Chapter 308: The Value of Spirit Stones

With Lin Dong's guarantee, He Zhi didn't spend much effort and smoothly borrowed the spirit stone from the Thousand Machine Pavilion. However, before the spirit stone arrived, He Zhi had to wait for a while.

Because the spirit stone may not be too precious to most advanced cultivators, even ordinary initiation monks. It can only be regarded as a necessary resource for their cultivation.

However, for just ordinary people, the spirit stone can be called a divine object that can be encountered but not sought.

Qianji Pavilion is in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, although it can also be called a strong party, and there is a Jindan real person behind it, but the people who do things in Qianji Pavilion are still mainly ordinary people.

Therefore, don't look at the huge power of the Thousand Machine Pavilion, but the spirit stone is still an extremely precious treasure for a certain branch of the Thousand Machine Pavilion, and it is absolutely impossible to lose.

If the six spirit stones were placed in the eyes of a Jindan real person, or even a spirit realm cultivator, they might be something that could not be cared about by smiling casually.

For example, when I was in the Shueisha trial before, those Jindan real people used to spend a lot of money and take out tens of thousands of spirit stones to gamble. It's as if spirit stones are just stones that can be picked up on the side of the road.

At that time, He Zhi had also heard those companions talk about the problem of spirit stones, because He Zhi was in the gambling game, and earned thousands of spirit stones for Tang Renli and Chen Keying!

It's just that because the person who paid the spirit stone at that time was a Jindan real person, and Tang Renli and Chen Keying were not embarrassed to show too much money in front of He Zhi.

So at that time, He Zhi didn't feel how amazing the huge sum of money he earned for the two of them.

And Tang Renli and Chen Keying didn't know He Zhi's situation, and at the same time, the two of them were also a bit of straight people, so they were not embarrassed to say to He Zhi at that time that they would share the spirit stone with him.

Of course, when they were separated at that time, Tang Renli and Chen Keying both specially greeted He Zhi. If He Zhi has any needs in the future, he only needs to open his mouth to them, and the two of them will definitely go to the soup and fire, and they will not give up. Well...... Although the two of them didn't say that, the meaning was roughly like this.

In short, He Zhi's situation was that because the level of the monks he had come into contact with before was a bit too high, he never knew how precious the spirit stone was.

It was only now that He Zhi finally knew that the spirit stone was not something that could be found everywhere in the cultivation realm as he imagined, and anyone could easily get it!

This can be seen from the reaction of Qianji Pavilion after agreeing to lend six spirit stones to He Zhi!

In the Thousand Machines Pavilion where the power of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is so huge, because of the six spirit stones, it still needs to be asked for instructions layer by layer and called from the headquarters in order to send these spirit stones!

Of course, the Thousand Machine Pavilion itself can also be regarded as the land of immortals, so unlike ordinary people, it may take a day or two to call something from the headquarters.

According to the person in charge of the Thousand Machines Pavilion, it would not take more than half an hour at most for them to send the spirit stone to He Zhi.

Since the other party said so, He Zhi could only continue to wait.

And while He Zhi was waiting for the six spirit stones sent by the Thousand Machine Pavilion, Lin Dong beside him also had to place bets. Since the two of them came together, He Zhi had nothing else to do, so he accompanied Lin Dong.

He Zhi soon saw that Lin Dong took out a lot of bills, pills, gold and silver and other things from his body, and then pushed them to the court, who was specially hired by the Thousand Machine Pavilion to evaluate the value of the items.

The courtier of the Thousand Machine Pavilion was very dedicated, and quickly divided Lin Dong's things into three parts. The first of them looked like the leftovers of a few spirit stones, or the fragments cut from a whole spirit stone.

The largest fragments of these spirit stones were about the size of a tiny thumb, while the smallest ones looked like they were the size of a diamond about a carat. All these spirit stones were carefully wrapped in several layers of cloth by Lin Dongzai, and placed in a sachet on his chest.

However, the courtier did not dislike these spirit stones for being too trivial, let alone laugh at Lin Dong for being too careful.

