Mortal Immortal Gourd

Chapter 208 Thank you ancestors

When Zhu'er was heartbroken and taken away by her elder sister, Er Gouzi was still on his way back.

He used the secret technique of spiritual transformation to transform himself into a bear man covered with black hair.

The reason why he loved this image was that this shape was similar to humans, without those strange tails and wings.

He casually named himself Xiong Er in the image of this bear man.

Anyway, he was originally ranked second and called Er Gouzi, so it was also appropriate to change it to Xiong Er now.

He came back as Xiong Er and met many monsters.

When he encountered a monster city along the way, he would go in to take a look. Anyway, since he was here, he had to bring some local specialties back.

Some minerals and spiritual medicines produced in abundance in the Wan Yao Kingdom happened to be scarce in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The control of alchemy here is not so strict, but the talents of these monsters are not very good at alchemy.

Moreover, their physiques are quite special, and they can directly swallow some spiritual medicines with overbearing medicinal properties without fear of side effects.

As a result, alchemists are scarce, and elixirs are even more expensive in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters.

Er Gouzi, in the identity of Xiong Er, is not afraid of being traced, and sells elixirs in large quantities.

He exchanges elixirs for spirit stones and then buys various materials.

A few days ago, when he passed by a city, he went into the city to sell some elixirs.

But he heard a piece of news unexpectedly.

In this city, the city lord's mansion is controlled by a bull-headed family that has been passed down for a thousand years.

This family is good at growing various spiritual medicines.

It is said that several earth spirit grasses are cultivated in the family.

Earth spirit grass is one of the five main medicines for refining foundation-building pills.

Knowing that the city lord's family has this kind of spiritual medicine, Er Gouzi was tempted, and he went to the door to buy it in the identity of Xiong Er.

But the bull-headed city lord kept the earth spirit grass very tightly, and refused to sell it, and was unwilling to reveal any news whether it had it or not.

Er Gouzi was thinking about the earth spirit grass in his heart, and he was unwilling to leave, and he was so anxious that he wanted to chop off his hands.

He already had Fire Spirit Grass and Wood Spirit Grass in his hands. Now he only needed three more to make up the five main medicines to refine the foundation-building pill.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the foundation-building pill needed to be registered. If you built the foundation machine without the foundation-building pill, you would be considered an evil cultivator and would be killed.

But he had so many people under him, so many geese, and Yushan. If he wanted to train them to be strong, he would have to have the foundation-building pill.

Now, if the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty wanted to get a foundation-building pill, they had to make great contributions.

Even Ji Ge, who was a prince, asked him for a thousand foundation-building pills, but he was stingy and only got one in the end.

These geese and Yushan that he fed were not even considered people. How could they get the foundation-building pill through formal channels?

If he wanted them to go further in the future, he would have to refine the foundation-building pill himself.

Er Gouzi thought for a long time and decided to go back to his old job and take a look inside the City Lord's Mansion.

He would come back after taking a look.

After he had chosen the right spot, he put on a black cloak and sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion one night.

However, he went around the City Lord's Mansion several times and did not find any information related to the Earth Spirit Grass.

Now he didn't even know where the Earth Spirit Grass was planted, let alone digging it himself.

Er Gouzi was not discouraged. He simply hid in the City Lord's Mansion these days, hiding in the gourd to sleep and practice during the day, and came out to move at night.

After a few days, he found that this bull-headed family respected their ancestors.

There was an ancestral hall behind the City Lord's Mansion, and there stood a very tall bull-headed statue in the ancestral hall, which was the ancestor of this family.

The Bull-headed City Lord would prepare some fruits, tea, etc. every now and then, and put them in front of the ancestral statue for sacrifice.

On this day, Er Gouzi hid in the ancestral hall and took a nap. When he came out of the gourd, he saw a few fresh spiritual fruits on the altar.

He casually put the spiritual fruit into the gourd and ate one. It tasted good.

He was wearing a black cloak and was about to walk out of the ancestral hall.

He saw the Bullhead City Lord, who was carrying a fresh spiritual fruit in.

The City Lord took a look at the offering table and found that all the spiritual fruits on it were gone.

"Huh?"

He had issued a strict order long ago that no one was allowed to touch the spiritual fruits on the offering table.

The last person who stole the offerings had his legs broken by him, so no one should be stealing now.

Why did these spiritual fruits suddenly disappear? Could it be that the ancestors appeared?

When the City Lord thought of this, his heartbeat quickened a bit. He walked to the offering table and carefully placed the fresh offerings in his hand.

Then he kowtowed to the ancestral statue several times.

"Ancestor, is it you who appeared?"

"I am an unfilial descendant of Niu Geng. I beg the ancestors to give me a Xuanyuan Pill to help me improve my cultivation!"

The Bull City Lord made a wish to the ancestral statue, kowtowed several times, and then left.

After leaving, close the door and strictly prohibit anyone from entering the ancestral hall.

Er Gouzi saw clearly and heard every word of the scene where City Lord Niu kowtowed to his ancestors and made a wish.

I didn't expect this kid to be so ambitious. He wanted a precious Xuanyuan Pill after eating a few spiritual fruits from you.

After City Lord Niu left, Er Gouzi put the fresh spiritual fruits on the altar back into the gourd.

Just as he was about to go out to continue to inquire, he suddenly thought of a question.

Instead of going around to find the location of the earth spirit grass, it is better to sit here and wait for City Lord Niu to deliver it himself.

After delivering it, the other party has to kowtow to him.

After making up his mind, he hid in this ancestral hall and simply didn't go out.

