After a few minutes, Ziyue smoothly returned to his room.
After confirming that no one was paying attention to him, he carefully closed the door and placed the cloth bag he obtained from Old Sixth Liu on the table.
After staring at the cloth bag for a while, his originally tense emotions gradually relaxed. Then, he quickly became excited.
Without hesitation, he hurriedly opened the cloth bag.
The moment the cloth bag was opened, even though he was already mentally prepared, his pupils still shrank and his face revealed an excited expression.
The first thing that caught his eye were the scattered pieces of silver. Each piece was the size of a child's fist and was worth ten taels each. The degree of curvature and the engraving on the silver belonged to the Jingxi Chamber of Commerce. Anyone who saw this would instantly become short of breath.
"Thirteen pieces?"
Ziyue swallowed his saliva and took out all the silver pieces. He arranged them on the table, and there were exactly thirteen pieces.
Then, Ziyue naturally could not wait to take out two books from the bag.
"《Five Sections of Golden Body》, 《Eagle Claw》."
Looking at the names of the books, Ziyue once again revealed an expression of ecstasy.
"Even though I took a huge risk this time, just obtaining 《Five Sections of Golden Body》 is worth it.
Not to mention, there is even an additional book — 《Eagle Claw》. "
Ziyue had seen Old Sixth Liu use the Eagle Claw technique before. It was fierce and fierce, and when the claw reached out, it could even crush a stone. It was definitely a powerful martial art.
After taking out the silver and the book, there were only two things left in the cloth bag.
One was a long wooden box, and the other was a small porcelain bottle.
Ziyue picked up the wooden box. When he was in the battlefield, he had actually hurriedly opened it. At this time, when he opened the wooden box again, ten pieces of golden leaves and four or five crystal clear jade pendants immediately appeared in front of him.
"It is indeed a huge fortune.
Just the thirteen pieces of silver alone are worth a total of one hundred and thirty taels.
And here, there are eleven pieces of golden leaves. According to the calculation of one tael of gold equal to ten taels of silver, one piece of golden leaf is about one tael and a half, which is one hundred and sixty-five taels of silver.
In addition, there are five valuable jade pendants … "
Ziyue did a little calculation, took a deep breath, and said, "The total is worth at least five hundred taels of silver."
Five hundred taels of silver was definitely an unimaginable fortune for Ziyue.
A few months ago, Ziyue only had three taels of silver on him, and it was his mother's hard work for two months.
"An ordinary water bandit definitely can't have so much money.
Obviously, this was stolen from the Water Immortal when he betrayed us. "
Bai Ziyue quickly came up with a guess.
If it weren't for the huge loss, the Water Immortal wouldn't have spent so much effort to track down Sixth Liu and set up an ambush to kill him.
Finally, Ziyue picked picked up the porcelain bottle
Soon, he saw a golden sticker on the outside of the porcelain bottle. A few words were clearly written on it.
"Qi and blood pill!"
Bai Ziyue was shocked. "Medicinal pills!"
He knew that in the Scorching Sun Gang branch, inner sect apprentices had the opportunity to receive a Qi and blood pill every month. It was said that it could strengthen one's qi and blood and enhance one's potential.
But it was obvious that Qi and blood pills were far inferior to Qi and blood pills.
But now, a bottle of Qi and blood pills appeared in his hand.
This was obviously for Sixth Liu's cultivation.
Even though he didn't know the value of this Qi and blood pill, he knew that in the Scorching Sun Gang branch, there were inner sect apprentices who were willing to spend one tael of silver to exchange for Qi and blood pills with others for cultivation.
Judging from this, the value of this Qi and blood pill was naturally far more than one tael of silver.
Opening the porcelain bottle, Ziyue poured it out.
Two thumb-sized Qi and blood pills, pink in color, lay quietly in his hand.
"Obviously, there should have been three pills in this porcelain bottle, but Sixth Liu used one of them, leaving only two."
Bai Ziyue carefully placed the two Qi and Blood Pills back into the porcelain bottle. Then, he wrapped up all his gains and carefully hid them.
He needed to carefully consider how to use these gains to increase his strength.
"I definitely have to practice the Fifth Stage Golden Body. My strength has already reached a bottleneck. If I only practice martial techniques, although my strength will increase, it won't increase by much. Only by practicing the Fifth Stage Golden Body and stepping into the outer forging realm will my strength, stamina, speed … and most importantly, my strength increase.
This way, I'll have more confidence to face that evil ghost cultivator whose background I don't know. "
Ziyue thought silently.
Without resolving this problem, he didn't even dare to head to the Heavy Inkstone Mountain to practice the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique.
As for the Scorching Sun Gang branch, due to the low terrain, even if he stayed on the roof, it would be difficult for him to seize the opportunity to absorb the rising sun's purple qi in time for cultivation.
Naturally, his path of cultivation had reached a standstill.
"Also, now that I have enough money, perhaps I can practice drawing talismans according to the methods in the Hundred Talisman Catalog."
Previously, Ziyue had always yearned for the various mystical talismans in the Hundred Talisman Catalog. He wanted to practice drawing talismans.
However, because of his shyness, just the talisman brush required to draw talismans made him shrink back at the sight of it, and so he gave up.
The talisman brush required to draw talismans was completely different from ordinary brushes.
The most ordinary one was the weasel hair brush.
One would cost at least three or four taels of silver.
The higher grade ones even required the hair of strange beasts with exuberant qi and blood. They had the effect of communicating with spirits, so the price was naturally high.
As for the talisman ink, although cinnabar could also be used, if one truly wanted to display the power described in the Hundred Talisman Catalog, one would generally need to use a higher grade of talisman ink.
As for the talisman paper, the hundred stacks of paper used by the government for the imperial examinations were enough. They were not rare outside, but the only thing was that they were expensive.
With his thoughts set, Ziyue also became much more relaxed. Just as he was about to get up and leave, a series of footsteps sounded from outside.
Immediately after, a series of knocks sounded from the door.
"Is Junior Martial Brother Mount Ziyue here?"
A somewhat young voice sounded from outside the door.
"Is it Senior Martial Brother Qin?
I'll open the door right away. "
Ziyue was slightly taken aback. He hurriedly got up and opened the door, asking doubtfully, "Is there something Senior Martial Brother Qin wants?"
The person who had come was indeed Qin Shaoping.
"Junior Martial Brother Mount Ziyue, I've come to congratulate you.
I originally received the news yesterday and rushed to the martial arts field early in the morning to tell you. Who knew that you actually didn't come today … "
As he spoke, Qin Shaoping said with a helpless expression.
He had intentionally woken up an hour earlier than usual this morning, just so that he could tell Qin Shaoping this good news as soon as possible.
"Congratulate?
What good news? "
Ziyue was still somewhat puzzled.
His plan this morning had yielded great results, and could be considered a joyous event.
However, it was obvious that the good news that Qin Shaoping spoke of had nothing to do with his matter.
