Lord of Puluo

There were originally twelve cacti, but now there are thirteen. What they were waiting for has arrived.

Where is this extra cactus?

According to Li Banfeng's memory, it was between the fifth and sixth cactus.

Li Banfeng was about to use Tang Dao to attack, but Ma Wu signaled Li Banfeng to wait a moment.

Both men turned around at the same time, not looking at the cactus.

The cactus was currently devouring the snake-headed eel. It opened the bag and stabbed an eel with its spiked arms.

Then it used its other arm to cut a wound on itself and stuffed the eel into the wound.

This is how it eats, without making any sound.

Ma Wu is estimating the speed at which cactus eats fish.

The more you eat, the better, but you can’t wait until it’s all eaten, otherwise the cactus may escape, and something more terrible may happen.

There were more snake-headed eels this time, and Ma Wu wanted to wait a little longer. Li Banfeng's ears trembled, and he heard a voice using his ability to discern spiritual sounds: "There is more."

What else is there?

Li Banfeng turned around suddenly and found a cactus nearly two meters high standing in front of the two of them.

so close.

The horse has grown up, the cactus has finished the fish, and is ready to eat the next dish.

The name of this type of cactus is called thorn swallow. It usually hides under the yellow sand and rarely shows up.

The thorns are also very versatile in their eating habits. They eat all insects and snakes in the sand, but in this new land, there are only two kinds of food that can fish them out of the sand.

The first type is the snake-headed eel, which is the fish that Li Banfeng and Ma Wu caught from the lake. No matter it is alive or dead, Thornton likes it.

The second type of food is humans, who only eat living things.

Citun's fighting power is very strong. After it takes action, Li Banfeng and Ma Wu will probably die at the hands of this cactus.

But it has a fatal weakness: it cannot move when someone is watching it.

Therefore, Ma Wu and Li Banfeng had to turn their backs to the snake-headed eel on the ground at first to possibly lure it out of the ground.

The thorn swallows came silently, and were no different from other cacti. Their shape was extremely difficult to identify. Ma Wu could only confirm the appearance of the thorn swallows by counting.

Thornton also makes no sound when eating, and Ma Wu can only estimate the time based on experience.

This time, the estimate was not accurate because the cactus had too much appetite and quickly finished the fish. This was all due to Li Banfeng’s ability to discern spiritual sounds. If they had waited a little longer, Li Banfeng and Ma Wu would have eaten the fish. It might also become his meal.

Don't worry now, Ma Wu and Li Banfeng stared at the cactus together. As long as the two of them didn't blink at the same time, it would not move.

"When you come to this desert, you must have at least two people to avoid the attack of Citun." Ma Wu waved a short sword more than a foot long, jumped up and split the cactus.

Colorless, clear juice flowed out of the split cactus. In the juice, Ma Wu collected eight peanut-sized beads.

"This cactus has eaten a lot of people recently..." Ma Wu looked a little solemn. He brought a kettle and washed the mucus off the beads. Six beads turned dark red and two beads turned bright red.

Seeing the two bright red beads, Ma Wu smiled slightly.

He won the bet.

"Brother Li, you see, thorn swallowing beads means thorn swallowing undigested food. These six beads are all formed after eating people. There are resentful souls attached to the beads, and their quality is not good.

These two beads were formed by just eating fish. These fish have been dead for a long time. There are no resentful souls on the beads and they are of excellent quality.

One of these two beads can be sold for 300,000 yuan in Green Water Bay, which is more valuable than the six beads put together! "

This is why Ma Wu has to wait for the thorn to finish eating the snake-headed eel. If he takes one more bite, he may be able to produce one more pure bead.

Li Banfeng looked at the six dark red beads and asked, "Is there a resentful soul on each bead?"

He used his yin and yang eyes, but he didn't see the will-o'-the-wisp.

Ma Wu shook his head and said: "More than that, eating living people. Beads grow slowly. Three or five people may not be able to exchange for one bead. Looking at the color of this bead, it is estimated that there are five or six resentful souls attached to it. Such beads are of low quality. It can be sold for more than 2,000 yuan in the Song family, and if it is sold in Green Water City, it will be good for 30,000 yuan."

