Chapter 78: Dividing the Treasures
Di Xin's formation skills were indeed high, but everyone still underestimated this formation master's ability to break formations.
When Fake Longxuan arrived, he found that Di Xin had already broken the formation. Stone pillars appeared one after another on the magma surface, densely packed and connected to a stone gate on the rock wall in the distance.
Not surprisingly, this stone gate is what Li Laodao calls the cave.
At this time, everyone was already walking in the direction of this stone gate under the leadership of Di Xin, and they had already walked halfway.
After hearing the movement behind them, several people looked back together. When they found that he had returned, they all looked disappointed.
He actually caught up and came back just in time. Why did he come back so fast, right?
"I've kept you waiting for so long. I'm not too late!"
Long Xuan said hello, said some nonsense, and followed.
Now that the formation has been broken, there is no need to worry about triggering the mechanism, so he walked straight over.
"You destroyed the ancient formation so quickly? How on earth did you do it?"
Long Xuan asked impatiently after catching up with a few people.
He had not gone to the toilet just now, so he came back very quickly. However, Di Xin actually broke the formation in such a short period of time, which had to make him sit up and take notice.
On the surface, this ancient formation is by no means an easy one to break.
Di Xin raised a token in his hand and waved it in front of Long Xuan's eyes, and said with a somewhat proud expression: "Of course this ancient formation is not easy to break. I just forged a formation guide."
"The cave master went to great lengths to set up this ferocious formation, taking every situation into consideration. However, he was careful and didn't expect that some people in this world would forge the formation."
Hearing this, Long Xuan suddenly realized that the formation guide was a remote control for the formation. If the formation guide was there, he could completely control the formation, and there would be no need to work hard to break the formation.
He really didn't expect that passing this fierce formation would be so easy. He thought this level would stump them for a long time.
Li Laodao also looked surprised and asked: "Since you already have the formation guide, does that mean that the dangers in the cave will not pose a threat to us at all?"
"That's right!" Emperor Xin nodded and said, "Fortunately you didn't push open the stone door at that time. Your caution was correct."
"If you hadn't resisted the temptation in your heart at that time and rashly opened the stone door, you would be greeted by a waterfall of magma, which would have soaked you like a drowned chicken."
Hearing this, Li Laodao immediately shuddered uncontrollably. Thinking of the scene of being burned by magma, he was scared.
God knows that he relied on the immortal ability of Xiaoqiang Gu as a backing at that time, but there was a 50% chance that he would open the stone door.
In the end, it was decided not to open it entirely by drawing lots, and that extraordinary luck actually saved his life again.
Now think about it, it's like walking through the gate of hell. No matter how strong Xiaoqiang Gu is, it is impossible to take a bath in magma.
At that time, he will be burned to ashes by magma, and even if there are eight Xiaoqiang Gu, don't think of saving him.
He had to be glad that he found Emperor Xin, otherwise he would die no matter who he teamed up with today.
While everyone was chatting, they had already reached the stone gate. Di Xin had no doubt about his skills in making fake formations. He pushed the stone gate open without hesitation and walked in first.
Long Xuan followed her closely, as if she could bring a sense of security.
There were no dangers along the way, and it was unexpectedly smooth. Nothing unexpected happened. Several people walked all the way to the end, and they walked directly to the cave owner's residence without encountering any danger. It was so smooth that everyone felt incredible.
At least there must be a battle to obtain the treasure, right? However, no, they just went directly to the treasure distribution stage. Then why did they come with so many people? Obviously, one Di Xin was enough.
At the deepest part of the passage was a secret room. Behind the secret room was a stone door with a password lock, which seemed to be the cave owner's treasure house.
In the center of the secret room sat a skeleton in black clothes, sitting on a straw mat in a meditation posture, with a storage bag hanging around his waist.
Seeing this storage bag, everyone's eyes lit up.
"It seems that this senior failed to break through the barrier of life and death and passed away." The little medicine boy said after taking a look.
