Chapter 196: Breakthrough, a deal between two women, a huge sum of money

Fu Yongfu had just left when Fu Yongdan arrived. Because Mei Zhen had already gone to Wanning Market in advance, Fu Changsheng asked Fu Yongdan to pass the recipe of Yangyuan Pill to Mei Zhen.

Fu Yongdan is Mei Zhen's first disciple and now is in charge of the Alchemy Hall.

After finishing all the chores.

Fu Changsheng activated the magic circle, checked it again and again to see if there were any omissions, and then he had an idea:
"Start the practice room"

hum!
The panel vibrates.

A large amount of yellow light surged.

Then there was a flash before his eyes, and the next moment he appeared in the [Training Room]. The familiar scent of sandalwood filled his nose, and he sat down on the cushion, and his heart calmed down.

He practiced the "Green Emperor's Secret of Longevity" and exhaled the turbid air in his body. He touched the pill bottle on the left and the Duanyuan Pill fell into his mouth instantly.

boom!
The powerful medicinal power was like a wild horse running free from its reins in Dantian.

The second-grade top-grade elixir was even more powerful, and Fu Changsheng groaned. He quickly mobilized the power of his dantian to wrap up the medicinal power, and then released it bit by bit to refine it.

Cultivation has no time.

Four years passed in the blink of an eye.

Fu Changsheng only heard a click, and the magic power in his body instantly jumped over a bridge, circulated through another newly opened meridian, and then passed through the two bridges of heaven and earth and fell into his dantian:
"Eighth floor of foundation building!"

After taking a bottle of Duanyuan Pill and practicing persistently, everything came to fruition.

Look inside the Dantian.

The area of ​​the middle dantian has been expanded to more than twice its previous size.

In the past, it was three mu of land, but now it is nearly one mu.

Because of the peculiarity of "The Green Emperor's Secret of Immortality", his spiritual consciousness also increased to twice its original size.

One more step forward is the ninth level of foundation building.

But if you just meditate and practice, it will undoubtedly take more than ten years to make further progress, after all, the energy that needs to be accumulated is too huge.

Therefore.

He planned to use the next period of time to practice "Nine Heavenly Star Art".

If you want to break through the Purple Mansion, you must open up the seventeen major acupoints in the upper dantian and the middle dantian. The seventeen major acupoints are all in sensitive areas, and one careless move will cause irreparable serious consequences. If you temper the meridians before that, then opening up the seventeen major acupoints will undoubtedly be twice the result with half the effort!
The first level of "Nine Heavenly Star Art" is to refine the skin, the second level is to refine the flesh, and the third level is to refine the tendons, so as long as he practices the first three levels to perfection.

This will undoubtedly be as easy as drinking water for him to open up the two major dantians.

A right hand flip.

A star map appeared in his hand.

It took him nearly half a year to comprehend the method of refining the star map. After he felt it was almost right, he began to refine it.

Make a seal with your right hand.

A spell was chanted.

As magic power was injected into the star map, a star on the star map was instantly lit up. After several months, hundreds of stars on the star map were lit up one by one. At this time, if you look closely, you will find that the star marks on the star map correspond to the acupuncture points in the body.

The right hand technique changed.

The star map trembled slightly, and instantly turned into a ball of starlight and sank into the body.

The original stars fall into the corresponding acupuncture points.

Next.

It is to draw the power of the nine heavenly stars into the body.

Fu Changsheng took a deep breath and did not rush to practice. Instead, he took out the "Nine Heavenly Star Secret" and studied it carefully again before starting to practice.

Accompanied by the practice of the exercises.

However, the stars that had fallen into various acupuncture points before suddenly connected into a line. At this time, in the void, the starlight in the sky turned into star points and fell around Fu Changsheng. As the star map trembled slightly, the power of the stars instantly penetrated into the body, and while the skills were running, it began to temper the skin.

With the star map.

It seems to have become much easier to draw the power of the stars into the body.

When Fu Changsheng was in seclusion.

After Liu Meizhen and Fu Molan finished handing over the general affairs of Feilong Market, they rode the two-headed green-eyed giant python to Wanning Market.

Although it is my first time to come to Fangshi.

But Liu Meizhen was familiar with the place and found a cave to rent for building the foundation.

She just appeared in the market.

Liang Zhitang, the second elder of the Liang family who was in charge of the weapon refining workshop, had already heard the report from Shopkeeper Liang. Shopkeeper Liang was a little reluctant:
"Second Elder, we have run this shop for nearly a hundred years, and we earn tens of thousands of spiritual stones every year. It is one of the biggest sources of income for our Liang family. Do we really have to hand over the shop to the Fu family?"

