35.18% Insanity Of A Reverend Reader / Chapter 18: Obsessed with Gu and traps

Chương 18: Obsessed with Gu and traps

My actual birthday is April next year. That's right, I am technically 1 year behind my classmates. It doesn't matter much, such shit happens sometimes.

Fang Yuan and Zheng will be turning 16 on November 11th and me and my brother will turn 16 on the 7th of April. Can't believe it has almost been 16 years since I came to this world. I have accomplished so much, but it is still so little and insignificant. I can fight off thousand beast kings using my physical strength, so what? There are people who can kill those ten thousand beast kings with a flick of their wrist! I am still too weak and insignificant.

The day passed quickly and what did I do? Everything I could! I had to use 400 primeval stones to buy a bronze skin Gu worm and combined the bronze and rock skin Gus into an iron skin Gu. That cost me an entire 7 Gu points! I also got rewarded another little light Gu and made a moonglow Gu, which cost me 3 Gu points.

Overall, my strength went up quite a bit. I got rank 2 defensive and offensive Gus and a rank 1 movement Gu. I need to slow down my cultivation now, or the higher-ups will get suspicious of me. I won't be refining a four flavors liquor worm any time soon, so might as well. I'll mostly focus on making money and fix my talent situation.

A single week has passed and Fang Yuan came once again to my treehouse. He didn't wait around for me and just came up on his own. He didn't stand on the trapdoor, though. Kinda wish he did.

I walked outside my cultivation room and opened the door. "Fang Yuan, I know you are broke, I don't know what inheritance you found or whatever the hell you are doing, but I am not going to give you a boar strength Gu! If you want to borrow my liquor worm, then tough luck. I am not renting the damn thing!"

Fang Yuan looked at me, a bit displeased and sighed "I have a proposition for you. I wish to borrow the white boar strength Gu and I will give you some valuable information in exchange." I scratched my head and thought about it "What kind of delicate is this information of yours?"

"It is quite valuable for you and your brother." I nodded and he said "There is going to be a beast tide soon. It will be large enough to even shake the foundation of Gu Yue and the other 2 clans." I nodded at him and said "I see!"

Without a second thought, I pulled the second lever near my door and down went Fang Yuan! "Haha! They called me a madman for installing a second trapdoor! Who's is the idiot now! It paid off and in such a big way! Suck it Chun Jack!"

I closed the door and went back inside, expecting Fang Yuan to leave out of humiliation, but I forgot I was dealing with THE Fang Yuan. I opened the door and saw Fang Yuan standing in a different location. I narrowed my eyes and said "You are lucky I haven't instilled a third trapdoor yet. Or have I!"

Fang Yuan heard a pulling sound and jumped left. The only thing that happened was a small part of the wall rotated a bit and the word "GOTCHA!" written on paper appeared.

Anyone who says I wasted the 3 days it took me to set up these traps can go and cry me a river! They worked even on Fang Yuan and exactly according to keikaku. Is it keikaku? Doesn't matter! Haven't seen memes for 16 years, almost. Main point, I got him!

"Okey I'll stop messing around! You wanna come inside and ACTUALLY make a decent proposition for the white boar strength Gu or do I have to kick you out... USING THIS TRAP!"

Fang Yuan stared at me with his dead eyes, thinking I was bluffing. Well... I kinda was, but he didn't know that! "Sigh! You can come in." Fang Yuan sat down in our living room and was a bit startled. "Isn't this a kitchen set from modern day earth? Could it be he reincarnated here like I did and isn't from the future?" He should be thinking something along those lines, but this is Fang Yuan we are talking about. He is too sly to figure out with just a smart head.

"I won't screw around or waste time. I need the white boar strength Gu and the liquor worm Gu. They would be extremely useful to me. If you give those Gu worms to me, I will owe you a favour and I swear to return it whenever I can." I looked at him with one eyebrow raised.

Holy shit this guy is shameless! He is trying to trick me into giving my Gu to him, so he can instantly refine them using the stupid cicada and never give them back! What a bastard! I swear he never says a single honest word. I should just stop interacting with him, but the Fang Yuan fan in me keeps begging me to help him and get the story back straight.

I sighed and said "Fang Yuan, I know for a fact you don't return favours! You even capitalized on the fact, that I don't want to kill you, for my own reasons. Someone as sly and indifferent minded as you won't ever return a favour, unless returning it would bring greater gain. In lay man's terms, I. Don't. Trust. You!

I am indeed planing to rent out the boar strength Gus, but I won't be giving it to you! Who knows, maybe you have some kind of refining method, that allows you to refine other peoples Gus instantaneously!"

