Chapter 64 Taobao
Ji Yulong rushed back to the academy, he was already exhausted, he had exhausted the magic power and spiritual power in his body before, and he relied on physical strength to rush all the way.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the dormitory, I saw Tang Feiyu and Zhu Rong chatting at the door.
Seeing that Ji Yulong was back, Tang Feiyu laughed and said: "Brother Long, I am also a Erding monk now, and I have reached the foundation building stage at the age of seventeen, so I can say that I am the first person in Anlin City for so many years!"
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "Don't talk nonsense all day long, where did you put Brother Long? Isn't he also 17 years old to build the foundation, and he has been waiting for us for a month." And I am already at the peak of the first tripod, and I will be able to build the foundation to the second tripod in a few days. At most, you are one of the three people who are 17 years old in An Lincheng. ”
"Hehe, you guys keep a low profile for a while, let me be in the limelight in the academy, and then I can't hide it, you are exposing your strength in the foundation building period. ”
"Okay, if you're happy. Ji Yulong said indifferently: "I'm very tired now, can the two big guys let me go and rest first, and we'll talk tomorrow." ”
Only then did they find that Ji Yulong was dusty, and there were some small tears on his clothes, which seemed to have experienced a battle.
Zhu Rong hurriedly said, "Brother Long, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's all settled, don't ask, just act as if nothing happened, I'm going to practice, and tomorrow will be fine." ”
Saying that, Ji Yulong didn't care about the two of them, went directly to the door, and left the two outside.
After Ji Yulong sat down cross-legged, he immediately asked, "Red Lotus, when did you wake up?"
Honglian didn't answer, but appeared directly in the room, squatting in front of Ji Yulong, leaning forward, looking at each other, and the noses of the two almost touched together.
"Little Ji Ji, I haven't seen you for so long, do you miss me?" Honglian exhaled like an orchid, and as she spoke, the breath gently blew onto Ji Yulong's face, and a faint fragrance hit.
Ji Yulong, who was already full of concentration, suddenly turned red, swallowed his saliva, and involuntarily wanted to lean back.
But as soon as he moved, Honglian grabbed the clothes on his chest, pulled him back, touched his nose lightly and then separated, Honglian's face was also slightly red, but she quickly recovered, glared at Ji Yulong and said, "What are you hiding? Are you still shy? I was seen by you the first time we met, are you still shy?"
Thinking of the scene of the first meeting, Ji Yulong's heart couldn't help but beat faster, and his lower body reacted slightly, looked at Honglian embarrassedly, and said in a low voice: "This... Ahem... A little unaccustomed. ”
"You haven't answered my question yet. ”
"Yes, yes!"
"What do you want? Or do you want me to teach you how to cultivate?"
Ji Yulong was a little depressed, this must not be answered like this, but how to say it?
After hesitating for a moment, Ji Yulong replied tentatively: "No, no, I just miss you, I won't get used to it if you don't have a day." ”
Honglian's face was slightly red, she let go of Ji Yulong, sat back, and said coquettishly: "Flamboyant tongue!"
After separating some distances, Ji Yulong finally relaxed a little and wiped the sweat from his forehead, if he continued like this, he would be ugly.
It looks like it's passed, it's really tough.
Looking at Ji Yulong, who breathed a sigh of relief, Honglian secretly scolded herself: Fool.
However, Honglian didn't care anymore, and said with a smile: "Actually, I woke up a long time ago, and I had already recovered when you started to learn talismans." ”
"Then why haven't you contacted me all the time, so I don't have the confidence to live this time. ”
"That's why I didn't contact you. Honglian Zhengse said: "As long as I am here, you will always rely on me, and you will not have so many scruples and cautions in doing things." ”
"I found that during the period when I was away, you acted a lot more cautiously, even if it was the last time you crossed the level to face the green scale python in the foundation building period, you did not do a good job, and in the end you did not reach a desperate situation, and there is still a hole card of Shennong Ding. ”
"If it weren't for the strength of my opponent this time, I wouldn't have appeared. ”
Ji Yulong frowned slightly and thought about it, it seemed like this, Honglian was not there, and he was much more cautious than before in doing everything, and he thought about it more.
"So in the future, unless you really reach the desperate situation of life and death, I won't make another move. Honglian said seriously: "Including your friend in a desperate situation, I will not come to the rescue, since you choose the path of cultivation, you must be prepared to face death at all times." In the future, you will be responsible for your own decisions, and if something happens, then I can't blame me. ”
Ji Yulong looked helpless, thinking that his backer had returned, and he could wave to his heart's content again.
