Chapter 705: Ebony Wood Essence
Du Bai glanced at her, not surprised that she would have such doubts.
Or if it's not weird, it's weird.
After all, what he is doing now is tantamount to something unprecedented, breaking the conventions of the demon world.
But......
"This is the only way we can change the landscape we have today." He said slowly in a deep voice, looking into the distance, "If this king wants to gradually expand the scale of the ghost city and attract more and more demons to take the initiative to join us, how can those righteous people sit idly by?" ”
He chuckled, "The gathering of so many and such powerful ghosts is tantamount to a threat to them like a natural disaster, and if you are restless, there may be another incident like the previous living Buddha." ”
"This ......" The Peach Blossom Demon hesitated for a moment, then bowed his head very resolutely, and replied as if he was looking at death, "The subordinates are willing to charge for the king, if those people dare to attack, the subordinates will definitely not give them the opportunity to get close to the king by half a step!" ”
Last time, if she hadn't been sent by the king to the city to stop those monks from "tempering" ordinary ghosts, she wouldn't have given that living Buddha a chance to get close to the king!
Even if your own strength is weak and you can't stop it, you must at least let the other party step on your corpse!
Du Bai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed helplessly: "Why fight and kill, if you can sit down and talk about it, isn't it the best of both worlds to cooperate with each other?" ”
"Since the people recruited by this king's side are all indisputable and kind, and even hope that disputes and casualties between humans and demons can be avoided, so that they can take the initiative to exorcise those evil demons and evil spirits, then in essence there is no difference from what those righteous people want."
"As long as the other party can realize this, then it is natural to talk."
The Peach Blossom Demon thought about it carefully, and felt that what the king said was a little profound and difficult to understand, but he vaguely felt that there was some truth, but he was still a little worried: "But the king, those righteous people always have some antique-like guys with stubborn personalities, what if they don't want to accept it?" ”
Du Bai slowly raised his head, and a mysterious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth in the dark curtain.
"At that time, the king will naturally have the means to convince them."
"This plan will be implemented as soon as possible, and this matter will be mainly entrusted to you, this king still has important matters to deal with in the next few days, if there is no important matter, there is no need to ask me."
……
A few days later.
A small town called Qingliu Town nearby came up with a few travelers from afar.
The mountains around Qingliu Town are relatively gentle, and there are no lofty mountains and steep mountains, the roads extend in all directions, and there are quite a lot of merchants coming and going, so the development is quite good.
Although the town is not large, it is also very prosperous, with a large flow of people from all over the world, and traders with different clothes and accents can be seen everywhere.
Some objects that may be rare on a daily basis can be found here occasionally.
Therefore, some guests from afar are not particularly noticeable here.
If there is really a slightly strange point, that is, they are all wearing slender cyan long-sleeved Taoist robes, with a bundle of Taoist crowns on their heads, and their temperament is much colder than that of ordinary people, as if they stand out from the crowd, so that people can know at a glance that they are not those often seen copper-smelling vendors or bookish scholars.
It's more like some cultivators who came out of the Taoist temple of seclusion, and they have some cultivation!
As a result, many people look strangely at these people when they pass by, wondering what they are doing in such a worldly place.
Of course, there is no such thing as curiosity, at most it is just a cursory glance.
After all, strange things are not uncommon in the world, and they come here to do business and make money.
Ignoring the strange sights coming from elsewhere, after coming here, the five young Taoist priests skillfully found an inn that seemed to be relatively comfortable to stay in for a while, planning to deal with it here for a few days, and then depending on the situation.
And in the afternoon, they hurried here after all the ups and downs along the way, after all, they had not really cultivated and become immortals, they were a little tired, and their stomachs were also a little hungry, so they found a more secluded table and chair in the lobby to sit down, and called Xiao Er to bring some signature dishes.
Although the taste of the food in this place is not quite what they want, it is okay to have a few of them.
What's more, after filling their stomachs and recovering a little energy, several people discussed their next plans in a low voice.
"Senior brother, since we have come to this Qingliu Town, why don't we go separately and inquire about the whereabouts of that treasure?"
One of the younger junior disciples was a little anxious, and asked the senior brother who was slowly tasting wine on the side.
The senior brother held the wine glass and groaned for a while, then nodded slowly: "Wei Zhu, after a short rest after dinner, you will take a few junior disciples to inquire in this town." But remember, don't make a statement! After all, this place is still mundane, and it should not be too public. ”
"Okay, big brother!" The disciple named "Wei Zhu" hurriedly answered, and then whispered with some hesitation, "But Senior Brother, can you stop calling me by my full name?" Just call me Senior Brother Wei......"
The senior brother was stunned for a moment, but then his face turned correct: "Wei Zhu, do you know that the parents of the body are affected by the skin, no matter how noble or low, this name is given by the parents, how can you dislike it because it doesn't sound good?" Wei Zhu, you have to remember that cultivators like us are not ruthless, and this filial piety must not be abandoned at will......"
"Oh......" Wei Zhu sighed faintly, his face was bitter, his eyes and nose were looking at his heart, and he could only obediently listen to the senior brother's reprimand because of his identity.
This time, they came to find a heavenly and earthly treasure specially used to refine the elixir for their master, the Ebony Frost Wood Essence.
The conditions under which this thing was born were extremely harsh, and because it was too scarce, there were no clues after searching for many years, and the elixir could never be baked, and the master was very worried, and even his hair was visible to the naked eye A large patch of white.
This time, I happened to learn that there was a natural treasure near this Qingliu Town, which can be described as great news, and these disciples immediately rushed to come, for fear of missing it!
If it weren't for the fact that the master was concentrating on refining the elixir, I am afraid that he would have rushed over in person in a hurry.
Even so, they were not sure that they would be able to find this extremely rare treasure.
It is already very rare for the Ebony Wood Spirit to appear one at a time, and it is tantamount to a pipe dream to expect more than two copies to appear.
But even so, without other clues, they could only hope for some miracle, or directly find the person holding the Ebony Wood Spirit in their hands and exchange it for this treasure from the other party.
In their opinion, how could mortals understand the true value of such treasures in such a mundane world? At most, it's just a collection of rare and beautiful objects, which is simply a tyrannical thing!
If you can buy this treasure directly with a large amount of gold and silver, you will make a lot of money! If you can't do it, you can also use your own cultivation to make spells and magic weapons with special effects and give them to the other party in exchange.
For these mortals, gold, silver, and spell magic weapons were definitely much more valuable than this treasure that could only be seen in their hands!
