After a while, Zhang Liang drove the boat and finally left the damn coastal cliff cave.
At this moment, he really wanted to leave.
He didn't want to worry about making bait or collecting materials.
However, he had been manipulated, and he and Ye Qingling were tied up in a boat. They were both prosperous and devastated.
He made the oath of heaven. If he didn't do something, what would happen even if he ran back to the seaweed jungle?
Therefore, things must be done, but whether they can be done well or not is not something you can predict. If he really couldn't do it, he could only run away.
"Damn it, sooner or later, I will take charge of my own destiny and will never be controlled by others again."
Zhang Liang made some remarks, walked around the Immortal Sea several times, and met some fishermen and farmers. When he returned to Qingfeng Shipyard, he had turned into an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.
Stepping into Qingfengfang City again, it felt like a lifetime ago.
"First collect a few common items on the list. The rest should be mapped out slowly."
After a while.
Zhang Liang first bought a spirit beast bag at Lingxian Building, and then wandered around the city.
A spiritual insect stall.
Seeing Zhang Liang hesitate for a long time, the stall owner finally asked: "Fellow Taoist, you have looked back and forth several times, but what do you need? I see you have a spirit beast bag hanging on your waist, and I think you also want to join this Tao. This technique of mine It’s complete, there are as many as five kinds of spiritual insects, and the price is affordable, so why hesitate?”
Zhang Liang stood still and sighed slightly: "I have a good intention, but I am short of money. If fellow Taoist can make them cheaper, I will buy a few."
But the stall owner smiled casually: "Fellow Taoist, who didn't come here like this? It's because you are short of money, so you have to put all your efforts into it. Once you succeed, the spiritual stone will come naturally!"
"That's true."
"Then, here are ten first-level low-grade jasper cockroaches, and a thousand of ordinary categories that have not yet entered the level. In addition, five more first-level low-level swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs, and a thousand of ordinary categories that have not yet entered the level. What's the price~"
Finally, after a round of bargaining, Zhang Liang purchased these spirit insects for 35 spirit stones.
In fact, what Ye Qingling wanted was only the first-grade low-grade swallow-tailed horseshoe crab, but if he only bought the swallow-tailed horseshoe crab, it would be too deliberate.
After buying the spiritual insects, Zhang Liang left Qingfengfang City and sailed out to sea in a Dharma boat.
In fact, Ye Qingling wanted as many as 15 swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs, but buying so many at one time was unreasonable for fishermen and farmers, so Zhang Liang decided to buy them in three installments with three different roles.
What Zhang Liang didn't know was that just a moment after he purchased the swallow-tailed horseshoe crab, someone came out with the news.
Outside Shili Ling Lake, on Qingfeng Mountain, the original training place of Qingfeng Taoist, a disciple of the sect came in a hurry.
He stood respectfully outside the door and saluted into the house.
"Senior Brother Lei, someone bought five swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs."
"Five? What else did that man buy?"
"This person bought a spirit beast bag from Lingxian Tower, a blue-flowered sea anemone from a market stall, sold a first-grade low-grade spirit lobster, and exchanged it for a vitality pill. And then there's Purchased 10 jasper cockroaches, 5 swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs, and some common spiritual insects. Then we went to sea."
Lei Yun sat cross-legged on the futon in the house and opened his eyes slightly: "Blue flower sea anemone, this thing is indeed loved by spiritual insects. But if you want to refine the spiritual restoration pill, it seems inappropriate..."
After confirming, Lei Yun responded: "Let him go, but draw a portrait of this person and compare it with the fishermen and farmers of Jiudao. Then we will see if he will come to buy other related materials later. If he After purchasing another material I mentioned, I will send someone to follow."
"Yes, senior brother. However, senior brother, please forgive my words. If someone disguises himself and buys in batches, with such a large daily transaction volume in the market, I'm afraid they won't be able to detect it at all~"
"You don't need to worry about this, just pay attention as I said."
"Yes, senior brother."
…
One month later.
"Pfft~"
A big black fish was biting a killer squid on the bottom of the sea. Not long after, there were spirit lobsters hiding everywhere, smelling the smell and looking for them.