Now it seems that he is disillusioned, and he still has to get up.
"This matter is decided!" Honglian directly clapped down.
Ji Yulong thought to himself: "I'm the master, don't you need my consent?"
"Do you have an opinion?" asked Honglian unkindly.
"No, absolutely not!" Ji Yulong dared to object.
Honglian regained her smile and said, "That's good, do you remember the extracurricular homework I left for you before I fell asleep?"
"Well, I remember. ”
"Then tell me about it now. ”
Ji Yulong also became serious, and said solemnly: "I thought about it for a long time and figured it out. At that time, your burst of cultivation had already overwhelmed the pilot that day, and your spells and control were stronger than the opponent's, but in the end, the opponent still ran away. ”
"I think it should be that she has too many magic weapons, at the beginning she used thirty-six copper plate spirit weapons, and also formed a defensive formation around her body, the giant turtle she released should be a spirit beast she domesticated, if it weren't for these, she might not be able to resist your three moves. And the last two spirit runes she used were also the key to her escape, otherwise even if he had more magic weapons, he wouldn't be able to last long. ”
"Well, it looks like you've really thought it through. Honglian nodded with satisfaction: "At that time, the strength of that person herself was really weak, but she used a lot of magic weapons, and I didn't have any magic weapons, so naturally I was very disadvantaged, otherwise as long as there was a magic weapon that could disrupt the power of space, then she would not be able to escape." ”
"Now you should know the importance of those miscellaneous items, a strong monk is indispensable for all kinds of powerful magic weapons, including spirit weapons, spirit runes, spirit pills, spirit arrays and spirit beasts. ”
Ji Yulong nodded and said, "I understand, all I have started to learn talisman making, only talisman making is simpler." Practicing everything else requires a lot of special materials, which are hard to find in Anlin. ”
"It's good that you understand, the aura here is really too bad, it affects the cultivation speed too much, just wait for you to change the environment and then improve your cultivation, you can calm down and learn the basics of miscellaneous items recently, and lay a foundation." ”
"Hmm. ”
With a plan, Ji Yulong began to cultivate and recover today's consumption.
......
The wooden dragon was killed, and the news was not spread immediately, so there was still calm in Anlin City.
However, soon someone seized the city lord's mansion with a warrant from the Great Qianguo Supervision Yuan, and all the cadres in the city lord's mansion were taken into custody and subjected to strict examination.
And the city lord's personal guard, Qinglongwei, was also surrounded by the Black Tiger Army at the same time, and everyone, including the commander of the Jindan period, was imprisoned and secretly examined by the Black Tiger Army.
For a while, there was a rumor in the city, and all the families and business houses were dormant, not daring to act rashly in the slightest, for fear of being implicated in this sudden turmoil.
At this time, it was already the third day after the death of the wooden dragon, and it was rumored in the entire Anlin City that the wooden dragon had committed treason, so he was beheaded by a powerful monk, and now everyone in the entire city who had anything to do with the wooden dragon was censored, and the entire Anlin City high-level people fell into a panicked mood.
Of course, this kind of thing has nothing to do with the common people, and the high-ranking city lord has nothing to do with them, so on the contrary, the lives of ordinary people have not been affected.
Of course, there are exceptions, that is, Xingbao Pavilion, which is still operating as usual and doing brisk business. With the strength and background of Xingbao Pavilion, he naturally got the rumors and knew what was going on, as long as he didn't mess around, he wouldn't be implicated.
Outside the Xingbao Pavilion, there was still a lot of traffic, and Ji Yulong stood alone at the door of the Xingbao Pavilion, looking at the resplendent Xingbao Pavilion hall, with some emotion.
This can be regarded as a spendthrift of money, and the transaction volume in this Star Treasure Pavilion is nearly one million, and it feels good to be rich, but unfortunately he will soon become a poor egg again.
After entering the Xingbao Pavilion, he did not go directly to the second floor, but walked around the stalls on the first floor.
Walking around here is like a treasure hunt, the dazzling array of items can dazzle your eyes, and it is still very rewarding to find the opportunity to find a leak in these real and fake goods. Even if you don't have the ability to pick up the slack, you can find an item you like, and haggling is a pleasure.
It's a pity that Ji Yulong is still young, he doesn't think about these at all, he wanders from stall to stall, just so that he can spend less money to buy more things, saving money is the most important thing.
As for the fun, the sense of accomplishment, or wait until you have more money to spend.
"Boss, how do you sell these few spirit gathering grasses?" Ji Yulong pointed to a few spirit grasses on the stall and asked the price.
