655 Trading Space Stones
655
After entering the City Lord's Mansion, the two parties exchanged their identities, and Long Kui directly explained his purpose.
"We need to exchange a batch of space stones. I hope that the City Lord can spread the news for us. All cultivators who bring space stones can exchange them for eighth-grade elixirs from us."
After Long Kui finished speaking, Feng Ming, like a little follower, placed a row of elixir bottles next to Long Kui, opened the bottle caps and asked the City Lord to identify them.
At first, when he heard that the visitor needed space stones, the City Lord was shocked, and when he heard about eighth-grade elixirs, he was even more shocked.
He released his soul power to sweep, and then stood up suddenly. The elixir bottles were indeed filled with eighth-grade elixirs, and the quality was extremely high.
Among them was the top-grade Golden Jade Pill. He knew very well how valuable it was, so he immediately asked, "Can I only use Space Stones to exchange for pills? How do I exchange?"
Long Kui said, "One Space Stone for one Grade 8 Pill, how about that?"
"This..." The city lord was a little hesitant. In the big world, Space Stones are actually more precious.
Of course, in the Black Ice Continent, although Space Stones are also precious, Grade 8 pills, especially top-grade ones, are even more rare.
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo looked at each other. Needless to say, this city lord must have Space Stones, but he is not satisfied with the price.
Feng Ming winked at Long Kui, who immediately understood and said, "If the city lord is sincere, I will make an exception and give him a privilege for helping us. He can exchange one space stone for two eighth-grade pills, but the quality of the space stone needs to be guaranteed, and the city lord can only use his own space stone to exchange."
This is to prevent the city lord from being a second-hand dealer.
The city lord was a little hesitant just now, but when he heard that the price of the space stone had doubled, he no longer needed to consider it.
He immediately said, "Okay, I agree. Everyone wait a moment. I will go and get the space stone to trade."
The city lord left his men to entertain the guests, and he went to the warehouse to get the space stone.
The men who stayed behind looked at the pill bottles that Feng Ming had put away again, and they were very reluctant to part with them. They also wanted to trade.
The city lord went and came back quickly, and soon he brought back three space stones. Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo were both surprised. Who would have thought that coming for the Dark Owl Pirates would yield such a big harvest.
Feng Ming took out the pill bottle again and let the city lord choose six eighth-grade pills from these pills.
He claimed that all the eighth-grade pills were here, and first come first served.
In other words, the cultivator who traded first had the right to choose, and the cultivators who came later had no choice.
The city lord acted without hesitation and picked four pills that would help him improve his cultivation. There were two left, one Nirvana Pill and one pill to consolidate his Nirvana cultivation.
The Lord of the City was very satisfied with the transaction, and Long Kui said that this privilege was limited to the Lord of the City, and the cultivators behind could only exchange one space stone for one eighth-grade pill.
The Lord of the City, who was satisfied, was very diligent in doing things for the few people, and immediately arranged for the people in the City Lord's Mansion to spread the news as soon as possible.
At this time, the cultivators in the city were still gathered outside, talking about the shuttle above and the cultivators who entered the City Lord's Mansion, guessing their intentions.
As a result, before they dispersed, news came out from the City Lord's Mansion.
"These cultivators came to our Black Ice Continent to trade space stones? One space stone can be exchanged for one eighth-grade pill? The cultivators who arrive first not only have the priority to choose, but can also trade for top-grade eighth-grade pills?"
This news immediately caused an uproar in the city. No one expected that the purpose of these foreign cultivators was this.
Many cultivators who saw the excitement and did not have space stones themselves turned around and tried their best to spread the news for the visitors.
So before long, some forces and cultivators outside the city got the news.
In order to verify the authenticity of the news, some cultivators rushed here.
The cultivators in the city moved to teahouses and wine shops to discuss the matter.
Many cultivators thought that using space stones to trade for eighth-grade pills, especially top-grade ones, was a very cost-effective transaction.
Because most cultivators have no use for the Space Stone, which is far inferior to the elixir that can improve their cultivation.
"I remember that Old Man Liu in our city once got a Space Stone on the Black Ice Field. Do you think he would use this Space Stone to trade for elixirs?"
"Yes, yes, I remember it too. I would have forgotten it if you didn't mention it. I remember that Old Man Liu went deep into the Black Ice Field many times for his son, but it's a pity that he hasn't been able to completely cure his son until now."
