Chapter 18: It's so hard to be a man

The addition of the bearded man saved the trip from a lot of unnecessary troubles, at least this trip was not as embarrassing as the last time, and he came back with nothing.

Most of the food was still refrigerated in the cave, and after the three of them had eaten the boiled meat, Binglin still didn't come back.

The three people who originally wanted to go to the hot springs found that they couldn't open the secret passage of the hot springs. In other words, in addition to the switch, Wei Xiaomo must have other ways to lock the secret passage.

"It seems that if we don't get beaten up violently, we won't have a chance to soak in the hot springs..."The monk said as he looked at the bearded man in disappointment.

The bearded man instantly became vigilant and said, "Then I'd rather never soak again!"

At this time, Binglin was shopping with Lao Feng and Wei Xiaomo in her arms!

It's not a big town, and the so-called three or four streets are more appropriate to say that the alleys are wider.

Different from the previous world, the buildings of the town are more like some small towns in his hometown of Lijiang, the tallest is only a three-story building, and most of the first floor is a small shop.

Some of the shops are built around a giant old tree, which is like a large umbrella that protects several small buildings under their branches.

The old tree was also divided into two or three floors, and the interior became the appearance of a small building.

Bing Lin walked around every shop dizzily, most of the things in the shop were similar to the previous world, the difference was that most of the things seemed to have aura, such as some medicine people walking around in glass jars by themselves, butterflies on hairpins would occasionally stir their wings, and some long-bearded plants danced without wind, exuding a little bit of light...

"Sister Xiaomo, what is the name of this town?" it seems to be very old?" Bing Lin asked curiously.

"This town only existed more than a hundred years ago, and it probably doesn't have a name yet. ”

"Huh, haven't you had a name for a hundred years?"

Wei Xiaomo smiled and said, "There are many such towns, but they just provide some convenience for some lonely ghosts and mountain and forest fairies." ”

There are not many people in the town, and it can even be said that it is very deserted. There are very few people who actually buy and sell.

Wei Xiaomo took Bing Lin to a treehouse teahouse on the hillside behind the town, and sat on the second floor drinking tea and snacks.

Bing Lin looked at the people who traded with all kinds of things to exchange, and asked curiously, "Sister Xiaomo, what are they using to buy things?"

"This kind of town is basically bartering, it's not late at night, it's late at night, it's still a little more lively here, the ghosts use Dan to buy and sell, the goblins use spars, and we use the Xudu coin. ”

Wei Xiaomo said that as soon as he turned over his palm, a purse smaller than a slap appeared in his hand, the purse was snow-white, and the hair flew in the wind like a living thing.

The purse was suspended in Wei Xiaomo's palm, and the knot automatically opened, floating out a two-finger-sized turquoise leaf.

Wei Xiaomo took the leaf and put it in Binglin's hand and said, "This is the Xudu coin." ”

Although the leaves are small, the veins are extremely clear, and if you look closely, you can see the energy flowing back and forth inside. It feels warm as jade in the palm of your hand.

Bing Lin looked at the blade in her hand with her eyes shining and said, "This must be very valuable, it is countless times better than a work of art..."

"You can't find this coin in this teahouse. ”

Wei Xiaomo said, and three soybean-sized pills floated out of his purse, one cyan, one milky white, and one blood-red.

"The hair and nails of ghosts and zombies will grow rapidly with their cultivation, which is born of the yin qi in their bodies that cannot be absorbed. ”

Wei Xiaomo pointed to the three pills on the table and said: "The cyan ones are made of their hair and are called Qingdan, the milky white nails are called Baidan, the blood-red ones are called Xindan, and they also have a very high-grade one called Lingdan, which I don't have for the time being." ”

Bing Lin picked up the three pills in turn and looked at them, as soon as the blood-red pills touched the whole person, it was like falling into an ice cave, and Lao Feng trembled all over his body, Bing Lin quickly withdrew his hand and didn't dare to touch it again.

Wei Xiaomo smiled with a prank on his face: "One hundred green pills for one white pill, and the heart pill can only be exchanged for one hundred white pills." The yin qi in this, I can't use it up in a while and a half when I refine it. ”

"The demons are basically ores. "There were a few square soybean-sized grains on the table again, and the colors were also different.

"These are refined ores, and refined ores are also the most inferior things in the trading variety, and only stones infused with spiritual energy are valuable. ”

Bing Lin didn't dare to take it again, but with the naked eye, she could see that one of the jet-black ores seemed to be a breathing lifeform, while the others were just ordinary feelings.

Wei Xiaomo looked outside and said: "In the future, someone will tell them how to distinguish their value, those who use Dan outside are not necessarily ghosts, and those who use stones are not necessarily demons, but these resources are controlled by themselves in their own hands, just like our Xudu Coin, which only we can make." It's just that they are endless..."

