This Five Tigers and Herds of Sheep technique made him feel a little scared. He didn't know if he had practiced it wrong. He didn't make much progress, but he had a lot of problems.
After practicing all night, there seemed to be no progress at all, and I almost froze myself to death.
After drinking several bowls of hot soup, I finally took a breath.
Lu Tiao kept sneezing: "It was too cold last night. I seem to be sick."
It was only the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the weather was getting colder and colder. It would be strange to spend the night in the yard without anything warm, and holding a sack to keep from freezing.
It can only be said that Escort Wu did not regard his subordinates as human beings and did not care about the lives of others. After eating and drinking, he put on airs and sat on the shaft of the carriage with his knife in his arms, waiting for Zhou Paigu to drive the carriage.
Zhou Paigu became more and more fed up with him, and even had the idea of quitting after this trip.
I didn't think about this problem in the past because I had no choice. Now that I have the capital, I can do something else without being so foolish.
But we have to finish this trip before we talk about it.
Lu Tiao was really sick. He actually fell off the cart and didn't know he got up.
Having a high fever and talking nonsense.
Zhou Paigu didn't want to drive the cart anymore, so he went to take care of Lu Tiao, and carried him back to the cart with Da Zhuang, so escort Wu had to drive the cart himself.
Zhou Paigu was helpless in Lu Tiao's situation. He was just a young man and had no choice but to rush.
Da Zhuang said while driving the car: "Give him more water and don't make him stupid. He is not smart at all. If he is stupid, he will not be able to get a wife."
Zhou Paigu looked around. Where can I feed him water?
After thinking about it, he simply pressed Lu Liao's hot forehead with his hand and tried the Five Tigers and Herds of Sheep Technique. Anyway, this is a water-based technique.
I don't know if this technique worked, but Lu Tiao's burning body gradually returned to normal.
Lu Tiao fell into a drowsy sleep and did not wake up until he arrived at the next old shop. Zhou Paigu had no choice but to carry him into the bunk to sleep. After eating something, he went to watch the night alone.
In the middle of the night, Da Zhuang came to change shifts with him: "It's strangely cold. Let's go in and sleep for a while. It's warmer than outside anyway."
After doing this exercise for a long time, it got even colder, so Zhou Paigu also stopped and went to Tongbu to take a nap.
The next day, Lu Tiao recovered, but Zhou Paigu felt that he was a little sick and didn't get enough sleep.
Escort Wu gave him the place to drive the car again. He gritted his teeth and went to drive the car again.
I was very tired after traveling all the way to the county town.
After passing through some legendary dangerous areas, I couldn't control it, no matter how hard I tried, nothing happened.
The county town is relatively prosperous, with high walls and deep walls, and is called Qingyuan County.
There are still many feather arrows stuck in the cracks of the city wall. It is unknown how long ago the war left traces.
The people here are well-dressed and well-dressed. Coming from Qingshi County is like entering paradise, a paradise for rich people.
People without money are just passers-by wherever they go.
The Wuhu Escort Agency has a branch here, located in an alley not far from the entrance to Nancheng.
The gate is not big, and it only does transportation business from the county town to Qingshi County. It can only be regarded as a small escort agency.
Naturally, when the escort team comes over, they can't go back empty-handed. They will only go back after collecting enough goods. Sometimes they can leave right away, and sometimes they have to wait for a few days.
Because we were pulling two large carts on this trip, we only had some scattered goods, not much, so we had to wait a while.
"Go shopping."
Lu Tiao happily pulled him out.
Because he has been here a few times, he especially likes such a lively place. Even if he has no money, he likes to run around and look everywhere. He even wants to rely on his good looks to hook up with a girl from the city, so he doesn't have to save money to marry a wife.
It is said that girls in the city will also give money...
Zhou Paigu likes to be quiet. When he has nothing to do, he would rather sit in a daze than walk around. If Lu Tiao hadn't pulled him, he would rarely go out on his own initiative.
I have been going back and forth on this road for more than three years, and I have visited the city many times, but it has lost its novelty. I was always penniless, always dirty, and didn't want to offend anyone.
This time Lu Tiao pulled him out again. In fact, he also wanted to go out for a walk. Didn't he have money this time?
I just don’t want to go out with Lu Tiao, I suddenly have money, I can’t explain it.
Lu Tiao is a relatively optimistic person. He finds everything interesting when he sees it. Even if he doesn't have money, he will go up and ask for a price.
Zhou Paigu's personality is just the opposite. He doesn't want to cause trouble if he doesn't plan to buy, and he never asks about the price.
There was a temple fair not far away today, and Lu Tiao went to join in the fun more and more enthusiastically. He stood under the stage and refused to leave, as if he understood.
"It's free. If you don't see it, you won't see it."
