Chapter 407: Spirit Stone
Because of the Heavenly Infant Grass, the Demon Cave has an extraordinary status in the mortal world of Zhongshan Continent. Every fifteen years, a large number of mortals with dreams of cultivating truth come here to seek immortal fate with their lives. Over time, a unique business district has been formed under the Earth Demon Cave, which has become the largest spiritual distribution center in the Zhongshan Continent.
Xia Qiusheng and Uncle Lin just wanted to open the store at the foot of the Earth Demon Cave, and there were still two months before the Earth Demon Cave opened, and the spiritual trade was the most popular period.
Ye Zitong took out the Qiankun bag and poured the things on the table, and Xia Qiusheng took out a Yunling disk and shone it on the things. The Soul Disc is a tool for detecting spiritual objects, which can not only detect the attributes of spiritual objects, but also identify basic cultivation items.
"Well, this is indeed a low-grade spirit stone, and there is no problem with these three pills, what are you going to do with these things?" Xia Qiusheng asked.
"The elixir is hard to find, if you keep it and use it for your family, I want to take out some of these spirit stones and use them to buy some spiritual things, and save the rest."
Xia Qiusheng nodded, "I have inquired about these three pills, the detoxification pill is not very commonly used, but the health pill and the hui spirit pill are the pills that are commonly prepared by monks in the qi refining period, ordinary mortals can also take it to dispel illness and prolong life, your uncle's illness can be tried with the health pill." ”
Ye Zitong sighed and put the pill back into the Qiankun bag. My uncle's family didn't know the details of her, but they only knew that she was doing well on the Demon Peak now. Ye Zitong planned to open the furnace for alchemy after a while, and then mix the health pill into the pill he had refined for his aunt to take. Ye Zitong didn't want her uncle's family to know too much, so they didn't have to worry about her.
"What do you need?" Qiusheng is going to go to the Earth Demon Cave in a few days. Let him collect them for you. Uncle Lin asked.
"I can't figure it out for a while, let's get a few spirit tools to defend myself, I want a few sets of formations. I want to arrange some defensive formations in the courtyard and the medicine garden and the three places where I live. Although there are signs of inner disciples hanging in these three places, there are always some people who are bold enough to prevent them from sneaking in. ”
Xia Qiusheng pondered for a moment and said, "The spirit object formation is only afraid that it can't prevent the monks, after all, the spiritual power of the spirit object is small, and it can only guard against those ordinary miscellaneous servants. ”
"I've thought about that. It's okay to use the medicine garden and the alchemy room, just use the ordinary spiritual object formation, and I want to use the formation of the cultivation realm in the courtyard where I live. Although I can't arrange it myself, I can ask Steward Sun to help me get it. Ye Zitong said, "The formation of the Medicine Garden and the Danfang is best able to leave a mark on the intruder unknowingly. Then they will definitely be afraid. Although the spirit object formation couldn't stop them. But they have to worry about being found out by me and settling accounts with them afterwards, so that those who want to sneak in in the future will definitely have to think more. ”
Xia Qiusheng pondered for a while and said, "This idea is good, since the formation can't play a blocking role, then simply focus on warnings." Such a spiritual creature. It's better to find wood to book, he has a lot of ideas, and he will definitely be able to make something that you are satisfied with. And also. If you want to buy a formation in the cultivation realm, you have to use these spirit stones. It is estimated that the price will not be cheap either. ”
Ye Zitong pushed the spirit stones forward to Xia Qiusheng, "You can take all these spirit stones, if it's not enough, then buy the others first, I have a lot of money every month, and you can save it slowly." Brother Xia is in charge of buying it for me, if there are many spirit stones, then exchange for some spirit beads and spirit sand, and in the future, there will be no shortage of these things that supplement spiritual power. ”
Uncle Lin looked at Ye Zitong and Xia Qiusheng discussing with me word by word, and his heart suddenly became sour, how old is Ye Zitong to become so sensible, where is he still like a child in speech and behavior, if the second brother and wife have not had an accident, Ye Zitong does not have to be frightened at a young age, and make people worse.
Uncle Lin touched Ye Zitong's head, and said with a smile, "This time, the biggest business that our store has received is Ye Zitong's." ”
Xia Qiusheng also smiled, "Isn't it, dozens of low-grade spirit stones, this is a priceless thing, and it is a big deal if it is placed in the Earth Demon Cave, and a low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 20,000 spirit beads on the black market over there, which is still the average price." ”
Ye Zitong was also very happy in her heart, no matter what, they were also a little capital, these spirit stones were useless for her to cultivate the Women's Sutra, even if they were sold, it would be nothing, "Uncle, Brother Xia, you just have to use these spirit stones with confidence, the spirit stones are dead, and they are only valuable if they are used, we can only use spiritual objects now, but the spirit beads are more useful to us, get some powerful spiritual objects, strengthen the strength of our family, and others will not dare to bully us." ”
Xia Qiusheng took out a Qiankun bag and put away the spirit stone, "The two newly hired body cultivators in the shop will come over later, and Ye Zitong will meet them together." ”
There is a type of cultivator in the cultivation realm who enters the Tao by refining the body, which is called physical cultivation, and the physical cultivation hired by Xia Qiusheng is a person who belongs to the mortal realm physical cultivation alliance of the Zhongshan Continent.
