Chapter Twenty-Five: The Spirit Stone Appears
Zhu Guilan's death did not make too many waves in Haizhou No. 1 Middle School, but gradually sank into the sea, so the whole school calmed down in the last month before the college entrance examination, and a group of senior high school students also entered a nervous state of preparation for the exam.

The only one who doesn't worry about the college entrance examination is Zhang Daniu, but his life is more ordinary, except for going to school, he is practicing at home, and occasionally going out for a walk, but he hasn't found much.
What made him happy was that with the assistance of Xue Linghua, his cultivation had really succeeded in breaking through to the second layer of Qi Gathering, and it was not far from the third layer of Qi Gathering.
Time flies, whether everyone wants to or not, the college entrance examination is still coming as scheduled, and everyone enters the examination room with apprehension, carefully writing the papers.
On the first day, the test was Chinese and mathematics, and Zhang Daniu handed in the papers in advance and left, as always, without even thinking about checking.
The evening time seems to be very long, the red glow is flying, the clouds are idle, the birds are singing, the green trees are swaggering, Zhang Daniu is bathed in the sunset, walking on the wide road, and his heart is very leisurely.
This kind of life is not bad, there is no fighting and killing in the cultivation realm, but it is a pity that the life span of mortals is too short, and the aura here is too thin, otherwise he really wants to stay on the earth for a lifetime.
"Oops, it's been getting more and more decadent lately, how can I have such a thought? As a qualified cultivator, even if you don't get eternal life, you have to pursue immortality. No, when my cultivation is higher, I must find out if there is a way to return to the cultivation realm, I don't want to die of old age on this earth for decades. ”
Zhang Daniu patted his head, thinking about whether to go home first or find a place to eat first, but saw three shining stones on the roadside stall.
"That's ...... Spirit Stone! I didn't expect the earth to see the aura as well. Zhang Daniu rushed towards the stall without thinking.
The spirit stones are generally regular, mainly white, and the appearance is not much different from limestone, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish, but it contains spiritual power that ordinary people can't see at all, and any cultivator can distinguish it at a glance, so Zhang Daniu will be so excited when he sees the three spirit stones.
The stall was set up by an old man of fifty or sixty years old, without any cultivation, with a pair of reading glasses, the whole person looked a little sloppy, and he didn't know how the three spirit stones were obtained.
In addition to the three spirit stones, the stalls are full of ordinary goods, and it should even be said that they are real stalls, and there is a sign standing next to them, which roughly says that three pieces of ten yuan can be picked at will.
The old man seemed to see that Zhang Daniu was very interested in the three spirit stones, so he lifted his glasses, cleared his throat and said: "This little brother, you really have a vision, these three stones, the origin is not ordinary, I brought it back from the southwest after a lot of hardship, you don't know, I don't know how many people grabbed their heads for these three stones." ”
"Oh." Zhang Daniu nodded, showing that he didn't take it seriously at all.
The old man saw that Zhang Daniu didn't believe it, so he continued to boast: "Two days ago, I set up a stall elsewhere, and someone bought it from me at a sky-high price, but I didn't sell it to them, na...... Today, I see that you and I are also quite fateful, so it is better to sell these three divine stones to you for a hundred yuan. ”
"Didn't you say that you could pick three pieces for ten dollars?" Zhang Daniu pointed to the sign on the side suspiciously.
"Alas, that's an ordinary thing, I also told you about these three divine stones, and you see, these three divine stones are still specially taken out by me and put aside to sell, how can it be that kind of shoddy thing can be compared?" The old man seems to really regard those three stones as treasures, a "divine stone" in one mouth.
"There's some truth to what you're saying, but you haven't told me where these three stones came from." Zhang Daniu nodded, although these three are only low-grade spirit stones, it is not too much to sell them for a hundred yuan, if they are placed in the eyes of connoisseurs, I am afraid that they are willing to buy one for 10,000 yuan, so he is too lazy to worry about anything with this old man. Of course, he won't be stupid enough to tell the truth.
"Didn't I just say that? These three stones were brought back from the southwest by me with great difficulty......"
Without waiting for the old man to finish speaking, Zhang Daniu immediately waved his hand and interrupted: "Tell me the truth, otherwise I won't buy it, a hundred yuan is not a small amount of money, and I can't spend it so inexplicably." ”
The old man hesitated for a moment, and then quickly said, "If you don't buy it, won't I lose a lot?" ”
Zhang Daniu didn't think about it, he took out a hundred-yuan bill and handed it to the old man, then put away the three spirit stones by himself, and then said, "Can you talk about it now?" ”
"This kid, the payment is so direct, shouldn't it be fake money?" The old man looked at Zhang Daniu suspiciously, looked and touched in the sunset, and finally determined that the hundred-yuan bill in his hand was real.
Immediately he regretted it again, he knew that the kid in front of him was so rich, so he directly said that it was two hundred, and it was a big loss to sell these three divine stones for one hundred yuan.
"What? Do you want to regret it again? "How could Zhang Daniu not see this old man's thoughts? So he rolled up his sleeves and glared at each other viciously.
