Zhou Youcai is a talkative person, and his annoying level is almost as annoying as that of Ming Yu.
But the only attractive thing about him is that he is rich.
At this moment, Li Ping'an and Monk Changqing were lying in a luxurious pavilion in the back garden of Zhou's house.
Dotted with rocks, the courtyard is magnificent.
It is graceful and luxurious, quite a bit like a royal palace.
The most amazing thing is the coral tree that is more than nine feet high on the side, like a canopy, it is really a wonder.
The branches are covered with copper bells.
When the breeze blows, it plays "ding ding dong dong", which is very pleasant to the ear.
Li Ping'an lay on a rocking chair and picked a crystal clear grape and put it in his mouth.
Listening to the sweet music, the breeze caressing my cheeks, I felt very comfortable.
It’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed a leisurely and prosperous life.
After eating and drinking, drink a pot of fragrant tea.
It is also one of the joys of life.
Zhou Youcai squatted aside, "Brother, are you satisfied with this arrangement? Do you need me to call a few more little sisters for you?"
Changqing suddenly opened her eyes.
Li Ping'an said: "Sister, there is no need."
Monk Changqing closed his eyes again.
Zhou Youcai said: "Brother, let's wait a few more days and we can set off after everything is ready."
"Sorry, Brother Zhou."
"Hey! Brother, you are treating me like an outsider by saying this.
By the way, brother, you really came all the way from Sui Dynasty.
Of course, it’s not that I don’t believe my brothers, it’s just that the mountains and rivers are high and the rivers are too high to get here from Sui Dynasty..."
Li Ping'an said: "As the saying goes, if you don't climb the mountain, you don't know how high the sky is.
If you are not near a deep stream, you will not know how thick the land is.
All the hard work along the way is worth it.”
Zhou Youcai's eyes shone, "That's great, it's so touching.
Brother Li, I really regret not getting to know you earlier!!"
Zhou Youcai quickly shouted to his servants: "Bi Bi! Get the pen quickly!"
Zhou Youcai wrote vigorously, "Write it down, write it down, this sentence must be written down.
If you don't climb a mountain, you don't know how high the sky is.
If you are not near a deep stream, you will not know how thick the land is..."
Li Pingan shook his head and couldn't help but smile.
"Master, Master! This is today's spiritual stone."
At this time, a servant came over holding a plate.
"I know, let's put it there." Zhou Youcai said casually.
Spiritual stone?
Li Ping'an was a little curious. He had only heard that spirit stones were a currency circulated among monks before.
I just don't know much about the specifics.
Zhou Youcai picked up a spiritual stone.
The spiritual stone is crystal clear and shining.
Hold it in the palm of your hand, open your mouth and inhale.
Suddenly, a spiritual aura penetrated into his body from the spiritual stone.
After a while, the spirit stone gradually lost its color and eventually became dull.
Just like an ordinary stone.
Phew~
Zhou Youcai let out a breath.
Li Ping'an asked curiously: "Brother Zhou, what are you doing?"
Zhou Youcai said: "I have been sick since I was a child and my foundation was broken. I can only maintain my life with this spiritual stone every day."
Li Pingan was thoughtful.
Zhou Youcai noticed his curiosity, "Brother Li has never seen this thing before."
Although spiritual stones are not a rare thing among cultivators, ordinary people may never see such a thing in their lifetime.
"May I take a look at it?"
"nature."
As soon as Li Pingan's palm touched the blue stone, he immediately felt a warm feeling.
In his perception, this spiritual stone exuded a special luster, and there was a mysterious power flowing faintly.
As soon as my mind moved, there was a faint energy fluctuation.
In just the blink of an eye, a spiritual stone had been absorbed by him.
Um?
Li Ping'an only felt a weak energy quickly seep into his body.
Wander around in a circle and then become part of your body's strength.
this.....
"I can't tell that Brother Li is also a monk." Zhou Youcai said in surprise.
Li Ping'an shook his head, "No."
"Brother Li, how can you absorb this spiritual stone if you are not a monk?"
Li Ping'an was quite puzzled, "I don't know what's going on, just a thought in my mind.
The energy of this spiritual stone has been transferred to me, I hope Brother Zhou won't be surprised."
Zhou Youcai waved his hand, "You and I won't talk about this. If Brother Li likes it, I'll just give Brother Li some."
Li Ping'an didn't know whether the other party was being polite or sincere.
It's just that he is a little curious.
"If Brother Zhou doesn't mind, you can lend me some and I will pay them back in the future."
"It's a small thing, a small thing."
Zhou Youcai was generous and directly gave Li Pingan a bag of spiritual stones.
And looking at the plain colors, they are extremely expensive.
