Chapter 34: Gambling
Unfortunately, the characteristics of the blood river inheritance in the two spells of red rainbow and red lotus are too obvious, so they cannot be easily cast."
Cao Cuo stood with his hands behind his back, and the green locusts in the red gourd at his waist flew out, cleaned up the tiger bones on the ground, and flew back without leaving a trace.
Consciousness moved.
Cao made a mistake to investigate the situation of Chunlei Academy:
Lu Qingmei is at the critical moment of retreating to break through the perfection of Qi training, and cannot be easily disturbed by others, while Lu Jingnan is tending a medicine field, contented, obviously quite satisfied with the current life...
"Blood River Dafa has just been completed, it's time to visit this Shanfang City, and more importantly, find a way to earn money. To cultivate green locusts, you need a lot of yellow bud rice. If you want to speed up your practice, you need elixir All of these require a lot of financial support."
Cao Cuo sighed, and was planning to go straight to Fangshi...
"Brother Cao! You have been in seclusion for three years. Seeing that your demeanor is more prosperous, it is obvious that you have improved in Taoism. Congratulations."
Fan Buchou was returning to the palace with the imperial weapon, and happened to see Cao Cuo who had left the pass, and flew to him to congratulate him.
Cao Cuo cupped his hands and thanked: "Thanks to the blessed land provided by Brother Fan, I got a little income and practiced a few spells."
Immortal cultivators retreat all year round, and everyone is used to it.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Fan Buchou asked:
"Brother Cao, are you going to go out?"
Cao Cuo said with a little embarrassment: "When I first came to Shoushanfang City, I entered Brother Fan's solar term building, and then retreated in Brother Fan's house for three years. I haven't gone out to visit this Shoushanfang City. Take a look at the scenery of Shoushan."
Fan Buchou smiled and said: "My Fan family has lived in Shoushan for generations, and I am most familiar with the scenery of Shoushan. Why don't you let me take Brother Cao to visit this mountain?"
"Then thank you, Brother Fan."
Cao Cuo was not hypocritical, and after thanking him, he used Fan Buchou's pot-shaped magic weapon.
"Brother Cao, where are you going?"
"I would like to buy a magic weapon that I can use and buy a few talisman inheritances. I wonder if Brother Fan has any recommendations?"
Cao Cuo has the [Blood River Treasure] and has some understanding of the world of cultivating immortals. The largest circulation of talisman money in the world of cultivating immortals is in the four arts of cultivating immortals: array, pill, tool, and talisman.
Among them, the threshold of the formation method is the highest, and the formation method needs the intersection of heaven and earth to form a self-enchanted barrier, and non-alchemy monks cannot arrange it; The atmosphere can control the talisman.
Cao Cuo's way is to make talismans. He is going to make a large number of talismans. As long as he learns a technique of making talismans, it is equivalent to learning the green locust under the symbiosis induction. A large number of talismans will be made, and the talisman money will be collected in his storage bag like running water...
"Brother Cao, do you want to learn how to make talismans?"
Fan Buchou heard the words and said with concern:
"Rong Fan would like to say one more thing. Although the four arts of formation, pill, device, and talisman can generate a lot of money after they are completed, the process of learning the art costs talisman money like running water, and it all depends on financial resources. So those formations Masters, alchemists, equipment masters, and talisman masters are mostly cultivated and supported by some big families or forces, this is not easy, you have to be prepared."
Fan Buchou knew that Cao Cuo was a casual cultivator with no background, so he specially reminded him in case he didn't know the difficulties.
"Don't worry, I have a certain share in the making of talismans, and I won't do things I'm not sure about."
"Brother Cao, as long as you have a bottom line, let's go to Jindingxuan in Yulinfang. There are seven largest shops in Twelve Links of Shoushan, and Jindingxuan has the best reputation among them."
Fan Buchou saw that Cao Cuo was sure, so he didn't say much, and directly set the destination.
......
The two of them came to Yulin Square, where the market is extremely prosperous. There are nearly a hundred shops in the whole city, selling all kinds of precious materials, origin stones, talisman pills...
Everything is available.
Jindingxuan is located in the downtown area of ??the square, shaped like a golden tripod, the store is simple and elegant, but the three-character plaque of Jindingxuan is radiant and eye-catching.
