Volume 2 Three Bodies and Four Wisdom Bodies Zhongyuan 0127 The utensils for making Gu
"There really is a secret room! It turns out that this book does not hide confidential documents, but opens the mechanism of the secret room!" Feng Luqi happily stroked her palm and asked, "Senior Sister Xu, how did you know?"
"The eight doors are different every hour of the day, I saw that these eight books have their own directions on the shelves, so I wanted to put the corresponding books on the current eight directions to see what would happen, but I didn't expect it to be the mechanism to open the secret room!" Xu Yibing was also quite surprised.
"Let's go, go in and have a look. Mr. Cicada took the lead in first.
After everyone entered, they saw that this secret room was the same size as the study, but there was only a large locked box inside, and the key could be on the centipede officer, or in the study or bedroom outside, but Mr. Cicada was too lazy to look for it, and with a wave of his robe sleeve towards the box, the lock was opened.
"The old ghost is so handsome to unlock!" Mr. You Guang teased, "It's strange that you can become a big businessman, and you're afraid that you won't be able to make up the capital if you have this hand?"
"I don't have time to raise the bar with you, let's find a clue. Mr. Cicada stepped forward to open the box.
I saw that there were a lot of things inside, but they were neatly placed, and there were a few books stacked on the left side, Mr. Cicada directly picked up the top book and looked at it, and said happily without turning a few pages: "Haha, this is a journal, there must be clues in it!"
The others hurriedly stepped forward, and Mr. You Guang asked, "What is written on it?"
"Hmm...... Wait for me to take a look......" Mr. Cicada flipped through a few more pages, "Sure enough, the outposts we walked along the way all served as smuggling cargo transfer stations, especially the first outpost and this outpost, the business is very busy!"
"What do they use to trade with the smugglers?" asked the Demon Sword hurriedly.
"I'll see...... This one seems to have been written, and I will read it to you. "I thought I would have to wait a few days, but I didn't expect to receive smugglers in my first week in office."
I have never understood what kind of wealth can attract smugglers to come here in a barren land like ours to exchange military supplies, and even buy enough mica coins circulating outside.
When the exchange items designated by the smugglers arrived from the fortress, the cloud of doubt in my heart finally dissipated, but in an instant, a new cloud of doubt enveloped me.
I was really surprised, because these exchanges turned out to be corpses of the same kind! Our race has a long lifespan, and they seem to be in the prime of spring, so it is impossible for them to die.
In fact, it doesn't take much guesswork to see that they died, but why do the smugglers need these bodies? Whatever, anyway, tomorrow the smugglers will know. ”
"This one is over, let's see what the next one writes. "The smugglers arrived early this morning, a team of six, with lizardmen, spider spirits, scorpion spirits, snake spirits, toad spirits, and even one of the same kind.
It turned out that what they needed was not the corpses, but the spirit beads in their bodies, and the smugglers called them centipede beads. Only then did I know that this batch of corpses actually belonged to some masters!
The smugglers are very good at playing, and they bet on the quantity and quality of the orbs contained in the corpses, like gambling stones, and even invite me and my soldiers to participate in their games. But how can we, the poor soldiers, afford to gamble? So we decisively refused. But to be honest, watching their gambling scenes, people really can't help but want to get involved.
The first thing they bet on was how many corpses had spirit beads in their feet, and the result shocked me, almost all of the corpses had spirit beads on their feet, the least of them were twenty, and the most of them had spirit beads in all their feet, indicating that the realm of these corpses was high and terrifying, they should be the big people in the fortress, how could they die so many at once?
But I wasn't really in the mood to think about it at the time, because the gambling scene was so exciting, and every time I found a corpse with a spirit bead in all its feet, the smugglers would be ecstatic, even the losers, and of course my soldiers and I would only be more shocked, because it would mean the death of another big master.
Among today's batch of corpses, there are actually three corpses with spirit beads in their feet! Oh my God! How could such a big man end up like this?