He forced his eyes away. He knew that no matter what was in the storage bag, it would not be his.
Taoist Li first looked at the stone door with a password lock. He was the initiator of this treasure hunt and he also discovered the cave. According to the rules, the most valuable things in the cave should belong to him.
But now everyone can see that the most valuable thing of the cave owner must be in the treasure house with a password lock.
This is a no-brainer. If there is a pile of junk inside, why put a password lock on it? Isn't it just a waste of time to take off your pants to fart.
So there must be a heaven-defying treasure behind that door, and everyone can see it.
Following his gaze, the others also looked at the stone door.
Li Dashan looked at Di Xin and spoke first: "The treasure of the town must be in that stone door. How about we open this stone door first?"
"According to the rules, the treasure of the town belongs to Li Laodao, but I am very curious about what is inside. How about opening it and letting all of us open our eyes?"
The others also looked at Di Xin together, all showing their expectations for what is behind the door.
Emperor Xin rolled his eyes at them and said helplessly: "Didn't you see? The password belongs to the mechanism, not the formation. My formation can't break the door at all."
"Unless someone knows the password, I can't do anything about this door."
"Don't think about breaking it violently. If this stone door can be broken by force, there is no need to set a password."
"If you move it randomly, it will not trigger the formation, but an unknown mechanism."
"The mechanism is beyond my business scope. It is my blind spot of knowledge, and I have no way to deal with it."
"I don't know what will happen after you move the door randomly, but nothing good will happen anyway."
"Maybe magma will suddenly surge into the entire cave and kill all of us."
Her words were like a basin of cold water, pouring on everyone's heads, making everyone sober instantly.
In this way, doesn't it mean that the door cannot be opened, and the things inside are destined to be out of their reach.
Now Li Laodao finally got anxious. He was the beneficiary of the treasure of the town. If the door was not opened, he would be the one who would lose. The treasure of the town was right in front of him, but he couldn't take it away. How could he be willing? How could he not be anxious?
However, the cave owner had been dead for many years, so where could they get the secret?
As long as the cave owner is not stupid, it is impossible for him to foolishly put the password in this secret room. In other words, it is impossible for them to get the password no matter what, unless the cave master comes back from the dead.
"Is there no other way? How about we try a few more times? I was lucky, I almost walked in with my life last time."
"Maybe I'll be lucky this time and find out the password by chance?"
Di Xin looked at him as if he were an idiot, and thought he could accidentally reveal the password. He didn't have a fever, so what was he thinking?
"If you were the cave master of this cave, would you give others unlimited opportunities to enter the password?" Di Xin asked.
Hearing this, Li Laodao was stunned for a moment, and finally calmed down. No need to think too much, it would definitely not happen, not even a normal person would.
This password will definitely be entered a number of times, maybe three times, or maybe just once.
Once the password is incorrect continuously, the mechanism may be triggered and unknown dangers may occur.
He became a little irritated. There was a treasure mountain right in front of him, but he couldn't move it. This had to be said to be quite frustrating.
Long Xuan had already walked to the password and took a closer look. Good guy, there were actually twenty gears, and each gear had numbers from one to ten, ten.
Anyone who has studied mathematics knows how many arrangements there are. This is simply an astronomical number. How can you be fooled? Show me one!
He also wanted to fool him by chance, but I fooled him! It must have been taught by his math and physical education teacher!
Even if he is a child of luck, he will not be fooled.
Long Xuan had already made up his mind. As long as Li Laodao dared to go up to cover him, he would immediately turn around and run away. He didn't want to be buried with him.
"Forget it! Forget it! Since this treasure is not destined for us, we don't have to force it. Safety is paramount." Li Dashan stood up and consoled him.
Even if the value of the treasure behind the stone gate is astonishing, it still belongs to Li Laodao and will definitely have no chance of being with him.
In this case, of course he is not willing to risk his own life, so of course he will stand up and propose not to open the stone gate. He is not a vested interest.
