Chapter 978: Hole in Space and Time
After the previous incident of the spiritual stone mine, the business and spiritual stone circles of Yanshi City were terrified of the mention of stones.
However, on this day, some people began to plunder Yunlimei and Juhuaqing in Yanshi City. For a time, some were vigilant and some were excited.
In any case, the spiritual stone vendors in Yanshi City who had hoarded a large amount of Yunlimei and Juhuaqing were scrambling to sell their stocks.
In order to sell those stone lumps, they did not hesitate to lower their prices.
Three days later, the Yunlimei and Juhuaqing on the market in Yanshi City had been reduced by half, and the mysterious buyer seemed to have been fed.
This made many spiritual stone vendors who were still waiting and watching anxious like ants on a hot pot. They wanted to wait and see for a while out of caution.
Unexpectedly, the buyer seemed to be not very generous...
All of a sudden, many spirit stone vendors took the initiative to find the buyer, saying that they still had top-quality ore and were willing to sell it to him at a low price.
After a round of bargaining, the transaction price three days later was less than half of the price three days ago...
After another three days, when Xiao Mian returned to Dahuai Village, almost all the Yunlimei and Juhuaqing on the market in Yanshi City fell into Xiao Mian's pocket.
Fortunately, the spirit stone vendors in Yanshi City were buying and giving away.
In order to load the astonishing amount of city-building ore, each vendor used the top-quality storage bags with the largest storage space. After the transaction was completed, those storage bags naturally became Xiao Mian's things - at this juncture, who dared to bargain with Xiao Mian?
Almost half-sold and half-given, Xiao Mian swept away all the Yunlimei and Juhuaqing in Yanshi City!
If the mysterious man back then earned a huge amount of spiritual stones by making a fortune out of nothing, then Xiao Mian today is taking advantage of the situation and saving a huge amount of spiritual stones.
The reason why Xiao Mian spent a lot of spiritual stones to purchase those Yunlimei and Juhuaqing was naturally not because of Liu Zhigang's words and wanted to help the miners, but because he had a premonition that in the near future when the spiritual war was about to come, the city-building ore would definitely sell well.
Although it seems that the world is peaceful now, the spiritual war is imminent, and many forces will definitely not relax for strategic resources such as Yunlimei and Juhuaqing.
But Xiao Mian knew very well that his Nanyuezhou did not have such strategic resources!
Instead of digging a well when thirsty, it is better to prepare for a rainy day!
Xiao Mian even had a bold guess: I am afraid that the mysterious purchaser a few years ago only completed half of the plan, and what Xiao Mian did was the other half of the plan.
First, he made a fortune by making a fortune out of nothing, causing the price of ore in Yanshi City to soar and plummet, and the market to fall to the bottom, earning a large amount of spirit stones and running away. When things gradually calmed down, he used the spirit stones earned to sweep the ore at a very low price. This is the whole picture of the plan!
If this is true, then the mysterious man is worthy of Xiao Mian's admiration...
It's a pity that Xiao Mian's behavior now is tantamount to stealing someone's love!
It's okay to take it away. Anyway, Xiao Mian has the Wanhua Spiritual Appearance and the help of Guitou in secret, so he is not afraid of exposing his identity!
However, this large-scale plundering also reduced Xiao Mian's spirit stone reserves. It seems that even if there are more spirit stones, it is not enough...
After returning to Dahuai Village, Xiao Mian stood under the big locust tree and looked at the thatched cottage.
The thatched cottage is still the same, Tuoba Lan is still the same, and even the big locust tree behind Xiao Mian is still the same...
For no reason, Xiao Mian felt a sense of powerlessness.
Even if he is now a Jindan strongman, and even among the Jindan cultivators, he is already the peak combat power, but what does it matter?
Even if he successfully condenses his infant in the future, enters the ranks of the old ancestor cultivators, and is successful and famous, but what does it matter?
Even if he has power over the world, he can't bring back his parents who have both passed away.
Even if he reaches the pinnacle, he can't find the way to immortality.
Life is so helpless, if you gain something, you will lose something...
Shaking his head, Xiao Mian reached out and touched the big locust tree with some emotion, intending to feel the voice of this big locust tree that has seen all the wind and rain.
Reaching out and touching the rough bark of the big locust tree, Xiao Mian felt a wave of heartbeat in a trance, which was transmitted from the big locust tree to himself.
Thinking back to the past, the nine-bend peach tree was also so magical.
It seems that this unremarkable big locust tree is also a different species among trees!
Xiao Mian just thought about it, and suddenly his expression moved.
Then, a dark cloud suddenly swirled over the big locust tree without any warning. The dark cloud grew bigger and bigger, and soon covered the big locust village.
Looking at the posture of the dark cloud, it was clear that it was going to cover the entire Yunlong Mountain.
This time, even the daring Xiao Mian was frightened.
Could it be that he had activated some mechanism that he shouldn't have activated?
Or was someone going to pass the tribulation?
What... what was this for! ?
Soon, Liu Zhigang came over with big strides.
