Chapter 379: Spiritual Suffering



When the team looking for the flower-thorn pigs arrived at the scene of the explosion, they saw Zhong's father holding a brand new crossbow and shooting arrows steadily. The most shocking thing was the boy beside him, who actually cooperated with his father in smashing talismans. Some talismans were not even in the right direction, and they were smashed off, and he quickly smashed out a second one to make up for it.

Soon, the four flower-thorn pigs in the nest fell down, smashing a lot of dust. Zhong Chen, who had eaten a mouthful of dust, spat twice.

"No, that kid isn't a cultivator, how can he use talismans? He even smashed several of them in a row, could it be some new talisman that we can use as well?"

The Zhong family father and son, who were about to pack up their prey, heard the noise behind them and immediately turned around to look at them warily. The crossbow in the hands of Zhong's father was tightly held, ready to attack at any time if the opponent showed any signs of weakness, and Zhong Chen even grabbed a stack of talismans.

No, even Zhong's father had a few talismans in his hands, which shocked the hunting team even more.

"Zhong Hai," a man walked out of the team. He was an old acquaintance of Zhong Hai, and also the father of Sun Lei whom Zhong Chen met that day. "Where did you make such a fortune to get a new weapon and this talisman? Could it be that it was newly launched by some talisman master?"

"Yes, Zhong Hai, I heard that you found a job, so why are you back to hunting outside the city?" The other people in the team looked at the crossbow in Zhong's father's hand with greedy eyes. This crossbow was of extremely high quality. They just saw that it could shoot through a thorny boar with one arrow. With such a crossbow, what would they be afraid of when hunting outside?

They didn't know that this was a top-grade spiritual weapon specially equipped for Zhong's father by Gu Yao and Chi Changye.

Father Zhong said in a deep voice: "These flower-thorn pigs are exactly what our employer wants. The weapons and the method of using the magic talismans are also provided by the employer. The weapons must be returned to the employer after we go back. If you have nothing else to do, please get out of the way."

Father Sun asked persistently: "Zhong Hai, can you tell us what the difference is between the magic talismans you use and others?"

"There is no difference. The difference is that we can use other things to mobilize spiritual power. Ah Chen, quickly put away the flower-thorn pigs." Father Zhong was still alert to them. Zhong Chen ran over quickly, put the four flower-thorn pigs in a special bag, and moved them to the car. Father Zhong slowly retreated to the car. Zhong Chen drove away, and then Father Zhong relaxed his guard and

laughed They were putting on a show for others, so of course they took some risks. However, with the equipment Gu Yao gave them, he still believed that even if the other party wanted to take action, they would not get the result they wanted.

Zhong Chen said excitedly: "Dad, what are we going to hunt next? This bug is so powerful. With this bug and the talisman, we can kill many wild beasts."

Zhong's father patted him on the back of his head: "The ancients said that these are just external things, and cultivation still depends on oneself. Besides, without the ancients, do you think you can afford this Lingyuan Dragon and the talisman?"

Zhong Chen laughed. He was a little afraid of the bug at first, but now he likes it. He and his father both have the mark of a Lingyuan Dragon on the back of their hands. It is the Lingyuan Dragon that signed a contract with them that is lurking in their hands. So it is better to say that they ordered the Lingyuan Dragon to activate the talisman rather than using it.

With these equipments, the father of the Zhong family, who had a clumsy leg and was not very mobile, could hunt wild beasts on the grasslands.

This kind of scene happened in many places on this day. The situation of the father and son of the Zhong family attracted the attention of many teams. In the next two days, the father and son of the Zhong family would still go out of the city to hunt wild beasts. Every time they went out, they had a lot of harvests, which attracted the attention of more and more body-cultivators, and they secretly inquired about the situation of their employer.

After three days, the father and son of the Zhong family stopped their hunting and stayed in the store.

The wild beast meat they hunted was not sold, but used as a dish for lunch.

Mr. Zhong’s cooking skills are pretty good, especially the barbecue he makes, which tastes very good, so Gu Yao and Chi Chang Ye ate barbecue slices in the new Gu Chi store.

“It’s this store, Zhong Hai and his son work in this store, I saw the same bugs in the store as the ones in the hands of Zhong Hai and his son.”

After observing it several times, I can probably guess that the changes in the Zhong family father and son are somewhat related to the bug.

Everyone in the store heard the noise outside, and Zhong Hai and his son were excited, which really attracted people.

Among the group of people who came in was Sun’s father, whom Mr. Zhong met for the first time, and his teammates. Not only their team, but also people from other teams came. They must have sent people to explore the details of the store first.

The situation of cultivators like Sun's father is much better than that of the Zhong father and son. They all have a family behind them, with at least a dozen people and at most dozens of people. They can also control a lot of property. If anyone gets into an accident, it will not affect the entire family much. But it is different for the Zhong father and son. Once Zhong's father falls, this small family will completely collapse, unless Zhong Chen has a fortuitous encounter.

