Chapter 19 Qingfeng Island changes drastically(1/2)
Qingfeng Island.
Zhang Liang returns and everything is safe.
Normally no one comes to my own little shabby house.
Outside, the sky is getting brighter.
When Zhang Liang went out, he found that half of the spiritual insects in his pond were missing.
"Hey! Did someone steal my spiritual insects?"
"You shouldn't! Who's family still lacks these spiritual insects?"
Almost every household of fishermen and farmers raises spiritual insects, because when hunting at sea, spiritual insects must be hung on hooks and ropes as bait.
Generally, a trip to the sea requires hundreds of spiritual insects, so breeding has become a habit.
There are mainly three types of spiritual insects that they can afford to raise, namely sea cockroaches, sword water fleas, and swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs.
There is no distinction between the three types of spiritual insects. The sea cockroach is a catch-all type and may take a bite from any fish. The water flea is an active type that likes to jump and can toss in the sea. It usually attracts ferocious and aggressive beasts.
.Swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs are beautiful, bright yellow, and most eye-catching in the sea, but their shells are too thick and their taste is not good.
To be on the safe side, Zhang Liang raised sea cockroaches. He didn’t want to attract aggressive beasts every time he went to sea, but the swallow-tailed horseshoe crabs ate too much, so they were abandoned by him.
now.
Zhang Liang lowered his head, inspected the pond, and finally found a green sea cockroach in the pond.
"Hey! Jasper cockroach, first-order spiritual insect?"
Zhang Liang was a little surprised. He looked around again and saw that there were corpses of other sea cockroaches everywhere, and he suddenly understood. He was not at home for a long time and did not feed, so these sea cockroaches began to kill each other, and finally the birth of
A first-order jasper cockroach?
However, although they are first-order spiritual insects, they are only low-grade first-order ones. Occasionally, other people will raise them. But the number is too small, it has no influence, and it is of little use.
If you get it from the Lingxian Tower and sell it, you can sell it for the price of one spirit stone, so usually everyone chooses to sell it as an extra income.
Zhang Liang now lacks everything, thinking that he is at the Blackfish Coral Reef and has to go to the sea locust area. Keeping this jade cockroach might be of some use.
Thinking that this thing might be useful, Zhang Liang paid some attention to spiritual insect breeding for the first time, so he fed some ordinary fish dry feed in the pond, thinking that he would observe it later.
As a result, he suddenly discovered that the jasper cockroach did not eat it.
"Huh? You don't like ordinary dried fish?"
Zhang Liang couldn't help but smile, then he looked around and threw some flesh and blood of first-level mid-level ferocious beasts into the pool.
Sure enough, this time the jasper cockroach moved and got directly into the flesh.
"Zhang Liang, what are you doing?"
Zhang Liang was about to observe when he heard a woman's voice not far away. It was his neighbor Wang Min.
Zhang Liang stood up, smiled casually and said, "Sister Min! I haven't put any food in the past two days, and I found that there are fewer spiritual insects in the pond."
Wang Min: "Without food, the spirit insects will naturally kill each other, which is a little bit normal. A first-order spirit insect was born in my pond two days ago, and I sold two spirit stones."
"Oh? The price has increased?"
Wang Min nodded: "Since those sect monks came, the prices of many basic things have begun to drop. On the contrary, the prices of things such as spirit worms that I usually don't care about have increased. If you also raise first-level spirit worms, you can also take advantage of this opportunity.
Sell it at a high price."
"Okay. Thank you Sister Min for reminding me."
Wang Min's words gave Zhang Liang several signals.
First of all, the sect monks have arrived.
Secondly, prices began to change.
The increase in the price of spiritual insects is by no means an accident. It only shows that the value of spiritual insects is already higher than that of a previous spiritual stone.
Thinking of this, Zhang Liang felt that maybe it was necessary for him to buy a spirit beast bag. If he could cultivate more first-level spirit insects, the value might be higher.
Wang Min paused and suddenly said: "Zhang Liang, I have something to tell you. My house has been rented to a monk from the sect. I will not live here for the next three years. If you see me in the future,
The monks of the sect must be more careful when dealing with this."
"Um?"
Zhang Liang was slightly startled: "Rented?"
Wang Min sighed slightly: "Rent it! 150 spirit stones in three years, why not rent it? The sect monks have high requirements, and we are the only original residents of Shili Linghu Lake on Qingfeng Island who built on the edge of the first-order spiritual veins, so
Most monks from the sect have taken a fancy to this place. At present, half of the fishermen and farmers in Shililing Lake have rented out their houses. I think there are also people visiting your house, but you seem to be very busy recently, so I didn't come across them.
"
"Ah! Yes, I'm quite busy and I don't come back often. Hey, Sister Min, where would you live if you don't live in Shili Linghu?"
