Chapter Eighty-Seven: Gifts
The girl saw that Zhang and his entourage had doubts, so she continued: "We are called under the Lingmu Tree here, and it is very famous in the vicinity. Listening to the older generation, there was originally a huge spirit tree here, covering the sky, people stayed under the tree, refreshed, but unfortunately it was destroyed. But that also means that we are a treasure trove of feng shui, don't you say?"
Zhang Yixing nodded.
Zhang and his entourage remembered that it was recorded in the Book of Flowers and Grass: Lingmu is the immortal in the tree, it is tortuously connected, layered, and there is a saying that 'leaning on the Lingmu tree for a long time, racing over the living immortals'. But I've never seen it, I didn't expect it to be here, but it's a pity that I can't see it.
The girl then said: "Since you are injured, then go to my house for treatment, I also have some spirit stones here, I can lend you first, but you must return them to me after you are injured." You spirit gatherers are so dark-hearted, you don't lack these spirit stones, right?"
Zhang Yixing thought to himself, since she was willing to help, it would be great, even if she had spiritual power, she also needed to raise it for a few days before she could fully recover. It's good to have a place to rest, of course.
So Zhang Yixing said: "Then thank you, may I ask what Taoist friend is called?"
The girl answered: "What kind of Taoist friend is not Taoist friend, my name is Jiang Ping, and everyone in our village is surnamed Jiang." ”
After Jiang Ping finished speaking, he walked up to Zhang and his party and carried him on his back.
Zhang Yixing crawled on Jiang Ping's soft back, and couldn't help blushing, he had never stayed on a girl's back like this, not even with Su Xiaolan, the two sometimes held hands, even the number of hugs was not much, how could he have thought of such a beautiful scenery.
Jiang Ping didn't know what Zhang Yixing thought, so she walked home with Zhang Yixing on her back.
Zhang Yixing was a little ashamed in his heart, Jiang Ping was simple and honest, and he had no worries, but it seemed that he had done something inferiorly, Zhang Yixing hurriedly collected his mind and began to think about how to start looking for Su Xiaolan.
When Jiang Ping arrived at the village with Zhang and his entourage on his back, there were more pedestrians in the village, and when someone saw Jiang Ping, they laughed: "Yo, Ping'er, where did you pick up someone and come back, people go out to pick up some spirit stones, magic weapons or something, why did you pick up a cripple and come back?"
Another person in the village said: "Then you don't understand, that's the fast son-in-law of Chenglong that Ping'er found for herself." What are the cripples afraid of, the cripples will not run to the city of no return, so that the little couple stays at home all day long, that is the endless tenderness and sweetness. ”
When they heard this, they all giggled.
When Jiang Ping heard this, he replied angrily:
"You tongue-chewers, you know all day long that you are foolish, and it is no wonder that your men never come back after they have run away to the city of no return. ”
After hearing this, the women who were laughing stopped laughing, and one of the women also reprimanded Jiang Ping: "Ping, why are you talking so viciously, we are just joking with you, why did you curse us? ”
Jiang Ping no longer spoke and hurried away.
Walking to a courtyard at the end of the village, Jiang Ping walked in, there was a vegetable field in the yard, a teenage girl was weeding in the vegetable field, seeing Jiang Ping enter the door, the girl shouted happily: "Sister, you are back, I have cleaned all the grass in the field." ”
Jiang Ping said with a smile: "Ling'er, quickly take out the recliner in our house and put it in front of the house." ”
The little girl answered crisply, and ran into the house to move the chaise longue in her house.
Put Zhang and his party on the recliner, Jiang Ping straightened up and rested, and the little girl named Ling'er leaned on Jiang Ping and looked at Zhang and his party curiously.
Zhang Yixing smiled at Ling'er, and the little girl ran away with a twist.
Jiang Ping then took away the trapped dragon rope and magic robe that Zhang and his party tied to their legs, washed the wound with water, smeared some commonly used drugs on it, and then retied it with a strap.
After cleaning up these, Jiang Ping took out a medium-grade spirit stone and handed it to Zhang and his party, so that Zhang and his party could absorb and recover by themselves.
Zhang and his entourage held the spirit stone in their hands and began to absorb it, and after a while, the spiritual energy began to circulate in the body, and the body immediately felt less heavy.
After waiting for the aura to turn a few times in the body, Zhang Yixing took out the storage bag, unsealed it, took out a jade bottle, first took two spirit pills, and then took out a few medium-grade spirit stones to absorb them.
Jiang Ping was cleaning Zhang Yixing's magic clothes on the side, watching Zhang Yixing's movements, he couldn't help but say: "You spirit gatherers really have too many spirit stones, and you have to take such an expensive pill to absorb a spirit stone, according to your words, how can it cost seven or eight spirit stones a day, right?"
Zhang Yixing was stunned for a moment: Seven or eight spirit stones? How is it possible? Just absorbing medium-grade spirit stones will cost four or five, and the spirit pill is only worth five lower-grade spirit stones, Zhang Yixing usually has to eat five or six of them, and a rough calculation will also cost more than five hundred low-grade spirit stones, I don't know how she calculates?
Zhang Yixing smiled and handed the jade bottle containing the elixir to Jiang Ping:
"This is nothing, it was refined with the help of a friend, and it is still good for the fusion of aura in the body. If you don't dislike it, just take it, it's a little bit of my heart. ”
Zhang Yixing had purchased a large number of elixirs when his father was curing his illness, and even made the elixirs on the market reluctant to sell them for a time, so the number of elixirs in his storage bag was the largest.