Fang Yuan broke out into a laughter and said "That is quite impossible! Not even the elders know of such a method. How could I possibly know?" I laughed along with him "You are quite right about that! Still, I don't see any benefit in befriending a C grade trash. You got lucky and magically reached the medium first, but you are still a C grade! There is no worth in investing in you! And you don't have anything I don't have!"

Fang Yuan furrowed his brows and said "Don't you have a mortal you call a brother?" I scoffed at what he was implying and said "I have been personally raising and teaching him for nearly 10 years! His body is cultivated perfectly and he is worth my investment. He is also my sworn brother, so he is loyal. You, on the other hand, will willingly sell your brother if it brings you more benefit than loss! I see no point in investing in you!"

I am trying to make sure he thinks I have no sweet clue what his future is by completely denying him based on his current state. If I knew of his future, then I would try to tame him and invest in him as much as possible, but I don't, so I am not investing.

Him owing me favours is also shit someone from the future would use when he becomes a god! I do not know the future, Fang Yuan, and you cannot prove otherwise!

"Propose something worth my time now, or I will have to ask you to leave. No more I.O.U.s and other dumb shit! Propose something I need now or is worth me lending you one of my most prized possessions! If you can't, then..." I reached for a weird looking wooden plank on the floor with my foot.

Fang Yuan knew exactly what I meant and all he could was try his best to convince me with real benefits instead of empty promises.

"What can I propose? Even if I he knows I was a rank 6 in the future, he won't support me, as I am only a C grade and the likelihood of me reaching rank 6 in this lifetime is also extremely small. What can I offer him?" He is probably thinking along those lines.

A sudden idea came to him and he said "I will help you establish a shop, where you can sell temporary ownership of your boar strength Gus' and help you manage it." I laughed at that. That was a genius idea! So genius, I even thought of it a couple of weeks ago and put in a notice about it to the clan leader myself!

"That is truly a genius idea. Too bad I came up with it a lot earlier than you! My parents even agreed to let me use their house as my shop! All I am waiting for is my graduation, so I can complete the mission I was given and get the permit to do so!"

A resolute sigh escaped Fang Yuan's throat and he said "I am currently exploring the Flower Wine Monk's inheritance. I will share my rewards with you if you help me clear it and lend me the white boar strength Gu and the liquor worm Gu."

I smiled and said "That is more like it! I agree, but I have my own conditions! Number 1, I won't give lend you any Gu worms until I see the location. As you know, Flower Wine Monk was killed on the spot! He wouldn't have had enough time to set up an Inheritance, so I need proof. Number 2, I will lend you my liquor worm Gu, but I will keep the white boar strength Gu for my future shop. I will only lend you it by my going rate of 13 primeval stones per cultivation session with it! You will need to pay me the 325 primeval stones upfront! Unless you can do all of these things, I won't cooperate!"

Fang Yuan resolutely nodded and took me to the inheritance ground. I quietly followed him. We stood so close it was almost as if we were one person rather than two. We soon arrived at the spot and entered it. It was the exact same cave and there were no traps,p

"So this is the inheritance ground! That must be the monk himself. So, the records left in our clan's database were all wrong and lies! I wonder what happened to him? Doesn't matter, let's go looting." We quickly approached the boulder and I nodded in understanding "I see now. THIS is why you needed the white boar strength Gu. Humph! To have to use a Gu worm to lift this lump of earth, don't you feel shame! Watch as I move this without even stopping!"

I pushed the Boulder up and was done in less than a minute. My body has gotten a lot stronger since the last time I came here! Without a doubt, this boulder didn't stand a chance against me. I pushed it up and said "There we go! That was quite easy. To think the old fool wanted me to use a Gu worm for this! What a pathetic weakling!"

Fang Yuan quickly came up and saw the rank 3 earth treasure flower Gu. It opened as soon as he touched it and the Jade skin Gu appeared. I looked a bit stunned, but I nodded my head and didn't say anything. I already have a rank 2 defensive Gu, so I don't need a rank 1. "You can keep that thing. I have no use for it. You probably can't even feed it. Jade costs a lot and you can barely support yourself. Plus, you will attract too much attention if you buy jade stones. The white boar strength Gu can be explained through me, but jade skin Gu can't."

The third door suddenly opened up and a jade eye monkey jumped at my face and tried to claw me to death. I didn't even flinch and caught it's head in my hand and rock dust flew as I physically crushed it's skull into powder. The only traces of its head ever existing were the two jade eye left in my left hand. I looked into the cave full of such monkeys and said "I stand corrected. You can most definitely feed the little guy in your hands."

Fang Yuan showed no emotion and kept his abysmal gaze, as if nothing on this earth could shock him or bring him joy. How depressing. Maybe I will be like him when I turn 500, but I do not wish for that to happen. I might become indifferent to killing humans, but I do not want to lose my emotions.

