Chapter 171 Spend money to buy information!

"Fellow Taoist, is the spiritual tea in my building delicious?"

While Shen Lian was waiting in the tea room, a voice rang at the door.

Then, a middle-aged monk wearing a green robe walked in.

"I heard from the servant at reception that your surname is Lu?"

"Exactly."

Shen Lian nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, my surname is Wang, the manager of Qianqiu Tower. I wonder what kind of spiritual object you want?"

Manager Wang didn't delay and asked directly.

Shen Lian glanced at it and said, "We need some first- and second-order thunder attribute ores, as well as some elixirs for cultivation."

"Fellow Daoist Lu, first- and second-level thunder attribute ores are nothing. As for the elixirs for cultivation, can you tell me how much my military merit is worth?"

"Lu has just entered the city not long ago and has not gone on a mission yet."

"Fellow Taoist, I'm sorry. If you want to buy the elixirs used in cultivation at your current level, you must have at least 30,000 combat merit points to be eligible."

"Manager Wang, is Mr. Lu willing to pay 20% higher than the market price?"

Shen Lian looked unwilling.

"Fellow Taoist, you should also know what is going on now. Although our Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce is spread throughout the South China Sea, the sky in this South China Sea belongs to the Yunshang Sect."

Manager Wang looked stern.

"Thirty percent."

Shen Lian glanced at Manager Wang's expression and spoke again.

Manager Wang still shook his head.

"Add fifty percent."

"Fellow Daoist Lu, we are a chamber of commerce, so why don't we keep a panacea for sale?"

Steward Wang smiled bitterly and said, "This is an order issued by several elders. We must cooperate with the edict of Yunshang Sect. I am not the one who can make the decision."

"What if it were doubled."

Manager Wang's eyes flickered. To build the ninth level of the foundation, he needed either the Moonlight Containing Circle Pill or the Starfall Secret Pill.

Even if he wanted Yuehua Hanyuan Dan, a low-quality one would cost more than 30,000 spiritual stones, and double that would be 60,000 yuan.

But Manager Wang's eyes flashed a few times, and finally he shook his head.

He did not dare to disobey the elders' orders.

"Oh, then I'll go to the trouble of getting the thunder attribute ore."

Shen Lian pretended to sigh and shook his head. Of course, he was not here to buy the elixir. He was mainly here to test it and see if the Yunshang Sect's edict was strong.

As the largest chamber of commerce in the South China Sea, the Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce complied this way, which can also prove from the side the intensity of the demonic chaos in the Tianzhu Mountain Mining Area.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to restrict the external sale of elixirs.

It's not that the sale of elixirs is prohibited. According to the regulations of the Yunshang Sect, the battle merit value is equivalent to the spirit stone. You can use the battle merit value or the spirit stone, depending on the monk's own wishes.

But the premise is that certain elixirs require a sufficient amount of combat merit to be eligible for purchase.

You don’t have to use it if you have combat merit points, but you definitely can’t use it if you don’t have combat merit points.

"Steward Wang, my family needs to build a second-level formation with thunder attributes, so we need more first- and second-level thunder attribute ores."

Manager Wang showed a look of understanding and quickly walked out. When he came back, he brought a storage bag.

"Friend Lu Dao, these are enough for you."

"Thirty jun of second-grade low-grade thunder stone, three jun of red thunder spirit stone, twenty jun of thunder fire stone..."

Shen Lian checked the storage bag and pretended to ponder for a moment, "Please prepare more first-level thunder attribute ores."

"How much do you want, fellow Taoist?"

"Three hundred jun."

Manager Wang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say much. He just sold things and never cared about what others were buying.

"Fellow Taoist, later."

Not long after, Manager Wang retrieved the thunder attribute ore.

"What other spiritual things do fellow Taoists need?"

"Can the sale of Moon Spirit Essence be restricted?"

Shen Lian pondered for a while and asked.

Manager Wang had a flash of understanding and determined that Shen Lian was seeking to buy the Yuehua Hanyuan Pill.

Now that you can't buy Yuanyuan Dan, you can only buy medicinal herbs and seek alchemists to refine them.

Thinking of this, he smiled.

Is this pill so easy to refine?

"Fellow Taoist, the various materials for alchemy are not restricted. Do you really want the Moon Spirit Essence?"

"Two servings."

After Shen Lian pondered for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said.

Soon, Manager Wang handed the two jade boxes to Shen Lian.

After completing a deal of more than 200,000 spiritual stones, Manager Wang was in a good mood, "You don't have to worry if you really want to buy spiritual elixirs. It's not easy to kill some ordinary foundation-building demon cultivators with your fellow Taoist strength." matter."

"Do you have any inside information, fellow Taoist?"

Shen Lian stopped collecting the jade box and looked hesitant.

"Fellow Taoist, we have run out of money and goods."

