Chapter 347: Transformation Vine
Kong Fang clasped his hands in front of his chest, squinted his eyes slightly, and carefully observed this 'ancient tree' that might have been formed by a transformation vine.
"It is very difficult for plant life to cultivate into demons, and one of their biggest difficulties is that it is difficult to grow into spiritual intelligence. If you can't open your spiritual intelligence, even if you can live for tens of thousands of years, you can't cultivate into a demon. Among the wide variety of plant-based lifeforms, there are some very special beings, who are born like other demon beasts, and can easily open their spiritual wisdom and thus start cultivation. And the metamorphosis vine is one of this special plant life. ”
The lifespan of plant life is very long, especially for those who have cultivated into demons. Like some big forces with profound backgrounds, they all like to cultivate such demon beast powerhouses. One of the reasons for this is precisely because of the long lifespan of plant life, which means that plant life can stay in the power of its own for a long time. Another reason is the innate nature of plant life, which likes to be quiet, does not want to move, and will stay in one place for thousands of years. And defensively, plant life also has a strong advantage.
Kong Fang's brows furrowed a little deeper, "If it is a transformation vine, judging from the ancient aura emanating from its body, it should have opened its spiritual wisdom a long time ago and cultivated into a demon." But there is no demonic energy on it at all, and it will be found and placed here, and it doesn't seem to have spiritual intelligence, otherwise it would not have allowed this kind of thing to happen. ”
"Could it be that I guessed wrong, this is not a transformation vine at all?" The more Kong Fang thought about it, the more confused he became, this 'ancient tree' did look very much like the transformation vine recorded in the Treasure Record, but its current situation made Kong Fang unable to determine whether his guess was correct or not.
At this time, Jiang Mengchen bought a dark green seedling that looked a little strange at the stall. And he stood on the edge of the street again. I don't even go to the stalls. If it weren't for Ziqing, she would still be here. Jiang Mengchen had already turned around and left this place, which was very dangerous for him.
It's just that if you leave at this time, you will inevitably be looked down upon by Ziqing, and it will become more difficult to pursue Ziqing in the future, so Jiang Mengchen is standing here with a hard head. Of course, this is also because Jiang Mengchen found that the person in the dark only dealt with him once, and then there was no movement, so he dared to continue to stand here.
"Arlo. You go and take care of Jiang Gongzi. Ziqing commanded the maid. Jiang Mengchen will have no problem anymore, he doesn't need to be taken care of at all, Ziqing said this to let the maid make way for Kong Fang. The maid listened to Jiang Mengchen's words before and did not give up her position, which made Ziqing a little unhappy in her heart, and her maid did not listen to her words.
It's just that immediately after Jiang Mengchen's body changed greatly, Zi Qing didn't care about reprimanding the maid, so the maid pretended to forget Zi Qing's words and still occupied a position.
At this time, Ziqing found that Kong Fang was still standing behind her maid, and couldn't help frowning and said to the maid.
"Just now. Jiang Mengchen suddenly suffered a great deal of pain, which must have something to do with the stall owner and this mysterious monk. It doesn't matter which of the two of them. It's better not to provoke or not to provoke at all. Ziqing knew very well in her heart that since the other party could secretly punish Jiang Mengchen, she could naturally punish them as well.
In Luofeng City, the most taboo thing is to provoke a mysterious powerhouse, because you have no idea if you will provoke a terrifying enemy for your family. This kind of thing has not happened in the history of Luofeng City, on the contrary, not only has it happened, but it is also a major event that shocked all the forces.
In fact, when Luofeng City was just built, it was not the two major sects and the four major families that ruled Luofeng City, but the five major families. Since its construction, Luofeng City's fame has spread rapidly, attracting many monks to come here, and the arrival of countless monks has made Luofeng City more and more prosperous.
And the two major sects and the five major families have also received great benefits from Luofeng City, which has made the confidence of the Seven Directions forces swell to a very terrifying point in just one or two hundred years, and the disciples of the sect have become more and more arrogant, completely treating Luofeng City as their own backyard and acting recklessly.
