Siheyuan: a hole in the sky

Chapter 450 Bronze Man (first update, please subscribe!)

Sticks and the others have Zhou Jianguo's milk full of life spirit liquid, as well as some vegetables and meat, so their bodies have sufficient energy to ensure their daily practice.

Moreover, where Zhou Jianguo is, because of the influence of the Dongtian Orb, the spiritual energy will be more than ten times stronger than other places. These spiritual energy will also be continuously absorbed by their bodies when they practice, so they have enough Energy is used for cultivation.

To be honest, if Zhou Jianguo stayed in the courtyard for more than ten or twenty years, and did not absorb the aura in the courtyard, the courtyard would really become a paradise-like existence, and the effect of cultivation would be stronger than it is now Hundreds of times.

There are too many places for warriors to spend money, so many warriors are actually poor. Why do casual cultivators in the cultivation world want to join Jinyiwei so much? The biggest reason is the treatment in Jinyiwei.

As long as they join Jinyiwei, not only can they get a high salary, but at the same time, Jinyiwei will also distribute a certain amount of training resources every month. The higher your strength, the more training resources you get, and the higher the salary.

This is Jin Yiwei's money offensive. Many warriors actually know it well, saying that they will not be tempted by Jin Yiwei's high salary, but when Jin Yiwei really comes to them, they become "true fragrance theorem" one by one!
Lightning Strike Wood is indeed very good, but the price is too high, and ordinary warriors really can't afford it, and even if they buy it, they don't need to buy one by one, at most, the length of the arm is almost enough.

Few people bought it, the amount of purchase was small, and the stock was quite considerable. No, Zhou Jianguo bought nearly [-] square meters of lightning strike wood this time, and all of them were high-grade lightning strike wood.

A hundred years of lightning strikes wood has no place in Zhou Jianguo's place.

Of the lightning strike wood he bought, half of them were lightning strike wood of the thousand-year-old nature, one-third was lightning strike wood of fifteen or six hundred years old, and finally nearly one-fifth was directly lightning strike wood of more than three thousand years old.

It can be said that Zhou Jianguo reaped a lot this time.

Zhou Jianguo bought so many lightning strike wood because he has tested that lightning strike wood also has a strong restraining effect on evil spirits, and the older the lightning strike wood, the stronger the restraint effect on evil spirits.

Oh, you said why other warriors didn't discover this, logically speaking, they should also be able to discover this.

In fact, there are indeed people who are researching the effect of lightning strike wood on evil spirits. No one is a fool. After roughly knowing the Yin nature of evil spirits, the cultivation world and Jin Yiwei are all researching what is the nemesis of evil spirits. Wood is in it.

It's just a pity that the lightning power inside the Lightning Strike Wood is difficult to guide. Various sects and aristocratic families have tried many times, but they just can't guide the lightning power inside.

Moreover, the threat of evil spirits has only recently appeared, and many people have no time to react. How can they think about whether the lightning strike wood can restrain the evil spirit? Therefore, the price of the lightning strike wood on the market is still the previous price, unlike It is gold, which has now risen to hundreds of times what it used to be.

However, I believe that after Zhou Jianguo uses the Lightning Strike Wood to create a magic weapon to restrain evil spirits, the price of the Lightning Strike Wood will also soar. Therefore, Zhou Jianguo is going to take advantage of this spare time to buy as many high-level Lightning Strike Wood as possible.

Zhou Jianguo was not interested in the middle and low-level lightning strike wood. Besides, he had to leave some lightning strike wood for others, didn't he?

Of course, there is no need for Zhou Jianguo to worry about these things now, Ye Qing and the others can handle these things well.

After Zhou Jianguo handed over this matter to Ye Qing and the others, he embarked on the journey of picking up leaks again.

For these stalls on the side of the street, as well as the facades, he would take a second look. As long as his cave orb did not send out the corresponding "good news", Zhou Jianguo would leave here immediately and go to the next house.

However, Zhou Jianguo would still choose to buy some rare antiques if he found them.

For example, Zhou Jianguo bought more than [-] ancient paintings in one of the facades. Eight of these ancient paintings belonged to Tang Bohu, six were to Wen Zhengming, five were to Xu Wei, and seven were to Qiu Ying. An extremely famous painter's work in the Ming Dynasty.

Although the price of buying them now is not low, at least six to seven hundred yuan for one piece, and two to three thousand yuan for a large one, Zhou Jianguo doesn't feel bad at all.

Not to mention these paintings, the value itself is here. Just wait for forty or fifty years later, the value of each of these paintings will not be less than sixty to seventy million. The start of a large format is a small goal, so, even if It is a lot of money to spend now, but Zhou Jianguo is still secretly happy in his heart.

