Chapter Forty-Eight: Buying a Charm
The two walked all the way, until they came to a fork in the road, and Jian Yunzi said goodbye. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Then, Chen Shen walked alone, spiraling up the stone steps on the edge of the cliff, and soon came to the center of the island.
There is only one straight street in the center of the island, but the streets are lined with shops of all sizes, and at least hundreds of them stretch to the end of the street. Outside the shops, the streets are full of monks walking back and forth, people coming and going, and it is not lively.
In addition to the same sect he met in the sect, Chen Shen saw so many monks for the first time, and when he saw such a pure, all-monked assembly, he inevitably felt new in his heart, and everything was new.
Standing in the middle of the street, Chen Shen looked around blankly for a while, his eyes were a little trance-like, and then he walked forward with the flow of people.
On both sides of the street, all the shops are neatly aligned, without a trace of axe carving, like a lined line, waiting for the inspection. Each shop exuded a faint aura, and it was obvious that someone had arranged a formation of aura condensation in the store. Outside the store, each signboard shines with a different brilliance, bright colors, dazzling eyeballs, and deeply attracts the attention of pedestrians. What's more, hang some charms, magic weapons and other samples at the door, without worrying about someone stealing them.
After wandering around, Chen Shen came to a shop where no one was around, and when he looked up, it was a shop that sold charms, and there was only an old man who seemed to be the owner of the shop, burying his head there, looking at the ledger in his hand.
Standing outside the store, Chen Shen thought for a while, stepped in, and planned to take a look, if there was a suitable one, just buy a few in case of emergency.
In the shop, the old man just glanced up when Chen Shen came in, and then continued to look down at himself, and did not come out to greet customers, which is probably one of the reasons why this shop has little business compared to other stores.
Seeing that the old man didn't react, Chen Shen looked around, and then his mind was hot, and he actually released his divine sense at the old man, intending to check the old man's cultivation. It's just that the divine consciousness released from the outside is like a mud cow entering the sea, and there is no reaction, I don't know if the old man has an item that isolates the divine consciousness from viewing, or if the cultivation realm is not bad.
"Boy, if you release your divine sense to check the realm of others every time you meet a monk, I guarantee that you will die a miserable death!" The old man stopped what he was doing, raised his head and glanced at Chen Shen, and said with a little anger.
"Senior, I hope you will forgive me. The kid came down the mountain for the first time and didn't know these rules. Seeing that the old man's expression was not good, Chen Shen first tightened his heart, and then said stupidly. After listening to the old man's words, he finally understood why he was warned by the other monks' divine senses when he released his divine consciousness before.
"No wonder you're so reckless." After listening to Chen Shen's explanation, the old man nodded, and the expression on his face eased.
"Feel free to see for yourself! All the charms I have here are here, and I can pick whatever I want. The old man said casually, lowered his head and continued to busy himself.
Seeing that the old man ignored his own meaning, Chen Shen walked slowly around the store. He found that although the shop was small and not frequented, there were many charms inside. From the low-level fireball technique, the earth wall technique, to the higher thunder and lightning charms, the golden light charm, everything is available. In addition to these, Chen Shen also found some charms with dazzling colors, exuding a faint coercion, which was estimated to be the best of the second-grade charms, or even a higher grade, but he checked the half-salary and found that he didn't know the specific names and uses.
"Senior, I don't know how to sell this accelerator charm?" In Chen Shen's hand, he was holding a white talisman, which was the acceleration talisman. Because he had been chased and killed too many times before, he had narrowly escaped every time, and he was extremely embarrassed, so he planned to buy a few in case of emergency.
"Five hundred lower grade spirit stones!" Hearing Chen Shen's question, the old man didn't raise his head and said directly.
"Why is it so expensive!" Hearing the old man's offer, Chen Shen opened his mouth and said in surprise. He still remembered that a second-grade talisman he had seen in the sect's trading hall only needed three hundred lower-grade spirit stones.
"Expensive? The charms in the old man's shop are all high-quality products, how can the charms sold by others be compared! Sensing Chen Shen's surprise, the old man finally put down the account book in his hand, straightened up, walked out of the counter, came to Chen Shen's face, and said angrily: "This acceleration talisman is made of high-grade talisman paper, which contains a large amount of aura, after use, it can increase the flight speed of monks below the Yuan Infant Stage by twice the duration, and the duration is one hour, at this price, I still calculate the cost price for you, and I still feel that I have lost it!" ”
Listening to the old man's words, Chen Shen was skeptical, so he injected an aura into the charm, intending to check it. With the input of the aura, Chen Shen only felt a majestic and vast aura gushing up, as if it was about to break through the rune paper and rush out. Seeing this scene, he hurriedly interrupted the input of the aura and retreated, understanding that what the old man said was not bad at all, although the price was a little darker.