Feeling the chill on Zhang Daniu's body, the old man couldn't help but shiver, so he had to tell the origin of these three spirit stones one by one.
It turned out that the southwest region was rich in jade, this old man went to the southwest to gamble on stones, but lost penniless, and when he was about to come back, he encountered a group of people rushing, and these three stones happened to be picked up at the scene of the rush, and he didn't take it seriously at the beginning, and then he saw that the three stones looked like they, so he picked them up and used them to set up stalls.
Perhaps it was a lie that was revealed, but after the old man finished speaking, he didn't dare to stay any longer, and he packed up the things on the stall and left. Zhang Daniu didn't stop it, anyway, he knew almost everything he should know.
"Southwest?" Zhang Daniu frowned, and suddenly remembered many legends in Huaxia, it is said that there is a Qingcheng Mountain in the southwest, where many immortals have been produced, and I don't know if it is true or false.
The old man's later words should be true, in this way, there should be more than these three spirit stones in the southwest region, and where there are spirit stones, maybe they can really find a way to go to the cultivation realm.
No matter what, you must go to the southwest region to have a look, even if you can't find a way to go to the cultivation realm, it is not a problem to find a few spirit stones.
Now the spirit stone is not ordinarily important to his cultivation, with the three spirit stones in his hand, it should not be a problem for him to break through to the fourth layer of qi gathering, but the cultivation in the middle stage of qi gathering is not possible without spirit stones.
"Well, after the exam, first upgrade the cultivation to the fourth layer of Qi Gathering, and then go to the southwest region to have a look." Zhang Daniu muttered, and then walked in the direction of his residence.
The entire college entrance examination was a difficult process for millions of candidates, but for Zhang Daniu, it passed in a flash, and his cultivation also broke through to the third layer of qi gathering on the evening when the college entrance examination ended.
Although the third layer of Qi Gathering was insignificant compared to his previous life in the Qianlong Continent, Zhang Daniu was still very happy, at least this kind of cultivation was still very good in the earth.
In his spare time, he also went to investigate, and there didn't seem to be any cultivators on the earth, at least there were no decent cultivators in Haizhou City, and even people had very little understanding of cultivators. The powerful divine consciousness that suddenly appeared on that day could only be regarded as a special case, and the divine consciousness of that strength was rare even in the cultivation realm.
Of course, there are indeed strange people and strange people on the earth, it is said that there are many ancient martial arts families and ancient martial arts sects in China, but most of those ancient martial arts families and ancient martial arts sects are hidden, even if there are occasional walking in the earthly world, they are very low-key, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find out.
In addition, there are ninjas and supernatural beings abroad, and it is said that those people are also very awesome, and even the world's recognized king of mercenaries is a supernatural person.
However, most of these people with unique skills are very arrogant, and few are willing to work for the government, so there are very few cases of strange or ninja invading Huaxia, and even if there are, they will be secretly killed by those of the Huaxia Guwu family and the Guwu sect.
As for the powerful cultivators who Zhang Daniu wants to know who can fly to the sky and escape to the earth, those who will be worshiped as immortals once they appear, and they have such immortals in ancient times, and they have long been extinct in modern times.
It is conceivable that those dynasties in ancient China really had powerful cultivators, but later they disappeared without a trace without knowing what kind of changes had occurred, and the strong man who had probed him with his divine sense before was still a surviving ancient cultivator, otherwise it would not be so powerful.
Anyway, it is a good thing to break through to the third layer of Qi Gathering, there was a class party after the college entrance examination, and he was too lazy to go, but he was in a good mood, so he decided to go to it.
After the college entrance examination, everyone's fate is almost the same, and then they go their separate ways, so this final party should be a little sad, but Zhang Daniu only saw the joy of relief on the faces of those people, which shows how much the three years of high school study have devastated them.
It seems that the whole class is here, and there are teachers of various subjects, but there is one Liu Ying missing, which is a little surprising. Zhang Daniu inquired and found out that Liu Ying had gone home on the first day of the college entrance examination, as for where Liu Ying's house was, no one seemed to know, anyway, these teachers had never heard of it.
It doesn't matter if he goes home, Zhang Daniu doesn't take it seriously, he sits in his seat and eats and drinks, occasionally toasting. Speaking of which, he doesn't have many friends in the class, so he doesn't need to toast much.
Coincidentally, Su Xueyan was arranged to sit next to Zhang Daniu, and there were many people toasting her, including Chen Chaoxing.
Zhang Daniu found that Chen Chaoxing's heart was beating very fast when he toasted Su Xueyan, and for some reason, he spilled the wine in the cup into the drink in Su Xueyan's cup with a shake of his hand, and the wine glass also slipped to the ground.
Naturally, such a drink couldn't be drunk, Su Xueyan hurriedly poured it and poured a new glass, and Chen Chaoxing also went back and changed a glass of wine, and returned to his seat after drinking, he still glanced at Su Xueyan from time to time, obviously looking like a thief.
