Chapter 42: Supplies
Qinghuanzhai in the north area of the Hundred Tombs, the accommodation conditions are fresh and elegant, Ji Fan got up early in the morning and tidied up the quilt.
Seeing the big Zen characters in the quiet room, Ji Fan was at ease, and Mu Ran's face relaxed a little.
Ji Fan had been living in the Hundred Tomb City for seven days, and he had found this good place early.
Qinghuanzhai is the retreat place of the Phantom Dust Sect in the Hundred Tomb City, this sect is all sisters-in-law, eating fasting and worshipping Buddha, and most of the disciples in the door are benevolent.
Ji Fan didn't have a shortage of silver money to add some sesame oil, but he only lived in Qinghuanzhai and didn't need to eat.
It's not that Ji Fan is not used to fasting, but Qinghuanzhai is too light, and the three sects and nine streams don't like to eat fasting, and they can't hear any news when they eat here.
A small courtyard includes a quiet room, Ji Fan lives with a little hedgehog, it is very private, and he is very satisfied with the accommodation environment, especially as the trial of the Ten Demon Dao is approaching, there are more and more monks from all sides in the Hundred Tombs City, and having such a quiet place to stay can at least make him not worry too much.
After washing his face in the courtyard early in the morning, Ji Fan took another basin of clean water into the room, sat at the table and took out a jar of disfigurement paste in the storage bag, and took a picture of his face with the bronze mirror prepared on the table.
The disfigured pulp was bought by Ji Fan in Chengbeifang City two days ago, a jar of broken spirit stones, this kind of disfigured pulp is a pulp cut from the yellow tree, which is relatively rare.
It's not enough to have disfigurement pulp alone, Ji Fan also prepared a box of color-changing flower dew in advance, as well as a set of disguised knife scissors and a dot pen, together with the disguise pulp, a total of two broken spirit stones.
After thinking about it for a while, Ji Fan went to dig up the pulp in the jar, looked in the mirror and tried to wipe it on his face.
The pulp is delicate and the upper face is cool, but in order to make a good face, there are many details that need to be processed.
When the pulp dries out a little, Ji Fan has to use a knife to make small openings in some places of the easy face, and then make a certain filling, and he also has to put on a discoloration flower dew, so that the easy skin is as natural as possible, consistent with the skin tone at the joint, and there are no flaws.
After an hour of hard work, Ji Fan kept smearing and scratching his face, coloring and meticulously repainting with a dot pen before he made a scalded face with a burn on the left side of his face.
"The face is a little fuller, the light color at the junction is also light, the nose has to lie down a little more, and the pores of the skin seem to be a little less, so a few more numb......ness should be added" Ji Fan looked at the bronze mirror carefully and looked at himself who had changed greatly, but he was still not very satisfied.
"Snort~~~"
Ji Fan picked at his chin with his hand, and opened a small piece of the disfigured skin that matched his skin and rolled it, and then tore it off little by little.
From early in the morning, it took Ji Fan a whole morning to make three disfigured faces, and then he felt that he could fool outsiders who had short contact.
"It's said that it's a disfigurement slurry, and I can't see through the not too advanced Anapana, I don't know if it can achieve this effect. Ji Fan packed up the things on the table and made sure that there was no omission, before opening the doors and windows to let the wind out.
The flowers and trees in the small courtyard in the summer are sparse, and it is quite quiet, because there is nothing in the quiet room, and the little hedgehog is keen on breath, Ji Fan is not worried about others coming, and he went out of the yard after tidying up.
During the seven days, in addition to eavesdropping on the news, Ji Fan visited the Fang Market in the south of the city.
Compared with the shops on both sides of the street in the north of the city, the city in the south of the city is extremely lively, and most of the individual monks are doing business.
According to the overheard news, Ji Fan learned that the team of monks of the Xuanyin Sect had also come to the Hundred Tombs City, and he also heard that the spirit corpse of the Xuanyin Sect this time was the backbone of the Xuanyin Sect's participation in the trial of the Ten Demon Dao Hundred Tombs Mountain Range.
