The sun is setting.

The sunset was still burning in the sky. Looking at the mountains in the distance, they were covered with a thick layer of ash and were transitioning to black.

The class for one day in the school was over, and the students walked out of the school in groups of three or three.

"I was so happy today. I learned a lot. Especially I learned to use the Moonlight Gu."

"The moon blade is so handsome when flying in the air. Unfortunately, I am not qualified enough. In the future, I can only be a logistics gu master and cannot go to the battlefield." The young men talked with interest.

Some people call friends and companions.

"Let's go have a meal together and have some rice wine by the way, how about it?"

"Okay, that's a good suggestion."

"You go first, I have to go to the shop in the school's Gu room to buy a straw man puppet, so that it's easy to go home to practice."

...

Fang Yuan came to the Gu room alone.

There are many types of insects stored in the school’s Gu room, and Fang Yuan’s Moonlight Gu is selected from it for free.

Every once in a while, the students will have a chance to receive the Gu worm for free. If you want to obtain the Gu worms, you will have to pay.

Fang Yuan had no intention of refining other insects in a short period of time. He walked to the next door of the insect room, which was a small shop.

There are seven students in the shop who are bargaining with the shop owner for buying the straw man puppet.

"It's my junior." The master of the Yi-Transferred Gu who was in his twenties looked like he was in his twenties. When he saw Fang Yuan, he took the initiative to say hello to Fang Yuan while doing business.

Fang Yuan was surprised and found that this Gu master was Jiang Ya, the young Gu master who taught hunters a lesson in the inn.

"So it's senior." Fang Yuan nodded with a expressionless face.

While taking out a straw man puppet from the counter behind him and handing it to a purchaser, Jiang Ya smiled kindly at Fang Yuan and asked, "Are you here to buy straw man puppets? Do you want to leave one for you? It only costs three Yuan stones. This thing sold very quickly, and now there are only seven left. If it is too late, it will be out of stock."

He was arrogant and ill-gotten to mortals, but he was very kind to Fang Yuan and the others.

Fang Yuan shook his head, feeling funny: Jiang Ya is quite good at doing business. The straw man puppet is made of the straw man Gu. If the investment in true energy is included, the cost price is only one and a half yuan stone.

"Senior, you are no longer authentic. Come first and then come, why should you keep it for him?"

"Yes, we have come a long time ago. We have to follow the rules when doing business."

"Three pieces are just three pieces, Yuan Shi will give you, and I will give me a puppet."

When the teenagers in the store heard that there were only seven puppets left, they were anxious and did not continue to bargain. They took out Yuanshi to buy them.

Soon, the seven people left with satisfaction.

"Do you want to buy a straw man puppet?" Jiang Ya asked with a smile, "It's said that it's sold out just now. In fact, there is still the eighth one, which is at the bottom of the box. If you don't buy it, you will miss the opportunity."

Fang Yuan had no interest in the grass man puppet. He shook his head, took out a Yuan stone, and placed it on the counter: "I'll buy ten moon orchid petals."

Jiang Ya was stunned, looked at Fang Yuan deeply, took out Yuan Shi, pulled open the drawer at the counter, and took out a paper bag: "Ten moon orchid petals, one is a lot, you dot it."

Fang Yuan checked in person and found out that it was correct, so he left the shop.

Guworms need to be fed.

The Gu master refining the Gu and using the Gu, and he also needs to raise the Gu.

Refining Gu is difficult and has the danger of backlash. Using Gu is not easy and requires a lot of practice. The knowledge of raising Gu is even more profound, because there are all kinds of Gu insects and their food is strange.

Some need to swallow the soil, some need starlight, some take tears, and some suck the clouds in the nine heavens.

Take Fang Yuan’s current three Gu insects. Moonlight Gu needs to swallow the petals of moon orchids, two meals a day, one meal in the morning and evening, and two petals at each meal. The wine insect needs to drink alcohol. A jar of green bamboo wine can support it for four days. The cicada in spring and autumn is even more unique. It drinks water directly from the river of time to maintain vitality.

The river of time supports the movement of this world. It is not far away in the sky, but is close to everyone, flowing around everyone.

Every move of all living things requires time to promote it.

Time passes by like flowing water. The river of time is invisible and colorless, and all living things actually live and live in the river of time.

After buying this bag of moon orchid petals, Fang Yuan went to the inn and bought green bamboo wine.

Wineworms can also drink some turbid wine, rice wine makes a living. However, once this kind of inferior wine is used, the amount you drink will be larger and you have to count jars every day. Fang Yuan calculated that it would be better to buy green bamboo wine directly. Not only is it more cost-effective than buying inferior wine, but it will not cause doubt.

"Young Master, you are here." The inn's guy already knew Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan threw three Yuan stones directly to him and said with great ease: "Put a jar of green bamboo wine for me, and then make me some good dishes. No need to find change, put it here first, and wait until the piece is finished together at the end of the month, and the more you get it back and forth."

Although he no longer lives in the inn and moves to the school dormitory, he will eat here every time he buys wine.

"Okay. Young Master, please sit here, the food and drink will be ready soon." The guy responded and led Fang Yuan to the seat. He took out the rag on his shoulder, wiped the table and stool diligently before leaving.

As the guy said, the wine and food were served quickly.

Fang Yuan was consuming the account while thinking: "A Yuan stone can buy ten petals, and the moonlight Gu consumes four pieces every day. A jar of green bamboo wine is worth two Yuan stones, which can support the wineworms need for four days. In other words, just feeding these two Gu will consume nearly one Yuan stone every day."

