"What kind of plant is that, sir, but what kind of Horcrux is it?"

Listening to Bai Xuan's question, Yin Wanwu said slowly,

"The old man asked you to find it, naturally it is not a vulgar thing, this medicinal material is called Bishui Lantern Heart. ”

Bai Xuan's eyes turned,

"Blue Water Lantern Heart, why is this name so familiar?"

Yin Wanwu smiled,

"The heart of the blue water lamp, the sky and the water. Get it, turn magnolia, knot red elm, and see white vines. The source of Huang Xuan. ”

Bai Xuan frowned and whispered,

"Soul Chronicles?"

Yin Wanwu shook his head,

""Ancient Alchemy, it doesn't seem like what you said. ”

Bai Xuan patted his head,

"Eh, it's actually "Ancient Alchemy", I almost guessed it!"

Yin Wanwu smiled bitterly,

"Guess what, do you know what it does?"

Bai Xuan smiled faintly and said,

"The blue water lamp heart, refined at the same time as the white jade magnolia, the red practice elm, and the white vine flower, the soul source produced can greatly increase the chance of the Yellow Rank Soul Master advancing to the Xuan Rank. ”

Bai Xuan really knew the answer,

"I didn't expect the old man to be put on a table by your kid. ”

Although Yin Wanwu was a little unconvinced by this, he was actually very pleased, and it seemed that it was not in vain that he worked so hard to translate to Bai Xuan little by little.

Although I have read it in the book, but the real thing Bai Xuan is also the first time to see, come closer, this blue water lantern heart is wonderful, like lotus leaf-like leaves jade such as jade, the meridians are transparent, and the center of the lotus leaf, growing a small round ball, looking like a fruit and like a bud, at the moment is a light and a dark glow faint light.

"That's really right, although this blue water lamp heart is not particularly rare, but the effect is amazing, you know, in the process of advancing the grade of the soul master, once the advancement fails, it will be eaten by the soul power, and even the original rank will decline, and this blue water lamp heart can double the probability of the Yellow Rank Ninth Rank Soul Master advancing to the Xuan Rank Soul Master, it is simply magical. ”

Bai Xuan nodded and listened carefully, and suddenly said,

"Don't you need other medicinal herbs together?"

Yin Wanwu smiled,

"The other medicinal materials are all easy to get, but this blue water lamp heart is the most important main material, and the others are all refined together in order to make it exert its medicinal effect. ”

Bai Xuan nodded, and picked up a small pebble from the ground, Bai Xuan fiddled with the pebble, and suddenly used his soul power, only to see Bai Xuan wrap the pebble in his hand with soul energy,

"Look at me. ”

He could only say "hey" to Bai Xuan, and the pebble in his hand flew out like a blade, cutting off the stem of the blue water lamp heart.

Without support, the whole blue water lamp heart fell down, Bai Xuan grabbed it with his backhand, and the soul qi that wrapped the small pebbles suddenly spread out and turned into a net, and caught the falling blue water lamp heart impartially.

Then Bai Xuan clenched his fist and waved his hand, and that soul energy was like a fishing net that was loaded with a load, and it was taken into Bai Xuan's hands little by little.

Bai Xuan didn't pick it up with his hands, but directly put it into his bag with his heart, which he also learned from books.

It is said that it is best not to touch such medicinal materials directly with your hands, otherwise it is likely that when you need it, it will have lost its medicinal properties, and you will be able to collect it in the most vivid way possible.

In order to ensure that there are no accidents when refining.

Putting away the blue water lamp heart, Bai Xuan patted the heart of the waist and looked at the hidden way,

"Sir, let's go. ”

Yin Wanwu knew that Bai Xuan was anxious, so he didn't waste time anymore,

followed Bai Xuan back to the wooden bridge.

Not far after walking the wooden bridge, Bai Xuan saw a tall brick-laying gate, and three big characters were engraved on the door,

"Shimen Town"

Bai Xuan looked at the words and said with a slight feeling,

"Shimen Town, I'm afraid I haven't been here for three years, and even this entrance has changed so much, and I don't know if I'm here. ”

With that, he walked headlong into the stone gate towards the town.

