Chapter 1161 Turning Stone into Gold?

"In that case, take it out!"

"There are four of you, each of you has three Silver Soul coins, which adds up to twelve Silver Soul coins."

The city gate guard sneered and extended his hand again.

In fact, he only charged two Silver Soul coins from each of those people.

Ordinary people at the settlement point receive a copper soul coin, while merchants receive a silver soul coin.

If you meet someone he doesn't like, or if you talk back to them, you will have to pay the price of three Gintama coins.

These three Gintama coins are enough to order a table full of fine wine and delicious food in a restaurant.

But when you get here, you can only exchange for a spot to enter the city. The difference between the two is really too big.

"I just saw you only charge those people two Gintama coins, but why did it become three for us?"

Lingling, who had been pretending to be a cute child before, was now a little unwilling and spoke directly.

You have to know that her candied haws only cost a few copper soul coins, and one silver soul coin can buy so many candied haws.

Until now, Tang Lan had only given her three Silver Soul Coins.

If she were to hand over all the Gintama coins, the little girl would definitely be the first one who would be unwilling to do so.

"Hmph, little sister, this is an adult matter, so don't interrupt."

"If you have anything to say, please let your parents come and talk to me."

The guard obviously didn't want to argue with a child, so he snorted coldly and spoke directly.

"Here are thirteen Gintama coins. Keep them safe. The last one is a gift from me."

However, Tang Lan did not say anything else. He just took out thirteen Gintama coins with a smile on his face and placed them in the man's hand.

"If you had done this earlier, things would have been much easier. I wouldn't have wasted so much time talking about it."

"Go in!"

Seeing that Tang Lan was so sensible, the guard weighed the Gintama coin in his hand and waved to Tang Lan and the other two, indicating that they could go in.

"Brother, why did you give so much money to that bad guy?"

"Why don't you let me burn him to charcoal? Then we can get our money back."

Even though the money was not paid by Lingling, this girl spoke with a painful look on her face when she thought of so many Gintama coins.

Tang Lan has always been very strict in disciplining Lingling and never gives her too much money.

This girl is still young and has lost all her memories of the Fire Queen. She has completely become what an ordinary little girl should be.

Therefore, Tang Lan must make this girl walk on the right path and never develop any bad habits.

In a sense, this is also the necessary discipline that Tang Lan has to give to Lingling, whom he regards as his sister. It is his responsibility.

Seeing Lingling's appearance as a little miser, Tang Ya and Chen Yue beside her both laughed.

For a moment, they seemed to remember what they were like when they were children.

At that time, they were also innocent and had no worries.

But after so much time has passed, they seem to have drifted away from their childhood and can no longer be seen as they were before.

"Those aren't Gintama coins!"

"Just keep an eye on it!"

However, Tang Lan had a smile on his face at this moment, and there was even a hint of mystery in this smile.

Then Tang Lan waved his hand and picked up three stones from the ground.

When Tang Lan opened his hands again, the three stones turned into three shining Gintama coins.

"Wow, how did they do that? It's amazing!"

When Lingling saw this scene, her cute big eyes suddenly widened.

Tang Ya and Chen Yue on the side realized that this was an illusion, but they were simply unable to see through it.

If Tang Lan had not grabbed three stones in advance, they would never have thought that these three Gintama coins were transformed from stones.

"It's just a little illusion!"

"With my current strength, the illusion I can create is enough to last for a month."

"That means that within a month, no matter who holds that Gintama Coin, it will remain a Gintama Coin, and after a month, it will completely return to its original state."

Tang Lan explained with a smile on her face.

Then Chen Yue commented with a serious face: "I have seen a few soul masters who are good at illusion."

"However, no one can do what you said. This is too unbelievable!"

"How is it that your illusion can make everyone around you think it is a Gintama coin instead of a stone? What kind of power and understanding does this require!"

Even though Chen Yue knew little about illusion, it was not difficult for her to draw inferences based on her own attainments in healing.

This is equivalent to her turning a piece of stone into a healing treasure that can heal other people's injuries.

In such a comparison, how is it different from the legendary turning stone into gold?

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed such a magical ability.

However, Tang Lan nodded and said, "You are right. This is a kind of understanding and control of the power of this world!"

"If your understanding can reach this level in the future, then even a piece of stone left behind by you can bring back to life a human being!"

Tang Lan seemed to see through Chen Yue's thoughts and gave direct advice to the two women.

As for how much Tang Ya and Chen Yue could understand, that was their own business.

Tang Lan understood that these insights were far beyond their realm, and no matter how much they were told, they could never fully understand them.

On the contrary, knowing more things in advance will disrupt your current pace of progress.

This is just like a child learning to walk. Before learning to walk, he has to learn to run.

This is not only an impossible thing, but also makes the other party doubt his or her own cognition.

The three of them found an inn in Tianque City and stayed there.

Looking at the bustling scene outside the window, Tang Lan couldn't help but sigh that the development speed of Tianque City was much faster than that of Tang City.

Of course, the latter was established only a few months ago, and there is no comparison between the two.

But in Tang Lan's opinion, as long as he wants to do it, Tang City will completely surpass such cities in the near future, and will not even be weaker than the so-called Douling Imperial City.

"Brother, the food we ordered is ready, let's go downstairs and eat something together!"

Lingling knocked on the door and after getting Tang Lan's consent, she jumped in.

Lingling was now wearing a pink dress. Although she was still young, she looked cute and pretty.

Any woman who sees Lingling would almost be unable to resist the urge to go up and give her a good massage.

Because Lingling today is simply the most perfect image of a future daughter in every woman's mind.

Chen Yue and Tang Ya were standing at the door with smiles on their faces. The residents around them were very envious of having two beauties waiting for Tang Lan together.