He will never lose money, but will make a lot of money.

Because of the help of Dongtian Baozhu, all the antiques in Zhou Jianguo’s eyes have no secrets, no matter whether they are true or false, or the age, they are all under his control, and because of this, he has completely become an alternative in the market. .

When others buy antiques, they are careful and careful, and they will not buy it easily without looking at it a dozen times, but when it comes to Zhou Jianguo, all this has changed. He seems to come here to buy goods. Look at it, take it all away with a big wave of your hand, and the price is just right on your pain point, which makes many bosses feel happy and want to scold their mothers.

There is no way, with the orb in hand, apart from the story contained in this antique, Zhou Jianguo has no secrets about it.

Of course, while buying some antiques that he saw, Zhou Jianguo would not forget the main purpose of coming here today, to pick up the missing ones. (Let Liu Sanpao take all the antiques he bought.)
After walking around for another ten minutes, Zhou Jianguo's eyes were the same, and he stopped walking. He looked down at the nine items, or a set of items, on the booth on the left. The colleague showed Zhou Jianguo the true face of this set of things, and Zhou Jianguo's eyes turned red when he saw it. He was going to order this set of things.

So what exactly is this set of things?

Very simple, this is a set of bronze figures, here are nine such bronze figures, each of which is about ten centimeters high, nine bronze figures, each of which is a set of moves, nine, nine sets, It happened to be the boxing move of Arhat Boxing.

Coupled with the meridians and acupoints on their bodies, which are obviously heart formulas, and the previous moves and routines, these nine bronze figures are a complete set of Luohanquan.

These alone are enough to attract people. No, in front of Zhou Jianguo, there are several customers who are also looking at this set of bronze figures. One of them is obviously interested and wants to buy it, but it is directly bought by the boss. The sky-high price scared off.

The boss did not sell these nine bronze figures separately, but sold them as a whole. One bronze figure cost [-] yuan, and nine bronze figures cost [-] yuan in total.

The man was quite dissatisfied, one was one thousand, nine was nine thousand, why was it ten thousand?

The boss said directly, ten thousand is the price of Arhat Boxing, if you want to buy it, it is ten thousand.

In the end, the person who asked the price left with a resentful face. It is not certain whether the Arhat Fist on the nine bronze figures is real, and the price of [-] yuan is really too expensive, so this person Only leave with regret on his face.

Zhou Jianguo knew this well, the Arhat Fist on this set of bronze figures was indeed real, and no one else had time to distinguish it (the boss only showed it for a minute, fearing that someone would write down the Arhat Fist on it), but , Zhou Jianguo's spiritual power has long copied this set of Arhat boxing, so the greatest value of this set of Arhat bronze figures no longer exists in Zhou Jianguo's place.

The reason why Zhou Jianguo stayed is because these things are superficial things. In fact, these nine bronze figures have even bigger secrets.

Of these nine bronze figures, one centimeter of the surface is indeed made of copper, but the ones behind are not copper, but genuine fine gold.

There are nine bronze figures, each of which weighs about thirty catties, one-third of which is copper, and the rest is fine gold. pure gold.

Nine bronze men, that is nearly one hundred and eighty catties of fine gold.

This is pure gold, not gold. After Zhou Jianguo knew that there was so much pure gold in the nine bronze figures, could his eyes not be red?

To put it bluntly, when Dongtian Baozhu 'told' him the real details of these bronze men, for a moment, Zhou Jianguo wanted to grab it directly.

This is one hundred and eighty catties of refined gold. Calculated in terms of gold, one hundred catties of gold can be refined to at most one catty of refined gold, and that one hundred and eighty catties of refined gold requires at least nearly [-] catties of gold to refine , if it is converted into tons, that is a full ten tons of gold.

In addition, the price of gold has soared hundreds of times now, and the value in it is really unimaginable. No wonder Zhou Jianguo's eyes turned red when he first learned the secrets of these bronze figures.

"Huh!" Zhou Jianguo let out a long breath, and the impulse in his heart was suppressed.

"I was thinking about where to get some fine gold, but I didn't expect to meet so much fine gold here. It seems that I am indeed a child of God!" Zhou Jianguo said with a smile.

"The Shaolin Temple is indeed rich. It seems that I have to go to the Shaolin Temple to 'walk around' in the future and help them solve the 'greedy precepts'. Monks should have nothing to do with all things. I should let myself, an ordinary person, help them bear the money and so on."

Thinking of this, Zhou Jianguo's eyes turned red again. There is so much fine gold hidden in the nine bronze figures, so is there more fine gold hidden in Shaolin Temple? Zhou Jianguo is going to help Shaolin Temple reduce their 'burden' .

