Chapter 294 Extremely Yin, Zombie! (2-in-1)
"Qiankun Bag! Good stuff!" Song Changming's eyes lit up and he became energetic.
"Could it be that kind of strange object with a cave inside it?" Song Ping'an also heard about it and couldn't help but wonder.
"Yeah." Song Changming has seen this kind of Qiankun bag before.
His superior in the military, Xing Tiexin, has one.
Among the lieutenants, Zhao Linxin and Tang Qicheng, who were born in aristocratic families, seemed to have one each.
It looks like a small brocade bag, but it hides a cave. It is equivalent to carrying a nearly vacuum space with you, which is often used for storage.
The flesh and blood stored in it are extremely difficult to decay, which is very miraculous.
In addition, it is said that this kind of Qiankun bag is a fifth-level talisman, with the fifth-level rune 'Qiankun' as the core. It is extremely difficult to engrave, and only a handful of people in the world who are proficient in talismans can make it.
It is basically impossible to buy this kind of Qiankun Bag on the market, because these high-end talismans often require connections.
You need to go to the Fu Dao master with the materials to customize it, otherwise few Fu Dao masters will take the thankless task of making such extremely difficult talismans to sell to the outside world.
Compared to Song Changming's novelty, the children of aristocratic families and dignitaries showed little interest in the Qiankun Bag.
Not to mention that most of them have it on their bodies, if they want, they can also find a Fu Dao master to customize such talismans through family connections, which is not difficult for them.
Compared with such functional high-end talismans, they are often more interested in extraordinary treasures with greater artistic value and collection value.
"The base price of this Qiankun Bag is one hundred medium-grade spiritual crystals." The host quoted the price.
"Hiss, it's so expensive!" Song Ping'an took a breath when he heard this.
The people below all looked normal and did not have much reaction to the low price.
"This Qiankun bag is expensive because of the fifth-level rune 'Qiankun' on it. After all, there are only a handful of Talisman masters who can inscribe the fifth-level rune. In addition, the materials required for its production are also quite rare and precious. The production cost is not low.
Nowadays, the market price of Qiankun bags is basically open and transparent. I think the final auction price will be much higher than this price. Song Changming shook his head and said.
"Master, what do you want?" Song Ping'an heard Song Changming's intention and couldn't help but ask.
"Yeah." Song Changming leaned on the bench and took a sip of tea.
The Qiankun bag is quite convenient. Wearing one on your body will make it convenient to store things when you go out. You can travel easily anytime and anywhere.
If he had such a universe bag with him when he got the spiritual crystal before, he wouldn't have to carefully hide it in the wild and just put it directly into the universe bag.
"I want one hundred middle-grade spiritual crystals."
"I will give you one hundred and five middle-grade spiritual crystals."
"."
As the bidding began, sparse bidding began to appear in the venue, which was not as intense as when seeing popular items before.
Those young men basically did not participate in this round. Most of them drank tea, talked and laughed, waiting for the end of this round of bidding.
However, although there were not many people participating in the bidding, the price of the storage bag slowly rose to one hundred and sixty mid-grade spiritual crystals in the end.
"One hundred and eighty."
A sudden bidding sound suddenly increased the number of mid-grade spiritual crystals by twenty, causing some ripples, and soon there were no other bidding sounds in the venue.
In the end, this Qiankun Bag was sold for 180 medium-grade spiritual crystals.
"Sir, is this price too expensive?" After Song Ping'an called out the price, seeing that no one was willing to follow up, he turned around and whispered.
"It's a slight premium, but at this auction, a certain premium is normal," Song Changming said.
He thought he was going for more than 200 mid-grade spiritual crystals, but he was quite satisfied to be able to buy a Qiankun Bag with 180 mid-grade spiritual crystals.
"Go." Song Changming handed a money bag to Song Pingan.
"Okay." Song Pingan understood and did not ask where this precious spiritual crystal came from.
Within a moment, he took back the Universe Bag.
Song Changming took it in his hand and looked at it. The Qiankun Bag was black and yellow, only slightly larger than a palm, and looked like an ordinary little cloth bag.
But when he touched the little cloth bag with his spiritual power, something strange emerged.
His perception suddenly extended into the bag, and he detected the cave inside the square bag.
It was a white space that was not very big, like a large room about twenty to thirty square meters and five meters high.
There are dots of runes around the room, sometimes disappearing and sometimes appearing, shimmering, and moving around from time to time, leaving trails behind, which has its own mystery.
Song Changming casually tried to put the teacup into the bag.
