Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Chapter 311 Talk About Wine
Since there is no such thing as a storage bag at this time, these spirit stones are naturally inconvenient to carry around.

After putting all the gifts from everyone back to the cave, Gu Dan carefully calculated his current net worth.

The ten spirit stones obtained from the Wanuo Chamber of Commerce, the 72 spirit stones obtained from the three-year salary of the Law Enforcement Hall, the fifteen spirit stones issued by the internal meeting of the Law Enforcement Hall just now, and the gifts from many colleagues in the Law Enforcement Hall, all together One hundred and three spirit stones!

Adding all of them together, it was exactly two hundred spirit stones.

But it is not without consumption. He has gone out to drink spirit wine several times, spent five spirit stones, and signed a contract with Ningfang—even if he joins the Law Enforcement Hall, he should be given no less than one point. Another 24 spirit stones will be deducted.

"Based on this calculation, the total worth now is 170 spirit stones. If you stay in the mortal area, you will have to work hard for at least 17 years."

Gu Dan clicked his tongue slightly.

What has he done these three years?
Didn't do anything, just practiced silently all the time.

But just because of the difference in position and the change of identity, even if he does nothing, the harvest is extremely rich, so rich that those in the mortal area can only look up to it - this is not considered free Dongfu too!

If you really want to count this, people in the mortal region may not be able to win it if they work hard for a lifetime.

This is the benefit of being organized!

Of course, the reason why such a rich net worth can be saved is because of the "meeting ceremony" given to newcomers inside the Law Enforcement Hall.

It is also a spirit stone with the same purchasing power, but for monks in the late stage of Qi training and for monks who have just embarked on the road of cultivation, the meaning is absolutely different!
The first pot of gold is the hardest.

The Law Enforcement Hall gave the newcomers a gift of meeting by means of getting rich first and getting rich later, which not only solved the urgent needs of the monks, but also made them return to their hearts.

It's just a pity that this method only works in a very small circle, and those ordinary monks can only be used as cattle and horses and nourishment to support the operation of Xianfang.

If you can't get out of the cage, the fairy world is no different from the human world.

Gu Dan shook his head and got rid of the messy thoughts in his mind. He didn't have Mo Qiu's desperate love, and he didn't have the paranoia that Qin Lisheng didn't look back after confirming it. In his opinion, people value self-knowledge.

It is not impossible to rely on the help of others to change one's own situation, but it is not realistic enough.

The reason why those sages, sages, and great men who are talked about by people are so impressive, and their names are not forgotten all the time after thousands of years, is precisely because they are extremely rare.

If a person does not save himself, but only expects a hero to raise his arms or when it is his turn to be lucky, it is only natural for him to be humbled into the dust.

"Suddenly getting rich, I feel a lot of emotion."

Staring at the hills of spiritual stones piled up in the cave, Gu Dan shrugged slightly, "Keeping them is depreciating in value, you have to spend them."

As the monks become stronger and stronger, more and more man-made spirit stones are produced, and sooner or later there will be a day when the standard spirit stones cannot hold back.

The biggest dilemma in this small 'Cultivation of Immortals' today is that the productivity is far from enough.

Cultivation techniques and fairy arts can be solved through archaeological methods, but without elixir, monsters, and spiritual materials, you can't dig out a pile of junk for treasure, right?

Now among the six fairy workshops, the strongest fire workshop can barely develop middle-grade spiritual weapons—for monks in the Qi refining period, it is a bit expensive, and the price is even unimaginable, which can be said to be completely beyond its true value. the value of.

Who makes it so rare!
But for Foundation Establishment cultivators, even middle-grade spiritual weapons are a pity to eat and discard. There is not much difference between using them and not using them, and the increase in combat power can only be regarded as mediocre.

Everyone still has a good time and wants to practice, who has nothing to do to study combat power?
When developing rapidly, all problems are not a problem. Only when there is no progress, will you start to think of various ways to enhance your own strength.

Immortal Dao has only been in existence for less than a hundred years, and it has not yet reached the stage of ossification. It is the time to move forward bravely, and there is nothing to do to fight. How can there be too much expense?

If you want to spend, there are few places to spend!

"However, no matter what, it's the middle stage of Qi training, and orthodox monks will start to really study a few immortal methods at this stage, so naturally I can't be left behind."

Gu Dan groped his chin and thought about it.

In the early stage of qi training, the aura of the monks is weak, and it will dry up after a few times of celestial arts, and the durability is extremely poor.

Only in the middle stage of Qi training can one use some lethal and powerful immortal techniques, which are enough to last for a long time, and the combat power is already considered impressive.

