Chapter 168 The Story of Mr. Long
Wait, what does Long Laoti mean?
Long Ziyan's life is short, does he want to take advantage of that living tree?
Is this the main reason why he came here today? He must not seek death.
Long Xuan was startled and asked hurriedly: "Don't you have any thoughts about that living tree?"
"You must be self-aware! It's hard for even many Gu kings to get their hands on. You, a Spirit Sea stage Gu cultivator, shouldn't join in the fun."
"Listen to my advice! It's safe to turn around!"
Long Xuan was startled and hurriedly tried to persuade him.
Mr. Long rolled his eyes at him fiercely and said disdainfully: "Do you really think I'm a stupid pig? How can a small spiritual sea stage Gu cultivator like me be able to plan such a heaven-defying thing?"
"You don't need to remind me, I know what I should do. How can I, Long Ao, be such a ignorant person?"
"The purpose of what I just said was not to defeat Living Mu. I wanted to tell you that Zi Yan's lifespan is very short. You should be mentally prepared for her to grow old very quickly."
"If you find her getting older one day, will you change your mind? Look into my eyes and speak!"
Elder Long stared into Long Xuan's eyes and asked in a deep voice.
"How is that possible? I like her no matter how old she is, I just like the old one!" Long Xuan responded directly without thinking.
Just kidding, Long Ziyan can't grow old in his own hands. He has too many ways to make her live longer. Isn't it just a matter of increasing her longevity?
Seeing that Long Xuan said this without hesitation, without any pause, Mr. Long nodded and said: "Then remember what you said today and never let her down, otherwise I will never let her down." I'll forgive you."
"I still have a certain understanding of your character. I feel relieved to leave Zi Yan in your hands. From now on, I will leave her to you. Don't let me down."
After saying that, Mr. Long rummaged through his storage bag. Just when Long Xuan thought he was rummaging through his dowry, he took out a few pieces of paper from his storage bag and handed them to Long Xuan solemnly. in hand.
Elder Long didn't know what he was reminiscing about. He showed a painful expression and sighed: "This is the Shou Yuan Gu recipe that I created myself, but I have only researched half of it. This can only be regarded as the remaining recipe of Shou Yuan Gu."
"It's not that I don't want to complete the Shouyuan Gu recipe, it's just that my strength doesn't allow it. I overestimated my ability. With my ability, I can't deduce the follow-up materials at all."
"Your ability to create your own poison recipes is unparalleled in the world. I believe that no one in the world can match your talent in creating your own poison recipes."
"I can't complete this Shouyuan Gu recipe. Since Long Ziyan is already with you, I can only give this Gu recipe to you, and let you, a genius who created your own Gu recipe, complete it. ”
"I believe in your ability. You will definitely be able to complete the recipe of Shouyuan Gu. Then Ziyan will no longer have to worry about Shouyuan."
Mr. Long was in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking, and showed a doting smile.
Looking at his expression, Long Xuan knew that he had a story. After Long Xuan took the remaining recipe with both hands, he asked curiously: "Did you create this Gu recipe specifically for Zi Yan?"
Long Xuan looked at the remaining Shouyuan Gu recipe in his hand and found that he could actually see the progress. This meant that all the materials on the Gu recipe were correct. Once the remaining materials were completed, this Gu recipe could really produce Gu. .
He couldn't help but be surprised. The amount of materials in this Gu recipe was in the thousands. Although he had only researched half of it, he would not be able to complete it later.
But this does not mean that he is useless. The Gu recipe that can increase lifespan is definitely a heaven-defying Gu recipe. Otherwise, how could he need so many materials? The fact that he can research half of them already shows that he is a genius. If it were anyone else, he would not even have ten points. Don't even think about researching any of them.
Long Xuan glanced at him in surprise, he actually still has such talent? Didn't see it.
Mr. Long kept looking at the starry sky and did not notice his look. He said in a melancholy tone: "You guessed it wrong! This Gu recipe was not created for Zi Yan, but for her mother Hongyu. And create.”
"It's just that I'm incompetent. Even if Hong Yu dies, I still can't create the Shouyuan Gu recipe."
Hearing this, Long Xuan was startled and asked subconsciously: "Is it possible that Master's wife is also born with a short life span and needs treasures to replenish her longevity?"
Mr. Long nodded, showing a look of reminiscence, and sighed: "Hongyu has the same nine-yin body as Ziyan. She is born with a short lifespan. I have worked hard to find a way to increase my lifespan."
"Do you know why I owe so much debt and I still haven't paid it off?"
Elder Long suddenly looked at Long Xuan and showed a wry smile: "In order to find a way to increase lifespan, I spent all my wealth and wasted my time on practicing alchemy. I naively wanted to create my own elixir to increase lifespan."
"It was also my whims at the time. Although pills that can increase longevity theoretically exist, they must require materials that defy the heavens. They were not something I could collect at that time when I was only in the marrow cleansing stage."
