Volume 1 The Red City Chapter 13 The Choice of Disciples Begins
Hearing Zhu He say this, Qingliu couldn't help but nod and said: "Yes, this Mangdian in Luohuang City is indeed generous, if it is replaced by Hongcheng Mangdian, I'm afraid our things won't be worth the price." ”
Na Zhuhe looked at Qingliu and sighed: "Brother, you are still too young, you will know when you get to the trading area." ”
Zhu He led the way in front, turned left and right, and walked into an open-air paddock, only to see that the pedestrians and sellers who came and went here were all cultivators.
Qingliu couldn't help but be surprised, Hongcheng has a large population, but the people who are mangs only account for three or four percent, most of them are ordinary people, if it is not a big event, it is rare to see the cultivators gather together in normal times, but the cultivators here are like merchants and brokers gathered together, drinking, buying and selling, no different from ordinary people.
These cultivators have different realms, most of them are in the Bone Refining Realm, but there are also many powerhouses in the Jun Realm. Zhu He led Zhu Liqingliu and walked in.
Qingliu saw the stalls here, a dazzling array of things that were needed by all kinds of cultivators, weapons and armor, miscanthus medicine raw miscanthus stones, beast mangdan, mangs, animal skins, and red mangs, and even Qingliu saw a few mangdans.
Qingliu walked to a stall, only to see a half-person high copper platform placed on the stall, the texture on the stage is all over, the carving is delicate, it is very good-looking, and I can't help but stop and watch.
Zhu Li saw him staring at the copper platform and explained: "This is the refining platform, which is used by the refiners when refining the mangs." ”
"What is the use of refining mangtai?" Qingliu couldn't help but ask.
Zhu He said in a voice beside him: "We don't know the specifics, we only know that when the refiner refines the mangdan, the mangdan will often explode, and the function of the mangtai is to block the mangqi and prevent the refiner from being injured by the overflowing mangqi." ”
Qingliu recalled the last time he saw Han Shan refining Mangdan, and Mangdan's repeated explosions couldn't help but be stunned.
Qingliu looked at the price of this refining platform, five thousand red mango stones, and couldn't help but turn dark.
"Don't think about it, the most expensive thing in the world, whether it is bought or sold, is generally the stuff of the refiner, don't say that this Luo Imperial City, I also need three or four thousand red mango stones for a refining platform in Rock City, don't take it to heart. Zhu He said with a smile.
Then Qingliu walked around with Zhu Hezhuli, and when he saw the things on the stall, he was shocked to see Qingliu, it was too expensive, and the expensive Qingliu couldn't help but smack his tongue.
Take the red mango rough stone as an example, Qingliu sold a bowl of the size of a bowl to Hongcheng Mangdian, sold 300,000 mangshi, if it is replaced with red mango stone, it will be about 300, and a piece of red mango rough stone here that is slightly larger than the bowl mouth is priced at 500 red mango stone, Qingliu can't help but call out the black heart.
With 5,000 red miscanthus stones on his body, Qingliu didn't buy anything, good things are too expensive, and cheap things are basically none.
Suddenly, Qingliu saw a big man in black walking into the paddock, covering his face with a black scarf, only revealing a pair of eyes, walked straight to an open space, took out a piece of gray cloth and spread it on the ground, sat on it, took out jade boxes from the mangring, and placed them on top of the gray cloth.
"The people of the Shadow Gate, hurry up, go over and grab some Jundan" There was a commotion in the crowd, and many people shouted quietly, and immediately surrounded them.
That Zhu He Zhu Li is also a spirit, pulling the green stream to drill over there.
Qingliu was puzzled, and while following into the crowd, he asked Zhu Li, "What is the origin of this person from the Shadow Gate?"
Zhu Li replied: "The people of this shadow gate specialize in selling Jundan in this paddock, but it is relatively rare, and today we are lucky to meet it." ”
"Jundan, is it Mandan?" asked Qingliu.
Zhu He next to him explained: "Jun Dan is not Mangdan, what the Jun Realm Refiner refined is Jun Mangdan, which is one word different from this Jundan." This Jun Dan was formed in the body after Namang, a strong man in the Jun Realm, entered the body, and a Jun Dan is a Jun Dan powerhouse. ”
A Jundan is a Junjing powerhouse? Qingliu was stunned on the spot.
"Then how did this Jundan come from?" Qingliu asked with a snort.