Second Elder Liang Zhitang slowly put a trademark on a second-grade, top-grade magic weapon that had been identified, and said calmly:
"There are so many people who want this shop. Look at the past hundred years, which family has been able to take it away from us?"

Even so.

But the worry on Shopkeeper Liang's face did not diminish at all.

He had heard about the contract agreed upon by the heads of the nine great families:

"Second Elder, do you have any plan?"

Liang Zhitang raised his hand and took a sip of the Wuling tea on the table. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a half-smile:
"When the Fu family sends someone to hand over the shop, you just need to be enthusiastic and tell them to wait patiently for a few days. It's not like we won't return the shop, we'll just postpone it for a while. It will be done when the next family competition comes."

"What if the Fu family gets angry and reports this to the Zhenshi Division?"

The Zhenshisi was located in Fangshi.

If there is a dispute among the noble families, they can ask the Zhenshisi to make the arbitration.

And the Fu family was obviously right.

Liang Zhitang smiled when he heard this:
"If the Fu family really comes to Zhenshisi, it will be a great thing for us."

these years.

They gave Palace Master Liu a lot of good things as a gift.

Their Liang family is about to be promoted to the eighth rank, while the Fu family is just an emerging ninth rank family. Which is more important? Palace Master Liu is not stupid, so how could he side with the Fu family?

After listening to Liang Zhitang's analysis, Shopkeeper Liang.

The heavy stone in my heart suddenly fell to the ground.

The next day.

When the shop was open and the busiest flow of people came, someone from the Fu family was indeed seen coming. However, it was Fu Changsheng's first wife Liu Rumei. Shopkeeper Liang had heard of this woman.

After all, Liu Meizhen was willing to betray her family and marry the down-and-out Fu Changsheng. This was made into a touching drama in the market town, and many men dreamed of having such a devoted wife.

Therefore.

When Liu Meizhen came to the door.

Shopkeeper Liang still went out to greet them in person with some respect:
"Mrs. Fu, you are here to discuss the handover of the store. Please come in, we will talk in the backyard."

"Manager Liang, there's no need to bother. I'll leave after I give you a few instructions. According to our family contract, this store should have been run by our Fu family half a month ago. However, considering that your Liang family has been running the store for a hundred years, we've pardoned you for half a month. From today on, this store belongs to our Fu family. If you're quick, you can clear out all the goods by noon. If you're still running the store the next day, our Fu family will charge you twenty times the rental fee starting tomorrow."

talking.

Liu Meizhen waved her sleeves.

Instantly, a written notice was posted in a very conspicuous place at the door of the store, and the content on it was exactly what she had just said.

Shopkeeper Liang narrowed his eyes slightly.

He had a feeling that this woman was not simple, so he quickly smiled and said, "Mrs. Fu, everything can be discussed. We..."

He wanted to say something else.

Liu Meizhen just turned around and left.

Shopkeeper Liang narrowed his eyes slightly and winked at the servant, who immediately ran out and tore down the posted notice.

in this way.

The next three months.

Liu Meizhen did not go to the store in person, but instead sent someone from the clan to read out the contents of the notice and then posted it at the door of the store.

There was no trouble and no entanglement.

This is really confusing.

Shopkeeper Liang said with some worry:

"Second Elder, Liu Meizhen sends people to read the notice every day. Now everyone in the whole market knows about it. Although it does not affect our business, I feel something is wrong. Second Elder, what do you think Liu Meizhen is up to?"

"Hmph, what medicine can she sell? She is just a woman, she is just trying to win people's sympathy. She doesn't even dare to take a step into the Zhenshi Division. You should just focus on your business."

Liang Zhitang was very calm.

Seeing that he looked calm and confident, Manager Liang felt relieved.

Just as he was about to say goodbye and go downstairs, he heard the sound of footsteps on the stairs, and then the servant said breathlessly:
"Shopkeeper, Second Elder, Liu Meizhen, Liu Meizhen just came out of the cave and went towards the Zhenshi Division. It looks like she's going to cause trouble there."

I'm coming.

It turns out that Liu Meizhen is not an easy person to deal with.

Shopkeeper Liang had a trace of panic on his face, thinking of the twenty times breach of lease rent that Liu Meizhen had mentioned many times. Now, almost three months have passed.

If you really want compensation.

That's the equivalent of five years' rent.

This is not a small amount. Liang Zhitang smiled disdainfully:
"I thought Liu Meizhen was smart, but now she seems to be just like an ordinary woman, crying and making a fuss."

At the Zhenshi Division.

They have Palace Master Liu's support, so if Liu Meizhen goes there, she will only get into trouble.

the other side.

