Chapter 136 Recruiting in disguise
Chapter 136: Disguised solicitation
During the days when Lin Zong was practicing wind powers in the middle of the road, he also spent a lot of time studying the medicine book obtained from the secret library.
Although it is just a primary knowledge, it just fits him as a medicine blind man. Looking closely, it actually makes him feel refreshed and helps him with his martial arts insights.
For more than ten days, with the help of Shi Hezi, he has made great progress. In Shi Hezi's words, he has reached the level of a second-level pharmacist.
There is basically no problem in refining some basic medicines. For example, Feizi Powder and Golden Sore Paste, Lin Zong got it right after he got started. It was not much difficult.
Although Lin Zong didn't know if this was talented, it could be seen from Shi Hezi's changing eyes that his achievements in alchemy must be extraordinary. Once Shi Hezi held him with his own hands and repeatedly advised him about the benefits of being an alchemist. It would be best if he needed a teacher's guidance and recommended himself to be his teacher.
Lin Zong refused without hesitation. He had no intention of staying in Xihe City for long. Besides, with his personality, he was not used to others being his teacher.
But even so, Shi Hezi never gave up. The look of looking at Lin Zong every day could almost melt Lin Zong. This made Lin Zong not dare to go to the alchemy hall to ask questions these days.
I don’t know if Shi Hezi’s attitude towards Lin Zong has changed, so he worked very hard when looking for dust grass and earthen mushrooms in Lin Zong. He found dust grass a few days ago. Although it cost Lin Zong nearly 10,000 taels of silver, Lin Zong was still very lucky.
After all, it was only a little bit of earthy spirit mushrooms to prepare the spiritual materials for refining the spirit pill. Lin Zong was also slightly relieved.
However, not everything made him happy. For example, the person he was looking for during this period has not yet fallen behind. Not only did he look for Tianjizi, but he also had the brother and sister who had skillfully sold the Martial Saint's Remaining Picture to Wang Rong.
It can be judged from the information Wang Rong told him that the brother and sister were in poverty and had no choice but to sell the ancestral martial saint's remnant picture to Wang Rong.
In this way, the siblings' ancestors may have something to do with He Yun. They even know the whereabouts of other martial saints.
However, Lin Zong had been busy for more than ten days and did not find any news about the brother and sister. It seemed as if it had evaporated from the world. Maybe he could get some specific news from Wang Rong, but he did not dare to ask blatantly. If the news of the Martial Saint Canon Picture was leaked, it would be a bad thing. He didn't want to be chased by people from all over the continent. He would rather keep it strictly confidential than reveal a little information.
Today, Lin Zong went to Hurricane Jiadaokou to try again, but the blue light spots were still not moving. Unfortunately, he came out of the Jiadaokou and encountered a figure outside that he had not seen for several days.
"Hehe. How about Brother Mu? Have you made progress today?" Wang Gu came to the valley entrance to wait for him, with a friendly smile.
Lin Zong smiled softly, "I feel that I have made some progress these days. I wonder if Brother Wang suddenly found me, is there something wrong?"
"Haha, nothing. I'm just wondering why I haven't seen Ling Mei these days? Just mention anything you need, don't be polite!" Wang Gu smiled and said with a tentative tone.
Lin Zong narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly: "My sister's illness is also known, and it is indeed not suitable to stay in the palace for a long time, so he gave it to a friend in the city to take care of him."
"Oh, that's right." Wang Gu nodded, "Ling Mei's condition really needs to be taken care of by a pharmacist. Haha, I just didn't expect that Brother Mu has friends in the pharmacy, so I want to take care of Ling Mei without any problems."
After saying that, Wang Gu looked at Lin Zong with a hint of envy. As long as he knew a pharmacist in the alchemy hall, not to mention that he would be more convenient for practicing medicine in the future, but more importantly, he made friends with the alchemy hall.
You should know that the Alchemy Hall is not only one of the largest forces in Feng'an Kingdom, but also the most extensive force in Feng'an Kingdom. Rumors have a close relationship with the super power Alchemy Pavilion. If you can use this to get on the line, it will basically be a shortcut climbing route. If Lin Zong knew a pharmacist in the Alchemy Hall, he would be introduced to the Alchemy Pavilion by chance and passed the Divine Edict Competition, then he would be selected into the Alchemy Pavilion 100%.
