“Knock, knock.”
Before Gao Han could calm down, there was a knock on the door. When he went out, Zhongli Tingzhou was standing outside.
In the restaurant behind him, the table had already been cleared. He felt relieved and his tone became a little gentler. "What's wrong?"
Zhongli Tingzhou noticed his strangeness and paused, "You have been in the room for at least three hours."
Gao Han was stunned for a moment. Has it been so long? He looked at the time and found that three hours had passed. It turned out that they had been chatting for such a long time. He knew it was quite a long time, but he didn't expect it.
"It seems that you have accepted those relatives of the Yuan family." Zhongli Tingzhou pointed out this fact without hesitation.
"They are indeed different from the other members of the Yuan family." Gao Han neither admitted nor denied it.
But to Zhongli Tingzhou, it sounded like an admission. Gao Han was a very vigilant person, and the fact that he could accept it all at once showed that those things were really good.
In the future, those members of the Yuan family may become one of the most important people in Gao Han's heart.
Zhongli Tingzhou frowned. Would he and Gao Han need their consent for anything they did in the future?
"What's wrong with you?" Gao Han noticed his little movements but didn't notice what he was thinking.
Zhongli Tingzhou returned to his expressionless look, "Nothing, I have packed up what you asked me to do."
"I saw it." Gao Han hummed. His intuition told him that he must have been thinking about something just now, and it was related to Yuan Yuxian and the others.
Recently, he felt that Zhongli Tingzhou was becoming more and more weird, but unfortunately he didn't have an antenna that could connect to his brain waves.
He didn't say it, and he couldn't guess it, so he just shook his head and gave up.
Anyway, Zhongli Tingzhou will tell it sooner or later when he can't hold it back anymore.
The next day, Gao Han received the materials sent by Wu Zheng.
Wu Zheng originally wanted to give him money, but he thought it would be better to exchange it for materials. He let the other party exchange all the money for the spiritual weapon for the materials he needed according to the price.
Wu Zheng was also very straightforward. This was not a big deal. They were selling materials for refining equipment, and it would be more cost-effective to exchange money for materials.
However, Wu Zheng wanted to make friends with Gao Han, so he exchanged all the materials for him at the original price.
A lower-level spiritual weapon, especially one with high spiritual light, good quality, and high talisman level, can be sold for hundreds of millions without any problem. It will be even higher at auction. Wu Zheng also knew that he got a bargain, so he was very generous when giving the materials.
When Gao Han received the things, he had more than a dozen storage items in his hands.
If the quantity is rare, put several kinds in one storage prop. If the quantity is relatively large, just put one separately.
After sending the people away, Gao Han checked the materials and found that if these materials were calculated based on the cost price, they would be worth 100 million yuan. He did not suffer much loss and nodded with satisfaction.
He opened another smaller storage prop and took out a shiny object from it. It was aqua blue and very beautiful.
"Is this the crystal core of the mutant creature?"
Holding it in his hand, Gao Han felt a surge of energy in the crystal core, and this was just a lower-level crystal core.
Hearing his words, Zhongli Tingzhou turned around and saw the crystal core in his hand. "This should be a crystal core. It can not only be used to refine weapons, but also absorb and cultivate. You can try it now."
Gao Han tried, using the method of absorbing spirit beads, to try to absorb the crystal core.
The bright light on the surface of the crystal core quickly dimmed as he absorbed it.
It was a little different from Lingzhu. His cultivation had increased a little. Apart from that, he also felt that he was a little clearer-eyed and clearer-eared than before, but the change was not very obvious.
Gao Han absorbed the remaining energy in the crystal core. In the end, not only did the crystal core lose its light, but the crystal also became extremely fragile. With a slight closure of his fingers, the crystal core shattered into powder.
"This kind of crystal core, with the same properties, seems to be able to increase spiritual energy and expand the meridians. It is indeed very different from the spirit bead."
"I'm going to try it now to see what changes will occur if the crystal core is added to the refining equipment."
Gao Han couldn't wait to try it, so he left Zhongli Tingzhou and went back to his room.
This retreat lasted until two days before the main disaster area training.
During this period, Zhongli Tingzhou had been guarding outside his room, and occasionally felt a energy escaping from the room.
After coming out, Gao Han's aura was obviously calmer and more solid.
"I'm going to the business department. By the way, have you told your family that you are going to the main disaster area?" he asked when he saw Zhongli Tingzhou there.
Zhongli Tingzhou gave him a look that asked him why he told them.
Gao Han thought about his character and stopped asking. With his self-willed personality, he really didn't seem like the kind of person who would talk.
Without letting Zhongli Tingzhou accompany him, Gao Han came to the business department by himself.
There were not many people in the business department, and Teacher Chen was a little bored, but when he saw Gao Han, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Mr. Gao, I haven't seen you for a while. What do you want to buy this time?"
"Teacher Chen, I want to ask about the news of the top-level talisman."
He hasn't used up all the top-grade talismans he bought on the underground black market last time, but he doesn't want to go to the underground black market. The last time he went out with Zhongli Tingzhou, he met people who wanted to kill him. If he really dared to go, those people would definitely take action.
