The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 9 The wonderful use of the small tripod

After returning to his residence, Matthew began to pack his things.

In fact, he didn't have many things to sort out, and there were only so many things that were slightly valuable.

After packing a few sets of clothes, tying the wooden box and the gray cloth to his body, he took some dry food and went out.

Matthew was feeling a little upset now and had no idea what to do next.

After coming out of the city gate, Matthew walked aimlessly.

Unknowingly, he came to the valley of Xiaowang Mountain.

"Wang Xianshi shouldn't have guessed that I would hide here." Looking at the valley in front of him, Matthew suddenly laughed.

Anyway, I can't think of a place to go for the time being, so it's better to stay here for now. Maybe after a while Master Wang Xian won't find him and will forget about him.

With this thought in his mind, Matthew stepped into the valley.

After coming to the old man's grave and worshiping, Matthew began to look for a place to stay.

After searching around, Matthew found a suitable place inside.

There was a protruding rock above, with an indentation below, just enough to accommodate Matthew.

After moving in, Matthew took out all the things he brought and arranged them accordingly.

After eating some simple food, Matthew opened the wooden box.

He wanted to take out the Lotus Transformation Sword Art inside and study it.

Although my spiritual roots are very poor, I still have spiritual roots after all.

Matthew believes that no matter how weak his spiritual roots are, he will definitely gain something as long as he is willing to work hard.

The Lianhua Sword Technique is at the bottom, and Matthew needs to take out the other things on top first.

When he picked up the small purple cauldron, he was stunned.

I saw the marrow-cleansing pill lying in the mouth of the tripod.

Matthew remembered that Chen Hu suddenly knocked on the door and he did not put the Marrow Cleansing Pill back into the jade bottle in his haste.

Maybe the marrow-cleansing pill rolled into the small purple cauldron due to the shaking on his way here.

The purple cauldron can absorb items with spiritual energy, and Matthew had already tested it with spiritual stones before.

He was a little panicked now, fearing that the old man's hard-earned Marrow Cleansing Pill would also be absorbed by Xiaoding.

When Matthew looked carefully again, he found that the air mass inside the small cauldron seemed to be much thinner.

"No, this Marrow Cleansing Pill..." After Matthew took the Marrow Cleansing Pill out of the small cauldron, a look of disbelief appeared on his face.

He clearly remembered that the marrow-cleansing pill the old man gave him was milky white.

But at this moment, the one in his hand was pure white, and there was even a slight reflection on the surface.

"This... this is a middle-grade elixir!" Matthew had spent a few years in Baiyao Hall, and he was more or less knowledgeable. After identifying it, he exclaimed with his eyes widened.

Pills are also divided into grades. The worst ones are useless pills, which are not only weak in potency but also poisonous.

The second is, low grade, medium grade, top grade and the legendary best grade.

The easiest way to identify the four grades is to look at the color of the elixir surface.

Just like the Marrow Cleansing Pill on Matthew's hand, the lower grade is milky white, the middle grade becomes pure white, and the top grade is translucent. As for the top grade, no one knows.

In Wangxian City, a low-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill can be sold for about fifty spiritual stones, and the supply exceeds demand.

Due to the scarcity of the high-grade Marrow Cleansing Pills, the price is generally five or six times that of the low-grade pills. They are usually out of stock, and the actual selling price should be even higher.

Matthew looked at the medium-grade marrow-cleansing pill in his hand, and the smile on his face grew stronger.

"Could it be that the air mass in the small cauldron can improve the quality of the elixir?" Looking at the small cauldron again, Matthew's eyes became extremely hot.

It's a pity that he doesn't have any other elixirs on hand, otherwise he could try it again.

After sitting there and thinking for a while, Matthew put away the middle-grade marrow cleansing pill.

He now has more than a dozen spirit stones in his hand. If he wants to go further on his journey to immortality, the middle-grade marrow-cleansing pill cannot be taken for the time being.

He needs to use the middle-grade marrow cleansing pill in exchange for greater benefits.

Thinking of this, Matthew took out the remaining ten spiritual stones from the box and stuffed them into his clothes together with the medium-grade marrow cleansing pill.

Then he held the small tripod and came to the old man's tomb.

Under a nearby tree, a hole was dug and the small tripod was buried.

After confirming that the location would not be easily discovered, Matthew took the spirit stone and left the valley.

Although Wang Xianshi's incident forced him to leave Wangxian City.

But now that he knows the role of Xiaoding, Matthew will take the risk of entering the city again.

He needs to buy some elixirs and try them again.

After entering the city, Matthew first went to a grocery store and bought a bamboo hat.

Then I went to a tailor shop and bought a pair of rather loose clothes.

After putting on a disguise, Matthew was able to walk on the street with confidence.

There are dozens of shops selling elixirs in Wangxian City, and Matthew knows which one is most suitable.

Baodan Hall.

This is where Matthew is going this time.

This treasure pill hall has existed in the city for hundreds of years, and the price of the pills sold is a little lower than that of other shops.

The main reason is that Baodan Hall has always had its own habit of training alchemists.

Matthew and shopkeeper Chen came here once before to deliver goods.

I know that the shopkeeper here is honest and has a good reputation in the city.

After entering the Baodan Hall, Matthew saw the wooden signs hanging above.

The types and prices of the elixirs for sale are written on these wooden signs, so that people who come in can quickly know the price of the elixirs they want to buy.

"Four low-grade Bigu Pills and three low-grade Qi-Nourishing Pills." After looking at the sign above, Matthew walked to the counter and deliberately lowered his voice.

"Okay, there are five spiritual stones in total." The shopkeeper looked up at Matthew, who was wearing a bamboo hat, and said with a smile.

There are two spiritual stones for each Bigu Pill, and one spiritual stone for Nourishing Qi Pill. The price is considered very reasonable in the city.

Matthew didn't waste any time and took out five spiritual stones and put them on the counter.

The shopkeeper skillfully took the spirit stone and inspected it briefly, then turned around and took out two porcelain bottles from the cabinet at the back and handed them to Matthew.

Matthew took the porcelain bottle, opened it, checked it, and stuffed it into his arms.

"Do you need any other elixirs?" Seeing that Matthew collected the elixirs and did not leave immediately, but instead looked at a black wooden sign on the counter, the shopkeeper asked curiously.

"This sign says about purchasing middle-grade elixirs, but it doesn't include the price." Matthew asked, pointing to the black wooden sign.

"Mid-grade elixirs are worth a lot of money. It's difficult to give a market price. Moreover, the price must be based on the quality of the elixir, so the price will not be marked." The shopkeeper was not angry at all and explained with a smile.

Matthew nodded when he heard this, turned around and left without saying anything more.

He actually wanted to take out the middle-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill just now, but gave up after some thought.

Because, he just thought of a good place to sell middle-grade marrow cleansing pills.
