"I have never admired anyone in my life, the most convincing thing is Xueba, I originally thought that the transaction you made should at least be the kind where the sky and the earth change color, and the sun and the moon are dark, who knew that you actually came over to play with mud" Gu Shen's eyes suddenly pointed at a tattered clay sculpture on the stall and roared wildly, okay, in fact, what Meng Xiao wanted had nothing to do with him.
But now Meng Xiao traded with this peddler to pay for the medicinal materials he got from the Radiant Pig This can't be endured, because of this little medicinal material, Meng Xiao has been hungry for him all night, is it possible that he is not as good as a tattered clay sculpture Fortunately, Gu Shen kept a heart and didn't say this, otherwise it was very likely that he would have received a positive answer.
Meng Xiao completely ignored Gu Shen's roar and directly handed over the cloth bag containing the medicinal herbs to the vendor, a down-and-out uncle from another city.
The dark and deep-set eyes looked extremely depressed, and it was only when he saw the cloth bag that a burst of excitement shot out of his eyes.
This uncle and Meng Xiao met three days ago, the uncle's son was bitten by a fierce beast when he was hunting in the mountains, and the germs were infected through the wound so that the high fever did not go away.
The uncle is an ordinary fisherman, and he usually fishes for a living, so naturally he doesn't have much money to treat his children.
Fortunately, thanks to the guidance of a kind doctor, I knew that the medicinal materials on the Radiant Pig had a miraculous effect on external injuries and infections, so I came here to try my luck.
It's just that although this uncle read a lot of information about the Bright Pig when he came, the content of the book is dead, and the Bright Pig is notoriously clever, and it is naturally impossible to succeed in copying the old method, so after returning back many times in vain, he became more and more anxious.
The auspicious villagers are simple, a long-term lingering foreigner naturally has also gotten everyone's attention, when he learned of the uncle's difficulties, there are well-wishers to give him ideas, there are many experienced hunters here, as long as they can let them shoot, the sparkling pig will naturally come to the rescue.
This uncle believed it, there were indeed a few people in Jixiang Village who could catch the sparkling pig, except for Meng Xiao, but he forgot that there is no free lunch in the world, maybe he can get guidance by relying on mercy, but why do hunters spend time and energy doing things that are not beneficial to themselves If the anxious uncle had extra spare money, where would he come to find the sparkling pig, so he set up a stall and sold his own soul equipment Speaking of the soul device, although this kind of thing is a companion thing, but if others want to use it, there are many ways, the simplest is of course to kill people and drop treasures, followed by borrowing, and there is also a kind of giving up the power of the soul device in this world based on the cycle of life and death, and losing the soul tool is equivalent to losing the possibility of becoming stronger.
If you are lucky, you will not be able to make any progress in a serious illness, and if you are unlucky, you will die in order to save your son, and this uncle will also let go It's just a pity that this uncle's soul tool is a small fishing boat, and the surrounding area of Jixiang Village is either mountains or forests, and the only place where there is water is the well at the entrance of the village, so the hunters are not interested in that thing at all.
As for the other goods that are put on display, they are not of much value, and they are not even enough for the hunters to eat a few meals.
And at this time, Meng Xiao took a fancy to a palm-sized tattered clay sculpture among the commodities, and therefore had the fate of Gu Shen and Meng Xiao meeting.
"After I go back, apply it evenly to the wound, and at the same time leave a part of the hot water to take it, about three days" Meng Xiao bent down and picked up the clay sculpture on the stall, and put it into his arms very casually, looking at the down-and-out uncle like a treasure, he didn't bother and turned to leave.
"The son is a great grace, and the villain Qiao Shan will never forget" Meng Xiao waved his hand casually when he heard the cry behind him, and walked home without looking back, the neighbors on both sides of the street smiled heartily when they saw this scene, in their hearts, Meng Xiao was a good young man who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside "Okay, okay, there are no outsiders around, what kind of treasure is that?"
Meng Xiao looked at him with strange eyes, "How do you know this is a baby?"
"You didn't even look back and walked away, it seems that you are pretending to be forced, but you are actually afraid that people will regret it, do you think I can't see it" Gu Shen pouted.
Meng Xiao shook his head with a smile, "It seems that I am still not calm enough, I can make myself excited like this by picking up a big leak, and I should improve it in the future" As he spoke, he took out the clay sculpture from his arms and handed it to Gu Shen.
Gu Shen took it and looked up and down, but it was rusty, no matter how he looked at it, it was an ordinary clay sculpture, and he couldn't help but look at Meng Xiao suspiciously, "Are you looking away, this is simply a tattere?"