After that, the Chunhuo family, one of the five major families, and its clansmen provoked a very terrible existence in Luofeng City. That mysterious powerhouse would not have met a minor monk in general, and after the other party provoked him, he only punished him slightly. However, this member of the Chunhuo family felt humiliated, and he was unwilling to swallow his anger, so he returned to the family and found some elders to stand up for himself.
In those one or two hundred years, the confidence of the Seven Directions forces had swelled to a very crazy point, and they were suddenly bullied by outsiders on their own territory, and they didn't even know the strength of their opponents, so those elders immediately took action. This time it was terrible, and the strong man was furious, and all the people who came to take revenge were scattered on the street.
With so many people in his own clan killed, how could the Chunhuo family give up, so things quickly evolved to an even more terrifying point. The strong man killed the fire, and finally single-handedly broke into the Chunhuo family, relying on his own strength to uproot the entire Chunhuo family.
Since then, the forces that control Luofeng City have changed from seven to six. In that battle, the Chunhuo family was destroyed, and the remaining two major sects and the four major families were all frightened, and they were immediately awakened by fright, and hurriedly took the initiative to make amends, for fear of being implicated.
Since then, the Six Directions have formulated strict rules, which is why there is now Luofeng City. Therefore, even if Jiang Mengchen came from the Jiang family, one of the six major forces, he would not dare to act indiscriminately in this Luofeng City, because the consequences were not something he could bear at all.
Ah Luo was obviously taken aback by Jiang Mengchen's situation just now, and she didn't dare to fight against it again at this time, so she hurriedly walked towards Jiang Mengchen who was standing on the side of the street, and she didn't dare to look at Kong Fang in the process.
Someone in front of him gave up his position, and Kong Fang also walked up, and he could get closer to the stall, and he could also observe this strange 'ancient tree' more closely.
Seeing that Kong Fang was also interested in this 'ancient tree', the middle-aged stall owner's face immediately showed joy, someone was vying for it, it was a great thing for him, and he could sell it higher.
"Daoyou also want this ancient tree?" asked the middle-aged stall owner with a smile.
Kong Fang shook his head slightly, "If this girl doesn't want to, I will consider it." But if she plans to buy it. How can I win the love of men? After all, she chose it first. ”
A trace of disappointment flashed in the stall owner's eyes, and he still wanted to take the opportunity to raise the price, but it seemed that he couldn't do it. Ziqing turned her head to punch Kong Fang and nodded with a smile, and couldn't help but have a good impression of Kong Fang in her heart.
The stall owner looked at Ziqing, "You've been watching here for a long time, and you should have a decision, do you want this ancient tree?"
Ten million is really not a small number. With Ziqing's financial resources, she couldn't support it at all, but after she saw this 'ancient tree', she was attracted by the faint and simple atmosphere emanating from the 'ancient tree'.
"I want it. Ziqing gritted her teeth and made up her mind, but then Ziqing looked at the middle-aged stall owner with some embarrassment, pursed her lips slightly, and said embarrassedly: "That, I don't have so much green gold on me now, can you wait for me for a while?" I asked Ah Luo to quickly go back and get some money. ”
The stall owner didn't answer, but glanced at Kong Fang. It was found that although Kong Fang was observing the 'ancient tree', his expression was very calm. Obviously, the interest in the 'ancient tree' is not very high. Since there is no one to fight, the stall owner will not be a villain. He nodded and said, "Yes, but don't make me wait too long." ”
"Fellow Daoists, please rest assured. A smile bloomed on Ziqing's face, and she even turned to the woman in green and commanded: "Ah Luo, it's too slow to return to the family now, you take my token to the Treasure Building, borrow four million green gold from the Treasure Building first, and tell the steward of the Treasure Building, and I will repay the money immediately when I return to the family." ”
Saying that, Ziqing had an extra purple token with a cloud pattern in his hand, and the token was engraved with a 'purple' character on one side and a 'Qing' character on the other.
