Chapter 398

Luo Jin clenched his teeth. The process of purifying the inner energy was uncomfortable. His dantian was like an ocean. The effect of the medicine caused a qualitative change in the inner energy and made it very restless. Luo Jin needed to appease them and prevent them from letting go. They crash around. If one person does this kind of thing, there will still be a certain degree of danger, but with Gu Zheng on hand to help, this process will be more painful, but there is no need to worry about any danger.

After a while, the expression on Luo Jin's face, which was dripping with sweat, finally calmed down. During this process, white mist appeared on his head from time to time. Nowadays, the internal energy has become calm and the color has changed from white to red. It is moving around the sky along Luo Jin's eight extraordinary meridians, in order to allow the body to adapt to this qualitative change of energy as soon as possible.

After thirty-six weeks of inner energy circulation, I opened my eyes which were originally closed.

"I feel full of power!"

Luo Jin jumped up, roared and hit the void again with his palm.

"Ouch..."

The energy inside the tiger's head flew out with great force, causing the airflow to make a sound like a beast's roar.

"This is many times more powerful than before when the internal energy was not purified!"

"It is not only the power that is improved, but also the speed. This is the most valuable thing."

"Fellow Daoist Luo has already refined and transformed his inner energy at a young age. Among practitioners of the same level, there are very few who can match you."

"I have learned a lot. It turns out that in addition to the 'Energy Essence Pill', there is also a pill like the 'Purity Pill', which can also purify the inner energy."

"Master Gu, do you still have your 'Purity Pill'? I want to buy one!"

"Are there any more? I want to buy one too!"

The crowd of onlookers was a little excited. Some were lamenting that Luo Jin's inner energy had been purified, while more wanted to obtain a 'Pure Pill' from Gu Zheng.

"What's going on? Aren't you able to see things from a distance? Shouldn't things like this whose function you don't know have to be eliminated in advance?"

Gu Zheng was busy dealing with the entanglements of the onlookers. On the Kunlun princeling side, Nangong Chen asked Cui Ying in a low voice. Because of his trust in Cui Ying, he waited until now to ask this question that he should have asked long ago.

"There's something weird about Gu Zheng's box. I can't see clearly what's inside, so I just picked it at random." Cui Ying said bitterly.

"Fellow Daoist Cui, what are you talking about? About winning or losing?"

Gu Zheng had already dealt with the pesters, and he looked at Cui Ying with a smile.

"Hmph." Cui Ying snorted coldly: "Bet it's just thirty fifth-grade resources, but the resource level of elixirs that can purify internal energy has reached spiritual grade. Thirty fifth-grade resources are really compared to it. It’s nothing! Master Gu, you are really willing to take action!”

Cui Ying was right. In addition to fifth-grade resources, refining the 'Energy Essence Pill' also requires some special-grade resources. Therefore, the resource grade of the finished pill has reached the spiritual grade. But what Cui Ying didn't know was that the refining cost of Gu Zheng's 'Pure Pill' was many times lower than that of the 'Inner Energy Essence Pill'.

"There's nothing I can do, I'm afraid of losing!" Gu Zheng's voice paused, and a complicated look appeared on his face: "Actually, what I put in another box is just a fifth-grade resource. Cui Daoyou will put my fifth-grade resource I don’t know whether I should call it bad luck or luck to abandon this spiritual resource!”

Seeing the complexity and emotion on Gu Zheng's face, Cui Ying was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.

"Stop talking nonsense, I don't believe that the resource I gave up is only a fifth-grade resource. You dare to gamble with a fifth-grade resource in such a bet, unless you are stupid." Cui Ying said angrily.

"I am an honest person, why would I lie to Fellow Daoist Cui? If you don't believe me, just look at it!"

Gu Zheng seemed to have taken out a box from his backpack, but in fact, the box was taken out from the prehistoric space. The appearance of the box was the same as before, but the thing inside was just a fifth-grade herbal medicine.

"You, you are cruel!"

Cui Ying was so angry that her face turned green, and she wanted to slap herself hard. She had been playing like an eagle all her life, but in the end she was pecked out by an eagle and lost her eyes.

If Cui Ying knew that the box she abandoned actually contained a 'purity pill', I don't know how she would feel.

"Thank you Daoist Cui for making it happen. I won the bet this time, right? If I win, shouldn't the bet be handed over to me?" Gu Zheng said with a smile.

"Give!"

