Chapter 293: Stone Tools - God's Treasure

Views:

The Nine Secrets of Lizhou came from a very mysterious place. Ye Fan carefully observed this brocade silk. According to the above record, it is very far away, and it is already close to the central part of the Eastern Wasteland.

Shengya, this is an ancient name, which is marked on this brocade, and it is exactly the place that contains the nine secrets.

Ye Fan felt that the name was a bit special, so he couldn't help but ask the big black dog, "Heihuang, have you heard of Shengya?"

The big black dog's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "How do you know this name?"

"I threw the ancient scroll to Duan De, and kept this brocade silk. It mentioned where the Nine Secrets are hidden." Ye Fan didn't hide it from the Black Emperor.

"This place is very unusual. There was a great emperor who had been there. Facing the ancient cliff, he felt something in his heart and paid his respects there." Heihuang said.

"What kind of place is it?" Ye Fan was even more surprised.

"It seems to be rumored that a great ancient sacred body fell there, and the blood stained the cliff. The ancient emperors are lonely and invincible. After traveling to the ancient cliff, most of them think that the holy body is worth selling if it is still alive."

"There is such an anecdote..." Ye Fan touched his chin. This is an unusual place. The Nine Secrets are hidden in that area, and he has to go there.

But he doesn't want to leave right now, with the brocade in hand, the Nine Secrets can't run away, so he can just follow the map and find out. Today, what he needs most is to improve his realm, rather than urgently looking for secret methods.

Over the past few days, he has traveled through dozens of cities, constantly buying stones, and then went to uninhabited lands to cut them apart. Including what he owned before, he has accumulated more than ten thousand catties of resources.

Right now, he has been able to break through into the third heaven of the Dao Palace, but he is not satisfied, and really wants to be promoted to the Fourth Heaven of the Dao Palace.

It's just that the difficulty is too great, it needs 100,000 catties, which is a dizzying number, and it's a bit difficult to just gamble with stones.

"Maybe it's time to go to the holy city..." Ye Fan said to himself.

After more than half a month, the turmoil in Lizhou did not subside, on the contrary, it intensified. The other focus person of the day... Duan De, compared to Ye Fan, was in a state of embarrassment.

The unscrupulous Taoist priest is indeed a character. Under the circumstances that day, he found an opportunity and escaped successfully.

However, his life was very difficult in the following days. All the holy lands searched and arrested at the same time. Wu Dao, one of the thirteen bandits, roared and chased him down, and the monster clan also haunted him.

Duan Delian fled for half a month, he was so tired that he almost vomited blood, and was almost skinned alive, finally couldn't hold on anymore, and threw the ancient scroll away with shaking hands.

But even so, he didn't have a good time. Wu Dao, one of the thirteen bandits, seemed to have locked him, chasing and killing him day and night without stopping for a moment.

Someone saw that after half a month, Duan De had lost a lot of weight and was covered in blood, but the only surprising thing was that he was still alive and kicking, showing no signs of exhaustion.

"This fat man is so fateful. All the holy lands didn't kill him, and even Wu Dao himself didn't catch up to him." Ye Fan was speechless.

According to the latest news, Duan De was hunted down by Wu Dao and fled towards Zhongzhou.

After the ancient scroll was thrown by the unscrupulous Taoist priest, the heirs of the All Holy Lands fought violently, which shocked the elders. Their fighting power was extremely astonishing.

"We have to go back to Shizhai, and we need to transfer people away. It is estimated that after a while, the dispute over the ancient scrolls will come to an end, and most of the holy places will sit down and talk about it."

That is not the Nine Secrets, but a world-shocking map. If the major sects understand it, there will be huge waves. It cannot be monopolized by one family. A holy place in that place cannot be conquered.

He didn't want the people in Shizhai to be impacted, he wanted to arrange them well in advance and keep them away from Zishan.

"If the holy lands attack Purple Mountain aggressively, other places will be empty, and there may be a great opportunity at that time, I need the source!" Ye Fan is full of longing.

Half a month later, Ye Fan and Heihuang returned to Shizhai, where it was the same as before, without much change.

This place is far from being rich and beautiful. The village surrounded by reddish-brown stones is very desolate, with very little vegetation. This is just a small oasis of more than ten miles away.

However, the people here are in a good state of mind, digging resources for a living, and their lives are worry-free, and they can go to distant oases to exchange daily necessities.

"It's Brother Ye who's back, and that... the Black Emperor." The people in Shizhai greeted enthusiastically, almost calling the big black dog the wrong name.

When they learned that they were going to move out of this place, many elderly people were silent. They had lived here for generations, and it was hard for anyone to accept their sudden departure.

"I have to move away. There will be no peace here in the future, and there will be a huge storm." Ye Fan explained patiently.

In the end, he had no choice but to invite Zhang Wuye here and briefly describe the situation in Zishan.

Hearing that the Holy Land was coming, Zhang Wuye changed his color and sighed: "Our ancestors let us guard here, do we have to evacuate now?"

The Black Emperor poked his huge head over and said, "Leave, your clan will have great blessings in the future."

Ye Fan has heard that the first ancestor of the Zhang family, the Yuan Tianshi, once said that staying here to pay respects to Zishan will bring great blessings in the future.

