Volume 1 The Elephant of the Circle of Heaven and Earth Chapter 60 The Scattered Ashram
When everything was done and I returned to the mansion, it was getting late. Liang Cheng was happy in his heart, and ordered the kitchen to prepare a few kinds of wine and food, and poured himself a drink. It's a pity that Yu Zishan is not here, and he will not come back because he is going to detain the villagers tonight, so Liang Cheng drank alone for a while and went to cultivate.
Monks above the foundation level usually do not need to sleep and rest at night like ordinary people or Qi refining period monks, except for sleeping for a while when they are too tired, they usually spend their nights in meditation and cultivation.
Liang Cheng meditated until midnight, the weather suddenly changed, it rained heavily, and the thunder and lightning in the sky were one after another, rumbling, bursts of silver light, and the sky was like a silver snake dancing.
Liang Cheng got up and came to the courtyard, carried the spiritual light of the body, isolated the rain, looked up to enjoy the landscape of this rainy night, and his thoughts flowed in his heart.
Suddenly, a meteor shower with a long tail of flame streaked across the night sky and headed for the distance south of the city. Liang Cheng was shocked when he saw this, this meteor shower was in the direction where Yu Zishan went yesterday, and he didn't know what the master was.
After watching it for a while, Liang Cheng felt that the power of this meteor shower was not a threat to a foundation building period monk like Zishan, and there should be no danger, so he returned to the room with confidence to continue his cultivation.
The next day, it was not until three poles in the morning that Yu Zishan returned to the mansion, and there was no entourage by his side. Yu Zishan looked excited, went straight to Liang Cheng, and asked loudly: "Brother Cheng, do you know why you detain the villagers in the wheat field? ”
"But it has something to do with last night's meteor shower?" Liang Cheng said.
"That's right, Brother Cheng, you also saw that the meteor shower all fell on Zhang Lizhuang, almost leveling Zhuangzi to the ground. If it weren't for the fact that all the villagers were detained by me in the wheat field, there would have been heavy casualties. ”
"Now although the Zhuangzi is completely destroyed, but the people are fine, I sent the Buddha to the west, and this morning arranged for the Wang steward to buy materials to find masons and carpenters to help the villagers rebuild the Zhuangzi, and I will pay for it. Yu Zishan waved his hand, with a big bag on his face.
"This is really a great merit, Zishan, you have done a good job. The task of my kind of tree was also completed yesterday, and I see that there has been so much rain recently, and it is estimated that it is the same for me to plant trees on the embankment of Majiatun, which will play a role one day to keep the embankment and let Majiatun survive the flood safely. Liang Cheng said.
"Well, yes, it must be so, this Hope Crystal Ball is amazing. By the way, let's see what the guidance is for me. Yu Zishan hurriedly looked at the crystal ball floating in the air.
"Hey, but it's the time and place, what's the reason?" Yu Zishan felt strange after seeing it, only to see that the crystal fan fog dispersed, and Yu Zishan's image appeared, but he was in front of a flower building, standing still in a daze.
The white stone slab under the crystal ball is marked with the time and direction in detail, especially the direction, which is simply not too detailed, and it is required that the square inch cannot be deviated by the slightest.
"I know this place, isn't it the square under the Laifeng Tower in Yong'an City. Yu Zishan said and looked at the time: "Oh, it's not good, the time is too tight, I'm going to pass now, and I won't be able to catch up if it's late." ”
After Yu Zishan finished speaking, he came to the white slate and carefully memorized the direction of the crystal ball, silently memorized it in his mouth, and then nodded at Liang Cheng and left in a panic.
After Yu Zishan left, Liang Cheng took out the VIP card of the Baoguang Pavilion and looked at the auction information, and found that the Zhuyan Dan he entrusted would not be auctioned until three days later, so the situation of the shortage of spirit stones at hand for a while would not change, and there were only fifty or sixty thousand spirit stones in the storage bag, which was still very poor.
But seeing that there were still a lot of things in the bag, in addition to the things he needed to keep, the rest were some low-level demon beast materials, which were still accumulated by killing demon beasts when he crossed the Nine Thousand Mountains area, Liang Cheng decided to find a place to dispose of these materials and replace them with spirit stones to see how many there were, so as not to occupy the place in vain.
So Liang Cheng went out to hire a car, and saw that the young guide yesterday was chatting with a few companions. Liang Cheng shouted and beckoned, and the young man ran over eagerly, got into Liang Cheng's car and left.
Liang Cheng randomly found a shop to pack and dispose of the materials, and obtained more than 40,000 lower grade spirit stones, so that there were almost 100,000 lower grade spirit stones in total. Liang Cheng frowned, feeling that his assets were not enough to participate in the alchemy gambling battle that he was optimistic about yesterday, and he was unwilling to waste time waiting for the auction of the spirit stones of the Yan Dan to arrive.
So he asked the young guide if he knew some low-end Doudan places, and the young man smiled: "Senior, there is no place in this Yong'an City that I don't know." There is a place in the east of the city, which is called the Sanxiu Dandao Exchange Hall. The guild hall is presided over by the great power of the casual cultivators, and there are many scattered cultivators who like the Dan Dao to gamble and exchange there, and the pills refined in the gambling fights are often auctioned on the spot, so this is the first choice for our casual cultivators to buy the pills needed for cultivation, and it is very famous, and the little ones often go there to play once they are free. ”
"Okay, just go there. As soon as Liang Cheng heard this, he felt that this place was very suitable for him, and he was not a shy casual cultivator at the moment.
