Red Sand Wind Chapter 54 The old man in green shirt
Putting away the classics, Yan Ning slowly walked to the old man in the green shirt recommended by the female cultivator.
"Dare to ask Daoyou, I want to consult some more detailed introductions to classics related to Danzhou, I don't know if there is anything here?" Yan Ning stepped forward and asked calmly.
The old man, who was immersed in hard reading, raised his head when he heard Yan Ning's question, and looked Yan Ning up and down.
Then, he turned around and put away the scroll, took out a tone of educating the juniors, and said slowly: "The old man advises the little friend to put away your ambitions for the time being, don't be ambitious. First cultivated in this Minshan Continent to the point of looking forward to the golden pill, and then it was not too late to explore the others. ”
Yan Ning was a little baffled by the old man's sudden preaching.
I just asked casually, why did it cause him to be disappointed. It's just a matter of inquiring about the situation in Danzhou, how did it get involved with the grand ambition, could it be that there is any special reason for this?
So he was patient and continued to ask for advice: "I just have some expectations for the way of alchemy, and I also know that Danzhou is a holy place that all alchemists yearn for, so I have this question, and I hope that Taoist friends can give advice." ”
"Poof.... Do you have tens of thousands of spirit stones?" the old man in the green shirt asked with a somewhat disdainful sneer at Yan Ning's remarks.
Yan Ning's expression immediately twisted, and he cautiously looked at the old man in green shirt in front of him. Not knowing what he was up to, he shook his head.
"You look like that ghost, don't you think that the old man is going to beat you up? What are you kidding! How could my Wanbaolou break the gold-lettered signboard on one of your little foundation building early stage monks!" The old man in the green shirt seemed to be stimulated by Yan Ning's misunderstanding of his expression, dropped the scroll in his hand, stood up and said loudly.
Then he pointed his finger at Yan Ning, and said slowly: "It doesn't hurt to tell you! With your current cultivation, if you want to reach Danzhou on your own, it is undoubtedly wishful thinking." But if you have tens of thousands of spirit stones, it's a different story! We have a merchant ship in Huangshamen that goes to Danzhou, tickets... It's not expensive, just forty or fifty thousand spirit stones, do you have one?"
After listening to the old man's ridicule, Yan Ning was sullen and depressed.
Not to mention forty or fifty thousand spirit stones, even if he has cultivated so far, he has never seen so many spirit stones, and this old man doesn't know if he has cultivated at the top, such a big fire.
"Isn't there a more detailed record here?" Yan Ning didn't want to entangle with this old man, and said coldly.
"All the classics are listed in the catalog, as for the more detailed things......." After speaking, the old man in the green shirt tapped his temples with his fingers, and his expression was very arrogant.
"According to what Daoyou said, it seems that he has a ravine in his chest and hunts a lot?" Yan Ning asked with a sneer.
The old man in the green shirt stared at Yan Ning quite complacently, pretending to stroke his beard, and his expression was self-evident.
Yan Ning was uncomfortable by the arrogant appearance of the old man, and then thought of something, and sat down opposite the old man in the same leisurely manner.
With a wave of his sleeves, he said slowly: "I got a fragment by chance, and there are several rare texts recorded on it. I have also consulted many classics, but I still don't know what they mean. I think Daoist friends are also erudite people, so I think I should also make achievements in this area, right?"
"Hehe, boy! It seems that your parents didn't explain enough to you before you went out! I think that the richness of my Wanbaolou classics can be traced back to 100,000 years ago, how can you guess?" the old man in the green shirt snorted with contempt.
seemed to feel the contempt from Yan Ning, and continued angrily: "You don't need to provoke the old man, as long as you say that it is true, if the old man can't recognize it, the detailed information about Danzhou just mentioned will be presented, how about it!"
"Okay! With the words of the Taoist friend, I will be arrogant and ask the Taoist friend for advice! However, the fragment has long been damaged, and I remember a few lines of words clearly, so I will portray it for the Taoist friend to see. ”
After finishing speaking, Yan Ning took out a jade slip, carved two lines of text in it, and handed it to the old man.
This row of words was two lines that Yan Ning randomly picked out from the silver scroll outside the Lost Soul Valley. With the knowledge of his master and the Wind Spirit Venerable Yuanying Monk, and neither of them can recognize the above records, but there is nothing this old man can do.
It seems that the detailed information of this Danzhou is not easy to obtain!
The old man in the green shirt took the jade slip in a big way, and his divine thoughts infiltrated into it to check it.
"Huh... It's been a bit old. ”
"It's a little familiar, do you remember where you have seen it?" the old man said with a jade slip in his hand.
When Yan Ning heard this, he was shocked in his heart, but his face was silent: "Heh...!Daoist friends won't be deliberately perfunctory for a joke, right? Anyway, I don't recognize it below, and when the time comes, there is no way to verify what Daoist friends say casually, right?"
The old man said that he recognized it, so it was naturally well documented, and he would definitely convince you. You wait!" The old man in the green shirt waved his hand, and said with some swear.
