9. The first to buy and bid for the lotus into the mirror to know the mirror edge of the lake
Chapter 8: The first to buy and bid for the lotus, as soon as you enter the mirror to know the mirror edge lake
A few days later, Mo Xuan came to visit and said with a smile: "Senior sister's cultivation has stabilized a lot. ”
"I haven't deliberately cultivated in the past few days, just watching the mountains and listening to the water, and the realm has inexplicably stabilized a lot." Qin Yue also smiled and said: "Senior brother once said that senior sister I have excellent talent and will be able to build a foundation before the age of twenty." Now I am not yet twenty-one years old, and I can barely accept the good words of my senior brother. ”
Mo Xuan laughed when he heard this. Then he said mysteriously: "Senior sister, do you know that another treasure land has been opened recently?" ”
"Of course I don't know." Seeing Mo Xuan's mysterious face, "What's so strange?" ”
"The name of this treasure is called 'Cangjing', it is opened three times in every thousand years, one is the foundation building period monks can enter, one is the Yuan infant period monks can enter, one is the Xiandu period monks can enter, each time it is opened for fifty years, and there are clouds in the sky every day when it is almost opened. There are countless treasures in it. Although a large number of monks have fallen to the other side every time, the number of monks who have stepped into the treasure hunt has increased instead of decreasing. ”
Wealth and danger are sought. Qin Yue expressed understanding.
"Yesterday I went down the mountain and heard that the mirror has already shown the clouds, and it will be opened in more than ten days." Glancing at Qin Yue, "This time, only foundation building period monks can enter." ”
Qin Yue's heart moved.
Yesterday, she went to meet Qin Chang, and Qin Chang said that she should not specialize in spiritual power now, but should cultivate spiritual power, divine sense, and Dao heart together. She asked about the method of cultivating divine consciousness, which was similar to the method of entering the Dao at the beginning, and it was all on her own to comprehend. When asked what is meant by "Dao Heart", Qin Chang said: "One heart to the Tao and unswerving determination is the Dao heart." Cultivating immortals, you must first shape your Dao heart, and you must not take the risk of cultivating and sloppy knots. ”
Seeing that Qin Yue was puzzled, he said again: "There are many dangers in the knot. When Jindan is about to be completed, there will be a fantasy into a dream, and if you are not careful, you will get lost here, and all your previous efforts will be wasted. If you pass the illusion realm, Jindan will become a great success, and you will still need to suffer three thunder tribulations. Therefore, it is necessary to stabilize the Dao heart first, and then have all the preparations to deal with the thunder tribulation, before you can get married. ”
Qin Yue thus knew that the top priority was to stabilize the Dao heart. It has always been a firm heart for seeking the Tao, and the immortal cultivators have all traveled out to understand, and at this time, I heard that there is a treasure "Cangjing" opened, and Qin Yue naturally gave birth to the idea of going to take a look.
After hearing this, Mu Yu wanted to go with Qin Yue, but Qin Yue agreed when he saw that he was also cultivating in the foundation building period. There was a realm difference between refining qi and building a foundation, and Qin Yue felt that the flying sword he used before was not very good now, so he asked Mu Yu: "Do you want to go to the deacon hall with me to pick up a convenient Taoist weapon?" ”
Mu Yu's eyes rolled: "The Taoist tools in the deacon's hall are stereotyped and can be used by everyone." Why don't we go to the market outside the mountain gate? ”
Qin Yue is a fun-loving person, how can there be any reason to disagree? The two of them then set off happily.
Out of the mountain gate of Lingyu Sect, I turned around from the foot of the mountain, and I arrived at the place. The so-called bazaar is actually a deep alley, with all kinds of merchants selling on both sides, such as pills and spiritual herbs, jade runes, Taoist formations, and so on. Qin Yue looked at it strangely, and felt that there was everything in front of him, and it was full of dazzling.
No one in the sect would look for Qin Yue to provoke, but this place is different. Mu Yu couldn't help but advise: "If my sister meets someone who behaves disrespectfully and speaks wildly, just ignore it." There are rules in the bazaar that prohibit monks from fighting. ”
Qin Yue replied with a smile: "Well, I know." ”
The two of them watched as they walked, Qin Yue saw that everything was fresh, and along the way she bought a lot of spirit grasses that she thought looked strange, and delicately painted talismans. Mu Yu followed behind her to settle the bill, when she really felt sorry for this large amount of spirit stones given to others - they were all very ordinary things, she only had to say when she returned to the sect, and someone had collected them and sent them to the cave.