Father Sun pretended to have just spotted Father Zhong and greeted him enthusiastically: "Zhong Hai, it's really you. You and your son are really helping out in this store. Can you tell us about the things you sell?"

On one of the display shelves, there were several fat white insects. They noticed with their sharp eyes that one of the insects was holding a spirit stone and gnawing it. The seemingly harmless insect could actually gnaw away the very hard spirit stone.

"Okay." Father Zhong came out from the counter and introduced the items on the display shelf to them one by one, starting with the elixirs. The ancient generation really knew how to refine elixirs. Whether it was the seventh-grade or sixth-grade elixir, in Father Zhong's opinion, it was no worse than the elixirs he had used before, and the quality was all in the middle or upper grades.

Gu Yao said that they hardly saw cultivators like them in the place where they used to stay, so Father Zhong sometimes wondered how Gu Yao refined these elixirs. Could it be that they actually had such elixirs for sale there? The absence of cultivators did not mean that there were no cultivators. As far as he knew, there were some here, but the cultivators were not very willing to spend time on refining their bodies.

What the Zhong family father and son didn't know was that Gu Yao bought all the elixirs he saw and analyzed them. He also bought all the books on elixir that he could buy. Although the explanations in the books were relatively superficial, he could still get a glimpse of the tricks. In addition, he also had some experience in body refining, so he quickly made elixirs with various functions, and healing elixirs were even easier.

Of course, he didn't want to just sell elixirs. He opened this shop for fun. He wanted to make it a comprehensive shop that sold a little bit of everything, including elixirs, magic talismans, weapons, arrays, etc. If he didn't know how to do it himself, he could hire others to do it with high salaries.

Of course, he had to make a name for himself first to attract talents to join.

Grandfather Zhong and his friends didn't care about the elixirs and talismans. They could buy them in this shop and other shops. Just when they were getting impatient, they finally came to the display shelf of insects.

"What is this insect? Why is it also put out for sale?"

"Ahem," Zhong's father cleared his throat, "This is a Lingyuan Gu."

"What is a Lingyuan Gu?"

Zhong's father continued to explain: "Lingyuan Gu is a kind of insect, cultivated from spiritual objects, specializing in eating spiritual stones for a living, and accumulating spiritual power in the body. The larger the body, the more spiritual power it accumulates, but it is harmless."

Father Sun immediately thought of the Lingyuan Gu in the hands of the Zhong father and son, and asked impatiently: "Can we subdue this insect called Lingyuan Gu and then mobilize the spiritual power in its body? Can you use the talismans of the monks? Is it achieved through this insect?"

The breathing of the others also quickened, and they stared at Father Zhong closely. Zhong Hai thought that they were all hooked, and smiled: "That's right. This is something our boss made. A few days ago, he asked my father and me to go out of the city to try it out. It is indeed useful."

Father Sun rushed to ask: "How many spirit stones does this insect cost? I want one, and I also want the talisman."

"Yes, I also want one to try out the effect." Others couldn't wait to say.

Father Zhong soothed them, "Take your time. If you want to buy a Lingyuan Dragon, you can get one as long as you pay enough spirit stones. Lingyuan Dragons are also divided into grades. The ones here are only of the seventh and sixth grades. It is not easy to cultivate a Lingyuan Dragon, and the quantity is limited. If you want to buy one, you must act quickly."

"The price varies depending on the quality. This seventh-grade primary one is sold for one high-quality spirit stone, and this one that is close to the advanced level is ten high-quality spirit stones. The price of the sixth-grade one is more expensive. This one is only one hundred high-quality spirit stones, and this one is ten thousand high-quality spirit stones."

When the final price was announced, the people in the shop gasped. Ten thousand high-quality spirit stones? The price was too expensive, but it had a reason. This thing was not a one-time consumable item. As long as you were alive, you could continuously provide spiritual power.

This price made people hesitate. Besides, they would not carry so many spiritual stones with them, so they left one after another after looking for a while. Some people bought some commonly used elixirs. It didn't matter where they bought them. The price of the same grade of elixirs here was very affordable.

Zhong Chen stood beside his father and blinked. He was a little disappointed to see that they only asked but didn't buy anything. But at least the business was open. They sold some elixirs, and they still won by the price.

After the people left, he hurriedly asked: "Dad, will they really buy it?"

If it were him, he would also want such a good thing, especially after personally experiencing it, he knew that the Lingyuan Dragon was really a good thing, but he couldn't afford the cheapest Lingyuan Dragon.

Father Zhong smiled and said: "Wait, someone will come to buy it."

He and his son went to the scene of the trial outside the city. Many teams saw it. Some teams were still relatively wealthy. As long as they were equipped with a Lingyuan Dragon, the combat effectiveness of the entire team would be greatly improved.

Sure enough, not long after, someone came with spiritual stones and bought the one that cost 100 top-grade spiritual stones. He also agreed with the store owner that if there was a problem with the Lingyuan Dragon, they would come to the store to be responsible. Gu Yao would certainly not refuse.
