Chapter 4037 Burning Fire Treasure Box
This old man is sure of them, so he is confident.
Elder Chao Jing nodded, and Qin Cheng also directly spent four million spirit stones to buy a trial qualification for Mingzhou people.
Anyway, if one person succeeds, everyone in Mingzhou can leave, so it doesn't matter whose qualification it is.
Seeing a large number of spiritual stones being collected continuously, the old man's smile became brighter and brighter, and his eyes were almost on fire.
Seeing the other party like this, Qin Cheng felt that this matter was not simple.
After everyone present had collected their money, the old man coughed lightly.
"Now that I've finished talking about the rules, in order to ensure that this matter is fair and to prove that I didn't cheat and only relied on chance, I have to show you something."
As he spoke, the old man turned his palm over, and a box the size of a head appeared on his palm.
This square box is red in color and looks like it is made of metal. It is integrated with only one side open, revealing the empty interior.
"This is the fire treasure box."
Among the monks, someone exclaimed.
"Yes, there are indeed people who know the goods." The old man said with a slight smile.
"The characteristic of this fire treasure box is that once it is closed, it can no longer be opened at will. Once the monk opens it, the treasure box will burn instantly and turn into ashes."
"In other words, no one can open or replace the items placed inside."
After the old man finished speaking, he took out a jade slip.
"I have written the names of my favorite delicacies inside this. You can also pull out a breath and put it into it. Then I will put this jade slip into the treasure box and close it."
"In this way, no one can change what I like, and you don't need to worry about me regretting it." The old man smiled.
"You may be able to guess my identity to some extent. I am Xingzun's former follower. If I lie, Xingzun will not be blamed."
After hearing this, the practitioners' hearts changed again and they felt a lot more at ease.
Originally, the old man didn't give any useful information, so many people felt that it was a bit unreliable, and buying the qualification was just a try.
But with this treasure box, everyone felt a little more stable.
After all, the contents of the Burning Fire Box cannot be replaced, and the old man swore in the name of the Star Lord, so this really became a test of chance.
"Senior brother, it's done."
The old man had just finished explaining. At this time, Zheng Ling hurried back from a distance and whispered to Qin Cheng.
"What have you been doing?"
Elder Jing was stunned. He had been paying attention to the old man before and didn't notice when Zheng Ling left.
"I just followed my senior brother's instructions and bought all the inns nearby!" Zheng Ling said proudly.
After being reminded by Zheng Ling, Elder Jing looked back and discovered that there were five or six restaurants and inns diagonally behind the city lord's palace and on the streets next to it.
The location of those inns is very close to the city lord's palace. Even from the row behind, you can see the situation here through the rear windows of the second and third floors.
It would be great to rent a place nearby, but these inns must accommodate hundreds of people. There are only twenty of them in total. Why would Qin Cheng buy them all?
When Elder Jing was stunned, maybe Zheng Ling spoke a little louder, or maybe it was too quiet now.
His words fell into the ears of everyone, and the crowd fell silent for a moment.
Then, pairs of eyes widened and looked at Qin Cheng and Zheng Ling, full of strange expressions.
What a hell!
What kind of brain does this guy have? Why don't they have this?
When everyone was surprised by the old man and the rules, Qin Cheng actually took a step ahead and occupied all the good positions nearby!
Apart from anything else, let’s just leave a place to live here. You don’t need to go far to observe this place. This saves a lot of time and avoids some possible troubles.
Besides, if the inns at the back have windows, you can observe the situation through the windows, which means you have everything under control, and you don't even have to go downstairs.
This horse riding is definitely a good place to save time and avoid accidents!
"Fellow Taoist, sell some of the second-floor seats to our Jiao Clan, and you'll pay the price."
The Jiao clan prince reacted and immediately looked at Qin Cheng and said.
"It's easy to say, I want to keep the second floor for myself and not sell it. For the third floor, each room will be worth one hundred thousand spiritual stones for five days." Qin Cheng said.
Upon hearing the price, everyone gasped.
So cruel.
Qincheng has caught up with the old man's greed.
"One hundred thousand spiritual stones? Why don't you go and grab them! These rooms only cost one thousand spiritual stones a day. Do you think we haven't bought them?" A monk from the Jiao tribe frowned instantly.
"Haha, then go and buy the one thousand spirit stones. Let's go."
Qin Cheng was too lazy to pay attention to this person and turned around to leave.
"Wait a minute, here are five hundred thousand spiritual stones, and I bought five rooms."
The Jiao clan prince raised his eyebrows and threw a storage bag to Qin Cheng.
"Fellow Taoist, please walk slowly. How many ordinary rooms are there? I want to buy one."
"How can I buy the second floor on the east side, which is in a slightly worse location?"
After the prince of the Jiao clan, monks started to ask Qincheng for prices.
Qin Cheng responded one by one with a smile on his face.
Of course, the prices are ridiculously high, which makes everyone feel a little bit pained.
However, all the inn locations nearby have been bought by Qin Cheng. If they want to stay here, they will have to spend this spiritual stone.
Under the dumbfounded gazes of Elder Jing and others, in the blink of an eye, Qin Cheng took the room tokens one by one and earned back two million spiritual stones.
Equivalent to the amount of spiritual stones given to the old man before, Qin Cheng only changed hands and got back half of the money.
Seeing this, the old man who called himself Ye Ye felt jealous.
"You brat, should I share half of the spiritual stones you earned?" The old man walked over with his hands behind his back and frowned.
"Senior, as long as you tell me what the answer is, I can give you ten times more." Qin Cheng said with a smile.
"Humph." The old man narrowed his eyes and turned away.
This bastard actually used me to make money.
But just wait, I will be able to earn back the spiritual stones from you sooner or later.
The sun was now three poles high, and there was still some time before noon, so after the old man left, the cultivators also left one after another.
Qin Cheng was also about to leave, but at this moment the prince of the Jiao clan looked over with deep meaning.
"Fellow Taoists, I can tell that you are monks from Mingzhou, but I really can't guess when such a shrewd and talented monk came out of Mingzhou."
"Perhaps, you and I have met before." Qin Cheng said with a slight smile.
"Really? Then I'm very curious about your appearance in hiding."
The prince of the Jiao clan took a deep look at Qin Cheng, and then left with everyone in the Jiao clan.
"Nephew Qiu, let's go search for him too?" Elder Jing said.
"You go ahead, I have other things to do, so I won't participate."
Qin Cheng waved his hand and then walked towards the inn.
"Okay, everyone, let's go look around and focus on collecting how many kinds of food there are."
Elder Jing gave instructions to the cultivators.