There was a place where many monks gathered on the road ahead, and Qin Yue asked a shopkeeper, "Why is it so lively over there?" ”
The shopkeeper replied: "I don't know, there is a buy there today, and it will start in two quarters of an hour." ”
"What do you mean by buying?"
The shopkeeper explained again, Qin Yue felt like a modern auction, and suddenly became interested, and pulled Mu Yu: "Let's go, go and have a look." ”
Approaching the buying venue, he saw that the guard at the door was a little monk of the fifth level of qi refining. The little friar stepped forward and beckoned to the two: "Do you want to bid separately?" ”
Qin Yue looked at Mu Yu, and Mu Yu shook his head. Qin Yue said: "No need. ”
The little friar said, "I wonder if you want to sit up, middle, or down?" There are twenty spirit stones on the upper seat, ten spirit stones on the middle seat, and five spirit stones on the lower seat. ”
And this rule? Qin Yue said: "Then the two of them will take a seat." ”
Mu Yu took out forty spirit stones, paid a deposit of one hundred spirit stones, and took a sign that said "nine". The little monk welcomed them to the second floor of the meeting, offered them spiritual tea with a respectful expression, and asked them what else they had to say.
Qin Yue: "I want to eat melon seeds." ”
Muyu: "......"
Friar: "......"
Qin Yue, who hadn't eaten the melon seeds, looked around. There is a booth on the first floor, and the closest to the booth is the middle seat, and the farther away from the booth is the lower seat. The second floor is all upper seats, and the place is spacious, so you can watch the every move of everyone downstairs. Unlike modern auctions, where there are previews, everything that is "bought" here is kept secret.
Even so, it didn't take long for the downstairs to be full of people, and then a young woman stood on the booth, first saluted everyone, called herself Shui Yao, and then said something to welcome all Taoist friends to come. Qin Yue couldn't see Shui Yao's cultivation, maybe it was because her cultivation was not as high as her, or maybe this Shui Yao was just a mortal.
"The first thing I bought today was a Tsukidan." Shui Yao opened, and then began to introduce carefully, "Zhuji Dan is necessary for foundation building, which can greatly increase the probability of foundation building. The refining process is complicated, and the sect generally does not issue it, and there is no chance to see it for casual cultivation. It is really a good thing for personal use, a good gift, and everyone here can buy it. The starting price is fifty spirit stones, and the price increase is ten spirit stones. ”
Qin Yue was deeply impressed by Shui Yao's skillful sales words, and soon saw that people kept holding signs downstairs. There should be some kind of prohibition in the field, only its signs can be seen, not its appearance.
Shui Yao kept saying the price: "Fifty starts at the price, sixty, seventy, eighty ......"
The quotations continued one after another, and soon this Tsukidan was sold at the price of two hundred and sixty spirit stones. This was followed by a small formation on display. Qin Yue's eyes flashed, and he asked Mu Yu on the side: "Teleportation array...... Also a formation? ”
Mu Yu replied: "Yes." However, the formation is extremely mysterious, and there are differences in a slight increase and a slight decrease. There are two places involved in the teleportation array, and there are many places to reason about the calculus. Only one sect in Beichuan, the Xuandao Sect, has a teleportation array, and he doesn't know where it leads. ”
Qin Yue was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this time, Shui Yao exhibited another demon beast: "This is a three-grade snow lonely bird, born in the sea area, and it is extremely difficult to hunt. Meat can increase cultivation, and blood can be used to refine magic weapons. The starting price is 400 spirit stones, and the price increase is 100 spirit stones. ”
Everyone began to bid, and in a blink of an eye, the price rose to 1,000 spirit stones, and no one bid for a while. Mu Yu suddenly shouted, "One thousand two." ”
No one robbed Mu Yu either. Shui Yao fell the hammer, and this snow lonely bird was returned to Muyu.
Qin Yue touched his chin: "You have a lot of spirit stones. She still remembered that Mu Yu stayed in her cave mansion to work as a coolie for fifteen spirit stones a month.
Mu Yu said: "Because I saved my sister last time, I got two thousand spirit stones." ”
Qin Yue said to herself: "I'm worth two birds......"
