"Then I'll go to the Long family and Tong family again to see what's going on." Shen Tuqi said.
"You don't need to go. The Long family couple are now working in the department's skill inheritance system and are busy every day. There were no conditions before, but now that there is enough spiritual energy, various magic weapons will naturally be refined.
As for the Tong family, after I asked Mr. Tong about the details of the spiritual grass needed for Zongheng Dan, their whole family went into seclusion to concentrate on their cultivation. They said that they would just wait until Tong Tong established the foundation to meet him. So you don’t need to go to these two houses, just go back to retreat! "
Shen Tuqi didn't expect that in such a short period of time, everyone had arranged their days in such an orderly and prosperous way, so he said happily:
"Then I will help Guan Yu pick up something and go back to retreat. You should also practice well!" Shen Tuqi warned him again before leaving.
Mr. Shentu waved his hand and watched his grandson leave. He told himself to get used to it because his grandson had a better way to go. Then he laughed again, shook his head and said:
"Little old man, I'm going to go into seclusion too!"
After Shen Tuqi saw the detailed list of purchases from Duan Jisui, he couldn't help but be surprised by Guan Yu's meticulousness. Then he took the storage bag and returned to the cave.
More than a month later, the foundation of the dragon core was successfully established, and it was Shen Tuqi who protected the body.
In April of the following year, Yan Feiyue and Tong Yi woke up from meditation after making mistakes.
There was only a small difference in cultivation between the two, and Yan Feiyue's Dantian was originally larger than all the monks, so the two of them could be said to be building the foundation at the same time, so Qi Guanyu protected them both.
"I'll refine a few furnaces of foundation-building pills first. Ah Yue, please protect me." Tong Yi summoned the intermediate-level pill furnace as soon as she succeeded in building the foundation.
"No problem." Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu were sitting on the hillside, watching Tongtong make alchemy.
As Tong Yi's cultivation level increased, her understanding of alchemy became stronger and stronger, and three top-quality elixirs were produced in the first furnace.
Then Tong Yi took out the strange fire this time and used it to refine three ordinary top-grade elixirs. These three pills were one for each of Dragon Dad, Long Mom, and Duan Jiji.
This does not mean that you are taking the risk, but there is no need to let relatives who do not know the truth take risks.
Yan Feiyue handed Tongtong the jade bottle containing a top-grade elixir that she had reserved earlier. After watching her fill two bottles, the three of them went down the mountain with their swords.
Naturally, their first stop was the Tong family. When they arrived, they found that the Tong family already had several little medicine boys, all in their teens.
After Tong Yi explained her purpose, she saw the little drug boy running away in a hurry, which confused Tong Yi and Yan Feiyue.
Qi Guanyu explained: "Before Shen Tu, I brought back news that the entire Tong family was in retreat."
While he was talking, everyone from the Tong family came out to greet him.
Tong Yi could tell at a glance that her grandfather was at the fifth level of qi training. He was also much younger. He used to look like he was eighty or ninety years old, but now he looked thirty or forty years younger and had returned to his original appearance. Appearing to be in his fifties or sixties;
The spiritual roots of Tong's father and Tong's mother are slightly worse, they are both at the third level of Qi training, but they look more than ten years younger, in their early forties;
As for Tong Shan, the changes are really great. His spiritual foundation was already very good. After this year of seclusion and hard training, he is now at the seventh level of Qi training, and his appearance is becoming more and more elegant.
"Tongtong has established a foundation." Master Tong said happily.
"Yes, Grandpa. I came down the mountain this time to give away the Foundation Establishment Pills. There are seven pills in total, including my sister-in-law's and my aunt and uncle's." Tong Yi took out two bottles of different colors and handed them to her. Gave it to Mr. Tong.
"Okay." When Mr. Tong saw that the colors were different, he knew that he needed to look at the quantity inside. Naturally, everyone else in the Tong family also knew.
"Tongtong, Ayue, you are going to stay for a few days after leaving seclusion this time. Mom will arrange your favorite dishes."
The child mother looked at her daughter who was getting more and more mature, and her heart felt sour. The burden on her daughter's shoulders was really too heavy. Fortunately, she still had a partner who could trust her with her life.
"We have to go back at the end of the month. Wei Sheng should be out of seclusion next month to build foundations, and Guan Yu has to go back to protect the law." Tong Yi held her mother's hand and asked again:
"Mom, why don't you see Grandpa Weisheng?"
"After your grandpa Weisheng came with us, he became younger and in better health. He found a job as a librarian in the department's administrative system, sorting out the magic books every day. He is currently at work. In the afternoon You can see it soon." Father Tong said.
"Grandpa Weisheng sold all his current assets in mainland China and exchanged them for spirit stones. He left enough pension money here and said that the rest will be given to you and Weisheng." Tong Shan said and took out a savings account. bag and handed it to Tong Yi.
Tong Yi looked at the storage bag in her hand, feeling indescribable helplessness and sadness in her heart. She raised her eyes and said to her brother:
"I'll accept this first. I'll discuss it with Wei Sheng when we get back and divide the spirit stones in it into three parts. He, I, and Grandpa Wei Sheng will each have one share."