Of course, Gu Dan is also very interested in fairy arts, but he doesn't need to pursue those highly lethal fairy arts, which are not something that can be mastered by the middle stage of Qi training. The power of his punch.

What he really needs to master are some auxiliary fairy arts. If he really wants lethal fairy arts, it's not too late to pursue them after the foundation is established.

As soon as he thought of it, Gu Dan walked out of the cave and ran directly to the trading area of ​​the prefecture-level area.

This is a place for monks to set up their own stalls, but there are very few people, and most of the things that can be put on display are classics and useless treasures.

Gu Dan walked to a booth, looked at the several classics displayed on it, and the corner of his mouth twitched immediately.

"Fixed Body Technique", "Soul Roar", "Heavenly Immortal".
"Is this fellow Taoist interested in fairy arts?"

Seeing the customer, the man immediately asked.

"No."

With just a glance, Gu Dan turned his head and left.

"Hey, fellow daoist, don't leave! Immortal arts here are cheap and available in large quantities, and each sect only needs one spirit stone! Don't leave, don't leave, five spirit sands are fine! How about three?"

No matter how the stall owner behind him persuaded him to stay, Gu Dan left without looking back.

Looking at the stalls one by one, there are countless exercises such as "Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Extinguishing Soul Art", "Yin and Yang Good Fortune Mysterious Art", "The Great Law of the Sky and the Earth", and "The Golden Body of Eternity". Dan almost thought that he had accidentally stumbled into some ancient and powerful dojo, and his main focus was a spirit of swallowing mountains and rivers.

Even the slightly restrained celestial arts, the names are more gaudy than the other, and there are some touching porcelains. For example, he has seen "Nanming Lihuo Burning the Sky", "Sun and Moon Condensing Heart Sutra", "Immortal Body Cultivation Technique" .
Even if the real fairy court comes here, I'm afraid they can't boast like this.

It's not just that the good and the bad are mixed, it's just random!
How deafening and breathtaking the name really is!
For example, the book "The Art of Immortality and Body Cultivation", Gu Dan glanced at it, and found that it was actually just a method for the movement of spiritual energy, which can nourish the body.

The problem is that the aura itself will nourish itself, and this technique of self-cultivation can at most make it grow a little faster. How dare you use the words 'immortality'?

Even if this crap was given away for nothing, Gu Dan wouldn't dare to practice it with him!
The point is not that a stall is named like this. There is one free trade area here, and the name is all exaggerated to the extreme.

When asked about the origin of these fairy arts, they often dug up some kind of fairy cave, which was obtained after untold hardships, and then asked about the price, one hundred spirit stones
It's hard to imagine that this group of people can really deceive fools by setting up stalls.

Looking around, Gu Dan only has four words to evaluate: eye-opening!

Not to mention looking for a familiar celestial art, and then collecting classics related to qi refiners. If the celestial art that is not used as a treasure by the novel is regarded as a success, if you really don’t buy it, you will make money.

In desperation, Gu Dan could only find Lu Yu and tell him about his dilemma.

"Haha, you want to buy fairy art, and you dare to go to the trading area?"

Seeing Gu Dan's rather depressed look, Lu Yu laughed loudly and said: "The group of people just picked up a storybook novel from the side of the road, and they dared to brag that it was written by an immortal, telling the truth of the Dao, and they wanted to brag about it for the first time in the world. The heavenly book is a treasure in the world."

"I also ask fellow Daoist Lu to help me."

Gu Dan was quite helpless, those people had done too much extra work, and even if there was even a tiny bit of real stuff, no one would dare to believe it, so they did it by themselves.

"I really want to buy fairy art. Immortal Workshop has its own Lingzhen Hall. You can go to Lingzhen Hall to buy it. It's all proven fairy arts."

Lu Yu said immediately.

"Isn't Lingzhen Hall planting spiritual rice and other things?"

Gu Dan was surprised, he really didn't know much about this.

"No. The Lingzhen Hall is not only in charge of spiritual rice and other things, but also how to cultivate spiritual plants, elixir, and even various exercises and secrets. The oil and water in it may not be less oily than our Law Enforcement Hall.

It's just the part that outsiders can touch, and it's just the lowest level of spiritual rice and other things. Don't underestimate the Lingzhen Hall. "

Lu Yu warned: "There are five Foundation Establishment cultivators in Ningfang. Except for the Hall Master and Fang Master, there are three of them sitting in Lingzhen Hall. One can imagine their importance."

The main goal of Lingzhentang is production, so its reputation is not obvious outside. Unless there is a major success, few people know its inside story.

Although the Law Enforcement Hall is famous, in terms of its value, it is afraid that it will be hanged and beaten by the Lingzhen Hall.

