Bone Taoist

Chapter 71
"Does Fellow Daoist Ye still refuse to agree? Could it be that he doesn't like this golden book?"

Huangfu Qiyue bit her lip lightly and said.

"Ma'am, you are joking. This "Golden Talisman Book" is a comprehensive Dao book compiled by Lingling. How can I not look down on you?" Ye Zang thought for a few seconds, and then said: "That's all, I will accept this matter. .”

After hearing this, Huangfu Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief and presented the golden book with both hands.

"Thank you Daoist Ye for your success."

Ye Zang calmly put the "Golden Book of Talismans" into the Qiankun bag, and then said: "Madam, my daughter has a good talent and will be successful in the future. If she can open the meridians in front of the crown, I can serve as a recommendation and worship her." The disciples of Jiuqiao can also delve into the art of talismans, so as not to interrupt the Taiyi inheritance."

Hearing this, Huangfu Qiyue's beautiful eyes trembled slightly, her heart was greatly moved, and she bowed deeply to Ye Zang.

Although there are only nine people left in the Taiyi Gate, they are still sitting on a hilltop. There are some things that need to be packed up. They made an appointment with Huangfu Qiyue to set off tomorrow at [-]:[-], and the latter walked out of the room leisurely immediately.

After she left, Ye Zang took out the "Golden Book of Talismans" again.

This Taoist book has a frosted texture to the touch, and its cover is golden in color. It is a finger thick and quite heavy.

Ye Zang flipped through a few pages at random.

In fact, the original "Golden Book of Talismans" is less than half a finger thick, and now most of them are the annotations of the Taiyi Sect Master, who has spent his whole life studying the way of Talismans.

The value of this Daoist book only discusses the value of Qimen talisman, which has far surpassed that of "Yunji Tulu".

After browsing for a while, Ye Zang was quite interested in a middle-grade talisman recorded in it.

Then I thought about trying to engrave it myself.

Looking through his storage bag, he remembered that he had used up all the blank talisman papers long before he became a monster.

He looked through the Qiankun bags of Dingyang, Shen Yucen and the others, and saw a lot of finished talismans, but there was no blank talisman paper.

"Forget it, let's go to the Taihua venue."

In fact, there are a lot of talismans in Taiyi Gate, but Ye Zang has just collected the golden book and doesn't want to bother Huangfu Qiyue at this moment. The Taihua venue is not far from here anyway.

Thinking about it, Ye Zang walked out of the room.

Rising from the ground, the clouds soared, and Yukong fled towards the direction of the venue.

……

Not long after, Ye Zang came to a place with green mountains and green waters.

This place is surrounded by mountains and surrounded by clouds and mist.And deep in the valley, there are a series of palace attic terraces with carved railings and jade inlays, hidden in the mist.

Naturally, it is the venue of Taihua.

Ye Zang walked in straight, and came to a three-story attic where talismans were sold.

Ding Yang, Shen Yucen and others have less than a hundred high-grade spirit beads in their Qiankun bags, which is not comparable to those disciples from great families.

Ye Zang bought ten bundles, totaling more than 1000 pieces of blank talisman paper, and also bought several bottles of blood essence from the cave monsters. He spent a total of twenty high-grade spirit beads, which was enough for him to use for a while.

Just as he was about to leave, a young man trotted over with a smile on his face.

This person is just a mediocre person, with a goatee on his chin, and his face looks like that of a slippery person.

"Hey, fellow Taoist, go slowly!"

"What's the matter?" Ye Zang asked casually.

The man stopped Ye Zang and bowed to him. Ye Zang's cultivation level was higher than his, and the latter said in a polite tone: "My lord, Huang Shang, is the stone-builder of this pavilion. I came to Qianjin Pavilion a while ago. A batch of high-quality strange stones, I wonder if friends are interested in seeing them?"

"Strange stone?" Ye Zang frowned upon hearing this, and stopped in his tracks.

Dare to feel that this is taking yourself as a victim to kill, right? Ye Zang is extraordinary in appearance, and his hands are generous, so he may be regarded as a disciple of a certain aristocratic family.

"There are many ways to do this strange stone. Fellow Daoist, please, I will take you to the third floor to observe it first, and discuss it as we go."

Huang Shang led Ye Zang to the third floor of Qianjin Pavilion involuntarily.

Along the way, they talked wildly and spit, and talked to Ye Zang about the way of this strange stone.

As the two walked up to the third floor, various noises were heard.

In the counter on the third floor, there are many rare items.

Jade keel, snake birth marrow, century-old fire essence, five elements Geng earth, thousand-year jadeite, and even Ye Zang saw a fist-sized piece of purple gold Tai Sui meat.

