I Became an Old Man in My Leisure Time

Chapter 211 Millionaire, Spirit Spring Level 5 Life Essence

It was not until Xiaoman and Xiaoping'er picked out dozens of obviously large purple bamboo tubes to offer as treasures that he returned to normal and said to the three women with a smile: "Look, this is the biggest trophy of the young lady's journey north."

He opened the slightly smaller purple bamboo tubes, and dozens of blood ghost crystals fell out and were suspended in the air.

Xiaoman also carefully identified: "Most of these blood ghosts are not very strong, but seven or eight of them are almost as strong as the strongest blood ghosts we have encountered. The young lady killed so many in one breath, which is really amazing."

Gu Ke nodded in agreement.

At present, the white ghost has indeed "depreciated" to become a common commodity, but the black ghost is still a "fine product", and the blood ghost is even a rare "limited edition".

When the ghosts encountered at the stall attack the city, most of the time there are only one or two blood ghosts leading the way. If there are more, they will probably not be able to defend and will be directly destroyed.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that most of the blood ghosts in the Far North Outer Region were either stationed in the black hole of the Eternal Ice Peak or attacking the North Desert Defense Line.

The eldest lady exerted too much strength at the Eternal Ice Peak, and the blood ghosts there were directly annihilated, and at least 20 to 30 blood ghost crystals were "buried with her".

After absorbing the blood ghost crystals, there is a very small chance of obtaining super martial arts when signing in, and the chance of 20 to 30 at the same time is not small.

So sometimes people are a little ignorant, which is not a kind of happiness.

Now Gu Ke has escaped the fate of heartache and is full of happiness.

He held the last and largest purple bamboo tube in his hand and poured out the ghost crystals.

A ghost crystal the size of an adult's fist, transparent and misty, was suspended in the air. It was the virtual ghost crystal.

Compared with this, any blood ghost crystal is scum.

Xiaoman took it directly and exclaimed immediately: "Good guy! It's almost dead, but there is still such a strong mental interference."

But she is also a martial arts master. Although the virtual ghost is half a level higher than the martial arts master in terms of strength, the remaining ghost crystal can't do anything to her.

Xiao Ping'er and Saranzhu came forward to admire the first virtual strange crystal that the cave mansion got.

Gu Ke simply gave it to them to play with, and he used his divine consciousness to open the purple bamboo tube and quickly absorbed a large number of strange crystals.

The divine consciousness was divided into hundreds of strands, "opening boxes" in batches.

The thousandth digit of the soul source on the system panel jumped almost once or twice, and the ten thousandth digit jumped once.

After dozens of times, together with the more than 50,000 soul sources that were originally left, the value suddenly became a seven-digit number.

However, the first two or three digits were all 1, which undoubtedly lacked the beauty of curve changes.

Even so, facing the historic breakthrough of seven digits, Gu Ke still recalled the pitiful 12 units of soul source when he got the first strange crystal, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart: Finally, I finally became a "millionaire".

After a while, Saranzhu couldn't hold back and pinched Xiaoman's fat butt hard with her hand: "How long do you want to see?"

Xiaoman cried out in pain, threw the virtual ghost crystal to Gu Ke, turned around and pounced on her and pinched her hard: "I've seen enough, but I definitely haven't dealt with you enough."

Salanzhu rolled her eyes.

In the past, she was happy to make trouble with Xiaoman, but as a palace spirit, the seven-digit soul source in the system is now the "delicacy" she wants most.

Her body, the Jade Dragon Cave Mansion, has long been eager for this huge fortune, so she has no time to make trouble with Xiaoman.

So Saranzhu was defeated in a rare battle, surrendered and admitted defeat, and then looked at the virtual ghost crystal with regret: "It's a pity that the eldest lady couldn't get the body of the virtual ghost back, which should be able to make a more advanced exclusive fertilizer and upgrade the Red Spirit Fairy Field to a higher level."

Gu Ke just smiled and shook his head: "She was alone, raiding the ghost's nest, fighting against the majority with a small number of people, without any backup, and holding back is a taboo. We will encounter the virtual ghost sooner or later, and there will be more advanced fertilizers."

Pick up the virtual ghost crystal and absorb it casually. There are more than 6,000 units of soul source. I can't help but laugh: "This guy's strength is not bad among the virtual ghosts, and the soul source is close to 20 of the weakest blood ghosts."

Saranzhu, who has always been talkative, didn't say anything, and looked at him eagerly.

Gu Ke smiled: "Okay, okay, you upgrade."

Whether he upgrades it himself or gives it to Saranzhu, the actual result is the same.

But things like "spending money", especially "spending millions" in one breath, have a different feeling.

For Saranzhu, it is similar to the feeling of playing games and opening experience balls in succession, and rushing to level up.

Fortunately, the core of Yulong Cave Mansion, the small hut, was the first to be upgraded to level 15 in the past two years.

