Chapter 20 Spending money is a science
This is the seed of the pith flower?
Song Zhaoting said, "Although the marrow flower is good, it is said that it takes three hundred years from planting to growing. ”
The world cultivates, only emphasizing spiritual power and not the physical body, after all, after building the foundation, the utility of spiritual power is greatly highlighted, and in the face of spiritual power, no matter how powerful the physical body is, it is vulnerable.
But Chu Xiaoyue knew that if spiritual power and physical body could be cultivated at the same time, the effect would never be one plus one equals two.
Because under the continuous increase of cultivation, the bearing capacity of the physical body will slowly become a limit for the growth of spiritual power, strengthening the physical body can not only strengthen the body's defense ability to a certain extent, but also play a role in strengthening the meridians, and then accommodate more spiritual power.
Even, when the physical body is strong enough to a certain extent, it can be filled with spiritual power, not only in the meridians, but also in every inch of skin and every bone!
It's not that people in the world don't know that cultivating the physical body can help them cultivate, but the monks who insist on cultivating the physical body see that the cultivators who originally cultivated similar to their own cultivation, but the strength of the monks who concentrate on cultivating spiritual energy is getting stronger and stronger, and they gradually feel that they spend so much time refining their physical bodies, as if they are really not as good as specializing in spiritual power.
Slowly, these intelligent people who pursued rapid advancement gradually gave up the cultivation of the physical body, which was arduous and not obvious, and only felt that since they had passed the forging period, the strength of the physical body was enough.
"Raw pith flower seeds, three, the starting price is eight hundred spirit stones!"
"Eight hundred spirit stones? As soon as the auctioneer made the reserve price, Zhao Minbai sneered.
Sure enough, everyone and Zhao Minbai have similar ideas, this thing sounds a little related to the Quenching Bone Pill, but in fact, it takes three hundred years to grow the marrow, and most of the people present don't know how many will be left after three hundred years.
Not to mention eight hundred spirit stones.
There was silence in the venue, and the auctioneer was a little anxious, he knew that this thing was not easy to sell, so he deliberately pulled it all over and over and pulled it to the Quenching Bone Pill, but he didn't expect that no one would buy it.
In fact, this thing has been sold many times, and it has been backlogged in the store for several years, and the shopkeeper specially instructed that if it can't be sold while taking advantage of the good opportunity of a large number of monks to Chucheng, the position of this auctioneer will be replaced.
The auctioneer was so anxious that he sweated, and repeatedly said the wonders of the marrow flower, but there was still no reaction in the field, and just when he was about to accept his fate, a few crisp bells rang from the private seat on the second floor.
Song Zhaoting watched Chu Xiaoyue shake Jin Ling, and asked puzzledly, "You have taken a fancy to the seed of this marrow flower?"
This thing is really chicken to others, but it is different for Chu Xiaoyue.
Although it usually takes 300 years to grow, she has red earth!
And, more importantly, she knows how to make the Quenching Bone Pill!
In fact, the method of refining is very simple, that is, to add marrow flowers to Gubendan, and the quality of the medicine depends on the quality of Gubendan, that is to say, in the case that she already has Gubendan, if she can get the marrow flower, maybe she will have the opportunity to fuse the Quenching Bone Pill!
That's it, she won't tell anyone else.
"After procrastinating for a long time, I paid him to rest for a while. ”
Song Zhaoting heard her say this, smiled and shook his head, eight hundred spirit stones is not a small number for a monk in an ordinary family, but he is the eldest son of the Song family, so he naturally knows that this amount of money is nothing to the eldest lady of the Chu family.
Zhao Minbai is also only a child, impatient with this auctioneer, and wants him to start the auction quickly.
At this time, the three seeds have been sent by the maid, and the next round of auctions downstairs has begun.
