The person was finally found, and then it became a matter of 'compensation'.
Although this is embarrassing, it is easy for people to accept.
After all, it is better to be alive than to be dead, and it is better to spend some money to redeem one's ancestor than to collect his corpse.
Just how much of this spiritual stone should be sent really put this group of aristocratic families in a dilemma.
If you send too little, you are afraid that Mo You will dislike it and cause more trouble, but if you send too much, it will inevitably hurt your muscles and bones.
And there is also an issue with the number of tied ancestors.
Some families only have one or two tied ancestors, while some families have more than a dozen, plus there are ancestors in the Nascent Soul stage. How to calculate the net worth of these ancestors in the Nascent Soul stage?
And it’s not easy to bargain with Mo You on this matter. Bargaining with Mo You in front of the ancestor seems to be even more embarrassing!
Therefore, after discovering the whereabouts of the ancestors, this group of aristocratic families did not come to redeem them immediately. Instead, they sent people to 'protect' them nearby and held a collective meeting first.
It took another day, but Mo You came to redeem the person the next day.
These people spent a day unifying the prices. How much would an ancestor at the Golden Elixir stage give, and how much would an ancestor at the Nascent Soul stage give...
Mo You was not as open-minded as a lion in this regard. She would take whatever they gave her, but she was particularly easy to talk to.
There were no disputes and the deal was concluded smoothly. After everyone paid the money, Mo You happily let them go.
The ancestors didn't stay long, and they didn't even say much. When they left one by one, they walked smoothly and ran very fast, as if they were being chased by dogs from behind.
The ancestor left first, and the juniors who came to pay the ransom did not stay long. After a while, the gang left, leaving only Mo You alone in the warehouse.
…
There is no airtight wall in this world, especially during this period, the actions of these aristocratic families were too strange, and many monks were staring at these people curiously.
The reason why the monks didn't notice that their ancestor was kidnapped was because it was too bizarre and no one thought about it.
Now that these ancestors have been redeemed, these aristocratic families can also breathe a sigh of relief. As soon as the original tense state relaxes, others will notice the clues.
Although this news was too ridiculous to be accepted, there were so many monks who conducted research that the full story of the matter was quickly restored.
Then various rumors became more and more uncontrollable.
After all, this thing is too ridiculous, and the ancestors also want to lose face, and the younger members of the big family are also a bit embarrassed.
Therefore, the rumors range from the ancestors trying to kill a certain junior and then being killed and captured alive to a certain witch deliberately setting a trap against the ancestor, and the ancestor accidentally caught the opponent's path.
In the end, this rumor turned from a simple exchange between you and me into a conspiracy against Copper Pillar City.
Anyway, in the end, as word spread about this incident, Mo You turned into a heinous person with ulterior motives!
Fortunately, these people who spread lies still have some sense and did not involve this matter with Mo You, who had taught him before, thus blurring Mo You's identity.
But later someone revealed that it was some mud soldiers who kidnapped those ancestors.
Mo You has gained a bit of reputation in the world of cultivation because of his previous actions. The clay soldiers have become Mo You's "signature". Therefore, when someone heard about the clay soldiers, the ancestors who ambush Tongzhu City,
The name of Tongzhu City was placed on Mo You's head.
Mo You is now in disguise, and she has never introduced herself, so no one knows that Mo You is Mo You.
But this matter finally fell on Mo You, adding another layer to her mixed reputation.
However, Mo Youdao didn't care about these rumors.
What she is currently concerned about is the flying magic weapon.
Mo You felt like he had done some research.
She wants to add everything to this flying magic weapon. She wants it to have a huge space, different forms, can be freely expanded and retracted, can be used for defense and attack, has a place for planting and livestock, and can also gather.
Reiki, reduce energy consumption, etc.
It's not scary that there are so many things Mo You wants to add. What's scary is that she can do them all, and that's the scariest thing!
Obviously I can do it, but due to material limitations I have to give up some things, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Obviously he could have a unique and perfect work, but in the end it could only be a shoddy product. Mo You gradually had a new feeling, which is called heart-wrenching!
Even if Mo You got a windfall from these ancestors, she was still very careful about buying materials, and she was still short on spiritual stones.