Only when this core building reaches level 15 first, can the other system buildings break through level 15.

In addition, the bedroom was also upgraded to level 15 at the first time, and the characteristic of soul-soothing and mind-calming was changed from +2 to +3, providing a better environment for the sleeping beauty Bai Jie to enter into meditation.

At this moment, a certain mansion spirit with "millions of dollars" in hand had bright eyes and began to spend money crazily according to the established plan.

First of all, the pergola, Bai Suqing, who does not eat or drink, needs its characteristic of eating wind and drinking dew, which is second only to the soul-soothing and mind-calming of the bedroom.

Others can also enjoy the treatment of "spiritual energy entering the body" and "hanging up to increase attributes" at all times.

The original price of upgrading from level 10 to level 15 in one go was more than 600,000 soul sources, but with a 30% discount, it only cost 190,000 with a fraction of the original price.

The price of going higher is too high. Even if you invest millions of souls, you still can't reach level 20. It's more cost-effective to upgrade other buildings to level 15 first.

The second system building to upgrade is the warehouse.

In the future, the raw materials required for the cave upgrade alone will be huge. When setting up a stall, the entry and exit of large quantities of goods will also be completed by the warehouse by default.

If it exceeds the limit, it will have to be thrown outside the warehouse, and a lot of time will be wasted to sort and integrate it to prevent certain goods from being damaged by wind and sun.

This is another expenditure of more than 190,000 yuan.

Next, the study room will be upgraded to level 15, and the characteristic aura will be +3.

Martial arts training and learning are more efficient and the process is easier. It is an indispensable good tool for the cheating Gu Ke, or the top student (Xiao Ping'er) and the bad student (Xiao Man).

Then there is the bathroom room level 15, which has the characteristic of easy tendons and marrow cleansing +3.

Showering once a day is similar to the full state that is refreshed every day in the game. It can ensure that the body is pure and undamaged and maintained at its peak level. Even Bai Suqing can enjoy it.

Anyway, she has been in deep trance for a long time, and the food, water, dew and spiritual spring provide her body needs, and she basically does not eat.

Over the past few years, Sister Bai's body has become clearer and clearer, with very few impurities.

The Yijin Marrow Cleansing by Foodie is for cleaning the stomach and intestines, while the Bai Suqing for empty stomach is just a daily skin cleansing and care for the whole body.

The two children took her in, cleaned her up, and came out in less than a cup of tea, so there was no trouble.

This is another 190,000 × 2 soul sources gone.

There were still about 300,000 soul sources left, but Saranzhu did not use them immediately.

This amount of soul source is only enough to upgrade one more system building, and each of them has a considerable effect.

Activate more fairy fields to plant special crops earlier. Stock up on more vintage, top quality materials.

It goes without saying how important the kitchen is to the foodies in the valley.

Lingquan is a good thing that can moisturize things silently and subtly improve basic physical fitness.

On the other hand, although the workshops, processing workshops, and livestock farms are important, they are too expensive to be upgraded to level 5.

After discussing for a while, Xiaoman spoke with difficulty and took the initiative to exclude the "kitchen" option: "Upgrading the kitchen can only allow us to eat more. The water essence of Lingquan is more beneficial to Sister Bai and us. Even if we cannot discount it, we should first Lift it.”

The biggest foodie in the house "abandoned" the kitchen, and no one had any objections.

For everyone, they have always been worried about improving their strength too quickly. The subtle effect of Lingquan on improving basic physical fitness is more important.

Besides, the urgency of upgrading other buildings is not strong, so it is natural to choose Lingquan, which has the most extensive advantages.

As soon as Saranzhu had an idea, he upgraded the level 4 spiritual spring to level 5, which cost 320,000 soul sources. It could not be discounted at all, and the inventory of soul sources was basically exhausted.

The characteristic of Lingquan is Water Spirit Essence +10, which is promoted to Life Essence +1.

It originally has a stronger effect on biological nourishment, and also has the magical effect of slowly healing internal and external injuries.

We can't say that the flesh and bones of the living dead can be saved, but it can still be done to save someone's life at critical moments and continue to heal injuries.

Take Bai Suqing's injury when he first arrived at Yulong Valley as an example - the second-round master's blood orifice was broken, his chakras were destroyed, and only his physical fitness and a small amount of residual blood were left.

If you only use the life essence characteristic +1 to treat it, you will be able to recover as before in three to five years, without leaving any injuries or hidden dangers in your body.

In addition, the level 5 spiritual spring also has certain "automatic" functions as expected.

When Gu Ke or Fuling Salanzhu is set in advance, it can automatically complete the circulation process of water flow, air moisture, and trace soul sources in the cave.

In this way, the ordinary land in the cave can be improved in targeted areas.

Not all crops require the same amount of water. Differences in fog and sunshine in crops such as tea trees will affect the final yield, quality, and taste.

This is undoubtedly a long and tedious project with no end in sight, so don’t worry, just make some experimental changes.

