"What explanation do you want?" Mao Qi asked calmly.
"It's very simple. Pay the military-level room price, but you can only stay in ordinary rooms that match your status." The visitor said in an unquestionable tone.
"You can definitely make the decision." Mao Qigeng immediately questioned. The angry visitor ran away angrily.
"I am the owner of our store, Sun Youzai. I can tell you responsibly that if you can light up the five rays, I will keep my promise; if you cannot, I will make you pay the same price."
Sun Youzai suppressed the anger in his heart and said. The reason why Sun Youzai is so confident is that the light that lights up the stone pillar requires at least five levels of strength. Each additional level in the future can light up one more light.
If you want to light up five rays of light, you need at least the peak of Jin Realm. And he is sure that Mao Qi's realm is only the third level of Jin Realm, which means that he is not even qualified to light up the light.
After Sun Youzai revealed his identity, Mao Qi pulled out a strange smile, and then calmly came to the stone pillar, quickly mobilized all the energy from Qi Hai and Baihui's two dantians, running the pulse pool at the same time, and then gently moved his palm
was placed on the stone pillar.
Seeing Mao Qi walking like running water, taking his time, Sun Youzai felt a little uneasy. He even thought that Mao Qi was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. After waiting anxiously for a moment, when he saw that the stone pillar did not light up, Sun Youzai secretly relaxed.
tone.
When the waiter saw this, he screamed: "It's not bright. I just said that garbage like you are not qualified. Hand over the spirit crystal to avoid having your legs and feet broken."
In a moment of excitement, the waiter made a surprising statement. It seemed that he had done this kind of deceptive thing frequently.
But before the excitement faded, there was a crisp sound, and the stone pillar suddenly shattered. The waiter's expression also solidified as the stone pillar shattered.
Sun Youzai stared blankly at the gravel on the ground, his heart filled with shock and regret. To be able to shatter stone pillars, one must be at least the third level of the Tao Realm, and the young man in front of him was clearly at the third level of the Jin Realm, which was a whole different level.
Although Sun Youzai was curious about the reason, he didn't dare to ask.
When he looked at Mao Qi again, the confidence in his eyes had faded and was replaced by politeness and respect.
Seeing the dull expressions of Sun Youzai and the waiter, Maosi felt particularly comfortable. He never dreamed or expected that when he entered Taoshan Village again, the situation would be similar to that of the first time, but the results would be completely different.
Mao Qi politely apologized to Sun Youzai, then paid three thousand spirit crystals generously, and settled into an ordinary guest room with satisfaction. The waiter unconditionally added an extra bed as Mao Si requested.
Although it was just an ordinary guest room, it was not much better than the luxurious rooms in Mang Ancient City. Maosi looked at the clean, tidy and elegant furnishings in the room and felt very satisfied.
"The conditions are good, but three thousand spiritual crystals per day is too much. With our current financial situation, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long. It seems we have to hurry up and find a long-term solution." Mao Qi said while lying comfortably on the bed.
.
"Brother is right!" No matter how dirty and smelly he was, Mao Si sat down on the chair and said lazily: "Then what should we do next?"
"There's no rush, you can ask around slowly!" Mao Qi said.
The two rested for a while, took a shower, went for a walk outside, spent nearly a thousand spirit crystals on a feast, and also inquired about ways to improve their honor level.
There are two martial arts sects within the area of Taoshan Village, namely the Boxing Sect and the Mechanical Sect, and there are four-level martial arts training halls under the sects: soldiers, farmers, scholars, and Confucianism. The taxes paid by these martial arts training centers support the expenses of Taoshan Village.
Anyone who enters Taoshan Village and wants to join the martial arts hall needs to complete the tasks assigned by the martial arts hall or directly hand over one million spiritual crystals. If one of the above two conditions is met, he can enter the Confucian-level martial arts hall; after entering the hall,
, you can obtain the qualifications to learn martial arts, and you can also accept tasks. Each task will be given a certain amount of honor points according to the difficulty. The honor points will increase the honor level. When the honor points reach the sergeant level, you can be promoted after passing the assessment.
Go to the Military Martial Arts Hall, and from here on up, the military level is the highest. The Tianyu is the core of Taoshan Village, and it is difficult for outsiders to enter.
After careful deliberation, Mao Qi and the two decided to choose the boxing sect; as for how to meet the conditions for entry, they can only take a long-term approach.
The next day, Mao Qi and the two left the inn early and started looking for martial arts gyms. There were so many martial arts gyms in Taoshan Village, there were no less than ten at a glance, but there were so many that they didn't know how to choose.
"Brother, there are so many martial arts gyms, how do we choose?"