"500 gold coins per plant, this is a top-grade spirit gathering grass, it is definitely worth the money. The boss behind the stall replied with a smile, he hasn't opened today, and it is rare for someone to ask the price, so he is naturally very enthusiastic.
Ji Yulong said with an exaggerated expression: "No, it's so expensive, the Gathering Spirit Grass in the ordinary store is only 400 gold coins per plant, and you are too expensive." ”
"How can it be the same, what store can buy such a high-quality spirit gathering grass as mine, looking at this quality, the vintage, it is definitely the best choice, and it has only been picked back for a few days..."
The boss began to brag endlessly about how good his Gathering Spirit Grass was, making people feel that the most common spirit grass of the lower level of the Yellow Order was better than the Spirit Grass of the upper Xuan Rank, and it would be a big fool if he didn't buy it.
Ji Yulong shook his head helplessly, he was still too tender, and bargaining was really not a project he was good at.
"Boss, don't say it, 450 gold coins per plant, I want ten beads. ”
Big customer, the boss's eyes lit up, but he didn't let go, and said with a sad face: "This can't be done, my receipt price is 450." So sell it for 480 gold coins a plant. ”
"460, that's the price, forget if you don't sell it. ”
Seeing that Ji Yulong was very resolute, he said decisively: "Okay, I don't think I can make money, let's make friends, take care of my business more in the future, my name is Lao Wang, come to me if you need anything in the future, even if I don't have it, I have a way to find it for you." ”
After taking out the gold coin card to pay, he put away the Gathering Spirit Grass, and secretly calculated that it would cost at least 500 gold coins to buy ten beads of Gathering Spirit Grass on the second floor, which can be regarded as saving 400 gold coins, and it takes a little bit of tongue to save 400 gold coins, which is not bad.
Ji Yulong looked at Lao Wang and couldn't help but say, "Boss, are you familiar with the bosses of the two families next door?"
"Familiar, we've been doing business here for so many years, so I'm naturally familiar with it, little brother, have you taken a fancy to their things?"
"No, just casually ask, are you familiar with their family?"
"This is quite familiar, and everyone occasionally calls the family to get together. Lao Wang looked at Ji Yulong with some doubts, "Little brother, are you asking about what's the matter?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I just want to remind them to eat less green food and wear less green clothes, but think about it, forget it, it's been so many years, it's too late, forget it, I'll go first, goodbye, Lao Wang." ”
With that, Ji Yulong turned around and left.
"This young man is so strange, he is so generous, but his brain doesn't seem to be very good, and he asks some strange questions. Boss Wang watched Ji Yulong leave, and Nan Nan muttered to himself: "I made a lot of money this time, and I will buy a few spirit stones for the godson of the Lao Lin family next door later, so that he can cultivate faster." ”
Ji Yulong is ready to go directly to the second floor, it's too tiring to buy things on the first floor, there are still a lot of things to buy today, let's go directly to the second floor, it's more expensive, at least the quality is guaranteed.
"Little Ji Ji, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not. Red Lotus suddenly jumped out.
"Red Lotus, you say, there is nothing we can't say between us. "DifficultySeeing that Honglian is so polite, when did she not say whatever she wanted?
"Okay, then I said, two of the beads in the Spirit Gathering Grass you just bought are fake. Red Lotus's words were tinged with some schadenfreude.
"How is it possible?" Ji Yulong immediately stopped, opened the package, and checked, can the Gathering Spirit Grass be fake?
Ji Yulong naturally didn't believe it, and the Ten Beads Gathering Spirit Grass looked at it one by one, and found no problems.
But as he looked at it for a long time, Ji Yulong suddenly discovered something, there were two beads of spirit gathering grass that seemed to be a little different from the other eight beads.
Those two beads look a little brighter, yes, a little brighter.
Picking up the two beads of Gathering Spirit Grass, Ji Yulong observed it carefully, this Gathering Spirit Grass does also contain aura, and it is not weak, but it feels that this aura is a little mixed and not so pure.
Rubbed his fingers on the spirit gathering grass, forehead... Why is there an extra layer of crystalline powder on the fingers, which is... This is spirit stone powder!
"Grass!" Ji Yulong couldn't help but burst into foul mouth.
This grass is a dogtail grass, which looks very similar to the Gathering Spirit Grass, but it does not have a trace of aura, and anyone who has cultivated can distinguish between the Dogtail grass and the Gathering Spirit Grass on whether it contains spiritual energy.
Therefore, Ji Yulong did not suspect that there was a dogtail grass in this spirit gathering grass just now, after all, the dogtail grass has no aura.
