Chapter 181
A melee at the Republic Hotel allowed Wang Zhu to see the power of the talisman. Without the Thunder Talisman, it would have been impossible for Wang Zhu to bring Shi Xiaobao out of the encirclement.
However, the power of the Thunder Talisman somewhat disappointed Wang Zhu.
To put it simply, the thunder talisman is just a fake, scaring people with its loud voice, but its actual destructive power is negligible. There is no doubt that the Thunder Talisman needs to be combined with the Electric Talisman to exert its real lethality.
At the same time, it also made him realize the importance of pills.
Thinking of the broad prospects of talismans and elixirs, Wang Zhu couldn't help but feel complacent. In the future, even if he has no achievements in cultivation, he can still rely on these two crafts to support his family.
Inexplicably, Wang Zhu thought of some sellers of dog skin plasters during the rural fairs. If he was replaced, there must be a lot of people.
Next, to Wang Zhu's great delight, the effect of alchemy in the pressure cooker was surprisingly good.
In just a few hours, Wang Chu has released hundreds of "healing pills" with simple ingredients. The so-called simple healing pills are actually some common medicinal materials refined by ancient methods.
Anyway, pills can't kill people, so poor Shi Xiaobao became Wang Zhu's experimental product. Every ten minutes, Wang Zhu would feed him a lot of pills. At first, Shi Xiaobao smashed his tongue, thinking The elixir tastes okay, and it's good as a snack, but if you eat it continuously, you'll get tired of eating even ginseng fruit.
In the early hours of the morning, Shi Xiaobao didn't eat all day, because he was full after taking the pills.
In fact, Wang Chu himself did not eat less.
Seeing that Shi Xiaobao ate with gusto, Wang Zhu paid attention to the taste, and added some flavor-enhancing things into it according to his own preferences, such as hay, tortoise jelly, rock sugar, cream and so on.
If the ancient cultivators knew that Wang Zhu turned alchemy into making snacks, they would probably get up from the grave...
...
Of course, Shi Xiaobao's injuries, who ate the pills like melon seeds, still improved significantly, and the terrifying palm marks on his chest became faintly visible, not as clear and distinct as before.
For the next week, Wang Zhu stayed at home all day and used a pressure cooker to make alchemy, while the girl went out to buy some necessities for Wang Zhu and Shi Xiaobao.
Now, Wang Chu already knew the girl's name - Li Ruoqing.
Li Ruoqing doesn't seem to like to talk, she just smiles shyly, she is responsive to Wang Zhu's request, but she never chats with Wang Zhu.
In addition to helping the two of them, Li Ruoqing asked Shi Xiaobao some questions in her spare time, such as some lockpicking skills and some taboos of gentlemen on the beam.
"Stupid brother, how is Ruoqing?" Shi Xiaobao threw a pill into his mouth, chewing it.
"not bad."
Wang Zhu buried his head in the pressure cooker. He was researching some expensive pill prescriptions, but the current effect was not very satisfactory.
The pressure cooker cannot completely replace the alchemy stove. After all, the pressure cooker does not have Yin Yang, Eight Diagrams and Five Elements. It is fine for refining ordinary pills, but it is not good for making some panacea.
It's a pity that I don't know how to refine weapons.
If one can refine weapons, it is not difficult to become the world's top rich man by virtue of the three skills of talisman, alchemy, and weapon refining. Maybe he can keep pace with the Wang family in the future...
"Brother Stupid, what's not bad?" Shi Xiaobao was very dissatisfied with Wang Zhu's perfunctory, and shot a pill to Wang Zhu's mouth.
"Ah...cough cough..." Wang Zhu just opened his mouth, and the pill shot directly into his throat.
"Brother Stupid, do you think it's possible for me and Ruoqing?" Shi Xiaobao asked enthusiastically.
"No." Wang Zhu coughed a few times and didn't cough up the elixir, so he simply swallowed his saliva.
"Why?" Shi Xiaobao asked with a depressed face.
"It's good that she admires you, but that's not like you."
