Chapter 1269 A Generous Return of Gift
Lu Jingchen's old face turned red from suppressing it. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "We are destined to meet each other. Since Mr. Tang and I have this fate and we can meet today, I will give this sapling to him as a meeting gift." .”
Seeing Lu Jingchen's reluctant look, not only Zixuan, but others also had the same question.
The trees around here form a circle. At a rough look, there are at least several hundred trees. Even if these saplings are priceless and cannot be obtained easily, there are so many in Qinghong Sect, and Lu Jingchen is not like this. Bar?
Only Tang Feng, with a smile on his face, nodded to Lu Jingchen and said, "Your greeting gift is quite important. Since Sect Leader Lu is so generous, I can't accept your gift without returning it. "
Lu Jingchen still had a pained expression on his face, and his beard was trembling slightly. He didn't seem to hear Tang Feng's words clearly, and he just responded casually: "You're welcome, sir."
Tang Feng looked at his absent-minded look and showed a somewhat amused expression. He put his hand into his pocket and when he took it out, a small jade-carved bottle appeared in his palm.
"Inside, there are fifteen Xiao Yiben Pills, which are the pills I just gave you. In addition, there are three Strengthening Pills, which are more effective than Xiao Yi Ben Pills."
Tang Feng's words not only stunned Lu Jingchen, but also those who followed him were shocked.
Most of these people knew the value of Tang Feng's elixir. It was not easy to get one on ordinary days, but Tang Feng was so generous and gave so much to Lu Jingchen at once. It was really shocking. Stunning.
Can a sapling from the Qinghong Sect be exchanged for so many elixirs? Isn't this just a pretty ordinary looking tree? There are hundreds of trees here. Didn't Lu Jingchen make a lot of money?
Lu Jingchen just stared blankly at the jade bottle in Tang Feng's hand. He was stunned, as if he had lost the ability to think.
Yiwen behind him softly called "Master" before he came back to his senses and quickly bowed to Tang Feng and said: "Thank you sir, thank you sir!"
Then, he stretched out his hands, tremblingly, took the jade bottle in his hand, then held it tightly, raised it to his eyes, and looked at it with excitement and excitement in his eyes. He looked at it again and again. After a while, , only to come back to his senses, he quickly held the jade bottle tightly in his hand, bowed to Tang Feng again and thanked him.
The previous frustration and sadness because Tang Feng was leaving a tree disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Lin Mengjia quietly asked in Tang Feng's ear: "What is that tree used for? Is it worth exchanging so many elixirs for it?"
Tang Feng smiled and nodded.
The rest of the people looked at him with doubts.
Tang Feng looked in the direction of the tree and said with a smile: "Do you think that the trees around here are all the same and you can't see any difference?"
Lin Mengjia nodded repeatedly.
Zixuan also said: "This tall, short, fat and thin guy is exactly the same mold. Is it possible that you can see anything unusual?"
Rong Guocheng also followed: "Sir, what's the difference?"
Tang Feng pointed to the golden branches and jade leaves beside him and said: "That tree is its seedling."
"Seedlings? You can't tell at all!" Zixuan looked at the golden branches and jade leaves, and then at the trees that were no different from ordinary trees. "The branches of those trees all looked ordinary, and there was no golden branches and jade leaves at all. , Besides, even if there are so many seedlings, Sect Leader Lu won’t feel so distressed, right?”
Tang Feng raised the corner of his mouth and said, "How many? This seedling is unique."
At this time, not only Zixuan, but also Lin Mengjia expressed their incomprehension. They quickly shook Tang Feng's arm and said, "Stop being so pretentious and tell me what's going on."
Tang Feng said with a smile: "One characteristic of Golden Branches and Jade Leaves is that a spiritual tree can only give birth to one seedling that can reproduce at the same time. In other words, among the many trees here, only that one can grow. After planting it, it will grow into a new tree with golden branches and jade leaves.”
"What about the rest? They all look exactly the same. How come only one tree can grow?" Lin Mengjia looked around, but still couldn't tell whether the tree Tang Feng pointed to was different from the rest. , what is the difference.
Tang Feng said calmly: "On the surface, it looks similar, but in fact, there are spiritual roots in that single sapling. This spiritual tree can only instill its spiritual veins into that one tree." Among the remaining ones, only after this one leaves, will one with spiritual roots reappear in one of them, taking the place of the previous one. However, this spiritual root is formed and matures to the point where it can It will take at least five hundred years to remove it."
Listening to Tang Feng's eloquent talk, everyone suddenly understood why Lu Jingchen had been so miserable just now.
Thinking about it, it only took more than a thousand years for the Qinghong Sect to come here. In this thousand years, there was only such a sapling that could reproduce, and it was taken away by Tang Feng. If you want to get another one, you have to If he waits another five hundred years, considering his current age and cultivation, he may not be able to see that day, and he will inevitably be reluctant to part with him.
But at this time, Lu Jingchen was not as disappointed as before.
He was holding the jade bottle containing the elixir, looking at it carefully, and gently opened the mouth of the bottle. He did not pour the elixir out, but squinted his eyes and looked inside.
The corners of his mouth were trembling slightly, and his white beard was trembling constantly. Just smelling the fragrance of the elixir was enough to make him feel relaxed and happy.
Yi Wen and the other two people also stretched their necks and looked eagerly at his hands, with expressions of excitement and covetousness on their faces.
They also know how difficult it is to get the elixir in this bottle, but they are envious because they are afraid that this elixir will not be their turn, so they can only take a look at it to enjoy it.
Realizing that everyone's attention was focused on him, Lu Jingchen hurriedly closed the jade bottle and put it in his arms. It was obvious that he was just looking at the jade bottle and didn't care what everyone said.
He cupped his hands towards Tang Feng again and said, "Mr. Tang, how are you going to take away this sapling? Do you need me to find some disciples to help you dig it out?"
Tang Feng shook his head and said, "This means I don't have to worry about it anymore."
While speaking, Tang Feng gently waved his hand in the direction of the tree, and in full view of everyone, the tree disappeared.
