Chapter 113 Contents of the Jade Slip

Xu Qing is not stingy with the spiritual stones needed for practice, but lives frugally.

Even if there was a big harvest, it was just three extra eggs for breakfast.

Therefore, for the wanted criminals in the main city, he naturally knows quite a lot of details. Even though the wanted criminals' jade slips will be updated every once in a while, he will carefully remember them in his heart.

After all, no matter how few spirit stones are, they are still spirit stones, and if you are lucky, you can get more items from the opponent's storage bag.

So at this moment, he recognized the identity of the corpse in front of him at a glance. The other party came from a certain pirate organization in the sea, and it looked like it was worth fifteen spirit stones.

Such a sum of spirit stones is nothing to Xu Qing today, but it can be imagined that it is a great fortune to the dumb boy.

Such wealth, the other party actually gave it to him directly...

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction where the mute boy was leaving.

Naturally, he could see that the other party was here to wait for him specifically for... It seemed to be to send this wanted criminal.

"Fraud?" Xu Qing murmured, ignoring the wanted criminal at his feet, and walked into the distance, and soon his figure disappeared on the street.

After his figure disappeared, the corpse of the wanted criminal left on the ground attracted the attention of passers-by, and most of them avoided it. However, there were still some disciples whose eyes flickered after seeing the corpse, and they were about to approach after observing the corpse.

But the moment they approached, a thin but nimble figure like a wild dog rushed from the alley to the side of the corpse.

Crouching there, his eyes were ferocious, as if he was protecting food, and he looked ferociously at the people who were about to approach.

His teeth seemed to have been ground, unlike normal people, when he opened his mouth at this moment, his jagged teeth exuded a murderous intent, causing the monks walking around to stop.

After some confrontation, the surrounding disciples swept the traces of being bitten to death on the corpse, and chose to retreat one by one. Only the dumb boy squatted beside the corpse in a daze, with a rare daze and frustration in his expression.

Time passed like this, and dusk soon fell, and the young man next to the corpse stayed there until the night fell. Then he silently grabbed the corpse and dragged it into the alley, and returned to the residence along the corner.

The place where he lives is not Fazhou, but a simple hut.

The monthly fee here is much less than the berth. At this moment, he approached cautiously. Instead of going through the door, he went around and pushed a blocked brick from the back wall, and got in.

In the hut, he breathed a sigh of relief, and squatted silently in the corner in the dark, so that his eyes could see the window and the door at the same time. After a long while in a daze, he looked down at the wanted criminal's body, and his expression became more depressed .

After a long time, he hesitated and touched the wanted criminal.

It seemed that before this, he hadn't checked the leather bag of the wanted criminal, but now he took it, and after opening it, his eyes revealed surprise, and he actually took out three spirit stones.

He immediately held it, looked around vigilantly, and put away the spirit stone after confirming that it was all right, and then carefully counted his accumulation, a total of 77 yuan.

After counting, he squatted there, his expression became depressed again, and finally took out a rough stone, opened his mouth and began to grind his teeth to make them sharper.

It's just that now he has only the third layer of condensed gas, and he can't detect it at all. At this moment, outside his hut, Xu Qing is standing there, watching every move of the dumb boy coldly.

Xu Qing's character is vigilant and cautious. Even if the opponent's cultivation base is not as good as his own, he is still on guard.

As for the daytime affairs, in his opinion, there are only two situations, one is to really give a gift to himself, and the other is to have some other purpose.

In this cruel and chaotic world, anything could happen, so he would not ask for this gift, but hid it after leaving, secretly observing and deciding whether to make a move.

"Is it because he was afraid of me when we met a few days ago, so he came to please me?" Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, looked at the young man in the house, pushed open the door, and walked in.

And the moment he walked in, the young man in the corner bared his teeth immediately, as if he was about to explode, but after seeing Xu Qing clearly, his body trembled violently, the fear in his eyes was so intense that he didn't dare to move.

"What did you see?" Xu Qing threw a jade slip, stood at the door, and spoke slowly.

The moonlight fell on him, casting his shadow into the house, very close to the little mute.

The little mute pressed his body tightly against the wall, and took the jade slip.

The team leader once asked him what he would never say, but at this moment, without any hesitation, he immediately imprinted what he wanted to say, and handed it to Xu Qing cautiously.

Xu Qing took the jade slip, and after the influx of spiritual energy swept it, his complexion changed in vain.

