“Trouble!”
The man mumbled something, but Zhao Wu didn’t hear it clearly and looked at him blankly.
The pharmacist glared at the clerk, opened the stone box, and squinted his eyes to examine it carefully. This is a relatively long process, and Zhao Wu has the patience and confidence. There is no doubt that there are a thousand shrimp beetles of good quality in the stone box, and in order to cope with the “routine exploitation” in the store, there are even an extra hundred or so in the stone box, so it should be foolproof. .
The store was silent for a while, but the waiter next to him had already come in and out countless times. The last time, under the command of the pharmacist, he ran to the back hall to get the most critical item in Zhao Wu’s transaction: the Sanyang Talisman Sword!
The clerk placed the box containing the sword on the counter for Zhao Wu to inspect. Although Zhao Wu knew nothing about this and did not believe that the huge Bai Ri Mansion would trick him with fakes, the matter was so important that he just opened the box and carefully observed the sword body and the craftsman’s nameplate attached. Stuff it all inside.
After a long while, Zhao Wu closed the box and all the procedures were completed. His hands were shaking a little, but he still stuffed the foot-long box into the backpack he had prepared, turned around and left. The waiter behind him coughed and reminded: “Be careful, this sword is enough to buy a garden in Xincheng!”
Zhao Wu staggered. Fortunately, he was mentally prepared. He did not dare to have any greedy thoughts. He hurried out and did not go back to the lower city. Instead, he continued to move forward and rushed towards the place promised by his employer. .
The store clerk at the back followed him out of the store. When he saw him running away, Fang patted his lapel, turned around and entered the store. Not far away, when two men in short clothes saw his action, they walked out of the shade and followed Zhao Wu.
Zhao Wu was unaware of what happened next. He excitedly went to the famous Guangfu Street in the new city. He found the first Ruguilou store on the street. He went to the counter and looked for the shopkeeper. He just said a few words. , the two of them exchanged numbers. Zhao Wu put the box containing the sword and the backpack on the counter. The shopkeeper took out the twelve taels of gold that had been prepared and stuffed it into his hand with envy on his face.
Zhao Wu came to the street like a sleepwalker. Is this the end? With ten taels of gold, he will get his expenses for the next five years? The street was bustling with people, and no one paid attention to the helper with straight eyes. Only the two men following him from a distance stared at him with extremely helpless expressions on their faces.
The two men did not delay, and soon separated one person and entered the building.
The shopkeeper here put away the backpack, and regardless of what was in it, he called a waiter and asked him to take this thing and hand it to the guest in Room 5 of Xuanzi. After the waiter left, the man who was following behind followed him and asked about what happened just now. His words also hinted at the distinguished status of the master.
The shopkeeper was very happy and could not stop talking. And by the way, he told the man that room No. 5 Xuanzi was reserved by Xiaoqi, a free man in the city, and paid for the room for two days in advance.
Hearing this, the man’s face turned blue. Just as the guy who delivered the backpack came back, he pulled him over and asked. As expected, the man said that no one was in the room and the door was unlocked. He just left a note asking him to put his backpack on the table.
The man rushed in immediately after hearing the words, and returned to the hall after a while, watching the flow of people in and out with wide eyes. But he soon gave up his efforts. Rugui Building was a place where food and accommodation were integrated, and it was lunch time. People were coming and going, coming in and out all the time. God knows which target was it?
Outside the door, his companion happened to poke his head over. The two looked at each other, both looking downcast.
When the man he was following was walking back listlessly, he found the Fu’an Inn across the street from Rugui Tower. In Tianzi’s upper room, Yu Ci sat down with a smile. In front of him, four Sanyang Talisman Swords were neatly placed on the table, waiting for him to inspect.
The appearance of the Sanyang Talisman Sword is similar to that of the Nine Yang Talisman Sword. At least they are made of wood, and they also have unknown vermilion spirits smeared on the talisman. The difference is only in the complexity and simplicity of the talisman. This point creates a huge difference in power between the two.
As he saw, the power of the Sanyang Talisman Sword can be regarded as a magical weapon according to ordinary people’s thinking. The condensed flame sword has advantages that ordinary metal swords cannot match. It is indeed worth a thousand gold. This point Come on, Bai Ri Mansion is not a scam. But compared to the Nine Sun Talisman Sword, both in terms of lethality and the strength of the flame sword, there is still a long way to go.
He also used the sword made of flames to injure the enemy. He once used the Nine-Yang Talisman Sword to cut the hand of the poisonous snake monk and kill him. But if he replaced the Three-Yang Talisman Sword, I am afraid that the flame sword would The blade is about to be crushed by the monk’s bare hands, this is where the difference lies.
Now, the Nine-Yang Talisman Sword has been evaporated when fighting against ghosts and beasts. Yu Ci needs a sword that fits his hand, so he also has some experience with the higher-level “Pure Yang Talisman Sword”. Expectations. Unfortunately, even if he had the full set of procedures for making the Chunyang Talisman Sword, it would still require a relatively long process, and he did not have the time for the time being.
Now, what Yu Ci is really interested in and devotes a lot of energy to is something more interesting.