Everyone's attention at this moment is still on the beautiful scenery in the valley after the upgrade of Lingquan.

Above and below Jade Dragon Peak, the size of the two water spirit balls, one large and one small, has not changed, but the water storage capacity and soul source content contained in them can reach 32 times that of level 0. This storage capacity is at a medium level among medium-sized reservoirs.

The water ball that has always been crystal clear and colorless has a layer of light green, like two green gems, which are pregnant with vigorous vitality.

In the trickling rivers, ponds and lakes in the cave, as well as the moisture in the air, bits and pieces of soul sources shimmered faintly, pouring into the water spirit ball together with the moisture.

After being cultivated in the water spirit ball, more soul sources escaped, and their quality and quantity were several times that before entering.

As night falls in the Yulong Cave Mansion in summer, thousands of fluorescent lights are looming, flowing slowly and slowly, with the water spirit ball as the core.

This situation is even more magnificent and fantastic than the sky full of fireflies in the animated CG that Gu Ke had seen in his previous life.

Gu Ke looked at it for a moment, then suddenly said: "This seems a bit dazzling. If you look at it for a long time, it is almost like light pollution."

Such "modern" words were naturally addressed to Salanzhu.

Xiao Man had a different opinion, hugging him and acting coquettishly: "Lao Gu, I think this is really beautiful."

Xiao Ping'er didn't say anything, but she quietly reached out her hand, grabbed his other sleeve and shook it, obviously agreeing with Xiao Man.

Gu Ke pondered for a moment and felt that he had to rely on a certain mansion spirit to solve this problem: "I'll ask Salanzhu to change it for a while and then make a decision if you are satisfied. How about that?"

The two boys nodded in succession.

Gu Ke heard a story in his last life. The general idea was that a buyer from an African country pointed at a tank and said "I want this." But it turned out that they couldn't afford it, and even if they could afford it, they couldn't use it.

Rabbit's salesperson patiently and carefully asked the customer's needs, slapped his thigh, and pulled out the self-propelled artillery: "Look, you need strong fire, strong maneuverability, resistance to rifle bullets, and the price is cheaper than a tank."

The other party was overjoyed: "Yes, this is what we want."

This little story shows that many times what the parties put forward by themselves is not actually their real needs.

In the same way, Xiaoman and others say that this "light pollution" is beautiful, largely because it is "better than when there is no light."

Gu Ke communicated with Salanzhu with his spiritual thoughts, and asked the mansion spirit to simultaneously fine-tune the circulation path of the trace soul source in the cave.

After a while, the two children opened their mouths in confusion, staring at the scenery in front of them in a daze.

The changes Gu Ke made were very simple. Most of the soul sources only appeared in places with the most abundant water, and the light effects in other places gradually disappeared.

The large water ball on the top of the peak became the brightest light source, like thousands of fireflies piecing together a huge pale blue moon.

The water flows out from this bright moon, carrying countless bright brilliance and scattering into various waterfalls. Jade Dragon Peak seems to be surrounded by a lively and dancing galaxy.

At the bottom of the peak, the big lake where the three girls usually played was sparkling. Layers of mist-like light spots rise and disappear.

The two hot and cold rivers meandering at the bottom of the valley flow on one side, emitting fluorescent light on the other, and then flow into the larger lake in the livestock farm.

Different from the lake tour, the large lake in the livestock farm is full of aquatic plants. The endless lotus flowers sway their branches and leaves happily under the fluorescent light, blooming with fresh pink buds.

In the specially transplanted pampas grass marsh, the downy pampas grass appears translucent under the fluorescent light, and the snow-white color has a slight jade-like light.

The lake breeze blows slowly in summer, just like the white jade whisk waving in the wind, rising and falling one wave after another.

Correspondingly, most areas in the valley are dark, which better sets off the brilliance of fluorescent lights in rivers and lakes.

Compared with the situation where the eyes are full of fluorescent lights, this can undoubtedly highlight the key points without causing visual fatigue quickly.

After staring blankly for a while, Xiao Man came back to his senses, pulled Gu Ke and urged: "Lao Gu, let's go swimming tonight."

Gu Ke looked at Xiao Ping'er and Sa Lanzhu, and the two women nodded immediately.

Playing in the water during the day is nothing compared to swimming in the Milky Way.

The three women had no objection, and he didn't care where they were.

But I still went up to the peak, lifted out a certain sleeping beauty, and put her in the hot spring pool.

Sister Bai cannot travel to the Milky Way tonight, but she can be the first to enjoy the nourishment of the level 5 spiritual spring.

Fluorescent light floated up together with water waves and mist, covering the sleeping beauty, giving her a dense and misty halo, like a peerless fairy trapped in a dream.

He caressed her cheek gently. The hot spring water mist made the jade skin a little smoother. He couldn't help but said: "Sister Bai, if you continue to sleep like this, I will eat all the tofu."
