"I wonder what you want to sell?" Behind the counter was an old man with white hair. He glanced at the visitor with cloudy eyes and asked straight to the point.
"Elixir."
Lu Zhong said solemnly, stretched out his hand and touched the storage bag, and fifteen rays of light flew out from the storage bag and fell on the counter of the buying house.
All of them are first- and second-level elixirs in bottles.
Considering the special nature of the Western Region, the sources of the elixirs he brought were very complex. They were purchased by the Chamber of Commerce from individual monks, and were not good products produced by alchemy workshops. The latter would obviously arouse suspicion.
Even so, the old man who saw these elixirs couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
As usual, he did not ask about the origin of the goods. He uncorked the bottle, picked up the ammunition and identified them one by one. He then said: "Fellow Taoist, these elixirs are all high quality and have not been corroded by the scarlet aura. I wonder how you plan to sell them? If you want to exchange them,
If you become a spiritual stone, I can buy it at the market price, or you can wait for us to hold an auction, so that you can get more spiritual stones, about 10% to 20% more."
As he spoke, he dipped his hands in water and wrote a number on the table, then quickly erased it.
Lu Zhong withdrew his gaze and thought to himself.
Eight times profit is enough!
Market price, there is no need to be greedy.
Otherwise, if someone is watching you, you will have to spend a lot of time.
So he said in a solemn voice: "Sell it directly, just for the amount you said, but... the bulk of it needs to be settled with high-grade spiritual stones. I don't think you can't satisfy such a request, right?"
The old man laughed dryly and said, "Fellow Taoist, we were joking, of course there is no problem."
He didn't let the elixir leave his sight.
He took out a bag of spiritual stones from the storage bag on his waist, counted three high-grade spiritual stones from it, and then counted eleven medium-grade spiritual stones before putting them together and pushing them to Lu Zhong.
"Fellow Taoist, take a look, is there something wrong with the spirit stone?"
"No problem!" Lu Zhong finished checking and put all the spirit stones into his bag.
The goods worth four thousand spirit stones were sold directly for thirty-one spirit stones.
Although it kills people slower than him, fortunately, you don't have to risk your life.
As for the trouble, it will be somewhat troublesome.
After leaving the acquisition bank, Lu Zhong did not expect that someone would follow him.
It can't be shaken off after three or four twists.
Storage bag +1
Following the same pattern, after a lot of effort, Lu Zhong changed his identity several times, wandered around various buying houses, and got rid of most of the spiritual things in his body.
After all, the total income is 100,000 spirit stones.
This does not include the storage bag.
Easier than robbing money!
…
Somewhere in the secret city.
Two figures came together.
"How is it? Have you found that person?"
"No? How is that possible!"
A jade-faced young man couldn't help but show an expression of surprise.
Opposite him was an old woman wearing a grimace mask, holding a compass in her hand. It was glowing with a weak opalescent light, and the pointer on the compass was spinning rapidly with no sign of stopping.
"I have lived for such a long time, and this is the first time I have seen such a situation!"
The compass in her hand is nothing ordinary.
It's called the "Person Tracing Tray", and as the name suggests, it's used to find people.
It is an imitation of the Lingbao "Heaven's Secret Disk". Although it is only a high-grade spiritual weapon, it has the ability to divine secrets. It can be used to find people in a small area and has never failed.
"There is only one explanation for this situation..."
"What explanation?" the jade-faced young man frowned.
"This person has a way to cover up the secret!"
"Grandma Qian, don't we have to use ordinary means to find that person?"
"That's all it can do." The old woman sighed.
Hearing this, the jade-faced young man frowned even deeper.
Recently, the Zhenyang Sect's attacks have become more frequent, and more and more injured limbs are being injured day by day. If the healing elixir can be bought from that person, then everyone's injuries can be recovered faster, instead of being consumed alive like this.
His trip was for this purpose.
"Let me think carefully, what will that person do next?" Shi Jingxuan stroked his forehead, forced himself to calm down, and began to think carefully.
In the dim firelight.
There are words faintly visible on his palm.
…
Leave the Secret City of Moshi.
Lu Zhong flew towards the west.
There is a small city there called "Jingfengfang City", which is also a gathering place for monks in Ye Lingyu. Judging from the memories of several demon cultivators, it seems that it is controlled by the righteous forces, which may allow him to reduce his income by a few dollars.
A storage bag.
But not long after flying out, he suddenly looked to the left.
Two small points of light appeared there.
Lu Zhong seemed to have thought of something, he frowned and stopped, and immediately fell directly to the ground, standing there quietly, waiting for the two small light spots to approach.
After a while, two green and red rays of light flew from a distance.
He arrived in front of Lu Zhong in the blink of an eye.
They landed one after another, and two monks in white came out of the road.
The leader was a female cultivator in yellow clothes. She looked very beautiful. She looked like a great beauty at first glance. Unfortunately, her eyes were too sinister, making her look more like a poisonous snake.
The other person was a fat man with a black face and a body like a watermelon, about one foot tall, carrying an exaggerated sledgehammer on his shoulder.
