Chapter 878 Desolate castle(1/3)
Hujiaweizi.
At the core, next to the ancestral hall, is the residence of the head of the Haw Pao family.
Eighteen feet underground, in a secret room, Lu Qian found a half-withered three-foot jade tree. The branches were like amber, the leaves were like glass, and the color was like fire. Only the three half-ripe fruits were all green, like withered green jade.
The jade tree was carefully cultivated in a small flowerpot. Zhou Laodao was surprised by the flowerpot and said that it was purchased from Huangcheng and was a precious object specially used to cultivate spiritual plants. Its material and efficacy were unknown.
But the price is extremely high - such a small flower pot with a square foot and a radius costs one hundred imperial coins!
"Weizi of the Hu family, you are rich... One hundred emperor's coins, how can you buy such a thing?" Zhou Laodao kept shaking his head: "I, Old Zhou, have seen this thing in the Baobao Building in Huangcheng. At that time,
I’m surprised, there are really people who have been taken advantage of and would waste their wealth to buy this thing? I didn’t expect that this tiger and leopard actually hid such a skill!”
Lu Qian narrowed his eyes.
Emperor's money?
It was the first time he heard this thing. There were memory fragments in his mind, but no corresponding information came out. It can be seen that this emperor's money is not too important information, and the old monk Hongchen did not focus on giving it to Lu Qian.
mentioned.
This flowerpot, well, the refining technique is extremely rough.
Although Lu Qian himself is only half-experienced at refining weapons, the Tianlong Zen Staff relied on extremely rare materials and relied on its "self-derivation" and "automatic evolution" to create such a rare treasure. Purely on refining
Lu Qian’s craftsmanship is really shameful!
However, even judging from Lu Qian's level of weapon refining, this flowerpot is extremely rough. In short, it is just a money-scam used to trick people. Apart from a 'stabilizing vitality', it has no other magical effects.
This jade tree was planted in this crudely made flower pot. It was dying and had fallen into a semi-withered state. The three fruits on the tree probably had no hope of maturing.
In the secret room, on a small square table, Lu Qian found a dark green fruit core as small as a soybean. The smell of this core was exactly the same as the three half-ripe fruits on the Yushu... Someone picked the fruit and took it.
It went down, leaving only the core here.
The enlightenment of tigers and leopards should come from this. The fruit of this jade tree has some magical effects. After tigers and leopards got the benefits, they spent a lot of money to get such a flower pot, hoping to cultivate it artificially.
A jade tree, ripening the three fruits on it, so that the Hu family can get greater benefits.
It didn't take much IQ, rich experience and knowledge for Lu Qian to calculate this result. He looked at the sickly tree in the flower pot, shook his head, and sighed helplessly.
He had just communicated with Hongchentian and wanted to take this small tree with magical effects into Hongchentian. With the magic of Hongchentian, he would be able to nourish its vitality and let it grow vigorously.
But after trying hard for a while, he still could only take out a small amount of merit pool water from the world of mortals. He wanted to bring objects from the outside world into the world of mortals, but he couldn't do it for the time being - especially, Lu Qian had an idea and wanted to use it.
When Hongchentian put away the small tree, he had another whim, and an inexplicable crisis came to his mind.
Lu Qian woke up with a start.
In this world, it is best not to use the Buddha Kingdom to store any objects. Even the existence of such treasures as the Buddha Kingdom may be a huge taboo.
Taking a deep look at the small tree, Lu Yi shook his head: "Old Zhou, if you like it, this thing will be yours... If the three fruits are ripened, you might also
Being able to... enlighten the spirit, hey, is it the spiritual enlightenment? You might also be able to successfully enlighten the spirit and add another means out of thin air."
Zhou Laodao smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a straight line.
He was not polite, picked up the flower pot, and said with a cheerful smile: "It's easy to say, easy to say, Brother Fahai, looking at you, you don't have time to take care of this thing... Come on, let me
I'll give it a try this week and see if I can get more benefits out of this baby."
Lu Qian searched the secret room for a while, but couldn't find anything too valuable.
Two long swords of the "Half-step Heavenly Weapon" level, one made of spiritual gold, a powerful crossbow with considerable lethality, and one made of extra materials, which is extremely thick and can almost withstand the continuous heavy blows of Zhou Laodao's cloak sword.
The buckler he shot...that's all he had.
Hujiaweizi, with a population of nearly 10,000, is one of the largest settlements in the wilderness. Put aside the flower pot worth a hundred emperor's money, put aside the half-dead tree, the dignified owner of Hujiaweizi, all the belongings in the secret room
, that’s all!
Lu Qian shook his head, shook his sleeves, and turned to leave.
"This Hu family Weizi can be considered a rich man." Zhou Laodao hugged the flower pot and followed behind Lu Qian.
He explained to Lu Qian that it was not easy to survive in the wilderness. It was already very difficult for forces like the Hujiaweizi to ensure that the people had enough food, clothing, and a safe life. A little accumulation of wealth would be exchanged for various immediate combat forces that could be used.
——A stomach, weapons, various wound medicines or secret medicines for tempering the body, etc...
Unfortunately, the prices for these things are ridiculously high.
There are eighteen pieces of "Half-Step Heavenly Weapon"-level spiritual gold armor in the Hu family's siege, as well as eighteen heavy-duty sabers of the same level, plus those heavy-duty crossbows that can hunt Rifting Wind, and other tribesmen have
The swords, guns, swords and halberds, strong bows and crossbows, etc., are all of excellent quality... With the meager income of the wilderness stronghold, it is not easy to accumulate such wealth!
