it didn't matter if he was higher. This was Dan City, not another place. If Luo Hao wanted to bully them based on his high cultivation level, he would be asking for death.
Luo Hao's consciousness scanned the other four rooms and saw that the four people inside still looked as if nothing had happened, as if to say, even if they didn't come out, what could Luo Hao do.
Luo Hao snorted coldly and launched four divine attacks towards the four people.
I saw four white lights coming to the consciousness of these four people very quickly. After these four people were attacked by Luo Hao's consciousness, they all spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then their faces became extremely pale.
At this moment, they already knew that Luo Hao in the yard was a master among masters, so they did not dare to stay in the room anymore, and immediately ran out, looking at Luo Hao with fear in their eyes.
This is because Luo Hao uses less than 10% of his spiritual consciousness attack. If he uses his current spiritual consciousness attack with all his strength, these people will become idiots even if they are not dead.
Seeing how strong Luo Hao was, the three people who came to the yard earlier were also a little panicked. Although Dan City has strict rules, if someone kills a few of them in this yard, even if they are punished by Dan City in the end, they will still be punished.