This party just entered Shimen Town, and Bai Xuan was stunned.

Although he had long thought that Shimen Town must have changed greatly in the past few years, everything in front of him was something he had never expected.

The originally narrow streets have become spacious and tidy, and those dilapidated wooden houses and stalls have now become brand new inns and shops, and even the people in the town are many times more than three years ago, and the whole town is full of traffic, people come and go, and it is very lively.

Seeing this scene, Bai Xuan sighed from the bottom of his heart,

"It seems that in the past few years that I have been in the Bai family, I have really been a frog at the bottom of the well. ”

When Bai Xuan came to the town three years ago, he accompanied Bai Ao to get medicinal materials, at that time, Shimen Town was just a dilapidated town, because of poverty, so the price of herbs here was low, but I didn't expect that in the past three years, this Shimen Town has developed so rapidly, even the Bai family, which has developed well in recent years, is completely unable to achieve such prosperity in front of them.

Although Bai Xuan was shocked by the magnitude of this change, he also knew that he couldn't waste time on sighing.

Bai Xuan pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the shops on the side, there were many varieties of shops here, including medicinal herb shops, grocery stores, pawnshops, and even some shops selling strange things that Bai Xuan had never seen before.

If it were in normal times, this dazzling array of goods and shops of different styles would be enough for Bai Xuan to spend a day wandering around without being bored, but now, there was only one thought in his heart, that is, where did Bai Shushu go.

Sweeping through these shops, Bai Xuan immediately locked the inn not far away, just as he expected, he needed to use the fastest way to get Bai Shushu's clues.

Just as Bai Xuan was about to move towards the inn, suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves on the street, and the people on the street heard the sound of horses' hooves and flashed to both sides. The street, which was still crowded with people just now, actually gave way in an instant.

Bai Xuan was squeezed aside and couldn't move, seeing a team of people passing in front of him unhurriedly, the small team leading the way was wearing gray and black robes, and the other team following behind him was wearing military uniforms.

"What kind of people are these, such a big faction, that the people of the whole city actually give way to them?"

Bai Xuan was puzzled for a moment, and he could see that after this team of people walked away,

The crowd returned to its previous appearance, and Bai Xuan didn't think about it anymore.

"Whoever it is, it doesn't matter to me anyway. ”

Bai Xuan shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the inn.

"Stone Gate Inn".

Bai Xuan looked up at the huge gold-lettered plaque at the entrance of the inn, and looked at the inn twice, unlike the magnificent plaque at the door, the furnishings, decoration, and even the environment in this store were no different from what Bai Xuan saw three years ago.

Bai Xuan took two steps back from the door, looked at the golden plaque with a strange face, then rubbed his eyes, and looked towards the inn again,

"Strange thing, the name of this Shimen Inn sounds like a big inn in this town, why is it so dilapidated inside, and it doesn't match the gold-lettered signboard on the façade, is this the style of the town?"

Bai Xuan shook his head, feeling incomprehensible, and stepped into the store.

Seeing Bai Xuan's moon-white robe, gentle and elegant, and his extraordinary temperament, the innkeeper greeted him and asked with a smile,

"This son, are you going to be a tip or a hotel?"

Looking at the fat on the face of the innkeeper, he almost couldn't see his eyes, and he was grinning at Bai Xuan at the moment.

Bai Xuan looked at the shopkeeper, clenched his fists and smiled,

"No, shopkeeper, I just want to ask something, I have a..."

Before Bai Xuan could finish speaking, the shopkeeper interrupted,

"It turns out that Childe wants to inquire about the news, so it's easy to say, why don't you sit down first, and let's talk slowly?"

Seeing that the shopkeeper was so polite, Bai Xuan shook his head embarrassedly and said,

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, I don't have to, I just wanted to ask if you've ever seen a girl. ”

The shopkeeper didn't answer Bai Xuan's question, he still looked at Bai Xuan with a smile, and his short and fat hand was gently placed on Bai Xuan's arm.