"We people, aren't we casual? Qingfeng Island is so big, can't we just build a house along the coast? Anyway, there are not many people managing Qingfeng Island now."
"Indeed, congratulations to Sister Min."
Zhang Liang thinks that if you say that, then I also want to rent it. Maybe I can stay for two more days and wait to see if anyone comes to rent it.
…
Qingfengxianfang.
When Zhang Liang came here again, he was stunned for a moment. Is this still the original Qingfeng Xianfang?
In the past, there were only dozens of merchants in Qingfeng Xianfang, and fishermen and farmers generally would not come to the market unless necessary. But now...the scale of merchants has expanded dozens of times, not counting the stalls set up along the street.
At this moment, the Xianfang is crowded with people. A casual estimate would suggest that there are at least five or six hundred people.
Zhang Liang once wondered if he had gone to the wrong place.
It has to be said that Zhang Liang felt the vitality for the first time in Qingfeng Xianfang.
Although most of the people here are fishermen and farmers, there are occasionally young men and women wearing blue-grey robes among the crowd. These people have outstanding temperament and can be distinguished at a glance. When fishermen and farmers meet head-on, they have to avoid them for fear of bumping into each other.
But what surprised Zhang Liang was that these disciples of the sect, who were expected to be superior, actually opened a stall here and even hawked food along the street. This made him look up to the sect and suddenly dropped.
For example, someone is shouting constantly at this moment.
"Spirit lobster, the spirit lobster I just hunted. Fellow Taoists who haven't hunted it yet can come and have a look. The price is favorable."
"Tingshui Secret Technique is sold cheaply. It only costs ten spiritual stones. You can't suffer a loss or be cheated."
"There are only three rolls of deep-sea white silk. Some are fast, some are slow, some are slow. The stall will be closed when it is sold out..."
"..."
Zhang Liang came to the stall and saw that it was filled with jade slips. He was about to ask when he heard the disciple of the sect said: "Fellow Taoist, would you like a copy of the Secret Technique of Listening to Water? This method is the only one on Qingfeng Island.
Even Lingxian Tower doesn’t have one.”
Zhang Liang asked, is this awesomeness a bit too much?
The stall owner seemed to sense Zhang Liang's suspicion and couldn't help but said: "If you don't believe it, fellow Taoist, just buy it and take a look at it. This technique coincides with the rhythm and allows you to listen to various sounds at the bottom of the sea."
Zhang Liang smiled slightly: "It's a pity that I'm too poor. Forget it, I'll take a look again."
Things that can be bought with ten spirit stones are not available in Lingxian Tower. Is it because they don’t want to include them at all?
"No! Fellow Taoist, I think you are destined to me, how about I give you a 20% discount?"
"Feel sorry."
Zhang Liang hurriedly left the stall. It was said that the disciples of the sect could not afford to be offended, and if they were resented if they did not buy something, then the gain would outweigh the loss.
Along the short journey, Zhang Liang saw some people selling tortoise shell materials, some selling magic weapons, some drawing talismans on the spot, some showing formations, and some selling spiritual insects. He was really dazzled by what he saw.
Sure enough, the arrival of the sect brought vitality to Qingfeng Island and also brought hope to the fishermen and farmers.
Zhang Liang did not stay at these stalls, but turned around and entered Lingxian Tower.
Nowadays, Lingxian Tower has one more floor than before. After asking around, it is said that the second floor is where high-grade magical instruments, elixirs, exercises, formations, and talismans are sold. As the grade increases, the prices will naturally increase.
For example, the Green Sword Talisman has been reduced to two spiritual stones per piece, the spiritual liquid has been reduced to seven spiritual stones per bottle, and the price of the storage bag has been directly discounted by half. Almost all the original first-level and low-grade items have been discounted a lot.
Zhang Liang sold a spiritual lobster, and its price was suddenly reduced to 18 spiritual stones per piece, which made Zhang Liang stunned.
After much hesitation, Zhang Liang did not go to the second floor.
Even though he was an aboriginal fisherman and farmer, he could afford to buy things on the second floor, but if he really spent a lot of money, it was uncertain where the money came from, whether he would attract attention, and whether he would be suspected of murdering people and grabbing treasures.
On the other hand, the shops selling stalls outside sell a mess, but you can find something useful.
As for the second floor of Lingxian Building, it won't be too late in a few months, and it will be reasonable in the eyes of others, thinking that you are the spiritual stone that you have worked hard to save.
on the street.
Zhang Liang searched for a while and came to a stall selling spiritual insect breeding. This stall was relatively remote and not many people stopped there.
The person setting up the stall was a female cultivator from the sect. Her strength was unclear, so she was probably stronger than herself.
There are some low-level spiritual insects on the stall, as well as related jade slips of martial arts.
Seeing Zhang Liang coming over, the female cultivator's eyes lit up: "Does this fellow Taoist want to know the magic method of controlling insects or the method of cultivating spiritual insects?"
