Chunqiu Zong's shield

Riding on Sixiang's back, Hua Youque's speed is quite fast. After all, Sixiang is not comparable to ordinary mules and horses. It is an intelligent monster. Only an hour later, a magnificent and huge city appeared in the out of sight.

Immortal City!
The city established and controlled by Shengxianzong.

There are people coming and going inside and outside the city gate, and it is extremely lively.

Here, it used to be a very small village. Since Shengxianzong established a sect here, due to its excellent geographical location, it has gradually developed under the protection and support of Shengxianzong. With the growth of Xianzong, the scale of Shengxian City is also getting bigger and bigger. After Shengxianzong became the top ten sects in Penglai Prefecture, Shengxian City has become the second largest super city in Penglai Prefecture, second only to Penglai Prefecture Under Yunxian City of Yunxianzong, the most powerful sect.

After being alert and looking for someone to find out the location, one person and one beast soon came to the largest Lingbao firm in Shengxian City.

Hua Youque was surprised that there was an introduction and structural diagram of Lingbao Trading Company on the door wall.

Isn't the structural diagram a secret? What does Lingbao Trading Company mean by doing this?

Lingbao Commercial Bank is a super large cluster of buildings, covering an area of ​​nearly one hundred mu. Before entering it, one can feel the lively and full of style.

If you enter the facade, all kinds of goods are really dazzling, which makes people dizzy in an instant. Countless figures shuttle among them, giving people a dreamlike feeling. If there are any flowers missing, it will definitely make him feel Back to the illusion in the dream of Hongmeng.

It's not like you can't bring it in, but there is a special place for storing mounts. This is comparable to that mysterious blue planet world. It is really an extremely advanced and humanized setting!
After depositing the fourth master, I handed it over to the special mount handling personnel, and asked them to lead and deposit it in the mount area. Only then did Hua Youque walk in, and arrived at the information desk in a short while.

"Beauty, may I ask, are there any pills such as Xuanyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill, Juqi Powder and other things for sale here?"

The waiter at the service desk was a cute girl about his age, she seemed to be quiet, and after hearing his inquiry, she immediately showed a smile of great joy: "Of course there are, there are all kinds, However, there are ordinary grades of medicinal properties and pure grades of eye essence, it depends on which one you want to buy, Your Excellency?"

"Oh, so particular, what's the difference between them?"

"Difference?" The girl showed a bit of stunned, apparently not understanding why Hua Youque didn't even know about these things. You must know that after stepping into the path of cultivating immortals, low-level pills must be thoroughly understood, even those talents This is especially true for the peerless geniuses.

"Take Juling Powder as an example. Ordinary-grade Qi-gathering powder is refined by apprentices who have just learned alchemy. , those who need to take it can purify it again. And the pure grade is refined by a real alchemist. It has pure spiritual power, strong medicinal properties, sufficient medicinal power, and very few impurities. The user does not need to purify. It can be taken immediately, and it is easier to absorb, but the price is higher than ordinary grade!"

The girl's thin lips twitched, and she explained in a soft voice.

Hua Youque was stunned: "I see, what are the prices?"

"A pack of Julingsan at the ordinary level costs about two low-grade spirit stones, and 20 yuan at the pure level." The girl looked at the flowers and said patiently.

In Xuanjie Continent, there are not only sects of various levels, but also god dynasties and kingdoms. The sites and cities are not small, but most of them are attached to powerful sects, and there are not many who can rely on their own strength to become gods and kingdoms of cultivating immortals. .

Therefore, the currency circulating in the mysterious world must be mainly spirit stones, and immortals disdain to use secular money such as gold and silver.

Spiritual stones can be divided into top-grade, top-grade, middle-grade, and low-grade. A top-grade spiritual stone is priceless, and almost no one will sell the top-grade spiritual stone in their hands, so it cannot be valued.

A top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 100 yuan of middle-grade spirit stones, and a middle-grade spirit stone can also be exchanged for 100 yuan of low-grade spirit stones, but a high-grade spirit stone cannot be exchanged for 1 yuan of low-grade spirit stones. 2 yuan!
This is because there are too many impurities in a low-grade spirit stone, and it is too slow for the cultivator to absorb spiritual power from it, and the value is too low.