"So, we have to kill our way through a cave of monkeys with weird eyes. Well, I don't feel like fighting them. I'll lend you the liquor worm and you can come to my shop and use the white boar strength Gu. I have already bought a small plot from the clan and am building the shop outside of the city. You can come and be our first customer once I am done with the construction and my permit mission gets approved."

Fang Yuan nodded and we left the cave. I lent him the liquor worm and we parted ways.

Fuck! Why am I helping him?! Obviously because I want the legendary Gu. What kind of Gu can attract Fang Yuan's attention? It must be extremely powerful and expensive!

Also, I highly doubt anything in Reverend Insanity comes at the cost of luck. It was most definitely some kind of scheme of a spy. That sounds more Reverend Insanity than someone getting lucky.

Fang Yuan would never be lucky enough to just randomly gain a legendary Gu, so I need Fang Yuan's help to unravel the scheme and acquire the legendary Gu!

If I throw cannon off too much, then I will never be able to get that legendary Gu and I don't even know the name of it to search it up in my shop. I most definitely need Fang Yuan for that!

He can do whatever he wants until I get enough Gu points to enslave him completely. Now I have a tight hold over his life. I can go and tell on him to the academy elder or clan leader and he will lose his life or be completely investigated 24/7. I am talking about the Flower Wine Monk's secret.

He is completely dancing on the palm of my hand and the next one to join him will be my inferior Bai Ning Bing! I'll dominate them all and make sure I come out on top!

MC doesn't know the "legendary Gu" is the All-out Effort Gu he randomly found in his system.

Chương 19: Business is booming

Me and my brother finished the construction of our shop a month or so ago and boy was it a big hit!

It was just a small 5 meter by 10 meters house with a lobby and 2 separate rooms just outside Gu Yue clan city. It is easy to access and easy to work.

Anyone can enter the rooms and use the Gu worm they booked for 20 minutes. Each session costs 13 primeval stones. Sadly, the place won't run itself and I have more important shit to do than sit around and welcome some dumb Gu masters.

We appointed some mortals as staff to do that shit for us! Their pay isn't bad either. The receptionist gets paid 6 primeval stones a month and the manager gets paid 10 and the escorts get paid 4.

Those might seem like low wages, but that pay is extravagant for mortals. Most mortals only need primeval stones to buy food and whatnot. A single mortal can live off of 1 primeval stone for an entire month! Imagine being paid enough to last you 10 months for just. They are probably going to be some of the richest mortals in the entire Gu Yue clan.

Of course, that measley pay is nothing compared to my income! Basically everyone wants an appointment! The total appointments they have to book is 50 to get the full benefits of our shop and almost everyone in our clan wants to use those Gus'. The shop is open from 8 am to 8 pm. Also, we don't have to hire security, which is the best part!

You think 13 per session is expensive, mortal? Well, it is three primeval stone off of being dirt cheap! A boar strength Gu sells for 500-650 primeval stones on the market, so imagine being able to cultivate it for 325 primeval stones. That is a 35% discount, minimum! I wanted to sell it for 20 per session, but I would be chastised and wouldn't get nearly as much traffic as I do now.

Some people don't need the strength these Gus' provide, but the service is so cheap, why shouldn't they give it a try? Each master of Gu in our clan will pay us 650 primeval stones to book appointments in our shop. We are already pre booked months in advance!

That is only one of the many reasons. The other is the reason we don't need to hire rank 2 Gu masters as guards. Everyone with an appointment signs a contract and agrees to become temporary guards!

Anyone who makes trouble in my shop will get 1) permanently banned 2) beaten down by all the Gu masters there 3) beaten up afterward by me or Chun Jack 4) won't receive their money back 5) have all of their appointments canceled 6) have the whole clan angry at their selfishness.

People call me stuff like "True son of the Gu Yue clan", "selfless young man" and "second hidden elder", which is quite weird now that I think about it.

I have made some connections over these appointments. Here is the funny part of being a huge business owner, I permabanned Fang Zheng for like a couple of weeks and then unbanned him, so now he is months away from his first appointment. Get pogged on boy!

Also, there is an ironclad rule of paying upfront. No one is allowed to book anything unless they pay upfront. You want to book 25 sessions, pay 325 upfront! You want all 50 sessions, pay 650 upfront!

The total amount of money we have made over the last month is one hundred and thirty thousand! That is a fuckton of money! The best part is people are calling me selfless for renting it for such a cheap price!

I have almost as much assets as the entire Mo clan from this one simple building! The success of this shop is mostly do to my brother's status.

The prideful and dumbass Gu masters think "A mortal has become so rich because of such Gus', why can't I?" and they go on to follow such a weird dream.

The only thing I am missing right now is the heavenly essence treasure lotus and my money making potential will peak!

