Chapter 53 Shopping in the city, picking gifts in the grocery store.
Thunderstorm heard Lu Ji talk about the specific date, and he couldn't help but chuckle again in his heart!
"Brother Zhang, Xiaocui is not young anymore, don't you want to find a mother-in-law?" Yu Sanjin looked at Zhang Yizheng with a smile.
"Go up, what are you thinking, we are all clear!" Several people chatted until late, and they all rested at Zhang Yizheng's house!
The next day, Lu Ji and Lei Jingyu hurriedly went to the city to buy some things, Wanglin Town was still small after all, and some things could not be bought.
Lei Jingyu accompanied Lu Ji around the city for a long time, and bought a lot of rouge gouache silk and satin.
Lei Jingyu wanted to buy some jewelry for Lu Yunxi but was afraid that it would not be suitable, so he looked up and walked to the door of a shop, there was no plaque on it, but a flag was hung on the pole at the door, with a big miscellaneous word written on it!
Thunderstorm has also been in Marvel City for a while, but he has never noticed such a place. "Big brother, what is this for?" asked Lei Jingyu.
"I don't know, big brother will take you in and have a look!" Lu Ji sold a pass and walked over with thunder and rain.
The façade of the store is not big, and the interior decoration is antique. A middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper leaned back on a chair and played with the objects in his hand, without even looking up at them.
There is a row of treasure shelves on each of the two walls, and on each of the shelves is placed one thing, some of them of strange shapes, some of them are of brilliant colors!
Lei Jingyu stopped in front of the shelf for a while and didn't see the store come up to greet him, and asked Lu Ji in a low voice, "Big brother, what is this?"
Lu Ji said in a low voice, "Just take a look, we can't afford anything in here! This is for cultivators, and the eldest brother doesn't know what it's for!"
"Cultivation weapons?" said Thunder Storm in surprise!
"Hehe, brother, I still know that there is a magic weapon!" Lu Ji laughed, like pulling a thunderstorm out.
"Big brother, I'll take a look again!" Seeing that Lei Jingyu had no intention of leaving, he could only give up, and accompanied him to turn around again!
Thunderstorm looked very closely, and everything had to stay in front of it for a while.
This is the first time he has been in close contact with a magic weapon other than his body, according to the three words, things like magic weapons will have a certain temperament and character, and if other magic weapons are close to it, they will take the initiative to warn, and no matter how bad they are, they will also be repulsed.
But these magic weapons were placed together at close range, and Thunderstorm didn't find anything unusual. What he didn't know was that although these things were beautiful and colorful, they couldn't be called real magic weapons.
Manlin is located in a remote area and lacks resources, so ordinary cultivators will not come here, and there will be no magic weapons circulating in the world. Lu Ji had also heard people talk about this place, and he didn't know what the real magic weapon looked like, only that it was very precious!
If the conversation between the two of them today is known to Sanjo, they will be able to laugh off their big teeth! Lei Jingyu looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but reach out to a very delicate small box with the question in his heart.
As soon as his finger touched the box, he heard a call like stepping on a cat's tail, "Don't move"! Lei Jingyu was startled and hurriedly withdrew his hand and looked around, only to see the shopkeeper turn out from behind the counter and hurriedly walked to Lei Jingyu to separate his vision from the box.
"Do you know what this is?" the shopkeeper shouted loudly, but his voice was a little shrill and thin. When he spoke, his eyes were dripping, and the two mouse-whisker beards on his mouth trembled, and the whole face was almost written with the word shrewd.
"You won't let you see this?" Thunderstorm pointed to the small box.
"Let me see, but don't touch it if you don't buy it!" The shopkeeper was relatively short, and he looked arrogant when he talked to Lei Jingyu.
"Okay, then let's go!" Lu Ji is usually more kind and doesn't like to worry about people, since people don't show it, forget it, and plan to go out after pulling up the thunderstorm.
"Big brother, wait a minute, since he is in business, let's see what we're afraid of!"
"If you don't let me touch it, then you tell me what you have here?" said Lei Jingyu as he looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper's eyes rolled, "Okay, I'll open your eyes to the countryman today!" he said, carefully placing the small box from the shelf on the counter.
The box opened, and inside lay a hairpin. The seven-inch-long hairpin is intertwined with two colors, yellow and red, and the two colors are intertwined with each other and are beautiful to look at.
As the box opened, Thunderstorm seemed to feel the temperature in front of him rise. I just wanted to take it with my hand, but I remembered the shopkeeper's face just now. Pointing to the hairpin, he said, "Pick it up and I'll take a look!"
"The shopkeeper is in a good mood today, you can take it and see it yourself, but I'll explain it to you, if something goes wrong, don't tell me that you can't afford to accompany me!" said the shopkeeper with a look of disdain as he stroked his rat whiskers.
"Tell me the origin of this hairpin first!" Lei Jingyu did not rush to get it, but looked at the shopkeeper with a smile.