After a while, Liang Cheng arrived at the place. Looking at the building of this scattered ashram, although the momentum pattern is slightly inferior to the place I went yesterday, it is not bad, and before I entered the door, I saw all kinds of people coming in and out, and the popularity seemed to be even more vigorous.
Liang Cheng walked into the hall, but saw that the young guide who came with him also followed, he said that he had some private matters here, and he would come here, and he would not delay Liang Cheng's car, Liang Cheng nodded and agreed, and the young man hurriedly walked into the hall, and then Liang Cheng also walked in.
I saw that the lobby of this hall was extremely wide, almost like a square with a roof, which should have been caused by some kind of spatial spell, so although there were people everywhere, I didn't feel that it was crowded.
There are a lot of alchemy fighting platforms set up on the four sides of the lobby, but there are not too many people participating in the gambling fight, Liang Cheng thinks that this is probably because there are not many alchemists in the casual cultivation.
Alchemy is a money-burning skill, and most of the casual cultivation cannot be climbed, even if there is a casual cultivation with alchemy talent and improves their skills to a good level, they will be valued and recruited by various small and medium-sized sects, and then they will break away from the identity of casual cultivation and refine pills for their own sects. In a word, those with poor levels cannot afford to learn, and those with good levels become not casual cultivators. This is a strange circle of the growth of a loose cultivator, and there is basically no solution, so it is extremely difficult for ordinary casual cultivators to obtain a slightly better pill.
Liang Cheng approached a fighting platform where someone was gambling on it, and after looking at it, he found that this fighting platform was set up more ingeniously, and a one-way soundproof protective light shield could be opened, and a platform could accommodate two people to compete on stage.
Liang Cheng took a look at these two flames, one was a ground fire that was not of a low grade, which was considered decent. There is also a kind of Dan Fire of fire-based demon beasts, which is much hotter than Earth Fire, but it is also extremely violent and difficult to control. Looking at the degree of this Dan fire, at least it can only be used by a demon beast above level eight, which means that there is still a fire demon beast above level eight in this hall somewhere, in this way, it can be seen that this hall is quite powerful.
Walking into the crowded crowd of onlookers, Liang Cheng turned his gaze to the two monks who were fighting Dan, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
In Liang Cheng's opinion, the skills of the two loose cultivators who were competing on the fighting skill platform were mediocre, and this level was not enough to obtain the title of alchemist, so they could only be called alchemists, and the pills being refined were also relatively ordinary Peiyuan Dan, which was suitable for cultivators in the Qi refining period. Liang Cheng had also taken this elixir when he was building the foundation and rushing to the pass, but the scattered cultivators who were watching from the audience were all eager, and they could see that they were extremely eager for this elixir.
In fact, this is Liang Cheng who is full of people who don't know that the hungry man is hungry, he himself used to have a heavenly spirit root, and his cultivation speed can be said to be thousands of times that of ordinary people, and there are few bottlenecks in his cultivation, so he rarely takes pills. As everyone knows, this Pei Yuan Pill is already an extremely precious pill in the eyes of Qi refining period cultivators, and he is usually reluctant to take it at all, and basically keeps it for the key to improving the realm.
Most of the Qi cultivation period usually take a powder called Ju Ling San, in fact, this is the residue left by the Dan Master after the failure to refine the pill, but it has a slight effect, in Liang Cheng's eyes, this is the waste residue that can be discarded directly, but in the eyes of ordinary monks, it is also a very important auxiliary medicine.
"Master Gao's Dan is almost complete, it's amazing!" someone praised.
"Yes, Master Liu seems to be slightly inferior in speed, and it seems that it will take a while and a half to get the pill, of course, this is also very good. ”
Although the level of resident Danke in the guild hall is limited, all the scattered cultivators have always been called masters to show respect. At first, the Dankes felt that they didn't dare to trespass, and often thanked them a few words, but then they gradually got used to it, and they also felt that they were actually similar to the alchemist, and they slowly got used to the title of master.
Seeing that the competition between the two reached the last moment, the onlookers were buzzing, and many people showed excitement, it seemed that they had chosen the right person for the bet.
Suddenly, there was a "bang", it turned out that the alchemist surnamed Liu saw that the time could not catch up with the surname Gao, his mentality was impatient, and he was in a hurry, but he blew up the furnace, not only did the pill not succeed, but also blew up a crack in his Dan furnace, and I don't know if this Dan furnace was scrapped.
At this time, a burst of medicinal fragrance suddenly wafted out of the stage, it turned out that the high monk had already made a pill, and then took out the pill and put it on a jade plate to be inspected by the referee. After a while, the referee said in a loud voice: "Gao Dayuan has practiced a total of thirty-eight pills of intermediate Peiyuan Dan, and it took half an hour and a quarter and two pillars of incense. Liu Jinfeng's pill was not successful. I declare Gao Dayuan the winner!"
"Hahaha. That Gao Dayuan was very proud, his eyes looked at Liu Jinfeng with slight disdain, but he said, "Brother Liu, don't worry about it." ”
"I'm fine, this time it's you who wins. Then Liu Jinfeng forced his composure, arched his hand, and then poured the residue in the Dan furnace into the jade plate in front of him, took the Dan furnace and turned around and walked off the stage.
The winning Gao Dayuan also walked down the high platform diligently, and walked straight to the counter, seeing that he was going to collect his win. Liang Cheng was quite interested in this, and wanted to see how much benefit this surnamed Gao could get, so he followed from a distance and looked intently.
