"We can't afford to offend an emperor-level sect now, not to mention that this business doesn't look like it was done by the same force."
"Oh? How do you say that?"
"The pawn shop pawns, the grocery store sells goods, and the casino can use its own yuan beads as bets. These are obviously three interrelated places. If it is a force, why not do it together? A single hiding place is no better than multiple places. Want better?"
"You mean this is a combination of several big forces?"
"Yes, it is very likely that several emperor-level sects have found some way to fight against the five holy places, and use this combination to secretly enhance their own strength!"
"How to fight against the five holy places is also very important to us!"
"yes!"
Li Wei's heart was pounding. Although the people here did not deliberately hide the pawnshop and Yuanzhu, there is one very important question, that is, they don't know martial arts and are ordinary people who can't even reach the level of a small master. Is this an ordinary person? coincide? Or is it that the forces behind these transactions are doing this deliberately?
Li Wei actually looked down on those who didn't know martial arts, even ordinary warriors, but when he met Qi Chongbao and others, his views changed slightly, and this time it was even more unbelievable.
"They only do business for ordinary people?? People who are not even virtual warriors, what will happen when the time comes?"
If these businesses can make the virtual warriors stronger, even to the point of surpassing the five holy places, then how can these ordinary people become the key?
"Perhaps they don't dare. Once the Xu Shi is involved, they may be discovered. They must do this carefully. Maybe ordinary people have something more important than the Xu Shi and can make better use of it. hour!"
Li Wei smiled and said: "What can ordinary people have? You and I were both ordinary people. Apart from not knowing martial arts and being unable to control Qi and blood, what else can we have?"
"Can't control Qi and blood!"
Li Wei's words reminded Yuan Cheng that no matter whether he knows martial arts or not, everyone can fight. It's just that the speed and moves of punches are different, so the only difference is the blood.
"It's most likely because they don't dare to attract the Five Holy Lands in a big way, but it doesn't rule out that ordinary people can't control the key point of Qi and blood. No matter which kind of Qi and blood may be the ultimate goal!"
"What you said is inconsistent. Ordinary people can't control their Qi and blood. How can it be the key?"
"What about giving up?"
"What?"
"Is giving up Qi and blood the key? Is he stronger than Kyoshi?"
Yuan Cheng's terrifying inference once again frightened Li Wei, "Isn't giving up Qi and blood a waste of martial arts?"
Yuan Cheng also couldn't figure out how to give up Qi and blood, how to forcefully forget something that a person has mastered. It might be more difficult than remembering it.
Yuan Cheng immediately shook his head: "Maybe it's not giving up, maybe it's another way to use Qi and blood? Although ordinary people can't control Qi and blood, they do. Maybe they found a way to collect Qi and blood through time? "
Li Wei nodded and said: "This is more likely. Maybe they are not thinking about the time at all, but the qi and blood?"
Yuan Cheng: "It is very possible that although Lai San's energy and blood did not weaken significantly when he died, no one knows how much of his body actually existed. Over the years, it may have been sucked dry!"
"By the way, there's one more thing I wonder if you've heard of it?"
"What's up?"
"Some time ago, the Qilin Sect was destroyed, and the Five Holy Lands issued a wanted order!"
"I know, it is said that most of the people were killed, leaving only one or two small commanders, and they haven't been found yet!"
"Why did the Five Holy Lands issue a wanted order? The most likely reason is that they destroyed the Qilin Sect. The Qilin Sect did deserve it, but the problem is that there are so many sects in this world that deserved it. Why did they destroy the Qilin Sect alone in these years? "
"You mean greed and delusion?"
"Yes, greed and delusion can absorb the energy and blood of others. Everyone knows this. Do the Five Holy Lands know about it? Maybe they only found out recently. In addition, the incident of the Qilin Cult Prisoner just gave the Five Holy Lands an excuse. Otherwise, why would they choose to do this? Is it the Qilin Sect?”
