Chapter 40: I have money to spend, come quickly!
"A bamboo stick and straw sandals are light, lighter than a horse, so who is afraid?
A raincoat and a straw hat to protect you throughout your life!
………Looking back at the desolate place, I return, neither wind nor rain, nor clear. "
Zhang Xiaochun hummed a song and walked with a bamboo sword on his back. He did not go to the rich cities, but went to the deep mountains and old forests. After he came down the mountain, he visited his parents in Heyang City and began to travel freely.
He has been in this world for many years. He has been staying in Cao Miao Village since he was a child. After becoming Zhang Xiaochun's apprentice, Tian Buyi was afraid that Zhang Xiaochun would have any accidents, so he kept him detained and could not leave Dazhu Peak at all.
Now that I finally have the opportunity, I must explore it carefully.
Moreover, the world of Zhu Xian is rich in resources, with many exotic beasts and rare treasures left in the world, and even some ancient mythical beasts have their bloodlines passed down.
I am short of resources!
Zhang Xiaochun's eyes lit up, just like a mouse entering a rice jar. If he didn't scoop everything out, how could he live up to his title of "the sky is three feet high and the earth is seven points thin"?
Uh-huh!
Uh-huh!
That's all!
The "Classic of Mountains and Seas: Overseas Southern Classic" says: "The Three-Pearl Tree is located to the north of Yanhuo, on the surface of the Red River. Its tree is like a cypress, and its leaves are all pearls. Some say that its tree is like a comet."
Originally, he just wanted to try his luck by the Red River in the south to see if he could run into his sixth senior brother Du Bishu. After all, it was there that Du Bishu discovered a thousand-year-old three-pearl tree.
As a result, Sixth Senior Brother was not found, but Zhang Xiaochun came across a Moon Pearl Tree, which was a spiritual root of heaven and earth and a variant of the Three Pearl Tree. It could draw in the moonlight from the moon and produce a total of twelve moon pearls. All of them were silver-white and each one was crystal clear, as if they had the ability to nourish the soul.
Zhang Xiaochun took it off, refined it with Thousand-Transformation Flowing Silver, and used the Divine Machine Hundred Refining Method to refine it into a space magic weapon. He strung it into a string of twelve beads and wore it on his hand as a protective treasure.
I have to say, it is very good to have a space magic tool with you when you go out. You can put anything in it without having to carry a bag or anything.
The world of Zhu Xian has some Taoist background, but there are very few space magic weapons, and there is not even such a concept. The fan of Fengyue Patriarch of Jieshi Mountain is somewhat interesting, but it is just a little bit interesting.
Generally speaking, cultivators carry their belongings with them, and Zhang Xiaochun's twelve pearls are considered the first of their kind.
In addition, there is Wind-Thunder Black Iron, an iron essence with the dual properties of wind and thunder. It is mined from a mine where wind and thunder are mixed and thunder rumbles day and night. It is considered a material for refining treasures.
Deep-sea marrow silver is the crystallization of silver ore obtained from under the South China Sea. As for how Zhang Xiaochun discovered it, we have to ask this street urchin what's wrong with his brain.
No matter how remote the place is, or how few people there are, he will just go there like a rat. Can he say that he has inherited the treasure-hunting rat characteristics of the original?
When I was playing Genshin Impact in my previous life, the planners were so inhumane that the rewards were placed in very remote places. Subconsciously, I always felt that there would be good things in some remote places.
However, Zhang Xiaochun was lucky and still had some gains. To be honest, it would be difficult to refine a Nine Heavens Divine Weapon with these!
However, I can still refine one or two decent magic weapons.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiaochun was calm and not in a hurry, so he could look for it slowly. At worst, he could wait until the day of his return was closer and then go to Kongsang Mountain to refine the magic weapon he had already planned.
Zhang Xiaochun hummed a song leisurely as he walked onto the official road. Not only did the road become wider, but more and more people came. He asked passers-by on the road for the direction of the road, then walked north and took a small road, heading towards a remote area.
After all, after staying in the south for a long time, you still need to go to the northern ice field.
How does the saying go: The world is so big, I want to see it!
Zhang Xiaochun had been traveling for half a day and felt a little hungry, so he hunted a rabbit, grilled it, sprinkled it with secret spices, and sat down to rest.
Just as he was humming a song and roasting a rabbit, a gentle voice suddenly sounded. It was actually a middle-aged scholar.
"The lyrics you sang are quite free and easy, but I don't know which school you belong to to have such a talented person!"
Zhang Xiaochun ignored him and just raised his eyes. As the saying goes, eating is the most important thing in the world, and now even if the king of heaven comes, don't think of disturbing him while he is eating.
Obviously, the arrival of the person in front of him was not as important as the rabbit in his hand.
The middle-aged scholar's mouth twitched slightly at Zhang Xiaochun's reaction. He stood in front of him, lowered his body and asked again: "I am also a little hungry in my stomach. I wonder if you can give me some?"
Only then did Zhang Xiaochun look at him straight in the eye.
He has thin eyebrows and a square face, and his features look elegant, but his eyes are bright and his forehead is full, yet in this elegance he has an aura of majesty without being angry. He is wearing a Confucian robe and has a lavender jade pendant on his waist, which is exquisite and translucent, with a faint aura of auspiciousness. One can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary item.
An idea immediately popped up in Zhang Xiaochun's mind: "The rich dog can be slaughtered!"
He put the rabbit to his nose and sniffed it. It was cooked. Then he frowned, broke off a rabbit leg with reluctance and handed it to the middle-aged scholar.
"Uncle, eat!"
After saying that, he concentrated on dealing with the rabbit in front of him.
"Uncle?"
The middle-aged scholar was stunned for a moment, then smiled. It was the first time someone called him that. He took the rabbit leg and looked at Zhang Xiaochun. Who would have thought that the handsome boy would eat in such a savage way? A simple and straightforward aura came over him, and he felt that the boy was very interesting.
After both of them finished eating.
Zhang Xiaochun said, "Sincerely, ten taels of gold!"
"Cough cough!"
The middle-aged scholar was so shocked by Zhang Xiaochun's sudden offer that he almost spat out the meat in his mouth.
"I still have to pay for this rabbit leg?"
"Look at what you said. You don't have to pay for anything you eat. This rabbit leg is made with my own secret recipe. The spices on it are unique in the world. As the saying goes, rare goods are valuable. I'll charge you ten taels of gold. It's really not expensive!"
"Ten taels of gold? My friend, your rabbit leg is probably made of gold. Even if it is made of gold, what I ate just now is not ten taels!" the middle-aged scholar exclaimed in surprise.
"At this price, now that it's already in your stomach, it's too late to regret." Zhang Xiaochun said with a playful look.
The middle-aged scholar suddenly regretted his previous evaluation. This boy was not a simple and honest boy at all, he was clearly a profiteer!
He is the one who has been cheated of money, but he doesn’t even look at who he is!
"What if I don't want to give this money?"
His eyes flashed with a fierce look, and his aura of majesty without anger became more and more obvious, and there was a faint dark spiritual power flowing.
Zhang Xiaochun held his chin with one hand, his expression completely unnerved, and said with a smile: "You ate my meal but didn't pay, which is like beating up the cook after the meal, which is not good!"
"Breaking the rules!"
"Oh, what rules?"
"Killing someone means paying with your life, and debts mean paying with your money. Since you don't want to pay, then just leave your life behind!"
"Ten thousand people are coming!"
Zhang Xiaochun spoke word by word.