Its utility leads to an unavoidable difference in its value from the exchange rate.

"The price is not expensive!" Hua Youyou nodded.

He used the price in the grand dream as a reference. In the dream, he had too many spirit stones to spend, so he made such a judgment.

However, it may also be because the level of the elixir is too low. A pack of Jingchun Qi Gathering Powder costs less than 100 yuan for low-grade spirit stones, which is indeed not expensive.

"Buy me ten pure ones!" Hua Youque took out five taels of silver and handed it over.

Although I have never been out, I still have some broken silver, otherwise, I would not have come here directly. It was all given by the "cheap brother" ten years ago, but I have been staying in the thatched cottage in the forbidden area, and I haven't spent much.

After handing over the money, Hua Youque took a look at the jade vase handed over by the girl, and sure enough there were ten pills lying flat, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance, taking this might break his current situation, Successfully cultivated immortals!
"Young master, if you want to practice, we have a quiet room for rent, one hour, 10 Wen." Seeing his excitement, the girl said politely.

"Rent one!"

Without much hesitation, Hua Youque led the girl to a small room, about seven or eight square meters, very quiet.

Sitting on the straw mat in the middle, he poured out all ten pills.

Put it under your nose and sniff.

"Dried leaf grass is half a coin, wood fragrance is one coin, Chen Liumu is one-fifth, imperial tomb incense is one-sixth..."

Close your eyes and mutter to yourself.

He has systematically studied the identification of medicinal materials. No matter what, as long as it is composed of drugs, he can accurately distinguish all the ingredients and their proportions with a sniff.

Chopping firewood to practice eyes, and using nose to distinguish medicine, in order to train this ability and teach him the residual idea of ​​distinguishing medicine, countless difficulties were set up, and he also spent countless efforts to succeed.

When I was in the thatched hut in the forbidden area, I felt that this ability was useless, but now it is used to distinguish the ingredients of the elixir, and it is not bad.

"The ratio seems to be a bit problematic. The dry leaves are warm and the woody flowers are hot. The combination of the two can easily cause deviations in the properties of the medicine. At this time, if you use one-third of the money to neutralize the fire moss, the effect will be better. Unfortunately, Not only was this thing useless, but Huanglingxiang was used... The medicinal properties of this stuff are too messy, although it also has a neutralizing effect, it greatly weakens the medicinal properties of the first two medicinal materials..."

Hua Youque frowned, a little puzzled.

The so-called identification of medicines should be in alchemy profession, the lowest level, even an apprentice can't compare, he can detect something wrong with the medicine, how could a true alchemist not detect it?

"It must be overthinking. Practitioners who can make alchemy are very powerful. It is impossible for an ordinary person like me to be inferior!"

Putting aside the messy thoughts, with a light pinch, a pill was put into the mouth.

Although these medicines gave him the feeling that they were mixed in a mess and of poor quality, but since they were refined by practitioners, they should be effective.

Just have to try it!

call!
The elixir melted into her throat, and Hua Youque immediately felt a warm current in her abdominal cavity, which exploded.

"it works……"

As soon as Hua Youque's eyes lit up, Hua Youque was trying to control the heat flow in his dantian according to the method recorded in the exercises, when he felt his whole body swell, and the previously closed acupuncture points opened at the same time.

Puff puff!
As if eating something disgusting, the aura in the body was squeezed into balls of air flow, which were ejected from the acupuncture points in an instant, and the medicinal power disappeared.

"..."

Hua Youque shook her face.

If I eat it in my stomach, I will also expel it... I don't want to play like this!
Is it so difficult to practice?
Full of depression, he took all the remaining nine pills.

Soon, Hua Youque was even more frustrated.

Same as the first one, the spiritual power contained in these pills was excreted immediately after entering the body, some went through the acupoints, and some even went to the middle and lower part of the body, which was extremely embarrassing.

His body is like a broken sack, the aura can't get in, and it will leave immediately when it comes in, it seems that he doesn't want to stay for a second longer.

Is it really not suitable for cultivation?

No... It should be because the elixir is not pure enough.