"Childe, even if you're in a hurry, we can sit down and talk slowly, right?"

Seeing that this shopkeeper was so enthusiastic, Bai Xuan really couldn't shirk it anymore, and sighed and said,

"Oh well. ”

Seeing Bai Xuan's answer, the shopkeeper was busy grabbing Bai Xuan's arm and taking Bai Xuan to a private seat.

Although it is a private seat, it is too simple in this store, and Bai Xuan really did not distinguish the difference between this elegant seat and other seats.

I saw that after the shopkeeper signaled Bai Xuan to sit down, he slowly moved to the opposite couch and sat down.

"The shopkeeper..."

Bai Xuanjian was just about to speak, but was interrupted by a call from the shopkeeper,

"Come on, make a good pot of tea for this son!"

I only heard the second shopkeeper in the distance call "Okay",

Only then did the shopkeeper turn to Bai Xuan, still with a kind expression with a smile,

"What news does Childe want to inquire about?"

Bai Xuan exhaled, thinking that this shopkeeper was finally willing to listen to me, that is, Dao,

"I'm looking for a girl below. ”

"Oh, girl?"

Bai Xuan could obviously feel that the shopkeeper was too fat, and he had just sat down in this position, so he looked a little unbearable, so he changed his posture again, and then scratched his chin with his stubby fingers and said,

"We're all serious dealers, and as for the girl, if the son can make a satisfactory price..."

Bai Xuan naturally heard the shopkeeper's words, and hurriedly waved his hand,

"No, no, no, the shopkeeper misunderstood, the girl you said below is the sister below, but now she is separated from her sister. My sister is fifteen years old, with long black hair, not tall, she should be wearing a white silk skirt today, long and sweet, I don't know if the shopkeeper has ever seen it?"

The shopkeeper nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly slapped the couch a few times with his hand, and shouted,

"Where's the tea, what about the tea, how long have you been sitting here, how are you doing?!"

Mo said that he was busy with the shopkeeper, and even Bai Xuan was startled by the sudden roar of the shopkeeper.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was so hot, another shopkeeper not far away hurriedly brought a pot of tea over, and walked respectfully in front of the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, your tea. ”

Who knew that after listening to the shopkeeper, he stretched out his hand and slapped the shopkeeper's head, and said angrily,

"What's my tea, your tea!

After listening to the training, the shopkeeper walked up to Bai Xuan tremblingly, carefully brewing the tea, Bai Xuan was busy thanking, and was about to persuade the shopkeeper not to be angry, but he saw that the greasy and fat face in front of him was full of smiles at the moment.

Bai Xuan smiled secretly in his heart,

"This shopkeeper really has a face in front of him and behind him. ”

After making tea, the shopkeeper bowed and was about to leave, and the condescending face of the shopkeeper appeared again.

"Who, you, come here!"

Listening to the call, the shopkeeper hunched his waist and ran to the shopkeeper's side, and he didn't know what the shopkeeper said in the shopkeeper's ear, the shopkeeper nodded and ran out of the inn.

Bai Xuan didn't have the heart to care about other people's affairs, so he picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip,

"Oh my God, what kind of tea is this, why is it all sour?"

As he spoke, he opened the lid of the cup and saw that the tea leaves in this cup were soft in shape, the bottom of the leaves was not extended, and there were some red leaves and red stems.

Hearing Bai Xuan say this, the shopkeeper's smiling face didn't change.

"Childe, I don't understand, this is my Shimen Town's special fairy tea, and it was originally this taste. ”

Bai Xuan scolded secretly in his heart,

"What kind of fairy tea, this tea is clearly a defective and inferior tea that is not good for old tea, and it is really nonsense with your eyes open. ”

Although he was angry, Bai Xuan didn't want to care, put down the tea, and waved his hand.

