"You three just take a bath here, don't run around!"
After Sun Mo warned Xuanyuan Po, he led the way to the good place she mentioned.
The aura dragon coiled up in a circle and lay on Lu Zhiruo's head. In fact, it was guiding the way. However, Sun Mo observed for a long time and couldn't find how it communicated with Papaya Girl.
"Maybe it's an alien language!"
Sun Mo's knowledge of beast control was at a master level, but he couldn't cope with this situation at all.
"She seems to have a special affinity with small animals!"
Li Ziqi whispered softly.
"Well, I can't do it anymore. Even the old hen will be afraid of me!"
Ying Baiwu feels that she has no connection with animals.
Sun Mo and Li Ziqi immediately glanced at the iron girl. You were poor back then. Your eyes were green when you were hungry. The little animals must have sensed your 'hungry' and wouldn't run far away before they were caught by you.
Maybe I'll eat it.
Soon, a huge rock wall appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the spiritual energy dragon crawled in through a half-meter-wide rock crack.
Sun Mo and Li Ziqi hesitated, worried about any danger, but the naturally cute Lu Zhiruo walked in carelessly, completely trusting the spirit dragon.
Sun Mo and the others turned sideways and entered the rock crevice. After walking a few dozen meters further, a natural cave formed by the earthquake appeared.
Chirp!
The spiritual dragon screamed.
"Little Loach told you to hurry up!"
Translated by Lu Zhiruo.
"Do you want to be fully prepared before coming down?"
Li Ziqi frowned, everyone brought torches, but this cave obviously requires a long walk, and the torches should not be enough.
"Go down and take a look first!"
Sun Mo didn't want to put in the effort, as it would take a lot of time to go back and forth.
"Zhiruo, how about I go ahead and lead the way?"
Ying Baiwu suddenly spoke and ran from the back of the team to Lu Zhiruo's side.
Although the teacher has the strongest fighting ability, he must not be allowed to do the work of scouting and exploring. Ziqi is too stupid and Zhiruo is not strong enough, so only he can do the rest.
Chirp!
Lingqi Youlong turned around and shouted a few words.
"Little Loach said there is no danger!"
After Lu Zhiruo finished her report, she added: "I will shout if there is danger, you run away first!"
Seeing this scene, Sun Mo was very satisfied. Senior sisters should care about each other.
"good!"
Ying Baiwu returned to the end of the team, but not because he was afraid, but because he wanted to hold on to this place to avoid being attacked by others behind him.
The cave is downward, with a very steep slope, and there are even three or four-meter-high vertical rock walls in some places. Fortunately, everyone is a practitioner and has excellent physical fitness. Otherwise, they would not be able to get down without the tools.
Although Ying Baiwu and Lu Zhiruo were little girls, they walked very easily, but Li Ziqi couldn't. She stumbled and fell twice during the process, breaking her knees.
Wow!
Li Ziqi slipped again and fell out.
"careful!"
Sun Mo grabbed Xiao Po's clothes.
"Woooo, why am I so clumsy?"
Li Ziqi was so angry that she wanted to cry, but facing Sun Mo's concerned eyes, she forced out a smile: "Teacher, I'm fine, don't worry about me!"
"How much longer do we have to go?"
Sun Mo asked. He estimated that he had been walking for more than forty minutes.
Lu Zhiruo and Lingqi Youlong murmured a few words in unknown syllables, and then shouted: "Little Loach, hurry up!"
It was indeed fast. After walking for nearly ten minutes, blue fluorescence suddenly lit up in the cave.
"What is this?"
Ying Baiwu was stunned.
There are some crystal stones on the rock wall, and these are the things that shine.
"It's a spiritual crystal, which is the essence of spiritual energy."
Li Ziqi, who has read a lot of books, immediately gave some popular science: "When the spiritual energy is too strong, it will crystallize and form a kind of ore."
This thing can also be regarded as a kind of spiritual stone, which can be used to absorb the spiritual energy in it for cultivation, but it is more expensive than the spiritual stone.
Spiritual stones are minerals, and because they are produced in the same way as coal, they are usually mixed with some impurities. However, these spiritual crystals are crystals made after the spiritual energy is too rich. They have no impurities, so they are more pure and naturally more expensive.
.
The further you go, the more luminous crystals there are on the rock wall, and the light becomes brighter and brighter.
“The aura here is so rich!”
Ying Baiwu took a deep breath, feeling comfortable and wanting to scream.
"Isn't there a spiritual energy vein near here?"
Li Ziqi's expression was shocked. Apart from this reason, she could not think of other reasons for the time being, but no matter what, she must have made a fortune.
Lu Zhiruo suddenly stopped walking and jumped towards a gap in the cave wall.
"I'll get off first!"
Sun Mo raised his hand to stop Li Ziqi and jumped down first.
Snapped!
Sun Mo landed almost silently, and when he fell, he quickly turned his head and took in a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.
Then he was stunned.
This turned out to be a huge corridor with murals carved on the walls. However, due to the passage of time, they had peeled off and become blurred. Also, due to the erosion of a large amount of spiritual energy, spiritual energy essence crystals had grown in many places.
"We must not fall again this time!"
