After returning home, he saw Meng Sheng reading a book. In addition, there were several ancient books spread out on the table. He didn't know what he was studying.

"Mr. Meng, what are you doing?"

"Oh, I want to look for these loose bones you bought in the book."

Zhi Xuan said arrogantly: "You don't believe my nose?"

Mr. Meng said hurriedly: "No, no, I just want to save some energy for my brother Xu. He is old, and it would be tiring for him to look through ancient books. It is better for me to find them for him."

Jiang Chaoge flipped through one of the mottled and yellowed books. The book didn't even have a cover. It looked like it was used to set the table at home, but the content inside was interesting. He flipped through it casually, and it was about some myths and legends.

, what are the ancient strange beasts, ancient witch ancestors, gods, ghosts, the Yellow Emperor fighting Chi You, Gonggong fighting Zhuanxu. The most strange thing about this world to him is that it has countless similarities and connections with his own world.

They were completely different, but judging from this myth and legend, their ancestors should be the same group of people, which made him even more suspicious of the reason and meaning of the existence of this world.

Meng Sheng said: "Have you studied these before?"

Jiang Chaoge shook his head, "No, I just heard a little bit."

"I haven't studied it deeply, but I still remember something. This world and our world have exactly the same mythological system. If calculated according to time, the two worlds were probably the same thousands of years ago, but I don't know

They were separated for some reason and have embarked on two completely opposite evolutionary paths since then."

Jiang Chaoge frowned deeply. It was not that he had not considered the connection between the two worlds and the reason why he traveled through this series of strange things. It was just that thinking about it was in vain because he had no clue. Now he heard such a statement

, he couldn't help but begin to believe in the theory of fate.

A world was divided into two, how? Why? Now he and some "people from other worlds" have traveled through time to make the two worlds overlap again, and why? He has a feeling,

Like destiny is a long train, roaring towards the front without stopping. Now the train has entered a tunnel, and the surroundings are pitch dark. He is at a loss. When he gets out of the tunnel and the truth appears in front of him, he will not

Know whether you can bear it.

Meng Sheng sighed: "When I first came here, I hoped to study these mysteries thoroughly, but then I gave up after I found that I couldn't do anything."

Jiang Chaoge didn't know how to comfort him. He also felt that sense of powerlessness. He picked up the ancient book and wanted to divert this heavy topic. "This book is so old. It shouldn't have recorded the bulk materials I bought."

Bar?"

Meng Sheng shook his head, "What this book records are all legends from ancient times." He paused and glanced at Zhi Xuan, who was playing with bones, "Have you ever heard of the Twelve Strange Beasts of Ancient Times?"

Jiang Chaoge thought for a while, "I know some ancient beasts, but which twelve are you referring to in particular?"

"It is recorded in the ancient books of Tianling Continent that the most famous twelve strange beasts in ancient times are the Four Divine Beasts: Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, Xuanwu, and the Four Spiritual Beasts: Qilin, Baize, Zhuyin, and Bifang;

And the four evil beasts: Taotie, Qiongqi, Chaos, and Taowu.”

"I have heard of these." Jiang Chaoge felt that Meng Sheng was not studying his bulk materials at all, otherwise the span would be too big. He smiled and said, "Why are you suddenly interested in these?"

"Do you remember the legendary god-level soul weapon I told you?"

Jiang Chaoge said in surprise: "It's these strange beasts..."

"That's right, the legendary twelve god-level soul weapons. Of course, no one can confirm the authenticity of these legends. For example, it doesn't make sense how these strange beasts that can control wind and rain died, and how they were killed.

People are made into weapons."

Zhi Xuan's little hand that was playing with the bones paused, and his fingernails turned green and white due to excessive exertion. He lowered his head, and his golden eyes were full of gloom, as if they were burning with a fire that devoured everything.

Jiang Chaoge shrugged, "It really doesn't make sense. However, in our world, they are just myths. Not many people believe in myths. But in this world, many strange beasts recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas have appeared. This proves that these ancient

Most of the alien beasts really existed, but our world has been separated, and they have only existed in this world."

