Episode 26 Lynda's preparation
The fat steward saw that Lin Da really planned to buy it, and hurriedly said: "Oh! It turns out that the immortal master wants it! Our spirit stone has just been collected from a mining team, and it is definitely good and cheap! The immortal master wants this kind of first-order spirit stone, and it needs ten gold coins each!"
"Ten gold coins?!" Linda gasped in his heart, he didn't expect this to be an ordinary stone that could be sold for such a high price. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he also learned a little about the prices and residents' consumption level here in Xiaoyu County in the past few days, the monthly expenditure of an ordinary family is about a silver coin, five silver coins can be worth about a gold coin, this spirit stone needs ten gold coins, isn't it an ordinary family's expenditure for 4 years? !
"It turns out that cultivators really can't afford to be supported by ordinary families!" Lin Da secretly exclaimed in his heart.
Lin Da didn't know, in fact, among the cultivators, the price of spirit stones was far from reaching this high price, nor was it scarce to this extent. It's just that in order to scrape the wealth of the people, the ruler of Xiuzhen deliberately raised the spirit stone to such an incredible level, and adopted the method of monopoly management, using this means to restrict the cultivation of the people's loose cultivation, so the reason why the spirit stone has such an outrageous price.
This is true for spirit stones, as well as other magic weapons, talismans, medicinal herbs, and so on. Only then did Linda notice that there was an inconspicuous sign hanging in the middle of the store, which indicated the prices of various goods sold in the store, and the cheapest of them was actually this spirit stone!
But Lynda had a need to buy it. He hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a heavy small cloth bag from his arms, opened it and poured it on the counter, and asked, "I don't have gold coins, can you see these gold sands?"
The bag of gold sand that Lin Da took out was the minerals found on Blue Star Island, and before going out this time, he thought that it was possible to trade with local humans, so he took out some of it and brought it with him, but he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
"Oh, it's gold sand? Let the villain take a look first..."The fat steward was extremely reluctant to pick up the gold sand and check it, and took out a scale to weigh it, and kept calculating the proportion and value of the gold in the gold sand.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind the fat steward, "Don't forget it! this Brother Lin wants a spirit stone, let's give him one!"
As soon as these words came out, Linda and the fat steward were immediately surprised. Shen Bing, who was playing with a magic weapon not far away, didn't notice that Lin Da was trading here, also jumped over and shouted excitedly, "Grandpa!
It was none other than Shen Wen, the magistrate of Xiaoyu County, who had just come from outside the store with a few elders, and happened to hear the conversation between Lin Da and the fat steward just now, looking at Lin Da's eyes suddenly lit up, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Brother Lin is also a person who cultivates the truth, and he will not check it in the next moment, please forgive me!"
"County Magistrate Shen misunderstood! I'm not a cultivator, and buying this spirit stone is just a momentary curiosity!" Lin Da saw Shen Wen coming, and hurriedly bowed his hand, and at the same time immediately explained.
Shen Wen stepped forward and looked at Lin Da carefully, and saw that Lin Da did not have the unique spiritual pressure of a cultivator, although he had doubts, he reluctantly believed his words. After half a ring, he said, "Since Brother Lin wants this spirit stone, how can we collect your money?
Lin Da hurriedly refused: "How can this work! This spirit stone is so precious, how can Lin Mou bear it?! County magistrate, don't be joking!"
Shen Wen's tone sank, and he said sincerely: "Brother Lin, don't be polite, although this spirit stone is precious, how can it be worthy of your life-saving grace to your granddaughter?
Lin Da couldn't refuse, and seeing that Shen Wen really wanted to give it to him, he chose one as a last resort and accepted it. Shen Bing, who was on the side, immediately jumped over, asked him for a spirit stone to watch, and shouted, "It turns out that Brother Lin, you are really a cultivator!
Lin Da hurriedly analyzed the excuse, Shen Wen saw that his granddaughter was messing around, stepped forward and pulled it over, and said to Lin Da: "If Brother Lin has any other needs, even if you mention it to you, you can tell your granddaughter to do it." ”
Lin Da hurriedly said: "Don't dare! I'm just curious, just walk around, don't bother the county magistrate too much!"
