Human beings are deceitful, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

Chapter 31
In Bai Shanghai's storage bag, there are——

Two or three changes of clothes;

A small tank of seemingly extraordinary Lingmi;

Three lumps of unknown animal meat;

Four scrolls intact;
pieces of silver and copper coins;
A small bag of Lingshi.

A set of needle-shaped instruments;
There are also many miscellaneous objects.

An Le looked at the things in the storage bag, feeling very excited.

"I got rich."

Although he traveled for a while, he had almost no contact with things related to serious immortal cultivators.

Not to mention spirit stones and magic tools, I haven't even touched copper coins.

The inside of Chenjia Village is closed and self-sufficient, and the transactions are basically done by barter.

This can also be seen from the [one poor and two white] that has never been eliminated on the panel.

Vulgar things such as gold and silver will not be mentioned for the time being.

The animal meat and Lingmi surprised Anle enough.

Lingmi is crystal clear and has distinct grains.

It contains strands of spiritual power, which is extremely extraordinary.

Unknown beast meat obviously does not come from ordinary beasts, and can provide more vitality and nutrition.

This solves the problem of Anle not being able to go hunting and lack of food.

With his current appetite, the old hunter really couldn't afford to hunt alone.

"It feels delicious."

An Le swallowed silently, temporarily suppressed the urge to eat, and then counted the spoils.

He took out a spirit stone.

It is not as smooth as imagined, but has edges and corners and a rough texture.

The spirit stone emitted a faint light in the dark tunnel.

Take a closer look, there seems to be some gray-black impurities in it.

"It turns out that this is the spirit stone."

"But it should be relatively low-level."

An Le had a good time playing it, but soon got tired of it.

He discovered that the spiritual power in the spirit stone cannot be directly absorbed by the human body.

It seems to be rejected by the body due to too many impurities.

Compared with consumables that act on the human body and replenish spiritual power, this spirit stone is more like a special mineral, which may be used to make magic circles and magic weapons, so it is used as currency.

"I just don't know, are there more or less spirit stones?"

With a thought, An Le put away the spirit stone, and took out another thing from the storage bag that he cared about from the beginning.

This is a set of nine needle-shaped instruments.

Each thin needle is about seven or eight centimeters long, slightly thicker than ordinary needles, and is milky white.

I don't know if it's made of metal or jade, but it's very dense.

An Le's eyes widened and he looked hard for a long time before he could barely see the fine magic circle engraved on the thin needle.

However, I can't understand it even if I see it clearly.

He tentatively input spiritual power.

Similar to the process of manipulating the storage bag just now, it was a little jerky at first, but soon lost resistance and became submissive and obedient.

A connection is vaguely constructed, making it a comfortable thing.

Wait until a certain amount of spiritual power is input.

The originally quiet nine jade needles trembled slightly and floated up, shining with a sharp dim light.

An Le's mind moved slightly, and the jade needle circled around beside him.

It's just that he hasn't mastered it yet, and accidentally, three jade needles pierced into the wall of the tunnel with a "chi" sound, and the resistance was extremely weak, as if piercing through thin paper.

It took him a lot of effort to take them out with his mind.

Looking at the three deep small holes beside her, An Le was enough to feel the power of this magic weapon.

"If it stabs someone..."

Just imagine that scene, An Le couldn't help but shudder.

"It hurts to think about it!"

An Le thought in her heart: "By the way, how can such a big man as Bai Shanghai use this magic weapon?"

"It matches his narrow-mindedness."

At first, Anle still disliked the style of jade needles, but after seeing its power, she no longer cared about it.

Practical is the most important thing.

An Le took back the jade needle until her spiritual power was almost exhausted, feeling a slight dull pain in her brain.

The power of this magic weapon is indeed not weak, but it also consumes a lot of spiritual power and mind.

Finally, An Le's eyes moved to the scrolls in the pile of debris, and her breathing was a little short.

He had a hunch that perhaps, they were the most valuable items in the storage bag.

The scroll is barely neat, and the paper is slightly wrinkled.

It can be seen that Bai Shanghai often read it during his lifetime.

The four volumes are:
"Purple Cloud Kung Fu"

"Code of Conduct for Ziyun Sect Disciples"

"Overview of Spiritual Beast Cultivation"

"Secrets in Fairy Zi Lian's Boudoir Two or Three"

An Le: "..."

The first three are not bad, they belong to the impression that a normal cultivator should have.

But this last one?
With the mentality of examining and criticizing, An Le opened the scroll and glanced at it casually.

"hiss……"

An Le was very surprised, the content and quality of the scroll was unexpectedly high.

It is very likely that some kind of technique was used to rub the picture directly on the paper, which is extremely exquisite, far from the rough picture he thought at first.

And Fairy Zi Lian's actions and demeanor...

No wonder there are so many glitches along the sides of this book.

As expected of a cultivator, he really knows how to play.

After tasting for a while, An Le forcibly looked away, hypnotizing herself in the bottom of her heart.

"Generally, nothing to see."

Now is not the time to relax.

Soon, An Le adjusted her mood.

He knew that the crisis was far from over.

Even without considering the monsters wandering outside the village, Tang Lan and the others have undoubtedly become his sworn enemies.

Even if Tang Lan didn't know that it was An Le who killed Bai Shanghai for the time being, they would never let him go when they learned the truth.

"We still have to keep getting stronger!"

An Le flipped through "Ziyun Gong" casually.

It is found that there are not many recorded contents, probably only the part of the Qi training stage.

Still, he was satisfied.

Anyway, "Purple Cloud Art" is a classic after all, maybe it can trigger the effect of "Tao follows nature" from it in the future?
"It's really a golden belt for murder and arson."

After counting the harvest, Anle couldn't help but sigh.

He felt that he had completed the accumulation of primitive capital all at once from a poor boy with nothing.

It is a small asset.

An Le glanced at the entries on the panel.

really.

[One poor and two white] I don't know when it will disappear.

******
at dusk.

The old Orion came to the tunnel again and found that Bai Shanghai's body had disappeared.

"I buried him."

An Le pointed to a distance away and explained.

It's not that he respects corpses and pays attention to burying them safely, but it's just that he feels a little uncomfortable living with corpses.

Moreover, as time passed, the smell of the corpse became more and more unpleasant.

Lin Shanbai expressed his understanding, and then said with a serious face.

"There's good news and two bad news."

"The good news is that Tang Lan and the others believed my words and believed that a monster took Bai Shanghai away."

"The bad news is that she still has suspicions and sent someone to watch our yard."

An Le had expected this, and was relatively calm.

"And what about the bad news?"

"They... have begun to investigate things related to monsters."

Hearing this, An Le was a little puzzled.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

If the cultivators were to deal with the monsters, wouldn't the villagers of Chenjia Village be saved?

Suddenly, An Le realized the crux of the problem.

"Tang Lan and the others... aren't monsters' opponents?"

　I'm in a bad mood, alas...
