"What, this thing costs five spirit stones, you might as well go and rob it!" Gong Zixuan couldn't help but yell, it seemed to her that this was simply a lie.
One spirit stone is equal to one hundred gold coins, one gold coin is equal to ten taels of silver, and five spirit stones are equal to five hundred gold coins, which is five thousand taels of silver. This thing is just a black stone, how can it be worth five thousand taels of silver?
Therefore, even Miss Gong Zixuan couldn't keep calm and stared in a state of disarray.
Compared with her excitement, Cheng Xiaoxiao's expression was natural and calm. She was communicating with the treasure-hunting mouse.
"What the hell is this, Xiao Jin, explain it clearly!"
The suspicious tone made the treasure-hunting mouse scream anxiously: "Squeak, squeak, squeak--"
After a series of cries, Cheng Xiaoxiao knew what they wanted to express. It was telling her not to let it go, as it was a good thing and it would be difficult to find it in the future.
Cheng Xiaoxiao thought about it for a while, and she decided to follow Xun Jinshu's advice. Five hundred gold coins were nothing to her. She looked up at the person in front of her and said, "Brother, can you tell me what this thing is? What does it do?"
"this--"
The shy senior brother scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly: "Junior brother, I don't know this thing either. I found it in a valley. I think it is extraordinary. If you like it, then I will sell it to you for four spirit stones."
"Oh, four spiritual stones——"
Cheng Xiaoxiao found it funny. She hadn't even bargained yet, but he took the initiative to lower the price.
"Don't buy it—" Gong Zixuan glanced at the black stone with disdain and said, "This thing is expensive, not to mention four spirit stones. I would say one spirit stone is expensive. Master Cheng, why do you want this thing? Let's go and have a look somewhere else."
"Brother Gong, don't worry—"
Cheng Xiaoxiao comforted the other person and then said to the man in front of him who was smiling, "Brother, this black stone is just something you picked up in the mountains. It is not worth such a high price, uh——"
Suddenly, Cheng Xiaoxiao thought of what her grandmother had said about the spiritual mine. She looked at the strange black stone and was secretly delighted. She asked, "Brother, where did you find this stone? Can you tell me where it is?"
"Brother, where are you going?"
The senior brother was stunned for a moment, "That place is quite far from here. I just went there without knowing where to go. Now I only know the general direction. If you want to go there, you can only find that place in the southern mountains of Fengling Country."
"Not in Dafeng?" This surprised Cheng Xiaoxiao.
"Yes, not in Dafeng Country!"
The senior brother looked at her with an unnatural expression on his face, and said shyly: "These black stones, although I don't know what they are, they are also what I exchanged for at the cost of my life, so -"
"I see!" Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded and understood why he sold this seemingly 'ordinary' stone at such a high price.
Gong Zixuan, who was standing next to them, heard their conversation, frowned slightly, and couldn't help asking, "Master Cheng, why are you asking about this?"
"Take it back and have a look first!" Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, looking at the shy boy in front of her, and said: "Is this senior brother a casual cultivator? Or -"
"Junior brother, I am a casual cultivator and I don't have many resources. I heard that many cultivators will come to the Central Plains Holy Land Auction. I just came here to try my luck and see if I can sell these things."
"Oh, since this is the case, Senior Brother, I have something to ask for your help. I hope you can agree. Don't worry, I won't let you help me for nothing. I will give you corresponding compensation!"
"Oh, what do you want me to do?"
"I won't tell you about this question for now!" Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled, took out a small bag, threw it at him, and said, "Here are 500 gold coins. I'll sell you your black stone. If you're willing to help, please wait here. I'll come to you when I leave Daling Town today. If you don't want to help, you don't have to wait for me. Just do whatever you want."
"this--"
"Senior Brother, see you in the afternoon!" Cheng Xiaoxiao did not give him a chance to speak. After putting away the black stone, she pulled Gong Zixuan away.
Gong Zixuan looked at her suspiciously and asked, "What's going on? You don't want to do anything, do you? Tell me, what's the good news?"
"Not sure yet, we'll tell you when the time comes!" Cheng Xiaoxiao shrugged and said indifferently.
"You must be hiding something from me. I think you want him to take you to find some treasure!"
"Brother Gong is so amazing. You know what I'm thinking."
"Stop talking nonsense here. Who knows what you are thinking?"
The two of them were bickering while looking at all kinds of weird and interesting things. Under the guidance of Xun Golden Rat, Cheng Xiaoxiao found a few more things, but she didn't know what they were yet.
As time passed, it was noon in a blink of an eye. The two of them felt their hungry stomachs and prepared to find a place to eat.
Walking towards the newly opened inn in front, this inn is a property under the name of the Central Plains Holy Land. As for who is managing it, Cheng Xiaoxiao has no idea.
When they appeared, they did not attract much attention. After all, people were coming and going these days, and all kinds of people appeared, so no one would pay too much attention to others.
"Go away! I'll give you ten gold coins. Don't sit here, go eat outside. I see you can't eat, go away now—"
An arrogant and presumptuous voice suddenly sounded, attracting everyone's attention. Even Cheng Xiaoxiao and Gong Zixuan, who had just come in to look for a table, couldn't help but look over.
There were two tables by the window. One of the tables was an extremely ordinary-looking young man, and the other was a young man wearing a brocade robe and a jade crown. He glared at the young man sitting opposite him with disgust.
Needless to say, he just wanted to drive the other party away.
Unexpectedly, the young man ignored the humiliation of the man in the brocade robe. Ten gold coins were shining on the table, but he was still concentrating on eating white rice, vegetables, and tofu, and he seemed to be eating very happily.
The scene in front of her made Cheng Xiaoxiao feel strange for some reason as if this person was not simple.
"Another scum!" Gong Zixuan glanced at the arrogant young master and gave an impolite comment.
Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "It's only natural that I look down on others because I have a good appearance."
"Humph, this kind of person, it's better to make him an ugly man, and see if he still acts arrogant!"
"Okay, it's just a small matter, let's find a place to sit down."
When they were about to find a place to sit down, the two people by the window started to make a noise again. The young man in a brocade robe swept the other person's food to the ground and shouted angrily: "Boy, you don't want to drink my toast, so you have to drink the penalty wine. Do you want to die?"