The auction continued, the next few were all spiritual weapons, Chu Xiaoyue was not interested, the shopkeeper may have seen that Chu Xiaoyue bought seeds, and the little girl was interested in flowers and plants, so he asked the maid to send a few small boxes, all of which were elixir seeds, Chu Xiaoyue accepted them all, and only ordered Lan Zhi to give the reward.
"The next lot is the Xuanjie Shangpin's Dingyan Dan, everyone knows about the Dingyan Dan very well, so I won't say much about it below, just one sentence, this is the Xuanjie's high-grade Dingyan Dan. Prices start at fifteen hundred spirit stones, please bid. ”
Dingyan Dan is indeed not unusual, everyone knows the effect, and even the auctioneer is too lazy to say it.
However, this kind of thing that everyone knows may not be able to be owned by everyone, most of the monks in ordinary families can come into contact with the Yellow Rank Pills, and in the family, most of the Xuan Rank Pills are in the hands of the Xuan Branch and the Elders, and a few will be distributed to the outstanding children of the side branches.
This kind of thing is only useful for the face, and it has no effect on cultivation, and the already arrogant alchemists have no interest in studying the Dingyan Pill, and the Dingyan Pill that can practice the lower grade of the Xuan rank is very rare.
At the same time, for the female monks of the family, the Xuan-rank Lower-grade Fixing Pill can only maintain a five-hundred-year-old appearance, which is not applicable at all to the lifespan of thousands of years that their cultivation has been profound.
Generally speaking, a monk can live to be a thousand years old, if he takes the Xuanjie Dingyan Pill when he is three hundred years old, the medicinal power can only be maintained until he is eight hundred years old, and in the next two hundred years, his face will age very quickly, but in a few years, he will become middle-aged.
In the world, who can build a foundation at the age of 300, who doesn't think that he will definitely get married?
And after building the foundation, the first important thing is to find a high-grade Dingyan Dan!
However, there are very few alchemists who can practice the Xuan-level Dingyan Pill, and refining one consumes a lot of time and energy, which is extremely rare. Therefore, among the female cultivators of the family, it is not uncommon for Yan Dan to fight for the sake of the Xuan Rank Upper Grade.
As soon as Zhao Minbai heard the words Xuanjie Shangpin Ding Yan Dan, his eyes were straight, and his heart said that the great ancestor asked me to buy a gift, isn't this the most suitable thing!
Immediately, he was overjoyed, but before he could speak, he heard the bell ringing in his ear, and Chu Xiaoyue's white and tender little hand had already shaken Jin Ling up.
When the auctioneer heard the bell, he knew that it was the customer who had just bought the seeds of the marrow flower who had made a bid, and although he was grateful in his heart that this person had helped him a lot by buying the marrow flower, he could not change the rules of the auction.
"There are 1,500 spirit stones from distinguished guests, are there any guests who want to bid?"
"One thousand eight. ”
"Two thousand. ”
"Two thousand one. ”
......
The bidding downstairs was one after another, and it can be seen that the Dingyan Dan of the upper grade of the Xuan Rank is still very popular.
After a while, the price of three thousand spirit stones had already been called downstairs.
From the time Chu Xiaoyue shook Jin Ling, the shopkeeper knew that this was the eldest lady who was interested in this thing, and hurriedly went to the private seat.
"Shopkeeper, how much does this pill usually cost?"
The shopkeeper heard Chu Xiaoyue ask this, knowing that she was young, so she naturally didn't understand the market, but she didn't dare to talk nonsense, and said honestly, "The last time it appeared in the auction circle was more than a hundred years ago, when it was sold for three thousand five hundred spirit stones, and now there has been no outflow of this thing for so long, this time, I am afraid that the price will be higher than last time." ”
Chu Xiaoyue felt that what he said was also reasonable, so she didn't shake Jin Ling at the moment, and only said a few words to Lan Zhi, who went downstairs in response, stood in the venue on the first floor, and said loudly, "Five thousand spirit stones." ”
Well, it's a little higher than three thousand five, which is suitable.
