Chapter 16: What is the use of iron rods?
Four days passed.
For four days, Ji Tian was diligent every day, earnestly teaching the prisoners of the bitter sacrifice center, which can be said to be quite dutiful.
Although the inscriptions he taught, although they were written in the same book and were difficult to understand, did not prevent the prisoners from copying them in their entirety.
Gradually, even people in other districts knew that there was a strange thing in the eastern district, unlike other supervisors who could only beat and scold, Ji Tian would not only teach them to draw inscriptions, but also teach them various sacrificial skills, and they were very kind and charitable.
Some prisoners with quick-witted brains were even able to complete the requirements early under his teaching.
In this way, the output rate of the entire Eastern District has become the highest in the whole firm.
At this time, Sun was overjoyed, and the amount of gifts from the bitter sacrifice house increased, and he could also get more kickbacks.
But at the same time, he was very entangled.
It stands to reason that Sun regained Ji Dongfeng's benefits, and he should help him suppress Ji Tian, but the value that Ji Tian has shown in the past few days really makes him a little moved......
"Maybe you can hide it from Ji Dongfeng first, and wait until all the inscription combinations in Ji Tian's hands are squeezed out, or let him teach the other guards, and then I won't be too late to do it......"
After thinking about it again and again, Sun Chong secretly made a decision, and at the same time restrained the people below, allowing Ji Tian to have some convenience during this time.
No one came to make things difficult for him, and Ji Tian naturally had a smooth life after many days.
…………
When he returned to the room that night, Ji Tian was not in a hurry to sleep, but thought about how to arm himself in case of emergency.
Although Sun Chong didn't come to him for trouble in the past few days, it didn't mean that he would still treat him differently after he lost his use value in the future.
What's more, in this bitter sacrifice place, his strength is still at the bottom.
To be on the safe side, it's better to prepare some hole cards.
There were still three or four hours before dawn, Ji Tian slept for a while, recuperated his spirits, and got up on time at six o'clock, dressed and washed.
Through the mirror, he tried to control the fission of facial cells, and simply changed the contour of the facial features, which is a common technique for the origin of fission - [Human Skin Face], although there is little change in all places, but when the facial features are combined as a whole, the temperament of the whole face will be very different.
People who are not familiar with Ji Tian will not even associate him with his original self.
After the changes were completed, Ji Tian changed his clothes and sneaked out of the bitter sacrifice house.
…………
Pujiang District, east of Tianhe Town, is home to priests, and for most of the year, priests from all major sacrificial schools gather here to study the various art of sacrifice.
Although it is only early in the morning, the streets and alleys of Pujiang District are already brightly lit, and the street lights of Yuanneng Power Generation illuminate the entire night market a little cold.
At this moment, Ji Tian was wearing a gray priest's robe, wandering on the street of the sacrificial courtyard in Tianhe Town, drifting around with the flow of people, he came just in time to catch up with the Pujiang ghost market, the biggest feature of the ghost market is that it opens before dawn and closes as soon as the morning dawns.
Whenever before dawn, the market is bustling. It's very bustling. Looking from afar, the lights and shadows were bright and dim, flickering, and there were also people who bought and sold people in the shadows.
"Characteristic inscription teaching class, buy four months and get one month free!"
"There are only three places left in the professional small class of the Mechanical Demon School, first come, first served!"
"Mortal-level high-level sacrificial vessels jump off the building for sale, and you can take away your future heirloom with only 10,000 star coins~"
"This little brother looks extraordinary, and at first glance he is a rich and noble person, why don't you come and have a look~~"
"Come here~~"
A vendor on the side of the road grinned, showing half of his yellowed teeth, and his hands were dry like eagle claws.
Ji Tian looked at the uncle's stumbling appearance and felt frightened.
"Uncle, it doesn't matter if you look ugly, but you still learn from other people's stumbling aunts. It's your fault to attract people. ”
"What's that called?"
The carving master put down his cramping paws stupidly, saw Ji Tian coming over, and hurriedly said: "I see that you are still inexperienced, and I don't want you to be too miserable by the chicken thief merchants here, so I kindly attract your attention, come on, look at your carving master's baby, ensure that the price is fair, and Tong Su is not bullied." ”
"Really?" Ji Tian glanced at the stall behind the eagle master, and then his eyes narrowed slightly: "But how do I feel, in this stall, you are the most pitiful." ”
He specialized in this for a while before he was reborn, and naturally knew that the words of these vendors could not be trusted, otherwise he would be slaughtered so that he didn't even know his own mother.
Ahem~
Diao Ye coughed dryly: "Don't think of me as the same as those people, I have good goods here, and they are all friendly prices for jumping off buildings, which is completely different from those people." ”
"Everything?"
"Yes, everything."
"More than ten catties of starfall steel, and the flower pupil iron born underground, all of them?"
"I'm here, he'......" Eagle Ye frowned, looking Ji Tian up and down again.
Ji Tian said these things casually, but they are rare treasures on the market, that is, he has been in this industry for so many years, and he rarely heard of it, so he couldn't help but think carefully: "Connoisseur? ”
"No, newcomer."
I believe you're a ghost.
The eagle master knew that he had met an expert, so he immediately kept silent.
Ji Tian picked and chose at random at the stall, and the sacrificial vessels he wanted to sacrifice were not unusual, so he quickly found the materials he wanted, which were all common things, and the price was not expensive.
"Huh?"