Lu Ji didn't speak beside him, but when he saw Lei Jingyu's expression, he knew that Lei Jingyu didn't know what bad idea he was thinking up in his head!
"Origin, hehe, boy, you're fine! This magic weapon is called the Glass Fire Hairpin, and it was forged by the famous refining master of the Burning Flame Country. Wear it on your head, cold and heat do not invade, and water and fire are not close. The most powerful thing is that it can block a cultivator's blow for you, so it's really the best companion to save your life!"
The shopkeeper's gesture was full of foam and talked for a long time, and when he saw the thunderstorm and no expression, he suddenly lost the desire to continue, "Let's see for yourself!"
Lei Jingyu took the hairpin, and it was warm in his hand, and he couldn't help but like it. He was not surprised because although he had few objects on him, he could compare everything with such things. Sanjo told him that these few things on him are high-end goods, and I'm afraid there are none in this world.
However, Lei Jingyu is quite satisfied with this hairpin, the forest is located in the north of the mainland, and the winter is unusually cold and long. If there is such a thing pinned to the head, then Yunxi does not have to worry about catching a cold. As for being able to block the cultivator's blow, Thunderstorm didn't believe it at all.
Put the hairpin back in the box and snap the lid on the box during the thunderstorm. "How do you sell this hairpin?" Lu Ji grinned as he listened, thinking that you are too similar, do you have money in your pocket?
The shopkeeper didn't look at the two of them, but since they asked the price, once they can sell it, "One price, five hundred gold!"
"How much?" Lu Ji exploded when he heard this! He hit a pair of hammers, and used more than 1,000 catties of iron to make less than 400 gold. A broken hairpin costs 500 catties, why don't you grab it?
The shopkeeper took out the hairpin and dangled it in front of the two of them, "This hairpin is worth as much as it can prevent the cultivator from blowing, and when attacked, it will form a cloud of fire to protect the wearer from harm, look at your appearance that has never seen the world, make a fuss!"
Thunderstorm didn't listen to the shopkeeper's show-off, but turned to another shelf to observe. Suddenly, Lei Jingyu felt the Dingkun bracelet on his left wrist tremble slightly, and dragged him to the position where the shopkeeper had just done.
Lei Jingyu walked closer and found a dark purple bracelet on the chaise longue of the shopkeeper, and the material style was exactly the same as Lei Jingyu's Dingkun bracelet.
Lei Jingyu knew that his bracelet must have a great provenance, although he had not yet figured out what was extraordinary about it, but judging from the situation that the master attached so much importance to it, this bracelet must be extraordinary. Now I found another one, if it wasn't in the bag, it would be a thunderous character.
Gently picked up the bracelet and just wanted to take a closer look, only to see that the bracelet was directly put on Lei Jingyu's right wrist with a bang.
Thunderstorm jumped and wanted to take it back, but found that the bracelet seemed to grow on his hand, and he couldn't get it off.
It happened that the shopkeeper looked here, "Eh, boy, do you still want to steal from me?" After speaking, he put down the hairpin and hurriedly walked over.
Seeing this, the thunderstorm could only face it head-on. "Shopkeeper, how do you sell this bracelet?"
"Three hundred gold bracelets!" The shopkeeper saw the thunderstorm and put the bracelet on without permission, and he was angry.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Lei Jingyu said with a smile, "Your bracelet is not made of precious materials, it looks like a branch broken from a branch, you want three hundred gold?
The shopkeeper couldn't help but be angry, in fact, he didn't know the origin of this bracelet. A few days ago, a middle-aged man with a thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes came here to exchange money, this bracelet is ordinary, but it looks like it has been played with for a long time, and it is smooth and abnormal.
The two had a dispute, but he accepted twenty gold, and left it in his hand to play for a while in his spare time. Seeing that the thunder and rain wanted, the lion opened his mouth and shouted a sky-high price.
"The things I have here are all at a fixed price, you can buy them if you can afford them, and if you can't afford them, you will leave, and you won't give them away!"
Lei Jingyu slowly walked to the front counter and picked up the hairpin, "I want these two things, you can give a good price!"
"A total of eight hundred catties, not a single gold!" The shopkeeper was very angry by the carelessness and banter of the thunderstorm, and said categorically.
"You said that your hairpin is from the Burning Flame Country?" said Lei Jingyu knowingly.
"That's natural, the famous refiner of the Burning Flame Country personally forged it!" the shopkeeper looked proud.
"Big brother, can we take people?" Thunderstorm winked at Lu Ji!
Lu Ji was stunned for a moment and immediately understood, and pulled down his face, "I suspect that you are fornicating with foreign enemies, come back to the city defense office with me!"
The shopkeeper was stunned on the spot, "Adulteration with foreign enemies, what foreign enemies, what are you doing?"
"I am Lu Ji, the new captain of the city defense corps, and this is my subordinate. Lei Jingyu was not assigned a fixed position, and Lu Ji said that he was a subordinate.
"Why do you want to take me away?" The shopkeeper was already a little confused at this time, and he was laughing at the country man just now, why did he become the captain of the team after a while?