Seeing Xiao Mian standing blankly under the big locust tree, Liu Zhigang hurriedly pulled Xiao Mian back to his residence and explained to him at the same time.
"This is a change in the world!"
"..., just a change in the world?"
"Senior Xiao! The reason why our Dahuai Village is called Dahuai Village is because of this big locust tree. It is said that this big locust tree existed before Dahuai Village, and even Yunlong Mountain is just a mound at the foot of the big locust tree! This big locust tree has existed for thousands or tens of thousands of years, and it has become spiritual and can sense the heaven and earth!"
"So what does the so-called change in the world mean?"
"Just watch! Who knows what will come out this time!"
"..."
Although Xiao Mian was suspicious, he put his mind at ease when he saw that Liu Zhigang was looking forward to it but not worried. He turned to stare at the big locust tree.
At this time, all the villagers in the whole village of Dahuai had closed their doors.
There were very few people who dared to look directly at the big locust tree like Liu Zhigang, and there was no one who watched the excitement like Xiao Mian.
Soon, the dark clouds above the big locust tree were so thick that they were almost dripping with water. The dark clouds rotated, and there were faint lightning and thunder.
Looking around, it looked like the scene of some cultivators going through tribulation.
Suddenly, a hole suddenly appeared in the dark cloud above the big locust tree.
In the empty hole, there was calm and peaceful, just like the lightning and thunder outside, and this hole close at hand, were completely two worlds.
Before Xiao Mian could see clearly, the ghost head had already cried out softly.
"A hole in time and space!"
"A hole in time and space? What is that?"
"A primitive form of a space-time tunnel! Very...very dangerous!" Even the daring Guitou was a little at a loss at this time, which made Xiao Mian feel awe for the hole. Then he heard Guitou continue to say: "But it's very strange! Such holes in time and space mostly appear in extremely unstable areas of time and space. Such a stable space that is as dull as a pool of stagnant water rarely appears. Unless..."
"Unless what?"
Just as Xiao Mian asked this, a black shadow suddenly fell out of the hole.
Then, the lightning disappeared, the thunder extinguished, the clouds dispersed, and the rain stopped.
In just a breath, the sky above the entire Dahuai Village returned to a clear sky, as if everything before was just a temporary illusion.
Xiao Mian naturally didn't think so, not to mention that a black shadow clearly fell out of the hole in time and space - it was clearly a human figure!
After confirming that the time-space hole had been completely closed, Xiao Mian and Liu Zhigang rushed to the big locust tree. Sure enough, there was a man lying under the tree.
The man was lying on the ground, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
The two looked at each other, and Liu Zhigang was bold enough to go up and turn the man over, but when he saw the man's face clearly, he took a breath of cold air.
It was not that the man looked so scary or terrifying, on the contrary, the man was so beautiful that he was stunningly beautiful, but - that was clearly a man!
A beautiful man!
Even Xiao Mian, who had such a temperament, couldn't help but be moved when he saw the man's appearance: This man, he is too beautiful!
Not handsome, not handsome, but pure beauty!
So beautiful that it makes people suffocate, so beautiful that people forget that he is a man...
If you have to use a word to describe it, it would be - a monster!
Just as Xiao Mian was thinking this, he suddenly saw Liu Zhigang, who was holding the evil man, with his eyes wide open and his hands trembling, as if he was possessed by an evil spirit.
The light in his eyes became colder, and Xiao Mian snorted coldly.
Liu Zhigang was alert and let go of the man, throwing him to the ground.
Just as Liu Zhigang took three steps back as if avoiding a snake or scorpion, the unconscious and beautiful man was shocked and woke up leisurely...
A pair of scissor eyes, with a hint of autumn.
Xiao Mian and the man looked at each other, and a murderous intent rose in his heart for no reason.
The man had just passed through the hole in time and space, and was obviously quite frightened. When he saw Xiao Mian looking at him coldly, he was startled again and subconsciously lowered his head.
At that moment, Xiao Mian's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
But just when Xiao Mian wanted to kill the evil man unreasonably, Tuoba Lan in white came under the big locust tree.
Tuoba Lan and Liu Zhigang bowed their hands in greeting, and then looked at Xiao Mian, and then carefully observed the man who was sitting on the ground.
"Excuse me, friend! Did you fall from the sky above the big locust tree?"
"..., yes!" The man was not only beautiful, but also had a soft and sweet voice, which made people feel relaxed and happy. Liu Zhigang was confused, and even Xiao Mian felt his mind was shaken, but he heard Tuoba Lan continue to ask: "Where are you from, friend? Why are you here? Friend! Do you still remember the past?"
"..., where are you from? I don't remember!"
As he said this, the man struggled to stand up.
After looking at Tuoba Lan deeply, the man took out a pill and swallowed it, and then he couldn't wait to control the sword light and rushed towards the eastern sky...
Tuoba Lan looked at the sword light and felt lost.
Liu Zhigang looked at the sword light and felt relieved.
Only Xiao Mian, looking at the familiar sword light, changed his expression slightly!
Can't it be such a coincidence?
Can't it be so ghostly?
Can't it be so unbelievable?
Can't this world be so crazy! ?