On the contrary, when Lin Dong took out these spirit stones, the courtier could be said to be a thousand times more careful than Lin Dong, carefully picking out all the spirit stones, and then carefully weighing the weight of each spirit stone fragment with a small scale.

After the weighing was completed, he also took out another object that looked a little similar to a copper mirror, but the material was very peculiar, and approached the spirit stone.

When the object approached the spirit stone, it immediately burst out with different colors of light.

He Zhi glanced at it, and the light that the object could emit was also like the spectrum of the sun, from red to purple. Among them, the best quality spirit stone is the red color, and the worse the quality of the spirit stone, the closer it will be to purple from the spectrum.

The quality of those spirit stones that Lin Dong took out was no longer the best. He Zhi also patiently glanced at it a few times, and saw that among Lin Dong's spirit stones, the best quality should be yellow with a little bit of orange. And the worst ones were a few blue spirit stones.

However, whether it was the best orange or the worst blue among these spirit stones, the attitude of the worshipper was also meticulous and extremely solemn.

Finally, after identifying all the spirit stones, the courtier looked through the other things that Lin Dong had taken out. When dealing with those things, Chaofeng's attitude was obviously much more generous, and he was completely less cautious when he touched the spirit stone before. The whole identification process lasted about a quarter of an hour.

When the courtier had read all of Lin Dong's things, recorded them in the booklet he carried, and counted them again, he finally arched his hand to Lin Dong and said, "Mr. Lin, these things you brought have a total of seventeen spirit stone fragments. According to my records, the total price of these spirit stone fragments is about equivalent to one spirit stone, plus about seven and a half percent. And then you have other gold and silver, pills, property contracts, and so on, which are roughly equivalent to three-and-a-half centime spirit stones. The total is two spirit stones and nine centimeters. Well...... We'll give you a whole thing, even if it's two spirit stones. What do you think?"

"Good. Lin Dong nodded again and again, obviously having a psychological valuation of the things he took out.

Originally, before the courtiers spoke, Lin Dong was still a little worried that the other party would deliberately lower the value of his things like those courtiers in the pawnshop. However, after listening to the words of the courtier, Lin Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

Qianji Pavilion's valuation of Lin Dong's bets was almost no different from Lin Dong's own estimate.

"I didn't expect that this Thousand Machine Pavilion is actually quite fair. After the courtier opened the gambling ticket, and then collected all the things that Lin Dong had taken out bits and pieces, Lin Dong couldn't help but whisper to He Zhi.

"Hmm. It is certain that Qianji Pavilion can do such a big business in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and it is certain that it will act fairly. He Zhi smiled and nodded.

In his previous life, although He Zhi was not easy to gamble, he had not been to a casino in Macau. For these regular casinos, they are absolutely unambiguous when it comes to making money. But for the VIP users of the casino, they will never show their childishness when accepting each other's collateral.

Because they are casinos, not pawnshops, they make money by attracting more gamblers to the casino to participate in the game, rather than making a little difference between the price of the collateral.

Of course, He Zhi's focus at this time was different from Lin Dong's. He didn't care about the big style of Qianji Pavilion, but focused more on the value of the spirit stone.

Because He Zhi could see it clearly, the courtier just now said to Lin Dong, "His spirit stone was originally worth two pieces and nine cents. However, for the sake of Lin Dong is an important customer, so Qianji Pavilion will give him an additional share of the spirit stone and give him a whole whole", although the courtier tried his best to show that he had nothing to do, He Zhi clearly saw that there was a flash of envy on his face at that time.

You must know that this courtier can hold such a position as item identification in the Thousand Machines Pavilion, and it is obvious that among the ordinary people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he can be regarded as a "high-income group".

But such a high-income courtier, when talking about such an insignificant number as "one cent", he couldn't help but show an envious expression!

It was because of this expression that He Zhi once again confirmed that this spirit stone was probably much more valuable than he originally imagined!

Just think about it, a bronze sword disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who is only fifteen or sixteen years old can be regarded as a genius with a bright future, right?

But such a genius disciple, from the beginning of the introduction to the present, he has accumulated an unknown amount of time, and all the savings he can take out are just a little more than two spirit stones!

From this point of view, the six spirit stones lent to He Zhi by the Thousand Machines Pavilion were really an astonishing amount of money!