But as I can imagine, this unscrupulous old king actually grinded the spirit stone into a fine powder and smeared it on the dogtail grass, and put it together with the real spirit gathering grass, and after a long time of contact, it was naturally contaminated with some spiritual energy, and it was impossible to see it if he didn't distinguish it carefully.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Ji Yulong complained helplessly.
Honglian said as a matter of course: "I'm reminding you that you are careless again, you must be careful and cautious in doing things, this time you are just losing a few hundred gold coins, and next time you may lose your life." ”
Ji Yulong said a little dejectedly: "Okay, I remember, this is another lesson, just now that Lao Wang is obviously an ordinary person, and he actually deceived himself into a foundation building period monk, you really can't underestimate people." ”
The first floor of this Xingbao Pavilion pays attention to the balance of money and goods, and the two have nothing to do with each other, so even if Ji Yulong finds out that he has been deceived, there is no way, Xingbao Pavilion is absolutely protective of the transactions on the first floor, and no one is allowed to rely on force and bully others.
"The old king next door is really not a thing. Ji Yulong scolded with a wry smile, if you are pitted, you will be pitted, let's go to the second floor.
"Don't worry, there's something very interesting up ahead, you go over and take a look. Honglian stopped Ji Yulong and seemed to have found something good.
"Where is it?" Ji Yulong suddenly became interested, what can be seen by Red Lotus is definitely not simple.
"Go ahead and go five stalls, the one on the left, and it's all the one that sells groceries. ”
Ji Yulong walked forward, a little expectant.
The fifth, on the left-hand side, uh, that's this one, it's all rags.
Squatting down and looking at the things sold in the stall, Ji Yulong felt a little unbearable to look at directly.
Dry grass, half a piece of jade, a tile, a root......
What are these things, and can they be considered commodities?
"The broken half-cut stick. ”
With the previous experience, Ji Yulong has more eyes this time.
Picking up the dry grass, I wonder if there is still a lot of aura?
An old man at the back of the stall, dressed in a long shirt and with a long white beard, was meditating with his eyes closed, and seemed to be not very concerned about the business in the stall.
As soon as Ji Yulong picked up the grass, the old man opened his eyes and said, "Xuan-rank intermediate elixir cultivation spirit grass, don't move if you don't buy it." ”
Forehead... Ji Yulong was a little speechless, he didn't pick it up and look at it, how did he know if he bought it or not, did this old man do this business?
"What's the price?"
"Ten thousand gold coins. The old man casually quoted a price.
"Ten thousand gold coins?" Ji Yulong said speechlessly: "Old man, your price is too high. ”
The old man said with a disdainful expression: "This is still high, this is a Xuan-level mid-level elixir! Selling you 10,000 gold coins is still high?"
Ji Yulong said helplessly: "Xuan-level mid-level elixir, let alone 10,000 gold coins, even if it is 100,000 gold coins at auction, it is not high, but it is a intact elixir." This spirit cultivation grass can't even be regarded as a defective product, it can only be regarded as a residual product, and it is almost completely scrapped. ”
Hearing this, the old man smiled slightly embarrassedly, coughed lightly and said, "No matter how you say it, this is also a Xuan-level mid-level elixir, you make a price." ”
"500 gold coins. ”
", don't come here to make trouble, at least 5,000 gold coins, don't sell any less. ”
"Then 1,000 gold coins?"
"What are you dreaming? In this way, seeing that you are still a young man, I, as an elder, will give you a little loss and sell you for 3,000 gold coins. ”
"It's still too expensive, or else, 2000 gold coins, I'll buy it, and give me two more tiles and that stick, do you think it's okay?"
The old man replied: "That's not good, this is not a tile, this is all artifact fragments, this is not a wooden stick, this is a branch of the Shenmu Fusang tree, each of which is sold for 10,000 gold coins, how can I give it to you!"
"Uh... Then send one less, I'll want this one. Ji Yulong picked up the wooden stick, shook it, and looked at the old man.
The old man hesitated, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and said bitterly: "Then it will be cheaper for you, and if you sell you, you will take a big advantage." ”
Ji Yulong smiled, didn't speak, directly took out the gold coin card, traded 2,000 gold coins, picked up the things, thanked him and left.
didn't stay any longer, Ji Yulong went directly to the second floor.