Zhu Hetou didn't reply, and replied: "Naturally, it's killing people to take pills, what's there to talk about." ”
Qingliu let Zhu He pull himself into the crowd, and was a little stunned for a while. Killing people and taking pills seems to be said to be a little more relaxed, looking at the gray cloth, there are a row of jade boxes, I am afraid that there are one or twenty Jun Dan, each Jun Dan is a Jun Jing powerhouse, this is one or twenty naked human lives in front of him.
Qingliu used to only know that the servants were cheap and their lives were worthless, and he thought that he would be able to live with a little dignity if he became a cultivator, but now he saw the Jundan in front of him, Qingliu couldn't help but be silent, Junjing was already considered a strong man in Hongcheng, and he was taken out of Jundan and sold in front of people, and he hadn't even stepped into Junjing, could he really live with a little dignity in this place?
The three of them had already squeezed to the front, Qingliu shook his head, pressed down the distracting thoughts in his heart, and looked at the black-clothed man in the stall.
The black-clothed man had already taken out all the jade boxes and placed them neatly in front of him, the jade boxes were slightly open, and there were Jun Dan quietly placed inside.
"The old rule, one thousand red stones. The man in black spoke in a hoarse voice and spoke lightly.
Zhu Li looked excited, pulled Zhu He's sleeve and whispered: "Brother, let's buy one each, with this Jundan, I am afraid that the speed of our Mangs can be one or two percent faster, and the role of Jundan is much stronger than that of Chimangshi." ”
Zhu He nodded quietly, took out the mangshi from the mangshi, and bought two Jundan. Then he looked at Qingliu and said, "Qingliu, don't you buy it?" It's rare to meet people from this shadow gate, and next time you want to buy Jundan, I don't know how long you will have to wait." ”
When Qingliu heard this, he groaned, and although he was disgusted, he still took out the red mango stone and bought one.
Jun Dan in front of the black-clothed man was bought after only a short period of effort, and the big man put away the gray cloth, put in the mangring, and did not stay, turned around and walked out of the paddock and disappeared.
Qingliu looked at Jun Dan, who was the size of a thumb in his hand, and couldn't help but be stunned, and there was a strange feeling in his heart, pinching it in his hand was a human life.
The Zhu brothers were elated, and they didn't come to Luohuang City in vain, but they didn't notice Qingliu's strangeness, after all, they were different from Qingliu, and they couldn't understand Qingliu's innermost emotions.
Qingliu cleaned up the strange emotions in his heart, and asked the Zhu family brothers, "What's the use of this Jundan?" ”
Zhu He replied: "The function of this Jundan is similar to that of Mangshi Mangdan, and it is used for Mangdan. Jun Dan is made of the strong man of Jun Realm, which contains a large amount of mangqi, and is extremely pure, Jundan is different from the beast Mangdan, the beast Mangdan is knotted in the body of the Mang, the mangqi is violent, and cannot be directly absorbed, but this Jundan is knotted in the human body, which can be absorbed directly, and the speed of absorption is extremely fast, which can be regarded as a rare good thing. ”
"But after all, Jundan is the mangqi cultivated by others, containing the qi and blood of others, you can't absorb too much, otherwise it will affect your own mind, if it's serious, it can even make you crazy, so you can only use Jundan mangs occasionally, and it's easy to have problems if you use it for a long time. Zhu He warned Qingliu.
Hearing this, Qingliu nodded and put Jun Dan into the mangring.
Qingliu Mang, so far, has never used Mangshi Mangdan, he Mang, all rely on his own to pull the heaven and earth Mangqi, into the body, even so, the speed of Mang, is already fast, although this Jundan said, but he doesn't want to use it, maybe he wants to change his peace of mind.
The three of them went out of the enclosure and found a restaurant to live in, and the wind died waiting to live in the Feng Death Mansion in Luohuang City, and they began to choose apprentices tomorrow, but there were not a few people who heard the news to come to Luohuang City, and I am afraid that they would have to squeeze again.
The restaurant where Qingliu and they live is not far from the Feng Fu Mansion, and now the building is almost full, most of them are young people from the Refining Body Realm or Jun Realm from a nearby small town, and they all want to worship under the Feng Fu Waiting Door.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple. Qingliu couldn't help muttering as he looked at so many people who came to hear the wind.
The waiting realm can already be regarded as a strong person in this Luo Imperial City, not to mention that this wind is still a refiner, and its identity as a refiner is much more valuable than the realm of a cultivator.