"If it weren't for the fact that the Phantom Dust Sect only accepts female disciples, this sect could have become my first choice, but it's a pity!" When he came out of the Qing Phantom Zhai, Ji Fan saluted respectfully whenever he met his sister-in-law.
Even if the Phantom Dust Sect is a female sister-in-law, the disciples in the door are not weak, but the illusion is a must, in Ji Fan's opinion, to be able to rank among the ten demon paths, the Phantom Dust Sect should not be underestimated.
Leaving Qinghuanzhai, Ji Fan first found a small street with a person on his back, properly pasted the disguised face that was prepared to be put into the storage bag on his face, took out a bronze mirror and looked at it carefully, confirmed that there were no obvious flaws, and then took out the withered leaf mud that the little hedgehog had chewed, and smeared it slightly in his arms.
With half a stick of incense, Ji Fan rushed to the noisy Fang Market in the south of the city.
The streets were bustling with people, piles of stalls around them, and people were constantly coming and going in the tents that were propped up.
"Take a look at it, the best demon beast, the earth and rock pig can carry and attack, raise one, and when it grows up, it is equivalent to a meat shield, good quality and low price, three broken spirit stones each!"
The shouting and selling in the market rose one after another.
"Vajra Fu, Vajra Fu, pat it on your body, Vajra barrier protection, defense leverage, don't miss it when you pass by!"
"Mad Yuan Dan, everyone come and take a look, eat one at the critical moment, make Lingyuan rampant, and kill the enemy desperately, a must-have medicine, one is only a broken spirit stone!"
"Shovel and pickaxe, the effect of digging graves can be seen......"
"There are more people than the other day!"
Ji Fan followed the crowd and walked around the market and went to a tent selling demon beasts.
Because he stepped on it a little in advance, Ji Fan knew that this tent selling demon beasts was run by a disciple of the Prison Heaven Sect.
Among the Ten Demon Dao, the Imprisoned Heaven Sect is good at formations and beasts, and it has quite the means, especially the formation, which is very difficult to practice.
It was found that there were three female monks in the tent, and they had a good impression of the cute type of little demon beast, while Ji Fan was waiting outside the tent.
"It seems that selling demon beasts is also a way to make money. After observing these few days, Ji Fan sighed that the business of the disciples of the Prison Heaven Sect was good.
"That young man is so ugly, there is a burn on his face, and there is a stench......" It wasn't until the three female monks happily hugged the demon beasts they bought, whispered and left, and when there was no one in the tent, Ji Fan went in.
"What, you want to buy something?"
The sharp-mouthed young man looked down on Ji Fan's image, and he didn't want to delay his business.
"I want to buy a beast stone. ”
Ji Fan cautiously glanced at the sharp-mouthed young man and expressed his meaning.
"Can you afford two spirit stones? This is the cheapest price. The sharp-mouthed young man waved his hand towards the two oval stones in the crystal counter, revealing a disdainful smile.
In the surprised gaze of the sharp-mouthed youth, Ji Fan took out a storage bag from his arms, and unexpectedly released two spirit stones that were almost the size of a fist and emitted pure light.
"Boy, I didn't see it, you are quite stocked, where did the spirit stone come from?" The sharp-mouthed young man came back to his senses, his eyes slightly glowed, and he looked Ji Fan up and down with the Breathing Technique.
"The Beast Stone. ”
Ji Fan's eyes were slightly open, and he meant that he would not make any compromises, which was very different from the cautiousness just now.
"Hehe~~~ It's easy to say anything if you have a spirit stone, I will open the door to do business, naturally I won't deceive you, I'll give you the beast stone first." The sharp-mouthed young man took out an oval stone from the counter and handed it to Ji Fan.
From Ji Fan's expression, the sharp-mouthed young man felt a fierce temperament.
