The Difference Between a Brothel and a Teahouse!
Whether Chu Xinghe was full of enthusiasm is unknown...
Anyway Mu Xiaoqi is exhausted from writing...
Mu Xiaoqi said to Senior Brother Xinghe... I've been writing all this... you just talked the talk...
Chu Mu Xiaoqi had no idea what Chu Xinghe was feeling... All Chu Xinghe was that this game was a godsend for him!
Wang Tieniu 'Wang Tieniu Stone-Pointing Art is unparalleled... but his Mine Seeking Art is not!
If I don't make a move this round... tell me how I can lose?
Moreover, not only did I, Chu Xinghe, not make a move this time... I didn't even say a word to Tieniu... I just stayed inside the Technique Repository Tower...
If I do nothing and say nothing... tell me, how did Tieniu Niu turn the tables?
Wang Tieniu was naturally aware that Senior Brother Xinghe was staying in the Technique Repository Tower to write down secret techniques...
Although the spirit mine was of great importance... Wang Tieniu understood even more clearly that those secret techniques could further enhance the sect's strength.
So after much deliberation, Wang Tieniu finally sighed... Preferring a safer approach, Wang Tieniu decided to give up... He wouldn't gamble this time... After all, Tieniu knew the saying that gamblers never end well.
So what Tieniu means is, we don't care whether other companies buy the mineral veins in the Spirit Beast Continent or not, but we absolutely cannot buy any of them!
Let's end this game here!
Upon hearing Wang Tieniu's statement, Chu Xinghe immediately became anxious!
Is this the end?
Tieniu, what are you saying? What do you mean gambling addicts deserve to die a horrible death?
As the saying goes, no gambler can lose forever.
How could you back down at such a small difficulty? You've only lost a few dollars!
But Chu Xinghe didn't dare to try to persuade Wang Tieniu...
Because you have no idea what kind of nonsense these bastards will come up with when I try to persuade them.
Just when Chu Xinghe was at his wit's end, Ma Liang found Wang Tieniu.
"Tieniu greets Senior Brother Ma Liang!"
"Tieniu Niu... I heard you're planning to end things here?"
"Yes!"
"Tieniu Niu... Senior Brother Ma Liang has to say a few words to you this time! Being cautious is fine, but being too cautious makes you lack drive!"
"Senior Brother Ma Liang is right, but the problem is that even Senior Brother Ma Liang knows my Mine Seeking Art... I'm not really confident. I made three attempts in the past two days, and... I lost money each time... If I keep trying, I'm afraid... I'll lose even more!"
Ma Liang nodded in agreement with Tieniu's statement... because Tieniu was absolutely right...
The problem is that Senior Brother Xinghe is currently writing secret techniques in the Technique Repository Tower and can't spare the time to go and help...
What should we do?
After thinking it over, Ma Liang suddenly thought of someone.
Feng Yuzheng!
As we all know, Junior Brother Yuzheng only possesses unique abilities in Divine Engraving Technique, but he also seems to have unparalleled abilities in treasure hunting!
So Ma Liang immediately led Wang Tieniu to find Feng Yuzheng.
Feng Yuzheng was completely dumbfounded by the sudden arrival of his Senior Brother Ma Liang!
Um... Senior Brother Ma Liang... do you want to hear what you're saying...? I am indeed very knowledgeable in Treasure Seeking Art, but the treasures I Treasure Seeking Art are not the same as mineral veins.
Treasure Seeking Art involves locating treasures based on the spiritual energy they emit... but mineral veins are a completely different matter!
Therefore, my Treasure Seeking Art are of no help in finding mineral veins...
Otherwise, why would it be called Treasure Seeking Art instead of Mine Seeking Art?
Seeing Feng Yuzheng's bewildered expression, Ma Liang said seriously, "Junior Brother Yuzheng... you're not quite right..."
Your Treasure Seeking Art is indeed for finding spiritual essence, but spiritual essence and spiritual Spiritual Qi... doesn't that sound similar...?
Spiritual charm is still spiritual... treasure hunting is still searching!