Lin Zong looked at Wang Gu's self-righteous speculation, and Xiaoxiao didn't explain anything. He also knew that frequent running to the alchemy hall these days would definitely arouse the Wang family's suspicion. However, Lin Zong wanted this effect, at least he would not treat his own problems as unscrupulously as at the beginning.
Seeing that Lin Zong had already agreed, Wang Gu's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile: "By the way. Brother Mu is going to inquire about the earthen mushrooms that he has already made a name for it."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Zong suddenly turned around and said happily: "Oh, have you found it?"
Wang Gu seemed very satisfied with Lin Zong's reaction and smiled and said, "Yes, we have received the exact news. And not far from here, we are trying to find a way to get it out."
Lin Zong was slightly stunned. Hearing the other party's tone, he seemed to have not yet obtained it. He pondered calmly for a moment before he slowly said: "Brother Wang said whatever he said, and say it out loud if there is any difficulty so that he can refer to it later."
"Well. That's it. When my father was sorting out books, he occasionally found a record that said that there were earthy mushrooms growing in the back mountain of my Wang family. The news is basically true. But Brother Mu also knew that this earthy mushroom usually grows thirty to forty meters deep underground, and the back mountain is dozens of miles in a radius. It is not possible to find such a earthy mushroom in a short time..."
Listening to Wang Gu's slow introduction, Lin Zong's joy gradually faded and he couldn't help but frown. Although he didn't know when the Wang family knew about this news or what purpose he had only said it now. But since he made up his mind to tell himself, it means that the news was probably true.
It’s just that such a large area still needs to be found in the soil layer thirty or forty meters underground, which is probably a waste of time and a lot of manpower and material resources.
Wang Gu’s meaning is very obvious. We have found news for you. As for whether you can dig it out, it depends on your attitude. If you are just for an outsider, the royal family will not use such a large amount of manpower and material resources. Even if Wang Gu and his son agree, they will be opposed by others in the mansion.
Lin Zong frowned and pondered for a while. Suddenly his eyes lit up, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
Wang Gu stood there leisurely, waiting for Lin Zong's choice. He had already discussed with his father when he came. Lin Zong was as talented as possible to come to their house. However, Lin Zong had always expressed that he was not hot or cold, so they did not take action and their minds gradually faded. After discovering that Lin Zong might have something to do with a pharmacist in the alchemy hall, this mind improved again.
If Lin Zong can have some connection with the Alchemy Hall, it is still worth it to give Lin Zong a certain amount of effort. That's why I told Lin Zong about the earth spirit mushrooms.
They guessed that Lin Zong must have surrendered to their Wang family for 80% of his sister's condition in exchange for material and manpower in search of spiritual materials. At that time, they could win over the pharmacists Lin Zong knew and even train them to become people from their royal family.
But they didn't know that the pharmacist Lin Zong knew was not an ordinary pharmacist. Even when facing His Majesty the King, even the True Man Qingfeng or the Master Zhiyang, Shi Hezi was qualified to have equal dialogue. How could he care about his Wang family's recruitment?
Moreover, they underestimated Lin Zong's personality too much. Even if they really needed spiritual materials like earthen mushrooms, they would not surrender to their Wang family. They would rather go to other places to look for it.
Lin Zong had a smile on his lips, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he smiled at Wang Gu, who was full of confidence, and said, "Brother Wang. Can you tell me where the earth spirit mushroom is located? Don't bother the people in the mansion, let me go and have a look first?"
Wang Gu frowned, thinking that Lin Zong would not give up. But thinking about it would be fine, he would lead him over to see how big the place was and how hard it was to find it underground. After letting him give up, he would naturally surrender to his Wang family.
Under the leadership of Wang Gu, Lin Zong climbed over a mountain range. Then Wang Gu pointed to a large area of mountains dozens of miles ahead and said, "It's just here, the place is too big. I don't know which mountain range the earthen mushrooms are under. If you want to find them, you need at least nearly a thousand people and use sharp tools to dig them for a long time."
Wang Gu said, smiling, ready to look at Lin Zong's bitter face. After a while, he did not find another expression except for seeing the confidence in Lin Zong's face. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Lin Zong grabbed the mountain, felt the hardness of the land, and turned around and smiled, "It's enough to find some people and soldiers to find the earthen mushrooms. Brother Wang, can you please go back and find 20 people and soldiers?"
