Wu Sheng: I can adapt to evolution

Chapter 163 Lord of Pleasure
"Sir, did you hear me wrong? I said two hundred taels, not one tael of silver..."

The smile on the vendor's face froze instantly. Seeing Wei Yun and the others trying to take the things away, he hurried forward to stop them.

But his martial arts skills were rudimentary, and Wei Yun and others pushed him lightly, causing him to roll to the ground.

"Let's go."

Lu Ming rode in front, while Wei Yun threw a tael of silver on the peddler, and they left without looking back.

They didn't know why Lu Ming wanted to bully a street vendor, but since Senior Brother Lu gave the order, they had no choice but to do it.

"Oh, my precious jade."

The peddler looked at the backs of Lu Ming and his companions as they left, and burst into tears. However, no matter how much he cried, there was no sadness in his eyes. He even quickly put the one or two taels of silver into his arms.

"Ah, that thing is just a broken stone. You think you can take advantage of me, but you don't know that even if you give me one or two taels, I will still make a lot of money!"

The peddler watched the departing figures of Lu Ming and his companions, but he did not dare to rush forward, let alone report to the police. He just thought viciously in his heart, which was a kind of comfort to himself.

Lu Ming took the coconut-like thing in his hand and rubbed it gently. The outer layer fell off, revealing a hard shell made of stone that was not very hard. The white jade underneath looked pure white and delicate, but it was actually just a thin layer of stone flakes that were glued on artificially.

Inside, there is a layer of gray, slightly rough stone.

"What a bastard, he actually managed to trick us."

The expressions of Wei Yun and the others changed suddenly. This was completely a counterfeiting technique in the underworld. If they made Senior Brother Lu angry, it would be very bad.

But Lu Ming waved his hand.

He reached out and pressed the rough gray stone again, and with skillful force, he pushed away the outer layer of the stone, revealing an inner layer of blue-gray, gem-like substance.

And inside the orb, there seemed to be another vague shadow that looked like a human figure.

"This is……"

No one expected that there was something hidden inside, but their knowledge was limited and they could not recognize what it was.

"This is a congenital spiritual fetus. It seems to have some congenital defects. It is estimated that it has been born too long and its congenital spiritual energy has been lost a lot. However, it is still a rare treasure in the world. This is the first time I have seen a real thing."

Lu Ming held up the thing and explained to the others.

He had once read the "Records of Strange Things" in the collection room, and this item was ranked sixth among the world's strange things.

If a warrior's innate physique is insufficient, it will be difficult to advance further after reaching the third level of martial arts. Without special opportunities, no matter how hard he tries, it will be useless.

The function of the innate spiritual fetus is to help warriors change their bodies.

That's right, as long as you put a drop of your own blood on the spiritual fetus, your original body will quickly decay, and then all the nutrients will be sent to this stone egg.

Generally, after a few years of gestation, the baby will be born again.

Although they are prone to danger in the early stages because they have no ability to protect themselves, their new physical qualifications are excellent, and their innate wisdom will gradually recover, making them far ahead of others in both mental and physical qualifications.

And I heard that the most amazing thing about this thing is that the innate spiritual fetus itself has no attributes. If you are a warrior, then after refining it, you will have the most powerful martial arts qualifications. If you are a practitioner in other directions, you can also have other top qualifications.

However, for now, this thing seems to be of no use to Lu Ming.

After undergoing numerous trials and tribulations, his own aptitude had long since reached the highest level, and there was no need for him to rely on an innate spiritual fetus. However, this was still a treasure he had acquired for only a few ounces of silver, so he considered it a collection.

……

Lu Ming and others had dinner at Zuixianlou and then went to a house in the west of the city.

The house covers a very large area and has four entrances and exits. Several houses on both sides have been connected together to form additional courtyards and gardens.

It is rumored that this was the house of a powerful official a hundred years ago. Later, the official was sentenced to death for plotting rebellion, and the house was bought by a wealthy businessman. Although the wealthy businessman did not live here, he always sent people to clean it, so it is still relatively tidy and clean.

Lu Ming didn't have much need for material things now. He even felt that it was too spacious for just a few of them to live in such a big place.

But he didn't say much.

However, the next day after they moved in, Wei Yun found Lu Ming with a look of surprise.

"Following Senior Brother Lu, I'm really lucky. Guess what I discovered?"

He led Lu Ming into a well in the inner courtyard. After removing the stone lid, he could vaguely see flashes underwater through the deep well water.

Wei Yun was preparing to fetch water in the morning, but he saw a light flashing in the water.

At first he thought it was the reflection of water, but he soon realized that it was not the same. It seemed to be the shape of gold and silver ingots.

Lu Ming knew that his luck would be extremely good in the near future, but when he saw Wei Yun and others pulling up gold and silver from the well bucket by bucket, he couldn't help but laugh and cry.

These gold and silver should have been hidden in the interlayer of the well wall, and were hidden very secretly. However, due to years of disrepair, the well wall was damaged, and these gold and silver fell and rolled to the bottom of the well, where they were discovered by Wei Yun and others.

However, at this stage, gold and silver have no appeal to him.

"Well, what is this?"

Lu Ming's intention was just to explore the place where the gold and silver were hidden, but he found that the space behind it was actually quite large.

It winds and twists, and a passage hundreds of feet long was built by people.

The passage was further subdivided into many spaces, some for hiding gold and silver, others for weapons and armor. The rumors that the original owner of this house was planning a rebellion seemed to be true.

However, inside one of the passages, there was a strange stone statue.

The stone statue is only seven feet tall and is of a handsome man wearing a gorgeous robe. Although the robe looks a bit tattered due to the passage of time, it can still be seen that the workmanship is extraordinary, and many parts are woven with gold thread.

However, this gorgeous robe was not draped properly on the statue, but worn at an angle, with one arm exposed. Coupled with the faint smile on the corner of the statue's mouth, it gave people a feeling of being not very serious.

"Why not... let's have fun today..."

Next to the statue, there was a tablet. The words on it were not very clear, but Lu Ming could still make out some of them.

"Lord of Pleasure..."

Although he had never seen this statue before, he recognized the identity of this evil god based on the simple information on the tablet.

The [Famous Chalcedony Mine] he obtained a few days ago was the work of this evil god. It is said that he has mastered the power of [Name], but he did not expect to meet his statue here.