It's dazzling and dizzying to see. Most of these are used for refining weapons and elixirs.The price is even more prohibitive. Just a piece of Five Elements Gengtu the size of a fingernail can be sold for a thousand high-grade spiritual beads.The fist-sized pieces of purple and gold Tai Sui meat cost tens of thousands.

And these strange objects were all excavated from the ancient stone.

Huang Shang glanced at Ye Zang's expression from the corner of his eye and saw that his eyes were on those strange objects, and he was quite satisfied.

The two walked all the way to the inside of the third floor, where many people surrounded them.

Pointing at the hundreds of strangely shaped stones lying on the ground.

"This batch of strange stones was transported from the Shangyuan Ancient Mine yesterday. It was a coincidence, fellow Daoist, otherwise you would have missed a big opportunity. Let's say that last night, a fellow Daoist spent five top-grade spirits Beads, from this pile of strange stones, a fist-sized Skyfire Jade was extracted, and tens of thousands of spirit beads were auctioned at the Taihua Fair today..."

On the way there, Huang Shang beside him was still chattering.

Most of the people watching were young Taoists, looking at it with brilliant eyes. There were also some experienced Taoists, squatting on the ground, touching the stones in their hands, frowning, and from time to time they used spiritual energy to probe.

At this time, there was a stone cutter holding a white stone in the shape of a human brain. The white stone was covered with moss. At first glance, it looked a bit old.The stone opener carefully held a sharp dagger, which is also a high-grade magic weapon, which can cut iron like mud.

Layer by layer, like peeling an onion, he slowly peeled the white stone.

At the same time, a young man squatting beside him looked nervously at the white stone.

The sky and the earth are vast, with all kinds of strange things, earth treasures and spiritual materials, buried deep in the veins of the earth, and have never been excavated. Over time, they are wrapped in ore and never see the sun all year round.

This is where the strange stone comes from. It is older than a thousand years and should be regarded as an ancient stone.

Among these strange stones, there is a higher chance of containing spiritual materials and treasures.

With traces of spiritual energy attached to his eyes, Ye Zang opened his pulse-finding eyes and looked at the strange-shaped stones. Some of the stones that came into view were wrapped in rich ancient energy and could not be penetrated. He could only feel the traces of spiritual energy in them. These stones must be real thousand-year-old stones, and Ye Zang must cultivate his Dharma Eye to reach the sky before he can penetrate them.

However, some stones were placed randomly and mixed together.

"I know how to do business. These stones are indeed contaminated with the atmosphere of Shangyuan ancient mines, but they were all formed within the past hundred years. The possibility of strange things in the stones is very slim." Ye Zang thought to himself.

Just as he was thinking about it, the stone cutter had already chipped away most of the white stone.

The cyan viscous liquid flowed out, and the Shikaishi showed a surprised expression, and immediately took out the jade bottle to catch the flowing green liquid.

"This is... the Green Spirit of Flowing Water!" A young monk exclaimed in surprise.

"Look at the fineness, it is estimated to be a hundred years old."

"If you can attach a few strands before the Vientiane magic weapon is formed, the power will definitely increase!"

Everyone looked enviously at Baishi's master, the young Taoist blushed, and then couldn't help it anymore, and let out a laugh.

"It's a pity that there's only half a bottle?"

After the stone cutter used the jade bottle to catch half of the bottle, not a drop came out of the white stone.

When the young Taoist heard this, his laughter stopped abruptly.

"This, it's impossible!" He scratched his head in disbelief, his eyes were bloodshot and said, "How could such a big white stone only have such a little water green essence!"

After saying that, he grabbed the stone cutter's dagger and cut the white stone open in three strokes.

Sure enough, it was empty inside, with only a few drops of green essence remaining.

These green spirits are worth 20 yuan of high-grade spirit beads. At first glance, they seem to be pretty good, but this Taoist spent [-] high-grade spirit beads to buy this white stone that everyone is optimistic about. Before that, he had already spent thousands of spirit beads and opened more than a dozen strange stones, but they were all empty.

He took the half bottle of Qingjing handed over by the stone cutter with an embarrassed expression, looked at the remaining stones with his eyes, and then suddenly picked up a piece of bluestone.

"Open this one!" As he said that, he was about to take out the spirit beads from the Qiankun bag, but found that he only had a few left.

The scene was momentarily awkward.

"I will return to my clan to collect the spirit beads, and I will keep this stone with you. No one is allowed to touch it!"

As he said that, he hurriedly pushed away the crowd and walked out of Qianjin Pavilion.

Ye Zang squatted down, took a fragment of Baishi in his hand, opened the pulse-finding eye, and looked at it carefully.After a while, he discovered the clue.

"The technique is extremely delicate. If I hadn't cultivated the pulse-seeking Dharma Eye, I wouldn't be able to see it." Ye Zang muttered to himself.

