Chapter 97: A Chance Encounter with Jizo Flowers
Bidding farewell to Du Xiaoyong, Xingyun and the others also rested at this Shiyuan Inn.
The inn is richly decorated, the room layout is also very exquisite, and the corridors and stairs are also decorated with spirit stones, but the decorated spirit stones are the spirit stones used for gambling stones instead of the four spirit stones used as currency.
As a currency, each spirit stone is less than the size of a fist, and according to the weight and richness of the stored spiritual energy, it is divided into four types, the lower grade spirit stone, the middle grade spirit stone, the upper grade spirit stone, and the best spirit stone.
The spirit stone used in the gambling stone is not as pure as the currency spirit stone, it is often a large gray-brown stone, because it can breathe out the spiritual energy and is attributed to the spirit stone, which is different from the general stone, and this kind of spiritual stone can not store the spiritual energy in it, and the reason for the spiritual energy is mostly used to contain the things inside.
The spirit stone as currency is produced in the spirit stone mine, and the spirit stone used for gambling stones can be found almost everywhere, but as long as a stone can breathe out the spiritual energy, it can be moved into the spirit stone workshop, so the risk of gambling stones is very large, but there are still people who make a fortune from a stone.
The spirit stones used for decoration in the inn are all large pieces of spirit stones used for gambling stones, but the color is not the common gray-brown, but all kinds of colors, reddish-brown, grass green, inky black, it looks colorful, but it is quite good.
However, although this inn is gorgeously decorated, the price is also ridiculously high, each room costs five high-grade spirit stones for one night, and the three rooms that Xingyun and several people want cost fifteen high-grade spirit stones in one night.
You must know that in the inn of Qingyang City, there is only one high-grade spirit stone for one room for one night, and the price of this inn in Stone City is five times higher than that of the inn in Qingyang City!
However, this Shiyuan Inn is not very black-hearted, and the environmental layout inside is much more upscale than the inn in Qingyang City, and the Xingyun people have a beautiful rest here.
Early the next morning, Xingyun and the others were having some breakfast on the first floor of the inn, when they saw Du Xiaoyong, who was dressed in white, hurriedly coming from outside the inn.
"Brother Xiaoyong, why are you in such a hurry?" Xingyun asked.
"Didn't I promise to take you to find the Dan Spirit Pulp yesterday, so I settled down and the old lady came to you, and you can't find me. Du Xiaoyong said with a big grin.
Xingyun and the others had a very good impression of this man in white and handsome, although he was a talker, but he could also make people feel his cheerfulness.
"Brother Xiao Yong, have you had breakfast? Sit down and eat together. Xiaoxiao hugged Xiaobai and said enthusiastically.
"No need, I ate it at home just now, I have thought about where I will take you to find the Dan Spirit Jelly, and we will leave after you finish eating. ”
Du Xiaoyong sat down on the side, but his mouth was not idle, and he began to talk to Xingyun and the others about the interesting things that had happened in Shicheng in the past few days.
"The third young master of Shi Taikun's family gambled on the stone a few days ago and opened a dagger, I heard that it was extremely sharp, it was a mid-level spirit weapon, and someone directly bid a hundred high-grade spirit stones to buy it from him, but he didn't sell it. ”
"There is a spirit stone more than two meters high in Shi Taikun's gambling stone workshop, which costs a hundred excellent spirit stones, but it has been placed there for decades, and no one dares to buy it so far, and it has become the treasure of the town shop in the gambling stone workshop, and it is also the most expensive spirit stone in Stone City. ”
"And that bastard Shi Fengxian, last time I gambled on Shi Shi and bloomed a black flower, which looked like it was worth a fortune, but it was robbed by that guy, and someone cleaned me up!"
This thing said that he was angry, and slapped the table next to him, startling the other guests of the inn, the innkeeper was a white-bearded old man, and scolded Du Xiaoyong directly.
"Du Xiaoyong, you guy is idle all day long, be careful to starve your old mother to death, and dare to mess around in my inn again, I have to find someone to clean you up. ”
Du Xiaoyong smiled wryly, and seeing that Xingyun and the others had already finished breakfast, he pulled a few people out of the inn.
"Who is Shi Taikun, is he famous in Stone City?"
"When you came to Shicheng, you didn't even know Shi Taikun!"
Du Xiaoyong looked like he had seen a ghost.
