Chapter 9: A Spirit Stone

"Ahhh Xuan Miaoer held her head and turned around, she was envious of people who could read and write, but as a little beggar, she had to be illiterate.

"But, but you can't cultivate immortals if you can't read, what should you do?" Xuan Miao'er flattened her mouth and was extremely aggrieved, "...... No more money! ”

I lowered my voice and called Uncle a few times, but there was no response from the Soul Gathering Bead. Xuan Miao'er thinks should she borrow some silver from Peony and tell her about the spiritual root?

Although she has a cultivation book in her hand, Xuan Miaoer doesn't plan to show it to Peony, although Peony is literate. She believed what the storyteller said,. The son is ruthless, the drama is meaningless, except for the tiger baby who grew up with her, she doesn't trust anyone.

Coupled with Ruan Yu's inexplicable departure, Xuan Miaoer's trust in people was once again overshadowed. Right now, Xuan Miao'er only believes in herself, and she is also for Lin Qing, if she hadn't asked him, she might have sold him a long time ago, and it would be good to make some money.

After tossing for a long time, Xuan Miaoer fell asleep, and when it was dawn, she slept soundly, and when she woke up, it was already three poles in the sun.

"Oops!" When she opened her eyes and saw that it was dawn, she went downstairs to eat after freshening up as fast as she could.

After entangling with the shopkeeper for a long time, the shopkeeper saw that she was still a child, so he asked the shopkeeper to give her a copy of the leftovers in the kitchen, and instructed: "Next time I get up early, after a while, our inn will not care." ”

"Uh-huh, got it. Thank you to the shopkeeper. Xuan Miao'er took this to heart, the reason why she lived here was to have two meals a day, and she no longer had a copper plate on her.

Touching her full stomach, she felt that there was no problem if she didn't eat today. Beggars are like this, they eat enough when they have to eat, so as not to lose their next meal.

Returning to the room, closing the doors and windows tightly, Xuan Miao'er took out the soul bead and called again: "Uncle, uncle, are you awake?" It's dawn. ”

No response.

Xuan Miao'er muttered again: "Uncle, don't sleep, you oversleep and have no food." ”

"Uncle, wake up, I'm running out of food."

……

"Ahem!" Xu was too nagging for her, Lin Qing finally spoke up, "What else can you girl do but eat?" ”

Xuan Miao'er smiled and said, "I will have a lot, what does the uncle want to ask?" ”

Lin Qing was choked for a moment, went straight to the point, and asked, "Tell me about your future plans." ”

Xuan Miaoer said: "Uncle, do you still need to ask about this?" Naturally, it is to cultivate immortals and learn skills, to avenge the tiger baby, oh, but also for the uncle. ”

Lin Qing said: "Have you thought about it?" Stepping into the path of immortality is not just talking, if you don't do well, you will end up dying like me. ”

"Aren't you still in the Soul Gathering Orb? Do I want to pay some room rate? Xuan Miao'er rolled her eyes and said, "Uncle, don't we talk about traveling so far?" Right now, I need the silver to enter the martial arts hall to learn art. ”

"Humph!" Lin Qing snorted coldly and said angrily: "What can you learn from the martial arts hall?" As far as mortal kung fu is concerned, cultivators at the first level of Qi refining can be defeated easily. ”

Xuan Miao'er said disapprerovingly: "Uncle, don't be ambitious, I can grow up safely in the martial arts hall, and the martial arts hall not only teaches people to practice martial arts, but also teaches people to read." If you can understand the books you give, you can better cultivate immortals, right? ”

"You, you're illiterate?" Lin Qing never thought of this, in the cultivation realm, who is illiterate?

Xuan Miao'er grabbed her bangs, her forehead wrinkled deeply, and she said angrily: "What's wrong with being illiterate?" It's normal for me to be a little beggar who can't read! Give it to the spirit stone, I still have to exchange this for silver. ”

Lin Qing didn't speak for a while, "Do you know how much silver a spirit stone can be exchanged for?" ”

"I don't know. But I don't think a thousand taels of silver may be able to buy a spirit stone, just look at the spirit beads, right? ”

"Hmm. In the cultivation realm, gold and silver are not valuable, and ordinary refining materials are just them. But aren't you wasting your good years when you go to the martial arts hall? You're not young, so practice hard while you're young. ”

Lin Qing still didn't agree with Xuan Miao'er's plan, in his opinion, since a spirit stone could be exchanged for a thousand taels of silver, it was a serious matter to find an inn to live in, and quickly draw qi into the body.