"Isn't worship like love?"
"What do you think?"
"..." Shi Xiaobao looked frustrated.
"However, you still have a chance, at least, she doesn't hate you.
"
"Really?" Shi Xiaobao was immediately pleasantly surprised.
"Usually, if a woman doesn't hate a man, then she may fall in love with him. Of course, this is not absolute..."
"I know, I know, brother stupid, teach me how to do it!" Shi Xiaobao regards Wang Zhu's skill of picking up girls as a heavenly man. In his eyes, there is no girl that Wang Zhu can't catch up with. for idols.
"Don't worry, time is still long, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so take your time." Wang Zhu put the prepared medicinal materials into the pressure cooker, picked up the pressure cooker and walked to the kitchen.
"Aren't we going to run away?" Shi Xiaobao chased to the kitchen, scooped up half a bowl of semi-finished ointment of the elixir, ate it with a spoon, and put half a spoonful of sugar.
"City C definitely can't stay here any longer, but we're going to miss a peak of pursuit and escape."
"People from the Wang family will chase and kill you, young master?" Shi Xiaobao took a mouthful of the ointment and felt that it was not sweet, so he put another spoonful of sugar in it, stirred it a few times, tasted it, and smacked his mouth in satisfaction.
"The Wang family is a huge family. Do you think my cheap father is the earth emperor? In the family, there are many people restraining him. Apart from his brothers, there is also my grandfather on top, and many eyes are staring at him. What about him, besides, you made this matter big, not only Wang Hanbo became a vegetable, but his father was also killed by you, I think my cheap father can't help me."
"Hmph, you're still complaining about Brother Bao doing it on his own!" Shi Xiaobao naturally heard Wang Zhu's subtext.
"Hey, things turned around." Wang Zhu put the lid on the pressure cooker and turned on the gas stove.
"Stupid brother, why do you always fail to understand? I killed Wang Zhaoyou, but for your own good, after weeding out the roots, the rest of the Wang family, who the hell are full, will chase you to offend you." Your cheap dad?"
"There is also Wang Hanchao." Wang Zhu smiled wryly.
"Don't worry, Wang Hanchao will become my soul sooner or later." Shi Xiaobao said confidently.
"Don't act rashly, they are waiting for us to show up now." Wang Zhu was taken aback.
"I am..."
"Dong dong dong dong..." There was a knock on the door outside.
"Li Ruoqing is back."
Shi Xiaobao dropped the bowl in his hand, and rushed out to open the door with a stride.
"Violence!"
Looking at the half bowl of unfinished ointment, Wang Zhu poured it into the container with a distressed face. This is his painstaking effort, so it cannot be wasted!
It's unhygienic, Wang Chu didn't bother to think about it, anyway, he didn't eat it.
Suddenly, Wang Zhu thought of the elixir that Shi Xiaobao had just thrown into his mouth, and couldn't help retching a few times. No one knew better than him how dirty these elixirs were, because he never washed his hands when he went to the toilet...
"Brother Stupid, this is what you need." Li Ruoqing handed Wang Chu a large plastic bag.
"Thank you."
"Ruoqing, this is a new variety developed by Brother Stupid today. It tastes good, try it." Shi Xiaobao politely picked up the plate on the coffee table. Inside the plate were all the pills made by Wang Stupid, colorful and very beautiful.
"Thanks. Well, it tastes good."
Li Ruoqing picked up one to taste, then nodded slightly.
"Eat slowly."
Watching the two eat the elixir he worked so hard to refine as a snack, Wang Zhu's heart was bleeding, and he returned to his studio, the kitchen, with a plastic bag.
For a whole week, Wang Chu stayed in the rented house refining pills, and occasionally drew some talismans.
During this time, Wang Zhu admitted to Shi Xiaobao that he was a cultivator.
After Shi Xiaobao knew Wang Zhu's identity as a cultivator, he was not as surprised as Wang Zhu imagined, but lacked interest.
