Chapter 288: Dan Furnace
Gu Yan's brows furrowed, and she looked at the stall owner, "What do you mean by this?" ”
The stall owner took two steps closer, although every stall and storefront here was covered by prohibitions, not worrying about others seeing the scene inside, he still habitually approached, and then said: "Since you practice alchemy, you should know what is the most important thing for an alchemist, right?" ”
Without waiting for Gu Yan to answer, he continued: "That is naturally the Dan furnace, there is no haode Dan furnace, even if the technique is exquisite, it cannot be refined into a peerless good Dan, other book friends read it normally:." I have a Dan furnace here, which is the inheritance of the alchemy master Nanyun Jushi hundreds of years ago, and it has been hidden at home for a long time, the girl is interested, why not come and take a look? ”
Gu Yan's eyes lit up, what the stall owner said was true, after she came to Cangwu, she has been distressed, that is, there is no Dan furnace to take advantage of, because Cangwu's aura is different from Shenzhou and Guixu Sea, originally her habitual Dan furnace is not considered to be a good hand here, but the commonly used one, when she was transmitted, she didn't know weishenme and was damaged, and if she repaired it, she would have to put a lot of effort, so she simply looked for a new one and better, originally Gu Yan wanted to get together the materials first and then do this, I didn't expect to be able to meet here by accident,:.
When the stall owner saw that Gu Yan was interested, he smiled and said, "Since Daoist friends are interested, then come with me." Anyway, this is in the middle of the market, and there will be no danger. ”
Before Gu Yan could speak, Wei Zhaoyi heard that it was a treasure left over from an alchemy master hundreds of years ago, and he was already quite interested and said, "Senior sister, let's go and have a look, anyway, the elders of the major factions are taking care of it here, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to rob us?" After speaking, he dragged Gu Yan over.
This long series of stalls was arranged under a mountain, and the stall owner put away his things and then led the two people backwards. After turning this long mountain range, there is a deep cave behind it, and it is full of light. There is no such thing as a cave. The stall owner said with a smile: "This is where the foundation building monks came, and ordinary Qi refining stage disciples can't see it. You see, on the four walls, there are moonstones. It can be used as a spirit stone for cultivation, but here it is only for decoration. ”
Wei Zhaoyi looked around. Obviously, she felt that her eyes were a little insufficient, Gu Yan didn't care, she said lightly: "The Dan furnace that Daoyou said, can you take it out and see it now?" ”
The stall owner took them to a corner, and then mysteriously took out something from his arms, only holding it in his palm and showing it to Gu Yan.
This Dan furnace is in the shape of a tripod. It is divided into octagonal, with nine holes on it, flashing with glazed brilliance, and a faint fragrance comes. The stall owner smiled: "This is the Dan furnace that Master Nanyun used back then, you smell it, there is still the medicinal fragrance left by him back then, it is a priceless treasure of my family!" ”
Wei Zhaoyi stuck out her tongue, "How much does it cost to do something like this?" ”
The stall owner smiled and said nothing, he stretched out a finger and shook it. Wei Zhaoyi said: "A hundred spirit stones? ”
Gu Yan said with a smile: "This is a relic treasure of the predecessors, how can a hundred yuan be enough, let alone a thousand yuan?" ”
The stall owner daxiao said: "Or a female Taoist friend, you have a vision, this Dan furnace was used by Master Nanyun in the early days of foundation building." It's a bit of a waste for high-level monks to use it, I saw that you have a talent in alchemy, and you can't bear to waste it, so you took it out, so naturally I have to make a little money. ”
Wei Zhaoyi stuck out her tongue, she thought that she didn't have such a big net worth, a thousand spirit stones, even if her parents had accumulated it for so many years, maybe it wasn't half of this amount.
Gu Yan said lightly at this time: "I'm afraid it's not just a little profit, I don't know how much you can earn from it, is it three hundred times, or five hundred times?" ”
The stall owner heard that something was wrong, and he was stunned: "What do you mean, I don't understand......" At this time, Gu Yan raised his hand, and his five fingers changed shape rapidly in the air, and a meteor-like light flashed in the air, and eight moonstones fell into her hand, and then the cave suddenly became dim, it turned out to be just an ordinary barren cave. Gu Yan said with a smile: "Eight moonstones are enough to set up a small Xuanji Illusion Array, this formation, you have arranged it for more than a day, how many people have you deceived?" How can you not make hundreds of times more money from trading without capital? ”
Wei Zhaoyi opened her mouth wide and looked at her surroundings, "It turns out that you are a liar......"
The stall owner's face was blue and white, I don't know what to do, this is indeed the formation he laid with moonstones, although it is simple, but the technique is ingenious, even if it is a disciple of Qi refining, he usually can't see through it if he doesn't know how to learn the formation, he saw that Gu Yan and Wei Zhaoyi were both shallow in cultivation, thinking that this time it was another hand-to-hand capture, but he didn't expect that not only Gu Yan dismantled the formation, but also collected the eight moonstones he laid down, which shows that Gu Yan is well versed in the distribution of his formation eyes, and his attainments in the formation are obviously far above him!
