"The main body of this artificial cave is made of spiritual corundum. The thickness at its smallest point can reach half a meter. The material itself can withstand a full blow from the monks in the early stages of foundation building."
"After the formation is reinforced, even monks in the middle stage of foundation building will not be able to break it for a while. The security is still very reliable."
"As for the garden, a mist-hidden psychedelic array has been set up. After the array is activated, the entire cave will be shrouded in thick fog and will not be peeked by the outside world."
"Of course, large-scale formations consume a lot of money. Even with the blessing of the Spirit Gathering Array, a lot of spirit stones are needed every year. You should consider whether you should turn it on on a daily basis."
Xi Hanwen walked beside Luo Ziren and introduced the general situation of the cave in a casual tone.
Judging from her skilled tone, she must have brought many guests to see the house.
No wonder I was so impatient before.
After listening to Xi Hanwan's introduction, Luo Ziren took a moment to look at the environment of the garden and felt that he was quite satisfied, so he winked at Lan Qingquan.
'That's it! '
Lan Qingquan understood, nodded, and then began his performance.
"I can only say that this cave is not bad. Isn't the price of 80,000 spirit stone coins too expensive?"
"You still have to pay 500 spirit stone coins in luxury cave tax every year!"
Lan Qingquan showed a look of disgust.
When Xi Hanwan heard this, he shrugged:
"If you are not satisfied with the price, don't talk to me. I am not responsible for this part."
Lan Qingquan frowned:
"It's really troublesome. Then ask an elder who can take charge to interview this young master!"
Xi Hanwen resisted the urge to slap Lan Qingquan to death and called her mother, a middle-aged lady who had perfected her Qi refining skills, over.
Next, Lan Qingquan was responsible for dealing with the middle-aged lady.
Xi Hanwan followed Luo Ziren like a little tail.
"This classmate, I still don't know what your name is?"
Xi Hanwen opened her eyes wide, stared at Luo Ziren's face, and asked generously.
"Why do you need to know?"
Luo Ziren asked back.
"Well, don't you think it's unfair?"
"You know my name, but I don't know you?"
Xi Hanwan looked serious.
That's your fault for talking to yourself.
Luo Ziren complained in his heart.
He was still a little wary of Xi Huanwan.
The opponent is the trump card deliberately hidden by Danyang High School, a top talent who has the ability to compete for first place in the college entrance examination.
The most frightening thing is that Xi Hanwen looks like a smart and scheming girl at first glance, not as innocent as fellow student Li Zhiwei.
"My name is Lan Qingquan."
Luo Ziren glanced at the fat man who was haggling hard not far away, and casually asked his name.
"Lan Qingquan? Okay, I remember it!"
Xi Hanwan stretched out her jade hand towards Luo Ziren, with the corner of her mouth slightly raised:
"Let me formally meet you. My name is Xi Hanhan. Nice to meet you, classmate Lan."
Luo Ziren glanced at Xi Hanwan's hand, thought about it, and finally shook it:
"me too."
At the moment of shaking hands, Luo Ziren unceremoniously stretched out a ray of consciousness to find out the details of Xi Huanwan.
And what surprised him was.
Xi Hanwan did the same!
After noticing that a divine consciousness that was about the early stage of foundation building swept through his body, the trace of guilt in Luo Ziren's heart disappeared!
"Xi Hanwan not only has a heaven-grade ice spirit root, but she is also a legendary spiritual consciousness mutation genius?!"
"She who has perfected her cultivation by refining Qi actually possesses the foundation-building consciousness?"
Luo Ziren was stunned for a moment, feeling a little complicated.
Isn't this kind of talent too unique?
Hey, wait!
Not quite right!
Luo Ziren suddenly frowned.
He noticed a familiar feeling from Xi Hanwan's consciousness.
It’s like—Xi Hanwan also practiced the [Shengshen] method in the ecstasy? !
In this way, Xi Hanwen is probably not a spiritual mutant!
She just practiced [Ecstasy] just like herself.
Condensed his own spiritual consciousness?
if it is like this.
Where did the classics on [Ecstasy] that Xi Hanhan practiced come from?
Is there also a trap deliberately laid by Master Zheng Kui in the library of Danyang High School?
What about Lingzhou No. 1 Middle School? Will it have a similar arrangement? !
Think of this.
Luo Ziren was inexplicably panicked.
That Zheng Kui master, is he planning to wipe out all the god-refining geniuses in Lingzhou?
Who gave him such courage?
Or.
Because the Sky Demon Comet is about to arrive and the battle between the realms is about to begin, the Dao Alliance has no time to take into account the actions of local powerful people like Zheng Kui?
This is not good news!
Luo Ziren glanced at Xi Hanwan and wanted to remind her a little, but he didn't know how to say it.
Unsurprisingly, Xi Huanwen probably didn't know that he possessed the foundation-building perfection consciousness.