The more resentful souls there are, the lower the quality of the beads. But why can't these resentful souls be seen? Could it be that they are hidden too deeply?

Li Banfeng thought for a moment and said, "If we remove the resentful soul from the beads, wouldn't they become beads of high quality?"

Ma Wu smiled bitterly and said: "That will be difficult. People who are swallowed by thorns will be pierced by thousands of thorns before they die. The death is extremely painful, the soul loses its spirit, and there is great resentment.

If you want to get rid of the resentful souls, you must either use a magic weapon or ask a nightmare cultivator. There are not many such magic weapons, and the nightmare cultivator itself is also rare. If you want to drive away the resentful souls, it will take hundreds of thousands of people to do it. If you miss it, the beads will be broken, but It means losing all your money, so few people do it. "

Li Banfeng said: "Give me the beads first, I have a way."

"Do you have any idea?" Ma Wu was doubtful, but the purpose of doing this business was to repay the favor. Ma Wu did not hesitate to hand over all eight thorn swallowing beads to Li Banfeng.

"Brother Li, you have to take good care of it. You must not be discovered by the Song family on your way back. The Song family also often hunts for thorns, but they don't use snake-headed eels. They always use living people as bait to catch thorns. .”

"Using a living person as bait?" Li Banfeng was startled.

Ma Wu nodded: "In Lanyang Village, those who really can't survive will ask the Song family to sign a document and pay 20,000 yuan to pledge their lives and serve as bait for the Song family.

The Song family would tie the bait man tightly and throw him into the desert. Because Ji Tun was afraid of being watched, the bait man would also be blindfolded.

When the thorn swallow appears, if the Song family takes action in time, the bait man may be able to save a life. However, the Song family is mainly interested in the thorn swallow. They will only consider the best hunting time and will not consider the life and death of the bait man. Therefore, he becomes a trap. Bait people, narrow escape from death. "

Bait man.

Li Banfeng heard another new term.

New 𝐱.𝐜𝐨𝐦

"Brother Ma, why do you know that Citun likes to eat snake-headed eels?"

"We have learned classics passed down from our families. The Ma family has more books than any other major family in Puluo Prefecture. Some of the children of the Ma family love to study literature and some love to practice martial arts. You can find classics in the Ma family's library.

I also love reading, but I only read books that make money. It’s a pity that I will never go back to Ma’s house in my life. There are many good books in the library, and there are many ways to make money that I haven’t fully learned yet. "

Li Banfeng thought for a moment and said: "From the jade peach, to the tiger-headed louse, to the snake-headed eel, and then to the thorn-swallowing bead, a series of processes are all written in the same book?"

Ma Wu shook his head and said: "There is no process, and these things cannot appear in the same book.

There are hundreds of kinds of food that Tuyutao likes to eat, and smelly fish is the easiest to get, so people know this method.

There are hundreds of kinds of bugs on Tuyutao, but tiger head louse is one of them. Not many people know about it.

Snake-headed eels are extremely cunning and cannot be caught without corresponding bait. It is extremely dangerous to catch them in the lake. If they are caught, they can only be used for poison cultivation and cannot be sold at a high price, so few people are willing to catch them.

However, tiger head lice are one of the baits used to catch snake-headed eels. This kind of bait can only be found in the new land of Lanyang Village. Only a few people know about it.

The eating habits of the thorn-swallowing cactus are extremely complex. There are more than 60 kinds of baits recorded in the book, and the snake-headed eel is just one of them. In the new land of Lanyang Village, apart from living people, this is already the best bait to find.

I took apart all the books I had read before and crushed them into pieces in my mind. Then I went to the Song family's warehouse and squatted for several days to find out what was produced on this new land, and then I drew this line. . "

Li Banfeng said: "Then we will follow this process every day from now on, catch peaches, catch fish, and hunt and swallow thorns."

Ma Wu shook his head: "That won't work. If things go on like this, the Song family will definitely become suspicious. This clue is certainly valuable, but I know more than one clue."

Li Banfeng nodded frequently. This kind of person is destined to make money.