"It should be so." Mr. Tong nodded with satisfaction.
"Then this must be a large sum of spiritual stones. The department's inventory may not be enough, right?"
Yan Feiyue was simply curious. After all, Grandpa Weisheng was the richest man, with assets worth hundreds of billions. Even with an exchange ratio of 1:, this was tens of millions of low-grade spiritual stones! Even if it is exchanged for medium-grade spiritual stones, it will still cost hundreds of thousands of yuan!
"You forgot, there are spirit stone veins here." Tong Shan looked at his cousin and explained in a funny way.
"Oh oh oh, I'll just say it!" Yan Feiyue complained silently in her heart as her department was also very poor.
"Then let's go to the department to buy some spiritual herbs first, and we can also pick up Grandpa Weisheng after get off work." Tong Yi said.
"Okay, you go! Let's have a reunion dinner tonight." Mr. Tong said cheerfully.
After Yan Feiyue, Qi Guanyu, and Tong Yi left for a while, they arrived at the department. But before they entered, they met an old acquaintance. Ou Yicheng saw the three of them and immediately came up to say hello:
"What a coincidence among the Taoists!"
"It's a coincidence, Ou Dao, let's go shopping. Who are you?" Yan Feiyue asked curiously when she saw Ou Yicheng wearing a long gown.
"Fellow Taoist Yan doesn't know something. After the monks came here, they indulged in practicing all day long and became a little slovenly. They just wore whatever was convenient for them. I also dressed like this for the convenience of meditating." Ou Yicheng said sheepishly.
"I see." Tong Yi then realized that there were people wearing everything on the street, including Hanfu, Taoist robes, gowns, pajamas, and sportswear, but no one was wearing suits and leather shoes.
"I come here every day. If you need anything, I can be a tour guide." Ou Yicheng said. Anyway, my trip today is probably in vain. It would be good to just chat with the boss.
"Okay." Qi Guanyu rarely said.
The door of the department faces east and west. As soon as a few people step in, they will see an endless long street. On the right side of the street are neatly arranged shops, some of which are already open for business, and some of which have leasing signs posted on them; On the left side of the street are some small vendors setting up stalls.
Seeing the confusion of several people, Ou Yicheng explained: "The shops in the row on the right were built by the department. They have all the shelves and counters inside. They are popular shops that even if you want to rent, don't look at the The sign for rent is because the department is also weighing who it should rent to.
As for the temporary stall on the left, it is a one-meter square location. In one week, you can collect a low-grade spiritual stone. You can rent it with other monks based on the number of days, or you can rent a place based on the area. When we entered the door just now, the first shop on the right was for handling leasing business and maintaining public order. "
"This is quite good. The gap between the rich and the poor has been taken into consideration." Yan Feiyue thinks this is good.
"There are many places to be developed in the secret realm, and there are also many tasks. As long as you are willing to take on the tasks, you can earn spiritual stones. It's not like there were more monks and less rice than before, but now there are more rice and less monks." Ou Yicheng explained.
"So what shops are open here now?" Tong Yi asked curiously.
"Restaurant, inn, pawn shop, and garment shop, these are the four. The restaurant is owned by the Fang family, the inn is owned by the Duan family, the pawn shop is owned by the Shentu family, and the garment shop is owned by the Hua family." Ou Yicheng He glanced at the three of them and said cautiously.
"It seems like everyone has class privileges wherever they go!" Yan Feiyue sighed.
"That's right!" Ou Yicheng whispered.
Several people were too lazy to care about this sour grape.
"Is there no elixir shop? Where can I buy it?" Tong Yi asked.
"Fellow Taoist Tong, you also know the environment in the modern mainland. Some families may not even have a Breitling Grass. Although the current environment is better, the foundation must be accumulated. Now only the department should be able to afford it, but there are still Preparation period." What Ou Yicheng said was completely true, but what he didn't say was that the Tong family should be able to afford it.
"Are those kinds of seeds for sale?" Tong Yi asked again.
"You can check if this is available at the stalls. In order to seek development, some small families have been selling unused family inheritances during this period. There are all kinds of things," Ou Yicheng recommended.
Then, Tong Yi bought the seeds of Juegucao for refining Juegudan at the stall, as well as the seeds of the two main herbs required for refining Zonghengdan, including Tongcao and Gouji.
Finally, I saw Shi Shui Ning, the only mineral ingredient in Zongheng Dan, at a stall.
This kind of ore grows under the accumulated salt of the brine ground. The essence seeps into the soil and condenses into stone over time. Opening the black cotton wrapping first, you will find that both pieces have teeth and are as clear as crystal, indicating that they are fully grown.
"Fellow Taoist, I got these two pieces of water-condensed stone in a deep valley. There are only a few of these that have grown. I dug them out. These are the last two pieces. One hundred middle-grade spiritual stones. No negotiation. "The stall owner said, not many people knew this thing, and most people couldn't use it, so he bought it whenever he could.
As soon as the stall owner said this, Tong Yi and the others understood that there were treasure mountains in the secret realm, but they all needed to be developed, and most of them had not yet grown up, so they were still in a state of tight resources.
