I am Su Mu.
A cunning merchant who has traversed into a world of cultivation and magic!
My motto? [Pay-to-win to become immortal, grind till the end!]
Spending my own money is not...
"Brother, you are wrong, this giant Buddha is not alive." Su Ye looked at his brother who was shouting and laughed so hard that he bent over.
Su Mu usually looks mature beyond his years, and it's rare to see him so surprised and out of control.
"It's not alive? It's moving."
The big Buddha in this world is not like the one on Earth, sitting quietly by the river.
It sometimes stands up to look around, and sometimes walks into the turbulent river to help passing ships. It does not sit for very long.
But before Su Ye could explain, Su Mu reacted: "Is this big Buddha the same as the rune figurine that Fatty Bird wants to buy? It is a large puppet-like magical instrument with a certain degree of intelligence?"
"That's right."
Su Ye nodded and introduced the information she had read while being bored at home.
"Lingyun Mountain is the confluence of the Minjiang River, Qingyi River, and Dadu River, and the water flows rapidly. During the Tang Dynasty, there were frequent incidents of shipwrecks and deaths, and floods during the rainy season, causing disasters for the people on both sides of the river. At that time, there was a monk named Hai Tong who was proficient in talisman formations and instrument repair. After seeing the situation here, he presided over the construction of this Dharma instrument Buddha to protect the people."
"For thousands of years, this giant Buddha has stood firm despite wind and rain, and has played a role. Whenever there are disasters such as floods and earthquakes, it will be mobilized to participate in disaster relief, and its role is huge. From ancient times to the present, countless people have been saved by it. Because of this, although it is not a real Buddha, it is regarded as a real Buddha by the people around it, and incense has never stopped."
Su Mu sighed again and again.
The Buddha statue on Earth is said to be used to suppress floods and act as a dam. The Buddha statue in this world is even more useful and can provide even greater help to the people around it.
Even today, it still plays a big role.
It is hard to say whether this Buddha statue is a real Buddha, but the monk Hai Tong who created this Buddha statue thousands of years ago was a man with a heart of Buddha.
Su Mu felt a little regretful.
It’s a pity that he couldn’t get inside the Buddha to take a look at its internal structure. Maybe he could use the krypton gold plug-in to master the method of making the magical version of the Buddha.
Even if Su Mu cannot make it with his current cultivation and savings, he can wait until later.
Especially this giant Buddha is about seventy or eighty meters tall. When standing up, it is simply a magical version of Gundam and a cultivation version of Transformers.
Don’t be too awesome!
Imagine that when you are fighting with someone, you wave your hand and shout, "It's you, Pikachu."
Then, a magical statue that was seventy or eighty meters tall was summoned from the dimensional space. It waved a palm as big as half a basketball court and shouted at the enemy, sweeping away a large area in an absolutely stunning and domineering manner.
"What a pity." Su Mu sighed and thought to himself, "I must find a chance to go inside the Buddha in the future. I must learn such a powerful magic weapon."
After visiting Leshan, it’s time for dinner.
As a veteran foodie, Kevin had already arranged a place to take Su Mu and Su Ye to taste the special food of Leshan.
The place is not a big hotel, but an old residential area. There is no sign on the road, and it is not easy to find the place once you arrive at the community. You have to call someone to come out and pick you up.
When we entered the house, we saw that it was just an ordinary house with a few tables. There was only one thing for sale: beef with legs crossed.
The chef’s surname was Liu. He was admitted to the Cultivation University and majored in Dingshi. Unfortunately, he failed to build a foundation for several years in a row and finally could only go home with a completion certificate.
He once worked in a big restaurant and earned a lot of money, but later he quit his job and started selling braised beef at home.
This sale lasted for decades.
Although he failed to become a formal cultivator, Master Liu did learn a lot of basic skills in the cultivation university. Over the past few decades, he has mastered these skills to perfection and has imprinted them in his bones.
Moreover, in the past few decades, he has only made one dish, namely, cross-legged beef. Naturally, the taste has become better and better. He has even surpassed many famous chefs in this dish.
This is exactly what Ouyang Xiu meant when he said, "There is nothing special about it, it's just a matter of practice."
Although the place is small and the environment is ordinary, there are many diners who want to come and have a bite, so you have to make an appointment and queue up.