The two returned to Lanyang Village. In order to cover up others' eyes, Ma Wu still carried the bag of smelly fish.

Song Jiasen was taking a morning stroll in the village. When he saw Ma Wu, he smiled and said, "Fifth Young Master, throw away that bag of smelly fish. The smell is too strong and it looks like it's full of maggots."

Ma Wu sneered: "If Boss Song rewards me with a little more food money, I won't live in such a tight situation."

Song Jiasen looked surprised: "Why did the Fifth Young Master say this? Are you still holding grudges about Tao Zi? Song is helpless. This has been the rule of Lanyang Village for many years. You can't break the precedent just for the Fifth Young Master.

Otherwise, if the Fifth Young Master doesn't dislike it, he will come to the humble house to have dinner tonight. With Song's mouthful to eat, the Fifth Young Master will never be hungry. "

These few words are extremely sarcastic.

Ma Wu remained silent, and the two of them returned to the wooden house together. Ma Wu was catching up on his sleep downstairs, and Li Banfeng returned to his home.

Seeing Li Banfeng coming back, the record player whirred and sprayed out a cloud of steam, covering the entire main room: "Hey, sir, I can't survive this day, my little slave is going to starve to death."

Li Banfeng waved his hand to dispel the steam in front of his eyes, and took out a thorn bead: "Madam, see if the ingredients here are edible?"

"This thing... is really edible!" The record player's yin and yang eyes were obviously above Li Banfeng. He looked at it for a moment and said, "This is the Thorn Swallowing Pearl. I haven't seen this thing in some years."

"What is the use of this bead?"

"As an auxiliary material for refining magic weapons, the Thornton Pearl can lock the spirituality, and the lock is very tight. The purer the Thornton Pearl, the more suitable it is for refining the magic weapon, because it can lock a single spirituality without interference from other spirits.

There are eight dead souls in your bead. The quality of such a bead is impure, and the locked spirituality will be disturbed. If it cannot be sold at a good price, just give it to the slave. "

Li Banfeng sat next to the record player and discussed in a good voice: "Madam, it would be a pity to waste such a good pearl. Can you eat the dead soul and keep the pearl?"

Tsk~

Banglanglang~

The record player was very reluctant: "My husband is really greedy for money. He won't let my little slave eat as much as he wants. It's okay, little slave, give it a try."

Thorny Tunzhu can lock spirituality very tightly. This is not just a casual statement. Even my yin and yang eyes cannot see the whereabouts of these dead souls.

These dead souls have lost their souls and have merged with the beads. Although Xiaonu has a way to peel off the resentful souls, if the beads are broken, my husband should not blame Xiaonu. "

"No blame, no blame, Madam, just let it go, if it breaks, it's mine!"

As long as he can keep one bead, Li Banfeng will make a lot of money.

The record player rubbed steam on the beads for a moment, and a soul of the deceased was peeled off from the beads and sucked into the horn of the record player.

Despite what the lady said, it was not easy. In less than five minutes, one bead was disposed of, the dark red turned into bright red, and all the resentful souls were wiped away.

Seeing water droplets all over the mouth of the horn, Li Banfeng wiped it distressedly: "Thank you for your hard work, ma'am."

"Hey~ I don't think it's hard work. It's just that the dead soul is too resentful and a bit spicy."

Spicy…

"Do you like spicy food, madam? I still have some here!" Li Banfeng took out the remaining five beads.

The record player chuckled, and the steam it exhaled was slightly flushed: "Hey, sir, I know you cherish my little slave."

In less than half an hour, all the Thorn Swallowing Pearls were disposed of.

The lady burped and fell asleep.

Li Banfeng lay on the bed holding the fine thorn bead and fell asleep.

…

At night, Li Banfeng gave Ma Wu six high-quality thorn beads.

Ma Wu was surprised and couldn't figure out what method Li Banfeng used.

He didn't ask too many questions, because he knew that this method would not be easily revealed to others.

"Brother Ma, I'll leave the shipment to you."

Ma Wu nodded: "Brother Li, come with me to the entrance of the village. I'm afraid of being plotted against you."
