The Wanqi tribe keeps a close eye on Xianlong Peak every day, making it difficult for them to leave.

"So use your smart brain to think of a solution."

Jia Xitong said matter-of-factly, "You can't expect me to use my brain just to want to go out and have fun."

Shang Yanting: ...Who exactly wants to go out?!

These are the moments that truly test one's skills.

Shang Yanting created a raccoon puppet that was almost indistinguishable from the real thing. It looked at least 80% like the real raccoon and could even say the three simple phrases: "Hello," "Goodbye," and "Don't touch me."

Jia Xitong assigned her five lazy disciples a lot of homework, making sure they couldn't finish it in ten days or half a month and wouldn't dare to come to see her.

Finally, Shang Yanting gave instructions on important matters at the peak and then left openly and honestly with Jia Xitong in broad daylight.

##

It's finally out!

After being confined to the mountains for four or five months, Jia Xitong finally breathed the wind called freedom again.

She stood at the bow of the boat, her arms outstretched to both sides.

The wind billowed her wide sleeves, making her clothes flutter, reminding her of the Titanic. If Shang Yanting came over and stood beside her with his hand outstretched, they would be a Jack and Rose version of the characters from the Aotian Continent.

Wait, that's not right.

The Titanic sank in the end; it's considered unlucky.

Jia Xitong stood at the bow of the boat and spat several times before getting off. Then she remembered something important, "Dear host, where are we headed?"

You're only asking now?

Shang Yanting looked at her, “Changkun Xuzhou, Dongjiehai.”

"oh."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xitong nodded as if she understood, but in reality, she had no idea where that place was.

Shang Yanting didn't know either.

It was simply a place where the legendary martial arts master Ban Qi had perished, and he wanted to revisit it.

It turns out that only she and Shang Yanting were on this trip!

Jia Xitong suddenly remembered this important matter, and a malicious smile appeared on her face. However, at that moment, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a large white rat darting under the cushion inside the Water Cloud Boat.

What is it?

"grumble--!"

A pair of long ears appeared at this moment, proving that it was not a mouse.

We've struck it rich!

Here's what happened: Ever since Iron Egg Flower arrived, its position as the top dog in Warcraft has been precarious. Moreover, while it, Old Horse, and Old Ox are kept in captivity by Niu Chuanchuan, Iron Egg Flower is free-range by Old Nineteen. Its special treatment of running around the mountain every day with its butt bag has made Fa Cai green with envy.

So... every morning, before Niu Chuanchuan feeds it, it sneaks out and circles around Xianlong Peak to satisfy its strange competitive desire.

Today, it was taking its usual walk when it ran into Niu Chuanchuan on the way.

It was also worried that he would reinforce the stable if he found out, so it quickly hid in something that wasn't tied up yet.

Then it was tied up along with these things.

Then, it was put on the ship.

By the time it crawled out on its own, it was already in the sky!

At this moment, Xianlongfeng, carrying fodder, went to Niu Chuanchuan's stable and saw that one of the magical beasts was missing. He felt as if the sky had fallen.

The world of two has turned into two people and a beast.

It's alright, it's still a private time for just the two of us.

Jia Xitong pulled Fa Cai out from under the stool and shouted, "Fa Cai, put on a show!"

These are familiar instructions.

Fa Cai immediately understood, put its front paws together, and bowed to her.

She watched this thing the whole way, forgetting all about flirting with the host and taking advantage of the host.

Shang Yanting: ...

##

Changkun has arrived in Xuzhou.

Looking down from the sky, the golden rooftops reflect the sunlight, contrasting beautifully with the green forests, pink sand beaches, and the blue ocean that merges with the sky. All the colors complement each other perfectly, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

It's not only beautiful, but also lively.

This place is a melting pot of mortals and cultivators, and it's incredibly lively no matter where you go.

Surprisingly, the most traded items here are not seafood or pearls, but rather ordinary, unremarkable stones.

Most of the people surrounding these vendors were monks, holding strange equipment and examining the stones as if trying to see through them.

Some people have already bought them.

This monk bought the stone, then turned around and asked the stall owner to open it. His face flushed red, and he was extremely fanatical.

The stall owner cut it open for him.

A stone the size of a basketball contained a spirit stone the size of an egg.

This spirit stone is rich in spiritual energy.

The aura of mid-grade spirit stones wafted towards them.

This opened Jia Xitong's eyes.

"Dear host, is this how spirit stones are made?"

"Of course not."

Before Shang Yanting could answer, the young cultivator beside him interrupted, "Ordinary spirit stones come from spirit veins and are mined from them. Only our Changkun Xuzhou has a special product called Dongjie Stone, which contains spirit stones."

The Eastern Exhaustion Stone not only contains spirit stones, but they are of extremely high quality. Almost every stone capable of producing spirit stones is at least of mid-grade quality.

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the cultivator next to him who was holding spirit stones and whose face was almost wrinkled from smiling, "The spirit stones he obtained have instantly increased in value dozens of times."

"Young lady, young master, you've come from afar, why not try your luck?"

"No need."

Shang Yanting saw through the little trick at a glance.

The idea of ​​getting rich quick by buying stones is similar to gambling on stones in the mortal world. It's a business where one cut can make you rich or poor. Buyers want to get rich quick, while sellers want to squeeze every last penny out of their buyers.

Don't even think about cheating him out of a single penny in this kind of gambling.

"It seems pretty good. How much is one?"

Jia Xitong looked at the vendor.

Shang Yanting: ...

"Depending on the quality, the larger ones cost ten low-grade spirit stones each, and the smaller ones cost five low-grade spirit stones each."

"So cheap?"

Give me two!

After Jia Xitong finished speaking, Shang Yanting took a deep breath.

He finally reached out to stop Jia Xitong, "Sweetie, we won't buy it."

"If you're going out to have fun, how can you have fun without spending money?"

Jia Xitong pulled away his hand that was trying to stop her and handed over the money.

Stone-themed scratch-off lottery tickets.

Let's each choose one!

Jia Xitong rubbed her hands together and chose a large, round one. Anyone could tell she didn't know how to choose stones; she was a complete novice.

Although Shang Yanting was initially reluctant to spend money, he was much more serious than Jia Xitong when it came to actually making a selection.

He first observed the experienced monks around him, and they rejected all the stones they had examined.

Then, using the methods of gambling on stones, they would examine the patterns and textures on the surface of the stones, and even secretly inject spiritual energy into the stones to explore their internal quality.

Hmm... I can't find it.

After searching for a long time, Shang Yanting finally chose a stone of average size and elongated shape.

"Do we have to bring them all out?"

The stall owner put the stone aside and asked a question.

"Okay, open!"

Jia Xitong nodded, "Scratch-off lottery tickets are most exciting and fun the moment they're opened!"
