Chapter 150: Rare Extraterrestrial Strange Stone
Under the leadership of Liu Gan, Ye Zan came to a well-hidden shop, which was located at the deepest part of a deep alley. ☆ Tomato Novel Network ---``--`---The shop has a signboard, but there is nothing written on it, just a big centipede that looks extremely ferocious.
This big centipede is black in body, more than one meter long, with thick and thin wrists, and densely packed legs that look very penetrating. This big centipede was not painted on the signboard, nor was it a specimen, but a living centipede crawling on the signboard.
With such a signboard, it is no wonder that the shops are placed here. If it is placed on the street, it will affect the city appearance too much.
The door of the shop was not open, but half-closed, with only a narrow gap exposed. Looking in through the crack of the door, nothing can be seen in the darkness, only some strange noises can be heard from time to time.
Liu Gan stepped forward, raised his hand and knocked on the half-covered door.
With the sound of kicking and rattling footsteps, a 14-year-old black fat man opened the door from the inside, glanced at the crowd, turned around and walked in, and said, "Come in, see what you want." .”
"Little brother, may I ask, where is the original owner of this shop?" Liu Qian asked curiously after following up the shop.
"Hey, it looks like he's still a regular customer!" The little black fat man turned around and glanced at Liu Gan, and then said, "My grandpa went back to the mountains to retire a few years ago, so don't think that pretending to be a regular customer is all about me." I will give you a discount. □ Tomato □○Novel Network△ □ ``---``---`The tricks of you people from outside the mountains cannot fool me."
Liu Gan was immediately embarrassed by the words.
Ye Zan was amused, but he didn't say anything, and looked around the shop. This is indeed a shop related to Gu, there are some gourds for raising Gu on the wall, and some tools used to lure insects to refine Gu. On the front is a medicine cabinet full of small drawers like the one in a pharmacy, but the medicines in it are not medicines for curing diseases, but various herbs for nourishing Gu, some of which are highly poisonous.
"What do you want to buy?" the little black fat man asked Ye Zan.
"How do you know it's me who wants to buy something?" Ye Zan asked back.
The little black fat man curled his lips, pointed at Liu Qian and Qi Qianjun, and said, "Do you need to ask? There is a guide in the front and a bodyguard in the back. Didn't it mean that you wanted to buy something while you were walking?"
"I want to buy some materials for refining insect nests. I don't know if you have them here." Ye Zan said with a smile.
"Want to refine the insect nest?" The little black fat man looked Ye Zan up and down,
He said unceremoniously: "Raising Gu is hard work. Don't listen to anyone and think it's no big deal. I think you'd better raise a Gu first."
"Thank you little brother for your kindness." Ye Zan said politely.
"It's not a good intention," the little black fat man waved his hand, and said in a disdainful tone, "I'm afraid you'll spoil those Gu worms. `````- I've seen people like you a lot, I don't know where Hearing some rumors, I thought that refining Gu would make me invincible in the world, but I couldn't stand it after a few days, and the unlucky ones were those Gu insects in the end."
For those who don't understand, raising Gu is raising a lot of bugs, just throwing some rotten meat and vegetables to keep them alive. But in fact, there are a lot of details in it, and you can only know it after you have really raised them. Even just keeping them alive is very difficult, let alone improving their strength and manipulating them to fight against the enemy.
Just like in the Earth Age, when some people saw cats and dogs being cute, they immediately fell in love with them. However, I bought it and played with it for two days, only to realize that it is very troublesome to raise, and it has to be shoveled, and the house is full of hairs and so on. The result was a period when the city was full of stray cats and dogs.
However, Ye Zan didn't want to raise gu, not on impulse. Although, it hasn't been long since I thought of it, but after all, it has been considered carefully.
"So, what do you want to buy?" After the little black fat man finished speaking, he asked Ye Zan again.
However, Ye Zan didn't intend to change his mind. He took out a list and said, "I need the materials for refining insect nests. Do you have them here?"
Co-author, I just said it in vain, right? The little black fat man glared at Liu Gan who was giggling next to him, turned around and said to Ye Zan: "Don't make any insect nests, I have some ready-made ones here, you can take a look.☆ ``----` -`-`-`”
Of course it's good to have ready-made ones. Ye Zan said that now, he still can't make insect nests. After all, it's just a foundation-building realm. He bought these materials only to prepare for his promotion to Jindan. Anyway, he came here once, and he prepared some first if he could buy it.
"Okay, let me have a look." So Ye Zan nodded and said.
"These insect nests are all left by those who wanted to raise Gu on impulse. They are all good things, but unfortunately I didn't meet a good owner. You can look at them casually." The little black fat man said, from Qiankun quit Inside, various insect nests were taken out and placed on the counter.
