Volume 1: The Forsaken Land Chapter 16: Each Carries a Ghost
"The other kind of people, speaking of which, have a lot to do with Qinglingmen itself. Some of the distant relatives and juniors of the elders in the sect, or those low-level cultivators who took care of the direct property of the Qingling Sect, could directly participate in the entrance test.
Hearing what Yu Hongzhi said, Kong Laosan understood that there are tens of billions of mortals in the world, and there is no one in ten thousand mortals who can have spiritual roots, even so, but compared to the huge population, there are not a few people who have spiritual roots, these people either step into the immortal path because of some coincidences, or enter those immortal cultivation sects to break away from the mundane. However, most of these people's talents are not very outstanding, and many of them have only cultivated for decades and only refined five or six levels of qi, so a large number of them give up continuing to cultivate, go to the world, marry wives and have children, and live a rich life.
After these people stepped into the world, the possibility of the appearance of spiritual roots in the descendants greatly increased, and gradually formed large and small immortal cultivation families, these immortal cultivation families are large and small, and the spiritual root talents of the younger generations are different, and the three major immortal sects of the Great Qin Kingdom naturally have many immortal cultivation families attached to them.
The ancestors of these immortal cultivation families may be disciples of a certain immortal cultivation sect, and they are more or less inextricably linked with the immortal cultivation sect, and it is precisely because of this that for the descendants of these immortal cultivation families, these immortal cultivation sects will give some special care.
Every time a disciple is recruited, the children of these immortal cultivation families only need to complete the tasks assigned by the sect, and they can successfully enter the immortal gate and become outer disciples.
"What do you say have to do with us joining the Qingling Sect?"
Kong Laosan thought about it, and still asked with some doubts.
"Of course it has a lot to do with it! But I can't tell you for the time being, so let's go to the nearby Xianmenfang City first, let's go to the nearby Xianmenfang City first, to change some self-defense things, if the plan is successful, we will be brothers in the same division in the future, and we will have to take care of each other then!"
Yu Hongzhi's eyes rolled, but he sold it.
Kong Laosan thought about it, but he didn't refuse, but he didn't agree immediately, "There are still some things in the past few days, if it's convenient for Daoyou, we will meet here in ten days, and I will give you an explanation then, how about it?"
Hearing this, Yu Hongzhi pondered for a moment, frowned and then relaxed, "That's fine, but I'm afraid it's a little too late in time, so let's do it, you give me an answer in seven days, if you're not interested, I'll find someone else!"
Kong Laosan thought for a while and nodded, but he had no intention of leaving.
Seeing this, Yu Hongzhi showed a look of surprise, and before he could speak, Kong Laosan showed a smile, "I left home in a hurry, penniless, if it is convenient for Taoist friends......"
Before Kong Laosan finished speaking, Yu Hongzhi's face shook fiercely, and he already regarded Kong Laosan as a stunned young man who had just left the family, cultivating immortals was going against the sky, competing for resources, competing for that glimmer of hope, even if it was a loved one, the two had just met for a short time, and they opened their mouths to borrow money, so that Yu Hongzhi was speechless and at the same time had a little wavering in the cooperation he had just proposed, is it appropriate to cooperate with such a stunned young man?
Yu Hongzhi thought like this in his heart, and was just about to find an excuse to refuse, but he heard Kong Laosan's voice change, "If it's convenient for Daoyou, I have some pills here that I want to trade with Daoyou!"
As soon as these words came out, Yu Hongzhi swallowed the words that came to his lips raw, "Pill?!"
Yu Hongzhi said with some surprise, and his eyes were immediately infected with a trace of heat.
In the world of cultivating immortals, in addition to the spiritual root qualifications and immortal cultivation techniques, the most important thing is those medicinal herbs and spiritual herbs, after these heaven and earth spiritual materials are practiced into pills by alchemists, they either directly improve the spiritual power in the body of immortal cultivators, or prolong life and rejuvenate themselves, with all kinds of incredible miraculous effects, but there are few alchemists in the immortal cultivation world, and almost all of them are collected by those big sects.
If you want to become an excellent alchemist, in addition to being talented, the most important thing is to have enough medicinal materials to practice and test the medicine, alchemists are different from those ordinary pharmacists in the world, controlling the fire condensing pill requires a lot of practice to improve the success rate, not to mention those rare pills that can directly improve spiritual power, even if it is an ordinary detoxification pill such as Qingling Pill, it doesn't matter if you refine one or two bottles, if it is refined into hundreds or thousands of bottles, even those wealthy immortal cultivation families can't afford it, only those big sects that have been inherited for thousands of years.