"Let's take a look and talk. Although there are many martial arts gyms, there are long queues in front of each one. It's not certain who to choose." Mao Qi said with a headache.
The headache is a headache, but Mao Qi is not in a hurry. Anyway, there are hundreds of thousands of spiritual crystals in his pocket. Moreover, Mao Qi and the two of them also know very well that with their current realm and strength, there is almost nothing useful they can learn in a Confucian-level martial arts gym.
In other words, the Confucian-level martial arts hall is just a springboard. If you want to learn something useful, you must at least enter the rank of sergeant. However, the two of them are still far away from the rank-and-file martial arts hall.
"Brother, there seems to be no one queuing up at the restaurant in front of you, why don't you go and take a look." Mao Si pointed to a martial arts gym not far away.
Mao Qi nodded and quickly arrived at the martial arts gym called "Blast Gate". Although there was no queue, the blast gate was still clean and all the furnishings were neatly arranged. A rather old man was sitting there.
Sitting on the chair, reading a book leisurely, seemingly not caring at all about recruiting disciples.
"Hello, uncle! We would like to ask about your sect's recruitment requirements!" Mao Qi bowed first and then said in a medium voice.
"Since you want to get started, then come in!" The old man said without raising his head, still concentrating on the books in his hands.
Mao Qi didn't care about the old man's lukewarm attitude, and took Mao Si into the courtyard.
Seeing the two men handing over their identity jade tokens, the old man raised his head and looked at Mao Qi and the other two, then focused his eyes on the book in his hand, and said with as much care as gold: "If you want to get in, each person must hand in thirty jade tokens."
Fourth level beast soul bead." After saying that, he fell silent and stopped talking.
Hearing that the other party actually asked for thirty fourth-level beast soul beads, Mao Qi was a little surprised. Compared with other sects, the recruitment requirements seemed a bit high. At this time, the combined assets of Mao Qi and two people were not enough for the entry fee for one person.
.
I wanted to learn something about the sect here, but I didn't expect that the sect in Taoshan Village was still very impressive even though it was a small group of people. Although he was heartbroken after being rejected, Mao Qi didn't show it on his face. He bowed to the old man again and then withdrew.
go out.
"Brother, what kind of attitude is this? This old man is too arrogant," Mao Si couldn't hold back the dissatisfaction in his heart and said as soon as he left the yard.
Thirty fourth-level beast soul beads are not a small amount for Mao Qi and the two of them, and the Gale Wind Sect is not necessarily the last choice for Mao Qi and the others. If they choose another sect, thirty beast soul beads are probably not enough.
.
"It's quite troublesome." Mao Qi said solemnly.
"It would have been better if I had collected some beast soul beads." Mao Si felt worried when he thought of thirty beast soul beads. He couldn't help but recall the scene when he killed a group of beasts, and couldn't help blurting out.
"I was in a state of chaos at that time. I didn't even know what was going on, so I still had the time to collect information." Mentioning that day, Mao Qi still felt a little scared. Because even though it has become a thing of the past, every time he thinks about it, he still feels because of what happened at that time.
Greed leads to fear.
"If it doesn't work, try another one! Instead of spending your time on things you can't do, it's better to spend your time waiting in line." Maosi suggested.
"Hey! There is no turning back. Look at your jade sign." Mao Qi sighed.
Maosi quickly took out the jade token given to him by Sun Taoji when he entered Taoshan Village. He took a closer look and saw a line of small words appearing on the jade token at some point. It said the entry task of the Gale Wind Sect, hand in thirty fourth-level beasts.
Soul Pearl.
"Brother, what's going on? When was this word printed?" Mao Si asked in surprise with his big eyes wide open.
"I didn't pay attention either. It was probably printed by the old man from the Gale Wind Sect when he checked our jade plaque. But with his skills, I think I can give the Gale Wind Sect a try." Mao Qi said thoughtfully.
"It seems that I have to stay in the mountains for a while again. But this time I have to be well prepared. Otherwise, it will be really difficult to live a life of tasteless food and sleepless nights." Maosi said with a bitter look on his face.
In order to raise sixty beast soul beads at once, Mao Qi and the others prepared enough field supplies for two months, then inquired about the location of the hunting spirit beasts, and went straight away.
Along the way, we met many people hunting, either in groups or alone, and without exception, they all cast curious glances at Mao Qi and the two men, who were covered in bags and bags.
Some good people even asked: "Hey! Looking at you, you don't want to live in the deep forest forever!"
"Did you feel that the task was too difficult and you were afraid that you would not be able to complete it, so you decided to spend your life in the forest?"
"If you can't bear the hardship, just give up. If you don't catch the spiritual beast by then, you will lose your life. It's not worth it at such a young age."