"That's it, don't talk about this tea, the girl I just talked about, have you ever seen the shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper smiled, fiddling with the big gold ring on his finger,

"I look like I'm from out of town, and in our place, there is such a rule. ”

Bai Xuan thought to himself, why didn't this shopkeeper answer his own question again, sighed, picked up the teacup without thinking, but then put it down again,

"Rules?"

The shopkeeper's face smiled even brighter, and his small eyes were all buried in the fat.

"The girl that Childe said, the villain has really seen it, but I don't know how much this news is worth to Childe?"

Bai Xuan didn't expect that the so-called rules of the shopkeeper were actually bargaining, but Bai Xuan was right when he thought about it, people are in business, and they have no obligation to help themselves.

"The shopkeeper, you make a price, if the news is true, there will be a heavy thank you afterwards. ”

Seeing that Bai Xuan agreed so happily, the shopkeeper immediately laughed, patted Bai Xuan's shoulder and said,

"Childe, you are really good, I like to make this kind of bold friends. This seat money is regarded as my invitation to the son. ”

Bai Xuan smiled faintly, thanked the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper touched the bulging belly, and continued,

"Then let's not talk darkly, the news is 50,000 gold, and the tea money will give you a discount, count you 5,000 gold, after the matter is completed, you will look at it?"

The shopkeeper's asking price, Bai Xuan's eyes were about to pop out, and he was speechless with his mouth open.

Seeing Bai Xuan's surprised expression, the shopkeeper sneered,

"Look at the son, you look like a person, can't you give this money?"

Bai Xuan glared at the fat man in front of him, and suddenly became angry, pointing to the tea ceremony on the table,

"You said this kind of garbage costs 5,000 gold, why don't you grab it?"

Then I thought that all the coils that Bai Ao prepared for Bai Xuan before going out added up to only 100,000 gold, and the shopkeeper asked for 50,000 gold as soon as he opened his mouth, not that Bai Xuan was reluctant, but this was a little too unreasonable.

Seeing Bai Xuan's angry appearance, the shopkeeper said coldly,

"As I said earlier, we have a rule. ”

As soon as the words fell, Bai Xuan saw the shopkeeper who had just gone out coming in from outside the door, and behind him, it was the gray-robed man and the soldier in uniform that Bai Xuan had seen on the street before, but now there was only one gray robe and four military uniforms, which was completely inferior to the previous battle.

Bai Xuan frowned and stared at the shopkeeper's words,

"What do you mean by that?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Bai Xuandao,

"These people wearing military uniforms are the soldiers of my Shimen Town Fang Battalion, who specialize in dealing with people who make trouble in my Shimen Town, as for this gray-robed brother, that is the disciple of the Gray Sect, how is it, do you know what it means now?"

Bai Xuan was a little inexplicable,

"What does the Zhenfang Battalion Soldier and the Gray Sect disciple have to do with me?"

With a sneer, the shopkeeper ignored Bai Xuan and ran to the disciple of the Gray Sect by himself.

"Your Excellency has worked hard all the way. ”

Seeing the shopkeeper's efforts to nod and bow down, Bai Xuan felt ridiculous in his heart,

"Say, who is so short-sighted?"

Seeing the arrogant appearance of that Gray Sect disciple, Bai Xuan was puzzled in his heart,

"Gray Sect, I seem to have heard my father mention it, but I only know that it is a Jianghu sect, why is it so arrogant?"

Looking at the soldiers of the town camp behind the disciples of the Gray Sect, following the disciples of the Gray Sect like little brothers,

"Could it be that this Shimen Town is now managed by the Gray Sect?"

Bai Xuan knew that if these small towns wanted to develop rapidly, they would naturally go to some Jianghu sects, if the Gray Sect was really the manager behind Shimen Town, then it was no wonder that Shimen Town had developed so rapidly in recent years.

But it is normal for this town to combine with the Jianghu sect, and it is not uncommon for some big towns to have more than one or two local forces.

It's just that at this moment, Bai Xuan feels that this atmosphere is a little weird.

