Repairer

"Stewed black-bone chicken with old ginseng and angelica, brother, come downstairs and eat..."

A strong fragrance wafted from the kitchen of the villa, and the fragrance of the chicken soup was also mixed with the fragrance of medicinal herbs.

When Su Xiaofan lived here by himself, he cooked on fire. There are so many good restaurants in Yanjing, where you can taste delicious food from all over the world, so why cook and eat by yourself.

So today's meal can be regarded as the first meal he cooked after taking over this villa.

"Huh? The taste is good."

Su Xiaofan came down from the upstairs, and after recuperating in the room for a whole day of "sickness", Su Xiaofan's complexion has become much normal, and he no longer needs help when he moves.

"Of course it's not bad. Sister Zixuan went to several time-honored stores before buying two old ginseng, which are said to be seven or eighty years old."

Su Xiaoxiao brought a big bowl of chicken soup to his elder brother, with a few thin ginseng whiskers floating on it, the strong medicinal fragrance came to his nostrils, Su Xiaofan felt that the true essence in his body seemed to be a little more active.

"This old ginseng is really useful for cultivation."

Su Xiaofan nodded secretly, he heard from his master before that some old medicinal materials can improve his cultivation, but Su Xiaofan can't use them.

When I said before that I want to be old and make up for it, it was just Su Xiaofan's casual talk. I didn't expect Mo Zixuan to be so sincere and really bought it back.

"Su Xiaofan, how would you like to taste it?"

Mo Zixuan looked at Su Xiaofan eagerly. Since she was a child, Mo Zixuan had devoted all her energy to her studies. This was her first time cooking, so she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

But a smart person can do everything well. Mo Zixuan learned how to do it step by step according to online videos. She also tasted it just now, and the taste seems to be okay.

"Well, yes, the medicinal aroma of old ginseng and the aroma of chicken are mixed together, it's delicious!"

Su Xiaofan took a mouthful of ginseng soup, and immediately felt warm all over his body, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, the age of this old ginseng is probably more than seventy or eighty years old.

"Zixuan, where did you come from, old ginseng?"

Su Xiaofan looked at Mo Zixuan, and said, "I feel that using this old ginseng to assist in your cultivation will definitely greatly improve your cultivation speed."

It can be of some help to Su Xiaofan's current cultivation, not to mention Mo Zixuan and others who are in the qi training stage. If they can take it for a long time, Mo Zixuan may be able to advance to the foundation stage within ten years.

"This is not bought outside."

Mo Zixuan hesitated for a moment and said, "I exchanged this from the relevant department. It is quite precious, and there is not much in the department..."

For practitioners who serve the country, in addition to wages and many public benefits, the relevant departments also have some invisible benefits.

That is, according to the contributions made by these cultivators, they are given corresponding merit points. Using these merit points, they can be exchanged for some items that are difficult to see from the outside.

These items include magical instruments and exercises, such as the old ginseng that Mo Zixuan exchanged, which is not seen outside at all, because it grows in the restricted area of ​​the space crack.

In order to exchange this old ginseng, Mo Zixuan spent all of his merit points in the past few years. It was not enough, so he asked Professor Lei to borrow some.

"So that's how it is."

Su Xiaofan's EQ is not enough in front of women, but his IQ is definitely high enough. After drinking his half bowl of soup, he suddenly covered his nose.

"Brother, your nose is bleeding!"

Su Xiaoxiao's voice sounded, and she saw the blood oozing from her brother's fingers.

"Cough, cough, it's too weak, the deficiency can't be replenished."

Su Xiaofan quickly raised his head, took the tissue from his sister, and wiped off all the blood.

"This soup is too nourishing. I just couldn't bear it after drinking half a bowl."

Su Xiaofan shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Xiao Xiao, Zixuan, drink up the remaining soup in the pot, it would be too wasteful if you pour it away."

Seeing the blood on Su Xiaofan's finger, Mo Zixuan and Su Xiaoxiao didn't suspect anything, after all, even the blood dripped out, so it couldn't be fake.

In fact, it was really Su Xiaofan who was fooling the two of them.

To be honest, this old ginseng soup has a little effect on him, but it is really negligible. If it is exhausted, the speed of converting zhenqi can be a little faster.

Rather than drinking it all by herself, it would be better for my younger sister. She has just broken through to the Qi training stage, and it is time to consolidate her cultivation, but this ginseng soup has a lot of effect on her.

As for Mo Zixuan, it's just because of her younger sister.

No matter how straight and straight Su Xiaofan was, he was too embarrassed to say that he only let his sister drink alone, that would be too shameless, after all, the old ginseng was brought back by Mo Zixuan.

"Zixuan, how do you exchange items from your relevant departments?"

