Chapter 66: Buying Magic Instruments
The car drove to the foot of a hill on the outskirts and stopped.
It's deserted, there are no people around, and there's only one road leading to it.
Yan Ming got out of the car and looked around, it was eleven o'clock in the evening.
Lingshi generally chooses to open during this time period, and does not close until the rooster crows.
Although it was summer now, standing here, Yan Ming felt a chill for no reason.
Ling Xiao and the others also got out of the car.
"Follow me," Ling Xiao said.
Yan Ming followed.
The group walked on a quiet path, the road was a little muddy, and the mud stained the legs of Yan Ming's trousers.
He looked at both sides of the road, there were a lot of graves, but most of them didn't even have a tombstone, and a few of them were covered by weeds.
Apparently no one has been here for a long time.
In such a place, no normal person would choose to come here in the middle of the night, and those who can come here are not normal people.
There are crows chirping in the trees, adding to the terrifying atmosphere here.
The wind rustled the leaves, and the further you walked in, the more cold it became.
Ling Xiao stopped, he took out a few masks and distributed them to the three of them.
"There are a lot of rules in the Spirit City, and there are a lot of people with bad intentions, although they don't dare to do it in the Spirit City, but it's hard to say when they get out of the Spirit City, so it's very important to put on a mask to cover up your identity" He said to Yan Ming.
Yan Ming took a black mask and put it on, "Is this the entrance to Spirit City?"
Ling Xiao nodded, and in front of them was a narrow cave that was less than a meter wide.
The cave was pitch black, and it was impossible to see what was inside.
"Let's go, let's go in"
Ling Xiao walked in the front, followed closely by Yan Ming.
Walking into this cave, he suddenly remembered the fragment in the Peach Blossom Spring, which was extremely narrow at the beginning, and only then did he understand people.
The cave is not wide, and the height is naturally not high, so you have to bend down when you walk in, otherwise you will easily hit your head.
The further back you go, the more spacious it becomes.
At the end of the cave is a large open space, and not far away there is a stone archway similar to the ancient one, which looks very atmospheric.
Under the torii stood several people dressed in black, their eyes always fixed on the passers-by.
Everyone here was wearing masks, and many of them were dressed in strange ways, and Yan Ming once thought that he had come to some kind of masquerade ball.
The four of them walked up to the man in black, Ling Xiao pointed at Yan Ming, and at the same time took out a silver card, "This little friend is here for the first time today, please make it convenient."
The man in black looked at Yan Ming, "Well, you come with me to register"
He followed the man in black to the side, only to see a computer and a fingerprint device on a table.
The man in black quickly tapped on the keyboard while asking Yan Ming's basic information.
"Okay, a verification code will be sent to your phone later, you can take a look" said the man in black.
Soon, a text message was sent, and after Yan Ming said the verification code, he recorded his fingerprints, and then received a copper-yellow card, which was not the same as the one Ling Xiao had before.
"You keep this card, you will need a card to verify your identity when you enter the Spirit City in the future, and since you are entering the Spirit City for the first time, there are rules for our Spirit City in this book, please don't try to break these rules," the man in black reminded.
"Good" Yan Ming took a book that was not too thin from the hand of the man in black.
"Oh, by the way, dear, you'll receive a customer service questionnaire later, remember to give a good review!" said the man in black with a smile.
"Uh, do you want to praise this too?"
"Of course, it's about our performance"
“……”
After getting the card, Yan Ming followed Ling Xiao and they officially entered the Spirit City.
"Hey, Brother Ling, why is my card copper-yellow and yours silver?" he asked.
Ling Xiao replied: "The cards here are divided into four levels, according to the color, they are divided into copper yellow, silver white, red gold, and diamond blue, each card can get different benefits in Ling City.
For example, my silver card, you can get a 20% discount when you buy things in the official store of Lingshi, but your card doesn't have it, and each card wants to be upgraded to a higher-level card.
You need to complete certain conditions, which are more demanding, and you also need the cardholder to have a certain strength to issue the corresponding card, these rules are written in the book you hold in your hand. ”
"I see."
The buildings in Lingshi are all of ancient type, and they look full of charm.
The red lanterns are hung high, the blue bricks and stones are paved, and the goods on the roadside are dazzling all the way.
"Don't miss it when you pass by, the goods in our store only need a thousand yuan, and a thousand yuan can be taken home by the way, the opportunity is rare, the opportunity is rare!" said the owner of a small stall wearing a pig's head mask.
His shout attracted a lot of customers.
"Let's go and have a look," Fang Xu pulled everyone to the stall.
Seeing that there were more and more customers gathered in front of the stall, the vendor owner shouted louder.
Fang Xu walked through the crowd and squeezed to the front, "Hey, boss, how do you sell these things?"