Li Ziqi took a deep breath and prepared to land in a beautiful and elegant posture. However, before she could exert any force, her foot slipped again and she fell directly.
"ah!"
Li Ziqi screamed in shock, and then felt hugged by a pair of strong arms and fell into a warm embrace.
Xiao Hebao looked ashamed and was thinking of finding an excuse to cover up her embarrassment. Sun Mo had already put her down and took the initiative to change the topic.
"What do you think this place is?"
"An underground palace?"
Li Ziqi answered casually, with gratitude to Sun Mo in her heart. The teacher is really considerate!
Snapped!
Ying Baiwu landed with such a beautiful posture that even girls will fall in love with her.
The spiritual dragon continued to lead the way, and this time it was very close.
At the end of the corridor, there is a broken door. The rich spiritual energy washed out from inside, so the broken hole is almost covered with spiritual energy crystals.
Sun Mo smashed the crystals and got in.
The three girls followed, and when they saw the environment inside the door, they were so shocked that they almost forgot to breathe.
Li Ziqi was born into a noble family and had a distinguished family. She had seen mountains of silver and gold, but now, she looked dumbfounded as if she had found a treasure.
Because there is a main hall inside the door, about the size of a football field, which is covered with spiritual energy crystals and exudes bright light.
Those crystal stones, cluster after cluster, are like blooming flowers.
"Teacher, I'm a little dizzy!"
Ying Baiwu pinched her eyebrows.
"This is the phenomenon of drunkenness. Meditate quickly to digest the spiritual energy in your body, and then control your body and don't absorb the spiritual energy!"
Li Ziqi quickly reminded.
"Drunken spirit?"
Ying Baiwu looked confused. As a self-cultivation practitioner, she didn't understand any of these basic knowledge.
"It's just that the spiritual energy is too strong and the body can't absorb it all at once. The resulting phenomenon is a bit like a headache and dry mouth after a hangover, but it's not too harmful."
Li Ziqi explained, filled with emotions.
Cultivators in the Kyushu of Middle-earth wish they could absorb spiritual energy when they eat and walk, but they don’t, because the spiritual energy in Middle-earth is too thin. Some practitioners with poor qualifications must prepare elixirs or a large number of spiritual stones to advance, otherwise they can rely solely on
Their own abilities are unable to gather a large amount of spiritual energy, which will lead to failure in level advancement.
Now in this hall, with just one breath, spiritual energy enters the body. What kind of luxury is this?
If people knew about this geomantic treasure land, it would definitely lead to frantic looting. No, it would be more than just frantic looting, it would be enough to trigger a war between countries.
"With so many spiritual crystals, how much is this worth?"
Ying Baiwu's eyes shone and he realized that there was no such unit in his mind.
"Junior sister, you need to take a longer view. For top practitioners, what does money mean?"
Li Ziqi chuckled.
"Money can buy a lot of things!"
Ying Baiwu was puzzled.
"Wrong, the fundamental reason why money can buy things is because someone formulated a credit system, and then chose gold and silver as coins for trade. If you can formulate a credit system, you can formulate any thing as
Currency, recorded in ancient history, the earliest currency was various shells."
Popular science about Li Ziqi.
"Can shells be used as currency? The ancients were all fools."
Ying Baiwu curled her lips, and she could hardly understand what Li Ziqi said.
Sun Mo glanced at Xiaobao in surprise, my dear, do you still know this kind of economic knowledge?
“Then how can we develop a credit system?”
Lu Zhiruo was curious.
"With the strongest military force, it can be as large as conquering the nine states of China, as small as conquering a country, and then formulating a currency system!"
Li Ziqi talked eloquently.
"alright!"
Sun Mo saw Li Ziqi talking with great interest, so he quickly interrupted her, and then sighed with emotion, Xiao Po Po might be able to become the Minister of Finance.
"To put it simply, if you have money, you will be robbed without the protection of force, so these spiritual crystals can be used to help cultivators improve and build an army of cultivators of their own!"
Sun Mo added.
The great man once said that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, but where does the barrel of the gun come from? Of course it comes from piles of money and food.
"understood!"
Ying Baiwu nodded: "Use the resources here to cultivate an army, and then rob whoever has more money!"
"I see!"
Lu Zhiruo suddenly realized.
"..."
Sun Mo was speechless, I said Ying Baiwu, although what you said is essentially correct, but do you want it to be so simple and crude?
As a human being, you should still have some dignity!
Chirp!
The ignored spirit dragon screamed, and then swam in front of Sun Mo with a proud look on his face. Did you see it? My repayment is so valuable!
Remember, I am not a loach, I am a noble spiritual dragon.
"Ah? You can fly?"
Ying Baiwu screamed.
Suffered, exposed!
The Spiritual Qi Wandering Dragon was immediately startled and quickly put away his flying ability, then fell to the ground with a bang.
Chirp!
Lingqi Youlong screamed, it hurts so much!
"Little Loach, are you okay?"
Lu Zhiruo quickly squatted down and stroked the spirit dragon.
Chirp!
Lingqi Youlong immediately rubbed his head against Papaya Girl's little hand, with a look of aggrievement on his face, but the name "Little Loach" sounded so good when called by this busty girl.
It’s decided, when I’m in front of you, I’m just a little loach!