For example, the refining of flying boats and other matters are all being researched by the sub-branches of Lingzhentang. It can be said that it is a huge monster shrouded in Xianfang, but the time has not come yet, and it has not yet been subdivided.

The real contact with most of the monks is to collect taxes and other matters, which actually makes Lingzhen Hall's reputation quite bleak.

"I see."

Gu Dan nodded slightly, and asked again: "I wonder if there is a way to buy some ancient books that talk about ancient things? Daily practice is boring, and there must be some entertainment."

"Then you are asking the wrong person. You have to ask Zhuang Sheng."

Lu Yu shrugged and said, "Before you came, he was the person who could find leisure for me in the whole Law Enforcement Hall. Now you are better than Lan, and your hobbies are still so similar."

Lu Yu's gaze seemed quite strange. Why did everyone start to come to the Law Enforcement Hall to provide for the elderly?

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lu, I'll treat you to a drink another day!"

Gu Dan waved goodbye.

He went to Lingzhen Hall and bought two altars of spirit wine, which was called Chijiang, and it was the spirit wine that Lu Yu invited him to drink.

This wine is brewed from genuine Lingmi and smelted with the unique and top-secret techniques not handed down in Lingzhen Hall.

The most important thing is that this wine can also help people practice, although its effect is actually very ordinary, but it is quite remarkable at this time.

So of course, the price is also great.

Two jars of spirit wine cost Gu Dan a full six spirit stones!

If it were an ordinary monk, he would not be willing to take a sip throughout the year.

However, Zhuang Sheng can be regarded as one of his "younger generations", and he has something to ask for, so Gu Dan will naturally not be petty.

"Friend Zhuang Sheng, Kong Zhai is visiting."

Coming to the gate of Zhuang Sheng's cave, Gu Dan called out.

Not long after, the gate of the cave opened, and Zhuang Sheng came out, seeing the two jars of spiritual wine in Gu Dan's hand, his eyes lit up.

"I've heard about the name of fellow Taoist Kong Zhai for a long time. Today, there are many distinguished guests. Please come in, please come in quickly!"

Zhuang Sheng smiled and invited Gu Dan to take a seat.

The furnishings in the cave are very simple, there is only one tea table, two chairs, one futon and one bed. Besides that, there are many bookshelves filled with books, and the fragrance of ink is lingering.

When he was in the Xia Dynasty, Zhuang Sheng stayed in the Sutra Pavilion of the Xia Dynasty and read books all day long. Unexpectedly, when he came to the Buzhou Mountains, he still did not let go of this hobby.

"I'm bothering fellow Daoist Zhuang today because I heard that fellow Daoist Zhuang has read a lot of books and has extraordinary knowledge, which is far beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Gu Dan put down the two altars of Chijiang, and said solemnly: "It just so happens that I am also quite interested in the ancient ways. However, I have little knowledge and don't know where to start. I am here to ask Fellow Daoist Zhuang for advice. I also ask Fellow Daoist Zhuang to give me some advice."

"An ancient way?"

A strange look flashed in Zhuang Sheng's eyes. He is capable of cultivating immortals, and there are not many people who are still interested in the ancient ways. "There are also many ancient ways. Which aspect is Daoist Kong interested in?"

"Air refiner!"

Gu Dan finally said.

"A gas refiner?"

Zhuang Sheng said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I really have done some research. But if we really want to talk about this, it will be a long story. I'm afraid it won't be finished in three days and three nights."

"It's okay, my generation of monks just have a longer life."

Gu Dan pointed to the two altars of spirit wine, and said, "I would like to have a candle-lit night chat with Fellow Daoist Zhuang, and talk about the wine in the past."

"Very good! Fellow Daoist Kong is very suitable for me."

Zhuang Sheng said, "Wait a moment."

As soon as the words were finished, Zhuang Sheng got up and walked towards the rows of bookshelves, picking out books one after another.

In a short time, two stacks of books as tall as a person were stacked in front of Gu Dan.

The corners of Gu Dan's mouth twitched lightly when he was about to hold a candle night talk just now, "This is this?"

"These are myths and legends from all over the world, and they are all related to ancient times. If you want to talk about Qi refiners, you have to talk about witches, and if you want to talk about witches, you have to talk about myths and legends. This is a matter that affects the whole body , you can’t start from one side, otherwise you will be like a cat or a tiger, just like a dog.”

Mentioning this, Zhuang Sheng's face was very bright, "If you are so poor, if you want to find out the context, how difficult it is! Since you are interested in Kong Daoyou, I know that I can talk about everything."