For the boring words, Mao Qi and the other two simply ignored them. The mission of those good people was only seven or eight fourth-level beast soul beads at most. If Mao Qi told them about the mission they received, I don’t know if they would still dare to laugh at it. However,
Mao Qi also felt that the way he looked now did not look like he was going hunting, but like he was going for an outing.
As we went deeper and deeper into the forest, the team became smaller and smaller, and the noise became less and less. In the end, only Mao Qi and the two were left.
"Are those two people crazy? If we go further inside, there may be spiritual beasts of level five or above." Looking at the two Maoqi who were still going deeper, the team who finally separated from them exclaimed.
"What two fools!" One of the people who had laughed at them said even though he was shocked, he still said reluctantly.
"It's better to take care of yourself! They themselves know whether they are fools or not. You don't need to comment." A leader in the team shouted softly. As the captain, he naturally has to think more.
"Brother, it's getting dark today, do we still want to go?" Mao Si looked up at the sky and said.
"The fog around the front is too thick and too humid. It is probably a swamp. It is not suitable for spending the night. Let's go further in!" In order to complete the task as soon as possible, and at the same time to test his current strength, Mao Qi prepared to take the risk to challenge the fifth-level spirit beast.
.And if you want to spend the night safely in the mountains and forests, the swamp is not a good choice.
Mao Qi and the others speeded up and walked around the swamp for a while, finally finding a satisfactory place to settle down in the faint moonlight.
Putting down all the things, Maosi rubbed his somewhat numb shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he thought of the mission of sixty beast soul beads, and felt worried again.
"Brother, there are a lot of people entering the mountain. There must be too many monks and too few rice porridge. I don't know how long it will take to complete the sixty beast soul beads." Mao Si said irritably.
"Take your time, if it doesn't work, just go deeper. But there are already fifth-level spiritual beasts here. Their intelligence is close to that of humans. They are strong and difficult to deal with. Hunters shouldn't be able to deal with them.
Too many." Mao Qi comforted and lit the fire.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mao Qi felt a vague aura approaching not far away. He suddenly became alert and his spiritual consciousness expanded instantly.
A spiritual beast that dares to actively take humans as prey is certainly not weak.
"Fourth brother, be careful!" Mao Qi lowered his voice.
Mao Qi quickly circulated his Dantian, and the realm energy was ready to go; the pulse pool was undercurrent, the heaven and earth spirit condensation was quietly opened, and the fine steel dagger was already in hand. He said slightly nervously: "It seems that there are many monks, and there is also a lot of porridge."
Soon, a cold breath came from behind. Mao Qi rolled on the spot and shouted loudly: "Fourth brother, be careful!" Before he could stand firm, a black shadow came one after another, and Mao Qi grabbed a stick.
Branches and arms were thrown towards the black shadow, while the body rolled sideways again.
The black shadow nimbly dodged the flying branches, and because it was too fast, it dodged past a tree.
Mao Qi took the opportunity to stand up. His figure moved and instantly turned into countless phantoms, waiting for the black shadow to attack again.
A moment later, the tree that the black shadow passed by suddenly fell to the ground.
Mao Si stared blankly at everything that happened between the flashes of light and flint, and said in his heart: "What the hell is this? It's so fast!"
Just when the big tree fell, the black shadow struck again, but the target became Mao Si. Mao Qi smiled slightly, and the energy in his body surged, raising the spirit of heaven and earth to the extreme. Countless phantoms suddenly appeared at the moment when the black shadow approached.
, surrounded it, and cold light suddenly danced.
Chichi! After a neighing sound, the speed of the black shadow became much faster again. In a moment, most of the phantoms were dispersed before they could attack it, and the black shadow also took the opportunity to rush out.
Mao Qi was shocked in his heart: "What kind of monster is this? It can actually hide from the phantom that shakes the Holy Fist of Heaven." During the two confrontations, Mao Qi didn't see clearly what kind of monster the other party was. Even now, he still doesn't know what kind of spirit he is fighting.
The beasts were fighting. If it hadn't been for the neighing just now, I might not have been able to tell whether the attacker was a human or a beast.
Maosi was completely stunned. He only felt the wind just now and didn't even see the afterimage. The scene in front of him told him that there must have been a collision just now. He had no way to intervene in such a battle.
In order to find out the details of his opponent, Mao Qi concentrated his scattered spiritual consciousness and locked onto the black shadow directly. Suddenly, a spiritual beast surrounded by thick wind spirits and floating in the air appeared in Mao Qi's spiritual consciousness.
"I didn't expect that this kind of spiritual beast could have such abilities and be able to attract wind spirits. But when it met me, there was only one result."??