Ji Fan took the beast stone, and put it into the storage bag in front of the animal skin bag containing the little hedgehog without a trace, and then gave the two spirit stones to the sharp-mouthed youth.
Stepping out of the tent, Ji Fan did not thank the sharp-mouthed young man, and quickly blended into the crowd in Fang City.
"Ugly cub, your spiritual power is quite strong, you can't use the storage bag if you don't have a spiritual practice, and if you have a chance to encounter it again in the future, it will be your death. The sharp-mouthed young man looked at Ji Fan who was leaving, and after sneering, he immediately solicited guests again.
Ji Fan was mentally prepared, and he was not afraid of being framed by the sharp-mouthed youth, because he was going to go to the Xuanyin Gate in the east of the city to recommend himself to worship the sect.
"Maybe it won't work!"
While Ji Fan was looking for the herb stall, he secretly sighed in his heart.
Self-recommendation worship, Ji Fan can consider that it is not easy, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't succeed, it's best if you can get acquainted.
After eavesdropping on the news for seven days, Ji Fan also had a certain degree of in-depth understanding of the Xuanyin Sect, and the Xuanyin Sect was still very decent in its overall behavior.
Although there are many stalls in Fang City, Ji Fan goes to the tent to trade, and he has traveled to many places to buy the herbs prepared for alchemy.
The Peiling Pill obtained from Chen Gengnian has the effect of nourishing qi and veins, and can consolidate the foundation of Peiyuan, and requires Yuluzhi, Lingjiao flower and green ginseng as the main medicine, with Shengjin honey.
Ji Fan, who had no experience in refining medicine, didn't dare to buy the spirit essence of the medicine age, and he couldn't afford it.
There are five ten-year-old green ginseng, each with a broken spirit stone, and the ten-year-old Yuluzhi is also five, which is the same price as green ginseng.
There are also ten ten-year-old Lingjiao flowers, and with Shengjin honey, Ji Fan consumed a spirit stone.
In several medicinal herb tents, Ji Fan also bought all the medicinal materials for refining the Soldier Beast Pill by the way.
Refining the Soldier Beast Pill requires at least thirty years of medicinal age of Condensing Demon Grass and Blood Shou Wu, these two spirit essences alone require two spirit stones, and the Purple Leaf Dikui of the same medicinal age, as well as Phantom Xue Zhi, Ji Fan just made up a portion of the furnace, and spent four spirit stones.
Coupled with the expenditure of the Imperial Beast Stone, the nine spirit stones were spent like this.
After going around a few days in advance, Ji Fan's spirit stones were calculated to be spent, and there was not one left in Fang City, but there were still four broken spirit stones in case of expenses.
After buying good things, Ji Fan did not stay in Fang City, but shuttled through the shops around Fang City and walked the small streets, and turned around and didn't find anyone to follow, so he carefully tore off his disguised face in the place where he was back, and went back to Qinghuanzhai.
Although Ji Fan bought the spirit essence of alchemy, he was not in a hurry to refine it, and the supply opportunity in the Hundred Tombs City was rare at the moment, and he was afraid that once he left the Hundred Tombs City, it would be difficult to have good conditions for purchasing cultivation resources.
Even if he alchemy later, in Ji Fan's plan, he would have to buy some cheap herbs and refine some low-grade pills to practice his hands.
The cost of the Spirit Pill and the Beast Pill was here, if he couldn't refine it successfully, Ji Fan couldn't afford to lose it, and this time he spent all his entire spirit stones.
Back in the small courtyard of Qinghuanzhai, Ji Fan's heart was still pounding rapidly.
"If you can't succeed in worshipping yourself, you have to leave the Hundred Tombs City. Ji Fan took off his clothes in the courtyard and rinsed his face, head and body.
Ji Fan combed his hair, put on a small scarf, and put on the new cloth clothes that he had prepared before, thinking that it was not rude, he was already going to put the little hedgehog into the Imperial Beast Stone and go to the Xuanyin Gate in the east of the city.