"Failed to take this path, which not only delayed a lot of my cultivation time, but also consumed all my cultivation resources, causing my progress to be slow. Otherwise, with my qualifications, I would be the Gu King now."
"Alas! The road of elixirs doesn't work, so I plan to create my own voodoo recipe. I want to create a voodoo that can increase my lifespan."
"However, I have a serious lack of understanding of my abilities. I am too self-righteous and have no self-awareness. How can I say that an ordinary person can easily create the kind of heaven-defying Gu recipe that can increase lifespan?"
“The idea I had at the time was just a daydream, and it’s ridiculous to think about it now.”
Mr. Long smiled mockingly to himself, then suddenly raised his head and took a sip of wine.
"So this time I failed again. I continued to waste my cultivation time, squandered all the property my parents had saved, and owed so much debt that I couldn't even repay it."
"Haha, do you know how much resources it consumes to study a Gu recipe? I was really stupid at the time."
Mr. Long showed a sad smile, took a sip of wine, and continued: "You know, everything I did in those years was in vain."
"Not only have I not researched anything, but I have also wasted my training time and exhausted my resources. This has caused my training to be slow, exhausted my potential, and made it difficult for me to become a strong person."
"What makes me even more heartbroken is that Hongyu doesn't understand my approach at all. In order to research something to increase her longevity, I have no time to spend with her. She thinks it's because she is old that I don't want to touch her. "
"She is suspicious and quarrels with me all day long. Whenever she sees me getting close to anyone of the opposite sex, she will mistake it for a third party."
"Because my experiments failed one after another and I was depressed, I had a big fight with her, and then I got angry and said that I had someone, and then I ran outside to clean up. I didn't expect that my departure would become the final farewell. I couldn't even see her anymore. I didn’t see the last one, I regret it..."
Mr. Long showed a painful expression, his eyes were red, and he quickly looked away.
Long Xuan looked at him with complicated eyes, wanting to comfort him but not knowing how to comfort him. In the end, he could only sigh softly and look somewhere in the starry sky.
He didn't expect that Mr. Long still had such a story, and that Long Ziyan still had that kind of past. No wonder her relationship with Mr. Long was not harmonious.
This is really a tragic story, really bloody.
Mr. Long spent all kinds of money trying to find a way to increase his longevity, and he still owed endless debts for this. This approach was ridiculous, but he couldn't laugh at this time. This may be a sign of extreme love, which one? Are the men and women in love stories rational?
At this time, he has made up his mind to complete the remaining recipe of Shouyuan Gu as quickly as possible to realize the dream of Mr. Long. If he sees that the recipe of Shouyuan Gu that he has studied all his life is really completed, he must be sure He would be so excited that he would cry, and then his life would have one less regret.
…
At the same time, in a secret room inside Qian's auction house.
"Miss, the live wood shooting is about to start. Are we really going to do nothing?"
"How about I disguise myself and pretend to be a buyer to take pictures of the live wood? With the wealth of my Qian Chamber of Commerce, I am capable of taking pictures of the live wood."
Qian Duoduo looked respectfully at the beautiful woman sitting on a red chair and said.
Qian Jinjin glanced at him and said helplessly: "Are you pretending to be a buyer and pretending to be addicted? I have already seen how you pretended to be a buyer to bid for spiritual wine today."
"Although this is a way to exploit loopholes, you are not allowed to do it again in the future, you know?"
"Once someone sees the flaw and catches me, the reputation of my Qian Chamber of Commerce will eventually be affected."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo looked embarrassed. He didn't expect that his perfect disguise would be seen through by the eldest lady at a glance. She was really discerning.
If Qian Jinjin knew that he had to complain about his inner thoughts, how could his round body be so perfectly disguised? It's too obvious, okay?
"Are we really going to give up on living trees and other heaven-defying treasures? Even if we pretend to accidentally knock off a piece of bark, that's fine."
Qian Duoduo said unwillingly, showing a very unwilling expression.
Qian Jinjin immediately looked at him with sharp eyes and said sternly: "Don't do unnecessary things, you know?"
"It's not my decision to do anything, it's the family's decision."
"The family has held a meeting of clan elders, and finally voted unanimously to give up the fight for the living wood."
"All senior members of the family agree that fighting for live wood would do more harm than good."
"The credibility of a family is the foundation of a clan. With credibility, there will be a steady stream of wealth. This is an inexhaustible benefit. For our family, the value of credibility is far greater than ten living trees. Wood."
"So many Gu kings in the family who are approaching their end of life have reluctantly given up on coveting living wood. You, a little steward, still dare to pursue the idea of living wood?"
"Put away all your cleverness. No matter how reasonable our explanation is, once you touch the living wood, you will be suspected by others. Don't treat people in the world as fools! You know!"
Qian Jinjin said in a stern tone, looking at Qian Duoduo with a stern look.