Xuan Miao'er smiled and said: "Uncle doesn't know, our city lord's kung fu is high, and he can also step on a sword and fly ......." ”

She recounted the battle she had seen last night, and asked, "Uncle has so many enemies, who are they?" ”

Lin Qing was shocked, "Wuzun? Mo Zhan? Five hundred years ago, he was a legend in the cultivation realm. Unexpectedly, his descendants actually lived in seclusion here, this is the most inconspicuous small city in the Kun Yuan Realm, and the aura is sparse and ordinary. No wonder! ”

"Humph! Uncle knows that practicing martial arts is not useless. Xuan Miao'er suddenly got up.

Lin Qing avoided the important and said lightly: "Mortal martial arts is just to strengthen the body. Mo Wuzun entered the Tao with the body of a mortal, he belonged to the body refining faction, he was a strong person in this area, and his cultivation was comparable to that of Yuanying. However, there is still a difference between alchemy and mortal martial arts. ”

Xuan Miao'er didn't understand, so she just said, "When will you give the spirit stone?" ”

Lin Qing had no choice but to confess, "Didn't you take a ring from me?" That's actually a storage ring, which can hold a lot of things, and there are a lot of spirit stones. It's just that you haven't drawn qi into your body yet, and you can't open the ring, and I can only open it once a month, are you sure you only take one spirit stone? ”

"Rings?" Xuan Miao'er heard the mystery, and immediately turned out the quaint ring and said, "Can you hold things in here?" ”

"Just a spirit stone. You can keep this ring, I will change the style, and I will give it to you after you enter the fourth layer of qi refining. ”

After finishing speaking, Xuan Miaoer felt that the ring in her hand was hot, and when she was about to throw it out, it suddenly became hot. The gemstone ring with the original ancient pattern has become an iron ring, which is as ordinary as a thimble, and it is estimated that no one will pick it up if it is thrown away. She directly strung it with the rope on the jade pei given by Ruan Yu, and the baby had to be carried with her.

Lin Qing said: "In this way, no one will find out that this ring is different, but it is usually a good collection of it." Take the spirit stone and find a trustworthy person to exchange it for silver. Anything else to ask? ”

Xuan Miao'er held the glowing spirit stone and asked, "How do you measure the spirit root of ordinary people?" ”

"There are special tools for testing spiritual roots, or monks above the foundation use spiritual power to probe it. There is no other way. ”

"Can't you cultivate immortals without a spiritual root?"

"Can't! Unless you take the elixir that replenishes the spiritual root, but this kind of elixir is very rare, and once it appears, it will cause the crazy robbery of immortal cultivators. ”

Xuan Miao'er pouted: "It's gone!" ”

Fortunately, she has a spiritual root, and she plans to sell this spiritual stone to Peony, this girl has saved a lot of silver in recent years, and it is good if she can cultivate immortals. As for Snow Lotus, Xuan Miao'er already regarded her as an enemy.

After that, Lin Qing fell into a deep sleep, and the dispute over whether they could enter the martial arts hall ended everywhere.

Xuan Miao'er sneaked into Baihualou again with a spirit stone, Peony was picking up guests, and she could still hear a humming moan at the door. Silence.

"It's called white. Day. Declare. Lewd! "Xuan Miaoer learns and uses the idioms spoken by the storyteller accurately. And she squatted behind the big potted plant at the door and took a nap, and she was used to this kind of behavior of the peony.

Half an hour later, a handsome boy in a brocade robe walked out, and Peony sent him out in disheveled clothes, and reluctantly watched him go upstairs.

As soon as she turned around, Peony's expression changed, and she picked up Xuan Miao'er and walked into the house, "You bad girl actually listens to the root of the wall?" I'm not afraid of corns. ”

Xuan Miao'er shrunk her neck and was carried into the house by her, and hummed, "Got it? I thought you came to me yesterday. ”

"Peony, the tiger baby is dead." Xuan Miao'er frowned and said, "I inquired about it, but I may not come here again in the future." Xiaoyu was also taken away, and I wanted to go to the martial arts hall to learn art. I can sue you what the spirit root is, but you have to spend money to buy my spirit stone. ”

Xuan Miao'er took out the spirit stone, and a small stone cut into a regular diamond crystal shape, exuding a luminous stone, instantly attracted the peony.

She didn't say a word, nodded and said, "Okay, how much silver?" ”