She is probably still complacent!
You have just gathered your spiritual consciousness and dare to use it like this. You really don't know the dangers of society!
"Classmate Lan, although I don't really mind shaking hands with you, is it inappropriate for it to last for so long? My mother is still watching over there!"
The corners of Xi Hanwan's lips were slightly raised, and she said in a playful tone.
"Sorry, I got distracted."
Luo Ziren let go of his hand and looked at Lan Qingquan, who was trying to bargain.
At present, it seems that Lan Qingquan has the upper hand, because Xi Hanhan's mother looks obviously guilty.
Shortly after.
Lan Qingquan returned victoriously, while Xi Huanwan was called away by her somewhat frustrated mother.
"How to say?"
Luo Ziren did not eavesdrop on the exchange between the two, and he only asked about the result now.
He didn't have high hopes for the outcome of the bargaining.
For a cave that costs 80,000 spirit stone coins, Lan Qingquan is considered capable if he can cut it down to 75,000.
"The price has been reduced to 55,000 spirit stone coins. Now it's up to you whether you want it or not!"
"What? 55,000?"
Lan Qingquan's answer shocked Luo Ziren.
This is too different from what he expected!
Lan Qingquan is really a talent!
"Yeah, actually I think it's still a bit exaggerated."
"Considering that you were interested in this cave, you didn't continue to cut down."
Lan Qingquan's tone was relaxed.
"This price is okay, thank you for your hard work."
Luo Ziren made a little guess.
55,000 spirit stone coins are enough for most of the soul crystals.
Rounding it all off, this cave seems like a free gift!
Seeing Luo Ziren's attitude, Lan Qingquan laughed:
"Don't you want to hear how I negotiated the price?"
"I think so, but are you willing to say it?"
"This time is different. I must tell you so that you will not regret it."
Lan Qingquan raised his head slightly, looked at the sky above where many stars were faintly visible during the day, and continued:
"Do you still remember that I reminded you to pay attention to the Sky Demon Comet?"
Luo Ziren was stunned.
Is it possible to get the Sky Demon Comet by just cutting the price? !
However, I got this tip from Lan Qingquan.
Luo Ziren also started to think.
The arrival of the Sky Demon Comet means that the realm war is coming.
But even if there is a boundary war, there is a high probability that it will not affect the source star itself.
By then, even if the price of Dongfu fluctuates, it won’t be cut in half, right?
Luo Ziren looked at Lan Qingquan with some confusion.
"According to records in world history books, every time the Source Star captures a new small world, there will be abnormal gravitational fluctuations for a long time."
"This unusually short one lasts a few months, and the long one lasts twenty or thirty years."
"The specific changes are related to the size of the captured world."
"Once gravitational anomalies occur, the tidal patterns of sea water will change."
“Lingzhou is right by the sea.”
When Lan Qingquan said this, his face showed a hint of loneliness and aloofness like snow:
"You generally won't notice this little knowledge that has no impact on a monk's life, but will affect various prices on a large scale."
"But I can't help but remember."
"You are really a talent!"
Luo Ziren felt that he had underestimated Lan Qingquan. This guy's talent in business was definitely expert level.
Because it takes a long time for the source star to capture the celestial body, the tidal pattern of the seawater changes very slowly.
For the monks, this effect is not fatal.
But Lingzhou City on the coast is likely to be directly submerged by sea water.
At that time, the price of the cave that cannot be moved will return to zero.
This may also be the real reason why Xi Hanhan's family is eager to sell their vacant cave mansion.
Once the sea water begins to flood the shore, the price of the cave will collapse instantly, and you will not be able to escape even if you want to.
Lan Qingquan had an insight into this, so the bargaining was very successful.
Next, it depends on whether Luo Ziren wants to buy it.
Luo Ziren thought about it and decided to buy it.
His time is very urgent.
You need to practice your sword control skills quickly.
Let’s wait until three years to talk about the drastic changes in three years!
Next, is the transaction process.
Both parties shall act in accordance with the Dongfu property rights transfer rules formulated by the Daomeng League.
Luo Ziren first transferred 55,000 spirit stone coins to the Dao Alliance supervision account recognized by both parties.
The seller handed over the array that controlled the entire cave and asked Luo Ziren to change the password.
After Luo Ziren inspected the cave and confirmed that there were no problems, he agreed to transfer the custody account to the seller.
It took two or three hours to complete a set of procedures.
And Xi Hanwan had left early.
"Young man is really young and promising!"
"You are so young, you can spend tens of thousands of spiritual stones to buy a cave!"
"It's amazing!"
Xi's mother looked at Luo Ziren and said with a smile:
"I will be responsible for paying all the transfer taxes."
"I will make up for the missing spiritual stones in the formation as agreed later."