Because of the spiritual energy that I took just now, although the body is also very repulsive, it obviously does not reject the free spiritual energy very much.

Perhaps, if one finds a more pure elixir, one can really break through the shackles and practice.

Taking a deep breath, he left the quiet room, and found the girl at the front desk again: "Is there a more pure and higher quality Qi Gathering Pill?"

"Your Excellency, you are so fast... this..." The girl was astonished when she saw Hua Youque, she nodded, and said, "Of course, there are lower-level pills with better quality than pure ones." , it was refined by alchemists with a higher level of alchemy, but the quantity is not large, so the price is also high. For example, the Huntian Pill costs 100 yuan for a low-grade spirit stone, and this kind of pill There are requirements for the sale of medicines, at least ten pieces are sold."

Girl, you have a beautiful face, why do you just talk nonsense, who the hell is "so fast", why don't you come and try it, young master is fast or not, young master, I don't know how long I am...

"Ten pieces are on sale, one low-grade spirit stone costs 100 yuan, you grab it..."

After hearing this, Hua Youque couldn't help but the corners of her mouth started to twitch, and in her heart she cursed the girl in front of her for talking nonsense, and then complained that her pills were too expensive.

To this, the girl just smiled politely.

What kind of bullshit elixir, it's really expensive, and I'm afraid it's another elixir with messy properties.

140 pieces of low-grade spirit stones, 100 yuan has already been spent, and 40 yuan of low-grade spirit stones are left. I can't afford a single piece of earthen pill, and ten pieces are on sale. It's a robbery, it's too outrageous.

"Do you want to..." Just as Hua Youque was considering whether to buy the Huntian Pill, the lovely girl spoke again.

"Young master, for this level of medicine, not only is it pure, but the spiritual energy reserve in the pill is far superior to that of ordinary medicines, and there is also spiritual essence after the spiritual energy has been transformed into liquid in the medicine pill. Many practitioners, They are often bought and used at the critical moment of breakthrough, so no matter how you say it, Huntian Pill is a elixir with excellent value for money."

The girl looked at Hua Youque and continued to explain: "My lord, besides, those who can refine this kind of elixir are almost all alchemists with considerable talent, uh, genius alchemists, otherwise who would sacrifice a lot of cultivation Time to go to alchemy, this kind of alchemist in Shengxian City is usually not found a few, only when there are events like grand events, there will be less than two hands of such talented alchemists appear, so alchemy It is only natural that the price of medicine is higher, so my lord, do you want to buy it?"

"Uh... can I not buy it? If you have a life, you have a spirit stone. If you lose your life, what is a spirit stone..." Hua Youque muttered vaguely.

He took out the four cloth bags containing spirit stones on his body, counted them, and there were only 40 yuan of low-grade spirit stones, and then, like an elderly grandfather, he took out half a middle-grade spirit stone with shaking hands , and then said with a little embarrassment: "Beauty, there are not enough spirit stones, can you make them cheaper, or sell me a few less!"

The girl was dumbfounded, 40 yuan, half a medium-grade spirit stone, even if I sell you one, your spirit stone is not enough for him, so she shook her head and said: "Young master, I am really sorry, this is the rule set by the boss, I Just a waiter, except for quoting and collecting money, there is nothing he can do... ".

"Oh, like this, then... this... Is there any way to quickly earn spirit stones here?" Hua Youque blushed, and asked in a low voice in desperation.

If you go back to get the spirit stone, let alone whether you can get it, even if you can get the spirit stone, you still have to borrow it from the elder Mobeifeng and others, or squeeze it from the disciples and grandchildren of Wu Yaqian, Huo Da, and Renyi. , but as the only ancestor of the sect, and pretending to be a "peerless master", borrowing spirit stones and extracting the hard-earned money of his disciples and grandchildren... It is really embarrassing and shameful.

More importantly, it is not easy to go down the mountain once. It takes three to five hours to go back and forth. By then, it will be dark and it will be too dangerous outside.

Especially in the world of cultivating immortals, traveling in the dark...it is difficult to guarantee one's own safety.

