Spirit stones are the most basic cultivation resources, usually a spirit stone is the size of a fingernail, and the spiritual power contained in it can allow a beginner Qi Refiner to cultivate for a month. Without the spirit stone, the monk would not be able to absorb the spiritual power, and naturally he would not be able to cultivate.

But with the spirit stone, it is not necessarily possible to get started, and there may not be one person in the world who has the talent for cultivation, and those who have the talent for cultivation, if they do not have the cultivation method, they will also not be allowed to enter.

Gu Zuo belongs to the situation of having exercises but no spirit stones, and it is not yet known whether he has the talent for cultivation himself.

His idea is also very simple, since Chen Liu and Jiang Qi don't give him money, then just let them exchange the money for spirit stones, if they can practice, then take this opportunity to practice, if not, then run away with spirit stones.

There are a total of 36 places in the world where there are spiritual stone veins, 12 large mines, 24 small mines, there is no in Shanyin County, and there is only one in the entire Huiji County, which is occupied by the Longrui Palace of the Chongxuan Department in Jiangnan East Road.

But you don't have to go to Longrui Palace to buy spirit stones, all sects and Taoist halls have deposits, and even the monks and big families in Shanyin County have a lot of spirit stones that can be exchanged for them, and the things exchanged include elixirs, elixirs, magic weapons, and of course, money.

At present, the market price is about 1,000 yuan, which is roughly the monthly expenditure of an ordinary family of five in the city, which is quite expensive.

Chen Liu and Jiang Qi have no talent for cultivation, and they only have some experience in martial arts, but behind them is a net that Gu Zuo has not figured out until now, and this net is enough to ensure that they can do a lot of things on the land of Shanyin County, and buying a spirit stone could not be easier for them.

The spirit stone was bought, and as Gu Zuo expected, Chen Liu spent 1,200 wen, of which the price difference of about 200 wen was naturally put into the pockets of the two of them, and Gu Zuo didn't say a word about it.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, this is the most important night for Gu Zuo, whether he can embark on the path of cultivation depends on this experience.

Gu Zuo locked himself in the room, and according to the method he had secretly learned from Wang Daochang, he held the crystal clear spirit stone the size of a fingernail in the palm of his hand, and used the exercises at the beginning of "Searching for Souls" to run the trick and begin to absorb the spiritual power in the spirit stone.

Gu Zuo couldn't be more familiar with the operation tricks of the exercises, since he secretly copied the "Soul Search Technique", he himself has practiced many times.

When people want to refine the soul of the sun, they first seek the root of Xuanyuan creation.

The essence of Taixuan is the foundation of the Tao, and whether the root bone of creation is usable, the key is to see the essence element, whether the essence element is suitable for use, and you can know it by trying.

The practice of "Sou Ling Jue" is not a sitting method, but a lying method. Lie down and sleep peacefully, spit out a hot air, imagine that the heat turns into spiritual light, surround the body for three weeks, enter from the Lao Palace, come out from the jade pillow, and drive the palm of the soul stone by itself in the circulation. If there is aura in the spirit stone to join the circulation, it means that the body has the root bone of creation, which can swallow and absorb the aura, if not, everything will be rested.

Gu Zuo practiced according to this method, closed his eyes and thought about it, the spiritual light surrounded his body three times, and when he reached the fourth circle, he felt a spiritual power like star sand added to the entangled spiritual light ribbon, and he was excited in his heart, and immediately withdrew from this perception.

Gu Zuo's eyes suddenly moistened, those who have the spiritual root of creation, there is not one in the world, there are both exercises and spirit stones, and there are even fewer of them, he can enter the threshold of cultivation, how lucky he is, no wonder he has tears in his eyes at this moment.

Turns out I'm a genius too!

Pushing open the door, Chen Liu and Jiang Qi were sitting in the courtyard, with a bonfire in front of them, and they didn't know what they were talking about. Gu Zuo laughed at them: "Sixth brother, seventh brother, buy a chicken and come back to roast and eat it! I am happy today! You will come out with the money first, and it will be recorded in my account!"

Chen Liu and Jiang Qi looked at each other, and when they saw Gu Zuo go back to the house and slam the door shut, Chen Liu frowned and said, "Inexplicable!"

Jiang Qi asked, "Do you want to buy it?"

Chen Liu thought for a while and said, "Of course I bought it, I will buy it tomorrow and put it on his account!"

Gu Zuo, who returned to the house, calmed down after a long time, lay down on the bed again, guided the exercises to absorb the spiritual power in the spirit stone, and practiced until the light of day brightened, and then got up.

As soon as he left the room, he saw Chen Liu and Jiang Qi waiting in the courtyard early in the morning, and directly put the cloth bag containing the peachwood sword, compass and copper bell on his shoulder: "Hurry up and go to Lao Ren's house." ”

Where did Gu Zuo dare to catch ghosts, and he wanted to find an excuse to delay for a few days, so he saw the right time to slip away, but Chen Liu and Jiang Qi were both famous boxers in the county, so they dragged him down the mountain directly, and they couldn't resist at all. Not to mention that he only entered the cultivation threshold on the first day, even if those Qi Refiners in other Dao Halls who had been cultivating for months or half a year, if they really fought, they might not be the opponents of Chen Liu and Jiang Qi.

Ghosts usually haunt at night, and Gu Zuo and the three of them rushed to Ren's house before noon. The big families had three meals, and they mixed until noon, rested in the house for an afternoon, and mixed until the evening.

The ancestors of the Ren family had been high-ranking officials, but that was three generations ago, and now they have changed careers and started trading, and they are not considered to have a status in the county, but they are very rich.

The head of the Ren family and Gu Zuo met with them, although they were polite, they were very skeptical about whether the young Gu Zuo had this ability. If it weren't for Chen Liu and Jiang Qi, I'm afraid Gu Zuo wouldn't have been able to get this errand.

From the mouth of the head of the Ren family, he understood the reason for the haunting, and followed the housekeeper to the vegetable garden at the west gate of the house, preparing to practice the law. According to the usual practice, let the people of the Ren family avoid other courtyards, leaving him and Chen Liu and Jiang Qi in the vegetable garden.

According to the words of the head of the Ren family, it is possible that this female ghost is the woman Xu Niangzi who planted vegetables here at the beginning, and she hanged herself on the old locust tree in the yard for some reason. Everything was normal for the three months after the hanging, but three days before the fight, it started to get into trouble.

I heard that it was a female ghost, Gu Zuo's heart was very empty, he heard Wang Daochang say that the two ghosts of female ghosts and yin children are the most ruthless and difficult to deal with.

Helplessly, Chen Liu and Jiang Qi were behind him, he was extremely unwilling but couldn't be the master.

"Sixth brother and seventh brother are also going?"

"Or else?"

Gu Zuo was not only different, but also a little relieved.

It was already dark, and the wooden door of the vegetable garden was closed by Jiang Qi, making a "squeak" sound, which made people panic.

Chen Liu was holding a paper lantern in his hand, and the three of them stood in the garden, Gu Zuo took out the compass and pretended to try to input mana into it, but this compass was not a real thing, and the mana in his dantian was like a gossamer, and he couldn't determine the location of the ghost object at all, and he tossed for a long time, but it was just a fake trick.

While tossing the compass, while carefully recalling the techniques and steps when he went out to hunt ghosts with Wang Dao Chang before, he was hesitating whether to shake the bell twice or get some paper money to burn it, Chen Liu pointed to the compass and suddenly said, "Isn't this moving?"
