My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 574 White Jade

The weather was getting colder day by day, and the golden pearl clams entered their dormant period. Most of the disciples who raised clams and collected pearls stayed in their caves and did not show up. Even the clouds and mist on the Yunze Lake lay lazily on the Yunze Lake without moving.

On this day, in Chen Mu's cave residence in the south of Chongmei Mountain, a square low table was placed in front of the huge jade window.

Chen Mu, dressed in loose grey clothes, sat on a bamboo chair with his hands on the surface of the Five Qi Hunyuan Furnace.

There was a constant rumbling sound like thunder in the stove. Five little paper figures hid behind Chen Mu, popping out from his shoulders from time to time and looking around curiously.

After more than half a year of seclusion and cultivation, Chen Mu's body was almost bare of white jade. He planned to refine water-repellent beads to make money.

For him, it is actually easier to refine pills such as the Bigu Pill and the Yuan-penetrating Pill. However, few people in the Yunchong Lower House can refine pills. If he sells them in large quantities, it may cause trouble.

The Water-Repellent Beads were different. Many disciples of the Yunchong Lower House made their living from the Water-Repellent Beads derivative business. When the time came, he only needed to go to the Bailian Hall to sell them under the identity of Li Moliang, and there would be no flaws.

"One abridged version of the Water Repellent Bead costs eighty white jades, and the complete version can be sold for three hundred. If you practice making a hundred or eighty of them... Hey!"

As the thought flashed through his mind, Chen Mu's consciousness sank into the Hunyuan Furnace, and he dared not to be negligent anymore.

While he used the Wind and Fire Cardinal Spell to control the intensity of the thunder and lightning in the furnace, he also used the Five Qi Mixed Origin Method to continuously stimulate the Fixed Wave Talisman.

Inside the alchemy furnace, three balls of liquid, white, gold and red, floated in the air. Under the pull of the fixed wave talisman, they were separated into thick and thin threads, which were piled up and woven bit by bit according to the special structure.

As time passed, a milky white liquid bead with red lines slowly took shape.

Become!

Chen Mu was delighted.

The next moment.

  hum!

The entire bead shook, and a repulsive force suddenly erupted.

  boom!

The lid of the Hunyuan Furnace was lifted up by the strong energy and embedded into the rock ceiling above with a clang.

  Another furnace explosion?

Chen Mu's face froze, and he looked inside the Hunyuan furnace. Then he found a black round bead lying at the bottom of the furnace.

"Failed." Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh and shook his head. This was the third water-repellent bead he had exploded.

With a thought, a gray wall appeared before my eyes.

Weapon Refining Technique (Water-Repellent Bead): 5032/10000;

"It's still a little bit off after all."

With his current experience, it is not difficult to refine the abridged version of the water-repellent beads, but it is not easy to refine the complete version.

"The abridged version of the water-repellent beads costs thirty-five white jades just for the materials. Even if it is 100% successful, you can only make thirty or forty white jades from each bead."

"If you want to accumulate a sum of white jade quickly, you still have to rely on the Red-Eyed Ghost-Patterned Beads!" Chen Mu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

The material of the Red Eye Ghost Pattern Bead only requires one Dingbo clam bead, and the cost is only seven or eight white jades. He can earn more than seventy white jades by refining one of the water-repellent beads that he pretends to have deleted.

Moreover, Chen Mu's Tongyou Curse has reached a high level, and he has sufficient experience in attracting the Red-Eyed Ghost Pattern, so his success rate is almost 100%.

And if you are lucky, you can refine two red-eyed ghost-patterned beads in one day, which is far more efficient than regular water-repellent beads.

"That's it!" Chen Mu nodded vigorously.

  As for counterfeiting and selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton?

"The Red Eyed Demon Pattern Pearl also has the ability to avoid water. If it can avoid water, then it is a water-repellent pearl!"

……

More than ten days later, Li Moliang arrived at the cave.

"You are a Dragon Locker, where do you get so many white jades?" Chen Mu asked in surprise, looking at the box on the table in front of him.

He appeared in front of Li Moliang again in order to borrow his identity to sell the Red-Eyed Ghost-Patterned Beads at Bailian Hall. However, he never expected that the other party would directly give him a box of white jade.

One glance at the box tells you that there are at least two thousand pieces of white jade in it.

"It is precisely because I am a dragon locker that I can save so much white jade." Li Moliang explained with a smile: "I have been lurking in the lower courtyard of Yunchong for nine years, raising golden pearl clams for three years, and practicing red-eyed ghost pattern beads for six years. I am not a Qi Refiner, I have money but nowhere to spend it, so I saved these white jades."

"It's useless to keep this thing with me, so I might as well give it to you, sir." He pushed the box to Chen Mu with a respectful look on his face.

"No requirements at all?" Chen Mu didn't believe it.

"It is my honor to help you, sir. I ask for nothing else." Li Moliang said righteously.

"You don't even want the Jade Dew Pearl?" Chen Mu smiled.

"Well...if the gentleman has anything to give me, then of course I can't refuse it." Li Moliang immediately put on a flattering smile.

  Ah!

Li Moliang is a dragon locker, with a ghost living in his body. Because he is far away from Daqian and does not have enough incense and vitality to nourish him, his body is seriously damaged.

Although Li Moliang still looked skinny at this moment, his eyes were exceptionally clear and bright, indicating that his internal vitality had been replenished. This was exactly the effect of the Jade Dew Pearl.

