Chapter 460 ["Melting Gold"]

"call--"

When He Sheng said this, everyone in the Gao family breathed a sigh of relief. Great, that's a good point. In this way, their family's Xuanyin Water Flame Fire Seed will almost certainly not fail.

It turned out that they had come today to show their power because they had not come to give them gifts yesterday. At worst, they could just give up the things they had taken away and give them a big gift later.

Those things were nothing to the Gao family, and it was a bit painful, but it was better than being chased and bitten by an unscrupulous mad dog.

As soon as the troops from the Qianhu Suo left, a servant immediately went to the yamen to report to their master on duty today what had just happened in the mansion.

When the servant went to the government office, he saw Captain Liu violently smashing the door of the neighbor next door to pieces. And there were roars coming from the neighbor's house.

For the whole morning, the five hundred lieutenants did nothing but "raid the house". Apart from other things, they now know the words and procedures like the back of their hands. Of course, if they were asked to do it, they would definitely not dare to do it, after all, they don't have python clothes.

The strong men of the Qianhu Division were busy as hell. There was nothing they could do, because so many people hadn't given gifts to Mr. He. The lieutenants were copying and copying, and suddenly they were short of manpower, which showed how wealthy the dignitaries were.

Therefore, the strong men who worked as errand boys in the Qianhu Office took the initiative to drive carriages and trucks to deliver things to the He Mansion. Even the well-informed chief steward was stunned when he saw the carts full of gold, silver and other goodies.

Our master has become a robber?
After some questioning, the chief steward had a hard time explaining. His words came true, their master did change his profession and became a robber, and none of the people he robbed were easy to get along with, they were all high-ranking officials.

That’s right, how much money can a poor person have?

He Sheng enjoyed ransacking houses, but the prefect at the yamen was overwhelmed.

At first, it was only the servant of the Gao family who came to report that the mansion was "robbed" by the damn Right Thousand Household of the Thousand Households Office. After that, officials and servants of the gentry came one by one to report the case.

Grasp?
My Lord, I got a hammer.

When your homes were searched, didn’t you see what people were wearing?

Python suit!

Now only the current cabinet chief, the teacher of the current emperor, has one thing. I am just a prefect, how brave do I have to be to send troops to arrest people?

In addition, do you know that the mansion awarded by the emperor is far beyond the specifications of his official position for a right thousand households? It is obvious that he is a favorite of the emperor.

In addition, why is it that the He guy is like a mad dog, ransacking homes and accusing people everywhere, while Wu Ming of the Qianhu Suo has not responded until now?
No response is the greatest consent.

Moreover, the old Wu family, who were the local tyrants of Taiyue Prefecture in Shanzhou, didn't say a word, and it was obvious that they didn't want to offend anyone.

What do I care?

Don’t give a shit.

They didn’t raid my house!
The prefect impatiently drove all the people away, thinking that he could finally have some peace and quiet. However, another person came to the yamen, who was also an acquaintance, the old housekeeper of their family.

"Master, our family"

"Tell me! What happened to our family?"

The prefect was annoyed by the group of people for a long time, and he was very angry. His tone was a little impatient. Damn, if you have something to say, just say it. There is no point in hemming and hawing.

"Our family was raided by the Right Captain of the Captain's Office!"

"???"

The next second, a voice with a hint of swear words rang out from above the yamen gate.

"He Sheng, I'm so cold inside!!"

Unfortunately, the instigator cannot hear it.

Busy all day long.

The He Mansion's storehouse was completely full of things before they stopped. Moreover, after some cunning people learned about this, they brought people to give gifts without saying a word.

I gave you a gift, but you can't raid my house.

A sudden burst of wealth!
It's a bit exaggerated to say that he is the richest man in Shanzhou, but it's not an exaggeration to say that he is in the top ten. Don't think that the He family has robbed so many houses, but it's a bit cheap to be in the top ten in Shanzhou.

There are so many families in Taiyue Prefecture, and some of them have been operating for a hundred years. Some of them are like the old Wu family, which has dominated the area since its establishment. The wealth they have accumulated is not that simple.

The real wealth of the dignitaries actually lies in the countless shops in Taiyue Prefecture, their monopoly businesses, and the vast tracts of fertile land around them.

All I can say is that if Mr. He wants to be the richest man in Shanzhou, he still has to accumulate and accumulate, and after several generations of careful management, he will barely be qualified to compete for the title of richest man.

At night, bedroom.

