Chapter 441: Big Fat Sheep
Liang Cheng deliberately made a helpless expression: "There's no way, I only have 50,000 high-grade spirit stones on me now, otherwise I will take 50,000 as a deposit first, and then deliver the ore tomorrow?"
Saying that, Liang Cheng took out a small storage bag and gently opened the mouth of the bag, and there were 50,000 high-grade spirit stones lying quietly inside, and the crystal light emitted flashed directly into Lao Wang's eyes.
"This ...... Really, a beautiful high-grade spirit stone. After all, Lao Wang's eye sockets are shallow, in fact, 50,000 high-grade spirit stones is already a big number for him, so he involuntarily reached out and took the 50,000 high-grade spirit stones, and after that, he held it in his hand and felt that he was unwilling to let go anymore.
“...... Okay, then the two of us will still be waiting for you here tomorrow, and my old king will accept the 50,000 spirit stones first. Wang continued.
"Uh, this can't be done, wait a minute, two brothers, although we are very close to each other, but after all, Pingshui met, these 50,000 spirit stones are not a decimal, don't you give your brother an explanation after you take it today?" Liang Cheng asked.
"Ah!?then, what should I do? What do you want to say, brother? Why don't I give you an IOU?"
Liang Cheng was very dissatisfied, shook his head and said: "IOU, no, no, no! What's the use of this thing? If your brother doesn't come tomorrow, who will I go to with this IOU? After all, my eyes are black in this Wanghai City, and I don't know anything about the situation, otherwise forget it, you pay me back 50,000 spirit stones first, and come here tomorrow to meet each other according to your reputation, and no one owes anyone is good for everyone." ”
Lao Wang and Lao Qiao were stunned when they heard this, Lao Wang was holding on to the spirit stone and refused to let go, and Lao Qiao was also secretly anxious in his heart, for fear that something would change and make this business in hand ruined.
So Lao Qiao rolled his eyes and said: "Brother Jiang, do you think this is good, don't you like this gray stone very much? Then you can take it first, this thing is not cheap, and if you hold it in your hand, it can be regarded as a collateral." In this way, everyone has each other's things in their hands, so it's fair. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but stuff the gray stone directly into Liang Cheng's arms, and then immediately motioned with his eyes to Lao Wang to quickly put away the spirit stone and leave immediately.
"This ...... I'm afraid it's some, I think it......" Liang Cheng was happy when he saw that his goal had been achieved, and he deliberately showed a dissatisfied look on his face, and his mouth seemed to want to say something.
"That's it, that's it, we still have some things, let's go first, we'll see you tomorrow!"
Lao Qiao and Lao Wang got 50,000 spirit stones, they were already overjoyed, although there may be a big harvest tomorrow, but they always feel that the 50,000 spirit stones are now more solid in their hands, and the two of them were afraid that Liang Cheng would change their hexagrams, so they hurriedly got up and said goodbye, and they couldn't even take care of the seafood dinner.
Brick smiled when he saw this, and he was so happy that he couldn't stop talking when he saw that the potential opponents who were competing with him for the seafood feast had left.
Liang Cheng also smiled slightly, put away the gray stone, and thought to himself that this price could be regarded as a fair deal, 50,000 high-grade spirit stones bought this thing, it was a drizzle for himself, but it was not a bully for low-level monks, because if this thing had been held in Lao Wang's hands, it would actually have no value.
Now that this strange stone in Lao Wang's hand has been sold for 50,000 high-grade spirit stones, he should already be very satisfied, a low-level monk like him never dreamed that he could sell it for such a high price by picking up a random piece of gray stone.
However, all these things happened under Mr. Ding's nose that day, Liang Cheng was always worried about whether this master would intervene, but fortunately, in the end, he successfully got the gray stone, and nothing happened to him, it seems that this Mr. Tianding is not a nosy person.
However, Liang Cheng became interested in the origin of this gray stone, because he had overheard the conversation between Lao Qiao and Lao Wang, and heard Lao Wang say that this thing was picked up from the Demon Cave, and it meant that the Demon Cave was quite close to Wanghai City, Liang Cheng firmly remembered the name of the place, and was ready to find an opportunity to investigate the Demon Cave in the future.
Just when Liang Cheng was drinking and thinking, another person walked up to Liang Cheng, Liang Cheng looked up, only to see someone who came and smiled: "This son, I overheard you say that it is the first time I came to our place in Wanghai City, and I want to know a lot of things, so I will come to Mao Sui to recommend myself now, and I will be called Lutong in the next name, and the various customs and folklore of Wanghai City, the legends and legends, I almost know it in the next, and I am willing to solve the doubts for the son." ”
"Oh...... Is it a local? Liang Cheng didn't expect that he would provoke the monks of Wanghai City to come over and talk to him, it seems that his image of a big fat sheep is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Glancing at the monk who claimed to be Lu Tong in front of him, Liang Cheng found that this guy had poor qualifications, his cultivation was still very low, he looked like he was in his forties, and his cultivation was about to reach the early stage of Xuanzhao, and his breath was still quite unstable, so he was obviously a new Xuanzhao monk.
Liang Cheng didn't care either, thinking that it would be good to have news, wouldn't it be just for this to go out for himself? So he said: "In that case, Lu Daoyou, please sit down! Are you a native of Wanghai City?"