Cao Cuo took a look and found out that this plaque is actually a magic artifact with perfect restraint of 36 runes, worth hundreds of thousands of runes, which shows that the Jindingxuan has an amazing background.
If outsiders dare to make trouble here, they will be easily suppressed by this magic weapon.
As soon as you enter Jindingxuan, you will suddenly be enlightened, and the interior space is huge and well-arranged.
There are countless treasures, all of which are exquisite, and the two of them built a foundation and cultivated their skills, so they were directly invited to the second floor. The number of treasures on the second floor is only about [-]% of that on the first floor. .
"Meet two distinguished guests."
A shopkeeper in a brocade robe greeted him with a smile, greeted him a few words, and introduced his surname Shang. The shopkeeper Shang went straight to the point and asked, "What kind of treasures do you two want to see in this shop?"
Cao Cuo said directly: "Shopkeeper, I want to buy some good fire attribute talisman inheritance."
"Fire talisman-making inheritance? Two distinguished guests, wait a moment."
The shopkeeper received the customer's request, thought for a moment, took out a token, and seemed to be communicating with someone inside.
Before half an injection of incense, five maidservants, each holding a gold plate, stepped forward from a warehouse gate.
Each gold plate contains a page of gold books, with runes densely packed on them, and blocked by the golden light on the gold plate, it is hard to see clearly.
The shopkeeper introduced:
"Dear guest, please take a look, here are the five complete inheritances of fire talismans treasured in our shop!"
"The first one is called [Fire Crow Talisman]."
"This talisman can be turned into a fire crow, which can be remotely controlled to detonate and kill the enemy. The power is already impressive."
"The price is one thousand talismans"
"The second method is called [Five Fire Red Bead Talisman]."
"This talisman can turn into five fire balls, and the five red fire beads will be detonated at the same time, and the power is three times that of the Fire Crow Talisman."
"The price is [-] talismans."
"The third method is called [Fire-weary Talisman]."
"The detonation power of this talisman is nearly five times that of the Fire Crow Talisman, and it can be used in stacks, making the power even more terrifying."
"The price is six thousand talismans."
"The fourth way is called [Red Flame Taurus Talisman]."
"This talisman can turn into a red flaming golden bull and rush towards the enemy. The detonation power is ten times that of the fire crow talisman. Hundreds of them can be activated at the same time to form a fire bull array, a weapon of national warfare."
"The price is nine thousand talismans."
"The fifth way, it's called [Sword Talisman of Flame Sun]."
"This is a kind of sword talisman. The talisman can be transformed into a flying sword. Its detonation power is ten times that of the Fire Crow Talisman. It needs to be used in conjunction with the sword control technique and wears financial iron.
"The price is 1 talismans."
Fan Buchou's expression didn't change.
Cao Cuo was secretly stunned. The five fire talismans are all good things, but they are all too expensive.
With only [-] talismans left in his net worth, it is indeed a rare inheritance in the world of cultivating immortals.
It was a stroke of luck that I was able to get the blood river inheritance. In the entire Hejiazhuang, only the surname He had two ordinary inheritances.
After discussing the details of the inheritance of each talisman with the shopkeeper, Cao Cuo has made a decision.
Fan Buchou suddenly interjected: "Brother Cao, these talisman-making inheritances are good. The opportunity is rare. I have [-] talisman money here. I will lend you money first, so don't delay."
"Brother Fan, this..."
Cao Cuo hesitated for a moment, seeing the sincerity in the other party's eyes, he still took a bag of talisman money, and said concisely and solemnly: "Brother Fan, thank you very much!"
It is easy to repay the talisman money, but it is difficult to repay the favor, but for the great cause of talisman making, we can only owe it first.
Both Fan Buchou and Pei Donglai are worthy friends, if you hesitate too much, you will be too hypocritical.
With money in his hands, his thoughts became more. Cao Cuo asked: "Shopkeeper, do you still have the inheritance of the golden light talisman here?"
The shopkeeper said with a smile, "[Fire Raven Talisman], [Golden Light Talisman], and [Shenxing Talisman] are known as the Three Treasure Talismans in the world of cultivating immortals, and there are many users."
"The fire crow is the main attack, the golden light is the main body protection, and the gods are the main escape. This store has complete inheritance for sale."
