Chapter 152: Strange Stones Mixed in
"What idiot, that's my guest."
Nan Qi felt that her maid's words were too presumptuous: "I don't allow you to be so rude to my guests."
The maid Aduo grew up with Nanqi. The two are like sisters, and Aduo is not afraid of her at all.
He laughed jokingly and said, "It's not just me who says so. Even the young master and the others think so."
Nan Qi snorted coldly: "I'm not as talented as my brothers, but the magic weapons I refine are not bad. I can refine a magic weapon for the late stage of foundation building when I'm in the early stage of foundation building. Isn't this amazing?"
"It's a one-time thing though."
Ah Duo shook her head helplessly: "You also know it's a one-time use, Miss. In this Yunzhou Continent, which cultivator would really buy a one-time magic weapon to use, and fifty medium-grade spirit stones at that? It's just that they have too much money and don't know where to spend it. Most likely, the young master and his men sent someone to pretend to buy it to make you happy."
"Really?" Nan Qi thought it was possible. She pursed her lips and said, "But I don't think so. The monk even wanted to bargain and signed a contract with me."
"Signed the contract?"
A Duo immediately asked worriedly, "What kind of contract are you signing? Miss, you can't just sign a contract out there. That's not something you can joke about!"
"Don't worry. I'm just guaranteeing that the magic weapon I created has the power of the late stage of foundation building. After all, it's a one-time use, and people can't try it out. I must sign a contract to be assured..."
A Duo frowned. "That being said, isn't that how business works? If he doesn't think it's reliable, he doesn't have to buy it! Miss, don't sign contracts carelessly."
Nan Qi stuck out her tongue: "Okay, okay, I get it."
"Oh right." A Duo suddenly said, "Are those spiritual ores we got from the secret realm last time still there? The Xue Cang Sect sent someone to ask the young master and the others, and the young master asked if you still have one?"
"Yes." Nan Qi nodded. "I got a piece at that time, but I haven't researched anything yet. Does Xue Cang Sect want it?"
As she spoke, her spiritual consciousness entered the Qiankun bag and took a closer look.
Suddenly his expression changed drastically: "Oh no! I gave it to the wrong person!"
A Duo was also shocked: "Miss, what did you give me wrongly?"
Nan Qi used her spiritual sense to scan everything in the Qiankun bag and confirmed that the spiritual ore was missing.
Nan Qi suddenly looked disheartened. "Oh, when I sold the magic weapon to that cultivator this afternoon, I saw she paid all at once. I felt embarrassed to give her fifty mid-grade spirit stones, so I offered to give her a few spirit ores as a bonus. I only gave her ordinary first-grade spirit ores, but that one looked so similar to the ordinary ones that I think I mixed them up and gave them to her..."
"ah?!!!"
Ah Duo was about to scream: "Miss, how could you be so confused! That was something you took out from the Zhenze Secret Realm, and you gave it to someone else?!"
"Shhhhhhhhhh-"
Nan Qi felt guilty and immediately covered her mouth, "Don't be so loud that others may hear you."
A Duo was still jumping up and down: "Then we have to find a way to get it back?"
Nan Qi shook her head. "It's been a day, and the other party didn't come here to buy anything in person. I have no idea who they are. Besides, I haven't figured out the function of that spiritual ore, and I don't know how to open it. I'm too embarrassed to ask for it back, so I'll just tell Xue Cang Sect that I used it."
Ah Duo was so disappointed: "You are always confused about small things like this. Did you encounter the same problem when refining magic weapons? That's why you always go astray?"
Nan Qi: "Stop talking! If you continue to talk about my fragile self-esteem, I'm going to lose my temper!"
A Duo sighed: "Well, then I'll ask the young master to talk to the people of Xue Cang Sect."
Nan Qi looked at A Duo gratefully and said, "Then you go ahead. I'm going into seclusion. If anyone comes looking for me, just tell them I'm refining equipment and can't come out."
At this point, I can only hide for two days.

Song Jiulai bought some third and fourth level pills, and left a piece of top-grade spirit stone for the sect.
She was afraid that some players would need to redeem at a critical moment.
The other miscellaneous materials don't seem to be needed either.
Song Jiulai emptied the bag and cleaned the warehouse.
The sect warehouse can be used not only by Song Jiulai but also by players.
However, unless Song Jiulai allows it, players cannot see or use the things she puts there.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Songjiulai, which has a system shopping mall, does not use the warehouse temporarily.
This time she planned to hang up the few spiritual ores she had just received as a gift when she bought something.
The main reason is that although the spiritual ores given by the seller are all first-level, they are all relatively rare types within the first level.
Every point you can earn by putting it in the sect mall is a good one.
When one of the pieces was about to be put in, Song Jiulai suddenly said "hmm": "Why doesn't this look like a spiritual ore?"
The texture of the spiritual ore is very obvious.
Although the stone in front of him also exudes spiritual energy similar to that of the spiritual ore, its feeling is completely different from that of the spiritual ore.
Spiritual ores all look relatively transparent, but this stone is like solid white jade, and you can't see what's inside at all.
I could only vaguely see a black shadow wrapped in it.
"Indeed not."
The system scanned it and was a little surprised: "The energy source is quite high and pure, it's not a first-level thing."
Song Jiulai picked it up and examined it carefully. Even if he had a sea of consciousness, he could not penetrate the stone to see what was inside.
But with the naked eye, you can see that there is indeed a dark shadow inside.
This is a bit magical.
Song Jiulai asked the system: "What's inside?"
System: "It can't be scanned, but you can try to unlock it, but it's quite costly."
Song Jiulai pondered for a moment: "Then the seller gave me such a strange stone? Could it be that he sent me the wrong stone?"
System: "How could a monk be so careless? It's just a strange stone. Maybe he didn't even know what it was and just gave it to you."
Song Jiulai was persuaded.
After all, it’s unrealistic to ask people for help after buying things on the black market.
Song Jiulai raised it and looked at it for a while, then said, "I leave it to you."
Since the system says it can be solved, let the system do it.
System: "Then think carefully. This thing may turn out to be good or bad."
Song Jiulai has always liked to do this kind of gambling.
"Try it."
She could see the energy consumed by the system this time.
Her energy pool was full after the last replenishment, and even after continuing to consume it for a while, she still had more than 900 energy left.
Rich as hell.
As a result, the system consumed 500 points to unlock it, and the index instantly fell below 500.
Song Jiulai's face turned pale: "What on earth can consume so much of your energy at once?"
System: “…I don’t know.”
Using the data to calculate, the energy required to start dissolving is this amount.
But from a different perspective, something that takes so much energy to unlock must be very powerful.
Of course, whether it is good or bad is still unknown.
