On March 27, Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun returned to Daicheng and moved into the villa in Taohuayu.
He bought the entire Taohua Valley, seven villas and two B&Bs.
Those tourists traveling from north to south, happily traveling, watching peach blossoms in bloom, gurgling streams, and staying in bed and breakfasts at night, but they don’t know whose hands the money spent ends up.
Taohuayu is not far from Banshan Villa, and it takes less than half an hour by car.
Lu Cheng felt very comfortable staying here. During the day, he breathed into the peach blossoms, and at night, he used the jade ring to travel to other worlds.
"One Sword Dominates"
When he opened his eyes, he was already in a cave in another world, with an oil lamp hanging on the stone wall.
Qingmei was not lying on the wooden bed, but standing near the small window, breathing in the moonlight through the window.
Lu Cheng stood up, took out a plastic bucket, and said to Qingmei: "Use this kind of lamp oil from now on!"
Qingmei turned around and said in a soft voice: "Brother, you're awake. What kind of oil is this?"
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "This is aviation kerosene. I specially ordered it from the manufacturer." But he said: "This is odorless oil. It burns stably, is not easy to coke, and has low carbon deposits."
Qingmei took out another copper lamp, filled it with kerosene and lit it. It was indeed much brighter than tung oil!
Lu Cheng said: "I haven't taught you any runes for a while."
Qingmei was so happy that she quickly put the copper lamp on the table and took out the animal skin book.
Lu Cheng taught dozens of runes, then took out a few Tiger Dove Pills and said, "This is the pill I refined. Take two of them yourself, and then give two to Li Ju and Jiong Sheng, and ask them to give them to you." Evaluation, what is the difference between it and the Tiger Dove Pill outside?"
He had only heard about the name of Tiger Dove Pill, but had never seen this kind of pill with his own eyes, so he wanted to ask someone.
Qingmei agreed: "Okay, I'll go tomorrow."
The next day, Lu Cheng came to Wu Luo's courtyard and presented some golden talismans.
Wu Luo said: "Wu Kuang, if you have time, make more talisman papers. There are still 60 days until the beginning of spring, and I am still short of 300 talisman papers. If I still can't get them all in the end, I can only buy them outside. You also know , buying talisman paper requires jade coins, and I am not willing to spend this money. Moreover, the price of talisman paper has soared recently, and it is not easy to buy enough."
Lu Cheng said: "Master, do you still have enlightenment pills? Can you give me a few? I can stay up all night to help you make talisman papers, and I guarantee to provide 200 of them! The remaining 100 will be left to a few senior brothers and sisters to make."
"Can you really complete 200 pictures?"
"Just have the Enlightenment Pill."
Wu Luo turned around and took out 5 Kaiming Pills and two dark green pills, and said: "Kaiming Pills cannot be eaten all at once. Although it can promote the growth of the soul, it has potential damage to the physical body. It must be cooperated with the "Return" Yuan Dan', to ensure that the Qi of the five internal organs is continuous."
"Master, why is it called 'Guiyuan Pill'?"
"Three flowers gather at the top, and five qi return to the origin."
Lu Cheng was stunned when he heard this: "Master, where did you hear this statement?"
There are two spiritual trees in his marrow sea, which release a large amount of knowledge and skills. Although there is the "Five Qi Returning to the Origin Technique", there is no such term as "Three Flowers Gathering on the Top".
He has always felt that three flowers gather at the top and five qi return to the origin. This is the saying of later Taoists, and the origin of Taoism began when Laozi wrote the "Tao Te Ching". Laozi was born in the Spring and Autumn Period, 571 BC.
Wu Luo explained: "I heard it from Master Wu Sheng. He went to the Feng Clan when he was young. There were several witch kings in the Feng Clan. They occasionally gave lectures and mentioned that 'three flowers gather at the top and five qi return to the origin'. "
"Oh, Master, are these Guiyuan Pills refined by Master Wu Sheng?" Lu Cheng thought to himself: "Maybe Wu is the originator of Tao. There were witches first, and then there was immortality? Or maybe immortality is a branch of witches? Immortalism is worshiped Huangdi and Pengzu, these two are the Witch Emperor and the Witch King..."
Wu Luo said: "Guiyuan Pill is not considered a high-level pill. Last time Master Wu Sheng refined 3,000 pills, and most of them were dedicated to the Witch Temple. I will help you find a few more pills later."
"Thank you, master."
Lu Cheng came out of Wu Luo's courtyard, performed the Feixu Jue, and walked through the thick snow to the feudal city.
He came to the Witch Temple and met a middle-aged female cultivator who was in charge of the reception. He asked about the Guiyuan Pill and the Kaiming Pill. It turned out that both pills were available, and they cost 500 jade coins each.
He took out the self-made Tiger Dove Pill and said: "This is a pill I got by chance. It is said to be the Tiger Dove Pill. Can you ask the appraiser from the temple to help me see the difference between it and the Tiger Dove Pill."
"Okay, please pay 100 jade coins."
Lu Cheng took out the jade coins, along with the homemade elixir, and handed them to the middle-aged female cultivator in charge of reception.
The middle-aged female cultivator handed the elixir to a subordinate, who took the elixir to a room deep in the hall.
After a long while, the subordinate came back and said a few words to the middle-aged female cultivator.
The middle-aged female cultivator waved Lu Cheng over and said: "After identification, although this is the Tiger Dove Pill, it does not meet the specifications of the Witch Temple. If it is twice the size, it will be qualified. The Tiger Dove Pill is in short supply. We can collect it at 1,200 jade coins each. Your elixir is too small and we cannot collect it."
