Chapter 413 Cut with a Knife

The man was chatting about the gossip of Nanyue City while introducing the cave to Mo Hua.

Mo Hua was looking at the exterior layout of the cave while remembering what Mr. Zhuang said.

"Look at the spiritual energy, look at the direction, look at the formation, look at the five elements..."

The Dao Court was unified, the cultivation world has developed for more than 20,000 years, and there are hundreds of millions of cultivators, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has gradually faded.

Nowadays, the natural spiritual energy between heaven and earth is no longer enough to support the cultivation of cultivators.

But there is still spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

It's just that these spiritual energies are either thin, mixed, or filthy, and cannot be absorbed and refined by cultivators.

Mo Hua thought silently in his heart:

"Master asked me to look at the spiritual energy, what is it?"

"What's so good about the spiritual energy?"

Mo Hua released his consciousness and observed the spiritual energy lingering in the cave. After watching for a while, he gradually understood something in his heart.

What Mr. Zhuang asked him to look at was not the spiritual energy itself, but the flow of spiritual energy.

When the spiritual energy flows, the qi flow is smooth and the cave is suitable for living.

The wind is not always there, but the flow of spiritual energy is always there.

It's just that this flow is very subtle, and it requires patience to perceive and carefully distinguish.

The direction is also easy to understand.

East, south, west, north, up and down.

The location of the cave, the pattern of the entire fairy city, and the direction are also very particular.

Not to mention the formation.

Mo Hua is a first-grade formation master, and he is also a first-grade main formation master. He has built the five-element first-grade demon-killing formation, the twelve patterns of spiritual consciousness, and has learned the ultimate formation that exceeds the first grade.

For Mo Hua now, things involving formations are actually the simplest.

Especially the formations of the first-grade Qi Refining period.

This Nanyue City is only a second-grade fairy city.

The highest level of cultivation is only the foundation building, and the formation master is at most the first grade.

The formations used in this cave are also mainly first-grade, and there are even few first-grade nine-pattern formations. Most of them are simple formations with six or seven patterns.

Mo Hua could see through these formations at a glance without even calculating.

For Mo Hua now, the formations with six or seven patterns are no different from the basic formations.

Finally, there are the five elements...

Mo Hua still remembers the principle of the five elements' generation and restraint when he constructed the formation diagram for the weapon refiner.

In the Taoist buildings, the principles of the five elements' generation and restraint are involved in different rooms and formations.

How to use gold to generate water and store water sources; use water to generate wood and nourish flowers and plants; use soil to generate gold and strengthen houses...

Mo Hua looked at it, calculated it, and muttered it with confidence.

Ya Ren couldn't help but look at Mo Hua in surprise.

This little cultivator doesn't look like an amateur.

And he is very familiar with the formations in the cave...

It seems that he has some foundation in formations.

Could it be that he is the apprentice of a great formation master and wants to choose a cave for his master?

Ya Ren was refreshed, and the smile on his face became more sincere.

Array Master...

Even if you can't please him, you must not offend him.

...

The agent was very enthusiastic and took Mo Hua and the other two to look at all the caves in the arsenal.

Mo Hua looked around and carefully considered them. He initially decided on three caves and asked Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi:

"How are they?"

Bai Zixi didn't say anything.

Bai Zisheng was not very satisfied.

"Not big enough, not grand enough, not enough rooms, and the facilities for alchemy and refining are also very simple."

Mo Hua glanced at him and said, "Why don't you choose?"

Bai Zisheng thought about it and backed out:

"Forget it, Master asked you to choose, so you should do it."

He had a headache just listening to the spiritual energy, structure, array, five elements and the like.

If Mo Hua made the wrong choice, Master would not punish him.

If I choose the wrong one, it's hard to say. I might be punished to copy books or draw formations hundreds of times...

Bai Zisheng looked at Mo Hua again and muttered in his heart:

"Mo Hua is not a descendant of Master by blood, otherwise why does Master treat him so well?"

Bai Zisheng speculated, and then denied it in his heart:

"Impossible, Mr. Zhuang's descendant, the spiritual roots can't be as bad as Mo Hua!"

Mo Hua frowned, "Are you saying bad things about me again?"

"I didn't say anything!"

"You said it in your heart."

Bai Zisheng opened his mouth, "Mo Hua, have you become a spirit? You can know what others are thinking?"

Mo Hua snorted lightly and didn't say anything.

Since his spiritual consciousness became stronger and he learned the calculation of the derivative, he could feel some things in his heart.

Of course, he knew what Bai Zisheng was thinking, mainly because he was too familiar with him.

Bai Zisheng was wary of outsiders, but his worries were written on his face when he was familiar with them, especially the junior brother who he spent every day with.

Bai Zisheng asked the main question: "Which cave do you want to choose?"

Mo Hua said: "I have selected according to the standards of spiritual energy, structure, formation, and five elements that Master said. These three are almost the same. You can choose the one you like."

Bai Zisheng scratched his head.

He felt that none of them were good, but if he really wanted to choose, they were all almost the same.

Mo Hua glanced at Bai Zixi, "Junior Sister, which one do you like?"

Bai Zisheng also looked at his sister.

Bai Zixi thought for a while, and lightly pointed to a cave picture with her slender white fingers:

"This one."

Mo Hua took a look. There was nothing special about this cave, but there was a pond in the yard, a lawn beside the pond, and a big tree on the lawn.

Although the layout is still different, it is somewhat similar to the mountain residence on the south mountain of Tongxian City where they studied with Mr. Zhuang.

Especially the big tree in the courtyard.