It wasn't until later that Wang Zhu understood why Shi Xiaobao had no interest in cultivation, because, in Shi Xiaobao's view, cultivation meant being a Taoist priest or a monk.
Although Shi Xiaobao is still a virgin, he is really not interested in Taoist monks, and now he is planning to break his virgin body.
In Shi Xiaobao's eyes, Wang Zhu was a little neurotic. He made up some useless pills all day long.
Even, Shi Xiaobao earnestly asked Wang Zhu to put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately...
...
Wang Zhu was a little speechless against Shi Xiaobao's prejudice, but he couldn't convince Shi Xiaobao.
Originally, Wang Chou wanted Shi Xiaobao to cultivate the truth, but Shi Xiaobao instead advised him not to go astray and let him learn how to be a gentleman. If it doesn't work, being a killer is more promising than a Taoist priest pretending to be a ghost.
In the end, no one can convince anyone, let it go.
However, Wang Chou hasn't given Shi Xiaobao any benefits yet. He has refined a large number of pills for him as snacks. , it will be a matter of course.
Today is the seventh day.
Li Ruoqing was sent by Shi Xiaobao to inquire about news, and the two chatted on the sofa.
"Wang stupid, I'm too lazy to care about you if you are obsessed with studying evil and crooked ways, but if you harm the common people, don't blame my brother Bao for righteously destroying relatives and eliminating harm for the people!" Shi Xiaobao threw a pill into his mouth.
"Nonsense, you've offended me, I'll send you, a stupid thief, to the law enforcement agency now." Wang Zhuda said sternly,
"Hey... It's great to be Wang Jie's son, and he's still a law enforcement agency." Shi Xiaobao snorted and threw a handful of pills at Wang Chu.
"Brother, eat as much as you want, don't throw it away!" Wang Zhu said distressedly.
"Damn it, it's really a panacea for bringing the dead back to life." Shi Xiaobao threw another pill at Wang Zhu's face.
"Brother Bao, stop making trouble, it's not easy to prepare such a bowl of elixir!" Wang Zhu snatched the bowl containing the elixir from Shi Xiaobao's hand.
"Brother Stupid, you are a researcher of heresy ways, can you get some medicine like Hehuansan?" Shi Xiaobao rolled his eyes.
"What is Hehuansan?"
"Damn it, Hehuansan doesn't even know... Well, Brother Bao will help you to eliminate illiteracy, it's almost as effective as that Indian oil..."
"You are still a virgin?" Wang Zhu turned pale with shock.
"Halo... Stupid brother, I mean something that can make women desire, what can't be done, Brother Bao can do it!" Shi Xiaobao straightened his chest, looking mighty and majestic.
"Brother Bao..." Wang Zhu was speechless.
"Stupid brother, help me!" Shi Xiaobao begged.
"No, I'm speaking of principles, and I will never do bad things like lightning strikes these days." Wang Zhi said righteously.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's up to eight generations, it doesn't matter."
"...Brother Bao, even Li Ruoqing doesn't like you, okay? What's the point of using despicable means to get her body?" Wang Zhu earnestly persuaded.
"I don't want her heart, but I want her!" Shi Xiaobao said righteously.
"We're leaving tonight, it's too late."
"Ah... shall we leave tonight?" Shi Xiaobao looked dull.
"My talisman is also finished, and the elixir is also finished. It is not suitable to stay in City C for a long time. It is better to leave early and come back after the limelight passes."
"If you want to go, you go, I want to accompany Ruoqing."
"It's difficult to be quiet."
"Is it difficult to be quiet?" Shi Xiaobao stood up abruptly.
"Yes, he was trapped in an old castle, and his life and death are uncertain."
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Shi Xiaobao said angrily.
"I'm afraid that you will be impulsive, and you will save people before your injury heals. Besides, it's an extraordinary time. It's the best choice to hide at home to avoid the limelight, so as not to cause trouble."
"Ke Ke...Okay, we'll leave at night." Shi Xiaobao was anxious like ants on a hot pot. For Shi Xiaobao, brotherhood is always more important than women.