Under such circumstances, instead of wasting time on the road, it is better to find a way to be self-reliant and earn spirit stones on the spot. The thatched cottage in the forbidden area has learned 18 skills, although most of them have not been tested in practice, and at the same time, most of them None of them can be on the stage, but there are still many other skills that can be used, such as: setting up a stall, distinguishing medicine, calculating, etc., just find a place to set up a stall, and use his ability to earn some pocket money Money shouldn't be too difficult.

"Is this... a quick way to make money... really not?"

If so, how could this girl spend so much time talking to you here!

The girl was speechless and shook her head helplessly.

The girl has already begun to despise her in her heart. If she knew how to earn spirit stones quickly, she would have quit working here long ago. But as a service worker, she could only hold back her speechlessness at this moment, and then said: "Young Master, you want to By the way, this is the largest trading firm in Shengxian City, Lingbao Trading Firm. The best way to make money in the trading firm is naturally to sell things. If you have any unused items on your body, you can also sell them, and you should be able to get them together soon. Come out with some spirit stones!"

"I really want to boo you, beauty! What you said is absolutely right!" After hearing this, Hua Youque suddenly realized.

Although he doesn't care about the status of the "old ancestor" of Shengxianzong, but if he really wants to show his face in the street, if it gets out, his reputation will be ruined. Not only the reputation of Shengxianzong will be severely hit, but also his own The image of a "peerless master" in disguise is not very good. It would be best if he could sell things to solve the shortage of spirit stones.

During the 110 years of the thatched cottage in the forbidden area, during the period of ten years of study, in order to prove the correctness of the theory, he practiced non-stop, and made a lot of good things. Today, he came here randomly, but he brought too much. not enough.

After a pause, he flipped his right wrist, and a round palm-sized box appeared in his palm.

"Girl, look at this box, how many spirit stones can you sell?"

Full of doubts, the girl looked over, blinked quickly, and saw that the workmanship of the round box was very good, and the pattern painted on it was just average, and the four words "everything in purple and red" were well engraved... ... But what is inside, she has a look of uncertainty: "This is...?"

"It's all purple and red, of course it's rouge!" Hua Youque nodded with the corners of his mouth upturned.

He just learned how to cultivate it, and made it with discarded ore beside the thatched hut in the forbidden area and some medicinal herb petals in the flower garden. Strictly speaking, there is not much technical content, and it is very ordinary. There is no woman around him to try it out, so I don’t know how it works. Sample.

But the box of rouge he made can not only moisturize the skin, but also beautify the skin. Secondly, it can not only be used as the so-called "lipstick" on the blue planet, but also a skin care product.When skin care products are used, they can be applied on the face, and the color can change with the color of the skin...

To him, this is nothing, but the minerals in it are fused with the petals and have been tempered. Whoever uses it will know its effect, and it should be worth ten high-grade spirit stones!
"Master, you mean to sell this... rouge?" Hearing the confirmation from the other party, the girl was speechless. You are a poor boy, and you still sell rouge. Isn't rouge all made of paper, and what you are is rouge.

The more you think about it, the angrier you become. You seem to be well-dressed and very polite in your conversation. I thought you would have some treasure, but I never even dreamed of it. Did you take out such a thing to fool people? ,you……

Medicinal ingredients, magic tools, prescriptions, calligraphy and paintings, treasure maps, exercise books and jade slips, etc., are only worth a few dollars. A box of messy things, are you serious?

Damn it, play with me!
Resisting the trembling veins on her forehead, the girl always maintained the politeness that a waiter should have: "My lord, I can help you put your things in the store in the firm, but whether they can be sold, and whether they can How many spirit stones to sell, I don't know this!"

"Affiliation? That's good... But can I overdraw a thousand low-grade spirit stones first, and take away ten Huntian pills?" Hua Youque was overjoyed, and asked cautiously.

Affiliate!That's great, Lingbao Trading Company is too humane, although no one knows that it will take a few days to sell the things that are anchored here, but the pills cannot be delayed, and time does not allow it!

"Master, this..." The girl looked down at the object in front of her.

