When Chen Pingzhi was about to reach out to pick up the storage bag on the waist of the skeleton, the skeleton, which was originally shrugging its head, suddenly raised its head and looked at him with a "creak, creak".
Then, and then nothing more...
Chen Pingzhi just waved his hand, and the heads of the skeletons were blown away by him, and then the storage bag and the khaki magic weapon Taoist robe he was wearing became in his hands.
He weighed the two storage bags in his hands and saw something wrong with Zhou Yang's face outside the door. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood why and couldn't help but smile and said:
"Little friends, there is no need to be surprised. Those legendary things about monks leaving behind methods to harm people after they have passed away are impossible to happen to monks below the Golden Core stage. The skeleton was able to move just now, but it was just a breath of resentment left in front of it.
It's just causing trouble, it can scare those ordinary people, and any monk in the Qi training stage can beat it to nothing!"
"My knowledge is shallow, but I made my seniors laugh." Zhou Yang smiled at himself, feeling that he had thought too much before.
There is an old saying that goes: It is better to have no books than to believe in books.
He has also read a lot of strange things in the world of cultivation. As a result, this ordinary cave exploration was automatically substituted into those senior monks exploring the magic nest of a certain golden elixir demon or the powerful Nascent Soul, Operation Immortal Mansion.
, everything I look at seems to be potentially dangerous.
In fact, for a foundation-building monk's cave, the greatest resistance and source of danger is often the protective formation.
Like the current owner of this "Thousand Machines Cave", someone who can put two third-order puppet beasts to protect the cave is already very rare among the monks in the foundation building period. Even some caves left by monks in the purple mansion period may not be able to do this.
this point.
"Hahaha, it's my first time to participate in this kind of activity, so it's completely normal for me to have such thoughts. Wasn't it the same for Chen at the beginning?" Chen Pingzhi laughed, but he understood Zhou Yang's thoughts very well and didn't pay much attention to it.
With a flash of consciousness, he planted the mark of his consciousness in the storage bag that had lost its owner for many years, and then took out all the contents of the two storage bags.
Because I don’t know how many years have passed, many items in the storage bag have lost their spirituality due to lack of spiritual energy nourishment for a long time, including several low-quality third-level magic weapons.
However, combined with the two storage bags, there are still many good things that can still be used.
The most valuable among them are three gleaming third-level magic weapons. These three magic weapons are a crimson flying sword, a large khaki seal, and a small bronze bell. Among them, the flying sword and the large
The seals are all third-level high-grade magical instruments, and the small bronze bell is also a top-quality third-order medium-grade magical instrument.
If you add in the two third-level puppet beasts and a third-level low-grade cauldron, Chen Pingzhi's harvest this time is really extremely rich.
No wonder he would rather waste favors and find an outsider like Zhou Yang to get involved for the sake of this cave rather than act together with the foundation-building monks of the Chen family.
If he and the foundation-building monks from the Chen family came here together, at least 30% to 40% of the treasures here would be given to others, which would be worth ten or twenty thousand spiritual stones.
"How do you think Zhou Xiaoyou should divide these things?"
Just when Zhou Yang was looking at the three magic weapons on the ground with wide eyes and envy, Chen Pingzhi had already come back to his senses and looked at him with bright eyes and asked about the distribution.
This issue is very sensitive, and if it is not handled well, it may cause serious consequences. Even if he has a background like the Chen family and has a much higher level of cultivation than Zhou Yang, he still has to ask Zhou Yang for his opinion.
When Zhou Yang heard him asking this, he was also stunned.
How should he answer?
Although the two of them had previously agreed that Chen Pingzhi would give him a 10 to 20% share of the trip's harvest depending on the level of his actions, it is worth explaining how to calculate the level of his actions.
From Chen Pingzhi's perspective, even if Zhou Yang hadn't taken action before, his life would not have been in danger, so naturally he didn't want to give Zhou Yang an extra ten percent.
But thinking from Zhou Yang's perspective, if he hadn't taken action, Chen Pingzhi would have missed at least two precious third-order puppet beasts, and would have also used up his trump card. This loss is not comparable to a 10% gain.
Therefore, Zhou Yang really didn't know how to answer Chen Pingzhi's question for a while.
At this moment, he was secretly scolding Chen Pingzhi for being cunning and deliberately leaving this choice to him. No matter what answer he gave now, at least Chen Pingzhi would be able to find a reason to refute his answer.
Time passed slowly, and Chen Pingzhi just watched Zhou Yang think quietly without saying anything to urge him, but his gaze was actually an attitude.
Zhou Yang recalled all the experiences of this trip in his mind, and after thinking about it again and again, he finally made a decision.
He raised his head and looked at Chen Pingzhi calmly, and said slowly: "Since senior Chen asked this junior how to allocate the money, then this junior should be bold enough to tell me his thoughts."
"Senior Chen has gained a total of two third-level puppet beasts, four third-level magic weapons, and many spiritual stones and jade slips on the ground during this trip. These things, even if the junior only takes 10%, they are still worth it.
A third-level low-grade magic weapon, right?"
