Chapter 404: Half-elixir Found
Although something unpleasant happened just now, it didn't affect the shopping of the three of them.
Next, Shen Tao and the three of them continued to walk around the streets, the whole ancient town was still very large, and the three of Shen Tao walked very slowly, stopping and stopping, and sometimes going to some stalls to have a look.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Shen Tao came out to shop this time, just to try his luck and see if he could encounter a semi-elixir or elixir.
So Shen Tao is also very patient shopping.
Helplessly, in this hour, Shen Tao has not encountered the shadow of the semi-elixir at all, not even the half-elixir, and the elixir has not been encountered.
Shen Tao muttered a little in his heart, when he was in the car last night, didn't he hear from Feng Ju that there were two semi-elixirs on sale in the ancient town yesterday? It was also acquired by Tiandanmen, why can't you meet it today? Are they all sold out? It shouldn't be!
"Shen Tao! There's another stall selling medicinal herbs! Feng Mengjia suddenly pointed not far away and said.
Because Feng Mengjia knew that Shen Tao was looking for medicinal materials, Feng Mengjia would remind Shen Tao every time he encountered a stall selling medicinal materials.
When Shen Tao heard this, he looked up, and more than ten meters away, there was indeed a stall selling medicine on the side of the road.
Moreover, there were a lot of people around this booth.
Normally, Shen Tao only needed to sense it to know if there were semi-spirit-level medicinal materials or spirit-level medicinal materials on the stall.
Because both semi-spirit grade medicinal materials and spirit grade medicinal materials will exude a unique aura, which can be felt even ten meters away.
Shen Tao sensed that this stall was still the same as the previous stalls, without any half-spirit grade medicinal materials and the breath of spirit grade medicinal materials.
"Shen Tao, are we going to take a look?" Feng Mengjia asked.
"No, just keep going."
Shen Tao replied lightly, because Shen Tao did not sense the breath of semi-spirit grade medicinal materials and spirit grade medicinal materials.
"Oh, let's go and see, there are so many people there, let's go see what they're watching." Feng Mengjia said with some curiosity.
"Yes, Brother Tao, let's come out, isn't it just shopping, so many people are watching, there must be something, let's go and have a look." Wang Xiaohui also suggested.
It can be seen that both of them are interested in why there are so many people watching.
"Then let's take a look." Shen Tao thought for a moment and then spoke.
Shen Tao thought, anyway, when he came out to shop, he was already walking and stopping along the way, and it was not bad this time.
Moreover, Shen Tao was told by Feng Mengjia and Wang Xiaohui, which made Shen Tao also a little interested, wanting to see what so many people were watching there, a stall selling medicinal materials, it stands to reason that there will not be so many people watching, right?
After Shen Tao finished speaking, the three of them walked towards the medicinal herb stall full of people.
As soon as the three of them approached the medicinal herb stall, Shen Tao's face changed slightly, and he stopped at the same time.
"Shen Tao, what's wrong?" Feng Mengjia saw Shen Tao stop, so she turned her head and asked suspiciously.
Shen Tao was stunned for a moment, and a smile of surprise suddenly appeared on his face:
"Half-elixir! There is a semi-elixir! ”
When Shen Tao approached, he clearly felt the smell of aura emitted by a semi-elixir, and it would definitely not be wrong!
"Really?"
Feng Mengjia was also overjoyed when she heard Shen Tao say this, Feng Mengjia also knew that Shen Tao was looking for a semi-elixir, and now that she had finally found the trace of the semi-elixir, she was naturally happy.
"Absolutely true! Walk! Let's take a look! Shen Tao said happily.
With that, Shen Tao took the lead in walking towards the stall.
Seeing this, Feng Mengjia naturally hurriedly followed.
Wang Xiaohui also quickly followed, although Wang Xiaohui wondered why Shen Tao was so interested in the semi-elixir, but he was not easy to ask.
Because the front of the stall was already full of people, Shen Tao could only squeeze inside, and Feng Mengjia and Wang Xiaohu also followed behind Shen Tao.
When he squeezed inside, Shen Tao also figured out why he hadn't sensed the taste of the half-elixir aura before, because there were too many people in front of the stall, blocking a lot of the aura emitted by the half-elixir, so he could only sense it when he got closer.
Moreover, Shen Tao basically understood why there were so many people watching here, they must be watching the half-elixir on this stall.
Soon, Shen Tao squeezed to the innermost part of the stall.
At this moment, Shen Tao finally saw the true face of the semi-elixir, which was a ambergris fruit.
In addition to this half-elixir ambergris fruit on the stall, there are also some ordinary medicinal materials of two or three hundred years.
Sitting in front of the stall was a middle-aged uncle.
The middle-aged uncle was closing his eyes, as if waiting for a buyer.
Although there are many onlookers around, these onlookers are basically watching fresh, and they are basically talking about each other.
Because there are many people who rarely see a half-elixir, and some people have never even seen a half-elixir.
However, no one asked this middle-aged uncle for a price at all.
"Although this semi-elixir is a treasure, only alchemy can play its role, and generally speaking, only Tiandanmen can buy it."
"I heard that Tiandanmen accepts these semi-elixirs, and the remuneration given is very ordinary, but don't sell them to Tiandanmen, and no one sells them, so even if this semi-elixir is a treasure, it can't actually be bought at a very good price."
