"If you want to enter Qingjiagufang City, you must first hand over a low-grade spiritual stone!"
After the vigorous young man uttered a sentence coldly, he folded his arms and began to look at Su Poman up and down, his mouth curled up. Zhuang Tian stood guard at the entrance of this market and came into contact with all kinds of people every day. There are three, six or nine levels. The highest level is naturally those disciples of the sect. Whenever he meets a disciple of the sect, he will go up to him very enthusiastically to inquire about their welfare and friendship. The second highest level is the monks who come from the family of cultivating immortals. This type of cultivators also It can generate a lot of consumption in the market. The last category, and the one he despises the most, are those casual cultivators who have "no backing and no inheritance", because the purchasing power of casual cultivators is the worst, and there are even a lot of them. Most of them are reluctant to part with the spirit stones they enter.
Therefore, every time Zhuangtian sees a shabby-dressed casual cultivator arriving, he will feel an inexplicable sense of superiority in his heart. As a disciple of Patriarch Qingjia, he is naturally much better than those miserable casual cultivators. , I can’t remember how many times, some casual cultivators came here excitedly. After hearing the conditions that they had to pay a spiritual stone to enter, 90% of them left in dejection, asking him to waste some time. As for The remaining 10% of fools who pretend to be fat will not buy anything after entering. They just go around and broaden their horizons and then leave when it gets dark.
You know, you have to stay in an inn when staying overnight in Qingjiafang City.
The inns here are not cheap, and you need at least one spiritual stone to stay for one night.
Su Poman noticed the contempt in Zhuang Tian's eyes, and was speechless. He didn't expect that a watchdog from a small city could be so arrogant.
He didn't speak, walked over, patted the storage bag, took out a thumb-sized diamond-shaped crystal, and threw it over with a wave of his hand.
call out!
The spirit stone drew an arc in the air.
Zhuang Tian was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously reached out to take it, opened his palm and took a closer look, wondering in his heart: "My dear, it turns out to be a high-purity low-grade spiritual stone? Isn't he a casual cultivator?"
This thought flashed through his mind, and Su Poman had already passed by him, with no intention of stopping to talk to them.
"Brother Fan, you really made a mistake this time. I didn't expect that the poor-looking boy before would actually use a high-purity spirit stone. I'm afraid only the disciples of the sect can have such a thing, right?" Zhuang Tian held the spirit stone in his hand. Shi breathed a sigh of relief, then wiped it with his sleeve, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
The young man named Gao Fan on the other side heard the words and immediately came up, carefully looked at the low-grade spirit stone in Zhuangtian's hand, and said in wonder: "If you are a casual cultivator, you will definitely not be able to help but use the spirit stone several times." Spiritual energy, but this piece is indeed very pure. The Taoist friend just now may belong to the ascetic cultivator in the sect and does not pay much attention to appearance. Otherwise, it is impossible for casual cultivators to take out such a pure spiritual stone as an entrance. Fee! Junior Brother Zhuang, if you keep this one when you turn it in, you will get a lot of benefits. You are really lucky today!"
"Hey, I'll treat you to a drink when the guard changes later!" Zhuang Tian smiled excitedly, put the spirit stone in his bag, and waved his hand.
"Songyang is drunk?"
Gao Fan raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
When Zhuang Tian heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly, "That's not okay. Songyang Zui is a spiritual wine, so it's better to be like Daughter Xianglaosi!"
"Okay! But if you encounter such a good thing again, you must treat me to a Songyang drunkenness, otherwise I will take the high-purity goods next time!" Gao Fan's face sank slightly and his tone was serious.
"It's easy to say! It's easy to say! Brother Fan, don't worry, next time something like this happens again, you must have a pot of Songyang to satisfy your craving!" Zhuang Tian smiled with a smile on his face, but there was an imperceptible cold light flashing deep in his eyes.
…
Su Poman didn't notice the conversation between the two, and went straight to the stall after entering the market.
In the past six months, the sect has given him 500 low-grade spiritual stones as monthly salary as monthly salary. He has not used much of it. Now he has accumulated more than 2,600 spiritual stones. According to his estimation, it should be enough to purchase That weird statue.
Most of the immortal cultivators on the street were in a hurry, and many of them wore bamboo hats and other accessories to cover their figures. The stalls on the street were simply placed with miscellaneous items, including elixirs, talismans, magical instruments, etc. He had seen many things in the sect's markets, so he wasn't too interested.
After Su Poman approached that stall, he pretended to wander around several other stalls. Sometimes he would pick up things and ask the stall owner for prices. After staying for a while, he finally came to the stall selling statues.
Different items were placed in different areas on this stall. The top area was filled with several strange-shaped stones. Su Poman saw the biggest green-skinned stone at the top with a price tag that read: Tianniuzhou Divine Source Secret Realm Ore. It contains a mysterious opportunity and costs fifty yuan of low-grade spiritual stones.
"Gamble on stones?"
After seeing the price tag, such a term came to Su Poman's mind inexplicably.
In the previous life, there were many people on Blue Star who were keen on stone gambling. They spent high prices to buy a batch of good-quality stones from some jade mines, betting that they could cut out priceless jade from them.
It's like buying a lottery ticket. It all depends on luck. A small number of people successfully cut glass jadeite, and then became rich overnight and reached the pinnacle of life. There are also some people who spent all their wealth to buy rough stones in a sudden move, and then went bankrupt.
The label on the Tianniuzhou raw ore in front of him made Su Po very interested. He pointed at the stones on the stall and asked, "Fellow Taoist, I dare to ask why these stones are so expensive. Are they precious refining materials?" ?”
The stall owner was a gray-haired old man in his sixties. When he saw customers coming to the door, a faint smile appeared on his face, his lips moved slightly, and an extremely old voice came from his mouth.
"The little old man's Taoist name is Cang Mozi. He is a wandering cultivator with no fixed abode. He has been wandering for decades. I got these stones from the secret realm of the divine source in Tianniu Continent. They are sealed There are items in a certain foreign battlefield, including various magic weapons, elixirs, magic weapons, exercises, and even elixirs. I remember three hundred years ago, a lucky guy opened a legendary weapon in the Shenyuan ore. After taking the 'Jin Yuan Dan', he directly became a great master in the golden elixir stage. Four hundred years ago, a monk who was about to live a long life prescribed a 'Zhuyan Changqing Dan', which directly extended his life span by a hundred years. Ten years, six hundred years ago, a casual cultivator in the Qi refining period developed a magic weapon called the 'Yin Yang Mirror', which he directly refined into his own magic weapon. From then on, he ruled everywhere..."
Cang Mozi seemed to be very good at sales, boasting the origins of these stones as rare and unique things in the world. However, Su Poman didn't listen at all to some of the things he boasted about later. After thinking about it carefully, he then asked: "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Cang Mozi. May I ask where the secret realm of the divine source is and why such strange stones are produced?"