Immediately, the old man turned and entered the room behind him, and there was a sound of rummaging through the cabinets, apparently rummaging through translations that could decipher the words.
After the tea, the old man in the green shirt took out a stack of classics and looked through them.
"There is! that's the kind of writing ... ”
After another half an hour, the old man held a simple jade slip in his hand and said to Yan Ning triumphantly.
Then, the contents of the ancient jade slip were mapped out, and Yan Ning was motioned to come forward and watch it together.
Then he pointed to the passage that Yan Ning gave him before, and translated it word by word: "According to the above record in this translation, this passage should say: From the cadre position to the bottom, between the circulation, you can go back and forth. In the Spirit Gathering Array, purity can be expected........"
“???..... It's a goddamn Gathering Array! I thought it was something awesome!" The old man muttered with some disappointment, and then showed off to Yan Ning very proudly, and said, "Boy, you can be convinced!"
At this moment, Yan Ning's heart was full of turbulent waves!
The two sets of formations recorded in this silver scroll are indeed used for gathering spirits and concealing spirits. However, its profundity and remarkable effect are by no means ordinary, that is, the formation of the Master Qingxu Daoist is praised by everyone, and it is regarded as an existence that far exceeds the current level of the formation of the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Now by mistake, the mystery has been solved!
Yan Ning pressed down his excitement and quickly thought about the next way to deal with it.
The jade slip in the hand of the old man in the green shirt must try his best to get it in his hand, and it can't arouse the suspicion of the other party.
Seeing Yan Ning's suspicious look, the old man chuckled, threw the jade slip over and motioned for him to check it out for himself, not minding Yan Ning at all taking the opportunity to comprehend the contents of the jade slip.
Yan Ning did not shirk it, took the jade slip, and carefully compared the contents.
A quarter of an hour later, Yan Ning got up and saluted the old man in green shirts, and suddenly said with admiration: "Daoyou is extremely knowledgeable, and I am very impressed and convinced!"
The old man was very satisfied with Yan Ning's change of attitude, and replied smugly: "You just admire the use of a fart!
"Isn't Daoist friend trying to blackmail you?" Yan Ning asked rhetorically.
"Nonsense! I am a dignified Wanbaolou, how can I do such a humiliating thing!" the old man in the green shirt retorted loudly as if he was stimulated.
Then, he continued with a pretentious gesture: "But the old man has also taken a lot of painstaking work in order to be able to decipher these words. Little friend, you can't let me, an old man, work in vain, right? This matter started because of you, and the old man didn't want to take advantage of you in vain, so this translation was sold to you for 3,000 spirit stones.......
After finishing speaking, the old man in the green shirt picked up the jade slip and got up, preparing to stuff it into Yan Ning's hand.
"There are just two sentences in this text, and they are all ordinary content, so it's useless to hold them below. Besides, these three thousand spirit stones are too expensive, Daoist friend, you are no different from blackmail, right?" Yan Ning turned sideways, did not take the jade slip, and said with a frown and resistance.
"No, no, no, as the so-called art is not pressing, if you can learn one more kind of writing, that is also your chance creation, maybe when will you use it in the future? This kind of writing can be traced back to a very long time, and it is also thanks to your boy who met the old man, three thousand spirit stones are not expensive at all!"
The old man in the green shirt once again took the jade slip and stuffed it into Yan Ning's hand, and comforted him in a bitter tone.
"I don't need this opportunity, and I am friendly and willing. Yan Ning responded coldly.
"No, no, no!" Xiaoyou listened to the old man. The truth in this is not as simple as you seem on the surface, with the old man's experience....... "The old man was not discouraged, and continued to persuade earnestly.
Next, the two had a long fight.
In the end, Yan Ning bought this jade slip at the price of a thousand spirit stones, and under the tireless and whimsical rhetoric of the old man in the green shirt, he looked quite helpless to buy this jade slip rubbing, with a depressed and unwilling expression.
The old man was satisfied, and went on to introduce other things.
"Be shy in the lower bag, say goodbye!" Yan Ning flicked his sleeves, ignoring the old man's chatter, and turned away angrily.
The old man didn't mind Yan Ning's tone, and sent him to the door enthusiastically, not forgetting to take care of him next time when he parted.
The waitress who was waiting outside, seeing that Yan Ning was not good after coming out, followed him cautiously, for fear of touching the moldy head and being affected by the pond fish.
Yan Ning forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, and tried her best to show a depressed appearance of being deceived.
What a surprise!
The two formations recorded in the silver scroll were previously praised by the master as surpassing the existence of the currently known formation system based on the drawings alone, which is enough to see how extraordinary they are. In his heart, the importance is only slightly inferior to that jade pendant and the mysterious thunder pillar in the sea of knowledge.
Now with only a thousand spirit stones, I can hold this opportunity in my hand, which is no different from falling out of thin air!
At the moment, he has no thoughts to visit this Wanbaolou and Xing'an City. Quickly find a relatively secluded place to settle down, and understand the mystery is the top priority.