He was holding the fire of the Xuanyin Water Flame, or to be more precise, the container that protected the fire.

A wisp of flame flowed from the fire into the mouth and nose.

The burning sensation reappeared, but the pain was much, much less than before. Perhaps he had gradually adapted to it, or perhaps the damage done by the Xuanyin Water Flame was less than that of the other four types of flames.

After a long time, the "Advance Future System" flashed information.

"?"

"Melting Gold"!!

He had planned everything, but he had never expected that he could actually advance the next chapter of "Seedling Fire".

There's nothing to hesitate about, just go for it!
[Please choose to advance martial arts: "Shadow-killing Blade Technique", "Growing a Golden Body in Fire: Melting Gold". ]

[Can I ask if I can advance payment for "Growing a Golden Body in Fire: Melting Gold"? ]

[Result: "Growing a Golden Body in the Fire - Melting Gold" is complete, and the internal organs are complete. ]

【因：凝聚五火种——心火种0/1、肝火种0/1、脾火种0/1、肺火种0/1、肾火种0/1。】

【whether? 】

"Yes."

The next second, a pain that could not be described in words hit my internal organs.

In a flash, it was daybreak.

He was sweating profusely and had been burning all night. Could "Growing Golden Body in Fire" be the creation of some pervert who likes to abuse himself?
【正在偿还中：《火里种金身·种火篇》——心火种0/1、肝火种0/1、脾火种0/1、肺火种0/1、肾火种0/1。】

“Spark.”

In simple terms, the flames in the five internal organs need to be transformed into fire and kept burning continuously, rather than the flames "extinguishing" and then needing rest and time to make them burn again.

These five kinds of fire can burn at all times, thereby tempering the internal organs at all times, and can even burn spiritual energy to make its quality higher.

Of course, it wouldn't take too long for the strength to double at first. Once the five internal organs became stronger and the quality of the spiritual energy became higher, the speed of both would slow down.

Although it will slow down, it can accompany the practitioner throughout his life, burning and tempering until the end of life. Even if the physical body dies, the five fire seeds can still be preserved and passed on to future generations.

Moreover, if the descendants practice "Golden Body in Fire" and use five fire seeds, they can reach the level of their ancestors in one leap and inherit their ancestors' progress. "!"

He Sheng felt terrified about this.

Suppose, suppose there is a family that has been passed down for thousands of years, and has been practicing "Growing Golden Body in Fire". And then passed it down from generation to generation, wouldn't it be able to stand firm?
There is no shortage of high-end combat power in the family. Moreover, each generation is stronger than the previous one. Even if the strengthening speed is slow, there will be progress after a long time.

“Wait a minute, some of these strange flames, could they be the result of someone practicing some special skills and passing them down after their death?” The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed to him.

Otherwise, where did the Gao family get the Xuanyin Water Flame?

Then, he shifted his attention to the Xuanyin Water Flame seed in the container.

Just give it a try and you’ll know, right?
You said you can’t explain to the Gao family?

What do I have to explain?
If you want to explain, put on a dragon robe and talk to me first.

Next, without any hesitation, he reached out and grabbed the Xuanyin Water Flame in the container. The flame did not hurt her palm. Don't forget that now she is in the perfect state of internal organs, and the state of the five internal organs of the body is that the five fires are burning fiercely. The "Melting Gold Chapter" is perfect.

Grab it, swallow it in one gulp, and refine it in an instant.

It wasn't as fast as refining it in an instant, but it was just as cool as swallowing a piece of ice, and the whole person felt indescribably comfortable. How great would it be if "Fire Planting Chapter" could be like this?
It took a whole morning to refine the fire.

【正在偿还中：《火里种金身·种火篇》——心火种0/1、肝火种0/1、脾火种0/1、肺火种0/1、肾火种1/1。】

"Comfortable~~~"

He lay on the bed, feeling so relaxed like never before.

"what?"

Something is wrong. Something is very wrong.

He felt that his strength, the kidneys among the five internal organs, and the spiritual energy in his dantian had all soared up a lot. The strength of his kidneys far exceeded that of the other four organs. The quality of his spiritual energy was about six times that before he refined the Xuanyin Water Flame Seed.

"!"

As expected, the Gao family's ancestors practiced the "Golden Body in Fire". It seems that the fire of the Xuanyin Water Flame has been passed down for several generations.

So does this mean that the Gao family actually has four other sparks?

At that moment, his eyes had never been so bright and shining.