Lu Cheng was overjoyed: "Thank you very much. I want to buy three Guiyuan Pills and two Enlightenment Pills!"
"Do you have 2,500 jade coins?"
"Yes, I finally saved enough."
Lu Cheng asked again: "If I want to learn spells, I don't know which master I can learn from?"
The middle-aged female nun said: "You are a little witch. As long as you have jade coins, you can come to the witch temple at any time and learn spells."
"How many jade coins will it cost?"
"One spell, three jade coins!"
"I understand." Lu Cheng thought to himself, "It's really a good deal!"
He came out of the Witch Temple and walked around the city, visiting several shops.
These shops range from large to small, with a wide range of items.
There is a very large shop called "Jiucai Tang", which is actually a wooden structure with three floors.
Lu Cheng walked in and saw many cupboards in the room, filled with various items.
The young man in the store laughed along and asked, "What do you want to buy?"
Lu Cheng said: "What treasure do you have?"
"Baby? I don't know what you are referring to. Jiucai Hall has many valuable things. Please tell me, what are you interested in?"
"I want to find some novel things, especially elixirs, elixirs, spiritual bones, and seeds of spiritual grass."
"We have the seeds of a rare spiritual grass, which is the 'ghost grass' from Niushou Mountain. The leaves are similar to oil sunflowers, and the stems are red in color, tall and beautiful. After people eat this grass, they will no longer have worries and worries. "
Lu Cheng's eyes lit up: "Can ghost grass make people forget their worries? That's a good thing! How many seeds do you have? How to sell them?"
"One seed, ten jade coins, how many do you want?"
"Can the seeds you sell germinate?"
"That's hard to say."
"Take out the seeds and let me pick them myself!"
The young man picked up a clay pot from the bottom of the cupboard and carefully opened the lid. There was a small package inside. He opened the layers of deerskin packages and found hundreds of seeds the size of sesame seeds inside.
Lu Cheng picked out 50 seemingly plump seeds and said, "That's all, wrap them up for me!"
The young man wrapped him in deerskin and said, "500 jade coins!"
Lu Cheng asked: "Do you have 500-year-old vulture bones and 300-year-old spiritual tiger bones here?"
"We have some spirit tiger bones, but vulture bones need to be ordered. They can be sent from other cities. Our Jiucai Hall does not only have this store, but has stores in multiple cities. If you want any rare items, you can report them Name, pay a 10% deposit, and we will try our best to find it for you.”
"Okay, then I'll order a batch of vulture bones and a batch of spirit tiger bones."
He paid a deposit and received a bronze plaque with runes on it.
The young man smiled and said: "In a month, you can buy vulture bones with the bronze medal."
"Do I have to do it myself? Can I ask the maid to come?"
"No problem. As long as you have the bronze medal and jade coins. If you don't come for more than three months, the vulture bones will be sent away, and the deposit will not be refunded."
"Well, I also want a rare thing called the 'gui tree fruit'. Have you heard of it?"
"This...I haven't heard of it. I'll ask you later. If there is, I'll tell you when you come next time."
"I heard that there is a tree in Zhongqu Mountain. Its shape is similar to a Tang tree, but its leaves are round and the fruit it produces is red. It is the 'fruit of the tree'. The fruit is as big as a papaya. People will eat it after eating it. Be filled with strength and become infinitely powerful.”
"Such a good thing will probably be sold out before it reaches the feudal city."
Lu Cheng turned to leave, but he stopped again and said, "Have you ever heard of 'Ganmu'?"
Ganmu is the legendary immortal tree. Eating it can lead to immortality.
The young man shook his head: "No."
"Is there any magic elixir that can prolong life?"
"There are ginseng and lingzhi."
"Do you have any seeds of Ganoderma lucidum and Ganoderma lucidum here?"
“Only the finished product, no seeds.”
"I want some ginseng and lingzhi. Please take them out and show them to me."
The clerk took out a ginseng plant as thick as an arm and a Ganoderma lucidum plant about a foot in diameter, and said, "50 jade coins each."
Lu Cheng thought: "It's much more expensive than the ginseng I got last time!"
He took out his jade coins and bought some ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, intending to take them back to "Xianshentang" for sale. He had plenty of jade coins. He could just tell Minghu Jade Factory how many he wanted and have them stamp them out with a machine. All they used were dark green Daishan jade.
Lu Cheng left the feudal city, returned to his cave, and began to make talisman paper.
In the afternoon, Qingmei came in from outside wrapped in snow leopard skin, carrying a cold wind.
It's the Great Cold season just around the corner, the temperature outside is very low, it's freezing cold, and dripping water turns into ice.
There was still some warmth in the cave, and firewood was burning in the stove.
Qingmei said excitedly: "Brother, I met Li Ju and Jiong Sheng. I showed them the elixir you refined. They said it was the Tiger Dove elixir, but the size was too small. Even so, they still wanted it. , Li Ju was given 1,200 jade coins, and Jiong Sheng was only given 1,000 jade coins."
Lu Cheng said: "Okay, please take a rest first. I don't accept jade coins, I only need rare items. I won't provide too many pills. You can take a small amount of Tiger Dove Pills and barter with them in exchange for useful things." .”
Although he had jade coins, he couldn't take out too many at one time, so he exchanged them for elixirs as a way to change things.
