Chapter 188 Bustling City
After walking around the construction area of Tianhefang City, Li Qing realized what it means to spend money like water.
Along the way, he visited three shops selling elixirs, and the amount of spiritual stones he had on hand, which originally amounted to about two thousand yuan, suddenly shrank to one thousand four hundred yuan.
Such lavish spending made his heart bleed.
This is the wealth he accumulated after working hard for more than a year in the mine to mine spiritual stones!
"Fortunately, I have these elixirs on hand. If I use them sparingly, it should be more than enough for a year or so!"
"The spirit stone is not really spent, it is just used in another way. You can stay by my side in this way!"
Li Qing thought in his heart like a consolation, and at the same time kept comforting himself that the miser did not end well, it was all external things, and his own strength was real.
But after shopping around today, if you compare the prices of the elixir shop opened by Yaowangling Shijia in Tianhefang City, it is relatively cheap.
The Danding Pavilion of the Tianhe Sect is the most expensive. A Peiyuan Pill in the Danding Pavilion costs fifty-five spiritual stones, while the Yaowangling Historian only costs forty-five.
One pill is worth ten spirit stones, which is not a small amount if calculated over time.
Of course, Tianhe Sect’s Danding Pavilion has a good reputation and is backed by a large sect, so it is expensive for a reason.
Even so, the business of Danding Pavilion is also quite good.
And for the Tianhe Sect, I am afraid they really will not pay attention to this little income from Danding Pavilion. In other words, the entire Tianhefang City belongs to them, and they only earn a small amount of money every year. The commission from the spirit stones is a very astonishing figure.
“We can try to compare after we go back. If the quality of the elixirs is almost the same, most of the elixirs purchased in the future will probably have to be placed at the Yaowangling Shijia’s shop.”
Li Qing secretly thought in his heart, carefully calculating the cost of each spiritual stone, wishing he could break one spiritual stone into two pieces and use it.
As the sky gradually darkened, Li Qing did not forget about accommodation.
His token can only stay in Tianhe Sect for one day. When the time is up, he will be expelled by the formation guarding Fangshi.
If you want to continue to stay, you must find a place to stay like an inn.
Otherwise, if you want to come in again, it will take three days.
This is to avoid someone taking advantage of the loophole, because entering Tianhefang City only requires one spiritual stone, but if you want to stay, you must spend at least three spiritual stones to stay in the inn.
Some people once did this when Tianhefang City was established. After arriving in Tianhefang City, in order to save the cost of staying in an inn, they would leave every day after getting stuck, and then turn around and run to the entrance of Fangshi City. He handed over a spiritual stone and got in again.
Later, too many people did this, which caused the workload of the Tianhe Sect disciples stationed in Fangshi to increase exponentially. The number of tokens that needed to be registered every day reached an exaggerated number, and they finally felt unbearable. The burden is heavy.
And because of this reason, the inns in Fangshi became deserted, their income was greatly reduced, and they almost closed down.
The Tianhe Sect came up with such a rule. After leaving Fangshi to return the token, you must wait three days before returning.
Otherwise, the formation will record its aura and prohibit its entry. It will only disappear after three days.
“Alas, you really have to spend spirit stones everywhere!”
After entering Tianhefang City, Li Qing deeply understood the importance of wealth among the four elements of cultivating immortality. sex.
Here, it’s really difficult to move without a spiritual stone!
In the end, Li Qing chose an inn that charged the cheapest spirit stones, only three spirit stones a day.
He handed over the number of spirit stones he needed to stay for three consecutive days, and then asked the innkeeper to help him record the aura on the token. After increasing the time he could stay in Fang City, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir, please keep your token!"
Li Qing took the token, turned around and came to his room.
It is much simpler than expected. The room that charges three spiritual stones a day only has a bed, a table, and a futon.
Fortunately, the spiritual energy is strong enough, much stronger than in his small courtyard of the Liu family.
"After buying the elixirs, I have to find out about the spirit wood in the remaining time, as well as matters related to the weapon refining technique. I heard that other weapon refiners will prepare special carving knives for themselves when refining weapons. and the forge."
"In addition, I have to find time to visit the stalls in the square area."
Suddenly, Li Qing felt that his time was becoming tight again. Get up, for fear of not having enough time.
“Accommodation costs three spiritual stones per day, and setting up a stall costs five spiritual stones per day. In other words, the cost for those stall owners to stay in Tianhefang City for one day is eight spiritual stones!”
"I guess the things sold at the stalls will not be cheap, the spiritual stones are probably stolen by the Tianhe Sect. No wonder everyone wants to become a disciple of the Tianhe Sect."
Needless to say, the Tianhe Sect's income is so abundant. In addition to this city, there are also other industries such as Lingshi Mines. The welfare benefits of the disciples and elders of the Sect must be extremely good!
Thinking of this, Li Qing became more and more looking forward to his token with the word "Ling Yun" engraved on it!
After a while, Li Qing threw these distracting thoughts out of his mind and took out a round and shiny elixir from the storage bag.
