Chapter 168 "Calculation"
Shrek City was bustling with people. Looking around, one could see many soul guides everywhere. Some stalls had phonograph soul guides on display, from which could be heard the vendors' rhythmic shouts.
In addition to the luster of various gems on the signs on both sides, some soul guides also emit colorful light. Occasionally, a strange-shaped means of transportation will appear on the street. Although simple, it saves a lot of effort. At first glance, it looks a bit like the city in the Sun and Moon Empire.
"I didn't expect Shrek City to change so much."
"Isn't this what you think?"
"Mine?" Wang Nan was stunned. He really missed the convenience of his previous life, so he mentioned some convenient and simple soul guide ideas with Ye Xiaosheng when chatting, but he didn't expect that the source of such a thing here was actually here.
"Is this all caused by Ye Xiaosheng?"
"Not entirely. The Soul Guidance Department proposed that soul guides can be used for more than just combat. Many graduates of the Soul Guidance Department felt that they were not talented enough, so they tinkered in other directions."
Although they lack talent, the soul masters who can enter Shrek Academy can't be that bad. Even if they have not seen a completely different system like Wang Nan, they have still been able to tinker with a lot of good things.
"You know so clearly?"
"After graduation, I also helped the teacher deal with some matters of Shrek Academy, so I still know some things around me."
"Let's go, the Tang Sect is just ahead." Ma Xiaotao said, quickening her pace.
"Don't worry, just continue walking around the city for a while."
Ma Xiaotao looked at Wang Nan in confusion. He asked about Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao because he obviously had something to ask them, so why was he not in a hurry now?
Wang Nan pulled Ma Xiaotao and walked forward first. "It's not good to stay in the academy all the time. Now that we are out, let's have a good rest for a day."
……
It was almost evening when Ma Xiaotao and Wang Nan arrived at the Tang Sect's territory. The setting sun shone on the gate of the Tang Sect, turning it orange. The two characters "Tang Sect" were written in a flamboyant style on the gate. Two disciples stood on both sides, wearing light blue uniforms with golden blue silver grass patterns embroidered on the hems.
Wang Nan only took a quick glance and detected the faint fluctuations of soul power coming from the waists and wrists of the two disciples. They should be wearing soul guides there.
It seems that even with the rapid development of soul guides, the Tang Sect still has not given up its original hidden weapons. The soul guides on the wrists and waist are obviously located in positions that are convenient for launching hidden weapons.
However, the Tang Sect is now considered to be wealthy and powerful, and two ordinary disciples have at least two storage soul guides.
"Hello, we are from Shrek Academy." Ma Xiaotao stepped forward and spoke.
"Hello, please follow me." The disciple at the gate of Tang Sect only glanced at the badge in Ma Xiaotao's hand and opened the gate behind him without further verification. After all, in Shrek City, there are really not many people who dare to pretend to be from Shrek Academy.
As we walked further inside, the interior layout of the Tang Sect became much more "retro". Although there were some soul guides, their styles were completely different from those in Shrek City.
"Senior brother, senior sister."
After crossing the courtyard, he saw Bei Bei standing in the yard talking to several disciples. After hearing footsteps, he turned around and saw Wang Nan and Ma Xiaotao coming in.
"Why are you here?"
"I came to see if you and Yuhao needed any help. I heard that you were in the sect, and I haven't been here since the Tang Sect was built, so I came to take a look."
Although Wang Nan had other purposes for this trip, he was sincere in his words. He was taken care of by Moon En, and he was willing to help Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao as long as it was within his ability. "Fortunately, although it is a bit crude, it still has a lot of disciples."
"I see that you treat your disciples very well."
"Brother, you figured it out." Beibei said with a smile, "This is all Yuhao's idea. He said that it doesn't take much effort for him to make some simple soul guides, and the raw materials can be purchased directly from the academy, so he equipped some for the disciples."
"Brother and sister, please come in and sit down."
Walking into the living room, Beibei poured some tea and placed it on the table. "Yuhao is still in the back making soul guides. I'll send someone to call him."
"That's fine. I haven't seen him for a while." Wang Nan did not refuse.
The three of them sat and chatted for a while before Huo Yuhao finally arrived.
"Brother Wang!" As soon as he entered the room, Huo Yuhao shouted excitedly.
"Come and sit down." Wang Nan motioned Huo Yuhao to sit next to him.
As soon as he sat down, Huo Yuhao's eyes fell on Wang Nan's waist. There was a small brocade bag about the length of a palm hanging there, which was emitting a faint green light.
I’m sorry, Xiao Yuhao, just like you don’t want others to know your secrets, I also have some things I can’t tell you, so I have to “plot” against you.
In Huo Yuhao’s sea of consciousness, the gray ball of light that had rarely moved suddenly vibrated slightly, and an old voice slowly sounded.
But it can't be considered a calculation, it can only be called a transaction.
Wang Nan clearly remembered that although the fragments of Alex's consciousness fell into Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness, they were likely to dissipate at any time. It was only after he obtained the Blade of Life that they were completely stabilized.
Now that the Blade of Life is in his hands, Alex must need this thing.
Wang Nan had intended to use this Life Blade to exchange for the method of using Life Gold. As long as he had the method of using Life Gold, there were still so many things waiting for him in the Star Dou Great Forest, so this would not be a big deal.
However, he had no way to explain how he knew how to use the Gold of Life in Huo Yuhao's hands, so he could only "plot" against him a little to see if he could get him to bring it up on his own initiative.
In fact, in order to let the Soul Gold strengthen his body, Wang Nan has been keeping it in his arms. However, Huo Yuhao cannot use his mental power to sweep others at any time. Now, it depends on whether Huo Yuhao can find it.
If that doesn't work, then he can only do some "clumsy" performances.
However, things did not turn out to be the worst that Wang Nan had expected. When Huo Yuhao sat next to Wang Nan and his eyes swept over him, Wang Nan caught his eye, even though it was only a temporary pause.
"Brother Wang."
Time passed quickly as they talked, and in the blink of an eye the sun had already set. Just as Wang Nan said goodbye and walked out of the living room, Huo Yuhao suddenly called him.
"I want to ask you something." Seeing Wang Nan turn around, Huo Yuhao spoke.
Wang Nan sighed in his heart, always feeling that he was a little immoral, but he still stopped.
