Nuomi rode the foallou to an area where she had never been before, and she was a little shaken when she saw some magnificent scenes.
When she was at the head of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, it was not that she had never seen a beautifully decorated building. But now, when she looked at the streets and alleys full of golden houses, it was indeed a scene she had never seen before.
On the top of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, only the buildings of Xiaoyun Peak are more refined and luxurious, but they pay attention to a kind of elegant immortal aura, where will it be like the streets of this Xianyi City, these buildings like secular land lords have been built on the front and back. I've seen a lot along the way, and Nuomi feels that my eyes can't see it.
And on the streets here, there are also many monks riding all kinds of spiritual pets as mounts. The cultivation of these monks is higher than that of glutinous rice, and at a glance, the worst is also a high-level monk in the enlightenment period, there are very few monks like that, and more are monks in the distraction period, standing on the street full of ground, so that glutinous rice is timid at a glance.
Fortunately, even on such streets, there are still city guards patrolling. Glumi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the monks of the escort scurrying down the street, tied the Koma Tower to the side, and then turned and stepped into a magnificent-looking auction shop.
She didn't have any more shops to choose this time, and she didn't know anything about them, but she stopped in front of the first big shop she saw, looked up, and walked in.
There were many monks who came in and out of the shop, and each of them had a cold feeling on their faces, and they neither looked around nor greeted each other, but just looked down at the road under their feet, and walked on their own.
At the beginning, Nuomi looked around a little, and when he saw that the monks next to him were all so strict, he immediately woke up and knew that this was probably a secret rule. She came to this shop because she didn't want to attract attention, and the monks who entered it probably had the same thoughts as her.
Since everyone didn't want to be watched by others, she had better follow the example of those monks, keep her head low, and just follow her own path. Don't look around, and don't inquire about other people's affairs.
"Yo, this little official, are you here to buy something?"
As soon as Nuomi stepped through the door of the shop, a well-dressed man greeted her with a smile and spoke to her.
The guy didn't show any surprise because Nuomi was young, and he didn't mean to snub her. Nuomi quietly looked beside her from the corner of her eye, and found that every monk who entered the shop would meet such a fellow, and after a few words, the fellows led the guests to the back room, and after a while, the fellow came out alone.
She didn't know the rules of the shop, but since the other party had already come up to greet her, she whispered that she was going to buy exercises.
The man nodded, still smiling very kindly, bent down slightly, stretched out his hand inside, and said, "The guest officer will go inside with me, and naturally a gentleman will greet you." If you don't have a clear goal, your husband will also recommend you, which is free of charge. β
Glutinous rice whispered yes, and the guy was already leading the way. He didn't walk very fast, as if he had slowed down his pace in order to match the pace of glutinous rice. Glutinous rice follows him, as long as he walks at his usual pace, he can follow behind, and he doesn't need to run at all.
The guy walked slowly, and at the same time spoke to Nuomi in a voice that others couldn't hear clearly if they weren't paying attention, "What do you call the guest officer?" β
"I ......" Nuomi hesitated for a moment, and finally said a little shyly, "My name is Nuomi." β
The guy also paused, obviously not expecting such a random name, not even a surname. However, he can be a partner in such a big shop, and naturally he has seen many people, and he didn't have anything unusual because of this, and he still talked to Nuomi quietly.
"This is the first time the guest officer has come to our shop, right?" As he walked, the guy smiled and accosted Nuomi, "But thank you for coming to our shop." I dare to pack a ticket, if the guest officer can't find something he likes in us, even if he goes to another store, it will still be the same. β
Glutinous rice naturally didn't want to talk to the other party, saying that he just stopped in front of the first shop pΓΉ he saw, and could only answer vaguely "hmm".