It is the Guangling Pill I just bought from Danding Pavilion today!
It is worth thirty-five spiritual stones and has less erysipelas. It is most suitable for monks in the middle stage of Qi refining.
"Time is of the essence, let's take one first and feel what it feels like."
After finishing speaking, Li Qing directly put the Guangling Pill into his mouth.
The smell of the medicine was very strong. Li Qing did not want to chew it, for fear of wasting the potency, so he swallowed it in one gulp.
Soon, the surging power of the medicine was released, and the pure spiritual power melted into his meridians. Without saying a word, Li Qing closed his eyes and began to run the "Fire Source Skill", concentrating on refining the medicinal power of this Guangling Pill.
Buzz!
The rich spiritual energy between heaven and earth was also absorbed by Li Qing at this time into pure spiritual power and entered his body. As the days passed from week to week, Li Qing's mana began to grow again.
At the middle stage of Qi refining, the speed of cultivation had slowed down a lot. At this moment, Li Qing finally felt the joy of growing in cultivation again.
As the night passed, Li Qing opened his eyes, filled with joy.
“Yes, this Guangling Pill is really suitable for taking in the middle stage of Qi refining. One pill can almost offset my many days of hard training.”
Li Qing, who had tasted the sweetness of the elixir, wished he could take another one for himself.
I even wish I could eat this elixir like a jelly bean!
Unfortunately, with limited financial resources, he does not have the ability. After all, not everyone has the surname Han.
Putting down the restless emotions in his heart, Li Qing stood up and walked out of the shabby inn.
Facing the warm sunshine, walking in Tianhefang City, with longing for the future, Li Qing walked towards the square area of Fang City.
It was still very early, but many monks came early to set up stalls in order to compete for a good spot.
This time Li Qing came here with the intention of looking for something related to weapon refining or some spiritual wood seeds.
Having not taken a few steps, a stall with many people gathered in front caught his attention.
At this time, the stall owner was shouting loudly, and he was no different from ordinary people in the market.
"Come and see, come and see, some of the newly excavated objects in Lingmiao Taoist Cave may contain rare treasures!"
"Taoist Lingmiao, the Taoist Lingmiao who was in the late stage of foundation building eight hundred years ago? It is said that this person has profound magic power and extremely tyrannical fighting power. He even had the lives of several fake elixir monks on his hands!"
"Hiss, the recent rumors in the restaurant are actually true? The magical Taoist was born in his cave?"
"But it is said that this person has left the Qingling Territory."
< br>"Xu is a cave where Taoist Lingmiao once lived, and it is not a tomb inheritance. What's so strange!"
In the world of cultivating immortals, if you have poor talent and no background, there is another way to climb up. Climbing path.
That’s good luck!
I have to admit that some people are indeed very lucky.
While walking on the road, you can meet the appreciation of a Taoist master. When you go out to travel in the mountains and rivers, you can pick peerless elixirs. You can even be chased and fall into a cliff. You can also fall into the treasure left by a peerless strong man. In the cave, and then received the immortal inheritance, it was a blessing in disguise!
Most people hope that this incredible luck will accompany them, but unfortunately, such people are only a minority.
But even this cannot stop many people’s enthusiasm for treasure hunting.
For example, this stall owner may have unearthed various objects from the newly unearthed Lingmiao Taoist Cave, perhaps hiding some inheritance about that Taoist in the later stage of foundation building?
Although the probability was extremely small, even Li Qing couldn't help but be curious and stepped forward to watch the excitement.
I saw a lot of debris placed on this stall, and it was indeed stained with fresh soil.
“It does look old, but these old objects don’t seem to have any aura!” Some people watching the excitement voiced doubts.
However, the stall owner was not in a hurry. He smiled cheerfully and replied: "Oh, you overestimate me. Now there are even monks in the foundation building period in the cave of that wonderful Taoist. Explore inside.”
"I don't have the ability to bring out those spiritual objects."
"But maybe the treasures are hidden, and the real good things may be hidden in these seemingly ordinary objects! "
"It depends on your luck!"
The stall owner's few words immediately aroused the emotions of all the monks present.
After all, it is about a monk who is in the late stage of foundation building. If he really encounters great luck, maybe he will be the next magical Taoist?
As a result, many people began to touch the dirt-stained objects on the stall with their hands.
Among them, the shabby little tripod is the most eye-catching, with three legs and two ears, which coincides with the true meaning of the great road.
Unfortunately, apart from touching the soil, there is no more gain.
Some people even used spiritual power to explore, but unfortunately there was no response.
Suddenly, a voice sounded:
"How many spiritual stones does this broken and rotten blade have? I want it."
Suddenly, countless monks followed the sound, wanting to know who had caught the eye so quickly.
I saw a young man with an extremely handsome face and sincerity in his eyes standing in the crowd, talking with a smile.
Shi Nantian!
Li Qing, who was hiding in the crowd, also saw the young man and recognized him at a glance.
I didn’t expect to meet him here!
But soon someone went to check the broken and decayed blade, wanting to know what was special about it.
Naihe, I can’t see any problem at all.
