2175 Open the door

Night covers the earth.

In the bustling city with bright lights, there is a narrow alleyway paved with bluestone slabs.

The lane is long and gloomy, with quaint and old-fashioned three-story buildings on both sides, old-fashioned wooden wooden doors of shops whose colors have been eroded by wind and rain, and moss in the gaps between the stone slabs, all exuding a mottled atmosphere of time.

It's okay during the day, and the shops on both sides are quite busy when they're open.

But at night, there is only one vermilion-painted door with a pawn shop plaque in the entire alleyway, and a pair of white air-dead wind lanterns hanging in front of the door, which makes the already damp and narrow alleyway even more eerie.

Tap tap tap!

In this ghostly place where no one could be hit with a stick, there was suddenly a sound of slight footsteps.

A figure wearing a peaked cap, a mask on his face, and a magic mirror in the middle of the night. It was impossible to see his true face at the entrance of the alley. After a slight hesitation, he looked around and slowly walked towards the only person who was angry.

The pawn of the wind lantern walks away.

Standing in front of the pawn shop, the figure looked carefully under the dim light of the angry wind lantern, and found that there were three faded gilded characters "Pawn Shop" on the plaque and two extremely inconspicuous two characters in the lower right corner.

When I heard the word "Kaitai", I let out a long sigh of relief.

But the figure didn't knock on the door immediately. He carefully searched the walls on both sides of the pawn shop for a long time. When he saw a strange sign that looked like a child's scribblings, he determined that this was the goal of his trip, and then gently

He started banging on the wooden door that had lost most of its paint.

Tuk-tuk...tuk-tuk...tuk-tuk...tuk-tuk...tuk-tuk...tuk-tuk...

The knocks on the door seemed chaotic, but in fact they were extremely regular, with two short and three long knocks. After knocking three times in a row, the figure stopped and waited quietly.

I don't know how long it took, but there was still no movement inside the door, but the figure didn't look impatient. He stood in front of the door as quietly as a sculpture, as if he was sure that there was someone in the pawn shop and the door would open sooner or later.

"Zizzi!"

The seemingly ancient old-fashioned wooden door suddenly opened without warning, and opened to both sides like an electric door, revealing a passage that only allowed one person to pass through.

It was pitch dark inside the door, you couldn't see your fingers, and you didn't see anyone coming to greet you, but the figure walked in without any surprise.

The figure entered the door and stood still, and the wooden door behind him quietly closed again, making the already dark room even darker and more terrifying.

"What is the reason why a stranger comes to open the door for me?"

A hoarse and old voice came from all directions.

"Junior Sun Yaozu of Yao Wang Gu paid his respects to Senior Opener. He has something to ask for."

Although the figure couldn't see clearly, he still showed enough etiquette, clasped his fists and bowed respectfully.

"Since Old Man Sun's grandson can find this place, he should know my rules for opening the door."

The old voice was cold and unhurried, showing no hint of joy because Sun Yaozu was an old friend.

"Since this junior is here, he naturally knows the rules. Senior, please take a look."

Sun Yaozu took out a wooden box from his arms, bowed at sixty degrees, lowered his head, raised his hands to the level of his eyebrows, and said with great respect.

He was still wondering how the senior who opened the door would take the things away if he didn't show up, but he felt a light touch in his hand and the wooden box disappeared.

Photographing objects from the sky?

Sun Yaozu was shocked. He thought that his grandfather's previous description of the power of opening the door was just an exaggeration, and he was quite disdainful in his heart. He came here just with the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that there was just a "little boy" who was waiting for guests outside the door.

"Two" actually has the ability to photograph objects from the air. Then the appraiser, accountant, and shopkeeper behind him

And how powerful the people from the inner sect must be?

You must know that photographing objects in the air can only be done after condensing martial souls. This means that the "boy" in front of him who has never shown up is at least a strong man in the divine martial realm. The knowledge of opening the door is profound.

One can imagine.

This forced him to put away all his contempt, his attitude became more and more respectful, and he drooped his head without even daring to raise it.

The Sheng Gate is one of the eight odd gates: Kai, Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Death, and Jing.

Although Yaowang Valley is a member of the Shengmen sect among the eight sects, it belongs to the logistics support department of the Qi sect and has no habit of competing with the other seven sects in terms of force.

But precisely because of this, even if the Qi Sect is divided and the eight sects do not agree and stand on their own, the other seven sects are all in the same position. Only Yaowang Valley has always been neutral and maintained a decent relationship with each sect.

In other words, these seven Qi sects all owe Yao Wang Valley a favor. After all, people are wandering in the rivers and lakes. How can they not be stabbed? Everyone has to ask for Yao Wang Valley. Therefore, Yao Wang Valley is in Qi.

There is still some dignity in the eyes of the disciples.

But this face is not absolute. Opening, sleeping, and living are all three auspicious gates. They are relatively closely related. Generally speaking, as long as the request is not very difficult, face will be given to opening and sleeping.

The two sects of Du and Jing belong to Zhongping, but their status in Qi sect is very important. It acts like a harmonious agent, so it is generally given Wanggu three-point thin noodles.

However, this is not necessarily the case for the Injury, Death, and Shock gates. These three gates are vicious gates, and the people in these gates are violent and moody. When they are happy, they may give face to Shiwanggu, but when they are unhappy, it is normal to kill someone directly.

But even the most closely related door opener has its own rules. If you don't follow the rules, even if your grandfather comes in person, you will never give him face.

Opening the door belongs to metal, and only recognizes money but not people. Of course, this money is not ordinary money, but some rare treasures or objects. If you want to ask the door to do something or buy some urgently needed treasure, you must take it out.

Just open the door and exchange the treasures of equal value.

