Chapter Twenty-Three: The Jade Talisman

Li Hou's attention couldn't help but be attracted by the stall in front of him, compared to other stalls, the stall owner here did not shout like the others to attract customers, but quietly watched the passers-by, from time to time to tidy up the items on his stall.

The things on this small stall were extremely scarce, and unlike the other stalls that were covered with bits and pieces, they were just three or two small objects.

The things on the stall were none other than the trading items that Li Hou had just seen in Huiyuan Hall, a one-time prop used by cultivators to fight spells, and the yellow paper with wonderful runes engraved on it was also used as a convenient item for the talisman.

Because of his experience in the Spirit Stone Fragment Stall, Li Hou would subconsciously use his divine sense back and forth when he stood in front of each stall he was interested in, probing whether the items on each stall had or still retained spirituality, and whether they were the relics and remains left behind by the real cultivator's fighting method.

However, what made Li Hou feel strange was that he had obviously not yet reached the condensation period, but it seemed that the divine consciousness born because of the phoenix essence was driven by his repeated efforts without feeling tired at all, and there was no side effect of dizziness and dizziness after the excessive use of the divine consciousness by the cultivators in the condensation period recorded in Pei Yuan Gong.

Although Li Hou felt strange about this, he didn't care much about it, just another miracle effect of the phoenix essence.

"The style of this jade is really strange, could it be that this is also a spirit stone?"

Li Hou lowered his upper body and looked curiously at the rune seal items on the stall, and at the same time, his divine sense also began to move continuously, constantly sweeping over the rune seal, and he could clearly feel that the strange stripes on the rune seal did contain strange fluctuations, similar to true qi, but it was more refined, it should be the true yuan that the cultivator could only refine after reaching the foundation building period.

After all, the minimum condition for a cultivator who can make a talisman seal is to have a foundation building period.

There are not many runes on the stall, but there are only eight talismans of three types, among which there are three runes with a wonderful heat after the divine sense is swept, two runes with a strange and distorted meaning, and finally three runes with a refreshing and cold atmosphere.

The rune seal reveals a miracle, and it seems to be different from the waste rune in Huang Da's hands, it is a real finished rune seal, which only needs to be activated by using true qi or divine sense, and the power of the rune engraved on it can be activated, revealing the magic power that only cultivators can cast.

However, in addition to using the method of activating true qi and divine consciousness, in fact, the rune seal can also be activated by the method of tearing it by external force, but its effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

But at this moment, what Li Hou cares about is not the eight rune seals, but on the side of the rune seal, it seems to be a strange jade rune made of spirit stone as a material, and it is also depicted with runes that only exist on the rune seal, which is extremely wonderful, but ordinary people who don't understand the way of runes will only think that this is a fantasy of children's graffiti.

Li Hou's divine sense once again penetrated his body, and he touched the jade talisman through a distance far beyond the extension of ordinary contemplation stage monks, and tightly surrounded it, savoring the wonder on the rune.

However, unlike the rune seal, although he could also feel the flow of the true element, Li Hou could not easily distinguish the characteristics of the true element flowing on the rune. I only feel that it is extremely condensed, dense but not leaky, and self-contained.

"Eight rune seals, three each of the Yellow Rank Lower Grade Talisman Seal Red Mars and the Frost Cone, one of each of the five red copper coins, two of the Yellow Rank Medium Grade Talisman Seal Concealment Talismans, and one of each of the fifteen red copper coins." Just as Li Hou was curiously looking at the jade talisman and his divine sense was constantly sweeping back and forth, the stall owner suddenly said coldly.

Li Hou looked at the stall owner strangely, this was just a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes, with a small beard on his chin, a flat expression on his face, and the whole person revealed an elegant atmosphere, like a person who read poetry, rather than a small stall vendor mixed in the market.

In Li Hou's observation, this man was just an ordinary person, not to mention the divine consciousness of a true cultivator, and he didn't even possess the simplest true qi cultivation, but he was able to assert the names of the eight talismans in one bite. And it is not far from ten, the red spark and the frost cone correspond to those few hot and cold talisman seals as soon as they hear it, and there is not much difference between them and the results of Li Hou's divine sense scanning.

To be honest, Li Hou did have the intention of buying, after all, this is a rare genuine item in the bazaar, especially a few items that can have practical utility except for miscellaneous fragments.

However, Li Hou is also a person who runs a commissary and often contacts suppliers, and these transactions are the most urgent, otherwise they will be slaughtered as pigs, although it is only a millimeter difference at that time, but the accumulation is also a considerable amount.

Therefore, Li Hou was also silent for a while, looking directly into the eyes of the middle-aged man without care, with a very casual appearance.

"I saw that you didn't shout at all to attract customers, so I came over strangely to take a look, but I didn't expect you to speak amazingly, compared with other stalls that talk nonsense, what you said is really the head, and even the names and grades of things have been made up." Li Hou chuckled lightly, pretending to think that what the other party said was propaganda used to attract attention.

