Chapter 172: Mao Tou and Little Ghost
Mi Xiaojing was surprised and asked, "Where did you get it from?"
Dazhu on the side said, "I traded it... I traded it for a Spirit Pill!"
Luo Bo frowned, "You traded it for a Qi Refining Pill?"
The young boy lowered his head a bit fearfully and said, "Mmm, I\'ve always wanted a little ghost..."
Luo Bo was clearly displeased, "You..."
Mi Xiaojing immediately reached out to stop him, "What\'s done is done, Luo Bo... He\'s still young. If he likes little ghosts, let him raise one. It\'s not a big deal."
Luo Bo let out a long sigh. He knew that Qi Refining Pills were precious. If it weren\'t for Mi Xiaojing\'s provision, they wouldn\'t have been able to get them at all. He was naturally unhappy about trading a Qi Refining Pill for a little ghost.
At home, Mi Xiaojing was the eldest, Zhang Ke was the second, and Luo Bo was the third. Of course, Mu Xiaoyin was separate. Sometimes, even Mi Xiaojing had to listen to Mu Xiaoyin.
Mi Xiaojing said, "Let the little ghost out... Let us see."
The young boy was immediately happy. He stood up, blew a breath at the bead, and instantly, the surroundings became cold. A twisted black smoke emerged. This black smoke was only as thick as a finger, and it emerged about a foot from the bead, suddenly transforming into a human face.
The face was very vague. Upon careful discernment, one could see that it was the face of an old man, but it was illusory and unstable.
This was a lowest-level little ghost, the weakest and least valuable. It had just managed to condense a form, had no spiritual intelligence, and could only act on instinct.
Mi Xiaojing was also stunned, "This little ghost... is too poor." As he said this and stood up, taking a step towards the young boy, the little ghost was so scared that it let out a strange scream and suddenly shrank back.
Mi Xiaojing was an Evolutionary Immortal and a Cultivator. Just a bit of his aura was enough to make the little ghost instinctively feel fear. It almost dissipated and hid in the bead, not daring to show its head again.
The young boy quickly put the bead into his storage bag and waved his hand, "Brother Xiao Mi, you can\'t come over. The little ghost is scared to death..."
Mi Xiaojing said, "This ghost is too weak. You should raise a big ghost. This little ghost will be hard to raise."
The young boy said very firmly, "No, I will raise it into a big ghost! Even more powerful!"
Mi Xiaojing could only encourage him, "Alright, I don\'t know what ghosts eat. You\'ll have to raise it slowly."
The young boy said very seriously, "Ghosts eat ghosts..."
Mi Xiaojing and the others were immediately amused by him. Wei Fu said, "In the future, your brother will help you catch ghosts... for your ghost to eat."
The young boy\'s next sentence left everyone speechless.
"Okay, whichever ghost wins, I\'ll raise the most powerful one!" In other words, if a big ghost was brought over and ate the little ghost in the bead, the young boy would accept the big ghost as his own.
Mi Xiaojing asked in confusion, "Didn\'t you just say you wanted to raise this ghost?"
"Yes!"
Luo Bo said, "Slow down, slow down, you\'re confusing me. If I give you a big ghost and it eats your little ghost... won\'t your little ghost be gone? How will you raise your ghost?"
The young boy didn\'t think it was a big deal, "If it eats the little ghost, the big ghost is still there!"
Luo Bo was both amused and exasperated, "So you mean, as long as there\'s a ghost, no matter if you raised it or not, the winning ghost is yours?"
The young boy nodded vigorously, "Yes!"
Luo Bo shook his head, "That doesn\'t count as a ghost you\'ve been raising..."
The young boy said, "It is a ghost I raised. If it eats my little ghost, the big ghost is mine."
Mi Xiaojing asked curiously, "Why?"
The young boy said, "Because it ate the ghost I raised, it\'s like I raised the big ghost..."
Everyone was dizzy from the young boy\'s roundabout logic. Mi Xiaojing waved his hand, "Whatever you say, as long as you think it\'s good." This kid\'s logic was simply bizarre.
Mi Xiaojing sat back down and began to answer questions about Cultivation and Evolutionary Immortality for everyone.
Whenever they had free time and weren\'t cultivating, Mi Xiaojing would act as these children\'s teacher, teaching them how to cultivate. So far, this approach had been very effective.
Moreover, Mi Xiaojing was truly doing his best, teaching them the best things. He always hoped that, apart from himself, these children of the Western Evolutionary Sect could also progress quickly. Even if they couldn\'t help him in the future, they would at least have the ability to protect themselves in the Cultivation World.
As long as their foundation was solid, no matter what happened in the future, they would have a means to survive. Of course, Mi Xiaojing never told them this. He just silently taught them, silently provided everything, the most suitable cultivation methods and spirit medicines, and even prepared weapons for them.
What made Mi Xiaojing happy was that these children were also very promising. Their cultivation levels were gradually improving. He believed that in a few years, these children\'s cultivation levels and abilities would definitely be much stronger than the average disciples of the sect.
After finishing this teaching session, Zhang Ke brought over food. Everyone gathered around the stone table, eating and chatting.
Mi Xiaojing asked, "Did you hear any news about the sect or any other rumors when you went to the market this time?"
Mu Xiaoyin said, "There are many rumors, saying that the sect\'s large formation cannot be repaired... Mmm, there\'s also a legend that Hong Qing is dead..."
Zhang Ke said, "I heard he was killed by a master from the Vast Gold Sect."
Although Hong Qing died in the Gathering Spring Villa, Zhang Ke and the others didn\'t know about it.
Wei Fu said, "I heard them discussing that the sect\'s earth veins are unstable... Brother Xiao Mi, what does it mean for the earth veins to be unstable?"
Mi Xiaojing knew a lot, but he didn\'t know what unstable earth veins meant. He shook his head, "I don\'t know."
Wang Weijun popped up from the heart tower, "A bunch of idiots, unstable earth veins mean there\'s going to be an earthquake. What\'s there not to understand?"
Mi Xiaojing said, "Unstable earth veins mean there\'s going to be an earthquake..."
Wei Fu looked at Mi Xiaojing strangely, "Didn\'t you say you didn\'t understand? How do you know it\'s an earthquake now?"Mi Xiaojing was also speechless, he just blurted out: "Guessing... won\'t work!"
Wei Fu immediately backed down, saying in a flattering tone: "Okay, I believe whatever Brother Xiao Mi says!" He chuckled as he spoke.
Everyone laughed, and Mi Xiaojing helplessly patted Wei Fu\'s head, saying: "Alright, is there anything else besides these?"
Zhang Ke said: "We don\'t go out much, so we don\'t have much news. Actually, you can ask Master Lu for these things, he should know more."
Mi Xiaojing nodded and said: "Hmm, I see."
Zhang Ke said: "Recently, there is a high demand for elixirs. If Junior Uncle has time, you can refine more, especially the Clear Tranquility Pills and Qi Refining Pills. There are also many people who want Foundation Establishment Pills, and the price has already gone up."
Mi Xiaojing shook his head and said: "I won\'t be refining these low-level pills recently. I still have quite a few in my hands, all for you to use, so I won\'t be selling them for now."
Zhang Ke said: "Alright, then we will temporarily suspend the trade with Lu Liu Manor."
Mi Xiaojing said: "Things are not peaceful recently, try to minimize the time spent outside and focus on cultivation." He noticed that everyone was a bit slack, except for Luo Bo who was still cultivating like crazy, the others were obviously a bit lax.
