Chapter 207: Capturing an Ascendant
Li Xiuchang didn't want Wenwen, the devil turtle, to lead his own Jinjiao astray.
He didn't want Jinjiao to have more contact with Wenwen.
"What do you mean, Li Xiuchang!" Wenwen jumped up in anger, "Do you dislike me? I am the emperor of the turtle clan. Am I not qualified to be its teacher!"
That was indeed quite disliked... Li Xiuchang comforted him, "Brother Turtle, you misunderstood. Jinjiao has just come into contact with the outside world. His mind is no different from that of a child. He knows nothing, can't read, and can't understand words. It's really a waste of talent to let you teach him."
Wenwen's face eased a little: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. As long as you agree to let Jinjiao worship me as your teacher, I promise to teach you everything I have learned in my life!
"And you don't have to worry. I don't go anywhere in Donggeng District every day. I am very safe. Jinjiao follows me and you supervise me. How can I have the chance to teach him bad things? "
I have to admit that Li Xiuchang was a little tempted.
He still knew the ability of the little turtle. If Jinjiao could learn the ability of the little turtle, it would definitely be a great help to him in the future.
Wenwen saw that Li Xiuchang was interested, and he struck while the iron was hot: "This turtle has always believed that personality is innate. This turtle has been with Chen Turtle for so many years, and his personality is not like his."
What Wenwen said is still reasonable. Chen Changsheng was afraid that Wenwen would be led astray by Zhang Wanzhi, so he never let it contact Zhang Wanzhi. What happened?
Children have a rebellious period when they grow up, and spiritual pets are similar. The more you don't let it do something, the more it will do it.
Chen Changsheng instilled too much Goudao thinking into Wenwen when he was a child, which aroused Wenwen's rebellious psychology and caused Wenwen to have the personality he has now.
Wenwen continued to persuade: "You also said that Jinjiao is illiterate and can't speak now, doesn't he need someone to teach him? You are so busy every day, how can you have time to teach? This turtle is just free, and you are not willing to help you share the burden? "
Li Xiuchang thought carefully for a long time before saying: "It's okay to let Jinjiao worship you as his master, but you can only teach it the knowledge of cultivation and fighting, and you are not allowed to instill your ideas into it. In addition, I must be present during every class!"
Wenwen raised his head and glared in dissatisfaction, but finally compromised and said: "Okay! This turtle promises you! "
Just like that, Jinjiao worshipped the little turtle as his master. Li Xiuchang didn't do any apprenticeship ceremony, but just agreed verbally perfunctorily.
There were too many ceremonies. If Jinjiao attached too much importance to Wenwen and took Wenwen's words as the golden rule, it would not be good.
Jinjiao looked at his master and the little turtle in confusion. He didn't understand human language and had no idea what the two were talking about. He recognized a master without knowing it.
Next, Wenwen began to give Jinjiao the first lesson under the supervision of Li Xiuchang.
This first lesson was to teach Jinjiao to read and speak.
Jinjiao, who was already a third-level monster, had a strong receptive ability and could easily learn human language and writing.
Li Xiuchang practiced his skills while Bian was also secretly monitoring the content of the lecture.
I saw a small turtle the size of a palm, teaching a palm-sized golden beetle seriously. This scene looked inexplicably funny.
During the class, when it came to the vocalization stage, an unexpected discovery was made: the human language uttered by the golden horn was unclear and buzzing.
The reason is that beetles do not have vocal cords, and they make sounds by rubbing their wings.
Therefore, it is difficult to simulate human speech by rubbing their wings.
It seems that many of these insect monsters cannot speak human language.
This is not a big problem. They can still communicate through voice transmission, and the golden horn can also understand what others say.
"Forget about not being able to speak. "Li Xiuchang said indifferently.
It would be much easier to teach Jinjiao to understand human language and read without teaching him to speak. By transmitting some basic knowledge of language and characters through spiritual consciousness, it can master most common languages and characters.
Therefore, the class was finished quickly, and Li Xiuchang let Jinjiao figure it out for a while to avoid more contact with Wenwen.
Wenwen wondered, "Jinjiao should have just become an adult, why is it already a third-level monster?"
Li Xiuchang said lightly, "Jinjiao is a natural alien species, and I have carefully cultivated it and invested a lot of resources. Isn't it normal for an adult to be a third-level monster?"
Wenwen was half-believing and half-doubting, and asked again, "How big is Jinjiao? Why does it, a beetle, practice turtle imitation?"
Li Xiuchang did not answer directly, but said, "Jinjiao is a natural alien species, and its body size is much larger than that of normal members of the same species. Isn't it normal? ”
Normal shit... You can't fool ghosts with this, how can you fool turtles?
Li Xiuchang kept saying that he was born a different species, and attributed all the reasons to him. Wenwen didn't believe it at all.
But he didn't dare to argue, for fear that Li Xiuchang would cancel his teaching qualifications.
After sending Wenwen away, Li Xiuchang took out two of his purchased natal magic weapons, wrapped them in beast king bone powder, and gave them to Jinjiao as dinner.
Recently, he has bought back a lot of natal magic weapons at a low price through the Xianchen Sect Market, and these will be Jinjiao's food in the future.
After Jinjiao finished eating, Li Xiuchang took out the medicine mud mixed with blood bodhi fruit mud and blood-replenishing medicine and gave it to Jinjiao as a fruit after dinner.
Eating natal magic weapons and beast king bone powder can strengthen the exoskeleton, but it can't just strengthen the outside, that would be superficial, and the internal strengthening must also keep up.
