Chapter 2209: Destined to Come

Zhou Shu was stunned, "What?"

The steward looked directly at Zhou Shu, without any intention of giving in. "You have been included in the unwelcome list of our store, so we will not accept you. I also ask fellow Taoist Zhou to go to other places."

Zhou Shu said calmly, "It seems to be my first time here."

The steward shook his head, "This has nothing to do with me. I just act according to the rules. I hope fellow Taoist Zhou will understand."

Several people gathered around, seeming to watch the fun, but also seemed to have other ideas.

Zhou Shu smiled lightly and said, "Okay, then I'll go look elsewhere."

If others don't let him in, he can't force his way in. Of course, whether he can break in or not is another matter.

What's going on with this unwelcome list?

It didn't take him long to figure out the answer.

Four stores in a row turned him away, using the same reason.

His reputation has increased, but he has become unpopular. There is certainly no such reason in the world. The reason why he is not allowed to enter these shops must be Chang Tian's side. They try to restrict Zhou Shu as much as possible so that he cannot practice well and cannot practice well. Do what you want to do.

Not to mention buying elixirs, if Zhou Shu went to take the mission now, he would definitely be rejected.

This was what Ke Buyie was like back then. After he offended Chang Tian, ​​basically all normal communication was gone. His friends moved away from him, his shop was closed to him, and he couldn't get any tasks he wanted to do.

This is the advantage of being powerful. Just a few words can make it difficult for a person to survive in the city.

After all, for these shops, this is an easy choice to make. Losing one customer is nothing, but offending a supervisor is a big problem.

Fortunately, there is Zhibaoxuan, otherwise there would be no place to practice. Fortunately, the immortal does not need to eat, otherwise he would starve to death.

Zhou Shu secretly laughed at himself and planned to leave. It seemed that there was no place for him to go on the whole street. There were stewards standing in front of almost all the shops. They all looked at Zhou Shu with a hint of vigilance.

Reaching the end of the street, Zhou Shu stopped.

There is a small shop at the corner of the street. The door is less than three feet wide. There is a curtain on the top. There are no words on the curtain, only a round pill is painted on it.

This elixir gave Zhou Shu a feeling of déjà vu, but it was unclear where the feeling came from.

There was no one in front of the store, maybe because it was too small, and even Chang Tian didn't want to waste his energy.

Zhou Shu walked in and always tried his luck, even if it was a low-class shop.

After entering, there is a short alley, which seems to be only a few feet long, but it takes a long time to walk to the end.

The end is not big, a room with a radius of seven to eight feet, and there is no trace of any formation. There are many shelves of different heights in the middle, and several people are busy in it.

"What does the guest want?"

An old man came over and saluted Zhou Shu with a smile.

Zhou Shu returned the gift with a smile, and immediately felt something different, but it was not just because the old man's attitude towards him was completely different from that of other shop stewards, but because the old man was actually a true immortal. When he took a closer look, he discovered the busy people inside. Everyone is a true immortal, even the one serving tea and water.

The stewards in high-end shops are basically all immortals. There are few true immortals who are willing to show their faces and serve people, but here they are all true immortals.

It's very unusual, it doesn't look like a store at all.

Zhou Shu paused for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "Fellow Taoist, have I come to the wrong place?"

The old man chuckled, pointed inside and said, "It's destiny to come in, so you can't be wrong. This is indeed a place that sells elixirs, but the elixirs we have here are not so easy to take away, haha."

"I really can't afford it, so I'm resigning."

Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, without looking too much, and slowly backed away.

This matter is weird. There must be a demon when things go wrong. There is already a Chang Tian. If he falls into other troubles, it will be very bad. Moreover, he is already suspecting that this may be a trap set by Chang Tian to deliberately attract him. , I am afraid that formations have already been set up around them.

In fact, he should have noticed something wrong in the alley, but Zhou Shu didn't expect that someone would actually do something in the city.

The old man was startled when he heard the sound, "Fellow Taoist, this..."

Zhou Shu smiled and retreated directly.

The alley was still very long, but nothing happened and we were outside soon.

The old man turned around and shook his head slightly, "This Zhou Shu is so cowardly? He ran away before he finished speaking. It's not like he wanted to steal his money."

"As if we were going to harm him."

A rich and handsome young man couldn't help but chuckle, "Senior even said that he is interesting for such a person. Could it be that I have misjudged him? We have been kept waiting for so many days in vain. It is really boring."

A woman beside him put down her tea cup and said in a serious voice, "Lang Yi, don't speak ill of Master Mu behind his back."

The woman was about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was quite petite and not very beautiful. She only had one pair of bright black eyes that blinked like twinkling gems.

Lang Yi hesitated for a moment, feeling helpless, "I didn't say anything...forget it, let's not say it anymore."

Another middle-aged man said slowly, "Mr. I deliberately scared him off, but it’s not good either.”

The old man nodded, "It's my fault too, just make it clear and I'll go take a look."

Zhou Shu was standing under the curtain, looking thoughtful.

There will definitely be nothing wrong outside, and he also wants to figure out where the feeling this pill gives him comes from. It feels like he has seen it before but also like he has never seen it before. It is very strange, but he does not feel the dangerous atmosphere from it. , it doesn’t look like Chang Tian put it here intentionally.

The old man approached with a smile, "Fellow Taoist, are you Zhou Shu?"

Zhou Shu nodded, secretly guessing his purpose, "Exactly."

The old man said warmly, "I, Xue Wenfu, is an alchemy master, and the others inside are also alchemy masters. We studied alchemy with Senior Mu, and we also heard the names of fellow Taoists from Senior Mu. Among them was Lang Yi. The fellow Taoist wanted to meet you, so he asked for a pill flag from the senior, and then waited for the fellow Taoist to come and use pills to meet him. Just now, my words were vague, and I offended you a lot. I hope you don't blame me, fellow Taoist."

Zhou Shu's expression was slightly condensed. Seeing that the old man's appearance didn't seem to be fake, and what he said was true, he was already convinced.

He seemed to be thinking, "Senior Mu, could he be Chief Mu of the East District?"

Xue Wenfu showed a lot of respect, "Exactly, Senior Mu is a master of alchemy, and we voluntarily learn from her."

"Danqi, what is that?"

Zhou Shu pointed to the curtain. This was the first time he had heard of it.

"The flag that contains the aura of the elixir is actually not of much use. It's just that Senior Mu said that if you have a connection with elixirs, you will come in when you see it." Until Fellow Daoist came in just now, I knew that Fellow Daoist was the person that Senior Mu mentioned, and he must be related to Alchemy."

Zhou Shu stared at the curtain and suddenly realized something.

That feeling came from Mu Xue. When he first met Mu Xue, Mu Xue had such an aura about her. He had never seen an elixir, but he had seen someone who made it.