You can have fun even if you have no money.
"You watch, I'll go walk around."
There are indeed places to visit nearby. There is a market in the corner where all things related to cultivators are bought and sold.
Zhou Pork Ribs often comes here to shop because I have no money and never ask for prices.
There is an old man here who has set up a bookstall and specializes in buying various magical secret books at high prices and then reselling various magical secret books.
Now that Zhou Paigu feels that the Five Tigers and Herds of Sheep formula is not very reliable, and he has money, the most impatient thing is to come here and find a magical secret book that he likes, maybe it will work!
As soon as he squatted down in front of the bookstall, the old man glanced at him and said lazily: "Sell or buy?"
"Let's take a look first."
Zhou Paigu looked at the old books on the bookstall and reached out to pick up one to flip through.
"Can't move."
The old man stretched out his hand to stop him, "The so-called magical secrets are actually simple to put it bluntly. People with good eyesight can learn it at a glance. Some people who have a photographic memory can even memorize it after reading it once. How can I make a living as an old man? ?
If you don't buy it, you can't move it casually. "
Zhou Paigu was stunned for a moment. Although he did not dare to say that he could memorize everything after reading it once, he could almost remember everything. Therefore, it was indeed a bit unethical to take advantage of others.
"You have to choose a book that you think is good before you spend money on it, right?"
The old man stared at him and asked, "What kind of spiritual root do you have?"
Zhou Paigu shook his head: "I don't know."
The old man asked again: "What skills have you practiced?"
"Five tigers and flocks of sheep, water tiger."
"How's the effect?"
"The progress is not fast, and the more you practice, the colder you get."
"Hands out."
He took Zhou Paigu's pulse, closed his eyes and shook his head, "It's not bad, just keep practicing the water system skills. You won't die."
Just can't die? !
The results are not guaranteed.
"Can you become an immortal?"
"roll."
The old man was almost furious, "What rubbish wants to become an immortal? Do you think becoming an immortal is just a joke?"
Zhou Paigu is so speechless, what is the point of cultivating if you can’t become an immortal?
Seeing that he was in a daze, the old man said kindly: "Your Five Tigers and Herds of Sheep Jue is indeed a bit rubbish. It's just a low-end product from Huangjie. Throwing it on the street may not be picked up by others. It's good if you can practice it to Xuanjie in a lifetime. .
My old man has not only earth-level cultivation techniques, but also heaven-level cultivation techniques. Which one do you want? "
Zhou Paigu hurriedly asked: "Which one is better?"
"Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, he must be good at the heaven level, and he can continue to practice to the heaven level.
Earth level exercises can only be practiced up to the earth level. At that time, you will have to change the exercises. It is definitely not as good as directly practicing the heaven level exercises. "
"I want the heavenly one..."
"Is this something you can do?
It depends on how much money you have. "
Zhou Paigu asked: "How much does it cost?"
The old man stretched out a finger and shook it.
"One tael of silver?"
"roll!"
The old man was so angry that he grabbed a stick and wanted to beat him, "I will disappear immediately in front of my old man."
Zhou Paigu refused to give up and asked: "How much is it?"
The old man said: "Huang Jie, I can give you a copy for free.
Xuan level, one hundred gold.
Those from the ground level, a thousand pieces of gold.
Heaven-level... priceless. "
Zhou Paigu suddenly felt bad. He thought he was rich, but he was nothing.
No wonder the escort agency would give him the Five Tigers and Herds of Sheep Technique. It was a trashy thing in itself and worthless. It was just for him to fiddle around and gain strength so that he could work better.
He hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand: "Since the Heaven Rank is priceless, it doesn't cost money, so I'll take a copy."
"You...you are so shameless."
The old man wanted to use the stick again, "What I mean by priceless is that it depends on whether the person is predestined for the practice. It doesn't mean that there is no money, at least ten thousand gold or more."
Is it fate? It means that if you can make more money, you can make more money. Ten thousand gold is the starting price.
Whether it's a hundred gold or ten thousand gold, it's the same for Zhou Pork Ribs.
Can't afford it either.
Since I have to change my technique anyway, Heavenly Level is naturally the best, as it can be done in one step.
He took out a gold coin and shook it: "Even if you have a lot of skills, what's the use if you can't sell them? On the contrary, you won't make money.
I won’t buy it either. Is it okay to borrow it?
It's a good deal to borrow one gold coin once, the thing is still yours, you have nothing to lose, and you have earned a gold coin in vain. "
The old man looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Are you sure you can have a photographic memory?"
Photographic memory is no joke. There may be such people, but there are definitely not many.
Can you meet one casually?
Zhou Paigu shook his head hesitantly: "I'm not sure, but I really have no money, so I have to take a gamble."