The guy probably misunderstood, and when he heard Nuomi's whispered response, he smiled and said, "The guest officer came here for the first time, and he may not know." There is really a relationship between these big shops. If you don't have what you want here, we will naturally help ask other shops. As long as it's not particularly valuable, it's always something for you. β
Hearing him say this, Nuomi was surprised, thought about it, and couldn't help but ask, "What if that's the case...... Aren't other shops at a loss? β
The guy laughed even more, "Where." We have to transfer the goods here, but we have to pay an extra spirit stone. If there is the same situation in other stores, it will naturally be treated in the same way. It's not about making more money, it's just about keeping guests. Listening to you say this, I really don't know. Our big shops have basically joined the business alliance, and we can be regarded as a family. β
"Business Alliance...... Isn't it the same as the Scattered Cultivation Alliance......? β
"Well, it's kind of like that. However, our business alliance is more focused on doing business, regardless of whether it is a loose cultivation or a sect, or a large or small shop, as long as it is open in this Xianyi City to do business, you can apply to join the business alliance. As he spoke, the man led Glutinous rice to one of the rooms, then stopped and pushed the door open, "Yo, it's here." You inside, please. β
Nuomi was still a little curious about the business alliance, but the other party had stopped the topic, and she couldn't just ask all the way, so she could only follow into the room.
The room was not very large, there were no windows on all sides, there were two ink paintings of beauties hanging on the walls, and there was only a small square wooden table with tea on it, and an elderly monk was sitting in it, touching the beard on his chin and looking through a jade slip. On the side near the door, there is another chair. Other than that, there was nothing else in the room.
The sitting elder monk raised his head slightly when he heard the sound of the door opening, and when he saw that it was a little monk like Nuomi who had entered, his face suddenly showed a little surprise. However, this surprise only stayed for a short time before it was hidden.
The guy waited for Nuomi to go to the room, closed the door, and helped Nuomi pull out a chair, and then introduced the two parties, "This is Mr. Wei, the appraiser in our shop." Old Wei, this little guest officer wants to buy a set of exercises and techniques to be used after the middle level of the enlightenment period. β
"Oh." That Wei Lao raised his eyes slightly and looked at the glutinous rice, and his face showed a little surprise and admiration, "The little guest officer has reached this level at such an age, and the future is limitless." β
When was glutinous rice praised like this, he immediately blushed and moved a little uneasily while sitting on the chair.
That guy was supposed to introduce the name of Nuomi to Wei Lao as well, but he obviously thought it was a little strange how to introduce it, so he simply erased this section. That Wei Lao has also become a human spirit in the shop, and he doesn't think that the guy forgot this section by accident. The two nodded to each other, and the man pushed the door open again and walked outside.
It can be seen that these guys are really just leading the way, leading the customer to the appraiser, and then withdrawing again, without asking what the customer bought in the end, or what he didn't buy.
Nuomi was originally worried that the spirit stones she brought were not enough, not enough to buy a good exercise, and it would be even more embarrassing to be watched from the sidelines. Now that the guy took the initiative to retreat from the room, and all he was facing was an old Wei, Nuomi suddenly felt much more comfortable, and felt that the business in this shop was really good. There is no atmosphere that forces guests to buy things, and the privacy of guests is well maintained.
It wasn't until the guy completely withdrew and closed the door again that Wei Lao sat up straight and asked, "What kind of exercises does the guest officer want?" If you don't have a heart, the old man can recommend it to you. But first, you have to tell me about the attributes of the spiritual root. β
Nuomi has any favorite exercises in her heart, and she doesn't even know what exercises are in this shop. After a little hesitation, he whispered and said, "I'm a miscellaneous spirit root, and I don't know what exercises are good, so I'd better ask Elder Wei to recommend it to me......"
"Miscellaneous Roots?" Wei Lao really frowned greatly this time.
It was not unheard of for a young monk like Nuo Mi who was already about to step into the advanced level of the Enlightenment Period at a young age. In the sect to which he belongs, there are many new generation of minor monks, who are the same age as glutinous rice, and are also in the middle stage of the enlightenment period. It's just that those little monks are all single or double spirit roots, and cultivating with the exercises corresponding to the spirit roots has the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
Rao is that he is well-informed, and he has never seen a miscellaneous spirit root cultivator who can cultivate so quickly as Nuomi.
Seeing that the other party frowned and didn't speak, Nuomi thought there was something wrong with her words, so she timidly asked, "What's wrong?" β
Wei Lao hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke, "I have been an appraiser for so many years, and I have never heard of such a situation as you. Little guest officer, look, do you want to test the spiritual root again? (To be continued.)