Everyone must have the same view. It's human nature, doesn't even Long Xuan want to run away?
Li Laodao scanned everyone's faces one by one and finally sighed. He knew that risking everyone's lives was too selfish.
If he really does this, others will definitely stop him, and he will probably cause public outrage.
But how could he be willing to give up like this? Li Dashan can stand up and talk without hurting his back. If the ownership of the treasure of the town belongs to him, will he just give up?
No matter if you don't want it, don't want it. At the worst, you can sell this treasure house, which can also be sold for a sky-high price.
Thinking of someone selling a treasure map at an auction a few years ago, his heart suddenly became hot and he was no longer as depressed as before.
Since there are people who can make a fortune by selling treasure addresses, you can definitely follow suit.
What if I put this treasure address up for auction? The transaction price will definitely not be low, and it will definitely make him a big profit, which is better than getting nothing at all.
What Long Xuan did was a complete inspiration for him, and he no longer struggled. His unwillingness disappeared instantly, and his mood suddenly became brighter.
"Alas! Originally, I had to open this stone door, but how could I not consider the safety of my teammates? Wouldn't that be a selfish person, so I could only sacrifice myself to help everyone and decided not to open this door. ”
"I can't help it. Who can make me kind-hearted? Alas..."
Li Laodao sighed, looking like a saint, which made everyone dumbfounded.
Is this change of face too fast? He couldn't decide so quickly? What was the reason that made him make the decision so quickly.
Everyone was puzzled and looked at him with suspicion. Is he really that easy to talk to? Could it be a scam? Everyone is thinking this.
"Hey! What expressions are you looking at? Are you doubting me? Who in the whole city doesn't know that I, Mr. Li, always speak his mind to the letter. If I don't open it, I won't open it. If I open it, I will be a dog!"
"I was thinking that the cave owner didn't leave a storage bag outside? There must be rich treasures in it, so I won't gain nothing during this trip. Since I have gained something, I can just accept it as soon as I can. It doesn't matter if I don't open this door. !”
Li Laodao said with a very majestic look. People who don't know really think that he is very open-minded and treats treasures like dung.
When he said this, the suspicion on everyone's faces subsided slightly, and then they moved their eyes to the storage bag on Bai Gu's waist, and their eyes became hot again.
Everyone subconsciously forgot what happened just now, and focused all their attention on this storage bag, with eyes filled with anticipation.
This storage bag is related to everyone's interests. What they can gain from this trip depends entirely on this storage bag.
The exciting part of dividing the treasure is coming, how can they not be excited?
"This person must be a person who is proficient in formations. There must be books on formations in his storage bag. How about all the books on formations being mine?" Di Xin was the first to speak.
But Long Xuan also wants formation books? He has not yet begun to study the formations of his micro-school, and it is the time when he urgently needs to supplement his knowledge of formations.
The cave master's formation attainments were obviously not low, and he did not want to let go of such a formation inheritance.
So Long Xuan said: "The storage bag may contain exercises, spiritual techniques, physical techniques, and poison recipes. I suggest all knowledge inheritors make a handwritten copy. This way, everyone's interests can be maximized."
Although he didn't mention the formation books, his sentence directly included the formation books, which was a really good calculation.
Di Xin glared at him secretly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the little medicine boy immediately raised his hand and shouted loudly: "I agree! I agree with both hands and feet!"
Of course he would agree immediately. According to the agreement, all the treasures that belonged to him would go to Long Xuan.
But if all knowledge inheritances are copied by hand, then it is useless for Long Xuan to have two copies of the same inheritance. There is no need to snatch his manuscripts, so that he will not get nothing from this trip.
After the little drug boy responded first, the others also agreed. After all, this was a good thing for everyone and maximized everyone's gains. They had no reason to disagree.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Di Xin did not say anything against it after all.
Speaking of the formation books that she received from others, since she can sell them at will, there is no reason why she must monopolize the inheritance of formations here.