Doesn't that sound perfectly reasonable?
So why don't you go with Wang Tieniu and give it a try? What if it actually works?
What if?
If it really doesn't work out, we're not short of a few dollars. At most, we'll lose some resources, but that's not something we can't afford!
Look at how arrogant the Cui Clan has become! They shout that their Geomancy and Spirit-Seeking Art Mine Seeking Art the strongest in the world at the drop of a hat. Senior Brother Ma Liang, I can't stand their arrogant faces!
Although Feng Yuzheng was speechless at Senior Brother Ma Liang's persuasion, he eventually nodded in agreement.
Just as Feng Yuzheng nodded in agreement, Chu Xinghe received the news.
When Chu Xinghe heard that Ma Liang, that bastard, had brought Wang Tieniu to ask Feng Yuzheng for help without a second thought, he was so angry he almost peed his pants!
Hey Ma Liang, can't you be a decent human being? Yuzheng was honestly studying his Divine Engraving Technique, so why did you have to go and bother him?
However, there's something Ma Liang said that actually makes some sense... After all, Treasure Seeking Art is still about searching... and spiritual energy is still spiritual energy!
What if the Treasure Seeking Art really does find the spirit ore? What if the spirit ore also emits some strange substances?
What if Feng Yuzheng goes there and goes on a killing spree?
Therefore, Chu Xinghe found Feng Yuzheng overnight.
Facing Senior Brother Xinghe, Feng Yuzheng smiled wryly and said, "Senior Brother Xinghe... don't you know the state of my Treasure Seeking Art? If it's treasure hunting, I'll definitely have no problem using Treasure Seeking Art... but finding spirit mines, that's simply unrealistic..."
"Are you sure?" Chu Xinghe asked with a worried expression.
"I'm sure... Senior Brother Xinghe, the Treasure Seeking Art is something passed down in our Feng Lineage. If we could really find a spirit vein, our Feng Lineage wouldn't have ended up in that state... So my Treasure Seeking Art really can't help with the spirit mine at all. Why don't you talk to Senior Brother Ma Liang about it, Senior Brother Ma Liang Senior Brother Xinghe? Sending me there would only cause the sect to suffer a huge loss!"
Chu Xinghe: "Swear it!"
"Senior Brother Xinghe, I, Feng Yuzheng, swear to heaven that my Treasure Seeking Art are absolutely useless in finding spirit mines! I, Feng Yuzheng, truly have no idea how to find spirit mines, so please don't send me there. Going to the sect will be a huge loss for me!"
Feng Yuzheng was almost in tears at this moment...
Chu Xinghe's eyes lit up at this moment!
My junior brother even swore an oath!
It is important to know that since entering the Vast Heaven Sect, Feng Yuzheng's fate has been completely rewritten. He went from being a boy from a small Lineage to becoming a core disciple of the Vast Heaven Sect.
Every time Feng Yuzheng received a letter from his sister Feng Yuyan, the letter always reminded him that as a member of the Vast Heaven Sect, he should prioritize the sect's interests, work hard to build the sect, and be grateful for the opportunity given to him by Senior Brother Xinghe.
Feng Yuzheng never forgot his Senior Brother Xinghe's teachings, so Feng Yuzheng was always thinking about building up the sect, constantly improving the Flute of Space and Time, refining his Treasure Appraisal Art, and constantly enhancing his own strength.
Although his contributions to the sect may be far less than those of his fellow disciples, Feng Yuzheng said he had truly tried his best.
But this time, Senior Brother Ma Liang was practically forced into this situation...
Treasure Seeking Art and Mine Seeking Art may sound like they differ by only one word, but in reality, they're not just different things... They're completely different things!
A brothel and a teahouse differ by only one character... how can their businesses be the same?
Go to the brothel and the teahouse and tell them to bring me two... but no ones over eighteen!
Do you think they'll give you the same things?
The difference between Treasure Seeking Art and Mine Seeking Art is that big. Mine Seeking Art requires analyzing the trend of spirit ore... analyzing the veins of spirit ore, and knowing the essence of spirit ore. These have absolutely nothing to do with Treasure Seeking Art!