The two people chasing after them didn't look like good people at all.
Lu Zhong, who transformed into a Taoist, had a chill on his face and asked in a cold voice: "You two are following me, please give me a reason, otherwise I won't blame you for being rude!"
As he spoke, he also revealed a trace of his cultivation level.
It seems that the two of them were in the early stages of building a foundation and believed it to be true.
"Hmph, you're only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, but you dare to be so arrogant!" The black-faced fat man no longer held back his anger, his late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation was revealed, and there was already a hint of a sinister smile on his face.
Saying that, he was about to swing the sledgehammer and teach him a lesson.
Lu Zhong went through the whole show and immediately used the green-flaming Biyou firefork to confront the fat man with a dark face, looking like he was going to fight over a disagreement.
"Hold on, ask first and then talk!" The female cultivator in yellow beside her frowned and interrupted.
She took a deep look at Lu Zhong and said in a low voice: "This fellow Taoist, there is no need to be angry. Both of us are disciples of the Zhenyang Sect. We are here just to hunt down the guilty cultivators. We just received a tip that the guilty cultivators were guilty."
Come here, and it just so happens that Taoist friends appear here again. As we all know, those criminal cultivators are very crafty and are especially proficient in the art of disguise. Their crimes are unforgivable and no one can be spared. Please cooperate with me, Taoist friends."
After the female cultivator in yellow finished speaking, she stared at Lu Zhong.
This feeling really feels like being stared at by a poisonous snake.
"Do I have a choice?" Lu Zhong looked at the two people opposite and suddenly sneered.
After hearing this, the female cultivator in yellow and the fat man with black face both thought that he had given in. They felt relieved. Especially the fat man with black face, he took out a piece of talisman and came over.
"Forbidden Yuan Talisman? You really think highly of me!"
When Lu Zhong saw the talisman clearly, his murderous intention became even stronger.
The forbidden element talisman is a second-level talisman, produced only in China.
This talisman has the function of confining the true energy. It can not only be used to deal with foundation-building monks, but even if he is a monk who has formed an elixir, if this talisman is attached to his body, the movement of his true energy will be affected.
The situation then will be no different than fish on a chopping board.
You can only let others slaughter you!
It's a pity that these two people didn't guess it.
He is a monk in the alchemy stage.
With a raise of his left hand, a thunderbolt blasted out from the palm of his hand and shot straight towards the female cultivator in yellow who was full of guard. At the same time, he opened his mouth and directly released the Star Mirror. The mirror surface immediately gathered aura and shot out streaks of mirror light.
"No, it's pill formation!"
The female cultivator in yellow reacted very quickly. When she saw Lu Zhong taking action, she immediately shot out a magic talisman and turned it into a shield to protect herself, just in time to block the incoming thunder and lightning. At the same time, she shot out a red talisman with a snap of her finger.
Demon-killing Talisman!
He activated the Star Mirror to shoot out the mirror light, smashing the black-faced fat man's sledgehammer weapon into pieces in two or two blows. Lu Zhong turned around and saw the red talisman coming. He was not afraid at all, but he still pretended to have a solemn expression and raised his hand.
Heavy mirrors of light were condensed, trapping Hong Fu directly.
Immediately, the sword pointed a little, and the natal magic weapon shot out more mirror light, directly covering the fat man with a black face.
"No!" The fat black-faced man only had time to scream, before his body was pierced by rays of mirror light and turned into a puddle of rotten flesh on the ground.
Lu Zhong reached out and made a move, and the Star Mirror returned to his hand.
At this moment, he stared at the remaining female cultivator in yellow with cold eyes.
"Tell me, how did you discover me?"
Lu Zhong has been wondering why these two people are chasing him.
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility.
That means he was exposed in the Moshi Secret City!
The female cultivator in yellow couldn't help but feel horrified when she saw that the fat man with a dark face could die so easily at the hands of this Taoist.
This person is definitely not an ordinary pill-forming person!
When she heard what Lu Zhong said, she was confused for a while, then suddenly realized, and quickly replied: "I, I think this may be a misunderstanding!"
Seeing the doubtful look in Lu Zhong's eyes, the female cultivator in yellow explained:
"Senior, the two of us are really following the criminal cultivators. This junior can guarantee this with a poisonous oath! Those two are the key criminals that the Zhenyang Sect has been hunting for for a long time. They specifically haunt various cities to purchase supplies for the criminal cultivators."
Afraid that he wouldn't believe it, he created a water mirror technique.
Looking at the two people in the mirror, Lu Zhong immediately believed it.
"It seems there is really a misunderstanding."
"Yes, yes, senior, what do you think?" The female cultivator in yellow felt relieved and secretly thought that she could finally escape. At this moment, she saw Lu Zhong slowly raising his hand and looking at her with a sarcastic expression.
A cold light flashed in Lu Zhong's eyes, he had no intention of letting this woman go.
Activating the Star Mirror, he easily broke through the protective shield of the female cultivator in yellow and shot her into a pile of rotten flesh.
Receive the two people's storage bags and the Demon-Slaying Talisman.