But this is not the most shocking scene, when all the corpses in the feet of the spirit beads have been cut out, they will gather all the corpses with spirit beads in their feet, and start a second game, betting on whether the corpse's head contains spirit beads.
I can't believe that there really is a corpse with a spirit bead in its head, because such a corpse belongs to a saint! But how could a saint die unexpectedly? But today, there is a corpse like this.
The smugglers were so excited that they left all the goods they had brought with them, and then returned the same way with all the orbs, and according to them, if the orbs they harvested were not worth exchanging all their goods, they would continue to move on and go to the territory of other races to make an exchange.
There is a seal at the entrance, we can't get out, the smugglers can get out for some reason, I plan to wait until I get acquainted with them, maybe I can get out too, the cultivation and tragic ending of these corpses today make me feel very disturbed. ”
"Centipede beads?" Mr. You Guang said in surprise, "It turns out that the smugglers are here for this thing, but this thing is worthless outside, and there is no market for it at all?"
"It is understandable that there is no market, but if it is said that it is worthless, how can it be justified?" Sima Chengzhen was incredulous, "Centipede beads are rare treasures in the spiritual world and the mortal world, and they can be said to be priceless and unmarketable! ”
"Could it be that these smugglers have a connection with the Great Spirit Realm of the outside world? How is this possible?" Mr. Cicada couldn't believe his speculation, "If this is true, how can they transport the spirit beads to the Great Spirit Realm outside?"
Yu Yunluo said: "It must be the outside world? Could it be that on the Six Poison Island, the centipede bead is not a natural treasure? Doesn't the centipede spirit itself also call it a spirit bead? It doesn't seem like it doesn't know its use and value, right?"
Feng Luqi said: "Mr. Cicada is a great pharmacist, he should know the medicinal value of the five poisons, especially the five poisons with cultivation, and sometimes the treasure beads are bred in the body, which is very cherished by cultivators. ”
Mr. Cicada said: "It is because I know the value of this thing in the outside world that I suspect that someone from the outside world has come here to collect this." They have a price in the outside world because they are too rare for ordinary people to buy, and they will not be used if they get them. But if a large number of various spirit beads from the Six Poison Islands spread to the outside world, with a surplus, a market may be formed. ”
Honggu said: "But there is no other way to leave the Six Poison Island than to take the Pure Land of Emperor E, otherwise why would the Six Poison Spirits bother to break the seal? ”
Xu Yibing said: "Isn't the centipede bead not enhancing the cultivation of the six poisonous spirits?"
Mr. You Guang said: "Yes, not only will it not enhance the effect, but it will also hinder cultivation, because the six poisons are restrained by each other, and the spirit beads of the same kind are useful, but unless they are dead, it is almost impossible for the spirit beads of the six poison spirits to spread to others." No matter how much the cultivation of the six poisonous spirits is mentioned here, it is impossible for them to ascend to the other world, so their spirit beads will always be kept in their hands. ”
Xiang Demon Sword said: "Lu Qi, I have heard you talk about the Gu art of the East, how do I think that the Six Poison Island is a large Gu making vessel? Maybe the market behind those smugglers is the great god and witch in the Pure Land of Emperor E?"
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!" His words were a challenge to the faith of Mr. Cicada and Mr. You Guanger, and Feng Luqi was afraid of angering them, so he hurriedly stopped them.
"Maybe this is the truth, I have always doubted that the beings of the Six Poison Islands are the embodiment of the Six Poison Hearts of the Three Nationals. "Honggu has no intention of taking care of the feelings of Mr. Cicada and Mr. You Guangji.
Sure enough, they couldn't help but lose their color when they heard her words.
"Sir, please read the journal too early. Sima Chengzhen hurriedly played a round game, "After all, there are no Divine Witch Dao monks among the smugglers. ”
Mr. Cicada's face changed and changed, and he finally controlled his emotions and moved his gaze back to the journal.
