"Hmm~!?It's five million taels, isn't that the amount that the adults just quoted?"

Meng Jie was confused by them, and asked in a trembling whisper, for fear that these two ancestors would say nothing. He had managed to get all the money together, and it would be a disaster if they sat on the ground and raised the price again.

Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen, after the two of them were shocked, Xiao leisurely gently pulled Yue Da's clothes in the direction that Meng Jie couldn't see, coughed lightly and opened the wooden box, just took a cursory look at the thick stack of silver tickets inside, and then closed the lid and put it in the storage bag.

"In this way, thank you to the shopkeeper Meng! We still have official business, and we will leave. ”

After saying that, he smiled leisurely and nodded lightly at Meng Jie, and then pulled Yue Daring and left quickly.

"The two adults go slowly, remember to visit the shop again if you have good goods in the future!"

Standing at the gate of the Soul Purification Pavilion and watching the two walk away, Meng Jie waved and shouted at the top of his throat, until he saw the two of them, he threw the kettle in his hand with satisfaction, and returned to the store humming a little song with a smile on his face.

After turning the corner of the two streets and making sure that no one was following behind, the two of them dodged into a darker and secluded alley. With their backs to the wall of a private house, the two looked at each other breathlessly, and the excitement and tremor of the other were already beyond words.

"This ...... Goodo...... There are really five hundred...... 10,000 taels?!"

Yue boldly swallowed and spat at the mouth, and asked with a trembling voice pointing to the wooden box that was held in his hand by Xiao You.

"Wait for me to count...... One...... 2. ......"

smiled leisurely and hurriedly opened the lid and counted, and the cloud light wind that was pretended just now had already been thrown to the ends of the earth. Counted carefully a few times, each silver ticket with a face value of 10,000 taels happened to be 500, one was not much, and one was not too much, and he smiled leisurely before he covered the box and put it away.

"This ...... Is it really okay?" Yue Daring was still a little entangled in this matter.

"Big brother, don't worry, it's absolutely fine!"

Xiao nodded leisurely, and then told him what happened.

According to Xiao Youran's analysis, since this Ecstasy Soup Mansion chose to sell at a sky-high price instead of providing it for free, its own cost is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to control the flow of the market. And learned from Yue Daring that the prefecture still had an explicit prohibition of reselling without permission, which confirmed the speculation in his heart.

Ecstasy soup is a necessary thing to open the cultivation of the earthly realm, and the reason why the market must be strictly controlled is because the cultivation resources of the capital city are limited, and it cannot supply too many cultivators.

However, with such a large capital city and a large number of various sects, families and other forces, it is difficult to ensure that the distribution is evenly distributed if the descendants or henchmen of the family do not have some proud descendants or henchmen and the like who have not been proud.

Since there is demand and channels, driven by huge profits, there are naturally people who are willing to take risks and choose to prohibit the sale, and among them, the people of the Meng family are the first to bear the brunt.

However, the Meng family did not recycle it for sale, but for cleaning it up. After all, the Ecstasy Soup is the exclusive property of the Meng family authorized by the underworld, and it is bound to affect the income and status of the entire Meng family.

This is the origin of the secret that the recipe of ecstasy soup or Meng Po soup is the secret of the Meng family, and it is also the fundamental reason why the ban comes from the ancestor of the Meng family.

It is precisely because of the complicated relationship between the various forces in the capital city that in order not to make enemies everywhere, although the Meng family issued a ban on the surface, in fact, they were also recycling it privately, and they bid higher than others. If you encounter a person with poor strength and low background, there may really be a matter of killing people and overselling goods, but if there is someone to rely on, the Meng family has to choose to swallow their anger and make money in harmony.

After listening to the leisurely explanation, Yue Daring suddenly realized, admired his brother's mind so much, praised it in his mouth, and gave a thumbs up on his hand. Under his inquiry, he gave a brief introduction to the distribution and current scale of some of the various forces in the capital city that he knew, and Xiao Youran kept all this information in mind in case he could pay attention to or avoid it in the future.

Then the two of them discussed how to use this huge amount of money, and Xiao Youran suggested that after paying off the debt first, they would set aside a part of it for the purchase of real estate when they moved into the inner city in the future, and the rest would buy some pills or materials to assist in cultivation, so as to improve the cultivation of the two as soon as possible.

Yue Daring repeatedly pushed back this arrangement, saying that as long as the debt was paid off, it would be a great help, so how could he be embarrassed to share the rest? After all, all this money was exchanged for the ecstasy soup he had gotten, how could he, the eldest brother, be embarrassed to take more.

"Why is the eldest brother so hypocritical, what is mine is yours, and yours is also mine, do we still need to be so clear?"

Under Xiao Youran's strong insistence, Yue Daring had no choice but to nod in agreement, and was secretly grateful in his heart, this brother didn't admit it in vain! When Xiao Youran said this, he thought in his heart, my money is yours, and your treasure gun is also mine, don't say that the little brother is not kind, the treasure fell into dust in your hands, it is better for me to help you take care of it, hehehe......

On the way back, the two of them smiled happily, looking forward to the pleasure of spending a huge amount of money, so that they forgot the distance of the journey and the physical and mental exhaustion, and only felt that they would be home in the blink of an eye. After the dinner carefully prepared by Mrs. Yue, they said goodbye and went back to their rooms to rest.

When the day was approaching, on the bed in the guest room, Xiao leisurely stretched and lay there.

I had just run that introductory exercise for ninety-nine hours, but the soul qi vortex as before did not appear again, and although my cultivation had increased slightly, it had only reached the Great Perfection from the late stage of the Condensing Yin Realm, and the sea water in the Sea of Consciousness was only a small handful.

Several attempts to break through the small realm ended in failure, as if there was an invisible barrier lying there, untouchable and insurmountable, which made him puzzled.

Is this a bottleneck?

But this is only a breakthrough in a small realm, how can there be a bottleneck?

Moreover, in terms of the current state of his Dao body, although it is broken, his qualifications are not so low that he can't even break through this first small realm, right?

After thinking about it, he couldn't figure out the essentials, so he chose a few advanced exercises from the waist card and tried them one by one, but was surprised to find that they couldn't be connected at all, because the most basic requirement for those exercises was to cultivate to break through the Yin Condensation Realm and reach the early stage of the Pure Thought Realm.

"The Tao body is flawless, and the Tao is self-contained...... Taoism...... Taoism...... Hmm~?Taoism?!"

muttering to himself, Xiao Youran suddenly remembered the jade pendant that Xiao Ling'er and her mother gave her, or rather, remembered the Taoist method called "Silent Xuantongyuan" recorded in the jade pendant.

But the Dao method is all obtained from the epiphany after the ascension of the Dao, and it is specially born for the cultivation of the Dao body, and it is not an extraordinary realm exercise, how can it include the cultivation method of the lower realm of the Yellow Order? But since I thought of it, why not give it a try, anyway, it will not solve the current problem, it is better to treat a dead horse as a live horse doctor, in case the blind cat encounters a dead mouse?

When he first got it, he couldn't use it because he didn't have cultivation and divine thoughts, but now it's different. After taking it out, a wisp of divine thought was wrapped in cultivation and sent into it, and the jade pendant began to glow faintly.