The box is of an alloy property, and the contents inside seem to have mineral components. It is hard to tell what kind of rouge it is, but just looking at the forging of the box, the special lines on the surface are obviously the method of "spinning". The only flaw is that the level of painting is a bit low, but the four characters "everything in purple and red" also make up for the lack of poor painting. These four characters exude an unknown charm. Just judging from the appearance of the round box, It can be sold for about 100 yuan, but it is not a magic weapon, so the value is naturally not high, unless it is bought by someone who likes it.

Of course, it's hard to say whether it can be sold or not, it can only depend on luck.

After all, those who like to use rouge are mostly powerful, or female cultivators of the Hehuan Sect. Ordinary female cultivators don't have the extra money to buy such things, let alone a box that looks weird The so-called rouge inside.

What should I do, I finally made an order, could I just miss it like this, but if I keep it, his things really make people feel uncertain, and he doesn't give up at night, it's really...

After hesitating for a long time, the girl finally gritted her teeth and said, "I can give you an overdraft of 160 low-grade spirit stones first, but this box of rouge can only be held for two days, and within two days, it cannot be sold or not sold." If the price reaches 160 low-grade spirit stones, then you not only need to make up for the spirit stones you paid, but also pay interest, one low-grade spirit stone a day, otherwise the boss will deduct my meager income."

"It's a deal. As for what you said, that's natural!" Hua Youque breathed a sigh of relief and assured her.

No matter where it is, it is very difficult for disadvantaged groups. The other party is a waiter after all. If the money cannot be sold or is really not worth the overdraft, it would be embarrassing to let the other party pay in advance and the spending of spirit stones will not produce benefits, and it is even more impossible to do so Do it, cheat others.

After the discussion, the rest of the matter was simple. I handed over the 40 yuan low-grade spirit stone and the box of "Colorful Purples and Reds". After a short time, the girl handed over a blue jade bottle.

Gently uncorking the bottle, Hua Youque saw the elixir inside, which was turquoise in color, and each one contained strong spiritual energy, which was more than ten times stronger than the ones he had taken before.

Whether it is the selection and proportion of medicinal materials, as well as the fire and fire control used in alchemy, they are several grades stronger than the Jingchun grade Xuanyuan Dan. Although some problems still exist, the medicinal properties are much more reasonable, and the medicinal power will inevitably be stronger. A lot, and the degree of harm to the body has also been reduced a lot.

He took a breath while closing his eyes, and the pores that were closed after being thinned were quietly and slowly opening, as if they were not as cold and human as before.

"Beauty, thank you for your support, thank you another day..."

Glancing at the girl, his eyes lit up, and he looked out of the window, seeing that it was getting late, Hua Youque turned and walked out.

It's time to go back, it's too dangerous to spend the night outside, let's go back and try again!

Hua Youque hummed a song, and went to get the fourth master of Sixiang... On the way back, there was a joyous atmosphere, "Two tigers love to dance, hey, the little rabbit obediently pulls the carrots, oh, I'm learning to walk with the little duck ...Little Snail, blowing Didi, hey, I'm so fat when I go to Seagull... Quickly learn the Flying Cloud Art..."

Not long after he left, a girl with a round face came to the service desk, looked down at the things on the desk, and sneered, "Yufeng, you received a broken box for 160 low-grade spirit stones? Your brain is flooded, is something wrong?"

The girl just now bit her lip, blushed involuntarily, and said softly in a voice that she was not sure about: "I don't know if the thing is good or bad, and besides, that young man is not a person who will renege on his debts. If it is sold, it should be more than 160 low-grade spirit stones. If it is really not sold, he should make up for all the 160 low-grade spirit stones and interest..."

Lan Yufei, who has only been here for less than a month, is considered a pure rookie in the Lingbao Firm. 160 low-grade Lingshi is her half-year income.

"You...make it up?" The round-faced girl shook her head, and said with sympathy: "Yufeng, why are you so stupid, you believe what others say? That guy is obviously a liar! If you don't believe me, I will Let me ask you, who is a decent person who would carry rouge with him, and he is not a bitch?"

"..." Lan Yufei was stunned for a moment.

Yes, there are storage bags or storage rings, and there must be other treasures, but he took out a box of so-called rouge... Obviously he didn't take me seriously.