The rest is nothing spectacular. Qin Yue looked at it with interest for a while, but he was a little drowsy, and suddenly heard Shui Yao say the words "Nine Turns Wood Lotus".
Her cultivation method is called "Nine Turns of Wood Jue", is this just a coincidence, or is it really related? Qin Yue groaned and asked, "How many spirit stones do I have?" ”
"After my sister successfully built the foundation, Master Mo'an and Master Mo Xuan both sent a lot of pill spirit stones as congratulatory ceremonies, plus the ones distributed by the sect on weekdays, not to mention tens of thousands."
Qin Yue nodded, and just as he heard Shui Yao say, "The starting price is one thousand spirit stones, and the price increase is one hundred spirit stones." ”
Qin Yue immediately raised his card: "Two thousand." ”
The audience fell silent, Shui Yao had never seen such a direct doubling, but she was stunned for a moment and reacted: "No. 9 Daoist Friend bid two thousand, is there anything higher here!" Two thousand spirit stones at a time......"
At this time, another person held up a sign, and Shui Yao said: "Two thousand and one hundred spirit stones." ”
"Four thousand." Qin Yue's face did not change.
"Five thousand." It was a man's voice, and it should be the person who had just raised the sign.
"Eight thousand." Qin Yue was a little anxious.
Fortunately, that person saw that Qin Yue was bound to win, and did not continue to respond. Qin Yue looked at the booth seriously and saw a wooden lotus, which was a Taoist vessel, the size of an ordinary lotus, faintly glowing with brilliance.
Qin Yue was satisfied, and planned to go back to the cave mansion to sleep for a while. Mu Yu said: "There will be the finale after a while, my sister won't look at it for a while?" ”
Qin Yue said: "There are not enough spirit stones, forget it." How sad it would be if you really fancy it and can't afford it. ”
Mu Yu thought about it too. The two took a beast and a lotus and left. Mu Yu never killed the snow lonely bird and ate it, but signed a spirit beast contract with it and brought it back to raise. It's not impossible to do this - the Snow Lonely Bird belongs to the water system, and Muyu has a water spirit root, and the two just complement each other.
Qin Yue slept beautifully, and after waking up, he put the Nine Turns Wood Lotus and the "Nine Turns Wood Jue" together to study, and did not find any connection between the two. However, Mu Lian itself made Qin Yue very happy: it could not only attack, but also defend, and it could also be magnified several times to sit and fly under him. It perfectly replaces the role of the previous flying sword.
After a few more days, after asking the location of Cangjing, Qin Yue and Mu Yu set off. Mu Yu has a special flying device, which is a cloud, and people stand on the cloud to fly. Qin Yue took a ride all the way to "Shun Fengyun", looking up at the thousands of stacks of clouds, overlooking the rivers and mountains, and even having the "auspicious clouds" under his feet, which was quite a sense of ascending to the immortals.
When it came to the entrance of the Cangjing, the Cangjing had not yet been opened. There were monks around who sold Cangjing maps, and Qin Yue and Mu Yu bought them. Qin Yue also bought a few jade slips: "Cangjing Strange Treasure Record", "Cangjing Spirit Grass Daquan", "Cangjing Demon Beast Illustrated Book", ...... Be prepared to prevent the recurrence of accidental ingestion of Xuanguo.
The big stone standing on the side is engraved with the two big characters of "Cangjing", which are simple and vicissitudes, and Qin Yue said: "Cangjing...... I thought it was the 'realm' of the realm, but I didn't expect it to be the 'mirror' of the mirror. ”
The person on the side responded: "Because there is a lake in it, called Mirror Lake, the reflection is clear, like a mirror." Therefore, this place is not called 'Cangjing', but 'Cangjing'. ”
Qin Yue turned his head and saw that it was a simple-looking big brother who spoke. Mirror Lake ...... Sounds interesting. Qin Yue said: "Then I'm going to take a look." ”
"No, that place is very weird, don't take any chances."
This eldest brother was a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, and Qin Yue saw that he had a kind face, so he asked him about the situation of Cangjing, and couldn't help frowning after hearing it.
It turns out that after entering the Cangjing, everyone will be randomly teleported to a certain place in the Cangjing. There may be natural treasures, or there are groups of demon beasts, it all depends on the fate of each person. It's just that Qin Yue originally wanted to walk with Mu Yu, so I was afraid that I would have to separate. The two agreed that they would return to the sect separately after leaving the Cangjing.