In the face of Li Hou's smile, the middle-aged man's face did not change much, he was still as plain as ever, and said softly: "If you buy it, then pay for it." If you don't buy it, then you don't have to get in the way of others. ”

"Scholars never exaggerate or exaggerate. In the lower ancestors, there were people who had entered the Xiuzhen sect to do miscellaneous labor, responsible for dealing with fragments of waste talismans, and they also knew some knowledge of talismans and left them to their descendants, so they can ensure that the eight talismans here are really picked up from the place where the cultivators fight, and their names and effects can be brought to you one by one, which is absolutely true. ”

Between the words, the middle-aged man's mouth revealed an irrefutable confidence, and he had already seen through the buyer's common methods, and completely blocked Li Hou's desire to use the method of swaying his conversation to buy eight talismans and strange jade talismans at a low price.

Although Li Hou didn't know how much purchasing power the red copper coins had in the Great Liang Kingdom, but it would definitely not be a small amount, and the middle-aged man suddenly opened his mouth to say that there were five red copper coins and one talisman seal, and even fifteen coins, the total price was two more red copper coins than Li Hou's whole body belongings.

This is not good news for Li Houke, in addition to the eight talisman seals, Li Houke also fell in love with that peculiar jade talisman. The middle-aged man just said the price of the talisman, if he asked for the price of the jade talisman again, then Li Hou really didn't know what to do.

You can't let Li Hou rob him in broad daylight, he can't do such a thing.

"One price, forty red copper coins, I want all your things!" Li Hou gritted his teeth and pretended to have made a very difficult decision.

But the middle-aged man didn't eat oil and salt, and refused to let go, stunned and refused to let go of the price of sixty red copper coins.

In fact, these sixty red copper coins are already the price of jumping off the building to sell in the truth, in the important capital of Daliang, but in the hands of those who know the goods, it is extremely reluctant to buy one of these sixty red copper coins, not to mention eight talismans, and the current price is still set by the middle-aged man in consideration of the financial resources of the buyers who came to the market.

If it weren't for the fact that the middle-aged man couldn't bear it, and he didn't even have the money to go to the nearest capital, this unprecedented price would really be rare in a hundred years.

However, this is something that Li Hou does not know, because not to mention the price of the talisman seal only known to the high-level rich among the mortals in the Yuanhua Realm, Li Hou does not even know the purchasing power of the red copper coin.

"I said you're ......" Li Hou was almost so angry that he couldn't speak, "You are really, it's rare to have someone like me come to buy your things, but you are not relaxed at all." According to the current situation of the bazaar, if you want to sell the talisman, it will be difficult to reach the sky, so it is better to give it to me as soon as possible, so as to save yourself the time of continuing to waste time here. ”

Li Hou said this angrily, but the middle-aged man was slightly moved, he was originally a child of a family, he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, but unfortunately his family was in the middle, although he was full of poetry and books, but it didn't help, and he could only barely eat and wear.

This time, I was lucky enough to collect a few talismans used by cultivators, and I wanted to rely on this opportunity to make a good profit, but I didn't expect that there were sudden rumors of fakes in the bazaar, which caused the middle-aged man to be plain on the surface, but he was already irritable in his heart, and now it is rare for anyone to be willing to buy his talismans, and he really doesn't want to miss the opportunity.

The middle-aged man closed his eyes and muttered for a while, but finally relentlessly, and said with a wave of his hand: "No two prices, fifty red copper coins, will never change again." ”

Li Hou couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard it, but he hadn't forgotten the jade talisman he cared about the most, so he gritted his teeth and said with a pretending heartache: "Okay!" Fifty is fifty, but you still have to give me that jade talisman. Li Hou tried his best to act like a stingy person, and he didn't forget to get some other benefits in addition to the pain in his flesh.

The middle-aged man set his eyes on the jade talisman, this thing was found together with the talisman at the scene of the cultivator's struggle, although he also placed the jade talisman on the stall, but he didn't know much about the value of the jade talisman, only because of the knowledge left by the ancestor to judge that the lines on the jade talisman were indeed runes, so he put it together with the talisman seal, in fact, what it was was not very clear.

Now it is rare for Li Hou to bid for fifty red copper coins, which is a large amount of money that can allow him to live a carefree life for three years and five years, so the middle-aged man will no longer ink, out of sight, put away the package skin on the ground, handed it to Li Hou's eyes, and at the same time stretched out his hand to ask Li Hou for the fifty red copper coins that should be paid.

Li Hou was also very polite, and immediately counted out eight red copper coins from the cloth bag that Huang Dashuang handed over to him before, and then handed the entire cloth bag to the middle-aged man, and took the package from the man's hand.

After the man counted the number of red copper coins, he took out a piece of white paper from his arms and handed it to Li Hou, Li Hou took a cursory look, which was recording the name and utility of the eight runes in his hand, and then said no more, put away the package and turned to leave, and at the same time, his divine sense quietly moved, and received the runes and jade talismans in the package into the space ring.

After leaving the East Street Market, Li Hou did not ask a random passer-by to ask for the prescription of the Sifang Inn as Huang Dashuang said before, but walked towards the outside of the town.