"[Golden Light Talisman] is priced at [-] talismans for inheritance, and [Sacred Walking Talisman] is priced for [-] talismans for inheritance."
Cao Cuo nodded, he had seen both the Fire Crow Talisman and the Golden Light Talisman, but he had only heard of the Divine Movement Talisman, and the shopkeeper probably wanted to recommend it to him when he specifically mentioned it.
I plan to make talismans and sell them. The Sanbao talisman is used by the most people and is the most suitable. Cao Cuo made a decisive decision:
"Then take the [Fire Crow Talisman], [Golden Light Talisman], [Shenxing Talisman], and [Five-Fire Red Bead Talisman] for inheritance!"
Shopkeeper Shang called two more maidservants from the warehouse door, plus the original two stayed, and the other two retreated.
After playing a spell, the golden light on the gold plate disappeared, and the shopkeeper took out four pages of inheritance, respectfully handed it to Cao Cuo, and added:
"My dear guest, each of the four pages of the golden book can be comprehended three times. After the charm dissipates, it will be reduced to waste paper."
Cao Cuo is also roughly aware of this situation, and the inheritance secrets of [Nong Yan Gong] and [Natal Gu] were all abolished after he realized it once or twice.
Only the "Blood River Treasure" has been enlightened many times without losing its charm, so it is not surprising that the number of golden pages of this talisman making inheritance is lower.
Immediately after checking the inheritance, he paid [-] talismans.
Next is the magic weapon, Cao Cuo asked:
"I want to buy another fire-type knife-shaped middle-grade magic weapon, and the shopkeeper can recommend it to me."
The shopkeeper had just completed a transaction with a considerable amount of money, and it was obvious that the profit could be closed, so he patiently sent seven more saber-shaped artifacts for Cao Cuo to choose from.
Cao Cuo hesitated for a while, and chose a medium-grade magic weapon made of thousand-year-old fire lin wood: the fire lin knife.
Legend: Fire unicorn wood was born by drinking the blood of fire unicorn.The wood is extremely solid, not inferior to gold and iron.It has a little fire unicorn breath, and has the ability to deter evil things.
After this thousand-year-old spiritual wood is made into a knife shape, it can be divided into gold and jade, and the fire is extremely fierce when handling the knife.
The selling price of the Fire Lin Knife: [-] talismans.
"That's right, it's a precious knife."
Cao Cuo immediately finished refining the Huolin knife. Although it is a wooden knife, its weight is ten times heavier than an equivalent volume of gold.
After being driven freely, it can be used in conjunction with the flame making technique to add a little more power.
This is a superior weapon.
Although the bag was empty and there were only five hundred talismans left, but fortunately, there was finally a flying weapon that could be used to control the flight.
With the inheritance of the talisman in hand, Cao Cuo is not worried about not being able to repay the talisman money.
...
As soon as the two left Jindingxuan, Fan Buchou said enthusiastically:
"Brother Cao, the talisman-making inheritance has been obtained, shall we go to Longshifang to have a look and purchase some raw materials for spirit jade?"
Lingyu is the essence of jade, and Cao Cuo still has hundreds of pieces of Lingyu left when he practiced attacking jade fingers.
There is also a batch of source stones obtained from Shiling City, which can also produce a lot of jade essence, and the raw materials for making talismans in the early stage are not bad.
If you can go to the Stone League to withdraw it when you run out, Lu Qian should have prepared a lot for it.
"Stone Dragon Square?"
Cao Cuo also saw it, it seemed that Fan Buchou wanted to go, so he simply agreed:
"Brother Fan, although I already have a batch of talisman-making raw materials in my hand, I still need raw materials for the follow-up. I happen to have Brother Fan as my companion, so it would be nice to go to Dragonstone Workshop to see more."
Fan Buchou happily said:
"I, Lao Fan, usually have no other hobbies. The only thing I love is betting on stones."
"As soon as I went out with Brother Cao today, I felt lucky on a whim. I just wanted to go to Longshifang to try my luck. Brother Cao is my noble person. With you by my side, I will definitely gain something this time."
Cao Miss smiled, Pei Donglai and Fan Buchou are two best friends, one likes to gamble and the other likes to drink.
The two don't have the appearance of a fairy family, but they are both gentlemen, so it's no wonder that their relationship is so deep.