"The juniors are not greedy for more. The seniors can just give the third-level cauldron that they obtained earlier to the juniors. In addition, please allow the juniors to make a copy of the jade slips here and bring them back to the family collection!"
The allocation method he mentioned was also the best choice made after much thought.
Although the third-level weapon tripod is precious and will definitely not lose in value to any third-level mid-level magical weapon, Chen Pingzhi is not an weapon refiner. After obtaining this magical weapon, he can only transfer it to others, and as far as Zhou Yang knows
, the third-level weapon refiner of the Chen family already has a better cauldron.
As for the copying of jade slips, this is the default rule when cultivators form a team to explore. For jade slips, a knowledge inheritance treasure that can be copied multiple times, participants have the right to make a copy for collection. At this time, he proposed
This request is not excessive at all.
"Okay." Chen Pingzhi thought for a moment, then nodded and approved Zhou Yang's allocation choice.
Although he has a somewhat greedy personality, he is not the kind of person who is so greedy that he can't spare anything. After all, Zhou Yang has contributed. If he really doesn't give any of the six magical artifacts to him, the two of them will probably become enemies from now on.
.
If they were foundation-building monks from an ordinary family, they would be enemies. Chen Pingzhi relied on the Chen family, so he was not too afraid that the other party would seek revenge on the Qi-training monks under the Chen family because of such a trivial matter.
But Zhou Yang is different. If nothing happens to Zhou Yang in the future, it is certain that he will become a ninth-level foundation-building monk, and even opening up the Purple Mansion is not without hope.
For such a person with great potential, when he can choose to be friends, how stupid does Chen Pingzhi have to be to become enemies with him because of a magical weapon that he cannot use?
After he approved Zhou Yang's choice, he immediately raised his hand and took out a four-legged purple tripod that he had put away before and threw it to Zhou Yang: "Put this [Purple Gold Cauldron with Phoenix Pattern] away, little friend, and those jade slips,
You can also make a copy of it."
After saying this, he waved his sleeves and put all the scattered magic weapons and miscellaneous objects on the ground into his storage bag, leaving only twenty or thirty jade slips for Zhou Yang to copy.
Guessing that it would take Zhou Yang a lot of time to copy these jade slips, Chen Pingzhi simply meditated on the cold jade bed to recover the mana he had previously consumed.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't put it down and played with the third-order cauldron, then took out a blank jade slip and copied the information on the jade slip on the ground.
There are twenty or thirty jade slips on the ground. Because the owner of the cave is also a weapon refiner, seven or eight of them are related to the knowledge of weapon refinement, which can be said to be a huge gain for Zhou Yang.
In addition, the master of the cave was a very wealthy ninth-level monk. The exercises he practiced and the secrets he collected were also extraordinary. Among them, there was a book of exercises that could be practiced to the golden elixir stage.
, there are three books of exercises that can be practiced to the Zifu stage, and there is also a very rare secret technique of using spiritual consciousness.
But what excited and delighted Zhou Yang the most was a jade slip that recorded the method of refining puppet beasts. This jade slip contained twelve different types of puppet beast refining methods, including the lion obtained by Chen Pingzhi.
Tigers are two third-order puppet beasts.
He looked at the jade slip in his hand that recorded the puppet beast, and then at Chen Pingzhi who was meditating with his eyes closed on the cold jade bed to recover his magic power. He was secretly glad that this person had not carefully examined the jade slip before.
If Chen Pingzhi knew that these jade slips actually contained a rare method of refining puppet beasts, with his greedy personality, he would definitely not be allowed to copy it.
You must know that before Zhou Yang obtained this jade slip, no family in the entire Baisha River Oasis cultivation world had the inheritance of the Puppet Master.
On the contrary, because Huang Shamen destroyed a sect that was good at puppetry in the early years, he got a lot of inheritance of refining puppets. Some of the weapon refiners in the sect also practiced this inheritance and refined a lot of low-level puppets.
Specially sold to the major vassal families below.
It is said that the Chen family once purchased several third-level puppets from Huangshamen as a collection of family heritage. This must be the reason why Chen Pingzhi didn't think much about the puppet beast after seeing it in the cave.
After all, since the owner of the cave was able to obtain a third-level formation such as the "Earth-Covering Yellow Sand Formation" from the Master of the Huangshamen Formation during his lifetime, and then obtain two third-level puppet beasts to guard the cave, it did not seem to be a difficult task.
Chen Pingzhi, who was born in the Zifu family, never thought that a mere ninth-level monk could master the puppet master inheritance that the Chen family did not have.
This time, his arrogance is destined to give Zhou Yang and the Zhou family a big advantage.
Suppressing his excitement, Zhou Yang ignored the loss of his spiritual consciousness and first copied all the inheritance of the puppet technique and the inheritance of the weapon refining technique in order of importance and put them into his storage bag, and then started to copy those secret techniques.
By the time he had copied all the contents recorded in the jade slips, even though his spiritual consciousness was now as strong as that of a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk, he still had a splitting headache and had to immediately sit down and close his eyes to rest.