This white stone has been cut into pieces once.

As for what kind of strange object was inside, it was unknown, but Ye Zang could confirm that it was definitely not the small half bottle of Qingjing.

At this time, another female cultivator, carefully holding a rectangular strange stone, came to the stone maker.

"Are you sure it's this one?"

"En." Saying that, the female cultivator took out ten top-grade spirit beads from the Qiankun bag and handed them to the Kaishishishi.

After a while, the stone was completely chipped away, and there was only some thick loess inside, not even worth half a top-grade spirit bead.

"how come……"

The female cultivator's face turned red, her eyes were wide open, and she found it difficult to accept.

At the same time, Huang Shang approached Ye Zang and asked, "Which strange rock is your favorite, I will help you plan it."

"No hurry." Ye Zang said casually.

When Huang Shang heard the words, he spoke with reluctance, and immediately pointed to a black stone the size of a human head, and said, "Friend Daoist, I think that strange stone is not bad, and it is very likely that there are rare things hidden. You need twenty high-grade spirit beads, you can give it a try."

Ye Zang glanced at the black stone casually. Even the ancient vein aura on this stone is very weak. It is hard to say whether it was transported from the ancient mine in Shangyuan. He paused and said with a smile: "Friend Huang Dao is so Be optimistic about that stone, it is better to buy it and cut it yourself.”

Hearing this, Huang Shang laughed awkwardly and walked aside consciously to talk to other Taoists.

Not long after, he really fooled a young Taoist priest.

The Taoist handed Huang Shang twenty spirit beads, and the latter excitedly picked up the stone and began to cut it, but after a while, there was nothing inside, not even thick loess.

"The way of this strange stone is roughly the same. Fellow Daoists don't need to lose heart. I think that strange stone is good, and it can be cut out..."

Huang Shang comforted the Taoist while chattering endlessly.

Ye Zang casually walked among the strange rocks, opened his eyes wide, and began to observe unscrupulously. After a while, he set his sights on a rock with pits and holes. This strange rock was only the size of a fist, but the ancient vein was very strong. .

Ye Zang squatted down halfway, and was stretching out his hand to pick up the stone and use the method of acupressure to examine it carefully, when a snow-white arm like suet jade stretched out at the same time, almost touching that slender hand.

"Fellow Daoist also fell in love with this strange stone? Then I won't win people's love." The voice was clear and ethereal like a yellow warbler.Ye Zang turned his head to see a woman in a light yellow Taoist robe, with a delicate and pleasant appearance, not even crowned, but already cultivated in the sky.

"Thank you fellow daoist." Ye Zang immediately picked up the strange stone upon hearing the words.

Seeing this, the woman in yellow was slightly taken aback, she didn't think that Ye Zang was polite, she didn't even say a few polite words, she directly took the strange stone in her hand, and looked at it as if no one else was there.

The ancient veins on this strange stone are very heavy, and Ye Zang's microscopic pulse-seeking eyes cannot penetrate them, and can only see an invisible layer of mist covering them.

He tried to probe into the strange stone by tapping acupuncture points, but as if he had entered a maze, he went around left and right, but he still couldn't penetrate into the center.

"You can only know what's inside by cutting it open."

Holding this fist-sized jagged stone, Ye Zang walked towards Huang Shang, and the woman in yellow followed thoughtfully.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, help me cut open this stone." Ye Zang said casually.

When Huang Shang saw the stone held by Ye Zang, he couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He took the strange stone with a smile on his face, and Ye Zang handed over the spirit bead.

It is clearly marked that this strange stone only requires three high-grade spiritual beads.

Generally, the strange stones with very low price tags are mostly scraps from some ancient mines, stones that are not favored by Qianjin Pavilion.

"Is anyone cutting stone again?"

"Which one, I'll go and see."

A few people gathered around and saw the strange stone in Huang Shang's hand. They just glanced at it and lost interest. It's the size of a fist, but what can it cut out?
Even if it is small, it is only worth three high-grade spiritual beads. Even the sellers are not optimistic about it, and most of them are used to make up the money.

However, because no one has cut stones yet, some people came up to watch.

A strange stone of this size generally only needs a few knives to see the bottom.

Huang Shang took out a dagger. He still had some professional ethics. He first cut a few times very carefully to remove the black stone skin. The outside was bumpy, but the inside was white and clean, and the refreshing stone fragrance permeated out.

Huang Shang's face showed surprise.

This scent of stone spread quickly, and everyone here was shocked, and immediately surrounded them.

"The stone has a strange fragrance, and a strange thing will be born!" An old Taoist said happily.Although it wasn't his own stone, he seemed more excited than anyone else at the moment.