This seems to be small, but it is actually very expensive. A mortal family of three has a monthly living expenses of only one Yuan stone.

It has been sixteen days since the refining of the Gu insect. Just raising the Gu, it has cost Fang Yuanyuan's 14 and a half yuan stones.

"I got the flower wine and took away a bag of Yuanshi from Fang Zheng, and received the first prize. The Yuanshi assets once reached 44 and a half yuan. However, it took six and a half yuan to refine the Gu in the early stage, and it took fourteen and a half yuan to feed the Gu insects, and half a yuan to live. Now there should be twenty yuan left."

Fang Yuan took out the money bag and opened it to see that there were pieces of Yuan stones inside.

These Yuan stones are all gray-white, with ellipsoids, and are of the same size as duck eggs.

After counting, there were only twenty yuan left.

In other words, if there is no entry, Fang Yuan's remaining Yuanshi will only last for him for half a month. Unlike other peers, he has more or less relatives and friends around him, especially those of Gu Yue Mobei and Gu Yue Chicheng, who are not short of Yuanshi at all.

But Fang Yuan could only think of a way himself.

"My uncle and aunt have cut off my living expenses, but every weekend, the family school will issue three yuan stone subsidies to the students. It seems that in the Moon Blade Assessment three days later, I should show it and get the ten yuan stone reward." Fang Yuan thought while chewing the food in his mouth.

His age was when he was growing up. Before he knew it, all the food fell into his stomach.

Picking up the Qingzhu wine without Kaifeng, Fang Yuan stepped up and walked out of the inn.

"Young master, your son." The shop guy behind him chased him up, "Tell me something. In less than a month, a caravan will come to copy the village. According to convention, they will buy the Qingzhu wine in our store. The young master loves Qingzhu wine and comes to buy a few jars every week. The shopkeeper ordered that the young master tell me about this. The Qingzhu wine in our store is limited, and if the caravan is sold, there will be very few left."

"That's right?" Fang Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this.

Fang Yuan has five hundred years of experience in knowing people and debating. The shop guy and the young Gu master Jiang Ya said similar meanings, but Fang Yuan could naturally distinguish between Jiang Ya’s false words and the shop guy’s truth.

This is a bit troublesome. Fang Yuan needs to feed the wine insects. In the long run, the amount of green bamboo wine required is very large.

If this inn is out of stock, I am afraid that in the future, I will only be able to use a large amount of inferior wine to feed the wineworms.

It is impossible for him to drink several jars of wine a day, and over time, it will lead to doubt.

After thinking about it, Fang Yuan took out ten Yuan stones: "Then buy five more jars, ask me to take them, and go with me to the school dormitory."

"Yes, young master." The guy hurriedly took Yuan Shi.

If there is no storage method for the moon orchid petals, they can only be stored for five days, so Fang Yuan only buys one pack at a time. However, Qingzhu wine can be stored for a long time, so there is no problem in this regard.

Several guys followed Fang Yuan into the school dormitory, placed the wine jar under the bed, and said goodbye.

Looking at the purse that suddenly faded in his hand, Fang Yuan sighed.

Refining a Gu is hard, and raising a Gu is not easy.

This is because he has five hundred years of experience in his previous life. Without practicing using the insects, it means that the consumption of true energy is reduced, which saves a lot of money.

Like the peers around you, if you want to practice using Moonlight Gu, you have to consume true energy. To improve your proficiency, you have to practice it a few more times. The true energy consumes too much and recovers too slowly, so you can only use Yuan stones to supplement it. If you buy a straw man puppet, you will need three Yuan stones. This is all money.

"Fortunately, my Spring and Autumn cicadas are for eating time, not other foods. Otherwise, I would have gone bankrupt long ago and I could not support it at all." Fang Yuan suddenly felt very grateful.

The higher the level of the Gu worm, the greater the appetite, or the more precious or rare the food, the more difficult it is to raise. A common Gu worm with a second-level transformation level consumes between one and two pieces of Yuan stone every day.

It is quite good to buy food. Some foods from insects are particularly difficult to find, and there is no such goods on the market.

Just like the food of cicadas in spring and autumn is time, this is actually even more precious.

As the saying goes, money cannot buy time.

No matter how much money you have, can you buy time?

Can't buy it!

Theoretically, the number of Gu masters who refine Gu insects is unlimited. As long as you can refine ten, one hundred, or even one thousand. If you want to refine as many Gu, you can refine as many Gu.

But in fact, a Gu master usually only has four or five Gu insects.

Why?

The biggest reason is that you can't afford it.

The higher the grade of the Gu insect, the more expensive the feeding cost. It often makes Gu masters stretched and have a headache.

Another reason is that it cannot be used.

To activate the Moonlight Gu and issue a Moon Blade attack, one must consume one true energy. A Gu master with C qualifications will launch three or four attacks, and the true energy in the empty orifice will be consumed.

No matter how many insects you raise, you can’t use them, will it be useless to feed them?

Therefore, there is a saying that spread throughout Gu Master’s practice.

Raising a Gu is like raising a mistress.

To raise a mistress, you have to buy food, clothes, houses, etc. It is very expensive. If you raise too much, it will be very expensive and ordinary people can't afford it.

Even if you can raise so much, a man's energy is always limited and he can't afford it. Will he enjoy the pleasure of raising his eyes in vain?

The Gu Master's level has been improved, but the food standards of Gu Immortals have also been improved. Therefore, although there is no limit on the number of Gu Immortals to refine Gu Immortals, Gu Immortals generally only raise four or five Gu Immortals of the same level.

If there are more numbers, the Gu Master will go bankrupt!
