Tong Nuonuo didn't even think about whether to ask Tang Ru.
It goes without saying that this math idiot, who has left his friends and is always cheated in transactions, will not have too many spirit stones available.
Tang Ru always felt that he was unreliable, but in fact, in the eyes of her friends, she and herself were no different.
The two people left the flower hall in frustration, walked out of Zhishi Hall slowly, looked around in confusion, not knowing what to do.
Neither of them was willing to give up, so they squatted under the eaves outside the gate of Zhishitang like down-and-out practitioners, trying to come up with a solution.
Tong Nuonuo held his head and said sullenly, "Otherwise, I won't go this time. When you leave, take Xiaoxun with you. I will teach you how to control her in advance."
Tang Ru posed properly with her hands on her knees. She looked so well-behaved, and her little face was so adorable. If there had been no containers in front of her, kind-hearted people passing by would have given her alms.
She was also very conflicted. If it was any other matter, she would have stood by her partner. But this time she went to Guangji not for anything else but to find Xiaoxiao. This was really not the time to talk about loyalty.
"Let's think of other solutions first. If that doesn't work, we can do as you say," she said.
The two of them squatted there for a while in a daze. Some of the practitioners coming and going passed by in a hurry, while others looked at them curiously.
Suddenly, Tang Ru made a move. Tong Nuonuo turned her head to look at her and saw Tang Ru taking out a storage bag and preparing to take something out.
"Wait a minute! Don't show off your wealth." Tong Nuonuo knew what she was going to do at first glance. She wanted to count her wealth to see if it was enough.
He looked around vigilantly and moved forward to block the view from the side. Tang Ru looked at him helplessly, and Tong Nuonuo insisted on holding her arm and twisting it around.
Under the cover of the two people, Tang Ru opened his storage bag and took out all his spirit stones, spirit beads and spirit coins.
Tong Nuonuo didn't count on her. She would often count a few less or more out of a hundred. She hadn't made any progress in all these years. It could only be said that she was born with some kind of defect.
Tong Nuonuo finished counting quickly and immediately understood why Tang Ru had that look just now.
A cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage only had sixteen spirit stones, more than a hundred spirit beads, and a few spirit coins. Is this reasonable? !
Tong Nuonuo stuffed the things back into the storage bag tiredly, and was too lazy to think about how Tang Ru had ended up in this situation.
Decades ago, when Luo Bei found the Broken Star Sand, each of them dug a lot of salt soil, and the fine Broken Star Sand that was sifted out was worth at least one or two thousand spirit stones.
In addition, the two of them traveled to various realms dozens of times, and they could make a lot of money by selling the spoils they occasionally obtained.
But once they meet again after being separated for a period of time, Tang Ru will only have a little money on him, not much.
Tong Nuonuo is famous for becoming a master of mechanisms at a young age in the foundation-building stage, while Tang Ru is famous in a certain circle of unscrupulous businessmen for his "smart face and stupid mind".
To cheat money from her, you don't need to commit laborious fraud or deception. You only need to use some complicated and tedious calculations to confuse her and then take advantage of her.
Usually by the time Tang Ru realized she was being scammed, the scammer had already run away. In some cases, Tang Ru still hadn't realized she was being scammed.
Tang Ru is a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, and she also has a unique and rare poisonous spiritual root. Logically speaking, no one would dare to offend her easily. But the cost of tricking her is too low, and the reward is too great!
If they cheat her once, they won't have to open their business for several years. The benefits make these people bold and willing to take risks. If they are caught, they will die at most. If they are not caught, it will be a windfall!
It didn't take much for this kind of thing to make Tang Ru angry. But she couldn't help but wandering around the bustling streets of Feiyan City, where she would be ripped off every now and then.
Tang Ru also tried to save her mathematics, but it turned out that she really didn't have that kind of stubbornness.
Tong Nuonuo concluded that God gave her a single spiritual root of the highest quality, but took away the ability related to mathematics.
After hearing this, Tang Ru, who was very sad and desperate at the time, finally felt a little better.
Tong Nuonuo stuffed the storage bag to Tang Ru. Although he didn't say anything, his expression made Tang Ru feel a little upset.
"To issue a bounty mission for more than a hundred people, a deposit of one hundred spirit stones is required. This amount is definitely not enough." Tang Ru said in a low voice.
"Yeah." Tong Nuonuo responded absentmindedly. He turned his head towards the gate of Zhishitang, not knowing what he was looking at.
Tang Ru sighed, put away the storage bag, and continued to squat on his knees.
It's no wonder that these two people are at a loss. Compared with their peers in the same industry, and compared with those with the same talents and cultivation, they are completely at the bottom of the economic ladder and are extremely poor.
Tang Ru was thinking about something when Tong Nuonuo beside her suddenly said to her mysteriously, "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon. By the way, give me five spirit stones first."
Tang Ru gave him almost one-third of his spiritual stones without any hesitation, "Where are you going?"
Tong Nuonuo pointed at the gate of Zhishitang and sent a voice message to her: "I'll go and ask if there is any way to form a team without forming a team or without going through Zhishitang."
