Chapter 334: Listening to the Master's words is better than refining pills for ten years

"How many spiritual stones?"

Xu Feng collected his thoughts and went to the edge of the square with the 'scalper' in tacit understanding to discuss the price.

"Not expensive, five thousand."

"Well, you really dare to ask for a high price. Five thousand for something? Have you never seen spiritual stones?"

It's not that he can't afford this price, but he doesn't want to be treated as a big scapegoat.

The 'scalper' didn't get angry when he heard this. He had worked here for so many years and had seen all kinds of cultivators. Compared with those who took direct action, Xu Feng's attitude was good.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, you can't say that.

You see, you need to go on stage, and I happen to have extra number tickets in my hand. It's something we both want, so how can you blame me for asking a high price?

Think about it, if you want to go on stage with the tickets in your hand, you will probably have to wait for several years, but if you take the tickets in my hand that are ranked at the top, you can go on stage today.

With that said, do you think this price is reasonable?"

Looking at the 'scalpers' who were talking eloquently and fooling around, Xu Feng was speechless. How could I get the number tickets that were ranked so low? Don't you know?

If it weren't for you ticket scalpers who took away the tickets ranked at the top, why would I have to wait for several years.

But he was just thinking about this in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it out loud. He dared to do such a thing under the eyes of the Jidan Sect. Who would believe that they had no backers?

Xu Feng was unfamiliar with the place. If he offended these guys, he would definitely not have a good ending.

"Five thousand is too expensive, can it be cheaper?"

"It can't be cheaper, I won't hide it from you, this price is not set by me, but by the higher-ups, I can't do anything about it!"

The 'scalper' was a skilled actor, and Xu Feng was no pushover either. Hearing what he said, he immediately turned around and walked away, muttering as he walked:

"I finally came to Song State, and I was thinking about taking a walk around the lecture platform, but I didn't expect the price to be so expensive. I can only forget it, it's not a must anyway."

The 'scalper' who had been staring at him heard all of this, and seeing that the customer who finally came was about to slip away, he couldn't help but speak.

"Fellow Daoist, don't be so anxious to leave! I just thought about it, five thousand spirit stones is indeed a bit high, how about selling it to you for four thousand spirit stones."

The 'scalpers' all looked at the person and when they heard that Xu Feng didn't have a very urgent desire to go on stage, the price naturally dropped. There was also a risk in their ticket scalping. If the number today couldn't be sold, it would be invalid tomorrow.

"Four thousand is still too expensive. I thought about it carefully and it's not worthwhile to spend several thousand spirit stones to go on stage and listen to a lecture. Daoist friend, goodbye."

Xu Feng has mastered the trick of playing hard to get in his years as a shopkeeper.

When the 'scalper' saw that he was really going to leave, he immediately stopped him again. In the end, the two sides pulled each other and finally completed the transaction at the price of 2,400 spirit stones.

After putting away the spirit stones, the 'scalper' smiled and pointed directly at the high platform:

"Go up quickly, Daoist friend, I promise that your trip will be worthwhile. The one who is giving a lecture on the stage today is not only a famous third-level top-grade alchemist, but also a third-level top-grade spiritual plant master.

If you are lucky enough, you will have the opportunity to personally ask him a difficult question about alchemy and spiritual medicine."

Xu Feng, who originally didn't care about the 'scalper's nagging, was about to interrupt him impatiently. When he heard the last sentence, his eyes lit up.

"Daoyou, wait, what did you say just now? The master who is giving the lecture is also a third-level high-quality spiritual plant master? Then, how can I ask him a question?"

Hearing this question, 'Huang Niu' lowered his head and pondered for a few breaths, and finally shook his head helplessly:

"Generally speaking, after the master finishes talking about the knowledge of the alchemy, he will randomly select three people to answer their questions. No one can interfere with this, and it depends on luck."

"Okay, Daoyou, I won't bother you anymore, I'll go."

The flying knife was sacrificed, Xu Feng jumped up, and in a blink of an eye he had stepped onto the high platform.

The futon on the high platform was densely packed with people. At this moment, the alchemy conference was in progress, and everyone was listening fascinatedly, and no one noticed him coming.

Raising his hand to look at the position on the number ticket-the fifth seat in the third row, Xu Feng sat there while trying not to disturb others, and then imitated others and listened carefully to the third-level alchemist sitting in the air to teach the knowledge of alchemy.

"Today we mainly talk about the control of the temperature when refining the elixir. Regardless of the level of the elixir master, the control of the temperature is crucial. If the temperature is not enough, the essence of the elixir will inevitably not be extracted, resulting in a smaller number of elixirs. If the temperature is too high, the essence of the elixir will be at risk of burning. These are all things that need to be paid attention to." Next, the alchemy master with long eyebrows and white hair began to share his various tips on controlling the temperature with everyone, and everyone was fascinated by it, and Xu Feng was no exception. Listening to the master's words is better than refining elixir for ten years! Immersed in the ocean of knowledge, time always passes very quickly. Just when everyone was still interested, the master sitting on the futon in the air suddenly stopped talking. Turning his head to look around, he found that no one raised any objections to the listening crowd. Xu Feng understood that this might be normal. Sure enough, the master holding the whisk suddenly waved it gently, and then asked: "Do you have any questions that need to be answered? If you have any, just ask."

Even though Xu Feng had been reminded by the ‘scalper’ before, he still didn’t know the ins and outs of it. The first two opportunities to ask questions were snatched by other quick-eyed monks.

When the master answered the second question and waved the whisk in his hand again, Xu Feng raised his right hand as high as possible at lightning speed.

Seeing the master’s eyes looking at the crowd, Xu Feng’s heart was in his throat, fearing that he would lose the opportunity to ask questions.

After hesitating for a long time, the master finally pointed the whisk at him, indicating that he should ask questions.

“Hello, Master Lin, I am from Wei State. The question I want to ask you this time is that there are usually some strange and bizarre spiritual medicines in the pill formula, which live in special environments. How to solve this situation?”

He asked about the mayfly, which made him very embarrassed and had been unresolved.

"This question is quite interesting. Why don't you explain the specific difficulties you encountered?"

"Master, it's like this. I accidentally got an incomplete recipe for an elixir. It says that live mayflies are needed as medicine, but mayflies only live for one day.

It's not difficult to catch them alive in such a short time, but it's very difficult to bring them back to make elixir. How can I solve this problem?"

After asking the question, Xu Feng bowed respectfully and waited for the master's answer.