Half a year ago, in order to let Li Moliang tell Yuan Xian that he had left Chongmei Mountain, Chen Mu specially gave him a lot of jade dew beads. It was these jade dew beads that allowed Li Moliang to strengthen his body. After experiencing the benefits, Li Moliang naturally craved for more jade dew beads, so he happily gave him the white jade he had accumulated for many years.

"Don't worry, as long as you stay in Chongmei Mountain for one more day, your Jade Dew Pearls will be missing." Chen Mu waved his hand, put away the wooden box and spoke.

The strange monster disappeared. Yuan Xian has probably noticed something unusual and will probably let Yunze Lake go for the time being.

Chen Mu's subsequent focus is no longer on catching strange monsters, but on lurking in Eyang Road, which requires him to replace Li Moliang's identity.

Since he used someone else's identity, he naturally had to give some compensation, not to mention that the other party gave him such a large amount of white jade.

"Thank you, sir!" Li Moliang was overjoyed.

"It's just mutual benefit." Chen Mu waved his hand indifferently.

"I still have some gold sand jade powder here, I'm sure it will be useful to you, sir." Li Moliang stood up again and took out a large wooden box from the square cabinet under the shelf on the wall.

After the box was opened, jade bottles of various sizes came into Chen Mu's sight.

"To refine water-repellent beads, you can't just spend without taking in. In order to cover up the Red-Eyed Ghost Patterned Beads over the years, I bought a lot of gold sand and jade powder for refining water-repellent beads." Li Moliang explained with a smile: "Sir, you are a Qi Refiner and can refine orthodox water-repellent beads. These materials are just right for you."

  Is there such a good thing?

Chen Mu couldn't help but smile.

He originally just wanted to sell the Red Eyed Demon Pattern Bead under the identity of Li Moliang, but he didn't expect to get 2,000 white jades before the beads were sold. With this pile of refining materials, his white jade crisis was solved by 70% to 80%.

……

The next day, the weather became colder, and dark clouds covered Yunze Lake. Snowflakes began to fall on Yunze Lake early in the morning.

On the east side of Mount Chongmei, the cave that had been sealed for half a year was used again by Chen Mu. In front of the huge jade viewing window, a square dining table was placed in the middle.

The Five Qi Hun Yuan Furnace is embedded in the center of the table, with the milky white soup bubbling inside.

A crystal-like transparent fish as long as a forearm floated in the air. Chen Mu pointed his finger, and the green Sanyin Demon-killing Blade turned into a knife net and flew out. The crystal fish was immediately cut into thin slices and flew into the Hunyuan furnace in a line. After just one roll in the boiling water, the transparent fish meat suddenly turned golden yellow, which looked extremely tempting.

Chen Mu immediately picked up a piece and put it into his mouth. The delicious and tender taste coupled with the tempting aroma made him dizzy while eating.

As the smooth fish meat goes down your stomach, your whole body starts to feel slightly warm, and a feeling of ecstasy and comfort suddenly comes over you.

"The Feixian fish is indeed as good as its name. It tastes like heaven when eaten. It is worthy of being one of the eight delicacies of Yunze Lake." Chen Mu sighed and immediately picked up his chopsticks and put pieces of fish meat into his mouth one after another. Before long, he had eaten the whole Feixian fish.

Yesterday, I went to Bailian Hall and sold five red-eyed ghost beads for 400 white jade coins. With Li Moliang's savings over the years, the white jade crisis was temporarily resolved.

In his joy, Chen Mu became interested in boating on the lake, so he rented a black-sailed boat and drifted into the depths of Yunze Lake. Unexpectedly, he discovered the flying fairy fish using the Di Xuan method.

"It's a pity that this thing is too rare. It may not be easy to catch another one." Chen Mu recalled and shook his head regretfully.

After dinner, in front of the jade window.

Chen Mu held a cup of Huiyuan soup with black plum juice flavor, lay in the rocking chair in front of the jade window, and pondered his future practice.

"It is unlikely that Yuan Xian will be able to drive the strange monster to Yunze Lake again. If he wants to speed up the cleansing of his spiritual orifices in the near future, he must focus on brushing up his proficiency in the Dark Cloud True Method."

"I have to practice the authentic water-repellent beads. I will have to rely on this skill to sneak into Eyang Mountain in the future."

His purpose of coming to Eyangdao, in addition to catching the strange monster, was to use the Eyangdao ferry to get away from Yunzhou.

"Well, besides selling the Red Eyed Ghost Patterned Beads, you can give out a genuine Water Repellent Bead every once in a while."

"If we continue to demonstrate our capabilities step by step, once the construction of the Eyangdao ferry begins, there will be a high chance that we will be transferred to Eyangshan."

Thinking of this, Chen Mu called up the gray wall and looked at several secret projects that had to be done every day.

Giant Spirit God: 9533/10000/Level ;

Kuishui Yinlei: 41/10000/Level ;

Nine Cups Arithmetic: 631/10000/Level ;

Dark Cloud True Method: 169/10000/Level ;

Weapon Refining Technique (Water-Repellent Bead): 5947/10000;

"The Dark Cloud Method has the highest priority, and the Weapon Refining Technique is second."

"Lei Fa has just entered a new stage, so we can temporarily slow down the progress."

"The experience of the sixth-level giant spirit god is almost complete, so I can spend more time on it."

"As for the Nine Cups of Mathematics..."

"This unreliable thing can only be used as entertainment."