Speaking of the heavenly essence treasure lotus, I am also going to steal it. Fuck the clan elder and any schemes I have against him! I prefer the mini spirit spring over a small victory, which will only bring me a little bit of self-satisfaction. I don't even care if Fang Zheng got the jade skin Gu at this point. I just want the lotus.

Also, Fang Yuan somehow got the 325 primeval stones and finished cultivating the strength of a boar. He wasn't given any more, though. I am not giving any extra appointments to him! We worked a lot to get the permit!

Ah, you wondering about the mission? Well, it was pretty easy... You want to know the specific details? Doesn't matter! It was so easy it isn't even worth mentioning!

I'd say the chances of Gu Yue clan resisting the beast wave has gone up tremendously because of this single shop! It is also a shop that will never go out of date!

The supply is so limited I control the entire market! Some elders feel displeased about this, seeing as I am a minor and they can't tax shit!

This is also another benefit of selling it for so cheap. I literally went out to the public and riled the- nope, I did a mission, that is all that happened! Like a certain incident, that happened at a certain square, we will sweep it under a rug and forget about how it all happened.

I am rich! With all of this wealth I had to buy a primeval storage Gu for 1.5k primeval stones. It can store 200K primeval stones and can be refined with a slow elder Gu to create the primeval elder Gu worm. The slow elder Gu costs 45 Gu points, so I can theoretically make a primeval elder Gu for only 60 Gu points, but I barely have 400 Gu points now!

A little light Gu is sold for 200 primeval stones and a moonlight Gu costs 350 primeval stones. I can basically buy a huge stock of moonlight Gus and sell them to my system, exchanging 15K or so primeval stones for my Fate Flipped Upside Down Gu.

Sadly, I don't think they are willing to sell me around 50 moonlight Gus' and I can't buy that many Gus' without looking a bit suspicious. I am not stupid!

Speaking of stupid, here is some really depressing facts about my shop. You remember tye tules I mentioned? The sad thing is, some people still cause trouble!

There ARE people actually dumb enough to cause trouble in my shop! That is a total bruh moment. Why the fuck would you cause trouble there? Pissing off the publicly acknowledged top of the 5 rising stars and a second hidden elder over what? How close your appointment is?

These boar strength Gu worms are a literal gold mine! Too bad Fang Yuan didn't take hold of such a huge profit opportunity when he got the black boar Gu. It would have been a bit less effective than right now, but it would make him rich.

Even if he or someone else wants to do that, then too bad! They aren't going to get that one either! I'll yoink it for myself and increase my brother's strength!

Maybe I should go and pre hunt the other boar King? I should probably do that before the beast tide begins. Well, it starts in like 5 or 7 days, so might as well wait a few days.

I basically ignored the year end battle assessment, as almost the entire village knows I am guaranteed to win, as I have been swinging my rank 2 dong around the village for quite a while.

I don't even want to or am required to participate. I still will, as I like humiliating people and Fang Yuan will begin doubting the information I have given him if I don't humiliate my next opponent.

My brother is on a different mission now! I told him to dig a gi-motherfucking-gantic hole near a certain place, which may or may not result in him connecting with the cave containing the heavenly essence treasure lotus. He thinks it is to trap the future wolf horde coming towards us and so do the rest of our clansmen!

People are paying really close attention to me these days. My brother connecting with the cave should happen around the time the end of year battle ends, so we will have enough time to finish digging that entrance, get the heavenly essence treasure lotus and bury the hole.

I have already made a giant trapdoor, so the entire city bought that excuse. Almost everyone in our city knows about my overly welcoming front door, so no one doubts it is going to be a gigantic pitfall trap! Reputation Gu strikes again!

The basic premise is this, giant round circle around 10 meters in diameter. The four cardinal points of it are interconnected with an emptied out middle and we have a 13 meter long iron pole and two 6 meter poles. It will be placed over the pit and covered by mud.

Once beasts start running across it, I will pull out the 13 meter long rod and the beasts will cause the, now, barely supported platform to tilt and slide them down into the giant pit, where I will lay down a bunch of explosive potatoes and BAM! Over 100 beasts slain by a simple trapdoor!

How have kings and other rules not though of such a trap before? It is ingenious and perfect! Nothing can go wrong! Ahem. I am getting a bit too excited to be honest. This excitement is the exact reason no one doubts me though, but It isn't meant to be a trap! It is my entrance to the forbidden grounds!

I have 3 traps at my house's doorstep and not even my brother knows how many inside it. If I am ever seen walking around with a rank 9 Gu worm, all I need to do is tell these people I need it for a trap and they will instantly let the matter go!

I had to buy a charred thunder potato mother Gu as well, which cost me like 6k primeval stones, but it was worth it.

I can't use it to dig out a hole. If beasts hear sounds of explosion, they are going to become highly unmotivated to go to that location. We need to dig and dig deep the old fashioned way!