It's over!It seems that I have really been fooled...

"Yufeng, think about it carefully. In this line of work, you can't judge people so much. You, you can gain wisdom by eating a ditch. Fortunately, it is 160 low-grade spirit stones, not 160 middle-grade spirit stones. I'm going to stay here for the rest of my life!" the round-faced girl snorted.

"Well, I see!" Lan Yufei nodded, her almond eyes were already flushed.

Her daily fixed income is one piece of low-grade spirit stone, and her monthly salary is 30 yuan of low-grade spirit stone, which is 180 yuan of low-grade spirit stone and 160 yuan of low-grade spirit stone in half a year, which is almost half a year's salary. If she loses him, she will be at a big loss!
If you lose money, you will lose money, and you will gain a lot of wisdom if you suffer from it. Forget it, just pay attention to it next time.

Although Lan Yufeng was depressed, after thinking about it, he hung the box of "colorful" rouge on the booth.

If you can sell it, you can reduce some losses, if you can reduce it, let's reduce it, although... there is no hope.

……

"What's going on, why is there no movement, the people inside won't leave!"

Hiding in the green belt, looking at the extremely quiet mansion in front of him, Huang Tianzhong frowned and said in doubt.

He and Liu Xiaogen have been waiting here for nearly four or five hours, but found nothing, not even a slight sound. Could it be that the "master" who taught Yang Tianling's magic skills has quietly left?
"Wait a little longer, Junior Brother Jie, if we really can't wait, let's sneak in and take a look!"

After hesitating for a while, Liu Xiaogen whispered.

His face was full of helplessness, and he was anxious again. Huang Tianzhong was about to continue talking, to relieve the exhaustion caused by being unable to move for a long time in the green belt, when his pupils shrank suddenly: "Look, Senior Brother Batian! It seems that something has come out Yes, look..."

Liu Xiaogen hurriedly looked along, and sure enough, when he saw the mouth of the sewer connected to the cesspool, a head came out slowly, judging from its size and appearance, it was a small child with dark body, torn clothes, and thorns all over his body. Nasal bad taste.

The boy struggled to get out, and immediately showed excitement. He didn't notice the pungent and unpleasant smell emanating from his body, but turned his head to look at the courtyard, and then he clenched his teeth, and his voice was cold and Teng Teng murderously said: "I, Murong Changhen, the demon lord of Gusu, swear, I will definitely... I will kill you, and everyone in the Ascension Immortal Sect, all of them will be killed, no one will be left, no one will be left!"

During the speech, streaks of devilish energy overflowed from his body uncontrollably, as if matching his words.

"No, it's the demon cultivator!"

Looking at it, Liu Xiaogen and Huang Tianzhong were both startled, their faces turned pale instantly, and their hearts trembled.

Sure enough, in this courtyard hidden in the dense forest, there actually lived a demon cultivator, and he kept saying that he wanted to kill everyone in the Ascension Immortal Sect...

Damn it, it's really terrible!
"Brother Batian, what shall we do?"

Huang Tianzhong almost peed in fright, his body was shaking non-stop.

"Let's go! This kind of extremely powerful big devil, the two of us are definitely not his opponents. Before he finds out, we should go back to the sect quietly and report to the elder hall as soon as possible!"

Liu Xiaogen's voice trembled slightly through sound transmission.

"Yes, Senior Brother Batian, we can only do this..."

Huang Tianzhong nodded cautiously.

They are just two disciples in the Qi refining period. Facing such a powerful demon cultivator with such a powerful breath, they must not be able to fight against it.

Holding their breath, the two of them backed away slowly. It didn't take long, and they left the Qingyaju mansion. They were relieved when they saw that their escaping action did not attract the attention of the dirty and smelly demon cultivator.

"Quick... let's go!"

The two hurried back.

With the evidence in hand, Yang Tianling could already be identified.

Yang Tianling acted so boldly that he dared to collude with the powerful monsters. The strong monsters were really vicious, and they wanted to destroy the Ascending Immortal Sect and kill all the immortal cultivators of the Ascending Immortal Sect... No matter what, it was appalling, and they could not afford it.

……