Meng Sheng sighed again, "No, even in this world, their authenticity has not been officially confirmed. Many people think that they are just fabricated symbols of power."

"I am more inclined to this view. These strange beasts are so powerful and can live for thousands of years. It is impossible for them all to die collectively."

Meng Sheng nodded vigorously, not knowing whether he was conforming to Jiang Chaoge or comforting himself, "You are right. This does not make sense. God-level soul weapons are just fabricated based on the legend of alien beasts."

Jiang Chaoge joked: "If there really is a god-level soul weapon, how much would it be worth? You can't even buy it for a gold mountain."

Zhi Xuan snorted heavily, "Fool, you can't even use a yellow-level soul weapon, how dare you think of a god-level weapon."

Jiang Chaoge smiled: "Just thinking about it." He stood up and stretched, "I'm going to practice, you don't need to call me to eat."

Jiang Chaoge's training results during this period are pretty good, and he can feel progress every day. It seems that Meng Sheng's statement about his high talent is true. He can now control mice to run around the house at will. Ordinary beasts can control

He can also summon a yellow-level soul weapon, which means that he can summon Zhi Xuan alone, but the duration is shorter.

In addition to practicing soul power, he also takes time to practice swordsmanship every day. When he makes money, he will have to find a martial artist to teach him. He wonders whether other people who have obtained heaven-level soul weapons will have to make some changes to adapt to the new weapons.

Sacrifice, thinking that if someone is good at using a bow, but the heaven-level soul weapon that suits him is a hammer, it will probably be more painful than him, and he feels much more comfortable.

Three days later, the largest morning market in Juan City began. This morning market was no different from the usual ones, but soon people discovered something was wrong. The usual stalls selling ghost grass that could be seen everywhere actually appeared out of thin air.

After disappearing, I searched the whole street, but only found two pitiful ones. The stock was very small and they were quickly sold out.

At first, people didn't take it to heart, but as time went by, when they found that they couldn't buy the ghost grass even if they walked around the streets and alleys of Juan City, they realized that something was serious. The ghost grass is used to make Horcruxes.

It is a necessary ingredient. The entire city of Juan consumes a lot of it every day. If there is no ghost grass, you have to buy substitute herbs at a high price. Some people cannot afford it. Even if they can afford it, the price of Horcruxes has suddenly increased a lot.

It was not conducive to take action. In this way, Juan City fell into a crisis of shortage of ghost grass quietly.

Some smart people immediately organized people to go up the mountain to collect the ghost grass, but it had to be dried for 49 days before it could be used. During this period, they were still unable to do anything. Many people were asking who bought so much ghost grass.

.

Five days later, the demand for Nether Spirit Grass reached an unprecedented level. Some people had already gone to other cities to purchase it, but whether it was by water or land, it was impossible to return within a few days to the nearest city.

At this moment, a new shop opened on the busiest morning market street in Juan City. The shop was obviously newly rented and had not been renovated. It only had several tables and only sold one thing - ghost grass.

!

The people in Juan City have all come to realize that this is an unscrupulous deal played by a thoughtful person. Nowadays, there is no ghost grass in the entire Juan City. Naturally, this family has a rare commodity. Faced with the price of 30 copper coins per bundle, everyone is itching with hatred.

, but had to buy it to meet the urgent need, otherwise those who were in a hurry to introduce it would delay the production of the Horcrux, which would definitely be a small gain.

Many people want to know who is the person behind this thing, but that person never shows up. Several people are hired in the shop, and they are all handed over to the poor boy who used to sell beads and flowers on the street in the morning market. The money is like running water.

He rushed in like a squeak.

Jiang Chaoge not only bought the ready-made Ming Ling grass, but also bought all the ones that were drying. He made money here and continued to buy there. After playing like this for half a month, he had already earned five gold coins. Not only had he

He redeemed his ring and actually built a wine cellar for Zhi Xuan so that the naughty kid could be drunk all day long and never have the chance to bother him again.