"What you say does make some sense, but if increasing Qi and blood is the way to surpass Kyoshi, isn't it too easy?"
"Is this easy? We have practiced martial arts hard for so many years, but we still can't get up or down. We can't beat the big ones, and we can barely beat the small ones. If our energy and blood are strengthened several times, it will be a different world. Got it!"
"I didn't mean us!"
"Then what did you say?"
"If increasing Qi and blood is the key to surpassing Xu Shi, or becoming as strong as the Five Holy Lands, then why are there only five such sects in the world?"
"That means it's still not easy!"
Li Wei didn't understand what Yuan Cheng meant.
Yuan Cheng: "It is not easy for us to enhance our Qi and blood, but it is too easy for others, such as the Xuanwu Gate Heavenly Palace in front of us!"
Li Wei slapped his forehead and said: "That's right, why did I forget the Xuanwu Qi of Xuanwu Gate Heavenly Palace!"
"Xuan Wuchang is so powerful. The forty-ninth level of Xuanwu Qi is fifty times as powerful as Qi and blood. Even he can't hit the five holy places. This shows that it's not just about strengthening Qi and blood!"
"Then why are the Five Holy Lands targeting the Qilin Sect? I can't think of any other reason besides greed!"
"Maybe it's the way qi and blood circulate, or maybe some other secret has been discovered!"
The two of them speculated back and forth, but did not come to any useful conclusion. In just two days, the things that happened were too weird, and they were not even completely sure of the authenticity of these things.
In the early morning of the third day, Yuan Cheng and Li Wei came to another magical place - the grocery store.
The casino doesn't allow casual entry, and it's useless to go to the pawn shop at the wrong time, so you can always look at the things being sold.
The grocery store is also an ordinary courtyard. There is a plaque at the door. There is no unnecessary name, just three words "grocery store".
The first room you face after opening the door is the main hall. The furnishings inside are very similar to those of Jade. A long counter blocks the footsteps of the guests. There is an open space behind, and then there are tall cabinets, square and square. The shapes were separated, and a man with an indifferent expression stood in the open space and looked at Yuan Cheng and Li Wei who walked in.
"welcome!"
"Shopkeeper, what are you selling?"
"There are many things, it depends on what you want?"
"Everything?"
"That's not true, it's just that there are a lot of things that you can't buy anywhere else!"
"For example, tell us!"
"For example, there was a lot of commotion on the street yesterday, maybe it was just because of an immortality pill!"
"What does the Immortality Pill do?"
"You can live forever if you eat it!"
"how long?"
"Very long!"
"How much?"
"I don't want money, I want Yuanzhu, twelve of them!"
Sure enough, as the rumors say, money can't buy the elixir of longevity.
"what else?"
"Giant Power Pill, Qi and Blood Pill, Shura Pill!"
"Mythical beast general, hundred beast general, puppet zombie!"
"Yuluo Umbrella, Hundred Rifles, Huntian Sword!"
Li Wei and Yuan Cheng were stunned when they heard this. What is this?
"What are these? What do they do?"
"Eating Juli Dan can make a person's strength increase three to five times, one pill at a time, with no upper limit. Eating Qi and Blood Pills can double a person's energy and blood, one pill at a time, with no upper limit. Shura Pill Eating it can strengthen a person's will several times, it is not fixed and cannot be accumulated."
Yuan Cheng and Li Wei took a deep breath, this was simply too exaggerated.
"Then...what about the others?"
"The Divine Beast will be able to summon the natal Divine Beast, the Hundred Beasts will be able to summon various wild beasts, and the Puppet will be able to summon humanoid puppets. You can follow your heart and do whatever you want!"
"The Yuluo Umbrella can block thousands of attacks, a hundred rifles can kill thousands of people, and the Huntian Sword can cut off the vitality and blood of Xu Shi!"
"Hoo, my God! This is too..."
"How much?"
"No money, all these things just cost Yuanzhu!"
"How many?"
