Jiuxiao
Chapter 42
The man looked to be no more than thirty years old, dressed in a blue robe embroidered with dark patterns of auspicious clouds, tall, thin and handsome, his face was as delicate as a creamy pearl when the candlelight shone on him at night. It will never be mistaken for him to be a woman disguised as a man, just because there is a sense of Xiao Su's coldness all over this person.
Although Zhou Yin is expressionless most of the time, he is too lazy to speak, but he is just born with this personality, not acquired. ——Huang Wenjun once tried to talk to Zhou Yin for a whole day, but the reply he got was a face with a paralyzed face that had not changed for thousands of years plus the word "um", and he completely collapsed at that time.So apart from the Zhou family's parents, Zhou Zhang, and a fur ball that was not considered a human being back then, so far, no one has been able to stay by his side comfortably, including He Yun.
However, the indifference of this person in front of him is completely different from that of Zhou Yin.
His eyebrows, eyes, and the corners of his mouth, there is nothing that does not reveal the indifference and arrogance that rejects people thousands of miles away. There is no blood on his body, but there is a very faint, very faint smell of blood.
This is a golden core monk.
Others may not have paid much attention to the jade crown on this man's head and the beads on his wrist, but the owner of the store has been immersed in magic weapons for many years, and his eyes are so sharp. Not low.
The person in front of me probably has a lot of history.
Zhou Yin only glanced at him, and then his eyes slipped away from him.
The owner of the store hurriedly put on a smile: "Young master, you just said...?"
The man said, "I want to buy this hairpin."
The shopkeeper looked at Zhou Yin, and then at him, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
One is a foundation-building cultivator, and the other is an alchemy-forming cultivator. His balance immediately became inclined, but he came first and then came first, and he took the initiative to recommend Zhou Yin with the splashing snow hairpin. It is not easy to offend others. Peace is precious, if this foundation-builder cultivator has great achievements in the future, and he comes to trouble him again, he will be the one who suffers.
"My lord, do you see...?" He looked at Zhou Yin.
"I don't want to throw snow hairpins, I only exchange spirit stones." Zhou Yin said.
He never showed any interest in Poxuechai from the beginning to the end, and it was the shop owner who insisted on introducing her.
Zhou Yinken gave up voluntarily, so everyone was happy. The shopkeeper smiled at the latecomer, "My lord, this thing is thanks to your patronage, and it costs 30 yuan for high-grade spirit stones."
Although the Poxue Chai is a high-level magic weapon, it can only be worn as a decoration for women to enhance spiritual power. It can neither defend nor attack, and its practicality may not be as good as a middle-level offensive magic weapon.
The man didn't even look at it, threw out a bag of spirit stones, picked up the box and left.
The shopkeeper opened the bag and looked carefully, and found that these spirit stones were all radiant, but they were the essence of top-grade spirit stones.
"That young master just now, I'm afraid he is really a direct disciple of some great sect, he is really generous with his aura, tsk tsk..." The shop owner has never met such a happy customer.
"Hey, you just said that you want top-grade spirit stones. Coincidentally, you have them now!"
Zhou Yin said: "You can exchange these talismans for a top-grade spirit stone, and you can exchange the rest for mid-grade ones."
"Okay!" The shopkeeper was very happy to make two deals in a row, with a beaming smile on his face.
After leaving the shop, the person just now had disappeared, and just after passing the shop, the Immortal Collection was still lively.
All the spirit stones were stuffed into the Sumeru ring. The low-grade and middle-grade spirit stones can replenish aura and repair the consumption of magic weapons. As for the top-grade spirit stones, they are reserved for retreating and advancing. Zhou Yin has more than a dozen pieces on his body. It was given by the former head Zou Jingyuan when he went down the mountain to practice. Now that the Jinghai School is going to be accepted by Shang Xuanzong, even if they need high-grade spirit stones, they will naturally have to wait for the settlement before Shang Xuanzong distributes them.
There are countless foundation-building disciples like him in Shangxuanzong, and it is difficult to get many, so Zhou Yin went out, holding the mentality of "of course, the more such things, the better", gradually collecting them, in case of impact at that time It can come in handy during the golden elixir stage, and after the golden elixir stage, if he succeeds in advancing, he can unlock the restriction of his own cave, and he doesn't need to worry about spirit stones.
Right now there is no more important matter, going to Xuanzong's place, it's the same if you go early or late, so he wanted to go and have a look at the treasure appraising conference in Luzhou City.
As he walked past the stall, a gurgling sound caught his attention.
The dusty hair ball jumped up and down there, but because the range of movement was restricted by the spell, it could only jump around in place.
The stall owner is a monk at the fifth level of Qi Refining. He noticed Zhou Yin's gaze and said enthusiastically, "This is a low-level monster called Gu Yuan, which can be used to refine elixir."
This is a real gu kite, seven points like Zhou Chen, but the eyes are dull and lifeless, far less agile than Zhou Chen.
Zhou Yin watched for a while without stopping.
Even if it looks like it again, it is not after all.
From that day on, Zhou Chen disappeared without a trace and never appeared again.
Zhou Yin stayed in Lingzhou for a few more days. Before it came back, he set off for Luzhou.
This day happened to be the time for the Treasure Appreciation Conference to be held. The Marquis of Yongning was so rich that he booked all the inns in the city for monks to stay in for free. Stay in an empty inn, so monks can be seen everywhere in Luzhou City. Naturally, there are many low-level monks who come to join in the fun, but there are also many Jindan masters. At this level, I am afraid that as soon as he came, he would be taken to another courtyard by the Marquis of Yongning who received the news to entertain him alone.