Manager Wang was also startled and cursed himself for talking too much.

"Fellow Taoist, you cannot retreat."

Shen Lian smiled lightly and put away the jade box.

"Manager Wang, can you tell me some inside stories now?"

"I have just entered the city a few days ago. To be honest, I came here to buy spiritual items, but I didn't expect to encounter a demonic cultivator who tortured me. The family is still waiting for me to return. I am really unlucky. I also asked fellow Taoist Wang to give me some advice. two."

"Fellow Taoist has only been here for a few days, so it is normal to not know what is happening in the mining area."

Manager Wang had tea served again.

"Now a big demon has appeared in the mining area. He is fierce and powerful. It is said that he is expected to have a Nascent Soul."

"hiss……"

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes.

"Why, fellow Taoist, you still don't believe it?"

Manager Wang chuckled, picked up his tea cup and took a sip before putting it down leisurely.

"Looking at the entire South China Sea, there are only a dozen monks who can hope for the Nascent Soul, and there is nothing wrong with the old demon Yuan Ling.

But it is said that this old demon has practiced a mysterious technique, using the devouring monks as nourishment to refine yin and transform yang, which is extremely powerful.

Before that, the name of Old Demon Yuanling was nothing among the demonic elixirs in the mining area.

Now that I think about it, the strength of the monks refined by Lao Mo before was too low, so they were not exposed.

Now, the old devil needs to devour the golden elixir monks for nourishment, and finally can no longer hide it.

Now it is no longer just a matter of the old devil's hope for the Nascent Soul. He has devoured the golden elixir monks as nourishment for his cultivation. It is said that he also wants to integrate the devil cultivators in the Tianzhu Mountain mining area to establish a demon sect.

How could the emperor let him go if he was such a vicious person?

This is also where I said that Fellow Daoist Lu will have an opportunity to earn military exploits. The old demon will dominate the large and small demon cultivators in Tianzhu Mountain, and there will be a conquest when the time comes.

Fellow Taoists can join some temporarily formed demon hunting teams in the city to hunt down those little demon cultivators.

Of course, with the strength of fellow Taoists, you can also go out of the city to hunt demon cultivators alone or with a team of demon hunters, so that you can gain more military exploits. "

At this point, Manager Wang paused and moved towards Shen Lian.

"The next words, I, the elder of the Chamber of Commerce, have an order not to spread nonsense, but Wang and Taoist friend hit it off immediately, as long as it comes out of my mouth and into your ears, and no third person can hear it."

Shen Lian's heart moved, and he said sincerely: "Fellow Daoist Wang, please give me some advice."

"If you want to ask for safety, fellow Taoist, then just wait in the city. Disciples from various sects are rushing towards the mining area. I believe they will arrive one after another before long.

When the time comes, by joining the demon hunting teams formed by the true disciples and disciples of various sects, the security will be greatly improved. "

"Even disciples from various sects are here. Could it be that this demon cultivator has some great opportunity?"

Manager Wang smiled and then waved his hand, "Friend Lu, just take your time and take a look. Keep your strength in mind. Maybe there will be an opportunity?"

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows and touched his palm inside the robe. He replaced the storage bag that he had previously purchased for thunder attribute ore and put it in the spirit stone.

"Fellow Taoist, please clarify my doubts."

Looking at the storage bag that was placed on the table again, Manager Wang's eyes were stunned, and then he stopped smiling.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, it's over. Our Chamber of Commerce has an ancestor from Jindan who is in charge."

As the chief helmsman of Qianqiu Building in the mining area, Manager Wang's status is higher than that of the shopkeepers in other mining areas.

Being able to reveal so much today was because Shen Lian had spent so many spiritual stones.

"Fellow Taoist, this jade pendant you are wearing is nice. Can you part with it?"

Shen Lian's expression did not change, and he pointed to the jade pendant around Steward Wang's waist, and then pointed to the storage bag.

"Buy my jade pendant?"

Manager Wang glanced at the jade pendant on his waist. His jade pendant was considered a second-level fine product and was worth eight thousand spiritual stones.

His spiritual thoughts then swept across the storage bag, and a strange look appeared in Manager Wang's eyes.

"Fellow Taoist, are you sure you want to spend 100,000 spiritual stones to buy this jade pendant of mine?"

Manager Wang took off the jade pendant and waved it in front of his eyes.

"This jade is crystal clear and delicately carved. Lu loves it very much."

Shen Lian's expression remained unchanged, and his tone became more sincere.

It was also at this moment that he felt a spiritual thought penetrate into the tea room and fall on Manager Wang.

Then, Manager Wang's expression hesitated for a moment, and then returned to normal in an instant.

"Friend Lu Dao, are you sure?"

Manager Wang played with the jade pendant, "Although this matter is still a secret, it may not be long before it spreads throughout the entire mining area."