However, when the teacup only reached the mouth of the bag, the small space suddenly distorted, and the teacup disappeared.
When Song Changming checked, there was already an extra teacup in the bag, floating in the white space.
Then he thought about it and used his mental power to try to grab it.
The next moment, he put his hand on the bag, and the teacup was back, intact and without any changes.
"Knife." Song Changming took his long knife and heavy weapon again and put it into the Qiankun bag with the same ease, but the bag did not become heavier at all.
"Sir, this thing is really magical." Song Ping'an murmured.
"Only in Gu Yuan Kingdom can there be such extraordinary things that are beyond imagination. It is simply unheard of in that country."
Song Changming nodded, he was quite satisfied with the function of this Qiankun Bag.
If we compare these inventions to technological progress, the human race in Gu Yuan is far ahead of the country of Dai Lai.
Of course, this is also due to the limitations of the innate environmental differences, which is destined to make it impossible for Dalai to develop as brilliantly as Gu Yuan Kingdom.
The shooting of the Qiankun Bag was just an unsurprising episode for the entire Jinyu Society, and the bidding continued after that.
Song Changming also saw a few auction items that he was slightly interested in, but he didn't take action again.
On the one hand, the origin of this spiritual crystal is unknown, and he does not want to use it too high-profile, so as not to be targeted by interested people present.
On the other hand, for this spiritual crystal, he still needs to use it for daily practice, so he still needs to budget carefully.
I don’t know when the next opportunity will be for me to get rich like this again.
Until late at night, the Jinyu Club ended and everyone dispersed.
"General Song, will you gain anything tonight?" Before leaving, Shi Dongsheng approached Song Changming again and asked.
"Most of the time I just watch the fun." Song Changming said casually.
Shi Dongsheng smiled and continued: "From now on, I will send someone to send you an invitation before the Golden Jade Party is held. As for whether you come or not, it all depends on the general's mood."
"Thank you very much." Song Changming nodded.
After watching Song Changming get on the carriage and leave, a servant following Shi Dongsheng asked in confusion.
"Master, this person is just a general, so why do you need to try so hard to win over him?"
"Then I'm still just a centurion, even worse than his lieutenant." Shi Dongsheng glanced at him and said.
"Well, the young master is a direct descendant of the Shi family. This time he only had experience in the military. How can he compare with it?" the servant said hurriedly.
"Not to mention that the Shi family is not at the top of the family now and can only be regarded as a first-class family. General Song is only a deputy general today. When he takes off in the future, everyone in our Shi family will have a good relationship with him." Shi Dongsheng shook his head. road.
"Nowadays, forming a good relationship has only advantages and no disadvantages."
"The young master is right." The servant lowered his eyebrows and said respectfully. He somewhat understood his young master's intentions. An ordinary lieutenant general in the army could not attract the attention of the Shi family.
My young master has taken a fancy to this person's potential for development beyond being a deputy general.
And this is actually the case.
As the person in charge of that new military camp, Shi Dongsheng knew Song Changming's extraordinary qualities better than anyone else, and he believed that Song Changming, like him, would be promoted sooner or later!
The next day.
Song Changming put on a suit of armor and went to the barracks where he was stationed to monitor the discipline of the soldiers on a daily basis to see if the training atmosphere was lazy.
It’s time to bang, it’s time to reward.
This is also one of his jobs as deputy general Xing Tiexin.
As a general, his duties include not only fighting and killing, but also some daily tasks that take up most of his official time.
After wandering around, Song Changming carried a bottle of glass wine and went to the small office courtyard where Fu Yuan was located.
"Brother Song, sit down quickly." Fu Yuan was not surprised when he saw Song Changming carrying wine. After saying hello, he went to get two wine bowls.
During their stay at the station, the two of them often drank and talked like this. This was not the first time.
"Good wine! It should be the superior glass wine from Liuli Hall!" Fu Yuan put down the wine bowl and said with a cheerful smile.
"As expected, the wine in this city cannot be hidden from Brother Fu." Song Changming nodded.
After chatting and laughing for a while, Fu Yuan took out a long box and opened it.
"It's all here."
There are several rows of reddish-brown pills neatly arranged in the long box. There are hundreds of pills in total, and each one is as big as a pigeon egg.
What I smelled from it was not the aroma of elixirs, but a strong blood gas, which was not very pleasant to smell.
In fact, these are pills, rather than specially made meatballs!
The raw material is the flesh and blood of many monsters killed by Song Changming, and the essence of blood is extracted and refined.
Swallowing these meatballs is equivalent to swallowing the blood essence of those monster beasts, which is suitable for Song Changming's body refining.
