Chapter 67 Don’t carry heavy loads, move forward lightly
Considering his upcoming trip, Meng Zhou went out to the market again.
Meng Zhou went to Wu Tong, took out three first-class medium-grade magic weapons, and asked, "Can you help me deal with these?"
These three first-level middle-grade magic weapons are each a shield-shaped defensive magic weapon obtained from comprehensive, plus a robe with damage on the chest and a pair of magic boots.
Needless to say, the defensive magic weapon and the damaged robe were useless to him now, and the latter was even worse than useless to him.
Among them, the most valuable magic boots can make the user's speed lighter, ghostly and silent.
But for Meng Zhou, it is not practical at all, and will conflict with the various perfect martial arts he has mastered.
If you keep it on your hands, you can only put it in the storage bag to eat dust, so you might as well take the opportunity to clean it up together.
Wu Tong looked down at the three magic weapons, his eyes focused on the damaged magic robe near his heart for a moment.
He pursed his lips and suppressed the curiosity in his heart.
After a while, he said:
“It can be handled, but the price may not satisfy you.
Especially this robe, although it is not badly damaged, its location is so critical that even repairing it is not easy, so it is difficult to sell it at a good price."
Meng Zhou said: "It's okay. As long as you do your best and sell more or less, I can accept it."
Wu Tong nodded, but suddenly his heart moved and he asked:
"Senior, do you still need wood spiritual materials?"
Meng Zhou nodded: "Need it."
"What do you think about using these three magic weapons to directly exchange for wood spiritual materials?"
Meng Zhou said: "Of course it's no problem."
After receiving his answer, Wu Tong looked much more excited and said happily:
"In this case, I can dispose of it quickly for you, and I won't lose too much on the price."
According to him, if it were to be sold directly as spiritual stones, the shield-shaped defensive weapon would be too common, so he would sell it for at most 85% of the market price.
The rarer magic boots can be sold for at most 90% of the market price. As for the damaged robes, it goes without saying that it is not easy to sell them for 40 to 50% of the market price.
And if he is willing to barter and exchange magic weapons for spiritual materials, he can basically avoid losing money.
Wu Tong took him to find a monk who was in his early forties and had a seventh level of Qi training.
When the other party saw Wu Tong coming to the door, he looked rather contemptuous.
It wasn't until he saw Meng Zhou next to him who he couldn't see clearly that he calmed down a little and introduced the two of them into the house.
And when Wu Tong placed the three magical instruments handed over to him by Meng Zhou on the table, the middle-aged monk's attitude changed again.
From the change in his expression, Meng Zhou could probably tell that he was most interested in the pair of magic boots.
But the damaged robe made his attitude become more kind.
During the negotiation with Wu Tong, the scene was also very harmonious. From the beginning to the end, the other party did not act in an overbearing manner.
In the end, the opponent used Jiufen first-grade mid-grade red pine wood to win these three magic weapons. Among them, a pair of magic boots was exchanged for five shares, accounting for more than half of the value. The remaining two magic weapons were exchanged for four shares in total.
.
Not bothering the two masters, while completing the transaction, Meng Zhou exchanged a thousand low-grade spiritual stones for two pieces of first-grade high-grade red pine wood from him.
Red pine is a kind of spiritual wood produced in Hongsong Ridge.
On the way here, Wu Tong gave a vague introduction to the identity of the middle-aged monk. Meng Zhou understood that this guy had also formed a team to go to Hongsong Ridge to make money, and he was the organizer.
However, he was lucky and escaped the murder.
When he realized the danger, he decisively stopped the activity. Even the raw materials obtained from Hongsong Ridge were not easily disposed of, and he had a backlog of them for a while. The situation was similar to that of Wu Tong who had hoarded a large number of talisman materials that day.
Seeing Meng Zhou take out a genuine thousand low-grade spiritual stones, the smile on his face was as sincere as possible.
After leaving this person's residence, Meng Zhou ordered 140 low-grade spiritual stones and handed them to Wu Tong.
Wu Tong repeatedly refused and expressed too much, but Meng Zhou still forced it into his hands.