So Feng Yuzheng was about to cry... He thought about building up the sect every moment, but if he really had to use his Treasure Seeking Art to mine, then forget about building up the sect... it would just cause the sect to lose a fortune!
Therefore, Feng Yuzheng believed that after listening to his words, Senior Brother Xinghe would definitely understand his thoughts.
"Alright! You go with Tieniu! Senior Brother Xinghe will keep an eye on your Treasure Seeking Art... Just follow your instincts... Don't worry about any losses!"
Feng Yuzheng: "???"
Feng Yuzheng was completely dumbfounded...
Um... Senior Brother Xinghe... you didn't hear a single word of my explanation, did you?
I really can't do it... Going there would be a complete loss... My Treasure Seeking Art aren't up to par... Senior Brother Xinghe, what I meant was that you shouldn't go... I'm not being modest!
In the following time, Feng Yuzheng explained his Treasure Seeking Art and all his abilities to Senior Brother Xinghe in detail... Everything he said conveyed the same message... He really didn't have Mine Seeking Art... He really knew nothing about spirit mines, and going there would be a 100% guaranteed loss!
But the more Feng Yuzheng talked, the brighter Senior Brother Xinghe's eyes became... especially when he emphasized that he was at a complete loss, Senior Brother Xinghe even burst out laughing...
Feng Yuzheng didn't know how he got out of the Technique Repository Tower... but Feng Yuzheng did know that Senior Brother Xinghe had high hopes for him... and that he wouldn't need to feel any pressure once he got there, he could just make his moves and be done with it...
Senior Brother Xinghe even set himself a mission... No matter how severe the losses, he absolutely could not stop...
In short, it boils down to one sentence... Just follow your instincts... Forget about Treasure Seeking Art or Spirit Seeking Art...
To be honest, if it were anyone else... Feng Yuzheng would probably have gone to the Grand Elder... Isn't this just setting Feng Yuzheng up?
But if you say that Senior Brother Xinghe tricked me, Feng Yuzheng, isn't that a bit too far-fetched?
No matter how hard Feng Yuzheng thought about it, he couldn't understand how there was any chance of turning the tables by pretending his Treasure Seeking Art as a Mine Seeking Art...
That's a mineral vein... Buying just one requires countless massive amounts of resources... A single loss could bankrupt many small sects... Even if our Vast Heaven Sect is incredibly wealthy and powerful... can we afford to lose money like this?
Feng Yuzheng didn't know whether others could do it or not; all Feng Yuzheng knew was that if Senior Brother Xinghe said he could do it... then he definitely could... As for why he could do it... you just need to believe that Senior Brother Xinghe must have a deeper meaning!
Feng Yuzheng followed Wang Tieniu onto the teleportation array heading to the Spirit Beast Continent, Feng Yuzheng completely bewildered as they left.
Chu Xinghe stood atop the Technique Repository Tower, watching his bewildered junior brother Yuzheng slowly disappear into the light of the teleportation array, a smile appearing on his face!
For safety reasons, Chu Xinghe even made a special trip to visit Elder He and the Great Sage.
When Chu Xinghe asked if Feng Yuzheng's Treasure Seeking Art could find spirit ores, Elder He retorted, "Xinghe, what the hell are you talking to me about? These are completely different things..."
"Xinghe, do you know the difference between a brothel and a teahouse? Cough cough... Xinghe, I didn't say brothels because I like going there... You know, I need to do research to compile some books... I go to brothels mainly for research!"
Chu Xinghe: "Understood! It's just research... just research..."
But Elder He's explanation was the same as Feng Yuzheng's: the Treasure Seeking Art could never find the spiritual vein.
Afterwards, Chu Xinghe visited the Great Sage. Although the Great Sage Great Sage had no experience in investigating brothels, he also said that it was completely useless!
After receiving confirmation from these two, Chu Xinghe was teary-eyed and adorable...
This time... tell me, how did I lose?!
