Chapter 9 Spirit Jade
"One hundred and fifty stone coins is fine, but let me choose a stone!"
Yang Junshan pointed at the three ores in front of him and said, this was his real goal.
"What?Impossible!" Li Laosan was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, suddenly exploding.
And he calmed down immediately. He looked around and said, "Kid, you want to do the stone gambling?"
Yang Junshan asked, "Why, is it impossible?"
Li Laosan sneered: "Sure, why not, but I got these three ores from three old pits in different mines. There will be treasures in these kinds of rocks, and the only difference is how much they are. One stone like this costs at least fifty stone coins, and I felt losing to give you this heart protecting mirror one hundred and fifty stone coins, and you wish to get another stone, don't even think about it."
An old pit in the mines? Yang Junshan sneered inside, 'If you could dig up ores from the mine, would you be in such dire straits?"
However, Yang Junshan didn't dare to show it on his face. He carefully asked, "Then, how about ten additional stone coins?"
Li Laosan stared at him and said, "You can take away with 190 stone coins!"
Yang Junshan felt around in his arms for a while, then he reluctantly took out a jade coin and sixty-nine stone coins, "Look, Here are all the jade coins and stone coins I have …"
At this time,Li Laosan he once again realized that the person in front of him was a child after all. No matter how old he appeared to be, how many stone coins could a eleven or twelve year-old child have on him?
To be honest, when Li Laosan saw Yang Junshan take out 169 stone coins, he was already quite surprised. How could he doubt if Yang Junshan still had any extra stone coins on him?
Li Laosan was starving for so many stone coins. For a Mortal Realm Grade cultivator like him, this one hundred stone coins was not a small income.
He impatiently swung his hand and said: "Alright, alright, it's yours, it's yours. Pick a rock and quickly leave with the Heart Protecting Mirror. Don't affect my business, I'm pretty pathetic today because of you!"
Yang Junshan kept the Heart Protecting Mirror immediately, however, he still lingered in front of the three ores for a while, until Li Laosan became more impatient, and then he hesitantly picked one and said: "Then this one!"
He saw that there were two groups of people stopping in front of his stall and looking at what he had placed there. He quickly said, "This is a ore that contains low-grade magic grade iron ore. If you can get thirty percent of it, you will earn a lot of money. Let's go quickly, I don't bully you."
30% Refined Iron? Even Li Laosan scoffed at this. It was already pretty good that this ore was able to refine 10% of the Refined Iron!
Seeing Li Laosan leaving hurriedly , which was rus.h.i.+ng towards his stall, Yang Junshan threw away the red rust-like ore in his hand and smiled proudly.
This Heart Protecting Mirror was a low-grade magic tool that had been mostly destroyed by magical formations. However, from the perspective of Yang Junshan from his previous incarnation, this Heart Protecting Mirror had been very useful from the moment it was made into a low-grade magic weapon. In other words, the refiner of this Heart Protecting Mirror did not have a high level of forging technique. He dropped a step down from a magical equipment that could have been refined into a lower grade.
The green-red steel, medium-grade magic spiritual materials, were excellent spirit materials for refining mid-grade protective magic tools.
After the Heart Protecting Mirror had been broken by a fist, and the fist was imprinted on the mirror's surface, the four finger marks on the surface of the mirror sparkled with a green-red light, making Yang Junshan certain that the mirror's original material must have melted this green-red steel.
In his previous incarnation, Yang Junshan had roamed around as a rogue cultivator after his family had been destroyed, but in order to save all the cultivation resources, rogue cultivators, even if they had a little bit of acc.u.mulated resources, could not find anyone to help, and could only choose to do more by themselves.
Even so, in his previous incarnation, Yang Junshan had stubbornly pushed his cultivation level all the way to the fourth level of the Martial Mortal Realm. If he was an existence that could control a small town, then his experience would naturally be incomparable to a rogue cultivator like Old Third, who had not even reached the Martial Mortal Realm.
Li Laosan didn't recognize this green and red steel beam, but Yang Junshan was sure that he hadn't misjudged it.
One hundred and fifty stone coins to buy this Heart Protecting Mirror. Even if this Heart Protecting Mirror was returned to the furnace, the amount of green and red steel refined from it would be worth at least five jade coins.
However, at this time, Yang Junshan naturally wouldn't covet the fusion of green and red steel. Even without the protection of a magical array, this Heart Protecting Mirror could block the attack of a Hundred Refined Weapon just by its own smelting of green and red steel.