"Look, the person running to the City Lord's Mansion over there is Old Man Liu, right? He really brought the Space Stone to the City Lord's Mansion to ask for elixirs."
"Of course, is there a master of alchemy among the foreign cultivators who came this time?"
"Maybe this pill was purchased by someone outside. You know, in the big world, the eighth-grade pill is not rare, only in our Black Ice Continent. Unfortunately, few cultivators from the big world come to our Black Ice Continent. This time it must be."
After negotiating the matter of using space stones to trade for the eighth-grade pill, the City Lord's Mansion arranged for Long Kui and his party to stay in the guest house for entertaining distinguished guests, and there were also special people to run errands for them.
Feng Ming and his party had just settled down when a cultivator got the news and came to the door.
Feng Ming was also surprised: "Someone came to trade pills so quickly?"
This efficiency is too high. Feng Ming was surprised and happy at the same time. The higher the efficiency, the better, and they will get more space stones.
Long Kui waved his hand and said, "Bring the person in."
Immediately, someone brought the cultivator who came to see him in. Feng Ming and the others saw an old man who looked extremely miserable, even his eyes looked like that.
This was obviously a cultivator who had encountered troubles, otherwise he would not be tortured by life like this.
As soon as the visitor saw Long Kui and his party, he took out the space stone from his storage ring and hurriedly said, "I have a space stone, but I want to ask for a pill that can heal my son."
Long Kui looked at the cultivator who brought this person in in confusion. The cultivator's surname was Zhao, and he was naturally very familiar with Old Man Liu. He introduced:
"This is Fellow Daoist Liu. He has an only son. He once went deep into the black ice field and was bitten by poisonous insects on the black ice field. He was poisoned, and after many treatments, he can only save his life now, but cannot completely eliminate the toxins in his body. Fellow Daoist Liu is also eager to save his son, and he wants to try as long as there is a way."
Long Kui shrugged and looked at Feng Ming. The decision had to be made by him.
Feng Ming came out from the back and said, "Can you bring the person here? I need to see the person and know what kind of poison he has been poisoned with, so that I can treat the poison accordingly."
Liu Laoer's eyes lit up: "Are you a master of alchemy?"
"Yes, I am an alchemist. Bring the person here."
Liu Laoer responded hurriedly, dropped the space stone and turned around and ran away.
Zhao Xiuzhe, who was running errands, was shocked. Could it be that all those pills were made by this cultivator? But how is this possible?
But regardless of whether it was true or not, he was a little respectful to Feng Ming, and said a few words for Old Man Liu: "This Old Man Liu is also like that. He left the Space Stone before exchanging the elixir. He was really worried about his only son. All the Yuanjing earned from going in and out of the Black Ice Field in recent years were used to buy elixirs to maintain the life of his only son."
Feng Ming sighed: "Fellow Daoist Liu is indeed a kind father. I also hope to help them."
Old Man Liu was really eager to save his son, so he quickly moved his son here.
When he came here, the city lord also came.
He also learned about the situation here from his subordinates, so he came to see in person whether Old Man Liu's only son could be completely cured.
The person was sent over. Long Kui and his children all went over to take a look out of curiosity. They all exclaimed as soon as they saw it.
Because Liu Lao'er's son was so miserable. His whole body was covered with black pus cells, and black blood was flowing out of the pus cells. The smell was fishy. This person was really suffering. It was hard for the father and son.
Feng Ming had a certain ability to identify poisons. This was learned from Gong Qian and the inheritance of refining medicine that he had obtained.
Looking at the poison cells, and then carefully distinguishing a little poisonous blood, although it might not be possible to identify what kind of poisonous insect it was, it could more or less identify the nature of the toxin.
Feng Ming had an idea in his mind, and took out a detoxification pill made from the royal jelly of the queen bee, stuffed it into the cultivator's mouth, and used his soul power to help the pill work faster.
After a while, the condition of Liu Laoer's son improved greatly, the swollen pus cells shrank, and the black blood no longer flowed out.
"Is it cured?" The cultivator surnamed Zhao said in surprise.
Liu Laoer also looked at Feng Ming expectantly. It was the first time that a detoxification pill made by a pharmacist could have such a good effect on his son.
Of course it's cured, this is a top-grade detoxification pill.
Feng Ming said, "It's just to relieve his condition. Whether the toxin can be completely removed requires further observation. Just leave him in the guest house so that I can remove the toxin."