After collecting the things, Lu Zhong stretched out his hand, and a residual soul appeared.
It's the female practitioner in yellow.
He made a hand and chanted a mantra, and began to search for this woman's soul.
As the female cultivator in yellow said before, the two of them were indeed following sin cultivators. Maybe they were used to being arrogant. When they saw Lu Zhong alone, their cultivation was not as good as theirs.
Then the thought of robbing money came up.
Unexpectedly, it hit an iron plate.
Lu Zhong really didn't know what to say about this result.
"It's good that it's not exposed."
After getting the answer, he removed the soul-searching technique.
"Those two who are hiding underground, shouldn't it be time for you to show up?" Lu Zhong looked at the hillside on the right at this time and said with a blank expression.
For a long time, no one responded.
"It seems that I have to ask you to come out!" Seeing this, Lu Zhong's face darkened, and he stretched out his hand to release the Star Mirror. The mirror immediately condensed with light and blasted towards somewhere on the left front hillside.
"Senior, wait a minute, junior will come out right now." A male voice sounded.
Immediately, two figures emerged from the ground.
Shi Jingxuan and Granny Qian looked at each other and wondered why they were so unlucky.
First, his traces were accidentally discovered, and he managed to escape from the Moshi Secret City, but his hiding place was discovered by this Dan-Jie senior.
This person is a ruthless person who doesn't like to ask questions and relies on searching for souls to get information.
Master Jingxuan secretly took a look at Lu Zhong and saw that he did not continue to activate the magic weapon. He felt relieved and said, "I don't know your surname, senior. I'm Master Ye Ling, thank you very much for your help, senior!"
"Huanyin Palace Qian Shishi, thank you senior for saving me!" The old woman next to her also saluted and thanked him.
"I'm just a nameless casual cultivator, so I won't tell you my identity. You two must be criminal cultivators, right? I want to know why the Zhenyang Sect is chasing you!" Lu Zhong asked the question that interested him.
"This..." Shi Jingxuan hesitated and replied.
"Senior, what I don't know is that the name of this sin cultivator is the lackey of Zhenyang. He has planted a stigma for us. If we want to say 'sin', he caused the changes in the world in the Western Region. He is the real sin cultivator who has taken refuge in the Zhenyang Sect of the Demon Sect in the Middle Earth."
.”
"Why did you say that?" Lu Zhong felt that things were getting more interesting.
Why is the Western Region in the classics completely different from the reality?
Middle-earth has always been a forbidden place for demonic cultivators. Every sect can date back to the time when the immortals preached, but this monk named Shi Jingxuan said that there is a demonic sect there?
Lu Zhong was a little surprised when the other party said these words.
On the other side, Shi Jing saw that Lu Zhong didn't seem to have any malicious intentions, so he explained: "This matter is a long story, and the juniors only know the general idea. Only the elders of the division know the specific inside story. As far as I know..."
It all starts with the Scarlet Devil.
The origin of this place is unknown. It will erupt once every hundred years, spewing out a large amount of scarlet spiritual energy, which will have a major impact on the entire Western Territory. Therefore, the sects of the Western Territory have jointly set up a seal and sent people to take turns to guard it to prevent accidents.
the appearance of.
The customs in the Western Region are extremely fierce, and in order to compete for resources, various sects have always fought over disagreements.
But there is one exception, that is, the sects stationed at the seal will not provoke disputes for a hundred years, so that they can concentrate on guarding the seal and avoid accidents in the Scarlet Devil Land, which will bring harm to the entire Western Territory.
More than a hundred years ago, it was the Zhenyang Sect's turn to take charge.
Trouble arises from this.
"I don't know what Zhen Yangzong did, but the originally peaceful Scarlet Demon Land erupted!" When Shi Jingxuan said this, he looked relieved, as if he had recalled some terrible memories.
In an instant, the sky turned from blue to blood red.
Affected by the scarlet aura, all mortals without the protection of the formation suffered. Except for those who were rescued, the rest had their minds corroded and turned into monsters that only knew how to devour flesh and blood.
Affected by this, all life in the Western Region was in ruins.
For a while, the sky was filled with ashes.
Shi Jingxuan wiped away the tears that he couldn't help but continued: "With such a big change, more than hundreds of millions of lives have died. Naturally, the Supreme Elder and the others cannot ignore it. The juniors originally thought that the Nascent Soul Lord was here to take action.
The outbreak of the Scarlet Demon Land was quickly calmed down, but I didn’t expect... this was actually the beginning of a nightmare!"
None of the Nascent Soul Lords who went to the Scarlet Devil Land came back.
When all the dragons were leaderless, the Zhenyang Sect suddenly took over the Xianlao Pass. Then, relying on the advantage of having a Three Yuan Ying sect, they crazily planted accusations against other sects. Taking this as a righteous cause, they began to unite with the angry monks to attack the Western Territory.
Sects were slaughtered one by one, even those mortals who had no ability to resist were not spared.
Since then, there have been no mortal cities in the Western Region.
When Lu Zhong heard this, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
Everything that Master Jingxuan said was completely different from what he heard from Yan Zhen.