Su Xiaofan's lack of interest in this old ginseng does not mean that he is not interested in other things, the power of the country is much stronger than their hermit sects, so the good things are naturally in the country.

"According to our contributions, the relevant departments will give corresponding merit points."

Mo Zixuan didn't have any defenses against Su Xiaofan, Su Xiaofan himself was a cultivator, and Su Xiaoxiao's elder brother, so he was considered half of his own.

"It's like when I came to be a counselor in a special recruitment class, I got merit points, but not many."

Being a counselor in a special recruitment class and leading a group of rookies is still very heavy work, so there will be corresponding merit points.

Merit points are not easy to get, just like some clerical jobs in related departments, which only give salary and benefits, but no merit points.

"Then how can we get a lot of merit points?" Su Xiaofan asked.

"Promote and set out missions!"

Mo Zixuan said: "If you can improve your cultivation, you will be rewarded with some merit points, but the amount is very small.

If you want to get a lot of merit points, you can only do missions.

Relevant departments will issue some tasks related to the restricted area of ​​space cracks. If they can be completed, they can be exchanged for merit points. "

"It's a pity that my cultivation base is still low, and I haven't been on a mission yet. Otherwise, I can exchange some warmer medicinal materials for you."

Mo Zixuan showed an embarrassed look on her face. Among the items exchanged by the relevant departments, there was also a Ganoderma lucidum that was said to be seven or eight hundred years old.

However, the exchange price of that Ganoderma lucidum was twice that of this old ginseng. Even if Mo Zixuan got the promotion merit point reward, it was far from enough to exchange for that Ganoderma lucidum.

"Can outsiders take on your mission?"

Su Xiaofan asked what was in his heart. He didn't want to join the relevant department, but he was very interested in the rewards from the relevant department.

Because it is obvious that many items that are helpful for cultivation are monopolized by relevant departments, and they cannot be bought in the market at all.

Just like the old ginseng exchanged by Mo Zixuan, and the 700-800-year-old Ganoderma lucidum she mentioned, they will never be circulated in the market at all, and it is estimated that they will be intercepted by relevant departments as soon as they appear.

"I really don't know that."

Mo Zixuan said apologetically: "I was assigned to take Xiaoxiao and the others this time, and I haven't received the task yet. I don't know the specific situation very well. I will ask you when I go back."

"Well, if outsiders can take on the task, you can call me and tell me."

Su Xiaofan nodded, and asked again: "If the relevant departments don't have what I need, can I exchange merit points for other items?"

"It might work."

Mo Zixuan hesitated for a moment, then said: "Award points are very precious, even a few merit points can't be bought with 100,000 yuan. If the things you want to exchange will not harm the country, it should be fine."

"Okay, Zixuan, Xiaoxiao, drink up the ginseng soup quickly."

Su Xiaofan got the answer he needed, and there was nothing left to ask.

Are meteorites harmful to the country?

Of course not, that thing is in the hands of relevant departments, at best it is used for research on cosmic stars and extraterrestrial matter.

It cannot be said that meteorites are not precious, but that is the same thing. There are so many meteorites that fall on the earth every year, and I believe that many countries have picked up a lot.

If an outsider can take the task and get merit points, Su Xiaofan believes that the relevant departments should accept his proposal of exchanging meteorites.

Of course, this also requires Su Xiaofan to show the corresponding ability, so that they can form a relatively equal relationship as much as possible, otherwise the ant will raise conditions to the elephant, may the elephant accept it?

As for the spirit stone, that is, the energy stone, Su Xiaofan didn't ask at all. He guessed that Mo Zixuan probably didn't even know there was such a thing.

Spiritual stones have a great effect on cultivators. Those things are in the hands of relevant departments, and they are definitely strategic materials. Outsiders may not even think about exchanging them.

Watching Mo Zixuan and Su Xiaoxiao drink ginseng soup, Su Xiaofan asked them to stay at home to practice, the environment here is no worse than that of school.

And with Su Xiaofan watching, if something goes wrong when the two of them are practicing, Su Xiaofan can also rescue them in time.

It was not until the next day that Mo Zixuan and Su Xiaoxiao finished training.

Su Xiaoxiao's cultivation has been stabilized at the level of qi training. After generating true qi, Su Xiaoxiao's body will discharge some dirt and impurities after the previous few training sessions, and it will gradually improve in the future.

As for Mo Zixuan, he has stabilized his cultivation in the late stage of Qi training, but there is still a long way to go before the state of three flowers gathering at the top, which is the official foundation building stage.

Su Xiaofan came to Yanjing this time, firstly to receive this villa, to study the practice notes of the sages and elders of the school, and secondly to give advice to his younger sister, now it is all completed.