After a cycle of 49 days, Jiang Chaoge stopped buying and only sold out the inventory as soon as possible, because the batch that he picked and dried due to the shortage of ghost grass was almost mature. If he continued to play, firstly,

No longer alone, the second reason is that I am afraid of being jealous and causing trouble.

After staying in Huancheng for less than three months, Jiang Chao Ge Chun earned thirteen gold coins, from poverty to a small fortune. Meng Sheng and Sun An, who witnessed how he became more and more successful along the way, admired him.

Zhi Xuan followed him all day long, eating and drinking spicy food, his temper got better, and he started calling him by his name most of the time.

Jiang Chaoge gave Sun An a heavy gold coin.

Sun An was frightened, "Brother, you don't have to give me so much..."

Jiang Chaoge patted him on the shoulder, "You and I have worked hard during this period. I never treat my brothers badly. You deserve this."

Sun An was moved to tears. You must know that one gold coin is enough for an ordinary person for a lifetime. Two months ago, he was an unlucky guy who couldn't even sell beads. If he hadn't met Jiang Chaoge, how could he be where he is today?

, Jiang Chaoge is not only a nobleman, he is simply his god.

Jiang Chaoge smiled and said: "Take it, don't show off. You have learned a lot from following me during this period. If you want to be stable, this gold coin will be enough for you for a lifetime, but if you still have some ambition, use your brain.

Order something."

Sun An nodded hurriedly, "I don't want to sit back and be in vain, I still have to do something. If I don't understand something, please give me more guidance."

"no problem."

"Brother, what are your plans next?"

"I want to rest for a while." With money, Jiang Chaoge planned to buy the thing he needed most - soul medicine, and then practice in seclusion.

"Brother, as long as you need me, come to me at any time, and Sun An will do his best!"

Jiang Chaoge smiled and said, "I wrote it down."

After Sun An left, Meng Sheng sighed: "You are so generous, you only cost one gold coin."

"This guy is not bad. Although he is not very smart, he is down-to-earth and diligent. If he wants to live in Juan City for a long time, there will be a need for him." Jiang Chaoge said: "As you said, the soul medicine is so expensive, these 12 gold coins may

It was all spent very quickly.”

"Let me buy you a soul potion. A medium soul potion costs one gold coin each, while the top quality ones are priceless. My opinion is, if you want to buy it, just buy the best one you can afford. One gold coin costs one.

No matter how many pills you take, they may not have the same effect as a really good pill."

"I think so too." Jiang Chaoge gave all the gold coins to Meng Sheng.

After Meng Sheng left, Jiang Chaoge wanted to go into the house to practice, but Zhi Xuan stopped him, "How is your sword practice going?"

Jiang Chaoge said: "Do you want to see it?" He hasn't hired a martial artist yet, but has been practicing basic chopping, chopping, picking, and stabbing. Although he doesn't understand sword skills, he knows that these four are definitely the introduction to sword skills.

No matter how varied the sword technique is, it is only derived from these four movements and cannot be separated from them. After practicing these four basic movements, it will be easier to integrate into advanced sword techniques in the future.

"let me see."

Jiang Chaoge picked up the Zhixuan Knife, held the handle with both hands, squatted down on horseback, held the blade at fifty degrees with the blade facing the ground. He shouted low, raised the knife and lowered it, slashing it down with force. The sound of the wind was accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air.

With a bit of power, he stabilized his lower body, took a step forward, and slashed with the blade diagonally, sweeping across thousands of troops. He took another step forward, raised the blade, and the cold air overflowed. He took another step forward, and the blade stabbed forward, as powerful as breaking bamboo.

These four movements were done in one go. Although they are all the most basic movements, the speed, strength and confidence when landing the knife are all remarkable. The knife is powerful. After swinging these four knives, Jiang Chaoge's arm went numb.
