Chapter 28 Entering the City
Although this battle took a short time, it was actually extremely thrilling, and a little carelessness would result in heavy casualties.
The fine steel spear fired by Wang Hong has been burned to the point where there is only a small puddle of molten iron left. Pour out the items in the two people's storage bags, there are several fireball symbols like this for the two of them.
There is also a golden light talisman, which should be used by the skinny Taoist. I also found a copy of "Thick Soil Jue", a copy of "Gengjin Jue", and a copy of "Basic Magic of the Five Elements". There are only more than 20 spirit stones in total.
"What a poor ghost!" Wang Hong lamented. He didn't know that these two people were still relatively wealthy in low-level casual cultivators. I don't know how many people have plundered to accumulate this wealth, and now it's cheap for him.
The two storage bags and the two low-grade artifacts are worth more than two hundred spirit stones. Many low-level casual cultivators don't even have magic tools, let alone storage bags.
Through this incident, Wang Hong felt that it was too dangerous to go outside the city without strength, and this time it was only a narrow victory. If he met a more powerful opponent next time, he would have no chance of winning. Besides, I don't know if the two are in the same party.
Early the next morning, Wang Hong brought Wen Lan, Luo Zhongjie and a dozen people into the city. He ordered a dozen of them to disperse to find a house. Wang Hong wandered around by himself.
His spear was destroyed yesterday. If he hadn't poured spiritual power into it during the battle, it would have been cut off by the thin Taoist sword. Moreover, if an ordinary weapon is injected with too much spiritual power, it will be exploded by the spiritual power. Today I want to look around and prepare some self-defense means for myself.
Talismans and magical instruments are also briefly introduced in "The Basics of Cultivation of Immortals". The use of the talisman is very simple. When using it, it only needs a little inspiration of spiritual power to release a corresponding spell.
Since the talismans are all one-time use, the cost of using them in battle is too high. Many monks bought one or two talismans, only willing to use them at critical moments.
As for the magic weapon, the most familiar one is the flying sword. In fact, there are many kinds of magic weapons. Can be roughly divided into three categories. That is, attack magic weapon, defense magic weapon, and auxiliary magic weapon.
Among them, the most common offensive weapons, the price is relatively low. Defensive artifacts are rarer, and the price is at least two or three times that of attacking artifacts of the same quality. Auxiliary instruments depend on their specific functions.
Wang Hong walked into a craft workshop, where there were more than a dozen shelves filled with all kinds of magic weapons.
A young man in his twenties greeted Wang Hong with a big smile on his face: "My fellow Taoist, what kind of magic weapon do you need? This store has three senior craftsmen. Not only are there finished magic weapons for sale, but also Customize all kinds of instruments."
"I want a spear-shaped magic weapon, do you have it?" Wang Hong said honestly.
"You came just in time, the shop just happened to have a low-grade magic weapon in the shape of a spear." As he said that, he took a wooden box from the shelf at the back, put it in front of Wang Hong, and opened the lid.
"This spear is one foot and three feet long and weighs six hundred and eighty catties. The gun shaft is made of century-old Chiling mulberry wood, and the gun head is made of black iron as the main material, and more than ten kinds of rare materials are added for refining."
Wang Hong gently stroked the barrel of the gun, warmed his hands, and tried to inject spiritual power into it, and the spiritual power flowed smoothly in it. After being infused with spiritual power, the spear weighing more than six hundred kilograms became as light as nothing.
Then the young man introduced this gun emphatically. It was the painstaking work of Gao Yue, the trainer in their shop.
Then there was another compliment, in short, this gun is unique, the only one in the world. It only sells one hundred and twenty spirit stones. If Wang Hong doesn't buy it, he will regret it for the rest of his life. In the end, one hundred spirit stones were sold.
Wang Hong asked again if there were any long spears used by mortal warriors, and asked them to be able to withstand the chopping of magical weapons.
