Putting everything else aside, at least in terms of alchemy and medical skills, he was an outstanding existence in the martial arts world. However, at this moment, he was being so polite.
"This kid is really lucky. Don't tell me that he won the favor of Medicine King Valley just because of a few pills?"
"That's not possible. It's obvious that Zhu Bingjia wants to get these pills, but he's not willing to tell us their specific value." Those with discerning eyes immediately saw the clues.
They didn't think that I had refined these third rank pills. Although Zhu Bingjia thought so too, he couldn't be rude to me before confirming it.
Facing Zhu Bingjia's invitation, I was a little hesitant.
Actually, at this moment, I still didn't know what Zhu Bingjia was thinking. The Chi Deposition Pill that I had refined was originally passed down from Medicine King Sun's era. Although it wasn't a pill that specialized in tempering one's physique, it had this effect. If I specifically refined a body tempering pill, the effect would be even more immediate.
Suddenly, a series of thoughts occurred to me. Could it be that the decline of martial arts had something to do with the unsatisfactory physique of Qi-Jin martial artists?
I remembered that in the Martial Saint Tablet, the martial artists I had seen all had calm and reserved auras. It seemed that their physical strength wasn't too bad. Moreover, the shocking battle between Daoist Zhang and the Blood-fiend Demon King had further confirmed this point.
This might be one of the reasons. Not long ago, I suddenly had an epiphany, and the damaged Dantian was repaired. I really felt an evil spirit's power tearing at my Dantian. Moreover, I had asked Grandmaster Chen and Director Du. It seemed that when Qi-Jin martial artists broke through to the peak of Negative Jing, there would be such a situation. Most people would end up in failure. It was because of this evil power that a group of martial artists couldn't smoothly break through. It seemed that internal strength martial artists weren't affected by this, which was really strange.
Anyway, I felt that these two factors fundamentally limited the development of the martial arts environment. With this analysis, I could basically guess Zhu Bingjia's thoughts.
"Sorry, I don't have time." I casually rejected him.
It's not that my alchemy skills are remarkable, but if I were to come into contact with a professional, they might be able to see through me. The Medicine King's inheritance is my personal secret, and there are too many things involved in it. Once it's revealed, even the mysterious Martial Saint Tablet might surface.
"Gah." Not only the crowd, but even the two from the Valley of the Medicine Masters were taken aback.
Zhu Bingjia didn't get angry. My calm demeanor made him suspicious. Generally speaking, when people of Jianghu see martial arts experts, they would be submissive and humble. However, I acted as if I were on equal footing and had an indifferent attitude.
"Little brother, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. My Medicine King Valley has what you want!"
Zhu Bingjia glanced at the iPad. Since I specifically came to the trading venue, it means that I urgently need the thousand-year-old polygonum multiflorum and Tianshan snow lotus.
Although these two treasures are rare, Medicine King Valley has a deep foundation. In Zhu Bingjia's impression, it seems that they have some in stock. In any case, he needs to calm me down first. After all, from these elixirs, he sees the future hope of the entire Jianghu!
Even if I have to be humble and bow, he won't mind.
"Oh, really?
What if your Medicine King Valley takes this opportunity to harm me? Wouldn't I be in a passive position? "I teased.
"No, no, no, little brother, don't misunderstand. Our Medicine King Valley has absolutely no malice. Among the major sects, Medicine King Valley's attitude towards people of Jianghu has always been the friendliest …" Zhu Bingjia was going to give some examples, but found that he couldn't think of any at the moment, so he smiled awkwardly.
"Okay, then let me think about it. I'll give you an answer later."
I felt that Zhu Bingjia's attitude was good. If I refused him again and again, he would inevitably lose face. Now that we are in public, it's better to give him some face.
"Okay, okay." Zhu Bingjia was overjoyed, and his smile became more humble.
If I was the kind of person who tried to curry favor with him, it would be impossible for me to have such a lukewarm attitude, unless I deliberately cast a long line to catch a big fish. But in terms of expression, there would more or less be some flaws, but I was calm, like a person of virtue and prestige.
In order not to affect my participation in the trade fair, Zhu Bingjia took the initiative to retreat to the side. This series of scenes directly shocked everyone, especially Boss Hong. He has dealt with the people of Medicine King Valley several times, so he knew their temperament. In comparison, Zhu Bingjia was relatively easy to get along with.
His series of actions just now was enough to explain the problem. Boss Hong was a little regretful. Why didn't he see that I was unusual just now? Although he didn't offend me, he lost a chance to curry favor with me. Now that Zhu Bingjia threw out an invitation, he couldn't take away what he loved.
For some things, once you get there first, you'll have the upper hand. Since I was wearing a mask, Boss Hong didn't know who I was. He glanced at Grandmaster Chen next to him and revealed a pensive expression.
Next, it was the normal part of the trade. My plan was, if I couldn't get those two treasures at the trade fair, then I would talk to the people of Medicine King Valley.
Soon, someone ran over to me to ask for a price.
"Old Tie, can you sell these pills to me for five million each?!"
"Hey, Fatty Zhang, do you think I'm a fool?
How can the things that Medicine King Valley wants be ordinary? Adding a zero is more like it! "
"What nonsense are you talking about? At the beginning of the month, a third-stage Spirit Deposition Pill was sold in the underground black market. It was only about ten million, and it came from Medicine King Valley. No matter how good his pills are, they can't compare to Medicine King Valley's, can they?!"
"That's right, the pills produced by Medicine King Valley are the hottest treasures in the martial arts world. Just now was just a preliminary recognition, it doesn't mean anything!"
As the saying goes, the speaker didn't mean it, but the listener did. Many people subconsciously looked at Zhu Bingjia.