"This Hubao is also a man who can save money... Such a broken pot, a hundred emperor's money... Tsk, tut, tut, I'm so frustrated and crazy." Zhou Laodao muttered: "But
, Qi Ling, it seems worth it... But if you spend a hundred emperor's money on yourself to practice, will the cultivation you get be better than Qi Ling? "
"However, as the head of the family, I chose to buy this broken pot. If I can ripen the three fruits and add three more enlightened clansmen to the Hu family, it would be better than spending a hundred emperor's money on it.
It’s much more cost-effective to do it yourself.”
"Hey, hey, I have a headache. All these worries are really a headache!"
Zhou Laodao waved his hand: "It's quite strange. Hubao can actually save a hundred emperor's money... Hey, hey, this is not easy. We all know the annual income of his Hu family.
We caravans won’t give him much benefit!”
Lu Qian walked while listening to Zhou Laodao's story.
Caravans like Zhou Laodao go in and out of the wasteland, traveling between deserted cities and wasteland enclosures, buying low and selling high - they collect all kinds of local specialties from forces like Hujiaweizi.
, and then sent to the deserted city to be sold at a high price.
For their own benefit, when they purchased local specialties from various Weizi families, they pushed the profits of each Weizi family to the extreme.
The purchase prices of these caravans are so outrageous that it would make a ghost cry - to put it simply, in the wasteland, ten gorgeous girls can only exchange for two finely forged long knives or long swords... As for
A strong bow with sufficient strength would cost twice as much...if it were a strong crossbow that could hunt ferocious beasts, the price would have to double as well!
And for a yellow-flowered girl, the standard price in the wilderness is about ten sets of perfect beast skins, bones and blood essence!
"How much is an imperial coin worth?" Lu Qian suddenly asked.
"Ten sets of standard combat equipment can be worth one emperor's coin." Zhou Laodao replied subconsciously: "A set of standard combat equipment is a set of full heavy armor, a pure steel spear, a combat knife or a war sword.
Sword, a strong bow, thirty-six pure steel arrows, three well-trained war horses, and two strong men who are proficient in fists and feet. They can assist in wearing armor, take care of the war horses, maintain swords and armor, and can also use the bow during war.
Arrow, a servant to assist in combat!"
Zhou Laodao raised a finger: "These ten sets of standard combat equipment are worth one Little Emperor's money!"
Licking his lips, Zhou Laodao muttered in a low voice: "This tiger and leopard can save a hundred emperor's coins to buy such a broken pot... Tsk, tsk, it's really a big deal, it's just... crazy!"
"
Lu Qingtong was stunned.
He roughly understands the value of Emperor's Money... How can ten sets of standard combat equipment be exchanged for one Little Emperor's Money?
This flower pot of Hu Bao is worth one hundred Little Emperor coins, which is a thousand sets of standard combat equipment? Not to mention other things, this flower pot is worth three thousand well-trained war horses, two thousand people who are proficient in fists and feet, and can
A strong man who takes care of horses and maintains weapons?
"Emperor's money!" Lu Qian raised his fingers towards Zhou Laodao: "Here is one, let's see its quality!"
Lu Qian was very surprised at what this emperor's money looked like.
Is it made of some rare metal or extraordinary material? This value is completely beyond common sense!
Zhou Laodao's face twitched, he gritted his teeth, took out the only two Little Emperor's coins he had, and gave them to Lu Qian with a very "compassionate" sound: "Brother Fahai, let's
I only have these two on me...hey, keep the ones you need to save your life."
Lu Qian took two pieces of emperor's money.
It's very thick and a bit heavy on the hand.
The material is very ordinary, it is made of an extremely ordinary alloy.
But there is a magical restriction inside, and there is a ray of heaven and earth wisdom stored in it that can be absorbed, and more importantly... a trace of insignificant Taoist charm?
Tao Yun?
Lu Qian's eyes shone slightly.
Even if he holds the Seal of the Deputy Town of Loulan, he has the authority to mobilize the spiritual forces of heaven and earth, and is blessed by Emperor Taihu's ax, which enhances this authority a hundred times. He can mobilize a large number of spiritual forces of heaven and earth for his own use, but the big way
Yun can still only be seen from a distance and cannot be touched.
And in this emperor's money, there is actually a trace of the Taoist charm hidden in it. Although it is extremely weak, it does exist, and it can be absorbed and understood!
Lu Chen didn't care to explain anything to Zhou Laodao. As soon as he thought about it, the two emperor's coins in his hand shook slightly.
Two wisps of slight spiritual energy from heaven and earth poured into the body, and with a twist, they were swallowed by Lu Qian's body without leaving any ripples. And two extremely weak strands of the Taoist rhyme of the 'Acquired Golden Path' slowly flowed in,
Large ripples suddenly appeared in Lu Qian's mind.
Tao Yun.
The great path of this world.
Deep, majestic, lofty, mysterious and unfathomable, whether it is 'quantity' or 'quality', or even 'grade', the Taoist rhyme that is tens of millions of times stronger than the Great Way of Heaven and Earth in Liangyi Heaven pours into the body.
This feeling is like two tiny drops of mercury suddenly dripping into the boundless thin mist.
These thin mist, as if they had found some unpredictable template, quickly moved towards the two drops of mercury, then adsorbed on the two tiny drops of mercury, and began to be assimilated by the two drops of mercury, and began to rapidly
It collapses and condenses, and then continuously improves its level!
To be continued...