Changing to a more comfortable position, he opened the Illuminating Picture, settled his thoughts into it in a familiar way, and found the target. The picture clearly shows that the two men who were being followed timidly entered the store and accepted the reprimand from the owner. Yu Ci picked up the cup on the table with a smile, and took a sip without caring about the taste of the cold tea inside. It was extremely refreshing.
The Bai Ri Mansion family has a big business, and a few Sanyang Talisman Swords are nothing, but a total of four thousand good-quality shrimp beetles are quite remarkable things. Ruo Yuci took them out all at once. , must attract attention, so Yu Ci spent some effort, divided it three times, and used three methods to obtain these four Sanyang Talisman Swords.
The first time the handle was changed, the steward of Bai Ri Mansion was just a little surprised; the second time he suddenly changed two handles at once, he felt something was wrong; when the fourth handle was replaced today, it was not It was a question of whether he was surprised or not, but he was completely teased. In particular, although Yu Ci’s return methods are different, they have the same characteristic, which is to find helpers in the city to sell them. In this off-season for buying shrimp grass, it is really eye-catching.
Even if Bai Ri Mansion has the best patience, it can’t bear this. This time, it directly sent people to follow, trying to find out the details of Yu Ci. Unfortunately, under Yu Ci’s successive arrangements, and more importantly, Under the miraculous function of the Illuminating God Picture, it can only get dizzy and return without success.
Yu Ci’s original intention in doing this was of course to be cautious. But it must be admitted that he could have done it more concisely and low-key, without involving so many links in the middle, and the effect might have been better, and it would not have indirectly constituted a provocation to Bai Ri Mansion like it did now.
The reason for this situation is purely due to his bad taste.
Ever since he developed the function of the Illuminating Bronze Mirror and used it many times, Yu Ci has learned to taste the marrow and has unknowingly contracted this problem.
How could he not catch this disease?
Putting away the four talisman swords, Yu Ci moved the Illumination Picture to the most comfortable position directly in front of him, and then changed it to the most macroscopic perspective. In an instant, the thoughts that settled into it seemed to have wings and fly high into the sky. Under the lingering clouds, the majestic giant city showed its true face with almost no reservations.
The cliff city was built according to the mountains on both sides. One side is Danya, the back of the cliff is a smooth mirror-like cliff, and the northeast is the gentle **** carrying the city. When it was first built, the city was the cliff, and the cliff was the city. One and the same, regardless of each other. But after hundreds of thousands of years of development, the city has extended along the gentle **** to the entire basin, and has been expanding to the northeast. At this time, it has been connected with the remaining veins of the Duanjie Mountain. It forms an overall long and narrow, but extremely majestic mountain city.
The rain that just fell flows down from the mountains on both sides, collects into the city lake in the central basin, and then flows to the southeast along the artificially dug river, forming a spectacular waterfall on a ten-mile **** outside the city, and merges into the lake surrounding the city. Bahe.
Such a grand and intuitive impression, even local residents who have lived in the city for decades would find it difficult to have a similar concept.
But that’s not all!
In Yu Ci’s eyes, in the magnificent city, there are rows of huts and courtyards, and hundreds of thousands of people are as dense as ants. Regardless of men, women, old or young, rich or poor, high or low, masters, heroes, monks or immortals, all are taking pictures of the gods. The reflection is clear and clear. As for the high-rise compound, the secret room and the mechanism, they are all in name only. The activities and deeds of countless people, the joys and sorrows of countless people change all the time, but no matter how they change, they are all visible at a glance, and there is no privacy for him.
At this time, he was the **** above the city, holding the huge city and hundreds of thousands of people in his palms. Such experiences always made Yu Ci intoxicated, and made him truly feel that he had reached a higher level.
Visions determine the mind, and the mind determines the achievements. While others are still worrying about the small gains in front of them, Yu Ci already has a grand vision that is a hundred times, a thousand times, or ten thousand times beyond that of ordinary people. This is destined to lead him. The goals pursued are far beyond ordinary people’s imagination and beyond the scope of the world.
And he knew very well that the rise in level was closely linked to the improvement in his cultivation. Without a breakthrough in the realm of spirituality, all of this would never come true.
Eternal life and cultivation are really the most correct choices he has made in his life!
Yu Ci “stands” in mid-air and changes the direction of his attention. If he were to choose what he was most interested in in this cliff city, it would undoubtedly be the “upper city” built on Danya, or to put it more directly, Bairi Mansion itself.
At this moment, he did not move, and the cliff city started to move.
The flow of people rushed through the house like a flood, and then stopped suddenly the next moment. At this time, the scene had changed. Danya, where Bairi Mansion was located, was like a giant beast under the clouds, crouching in front of him.
Yu Ci’s thoughts were reflected, like a ghost, walking through the doors. He did not locate it directly, but let his mind float in it. This immersive feeling is undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment. Nowadays, his biggest hobby every day is to observe every move of the people in Bai Ri’s house through the divine pictures. There was no malicious intent here, and of course, he was not prepared to obtain Bairi Mansion’s permission in advance.
