My experience in another world
Page 578
On the shady side of the mountain, Sun Ke entered a narrow cave and after going 50 to 60 meters deep, a low passage suddenly opened up. A series of wide passages extending in all directions appeared, like an ant nest.
Dots of fluorescent algae are scattered on the stone walls of the passage, dispelling the darkness.
Sun Ke followed the route in his mind, turning and descending. After a while, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water, deep pools appeared at the intersection of the passage.
“Could this pool of water lead to an underground river?” Sun Ke couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
“Place the gathering point deep in the mountain, and use the thick mountain to cover the Dragon Locking Courtyard for investigation.”
“The entrances and exits are complex and varied, and these pools of water are likely connected to underground rivers. Even if we are discovered, it won’t be difficult to escape.”
“As expected of a member of the Yuanping Fufang organization, he has experience!” Sun Ke felt excited: “It is so secretive and safe, the customer flow must be very impressive.”
He brought more than 200 bottles of fasting pills this time, and they could only be consumed at once if there were more customers. In addition, he also needed to purchase yellow sprout rice, and only large-scale markets could meet the requirements.
Just as I was thinking about it, I turned a corner and a huge underground space covered with high and low strange rocks appeared.
In the left corner, seven or eight transparent jade beads were embedded in the strange rock, illuminating an area as large as half a basketball court.
At this moment, more than twenty people wearing masks were gathered together to talk.
Sun Ke just took a look and his pace suddenly slowed down, feeling a huge sense of disappointment in his heart.
Kodaira Fukubo? That’s it?
Can these few people really digest the fasting pills I brought?
He endured the disappointment and walked forward, paying a white jade as an entrance fee, chatting with everyone one by one. In the end, he only collected about 300 kilograms of yellow sprout rice and sold 41 bottles of fasting pills.
“They are all poor bastards!” Sun Ke looked unhappy.
“Everyone, I will be leaving Jiangyang County for the Shiwanda Mountains soon, and the gathering here will no longer be held.” A fat man wearing a black robe and a bronze ghost mask spoke.
Everyone was talking about it, and Sun Ke’s face became more and more ugly.
After searching for seven or eight days, I finally found a gathering place for Qi Refiners. Not only are there few people, but they are also about to disband?
If he can’t harvest the yellow sprout rice and sell the bigu pills, how can Mr. Gongsun let himself live well? !
Just as I was thinking about what might happen, I suddenly felt an itch on my spine, as if something was crawling and growing inside my body.
Seven Sons of Unity? !
Sun Ke suddenly felt a chill in his heart!
No, I must sell the fasting pills as soon as possible and exchange them for white jade money!
He couldn’t help but look at the man with the bronze ghost face mask, and a cruel look flashed in his eyes.
This Xiaoping Fufang cannot be disbanded!
Not only can they not disperse, they must continue to expand in scale to attract more Qi Refiners to exchange resources!
……
Half a month later.
The Statue Cave is located on the west side of the courtyard.
Most of the bluestone slabs on the ground were removed by Chen Mu, leaving only two crisscrossing stone paths that divided the courtyard into four vegetable plots.
At this time, the dark brown soil in the vegetable field has been filled with various green vegetables.
Chen Mu stood on the noon corridor on the north side. Under the control of Qi Ban Baili, a large ball of jade dew flew over the vegetable field, sprinkling jade dew drops.
“The local vegetables in Luandu County are okay, but they are still not as delicious and fresh as the ones I grow myself.”
He has migrated many times over the past decade, and has been to the netherworld and the underworld. He has eaten countless wild vegetables, but whenever he finds something he likes, he will keep the seeds as a treasure.
It is spring-like all year round in Shenxiang Cave, and there is a Jade Dew Well that provides high-quality nutrient solution. Not long after arriving in Shenxiang Cave, he turned the west courtyard into a vegetable garden, planting a variety of vegetables for his taste.
As he thought about it, a gray wall appeared before his eyes.
Huangquan General Principles: 799/10000/th level;
“Thinking carefully, it is strange that this statue cave is very suitable for condensing the acupoints for cultivation.”
The practice of Ningqiao cultivation will consume the original energy. Ordinary people need Peiyuan Dan to strengthen the foundation and replenish the essence. Chen Mu used Huiyuan Tang instead.
There is a jade dew well in the cave of the statue. The jade dew in the well can replenish his origin, and it is endless. He doesn’t even need to use the dew-collecting spell to collect and refine it.
What’s more, the cave is isolated from the outside world and no danger can get in. It is simply a perfect place for retreat.
“It’s just that there’s a lack of earth spiritual energy, so it needs to cost some white jade money.” Chen Mu smacked his lips and sighed.
After half a month of practice, he had completed one tenth of the last level of Huangquan General Principles, but the 150 white jades he had obtained from selling the Bigu Pills had all been used up. Most of the more than 200 white jades he had originally had were also consumed.
“Sun Ke hasn’t arrived yet? Has he been captured and taken to the Dragon Locking Courtyard?” Chen Mu frowned.
“It shouldn’t be possible. With the Absolute Breath ability covering it up, as long as Sun Ke is careful, he won’t be discovered by the Dragon Locking Courtyard.”
“That guy is flexible and low-key. He is a man of few words. There’s no problem.”
“Well, it’s probably because the journey is too long and it delayed us for some time.” Thinking back to Sun Ke’s previous performance, Chen Mu felt relieved.