In this cultivation, mortal monks coexist for millions of years, mortals rely on monks, monks come from mortals, and after a long period of development, the social system is quite perfect. In the mortal world, there are several major organizations that manage the monks who have entered the world, and the monks who have no hope of enlightenment retreat to the mortal world must be under the management of these organizations, and they must not act arbitrarily in the mortal world, and if there are monks who do anything wrong, they will be hunted down and killed by these organizations.
Therefore, although the monks do not take mortals in their eyes here, there are very few cases of monks slaughtering mortals, and it is precisely because of this that although the elders before the rain have some plans against the Lin family, they dare not blatantly imprison Ye Zitong.
These organizations also provide for the employment of monks, who are registered with a background that can be checked, and it is more safe and secure for the noble merchants of the mortal world to hire these monks. Xia Qiusheng wanted to take a large number of spiritual objects to the Earth Demon Cave to open a shop in a few days, so he hired two monks from the Physical Cultivation Alliance as bodyguards in advance.
The two body cultivators hired by Xia Qiusheng are both middle-aged monks at the third level of qi refining, generally speaking, most of the monks who join the alliance to make a living in the mortal world are below the fourth layer of qi refining, and the monks of the third layer of qi refining are considered to be the top selection.
Ye Zitong followed behind Uncle Lin to look at the two body cultivators, and felt that the body cultivation was still different from what she had imagined before, and it was not as burly and strong as she thought. One of these two practitioners uses a sword and the other uses a sword. Their weapons were behind their backs. Both of them are dressed in middle-aged clothes, dressed in plain clothes, and they look quite fairy at a glance.
Ye Zitong compared these two with the monks on the Demon Peak. These two cultivators felt more intimate, probably because they often walked in the mortal realm. And the biggest difference between them and the monks on the mountain is probably weapons, on the Demon Peak, Ye Zitong has never seen a monk carrying a weapon on his back, this is probably the difference between physical cultivation and ordinary monks.
The spirit stones were all taken away by Xia Qiusheng, and Ye Zitong began to refine the pill in order to give it to his aunt as soon as possible. In the past, Lin Mu was alchemy, and she was just a handful. She hadn't done the main operation before, so she planned to consult the books first and be fully prepared before she started. After all, the medicinal materials for alchemy all cost money.
Ye Zitong has already planted new medicinal herbs in the medicine garden, but these medicinal herbs are too young and have insufficient medicinal properties. She tried to use the fairy rain dew left to her by Mother Lin to give birth to medicinal herbs, but unfortunately the ratio was too difficult to master. Several attempts failed. A lot of medicinal herbs and fairy rain dew were wasted.
Ye Zitong felt sorry for the fairy rain dew, which was a little less, so she didn't use the fairy rain dew to give birth to medicinal materials. She followed the example of Mother Lin and hung many porcelain bottles in the medicine garden to collect the essence of plants and trees. It's just that Ye Zitong doesn't have a spirit bead now, so he can't start the collection array, and the inside of the porcelain bottle is still empty. Without a spirit bead, the water array in the corner could not be activated. Some rare herbs can't be planted yet, and Ye Zitong is now looking forward to Xia Qiusheng's return every day.
Now. Ye Zitong rushed down the mountain every morning to practice with Tingmei in the demon world, and after the morning exercise, she was crazy to read, she borrowed a lot of books on herbology and alchemy from the sect, and prepared to read them before Xia Qiusheng came back.
Ye Zitong sat cross-legged in the pile of books on a small hill, with books in his left hand and notes in his right hand, paying attention and paying attention. Mother Lin had also taught her this knowledge before, but Ye Zitong was young, so Mother Lin only picked some simple and basic things to teach her, and now Ye Zitong always has the shadow of life and death in her heart, under the influence of this, she urgently needs a lot of knowledge to strengthen herself.
Ye Zitong's study has reached the point of forgetting to sleep and eat, but fortunately, when she is tired, she meditates on the spot and runs the Women's Sutra, and after a few weeks, she is full of energy again. Sometimes Ye Zitong also holds a thick book when he goes to eat, reading it while eating, and often gets the soup on his face without knowing it. Whether it is walking or going to the toilet, Ye Zitong also keeps his hands on his books, and he has the strength to prepare for the college entrance examination in his previous life.
Ye Zitong tirelessly absorbed new knowledge, and the rest of the sect looked at her with a sense of sympathy in their hearts, and gradually gained more praise. After Tingmei finished practicing on weekdays, she would also accompany Ye Zitong and help her sort out her notes or something. Lin Shuang learned how to make soup with her aunt, and stewed soup for Ye Zitong every day.
