After having enough wine and food, Qian Yunsheng walked out of the restaurant.
This meal ate up three of his spirit stones. You must know that one Bigu Pill is only one spirit stone, and it can take care of him for a whole day.
And if no Bigu Pills are used, but simple food such as spiritual rice and spiritual noodles, then one spiritual stone can cover the needs of a monk for several days.
Therefore, since Bigu Pill is more expensive than Lingmi Lingmei Noodles, most Qi practitioners will still choose to take Lingmi Lingmi Noodles, etc. to meet their daily needs unless they are in a hurry or in retreat.
As for Qian Yunsheng, a pot of spiritual wine and a few dishes, if you want to do this all the time, I'm afraid there is no ancestor in the family to take charge, then it will definitely not work.
He touched the storage bag and found that in addition to the dozen or so Lingling items purchased today, plus the spiritual stones he paid for the meal, he still had more than two hundred spiritual stones left.
In addition, considering that there is still a large amount of stone corpse powder that has not been purchased, Qian Yunsheng is a little worried, and his life is still tight.
Being in Jixia City is different from Linhai City. Because Linhai City planned to live there permanently, he chose a quiet place and set up a spirit gathering array.
And in Jixia City, I don't know how many days I can stay there, or I might have to hit the road again.
Therefore, Qian Yunsheng decided to rent a place with a ready-made spirit gathering array, although it was more expensive. After all, it takes a long time to install or dismantle a spirit gathering array.
In addition, these days I still need healing medicine and a quiet room, which means I also need an isolation formation.
If you do all this by yourself, you won't be able to finish it within a week or two.
Therefore, after much deliberation, although the cost of the spiritual stone was slightly higher, Qian Yunsheng decided to rent a ready-made place to ensure that he could start healing immediately.
The rooms that Linhai City provides complete sets of houses for immortal masters are all gathered on the mountainside. That is where Linhai City's spiritual veins are located, so the most important places in Linhai City are gathered there, such as the City Lord's Mansion and Tinghai Tower.
Jixia City is different. Because the place is large enough, these areas are more maturely planned and have more choices.
For example, there are three places for the immortal master to live. One is near a hot spring. The hot spring flows all year round and is considered a wonder in the city.
The gushing spring water is still carrying heat and flows into a small river in the city. The mist evaporates on the small river. When the weather is good, you can often see rainbows.
The other place is on the mountain. Not only is the vegetation lush, but you can usually stand in the courtyard and overlook the entire Jixia City. Therefore, the houses there have the largest area and the best scenery.
There is another place, which is close to the ghost market. Although the place is smaller and noisier, it has convenient transportation. There are also many Qi practitioners who are willing to choose to live here in order to save time.
Qian Yunsheng thought for a while, and originally he liked the location of the hot spring, because the hot spring emits a smell of sulfur all year round, which can provide him with an extra layer of cover when refining elixirs and ghosts.
But just now he was sitting upstairs looking at the direction where Mu Xueqing disappeared was towards the hot spring, which meant that Mu Xueqing was very likely to live there. Qian Yunsheng weighed it and decided not to take the risk and live there himself. I haven't decided whether to meet her yet, just in case I encounter an awkward situation with my disciple.
As for Qian Yunsheng on the mountain, he gave up without even thinking about it. After all, he didn't come here to enjoy it. If he lived here often, it would be a good place to go. But now that he is wandering in the wind and rain, everything is still based on practicality.
After running through these thoughts in his mind, Qian Yunsheng decided that it was in his best interests to rent a place near the ghost market.
...
Mu Xueqing's mind was very confused. Although Uncle Jingci told her a lot, she felt even more confused.
So she decided to go out to relax and think about things.
Previously, the uncle hoped to kill the demon at once, but unexpectedly he missed the demon's clone.
I reviewed it with my uncle afterwards and found out that the fisherman I killed for the first time was probably the demon's clone.
Because he saw the fisherman being killed with his own eyes, it is possible that the demon's power is inhabiting the corpse he killed.
Uncle Master also analyzed that since the demon can create one clone, it is not surprising that it can create several more clones.
