Chapter 1106: Fossil Turtle
"A turtle the size of an island?" said the appraiser, his eyes widened, he touched his chin, and said, "It's all rocks and islands on its back?
"Fossil turtle, what is this?" Not only me, but also the bookkeeper and commissioner around him looked at him in amazement.
"I've only heard, it is said that this turtle is an ancient relic, originally belonged to the land turtle, our earth's crust is very thick, as for how thick, no one knows, but in the crust of the rocks, there are many strange creatures, these creatures are very powerful, this fossil turtle is one of the legends. The appraiser said eloquently: " There are two reasons for the name fossil turtle, the first is that it is an ancient relic, called a living fossil, and second, the powerful effect of this turtle, this turtle is buried deep in the soil, can not eat for a long time, and can even be motionless all the time, for several years, decades, or even hundreds of years, but after a hundred years, the turtle opened its eyes, and the soft soil around its shell became a hard rock, mainly because of its own effect, that is, to absorb the water and nutrients in the soil, after these were absorbed by the turtle, the soil changed and became rocks, which is the origin of the name of the fossil turtle, turning the soil into rockγ β
I gasped, isn't this too powerful?
"Then how could this fossil turtle run out to sea if it was in the rock formations of the earth's crust?" I asked, puzzled.
"I don't know about this, but you think, in fact, the ocean was also land a long time ago, and the bottom of the ocean was also land, so this fossil turtle naturally also exists on the bottom of the sea, don't you also say, its back is full of reefs and coral reefs, doesn't that mean it all?" said the appraiser with a shrug.
I pretended to be very glad and said, "That's really lucky, if it weren't for the fact that it was moving very slowly, not as fast as my fishing boat, I'm afraid it wouldn't come back." β
The three of them glanced at each other, and the commissioner said: "I dare you to enter the territory of a fossil turtle beast king and capture these fifth-order and sixth-order spirit beasts, I am really glad that its speed is slow, otherwise I am afraid that it will be more than lucky." β
"yes. I laughed and said, "I'm so lucky." β
"I don't think it's as simple as going far, right?" said the shopkeeper with a smile: "We just see through it." β
I was shocked, what do I mean? Did they see through my identity?
I asked, "What do you mean by that?"
After the three of them made eye contact, Mr. Bookkeeper continued: "No matter how fast the fishing boat is, it should not be as fast as the fossil turtle, the beast king is generally a fourth-order spirit beast, this fossil turtle is only afraid that it is higher than the fourth-order, and the speed of the fourth-order spirit beast is generally very fast, if it is really chasing you, I am afraid that your fishing boat has already sunk in the sea." β
I frowned slightly, ignoring this, but in an instant, I squeezed out a smile and said, "That's really not clear, anyway, this turtle is so slow, you haven't seen this turtle yet, but I was fortunate to see it." β
"Eh!" The three of them were speechless for a moment, and then Mr. Bookkeeper adjusted his tone and said: "Actually, you, a person like you whose cultivation is not very high, and you are also a novice, it is not the first time that you have traded such a good thing, in the three major immortal sects, there are some great powers, and it is inconvenient for them to come forward by themselves, so they will find a fresh face to trade with things." β
I was stunned that they were so suspicious of me.
I thought about it for a moment, this is not bad, it makes sense to have a strong backer behind it.
"Hahaha, if you see through it and don't say it, naturally you don't say it, then please don't say it again. I smiled and agreed.
The three of them were stunned, looked at each other again, and nodded at the same time.
Yes, there is someone behind Lao Tzu and a big backer, but this person is not from the three major immortal sects, but Lao Tzu's own mother-in-law, a powerful woman!
"Alright, I'm leaving. "I'm ready to go.
"Wait, can I ask, which Immortal Sect your master belongs to?" asked the bookkeeper.
My mind spun around and I thought quickly about the purpose of his question.
The three major immortal sects are competitive, if it is Kunlun Immortal Sect or Shennong Valley, they may not accept it next time.
But if it is said that it is from Xiandao, will they be verified?
And the members of Penglai Immortal Island, who captured the spirit beast but did not hand it over to the master, instead took it out and sold it privately, is this a violation of the door rules?
Seeing that I hesitated, the bookkeeper said, "If it's inconvenient, then don't say it." β
I sighed and said, "I don't think the other two Immortal Sects have the courage to come to our Immortal Island to fight the autumn wind. β
When the three of them heard this, they made eye contact again, and then Mr. Bookkeeper asked, "But are you from Dafeng Teahouse?"
"Who told you that I'm from Dafeng Teahouse?" I asked with a smile.
The three of them frowned again, and I simply couldn't get entangled anymore, and said, "Let's go, go to Dafeng Teahouse to find me if you have something." β
I went out with the bag of Xuanjing on my back, and after going out, I quickly returned to Dafeng Teahouse, and then went directly into the room, and directly threw 10,000 Xuanjing into the Tower of Babel, so that the machine spirit could absorb and replenish the energy that disappeared.
"Well, how much of this has been added?" I couldn't wait to ask the machine spirit.
"I have almost replenished all the energy consumed by this trip. The machine spirit said.
"That's good. I nodded, and at that rate, it was still within my reach.
"Husband, they already suspect you, what are you going to do next?" Yuelan asked me.
"I don't have any ideas now, these medicinal materials are far from what we need, not even a fraction of what we need, we have to find a way to get seeds, go back and plant them, otherwise I'm afraid that this time it's enough, and we have to come next time, the pills are always consumables, and if we don't completely solve the supply of medicinal materials, we can't provide enough pills, so we must get the seeds." I said with a sigh.
"You mean you don't plan to go back now?" Yuelan asked again.
"What are you afraid of, this time I'm alone, if I am chased by them, I will jump into the sea, and they will have nowhere to find them. "I figured out a way out.
"Yes. The machine spirit added: "As long as the energy is replenished, the Tower of Babel can be waterproof, and when the master also enters the tower, I should be able to bring the master and the master mother out of the sphere of influence of Penglai Immortal Island safely." β
"Okay, with your words, then I'll take a gamble. "With the guarantee of the machine spirit, I also have confidence.
"But I guess that Xiandao Pavilion will definitely not sell seeds, and the medicinal herbs are only sold for some medicinal herbs that they think are relatively ordinary and have a large quantity, and as for those that are rare, they don't sell either. Yuelan threw out another question.
"There is no Xiandao Pavilion, but Penglai Xiandao must have it, if it doesn't work, then I will go to Penglai Xiandao, no matter what, I have to get the seeds." "I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists, and I strengthened my confidence.
Knock knock, at this moment, there was a knock on the door and the shopkeeper's anxious shout: "Xiaofan, there are two disciples of Penglai Immortal Island looking for you outside." β
I was taken aback, I found it so quickly, it must be someone from Xiandao Pavilion who went to report it, I went to go, no wonder the three of them laughed so treacherously!
