Chapter 79 Jade Slips (please follow up)
Wu Tao asked Chen Yao to make some spiritual tea, and then invited Gu Mingsheng and his wife. Chen Quanshou sat around on the coffee table, drinking spiritual tea, eating some spiritual fruits, and talking slowly.
Chen Quanshou took a sip of tea and then said, "Master Li, I have no choice. I also heard that Fellow Taoist Gu said that Master Li was a righteous man, so he thought of asking fellow Taoist Gu to be a middleman and ask Master Li for help." !”
Wu Tao smiled and said:
"I met Gu Daoyouxian and his wife once, so I can trust them since Gu Daoyouxian is willing to be the middleman.
Then, it must be something that is well thought out and within my power. Therefore, please don’t be polite, Fellow Daoist Chen, just say it. "
Li Feiyao smiled and said:
"That's the way Mr. Chen's temperament is. He's not very happy. But he is definitely trustworthy. Otherwise, my husband and I would not be the middlemen. If Master Li is harmed, it will not be of any benefit to us."
Chen Quanshou was a little embarrassed by Li Feiyao's teasing. He looked at Wu Tao and said, "In that case, Chen said that I would like to borrow two magic weapons from Master Li, the Jinming Sword and the Diamond inner armor.”
This golden sword and diamond inner armor are both first-level and seventh-level magic weapons. As an offensive weapon, the Jin Ming Sword costs one hundred mid-grade spiritual stones, while the Diamond Inner Armor is a defensive weapon, and its price is twenty mid-grade spiritual stones more expensive than the former.
A total of two hundred and twenty middle-grade spiritual stones.
This is not a small amount.
Gu Mingsheng is a casual cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining. As his friend Chen Quanshou, he is at the worst level at the seventh level of Qi Refining. Judging from his strong aura, he should also be at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Moreover, most of the people who got close to Gu Mingsheng and made friends were adventurers, who hunted monsters, picked elixirs, and explored cave ruins.
The life of an adventurer is very unstable. They use their lives to earn spiritual stones. One day, they may be buried in the demon's belly, or they may die quietly in the mechanisms of those cave ruins.
Therefore, when Chen Quanshou opened his mouth, he paid for two first-level and seventh-level magic weapons on credit.
This is against the rules.
If Chen Quanshou is robbed outside, this account may become a confusing account.
Gu Mingsheng is willing to be a guarantor, so he can ask Gu Mingsheng for repayment, but in this case, their friendship will deteriorate.
Gu Mingsheng would not help him pay attention to the life-extending elixir.
However, after all, it was Gu Mingsheng who introduced him. If he didn't agree now, it would be a disgrace to Gu Mingsheng's face. The friendship between the two people could not be justified.
"It's just two first-level and seventh-level magic weapons. If you can get the news about the life-extending elixir, it will be worth it!"
Wu Tao quickly weighed it up and made a decision. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Chen Quanshou continue:
"Master Li, this time I encountered an enemy outside, and all the magic weapons were destroyed, otherwise I wouldn't be in this situation.
But don't worry, since I'm here to get credit, I'm not here with a dirty mouth and white teeth. Wouldn't this put Fellow Daoist Gu into an unjust situation? "
"Master Li, I pledge this thing to you. If I fail to repay the money in time, this thing will belong to Master Li.
Of course, as a middleman, Taoist Friend Gu, if he wants this thing, he can also repay the spirit stone for me, and this thing can also belong to Friend Gu.
After Chen Quanshou said this, he took out something from his body and put it on the coffee table in front of Wu Tao.
When Gu Mingsheng saw this thing, his face was slightly moved, and he lost his voice and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, are you willing to take this thing out?"
Seeing Gu Daosheng's shocked look, Wu Tao cast his gaze on the tea table. The thing Chen Quanshou took out was a rectangular piece of jade the size of a baby's palm, and the whole was bright yellow.
A term came to his mind.
"Jade slips?"
When Wu Tao said this, he was slightly shocked.