The young man thought for a while, and said: "This can be made to order, with ten spirit stones per rod, which can resist more than ten times of low-grade magic weapons."
"I want fifty rods, let's talk about the real price." Wang Hong said lightly.
"Fellow Daoist, this is already based on the cost price. You know that if you can resist being hacked by a magic weapon, at least you need the materials for refining the magic weapon." The young man said with a sad face.
Wang Hong made a gesture to leave, but the young man hurriedly grabbed his sleeve.
In fact, Wang Hong felt that the price of ten spirit stones was quite cheap, so he planned to cheat him.
Actually, he didn't know that there would be some waste in the refining equipment, and these scraps could not be used in the refining equipment, and there was not much value in re-refining.
But it is a rare and good material for refining weapons for mortals that do not require spiritual power transmission.
Final 400 Lingshi, order 50 spears.
Before leaving, the young man sent Wang Hong to the door with a smile on his face.
"My name is Gao Yue, please come to me if you need anything in the future."
In the afternoon, Wang Hong joined more than a dozen people who were looking for a house. A total of five houses were found, Wang Hong looked at them one by one, and finally selected one.
The place is relatively remote, and few pedestrians can be seen on the street. There is a small shop facing the street. From the shop, you can see a large yard through the back hall. Surrounding it stood three rows of two-story houses.
This yard has a pavement, and the annual rent is 1,000 Lingshi. This shop is not very useful, and this street is sparsely populated, so it's a matter of whether they can earn back the rent.
What Wang Hong likes is that the yard is big enough for the team to practice. Although they are now setting up a stall to do business, the team's drills have not been short of a day. There were enough rooms to accommodate their large group.
Wang Hong paid the rent for one year, chose a house for himself, and left the rest to the team leaders.
Officially settled down, everyone's hearts also settled down.
In the next few days, Wang Hong wandered around the shops, and sometimes he even sold a stalk or two of spiritual grass.
He needs to understand the market situation. After all, he also has an inconspicuous small shop now. Although the location is not close, he decided to open the shop. Anyway, he has plenty of people.
In addition, his space is now one and a half minutes old, and the extra half floor is still empty. I haven't figured out which kind of elixir to plant.
Wang Hong walked into a grocery store, where an old man in Tsing Yi was sitting behind the counter and taking a nap. When he saw Wang Hong coming in, he just glanced at him, then squinted his eyes and took a nap.
There was no one else in the store, and Wang Hong was watching slowly in front of each counter. The store is not big, but it has a complete range of categories. Talismans, elixir, spiritual herbs, ores, magic tools, there are dozens or twenty pieces of each.
The two kinds of talismans seized by Wang Hong last time are also sold here. The fireball talisman needs eight spiritual stones, and the golden light talisman needs thirteen spiritual stones.
There are 20 or 30 pieces of magical instruments, some of which are still damaged, obviously they are second-hand goods received.
There is only one bottle of Qi Gathering Pill, which is priced at ten spirit stones, and there is a small sign on the front that says it is out of stock.
There are not many elixirs, and the quality is very average. They are packed in wooden boxes, and there are engraved formations on them to keep them fresh.
It seems that the spirit herbs and elixir are still in short supply. Wang Hong has already visited many shops, and the powerful big shops have their own elixir gardens and alchemists, and there is no shortage of spiritual herbs and elixir supplies needed for the Qi training period.
As for this kind of small shop, there is no stable supply of goods, and they all rely on buying low and selling high to earn a small price difference. Like Qi Gathering Pills, which can improve the cultivation of Qi, most monks get them and keep them for their own use.
There are hundreds of thousands of monks in the Qi training period in Qingxu City, and the annual consumption of pills can be imagined. However, the main medicine for refining Juqi Pill needs to be 20 to 30 years old, and the auxiliary medicine also needs to be more than ten years old.
Wang Hong quietly left the grocery store without disturbing the old man's retirement. Qingxu City is so big, there are still many shops waiting for him to visit.