A month passed in a flash, Ye Zitong's life was full, he was idle from morning to night, and his height seemed to have grown a little taller, Xia Qiusheng returned from the Earth Demon Cave with four body cultivators.
Xia Qiusheng gained a lot this time, in addition to the two physical cultivators hired at the beginning, he hired six more physical cultivators in the Earth Demon Cave, and four stayed in the Earth Demon Cave to guard the newly opened shop.
Xia Qiusheng was able to hire so many monks thanks to Ye Zitong's spirit stones, in the mortal world, the imperial court stipulated that a low-grade spirit stone could be exchanged for 10,000 spirit beads, but the spiritual energy in the spirit stone could be absorbed by the monks, and the spiritual power of the spirit beads could only act on spiritual objects and could not be absorbed by the monks, which made the spirit stones more valuable for monks. In private transactions, it is not surprising that the exchange of spirit stones and spirit beads can sometimes reach five or six times that stipulated by the imperial court.
Xia Qiusheng hired the physical cultivator to settle directly with the spirit stone, and the monks of the physical cultivation alliance were naturally willing to make a deal with Xia Qiusheng. With the spirit stone as the base, Xia Qiusheng's trip to the east not only gained a reputation in the area of the Earth Demon Cave, but also his long-sleeved and good dancing, which has a relationship with all organizations.
Xia Qiusheng put a bronze brand on the table, and a big "body" word was engraved in the center of the brand, "This body cultivation alliance divides the guests into levels, and only when they reach a certain credit level will they rise, I am only a bronze customer now, and I will have more dealings with them in the future, and the treatment will be better if the level is raised." ”
Ye Zitong put down the book in his hand, picked up the sign on the table and looked at it, it's really amazing, isn't this the VIP system.
Xia Qiusheng took out ten Qiankun bags and handed them to Ye Zitong, "Here are 100,000 spirit beads, exchanged for three lower-grade spirit stones", and then took out a Qiankun bag, "This is the spiritual qi defense formation purchased according to your request, this time I happened to meet a monk who practiced formations, and he recommended three sets of formations, only fifty lower-grade spirit stones in total, I bought them all, and the method of use is written in the book in the bag."
Then, Xia Qiusheng took out two more Qiankun bags, "Here are some spiritual tools and spiritual objects, these things are sold in the Earth Demon Cave and are nearly half cheaper than outside, I bought you more than a hundred spiritual tools, a total of more than thirty spiritual objects, a total of ten lower grade spirit stones." As for the spirit object-type defensive formation you want, I have already told Mu Tou before, he should be almost done, I will go to him tomorrow. ”
Ye Zitong opened the Qiankun bag with glowing eyes, and checked the past one by one, in addition to the items, there were also several books in the bag.
"Those books are all basic readings, most of them introduce the use of spiritual objects, you rarely used spiritual objects before, with these books as a reference, it is easier to master the skills of using these spiritual objects," Xia Qiusheng continued, "Ye Zitong, Brother Xia discussed one thing with you, this trip to the Earth Demon Cave, in addition to buying you things and using spirit stones, I used other spirit stones to buy some spiritual objects needed by the store, plus the money that was prepaid to several monks, there is not much spirit stone left for me last time."
I thought, these spirit stones are still afraid of being stolen, you can't use them now, it's better to use them as principal to participate in our store, and the dividends of the shop will always have your share in the future, if you don't want to participate in the shares, just wait for a while, Brother Xia exchanged the spirit stones and returned them to you. ”
Ye Zitong shook his head, took out a Qiankun bag and put it in front of Xia Qiusheng, "Brother Xia, those spirit stones can be counted as my shares, here is my money this month, except for the two pieces for Steward Sun, the remaining ninety-eight pieces are here." Our shop has just opened, and the trading of spiritual objects in the Earth Demon Cave is the most popular period, and these spirit stones will also be used by you, and they will be counted in the shares. ”
After these days of understanding, Ye Zitong knew the value of these spirit stones in the cultivation realm, but she really couldn't use the spirit stones now, even if she kept them for the future, she would have to wait for fifteen years later to obtain the spirit root before she could use them. Instead of just leaving it there, take it out and exchange it for something that will help you and your family.
And with these spirit stones, the uncle and their business will be much easier, and they can help them Ye Zitong is willing from the bottom of his heart. There are two most important things for her now, one is to strengthen herself, and the other is the safety of her relatives.
Xia Qiusheng smiled and touched Ye Zitong's head, "You kid, at a young age, you are generous, don't worry, with your big brother Xia, I promise that the dividend will be doubled in the future." Also, you have to leave a few pieces for yourself, and those three aura defense arrays need spirit stones to activate. ”
When Ye Zitong left the Lin Mansion, she tied her waist and carried several Qiankun bags in her hands, and Tingmei also helped her take several of them, and sent her all the way to the side of the Demon Peak. In the end, Ye Zitong left behind twenty lower-grade spirit stones, which were enough for her to activate the newly purchased formation. (To be continued......)
