Chapter 26 Conspiracy
Arriving in front of Mu Qing's courtyard, Lin Mu knocked gently on the door.
"Junior brother, so early?" Mu Qing smiled after opening the door.
Lin Mu took off the ring, handed it to her, and smiled: "All the one hundred materials have been refined, and a total of eighty bottles of Juling Dan have been refined."
Mu Qing happily took the storage ring, checked it, and found that what Lin Mu said was true, and her smile became even stronger.
"Thank you, junior brother, I will reward you again after I build my foundation." Mu Qing blinked and promised.
Lin Mu looked at her beautiful eyes, panicked, and felt overwhelmed. He hurriedly said: "Senior sister has paid the reward, I am satisfied."
After that, he hurriedly said goodbye and fled.
Mu Qing smiled slightly, closed the door, entered the courtyard, and went straight to a house on the left.
As soon as he entered, a voice rang out in the house: "How much?"
"Eighty bottles!" Mu Qing replied.
"The success rate is actually 80%. Is my guess really wrong?" the man asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Mu Qing shook the storage ring in his hand and smiled: "You are too suspicious. An 80% success rate in alchemy is enough to create a master."
The man sighed, as if extremely disappointed: "Maybe, there are indeed not many useless people like me."
The man who spoke looked very young, with fair skin, only about 20 years old.
If Lin Mu was here, he would definitely find that this man was of an age that was completely inconsistent with his appearance. This was an acquaintance of his. Zhang Ruoxu, the deacon disciple of Nuanyun Valley.
Mu Qing advised: "Don't think too much, where did so many treasures come from. If there were treasures, how could he still be alive? He would have been dead before we could make a move. Now, he has attracted the attention of several bigwigs in the sect. We must not act rashly to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Zhang Ruoxu let out a long sigh and said: "Lin Mu is extremely cautious in doing things. Even if he really has a treasure, he will definitely cover it up. If it were three months ago, we could still force him to question him, but now we have lost the opportunity. This time, he barely passed the test, but we still have to keep an eye on him. As long as he shows a flaw, we will snatch it away."
Mu Qing said: "Keep an eye on him, if it was before, it would be easy. But now, it is very difficult. Yunmeng used to obey me, but since she met Lin Mu, she is no longer on the same side with me. Although this girl is young, But she is kind-hearted and firm in her stance. I'm afraid it's impossible for her to help us monitor Lin Mu."
Zhang Ruoxu snorted coldly: "If she doesn't listen, just kill her quietly."
Mu Qing retorted: "It's easy to say. If someone really disappears in the sect for no reason, we will definitely be involved with the strength of the Law Enforcement Hall. Especially now that the Law Enforcement Hall is under the control of Luo Chen, with the strength of that madman, we can't act rashly."
Zhang Ruoxu stared at Mu Qing's eyes: "If it doesn't work, you can do it yourself."
Mu Qing shook his head and said: "My appearance has no effect on Lin Mu. He has never dared to look me in the eye. This person is completely different from those playboys. Besides, such a person is not worth my sacrifice."
The room suddenly fell into silence, only the sandalwood on the table was burning slowly, and the curling smoke lingered for a long time, and the faces of the two became hazy in the smoke.
After a long time, Zhang Ruoxu sighed: "All these years, all the intrigues have been in vain. Now, I find that I am no different from those I killed. I am just as miserable as them. I just have to live a few more years."
Mu Qing did not say anything. Zhang Ruoxu had said this to him no less than a hundred times. But every time he schemed against others, he was ruthless and ruthless, and he would cut off the roots. Mu Qing was completely used to it.
Mu Qing took the ring, took out the eighty bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills, put them on the table and said, "Let's divide these Gathering Spirit Pills. According to the agreement between you and me, you provide the materials, I pay the spirit stones, and we will each have half of these Gathering Spirit Pills."
Zhang Ruoxu's eyes flashed, and the previous decadence seemed to be all disguised. He said coldly: "I proposed the idea of testing him this time, and I also provided the materials. I should take the majority and you take the minority. You get thirty and I get fifty."
Mu Qing was not afraid of him at all: "If I hadn't come forward and promised such a high reward, do you think he would help you make pills? Besides, if the sect knew that you took advantage of your position to hide the materials for making pills, you wouldn't get a single bottle."
The two looked at each other coldly, and the room was immediately tense.
After looking at each other for a while, Zhang Ruoxu was defeated and compromised: "Forget it, half each. I'm old and don't want to compete with you young people."
Mu Qing ignored him, put away forty bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills, and left forty bottles on the table.
Zhang Ruoxu stopped talking nonsense, put the forty bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills into the storage bag, and left in a hurry.
…
Yun Meng looked at the bag of Gathering Spirit Pills that Lin Mu placed on the table, her eyes full of doubts: "Brother, are my three bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills in it?"
Lin Mu opened the package, and the thirty-six bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills piled up like a small mountain. He smiled and said to Yun Meng: "Three bottles are too few, these are all yours."
"Thirty-six bottles!" Yun Meng covered her mouth and exclaimed, then reacted and refused: "I only give you fifteen spirit stones, you can't buy so many."
"Other people's fifteen spirit stones can't buy it, but yours can." Lin Mu looked at Yun Meng and smiled.
Yun Meng's eyes were filled with mist, and she was so moved that she almost threw herself into Lin Mu's arms and cried. Of course, she almost did it, but she didn't take action.
"These spirit gathering pills are too expensive, I can't take them." Yun Meng refused flatly.
If you buy thirty-six bottles of spirit gathering pills in Baiwu Pavilion, you will have to spend one hundred and eighty low-grade spirit stones. Yun Meng only gave Lin Mu fifteen low-grade spirit stones, but got a return far more than ten times.
Lin Mu said firmly: "This is my intention, just accept it." Seeing that Yun Meng was unmoved, Lin Mu struck while the iron was hot: "These Soul Gathering Pills are not worth mentioning to me. If I want, I can refine more than a hundred bottles in less than ten days."
Yun Meng still hesitated and said: "But..."
Lin Mu interrupted her and said: "Don't say but, this is what you deserve. When I was seriously injured, you took care of me wholeheartedly for half a month. I have no way to repay you, so I can only use these Soul Gathering Pills to express my gratitude. If you don't accept it, you are just being mean to me and don't treat me as a friend."
"Okay." Yun Meng thought for a long time and finally agreed. Lin Mu's last words made her unable to refute.
Seeing that Yun Meng finally agreed, Lin Mu smiled slightly.
This kind girl, Lin Mu is full of gratitude to her, but he doesn't want to have anything to do with her because of this.
In Lin Mu's view, these Soul Gathering Pills are to repay a favor so that he no longer feels indebted to her.
But, can favors really be measured by material things?
Lin Mu has no answer to this question now.
