Chapter 354 Sword Suppressor
"City Lord's Mansion?"
Liang Yan frowned slightly and asked with some uncertainty, "Could it be that the city lord of Zhiyuan City has a Four Seasons Split Flame Monkey at home?"
Bao Hongxin laughed and said: "Exactly! The adult Four Seasons Split Flame Monkey has the combat power in the late stage of foundation building and cannot be underestimated at all. But the one in the city lord's family has been raising it since he was a child and has long recognized it. For the Lord, now it can be regarded as a major force of Ximen City Lord."
"I see!"
Liang Yan nodded, took out another twenty spirit stones from his sleeve, and handed them to Bao Hongxin.
He had traveled extensively with Liang Xuan when he was a child, so he naturally knew that news was also a commodity, and it also required a price. Although the middle-aged man in front of him is very friendly, the businessman's goal is profit. If he doesn't pay some spiritual stones, he is afraid that the other party's information will be inaccurate.
Bao Hongxin casually glanced at the spirit stone in his hand, put it into his sleeve, and then smiled slightly and said: "You're welcome, fellow Taoist. In fact, this is not confidential information. If you are willing to ask around, you can do the same." Know."
Naturally, Liang Yan would not take these words seriously, but asked with a smile: "Since Shopkeeper Bao knows about the Four Seasons Split Flame Monkey in the City Lord's house, can you give Liang some guidance?"
After hearing this, Bao Hongxin pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, your request is not difficult to achieve. There is an excellent opportunity right in front of you."
"Oh?" Liang Yan's heart moved: "I would like to hear the details!"
Bao Hongxin nodded and said: "The lord of our Zhiyuan City, Ximen Hao, is a genuine swordsman. Ten years ago, he asked the master of weapon refining Baili Xuan to refine a high-grade flying sword for him. Now the flying sword is about to be cast. But Baili Xuan is worried that this sword may have a trace of spirituality, and the sword will escape when it is completed, so he has been suppressing the furnace lid and has been reluctant to release it. "
"There is such a thing!"
This was the first time Liang Yan heard that someone could produce a trace of spirituality when refining a flying sword! He couldn't help but have a reverie in his heart, but after a moment, he asked again: "What does this matter have to do with me?"
Bao Hongxin smiled lightly and said: "Fellow Daoist Liang, don't be anxious, just listen to what I have to say. Our Ximen City Lord is also a man who is as good at swordsmanship as his destiny. He has good swordsmanship skills, but he has always suffered from not having a good sword." The flying sword in his hand has been refused to condense the sword embryo. Therefore, the Lord of Ximen City is very concerned about the release of the flying sword. Not long ago, he followed Baili Xuan's suggestion and publicly summoned seven foundation-building monks throughout the city to do this. When the Feijian was released, a hundred high-level Qi refining monks were summoned to be the Sword Suppressor at the same time."
After hearing this, Liang Yan frowned slightly and said, "What do these Sword Suppressor and Qi Suppressant users mean?"
Bao Hongxin did not show off and replied directly: "The flying sword made by Baili Xuan is called the 'Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword'. When it comes out of the furnace, it will flee high into the sky. At that time, the Lord of Ximen City will lay down the Jiuyang Trap Dragon Formation, this formation requires eight swordsmen, each guarding the eight directions of east, west, south, north, southeast, southwest, northeast and northwest. In addition, one person is required to coordinate in the middle. This person is naturally Ximen Hao himself. ”
"The Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword is so sharp when it comes out of the furnace that no matter which direction it escapes, its power is like a full blow from a monk in the middle stage of foundation establishment. Therefore, the task of the eight Sword Suppressors is to do their best to resist the sword's attack. One blow and intercepted the fleeing 'Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword'."
"Once the city lord selects him as the sword wielder, as long as he successfully collects the flying sword in the end, Ximen Hao will be rewarded heavily. The monkey hair required to refine the 'Red Flame Pen' is not much, so I believe the city lord will agree to this request. .”
"I see." This time Liang Yan listened to Bao Hongxin finish his words in one breath, and then nodded and said: "This is indeed a feasible method, but I am only at the early stage of foundation building. Why do you think that I Are you up to the task?"
Bao Hongxin smiled slightly again and said: "Bao only provides information. As for the success or failure, it is not something Bao can control. Besides, the sword-suppressing user does not have to be in the middle stage of foundation building, no matter if he uses it once The most effective defensive weapon is a talisman, as long as it can withstand a full blow from a monk in the middle stage of foundation building."
When Bao Hong's new words came to this point, Liang Yan immediately understood. He had been a little confused just now. How could this dignified shop owner, whose cultivation was at the early stage of foundation building, come to reveal this information to him? Was it just for the sake of two people? Ten spiritual stones?
Obviously not!
Bao Hongxin had a smile on his face at this time, turned to point at the monks gathered at the purple talisman counter and said: "For example, these Qi Refining monks are also competing for the quota of one hundred Qi Suppressants. Although they do not have to directly resist Although he has the power of a flying sword, he will be attacked by the purple thunder energy, so he came to my store to buy this one-time lightning protection talisman. If Liang Daoyou sincerely wants to compete for the position of these seven sword-suppressing envoys, our store also has a The defensive talisman can be used three times. Although it cannot be said to completely resist the attack of the flying sword, it can at least relieve a lot of pressure on fellow Taoists. As for the price."
"What an 'urgent need'!" Liang Yan secretly praised after hearing this: "If there is no demand, we must create demand. Before entering the store, I never thought about buying finished talismans, but now even I feel that I I need a defensive talisman."
He knew in his heart that shopkeeper Bao was a businessman after all, so there was nothing wrong with his move. And if this matter is done to ordinary monks in the early stages of foundation building, it is indeed a win-win situation. Shopkeeper Bao can not only sell expensive talismans, but the other party can also get the monkey hair of the Four Seasons Fiery Monkey as he wishes.
But Liang Yan knew that he was not an ordinary monk in the early stage of foundation building. With his current strength, he was more than enough to deal with a full blow in the middle stage of foundation building. Therefore, Boss Bao's little calculation was destined to be nothing but water in a bamboo basket. It was a waste.
Liang Yan politely waited for him to finish speaking, then he cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Thank you, shopkeeper Bao, for telling the truth. It's just that Liang doesn't want to buy the talisman yet. If he wants to buy it in the future, he will definitely give priority to Mo Xuanzhai." 'of."
Bao Hongxin's expression didn't change at all after hearing this. He was also an old shopkeeper who had been working in shopping malls for many years. Naturally, he knew that in business, you can only do your best and never succeed. He smiled slightly and said: "Young Master Liang, you're welcome. We Mo Xuan Zhai welcomes Young Master Liang to visit us at any time."
Liang Yan nodded, said goodbye to Bao Hongxin, and took Ah-Dai out of the gate of Mo Xuanzhai.
It was almost dusk, and the setting sun shone on the gravel path the two were walking on, casting two long oblique shadows.
"Are we going to the 'City Lord's Mansion' in Zhiyuan City now?" Ah-Dai asked, following him.
Liang Yan paused for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"Go to Baili Mansion first."