So, he reached out and gently pulled the delicate rope beside the bed, and soon the butler's voice sounded at the bedroom door.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

"Write an invitation and tell them that I want to host a banquet for the head of the Gao family."

"what???"

No, sir, what are you thinking!
We just raided someone's house yesterday and they said they'd like to host a banquet the next day. Can you come?

Can come!

Master Gao of the Gao family, also known as Gao Tongpan, took a bath, changed his clothes, and arrived at the He Mansion in a carriage almost immediately after receiving the invitation.

At the banquet, there were only two people toasting each other.

People who don't know the situation would think that the two of them have a very good relationship. But they couldn't tell that Gao Tongpan's house was ransacked by He yesterday.

"Master Gao, I have something I want to ask you."

"You say."

Damn, how can someone entertain guests wearing a dragon robe?
To put it bluntly, it is to use power to suppress others.

The head of the Gao family was Tongpan, a sixth-rank official.

Don't think he is a small official. The duty of the Tongpan is to assist the prefect in handling government affairs and to supervise the function. It is equivalent to a deputy prefectural official, which is really a big position.

Just imagine that the second-in-command of Shanzhou has to serve as a subordinate in the home of the right thousand-household officer of Qianhu Suo. How depressing.

"Your ancestors practiced martial arts, right?"

"I don't know. He said he had practiced it, but unfortunately his family fell into poverty several times."

The two of them kept asking and answering each other like this for the entire afternoon.

When Pan Gao left drunk, He Sheng had roughly figured out the details of the Gao family.

Gao's ancestors were indeed practitioners in their early years, but the method they practiced is unclear. Because the family fell into poverty several times, one of the ancestors was an idle prodigal.

In order to enjoy himself, eat, drink and have fun, the ancestor sold the old Gao family's skills. When the money was gone, he sold the fire passed down from his ancestors one by one.

That's it. If there hadn't been an old servant who never left him and managed to preserve the fire of the Xuanyin Water Flame, there would not be the current Gao Tongpan.

The process of the Gao family's resurgence was very simple. One of the steps in forging weapons required quenching, which was used to increase the hardness of the weapons and eliminate impurities at the same time.

However, an ancestor of the Gao family who was an apprentice in a blacksmith shop discovered that if the quenching water, oil, salt water and animal fats were replaced with Xuanyin water flames, the hardness and quality would be greatly improved.

As a result, the Gao family became rich. They gradually started to buy land and changed from being a blacksmith to a farmer and a scholar. After several generations of hard work, they gradually became a magistrate!

It can be said that the Xuanyin Water Flame Fire Seed was once the foundation and great contributor of the Gao family.

As for why I said once, it was because the craftsman supervisor of the Ancient Fish Country found a more cost-effective quenching method, which was much better than the Xuanyin Water Flame.

In this way, the fire was enshrined in the ancestral hall, completely losing its practical significance and becoming a symbol.

Gao Tongpan at the banquet was very open-minded about the fact that the Xuanyin Water Flame fire could not be retrieved.

What can I do if I am not open-minded?

The red dragon robe kept flashing in his eyes during the meal.

Besides, Gao Tongpan is not a man without vision.

There are more than thirty states in Guyu Country, and there are only more than thirty Tongpans in total. How could he be a fool to be one of them? He didn't send a gift yesterday, but he needed to maintain a united front with his superior, the prefect.

Last night, he heard that this Right Captain did not even let the prefect go and still had his property confiscated.

In addition, the servants and maids in the He Mansion were more professional than the servants in the prefect's house. The difference was completely one in heaven and one in hell. He even saw a few male servants without beards and who looked a bit effeminate. They were obviously eunuchs!
Brother, a Right Thousand Household can command eunuchs, plus the professionalism of the other servants. It is certain that this group of people came from the palace.

Grandma, he wears a dragon robe, his mansion is far beyond the standard of his official position, and he also employs palace maids, nannies, and eunuchs. If you say that the He surname is a prince who has fallen into the common people, he will believe it.

if not?

Even more terrifying!
Why can a right captain enjoy the treatment that only princes can enjoy?
Thinking hard!
The Emperor must have trust and favor for this person to be able to do this.

Can't be bothered, can't be bothered.

Not to mention that the fire of the Xuanyin Water Flame is just a symbol to the Gao family. Even if it is still very useful, he dare not take it back.

On the third day, after a night's rest, He Sheng got up and went straight to the Qianhu Suo treasury.