There is a mangsa refiner as a teacher, are you still afraid of the lack of mangdan?
When he arrived at this Luo Imperial City, he took a turn in the paddock, and Qingliu learned that the last time he was auctioned in the Red City Auction House, it was only the lowest-level Mangdan, which was used by the people below the monarch realm, even if it was used to continue his life, if it was a strong person in the monarch realm, the effect would not be good, but even so, it still made the major families in the Red City break their heads.
Mangdan also has ranks, what the Junjing powerhouse needs most is still Junjing Mangdan, as for the Houjing powerhouse, I'm afraid that it is the Houjing Mangdan to meet the needs, Jundan, these things, just because Mangdan is scarce, the cultivators have no choice but to find a substitute, and it is Mangdan that really makes people frantically compete for it.
Therefore, even if Feng Death Hou is not a strong person in the waiting realm, just by virtue of his identity as a refiner, if he wants to choose a disciple, it will be flocked to by countless people, not to mention that his own strength is also extremely strong, with so many people coming, Qingliu does not feel strange.
After resting in the restaurant for one night, Qingliu and the Zhu brothers went out early and waited at the gate of the Fengfu Mansion. Qingliu and the others left as soon as dawn broke, but they didn't expect to be a little late, and when they arrived at the Fengfu Mansion, the gate of the mansion was already crowded.
"It's all your fault, you can't afford to wake up early, look, it's late. Zhu He grabbed Zhu Li and counted it again, Zhu Li did not refute, pursed his lips, and turned his head to the side.
After waiting for a long time, I saw that the door of the house suddenly opened, and the young people at the door suddenly surged, wanting to squeeze in, but saw an old man walking out slowly, and said in a loud voice: "Young masters and young ladies have been waiting for a long time, my lord has commanded, quenching bones quadruplely, refining the body quadruple can enter the house, if not, follow me to the side room, my marquis has prepared gifts for you, so you don't let you run in vain." ”
Many people retorted: "How many percent of the quenching bone refining body is, you can only see it if you look inward, and others don't know, how to tell how heavy the quenching bone refining body is, isn't it that I said how heavy is how heavy?"
The old man smiled when he heard this, turned sideways, and two big men carried two huge black stones, walked out, and put the stones at the door of the mansion with a "bang".
The old man said loudly: "These are two pieces of fine iron stone, one is a dark iron stone, those who have not entered the monarch realm, only need to leave a fist mark on this fine iron stone, they can enter the mansion, and those who have entered the monarch realm must leave a fist mark on this dark iron stone before they can enter the mansion." ”
Qingliu heard the words suddenly, refining the body and quenching the bones, every time you refine one more weight, the strength will be a few points greater, can you leave a fist print, whether the fist mark is deep or shallow, you can naturally see the difference in strength, so as to infer the realm of quenching the bone and refining the body, I have to say that this method is still very ingenious.
When everyone heard the explanation, their faces changed, and Zhu He Zhu Li, who was beside Qing Liu, jumped to his feet, only to hear Zhu He say in his mouth: "If you don't bring such a playful person, you don't need to leave a mark on the Xuantie Stone with a punch, this punch will not be wasted, ouch, brother, let's go back, this trip is in vain." ”
Zhu Li also looked depressed, the two brothers walked all the way for more than ten days, but when they arrived at the gate of this mansion, they had not seen the face of the wind and death, and now they had the intention of going back.
Qingliu couldn't help but pat the two brothers on the shoulder, and didn't know how to comfort them.
"Brother Qingliu, let's go back. "Zhu Hedao.
Qingliu smiled when he heard this, and said, "I won't go back, I haven't entered this mansion yet, how can I go back." ”
Zhu He wanted to persuade him again, but Zhu Li grabbed Zhu He's sleeve and asked Qingliu with a questioning face: "You have reached the fourth level of bone quenching and training?"
Qingliu smiled and nodded, but did not speak.
"Animals. The Zhu brothers muttered in unison.
Originally, there was a large group of young people and girls at the gate of the Feng Fu Mansion, but seeing the old man asking for this, many people were disheartened and left straight away, but after a short while, the number of people at the gate of the mansion was reduced by nearly one-third.
Most of the people left behind were also watching, and occasionally one or two teenagers stepped forward and tried to do something, but many failed attempts and returned to the crowd in disgrace.
"Do you want to go back, if you want to go back, I'll send you away, and I'll try again." Qinghui turned his head and asked the Zhu family brothers.