Of course, this is not a problem at all for Kevin, the dog owner.
He is a man with money!
Kevin brought Su Mu and Su Ye here, not to eat ordinary cross-legged beef, but to eat Master Liu's unique skill, cross-legged beef made with deer as the ingredient.
Like the monk chicken, it is also a strange beast.
Although it only has three legs, it can run very fast and its meat is very delicious, being the best of all beef. Kobe beef and New Zealand beef cannot compare to it. Only the meat of Tarasque can be compared with it, but strictly speaking, Tarasque is not a cow but rather a seafood.
Tarasques are also found in many games, and their characteristic is... well, they provide a lot of milk.
As a strange beast, even if it is a beef cattle raised by beastmasters, it also contains a high level of spiritual energy. As long as it is cooked properly, it is a good spiritual dish that ordinary people can eat. After eating it, it not only helps to absorb spiritual energy, but also greatly replenishes vitality, and the effect is better than Shangfu chicken.
Of course, the price is also more expensive.
During these few days of getting along, Kevin noticed that Su Ye was weak. Although he didn't say anything, he demonstrated his gentlemanly demeanor with his actions.
It’s a pity that Master Liu does not allow others to watch him cook, otherwise Su Mu could learn from him and how to cook a bull.
The three of them stayed in Leshan that night and planned to take the bullet train back to Yongfang City the next day.
Come to think of it, Kevin actually bought a house in Sumu's community.
Fortunately, he is a man, otherwise Su Mu would have suspected that he was so active and had some intentions towards her.
That’s not right. Men are more dangerous?
Su Mu shuddered and was secretly alert. This world is too dangerous. Boys must protect themselves!
However, Kevin is said to already have a fiancée, and she is well-matched with him. So he must have a normal sexual orientation and would not dare to do anything wrong.
In the evening at the hotel, Su Mu was chatting with Kevin... no, it should be said that he was giving Kevin a language lesson while browsing Taobao on his mobile phone.
This time, he was not looking at his own online store, but browsing the magic weapon store on Taobao, hoping to buy some self-defense items for himself and his sister.
In fact, Su Mu had this idea as early as when he was selling special-effect Qi-refining pills.
Although this world has very strict laws to protect ordinary people, even if a pharmaceutical company is interested in the formula of the special-effect Qi-refining pills, they will only negotiate with him through legitimate channels instead of trying to seize it through illegal means.
But there are criminals in every world, and this world is no exception. From time to time, you can see wanted posters for illegal practitioners on the Internet.
Wouldn't it be dangerous if you were targeted by such a cultivator?
The price of magic tools that only use spirit cards is quite expensive, while the magic tools that do not use spirit cards are simply useless with Su Mu and Su Ye's cultivation level.
At that time, although Su Mu made some money from the special-effect Qi-refining pills, he still had to save some money for the subject examinations after performing a marrow-washing and blood-transfusion operation on his sister. It was not enough to buy two better card-plug-in magic tools.
Su Mu judged that before the exam, the reputation of the special effect Qi-refining pill would not spread far because it was only circulated among the senior high school students in their school. Even if people from other schools heard the rumor, they would not believe it because there was no physical evidence.
It is only after the test that the special effect Qi-refining pills may be known to many people through reporters' interviews with their school teachers.
But at that time, he had already gone to Qingcheng Mountain to take the subject examination. Even if there were really criminals who were tempted, they would not dare to go to Qingcheng Mountain. Moreover, when he was selling special-effect Qi-refining pills, he also put up a smoke bomb, saying that these pills were obtained from a great alchemist.
Although this won't fool the people who are interested, it will make them spend some time to check.
Su Mu took Xiao Ye to Qingcheng Mountain not only to make it easier to take care of her, but also to prevent his sister from staying at home and encountering accidents.
Regardless of whether Su Mu's judgment is right or wrong, at least so far, they have not encountered any attacks from criminals.
But it’s time to make plans for self-defense weapons.
On the one hand, he is rich now; on the other hand, he is afraid that if his identity is exposed, he will be beaten up with a sack by his online store customers.
If he had a self-defense weapon, even if he couldn't defeat his customers, it would relieve some of the pain when he got beaten, right?