"Really? I'll have to try. As she spoke, she took the jade bottle, and when her divine sense looked inside, she was dumbfounded: there were no less than a hundred spirit pills in this bottle, and he gave it away so lightly, could he have any purpose?
Jiang Ping said to Zhang and his entourage with a serious expression: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
Zhang and his entourage saw that it had caused Jiang Ping's misunderstanding, and hurriedly took out a storage bag and explained to Jiang Ping:
"Jiang Daoyou, don't get me wrong, I still have a lot of spirit pills, and it is also appropriate to give some as a thank you, you see that I have a lot of spirit pills in this bag, which is enough for me. ”
Jiang Ping took the storage bag and looked at it, the jade bottles in the bag were so dense that he couldn't count them, so he was really wealthy, and he didn't look at this bottle of elixir at all.
Jiang Ping remembered what Zhang and his entourage said at this time, the flying magic weapon he had originally refined was damaged, and he was afraid that he could really refine the flying magic weapon.
"You can also refine weapons?" Jiang Ping asked suspiciously.
Zhang Yixing nodded: "I understand a little." When a monk cultivates, he has to come into contact with this alchemy and refining tool, and if he asks for help in everything, it will be too inconvenient. ”
Jiang Ping's eyes widened: "You can still alchemy, you can refine pills, you can refine weapons, and you are a spirit gatherer, so how many spirit stones do you have to spend to learn?"
Zhang and his entourage couldn't help but be curious: "Is it expensive for you to learn alchemy refining tools here?"
"Of course, not to mention the expensive, but also to test whether you have the qualifications for alchemy. If there is, you first have to hand over 200,000 spirit stones, and then you have to sell materials, and you have to honor those masters who taught you. If there is a person at home who learns alchemy or refining, you can't learn it without a million spirit stones, it depends on whether you can learn it or not, if you can't learn it, then the million spirit stones will be lost. ”
Jiang Ping said with some emotion.
When Zhang and his entourage heard this, they finally understood why Jiang Ping didn't even have a decent flying sword, and it would cost so much to cultivate the refiner, so the finished product would definitely not be cheap.
Through the conversation with Jiang Ping, Zhang and his entourage learned that the common currency here is the medium-grade spirit stone and the high-grade spirit stone, and the spirit stone in Jiang Ping's mouth generally refers to the medium-grade spirit stone.
After the lower grade spirit stone is produced from the spirit stone mine, it is directly ground into particles, and then it is bought by some people who grow spirit grass and spirit wheat and scattered in the ground to help the growth of the spirit objects in the field, and then around the field, a spirit gathering array is applied to prevent those spiritual qi from being lost.
In other words, the aura of this planet is abundant, and the natural tide of materials, pills, magic weapons, etc., coupled with some human factors, the price is even more outrageous, so that many people cannot afford to use pills and magic weapons, such as Jiang Ping has never used pills.
Jiang Ping can also harvest two or three hundred thousand medium-grade spirit stones by planting Lingmai every year, which can already be quite nourishing on the planet where Zhang and his party live, but here, it is a problem to buy a better flying sword, not to mention other magic weapons.
Therefore, the monks here either went to learn to become an alchemist or alchemist, or went to other places to try their luck, just to be able to buy those expensive pills that had to be bought when they were consuming the pill.
Now that you have a general understanding of this planet, after you recover, you should go to the City of No Return to see what clues there are.
Jiang Ping and Zhang Yixing had a conversation, and they knew that Zhang Yixing was worth a lot of money, and they were not at the same level as them, so they were invisibly a little estranged. Zhang and his entourage could only smile and let it go, after all, his first task was to find Su Xiaolan, and it was impossible for him to stay under this spirit tree for long.
A few days passed peacefully, in these few days, Zhang and his entourage were pondering the spirit gathering formation, the formation he saw was simply to enclose the field to prevent the spiritual energy inside from getting lost, but the land here was already full of spiritual energy, why not lead the spiritual energy deep in the land to the ground?
After his legs were a little better, Zhang and his entourage began to arrange the Spirit Gathering Array around the vegetable garden in the courtyard, and put the spiritual power line deep into the soil, and then connected it to the Spirit Gathering Array on the ground.
The Jiang sisters looked at Zhang and his entourage's movements, although they were curious, but they didn't ask out loud.
Finally it was time to separate, Zhang and his entourage took out a bottle of the Spirit Pill and three Kaiyuan Pills, and said to Jiang Ping:
"If you take too much of this elixir, you can also expand the meridians, you can also try it when you usually practice, don't buy it because they are expensive, otherwise when you cultivate to enter the Jindan, it will be too late to regret it. In addition, these three Kaiyuan Dan are used when you tie the Dan, you put it away, don't show it easily. ”
"The line is in trouble here, and there is some fate, there is a refining method and an alchemy method, you and your little sister can learn with your surname, don't believe in those qualifications, as long as you persevere, you will succeed." ”
The reason why Zhang and his entourage gave Jiang Ping so many things was because her good deeds themselves were priceless, and he wanted to let good people have good rewards.
Zhang and his entourage then hugged their fists: "Thank you for taking you in, I will leave, I hope we will see each other in the future." ”
Jiang Ping took the things handed over by Zhang and his entourage, and saw Zhang and his entourage turn around and walk out of the courtyard, and two lines of tears burst out of their eyes.