Compared with the obvious progress of Mo Zixuan and Su Xiaoxiao's cultivation, Su Xiaofan's cultivation at this time seems to be a bit stagnant.

According to Su Xiaofan's estimate, it will take at least a few years to completely convert all the true energy in the dantian into true energy.

But guarding the repair system, let Su Xiaofan do the work of grinding rocks, he is naturally unwilling.

After thinking about it, Su Xiaofan felt that he still had to find rare meteorites and recharge the repair system with repair points.

Forget about the Ajin Mountains, where the mountains are now covered by heavy snow, and the meteorites are buried under the snow, so he can't detect them.

So Su Xiaofan plans to go to Death Valley in the near future, to see if he can gather the repair value of Yinshen cultivation technique in that place.

After Mo Zixuan and Su Xiaoxiao returned to school, Su Xiaofan also drove back to Luochuan with Duobao.

The money for the eight ancient spring treasures auctioned at Xiangjiang Auction House has already been credited to the company's account.

The Zabzaya wooden bowl delivered to the auction house was auctioned the day after Su Xiaofan and Zheng Dagang left.

Since this wooden bowl is the only one left among the people besides the National Museum, it has a very high collection value, so it was auctioned at a high price of 24 million on the second day.

That is to say, in this auction alone, the items provided by Su Xiaofan sold for 90 million yuan.

Even if the auction house's 4% commission and the exchange rate of Hong Kong paper to RMB are removed, Su Xiaofan and Zheng Dagang's company has earned 70 million.

So after Su Xiaofan gave Zheng Dagang all the jades he got from Ao Island, he didn't take care of the company anymore.

This batch of ancient jade is enough to open a special jade auction. It depends on how Brother Gang negotiates with the auction house. If the agreement is reached, it can be auctioned next spring.

Su Xiaofan also gave Brother Gang a task, that is to ask him to search for rare meteorites all over the world, whether it is in auction houses or private hands, try to collect them as much as possible.

After this auction, Brother Gang has also established a good relationship with the auction house, but he learned from the auction house that some individuals have rare meteorites hidden in their hands.

Brother Gang's European visa has been processed, and the fresh female graduates specially invited from Yanjing Foreign Languages ​​Institute are also in place, and they are planning to go abroad in a few days.

Su Xiaofan returned to Luochuan, specially brought Brother Gang to his master, and showed Brother Gang a piece of spirit stone.

Su Xiaofan told Brother Gang that if you encounter similar stones abroad, you must find a way to take them down, and if you encounter things you are not sure about, try to buy them back.

With Su Xiaofan's entrustment, Brother Gang got on the plane to Europe full of ambition,

Of course, there is also a tender female translator who can pinch water. At this moment, Brother Gang feels that he has reached the pinnacle of his life.

...

"Master, I plan to go to Death Valley recently."

After sending Brother Gang away, Su Xiaofan decided to communicate with Master.

After all, Death Valley has existed for a long time, there are hundreds of years of recorded time, far from being comparable to places like Shuangmen Village, Su Xiaofan still intends to find out first.

"What are you doing in the restricted area now?"

Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan with some puzzlement, "You don't need inner alchemy to practice, and the extraordinary creatures in Death Valley, we may not be able to deal with them."

"Master knows Death Valley very well?"

Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, before he really rarely talked about the restricted area with his master, ahem... The main reason is that Su Xiaofan's cultivation progressed too fast, Jing Shizhen didn't want to talk to him.

"Of course I understand. There are few restricted areas at home and abroad that I don't know."

Jing Shizhen had a proud look on his face, he really thought that his title as the number one casual cultivator outside the official system was for nothing.

Yes, it is casual cultivators. Except for official cultivators, all other practitioners of any sect are included in the ranks of hermit casual cultivators.

In the modern society with advanced technology, those great sects in ancient times have long since declined, only two or three kittens are left, and even the Taoism of the Heavenly Master is torn apart, and there is no capital to negotiate terms with the authorities. Naturally, what the authorities say is wrong .

However, casual practice also has the benefits of casual practice, and there are many less shackles on the body.

Just like Jing Shizhen, in order to obtain the inner alchemy of supernatural beings, he has traveled almost all the restricted areas of space cracks on the entire planet in the past few decades.

Speaking of his familiarity with the restricted areas, Jing Shizhen said that no one dares to say that the first is the second, and it was this spirit that allowed him to pick up a loophole in Shuangmen Village.

In fact, what happened in Shuangmen Village was later known to the relevant departments.

But for one thing, the officials themselves were negligent and failed to find out that there were extraordinary creatures there, so Jing Shizhen couldn't be blamed for this.

Secondly, Jing Shizhen also did something beneficial to the country back then. In the border disputes in the 1970s and 1980s, Jing Shizhen led people to resist the head-down masters in Southeast Asia and Western cultivators, which can be regarded as a great contribution .