For many people, moving out of this place is a sad process, Ye Fan did not rush them because there is still plenty of time.

Even if the ancient scroll falls into the hands of the Holy Land, it will be difficult to achieve any results in a short period of time. The game between all parties requires constant compromise and redistribution of interests.

However, at this moment, the big black dog made a discovery. When it ran to Zishan to watch, it found a figure, and someone had already arrived!

"Are you sure?" Ye Fan was surprised, it was too fast.

"That person is very scary. I only saw a phantom, which disappeared in a flash." The big black dog said in a deep voice.

The Heihuang could only vaguely see that person wearing Taoist robes, standing on the top of the purple mountain, disappearing in an instant, which shocked him greatly.

"Wearing Taoist robes, could it be that fat man who came? But, isn't he being chased towards Zhongzhou?" Ye Fan was puzzled.

"It's definitely not the fat man. He can't be that fast. I will remember the person I bitten very clearly. This person is quite terrifying. The emperor disappeared in the blink of an eye."

Ye Fan felt that he needed to leave quickly, this place was not peaceful, and the turmoil came faster than he imagined.

"You urge them to clean up quickly, and I'll go out for a while." He left Shizhai and went to Pingyan City to inquire about the news, only to learn that the Holy Land hadn't taken any action, and the turmoil with the ancient scrolls was still ongoing.

"What's going on here? In the future of the Holy Land, someone has arrived first. He must be a top expert." Ye Fan secretly guessed that this person must have read the ancient scroll.

When Ye Fan came back, he saw the big black dog dozens of miles away from Shizhai, and wondered, "Why are you here?"

"A bull-nosed man has come and entered Shizhai. The emperor can't see through him, and he is afraid that he will be harmful to the emperor."

"So, you ran out?" Ye Fan was surprised, he was a little worried about the people in Shizhai.

"Don't worry, after reaching that level of cultivation, it will definitely not be difficult for ordinary people, but I don't know why he entered the stone village."

"You said his Taoist, could it be the one you saw on the top of Purple Mountain?"

"It's probably that Niubi, otherwise, how could there be two super masters in the same area." The big black dog pondered for a while, and said, "Go and see, what is he doing?"

Ye Fan thought about it, changed his appearance, dressed up as Wang Shu, even the original temperament was almost the same.

Now, about to leave this place, Wang Shu is not in Shizhai, but is purchasing the necessary supplies in Pingyan City.

He returned to Shizhai in the form of Wang Shu, as soon as he came back, he saw many people surrounded in the village, many people were discussing.

"What's going on?" Ye Fan asked.

"An old man came here. It's very strange. He took a fancy to the grinder from Zhang Wuye's family, and also fell in love with the millstone from Erlianzi's family. He is planning to buy it."

"This veteran's eyesight is too poor. Even I can see that the roller and mill must have no source. He actually wants to pay a high price for it. I really don't know what he thinks."

Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he hurried forward. There was an old Taoist in the crowd, wearing an old Taoist robe, which looked quite old and turned pale from washing.

"This kind of clothing is different from today's..." Ye Fan's heart moved, the style of Taoist robes was very old.

His expression was calm, but there was a burst of horror in his heart. The momentary sense of spirituality made him feel like he was facing a sleeping ancient savage dragon.

However, the spiritual sense disappeared in a flash, and he quickly lost that feeling. He was calm and nothing unusual.

This is an old man with white hair and shawls. He looks like he may be in his sixties or seventies, and he is full of energy.

"I'll give you ten catties, and I'll take this millstone." The old man said to the parents of the second fool.

"Ten catties?!" Everyone around was shocked.

Even Ye Fan was a little puzzled, he was also watching the millstone carefully, but he didn't notice anything unusual.

In the end, Lao Dao bought the millstone and began to cut stones in front of everyone.

The stone chips were flying, and he was very careful, for fear of cutting some treasures, they peeled off layer by layer, and he didn't hack at all.

However, in the end, the millstone turned into a pile of stone chips, but nothing was cut out. The old Taoist frowned, stood up, pointed to the stone mill in front of Zhang Wuye's house not far away, and said, "This mill , I will pay twenty catties."

"This..." The people in Shizhai were quite shocked.

"Fifth Master, what is the origin of these stone rollers and stone mills?" Ye Fan asked Zhang Wuye in a low voice.

"I haven't heard of any origin..." Zhang Wuye frowned, thought carefully for a long time, and said: "My ancestors have been using it for generations, nothing special, anyway, I can't see the source."

Suddenly, Zhang Wuye changed his expression and looked at Ye Fan. They thought of the same possibility. These stone mills and stone rollers must have been specially left by their ancestors, right

One must know that the ancestors of the Zhang family were not ordinary people, they were a generation of strange people.

If it was specially left by the ancestors, it must be extraordinary. With their eyesight, they can't see anything special at all.

"Are there many such stone tools in the village?" Ye Fan asked.

"Specifically... I haven't counted it." Zhang Wuye's fingers trembled a little.

Are the things that strange man left for his descendants the most common stone piers, stone mills, stone rollers and the like? Ye Fan was shocked.