……
“Rebuilding Pingfufang, are you crazy?” A fat man with a bruised face and nose stared at Sun Ke in disbelief.
“The lesson from the past is right in front of us. The huge Pingfufang was wiped out by the Suolongyuan. If you want to die, don’t drag me with you!”
“Hmm?” Sun Ke glanced at the other person expressionlessly.
The fat man’s body suddenly trembled, and the fat on his face twitched.
Thinking of his own situation, he felt bitter, but he had to persuade them: “Mr. Sun, this is really not something you can do! Gathering thirty or fifty people is fine, but gathering one or two hundred people at once is too easy to be discovered, and people will die!”
“Then wasn’t it a waste of time that I spent the past half month digging holes, opening mountains and building a stronghold?” Sun Ke stared at the other party coldly.
Immediately he put on a smile again and walked forward, slowly helping the other person straighten his collar while trying to persuade him.
“Why don’t we be a little braver?”
“You know the effect of the Breathless Stone. With it, no matter how many people gather together, you don’t have to worry about being investigated.”
“Besides, even if you don’t have confidence in me, you have to have confidence in the person behind me, Mr. Gongsun. He can force the Suolongyuan to retreat head-on. With him around, what are you afraid of!” Sun Ke said in a calm voice.
“More importantly, the more people there are, the higher the entrance fee will be. If I charge him two white jades per person, it will be a steady stream of money. How much white jade money will that be?”
“Fifty percent of it will go to Lord Gongsun, but the rest will be split equally between us. What do you think…”
The fat man’s expression suddenly changed. He put the bronze ghost mask in his hand on his face and said loudly: “Just tell me how many people you want to gather.”
“Of course the more the better!” Sun Ke smiled.
With a slight bang, a wooden box as high as his forearm appeared at Sun Ke’s feet. He kicked the wooden box open, and a pile of black pebbles covered with patterns appeared.
“All these Breathless Stones should be dispersed.”
“Each participant will be given two, so that they can come secretly and leave safely, and ensure that they will not be discovered by the Dragon Locking Institute!”
“As long as we hold it once, Pingfufang will be completely rebuilt. From now on, we can just sit back and collect money!” Sun Ke’s eyes flashed with brilliance.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 532 Concentric Gu
Deep in the Nanliang Mountains, there is a cave with bright lights.
Sun Ke was sitting in front of a round stone table, on which was a small wooden box filled with white jade coins.
He grabbed a handful with both hands and then let go, listening to the clinking sound of the white jade colliding, and was extremely excited.
Pingfufang was successfully rebuilt, and the entrance fee alone amounted to more than three hundred white jade coins.
In the past, he could only earn fifty or sixty white jades in a year by running around, so he had never seen so much white jade money.
“The fat man’s 25% cannot be less.” Sun Ke counted out seventy or eighty white jades with great pain.
That guy was a member of Yuanping Fufang. He mastered a secret method of transmitting sound over a large area, which allowed him to avoid the Dragon Locking Courtyard and only be detected by the Qi Refiners. It was precisely because of his ability to advertise that he was able to attract nearly two hundred Qi Refiners at once.
“There is still half that belongs to Gongsun Yaodao.” Sun Ke gritted his teeth and carved out more than half.
Looking at the rapidly decreasing amount of white jade money, his eyes turned red.
“Or, steal the money?”
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Sun Ke’s heart began to beat fast and he reached out to grab the majority of the white jade money that had just been divided out.
But just when I stretched out my hand halfway, I suddenly felt an itchy sensation along my spine, as if a thin snake was swimming inside.
Sun Ke’s face turned pale at that moment, as if someone had poured a basin of ice water on him in the middle of winter. The greed in his heart instantly dissipated.
My life is in their hands, and the reason why Pingfufang was successfully rebuilt was because of the cover-up of the Absolute Breath Divine Power. If I really take the money, I’m afraid my fate will be very ugly!
“But if we want to hand over this money to Gongsun Yaodao smoothly, it’s not easy.”
Just tell the other party that you have set up a market?
Sun Ke immediately shook his head.
Although he had not had much contact with him, he could see clearly that the demon might be powerful and ruthless, but his style of action was actually quite cautious.
The Dragon Locking Academy searched the world, and the Qi Refiners were in a state of panic, but I went against the tide and established the market with great fanfare. If that demon Taoist really knew about it, I’m afraid he would ask me to disband the market immediately.
Looking at the white jade coins in the box, Sun Ke’s eyes flashed.
“The market cannot be dispersed!”
“So, the money has to be given. But the matter of the market… has to be kept secret!”
……
The statue cave and the main hall of the City God.
The wide and long altar was covered with a soft quilt. Chen Mu was lying on it, supporting his face with his left hand.
There was a bracelet-sized black rope ring on the index finger of his right hand, which was spinning in circles, and his eyes were staring blankly at the statue.
It took him a while to come back to his senses and his eyes regained focus.
“This guest Sun ran quite far away, but there is no way to communicate with him.”
“However, although I can’t share the five senses, and I can’t perform the Seven Souls Return to Origin, the connection between the Concentric Gu and the Concentric Rope has not been broken at all.” Chen Mu couldn’t help but look at the Concentric Rope that looked like a black rope ring on his index finger.
Having nothing to do these days, he began to ponder the Tongxin Gu in Sun Ke’s body.