"Shi Taikun is the city lord of Shicheng, he is in his forties this year, but Xiuwei is already a fifth-level martial artist, and they have three young masters in the Shi family, the eldest young master is called Shi Fengxian, who is the same age as me, the second young master is called Shi Haohui, who is sixteen years old this year, and the third young master is called Shi Junhe, which is the same age as you. ”
"But this Shi Fengxian is a villain, relying on his father to be the lord of this stone city, he does evil, and does all kinds of evil......"
Du Xiaoyong seems to be very prejudiced against the person named Shi Fengxian, and after mentioning him, he has been saying bad things about that person, and he has been talking about Shi Fengxian's various crimes with Xingyun and a few others.
"Stop, Brother Xiao Yong, where are we going to find the Dan Spirit Pulp first?"
"We went to the Spirit Stone Market in the morning, and the major gambling stone workshops and individuals will sell what they get from the Spirit Stone there, and if we are lucky, we will be able to find the Dan Spirit Pulp you are looking for there. ”
After Du Xiaoyong answered Xiaoxiao's question, he led a few people towards the street to the east, and told a few people about his heroic deeds during the process.
"A month ago, I bought a half-meter-high gray spirit stone with a high-grade spirit stone, and then opened an unimaginable amount of stone milk in it, and then I sold those stone milk in the spirit stone market and made a lot of money, haha. ”
Along the way, Du Xiaoyong smiled and talked to a few people, and Xingyun and a few people really felt it, and they were really afraid that they wouldn't find a topic to chat with him.
The Lingshi market in Du Xiaoyong's mouth is on the east side of the three most lively central streets, and the market scale is very large, and it is most suitable to describe it with four words: many people and miscellaneous things.
Du Xiaoyong was obviously very familiar with this place, and walked around with Xingyun and a few people, looking around for anyone to sell Dan Ling Pulp.
"Little brother, Dan Ling Pulp is priceless, and it is a valuable thing, so you don't have to worry, this thing depends on fate, and it is not something that we can find here. Du Xiaoyong smiled awkwardly, he walked around here and still didn't hear the news of Dan Ling Pulp.
Xingyi nodded, if someone opened the Dan Ling Pulp, then it was very likely to be sold here, but the Dan Ling Pulp was very rare after all, so Xing Yi didn't expect much.
Several people searched here all morning, but they still didn't find any news about the Dan Spirit Pulp, so they could only return in vain.
"There will be an auction in the afternoon at the Black Blood Auction, and I will take you to try your luck. After speaking, Du Xiaoyong separated from a few people, and Xingyun and a few people had to go back to the inn first.
Stone City also has the power of the Black Blood Auction, and this auction is more high-end and atmospheric than that of Falling Wind City, which is located in the southernmost part of the three central streets, and the inn where Xingyun and a few people live is on the same street.
In the afternoon, Du Xiaoyong really came to find Xingyun and a few people, and then walked towards the black blood auction in Stone City together.
There were two people standing in front of the door of the black blood auction, and their bodies exuded the fluctuations of the cultivation of the fifth-level martial arts, this black blood auction was such a big deal, and it was actually allowed to let such a master come to see the gate.
After entering the auction, several people showed their tokens, and Du Xiaoyong also dragged a few people to the side of the auction to buy a mask each.
"Dan Ling Jelly is such a precious thing, if we really want to buy it, we must take precautions in advance, and we can't let others know our identity, otherwise I'm afraid that even if we buy Dan Ling Jelly, it won't fall into our hands in the end. Du Xiaoyong explained.
"There are still people who dare to steal things in the black blood auction. Nebula was puzzled.
"No one dares to make trouble in the Black Blood Auction, but once you get out of the auction door, no one can say for sure. Du Xiaoyong said and shrugged his shoulders.
After a few people were seated, the auction began quickly, and a middle-aged man and a young woman walked up to the front desk.
"I announce the official start of the auction, let's get straight to the point, the first thing to be auctioned today is a rare medicinal herb called Jizo Flower, which was obtained by our Shi family's eldest young master Shi Fengxian in the spirit stone, and the reserve price is one hundred high-grade spirit stones. ”
After the middle-aged man spoke, the young bewitching woman beside him pulled down the silk on the wooden plate in her hand, and inside was a black flower, which looked a little bewitching.
"Buy it!buy it!buy it!"
"Boy, you must buy this Jizo flower, this is one of the three main medicines of that elixir, without it, your curse will not be broken!"
The old man in Xingyi's heart heard another voice, and it didn't seem to be joking.
Du Xiaoyong, who was on the side, didn't know why, and clenched his fists angrily.
