"Well... you don't have to be so direct. You can ask other questions before talking about the spirit sword." The shopkeeper didn't expect Shen Xia to be so direct.

Just like following the plot in a game, Shen Xia can't fast forward to the end of the plot at once, she has to do it step by step.

"Aunt Zhu's door is connected to the hotel? Then if I use the jade flute to open the door of the hotel, can I return to Heqing Village? Is this a teleportation array or a secret method of space?" Shen Xia asked her second question.

"You guessed it right. There are two formations engraved on that door. Different keys can open different formations. The jade flute is the key to the teleportation formation, and the key you received at the hotel is the key to the space formation."

Shen Xia probably guessed that if it was the time and space secret method, Gu Yunfan and Lu Yunfei would have broken into the sword tomb long ago. They were looking for people with time and space talents to prepare for finding Xi Muzi.

"So it's not like you and Aunt Zhu haven't met before, right? The stories I've heard are too watery." Shen Xia looked at the shopkeeper and said.

"Ahem," the shopkeeper's face turned slightly red, "Young adults should stop asking about children. Next question."

"What is the purpose of these wines? If I guess correctly, shopkeeper, you don't like drinking, but you always ask us to help you get the wine back."

"Well... this should be called a souvenir left for me. The wine each of you brought back is actually different. I can recall each of you based on the taste of each jar of wine." The shopkeeper explained.

"For example, Miss Shen, the wine you brought back has the aroma of bamboo and rice, very much like you."

Shen Xia didn't know how the shopkeeper associated these two smells with herself, so she didn't worry about it, and continued: "I have no problem. Shopkeeper, you can tell me now where I should look for the spirit sword. You should And we know what our purpose here is.”

"Of course, this is the Spirit Sword Hotel. If you ask anyone who knows the origins of various spirit swords, it would be me."

"But before that," the shopkeeper changed the topic, "I would like to ask Miss Shen to settle the fee. One question is charged 100 spirit stones. Miss Shen, you asked 5 questions, and one question does not count. The total is 400 spirit stones."

? ? ? ? Shen Xia wanted to kick all these wine jars down. What kind of black shop dared to charge so much?

"You won't have to pay for it later, right?" Shen Xia doesn't hate paid items, but she still feels a little disgusted with this kind of behavior of cutting things off first and paying later.

"No, no, if nothing else, this should be your last consumption item here." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Shen Xia took out 600 spirit stones: "In that case, let me ask two more questions. First, shopkeeper, what is your relationship with the head of the Tianguan Sect or the Tianguan Sect? Second, what is the composition of the residents in this Sword Tomb? What is it?"

Shen Xia was still a little curious, which sect's sword tomb was like this one? You come in and walk through the plot, and you still have to pay for it in a circle. Is this some kind of paid scenic spot?

"Oh, you mean the head of Lezheng? He is my senior brother. How did you find out? Some of the people in this sword tomb are indigenous people who were here from the beginning, and some of them came in by mistake from behind. Yes, some were thrown in by senior brothers, and some were spirit swords that became intelligent and transformed into humans. Anyway, the people living there are quite mixed."

Okay...it is true that the population is quite mixed. Shen Xia is a little speechless. She actually wants to say that it is extremely unreliable that there are people living in Sword Tomb!

"Miss Shen, do you want to ask why there are so many people living in Jianzhong?" The shopkeeper looked at Shen Xia's constipated expression and said, "I will give you this question for free."

"Every year when the Sword Tomb is opened, a few lucky people will be randomly transported to our scene. In fact, most people who enter the Sword Tomb are really Sword Tombs, but you lucky people are different."

"Think about it, there are many swords in the Sword Tomb, but the ones with better condition and higher quality have been picked up by us, aren't we? If you want a good spiritual sword, hey, you have to ask me, Otherwise, why do you think Senior Brother Lezheng sent me here? Of course, I want to test you to see if you are worthy of a good spiritual sword. Senior Brother and I have good intentions, do you understand?"

Shen Xia understands the good intentions, but does it need to be tested with spiritual stones? Even those who are slightly poorer cannot withstand this test.

"After the spirit sword was handed over to you, did you think it was to be cared for with love? Wrong! Big mistake! Of course it is nourished with spirit stones. Without spirit stones, how can you give the spirit sword a warm and comfortable environment to grow? Can you bear to let you Will my spirit sword accompany you to eat and sleep in the open air?" the shopkeeper said "quibbled".

I am just here to choose a spiritual sword, how can I feel like I am choosing a lifelong partner? But what the shopkeeper said is not unreasonable. After choosing the natal spirit sword, you must cherish it. The scabbard, sword tassel, and subsequent maintenance of the sword spirit are a big expense.

Shen Xia seems to have been successfully brainwashed by the shopkeeper, so Shen Xia no longer worries about the charging issue, but gets back to the business: "So, shopkeeper, can you tell me where the spiritual sword is now?"

Shen Xia had guessed from the beginning that if he wanted to find a spirit sword, he would have to ask the shopkeeper. He was joking about the big four words "Spirit Sword Hotel". Did he think it was really just a simple name?

"If I'm not wrong, your hotel, shopkeeper, can not only accommodate people, but also spirit swords. Have I passed the test now? Can you tell me what my reward for passing the level is?"

The shopkeeper smiled and clapped his hands. Rows of luminous pearls lit up on the left side of the warehouse. Rows of palm-sized wooden boxes were displayed on the wall. Judging from the appearance and size, they were similar to the wooden boxes Shen Xia brought back from the pearls. Exactly the same.

The shopkeeper took out the wooden box that Shen Xia brought back, put it on the shelf and lined it up, and said, "Miss Shen, I gave it to you from the beginning, or it chose you from the beginning."

when?

Shen Xia's mind began to quickly review the scene when she came to the hotel, then she took out the fan-shaped key from her waist and asked in disbelief: "Is this it?"

The shopkeeper used his spiritual power to take down a box from the first row of wooden shelves on the wall and walked to Shen Xia: "Exactly, this is your natal spiritual sword. From the first moment you stepped into the hotel, it awakened coming."

I want to ask Shen Xia how she feels? It's hard to explain in one sentence. If he knew that his destiny spirit sword was always hanging on his waist, then why would he go to Heqing Village to find any guilt?

"Hey, Miss Shen, you can't think like that," the shopkeeper seemed to have the ability to read minds, "If you want to get the spirit sword, you have to go to Heqing Village to get the wine and the box back. The wine is what you left behind when you took the spirit sword. It is a souvenir for me, and the box is used as a room for the next spiritual sword. If these two conditions are not met, I will never give the spiritual sword to you."

"Here, take it. This box can be used as a resting place for the spirit sword before you fully tame it. In addition, the room you are in the hotel will also become the space for the spirit sword in the future. Explore it slowly."

"By the way, the name of this spiritual sword is 'Nine Roots of Green Onion'."