Seeing that his plan was successful, Long Xuan immediately said to Li Laodao: "Since everyone has agreed, let's start dividing the treasure. Li Laodao, it's you or me."
"Of course it's me, I'm the initiator of the mission." He immediately ran to Bai Gu, rubbed his hands, laughed excitedly, and finally pulled off the storage bag hanging from Bai Gu's waist and took it in his hand.
Then without checking what was in the storage bag, he poured out all the treasures in the storage bag in front of everyone.
Suddenly, a dazzling array of treasures were piled up on the ground. All kinds of treasures were piled up like mountains. Many of the treasures were still shining, which dazzled everyone.
There are elixirs, books, spiritual swords, clothing, and various materials... Among them, spiritual stones are the most numerous, accounting for one-half of the treasures. Most of them are middle-grade spiritual stones, including high-grade spiritual stones. All.
After seeing the contents of the storage bag clearly, the little medicine boy's heart suddenly skipped a beat. It was over. It turned out to be a Gu King's storage bag. Now he was at a loss.
How could it be possible for casual cultivators in this area to become Gu King? You must know that casual cultivators have no inheritance, and it is difficult to even obtain the skills to become Gu King. He was puzzled and completely confused.
This storage bag is very fat and has many treasures, including all kinds of treasures, which dazzles everyone.
But when it comes to what is the most valuable among the treasures on the ground, it is of course all kinds of books.
The most valuable thing in this world is knowledge. In this world, all knowledge is treasured by the public and never spread to others. In this world, knowledge is priceless.
Everyone's breathing became rapid, and their eyes showed greedy eyes.
"This senior is actually a Gu King! The skills he has practiced are enough to become a Gu King! Now that we have made it, all of us no longer have to worry about the follow-up skills!"
After seeing the exercises on the ground, Li Laodao's eyes were red and he was about to cry with joy.
This is a technique practiced by a Gu King. It is a technique that can support him until he reaches the out-of-body stage.
The most difficult thing about being a casual cultivator is that there is no inheritance. No knowledge in this world is kept secret, and the concept of self-treasure prevails.
It is really difficult to be a casual cultivator in this world. You can't learn anything and you have to explore everything by yourself, which makes it extremely difficult for a casual cultivator to grow up.
It is quite difficult to cultivate to the spiritual sea stage, but to be able to cultivate to the Gu King is enough to shock everyone.
Not only because of the shortage of resources, but also because of the lack of inheritance. If you don’t even have the skills to practice to the spiritual sea stage, how can you break through the spiritual sea?
Each family's exercises are kept secret, which becomes the biggest constraint on the growth of casual cultivators.
However, now that a Gu King's technique is placed in front of him, and the biggest problem restricting casual cultivators has been solved, how can he not be excited, how can he not be excited?
He was almost going crazy with excitement.
Not just him, everyone was ecstatic and crazy, feeling that a road leading to King Gu was right in front of everyone.
The road to Gu cultivation will be smooth from now on. Just thinking about it makes them breathless and unable to control their emotions at all.
Only the little Yaotong was crying with regret, but thinking that everyone had just passed a knowledge inheritance agreement, everyone copied it, which meant that he had the opportunity to learn the Gu King's skills, and he would not have to pay for the skills in the future. Things are worrying.
Having a complete Gu King inheritance means that you have the possibility of cultivating to become a Gu King. This is a huge opportunity.
His gains from this trip were by no means small, and when he thought about it, he didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
Li Laodao looked at the mountains of treasures in front of him with eyes, and said excitedly: "Okay! According to the rules, I, the discoverer of the cave, must take away one-half of the treasures, and I must give priority to the treasures with the most amazing value here. , and the remaining treasures will be divided equally among the others.”
"If you all have no objections, then let me distribute the treasures."
Li Laodao scanned the faces of several people one by one, and seeing no one objected, he began to distribute the treasures on the ground.
He is not stupid, money is very attractive, and there are too many examples of teammates turning against each other in the face of huge interests.
