The rental price of the cave in Kurongfang is not high.
Although the Small Sumeru Formation turned this fifty-mile-wide Kuji Island into a five-hundred-mile radius, there is still only one second-order spiritual vein and three first-order spiritual veins on the Kuji Island. The caves are built on top of the spiritual veins. Sikong's house will basically not be rented out to outsiders.
Therefore, the caves rented out in Kurongfang are only equipped with some formations to gather spiritual energy, so that the concentration of spiritual energy inside the cave is slightly higher than that of the outside world.
Gu Qing followed the taciturn young man to look at the caves rented out by several shops. Seeing that the concentrations of spiritual energy in these caves were quite similar, he planned to rent a second-class cave in an old store with a guaranteed reputation.
This old store is located in the middle area of Kurongfang. The facade is built like a hall. The stone wall above the green and black hall door is engraved with several golden ancient seals, whose specific meaning should be 'Zuiyunxuan'.
Behind Zuiyunxuan are the endless green mountains. The caves for rent are located in the green mountains. They are divided into three grades, namely the first-class caves, the second-class caves and the third-class caves.
Gu Qing chose the second-class cave.
The person who received Gu Qing and the taciturn young man in Zuiyunxuan was a female cultivator in a red dress who was at the sixth level of Qi Refining. The facial features of this female cultivator in a red dress were not very outstanding, but the extremely harmonious combination made her quite beautiful and gave people a sense of beauty. A comfortable, non-aggressive feeling.
With a well-placed smile on her face, she looked at Gu Qing and said, "Since this Taoist friend is interested in renting my second-class cave in Zuiyunxuan, then let's go with the slave family to the second-class cave area."
Said.
The female cultivator in red dress was already leading the way.
Gu Qing and the taciturn young man stepped forward to follow.
Soon, Gu Qing and the others, led by the female cultivator in red skirt, came to the second-class cave area of Zuiyunxuan surrounded by green mountains. The spiritual energy here became a little stronger again, and various formations were shrouded in them. There are many second-class caves in front.
The female cultivator in the red dress kept walking, leading Gu Qing and the two of them through the second-class cave area, and introduced to Gu Qing the situation of some second-class caves that had not yet been rented out. The taciturn young man followed Gu Qing forward, watching his nose and heart. He looked like he was used to it.
A little over half an hour passed.
Gu Qing stopped in front of Cave No. 33 in Zuiyunxuan, the second-class cave area. In front of him was a gray-white formation light curtain, with a sense of distortion and heaviness, like an inverted sea bowl. On top of this cave, he listened to the introduction of the female cultivator in red dress and nodded slightly:
"This cave is here. I want to enter one of the caves first."
The female cultivator in the red dress heard Gu Qing's words and immediately agreed.
She rummaged in her storage bag for a while, took out a formation token, and then fired a red light at the formation light curtain covering the cave in front. The formation light curtain with a twisted and heavy feeling suddenly cracked. After opening a door, she led Gu Qing and the others through the door.
As the three people entered, the door above the formation light curtain quickly closed. After a moment, the formation light curtain opened a door not far away, and Gu Qing and the female cultivator in red skirt walked out quickly.
Gu Qing nodded with satisfaction and said to the female cultivator in red skirt: "This cave is really good. I wonder how much it costs to rent it for one year? If it is suitable, I would consider renting this cave for more than five years."
The female cultivator in the red dress looked slightly happy.
Her smile deepened and she responded to Gu Qing: "If fellow Taoist can rent it for five years at a time, it will cost five medium-grade spiritual stones every year, including the cost of repairing the formation, and free spiritual meals every day."
'Five medium-grade spiritual stones in one year, and twenty-five medium-grade spiritual stones in five years. This price is not cheap, but the cave here is really good, and it also includes the cost of spiritual food and repairing the formation...
When Gu Qing heard this, his eyes flashed and he thought for a moment.
He was about to respond.
But at this moment.
Gu Qing noticed that the dark sphere that was transformed into the space of the hanging stone tablet in the Dantian Qi Sea trembled slightly. His heart was severely shaken, and he quickly lowered his eyes to cover up his shocked expression.
This was the first time in Gu Qing's memory that the pitch-black sphere transformed into the space of the stone stele trembled slightly.
And Gu Qing seemed to be guided by something, and he could clearly sense that the source of the tremor of the dark sphere that caused the space of the stone monument to transform was not far to his left!
Gu Qing calmly suppressed all the surging emotions in his heart. He turned his head and looked to the left. At the foot of the green mountain peak, there was another cave shrouded in a thick formation light curtain. He stretched out his hand and pointed: "I don't know where the cave is." Is it rented out? If not, can someone go in and have a look?"
The nun in the red dress blinked.
Her smile was a little stiff, as if she was kind-hearted, and she reminded Gu Qing, "Fellow Taoist, that is a first-class cave area, and the rental price will be much higher accordingly. If you, Taoist, rent it for five years, it will cost a lot of spiritual energy." I’m afraid the stone will cost several times more! The cave here is actually pretty good..."
Gu Qing listened to the words of the female cultivator in the red dress. He did not respond verbally, but just looked at the female cultivator in the red dress quietly for a while.
His eyes were somewhat cold.
The female cultivator in the red dress sighed secretly when she saw this.
