Chapter 538 Rental of Artifacts
Cang Mao thought for a while, but still hesitated and said: "The strength of the Fake Human Emperor is not bad, so I will believe you for the time being.
However, we have to first It’s agreed, if the cats don’t fight, you can’t let me help you kill people, otherwise I won’t go with you.”
Zhang Haoran hesitated a little this time, he wanted to do it, and agreed immediately! This will definitely win Cangmao's favor.
But he couldn't guarantee that there would be no time when Cangmao's help would be needed, so he had to agree in advance, so he said: "Yes, it is possible.
However, if you encounter an emergency like today, you still have to help. You don't have to kill people, as long as you can restrain the enemy. "
!!!
Cangmao hesitated for a while, thinking of the delicacies on earth, and agreed reluctantly: "Then it's agreed, cats don't fight, they kill. You have to do everything. At most, I will secretly help you with a little help, but you can't let others know. ”
Actually, he knew that Cang Mao’s reluctance to kill people seemed to be related to its black swamp.
If it took the initiative to kill people, the black swamp would expand rapidly. This may be because of its own The murderous spirit will arouse more negative emotions.
However, it is not accurate to say that Cang Mao does not kill. When it attacks the monsters in the sea, it never shows mercy. Even when it came out this time, it also killed many ninth-level monsters, all in a string. Bake it and eat it.
They even use animal food as seasoning!
This is what Cang Mao said himself.
In fact, this is very easy to understand. In Cang Mao's eyes, those ninth-level monsters are just food. Eating monster beasts is not considered murder.
Think about it, when humans eat drunken shrimps, they eat them alive, and no one is seen to be filled with murderous intent.
So although murderous aura exists, it is a very idealistic thing. It just depends on what you think.
He has always believed that those so-called no-killings are completely nonsense. Who can guarantee that no-killing is true?
If you step on an ant to death, it is considered killing!
When washing your face, do the mites killed by slapping them count? Doesn't it count as life just because it is small?
What should you do if you have roundworms in your stomach? Shouldn’t you take medicine? Stomach hurts and feels stiff?
As long as you take medicine, it counts as killing the roundworms. Is this considered killing?
So when Cang Mao said he didn’t want to fight or kill people, he didn’t take it seriously at all. He could treat his enemies as fish, and if he didn’t kill people, there would be no problem in fishing!
Besides, if he really encounters an enemy, he doesn’t need Cang Mao to kill him. As long as he can help control him, he can kill him with just one sword. Even the most powerful person can’t be controlled by him. Under certain circumstances, he can also kill.
At least over a million enemies died in Zhang Haoran's hands, and he didn't care about killing a few more.
The first condition was not met with a satisfactory answer, which made Cangmao a little unhappy. In his opinion, it would be best not to do anything at all.
So Cang Mao said cautiously: "Then let me tell you the second condition!
We have agreed before that all the artifacts borrowed from me must be returned. They cannot be used like some people. After taking the artifact, no one was seen!"
At the end of the sentence, Cangmao's mood suddenly dropped.
Zhang Haoran knew that this was about Mo Wenjian, but Cang Mao actually had very complicated feelings for him.
It's like you have a very good friend who starts disappearing after asking you to borrow a sum of money. You must be very sad at that time.
This is not just because the loaned money is gone, what is really sad is that a precious friendship has been lost.
Sometimes you may think, I don’t want the money, let’s continue to be friends. It’s not worth losing a friend for such a small amount of money.
But that’s impossible. How do you say this idiom? It's called a broken mirror, but once something like this happens, it's impossible to go back to the past.
How many real friends can a person have in his life?
The human heart is the last thing to be tested.
Cang Mao was definitely not distressed about those artifacts. He was depressed because he could no longer see Xiaojian and play with him.
Seeing that Cangmao was not in a high mood, Zhang Haoran stroked its fiery red fur with pity, and immediately assured: "There is absolutely no problem with this!
As long as I borrow it from you The artifact will be returned to you when it is not used.
And we will not borrow it in vain. We can pay the rent on a monthly basis."
Cangmao is indeed an optimist, so he will do it right away. Attracted by his words, he asked curiously: "Rent? This is quite interesting, so what are you going to use to pay the rent?"
That's what Zhang Haoran said just now. He didn't want to see Cangmao in a low mood and wanted to change the topic to arouse its curiosity.
If you see it really asking, then you have to think about it carefully.