Gu Yan ignored him, and said to himself: "You see that I am the outer disciple of Bixia Sect, I think that even if I am deceived, the master will not stand up for me, Bixia Sect only understands the way of alchemy, and I am not good at the study of formations, I can't see through your layout, I want to go back and look for you, there are prohibitions here, I can't see my face clearly, and I don't know where to look." It's a pity that you forgot one thing, since I am an outer disciple and a master of art investment, weishenme must not be able to learn the formation method? ”
She reached out and grabbed the Dan furnace held by the stall owner in her hand, and said: "This Dan furnace is really exquisite, probably you have deceived many people with it, but there is purple gold inside, and red copper outside, it is good to use it for viewing, but it is not a good material for alchemy." Her voice turned cold, and she looked at the stall owner coldly, "Why don't we go to the senior of the deacon in Fang City to make it clear?" ”
The stall owner Mu Ran's face turned gray and pale, and he suddenly fell to his knees and said, "Girl, spare your life!" Fairy spare your life! The villain was careless for a while, he didn't see the girl's identity, he didn't know that the girl had such a ability, the class got an axe, please spare this time! ”
Wei Zhaoyi hid behind Gu Yan, and suddenly felt that there was no room for her to interject. Gu Yan looked at the stall owner's snot and tears, and was not moved, and said: "Even if I want this Dan furnace, you return the spirit stone just now to me and report your name, even if this matter is revealed, the two have nothing to do with it." ”
The stall owner was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Gu Yan to just forget it, stood up quickly, and told his origin again. He is a local casual cultivator, and he is only a cultivator in the Qi refining period, he has some research on alchemy, and sometimes he will take some of the spiritual grass he picks to sell here, he is actually very cautious about deceiving people here, after all, he has no backer behind him, once this kind of thing is a goof, then the gate faction will not be merciful in punishing it, every time he picks up those disciples who look inconspicuous in the small and medium-sized sects, like Gu Yan, an outer disciple, or a young lady like Wei Zhaoyi who is ignorant of the world. Most of them will not notice when they are deceived, and if they do, they usually will not make a noise, so they can only suffer a dumb loss. This time he took out the Dan furnace, originally wanting to deceive a hundred spirit stones was enough, but he didn't expect to be debunked by Gu Yan at a glance.
Gu Yan looked at the Dan furnace in his hand and said, "Although this Dan furnace is not an antiquity, the workmanship is not bad, where did you get it?" ”
The stall owner said: "This is indeed the villain's family heirloom, but I don't know the origin, I usually use it for alchemy, but the Dan furnace has a low Dan rate, and half of the products that come out are waste, so the fairy still returns it to the villain." ”
Gu Yan said lightly: "You give the spirit stone to my junior sister, let's leave when it's over, as for this Dan furnace, I keep it for my own use, and other book friends can read it normally:." After speaking, she put the Dan furnace into the magic treasure bag, and said: "Although this Xuanji formation is a small way, but the layout is extremely ingenious, it doesn't look like you arranged it, do you still have accomplices?" ”
The stall owner's face changed for a moment, and he said with a wry smile: "A loose cultivation like a small one, it's just a bitter life, where do you dare to have an accomplice, in fact, I learned it from a formation fragment before, and when I meet a formation like a fairy, it's naturally not worth mentioning." ”
Gu Yan nodded, ignored him anymore, asked him to hand over the spirit stone that he had just bought the spirit bead grass, and then took Wei Zhaoyi away. Until he left Fang City and returned to Bixia Sect, Wei Zhaoyi kept puffing up, "Sister Yan, you Weishenme don't hand that person over to the deacon hall in Fang City, let him make a lot of trouble!" ”
Gu Yan smiled, "Forget it, he also admitted his mistake, why persecute it too much, anyway, we just came to look for the spirit grass, and now not only did we get the spirit bead grass, but also earned him twenty spirit stones, so let's teach him a lesson." It was not easy to collect this Spirit Bead Grass, and I think at least two months of his work was in vain. ”
The two of them walked out of the gate of Fang City from the original road, and found that Wei Qing had been waiting there for a long time, his face was full of chagrin, obviously he had not found a suitable spiritual weapon. Gu Yan comforted him a few more words, and promised to help him find it next time. The three of them talked and laughed and returned to Bixia Sect. When they arrived at the mountain, the Wei family brothers and sisters naturally had to go back to the front mountain to do their homework, while Gu Yan returned to the Spirit Garden. As usual, she first reported today's harvest to Rong Lao, and then she hesitated for a moment, then took out the Dan furnace from the magic treasure bag, and said: "Rong Lao, I got something in the Fang Market today, please taste it?" ”
Rong Lao picked up the Dan furnace and touched it with his hand, first revealing some disdain, "This thing is obviously an imitation, can't you see through it with your eyes?" Huh......" His hand suddenly stopped, and then he took it to his eyes and looked at it carefully.
"This thing should be a little weird, but I'm mortal with the naked eye, I can't see it, you're a monk, why don't you check the distribution of aura inside?"
Gu Yan smiled bitterly: "I have tried it in various ways, but there is no aura in it. She didn't say a word, when she first saw this Dan furnace, she had already decided to buy it, because the shape of this Dan furnace was very similar to the treasure Ding she saw when she returned to the ruins!