Meng Xiao smiled for a while: "This is the gap between us, I can pick up others but can't." ” Gu Shen thought for a moment and suddenly said: "I'm also stupid, how can a clay sculpture have rust stains" said and wiped the rust vigorously, and found that under the dirty appearance, it turned out to be a golden statue "Aha, you guy really has good eyesight, this is a golden statue, this time you have made a lot of money" Gu Shen laughed and threw the golden statue back to Meng Xiao, thinking that he had found the reason, who knew that Meng Xiao rolled his eyes, took the golden statue and slapped it on his head, "It seems that you are really good, you don't know such basic common sense." ” "Theoretically, as long as it is metal, it will rust, but gold and silver are different from ordinary copper and iron, they rust very slowly and are not as exaggerated as copper and iron, most of them are just surface discoloration.
How long does it take for a golden statue to be placed to rust into this virtue for hundreds of years" Meng Xiao snorted with disdain on his face, and it was difficult to talk to the illiterate.
The corners of Gu Shen's mouth twitched, "Uh, I know, it's just to tease you, to see if you have a solid grasp of this knowledge." ” Meng Xiao didn't bother to pay attention to him, and explained again: "That Uncle Qiao Shan knew that the gold would not rust into such a broken appearance, so he didn't think about it, otherwise he wouldn't have been picked up by me."
And there is only one reason why a statue that looks like gold can be rusted like this, and that is that the treasure is self-obscure."
"Treasure" Gu Shen took the golden statue again, and the spiritual power in his palm spit lightly, but it was like a mud cow entering the sea without even splashing a splash, "Hey, this is a soul tool" Meng Xiao took the golden statue and snorted unhappily: "The soul tool has no self-obscure function, if I am not mistaken, this should be a soul treasure."
"Soul treasure, you have made a lot of money this time, in the capital, even a soul treasure that has entered the realm of the Dao can buy more than a dozen auspicious villages" Gu Shen looked at the golden statue with envy.
"There is no way to do this, once every strong person enters the Dao, the soul tool will evolve into a soul treasure.
And once the owner is dead, the soul treasure will be obscured as if it were in tatters.
As for whether you can see the preciousness of the soul treasure, it all depends on your personal eyesight, that Uncle Qiao Shan himself does not have this eyesight, nor does he have the strength to protect the soul treasure, so it is a good thing to sell this golden statue to cure the disease. ” Gu Shen nodded approvingly when he heard this, "I am deeply touched by the fact that Pifu is not guilty and is guilty, if I hadn't awakened the Qiankun Mirror, I wouldn't have been hunted down so miserably." ” Meng Xiao looked at him and persuaded: "Fortunately, you have come to the end of your hardships, as long as you are honest and honest in Kyoto, it is estimated that no one will be able to kill you under the protection of the top ten masters."
Gu Shen smiled bitterly when he heard this, "It would be nice if things were really that simple."
Meng Xiao looked at him with an unspeakable look on his face, but he no longer persuaded him, mainly because he didn't want to get involved in the struggle of the upper echelons, "It's always good to be cautious, sometimes it's happier to let go."
Alright, I'll make you some dry food tomorrow so I can take you on your way," he said, walking towards the kitchen.
Gu Shen looked at Meng Xiao's back, and suddenly felt a little envious, not envious of his luck and using a little medicinal herb to exchange for a spiritual treasure, but envy of his indifference, his calmness.
Deep in the whirlpool of power in Kyoto, even the identity of the mirror master is difficult to escape alone.
Why did the fourth brother and the starling die, if he remembered correctly, in addition to them, there were several collateral brothers and sisters who also had the Qiankun Mirror.
Although most of them have already handed over the Qiankun Mirror to the fourth brother and starling, aren't there still those who have not been handed over, and now that the Qiankun Mirror is complete, they must be more than lucky Everything seemed too delicate, and when he returned to the capital and entered the Hanging Mirror Division, the first thing he would do was to figure out the cause and effect of this matter Meng Xiao, who entered the kitchen, didn't touch Xiao Qi again, and it seemed that Xiao Qi's IQ was also on the line, and he no longer always followed the back of his ass and yelled that he was hungry.
Put the kneaded dough in a small basin and let it stand, planning to make a few drawers of steamed buns for Gu Shen and them to eat on the way.
Looking at the basin, I unconsciously recalled what happened that day and night.
His life was too peaceful, like a stagnant lake, reflecting layers of light in the moonlight.
Gu Shen's arrival was like a gale, which set off waves several feet high in the water of this lake However, no matter how high the waves and how strong the wind is, there will always be a day when it sets, and tomorrow Gu Shen and the others will leave, and his life will return to peace.
In the future, he will probably follow his mother's career and become a teacher, or further become the most famous gentleman in the nearby city and countryside.
Then with this fame, there will be a matchmaker who will introduce a beautiful girl to him.
Married, had children, and then his children continued to study, continue to be a teacher, if lucky, maybe a hundred years later, their family can become a famous scholarly family nearby, and if you are unlucky, one or two unfilial children and grandchildren may do other livelihoods.
That's probably his life When the basin overturned, Meng Xiao subconsciously stretched out his leg and kicked it on the table, and the basin bounced twice on the ground and fell out, "It's too careless, or, is it a little unwilling?"
Meng Xiao muttered to himself, kneading the dough again, as if he was about to crush the chaotic mood into ashes. t1706231537:
