Chapter 29 Discovering the Treasure
The melon-eating system described the eldest brother as "really going to be in trouble", and when Ning Xu heard this, he understood it as the eldest brother was about to die.
Ning Shu was stunned for a moment, and asked the melon-eating system, "Is he... really hopeless?"
Seeing that Ning Xu finally took the initiative to take care of it again, the melon-eating system said excitedly, "That's not the case, but it will take at least a few hundred years to recuperate. 】A hundred years is considered a long time in the world of cultivation.
After saying that, the melon-eating system muttered, "This is the result of practicing pirated martial arts! 】
[At best, it can be fatal!] 】
Everyone: ...
Ning Xu asked the question that everyone was curious about, "Is the situation of Senior Brother... light or serious?"
The melon-eating system said casually, "He is somewhere between light and heavy. 】
Everyone:! ! !
The eldest senior brother was finally carried away by his fellow junior brothers and sisters. As for where they were taken, Ning Xu had no idea.
Because of this little incident at the welcoming banquet, the banquet ended abruptly.
Many of the delicacies at the banquet were left untouched.
Seeing that the disciples of Wangeng Peak had begun to clean up the mess, Ning Shu stepped forward and said, "Can I take the remaining dishes away?"
The disciple who was cleaning the table was flattered when asked, "Of course, it would be a waste if we don't take these dishes away. Just take whatever you want."
"Thanks."
Ning Xu packed up a lot of the dishes that the melon-eating system had requested. After packing, it was already late, so she said goodbye to her food-cultivating friends and went back to Nanbei Peak.
-
As soon as he returned to his little thatched hut, Ning Xu took out the mutton soup and other food from the storage bag, along with the basin and the soup.
The food at tonight's welcoming banquet is all delicious and tasty. Perhaps it was because of the strong fragrance that Brother Pig took the initiative to change from a lying position to a standing position.
It shrugged its nose and snorted twice, as if signaling Ning Shu to move faster.
Ning Shu was afraid that Brother Pig couldn't wait any longer, so he put all the packed things in front of it.
Soon, she saw with her own eyes what "Wind Sweeping the Canyun" was.
In an instant, that is, the time it took the pig to open and close its mouth, it had eaten most of the food.
"Brother Pig, you..."
Seeing that Brother Pig was eating faster and faster, Ning Shu was stunned for a moment, and then slowly said the following sentence, "Eat slowly."
As soon as she finished her last word, all the delicious food in front of her went into Brother Pig’s stomach.
After eating, Brother Pig turned over and lay back down again.
Ning Xu, "..."
Melon-eating system, [! ! ! 】
A minute passed and Brother Pig didn't move.
A quarter of an hour later, Brother Pig began to snore.
Half an hour passed, and Brother Pig was still sleeping soundly, snoring occasionally. He must be having a sweet dream.
At this time, the melon-eating system couldn't stand it anymore, and it complained loudly, "How come this tonic soup is useless?" ! 】
[Brother Pig, what’s wrong with you? 】
[Are you so pure and untainted by the world?] ! 】
[Don’t you want to give birth to piglets? 】
[Brother Pig, please say something!] 】
In response to the melon-eating system, Brother Pig let out an extremely loud snoring.
-
Maybe it was because of the setback with Brother Pig, the melon-eating system didn’t seem to be in a very good mood for the next two days.
During these two days, it has been muttering about Brother Pig.
[Brother Pig drank so much nourishing soup, why is there no reaction at all? Isn’t it that the food that replenishes the body is not enough? 】
[It can’t be so lazy that it only wants to eat and drink all its life, right? 】
[It’s a ninth-rank spirit beast, not to mention that it might also be…]
The melon-eating system didn’t say anything else.
These words have been repeated over and over again in the past two days.
Ning Xu paid attention to it at first, but later he just let it go. It didn't need a response anyway, it was just a way to vent.
It wasn't until the day when the sect held a black market that the melon-eating system became active again.
It took the initiative to ask, "Host, you have already exchanged the Disguise Pill from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall. What disguise are you going to adopt this time?" 】
Ning Xu didn't answer, but she quickly told the melon-eating system the answer with her actions.
When she succeeded in disguising herself, the melon-eating system exclaimed, "So handsome?" 】
Ning Xu turned around and admired his new look. "I changed my face based on the model in the game I played before."
At this moment, Ning Xu has disguised himself as a cool guy with long, slightly curly hair, narrow eyes, a cold look, and a scar on his face. But this scar did not detract from this handsome face at all, but instead made it look more solemn. Her female attire had been replaced with a red, white and black male monk's robe, and her height had also increased from 1.7 meters to 1.8 meters.
She had replaced the Mingyue Sword with an ordinary iron sword.
She held the iron sword in her hand with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the ground, which really looked a bit like a male swordsman.
After packing up, Ning Xu took advantage of the fact that no one was around and went directly to the black market with his new face.
After arriving at the black market, she realized that she had not arrived too early. Most of my fellow disciples have already set up their stalls and are calling on others to buy.
The melon-eating system laughed and said, "Let me see what good treasures are here. 】
While the melon-eating system was observing everywhere, Ning Xu walked inside. Along the way, she walked and stopped, occasionally looking at the things sold by her fellow disciples. Most of them were common things, but occasionally she would come across a few things that Ning Xu had never seen before.
Ning Xu would ask the melon-eating system about things he had never seen before.
When she passed by an empty seat, she sat down and started selling the explosive symbols she had drawn.
The Exploding Talisman is priced at one hundred low-grade spirit stones per piece, which is quite reasonable.
The blasting talisman of the same level sells for 300 low-grade spirit stones outside, and the effect is not as good as hers.
Her Exploding Talisman is praised by everyone who has used it!
This time, Ning Xu can be considered to be giving back to the sect.
With her explosive talisman, the survival rate of her fellow disciples in the secret realm will be much higher. For a cultivator to practice Taoism, he must first have a life before he can talk about other things, otherwise, everything will be in vain.
I don’t know if it was because his fellow disciples knew the value of their goods or for some other reason, but the explosive talismans that Ning Shu displayed were sold out in a short while.
Those who didn’t buy anything sighed and regretted not coming earlier.
I put the Exploding Talisman into my storage bag the moment I bought it.
Ning Xu paused for a few seconds, and said to the melon-eating system in his mind, "...our fellow disciples seem to be quite knowledgeable. If we want to pick up a bargain, it probably won't be easy."
After observing for a while, the melon-eating system agreed, "It's really not easy. 】
[I have scanned all of the tens of thousands of stalls. 】
Ning Xu didn't expect the melon-eating system to be so efficient. He actually managed to understand all the stalls in such a short time.
She didn't say anything, and waited patiently for the next step from the melon-eating system.
The melon-eating system was also not ambiguous and said directly, "It's basically all garbage." 】
[It’s of no value.] 】
After that, it continued, [But...]
Hearing this turn of events, Ning Xu agreed and said, "But what?"
[However, I finally found a treasure among these hundreds of thousands of pieces of garbage. 】
After saying that, the melon-eating system cursed, "Can you believe that there are so many stalls and so many items for sale, but there is only one treasure that can be picked up! There is only one! The Wenxin Sect's luck is really bad. The disciples' fortunes are so bad that they can't even pick up treasures. 】
Ning Xu:! ! !
Everyone:! ! ! Stop cursing, stop cursing.
But, there really is a treasure? !
Ning Shu is content with what she has. She said, "It's good enough to have a treasure."
"Where is the thing? If we go too late, we might not be able to find it."
The melon-eating system said in a few words, [Not really, this treasure... no normal person would want it. 】
No normal person would want that?
Why?
Ning Su couldn't help but have an ominous premonition in his heart.
Although the treasure was found, the melon-eating system showed obvious disgust.
Just like before, it lets Ningxu make his own choice.
[One good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first? 】
Ning Xu chose to hear the good news first this time. Last time, she chose to hear the bad news first and then the good news, but she didn't feel surprised in the end. This time, she chose to do the opposite.
"Let's talk about something good first."
The melon-eating system said directly, [The good news is that the treasure is a hundred-year-old spiritual essence. 】
What? !
A hundred years of spiritual essence?
This thing is full of spiritual energy. A small piece of it can be sold at a sky-high price at an auction!
Ning Shu's ominous premonition became stronger and stronger. "What about the bad news?"
[The bad news is... this piece of century-old spiritual essence has been in the cesspool for hundreds of years and has turned yellow. 】
Ning Shu: ...
Everyone: ...
Patina... yellowing...
The adjectives used to describe the melon-eating system are always so precise and vivid that they immediately give people a sense of the picture.
This reversal silenced even Ning Xu, who was a calm person.
The melon-eating system has been with Ning Xu for such a long time, so of course it knows that she has a little bit of mysophobia.
It's not obvious and doesn't affect anything under normal circumstances, but when something really happens, her little obsession with cleanliness still exists.
For example, Ning Xu most likely would not be able to eat this piece of hundred-year-old spiritual essence.
Not to mention Ning Xu, even the melon-eating system didn't recommend her to eat it. The experience of being in the cesspool for a hundred years has made this hundred-year-old spiritual essence less rare.
Ning Shu was silent for a while, then said, "Tell me about the specific function of this Hundred Years Spirit Essence first."
[It can purify spiritual energy.] Although the effect of a hundred-year-old spiritual essence is not as good as that of a thousand-year-old one, it is already hard to come by. 】
Ning Xu, "Then your suggestion is..."
The melon-eating system said without thinking, "My suggestion is that you pick up the bargain first, and then take this thing to the auction house and let others eat it!" 】Since you can’t do it yourself, why not let other people who don’t know the truth do it? Anyway, when the time comes, I will have the spirit stones, so what can I want? !
Ning Shu: ...
Everyone:! ! !
The melon-eating system is truly an idea you could come up with!
