"I just realized it after hearing what Bai Zhizheng said. What you don't know is that as early as half a year ago, people in our store kept coming to buy elixirs and spiritual materials that replenish qi and blood, which led to a tight inventory. But Bai Zhizheng only came here a few months ago, do you think there is anything fishy about it?"
Fan Lao's eyes narrowed and he said in a rather serious tone.
Zhang Qin is naturally not stupid, and immediately heard what he meant, and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Mr. Fan, are you saying that Mr. Bai has been plotted by someone a long time ago? Then let's not..."
But before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Mr. Fan with a wave of his hand, and he said in a deep voice:
"Xuanji Pavilion has a strict order that prohibits intervening in the affairs of various sects. We only do business and don't care about anything else. This is why I didn't remind Bai Zhizheng in person. In fact, I believe that master and disciple Bai Zhizheng should have noticed it a long time ago, so now you know How important is the snake fruit in Qingyun's hand to him, right?"
Zhang Qin nodded clearly, but she still didn't understand why Mr. Fan said Qingyun's last spiritual stone was wonderful.
It seemed that he understood the doubt in Zhang Qin's eyes, but Mr. Fan just laughed and did not explain in detail. He took the alchemy furnace she handed back and said softly:
"This boy is by no means a thing in the pool. At least Bai Zhizheng is not as good as him."
And while the old man and the young man were choosing the alchemy furnace, Bai Zhizheng and his newly acquainted little brother were also talking nonsense.
The topic was nothing more than Qingyun's background, cultivation, skills, etc., and Bai Zhizheng also felt that the boy in front of him looked quite pleasing to the eye, so he started chatting more and more off-topic.
When the two of them talked about Ling Juedian, the old rival of Haiyou Sword Sect, Bai Zhizheng couldn't help but put down the teacup that was handed to his mouth and sighed:
"Hey, I think that although Ling Jue Palace has been declining recently, it is still a great sect that has been passed down for thousands of years. Now, in order to please our Haiyou Sword Sect, he has actively offered so many places to enter the small world, but he doesn't know that he is lying on the bed. How can we allow others to sleep soundly for such a simple and easy-to-understand reason?"
Qingyun felt that he was young and had nothing to do, and it was not easy to give advice on other people's practices, so he smiled and said:
"Brother Bai, I didn't expect you to worry about other sects?"
"Haha, I'm just sorry that Ling Jue Palace wasted this opportunity. After all, it contains the world's most precious unicorn tooth! But they actually opened it to all the low-level monks in Xuancheng and Kyushu. This is not just because they are full. Of!"
Hearing the word Qilin Ya, Qingyun's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and his pupils suddenly shrank. He tried hard to control his voice to remain as calm as possible, and said in a deep voice:
"Brother Bai, what's going on in that little secret realm? And that Qilin Tooth, I heard, hasn't it been missing for decades? Why does it appear there now?"
Bai Zhizheng didn't pay too much attention to the change in Qingyun's expression. After all, Qilin Ya's name was so famous that anyone would be attracted to it, so he undoubtedly said:
"The so-called small secret realm can also be called the fragments of the small world. It is a small world similar to the human world we live in now that was created by the powerful power of the past that could break through the void and refine the power of space and time. It contains He has collected numerous elixirs and treasures from ancient times, ancient times, and even ancient times.”
"Someone can actually open up the world!"
Qingyun's mouth is so big that it seems like it can hold an egg.
"That's because our monks today have long since cut off their ascension tradition. How can we compare with those powerful men in ancient times!"
Bai Zhizheng shook his head and laughed, and continued to introduce.
"It's just that this kind of small world lacks the Taoist rules of the original world. Once the powerful body dies or is left unattended for a long time, it will easily collapse and merge into the void. And the small world after becoming fragments cannot carry the energy of high-level monks. The spiritual power fluctuates, so only low-level monks can search for creation. I heard people say that the Milky Way in the sky is composed of countless small worlds."
What Bai Zhizheng said was something that Yao Mengxun had never mentioned to him, so Qingyun listened with extra enthusiasm and seriousness.
"As for the fragments of the small world discovered by Ling Jue Palace, the next time that people can enter will be more than a year later. Unless the cultivation level reaches the ninth level of Guiling, it is impossible for the monks to break the void. , and even comprehend the complete power of space and forcefully send people in."
Qingyun nodded, and then said with some doubts:
"In this case, Ling Juedian should have sneaked into it to find the treasure, and he should have swallowed the most precious unicorn tooth! Why is it open to others?"
Bai Zhizheng spread his hands after hearing this, as if he didn't understand why, and said in a rather strange tone:
"I heard that there seemed to be a traitor or something. Anyway, the news about Qilin Ya spread all of a sudden, and Ling Juedian confirmed the rumors with a tacit attitude. In the end, they were forced by the Immortal Sword Sect and the Due to pressure from all parties, this little secret place has to be opened to the outside world.”
"I see."
Qingyun nodded in understanding, and Bai Zhizheng immediately smiled and said:
"Of course, Ling Juedian is the original discoverer, and after all, they are just a sect protected by the Immortal Sword Sect. Even if there are really Qilin teeth in it, no one dares to steal it blatantly due to emotion and reason, so in the Immortal Sword Sect's After weighing it, there is a quota."
"Sure enough, the law of the jungle in the world of cultivation is not only reflected in individuals, but also in sects. It's pitiful that Ling Juedian doesn't have the right to handle the treasures he discovered. It's really sad."