That Lutong was not polite, and after sitting down, he picked up Lao Qiao's chopsticks, took a large piece of fish and swallowed it, and then took the cup and drank a glass of wine. Let's read books
Only then did Lu Tong breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, I have been in Wanghai City since I was a child, and I am already one hundred and fifty years old this year, and I have never left this place for a single step. ”
"That's right. Liang Cheng thought to himself that this Lutong was actually so old, if it was among mortals, this would be regarded as a hundred years old, so he said that if he knew this place well, it would not seem to be a lie.
Liang Cheng smiled: "Okay! That's it, I'm interested in everything here, I can ask wherever I want, after all the questions of interest are asked, thank you for the five above grade spirit stones, what about you, try to answer my question in detail, which question you answer to my satisfaction, just add one more high-grade spirit stone as a thank you, how about the Taoist friend?"
"Really! Of course, fellow Daoists, please ask!" Lu Tong was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately stopped eating food or drinking wine, and pricked up his ears to listen to Liang Cheng's question.
An hour later, Lu Tong's ruddy face earned more than ten high-grade spirit stones, and Liang Cheng's questions were answered, and most of these answers made Liang Cheng feel very satisfied, basically listening to one answer and adding a spirit stone.
After earning more than a dozen high-grade spirit stones, Lu Tong saw that Liang Cheng had nothing to ask, so he waved at him again and again, and left proudly, Liang Cheng knew almost everything he wanted to know about Wanghai City.
It's no wonder that Lu Tong is so excited, more than ten high-grade spirit stones are actually equivalent to more than 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones, but the grades are different, the spirit stones earned today are all high-grade, and their value is much higher than the medium-grade spirit stones used in Wanghai City.
Lu Tong spent an hour answering some questions alone, and he earned a lot more than Lao Qiao and Lao Wang earned together, which felt really cool.
Looking at the back of Lu Tong Xizizi leaving, Liang Cheng only now figured out why Mr. Tianding would refine the elixir in the lobby of this restaurant, it turned out that this place in Wanghai City, whether it was spiritual energy or demonic energy, was congenitally insufficient, and it seemed that there was still some kind of defect in the vitality of heaven and earth, and finally the local monks would have a certain chance of suffering from some strange little problems as they grew older.
These small problems are not fatal, and most of the time they are harmless, even if they are bald, psoriasis, black moles on the face or something, they will not die, at most they look a little indecent.
Since there are almost no alchemists in the local area, only this monk Mr. Tianding, who came to Wanghai City by accident from which year, will open a furnace for alchemy here, so the local monks will come here to buy pills. Those who are more unlucky, who suffer from stubborn minor diseases, hope to be cured by Mr. Tianding.
Mr. Tianding's personality is very strange, his cultivation is very high, everyone can't see through him, and in the end, everyone also found that this alchemist doesn't seem to care much about spirit stones, as long as he is in a good mood, he will sometimes refine some Peiyuan solid pills. Of course, most of the time, Mr. Tianding still refines those elixirs that cure minor ailments of local monks.
Over time, everyone found that as long as they praised Mr. Tianding's alchemy attainments, he would most likely be in a good mood and would be willing to refine the pill for you.
It's just that the effect of these pills after refining is really indescribable, some of the pills have a very good effect, and some will have some strange side effects, and everyone even wonders if this Mr. Tianding is using everyone to practice.
However, the local monks had no other choice, unless they were not interested in the elixir, otherwise, if they wanted the elixir, they could only come to Mr. Tianding to refine it.
Originally, it stands to reason that after the monk's body has been built and cleansed, the impurities in the body are very few, and as the cultivation is improved step by step, the body will be more pure, and it is impossible to suffer from any minor problems.
But this place in Wanghai City is so strange, there is no big problem for foreign monks to live here all the year round, at most the progress of cultivation is slow, but the local monks seem to be congenitally deficient, lacking something, no matter how high or low the cultivation is, it is easy for some people to make some small mistakes.
In fact, there are only one or two of these sick monks out of a hundred, and the proportion is not too large, but there are so many monks in Wanghai City, so the total number of monks with stubborn minor problems is also quite a lot.
Therefore, Mr. Tianding spends most of his time refining the elixir for curing diseases, and there are not too many people who need the elixir that solidifies the foundation and cultivates the yuan, because the ghost place of Wanghai City is congenitally insufficient, and it is difficult for ordinary monks to cultivate anyway, so there is not much difference between taking the pill and not taking it.
As long as the monks who can leave here have already left Wanghai City and gone to other places, the monks who stayed behind are almost all the last resort, basically people with extremely poor qualifications, poor at hand, and unable to leave.
This situation is actually a vicious circle, the poorer the poorer the monks, the poorer they are, the more impoverished they are, the more they can't leave this Wanghai City, the monks can't advance, the longevity is limited, and the more popular the atmosphere of marrying each other as Taoist couples, some small sects are almost all one-on-one monks, and they live and fly every day.
These monks who have become Taoist couples give birth to offspring, and when they reach the age of seven or eight, as long as they have the qualifications to cultivate the truth, they will often be accepted by the sect, and then strictly supervised, hoping that they will become talents, because these young people all have the unwilling wishes of the older generation of monks, hoping that one day their children and grandchildren will have the opportunity to leave the barren place of Wanghai City.