Liu Meizhen arrived at the Zhenshi Division and handed a bottle of elixir to the guard. She smiled and said, "Please help pass a message to Palace Master Cao, saying that the wife of the Fu family's Patriarch is not feeling well and wants to ask Palace Master Cao to find Zhang Pianfang to treat her."

The guard was in the late stage of Qi training. He glanced at the bottle of first-grade top-grade elixir in his hand. Although he thought Liu Meizhen's words were strange, he still gritted his teeth and said:
"Madam Fu, I can only help you convey your message, but whether Palace Master Cao will see you or not is another matter."

There was a pause.

After all, he was too soft-hearted and quickly sent a message:
"Palace Master Cao has been in seclusion since returning from the Demon Cave at Qili Mountain. I'm afraid Madam Fu's trip today will be in vain."

The guard bowed.

He turned around and came to the moon gate in the back hall. The maid guarding the gate was his lover. He quickly sent a message to the maid and showed the pill bottle in his hand. The maid glared at him:
"Never happen again"

talking.

She turned and entered the courtyard, and when she reached the door of the main room, she whispered exactly what Liu Meizhen had said. After waiting for a while, the door of the secret room was not opened, and the maid was about to leave.

At this moment, Cao Xianger's voice came to my ears:

"Let Liu Meizhen come in"

this.
The maid was stunned.

As far as she knew.

The Palace Master and Liu Meizhen had never had any encounter before. Not long ago, a small wave of beasts appeared in the Shiwan Mountains. Even Palace Master Liu was alarmed and went there, but his own Palace Master did not come out of the secret room at all.

At this time, he agreed to meet Liu Meizhen.

It's really weird.

However, the maid did not dare to guess the Palace Master's thoughts, and quickly nodded her head in response. After passing the message to the guard, the guard was also stunned. However, since he could help others get things done by taking money, the guilt in his heart also dissipated, and a smile appeared on his face. When he arrived at the gate of the Zhenshi Mansion, he said to Liu Meizhen:

"Mrs. Fu is really lucky today. Our Palace Master Cao is willing to meet you. Please follow me."

talking.

He thought that Liu Meizhen would show surprise on her face, but Liu Meizhen seemed to have expected it and was not at all surprised.

The guard was a little puzzled.

She led the person into the backyard, and then a maid led her to the door of the main room. At this time, the light curtain of the magic circle lit up with ripples, and a gap flashed. Liu Meizhen stepped in, and the magic circle behind her closed instantly.

The moment you enter.

A sharp blade was suddenly approaching Liu Meizhen's neck.

Cao Xiang'er stared at Liu Meizhen coldly:
"How much do you know?!"

Liu Meizhen was received by Cao Xiang'er, and this matter soon reached the ears of Palace Master Liu, who was also somewhat puzzled: "When did the Fu family become related to Cao Xiang'er?"

A trip to the Qilishan Demon Cave.

Cao Xiang'er found what the court needed in the Demon Realm and had obtained a spiritual item that could break through the Purple Mansion. After the Fifth-Rank Cao Family learned of this news, the head of the Cao Family spared no expense to use the teleportation array from other states to reach Jingzhou, and then went all the way south to their Wanning Market to meet Cao Xiang'er in person.

Although Cao Xiang'er was not liked by the head of the Cao family before.

But Cao Xianger now has this Purple Mansion spiritual object. Once she breaks through to the Purple Mansion, even the Cao family, who is a fifth-grade golden elixir, will attach great importance to it.

After all, after entering the Purple Mansion.

Then they are considered the backbone of this world.

and.

Cao Xiang'er could also be promoted to a higher position in the Zhenshi Division because of this.

Therefore, the Patriarch of the Cao family came this time, most likely to bring Cao Xianger other spiritual objects to assist in breaking through the Purple Mansion, in order to increase Cao Xianger's success rate in breaking through the Purple Mansion.

If there are no accidents.

Cao Xianger will be able to break through to the Purple Mansion level within five years.

If the Fu family is really related to Cao Xianger, then he really can't help the Liang family.

Therefore, Palace Master Liu was a little upset at the moment:

"Go and find out more"

The guard quickly responded.

About half a cup of tea time passed.

The guard came back like a gust of wind, panting and saying:
"Reporting to Palace Master, Liu Meizhen has already come out of Palace Master Cao's courtyard."

"Oh, did you hear what Palace Master Cao said to her?"

"No, the two of them activated a protective magic circle in the secret room."

"What did Liu Meizhen look like after she came out?"

"Expression? Same as when you went in, no change at all?"

Palace Master Liu frowned, wondering what tricks this woman Liu Meizhen was playing. He pondered for a while and said, "Go out and see immediately which direction Liu Meizhen went after she left. Once you are sure, send a message to me immediately."

