Wandering Gods of Day and Night-Chapter 1159 - 444: The "Sky-High Price" of the Blood Well (3)

Chapter 1159: Chapter 444: The "Sky-High Price" of the Blood Well (3)

It’s just that,

Zhou Xuan felt that with Alchemist Bai Lu’s "no one supports my Qing Yunzhi" kind of childish old age, this person didn’t seem very reliable,

Right now, he first added two stocks of nine incense sticks, to consult the Blood Well carefully, isn’t that better than relying on Alchemist Bai Lu?

"According to the usual nature of the Blood Well, if a question already has a vague answer, then to get close to the absolute truth of this question, the price to be paid would be much less.

To save Hua Zi, I have already known most of the method, even if the well is greedy, it won’t be too outrageous."

But he never expected,

The Blood Well today, for some unknown reason, asked for a price that was extremely outrageous.

Blood-colored waves were actively billowing, and in the snow, wrote a line — nine incense sticks, three.

"This question, is it worth three sets of nine incense sticks?"

Zhou Xuan suddenly thought, should I come up with a set of highly "insulting" words to really deflate the Blood Well’s confidence.

This method of pricing, is simply outrageous.

"Well, you really made me look at you in a new light."

Zhou Xuan looked at the same three lines of words in the snow in a bad mood — nine incense sticks, three.

His mood couldn’t calm down for a long time. If he hadn’t seen the three lines written one after another with his own eyes, he would have suspected his eyes were broken and saw "double vision."

"The first question, to gain the approval of the Heavenly Dome, is equivalent to indirectly truly possessing the Twin Fish, although apart from eating and drinking, I still don’t know what they are good for, but the people who want nine incense sticks in the world are fighting for it, it seems very valuable,

you collect three incense sticks from me, I tolerate it."

"The second question, to know how to nurture Dual Souls, is to take a solid step on the path of understanding the great Dao of Heaven and Earth,

this great Dao of Heaven and Earth seems to be a very profound technique, with a higher value, it’s reasonable, I can still bear it."

"But the third question, I just want to save Hua Zi, Hua Zi is just an ordinary person, and I also have a general idea of how to save him, yet you still want three sets of nine incense sticks from me."

"This I cannot tolerate."

Zhou Xuan crossed his arms and said persuasively and reasonably,

"Well, oh well, what breeze offended you, for three questions put together, it takes nine sets of nine incense sticks,

that’s nine incense sticks, not cabbages on the street, those people grabbing fish today, put together, I don’t even know if they have nine incense sticks, even if I kill them all, they can’t match your asking price,

Well, you give me a discount, otherwise I will start thinking of words to properly humiliate you."

This combination of persuasion plus threat did not make the Blood Well submit.

The Well God remained silent, just silent.

And in its silence, Zhou Xuan watched those three lines of blood words, vaguely feeling something was off.

Among the three matters, the contained value certainly varies,

and the Blood Well’s multiple Divinations, regardless of whether the price was outrageous, the final outcome of the matters always proved the Blood Well’s prices, not to say absolutely fair, but certainly not far off from the true value.

"Well is not someone who asks for absurd prices, and for three things of varying value, to set the same price."

"This is..."

Zhou Xuan thought of this, and then directed his gaze at the three lines, after scrutinizing for a while, he discovered a small pattern.

The three lines of words, whether in size, orientation, or angle, are exactly the same, just different distances from Zhou Xuan in order of appearance.

This seemed to hide the Blood Well’s little scheme.

Zhou Xuan raised his head again and asked, "Well, I want a free question, if you’re willing to answer, then answer, if not, write the price you want."

He said loudly, "Acquiring evidence for the approval of the Heavenly Dome, saving Hua Zi, how to nurture Dual Souls, these are three questions, but, do these three questions have the same answer?"

This was Zhou Xuan’s guess,

But soon, his guess was validated.

The Blood Well decisively wrote a "Yes" in the snow.

"Indeed, Well, you’re still my good Well."

Zhou Xuan clapped his hands.

If the answers to these three questions are the same, then bundling the three questions together for Divination, the price to pay would not be "nine sets of nine incense sticks," but rather "three sets of nine incense sticks."

Three sets of nine incense sticks, Zhou Xuan could afford that, although it would mean throwing all his reserved sacrifices in at once, it’s still worth it.

For Zhou Xuan guessed the mystery, the Blood Well seemed to get excited, the heavy snow melted quickly,

The eyes on the wall also converged together, finally forming a "cross-armed humanoid silhouette."

From their state, they seemed very proud, as if boasting, "Three questions, only charged you three sets of nine incense sticks, the whole time, did I ever ask for a penny more."

"Money was not overasked, but Well, now you’ve gained wisdom, learned to bundle operations."

Zhou Xuan said with a joking tone.

Blood Well: "..."

"Well, no more words, three sets of nine incense stick sacrifices, I paid, let’s begin the Divination."

He issued the command, the eyes on the wall finally got busy, blinking constantly.

Their gaze traversed the Secret Realm, traversed Jing Country, seemingly also through the present time in Laijing Country.

The gaze reached places that might be some section of Jing Country’s already dusty history, or Jing Country’s not distant future...

...

Finally, all the eyes fixed themselves together and shot towards Zhou Xuan’s body.

Zhou Xuan also saw a scene—

— a towering Pill Furnace, like a mountain, standing in the center of Mingjiang Prefecture’s Prefecture City,

The lid of the Pill Furnace had already been lifted, sky-high flames lifted a colorful elixir, slowly flying towards the sky.

In the dense clouds in the sky, countless eyes emerged, and upon seeing that colorful spiritual elixir, they all showed expressions of appreciation,

Beside Zhou Xuan, appeared the Day and Night Dual Souls, they also watched that colorful elixir, their faces under the glow of the fire showed expressions of desire...