"One Yuan Bead for the Juli Dan, two Yuan Beads for the Qi and Blood Pill, five Yuan Beads for the Shura Pill, nine Yuan Beads for the Divine Beast General, seven Yuan Beads for the Hundred Beast Generals, five Yuan Beads for the Puppet Zombie, and ten Yuan Beads for the Yuluo Umbrella. One yuan pearl, ten yuan pearls for the Hundred Rifle, and twelve yuan beads for the Huntian Sword!"
The prices vary, but some are very cheap, such as the Qi-Blood Pill and the Juli Pill. If you take one or two pills, won’t your strength increase several times?
It's a pity that Yuan Cheng and Li Wei don't have any.
Seeing that Li Wei and Yuan Cheng were silent for a long time, the shopkeeper asked, "What do you two need?"
Li Wei smiled bitterly: "We all want it, but we don't have Yuanzhu!"
The shopkeeper frowned slightly and said: "There is a pawn shop not far away, where you can exchange Yuan beads for them. Seeing that you are strong, it won't be a problem to exchange a few for them!"
Yuan Cheng looked at the cabinets behind the shopkeeper and thought about robbing them, but he was quickly suppressed by himself. After all, the people or forces who can sell these things are really just a group of ordinary people?
Although his martial arts is high, he is afraid. People with higher martial arts may be more afraid.
Li Wei suddenly asked in a confused manner: "Shopkeeper, have you heard of the Five Holy Lands?"
At that moment, the shopkeeper suddenly fell into a trance, his whole body trembled subtly, and replied: "I have heard that the five largest sects in the world, what happened?"
While Li Wei stared at the shopkeeper, he glanced at Yuan Cheng beside him and found that his body also trembled slightly.
"It's nothing. I want to know about the things you sell. If people from the Five Holy Lands come, do they have to give Yuanzhu?"
This time the shopkeeper's body and demeanor did not change at all, and he replied: "Of course, anyone who wants anything here must give it to Yuan Zhu!"
"Ok, I see!"
Li Wei and Yuan Cheng had no Yuanzhu, so they could only leave in anger.
Would you like to be a few Yuanzhu to test whether this matter is true or not?
The same question appeared in their minds at the same time. Li Wei's answer was no, but he did not mention it. He was waiting for Yuan Cheng to ask him.
Sure enough, not far from the grocery store and not far from the pawn shop, Yuan Cheng asked: "Why don't we try to pawn a few yuan beads?"
Li Wei frowned and said: "No way, we can't confirm the truth or falseness of this matter. Going to the time rashly is tantamount to putting yourself in danger!"
"Dangerous situation? That's not the case. Apart from us, there is no one who knows martial arts, not even a great master. Who can threaten us?"
"By the way, did you hear the question I asked the shopkeeper just now?"
Li Wei said something strange again without thinking. How could the two of them not hear it because they were so close to each other just now?
"I heard you, what's wrong?"
"What question am I asking?"
"Well...ask him if he has heard of the Five Holy Lands!"
When Yuan Cheng answered, his body trembled involuntarily and paused.
Li Wei pretended not to see it and continued: "If you want to find out whether this is true or false without offending the forces behind these people, I have a good way!"
Yuan Cheng's eyes lit up at this time and he said: "What good method can you come up with?"
Li Wei frowned and said doubtfully, "We can just grab anyone and try!"
"What? Why arrest someone?"
"Force him to be a Yuanzhu, and then give us Qi and Blood Pills!"
Yuan Cheng's expression was unnatural again and he said: "It's... a method, but how can we control it well and ensure that this person doesn't make any mistakes?"
"That's okay, our goal is not to obtain Qi and Blood Pills anyway!"
"Then...who are you looking for?"
Li Wei looked forward, "Isn't there a suitable person here!"
Beside the bluestone road ahead, there was a man kneeling in ragged clothes. He had a bowl in front of him and a slender cane next to him. He was a beggar.
Some people died, but not completely...