Finally, he patted him on the shoulder and warned, "From now on, you can practice peacefully in Nuanyun Valley."
After saying that, Meng Zhou turned and left.
It wasn't until Meng Zhou disappeared for a long time that Wu Tong, who was standing there in a daze, walked back in a daze.
He has realized that he will probably never see that mysterious senior again.
After bidding farewell to Wu Tong, Meng Zhou went to visit various rice shops.
When he left the market, he added two hundred kilograms of high-grade spiritual rice, five hundred kilograms of medium-grade spiritual rice, and one kilogram of high-grade spiritual tea to his storage bag. They each cost one hundred lower-grade spiritual stones, and the total cost was
three hundred.
"Such a reserve of spiritual rice is enough for my needs for a long time."
"I have prepared eighteen copies of the first-level and medium-level wood spiritual materials, and four copies of the first-level and high-level spiritual materials.
Even if Bai Ya's appetite increases the next time she wakes up from hunger, she should still be able to eat enough."
…
After returning to the stone room of Zuowang Pavilion, Meng Zhou took stock of his current net worth.
There are 12 medium-grade spiritual stones and 1,600 low-grade spiritual stones.
Two storage bags.
One of them was obtained from "Hu Gui". The internal space is like a secret room, with a length, width and height of more than three meters and thirty square meters.
It was now filled with various items, and the spiritual materials prepared for Bai Ya and the food prepared for himself took up a large area.
One is obtained from the Talisman Maker Zhou Quan, and has about three dimensions of space inside.
There are many personal belongings inside, including clothes, shoes and socks. Although they are of ordinary quality, they are not considered magic weapons.
But in the mortal world, they are all the best things.
Then there is a top-quality magic sword.
A first-level high-grade spirit gathering array disk.
There are two first-class flying swords, one from Mr. Mo and one from "Hu Gui".
A first-grade high-grade robe.
A first-level mid-grade talisman pen.
There are also a large number of high-quality talismans as well as three to four hundred copies of first-level low-grade, medium-grade, and high-grade talismans left.
They all collided into the two spirit-sealing boxes, almost filling the two spirit-sealing boxes.
Two days later, Meng Zhou stepped out of the stone room again and walked out of the Zuowang Pavilion.
On the way, when he met the employees of Zuowanguan, they all saluted him respectfully, and Meng Zhou also responded politely.
Although he has been in seclusion here for a long time, he often goes out. Everyone is accustomed to this and does not think it is a bit strange.
After leaving the Zuowang Pavilion, he passed through a dense forest. When he reappeared, his figure and appearance had changed into another shape, and his first-grade top-grade robe had also changed into another style.
No one would ever associate him like this with "Pharmacist Zhou".
Meng Zhou did not specifically say goodbye to Chu Zheng and Yu Peng. When passing above a crack in the ground with hot magma surging underneath, Meng Zhou threw two cards into it.
As for when Zai Wang Guan would forcefully break in and take back the clean and empty stone room, that was not a problem he should worry about.
The moment before he threw them out, Meng Zhou suddenly felt hesitant in his heart.
"It's just two cards, and it doesn't take up much space in the storage bag.
Even if you never come back to Zuowang Hall again, it’s still good to keep it as a souvenir.”
From a certain perspective, these two cards represent my experience of sitting in Nuanyun Valley, which is part of my complete spiritual life.
Just like people habitually leave some memorable photos and videos at important nodes in their lives, or every once in a while, so as to connect the past and eventually connect them into a complete life.
Meng Zhouyi didn't think there was anything wrong with this idea at first, but as soon as he thought about it, he thought about the completely different lengths of life between cultivators and ordinary people.
If every experience had to leave some memories, it would seem to be nothing in the short term. But when he thought that there would be such a line connecting the past and the future, he suddenly felt an inexplicable depression and heaviness.
Those fluttering souvenirs eventually formed an image like iron chains and shackles, wrapped around his legs.
So, he decisively threw away these two flimsy cards.
"What do you want to commemorate?"
"The future is so long and the road to go is so long. Traveling lightly and moving forward with ease is more important than anything else."
