Chapter 64(1/2)
Fan Ming became even more confused after hearing this. After a slight hesitation, Fan Ming asked:
"But I remember that I never told the shopkeeper my name..."
Shopkeeper Zhu laughed when he heard this and said, "Who said you need your real name? It's okay to give it a code name."
"That's it..." Fan Ming couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He thought that his true identity had been exposed. If he was targeted by someone because of this, he would be in trouble.
After seeing Fan Ming's reaction, shopkeeper Zhu said with a smile: "The first batch of pills that little friend sold to us were still in a state of being ignored at first, but I have never seen the pills that little friend refined.
The medicines are excellent in all aspects. Not only are the erysipelas smaller than those made by ordinary alchemists, but especially some of the first-line elixirs are almost as effective as those of the second-line elixirs, so there will soon be more repeat customers.
Get up, the batch of pills that my friend sent last time was sold out in just three days. I have been looking forward to your arrival for a long time..."
After Fan Ming was silent for a while, he said: "I am just a young alchemist who has just started, and I can't afford to be so ridiculously praised by Shopkeeper Zhu."
Shopkeeper Zhu laughed and said: "It is a good thing for young people to be modest, but it is not good to be too modest! Although I don't know much about alchemy, but I think that at this age and with this level of cultivation, my little friend,
Having mastered such a superb alchemy technique, my future achievements may be immeasurable... Haha, it is also an honor for me to make friends with a future great alchemist!"
Fan Ming quickly stood up and said: "I hope the shopkeeper won't flatter me, I'm still far from being a great alchemist or something like that!"
"That's all, I'd better sit down, little friend." Shopkeeper Zhu said while shaking his head.
Fan Ming hesitated after hearing this, but sat down again.
Shopkeeper Zhu picked up the steaming tea cup in front of him and took a sip, then asked: "By the way, little friend, you still don't know what code name I gave you, right?"
Fan Ming hesitated after hearing this, then nodded and said, "I really don't know."
"Mysterious genius alchemist, what do you think? Speaking of which, I gave you the code name." Shopkeeper Zhu said with a smile.
Real or not... Fan Ming immediately fell silent after hearing this. This name was just putting him on the fire!
Fortunately, not many people know that this so-called "mysterious genius alchemist" is themselves.
"I don't know this person." Fan Ming replied coldly.
Shopkeeper Zhu laughed, and then said: "My little friend is indeed a wonderful person..."
Having said this, he paused, seemed to remember something, and continued:
"By the way, I almost forgot, I haven't asked anyone to prepare the materials to open the cave yet."
After speaking, he raised his arms and clapped his hands.
"Pop!"
As soon as the applause ended, a female cultivator walked in.
The female cultivator said expressionlessly:
"Shopkeeper, what are your orders?"
"This distinguished guest needs some materials to open up the cave. Just follow the instructions above and prepare them." As soon as Shopkeeper Zhu finished speaking, he threw something out of his hand.
Fan Ming could only see that it was something similar to jade, but he didn't know what it was specifically.
After receiving the thing, the female cultivator bowed and retreated.
After a while, Fan Ming said: "After deducting the cost of purchasing the materials to open the cave, I can ask the shopkeeper to help me replace all the rest with spiritual plants!"
"Of course there is no problem with this... But I just remembered something. I wonder if you are interested?" While speaking, shopkeeper Zhu glanced at Fan Ming with interest.
Hearing this, Fan Ming hesitated and asked, "I'd like to hear the details!"
Shopkeeper Zhu chuckled and said, "That's it. Later today, our Yinshan Pavilion will hold a regular auction. Do you want to participate?"
"Auction?" When Fan Ming heard this, he felt slightly interested.
No wonder there are many more people in Fangshi today than before. It turns out to be for this reason.
After thinking for a moment, Fan Ming raised his head and asked:
"Are you eligible to participate in this auction?"
Although Fan Ming doesn't know much about auctions in the world of immortality, auctions are the same everywhere, and there is still a threshold required.
"Don't worry, if you are interested, I can make the decision!" Shopkeeper Zhu said meaningfully.
That means he is not qualified... After hesitating for a moment, Fan Ming shook his head and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the shopkeeper. I currently have limited financial resources. Even if I participate in this auction, I will probably only watch it."
Shopkeeper Zhu smiled noncommittally.
Not long after, the female nun just walked in again, this time she had a storage bag in her hand.
"Guest, everything you need is inside. Please check it out." The female nun said expressionlessly.