Qingyun couldn't help but sigh in his heart, only to hear Bai Zhizheng say again:
"As a landowner, Ling Jue Palace will naturally have more people. However, in order to please our Haiyou Sword Sect, Ling Jue Palace gave us most of their quotas for free, and the Immortal Sword Sect seems to have other plans. No one was sent to participate in order to maintain order in and out."
"What about us? Can casual cultivators go?"
Qingyun blurted out, his expression full of excitement and yearning, but Bai Zhizheng chuckled and said:
"Haha, if you are a casual cultivator, you can only follow the rules and pay the ticket honestly! With your cultivation level, the minimum is a thousand low-grade spiritual stones or ten medium-grade spiritual stones. Of course. Yes, individual tickets are still more expensive than sect’s group tickets.”
When he heard about the thousand low-grade spiritual stones, Qingyun was so frightened that he jumped up to three feet high.
Darling, if you sell yourself by the pound, you can't sell a thousand low-grade spiritual stones, right? So many spiritual stones are enough to build a small mound!
Seeing the embarrassed expression on the young man's face due to the lack of money, Bai Zhizheng's lips evoked a smile. Through this conversation, especially after Qingyun only planned to accept a hundred lower-grade spiritual stones from him, Bai Zhizheng He already had an idea in his mind.
But just as he was about to speak, he heard a gentle knock on the door outside the private room.
Looking at the "Alchemy Furnace" held in Old Fan's hand, Qingyun looked dumbfounded.
The shape of this furnace is quite satisfactory. The furnace body with three legs and two ears is carved with a simple talisman formation. However, the head is a bit unsatisfactory.
It is only about the size of a wooden bucket filled with water, and it looks even more "exquisite" when held in the already short hands of Mr. Fan. It is very different from the water tank-like standard alchemy furnace that Qingyun saw downstairs before.
However, when Bai Zhizheng saw the alchemy furnace, his eyes lit up and he said in surprise:
"Mr. Fan, is this the Miaoyin stove of Senior Feng?"
Deacon Fan smiled and nodded when he heard this and said:
"Master Bai has a good eye. I once served as a guide at Xuanzang's request and led Senior Feng to visit Bailian City for a few days. Later, Senior Feng gave me a Miaoyin stove before leaving. Although this Miaoyin stove is from the sect of Senior Feng It’s a medium-to-low-level item, but as the local butler of Xuanzang, I couldn’t keep it privately, so I kept it in the store.”
Bai Zhizheng obviously knew the origin of this Miaoyin stove, but his face twitched secretly, and he teased with some embarrassment:
"Mr. Fan, your blackmail would have made me bleed a long time ago! The name of Miaoyin Furnace is very familiar to me. At that time, our sect master couldn't even ask Senior Feng to give him a star. I never thought that it was you, old man, who was responsible for the good luck!"
Deacon Fan was an experienced man and he naturally heard the implication of Bai Zhizheng's words. However, he did not answer the words. Instead, he explained to Qingyun, who didn't understand him well:
"Little friend Qingyun, although the Miaoyin furnace is small, for you who are not very advanced and are new to alchemy, this furnace is an excellent tool for refining alchemy!"
Hearing what he said, Qingyun couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and looked at Mr. Fan with questioning eyes:
"The name of this furnace is Wonderful Sound, which is why it is named because the sound produced by the collision of spiritual materials and spiritual energy in the furnace is much crisper and more pleasant than ordinary alchemy furnaces when refining alchemy. However, due to the limitations of the grade of the alchemy furnace, it can only be used for refining Make some mysterious-level and low-level human-level elixirs."
Seeing that Qingyun's face was calm and showed no sign of disappointment, Mr. Fan smiled again and said:
"But because the person who forged it was senior weapon refiner Feng Yuqian, the quality must be much better than ordinary low-level pill furnaces. The rate of making pills is also much higher, and it can save a lot of spiritual power. For For low-level alchemy masters, it can be said to be a magical tool for practicing!"
After Mr. Fan finished explaining, Qingyun finally understood the value of the Miaoyin Stove and had more expectations for it. However, his spiritual materials are limited now, and it will take some time to accumulate alchemy for a long time.
However, this was still as useful to him as the rain came after a long drought, so looking at the smiling Mr. Fan, Qingyun's heart was filled with warmth and gratitude, but he still refused:
"In this way, I can't accept Mr. Fan. I just gave Brother Bai some ordinary snake fruits. If he exchanged it for something so valuable, Qingyun would have an uneasy conscience."
Fan Lao ignored his rejection and turned his gaze to Bai Zhizheng, who seemed to be looking pained.
But Master Bai could only pretend to be fat at this time, because the Five Snake Fruit is indeed very important to him.
Moreover, the things that Mr. Fan picked might be a little more expensive, but they were very suitable for Qingyun and indirectly returned a big favor for him. He no longer hesitated and said boldly:
"Qingyun! Just take it if you are told to take it. Is there any reason to take back the things that Brother Bai gave away? If you refine some elixir suitable for me in the future, just sell me some at a low price, haha!"
After Bai Zhizheng said that, he snatched the Miaoyin stove from Mr. Fan's hand, then stuffed it directly into Qingyun's arms, and patted his shoulder with his thick hand to indicate that he would accept it.
"In this way, Qingyun will stop being pretentious. Thank you to Brother Bai, Mr. Fan, and Sister Qin! If he has the ability to Qingyun, he will definitely repay you for today's kindness."
After saying this, Qingyun looked at the three of them with sincere eyes and bowed with his fists.
