Chapter 273 The Conspiracy of Prince Youxian’s Mansion (Please subscribe)

At the beginning, Taoist Master Zhanlang said that it only takes four batches of pills to make one.

He has completed two furnaces of elixirs now.

There are two magic elixirs.

Absolutely met Taoist Wolf Slayer’s previous requirements.

"What does Taoist Master Zhanlang mean?" Wei Tu glanced at Taoist Master Zhanlang and said in a cold tone.

In terms of superficial strength, although he is not as good as Master Taoist Wolf Slayer, he is not to the point of fear.

Moreover, behind him are the "Cang Kun Alliance" and the Great Master Qubei from the lineage of Divine Master Dulong.

Based on this, although he felt early on that Taoist Wolf Slayer's request to him to make elixirs might be a scam, he was not afraid of the consequences, so he accepted the commission.

“Alchemist Wei failed in refining the elixir. He promised to make a batch of elixirs, but there were only two of them. He should be compensated.”

The demonstration was successful. Taoist Master Zhanlang lost his momentum, smiled slightly, and spoke.

Hear this.

Wei Tu immediately understood the basis for Taoist Master Zhanlang's trouble at this time.

One furnace of the Selling Essence Pill can produce three pills.

Taoist Master Zhan Lang deliberately set a verbal trap, saying that only one batch of elixirs was enough, but did not specify the specific number of elixirs.

According to common sense, one batch of elixirs refers to the refining of this batch of elixirs. If one can succeed, it is considered a success.

However, there are certain reasons for forcing three pills in a furnace.

Of course, the latter is usually not recognized by the alchemy community and will only be regarded as nonsense.

So Wei Tu ignored this matter.

"How much compensation does Taoist Brother Zhanlang want?" Wei Tu looked at Taoist Wolf Zhan for a few times, and suddenly smiled, as if he was a little subdued.

One sentence.

There are too many spiritual stones, and people care about you.

Over the past few decades, he has accumulated a lot of spiritual stones by relying on the trade route to the Sanxian Alliance opened by the Sky-Splitting Diao and his two major skills of making talismans and refining alchemy.

He is considered to be one of the top rich people in Yingdingbu Jindan.

Otherwise, he would not have asked Yu Tong to go to Xiao Country and help him purchase the Golden Congo.

Taoist Master Zhanlang asked him to refine the elixir. In addition to refining the Jingjing Pill, he also wanted to take advantage of this to get rid of the grass.

Of course, if he "succeeds" in refining the elixir, Taoist Master Zhanlang will have no reason to find trouble, and this is also possible, but will not happen.

"Four materials, only two pills were made... Pindao didn't ask for much. Master Wei compensated Pindao with 32,000 spirit stones. Let this matter be over." Taoist Master Shiliang said with his mouth wide open.

Thirty-two thousand spirit stones?

Wei Tu narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered secretly.

The elixirs needed to refine the Jingjing Pill are mostly ordinary third-level elixirs, and there are no rare treasures.

The total value does not exceed 20,000 spirit stones.

Now, Taoist Master Zhan Lang wants him to compensate for 32,000 spiritual stones, clearly intending to use his power to suppress others and blackmail him.

I think he, a young Jindan, is easy to bully!

This amount of spiritual stones is even larger than when Master Yuanxian made the "bet" with him.

“I just don’t know if there is any instruction from Prince Youxian’s Palace in this?” Wei Tu calmed down and thought.

He is not afraid of just one Taoist Wolf Slayer. What he is worried about is that Taoist Wolf Slayer is just a pawn, and there is another driving force behind the scenes.

After all, his value is not low.

Wei Tu quickly made a plan.

“Five thousand spiritual stones, that’s the only number Wei is willing to give.” Wei Tu looked at Taoist Wolf Slayer coldly, took a few steps back, waved his sleeves, and said impatiently.

I was convinced when I saw the Wei picture.