"Yes, Hall Master!"

The guard rushed out and saw Liu Meizhen walking towards East Street from a distance. He immediately took out the communication jade talisman and provided the information. Soon, the voice of Palace Master Liu was heard from the other side:
"Tell the people in the World Suppression Department that I will be in seclusion for a period of time. Unless the sky falls, no one can come to disturb my seclusion."

After Liu Meizhen came out of the Zhenshi Division, she walked slowly to the entrance of the Liang family's weapon forging workshop. When the guests came and went, some sympathized with Liu Meizhen, while others laughed at her. They pointed and talked about her:
"Look, even if the Fu family won the title of the Noble Family, what's the use? After all, their foundation is shallow. Look at this shop, they said they wanted to take it back, but after three months, they can only post notices every day and dare not say a word."

"Hey, I think the head of the Fu family is also smart. He knows that the shop can't be sold, so he lets his wife come forward. It's obvious that he doesn't want to lose face."

"Everyone said that the Fu family's rise was unstoppable, but now it seems like duckweed in the wind."

"."

The Ghost Fairy happened to come to the market today to purchase supplies. Hearing the discussions around her, she felt a lot less unhappy about the secret realm quota she had purchased at a high price.

Have a look.

Not everything goes smoothly for the Fu family. There is always a mountain to climb.

In order to see Liu Meizhen suffer a loss, Gui Xiangu, who was originally going to West Street, changed direction and followed Liu Meizhen into the Liang family's weapon refining workshop.

When Manager Liang learned that Liu Meizhen had gone to Zhenshisi, he was extremely nervous.

When he saw Liu Meizhen coming alone, his worries instantly disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Madam Fu, you must be tired from running back and forth. Come on, let's go to the backyard to drink some tea to moisten our throats."

"I won't drink the tea. I came here today to inform Shopkeeper Liang that you have been illegally operating our Fu's store for three months. According to the penalty for breach of contract, it is exactly five years."

The Ghost Fairy heard this from behind and almost laughed out loud.

Liu Meizhen is such a naive woman.

Even in the secular world, many landlords and wealthy people have occupied the property of common people, but it is difficult for common people to get their property back, let alone compensation.

The Ghost Fairy was just thinking of saying something sarcastic.

But Liu Meizhen waved her sleeves, and then a decree from the Zhenshi Division slowly unfolded and floated in the air. It was written by Cao Xianger herself, stating that the Liang family had occupied the property, and if they did not return it, they would have to pay thirty times the penalty for breach of contract in three months.

Stamped below the edict were the palace master's jade seal of Cao Xianger and the seal of the Zhenshi Division!

In the Great Zhou Dynasty.

I have never heard of anyone daring to falsely convey the decree of the Zhenshisi.

And it’s right in front of Zhen Shisi’s house.

The decree that Liu Meizhen showed was undoubtedly genuine and was truly written by Cao Xianger.

The ghost fairy was stunned:

"How is this possible?!"

How could Palace Master Cao be related to the Fu family for no reason?

Originally, Si was thinking about the Fu family's excitement, but this result made Gui Xiangu feel so choked up that she couldn't get up or down:

"Damn it, what kind of magic potion did the Fu family feed Cao Xiang'er that she actually backed up the Fu family. The Fu family is so lucky that not only is the Shangguan family, an eighth-rank family, protecting them, but now even the Zhenshi Division has a noble person to help them. It's really true that comparison is the culprit!"

The Ghost Fairy turned around and left the shop in disappointment.

the other side.

Shopkeeper Liang looked at the imperial edict.

There was no trace of smile on his face at this moment.

They had to pay five years' rent in just three months, which was equivalent to the Liang family's direct loss of more than 100,000 low-grade spirit stones. They felt a sweetness in their throats at that moment.

Liang Zhitang upstairs was also in disbelief, and quickly sent someone to find Palace Master Liu. However, Palace Master Liu was still there in the morning, but now he announced to the public that he was in seclusion.

Isn't this a disguised way of not wanting to help?

Liang Zhitang's teeth chattered. It turned out that Liu Meizhen had set up a trap since the day she entered the market, waiting for the Liang family to get in. It was a pity that he was still complacent, thinking that the other party was just an ordinary woman:
"You are such a good Liu Meizhen!"

No matter what.

He also couldn't have guessed that the Fu family was connected to Cao Xiang'er.

The rent for these five years.

But now I have to give it!

Liang Zhitang narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Fu family, just wait. When we get to Canglan Secret Realm, I will have plenty of opportunities to make you pay back with interest!"