I saw the disciples of the Gray Sect walk up to Bai Xuan and look at it,

"Is that you?

Bai Xuan seemed to understand what the shopkeeper had asked the shopkeeper to do before.

Bai Xuan hugged his fist,

"My lord must have misunderstood, this tea..."

The Gray Sect disciple didn't listen to Bai Xuan's continuation, and interrupted,

"I ask if you didn't give the money?"

Bai Xuan thought to himself, how could no one in this Shimen Town be willing to listen to others, and he just wanted to explain,

"But this tea..."

"Lao Tzu asked if you didn't give money!"

Hearing the roar of the disciples of the Gray Sect, the soldiers of the Zhenfang Battalion on the side also immediately stepped forward to surround Bai Xuan, only the shopkeeper on the side covered his mouth and laughed secretly.

Bai Xuan finally understood that the so-called rules were like this, black-hearted businessmen, plus black-hearted stewards, specially slaughtered these outsiders, sat on the ground and raised the price, and then there must be a share of accounts, no wonder this Shimen Town has a magnificent appearance, it turns out that as long as you step into this door, you don't want to go out without paying a price.

Bai Xuan sneered and stared at the shopkeeper's words,

"It seems that you don't know what I want to know, I'm afraid you tricked me into coming in just for this cup of tea, right?"

The shopkeeper was silent, and continued to smile and play with the big gold ring in his hand.

Seeing that Bai Xuan actually dared to ignore himself, the Gray Sect disciple said with some anger,

"Do you want to give you money, if you don't give it to Lao Tzu, I'll arrest you and go back to the barracks prison!"

In normal times, Bai Xuan would not be able to swallow this breath, but now, if the Gray Sect really manages Shimen Town, it is a very unwise choice to conflict with them, not only will it delay Bai Xuan to find someone, but it may even be in deep trouble for himself.

Bai Xuan, who had been thinking about it repeatedly, turned around and took out five thousand gold from his heart and threw it on the table, glaring at the Gray Sect disciple viciously,

"I've paid the money, can I go?"

The disciple of the Gray Sect opened the bag on the table with his hand, and when he saw that there was really five thousand gold inside, he sneered and waved his hand,

". ”

The disciples of the Gray Sect gave an order, and the soldiers of the town camp surrounding Bai Xuan made a way, and the shopkeeper on the side actually greeted Bai Xuan with a smile.

"Thank you, Childe, Childe often comes to patronize!"

Bai Xuan suppressed the resentment in his heart, and strode out of the inn without looking back.

Out of the inn, straight down the lively street,

"I get angry when I think of what happened just now, what kind of world is this?"

Bai Xuan said hatefully.

"Outside of the gold, the defeat is in it. Looking at the glamorous appearance,

It's so ugly and filthy inside. ”

I don't know when, Yin Wanwu slowly appeared beside Bai Xuan, looking at what happened to Bai Xuan, Yin Wanwu sighed.

Bai Xuan tried to calm his state of mind, sighed and said,

"No wonder my father let me stay in the Bai family all the time, the outside world is really not so simple, you look at me, I was cheated of 5,000 gold after only half a day away from home, it's a joke. ”

Seeing Bai Xuan's self-deprecating appearance, he said without comfort,

"The old man knows that you have a good heart, which is a good thing, if you can maintain a pure heart in this troubled world, it is really great. It's just that sometimes, it's important to protect yourself. ”

Bai Xuan smiled and shook his head,

"Sir, don't comfort you..."

Halfway through the words, Bai Xuan suddenly felt a churning in his heart, and Bai Xuan was busy searching, and only then did he discover the source of the churning.

I don't know what's going on, the word "white" on that piece of amber and jade suddenly flashed with a strange light at this moment, the word "white" flickered and dimmed, ups and downs, and Yin Wanwu looked at Puyu's reaction and frowned,

"What's going on?"

Bai Xuan stared at Puyu motionlessly, and suddenly raised his head,

"Dream?"
