Chapter 3372 Wanbao Tower
“If you don’t want to meditate, can’t you go to a Zen temple?”
Zhou Shu knocked her, "You forgot about the nine-story pagoda, which is what Zen is best at."
Qingque touched his head with a look of surprise on his face, "Ah, are they here to torture you?"
"Not all," Zhou Shu said softly, "In addition to training the mind, there are other reasons. For example, some people come to ask for fortune telling. Compared with ordinary practitioners, there are more people who practice the laws of cause and effect, destiny, etc. in meditation. When confused, some practitioners look to meditation for guidance.”
What did Caiying think of? "You are just like a mortal in the world. You still ask for fortune-telling. Do practitioners also like this?"
"Not everyone likes it."
Qingque shook his head gently, "There are not many such practitioners. Practitioners must trust themselves more and give advice. If you have the conditions, just give it a try. If you don't have the conditions, forget it. Just listen to it. For example, we are in other worlds. In Fairy City, we rarely see this kind of situation.”
"Yes," Zhou Shu followed, "when you see that there are many practitioners in Wu Nian City, you think there are also many such practitioners. That is an illusion. It is just because there are many Zen temples in Wu Nian City and it is inconvenient for practitioners from other realms to go to the immortal world. , you can only come here. In fact, there are very few such practitioners in the heavens, and there may be many already here."
Caiying nodded, but was at a loss.
Zhou Shu said slowly, "Actually, you just need to know that most of the practitioners here are involved in Zen practice."
"If you mess with one, you'll mess with a bunch of people?"
Caiying suddenly realized, "That is to say, if I beat these people behind, the people in the Zen temple will come out to fight against me?"
Zhou Shu shook his head, "There are some exceptions, such as those behind you. Even if you beat them, it will be in vain. Zen Xiu will not stand up for them."
Caiying breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, I just don't like them."
Zhou Shu smiled. He knew it was simple, so there was no need to explain more, but he was still enjoying it. His eyes fell in front of him and he was slightly stunned, "Wanbao Tower? No wonder these words are so special."
Caiying's eyes lit up, "Ah, here we are, that's why we came here."
Qingque nodded, "Yes, the largest merchant in Wu Nian City."
Caiying found a new question, "Zhou, why is it so special?"
"With the image of a saint, don't you think that even Zen power can't get close to the area around that plaque?"
Zhou Shu looked at the splendid archway and seemed thoughtful, "It's indeed worth going. This is my first time to the Wanbao Pavilion in Zhutian. I don't know the difference between it and Duobao Pavilion of Ruyi Pavilion. Qing, you should go there too." Have you passed?"
Qingque smiled and said, "The specific difference is not big. They both sell everything. The difference is that everything sold in Wanbao Building is more expensive."
Caiying was stunned, "Why?"
"Shu just told you the answer."
Qingque pointed at the plaque, "Because of those few words, Wanbao Tower was named by a saint and protected by a saint. It has the highest status among the three major merchants, so there is a reason for its high price."
Xiao Su also stared at it, "These words too? This shouldn't be the main building of Wanbao Building, right?"
Qingque said warmly, "Regardless of the main building and its branches, the plaques are all written by saints. It is said that a total of thirty-seven plaques were written by saints at that time. They are somewhat similar to the fragments of the Shangqing Dynasty, the handwriting of Confucian saints and other saints' books. Together, they are so powerful. Yes, the difference is that most of the saint's books are scattered, but the plaque of Wanbao Tower has always been hanging high in Wanbao Tower and has never changed."
Caiying couldn't help but said, "Wow, the Wanbao Building here has such a long history?"
"Of course not."
Qingque smiled unconsciously, "Wunian City has only been established for tens of thousands of years, and the plaque has been there for a long time. It can only be said that Wu Nian City is very capable. It can allow Wanbao Tower to transfer a sub-building to Wanbao Tower. From its inception to now, there are only thirty-seven places, no more, no less.”
Zhou Shu said in surprise, "It's not easy to be ranked one-thirty-seventh of the heavens."
"You said that I am looking forward to it. It seems that there is still a place to play in Wu Nian City. Let's go in quickly."
Caiying had already run over and kept urging.
Xiao Su looked very calm and walked away leisurely, "I've seen this kind of shop many times in the Demon World before. Most of them sell names, but in fact there are no good things inside. It's easy to be fooled."
Zhou Shu stopped next to her, "I've also heard some bad rumors about Wanbao Tower. Let's go and have a look first. Aren't you also looking for seeds and nutrients suitable for growing styrax? If you're lucky, you might be able to find them. It’s burning.”
"Um."
Xiao Su nodded slightly and sighed secretly.
After more than a hundred years, she felt that her chances were extremely slim. She just persisted every day, and she became more and more exhausted.
Zhou Shu glanced at her and said with a smile, "Let's go, I believe in my luck this time."
Xiao Su's mind froze. What's with the encouragement and confidence in Zhou Shu's eyes? Will he really be lucky this time?
Compared with the grandeur outside, the interior of the building is much more elegant, with not many people, mostly Hunyuan Golden Immortals.
Most practitioners probably don't dare to come in. They look at it for a few times, ask the price, and then go back.
The group of people behind Zhou Shu hesitated for a moment, a few people followed in, and the others were waiting outside.
“It’s really expensive!”
Caiying, who was standing in front of a pillar, couldn't help but said, "Such an ordinary fourth-grade flying sword can be sold for 300,000 immortal jade, which is more expensive than an eighth-grade flying sword. Is there a sword spirit in it?"
"With Sword Spirit, the price won't be the same. It will cost at least three times."
A middle-aged scribe approached slowly and said politely, "What this fellow Taoist doesn't know is that the internal material of this Hanxing Sword is very unusual. It was only an accident when the master refining the sword caused the finished product to be downgraded. The value itself is still very high, and in the hands of some people, it is easy to sell it for a higher price. It is still very reasonable for us to sell it for 300,000 yuan."
Caiying blinked, "What's unusual, what's high? It's vague, why don't you explain it clearly."
"Speak clearly and there would be no fun in treasure hunting."
The scribe smiled and said, "We hope that every guest who comes to Wanbao Tower will not just buy treasures."
Caiying snorted and muttered, "It's obviously nothing special."
Xiao Su walked quickly to her side, his eyes fell on the sword, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "It's all mysterious."
The scribe bowed and said with a smile, "You two have your own opinions, so I won't say much. Just take your time and take your time."
Seeing the scribe gradually walking away, Xiao Su was stunned for a moment, feeling a little depressed, "Leaving now? He didn't argue with me. He's lucky, otherwise he wouldn't dare to reply to what I said, huh."
Caiying looked at her and said in surprise, "Xiao Su, are you so good? Then let's go together and bargain together when we see something good."
"OK."
Xiao Su nodded confidently, as if he had regained his previous vigor, "I'm also very good at doing business."
Caiying was surprised, "Ah, you rarely say anything."
"There are always a lot of things to be busy with," Xiao Su smiled, "Actually, when Zhou Shu was in the demon world, he relied on me to help him with his business. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to find so many treasures, and he might even die of poverty."
Speaking of this, she glanced at Zhou Shu unconsciously.
Zhou Shu smiled back and waved after they walked away.