The boss said: "Little brother, as long as you like the things in my store, no matter which one, it only costs a thousand yuan."
Fang Xu glanced at the goods sold by the boss, most of them were beautifully crafted magic weapons, according to the price of the spirit market, it was not a problem that these goods were worth tens of thousands of yuan.
But now a thousand dollars can be taken, which is obviously not quite right.
"Boss, are these products of yours real?" Fang Xu asked with a peachwood sword.
"Of course it's true, we are doing small business, the most taboo is falsehood, so little brother, if you buy a fake, you can come to me, fake one pays ten" The boss patted his chest and promised.
Fang Xu said with a smile: "This is what you said."
"Of course, little brother, you can choose that one if you like it."
Yan Ming stood beside Fang Xu and looked at the handful of dust he was holding in his hand.
"Xiao Yan, how is it?, does it have a feeling of being a master?" Fang Xu said with a smile waving the dust.
"You just pull it down, it's good to laugh so obscenely, it's not bad if you don't be treated as a thief," Yan Ming said with extreme disgust.
The boss gave a thumbs up and said, "Little brother, you look at the way you take this dust, you are simply an immortal in the world, and I tell you,
This dust whisk is a big treasure, a treasure weapon to drive away evil and avoid evil, ordinary people can't use it at all, and only a master like you can use it, you see how good it is with you."
Listening to the boss's rainbow fart, Yan Ming rolled his eyes.
"Hehe, I'll just say, how can a man like me be so handsome and compelling, how can a man like a fairy be obscene? Xiao Yan, you are obviously jealous" Fang Xu touched his sideburns angrily.
"You are a second goods, you will believe what people say, bring me your dust"
"Here, be careful, don't break it"
Yan Ming took the dust, and his system immediately jumped out of the dust.
【Encyclopedia】
Dusting: No special ability, can sweep dust
Grade: Defective
"I think if you spend a thousand yuan to buy a handful of dust, it is better to spend more than a dozen yuan to buy a feather duster," Yan Ming said.
"What do you mean?"
"It means that this dust whisk is fake, it's not so godly, you buy it back and use it to sweep the ashes, it may be a bit useful" Yan Ming threw the dust whisk to Fang Xu.
"Walter, is this fake?"
Fang Xu looked confused, when he touched the dust, he clearly felt that there was an aura attached to it, why did it suddenly become a fake?
"Don't talk nonsense, what's fake, what I'm selling is real, you feel these magic weapons, are they more real than real gold," the boss argued loudly.
Yan Ming picked up a magic weapon casually, and the system gave the information of the magic weapon again, which was the same as the previous dust, it was all garbage.
But the others didn't think so, and someone in the crowd said, "Hey, you kid aren't trying to trick everyone into saying it's fake, and then buy it all by yourself, right?
Soon someone chimed in.
Ling Xiao frowned, "Brother Yan, are you sure this is fake?"
"Of course," Yan Ming is still very confident in his system.
"But I look at these magic artifacts as if they are real, how can you see that?" Ling Xiao asked curiously.
"Ancestral methods, must not be leaked, but I'm curious, Brother Ling, how do you think these magic weapons are real?"
Ling Xiao explained.
It turns out that ordinary soul slayer judges the authenticity of a magic weapon, usually based on a look and a touch.
Look, is to see whether the device is broken and there are traces of repair, touch, is to feel whether there is aura on the magic weapon, what is the material.
Intact magic weapons will have their own aura, which can be distinguished by a slightly more Taoist soul slayer.
Through these two simple methods, you can judge the authenticity of most of the magic weapons, of course, in addition to looking at it yourself, you can also find a special magic appraiser to help identify.
Appraisers naturally have a deeper understanding of magic weapons, and powerful appraisers can know at a glance whether this magic weapon is real or fake, what it does, and what its grade is.
However, appraisers generally charge quite a lot of money, and sometimes they ask them for enough money to buy a good magic weapon.
"Little brother, you leave quickly, I don't care about your slander of me, hurry up, you are not welcome here" The boss said.
"That's it, you second-class dealer, hurry up, don't delay Lao Tzu to buy magic weapons"
"You actually said that such a good magic weapon was fake, I knew that you were uneasy and kind"
Many people in the crowd, driven by well-intentioned people, began to insult Yan Ming.
Yan Ming, who didn't want to cause trouble, planned to leave, but he really couldn't stand the insults of a group of second-class goods.
"Didn't you say I lied to you?
He picked up the whisk he wanted to buy before, and looked at it carefully, when suddenly, his gaze rested on the pattern on it.
There is a talisman engraved in this pattern, and the charms that were rewarded by the system before have an introduction to this talisman.