"Senior, please give me ten of these charms." Sensing that the acceleration charm was indeed effective, Chen Shen no longer hesitated, took out five medium-grade spirit stones from the storage bag, and handed them over. Now that he is rich, this little money is not a problem, since it is useful to himself, it is better to buy it.
"Boy, the old man has some good charms here, you must be able to use them, but the price will be slightly higher, but I promise you will like it." Seeing Chen Shen's bold move, the old man's tense face also relaxed, his attitude became slightly better, and he introduced other charms to him.
Due to the old man's introduction, he pretended to be mysterious, and Chen Shen's original idea of leaving was put on hold for the time being, and he planned to take a look and make a decision.
I saw that in the old man's hand, there were five charms that looked extremely ordinary on the outside, which seemed to be just sketched with simple pen lines, and there was no magic in it.
Seeing Chen Shen look at it, the old man said with a little excitement: "These five talismans, but my pinnacle work, I carefully developed and created them according to the secret book in the door, and they have extraordinary power. This invisibility talisman, as long as it is activated and attached to the body, can stimulate the aura in it, making the whole person disappear without a trace, which can last for a quarter of an hour. This thundering talisman contains the power of thunder and lightning, as long as it is activated and hit, it can emit thunder and lightning in the sky, and those who are below the Jindan stage will die, even if they are Jindan stage monks, they will be seriously injured if they are not good. The other three charms, named Ice Arrow Talisman, Golden Sword Talisman, and Fire Dragon Talisman, have the same powerful lethality as the Thunder Talisman, and are a necessity for attacking enemies when walking outside. ”
After listening to the old man's account, Chen Shen was full of joy. At this time, what he lacked was the life-saving and attacking charms, the stronger the function, the better, and the spirit stone was secondary. However, he did not show the expression of ambition, but turned to look at the other charms, pretending not to be interested, so as not to be knocked on by the old man as a wronged leader.
"These five spells are more expensive, but they're practical! When you appear on the island at this time, you must be preparing to participate in the auction in three days! With your current strength, if you reveal your money at auction, you will inevitably be remembered, and if you encounter a strong enemy, you will inevitably encounter danger, and at that time, you will be in danger of falling. If you have these charms, you can catch your opponent off guard, whether it's a counterattack to kill the enemy, or to escape, it's just a gesture of raising your hand. Seeing that Chen Shen didn't seem interested, the old man continued.
"Senior, I don't know how many spirit stones you have in this spell?" After the old man finished speaking, Chen Shen pretended to hesitate for a while, and then showed a look of interest and asked.
"It's not much, it's just two medium-grade spirit stones." Seeing that Chen Shen finally moved, the old man breathed a sigh of relief without a trace, a smile rose on his face, and he said lightly.
"So expensive! Why don't you grab it! Although he knew that these charms were not cheap, Chen Shen didn't expect them to be so expensive, and the whole person was startled, shouted out of his voice, pretended to be angry, and walked towards the door.
"Boy, don't go!" Seeing that Chen Shen turned around and left, the old man quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed him.
"It's so expensive, I can't afford it, what do I do if I don't go!" Chen Shen turned his head and said angrily.
"The price can be negotiated! In this way, five charms, I will collect nine medium-grade spirit stones from you, plus five hundred lower-grade spirit stones. Seeing that Chen Shen was willing to talk, the old man spoke.
"Six medium-grade spirit stones." Chen Shen counteroffered.
"You're too ruthless, nine medium-grade spirit stones, you can't be less, I'm a third-grade charm." The old man smiled wryly.
"Seven medium-grade spirit stones." Chen Shen continued to bargain.
"Eight medium-grade spirit stones, plus five hundred lower-grade spirit stones, I won't sell any less!" Seeing that Chen Shen was endless, the old man blew his beard and glared.
"Okay, deal! Senior, please count them. Seeing that the old man's expression did not seem to be fake, Chen Shen took out the spirit stone and handed it over, causing the old man to mutter, saying that he had earned it.
Afterwards, Chen Shen put away the five charms and continued to walk inside, and when he left, there were more than a dozen second-grade attack charms in the storage bag.