"Lu came all the way and knows nothing about Mining City. He mainly wanted to make friends with Manager Wang."

Shen Lian nodded.

He is not stingy at all when it comes to spending spiritual stones.

"Ha... Wang then make friend Lu Daoyou."

Manager Wang placed the jade pendant on the table, and then poured Shen Lian some spiritual tea again.

The rules of Qianqiu Tower are strict, and the guild leader is even more decisive. If he hadn't just received a message from the elder, he would not have dared to agree to this matter.

Although one hundred thousand spiritual stones is a lot, no matter how much it is, it is not worth my life.

…

A quarter of an hour later, Shen Lian walked out of Qianqiu Tower, and Manager Wang saw him off.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, God knows and earth knows that you know and I know, and you must never let a third person know."

Listening to Manager Wang's instructions, Shen Lian felt like laughing.

When he spoke, three people already knew.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, Lu's mouth is tighter than a clam in the sea."

In front of the door, Shen Lian cupped his fists and saluted, then walked towards the city.

Manager Wang returned all the way to the building, passed through the long terrace, and entered a stone pavilion.

"Elder."

In the stone pavilion, Elder Geng squinted his eyes and listened quietly to the ditty.

"Well, okay, you can go about your business."

"Elder, this is the spiritual stone."

Manager Wang looked hesitant.

"Since you sell the jade pendant, it's yours."

Elder Geng spoke nonchalantly.

"My subordinates dare not."

Manager Wang took out the storage bag and placed it on the stone table.

Elder Geng squinted his eyes and looked at it, and said: "Keep twenty thousand yuan for yourself, and send the rest to the treasury, and record the information and sell it in the category."

"yes."

Watching Manager Wang leave, Elder Geng narrowed his eyes again and tapped the edge of the table with his fingers.

"Let's play music..."

…

After leaving Qianqiu Tower, Shen Lian walked quietly on the street.

The one who had passed the message to Manager Wang before should be a fake Dan. It is said that there are three fake Dan in the main mining city Qianqiu Tower. He has seen Elder Tian, ​​who should be one of the other two.

It is interesting that this fake Dan cultivator deliberately let Manager Wang reveal the news to him.

Does this mean that in the eyes of the fake Dan cultivators in Qianqiu Tower, he has also become a chess piece.

A chess piece that conveys this secret message.

Unfortunately, this fake Dan real person did not expect that his divine thoughts were intercepted by him.

The secret that Manager Wang told Shen Lian felt that it was not worthy of his 100,000 spirit stones.

There was no definite word in the message, either it was said or it was an ambiguous word.

But it was said with a solemn oath.

This secret is related to the Yuanling old demon who has been making a lot of noise recently.

It is said that the skills that Yuanling old demon is practicing now were found in a rift deep in Tianzhu Mountain.

Manager Wang did not say how Qianqiu Tower knew the news, but he swore that the news was absolutely reliable.

The magical power of the practice of the old demon Yuan Ling has been seen by the cultivators of Yunshang Sect.

Cultivating the five elements and absorbing yin and yang is absolutely mysterious and unparalleled.

Jinyuan Zhenren has advanced to the great perfection of the golden elixir for more than a hundred years, and the old demon Yuan Ling has just been promoted to the late stage of the golden elixir. His realm may not be stable, but he retreated calmly from the hands of Jinyuan Zhenren.

This further proves the mystery of this practice.

Of course, my righteous sect disdains to practice the magic practice. This move summoned all the cultivators to join the demon-killing event in order to get rid of the demon cultivators and destroy the practice (all the righteous cultivators spoke righteously).

Manager Wang said that the old demon only entered the outer area of ​​the rift valley and obtained this mysterious method.

Now the major sects suspect that there are very likely to be relics and other five-element spiritual objects in this rift valley.

Therefore, the disciples of the major sects will enter Tianzhu Mountain in the name of killing demons to find the location of this rift valley.

…

Shen Lian was also happy to buy an ambiguous message with 100,000 spiritual stones.

The cultivator who sold the information also wanted him to be a pawn to spread the news. This was really a big injustice.

However, Shen Lian changed his mind and felt that it was not a loss. Whether this news was true or false, it was enough to prove that Tianzhu Mountain would be very lively in the future.

At that time, everyone would rush into the mining area and hunt down the demon cultivators.

On the contrary, he could take advantage of this lively interval to escape from Tianzhu Mountain and find a quiet place with few people to complete his life event.

"Well, I dug your mine, so this time it's even."

After collecting his thoughts, Shen Lian walked towards the place he rented, thinking about how to get out of the mining city next.

As he walked, he came to the corner of the street and stopped.

"Daoyou followed me from Qianqiu Tower. Do you want the spiritual objects on me?"

As he said this, Shen Lian looked at the cultivator who followed him.