There was a cold light in his eyes, and after giving the little dumb a meaningful look, he took out eight spirit stones and threw them over, then turned and left.

77 plus fifteen plus eight equals one hundred, which is the amount that can be exchanged for a dharma boat.

When he walked far away, Xu Qing's right hand was still tightly grasping the jade slip, and as he returned to the berth, the moment he stepped into the Fazhou, his right hand squeezed suddenly, and the jade slip turned into flying ashes.

Then he walked into the cabin with a blank face, closed his eyes and meditated, and began to practice.

The night passed.

In the early morning of the next day, Xu Qing went to Zhang San's place as usual, and sent the array crossbow he obtained from the Vajra Sect. Under Zhang San's refinement, the array crossbow was placed on his dharma boat and became a Second only to one of the killers of divinity.

"This thing is a treasure. Xu Qing, your Dharma boat, as long as you get a foundation building power source, you can be promoted from a boat to a Dharma boat." Before Xu Qing left, Zhang San smiled and said, then swept left and right, whispering Outgoing words.

"Xu Qing, if you want to go or not, it should be a few days. I'm going to make a vote. If you go too, we can join hands."

"I will go." Xu Qing nodded.

Zhang San laughed and didn't say much.

Xu Qing clasped his fists and left. Walking at the port, he noticed that the shops of each peak were filled with disciples from the Seventh Peak buying items, and there were many more people than usual.

At the same time, there were more Fazhou returning to the harbor than before, and he even saw several strange faces on the way, but the fluctuations in any one's cultivation base were at least eight or nine layers of condensation.

There are even a few who have reached Dzogchen just like him...

Obviously, most of these disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes either chose to practice in seclusion, or they had been wandering in the sea all the time, and now they heard that Dabi had rushed back.

As for the evil spirit on them, Xu Qing could clearly feel the coldness that came from his bones at a glance.

At the same time, he also heard that the Lingbei tribe in Xishan Islands seemed to be extremely anxious during this period. While constantly asking for help from other alien tribes, they also sent envoys to Qixuetong for peace talks many times.

This reminded Xu Qing of what the captain said and his own guess.

"Then the real target is the mermaid tribe?" Xu Qing murmured. That night, a familiar visitor came outside his boat.

"Xu Qing, Xu Qing, you didn't tell me when you came back, you didn't treat me, Huang Yan, as a brother?" Outside the Fazhou, Huang Yan shouted loudly, with some displeasure in his expression.

Xu Qing heard the sound outside, walked out of the cabin and saw Huang Yan, with a smile on his face.

He has met many people since he was in Qixuetong, but there are only a few people who feel real to him, and Huang Yan is one of them.

"I came back to deal with some trivial matters." Xu Qing explained.

Huang Yan didn't mind either. He laughed and sat on the shore. Like the last time he came, he didn't choose to board the boat. After sitting down now, he spoke in a low voice.

"Xu Qing, I learned a big secret today!"

Hearing the word "secret", Xu Qing felt a little wary. He thought of the captain's secret worth a hundred spirit stones.

Before Xu Qing could speak, Huang Yan spoke out quickly with some show off.

"Do you think there is something wrong with the seventh peak this time? Although the goals and destinations were announced in advance in previous years, I always feel that this time is too deliberate. With the seventh peak's pee...I think this time the big competition The location must not be the Lingbei tribe, according to my analysis and investigation, I conclude that the target this time is the mermaid tribe!"

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed when he heard the words, and after glancing at Huang Yan's expression, this time he didn't need the other party's reminder, so he showed a surprised expression.

Seeing Xu Qing's expression, Huang Yan was immediately relieved and very proud.

"Haha, it's actually nothing. My senior sister told me these things. Now I have nothing to say to my senior sister."

"I started to investigate the information of Mermaid Island after I knew the news. When I knew you came back, I hurried over to share with you. How about it, I'm a brother." Huang Yan said, threw a jade slip to Xu Qing, and spoke again in a low voice.

"After I investigated, I was very surprised. The mermaid clan is too fat. There are four islands in their clan, namely Yimeiqi, Youzang Island, Kuying Island and Mier Island. Each island contains a lot of Treasures, after my intelligence investigation, among them, the most valuable ones, which few people know, are all summarized on this jade slip."

Xu Qing caught the jade slip, and began to check it with spiritual energy. Huang Yan, who was on the side, seemed to have memorized it, shaking his head and speaking.