Cui Ying suppressed her anger and threw the resources in the bag to Gu Zheng.

"Master Gu, these are your resources." Luo Jin also handed his resources to Gu Zheng.

"Put away your dogtails."

Gu Zheng smiled and glared at Luo Jin. After this incident, he understood that Luo Jin was actually grateful to him.

"Hehe." Luo Jin smiled and took back his first-grade resources.

"In a bet, although Master Gu won, he actually lost. He only thought it was thirty fifth-grade resources in exchange for one spiritual-grade resource."

"Yes, actually we still lost money."

"How can you say it's a loss? People gain face because of it. In their eyes, face is more important than resources. This is something we can't compare with."

"There is a winner in this bet, isn't it Luo Jin from the Tianluo Sect?"

Everyone was still discussing the gambling game just now, and Gu Zheng also spoke to the Shushan princelings: "Guys, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."

In fact, Gu Zheng was really wishing that something happened to these people! If the matter becomes big enough, Kunlun will pay more attention to it, and he will be able to see Wuchenzi as soon as possible.

"Master Gu, please stay. I wonder if Master Gu is willing to make a bet with me?" Nangong Chen said.

"These people are not willing to give in! But think about it, they are always like the pride of heaven, how could they have suffered such a setback." Gu Zheng smiled in his heart.

"Fellow Taoist Nangong wants to bet with me too?" Gu Zheng turned around with a surprised expression.

"Yes, I also want to make a bet with the ancient Taoist friend!" Nangong Chen said with a smile.

"I like betting the most. You are so enthusiastic about asking me to bet. I will treat you as a special way of hospitality. Let me tell you first, what do you want to bet with me?" Gu Zheng said.

"Let's also make a bet related to resources! As cultivators, we should be familiar with resources." Nangong Chen paused, then loudly said: "The stalls in the two rows in front and behind are all stall owners who are not Kunlun disciples. Guys, if you want to participate in this gamble, put away everything on your stall and rearrange it with new resources. The higher the value of these resources, the better. After all, this is related to your income later. "

With Luo Jin's experience in front of them, Gu Zheng and the other stall owners who were not Kunlun disciples immediately collected all the resources in the stall.

"Letting them collect the resources is just to be fair. The provincial Taoist friends are suspicious, because these resources have been placed here for a long time. I have seen them before, so I am familiar with them. If the ancient Taoist friends agree to bet with me, I will let them put them out. New resources, the two of us are limited to ten minutes , choose resources from these stalls! Everyone can choose a variety of resources that they think are more expensive in the market, and then each chooses the most expensive one, and then compare the resources selected by the two to see who has the highest market price. He is the ultimate winner," Nangong Chen said.

"I believe this was a hasty gambling game. Although the rules are a bit rough, there shouldn't be anything tricky in them." Gu Zheng thought for a while.

"I promise you, fellow ancient Taoist, that I will never play any tricks in this bet. What I want to compare with you is my knowledge and understanding of the value of resources. If fellow ancient Taoist is also good at this, you can feel free to follow me. Let's take a gamble, we will win happily, and we will lose openly if we lose." Nangong Chen said solemnly.

"Okay, let's talk about the details."

Gu Zheng's expression was also very solemn, but in fact, he was sighing for Nangong Chen. If Nangong Chen really didn't have any evil intentions, how could he be better than the weapon spirit?

"The details are actually very simple. You must buy the resources you like! Since the stall owners are not Kunlun disciples, if you can't buy the resources you like, you can only say that you have no ability. It's the same for you and me. . After all, this matter has troubled everyone involved. After the gambling game is over, the loser needs to pay each stall owner one piece of fourth-grade resources as hard work. As for our bet, Cui Ying just bet you thirty pieces of fifth-grade resources. I’ll also bet you thirty fifth-grade resources!”

Although Nangong Chen and the others are princelings, they are still a little bit overwhelmed by thirty fifth-grade resources at a time. After all, resources belong to the Kunlun Sect. What they have are given by their elders or obtained from other places. It counts as 'private money'. What Nangong Chen planned was to equalize the game from Guzheng and win back the resources Cui Ying lost and return them to her.

Gu Zheng nodded and said: "Okay, then let's bet on thirty fifth-grade resources!"

Seeing that Gu Zheng agreed, Nangong Chen said to the two rows of stalls: "Everyone is ready to start!"

Following Nangong Chen's voice, the stall owners immediately got ready. After all, even if there was no transaction, there would still be a fourth-grade resource as a consolation prize, which was considered a good thing.

