Tian Xiaoding tricked Chu Changtai into joining his Dazhao Mountain, and Chu Changtai readily agreed.
Seeing the large number of Xiao Ding's elixirs, Chu Changtai couldn't help but become curious, but Xiao Ding advised him not to ask any more questions, and excused himself on the grounds that it was not difficult to buy these elixirs on Huaxuan Continent.
After breakfast, everyone left the inn together. After doing some research in the city, I learned that there is no intercity teleportation array in the city.
It turns out that Luming City is a small city, and the city owner has not invited the formation master to come and set up the formation.
In this case, Xiao Ding and the others can only walk out of the city and then take the Feiyun Shuttle.
After leaving the city, the six of them boarded Xiao Ding's Feiyun Shuttle. Xiao Ding took out the map, pointed at a place called Kaguya City just south of Luming City and said: "This Kaguya City is the closest to Luming City. Let’s go to Kaguya City to see it.”
Naturally, no one had any objections to Xiao Ding's proposal.
So, a few people took the Flying Cloud Shuttle and flew towards Kaguya City together.
On the way, the four women sat in the cabin and continued to talk about their experiences. Chu Changtai was sitting on the bow of the Feiyun Shuttle with Xiao Ding, chatting about some messy things in the world of cultivation.
Speaking of Fengluanzhou's loss, Chu Changtai couldn't help but sigh.
No matter how good Hua Xuanzhou is, it is still a foreign country. When people are in a foreign country, they always feel like they are living under someone else's roof. How can they live in a secure place in their own homeland?
Xiao Ding has a different view on this. He said: "I think that our human monks on Tiankun Planet will definitely not give up here. How can we just give up a piece of land as big as Fengluan Continent? I think that once we human monks find it If we get a chance, we will definitely fight back."
Chu Changtai sighed and said: "I hope so, I don't know if I will be able to see that day in my lifetime, alas..."
Xiao Ding comforted him and said: "Brother Chu, please don't worry. Since you have chosen to follow me, I will definitely find a way to make you successfully form the elixir in your lifetime."
After hearing Xiao Ding's words, Chu Changtai immediately became energetic. He said gratefully: "Tian Engong, uh——, brother Tian, you are simply my great savior! If you can help me successfully form the elixir, it will be equivalent to helping me extend my life for another hundred years. Even if I am completely devastated, I still can’t repay you for your kindness!”
Xiao Ding waved his hands nonchalantly and said, "Brother Chu, I'm serious. Helping you form the elixir is just a gesture for me. It's nothing. However, as long as your cultivation level improves, you can help me." I guard the stronghold, that is the best reward for me, and it is not in vain for me to save you."
When Chu Changtai heard this, he immediately expressed his position and said: "Of course, Brother Tian's cottage in the future will be my Chu Changtai's cottage. If anyone dares to come and invade Dazhao Mountain, I, Chu Changtai, will be the first to refuse."
After hearing this, Xiao Ding laughed loudly and said, "Okay, Brother Chu, with your words, I will feel more relieved."
Everyone on the Feiyun Shuttle was chatting about their own things, but they didn't feel lonely on the road.
The Mei sisters in the cabin had always had the impression of Ouyang Qing being cold and indifferent to everyone.
But this time after they sat alone in the cabin, the Mei sisters discovered that Ouyang Qing had changed a lot than before. Although she still doesn't like to talk much, her words are no longer as cold as before.
Is this the change in women before and after marriage?
In fact, what the Mei sisters didn't know was that the arrogance in Ouyang Qing's bones had been destroyed long ago when Xiao Ding went to Meeru Island to mess around during the seven years he lived in the Qiankun Pot.
On Meeru Island, she had done such shameless things, how could she still be so arrogant?
Now, Ouyang Qing, who has been trained by Xiao Ding, is less cold and a little more gentle than before. Although her jealous temper has not changed much, her attitude towards the confidante around Xiao Ding is no longer the same hostile attitude as before.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Mei sisters, Ouyang Qing has changed a lot.
Kaguya City is only a few thousand miles away from Luming City. At the current speed of Xiao Ding's Feiyun Shuttle, it only takes one day to fly.
Just as the sun was setting, Xiao Ding and others walked into Kaguya City.
Many shops and stalls on both sides of the streets in the city were preparing to close their stalls as it was getting late.
Although Tiankun is a world of cultivation, its technology is very backward. Therefore, if it gets dark, many businesses will not be able to continue operating.
Xiao Ding and the others were walking forward, preparing to find an inn to stay in so they could rest tonight.