"It took me a lot of effort to get this. Let me tell you that there is an armor on Namier Island called the Armor of Mier. It is hidden in the Miaer Volcano. It has been continuously forged by the Mermaid Clan for thousands of years. A magic weapon level armor, this thing is too valuable, but unfortunately we can't get it."

"There are also a lot of mermaid tears on Yimeiqi. This is comparable to a panacea, but compared to these, Yimeiqi still has a drop of Yimeiqi's tears, which is the most valuable thing. Yimeiqi is the ancestor of the mermaid clan His name, this tear is the last drop before his death, which is inlaid on the crown."

Speaking of which, Huang Yan took out two eggs, threw one to Xu Qing, took one and punctured it, and opened his mouth while sucking.

"As for Youcang Island, it is a cemetery, and there are countless treasures buried with it, but the most meaningful one is a feather. Do you know who that feather belongs to? It belongs to Yanhuang. Do you know who it is? But the king of the restricted area in the west of the Truth Mountain Range in Nanhuangzhou is also the king of Nanhuangzhou, why is it called Nanhuangzhou, you should know."

"The last is Kuying Island. That island is also amazing. It is said that there are many alchemy pools, and there should be a lot of foundation building pills stored there. The senior sister went there to snatch it. I guess this time it will definitely be vicious."

"These are nothing, there is a treasure worth 50 spirit stones on Kuying Island, called the spirit lamp!"

"This spirit lamp is a foundation-building sacred object of the mermaid clan, and it is placed in the foundation-building tower of the main city of Kuying Island."

"It's a special foundation-building place for mermaid monks, which is the same as the foundation-building place where our seven blood pupils have one hundred spirit stones per hour, but we heard that we rely on the blood of the gods to protect our disciples' foundation building, and Mermaids rely on this lamp."

"This kind of magic weapon that protects disciples' foundation building actually has different types in every big clan, but the effect of the mermaid clan's is actually mediocre, so those big clans don't like it."

"The reason why it is said to be worth 50 spirit stones is because the senior sister extorted 200 million spirit stones from the mermaid tribe after she went to snatch it away last time, and then the mermaid tribe bargained for 50 spirit stones and bought it back.

By the way, it is rumored that there are clues to the temple hidden in this spirit lamp, but no one has found it after so many years. The senior sister couldn't find it at the beginning, so she sold it back. The details are all in the jade slip. see. "

Xu Qing was a little silent when he heard this. He felt that he was still worrying about tens of thousands of spirit stones, but the other party was talking about millions of spirit stones.

This made him feel a little uncomfortable. After poking open the egg and taking a sip, he still couldn't suppress the thoughts rising in his heart and turned into a heartbeat.

After Huang Yan finished speaking, he began to chat about his affairs with his senior sister.

Basically, he was talking and Xu Qing was listening throughout the whole process. This way of getting along was very strange, but Huang Yan felt very comfortable.

Until it was very late, Huang Yan, who had finished drinking the eggs, patted his stomach and got up to leave. Before leaving, he burped and said in a low voice.

"Xu Qing, I know you probably won't, but I still want to remind you that this time, don't be stupid and try to fight for the first place. The identity of the core disciples is not important, and resources are the key in the big competition. knew."

"Actually, not many of you care about rankings. They are all rushing to make a fortune. In addition, let me tell you, we are the only ones who know about me. I treat you as a brother. Don't spread the word. We will go when the time comes." Whichever island, just go and get it, and send a fortune first!"

Xu Qing nodded.

Satisfied, Huang Yan patted his stomach and walked away, taking out the jade slips as he walked, and was sweet talking to his senior sister every day.

Watching Huangyan go away, Xu Qing sat on the deck and turned his head to look at the Forbidden Sea, his eyes fell in the distance.

At this moment, the waves came gently, causing the boat to shake slightly.

In this shaking, under the moonlight, his shadow fell on the board beside him, partly spread into the sea, and merged with the black sea water.

Xu Qing withdrew his gaze from a distance, swept across the shadow, his eyes flickered coldly, and a sentence in the jade slip given by the little mute came to his mind.

"It's sleeping..."

Time passed, and three days later in the morning, the identity tokens of all the Seventh Peak disciples in the entire Seven Blood Eyes vibrated at the same time, and a majestic voice inside it spread to the minds of all disciples.

"All the disciples participating in the big competition, within a quarter of an hour, gather at the central altar and line up, and the seventh peak big competition will start immediately!"