This worm nest is actually a magic weapon to accommodate Gu worms, it is not a nest built by the worms in nature. Therefore, in terms of styling, they are all different, after all, everyone's aesthetics are different.
The insect nests brought out by the little black fat man are in the shape of small tripods, kits, gourds, and wine jugs. There are good-looking ones, and there are also ugly ones, and there is even one, which is directly a miniature version of a termite nest, which can be called a variety of strange things.
Ye Zan looked at it all the way, in fact, the quality of these insect nests is almost the same, they are all low-grade magic weapons. ☆ Tomato ○ Novel Network - The only difference is that some have a larger space, while others have a smaller space, and there is not much difference in function.
However, even the one with the largest space is not very satisfactory to Ye Zan. You know, the Zerg is not that kind of small insects. Although there are also small ones, most of them are still huge. The worm nest with the largest space might be filled with just one cerebrate worm, so there is no room for other worms.
"Why, are you not satisfied?" The little black fat man frowned and asked.
"Is there a bigger space? I want to raise Gu worms, not that kind of small things." Ye Zan shook his head and said.
"Bigger space?" The little black fat man scratched his head when he heard this request.
Generally speaking, in this world, when it comes to Gu insects, they are all small in size, like the big centipede on the sign outside, they are considered different. It is said that the most powerful Gu worms can't even be seen by people. They are definitely invisible and terrifying existences that kill people. And the most common ones, such as poisonous locusts and golden cicadas, are only the size of a finger, and any nest can hold tens of thousands of them.
"What on earth are you..." The little black fat man originally wanted to ask Ye Zan what kind of Gu he wanted to raise, but after all he still remembered the rules, so he didn't continue to inquire, but thought for a while, and then took out another strange thing.
I say this thing is strange because it looks like a stone, and it is the size of a palm. It's just that, on this stone, there are some holes densely packed like honeycombs of different sizes, and it looks like a stone-colored sponge.
"Is this also a worm's nest?" Ye Zan asked curiously.
"This...is sort of it." The little black fat man replied with some embarrassment.
Liu Gan was a little dissatisfied at the side, and said: "Yes, yes, no, no, what is it?"
"Don't interrupt if you don't understand," the little black fat man replied without showing any weakness, and then explained to Ye Zan: "This is not a refined insect nest, but a strange stone from outside the territory. See Are these holes? Each hole has a huge space, even if it fits this ancient city, it will be no problem."
Hearing this, Ye Zan and the others were a little surprised, but at the same time they didn't believe it. If there really is such a large space, wouldn't this stone be comparable to a secret realm? Even if it is only used for storage, it can hold much more than the Qiankun Ring.
Seeing Ye Zan's expression of disbelief, the little black fat man seemed a little annoyed, and said, "Let me tell you, when we do business in the Southern Wilderness, we always pay attention to the authenticity of the goods. Although this stone has a lot of space, if you put things in it , will be sucked out of spiritual energy, only living things can not be sucked out of spiritual energy in it."
Ordinary storage treasures, such as the Hundred Treasure Bag Qiankun Ring, can only release dead objects and not living objects. And this stone, according to what the little black fat man said, can only collect living things, not dead things. However, this cannot be said to be the shortcoming of this stone. You must know that in this world, magic weapons that can collect living things are more rare and precious than things like the Qiankun Ring.
For example, in the Beast Control Sect, there is a magic weapon called the Beast Control Ring, which can only be used to collect a monster or a mount, but the price is higher than the general Qiankun Ring. Even Yu Qingzong, though richer now, did not have the extravagance to equip Ye Zan and his horses with animal harnesses. So much so that when they stayed in the shop, they had to hand over their mounts to the shopkeeper to take care of them.
"It's not bad to be able to collect living things!" Liu Gan said beside him. Of course, that's what he said, but there was still a strong sense of disbelief in his tone. Comparing it with the beast control circle, if this stone is really that powerful, its value may be tens of thousands of times that of the beast control circle.
"It's not bad, this thing doesn't absorb the spiritual energy of living things, but the living things can't get a trace of spiritual energy in it, and it will lose the spiritual energy after a long time." The little black fat man said in frustration.
Obviously, this little black fat man is not a material for doing business at all, and he actually demoted his own things again and again, shaking out all his shortcomings. If he didn't say the latter sentence, he would definitely be able to sell this stone for a sky-high price just because it can accommodate living things. Of course, if he really sold it like that, the store would have been smashed long ago.
"Oh, you finally said it!" Liu Gan pointed to the little black fat man, and said mockingly: "You have said it all, even if it is a living thing, it can't stay in it for a long time, and you still want to think about it." Let people use it to raise Gu?"
"You!" The little black fat man was stunned, blinked his eyes twice, turned to look at Ye Zan, and said, "Look, you said you want a large space, and this is the only room I have. As for other things I can't solve the problem, so you might as well look at other insect nests." (To be continued.)
