Chapter 127 The changed snow lotus goes west
Perhaps the exchanges between human races in this era were not as rare as later generations imagined. At least in Qiuci, we actually encountered a few Yayan who can be said to be popular in the Central Plains.
A dialect similar to that of the Heluo area. Although the accents are very different, it is still possible to communicate.
However, I really couldn’t understand some terms. For example, when I started communicating with Li Xiao and said that he wanted to buy Snow Lotus, I didn’t understand what Snow Lotus was. However, when Li Xiao took out a printed picture, I immediately understood.
"Ah ha, Tagleris, yes, yes, dry Tagleris, and a pound of gold will be exchanged for a pound."
"Isn't this too expensive?"
"Friend, it's not expensive anymore. Tagleris is a gift from the gods, the king of herbs..."
"Let me see Taglaris first."
"No questions, no questions." Then the uncle named Ahriman muttered a few explanations to the other people. They nodded and went back. Soon there were many people carrying large bags of small loans.
came over.
There seemed to be quite a lot of them, and the bags contained dried snowdrops, but they didn’t use anything else to fool anyone. Of course, it was also because of the exquisite and lifelike snowdrop ‘portrait’ that Li Xiao could produce, so he took it for granted that Li Xiao
I know Snow Lotus very well.
Looking at more than a dozen bags of dried snow lotus, large and small, he closed his eyes slightly, and his spiritual perception unfolded, and he soon discovered a trace of spiritual power fluctuations from the dried snow lotus.
It's a pity that no real elixir has been found among these thousands of snow lotuses, and the intensity of the spiritual power fluctuations is only higher than some special wild chrysanthemums in the Changchun Valley.
Of course, although the spiritual power contained in these dried snow lotus is not very high, it still has quite good practical value. The price of one pound of gold for one pound of dried snow lotus is still acceptable in principle.
In fact, if we can wait until midsummer next year, collecting flowers directly to preserve the spiritual power content should be higher, and directly extracting the active ingredients will be more effective.
It’s just that I don’t know how long I can stay in this world, but if I can’t wait until that time and go back early, I won’t be able to make any money.
As for gold, I have acquired a lot of it one after another over the past year. The current reserve is 130 kilograms. However, the volume of dried snow lotus is dozens or hundreds of times larger than gold. There are more than a dozen bags of large and small. It seems that
I can’t let go...
"Friends, these tagleris are all first-class treasures. It is very troublesome to go up the mountain to collect them and dry them. One pound of gold is not expensive for one pound." The uncle from Qiuci Kingdom always said when he saw Li Xiao.
Without saying anything, he added another sentence.
"Well, how about I exchange my valuable white tiger skin for these dried snow lotus?" As he said this, he untied the big package, unfolded it, and took out a huge white tiger skin.
This thing is still a giant mutated tiger that I killed when I was wandering around in the Shiwan Mountains. The quality is very, very good. I originally kept it as a collection, but now that I have found something more valuable, of course I take it out and exchange it for something.
When a group of people saw the huge white tiger skin, they were indeed surprised, but they were only surprised for a moment. Obviously, to them, the tiger skin was not as valuable as Li Xiao imagined.
"Friend, although your leather is good, it is not worth a thousand pieces of gold. The leather here is not as valuable as yours, and it can only be exchanged for so many Taglaris at most." Ahriman pointed to the largest generation of bag dryers among them.
Xuelian explained.
Although the transaction may have been cheated by the other party, I didn't want to take the tiger skin back anyway, and it would be troublesome to take it back to the Central Plains in exchange for money.
"Okay...the remaining snow lotuses will all be traded with equal weight in gold." He hesitated slightly and directly agreed to the deal.
"Good friends, good friends, let's drink and eat meat together tonight to celebrate..." Seeing Li Xiao agreeing so readily, Ahriman excitedly patted Li Xiao on the shoulder and invited him to have dinner together.
"I still have many friends a few miles away. I have to rush back to meet them." Li Xiao found a reason to leave to avoid causing more trouble.
"Your friends are our friends. Let's drink and eat meat together..."
"We have the king's orders, we cannot delay, we must return to the Central Plains as soon as possible."
Seeing what Li Xiao said, Ahriman finally stopped keeping people. He felt that the profit from this transaction was indeed a bit too much, or he was considering the possibility of doing business next time. Therefore, when Li Xiao was about to leave, he deliberately gave him a gift.
I bought a camel and some roasted fat sheep...
Li Xiao was not too polite, took the goods and rode on the camel, and quickly left the city of Qiuci. However, he did not really take away the camel. Instead, he released the camel after unloading the goods. I believe it will not take long.
Go back by yourself.
Li Xiao did not waste too much time where he was, but quickly packed up his things. He originally planned to return to the Central Plains first, but after careful consideration, he finally chose to continue heading west.