Taoist Wolf Slayer laughed a few times. He had already guessed that craftsmen like Wei Tu were not good at fighting and would give in when faced with tough situations.

Spend a small amount of money to buy peace.

Don’t dare to break up with him.

"Eighteen thousand spirit stones, this is the lowest price." Taoist Wolf Slayer did not agree to Wei Tu's words and raised the price of the compensation spirit stones.

When Wei Tu heard this, he frowned slightly, as if he was hesitating whether to agree or not. He raised his head and glanced at Taoist Wolf Slayer, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"This is eighteen thousand spiritual stones." Wei Tu reluctantly took out a spiritual stone bag from his sleeve and threw it to the Taoist Wolf Slayer in front of him.

“Alchemist Wei is generous.” After obtaining the spirit stone, Taoist Wolf Slayer smiled with great satisfaction on his face.

After he praised Wei Tu, he didn't linger much, turned into a light yellow light, and left Yanfen Mountain.

Wait until Taoist Master Zhanlang has gone far.

Wei Tu snorted coldly, changed his disguise, transformed into an old man in a hidden robe, and followed him secretly.

There was a spiritual mark made of the "Spirit Sealing Talisman". Along the way, Wei Tu did not follow Taoist Diu Zhanlang.

…

Taoist Zhanlang who left Yanfen Mountain went straight back to Hujie Immortal City and came to Prince Youxian's Mansion.

Youxian Prince's Mansion is located in the southwest of Hujiexian City, covering an area of ​​1,000 acres and with buildings like forests.

Half a day after Master Zhanlang entered the palace.

The old man in Tibetan robes, who had been disguised by Wei Tu, also came to the door of Prince Youxian's Mansion.

He raised his head and glanced at the brass gate of the palace, which was several feet high and the two ferocious lion statues placed outside the gate, and paused.

"The palace is guarded by a third-level barrier formation. It is not easy to spy on the information inside." Wei Tu said to Bai Zhi after hesitating. Brass gates, bronze lion statues, corrugated walls carved with rare and strange animals, etc.

With his knowledge, he can see that these are the formation eyes of the royal palace formation.

However, before Bai Zhi could reply, a group of soldiers stationed at Prince Youxian's Mansion came over from nearby.

The leader of the imperial guards looked at Wei Tu and scolded him coldly: "This is an important place in the royal palace, so I won't stay for a long time."

After the words fell, a group of forbidden soldiers raised their spears and pointed them at the old man in Tibetan robes who had been transformed by Wei Tu.

Seeing this, Wei Tu left decisively from the gate of the palace and did not get into any more entanglements with this group of forbidden soldiers.

"Trouble, these soldiers only patrol outside and do not enter the palace." Wei Tu, who was hiding aside, frowned and took back the colorful moth that he secretly placed on the leader of the soldiers when he left.

The colorful phantom moth's escape speed is limited.

The second-level colorful phantom moth is still able to follow the monks at the foundation-building level, but it is beyond its ability to track the monks at the golden elixir level.

So, Wei Tu only left the mark of spiritual consciousness on Taoist Master Zhanlang when he left.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, I have finished checking my body. There are no obvious loopholes in the formation barrier outside Prince Youxian's Mansion. There is no other way except to break it directly." Bai Zhi said with a tired look.

After losing her body, she only had the golden elixir and divine soul left. The divine consciousness she used could not be replenished immediately and could only be restored gradually and slowly.

Hence, just checking the loopholes in the formation barrier outside Prince Youxian's Mansion left her with a severe loss of energy.

“It seems that we can only wait patiently.” Wei Tu shook his head and blended into the flow of people on the street.

Fortunately, Prince Youxian's family has a big business, and there is a lot of food, clothing and chews in the house every day.

Only one day later, Wei Tu found an opportunity and placed a colorful phantom moth on a steward who was out for procurement.

Using his job as a steward, he entered the palace of Prince Youxian.