"The five-hundred-year-old Blood Jade Ganoderma lucidum is quite good. Tell me, are you asking for a favor or a treasure?"

Time passed minute by second, and just when Sun Yaozu maintained his respectful posture without moving, and his neck was a little sore, the old voice said slowly, and his tone became slightly gentler, as if he was not too fond of the blood jade Ganoderma lucidum.

satisfy.

"Asking for treasure."

When Sun Yaozu received the response, he felt relieved and answered immediately.

"He Bao?"

The old voice said calmly.

"Nine-flowered Jade Cauldron!"

Sun Yaozu bowed his hands respectfully.

The scene fell into deathly silence, and there was no response from the old voice, which made Sun Yaozu's heart suddenly rise.

"not enough."

After a long time, the old voice said calmly, as if after weighing the value, he thought that a five-hundred-year-old blood jade Ganoderma lucidum was not enough to exchange for the nine-flower sapphire tripod.

Sun Yaozu's body twitched with pain, and he secretly cursed that the door was too dark. In ancient times, blood jade Ganoderma lucidum that was five hundred years old was indeed not enough to exchange for the Nine Flowers Jade Cauldron.

But in the modern era where the ecological environment is getting worse and worse, not to mention the 500-year-old blood jade Ganoderma lucidum, even the century-old wild Ganoderma lucidum is priceless.

What's more, the Nine-Flower Jade Cauldron was originally an ancestral possession of Yaowang Valley. It was only mortgaged to open the door because of the shortage of funds due to the family's migration.

Although the current period has long passed and the Nine Flowers Jade Cauldron has been opened, there are not many people in the world who are good at alchemy. This alchemy cauldron is still open and no one cares about it. It can only be found in Yaowang Valley or Holy Doctor.

Only in the hands of disciples can it play its due role without wasting natural resources.

Although he was dissatisfied, Sun Yaozu did not dare to say anything. He was bound to get the Nine Flowers Jade Cauldron. He immediately endured the pain and took out a wooden box from his arms and presented it with both hands: "Senior, what if we add this Yuan Zeng Yuan?"

Where’s Dan?”

"Zeng Yuan Dan?"

The old voice finally moved, and the always calm tone had a hint of urgency and excitement. He repeated his old trick, and the wooden box in Sun Yaozu's hand disappeared again.

A look of pride appeared on Sun Yaozu's lips, knowing that such pills that could increase one's skill were irresistibly attractive to these old guys.

This made him feel a little regretful even though he was proud. The blood jade Ganoderma lucidum was the main medicine that could be used to refine heaven-level elixirs. It was a pity that Yaowang Valley did not have an alchemist who could refine heaven-level elixirs. Otherwise, he would

Even if he was beaten to death, he would not be willing to exchange the blood jade Ganoderma lucidum for the Nine Flowers Jade Cauldron.

"Even though a low-level earth-level person can only increase his power for three years, it's still pretty good..."

The old voice was slightly dissatisfied with the grade of the elixir, and couldn't help but ponder, as if weighing the pros and cons.

Sun Yaozu's confident heart suddenly rose again, and he secretly cursed this old guy for being greedy. The low-grade prefecture-level elixirs were also prefecture-level elixirs, which were the highest level of elixirs he could refine at present.

But if you have the Nine-flower Jade Cauldron, it will be different. Not only can you greatly increase the rate of elixirs, but with luck, you may be able to refine prefecture-level middle-grade elixirs.

After discovering that Ding Ning was a warrior, he felt a little unsure. Although he thought that even if Ding Ning knew how to make elixirs, he might not be able to refine earth-level elixirs, he was not afraid of anything less than ten thousand.

He is bound to win against Xue Mili. He must win this competition, and the Nine Flowers Jade Cauldron is his greatest guarantee of victory.

For this reason, he would not hesitate to exchange the 500-year-old Blood Jade Ganoderma lucidum, which is regarded as the treasure of the Yaowang Valley, for the Nine-flowered Sapphire Cauldron.

"That's all. Although there are some shortcomings, we are both from a strange sect after all. Just treat Yaowanggu as a favor that I owe me for opening the door and let's seal the deal."

After the old voice pondered for a long time, he reluctantly agreed to the deal and unilaterally made Yaowanggu owe a favor.

Sun Yaozu was so filled with hatred that he finally understood why his grandfather had told him the contact information to open the door, but he had repeatedly warned him not to deal with them unless absolutely necessary. The opening of the door was simply too scary.

They are just a bunch of shameless profiteers.

Although I was secretly resentful in my heart, I didn't dare to show it at all on my face. With a grateful smile, I deeply clasped my fists and bowed: "Thank you, senior, for your help."

Until he walked out of the gloomy alley and got into a taxi, Sun Yaozu was still secretly aching. But as soon as he saw the nine-flower sapphire tripod in his arms, his heart became hot and he threw away all his worries and unhappiness.

The back of the head.

The Nine-flowered Jade Cauldron, the alchemy furnace of his ancestor Sun Simiao, has returned to Yaowang Valley after fifty years. The most important thing is that with the Nine-flowered Jade Cauldron, he has absolute confidence that he can defeat Ding Ning and finally win the victory.

The beauty has returned.

In fact, although Xuemili is extremely beautiful, what attracts him more is her identity. As long as he can marry Xuemili, he will be the son-in-law of the Rothschild family. With such an identity, he can

Become a master, be admired and respected by everyone wherever you go, and step by step reach the pinnacle of life.

Although he is the most talented disciple among the younger generation of Medicine King Valley and the future heir to the Valley Master, he has no intention of doing so. So what if he becomes the Valley Master? He can't just stay in the valley full of medicinal materials.

He will grow old slowly like a farmer.

At best, he is called a hermit. At worst, he is just a farmer. The only difference is that farmers grow crops while others grow medicinal herbs.