Fan Ming glanced at her and thought that in his previous life, such a service attitude would probably not work...
How can any waiter keep a cold face when facing guests... Oh, by the way, except for some special places...
Such thoughts flashed through Fan Ming's mind, and then disappeared.
After Fan Ming took the storage bag, he checked it and after making sure it was OK, he transferred the things to his own storage bag, and then handed back the storage bag that did not belong to him.
You must know that this storage bag is worth a lot of spiritual stones. Although Fan Ming got one when he first entered the Spiritual Medicine Sect, in fact many casual cultivators cannot afford it or are reluctant to buy a storage bag.
Because the smallest storage bag is worth ten spiritual stones!
As the space of the storage bag becomes larger, the value of the storage bag increases exponentially. A large storage bag even requires hundreds or thousands of spirit stones.
After the female cultivator took back the storage bag, she turned around and left.
After the female cultivator left, Shopkeeper Zhu said, "Do you know how to use these materials for opening a cave?"

Fan Ming nodded when he heard this, and then said: "I know, I have done my homework before going down."
"That's good!" Shopkeeper Zhu nodded, and then continued: "By the way, as for the spiritual plants you want, they are all here."
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Zhu suddenly had a storage bag in his hand like a magic trick.
He put the storage bag on the table and pushed it in front of Fan Ming.
It turned out that it had been prepared a long time ago... Although Fan Ming was a little surprised, he still picked up the storage bag normally and checked it habitually.
But soon, his expression suddenly became more surprised.
Fan Ming looked up at Shopkeeper Zhu and asked, "Shopkeeper, this spiritual plant seems to be much more numerous than mine."
Shopkeeper Zhu smiled and said: "It's okay, just accept these spiritual plants first. It won't be too late to deduct them when you come to deliver elixirs next time."
Aren't you afraid that I will never come again... Fan Ming couldn't help but think so, but soon he realized the other party's intention.
Obviously, for this shopkeeper Zhu, the extra spiritual plant is not worth mentioning at all, so he doesn't care at all whether Fan Ming will come. If he doesn't come, he won't be at a loss, and he will not be at a loss.
You can use this to see clearly a person’s character...
Fan Ming sighed invisibly. He felt as if he was being manipulated. As expected, ginger is still hotter than ever.
After Fan Ming transferred all the spiritual plants in this storage bag to his own storage bag, he suddenly couldn't help but think that he seemed to have become a laborer...
Although it feels very uncomfortable to be a laborer, after all, I was a social animal in my previous life. Why did I still become a laborer after time travel? Didn’t I travel through time in vain?
But thinking that he could earn a lot of spiritual stones, Fan Ming didn't feel unhappy anymore...
◇◇◇◇◇◇
When Fan Ming came out of Yinshan Pavilion, he raised his head and glanced at the sky.
At this time, it was already getting late.
Fan Ming left Fangshi without staying much and returned to the direction of the Spiritual Medicine Sect.
However, what Fan Ming didn't know was that there was someone following him from a distance since he came out of Yinshan Pavilion...
Fan Ming didn't know all this, but out of his usual cautious habit, he did not use the flying magic weapon to fly back directly in the direction of the Spiritual Medicine Sect.
Because it was different from when he came here. He was not afraid of being followed when he came, but it would be different when he went back. Fan Ming didn't want anyone to associate him with the Spiritual Medicine Sect.
So the direction he chose from the beginning was completely different from the Spiritual Medicine Sect.
As soon as he left Yinling Zongfang City, Fan Ming randomly chose a direction. Because he had to take a long detour, if he used a flying magic weapon, Fan Ming was worried that it would consume too much mana and he would not be able to cope with any accidents along the way.
Come.
So he directly applied the Wind Wind Technique on his body, and then with a tap of his toes, the person floated several feet away. In this way, the person's clothes floated away gradually.
The cost of using Wind Rider to travel is much lower than that of using Flying Magical Artifact to travel, and it is also less likely to attract any attention.
Shortly after Fan Ming left Fangshi, a person appeared at the spot where he had just stayed. However, he did not immediately chase Fan Ming in the direction he left. Instead, he stood there, as if waiting for someone.<
/p>
Less than a minute later, three people hurried over.
As for the leader of the three, Fan Ming, if he were present, would definitely be able to recognize who he is, because this person is the Taoist priest named Xiu Jing.
At this moment, as soon as the Taoist cultivator saw the person waiting there, he immediately asked:
"Which direction did he go!"
The man standing waiting was wearing ordinary Orion clothes and had an ordinary appearance.