Moreover, from Yang Junshan's point of view, some of the array glyphs on the surface of the Heart Protecting Mirror could be used again!
This could also be said to be the ultimate proof of how poor rogue cultivators were. In order to use all the resources at hand to the best of their ability, even broken magic tools and spirit artifacts had to be used to the best of their ability.
Although more than half of the array glyphs on this Heart Protecting Mirror had been damaged, the remaining few glyphs could still be easily connected. Although they could not achieve the power of a magic tool, they could at least enhance the Heart Protecting Mirror's defensive capabilities.
The Heart Protecting Mirror alone was worth the one hundred and sixty-nine stone coins that Yang Junshan had spent, not to mention he still had a piece of ore in his hand.
Previously, Yang Junshan seemed to be hesitating between the three ores, but in reality, his goal was the rusted red stone in his hands, and even the Heart Protecting Mirror was only his cover tool.
In the cultivation world, there were some cultivation resources such as iron and stone that were hidden in the stone, or even simply dissolved in the stone, so even the most skilled cultivators would find it extremely difficult to determine whether there was something they needed from the sacred art or could barely determine its content. Thus, in the cultivation world, the stone gambling method was born.
This was naturally the uncertainty surrounding the stone gambling. However, if one were to determine whether or how many ores there were, then this stone gambling would naturally be meaningless. Therefore, any ore that was able to make a conclusion and was well-known would naturally be unable to be used as a bet.
The Red Rusty Rocks was precisely this type of ore that could determine what kind of cultivation resources it was. However, the knowledge regarding the Rustling Red Rusty Rocks had been widely disseminated for more than a decade already.
The descendants of the Prominent Cla.s.s, who had been dealing in ores for generations, discovered that this kind of ore was wrapped in a layer of iron ore, and there would often be a faint red rust on it. If one didn't look carefully, they would even ignore this rust-red ore, and such a ore would definitely contain a small piece of Spiritual Jade!
That's right, it was spiritual jade, the raw material used to make jade coins. It was also a treasure that cultivators could directly use to aid in their cultivation.
After the Prominent Cla.s.s disciple in his previous incarnation discovered this secret, he quickly reported it to the family. The family saw it as an opportunity to rise and quickly tried to secretly collect a large amount of Red Rusty Rocks, but there were very few Red Rusty Rocks.
After three years, when this secret was finally discovered, it was spread widely. The unnoticed Red Rusty Rocks was immediately controlled by all sorts of forces, and was rarely seen in the market.
Even so, after three years of secret acc.u.mulation, the family that first discovered the secret of the Rust Stone had given birth to a human expert in a short span of thirty years, causing the family to rise from a remote town to a wealthy family in one county.
Later on, Yang Junshan had a close relations.h.i.+p with the children of this family. The latter told him that if it wasn't for the fact that the Rustling Red Rusty Rocks itself was extremely rare, and that his family had secretly acc.u.mulated for three years, it would at least be able to cause one or two Mortal Realm cultivators to appear in this family. It was even possible for them to become a famous family in a county.
In reality, the Red Rusty Rocks was not only rare, but its size was also small. The largest piece of spirit jade found in his previous incarnation was only able to cut up into thirty jade coins, and even a thin piece of jade that was only the size of a thumb was often found in the Red Rusty Rocks.
However, regardless of the size of the spirit jade that was wrapped within the Red Rusty Rocks, one thing was certain, which was that the spirit jade definitely existed within the Red Rusty Rocks.
Weighing the ore in his hand, Yang Junshan thought to himself that this was a shortcut to becoming rich, but there weren't many Red Rusty Rocks at all, so it would be less to be found in Huangtu Town. Furthermore, with Yang Junshan's current age, it was obvious that he had attracted a lot of attention to gambling with the stones in the middle of the market.
The most important thing was that with his current cultivation, he was unable to disa.s.semble the Red Rusty Rocks, so naturally, he could not get the spirit jade inside. Without the spirit jade, he could not cut the jade coins, so how could Yang Junshan collect the Red Rusty Rocks secretly?
It seemed that if he wanted to acc.u.mulate wealth in advance, he would still need to borrow his father's strength. With his cultivation of a Warrior Realm grade, he naturally wouldn't be suspected by others if he took the stone gambling as an interest.
Yang Junshan seemed to have thought of something, his expression turned serious, not to mention, in order to withstand the disaster that would sweep through the entire Yu County in a few years, he had to do everything in his power to help Yang Tiangang improve his cultivation to avoid family broken up.