Compared with cooking monster meat for consumption, the meat elixir refined in this way is obviously more efficient and less troublesome to eat, and it also reduces the loss of qi and blood in the flesh and blood material to a certain extent.
Therefore, now Song Changming takes advantage of his position to basically hand over all the monsters he kills to the army for processing, and obtains these meat pills.
And since Fu Yuan has always been responsible for some of the logistics work of their army, he also helped manage this matter, making this matter feasible.
For this matter, Song Changming thanked Fu Yuan frequently.
"Brother Fu still knows me." Song Changming took the long box and said with a smile.
The inventory at home has been depleted, so I came here specifically to replenish it with the meat pills.
Drinking is the next best thing.
Afterwards, the two drank and talked about the current situation.
Mentioning the achievements gained from guarding the mine for a year, mentioning the Golden Jade Party last night, and mentioning his family. "How much does Brother Fu know about the Corpse Refining Sect?" Song Changming suddenly asked.
"That Corpse Refining Sect in the Thirty-six Cave Heavens of Southern Xinjiang?" Fu Yuan asked, squinting his eyes and tasting the wine.
"Exactly."
Fu Yuan thought for a while and said.
"We have had some contact in the past. This sect is good at refining corpse puppets and often causes chaos. It is considered an evil sect. There are only a few people in it who care about the overall situation."
Fu Yuan shook his head as he spoke, obviously not very appreciative of this human clan clan.
"It is said that when we were fighting the spider demon that day, this Corpse Refining Sect member was also causing trouble..."
Song Changming brought the topic to the Corpse Refining Sect, and after drinking a glass of wine, he suddenly said.
"Brother Fu, do you think these corpse puppets have any sense of self?"
Fu Yuan paused and nodded.
"have."
"I once beheaded a disciple of the Corpse Refining Sect, and his corpse regained his memory and consciousness for a moment. He thanked me and helped him free himself..."
As Fu Yuan spoke, he seemed to recall the scene at that time and sighed.
"Since it has a self, is this zombie a dead thing or a living person?" Song Changming continued to discuss.
Fu Yuan instinctively wanted to say dead things, but on second thought he felt he couldn't answer.
After a moment of silence, he just said: "He must be dead."
"I'm dead. I wonder if I can be brought back to life..." Song Changming murmured.
Fu Yuan looked at Song Changming, vaguely aware of the obsession in Song Changming's words.
Suddenly he made a guess and asked with a little hesitation: "Brother Song, do you have relatives or friends who have been killed by the Corpse Refining Sect?"
Song Changming didn't say anything clearly, but just nodded.
"I've never heard of a corpse puppet being able to come back to life." Fu Yuan said with an apology on his face.
"It doesn't matter, I just mentioned it casually." Song Changming shook his head.
After the two of them finished the pot of wine, Song Changming stood up, said goodbye and left.
Before leaving, Fu Yuan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped Song Changming.
"In my early years, I heard some rumors, saying that a dead person suddenly pretended to be a corpse, got out of the coffin, and turned into a zombie.
And I have also heard in ancient books about the deeds of Zombie people practicing cultivation, but I don’t know if this can be regarded as resurrecting the dead.”
When Song Changming heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
In the evening, the bright moon hangs high.
On the table by the window in the study, Song Changming's eyes fell on the iron box beside the table.
The lid of the iron box was open, and Xiao Jin was standing there upright, bathed in the silvery light of the moonlight, with many thin whiskers floating in the air, pulling the moonlight energy from the sky into its body.
"Do you know Zombie?" Song Changming suddenly asked.
This mountain ginseng essence has been buried underground for more than five thousand years and knows many strange things in the world.
If Song Changming wanted to know some secrets of the world, perhaps the most reliable way would be to ask this mountain ginseng spirit.
Xiao Jin's fine whiskers that were flowing happily suddenly stopped. It was a little unhappy that the moonlight bath was interrupted, but it didn't dare to show it.
Breathing out a breath of spiritual mist, he curled up his handwriting.
"Some people with extremely yin constitutions may become zombies after death."
"Extremely Yin physique?" Song Changming frowned.
"The conditions for becoming a zombie are very stringent. Extreme Yin physique is just one of them. You also need to be in an extremely Yin place before the corpse decays and absorb enough Yin energy. In addition, the deceased must have a strong obsession before death. Only now can I become a zombie."
This time Xiao Jin wrote a few long lines, describing in great detail the many necessary conditions for becoming a zombie.
I have to say, this little guy really knows a lot.
Especially this kind of strange things that are buried deep underground