Jade slips can only be made by foundation-building immortal cultivators and above. They will record their own insights or secrets of skills into the jade slips to preserve or pass them on to future generations.
With the opportunity of a casual cultivator, it is impossible to obtain the inheritance of a foundation-building immortal cultivator.
Therefore, the jade slips Chen Quanshou took out were undoubtedly the inheritance of a foundation-building immortal cultivator.
Chen Quanshou nodded and said: "Yes, this is exactly a jade slip. I got it from the ruins of a dilapidated cave more than ten years ago."
"However, I don't know what exactly is stored in this jade slip."
"There are restrictions set by the foundation-building immortal cultivators on it. I have been spending a little bit of it every day for more than ten years, and until now, I have not eliminated the restrictions on it."
"I estimate that in another twenty or thirty years, the restrictions on this jade slip should be completely eliminated."
"This is the only valuable thing on my body. I want to use this as a mortgage. I wonder what Master Li's intention is?"
After Chen Quanshou finished speaking, he was helpless. He had encountered an enemy some time ago, and his magic weapon was damaged and his storage bag was taken away. If he hadn't secretly placed the jade slip somewhere else, it would have been taken away.
In three days, he is going to explore the ruins of a cave. Without a magic weapon, how can he ensure his life safety?
As long as he gained something from the cave ruins, the jade slip would eventually return to his hands. Thinking of this, Chen Quanshou felt a little at ease.
Wu Tao pondered for a moment and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, these jade slips are too valuable. Even two first-level and ninth-level magic weapons are not worthy of such a mortgage by Friend Daoist Chen."
"Since Fellow Daoist Chen is acquainted with Fellow Daoist Gu and has Fellow Daoist Gu as a guarantor, so what if I lend Fellow Daoist Chen two first-level and seventh-level magic weapons on credit?"
Chen Quanshou shook his head and said: "Master Li is loyal and considers me a good friend. I, Chen Quanshou, cannot help but think about Master Li. Those two magic weapons were refined by Master Li and Master Qi... Moreover, I We must also consider fellow Taoist Gu...this is what a good friend should do..."
Seeing that he insisted on doing this, Wu Tao could only sigh: "It is said that adventurers are cunning and deceitful, but I see that Fellow Daoist Gu and Fellow Daoist Chen are worthy of entrustment and trustworthy..."
"Sure, just follow what Fellow Taoist Chen said."
Chen Quanshou then smiled and said: "That's right. There is a saying in the world, brothers settle accounts clearly. I have made Master Li a friend."
For a while, the atmosphere was very happy.
Wu Tao took the Vajra Armor and the Golden Ming Sword. Chen Quanshou gave the jade slip to Wu Tao and wrote a pledge. If he did not repay the spiritual stone within two months, the jade slip would belong to Wu Tao.
Gu Mingsheng also wrote a guarantee to guarantee that he would owe the Lingshi on credit this time.
After doing all this, Wu Tao put the jade slips into his storage bag and sent Gu Mingsheng, his wife, and Chen Quanshou out of the store.
"You three, walk slowly."
Looking at the three people's retreating figures, Wu Tao said to himself: "It's too difficult for casual cultivators and adventurers. If you are not careful, you may die unexpectedly. I hope that Fellow Daoist Chen is safe and sound. I will return this jade slip to him." "
…
Gu Mingsheng looked at Chen Quanshou, thought for a while and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, you just pledged that thing. Hey, with your eighth-level cultivation of Qi Refining, you can stop exploring the ruins of the cave and find other things first." You can earn some spiritual stones within a few years by doing other things."
Chen Quanshou smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Gu, when I go to the ruins, I will be able to redeem that thing."
Chen Quanshou was thinking in his heart that the ruins were about to be opened, and there were elixirs in them that could break through the ninth level of Qi refining. If he missed this time, he didn't know how many years and months he would have to wait.
Jade slips.
Just put it in Master Li's place for safekeeping for two months.
Two months later, the property was returned to its original owner.
Throughout his life, he had been venturing out and exploring countless ruins.
This time, he didn't think there would be any danger.