The two brothers shook their heads like rattles, and said to him: "You can enter the mansion, the fool will go back, after you enter the mansion, we will go back to the restaurant to wait for you, if you come back, you have to talk to us about the experience, so that we can have a long experience." ”
Hearing this, Qingliu nodded, turned around and walked towards the mansion gate.
"Such a big doll, another one is here to try it out?" someone in the crowd at the gate of the house laughed.
Qingliu ignored it and walked to the fine iron stone, but instead of punching, he squatted down, stretched out his fingers, and gently pinched the stone.
Qingliu's thumb increased his strength slightly, pressed it on the fine iron stone, and left a shallow fingerprint on the stone, which is very inconspicuous if you don't look closely.
After pinching this fine iron stone, Qingliu also has a general understanding of the hardness of the stone, Qingliu is ten times for quenching bones and ten times for refining the body, don't say that it is this fine iron stone, it is the dark iron stone next to it, he can directly blow it up with a punch.
Qingliu didn't want to be so eye-catching, what he wanted was just to meet the requirements, not too shocking, after all, quenching bones and training was his biggest secret, and it was also the reason why he knew that he didn't belong to this world.
Qingliu took a deep breath, pretended to punch to accumulate strength, and then punched, swung three points of force, and hit the fine iron stone, leaving a fist mark on it that was neither deep nor shallow.
There was an uproar all of a sudden, many people looked at Qingliu in a daze, Qingliu didn't pay attention to it, and bowed slightly to the old man at the door, the old man nodded at him, and Qingliu walked straight to the house.
Walking into the mansion, a servant led Qingliu and led him into a guest hall in the Wind Death Mansion.
At this time, there were already one or twenty young boys and girls in the guest hall, each sitting on the chair in the guest hall, Qingliu found an empty chair, and sat down, the servant brought tea, put it on the wooden table next to the chair, and slowly withdrew from the guest hall.
One after another, people came in, also looking for a seat to sit down, waiting quietly.
After waiting for a long time, no one came in the guest hall, it was almost noon at this time, the guest hall was full of people, Qingliu counted slightly, I am afraid that there were as many as thirty or forty people.
At the beginning, there were one or two hundred people around the outside of the Feng Death Waiting Mansion, but just the requirement of refining the bone refining body was forty percent, and only these thirty or forty people in the hall met the requirements, and I have to say that this bone refining body was indeed extremely difficult for others.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe walked into the door, walking in front with his hands, followed by an old man who was a little rickety, and his clothes were simple.
The young people in the guest hall suddenly got up, Qingliu also stood up, and the young people bowed and saluted: "Meet the wind and die." ”
Qingliu followed the others, and couldn't help but look up at the wind and death.
This wind died looking like he was thirty or forty years old, wearing an orange brocade robe, and the brocade robe was painted with a qilin to ward off evil spirits, and his appearance was dignified and solemn, but he looked like a strong man.
Qingliu glanced at it, but he looked at the old man beside Feng Death, this old man always stood on this body, it seemed that he couldn't stand up straight, his face was full of wrinkles, and there was an old scar on his cheeks, from the corner of his eyes to his chin, it looked very scary, and his attendant stood beside Feng Death, and seemed to be a servant of Feng Death.
Feng Fu Hou pressed his hands weakly, nodded lightly as a return gift, and said: "You little friends can enter this Feng Fu Waiting Mansion, they are all rare geniuses, but now there are still thirty or forty little friends in the hall, and I choose one of the Feng Death disciples, you little friends are afraid that you will need to fight again." ”
"Limber. Feng Hou bowed his hand slightly to the old man beside him and called.
The old man took a step forward and said: "This time is the wind to choose the apprentice, naturally to choose the one with excellent talent, the one with a strong heart, and the one with the strongest comprehension ability, therefore, there are three trials for the selection of apprentices this time, each trial has different requirements, and finally choose the best one of all the trials, can you understand?"
The teenagers nodded yes.
The old man continued: "This person with excellent talent is naturally competing with the speed of Mang, and when he comes, he will come up. ”
As soon as the old man's voice fell, several servants with jade plates came in the guest hall, and the servants walked through the guest hall, and after a while, each young man got a jade box in his hand.
Qingliu opened the jade box in his hand, only to see that the jade box was filled with a mangdan.
"It's a big deal!" Qingliu couldn't help but sigh softly.
There are thirty or forty young people and girls in this hall, one for each person, which is thirty or forty mangdan, and this wind is so generous.
