Chapter 14 Insect in the Stone
"I plan to sell each fossil for 10,000 spirit stones. Who is willing to be the first to come up and draw the lottery?" Long Xuan suddenly shouted after scanning the faces of everyone around him.
At this moment, everyone's expressions were not calm. They said whoever bought it was a fool, but now they are all fools.
No way, it's too cheap.
The Stone King originally sold for 10 million, but now you only need 10,000 spiritual stones to exchange for one-fiftieth of its parts to achieve great luck.
Although this situation has basically confirmed that the gamble is ruined, we are not afraid of 10,000, we are afraid of what if, what if?
What if the spirit insect is really hiding in a certain fossil and has not been discovered? This is entirely possible in theory.
The most important thing is that it is cheap. Even if you lose the bet, you can still afford the loss.
And once the bet is won, spiritual insects of any value may be found based on the appearance of this stone, and then the fortune will really be made.
It's totally worth the gamble and you'll get a huge profit.
Anyone who doesn't bet is stupid.
All the gamblers were breathing rapidly, showing greedy looks, and their eyes seemed to want to eat people.
At this time, they finally realized that Long Xuan had obtained this stone king at no cost, so he dared to sell it at a low price without feeling distressed. He would make a profit no matter how many spiritual stones he sold. He was really a treacherous kid.
Long Xuan was very satisfied with everyone's expressions. As expected, everyone's mentality is to be greedy for petty gains.
As long as the price is cheap enough, there will definitely be people who are lucky, and there will be people who will be fooled and their plans will succeed.
Qian Duoduo was confused at this time. He didn't expect that gambling on stones could still be played like this.
In the past, everyone just cut the fossils into powder or packed them away. How could anyone cut a few pieces and sell the remaining materials at a low price? This has no precedent before.
However, today he finally saw that gambling on stones can still be played like this.
I have to say that this trick is very good. Taking advantage of the gamblers' mentality of picking up bargains with their small fortunes, they are really willing to spend spiritual stones to trade.
Although he didn't make much, it was better than losing everything, not to mention that Long Xuan didn't pay a single spiritual stone today, so he would make a profit as long as he sold it.
In the end, everything went according to the script arranged by Long Xuan.
Dozens of fossils were snatched up like crazy, everyone lost their minds, and dozens of fossils were snatched up in an instant.
Only the smallest fist-sized fossil remains that no one cares about.
This fossil is too small, about the same size as a spirit worm. The possibility of finding a spirit worm is infinitely close to zero, so no one is willing to take it. The price of ten thousand spirit stones is only very small compared to the stone king, but in fact it is For every poor casual cultivator, it is no longer a small amount. Ten thousand spirit stones are not worth gambling on such a small stone. The price is too high.
What's more, Longxuanhouzai actually sells all sizes of stones at the same price. If everyone else buys a big one for the same price, you buy a small one. This will make people feel unbalanced and feel like a loss. , with this kind of mentality, it is even more impossible to sell Long Xuan's small stone.
So even if he desperately begged others, no one was willing to take it, and they all waved their hands and left, cursing him for being crazy for thinking about spiritual stones. Who would trade 10,000 spiritual stones for such a small stone? Whoever did it would be stupid.
In this way, this fossil containing the best spiritual insect had to stay in Long Xuan's hands, and there was no way to give it away.
After returning home, Long Xuan held up the fist-sized fossil, looked at it excitedly, and giggled non-stop.
"After all the mechanisms have been exhausted, it finally fell into my hands. I don't know if this harvest will allow me to successfully create the best Gu recipe."
Long Xuan gently stroked the stone, his eyes full of anticipation.
After playing with it for a while, he finally started cutting the stone.
The fossil was not big, so it didn't take him long at all. Not long after, he successfully pulled out something long like an eye.
The eyes also woke up at this moment, and slowly opened them. There was an evil aura in the eyes, which looked very ominous.
In this world, there are even natural Gu insects in the form of energy, so what's so strange about the appearance of a spiritual insect with eyes like eyes? Long Xuan was not surprised at all.
On the contrary, he was very excited. If you want to ask which type of Gu cultivator in this world likes blood contract the most.
The natural type of Gu ranked second, and the first one was definitely the pupil Gu. The pupil Gu was also the rarest type of Gu in the world.
Most of the internal Gu suck the spiritual power or blood of the Gu cultivator, but the pupil Gu, although it is an internal Gu, sucks the spiritual power of the Gu cultivator, forming a system of its own.
Pupil Gu feeds on mental power and can perform all kinds of incredible illusions. Illusion is a method of hurting people that is even more difficult to prevent than poison. Gu cultivators who are proficient in illusions are often much stronger than ordinary Gu cultivators.
Each type of pupil Gu is born with a powerful illusion. The most heaven-defying illusion in this world can only be performed by pupil Gu. In other words, only pupil Gu can exert its strongest power. That is why pupil Gu has such a transcendent power in this world. status.
Now that a pupil insect appeared in front of his eyes, how could Long Xuan not be excited?
In the past, when he created his own Gu recipe, he did not dare to use too rare materials. Many materials were hard to come by, or even rare in a hundred years. If you were unlucky, you would never see them again.
If you can't find the materials, what's the use of studying the poison recipes so well?
Therefore, Long Xuan's long-term plan was to create his own Gu recipe based on the rare materials he collected, instead of creating the Gu recipe and then searching for the materials all over the world.
Now that the rare material is available, he can use this rare material as the main material to create his own pupil Gu.
As for which direction this pupil Gu should be studied, Long Xuan had already made a decision in his heart.
He couldn't decide what kind of illusion each pupil Gu would carry, but he could still decide what basic abilities the pupil Gu would have.
He doesn't care about other aspects, but this pupil Gu must have one ability, which is the microscopic magnification ability that he has always been thinking about...
He quickly took out a pen and paper, quickly ran to the table and chair and sat down, and started to create his second Gu recipe with great interest.
This eye is very likely to be an insect species that has been extinct for a long time in ancient times, but Long Xuan can't even recognize all the existing insect species, so how can he recognize this extinct spiritual insect long ago.
But this will not hinder him. Long Xuan has already discovered through research that this golden finger is based on the host's cognition, rather than the name of the insect species in this world.
He can even use modern Chinese characters to create his own poison recipe. Various microorganisms in this world have not yet been named. He can name them casually, but Goldfinger can completely identify them.
Since you don't know what kind of insect this is, just name it casually. You don't have to think about whether it sounds good or not, just call it the Eye in the Stone.
Anyway, the same thing often has different names in different places. So what if this bug is called another name in your own home?
Long Xuan quickly wrote the three words "Eye in the Stone" on the paper. As expected, Golden Finger completely recognized it, and progress immediately appeared.
Long Xuan's writing seemed to be full of energy. He thought of an old saying in the countryside: A bull's eye sees a person's greatness, while a goose's eye sees a person's weakness.
So geese like to chatter and chase people.
Cows, on the other hand, regard humans as being in a stable, so they work hard without complaining, even if they are whipped, they do not know how to resist.
Since bull's eyes have the ability to magnify things, Long Xuan's first thought would naturally be bull's eyes.
The principle of Gu is that insects devour each other. He didn't know if it would work to put bull's eyes that were not insects into it.
But there is a bug fixer, so why not give it a try? It doesn't cost anything anyway, it just wastes a few seconds at most.
Long Xuan took up his pen and wrote on the bull's eye, and the progress on the Gu prescription immediately increased slightly.
A smile appeared on Long Xuan's lips, and he knew he had succeeded.