At this time, he suddenly noticed that a nearby stall owner's goods were mixed with a blood-red iron rod, the iron rod was covered under the goods, and the rod was covered with rust like a crater, but he could vaguely see many complex inscription imprints, even with Ji Tian's eyesight, he couldn't see the origin of these inscriptions for a while.
Could it be a baby?
Ji Tian thought to himself, followed by a light glance at the stall owner with yellow hair on his head and a melancholy face, and randomly circled a piece of goods, including a blood-red iron rod, and said, "Boss, what is the price of these metals?" ”
The yellow-haired stall owner ignored him and let himself go.
On the side, the carving master squeezed over, and said enthusiastically: "Little brother's eyesight is not bad, this thing is a treasure that our dog brother once found in a ruin, and now it is sold at a low price, as long as you have five hundred star coins per catty." ”
"Is this worthless?" Ji Tian couldn't help but be speechless, the iron rod was seven or eight pounds.
He had 10,000 yuan in his hand, and he had to take out some of it to buy materials, and his hand was really tight.
"It was more valuable, but these are the crystallization of Brother Dog and his ex-girlfriend found together, once upon a time, that woman made Brother Dog crazy, and was willing to pick stars and moons for her, but now that the two have broken up, he doesn't want to keep these things anymore, so he clears the price sale."
When the eagle master said this, the eyes of the yellow-haired dog brother seemed to be even more melancholy.
Since it's something from the ruins...... Ji Tian gritted his teeth, the sacrificial vessels in the ancient ruins are inextricably linked with the modern sacrificial technique, and it is likely to be a great treasure.
If you don't buy it, you are actively missing a great opportunity......
After thinking about it again and again, Ji Tian pretended to be careless, and casually put the stick in his hand. Pick out the sub and try to be fresh and natural.
The carving master weighed them one by one: "Today, I will look at you and I will not kill you, so I will give you the lowest price to open the door." ”
"Don't worry, it's not over yet."
Ji Tian took a step forward, took out a palm-sized bronze bottle from a pile of materials selected by the carving master, and took out a sponge soaked with water from the bottle.
Then he brought a jar full of blue sand and found a piece of masonry buried deep in the bottom of the jar.
After a while, he tore off a powerful tape under a piece of red metal......
Every time Ji Tian took out a fish-eyed thing, the carving master's face changed a point.
This was repeated more than ten times, and all kinds of indiscriminate foreign objects were taken out of the materials by Ji Tian one by one, and the old face of the carving master was as green as moss.
These bricks, sponges, and magnetic stripes were all deliberately mixed by him to increase the weight of the goods, and the location was also quite secret, but he didn't expect Ji Tian's eyes to be so vicious, and he actually found out.
When the carving master finished weighing the pound with a dark face, Ji Tian smacked his lips and said, "I've bought so many materials, why don't you give any small gifts." ”
"What to send, I have these goods with a clear price, don't you want to grab it!"
Diao Ye was a little angry, he said before that he would sell it to Ji Tian at cost price, but he didn't expect Ji Tian to be so scheming, and he knew well about their merchants' tricks of pouring water into customers, and originally wanted to secretly raise the cost price, but Ji Tian said a word, and he didn't earn a penny now, so he made a lot of money.
"Don't give a single primary sacrificial vessel? This is not in accordance with the rules, my brother is bullying our newcomers. ”
Newcomer? You're an old guy and still pretending to be tender?
The carving master's face was almost black to soot, but he couldn't refute it, after all, what Ji Tian said was indeed their rules, and the beginner sacrificial vessel was indeed not worth a few dollars, so he would give it away, but he had always been stingy, and if the guests didn't ask for it, they wouldn't talk much at all.
"Black tung cup, horn basin, green lacquer bowl, what do you want as a gift?"
"Just give me ten white jade plates."
"Why don't you grab it!"
After paying the money and returning to a state of poverty, Ji Tian couldn't wait to go out, and when he couldn't see the stall of the carving master, he took out the iron rod and squinted his eyes to play seriously.
Unexpectedly, after just groping for a while, he rubbed off a lot of the inscription on the iron rod.
Ji Tian's eyes widened at this time, and he rubbed it two or three times in disbelief, and both hands were red painted.
I...... This ancient inscription of Nima......
It's all painted.
This time it was Ji Tian's turn to be confused.
…………
"I want to ~ what is the use of this iron rod~~"
At the head of the stall, the carving master hummed a little song briskly, and pulled out a black package from under the dog brother's table, and the package was actually the same red iron rod.
"Dog, let's go to Black Mountain Ridge again tomorrow and find some more small iron rods to come back, they are almost out of stock."
Brother Dog didn't say anything, still looking at the unbright sky melancholy.
Bang Dang!
As soon as the carving master was about to close the stall, Ji Tian threw the iron rod on his stall.
"Old goods, pay back!"
"Boy, who are you?" Eagle Ye looked at Ji Tian in surprise.
"You old pit goods, you took so much money from me, and now you don't know me, right?" watching the carving master reluctantly closing the stall, Ji Tian had to grit his teeth.
"As long as you can come up with a piece of evidence to prove that you have bought something from me, I will pay you money," after packing the stall, the carving master was tired.
"I ......" Ji Tian swept around the corner, not to mention that there is a camera here, there is not even a witness, and the only yellow-haired stall owner is still in the same group as this guy.
Ji Tian regretted a little, he knew that he should have let the other party open an invoice.
"You...... You wait for me, no one dares to make my money for nothing! ”
Helplessly put down a cruel word, Ji Tian could only stare dryly, watching the two of them finish the stall and leave Pujiang District in a three-jumper.