It hadn't been long since Gao's father came over, and Gao Han knew that it would probably be difficult to cast the top-level talisman.
Teacher Chen showed a helpless expression when he heard it, "Now let alone the top-level talismans, even the superior talismans are out of stock again."
"Because the third graders are going to the main disaster area?"
Teacher Chen gave an unexpected answer, "It would be great if it were true. In fact, many students cannot buy high-level talismans. I don't know what the Yuan family is doing recently. Their monopoly is getting bigger and bigger."
"Although it has little impact on most family forces, some students will suffer. The main disaster area is so dangerous, and they are not fully prepared. If they lose their lives, the school will also suffer."
Gao Han didn't expect the Yuan family to go too far. "Is there no solution?"
"We have thought of a solution a long time ago. We do have it, but the demand is insufficient to meet the supply."
Gao Han was about to say something, but when he noticed the smile that flashed across Teacher Chen's eyes, he suddenly stopped being anxious and asked, "There should be a solution already."
Teacher Chen looked up in surprise. "You guessed it. It's true. Several students found an online store selling talismans on the spiritual network. There are many high-level talismans on the shelves."
Gao Han immediately thought of Gao’s parents’ online store. It couldn’t be such a coincidence, so he asked if the online store was called Gao’s Talisman Shop.
"You also know this online store?" said Teacher Chen.
Gao Han saw that he didn't seem to know anything about it, "It's an online store opened by my parents."
Teacher Chen was silent for a moment, staring at him with strange eyes for a while, "Everyone in your family is really amazing."
Gao Han laughed, "Fortunately, my dad just has some talent in this area."
"To have so many high-level talismans is not as simple as having some talent." Teacher Chen shook his head.
"But your father's online store has indeed solved the problem of many students not being able to buy high-level talismans. If the Yuan family knew about this, they would probably be furious again."
"They are disrupting the talisman market this time, most likely because of the main disaster area, so be careful."
"I remember now. Thank you, Teacher Chen, for reminding me." Gao Han nodded. "What about the top-level spell..."
"I'll keep an eye out for you, but top-level talismans have relatively high requirements for talisman paper, so it may not be that easy to get. When you go to the main disaster area this time, you can pay attention to the blue-skinned wood heart, which is the main material for top-level talisman paper." Instructor Chen reminded again.
Gao Han thanked them again and left the business department. On the way, he heard some students talking about the Gao family talisman shop.
When they returned to the villa, they asked Zhongli Tingzhou and his family, who were glaring at Fugui, to go back to the military compound.
"Go home and tell Patriarch Zhongli, at least tell them as a family. I'll go talk to my parents about something."
When they arrived at the gate of the compound, they had a safe journey. The Yuan family did not send anyone to stop them, and the people from the evil spirit did not dare to show up. They sent Zhongli Tingzhou home, and Gao Han went to find Gao's father and mother.
I told them about the situation at school and that we would be going to the main disaster area the day after tomorrow.
"A lot of students came to the online store to buy high-level talismans. Your father worked overtime to get a lot of them out, and asked your aunt to get a lot as well to ensure that there was always stock."
Gao's mother was determined to go against the Yuan family. No matter what plans they had, the two of them were prepared to do the opposite and make the Yuan family angry to death.
Although this method is a bit naive, it is really useful.
Who knows what the Yuan family is doing right now, but the angrier they are, the happier the couple will be.
Yuan Yuxian devoted her entire life to opposing Yuan Zhengshan, and she agreed to Gao's father and mother's decision without much hesitation.
"Tell Dad not to work too hard and take care of his health." Gao Han took out another box of spiritual beads and said, "This is for you. Use it when necessary."
Gao's mother didn't answer. "This is the third box. Where did you get so many spirit beads? As far as I know, some families only have so many."
Gao Han knew that Gao's mother would ask sooner or later, and he didn't intend to hide it, so he told them that he had intercepted the Tang family's money.
"Good interception!" Gao's father shouted excitedly.
Gao's mother was frightened by his voice and turned around to slap him on the shoulder, "Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
Then he turned back to Gao Han and said, "It was indeed a good interception. Mom has long disliked those people in the Tang family."
“These spirit beads can only be used for you to cultivate to the third-level upper level. After that, the effect will be minimal, so there is no need to save them for me.” Gao Han said.
"Mom, I know." This time, Gao's mother took the box of spirit beads without hesitation and gestured to Gao's father.
Father Gao immediately took out a thick stack of talismans and said, "Son, take these. Your mother heard that the main disaster area is very dangerous and is afraid that you might be in danger. These are for you to protect yourself."
Gao Han didn't know how many talismans were in the stack, but he was shocked by the level of the talismans. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So many high-level talismans?"
"Of course it was dad who drew them. Don't worry, I'm in good health now, and with your mom supervising me, dad wouldn't dare to do anything wrong. Just take these talismans with peace of mind. Come to me if you need them again." Father Gao patted his chest, and a rich aura wafted towards him.