When the stall owner saw the token in Ziqing's hand, his eyes condensed slightly, "It turns out that it is the Zi family among the four major families, and the strength of the Zi family is stronger than the Jiang family, no wonder this kid surnamed Jiang will follow behind and be courteous." The stall owner glanced at the three of them and regained his composure.
Whether it is the two major sects or the four major families, they will not mess around in Luofeng City, and the stall owner will naturally not be afraid of these people from the six forces, otherwise he would not have said that about Jiang Mengchen before.
Seeing Ziqing take out his token, Jiang Mengchen was a little surprised, and the next moment, Jiang Mengchen understood that Ziqing definitely didn't bring enough money. Although their status is not low, there are also many young children in their respective families, which makes it not too much money for each person to share. You can take out millions of green gold, which still needs to be accumulated in normal times, otherwise it is very powerful to be able to take out hundreds of thousands of green gold.
Jiang Mengchen waved his hand to stop Ah Luo, who was about to leave, and said to Ziqing: "How much are you missing? If I have enough on me, I don't need to let Ah Luo run more." ”
"Isn't that good?" Ziqing hesitated.
Jiang Mengchen smiled indifferently, "What's wrong with this, let's say, how much worse are you, if you don't add mine, then Ah Luo still has to make a trip." ”
"I'm still four million away!" Zi Qing said embarrassedly, borrowing four million from others at once is indeed too much.
Jiang Mengchen showed a smile on his face, "It's a coincidence, I just have a little more than four million on me." ”
Ziqing got enough money, so she happily handed the storage ring to the stall owner, who took it and quickly lit it. Fortunately, there is the power of the divine soul, and you can know how many there are by scanning it, which is still very convenient.
Kong Fang, who was frowning and looking at the 'ancient tree', suddenly lit up, "This is indeed a transformation vine, but I don't know why there has been a change, I don't know if it is artificial or some kind of change in itself." ”
Kong Fang was not enthusiastic about the transformation vine, he had just embarked on the path of cultivation now, and he couldn't settle down at all in a short period of time, so he didn't need this kind of defensive type of dryad. In addition, even if he really chooses a plant-based life that can suppress the underworld, Kong Fang will not choose the transformation vine, which is also very precious among the known plant life, but it is not the top.
Kong Fang's gaze fell on the junction of the second branch and the trunk to the left of the transformation vine, where there was a slightly gray bark. The whole ancient tree is pale gray, and the small bark that is only the size of a fingernail is not conspicuous at all, and Kong Fang also carefully observed it several times, only to find that this area is slightly different.
In fact, even if other people find this place, they won't care, the bark is not the same color, which is really a normal thing. You must know that the color of the bark of the whole transformation vine in other places is also dark and light.
"Alright, this ancient tree is yours. The middle-aged stall owner returned the empty storage ring to Ziqing, and pointed to the ancient tree planted in the barrel with a smile on his face.
It is very rare that an ancient tree with an uncertain value can sell for 10 million.
Just as Ziqing was about to put away the transformation vine and leave, Kong Fang suddenly spoke at this time, "Do you think this is an ancient tree?" Kong Fang asked a very strange question.
Ziqing looked at Kong Fang in surprise, Ah Luo and Jiang Mengchen also looked puzzled, but after what happened before, neither of them dared to intervene anymore.
The stall owner also looked at Kong Fang strangely, wondering how Kong Fang could suddenly ask such a question, if Ziqing didn't think it was an ancient tree, how could he risk spending 10 million green gold to buy it.
"Hmm!" Ziqing was also very surprised, but nodded anyway.
Who knew that Kong Fang couldn't help but shake his head, and then said calmly: "If you really think so, then it will definitely not live for three hundred years!"
At this moment, several people present were stunned, just one thought would affect the life of an ancient tree......?