"Although we killed his main body this time, it's obvious that he still has a clone left outside, which is why we didn't do our full work in the end," the master's uncle concluded.
The question now is how to lure out all the demons and catch them all in one go.
You must know that the demon can leave a clone to hide. If this is the case, wouldn't it mean that you will never be able to defeat the demon?
Thinking of this, Mu Xueqing was a little upset, so she put on a cloak and went out for a walk.
"Uncle Master is right. The key is to figure out the specific abilities of the demon first." After turning around for a while to calm down her heated brain, Mu Xueqing thought silently.
Only in this way can we know ourselves and our enemies, and then decide how to design the next step to lure the monster into its shell.
Mu Xueqing thought carefully about the details of the fight, and she found that the demon's ability had obviously declined between the first and second fights.
Mu Xueqing seemed to have grasped something. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to think about it seriously.
Everything from the past emerges like a spring,
"what is it?"
Mu Xueqing regarded herself as a bystander at this time, watching everything she experienced.
Suddenly, she found the crux of the problem.
"It's power!"
Mu Xueqing thought about the fight before and after carefully. From the very beginning, the demon killed the two stewards Guihe and even blew up his own treasure building.
But later on, the demon's power must have been greatly reduced, so his knife was only deformed by him.
Mu Xueqing thought along this line of thought:
When I first met the demon, it was obvious that the demon's ability was weaker than when I fought with him later.
Then the fishermen you kill are weaker,
This shows that once the demon is cloned, its strength will be taken away by the clone.
Only this can explain why the bodies of the fisherman and the monster are weaker than the monster seen at the beginning.
Therefore, now that the demon's body has been destroyed, it means that the strength of the clone left outside should not be too strong.
Thinking of the connections between all the strange events in Linhai City, Mu Xueqing froze her steps and vaguely grasped the direction.
If it is assumed that the demon's body has been destroyed by himself, then the clone left behind will definitely not be as powerful as the demon's body.
Judging from the behavior of the demons in Linhai City, at first the demons attacked mortals, and later they were Qi Refiners.
In addition, during the battle with itself, the demon also showed that it can absorb any living creature to enhance itself.
This shows that if this monster wants to improve its abilities quickly, it must constantly devour living creatures.
Mu Xueqing felt that the more she thought about it, the more she understood. She turned around and started walking back in a hurry.
She continued to think as she walked,
Judging from the situation during his fight with the demon, if the demon only devoured ordinary beasts, his strength would recover very slowly. It should be that he would attack ordinary beasts or ordinary people when he was particularly weak or had no choice.
Once he becomes stronger, his needs will also increase. It will be difficult to satisfy him by swallowing ordinary objects, so he will devour monsters or spiritual masters. Only in this way will he grow faster.
Mu Xueqing felt that she had caught something vaguely. She thought excitedly that Jixia City was different from Linhai City. Although there were monsters around here, due to the mature development of Jixia City, there were obviously very few such monsters.
And he also opened the Yin River water again and took it with him. Judging from the fact that the demon valued the Yin River water so much, he should not leave the area easily.
In this way, the most likely possibility is that the demon will secretly increase its strength near Jixia City.
Mu Xueqing remembered that Linhai City was like this before. In the beginning, things happened outside the city. Later, when the demon's power became stronger, the cases gradually appeared in Linhai City.
In this way, I only need to investigate first to see if anything strange has happened nearby recently, whether it happened in the city or outside the city, and then I can know the current strength of this monster.
As for what happened nearby recently, it should be easy to handle. I can handle this matter by contacting Jixia City,
Mu Xueqing felt that she had almost figured out the ins and outs of the matter. She clenched her fist excitedly and was shocked to realize that her left arm was gone.
She calmed down and warned secretly, "Mu Xueqing, you have lost an arm and your strength is not as good as before."
"And the demon's strength is still growing every day."
"You have to work hard, the master is still waiting for your rescue."
I cheered myself up again,
After combing through all her thoughts, Mu Xueqing felt that her idea was right.
She ran excitedly. She wanted to go back and discuss it again with her uncle.