It is said that there are two rows of stalls, but in fact there are only six stalls that actually participate in the gambling. After all, the stalls of Shushan disciples cannot participate, and there are only a few stalls of non-Shushan disciples.

"alright."

All the resources were put on the table, and the six stall owners spoke one after another.

"Fellow Daoist Ancient Daoist, let's start now!"

"Okay." Gu Zheng nodded.

"Fellow Taoists who are watching the fun, please be a witness. Follow me and fellow Taoist Gu. If we do anything illegal, you just need to point it out, and I, Nangong Chen, will be rewarded!" Nangong Chen added.

"Okay, fellow Taoist Nangong is fair!"

"I don't think anyone will commit a foul, with so many people watching!"

The onlookers laughed.

There were exactly three stalls in a row of six, and Nangong Chen and Gu Zheng ran to one row each.

"Gu Zheng, go to the second stall, there is something good there." Qi Ling's voice sounded in Gu Zheng's mind.

"What?" Gu Zheng asked.

As non-Kunlun disciples, stall owners do not have many resources to begin with. They withdraw their original resources and replace them with new ones, so that the number of resources on each stall is much less than the original ones, even There are also two stalls with only three or four kinds of resources. The stall Qi Ling mentioned contained five kinds of resources. At first glance, Gu Zheng didn't see anything special.

"It's that blood-red crystal stone. I must buy it later." The weapon spirit said happily.

"What is this crystal? Isn't it a crystal?" Gu Zheng asked again.

"It is a kind of crystal, but it is a very rare 'dragon blood crystal'. It can be used in special situations. This kind of thing is rare in the ancient times. If you classify it according to the grade of resources here, it should belong to It's the best! But the stall owner probably doesn't know its purpose, so maybe you missed it!" Qi Ling said with a smile.

"Stall owner, how do we calculate these resources for packaging?" Gu Zheng said straight to the point.

In the rules set by Nangong Chen, there is only one resource that determines victory or defeat, but everyone can buy many. There is a reason for this rule! With Luo Jin’s experience before him, every stall owner wants to make a big fortune. This is inevitable and human nature. If the resource that determines victory or defeat is one piece, and everyone can only buy one piece, the stall owner will In all likelihood, the owner will raise the price just because the rare item is available.

The stall owner Gu Zheng asked was a thin old man with a goatee and wearing a Taoist robe. He looked at Gu Zheng with a little surprise, and then said: "Master Gu plans to package these resources?"

"That's right." Gu Zheng said.

"These five resources are all treasures in my box. They can be regarded as the only treasures in the sect. One of them is the rare 'Golden Crow Fruit' among the fifth-grade resources, and the other three are all special items. Resources, and although I don’t know what the purpose of this crystal is, I always feel that it is very extraordinary. If the ancient leader wants to exchange all these resources, I need five special resources!”

The goatee Taoist's face remained calm, but his heart was beating wildly. What does it mean to take advantage of the situation? This is called taking advantage of the situation! On the surface, there is only one fifth-grade resource, plus three special-grade resources. As for the blood-red crystal, he has asked someone to identify it, but no one knows what it is. For an object that no one knows and has no idea of ​​its use, it is useless to say that it is a star in the sky.

"Okay, five pieces, five pieces!"

Gu Zheng was not short of these resources. With a wave of his hand, he took out something equivalent to five special resources from his backpack.

"Oh, Master Gu is really straightforward. He likes to do business with such a generous sponsor like you. He doesn't lack resources!" The stall owner hurriedly packaged his resources to Gu Zheng, smiling so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. .

Although Gu Zheng missed the 'Dragon Blood Crystal', this item cannot be used to determine the outcome of the bet. After all, no one knows it. So, he hurried to the next stall.

There were no resources available for gambling at the next booth, so Gu Zheng hurriedly rushed to the row where Nangong Chen was.

There are also only three stalls in the row where Nangong Chen is located. At this time, he is at the second stall, bargaining with the stall owner.

Before Gu Zheng even approached the third stall, Qi Ling had already told him that there was nothing he could use at this stall. However, in order to complete the trick, Gu Zheng still walked to a place where he could see it, then turned around and ran towards Nangong Chen's whereabouts.

"It seems that the thing that can be used to decide the outcome this time is what Nangong Chen bargains with the stall owner now." Gu Zheng thought to himself.