This means taking extraordinary channels.
Tang Ru had great confidence in Tong Nuonuo's ability to eavesdrop, and immediately said, "Go quickly." Then, she asked a little worriedly, "Do you want me to accompany you in?" The structure inside Zhishi Hall is very complicated, and a normal person would have to come several times to avoid getting lost.
Tong Nuonuo said: "It's more convenient for one person to go than two people for this kind of thing."
Tang Ru had no choice but to wait for him here alone from morning till afternoon, before Tong Nuonuo sent her a communication talisman.
When Tang Ru walked around the huge Zhishi Hall and came to a small door at the back and saw Tong Nuonuo, he couldn't help but wonder, "I've been going back and forth in Feiyan City for so many years, but this is the first time I know that Zhishi Hall has a back door! What took you so long? Did you get any information?"
Tong Nuonuo said angrily, "I just happened to come here and found a door here." He returned the four spirit stones to Tang Ru, "It took a long time to find the right person. I only spent one spirit stone to give it to you. Go first, don't stand here and talk."
The two of them left the street and walked to another block. Tong Nuonuo said to Tang Ru, "I found a method that suits us. We can go through Guangji's portal. However, there are too many uncertain factors. I can't decide alone. I must ask your opinion."
Tang Ru was pleasantly surprised and said, "Is there any need to ask? Of course I agree."
Tong Nonuo pulled her into an empty alley, stopped and spoke to her seriously, "You know, Zhishitang has a blacklist. Once you are on the blacklist, you can't pass through the vortex portal normally. What should those who are on the blacklist do if they want to pass through? They have to use some extraordinary means, at a specific time and with the help of specific people, to go to other heavens."
Tang Ru had been away from the simple environment of the village for decades and felt that he had a wide range of knowledge, but this was the first time he had heard of such dark content.
Tang Ru frowned, "Will there be any traces left behind?"
Tong Nuonuo said affirmatively, "No. I have asked, as long as we can find the way, we can get a temporary fake identity and pass through the vortex portal smoothly. The best thing is that this group of people also have connections with the evil cultivators, so we don't need to go through the barriers and can directly enter Guangji!"
Being able to enter Guangji without fighting was too tempting for Tang Ru. She said excitedly: "So, even if there are only two of us, we can still go!" Tong Nuonuo nodded.
But then Tang Ru had a new question, "Since there is such a convenient method, why don't everyone go through this extraordinary way to enter the evil realm, but instead go through the trouble of forming a team to break in?"
Tong Nuonuo said: "I didn't ask. But I think, if the Zhishitang team enters Guangji through this way, wouldn't it be announced to the world that Zhishitang has a secret connection with the evil cultivators? Zhishitang certainly doesn't want to bear such a stigma. So, no matter how many casualties there are, no matter how many people die, the Taoists have no choice but to go through it."
Tang Ru didn't realize until now that they were going to deal with the evil ways and use the evil ways to get to Guangji. Ever since the evil ways came to her hometown and abducted young children to practice evil ways, she hated them to the core.
This time, she had to rely on the relationship between evil ways and evil cultivators to successfully pass through the portal, which made it difficult for her to accept it for a while.
Tong Nuonuo knew that she was feeling uncomfortable, so he held her shoulders and whispered, "Taoists will not take the initiative to contact evil ways unless it is absolutely necessary. We are doing this so that we can find Xiaoxiao's whereabouts."
Tang Ru was silent for a moment, her eyes became firm, and she clenched her fists, "Everything for Xiaoxiao!"
After reaching an agreement, Tong Nuonuo told Tang Ru the address. The two of them did not rest and arrived at their destination in the twilight.
This is a wine shop located in a busy area, with a shop in front and a workshop in the back. Wine is sold in the front and brewed in the back.
The two of them walked along the corridor leading to the back into the backyard, and no one stopped them. The backyard was large, with people coming and going, including workers making wine and merchants picking up goods.
Avoiding the man holding a large wine jar, Tang Ru said in a voice transmission: "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have believed that there is such a filthy place in Feiyan City!"
Tong Nuonuo sent a message to her, saying, "As long as you find the right person and give him money, you can find out about this kind of place. That's not the difficulty. The most difficult part is dealing with the evil people here. We have to make the other party let down his guard and let him agree to let us use that channel."
Tang Ru sighed, "I'm afraid it will cost a lot of spirit stones."
Tong Nuonuo said: "It's definitely less than paying the deposit."
Tang Ru was speechless. It was all because of the spirit stones that things had ended up like this!
Tong Nuonuo looked around. The person he bribed only told him about the wine shop, but didn't tell him how to contact him or who to find. He didn't bother to ask. The location was a price, but the specific person was a price he couldn't afford.
Tong Nuonuo was not worried about not being able to find anyone. Just like he had a talent for mechanical engineering, he always had good luck when it came to finding out key information.
He was confident that his luck would be good this time.
But when he saw the figure standing next to a pillar in front of him, the familiar outline and natural curly hair made him stiffen involuntarily.
...Sometimes, even when good luck comes, he is not so happy!