Liu Laoer immediately nodded and agreed. As long as his son could be saved, he would be happy to do anything.
He also stayed to look after his son.
The cultivators in the city knew that Liu Laoer sent his son to the City Lord's Mansion, and they were all waiting to see whether the people who stayed in the City Lord's Mansion could really save Liu Laoer's only son.
Feng Ming didn't care about the reaction of the cultivators outside. After Liu Laoer's son completely absorbed the power of the detoxification pill, he analyzed the stubborn toxins remaining in his body again, then ran into the room and refined a furnace of pills.
In fact, it was a poison pill in a sense, using the Gongqian method, using poison to fight poison.
After the pill was refined, Feng Ming gave it to Liu Laoer's son. Not long after, his son woke up and vomited a mouthful of black blood.
Feng Ming quickly stuffed him with a healing pill and a pill to replenish his energy. His meridians, Dantian, and internal organs were all severely corroded by the toxins, and just expelling the poison was not enough to completely cure him.
After taking three pills, Liu Laoer's son's complexion faded from black at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually became rosy. Liu Laoer excitedly hugged his son and cried.
The city lord and the cultivator surnamed Zhao looked at Feng Ming with different eyes. Although the pills Feng Ming took out for treatment twice were not eighth-grade pills, the four pills before and after were all seventh-grade top-grade pills.
Even if those eighth-grade pills were not made by him, his medicine-making level was extremely high, surpassing the current medicine-making masters on the Black Ice Continent.
He could cure what others could not.
No one was optimistic that Liu Laoer's son could survive, but he was cured now.
Liu Laoer pulled his son over, wanting his son to kowtow to Feng Ming to thank him. Although he paid a reward, he still regarded him as the lifesaver of both father and son.
Feng Ming quickly lifted up the father and son: "No need, I received the reward, it is my duty to treat you, not to mention that I didn't even use the eighth-grade pill."
Liu Laoer said gratefully: "Benefactor, for me, my son's recovery is more useful than any amount of space stones. If the space stone can't be exchanged for the pill to treat my son, it is just a piece of useless stone."
Liu Laoer and his son expressed gratitude again and again before saying goodbye and leaving.
When leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Liu Laoer wiped away his past gloomy expression and became very happy.
His son strode beside him as if he had never been injured or poisoned.
All the cultivators who saw it were amazed that he was actually cured.
Many cultivators came forward to inquire, and Liu Laoer and his son took the opportunity to promote their benefactor.
Therefore, all the cultivators who wanted to ask for elixirs turned to find space stones.
There was no other way. The people who lived in the City Lord's Mansion specifically asked for space stones to exchange for elixirs.
They didn't care about other treasures, and came only for the space stones.
For a time, the reputation of the few foreign cultivators who lived in the City Lord's Mansion became even more famous.
Old Liu personally confirmed that among the cultivators there was a very good master of refining medicine, and it was his elixir that completely cured his son.
The cultivators from all sides who were still waiting and watching before came to ask for a meeting.
However, the first wave was stopped by cultivator Zhao. They had to verify the space stone first before they could trade the eighth-grade elixir in front of the distinguished guest.
Some cultivators also brought valuables to ask for pills, but all such cultivators were stopped. Only one cultivator was allowed to enter because he brought a space stone.
Many people recognized this cultivator, and no one thought that he had quietly collected a space stone. When he walked out of the guest house, he was smiling.
With the first cultivator who successfully traded, there was a second and a third. Unlike the previous old man Liu, the latter ones all traded for top-grade eighth-grade pills.
Some people said that Liu Laoer was at a loss, because the eighth-grade pills were more valuable than the several seventh-grade pills his son got.
But Liu Laoer was not affected at all. Could the eighth-grade pills cure his son? If they couldn't, it would be useless to him.
Not long after, the first cultivator from outside arrived in the city and went to the guest house without stopping. He traded a top-grade Nirvana Pill from the guest house as he wished.
The cultivators in the city still gathered in the teahouse and wine house to discuss this matter and counted for the distinguished guests in the guest house how many space stones he had traded.
Some people were curious: "What do these distinguished guests trade so many space stones for?"
In the past, foreign cultivators who came to Hei Ze Continent also traded space stones from local cultivators, but they only traded one or two at most, not like this time.
"No matter what other people do with the space stone, this opportunity is rare. If you miss it, you may not have such a good opportunity in the future."