What to do?
At this moment, Mo You was no longer thinking about the mission. All she could think about now was how this aircraft was doing. The only thing she still remembered was that she couldn't spend her spiritual stones.
After hesitating for a long time, Mo You decided to go to the secret realm to see if he could harvest some suitable treasures.
The reason why Mo You had such thoughts was because there was a secret realm about to be opened outside Tongzhu City.
The reason why the Bronze Pillar City was built here has something to do with the secret realm.
That secret realm is called the Copper Pillar Secret Realm. It is rich in various refining materials, including some top refining materials. Every time it is opened, it can cause a commotion.
To enter this secret realm, you need a secret realm key, and the secret realm keys of this secret realm have been almost monopolized by Copper Pillar City. If Mo You wants to visit this secret realm, he needs to get a secret realm key first.
On the surface, there are two ways to obtain the key to the secret realm. One is to become a vassal of Tongzhu City, and you can choose either the aristocratic family or the Cheng and Zhu faction.
The second is to pay attention to the auctions in Tongzhu City, and the one with the highest price will know.
Of course, Mo You can't be a vassal for others, but let's go to the auction, she already has 'no money' in her pocket.
To say that she has a lot of spiritual stones, it is definitely more than enough to buy a secret realm key.
But she had already spent all the funds for refining the weapon, and at this time, Mo You was still adhering to her somewhat strange principles.
Because she couldn't find any of these channels on the surface, Mo You finally thought of a way, and that was to sneak across the country!
Mo You could stuff Fuyao into a secret place that he could not enter, and of course he could also stuff himself into it.
It's just that she at least had the key to the secret realm as a medium before, so it would be easy to sneak across.
But now Mo You has nothing, so he can only do it more carefully.
But even if he adopts the method of smuggling, Mo You still needs spiritual stones to buy some materials.
So the problem is back to the original point. Now that Mo You has nothing in her pocket, how can she buy materials?
Mo You touched Fuyao's big tail and was not discouraged. Instead, he left the warehouse and walked around Tongzhu City to think of a solution.
The spies who were monitoring Mo You ran away in a hurry after discovering that Mo You left the warehouse. The movement was so loud that Mo You even looked at these people twice.
The fact that Mo You left the warehouse attracted great attention from the wealthy families in Tongzhu City. Wherever she went, there were people following her and monitoring her from a distance. Mo You didn't care about these things at all. If it were anyone else,
, it will definitely be annoying.
Of course, Mo You didn't have any good intentions.
Mo You walked around Tongzhu City and then stood on the gambling street of Tongzhu City!
Of course, the street itself is not called that. This street is a customization street. The shops inside are all opened by weapon refiners. Unlike those selling magic weapons outside, the main thing here is customization.
However, if a group of capable colleagues open a store together, comparisons will inevitably occur, and this will lead to a situation where no one is convinced by the other.
Of course, in addition to the internal competition in this street, there are also situations where foreign weapon refiners compete in restaurants.
This kind of thing is also very common. Playing in restaurants is also part of the communication between weapon refiners, and this kind of communication has derived some gambling properties.
From the bets between the weapon refiners to the bets between the monks who were watching.
Of course, unlike the unlimited bets between monks, this kind of gambling between weapon refiners and weapon refiners has unwritten rules...
Mo You entered this street, and her arrival attracted the attention of many people. Some weapon refiners even came out of the shop and stared at Mo You.
When people look at her, she looks at them too.
The weapon refiner who met Mo You's eyes had cold eyes and an aura that was not easy to mess with.
This refining master is a golden elixir stage, a golden elixir stage that Mo You has never seen before.
Mo You's steps turned around and headed directly towards the weapon refiner's store.
When she arrived at the door of the store, the weapon refiner did not move at all and blocked the door directly, making it clear that Mo You would not be allowed to enter.
“Not just any cat or dog can enter my store!”
These words were too pertinent, and the disdainful look on his slightly raised head was also pertinent. Mo You had reason to suspect that this Jindan Qi was from a noble family or from the city lord's mansion.