Mo Hua nodded and said, "Then this one."

Mo Hua showed the drawings of the cave to Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang only glanced at it and nodded, "Not bad."

Mo Hua was happy, it seems that what he had considered before was right.

Since Mr. Zhuang agreed, the next step is to find a broker to rent the cave.

The broker was very surprised to hear this.

He didn't expect that Mo Hua and the other two actually wanted to rent it.

"Do you really want to rent it?" The broker confirmed again.

Mo Hua nodded, and before he could speak, Bai Zixi on the side said in a clear voice:

"No rent."

Not only the broker was stunned, but Mo Hua was also stunned.

Bai Zixi said calmly:

"Let's buy it."

Mo Hua whispered: "Sister, if you buy it, you need a lot of spiritual stones..."

Bai Zixi shook her head, "Not much."

She gently patted the storage bag with golden silk and phoenix pattern on her waist, and whispered to Mo Hua:

"Before leaving, Aunt Xue gave me all the spiritual stones..."

After saying that, she was afraid that Mo Hua would worry, so she added:

"A lot, a lot..."

Mo Hua was a little shocked.

His little sister turned out to be a little rich woman...

Then he was a little confused, "Can this small storage bag hold it?"

Bai Zixi nodded, "Yes."

Mo Hua understood.

This storage bag should be an extraordinary spiritual tool.

The storage bags used by casual cultivators generally have limited space and cannot hold too many things.

If you want to move large items, you have to use a storage box.

But Mo Hua knew that some storage spiritual tools have a lot of space inside, and of course they are also very expensive, at least Mo Hua himself can't afford it.

Mo Hua looked at the storage bag with the golden phoenix pattern again, and was curious, wanting to know how much stuff could be put in it.

But he was too embarrassed to look through his junior sister's storage bag.

The broker on the other side was overjoyed when he heard this.

Originally it was rented, but unexpectedly it became a purchase.

The big deal turned into an even bigger deal.

The broker immediately smiled and said, "The original price of this cave is 40,000 spirit stones. If you want to buy it, we can give you a discount price of 38,000 spirit stones!"

Just as Bai Zixi was about to nod, Mo Hua said angrily:

"Wait a minute!"

38,000 spirit stones? !

Are you kidding me?

Generally, casual cultivators spend 10,000 spirit stones to build their foundation.

These 10,000 spirit stones would take casual cultivators more than 30 years to save without eating or drinking.

Besides, how could casual cultivators not eat or drink?

How could everything go smoothly?

If they encounter an unexpected event and need spiritual stones urgently, they will most likely spend more than they earn. They can't even save up 10,000 spiritual stones, let alone 100.

This cave house needs 35,000 spiritual stones?

Save for a hundred years without eating or drinking?

Why is a cave house so expensive?

Mo Hua frowned, a little angry.

The broker said helplessly: "The market is like this, we can't do anything about it..."

Then he said something about Dao Tingsi, family, land, etc., meaning that cave houses are indeed expensive, no wonder they are.

"The market has been like this in recent years..."

Seeing that they really have difficulties, Mo Hua said:

"Then you can be cheaper."

Although he doesn't have to pay for the spiritual stones, the spiritual stones of the little sister are also spiritual stones.

More than 30,000 spiritual stones, he also feels sorry for the little sister.

"It's not a good deal..." The broker looked embarrassed, "Little brother, you have a good eye. Although the cave you chose doesn't look impressive, it is a good choice with good weather and good water..."

Mo Hua narrowed his eyes slightly, "The formation of your cave is not good."

The broker was slightly startled and a little unhappy:

"How can the formation here be bad? Let's not talk about anything else, just look at this formation, which combines the five elements, and has both offensive and defensive capabilities. It can not only prevent thieves and enemies, but also ventilate and nourish qi. And the grade of this formation is all real first-class formations, drawn by the master of formations, and it is almost brand new..."

The broker was eloquent and boasted a lot.

Mo Hua pointed to a spot on the ground and said, "The formation here is broken."

The Ya Ren was stunned, "Broken... Broken?"

Mo Hua nodded, "The earth and stone formation, the formation medium at the second formation pattern is broken..."

Mo Hua walked forward a few steps, raised his head, and said again:

"The formation here is drawn wrong."

"The fourth formation pattern of the bright lamp formation, the fifth stroke is wrong..."

The Ya Ren opened his mouth wide.

Mo Hua turned his head again and looked at the yard, "There were originally four formations here, but they are invalid, and no one has repaired them. Maybe even you don't know..."

"Also, the formation here is wrong..."

"The formation here is correct, but it uses inferior spiritual ink, and it will be invalid after two months."

"Also here, the formation conflicts..."

"What is drawn here..."

"Here..."

...

The Ya Ren was completely dumbfounded.

Who is this little monk?

I haven't shown the formation diagram of this cave to this young monk...

The formation is confidential, and the formation diagram is sealed. It cannot be taken out before the transaction is completed.

But how come this young monk, after just a few glances, can tell all the problems of the formation of this cave clearly as if he knows them all?

Is the cave beautiful, comfortable to live in, and has a good layout?

These are subjective issues.

Each person has his own opinion, which cannot be considered accurate.

But the problem with the formation is real and cannot be deceived...

And it was seen through so clearly by others...

The yamen was in a state of despair, sweating profusely.

Mo Hua had almost finished listing the problems, and with a flash of his eyes, he took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and chopped him hard:

"Twenty thousand spirit stones!"

The lion opened his mouth and almost chopped him in half with one knife.

The yamen trembled and almost lost his balance...
