Chapter 104: The Return Encounter
Generally, this kind of pill combination is very complicated, and it often needs to be carefully studied, because there is a high probability that they are ancient pills, and I don't know how long ago they are, and no one may have refined them for a long time.
There are many similar scrolls in the Fuguang Sect, and Elder Zhong of the Alchemy Academy often tinkers with these things, refining some unknown pills, and letting the disciples verify the effect.
Yu Xiao naturally didn't have so much time to study a pill that didn't know the meaning of existence, and it was impossible to refine it and find someone to try the pill, for him, this scroll was of little value.
After dispelling the idea of buying it, he picked up another one and looked at it.
Only then did he notice that the material of the scroll seemed to be the leather of some kind of demon beast, which was as warm as jade to the touch, and there was a faint aura in it.
Generally speaking, the monks of Yulizhou rarely use the leather of demon beasts to record Danfang, because the jade slips are not troublesome to make, and they can be read quickly by simply probing into the divine sense, which is far more efficient than the records of scrolls.
I think only the monks of Yuelan Continent will use animal skins to record Danfang.
He didn't think much about it, after all, no matter what the method was, what could be preserved was a good method.
This scroll also records Danfang, but there are only three, and it is much better than the previous scroll, the distinction between pills is quite clear, and Yu Xiao can basically understand the content inside.
To his surprise, he actually saw a familiar elixir on itβQingling Pill.
What's more, the Danfang given by Jiang Chen is exactly the same as the one recorded above, there are no discrepancies at all, and even the annotations on the pharmacological effects are exactly the same, which is completely like a copy of the past.
He couldn't help but be a little curious, could it be that this elixir was spread from Yuelan Continent to Yulizhou?
Thinking of this, he looked at Zou Lao and asked out loud, "Senior, what is recorded in this scroll?" β
Hearing this, Zou Lao only glanced at it and replied vaguely: "It seems that it was obtained from the hands of the Wu clan, and several relatively rare Dan prescriptions have been recorded, which are of high value, and fifty spirit stones are needed for rubbing." β
Before the words fell, Yu Xiao directly put the scroll back in his hand without blinking his eyes.
This move surprised Boss Zou, he obviously saw that Yu Xiao was very interested in the scroll, how could he give up so decisively, could it be that the price he opened was too high?
Then he paused for a moment, and immediately changed his words and said, "If you want it, just give twenty spirit stones." β
However, Yu Xiao was unmoved, except for the Dan Fang of Zhuji Dan, he would definitely not spend half an extra spirit stone in Wufang Building, so he changed the topic and said: "Senior, is this all Dan Fang, is there anything else that has not been taken out." β
Seeing that Yu Xiao was not satisfied with the things in the Secret Pavilion of the Book Collection, Zou Lao felt a little pity, it seems that this kid is still quite fine, and he didn't spend too much time on those useless and incomplete pills, and in the end he only earned four spirit stones, which completely couldn't make up for today's losses.
"Boy, you are really not satisfied, this is already all the Dan recipes that can be collected in the entire Great Wilderness City, and the Dan recipes that you can't find in my Wufang Building, you can't find them anywhere else." Zou Lao replied angrily, making him look like the kind of person who would put Hao Dong XZ up.
"It's the juniors who lost their words, please forgive the seniors!" Yu Xiao hurriedly apologized, he just asked casually, in fact, he didn't have much hope for this matter, try his luck, he could buy the best, and if he couldn't buy it, he would think of another way.
Zou Lao is not a narrow-minded person, he waved his hand and didn't care, he seemed to be still angry that he couldn't let Yu Xiao spend more spirit stones, and asked tentatively: "If you really want that scroll, you don't need to rub it, take ten spirit stones directly, and the old man will never say anything." β
Hearing this, Yu Xiao was a little speechless, what kind of person does this have to be so persistent in wanting to earn spirit stones from him, this guy is also a foundation building period monk, so it won't be like this.
But then again, since the Qing Ling Pill was recorded in that scroll, it showed that other pills were also valuable, and ten spirit stones to buy three Gu Dan prescriptions didn't sound like a loss.
After thinking about it again, he finally gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay, just ten spirit stones, I want the original." β
"Deal!"
Zou Lao suddenly smiled, his mouth was almost to the root of his ears, and he rushed over with an arrow to take the scroll, and hurriedly stuffed it into Yu Xiao's hand, for fear that he would regret it.
Although he knew that he was likely to buy back a useless thing, Yu Xiao still put the scroll into the storage bag, took out ten spirit stones and handed it over.
Earn another ten spirit stones, Zou Lao is more and more pleasing to Yu Xiao, he thought in his heart that he didn't know how many years that thing had been in Wufang Building, no one had ever paid attention to it, and even he himself was about to forget, and if he put it like this, it would be ashes, and now he found a 'knowledgeable' kid to sell it, at least it will not be a loss.
However, he didn't seem to be satisfied with this deal, and he set his eyes on another scroll, and continued: "Xiaoyou, that scroll is also sold to you for ten spirit stones, how about it?" β
"Old Zou, the juniors still have something to do, so I'll leave first!"
Yu Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly, and hurriedly refused, the contents of the records in that book were all mixed together, who had the time to study it carefully, he didn't collect rags, he didn't want everything.