Seeing Ji Yulong walking away, the people in the other stalls immediately said: "Lao Zhou, it's okay, I made a lot of money today and pit a little doll." ”
"Yes, that little doll looks like a chick, and I'm still thinking about how to make a fortune from him, but I didn't expect to be taken by you. ”
"It's still Lao Zhou's image of a master in the world, and when he sits there, people believe in everything he sells. ”
Lao Zhou also happily hugged his fists everywhere and said happily: "Hahaha... It's just luck, thanks to everyone's care. ”
As he spoke, he took out two tattered things from the baggage behind him, placed them on the vacancy of the stall, and began to close his eyes and meditate.
These Ji Yulong don't know, even if they do, they will only laugh at it, how can Xia Worm talk about ice?
How could a group of mortals without a foundation discover the secret in this stick.
Although he didn't know it himself, and he had just been cheated by mortals......
went up to the second floor, Ji Yulong was not verbose, and directly found the manager and listed all the things he wanted.
The low-level and intermediate-level elixirs of the Yellow Order can be found are all one, the low-level black iron of the Yellow Order, one thousand catties of brass, one thousand pieces of rune paper of the low-level Yellow Order, ten catties of cinnabar, one hundred drops of the essence blood of various demon beasts of the Yellow Order, and thirty-six low-level array flags of the Yellow Order.
The manager was a little shocked at the time, these things were very valuable, and even the entire Star Treasure Pavilion might not have so many things. It's not that these things are too precious, but there are really not so many people who buy these things in Anlin City, and there will naturally not be so many stocks in the Star Treasure Pavilion.
The manager hesitated for a moment and said: "There is no problem with the elixir and black iron, but the brass is only 500 catties, the rune paper is only 500 pieces, the cinnabar is there, and the demon beast essence blood is barely enough, but there are not so many flags in this array, there are only 12, if you want more, you need to transfer the goods." ”
It's really that there are not a few people in this Anlin City who know how to form formations, who are these array flags sold to? The 12 array flags of the Star Treasure Pavilion are also kept for backup.
"Okay, then you can calculate how many gold coins there are. Ji Yulong frowned slightly, the small place of Anlin City really lacks everything, and it is still convenient to go to Jiangnan City.
The manager took out a pen and paper and began to write: "The elixir Yellow Rank Low 47 plants are 500 gold coins each, 11 Yellow Rank Intermediate plants are 2000 gold coins each, a rune paper is 30 gold coins, cinnabar is 1000 gold coins a catty, 200 gold coins a drop of essence blood, and a 3000 gold coin of the array flag, a total of 126,500 gold coins, I will wipe you a zero, 126,000 gold coins." ”
Ji Yulong was stunned for a moment, this?
Is it so expensive?
How much money do you have? It seems that I still have about 140,000 gold coins, right?
Fortunately, Xingbao Pavilion doesn't have that much inventory, otherwise it would be embarrassing today.
Ji Yulong couldn't help but be a little lucky, fortunately, it seems that the next time I buy something, I still have to ask the price first, I really am not a local tyrant, and I am really not qualified to pretend.
I thought about buying things without asking the price, but I didn't expect it to be almost a tragedy.
Seeing Ji Yulong's face constantly changing, the manager couldn't help frowning, it can't be that I'm playing tricks, right?
Seeing that the manager's face was a little unsightly, Ji Yulong reluctantly took out the gold coin card and handed it over: "Transfer it."
The manager's face immediately filled with smiles and he said respectfully, "Okay, sir, you wait a minute. ”
Soon after the transfer, Ji Yulong took the gold coins and looked at them, checked them, and there were only more than 17,000 gold coins left, and sighed silently, his heart really hurt, but he wanted to maintain his image and couldn't cover it.
Pretending to be indifferent, he said, "Send it to the house at No. 362 West Street, I'll wait for you there." ”
"Okay. ”
Nodding, Ji Yulong turned around and left, he was not afraid that Xingbao Pavilion would hack his money, in broad daylight, Xingbao Pavilion could not do this kind of thing.
Ji Yulong quickly walked out of the Star Treasure Pavilion and walked towards his house.
Ji Yulong hadn't been to that house since the last time Candle Hanxing was kidnapped, and he was afraid that he would unconsciously think of that little heel with bright eyes. I just kept practicing in the academy.
"Who is that person?" When Ji Yulong went out, Lu Wan'er, who happened to be passing by, stared at his back and asked the manager who was sending him out.
"Steward Lu, I don't know who he is, I only know that his surname is Ji, and he should be a student of Xiuxian Academy. He just bought a bunch of various resources and asked me to send them to the house at 362 West Main Street. ”
"Well, then you have someone look it up, that person's information. ”
"Okay, I'll check it out right away. ”
Who is this person, I feel that this back is so familiar, Lu Wan'er looked at Ji Yulong, who had already walked away, frowned, and tried to recall.