Those onlookers stared at the ambergris on the stall and talked about it one after another.
These onlookers are all members of various cultivation sects and families, and they naturally know a lot about this profession.
The middle-aged uncle who bought medicinal herbs frowned immediately when he heard these discussions.
It can be seen that this middle-aged uncle also understands that although the semi-elixir is good, it is difficult to sell it at a good price.
The two semi-elixirs that appeared in this ancient town yesterday, Tiandanmen only gave one Aiki Pill in exchange for semi-elixir, and the attitude was very direct, if you want to change it, you can change it, and if you don't want to change it, you will pull it down, anyway, Tiandanmen has no effect on your semi-elixir.
But it's different for those who sell semi-elixir, they don't sell it to Tiandanmen, and generally no one buys it, so even if Tiandanmen only uses a coki-pill to exchange for semi-elixir, they can only choose to exchange it with Tiandanmen.
At least if you change it, you can still get an aiki pill, if you don't change it, then there will be nothing, and they can't refine the pill, and holding the half-elixir has no effect.
"Uncle, how do you sell this half-elixir?"
While everyone was talking, a voice sounded in front of the booth.
When the onlookers heard someone asking for the price, they immediately stopped talking, and then all their eyes fell on Shen Tao.
The middle-aged uncle who was waiting for the buyer with his eyes closed, after hearing someone asking, also opened his eyes, and then looked at Shen Tao.
"You want to buy a half-elixir?" The middle-aged uncle stared at Shen Tao and asked.
"That's right!" Shen Tao nodded.
"Are you from Tiandanmen? It doesn't look like you, does it? The middle-aged uncle wondered.
This middle-aged uncle knows very well that Tiandanmen is very domineering, how can he speak as kindly as Shen Tao?
"I'm not from Tiandanmen, what's wrong? Can't people who aren't Tiandanmen buy it? Shen Tao asked rhetorically.
"Since you're not from the Tiandanmen, don't make trouble here." The middle-aged uncle replied lightly.
After that, the middle-aged uncle closed his eyes again.
Shen Tao saw the middle-aged uncle close his eyes, and he was speechless for a while, isn't this person selling semi-elixir? If you want to buy it yourself, why does this person look like he doesn't believe it?
Shen Tao is also a smart person, and when he thought about it, he probably thought of the reason, it must be that this middle-aged uncle thinks that the half-elixir will only be bought by Tiandanmen, so he thinks that he is just asking and making trouble.
So, Shen Tao could only patiently continue:
"Uncle, although I am not from Tiandanmen, I really want to buy this half-elixir, and I will definitely not be paid less than Tiandanmen!"
When the middle-aged uncle heard this, he opened his eyes again, and at the same time looked at Shen Tao with a look of surprise:
"Do you really want to buy it? Do you know that this half-elixir is not worth using for anything other than alchemy, why do you want this half-elixir? ”
Obviously, in the eyes of the middle-aged uncle, only the Tiandanmen could refine a pill of this level as a semi-elixir.
So this middle-aged uncle didn't think at all that Shen Tao was taking this half of the elixir to refine the pill.
"Uncle, you just need to sell it to me, what do you care about me?" Shen Tao said a little speechlessly.
After the middle-aged uncle heard Shen Tao's words, he thought about it, what Shen Tao said did make sense, what did he care about Shen Tao for? As long as Shen Tao is willing to pay him enough compensation, isn't it?
So the middle-aged uncle said directly:
"Okay, as long as you can produce a aiki pill, or an elixir of the same value, I will sell it to you, Tiandanmen collects this half elixir, which is the price that is prescribed, I definitely didn't sell you at a high price, you can also inquire."
For this middle-aged uncle, he was actually willing to sell it to Shen Tao, because every time Tiandanmen came to buy pills, he was very domineering, which was very unpleasant!
"A Aiki pill? OK! Shen Tao replied briskly.
For Shen Tao, one Aiki Pill in exchange for one is definitely blood gain!
"Okay, bring it! Pay with one hand, deliver with the other! ”
The middle-aged uncle picked up the ambergris fruit from the stall and said to Shen Tao at the same time.
"Ugh"
Seeing this, Shen Tao immediately became a little embarrassed.
Feng Mengjia on the side couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker.
When she was in the car last night, Feng Mengjia knew that Shen Tao had no pills, and Shen Tao said that she wanted empty gloves for the white wolf.
Feng Mengjia felt that Shen Tao's idea was unreliable last night, and now she naturally wants to see if Shen Tao can succeed in the empty glove white wolf.
When Feng Mengjia covered her mouth and snickered, she also threw a look at Shen Tao I see you performing an empty glove white wolf.
"What's wrong? Brother? Don't tell me you don't have an elixir, don't tell me you were playing tricks on me just now! The middle-aged uncle glanced at Shen Tao vigilantly.
"Ahem."
Shen Tao coughed dryly, and then said seriously: "Uncle, it's like this, I didn't bring the pill, can you give me the half-elixir first, and I'll give you two Aiki pills as a reward when I go back!" ”
Although something unpleasant happened just now, it didn't affect the shopping of the three of them.
Next, Shen Tao and the three of them continued to walk around the streets, the whole ancient town was still very large, and the three of Shen Tao walked very slowly, stopping and stopping, and sometimes going to some stalls to have a look.