It is normal in this world for a team to kill each other because of a valuable treasure. How could he not do it?
Therefore, he was extremely cautious during this treasure hunting trip. He chose people whose character was 100% trustworthy. He carefully selected all the people for this trip, and he did not want anyone with a slightly bad reputation.
He also believes in his own vision of people, and he believes that there will be no problems with the people he chooses.
In the end, it was just as he expected. The person he chose did not disappoint him. There were no problems with any of them, which made him smile with satisfaction.
Long Xuan didn't know yet that he had been issued a good guy card, or that he was a good guy carefully selected by Li Laodao in the market. If he knew what Li Laodao was thinking, he wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh.
The title "good guy" is definitely not a good title worthy of praise in this world, and he doesn't want to be labeled as a good old guy.
There are too many treasures on the ground. How long will it take for Old Dao Li to finish dividing them?
So Long Xuan immediately took out the pen and paper he carried with him and began to copy various knowledge inheritances on the ground.
For a person who is often addicted to creation, paper and pen are a must-have item in the storage bag.
Seeing his actions, everyone finally reacted, showing excitement, and ran over to prepare to copy the books on the ground.
However, they soon realized a problem. Which normal person would bring a bunch of paper and pens when going out? Is he going out to sketch?
Even if someone has the habit of writing a diary, a blank book is enough. Who would bring a bunch of paper when they have nothing to do?
So the other casual cultivators either have no paper or not much paper, which is far from enough to copy so many books. Many people don’t even have a pen.
When they saw Long Xuan pile a thick pile of paper on the ground, everyone was stunned and completely messed up.
"Why do you bring so much paper! Are you using it to wipe your butt?" The little medicine boy exclaimed immediately.
"Huh? Don’t you bring paper and pens when you go out? You are so inadequately prepared."
Long Xuan finally discovered the situation of his teammates and looked at them in surprise, as if they were the ones who were abnormal.
Everyone was full of black lines.
This is weird!
Di Xin poked Long Xuan's shoulder with his slender fingers and said without any embarrassment: "Lend me some paper and pen, and I will return it to you when I go back."
The only master of the marrow cleansing stage in the team spoke, how dare Long Xuan disobey? If she took advantage of her high realm to snatch all the books because she had no paper, that would be bad.
So Long Xuan was eager to lend her the paper.
"What are you talking about? It's too distant to borrow. I can just give it to you. They are all mortal things. They are worthless. Just use them."
Long Xuan generously distributed a stack of paper to Di Xin and handed her a pen.
Seeing that the others were looking at him eagerly, Long Xuan had no choice but to treat them equally and distribute some paper to the others to avoid being accused of valuing love over friendship.
Paper and pen are mortal things. For Gu cultivators, a piece of spirit stone is enough. Long Xuan gave them away without any regret. It was completely worth it to use some insignificant things in exchange for a few people's favors.
In this way, several people sat on the ground and began to copy books frantically, and the scene became quiet.
Only Long Xuan took the table and chair out of the storage bag and sat on the chair to copy books comfortably.
For a person who often uses pen and paper to work out recipes, tables and chairs are naturally necessary. It is reasonable for him to take out tables and chairs, right?
However, his reasonableness is a monster in the eyes of others. Who would bring tables and chairs when going out? Is he here to study?
Long Xuan's behavior once again made everyone's eyelids jump, and they looked confused.
They had to wonder if this Long Xuan also brought the bed? What else did he not dare to bring? Where did this uncle come from?
There were also a bunch of delicious foods such as honey barbecue in it. He was here for a trip. What else could not be put in that storage bag?
Everyone was speechless. They were completely shocked by Long Xuan. Seeing him take out tea and fruit plates from the storage bag and put them on the table, the expressions of several people could no longer be held.
They turned their heads away and stopped looking at this weirdo. They finally began to copy the exercises with peace of mind, but the fragrance in the air and the sound of eating in their ears could not calm them down...
