Chapter 50: Stepping through the iron shoes and finding nowhere
Xie Yu asked Xu Xiaozhang to search in the dungeon to find the Qi left by Xie Yu on Gongshu Mujiu's jade... to confirm whether Gongshu Mujiu and Xie Yu were locked up in the same place.
Fortunately, Xu Xiaozhang finally found the Qi left by Gongshu Mujiu along the way according to Yu's instructions.
In other words, the scattered Qi power left clues to Xu Xiaozhang like a mark.
Although jade can accommodate and preserve Qi, it cannot stop Qi from evaporating... Both the masters and the warriors understand this truth.
Qi will scatter from the jade bit by bit over time, leaving it in the air, and then "return to the cloud". Then track the jade and inject the same Qi into it, and then carve the corresponding "resonance" talisman to identify the other party's direction... This is a simple short-distance tracking.
For long-distance tracking, we need to add the "phase" talisman and the "common flow" talisman... Among them, "phase" is to distinguish the retention direction of Qi, and "common flow" is to absorb the same-original Qi, so that the tracking effect can be achieved.
Tracking jade was also developed from this... The principle seems simple, but in fact it is quite complicated.
Just like long-distance tracking requires several problems... The irregular course of the target's travel may lead to errors... Furthermore, the Qi in the target jade is completely dispersed.
So Xu Xiaozhang has taken detours along the way... He has made several circles in the dungeon... Now he has arrived in Fengxiang, and has gone around the streets and alleys, and has traveled through the crowd temple fairs, but he has not obtained the position of Gongshu Mujiu.
After a morning of searching, Xu Xiaozhang felt a little hungry. He touched the few coins left in his bag and couldn't help but frown slightly.
Xu Xiaozhang has lived to this day, and has never been panicked about coins in his previous life...so he has never been grinded by money.
Since he was young, his family was rich and later became a hero, countless great heroes wanted to be friends with him... and gave him money and gifts. At first he sneered at him... but after a long time, everyone was friends, so it was really hard to refuse... So he began to spend money to support those who were suffering from the stomach, which was unnecessary.
Now that Xu Xiaozhang is traveling far away, he comes from Jingchu to the north, and goes up the river... He is suffering from money along the way...
At the beginning, I could kill a few evil people and take money... But in this world, how can I get money as a evil person?
"Unfortunate." Xu Xiaozhang cursed inwardly and rubbed his soft and shriveled belly.
Now there is no more money except the "sword and shield" given by Mr. Lao Shizi in his waist.
In order to save money, he didn't eat in the morning. He was tired all morning and exhausted his energy. He was really hungry... He also lost his strength.
Although these money is precious, you have to overcome this temporary difficulty at this time.
Walking around the world requires money everywhere... One penny is to kill the hero.
He came to a small shop, found a seat beside the corner of the wall, asked the servant in the shop for a bowl of plain noodles, then supported his head with his hands, and began to think about how to find Gongshu Mujiu as soon as possible.
Although this store is small, it seems to have a good reputation, but it is full of guests at noon, bustling and lively.
The guests sat casually in the store and talked loudly. Some thought it was too hot, so they took off their coats and were bare-handed. Some felt itchy and reached out to scratch their scalp... Etiquette is popular among nobles. Ordinary families are just kind and kind, but they don't think that noisy will damage etiquette.
The guests were dressed in different clothes, including vendors, rangers, pawns, and witches.
In this way, there is a vulgar but simple charm.
Sitting opposite Xu Xiaozhang were probably several rangers, wearing swords on his waist, short clothes and brown skirts, all of which exposed his chest.
A man squatted on a wooden chair with his feet, picked up a jar of wine from the table and poured it into his mouth... The jar was not big, so he just closed his hands, but he couldn't hold it back.
There were ten jars of wine on the table of those Rangers. Although the wine was not good, in this era, even if it was considered to be such a low-quality ginseng water wine, it could be called a little capable in this small shop... Civilians cannot afford to drink at all. People in the world are good at drinking, but they don’t have much money to drink... So people are like this. If they don’t have money, they will squander it.
Xu Xiaozhang had a judgment in his heart that these rangers had made some money and came here to find some fun.
"Brother, please wait, there are many more." The person sitting opposite the drinker spoke, his voice a little loud.
The elder brother patted the drunken wine on the table, making a deafening sound, then lifted up the corner of his shirt with some wine, and wiped it on his mouth, not forgetting to scold his brother.
"Third brother, since you have money, you have to have fun... Otherwise, why should we seek wealth?" He smiled. "Second brother, do you think so?"
"That's right, my brother said it right... We are people in the world, what we ask for is just avenge and revenge, what we ask for is this?" The other person sitting next to the third brother pointed to a jar of wine in his hand, then imitated the eldest brother, pulled out the seal, lifted the wine and poured it into his mouth... This person was the second brother in the eldest brother's mouth.
"Brother...I always feel a little uneasy." The third brother was a little worried and hugged the jar of wine he handed him to him, but he didn't drink it.
"What are you thinking?" The eldest brother felt a little disappointed, but his brother always had to give him comfort. "This is real money and silver... We bought these wines openly this time. What are you not at ease?"
"Brother... it's not this wine." The third brother replied. "It's this money... I always feel a little uneasy."
"What are you thinking?" The elder brother was a little angry. "Didn't this money come here seriously? How good is it that you didn't steal or rob?"
"No...I think the money is too easy." The third brother continued to answer. "Besides...I see those people look like human teeth."
"Shut up." The second brother put down the wine pot in his hand, patted the third brother's head heavily, and whispered. "There are many people here. If you ask someone to listen, you will ignore the morality of the world and put the employer in a crisis... Do you still want to continue to make money from them?"