Since Wufanglou couldn't buy the Zhuji Dan Danfang, he didn't waste any more time, and hurriedly turned around and left, for fear that he would be pitted with a lot of spirit stones again.
Because Yu Xiao ran too fast, Zou Lao didn't have time to say anything else if he wanted to sell some other things, he could only look at the back of the other party's departure and secretly shook his head, wondering when he would meet him again.
Leaving Wufang Building, Yu Xiao pondered for a moment, and finally didn't choose to go to other shops in the Great Wilderness City to see, thinking that most of them would not gain anything.
That Zou Lao is indeed greedy for money, but he is not so bad as to deceive him, if the other party really has such a thing as Zhuji Dandanfang, he would like to take it out and make him a lot of money.
It seems that he can't get the Zhuji Dan Dan Fang in the Great Wilderness City, and he has to garrison the Huangdry Cave and can't leave, and he doesn't know what to do for a while.
"Hey, let's go back to Huangkudong first, and see if I can find a chance to ask Elder Ding for a favor and let me go to Kuijiang City." After silently making up his mind, Yu Xiao left the Great Wilderness City and galloped all the way towards Yunying Mountain.
Three days later, the Cloud Shadow Mountain in the distance was getting closer and closer, and Yu Xiao's speed did not decrease, and he leaped through the forest with a twist, looking around from time to time.
Suddenly, the corner of his eye jumped slightly, as if he had found something, and immediately stopped, landed in an open space, and his palm couldn't help but move to the storage bag on his waist.
This is already within the warning range of the ore vein, and there are guards patrolling the vicinity on a regular basis.
The last time he came here, he met Cheng Song, but today he didn't see a single figure, which was very abnormal.
In the past half a year, in addition to cultivation, he has not asked about anything, and he has also secretly inquired about the general composition of Cloud Shadow Mountain.
Among them, there is a monk in the foundation building period, that is, Ding Youke, he is a monk of the Hun Tian Taiyi Yan Corpse Sect, and he was transferred to the Great Wilderness City as an elder, and he is fully responsible for the mining of the stone veins in Yunying Mountain.
And the monks like him stationed in the mine cave were also transferred from various sects in the Hun Tian Taiyi Alliance, most of them were monks from Yuelan Continent, and there were also a small number of Yulizhou monks, there were seventeen in total, all of them were all late-stage Qi refining monks.
In addition, there are also monks of various factions who are specially responsible for guarding, patrolling, guarding and other tasks, adding up to nearly a hundred Qi refining stage monks.
It was because of a huge force stationed here that Hun Tian Taiyi dared to mine the stone with such fanfare, otherwise how could he have survived for so long in a place close to the territory of the Snake Fighting Clan.
He didn't know which team was in charge of patrolling the area today, but he knew that if he walked over like this without anyone stopping him, then there was something wrong with Cloud Shadow Mountain.
His instinct told him that this matter must have something to do with the snake fighting clan.
Could it be that in the past few days since he left, the snake fighting clan has made new moves?
If the Snake Fighting Clan dares to make trouble, it must be a large-scale attack, otherwise just a few Snake Fighting Clansmen's plan to shake the Heavenly Taiyi to mine the stone is tantamount to a fool's dream.
But the strange thing is that in the surrounding area, there is no trace of a fight, and he looks calm as usual, as if nothing has happened.
This is the exact opposite of his inference.
Out of caution, Yu Xiao did not immediately deny his guess, but cautiously walked forward, his divine sense hooked the bronze sword, and his fingers controlled it to shoot towards the woods in front of him.
Woohoo!
The next moment, the rapid sound of breaking wind whistled in his ears like a whistle, and more than ten turquoise arrows, condensed with terrifying spiritual power, shot in volleys like a torrential rain.
Seeing this scene, Yu Xiao's heart tightened, and he was not flustered, he did not hesitate to prepare for it, his toes tapped the ground, and the whole person quickly retreated.
At the same time, the bronze sword made a turn, the speed surged, and a piercing sword roar erupted, and the body swelled and slashed down diagonally in an instant, and the sword light swept between the arrows and strangled all the attacking arrows, leaving no one behind.
Now that his cultivation has reached the perfection of Qi refining, he has long lost the heaviness he felt before when he controlled the bronze sword, and both his speed and power have improved a lot compared to before.
The casting process of the bronze sword is very extraordinary, although there are only thirty-six prohibitions, but the performance when urging with all its strength is not much worse than that of the forty forbidden magic weapons, and it is quite easy to control.
Easily defusing the attack, Yu Xiao didn't dare to be careless, still distracted, vigilantly staring at a forest in front of him.
With a slight rustle, a dozen people dressed in animal skins, holding longbows in their hands, and wearing various bone decorations on their heads appeared in front of them.
They didn't look much different from the people they'd seen before, except for their darker skin tones and somewhat strange clothing, they were almost Terran.
But he knew that these people were not Terrans, but self-proclaimed Wics.
If you look closely, you will see that they all have the same feature, that is, they have a snake-shaped charm made of the same animal bone around their necks, which is the symbol of the snake fighting clan.
From them, Yu Xiao felt a faint primitive and wild aura, faintly exuding an evil sense of oppression.
The Wu clan has been dealing with monsters in the primeval forest all year round, and it is not surprising that there is such a change.
Now that things are clear, the Snake Fighting Clan has raided the veins of Cloud Shadow Mountain, and they don't know what to do on their side.