Li Xiuchang can't use the blood bodhi fruit mud now, but it's just right to strengthen Jinjiao's blood.
After fulfilling his duties as a breeder, Li Xiuchang began to practice his daily skills.
"Let's practice Talisman today."
He used his hand as a ghostwriter and used charcoal magic as ink to draw rune patterns on the rune paper...
Li Xiuchang discovered long ago that his charcoal magic power could replace Lingmo.
Usually spiritual ink is made from the blood of monsters or beasts, or the juice of spiritual plants. Low-level spiritual ink is not worth much.
With Li Xiuchang's current wealth, he actually doesn't care about saving the money to buy Lingmo. It's mainly about convenience.
"If Senior Brother Wang Long knew that I was already a second-level Talisman Master, would he break my defense?"
This idea suddenly came to Li Xiuchang's mind.
…
A few days later, the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce officially opened.
Ye Zhixing and other key members of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce have been here for two or three days, waiting for the opening ceremony to be held on Li Xiuchang's day off.
After all, the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce is just a newly established small chamber of commerce, and the opening ceremony was not very grand, so there was not much movement.
But on the day of the opening, the headquarters of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce launched a grand opening promotion event of 50% off for purchases over 50% and 15% off for purchases over 100%. In addition, most of the products sold were special products, which attracted many customers to come and buy. Finally, there was a surprise in front of the door. There was a long queue.
This commotion naturally attracted more onlookers. When there were more onlookers, some of them were bound to be converted into customers.
Looking at the lively scene of the bustling crowds, Yue Chongshan said in admiration: "This is a wonderful trick of the president, I can't think of it!"
Naturally, this full discount activity was started by Li Xiuchang. He thought to himself, where are you now? He hasn't come up with any tricks yet, such as getting a membership card or something, getting old cards and new ones to get coupons back, and asking friends to help with a knife. …
Yue Chongshan, Ye Zhixing, Chen Gao, and Wang Long were the business leaders of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce in the Four Immortal Sects respectively. Once the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce was established, they also called Li Xiuchang "President".
In addition to them, some merchants in Xianchen Zongfang City who cooperated with the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce also sent people to congratulate them, including the shopkeeper of Danxiang House.
These merchants all sent valuable gifts, especially Danxianglou, who directly sent a fourth-level elixir.
Li Xiuchang knew that this must be the instruction of his master Zhao Yuansi.
Although the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce is not well-known now, how can these merchants who have long-term cooperation with the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce not see the potential of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce? Many special products alone guarantee that they will have a place in the market.
Some merchants have cooperated with the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce for a long time, but they have never seen what the boss of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce looks like. This is mainly because Li Xiuchang has been the hands-off shopkeeper for many years.
Seeing Li Xiuchang at this time, they couldn't help but marvel. They didn't expect the president of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce to be so young.
No one looked down upon Li Xiuchang because he only had foundation building skills. He was in his twenties during the foundation building period, he was still an official disciple of the Immortal Dust Sect, and he was in charge of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce with unlimited prospects. Everyone could see that Li Xiuchang would definitely achieve success in the future. Not low.
"It's true that a hero comes from a boy!"
"President Li, I will rely on you for your support in the future."
Li Xiuchang had always been the most popular person in Donggeng District, but now he suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention and became the target of flattery. He was still a little uncomfortable with it.
Li Xiuchang dealt with it for a while and entertained all the guests to sit down and have a drink.
The spiritual dishes on the table were all cooked by Li Xiuchang while practicing his spiritual cooking skills last night.
He also brewed the fairy wine himself.
After having enough wine and food, Li Xiuchang sent away all the guests, with only a few key members of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce still surrounding him.
People came all the way here, so of course Li Xiuchang couldn't let them go back after having a meal, so he invited them to sit in Donggeng District.
Because Wang Long wanted to stay in the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce, only Li Xiuchang took the three of them to Donggeng District.
When entering the Fairy Dust Sect, Ye Zhixing and the other three were outsiders and underwent identity verification for a while before being released.
When they came to Donggeng District, Li Xiuchang made tea for the three of them, and the four of them sat around the table and started chatting.
At the end of the sentence, Chen Gao invited: "President, you ask, since Jian Sect and Yin Tian Sect have gone, when will you come and sit in our Dengxian Pavilion?"
Among the four major immortal sects, the only one Li Xiuchang has never been to is the Dengxian Pavilion. However, there have been many things going on recently and he is too lazy to go out. He only agreed casually:
"I will definitely go if I have the chance."
Chen Gao noticed Li Xiuchang's perfunctory behavior and lowered his voice: "Our Western Region has been very lively recently, and I'm afraid it will attract a lot of people."
His words aroused the curiosity of several people. Before Li Xiuchang could speak, Yue Chongshan had already asked, "What happened?"
Chen Gao glanced at several people and said mysteriously: "It seems that you haven't heard about it yet. When the news spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar!"
"Oh, stop being so pretentious and tell me if you have anything to do. Do you want to scare me to death?" Yue Chongshan said, scratching his ears and cheeks.
Chen Gao said with a somewhat mysterious smile on his face: "This started about more than a month ago. At that time, there were rumors that one of our sects in the Western Region had captured an ascended person alive!"
"Ascended?"
Yue Chongshan and Ye Zhixing looked at each other with confused expressions.
Li Xiuchang looked like he didn't understand on the surface, but in fact his heart skipped a beat.
"Brother Chen, what nonsense are you talking about? Where did the ascended person come from?" Ye Zhixing asked in confusion.
"That's right, you're saying that some sect in your Western Region captured an immortal alive?"