She smiled reluctantly and said to Gu Qing: "That cave abode should not be rented out. Fellow Taoists can go in and have a look, but that cave abode is already a first-class cave abode area, and the first-class cave abode area is no longer a slave." The Nu family is responsible for renting out, and the Nu family will contact the person in charge of renting out the cave in that area, and ask fellow Taoist to wait a moment."
Gu Qing nodded lightly and said, "Thank you very much."
The female cultivator in red skirt bowed to Gu Qing.
She took out a communication talisman, and then used it to contact the monk in Zuiyunxuan who was responsible for renting out the first-class cave.
Not long after, an old man with white beard and hair, full of energy, tall and thin, quickly came to Gu Qing.
The old man chatted with the female cultivator in red skirt for a few words, then looked at Gu Qing, nodded and said, "Fellow Taoist, please follow me."
Gu Qing and the taciturn young man came to the area of the first-class cave.
The taciturn young man peeked left and right from time to time, which was slightly different from the usual behavior when he was walking through the second-class cave area just now.
The old man with white beard and hair quickly led Gu Qing and the taciturn young man to the cave at the foot of the green hill.
The old man said to Gu Qing: "The cave here that my fellow Taoist is interested in is the twelfth cave in the first-class cave area. The annual rent is twenty yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones. If the rent is paid in full for more than five years at a time, Then you can receive one less medium-grade spiritual stone every year, that is, ninety-five medium-grade spiritual stones. You will have free spiritual meals every day. The formations in the cave can be repaired by yourself. There is no need to ask the formation master to repair them. Fellow Taoists can go in first to check. Ichiban."
Said.
The old man took out a formation card and directed it towards the cave at the foot of the green hill. The even thicker and majestic formation light curtain shot out a gray aura, and then the ground around him trembled.
Buzz!
The thick and twisted gray formation light curtain opened a portal, and the old man led Gu Qing and the taciturn young man into the Zuiyunxuan, the twelfth cave in the first-class cave area.
The formation light curtain behind the three people and the cracked door closed, isolating this cave from the outside world. The light from the outside passed through the thick formation light curtain and fell within a thousand feet of this cave. Dark, but as a few of them were monks, even the taciturn young man with the lowest cultivation level could see clearly in the darkness.
This cave mansion covers an area of about a thousand feet.
The spiritual fields around the cave have been abandoned, and the spiritual soil is red.
Gu Qing saw a small animal garden. All kinds of machines in the animal garden for monsters to live in were covered with dust. At the edge of the spiritual field, there was a well about ten feet wide. The water in it was very turbid, and there were a bunch of red unknown things in the water. The famous worm keeps rolling.
According to the old man.
The last tenant here was a beast master, and the red worms in the well were hatched from the eggs of mortal flies that were slightly contaminated with spiritual energy and mutated. They had cleaned them several times, but each time they were cleaned, they were only a few day, the red worms will grow again.
Gu Qing frowned slightly.
This cave, compared to the No. 33 cave in the second-class cave area, can be said to be two extremes.
The second-class cave area that he was more satisfied with before, thirty
In Cave No. 3, the spiritual field is flat, with some low-level green spiritual plants planted on it. The well at the end of the spiritual field is clear and sweet. Although there is no animal garden and the area is not as large as this cave, there is no comparison. There is no harm, the appearance of that cave is far better than that of this cave.
'The source of the trembling black sphere that caused the space of the stone monument should be within the thousand-foot radius of this cave.
Gu Qing could sense that in the sea of Qi in his Dantian, the dark sphere transformed into the space of the stone tablet was shaking more and more violently. Coupled with the mysterious feeling, he was very sure.
Seeing Gu Qing's expression was different, the old man said quickly: "If fellow Taoist rents this cave, I, Zuiyunxuan, would like to ask a second-level beast control master to thoroughly clean the insect eggs in the well water."
Gu Qing nodded noncommittally.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief.
'It's not easy to rent out the cave here. Most monks will turn around and leave when they see the mess of this cave. It's obviously a good location and it's close to the core of the Spirit Gathering Formation. However, the cave here is actually already there. Empty for two months! It’s almost become my heartache! This time I agree to lower the price and rent out this cave!
'If this fellow Taoist really wants to rent this cave for five years, then I will set the minimum price at sixty-five yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones...
The old man felt cruel in his heart.
Gu Qing followed the old man and walked into the half-raised black stone door of the cave. He glanced at it a few times, then stretched out his consciousness and immediately understood the general structure of the cave.
There is a front hall for entertaining guests, a side hall for cooking spiritual meals, an alchemy room that can draw earth fire, a weapon refining room that can also draw earth fire, a talisman-making room engraved with meditation patterns...
And the most important practice quiet room.
Gu Qing's eyes showed a strange color, as if he was whispering to himself, or sighing to the old man: "There is so much spiritual energy in this quiet cultivation room!" ap.
The old man smiled proudly: "I, Zui Yunxuan, am..."
Gu Qing didn't care what the old man said.
He just kept nodding, seeming to agree.
Gu Qing actually felt a little restless in his heart.
At this moment, he has circled the thousand-foot radius of this cave, and his spiritual consciousness has almost passed through this cave inch by inch. He has even explored the underground, but he has never found the sea of Qi in his Dantian. In the middle, the dark sphere transformed into the space of the stone tablet is the source of the tremors.