Just when He Zhi and Lin Dong were both silent, thinking about their hearts. The courtier of the Thousand Machines Pavilion quickly hurried back and handed over a receipt of gambling receipts to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong put the bill away closely, and then waited with He Zhi.

Of course, He Zhi and Lin Dong each made a bet of two spirit stones in the Tianji Pavilion, and for the Qianji Pavilion, these two people are out-and-out big customers!

Therefore, when the two of them were resting, the maids in the Thousand Machines Pavilion kept coming forward and seduced the two to participate in other gambling games in the Thousand Machines Pavilion.

For the casinos in this world of immortals and demons, He Zhi is also a little curious. Although he didn't have any interest in participating in the gambling game, he was quite kind to He Zhi when he visited the casino.

So, He Zhi found a maid who looked very clever, and asked the other party to take it with him, and walked around in the Thousand Machines Pavilion. And Lin Dong was obviously in a state of extreme tension because he had just staked all his net worth in the Thousand Machines Pavilion.

He Zhi was very interested in visiting the Thousand Machines Pavilion, but Lin Dong was not interested. Although he has been following He Zhi's side, his eyes are nervously looking at the light curtain with the odds every once in a while, as if he is afraid of any changes in the odds on the light curtain about Huangfu Tianchi.

This situation lasted until the account office of the Thousand Machine Pavilion sent the four spirit stones that He Zhi needed, and it was considered to be over.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of fierce dart masters, He Zhi took over the four spirit stones he needed from the account office of the Thousand Machine Pavilion. Then, He Zhi did not continue to stay in the Thousand Machines Pavilion, but directly left the Thousand Machines Pavilion and rushed towards the teleportation array.

Originally, He Zhi was still a little worried that he had borrowed a huge amount of money like six spirit stones from the Thousand Machine Pavilion, and the Thousand Machine Pavilion would not have any scruples and not let him leave.

However, it turns out that He Zhi is overly worried. Regarding the fact that He Zhi left the Thousand Machines Pavilion immediately after getting the spirit stone, the steward of the Thousand Machines Pavilion didn't even ask a word.

Obviously, he had absolute confidence in the Thousand Machine Pavilion's power in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Within the sphere of influence of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, no one could rely on the accounts of the Thousand Machine Pavilion, let alone want to abscond with the money.

Even if he runs to the ends of the earth, Qianji Pavilion is completely sure that he can chase him back!

However, not long after He Zhi left the Thousand Machines Pavilion, he soon found out that Lin Dong actually ran out with him.

This genius young man of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect still had a straight face, looking nervous.

"Hmm, Lin Dong, why did you come out with you, don't you stare at the Thousand Machine Pavilion anymore?" He Zhi couldn't help but smile and joke to him when he saw Lin Dong's appearance.

"Don't stare at it. Anyway, it's what it should be. The bets have already been bet, whether it is good or bad, in the end, it all depends on the performance of Senior Brother Huangfu. Even if I keep staring at the Thousand Machines Pavilion, what can I do? Senior Brother Huangfu performs well, and I can win. Senior Brother Huangfu didn't perform well, and I still want to lose?" Lin Dong seemed to want to open at this moment.

"Oh, so you came with me? What, is it that I'm not at ease?"

"Not really. You are my senior brother, four or five spirit stones and other things are a big deal for me, and for you are not just a casual matter, senior brother? I am really bored in the Thousand Machines Pavilion, and there is no place to go at this time, so I just follow you to join in the fun, senior brother. I just don't know if it's convenient for Senior Brother?" Lin Dong smiled very shyly and asked He Zhi.

"Hehe, you can follow if you want, I'm not inconvenient. He Zhi naturally knew that although Lin Dong said that he was not worried about himself, in fact, it was mostly out of this consideration.

After all, He Zhi had seen it before, and Lin Dong really had an unusual vigilance about money. However, He Zhi didn't plan to go and never return, Lin Dong wanted to follow, so He Zhi naturally let him follow.

Moreover, He Zhi always felt that it was more convenient for him to act within the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and a genuine disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect by his side than to act alone.