She didn't like the fat man Lan Qingquan who was bargaining for money, but she felt good about Luo Ziren, the handsome benefactor.
"Thanks."
Luo Ziren politely thanked him.
After Xi's mother left.
Luo Ziren transferred another 1,000 spirit stone coins to Lan Qingquan as a hard-earned fee.
In fact, just finding an intermediary to help you buy a cave requires so much intermediary fees.
They don't have Lan Qingquan's bargaining skills yet.
1,000 spirit stone coins are definitely worth the money.
"Ah, you don't need this, right?"
Lan Qingquan, who thought that today would be voluntary labor, was surprised and delighted by Luo Ziren's move.
"Take it, I may need your help in the future."
Luo Ziren did not treat Lan Qingquan politely.
"Then I'll accept it shamelessly. Thank you, Boss Luo, for taking care of me."
Lan Qingquan had a playful smile on his face, and he was probably already thinking about which club to spend the night at.
After sending away Lan Qingquan.
Luo Ziren couldn't help but feel a little ups and downs as he looked at the man-made cave and attached large garden in front of him.
If he is willing to be a layman, he can actually rest at this level.
However, the Taoist Scriptures say: The five colors make one blind, the five tones make one deaf, and the five tastes make one's mouth refresh.
Excessive pursuit of material pleasures is not what a Taoist should think about.
After all, he is not Lan Qingquan.
"This is just my training ground!"
Luo Ziren closed his eyes and stopped looking at those beautiful garden landscaping.
night.
Luo Ziren returned home and told his parents about white lies.
"I will be busier and busier in my studies and cultivation in the future, and I don't want to waste too much time on the road."
"I rented a house with a friend. I will live there until I take the college entrance examination!"
Luo Qi and his wife were not surprised by Luo Ziren's decision.
After all, Luo Ziren had already mentioned that he wanted to buy a house last time.
Now it's just "renting", which is natural and reasonable.
After the couple repeatedly confirmed that the "friend" Luo Ziren mentioned was not Li Zhiwei, they both agreed with his decision to move to a Taoist temple.
Originally, Luo Qi and his wife were still thinking about whether to help move?
As a result, Luo Ziren took out the storage bag he entrusted Lan Qingquan to buy, and both of them felt that it was easier.
Early the next morning.
Luo Ziren transferred 5,000 spirit stone coins to his parents, asking them to buy more cultivation resources such as Qi Replenishing Pills to recuperate their bodies, and then moved to the new cave.
The house number of the new home is No. 10 Qinghe Road, which is only 800 meters away from Lingzhou No. 2 Middle School.
On the day of the move, Luo Ziren didn't notify any friends or classmates, and he didn't need anyone's help. He just finished it by himself.
Luo Ziren did not replace any of the belongings and utensils in the cave.
Apart from buying some new personal necessities, nothing else was done.
After packing everything up.
Luo Ziren picked up the Dongfu Formation Control Formation Disk and first turned on the large Kirigakure psychedelic formation.
I saw a flash of inspiration from the formation disk, and the foundation stones of the formation buried in every corner of the garden activated with a buzzing sound, and the entire cave was shrouded in a faint white thick fog.
This is just the effect seen inside.
If you look in from the outside, without using the foundation-building consciousness, you will find that the cave is completely shrouded in white thick fog.
Even if you use your spiritual sense to explore and don't forcibly destroy the psychedelic formation, you can only see part of the outline.
This level of cover-up is enough for Luo Ziren.
After all, a true cultivator of foundation building will not be so idle that he can use his spiritual consciousness to observe the movements of his neighbors!
It would be too easy to cause conflicts.
After turning on the psychedelic formation, Luo Ziren truly felt that he had a space of his own in this world.
Immediately, Luo Ziren took off the spirit beast bag from his waist and released all 10 first-order top grade spirit beast larvae inside.
The five golden beetles are in good condition. After all, they are often released to eat spiritual iron.
As for the two earth-scaled beasts and the three fire-bathing pythons, they looked a little wilted.
The spirit beast bag is only used to temporarily place spirit beasts, and the internal space is very cramped.
If you keep a spirit beast inside all the time, you will not only suffer from lack of energy, malnutrition, depression, and even death.
"You each find a place to play. Just don't leave the ground too high. I want to try my magic!"
After Luo Ziren fed several spirit beasts with the animal food provided by the Li family, he gave them these instructions.
The spirit beasts quickly dispersed as if they had been granted amnesty.
Five scarabs found a big tree to hide in, two earth-scaled beasts dug into the soft ground of the garden and got into the ground, and several fire-bathing pythons made their homes in the rockery.
Although the current environment may not be very suitable for their growth, it is still better than inside the spirit beast bag.
The spirit beasts were full of complaints about Luo Ziren, an incompetent master, but they dared not speak out in anger!
"The next step is to officially practice sword control."