The Shaolin Temple is absolutely out of reach, just because the nine small bronze figures have suffered the greatest 'catastrophe' since the millennium.

Zhou Jianguo did what he said, and with the help of Dongtian Baozhu, he really 'helped' Shaolin Temple to achieve a complete 'weight loss'.

The secrets of martial arts, elixir of spiritual materials, and other things like gold and silver were all taken away by Zhou Jianguo, making Shaolin Temple, a top sect, become like a gang of beggars for a long time. As a result, Shaolin Temple fell into a slump.

Of course, these are all things to follow.

There is a full one hundred and eighty catties of fine gold in these bronze figures, so Zhou Jianguo wants to take down this set of bronze figures no matter what.

Today is the arrival of the gods, and this set of bronze figures belongs to him, as Zhou Jianguo said.

Zhou Jianguo himself needs a considerable amount of fine gold to refine the demon trapping talisman. In addition, Zhou Jianguo wants to try to refine some magic tools made of fine gold to see the specific power. Therefore, for fine gold, Zhou Jianguo is better. it is good.

Now that there is so much pure gold here, no one else has discovered it yet. Zhou Jianguo has already encountered it, so how could he miss it!

After the people in front shook their heads and left, Zhou Jianguo stepped forward and started talking to the stall owner.

The stall owner is a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a small head and traces of a golden bell cover on his body. In addition to the things on the stall in front of him, most of them are related to monks. Zhou Jianguo guessed that it was either this A person is related to the Shaolin Temple, or the elders of this person are related to the Shaolin Temple.

"Boss, this is the Shaolin Temple's Arhat Boxing Secret Art. If you sell it like this, you won't be afraid of being known by the Shaolin Temple?" Zhou Jiaguo asked with a smile.

"I am a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple!" The boss replied indifferently: "Besides, Arhat Fist is not considered an advanced exercise in Shaolin Temple. However, you still have to find me or Shaolin Temple to buy the secret medicine needed to practice Arhat Boxing."

"Hey, you guys Shaolin are really cunning. This is not only for short-term benefits, but also for long-term benefits. Awesome!" Zhou Jianguo gave a thumbs up and had to express his admiration for Shaolin Temple's plan.

It seems that Shaolin Temple has leaked the secret method of Luohanquan cultivation, but it is not the case, because if you want to practice Luohanquan, you must have the corresponding secret medicine in addition to the cultivation method of Luohanquan. Without this secret Yao, you are prone to problems when you practice Arhat Boxing, and the speed of your practice is absolutely 'moving'.

Why doesn't Shaolin Temple care about the leakage of its own Arhat Fist practice secret method, because what they want is for you to buy the secret medicine for Luohan Fist cultivation for a long time.

The more people who practice Arhat Boxing, the more secret medicines Shaolin Temple can sell. Correspondingly, the more money Shaolin Temple earns. Therefore, this practice of Shaolin Temple is really clever.

The practice of Shaolin Temple is actually exactly the same as that of the Western world. The Western world sells us some advanced machinery. It seems that they are very generous. In fact, this is a conspiracy of the Western world, no, a conspiracy.

They don't care how much these high-tech machines can be sold for. What they want to earn is the money for replacing parts after these machines break down.

These machines are so advanced that only the western world can manufacture them, we can't manufacture them at all, so once they break down, we have to buy parts from the western world, and at this time, the western world starts to raise prices.

For a small screw, the Western world can buy you thousands of dollars in gold, not to mention other parts.

Similar examples, I believe you should have heard of them, or experienced them yourself.

The stall owner didn't react at all to Zhou Jianguo's words, because this was Shaolin Temple's conspiracy. If you want to practice Arhat Fist, you have to buy the secret medicine refined by Shaolin Temple. Otherwise, no matter how much you practice Arhat Fist, it will be half the effort.

If you think this is a Shaolin Temple conspiracy, then you don’t need to practice Luohan Quan, Shaolin Temple will not embarrass you, but if you practice Luohan Quan, then you have to go to Shaolin Temple to buy secret medicine.

Some people here will say, don't other sects and aristocratic families sell corresponding secret medicines?

Actually not really.

why?
The reasons are very simple. One, Shaolin Temple is a top sect, and no one in the cultivation world dares to provoke them.

It would be good if Shaolin Temple didn't attack you, if you try to get rich from Shaolin Temple, wouldn't you be looking for your own death?

Secondly, it is quite difficult to copy the secret medicines of various sects.

In the 60s and there is no advanced technology fifty years later, it is really difficult to crack a prescription at this time, and even after fifty years, with advanced technology, it is difficult to crack this prescription , is equally difficult.