When the number of spirit lobsters exceeded five, the big black fish had to give up the remaining half of the killer squid.
After a while.
The big black fish transformed into a human form, emerged from the bottom of the sea, summoned the Dharma Boat, and jumped onto it.
"When did the outside of Qingfeng Island become so dangerous?"
On the boat, Zhang Liang looked uncertain. In the past, it was impossible for there to be so many spirit lobsters two hundred miles offshore. Not to mention that there were two first-order mid-grade spiritual lobsters among the few spiritual lobsters just now.
This month, he really felt that the spirit lobsters were still moving forward, swarming towards the shore of Qingfeng Island.
Zhang Liang, who originally didn't want to take too many risks, was forced to try to improve his body-refining strength due to his identity as a fish bait. Unfortunately, one month is really too hasty. Even though he ate more than 20 first-level middle-grade ferocious beasts and 11 demon pills, he still didn't gain much.
No, he had bought everything Ye Qingling told him, and he had to buy the last item on the list.
In fact, when Ye Qingling said that after purchasing this item, he must try to escape, he knew that the messy things he bought earlier were just incidental, and only that item was what Ye Qingling really needed.
And she had to try to escape by herself, which meant that Lei Yun actually knew about this item?
In other words, this item was originally placed by Lei Yun in Qingfeng Fairy Square to lure Ye Qingling into taking the bait.
Ye Qingling and Lei Yun were both waiting for the other to take the bait, and both released the bait. Now, it depends on Ye Qingling and Lei Yun's methods.
…
Qingfengxianfang.
Zhang Liang walked around in Fangshi, which was his habit every time he went to Fangshi.
Because every time he came, he would find that the place where the item was sold had changed.
This object is called the Bird's Tail Shrimp Bead, but it is actually a demonic elixir condensed from a ferocious beast called the Bird's Tail Mantis Shrimp.
The demon pill is of little use to ordinary fishermen and farmers, or even to most immortal cultivators. Only the sea monster can refine his body by refining and destroying the demon pill.
Zhang Liang didn't know what Ye Qingling wanted this demon pill for, but it was very rare, with only five places selling it in the entire market.
One of them is Lingxian Tower.
It makes sense that Lingxian Building is selling this, because it has all the specialties near Qingfeng Island.
Although the bird-tailed mantis shrimp is rare, Zhang Liang has seen someone catch it, so he is not surprised that Lingxian Tower has it.
In addition to Lingxian Tower, there are a total of four people selling this item.
Among them, some people specialize in selling evil spirit insects and also sell demon pills.
There are also people who sell all kinds of elixir materials, including various seaweeds, sea anemones, and even snail powder and shellfish, among which this demon elixir happens to be included.
There is another person who sells groceries, ranging from elixirs to weapons to exercises and talismans. He also sells some demon elixirs, but these demon elixirs are placed together with some very gorgeous-looking pearls. If Zhang Liang hadn't observed carefully, he wouldn't have been able to tell the difference.
The last person was a charm maker, and he had a few demon pills on his stall. But these demon pills are all used for crushing, inking, and making talismans.
Zhang Liang believed that the five bird tail shrimp beads he discovered were all being monitored.
This is why Ye Qingling finally gave him a talisman.
That piece of talisman paper is called the Phantom Talisman. According to Ye Qingling, this object is only a first-class high-grade talisman, but it has the ability to steal the sky and change the sun.
To put it bluntly, it means that it can transform into the form of something and temporarily replace it. But in the final analysis, this is just a cover-up method. If you observe a little more carefully, or if the transformation time is a little longer, you will be discovered.
Therefore, once Zhang Liang succeeds, there will not be much time left for him.
Whether it is the disguise technique or the secret water escape technique, they are actually for Zhang Liang to use at this time. Once you get it, whether you can run away or not depends entirely on gambling.
Zhang Liang knows that fishing is easy to unhook. Many times, the bait is eaten, but the hook is still there. So if he didn't run away and was captured in Fangshi, then the mission would be considered a failure. And Ye Qingling must have some countermeasures to deal with this failure.