I plan to go directly to Egypt and Greece. Anyway, at the speed of the ball, as long as there is enough food, there is no problem in traveling thousands of miles a day. Therefore, even if you are not familiar with the journey and there will be many detours, I believe it will take less than a month to reach Egypt.
If you're lucky, you might actually find something amazing. Even if you don't find anything big, you won't lose anything. You can also stop by Babylon, Greece, India and other places to see these famous ancient civilizations.
You'll find something quite valuable.
By the way, is the famous Sakyamuni still alive? Could he also be a very powerful Qi practitioner?
After thinking about this, I finally decided on my next itinerary. I patted Qiuqiu on the head, pointed to the west and said, "Let's go!"
He actually wanted to run back again. This behavior made Qiuqiu a little crazy, and he protested strongly. However, when Qiuqiu sprinkled the regenerative medicine with a strong life breath on the head of the nest, he immediately lost his temper.
"After running three hundred miles today before going to bed and practicing Qi, this nest of cornstarch is yours, otherwise I would eat it myself."
Qiuqiu didn't say anything about this, endured the drooling, and ran straight towards the west, as fast as a galloping cheetah, and as endurance as a camel.
He ran three hundred miles in one breath while carrying a man on his back, but this time he didn't even fall down from exhaustion. Apparently this guy's endurance has improved due to constant training, so he can increase the distance to 330 miles next time...
Seeing that Li Xiao hadn't taken out the Wowotou that had been sprinkled with the magic regeneration medicine, Qiuqiu also stood up and pushed Li Xiao's shoulder with his front paws to remind him.
"Well, first sit down with me and practice Qi. After practicing Qi, then eat super steamed buns."
Qiuqiu looked at Li Xiao very puzzled, as if asking why.
"Doing this will make you smarter and stronger." He took a golden elixir, took a sip of morning dew, took out the spiritual jade stone drum and sat down.
Seeing that Li Xiao was done, Qiuqiu had no choice but to imitate Li Xiao and sit down. Of course, Qiuqiu's short legs certainly couldn't sit cross-legged like humans, but the two hind legs' bear paws were touching each other.
Sit down, and then the bear paws of the forelimbs also touch each other.
This is a posture specially developed by Li Xiao after observing the meridians in the giant panda's body for a long time. It can form a special life field circuit and help activate the meridians in the body.
Maybe this is not the best posture, but it can be regarded as a method suitable for Qiuqiu exercise, which helps to produce sensory phenomena in Qiuqiu's very special meridians, thereby nurturing true energy.
In just one breath, he fell into silence. His spiritual perception instantly resonated with the spiritual jade stone drum, and instantly spread to a hundred or ten meters away. Although the intensity of Qi has been practiced for so long, it is not a rapid improvement, but the ability of this spiritual perception has.
It grows very fast.
At a high altitude, with the help of the jade stone drum, everything within a radius of 100 meters can be clearly seen, and even the divine sense can extend underground to four or five meters...
Qiuqiu sat motionless in order to eat the extremely delicious super steamed buns sprinkled with the magic regeneration medicine. Originally, he just felt very, very bored.
It's just that Li Xiao is practicing Qi with the help of the jade drum, and a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual power is being pulled nearby. When a very small part of it passes through Qiuqiu's body, a very small part of it will be absorbed by the gradually activated meridians in Qiuqiu's body.
intercepted.
However, as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is intercepted by the meridians, more and more energy naturally appears, which is the surging heat flow, which is the sense of Qi.
Although Qiuqiu didn't know how to guide it, Li Xiao certainly didn't know how to guide a bear either.
However, those surging heat flows will automatically find the conduction route, and conduct it little by little along the specific route. Over time, a very special energy cycle of Qi will naturally be formed.
More than half an hour later, Li Xiao had woken up from his trance, but Qiuqiu was completely in the zone.
Seeing Qiuqiu still sitting there, Li Xiao was filled with emotion. He didn't expect that just by giving it a try, Qiuqiu could actually be introduced to the path of Qi training.
Perhaps in a sense, this Qiuqiu can be regarded as one of his disciples. In fact, he spent much more thought on this foodie than on Chu Zhisheng.
…
Because Li Xiao has finished practicing Qi, the surrounding spiritual energy is no longer being drawn in continuously. There is no large amount of spiritual energy impacting Qiuqiu's body. Of course, the meridians in the body cannot intercept the spiritual energy, and the warm comfort gradually fades.
.
After a while, Qiuqiu finally finished its first real Qi training. This time, Qiuqiu was extremely excited after the Qi training. He was so excited that he even forgot to ask Li Xiao for the super wowotou, and instead hugged him excitedly.
Li Xiao tried to lick someone again, but he was stuffed into his head.
"Qiuqiu, you need to change your habit of licking people. If you are unfamiliar with it, you will frighten it."
Qiuqiu raised his head and gave Li Xiao a very arrogant look, as if to say: "Do you think I, Qiuqiu, lick people casually? What qualifications do other people have for me to lick Qiuqiu?"