The scarcity of alchemists has also caused the preciousness of the elixirs in the immortal cultivation world, and the qi-replenishing pills that can directly increase the cultivation speed are even more difficult to find, so when he heard that Kong Laosan wanted to trade some pills, Yu Hongzhi's first reaction was not surprise, but suspicion, until Kong Laosan took out four or five different bottles from his waist pocket, and Yu Hongzhi's eyes revealed a trace of greed and fiery.
"These are all pills?!"
Yu Hongzhi swallowed his saliva and said with some uncertainty.
"That's right, I brought these things with me when I came out of the family, but I only trade them to people who know the goods, if you can't recognize them, I won't trade how many spirit stones I give!"
Kong Laosan crossed his arms around his chest, looking disapproving, and Yu Hongzhi, who was in surprise, had already been carried away by the pill in front of him, and as soon as Kong Laosan's words fell, Yu Hongzhi couldn't wait to pick up the medicine bottle on the table and carefully identify it.
"Qingling Pill, Intermittent Pill, Breath-Holding Pill, this is ...... The marrow washing pill turned out to be the marrow washing pill!"
Yu Hongzhi looked at the bottles as if he was going crazy, but when he picked up a bottle in his hand and poured out a light yellow broad bean-sized pill, he suddenly screamed in surprise, as if he had a child with a beloved toy, and almost jumped up. Seeing this, there was a trace of doubt in Kong Laosan's eyes, but he didn't speak rashly, as long as he remembered the name of the pill and looked back for a chance to check some classics.
Most of the bottles and jars that I got from the vicious Taoist at the beginning, except for a limited number of commonly used healing medicines, did not know them, but now in Yu Hongzhi's exclamation, I recognized them one by one.
"Hehe, Daoyou's eyesight is really vicious, how many spirit stones does Daoist give for this bottle of pill?"
Hearing what Kong Laosan said, Yu Hongzhi finally came back to his senses from the surprise, his face changed several times, and finally let out a long breath, "Why is there only half of the marrow washing pill in the bottle?
"These are all I brought with me when I went out, and now I only have so many on me, if I don't need spirit stones urgently, I won't sell anything!"
Hearing this, Yu Hongzhi squinted a pair of small eyes, and he didn't know if he believed Kong Laosan, but he didn't say anything again.
After thinking about it, he loosened the tightly wrapped belt, pulled out a long, bulging gray cloth bag from the belt, and shook his hand, a bunch of jujube kernel-sized, colorful, and smooth jade that exuded a faint spiritual power shook out of it, and counted it carefully, there were more than twenty pieces, but at this moment, Yu Hongzhi had a bitter face, licked his lips and said, "According to the market price, a spirit stone can probably buy three marrow washing pills, if there are ten marrow washing pills on the body of the Daoist, and some other pills, these spirit stones can be taken all." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Kong Laosan expectantly.
Seeing Yu Hongzhi's appearance, Kong Laosan frowned, it seems that the value of this marrow washing pill is much higher than he imagined, but there is no room for relaxation, "There are only so many!"
Hearing Kong Laosan say this, Yu Hongzhi laughed dryly, just now he said in his heart that the other party was stunned, the two had just met and wanted to borrow money from themselves, but now they have changed to themselves, the pill is already scarce, especially this kind of pill that can directly increase the spiritual power of qi refining cultivators, it is even more difficult to find, if there is, which one should not take it early? In the final analysis, the immortal cultivation world is still respected by strength, and strength is the foundation of everything.
Yu Hongzhi also thought about killing people and snatching treasures in his heart, but he thought of his own strength...... Coupled with the fact that he couldn't figure out the strength of the other party, with Yu Hongzhi's cautious and fearful temperament, he could only suppress the greed in his heart.
After collecting more than ten spirit stones, Kong Laosan waved his sleeves and turned to leave.
It's just that Kong Laosan, who turned around, didn't see a trace of discoloration when Yu Hongzhi looked at his back, and Yu Hongzhi also didn't see a sneer on the corner of Kong Laosan's mouth, the two of them had their own thoughts, but they couldn't figure out each other's intentions.