He said very calmly: "The treasures of heaven, materials and earth are definitely not enough. We humans are still relatively poor. The treasures of heaven, materials and earth must be used to improve our strength. If it is used to pay rent, we will definitely not be able to afford it."
Cangmao nodded lazily. In fact, he was not interested in the treasures of heaven and earth in the eyes of humans. The main reason was that the grade was too low and of little use to it.
Cangmao has been with Lu Zhen for several years, and they also know how poor human beings are. In their eyes, ordinary energy fruits are good things. Those with slightly special effects and helpful for cultivation are called Treasures from heaven and earth.
Cangmao is not interested in these things at all. It doesn't care about the amount of energy. It only cares about whether the food tastes good or not. It said casually: "How about using life essence? It doesn't need a lot. Just 100 kilograms a month will be enough." .
I haven’t had this kind of drink for a long time. Do you have any here? Pour a glass first, my mouth is dry.”
Zhang Haoran threw a gourd to it. It was still the same kind of juice, and he said angrily: "You should drink this! It tastes better than the essence of life.
We all save the essence of life for life-saving use. Many masters of the older generations have boiled it. The oil is almost exhausted, and I don’t want to use it at all.
You can imagine the loss of 100 pounds a month.
The current inventory in the entire country of China is only one or two thousand kilograms at most, and even if you can rent it for a few months, you won't be able to rent it. "
Cangmao could see that he was not lying to himself. In ancient times, the essence of life could only be regarded as a common resource. As long as people with a certain level of strength were not short of it, it said in confusion: " oops! You are really so poor!
The essence of life can be condensed by a demon plant. Why don’t you catch a few more and let them work.
I also had a cat tree before.
It's a pity that it ran away while sleeping, otherwise there would be no shortage of drinks and fruits to eat. ”
How should he answer this? Could it be that Cang Mao was told that in the past, no one even thought about capturing the demon plant alive? If there was a chance, they would simply kill him to become a magic weapon.
The main reason is that in the past, human beings were too poor and did not have many energy stones, which were not enough for cultivation. How could there be rich resources to condense the essence of life.
This is not a necessity, many functionally immortal substances can also be substituted. Now he is a little richer, and he has the conditions to catch some demon plants to condense the essence of life.
However, the average ninth-grade demon plant only has a few hundred kilograms in its body, so the efficiency of condensation is not very high. Even if it can be condensed, the supply will exceed the demand, and they are all used to save lives. , it is impossible to use it to pay rent.
Zhang Haoran coughed lightly and changed the subject: "How about we use delicious food to pay the rent?
Anyway, you are a greedy cat who also likes to eat. Whatever you like to eat, I will use it. How about paying the rent?"
He wailed in his heart, he finally started to fool Cang Mao and wanted to pay the rent with some ordinary food.
But there is nothing we can do about it. Although there are some foods sold in Wanjie Building, they are all made of high-grade monster meat. I can’t say whether they are delicious or not. They are expensive anyway.
A plate of meat from a third-level monster would be worth tens of thousands of points.
It's worse to eat that food than to kill monsters in the cave. Killing one is enough to buy thousands of plates.
The fourth-level dishes are more expensive, starting from 100,000 value points. Cangmao really can’t afford to feed these things.
It’s more cost-effective to use delicacies from the earth. It’s delicious and not expensive, and it’s filling in large portions.
Cangmao blinked his big eyes and said happily: "What I want to eat most now is the cat fruit. How about you help me catch the cat tree.
When the time comes, I can lend you two artifacts.
Uh-huh-huh! It’s settled, you take the cat tree back and see how many fruits it still has.
Based on two artifacts, one month’s rent is one cat fruit. If it’s 100, I will lend it to you for ten years.
How about I be generous?
That cat tree belongs to me. Even if I find it back, it will be returned to its original owner. "
Zhang Haoran suddenly looked at Cang Mao with black lines on his head and said: "Generous? You're so generous, using 100 cat fruits to lease two artifacts for 10 years, I'm crazy, but it's pretty much the same. ”
Stop making trouble! Cat fruit! That is the best energy fruit formed by the top demon plant. It has the effect of repairing the original world and stabilizing the original path. It contains a large amount of original energy, which is also very helpful in improving cultivation. It is a very precious treasure of heaven and earth.
If humans had Cat Fruit, Kong Lingyuan wouldn’t have to recover from his injuries for more than ten years.