After all, only the family members or people from the City Lord's Mansion know who the real culprits are who kidnapped the ancestors and the City Lord's Mansion...
Mo You smiled at this person, then turned his hand and took out a book.
"I'm here to play."
Mo You stood the book up so that the weapon refiner could clearly see the title written on the cover, and then casually opened a page to prove the authenticity of what she took out.
The weapon refiner was very disdainful at first. After seeing clearly the title of the book on the cover and the content of the page inside the book, the disdain on his face disappeared. He subconsciously reached out to take it, but Mo You directly
Dispersed!
The weapon refiner actually reacted the moment he stretched out his hand, knowing that he had gone too far, but he still couldn't hide the look on his face.
Those are the notes of the legendary master of weapon refining! How could he not be excited!
Fortunately, the weapon refiner still had some brains and knew that this matter should not be made public, so he suppressed the excitement in his heart, but couldn't hide his fiery gaze as he looked at Mo You.
"Okay, I'll make a bet with you!"
The weapon refiner turned sideways to let Mo You into the store, but Mo You just put the book away and asked him.
"What are you going to bet against me?"
The bet between weapon refiners has always been Ding vs. Ding Mao vs. Mao.
Mo You took out the master's notes, and her opponent would have to take out the same thing.
But those were the notes of the legendary weapon-refining master. If everyone had this thing, it wouldn't be so precious.
This weapon refiner obviously did not have such a background, but he was reluctant to part with such a good thing, so he gritted his teeth and said something very shameless.
"I am also the leading weapon refiner in this Copper Pillar City. I am willing to gamble with my notes!"
He said this to Mo You in a lowered voice.
As he said himself, he is also the leading weapon refiner in this Copper Pillar City. If others hear him using his notes to bet, it will easily attract the attention of others, and then he wants to swallow it privately.
The Master's Notes is not easy.
But Mo You didn't intend to follow his wishes.
She looked at the weapon refiner with a look that looked like a fool.
"What's the use of your notes?"
"you!"
The weapon refiner felt that he had been insulted. He thought that he was so arrogant and sought after by others, so he immediately wanted to refute Mo You and talk about his greatness!
But then I thought again, compared to the notes Mo You took out, my own notes really didn't seem to be that great.
Although he felt annoyed, he finally swallowed his breath and asked Mo You through gritted teeth.
"Then what did you say you wanted?"
Compared with that note, everything he offers is an advantage.
The weapon refiner has made up his mind now. If Mo You did this just to humiliate him, he will have his head removed today!
This weapon refiner knows how powerful Mo You is, but he also has his own support.
As one of the most powerful weapon refiners in Copper Pillar City, he has a lot of treasures. He thinks that if it were him, he would be able to deal with the attacks of the Jindan Stage and Nascent Soul Stage in the city, and even defeat them.
It's okay to kill them all.
So he never took Mo You seriously from the beginning, and he even felt that if he hadn't been delayed due to refining the weapon, he wouldn't have let his family lose such an adult, and let Tongzhu City lose such an adult!
The weapon refiner was already a little ready to make a move, but Mo You, instead of continuing to tease the weapon refiner's sensitive nerves, she readily quoted a price.
The weapon refiner was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then the look of disdain on his face became even stronger.
"Huh? Spiritual stone? You actually want a spiritual stone??"
For monks with special skills, spiritual stones are the easiest thing to obtain.
Just like Mo You, she makes elixirs for people. Apart from the spiritual stones and elixirs that everyone agrees she can withhold, the 'gifts' are the bulk of her income.
As for the things Mo You received, most of them were treasures of heaven and earth that were difficult to sell with spiritual stones on the market and were also difficult to obtain.
These things are truly valuable but not marketable, and they are things that can be regarded as heritage and passed down.
Alchemy masters are all like this, and weapon refiners are certainly no different.
Of course, using Mo You as an example to compare is a bit exaggerated. After all, Mo You turned alchemy refining into an assembly line operation by himself, and the number of elixirs produced every day was astronomical. Even if she only produced some low-level elixirs, she would get
The gift is also too generous.
Other alchemists can't compare, but the idea is the same. The bulk of the weapon refiner's usual gains are not spiritual stones, but gifts from them.