So the officials turned a blind eye this time, and did not pursue the matter of the extraordinary creature Neidan, otherwise it would not be so easy for Jing Shizhen to bring Neidan to Xiangjiang.

"Master, come and listen to me..."

Su Xiaofan poured a cup of tea for the master, pretending to be listening, he knew that the master was the best.

"Don't inquire about that first, tell Master why you are going to the restricted area?" Jing Shizhen waved his hand, not being fooled by Su Xiaofan.

"Master, I think my realm is enough, but my strength and realm don't quite match!"

Su Xiaofan said the reason he had thought up, "I have always cultivated step by step, and I have never fought with others. I have too little actual combat experience, and now I also feel as if I have encountered a bottleneck and have been unable to break through?"

"It's only been a few days since you broke through the Three Flowers Realm? Are you thinking about breaking through again?"

What does Jing Shizhen think of Su Xiaofan at this moment, how displeased he is, he has just consolidated the first level of the Three Flowers Gathering Realm, and Su Xiaofan actually wants to break through to the third level.

"Ahem, master, I feel that the progress of cultivation has stagnated."

Su Xiaofan coughed twice, and said: "Also, I have little experience in actual combat. If I fight with others in the future, I might embarrass you, so I want to go to the restricted area to hone..."

"By the way, Master, if you're lucky, you might be able to help Aunt Mei get an inner alchemy for an extraordinary creature."

Su Xiaofan knew what Master wanted most now, now that Aunt Mei has spiritual stones to practice, she will use her inner alchemy sooner or later.

"With your current cultivation base, it's still a bit difficult to fight against extraordinary creatures head-on."

Jing Shizhen thought for a while, shook her head, and said, "We master and apprentice go together, maybe there is still a little chance, well, you have to count your tiger cat."

"Master is going too? That's even better."

Su Xiaofan was stunned when he heard the words, but it didn't matter, he absorbed the meteorite himself and there was no movement, just be careful not to let the master find out.

"Master, then please tell me about the restricted areas first, both at home and abroad."

"In China, there is a restricted area in the Ajin Mountains."

"Is it Death Valley?" Su Xiaofan interrupted Master.

"No, the restricted area in Death Valley is part of the Kunlun Mountains."

Jing Shizhen shook her head, and said: "The restricted area in the Ajin Mountains is located on a high mountain, and it is called the restricted area in the sky!

The climate near the restricted area of ​​the sky is too harsh, around minus 30 degrees all year round, so no one goes there unless it is blocked. I have only been to that place once. "

When Jing Shizhen said this, she put gold on her face.

The low temperature of minus 30 degrees can pose a threat even to cultivators. Jing Shizhen could only barely get out of the restricted area of ​​the sky with her cultivation base of the Great Zhou, and did not dare to enter at all.

"anything else?"

Su Xiaofan continued to ask, Su Xiaofan didn't have much interest in the forbidden area with extremely high altitude, it was covered with snow all the year round, even if meteorites fell, he couldn't find it.

"Do you know the Wulong River in Jiupan Mountain?"

Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan and said, "Actually, going to Death Valley is worse than going to Wulong River. Death Valley is far more dangerous than Wulong River."

"I've never heard of Wulong River, tell me, master." Su Xiaofan shook his head, he didn't major in geography, so how could he know so many place names.

"The Wulonghe restricted area is considered a place, and that place is located in Jiupan Mountain, known as the Gate of Ghosts..."

The Jiupan Mountain that Jing Shizhen mentioned is a well-known scenic spot in Northwest China. It covers a very large area, with numerous mountains and vast sea of ​​clouds. Wulong River is located in the core area of ​​Jiupan Mountain.

However, Wulong River has a catchphrase in the local area, "Ghost Gate Pass, Shantaoshan, easy to get in, hard to get out", because many dangerous incidents have happened here, people who go in will most likely not get out.

"Master, let's forget about those legends, you should talk about something dry."

Su Xiaofan interrupted Master's words, Shuangmen Village is still called a ghost village, it's not because of the crack in space.

The same is true of the Wulong River. Those so-called legends are just to scare tourists and prevent them from going in.

Jing Shizhen glared at Su Xiaofan, and said angrily: "As long as you talk a lot of nonsense, what I said is dry stuff!"

"Xiaofan, according to your master, that place is not all caused by space cracks."

Aunt Mei next to her also said, "I went to that place back then, but Brother Jing didn't let me in."

"Do you hear me? Listen to me carefully and don't interrupt me."

In terms of cultivation, he can't compare to his disciple, but in terms of knowledge, Jing Shizhen still has to beat Su Xiaofan.

It's nearly 12,000 today, ask for a monthly pass!