100 Cat Fruits are enough for human beings to produce several extremely powerful people. That is not much better than two artifacts!
And it’s rented, so it can only be used for 10 years.
Zhang Haoran does know the location of the cat tree. It should still be in the Cang Yue Dynasty of the Category Demon Plant. Its alias is Emperor Cang, and he is a very wretched little old man.
The Cang Cat’s name is Cang Di, and it’s obviously not out of the shadows yet.
If there is a chance, it would be a good idea to let Zhang Tao catch it back. Those cat fruits alone are worth a try. Besides, the cat tree is the ultimate demon plant, condensed with the essence of life. It's also a higher level, so the effect should be better.
However, that is the territory of the Yaozhi Royal Court. If Zhang Tao really goes there, he will have to start a war. Let’s talk about it later.
Anyway, when those old antiques come out, they have to catch the cat tree to regain their strength. Even if you don't care about it, it will run back on its own.
Zhang Haoran coughed lightly and changed the subject again: "Like this, Cangmao, you will come back to Earth with me in a few days.
We have a lot of delicious food there, some of which you have never tasted before. You can try them all. The first one is my treat.
Then you decide which one is the most delicious, and we will use it as rent. You can choose whatever you want. There is no limit to the type. It doesn’t matter how many you choose. "
When Cang Mao heard that there were so many kinds of delicacies, he immediately became energetic and asked curiously: "Are there many delicious foods on your earth? "
Zhang Haoran said affirmatively: "More! There are so many, it would be an exaggeration to say they are countless, but if you want to say there are tens of thousands of delicacies, there are definitely them.
Especially our Chinese cuisine, which is world-famous. There are 8 major cuisines alone. I don’t know how many famous dishes there are, but there are thousands of them, which is the least. ”
When Cangmao heard that there were so many delicious foods, he was immediately happy.
In fact, no rent is given. If humans really encounter difficulties, they are willing to lend artifacts, as long as you remember to return them after using them.
Cangmao is still very easy to talk to. It nodded and confirmed: "As long as I say it is delicious, you can eat it as much as you want, okay?"
This time it is true. After asking Zhang Haoran, it stands to reason that Cang Mao’s request is not excessive. It is just ordinary food on the earth. Even if it is allowed to eat casually, it will not cost much.
I guess just selling some cultivation energy stones would be enough for it to last for a year.
But things can't be seen that way. This is a top-notch cat. Ordinary food contains no energy, so it can eat no matter how much it eats.
It’s not okay to leave it open and eat it. This is not a matter of money. You have to pay attention to the impact!
Thinking about the scene of large trucks outside queuing up to deliver food to Mowu, it makes people’s scalp numb. Do we really need to hire hundreds or even thousands of chefs just to cook for Cangmao? Food?
Zhang Haoran said with some embarrassment: "Cangmao! We'd better quantify it. Eat whatever you want. This is too general.
And it's not easy to measure the value of the artifact. You It is said that borrowing one item is for free use, but isn’t borrowing two items also for free use?
If this is the case, you will definitely not be happy if I borrow all your artifacts, but if I borrow too few, I will still feel that I am at a disadvantage, so let’s clearly mark the price! "
As he said that, he took out a bag of third-level animal food from the storage space. This bag weighed two to three hundred kilograms.
He pointed at the animal food. Said: "We don't look at the volume, we only calculate the weight, and we use this weight.
No matter what you want to eat, one month's rent for an artifact is three hundred kilograms of delicacies. It's no problem if you want all animal food. ”
He can still supply a few bags of animal food a month.
When Cang Mao heard that it was only three hundred pounds, he immediately said dissatisfied: "This is too little!
This little thing is not enough for me to eat in one bite. Do you want to starve me to death?
If you are so stingy, I won’t lend it to you.”
Zhang Haoran also felt that the offer was a bit small, so he said sarcastically: “How about three hundred catties per week? br>Anyway, the food on earth has little energy. You just want to taste it, you don’t need to eat much.
What I'm talking about is the rental fee for an artifact. You only pay this much for a week. Wouldn't it be too much if you lend out a few more?
This is the price that the person who borrows the artifact from you needs to pay. It is not good to set it too high.
Don’t worry, I don’t need the artifact, and I won’t borrow it from you.
Even if someone borrows it, I will urge them to return it.
If you go out with me, I will naturally be responsible for the normal cultivation resources, which are all good things that can increase your cultivation. ”