The refining of secret medicines like this uses the method of alchemy. Technology can distinguish the specific ingredients in the secret medicine, but it is absolutely impossible to analyze the procedures and heat of alchemy.

Just like the top metals in many countries, in fact, there are some of these top metals in the research laboratories of each country, and the ingredients are very clear, but why can't others copy them?
The reason is very simple, that is, the procedure for refining this top-level metal is too complicated for others to copy unless they have the corresponding refining procedure for such a top-level metal.

For example, during refining, the order and quantity of each metal, as well as the corresponding temperature requirements, pressure requirements, reaction time, etc. These things are too complicated, and there is a slight error in one of them. Welcome The only thing is to fail.

The means of alchemy are not much worse than those of these technological refining methods. It is really very difficult for you to figure out the details.

"Boss, can I have a look at this set of bronze figures?" Zhou Jianguo said.

"Okay, just look around, but you only have half a minute, and after half a minute, you have to put down the bronze figure." The stall owner emphasized the time again.

There are many geniuses in the cultivation world who can remember with a photographic memory. Therefore, in order to prevent such people from coming to my side for nothing, the stall owner set a half-minute time limit.

When Zhou Jianguo was about to inspect it, the stall owner wanted to help Zhou Jianguo move one of the bronze figures, but Zhou Jianguo directly refused, saying that it would be better if he came by himself.

The stall owner smiled. He knew that Zhou Jianguo was worried that he would tamper with it, so he didn't care about it.

The heart of guarding against others is indispensable. Although this sentence is mostly used in the relationship between people, in the antique industry, this sentence must also be kept in mind.

Remember, if you enter the antique industry, you must remember one thing, that is, you must never accept antiques from others, no matter how kind and harmless the other party looks, don’t accept them, just wait Only when the other party puts the antiques away and put them in a safe place can I get started, so as not to be touched by others when the time comes, and then it will be unclear.

Of course, this is the world of warriors, so you may not know how to play it, or dare not touch porcelain and antiques, but, as mentioned above, you must be cautious!
"Half a minute, I'll pay attention." After Zhou Jianguo said this, he squatted down and pretended to look at the set of bronze figures.

Zhou Jianguo's inspections were all pretense, and he knew exactly what this set of bronze figurines were like.

Seeing the calm look on Zhou Jianguo's face, the stall owner was a little curious, and asked involuntarily, "My friend, do you have a photographic memory?"

"How to say?" Zhou Jianguo asked without raising his head.

"Others, after hearing that I only gave them half a minute to check, they will more or less complain, or want to ask for more time with the bargainer, but you have a calm face, look It looks like you are right, like you have a chance to win, so I guess, you will not forget it, otherwise, your expression is too calm."

The stall owner said directly that he really suspected that Zhou Jianguo had a photographic memory, otherwise, how could Zhou Jianguo be so calm. ,

"Guess?" Zhou Jianguo didn't answer, but asked the stall owner to guess, and then turned around to check.

"I guess you don't have this ability." The stall owner suddenly said firmly.

"Oh, why? How did you know that I don't have a photographic memory." Zhou Jianguo was a little curious, how did this stall owner know that he would not have a photographic memory.

"It's very simple!" The stall owner became more and more confident.

"If you have a photographic memory, why would you just stare at one bronze figure? At this time, you will definitely take the time to look at all nine bronze figures, but you don't have a photographic memory, so you won't have a photographic memory!"

The stall owner said confidently that Zhou Jianguo couldn't help but slap his hands at him because of his words. The stall owner's observation skills are indeed very strong. Just because he only observed one of the bronze figures, he was sure that he would not be blind. Forget, this power of observation is quite strong.

"However, if I pretended all of this, and in fact, I had memorized all the secret methods just now, what should I say?" Zhou Jianguo smiled and asked a seemingly tricky question.

However, after hearing Zhou Jianguo's question, the stall owner laughed and said, "If that's really the case, I can only congratulate you."

"Oh, shouldn't you scold me, or directly teach me a lesson?" Zhou Jianguo was a little puzzled.

"No, I won't, I'll make friends with you." The stall owner smiled.

"why?"

"The reason is very simple. Since you can memorize all the secret methods of the Luohan group at a glance, it means that you are definitely a genius. In the future, there will definitely be a place for you in the cultivation world. At this time, I will not take the initiative to befriend you. , but to offend you, I have to be so stupid to do this. Moreover, a set of Arhat Fist, I have sold it, how precious can it be?! If you can use a set of Arhat Fist to beat a person in the cultivation world Future Tianjiao, then I will definitely make a lot of money! Do you think this is the truth?"

Zhou Jianguo didn't answer, but answered with a thumbs up.