However, inadvertently, Xiao Ding suddenly discovered that there was an old man sitting there with a sad face on the roadside not far ahead. On the stall in front of him was a wooden box, which looked very shabby.
What's strange is that while other stalls are busy packing up and preparing to leave, this old man is motionless, still sitting there with a sad look on his face.
In fact, what attracted Xiao Ding was not the old man, but the old wooden box placed on the stall in front of the old man.
Xiao Ding suddenly had an intuition in his heart, feeling that the thing contained in this wooden box must be something useful to him, and he was determined not to miss it this time.
So, Xiao Ding came to the stall and said to the frowning old man: "Excuse me, old man, what kind of item are you selling?"
When the old man saw Xiao Ding and the small group approaching, he quickly raised his head and replied, "This is an ancestral treasure of my family. I don't know exactly what it is."
Xiao Ding nodded and said, "Then can you open the box and let us take a look?"
The old man hesitated for a moment and explained: "This treasure in my house looks a bit ordinary. Are you sure you want to see it?"
Xiao Ding had actually checked the situation inside the box through his spiritual consciousness, and had already figured it out in his mind, so he said: "Since you want to sell it and I want to buy it, I still have to see what it is."
Seeing that Xiao Ding insisted on seeing the goods, the old man had no choice but to stretch out his two skinny hands, take the wooden box from the stall over with trembling hands, and slowly open the lid.
At this time, in addition to Xiao Ding and the other six people, there were also many melon-eaters who also came over.
In fact, this is also normal. People are curious. There was no one at the old man's stall before, so no one came to join in the fun. As for Xiao Ding and the others, there were six people here at once. When others saw people gathered here, they would naturally think that there would be something lively to see here, so they all came over.
The moment the old man opened the lid of the wooden box, everyone onlookers turned their attention to the inside of the wooden box.
Inside the wooden box, I saw an earth-yellow brick lying quietly and flatly. Nothing else.
"Why is it a brick?" Someone in the crowd immediately shouted.
"Are the bricks also an heirloom of their family?"
"This old man is a liar at first glance. He is deliberately trying to deceive people..."
"Yes, he was here this morning to deceive people with this brick, and no one has ever been fooled..."
"Only a fool would be fooled. Do you know how much money he asks for?"
"How much does it cost?"
"He asked for one million low-grade blue spiritual stones, otherwise he wouldn't sell them."
"What? A rotten brick, and a million spiritual stones! Why doesn't he go and rob it?"
"..."
Xiao Ding ignored the melon-eating crowd around him. At this moment, he was staring at the brick and secretly letting go of his consciousness to explore the internal situation of the brick.
However, he searched for a long time and found no results.
Is this really just an ordinary rotten brick?
But Xiao Ding's intuition told him that this rotten brick was definitely not an ordinary item.
The old man had obviously experienced the criticism of the melon-eaters. He looked a little embarrassed and said: "Young man, to be honest, I am not a cultivator, and I don't see what is so strange about this treasure in my family. When my ancestors handed it down, no one knew it was What are the specific uses of something? Only my family’s ancestral precepts have always emphasized that this treasure is extremely valuable, and the descendants of the family must keep it properly and never sell it unless absolutely necessary."
Xiao Ding asked curiously: "So, old man, you must have encountered something unavoidable, right?"
The old man nodded and said: "Yes, to tell you the truth, my youngest son wants to cultivate. Before, he met a disciple of the Kaguya Sect in our city lord's palace. The disciple of the Kaguya Sect helped him introduce him to join the Kaguya Sect. Ye Sect. However, my son’s qualifications are not enough, and he seems to have some kind of mixed Tiangen, so the Kaguya Sect refuses to accept him. Then, my son wants to find connections and then join them."
"Looking for connections to join?" Xiao Ding asked doubtfully. Xiao Ding also knew a little about the selection of disciples from major sects. When an ordinary sect chooses a disciple, the most important thing is naturally Tiangen. Disciples with good Tiangen, everyone is rushing to get them. Disciples with bad Tiangan will be regarded as useless by everyone and will be disliked wherever they go.
The old man continued: "Yes, their Kaguya Sect has a rule, that is, if a person with bad Tiangan wants to join their sect and become a formal disciple, he needs to be introduced by an acquaintance and then hand over one million yuan. You can join with low-grade blue spiritual stones.”
When Xiao Ding heard this, he thought to himself, this Kaguya Sect is quite good at economics!
Even in Huaxuanzhou, one million blue low-grade spiritual stones is not a small amount.
So, he then asked: "So, how many spiritual stones do you plan to sell for this heirloom?"
"One million low-grade blue spiritual stones." After saying that, the old man lowered his head in shame...