The body of the colorful phantom moth contains a trace of Wei Tu’s spiritual consciousness. With this spiritual consciousness, Wei Tu controls the colorful phantom moth to fly to where Taoist Master Wolf Slayer is.

Same as Wei Tu in the Huang family in Heshan.

In the palace of Prince Youxian, a place where spiritual energy flourished was specially opened up as a worship hall for guests such as Taoist Master Zhanlang to live.

The colorful phantom moth carefully lurked in the guest room of the enshrinement hall where Taoist Master Wolf Slayer lived.

Taoist Master Zhan Lang was in the guest room, concentrating on meditating, and it didn’t look like he was planning anything else with others.

"It's a day and a half late. I wonder if Taoist Wolf Slayer has already come into contact with other people?" Wei Tu frowned and sighed softly.

Now, he can only treat dead cats as living cat doctors. Maybe he can catch some clues here.

We waited quietly for two days.

Wei Tu, who was hiding near the entrance of the palace, saw the second prince Youxian Wang in a golden robe walking into the palace.

 Wei Tu had a deep impression of this second prince. When he was at Fenglang Island, the second prince recruited him and said that he had a widowed sister.

The second prince entered the palace.

At first, Wei Tu didn't pay much attention, but when he borrowed the colorful magic moth and saw the second prince going to the worship hall in the palace and walking towards the guest room of Taoist Wolf Slayer, his spirit suddenly shook.

If he guessed correctly.

This time Taoist Wolf Slayer is attacking him, it is very likely that it has something to do with the second prince of King Youxian.

“Your Highness.” Sensing the arrival of the second prince, Taoist Master Zhanlang stood up, opened the guest room, and bowed his hands.

“Taoist Master Killing the Wolf.”

The second prince behaved in an easy-going manner. He waved his hand to signal Master Zhanlang that there was no need to be polite, then he took off his robe and sat on the stool in the guest room.

Taoist Master Zhanlang also took his seat.

“How is the progress this time?” The second prince glanced at the storage bag on the waist of Taoist Wolf Slayer and asked.

"Reporting to Your Highness, Wei Tu agreed to refine the elixir as planned, and compensated the corresponding spiritual stones under Pindao's threat."

“This is the five thousand spirit stones as compensation.”

As he spoke, Taoist Master Zhanlang took out a spirit stone bag from his body and placed it on the coffee table between the two of them.

Five thousand spiritual stones?

When Wei Tu in the dark heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. Before that, he had clearly paid "eighteen thousand spirit stones" as compensation.

“It seems that this Wolf-Slaying Taoist is not really serving Prince Youxian’s Palace.” Wei Tu thought to himself.

“The Taoist Priest can accept this spiritual stone himself.”

The second prince shook his head and pushed the spirit stone bag on the coffee table to the direction of Taoist Wolf Slayer.

It was only five thousand spiritual stones. He didn't need it. He lost his heart because of this small amount of money.

“Thank you, Prince.”

Taoist Master Zhanlang smiled, waved his hand, and took back the bag of spirit stones.

"Your Highness, there is something unclear about Pindao." At this time, Taoist Master Zhanlang groaned and asked: "If the palace wants to recruit Wei Tu, why would it send Pindao to threaten him? Isn't this letting Wei Tu ruin Wei Tu's view of the palace? Like?"

Before doing the work, he only knew the order given to him by Prince Youxian's Mansion and didn't ask any more questions.

But after the matter was done, he should also ask.

After all, this time I have offended a fellow monk, so I cannot be careless.

If the palace recruits Wei Tu in the future and pushes him out as a scapegoat to please Wei Tu, it will be more of a loss than a gain.

Zhan Lang Taoist has self-awareness.

He knew that his combat prowess was higher than that of Wei Tu, but in terms of his value among the forces, he was far inferior to Wei Tu, a young monk with both elixirs and talismans.