However, if you run away and really get rid of everyone, then your bait will be too good at running away, and the mission will be failed, and it will not be effective in fishing.
This is the most dangerous place for Zhang Liang.
He wanted to be able to run away, but he couldn't really run away. Although it’s a mouthful, the truth is this. This is the self-awareness of being a bait.
Otherwise, how can we say this is gambling? What is being gambled on is life, but Zhang Liang doesn't like gambling on life.
In the end, Zhang Liang chose the stall selling groceries.
The reason why I chose this stall is naturally because the things sold at this stall are too complicated.
Zhang Liang deliberately waited for someone to pick at the stall before he stepped forward and directly picked up a talisman.
At this time, the stall owner smiled and said: "Two fellow Taoists, I sell all the fine products here based on quantity and reputation, and I don't try to rip off customers with high prices. What are you two optimistic about?"
Zhang Liang picked one and asked, "Can this talisman help practice?"
The stall owner chuckled: "That's natural. The pure heart talisman is at least a first-level mid-level talisman, because low-level people can't draw it at all. When practicing, affixing this talisman can get twice the result with half the effort. The key is, this pure heart talisman The talisman can be used for seven days, especially suitable for use when the realm is broken."
Zhang Liang shook his head slightly: "Seven days is too short, and I'm still early in the late stage of Qi training, so I won't be able to use them at all. Hey, what's the use of these pearls?"
Zhang Liang pretended to be confused and touched the seven or eight pearls next to him with his fingers. What he mainly touched was not the bird's tail shrimp bead, but the one next to it. However, his little finger and ring finger accidentally touched the bird's tail shrimp bead.
At that moment, Zhang Liang felt something strange, but he tried to stay calm, picked up the pearl next to him and said, "Is there any explanation for this thing?"
The stall owner frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed: "This object is called the Thunder Fire Mysterious Pearl. When faced with life danger, it is driven by spiritual energy and thrown out. It can burst out with terrifying power, comparable to a blow at the peak of Qi training. Of course, the price It’s a little more expensive, but who told me to take the quantity? You only need to pay 99 spiritual stones to buy one.”
"How many?"
"How many?"
Zhang Liang quickly put down the pearl and said: "The Explosive Sword Talisman is only 10 spirit stones. This thing is ten times more expensive than the Explosive Sword Talisman?"
The stall owner smiled and said: "Quality means price. The peak of Qi training cannot be compared with the later stages of Qi training. Fellow Taoist, this is a life-saving treasure!"
Zhang Liang shook his head repeatedly: "With all the belongings I have, I can't even afford one. Let's forget it."
Even the passerby next to Zhang Liang couldn't help but pick one up when he saw this and asked: "Is this thing really comparable to a peak Qi training blow?"
"How can there be lies? If my dignified outer disciple of Lingxian Palace commits fraud, will he be able to hang out in Qingfeng Fairy in the future?"
The stall owner smiled and glanced at the bird tail shrimp beads inadvertently. Seeing that Zhang Liang didn't pick up the beads, he didn't worry too much. After all, he works at the stall every day, and there are quite a few people asking about the Thunder Fire Mysterious Pearl.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Liang shook his head slightly, sighed, and said goodbye.
Just as he was leaving, several passers-by glanced at him inadvertently.
Only two people followed quietly, while the others secretly stared at the guy who was still holding the Thunder Fire Mysterious Pearl.
Zhang Liang, on the other hand, left Qingfeng Xianfang leisurely and set out to sea at a speed that was not very fast.
The two sect disciples didn't think anything at first, because Zhang Liang's boat was not driving very fast. Moreover, it is too common for people to go directly to sea after buying something.
However, they were originally falling far away, but not long after following, the Fangzhou stopped in front of them. They originally thought that this person was going to set up a net to hunt, but then they thought about it and felt something was wrong. Was the net being set up here too close to the shore? This is only more than thirty miles.
"No, keep up."
The two looked at each other and rushed forward.
However, how could there be anyone on the Dharma boat at this moment?
One of them's face changed drastically. He immediately took out the jade slip and shouted hurriedly: "The fish is hooked."