Let the dust from the gourd hide on the ancestral statue, and prepare to go fishing.

After offering the offerings, Lord Niu came in to check the next day, and sure enough, the spiritual fruits disappeared again.

The offering table was empty, with nothing on it.

Although he hadn't seen the Xuanyuan Pill he had requested for his wish, he didn't have much hope.

It was unrealistic to exchange a few spiritual fruits for a precious Xuanyuan Pill.

On this day, he offered another batch of offerings, kowtowed a few times, continued to make a wish, and then left.

After a day, he came to check again excitedly.

This time he found that there were still a few spiritual fruits left on the offering table.

He picked up the spiritual fruit and looked at it, and suddenly found that it was not the spiritual fruit he offered yesterday, but should be from two days ago.

Moreover, this spiritual fruit was eaten by the ancestor before, and now it is put here again, and the spiritual energy has been greatly improved.

After this discovery, City Lord Niu's heart was beating wildly.

The ancestor really showed his spirit.

"Thank you for the gift of the ancestor!"

City Lord Niu kowtowed to the statue repeatedly. He was so excited that he even broke his head, but he didn't notice it.

After that, City Lord Niu would offer a batch of offerings to the ancestor every day.

Gradually, he found a pattern. After the ancestor ate his offerings, he would return half of the offerings to him three days later.

But the quality of the returned half of the offerings was greatly improved, and the total value far exceeded the offerings he had offered before.

So he made a profit.

"Hahaha..."

City Lord Niu was in a very good mood during this period. Since the ancestor showed his spirit, he saw the hope of becoming a peerless master in the future.

The ancestor's spirit in the ancestral hall became a huge secret that he kept in his heart and was unwilling to reveal even if he was beaten to death.

Keeping this secret, he not only has the hope of breaking through to the Jindan realm, but also a high possibility of a higher realm.

Once the secret is leaked, it is possible that the ancestor will no longer be his ancestor, and naturally more masters will come to rush to claim him as their ancestor.

Now he is no longer satisfied with just getting a few spiritual fruits to offer to his ancestors.

Instead, he takes out all the precious items he has collected and offers them to his ancestors.

The more he invests, the greater the harvest.

He offers two ordinary spiritual medicines, and in three days he can get a spiritual medicine with stronger medicinal properties.

If he offers ten at a time, he can get five in three days, and the spiritual medicine with a large increase in spiritual power.

Now he can't wait to move the entire city to the altar and give it to his ancestors.

Under the huge temptation, the items offered by Lord Niu City each time are getting more and more rare.

Sometimes he even suddenly thinks, can he offer himself to his ancestors, and then leave half of himself who is more powerful.

On this day, he piled a large number of rare items on the altar.

Among them are two earth spirit grasses that are not old enough. As long as they are improved once by the gourd, the age is enough.

He prepared double portions of all the rare items on the altar, so that the ancestors could eat one and he could have one for himself.

After he placed the items, he kowtowed to the statue several times as usual.

"Thank you for the gift of the ancestors!"

After kowtowed, he left with expectation in his heart.

Three days later, the bull-headed man walked into the ancestral hall, but found that the altar was empty and there was nothing on it.

Could it be that the ancestors were too busy and forgot?

The Lord of Niu City was a little confused and a little uneasy, so he could only kowtow to the ancestors and leave.

The next day, the third day, the fourth day...

He came to check every day, and the altar was still empty, with nothing on it.

"Ancestor, you can't cheat your descendants!"

Then he offered some other items. Strangely, after these items were placed for two or three days, the ancestors didn't eat them.

Did the ancestors doze off?

The Lord of Niu City could only comfort himself in this way, and then come to check every day.

But his ancestor never showed his spirit again...

At the same time, Er Gouzi, after days of traveling, was almost at the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

This time, he harvested a lot of spiritual objects and two earth spirit grasses.

Now he has three of the five main ingredients for refining the foundation-building pill.

As long as he can find a way to get the remaining two main ingredients, he can refine a lot of foundation-building pills.

After being the ancestor in the house of Lord Niu this time, he found that cheating is indeed more promising than stealing.

When you are a thief, you can only sneak around and be as nervous as a mouse.

Every time you steal something, the owner will curse you behind your back without saying thank you.

Cheating is different.

Every day, Lord Niu brings all kinds of rare items to him, and he has to kowtow to him and say thank you to his ancestors with a pious and respectful attitude.

As for the risk of being discovered, his spiritual consciousness is now almost the same as that of the early stage of the golden elixir.

As long as the spiritual consciousness is not stronger than his, he will not be able to discover his invisibility and disguise, as well as his spiritual consciousness.

Several times, the Niu City Lord hid outside the ancestral hall and tried to peek at his ancestors eating, but he found them with a single sweep of his spiritual sense.

Er Gouzi whistled and walked with an unusually relaxed pace.

Seeing the border wall of the Great Zhou Dynasty in sight, he decided to bypass General Xiong's camp.

He stole a lot of things from General Xiong's warehouse and was slapped by him, breaking many bones.

Now he revisited the old place, feeling a little guilty.

Only when he got closer did he realize that there was no demon in the camp.

All the people coming in and out of the camp were human soldiers.

Ergouzi was confused for a moment and could only hide nearby and observe secretly.

At this moment, he saw Yang Tie walking out of the camp with a small group of troops.

"Brother Yang!"

"Er Gouzi? You're not dead?"

Yang Tie was obviously frightened when he saw Ergouzi suddenly jump out from the roadside.

At that time, he almost used his flying sword to strike at Ergouzi.

Fortunately, he was also a mature and prudent person, so he resisted this impulse.