After Wei Xiaomo finished speaking, the people on the table inhaled their purses one after another, and Binglin handed over the Xudu coin and was also sucked into the purse lightly.

Bing Lin stared at the delicate purse in Wei Xiaomo's hand and said, "Sister Xiaomo, this purse is so beautiful, where did you buy it?"

Women may be inherently inherently intolerant of such things.

Wei Xiaomo smiled: "You can't buy this, you can put a lot of things in it, and it's no problem to fit ten old maples." ”

Looking at Binglin's surprised look, Wei Xiaomo said with a straight face: "I brought you out today to let you know more about the things in this world, and if you want to survive here, you still need to have a backer and housekeeping skills." ”

"That's... What am I going to learn..."

"Didn't you study medicine? Your previous family was in medicine, right? Our Wei family is too, we are making medicinal soup. ”

"These things I just showed you can be made into medicinal soup, and the absorption of medicinal soup is faster, and there are some secret recipes that only our Wei family has. ”

"Our Wei family is thin, if it weren't for the medicinal soup in our hands, there would be nothing for us here..."

"So, Binglin, in terms of cultivation, Taoist monks and monks are much stronger than you, if you want to gain a foothold here, if you want to protect Lao Feng, the best way is to learn to make medicinal soup. When you can give more and more forces the recipe they want, the more protection you get..."

Binglin asked, "But I'll still forget if I learn it." ”

Wei Xiaomo took Binglin's hand at this time and said, "That's why I asked you to learn." ”

"Our Wei family has been passed down from generation to generation, and the same system has been instilled, but unfortunately there has not been a genius for so many years. But if today is no longer the world of thousands of years ago, it is no longer possible to cope with the current situation..."

"The longer we are in this world, the easier it is for our minds to solidify, and you are different, you come from another place, you have time, and every time you start over, I believe that sooner or later you will find something that we can't find. We just need you to find an opportunity to make a difference, and that opportunity has the greatest probability of happening to you. Wei Xiaomo looked at Binglin hopefully and said.

Binglin was starting to get a little nervous, she didn't want to do anything earth-shattering or write history. Life is good now, and there are always new things popping up to satisfy your curiosity. I don't even feel like it's painful to wake up again and go back to the way I was at the beginning. Although it was hard to believe at first. But if that's the case, it doesn't seem to be bad.

"I... I'm afraid it will disappoint Sister Xiaomo..."

Wei Xiaomo pinched Binglin's face and said with a smile: "We can all wait... And do you know why the Taoist priest was willing to teach you a lot of things before?"

"Dao Chief, they... It should be because our fate and Lao Feng's fate are now tied together, and we don't want me to drag me back..."

Wei Xiaomo waved his hand and said, "His purpose is similar to mine, many times, the bottleneck of the master is broken through through the progress of the apprentice. But that's not the most important thing. ”

"In our contract, I summed it up in ten words, that is, 'clear water out of hibiscus, naturally carved'. That's my impression when I first saw it, and I guess that's the same with the Taoist priest. ”

"Although we all have a purpose, Ke Binglin, we can all find a bunch of people who want to learn, precisely because you are different from others. And we're not the kind of mentors who want to turn you into another version of ourselves. ”

"So, I will provide you with the resources you need as much as possible in my personal capacity, if it weren't for this child, you should have been in our Wei family at this time, instead of sitting in this little broken teahouse..."

Bing Lin looked at this small teahouse, a three-story small building, divided into a number of private rooms up and down, each of which was independent. You can see the view from the outside. This small teahouse built in a tree hole is located on the back hill of the whole town, and you can see the whole town at a glance.

Wei Xiaomo looked at Binglin and seemed to like this teahouse very much, and said, "If you like it, buy it here, just as your first medicinal soup base." ”

Binglin's eyes lit up in an instant, and she subconsciously touched her pocket, and what was still valuable on her body was the demon pill that was only the size of a fingernail and the string of Buddhist beads given by the monk.

Wei Xiaomo saw Binglin's thoughts and said with a smile: "I'll give you the money first, and I will also arrange someone to redecorate this place a little to make it look suitable." The expenses in the early stage are all my investment, and how about I get 10% of my income in the future?"

Is there really such a good thing?!!!

Binglin breathed a sigh of relief. Put the demon pill back in his pocket, pinched the corner of the pocket from the outside, and found that the demon pill was indeed still in his pocket, and his heart instantly patted the pocket and smiled sweeter than eating honey.

This kind of surprise is like just about to take out the only 10 yuan left to pay for the meal, the boss smiled and said that this consumption is free.... You just left and took two steps when the boss's voice suddenly came from behind you: "Hey, your tea eggs..."