The two talked a few more words, and Lin Da left under the pretext of not disturbing Shen Wen to look at the store, Shen Bing originally wanted to leave with Lin Da, but was strictly ordered by Shen Wen to stay in the store. Looking at the back of Lin Da's departure, a subtle light flashed in Shen Wen's eyes.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Lin Da couldn't wait to take out the spirit stone, and at the same time, he also took out the small knife magic weapon that he had been carrying in his arms. Although this magic weapon comes from the earth, its form and function are exactly the same as those here, and it is also a combat magic weapon. In the place of the handle, there is a stone the size of a thumb, which is the powerful energy that this stone provides to the magic weapon.
And the stone looked exactly like the one he had brought back from the shop.
The knife magic weapon was his important combat weapon, although he used another mysterious gem to replenish his energy when he was on Blue Star Island, he didn't know what danger he would encounter, so he decided to buy one more spirit stone just in case, which is why Lin Da knew that the spirit stone was so expensive, but still insisted on buying it.
Lin Da removed the original spirit stone of the knife magic weapon, installed the newly purchased spirit stone, and recited the qi magic trick in his heart, and the knife magic weapon suddenly emitted a shining light, which could inspire a powerful attack thunderbolt at any time. Seeing that the spirit stone was available, Lin Da immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Looking at the magic weapon and spirit stone, Lin Da fell into deep thought at this time.
The magic weapons, spirit stones and other things he saw in the store were similar to the small knife magic weapons and spirit stones from the earth in his hands, and the magic weapons used by Tang Long, Ivanov and others were also similar.
After some thought and speculation, Linda vaguely felt that there might be a similar monk on Earth. There are many mythical characters in human history, although modern people think that those are just myths and legends, but for the ancients it is not necessarily, those mythical characters are more likely to be the cultivators of the earth.
For example, the gods of the West, Jesus, and the gods of the East are more numerous, such as the Jade Emperor, the Buddha, Guanyin, and the small ones are like the little demons in various myths and legends. But if it's just myths and legends, why do all parts of the planet that are not connected to each other, whether in Asia or Europe, have similar myths and legends, and what is the matter?
And since those cultivators are so powerful, why haven't they left anything behind in the world? And only a few ordinary magic weapons have been left in various corners and have become sacred relics for worshippers in later generations, and in modern times, all cultivators have disappeared one by one, how can this be explained?
Linda tossed and turned, but couldn't figure it out.
"Forget it! I'll think about these questions later!" Linda touched the spirit stone on the handle again, and suddenly remembered one more thing, that is, the mysterious bead he had just obtained when he broke through the wormhole.
On Blue Star Island, he, Grant and others had studied the mysterious beads carefully, and found that this thing had the function of outputting huge energy, and it was extremely familiar with the function of the spirit stone. The difference is that it is an important factor in the formation of wormholes, and it is completely different from ordinary spirit stones. In this way, that mysterious bead must have a huge value that they would never have imagined, and it can be regarded as a kind of treasure in the eyes of cultivators.
Since ancient times, there have been countless things that have been guilty of it, if the orb they got is really some kind of treasure, with such a weak power of the Blue Star Clan in this world, there is absolutely no power to protect this treasure, if it is discovered by some ill-intentioned cultivators, it is also very possible to snatch the treasure and kill people. In this way, they must not divulge the discovery of this treasure.
Through his observations in the county these days, as well as through various books, Lin Da knows that the Terran Continent and even the entire Otherworld, whether it is the cultivation realm or the mortal world, abides by the law of the jungle, and everything is respected by the strong and the strong, and anyone can do whatever they want as long as they have enough strength. What laws and regulations, what benevolence and morality, here are just the reasons for the weak, and they are completely different from the modern civilization on the earth. Thinking of this, a sense of helplessness and fear suddenly rose in Linda's heart, and he couldn't help but feel a deep worry about the mortals here and their future fate.
"These things will change one day!" thought to Linda.
While holding the knife weapon, he also felt that another hard object under his armpit was his beloved Desert Eagle pistol. Taking out these two things, Lin Da looked left and right, thinking about the various dangers that the Blue Star Clan might encounter on the Terran Continent in the future, and suddenly clenched his weapon, and his heart was very excited.