Zhou Youcai is also a low-level young Qi practitioner.
According to his introduction, spiritual stones not only function as currency, but also have the effect of entraining qi and maintaining health.
Spirit stones can provide monks with the spiritual energy they contain.
But it cannot directly enhance the monk's strength.
Its function is equivalent to the blood bottle in the game.
When monks fight, practice, or do other things, they will consume spiritual energy.
The spiritual stones can replenish spiritual energy.
However, Li Ping'an absorbed the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone and could directly convert it into power.
It seems to be...absorbed by the Niwan point in the Six Secrets of the Human Body.
He had absorbed it too quickly just now, and Li Ping'an wasn't sure.
That’s why I borrowed a bag of spiritual stones from Zhou Youcai
At this moment, all the spirit stones were poured out.
Holding it in the palm of your hand, you quickly found a way to absorb it.
In less than half a cup of tea, a bag of spiritual stones was completely absorbed by him.
That power was indeed absorbed into the Niwan.
Not only does it moisturize the clay pills, it also seems to have a great effect on impacting other five secrets.
Li Pingan picked up a spiritual stone that had turned into a stone.
It's a good thing, but it's a pity that I don't have it.
This bag of spiritual stones was borrowed from Zhou Youcai, and I would pay it back if I borrowed it.
What's more, this bag of spiritual stones is worth a lot of money.
Although Zhou Youcai was not short of money, the two had only known each other for two days.
Even if we have known each other for a long time, there is no reason to take things from others for nothing.
It may seem like a small thing, but it adds up...
Li Ping'an put the spirit stone, which was no different from a stone, back into his pocket.
If a practitioner wants to achieve success, both the "Dharma and Wealth Couple" are indispensable.
Now it seems that what he said was true.
Just because you are extremely poor now does not mean you will be extremely poor in the future.
Three thousand years to the east of the river, three thousand years to the west of the river.
Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry~
Li Ping'an couldn't get used to sleeping on the soft silk pillow.
I'm still used to sleeping with my old cow on my pillow.
Lao Niu stretched out one leg as usual for Li Ping'an to lean on.
...........
The next day, we had breakfast.
Zhou Youcai was going to take Li Pingan and Changqing to see the big ship.
Just when I went out, I met a purple-faced man.
"Excuse me, who is Mr. Zhou?"
"Is it you?"
The purple-faced man cupped his hands and said, "It turns out we are two brothers."
Three months ago, Li Ping'an and Chang Qing met this purple-faced man at an inn.
I even treated him to a meal at that time.
Then the purple-faced man killed the arrogant monk named Li Zi'ao and left.
Unexpectedly, I met you here today.
"Who is Mr. Zhou?"
"I am."
The chubby Zhou Youcai stood up, and the man looked a bit scary.
"You...who are you?"
"I heard that Young Master Zhou is looking for someone to go to Yunzhou together. I happen to be going to Yunzhou as well, and I am willing to protect Young Master Zhou personally."
Zhou Youcai sniffed and hid behind Li Pingan.
"Brother Li is here to protect me. I don't need your protection. Besides, my partner has been found. Please come back."
Zhou Youcai didn't think this purple-faced man knew anything.
Does he understand the true meaning of adventure? Can he recite poetry correctly...
In short, this product is definitely not as good as Brother Li.
The purple-faced man stood motionless, scratched his head, and then looked at Li Ping'an.
Li Ping'an deliberately didn't speak.
The purple-faced man cupped his hands and said, "I hope my brother can intercede for me."
Li Ping'an then said: "Brother Zhou, this brother and I are fairly acquainted.
Why not, for my sake, let him go with us, so that we can have someone to take care of us along the way."
Zhou Youcai nodded, "Since Brother Li said so, that's fine."
The purple-faced man said: "Thank you very much, brother. I'm Wen Tao.
Including the favor of treating me to dinner before, I already owe Xiongtai two favors, and I will definitely repay them in the future."
"Then why not add it to the next one."
At this time, another person walked over.
"Isn't this a coincidence? Everyone has met her at an inn."
The visitor was none other than Zhang Song, a swordsman who had been baptized by the nectar of Li Ping'an, Chang Qing and Lao Niu at Shiwanda Mountain.
Facing the powerful enemy Li Zi'ao, he shouted without hesitation, "Get out!"
"It turns out to be Congxin Swordsman." Li Ping'an said.
Zhang Song was stunned, "Swordsman from the Heart"?
What a strange name this is, but it doesn't matter.
Zhang Song said confidently: "You can rest assured that I will protect you. Count me in."
Li Pingan smiled slightly.
I hope this trip will not be too lonely, and it will be lively~