There are quite a few houses under the name of Marquis Yongning, the largest of which is Peach Blossom Villa, which is specially used as the venue for the treasure appraisal conference.This is not the season for peach blossoms to bloom, but I don't know what method Sima Liang used to cover the entire villa in a sea of crimson and pink flowers all year round, making the peach blossom villa quite famous.
According to previous rumors, as long as you bet on your own treasure, no matter whether the Marquis of Yongning wants to buy it or not, all participants will get a high-grade spirit stone as a gift.Zhou Yin was skeptical about this statement, because in this case, many people would randomly bet on a low-level magic weapon, and in the end they would get a spirit stone for nothing without being favored.
In fact, when he came here, he realized that Marquis Yongning really couldn't be that stupid.
There are people guarding the entrance of Peach Blossom Villa for a preliminary appraisal. Visitors need to show the magic weapon they want to sell to the other party for appraisal. If it is a low-level magic weapon, the people of Yongning Houfu will not look at it, so naturally they will not be able to enter.
In front of Zhou Yin, there was a monk in the Qi refining period who took a low-level magic weapon and wanted to get in, but he was politely blocked back, and he couldn't get angry. The person who came to check was a monk in the alchemy period.
Maybe it was because of the little accident earlier, when the other party saw Zhou Yin, his face hadn't recovered yet.
"What magic weapon do you want to bet on?"
Zhou Yin took off the hairpin, turned his palm over, and it instantly turned into a Lingyin sword.
There are Jade Lingxi and Xitian Pen in Xumijie, but it is impossible for Zhou Yin to take out these two, so only Lingyin Sword is available.
This middle-level magic weapon is not too publicized, and it won't be kicked out like the previous man because he couldn't produce a decent magic weapon, so it couldn't be more suitable.
Sure enough, the Dandan cultivator looked at the Lingyin Sword, hummed, and nodded slightly. Then someone came forward with the box, put the hairpin into the box, and another maid handed him a wooden sign, leading He enters.
"Please come with your servants."
Peach Blossom Villa occupies a very large area. Even though there are quite a few people who are qualified to attend the meeting, hundreds of monks, together with the servants of the villa itself, did not make the place seem crowded.
Appreciating treasures will be held in the Lengyue Pavilion in the peach forest. There are colorful fallen flowers and many shadows of flowers. The beautiful maidservant shuttles between the seats holding peach blossom wine, pouring wine for the monks. Not far away, there are several girls playing pianos under the trees. It sounds more like a poetry club.
When Zhou Yin took his seat, the treasure appraising meeting had already started, so even though the seats on his left and right were full of people, they gradually stopped talking, looked at the field, and concentrated on seeing what amazing treasure someone bet this time.
Marquis Yongning had arrived, but he didn't show up. Zhou Yin and the others were sitting in the lobby on the first floor, but he was behind the gauze curtain on the second floor, unable to see his face clearly.
A middle-aged man with a sharp face came to the center, and said loudly: "Thank you for coming from afar, to participate in the treasure appraising meeting, and to welcome the next generation of Marquis. The scenery here is pleasant. If you don't give up, you can also stay here for a few more days. Today, enjoy the scenery of the villa." He paused, and then said: "This time, thanks to your kindness, there are hundreds of treasures sent over. In order not to waste your time, Lord Hou asked someone to carry out these treasures again After screening, the remaining dozens will be presented one by one."
Zhou Yin's Lingyin sword did not pass the second round of screening, so he never appeared here. When he returned, he returned the wooden card, received the spirit stone, and took back his own Lingyin sword along the way.
The treasure appraisal meeting in Luzhou City is held once every ten years. It has already been held twice, and this is the third time.
The "treasures" in the previous two rounds were only aimed at those rare treasures in the secular world, but this time, what is needed is the magic weapon of cultivation.
There are three grades of magic weapons in the world of comprehension: high, middle, and low. Many powerful magic weapons are regarded as life by monks. No matter how much money the Marquis of Yongning pays, they cannot buy them, but in fact they are not absolute.The reason is: although some magic treasures are precious, their usefulness is limited, just like the snow-throwing hairpin; some magic treasures have unknown origins and wrong paths, and the owners don't want to use this to provoke enemies, so they throw out the hot potato.In this way, it is cheaper for Marquis Yongning.
He has always been obsessed with treasures, so he specially opened a Linlang Pavilion to store the treasures he collected over the years.The Linlang Pavilion contains all the rare treasures in the world. Even if there is no magic weapon in it, there are still some people who covet it with covetousness and try their best to rob it secretly. , but lost his life. As time passed, the reputation of Linlang Pavilion spread like wildfire, but fewer and fewer people came to steal.
"This first magic weapon is called Feiyunshuo..."
The person on the other side continued to introduce, Zhou Yin just glanced at it and slid away, his attention fell on another place.
Behind a tree not far away, there is a man standing.
It was the man who bought the splashing snow hairpin in the store that day.
The author has something to say: There are many place names that have appeared so far, such as Yunzhou, Songzhou, Luzhou, Lingzhou, etc., but you don’t need to remember, I will remind you when necessary.
Although Zhou Yin is expressionless most of the time, he is too lazy to speak, but he is just born with this personality, not acquired. ——Huang Wenjun once tried to talk to Zhou Yin for a whole day, but the reply he got was a face with a paralyzed face that had not changed for thousands of years plus the word "um", and he completely collapsed at that time.So apart from the Zhou family's parents, Zhou Zhang, and a fur ball that was not considered a human being back then, so far, no one has been able to stay by his side comfortably, including He Yun.
