Chapter Seventy-One: The Mysterious Shopkeeper Ding
The name of the shopkeeper Ding is known to everyone in Shenglongfang City, but no one knows his true origin, not even his name, in the hundreds of years that he presided over Jubaozhai, everyone called him the shopkeeper Ding.
He is an all-round talent, whether it is for medicinal materials or refining materials, as long as the scripture has appeared in the Xuanwu Continent, there is nothing he does not know.
He is the person with the best personality in the entire Shenglongfang City, no matter what time it is, he has his signature smile on his face, and he has never blushed with anyone.
But he is also the most famous miser, as long as the price is negotiated, it is impossible to miss him a spirit stone, he can ink with you for a spirit stone for most of the day, until you compromise.
No one wants to delay his work for a spirit stone, if he doesn't bring enough spirit stones, he can only reluctantly put down the items he has chosen, go home and raise enough spirit stones to come over.
The Medicine God Valley does not allow outsiders to come to the Fang Market, because the prices of all the goods here are about three levels lower than those of the outside world, and most of the businesses are not for making money, but for the convenience of the disciples of the Medicine God Valley.
Of course, those casinos and Fengyue places are exceptions, but they are much more expensive than the outside world, and most of the people who go in and out of there are rich people from the Medicine God Valley, and the high-level people in the Medicine God Valley have a bit of a concept of killing the rich and helping the poor.
Shopkeeper Ding is the only unrestrained outsider in the entire Fang City, the current valley owner Qin Yunhe brought him back to the Medicine God Valley a hundred years ago, when Murong Xinlei was already the hall master of the Caitang, and the shopkeeper Ding was entrusted to Murong Xinlei by the valley owner from then on, so that he became a shopkeeper in Jubao Zhai.
Shopkeeper Ding is also this Medicine God Valley, except for the valley owner, the only person who enters and exits the Medicine God Valley does not need any interrogation, he can go out at any time, and he can enter at any time, no matter who it is, he is not allowed to investigate the reason for his entry and exit from the Medicine God Valley.
This is a right that the five hall masters do not have, but he rarely uses this power, and in a hundred years, no one has seen him leave the Medicine God Valley.
At the beginning, many people had secretly investigated the identity of this mysterious Ding shopkeeper, but they didn't gain anything, only knowing that he had an extraordinary relationship with the current valley lord Qin Yunhe.
Over time, no one was interested in his identity anymore, until today, a hundred years later, the people of the Medicine God Valley have forgotten his past, and only know that he is a loyal shopkeeper, waiting in the Treasure Pavilion for a hundred and ten years, and doing his duty.
The Medicine God Valley is not only the disciples of the instrument hall who like to refine weapons, nor the disciples of the Dan hall who like alchemy, the disciples of other halls, there are also many people who like refining and alchemy, some of them are simply for personal hobbies, and some are to improve their refining and alchemy level, once they reach a certain height, they can be recruited into the instrument hall or the Dan hall and become the disciples of the instrument hall and the Dan hall, so as to get more than double the salary of other halls.
Disciples with these hobbies naturally don't have too many refining tools and alchemy materials in their hands, so they can only go to the shops in Shenglongfang City to buy them.
In addition, there are also some disciples who go out for trials and bring back some materials, which need to be sold into spirit stones in exchange for daily necessities.
Jubao Zhai does such a business, collect the materials in the hands of the trial disciples, and sell them to those disciples who love alchemy and refining at a higher price, so as to provide them with convenience, because the price is cheap, and the popularity of the Ding shopkeeper is very good, so the business of Jubao Zhai has always been good.
There are also finished pills and weapons for sale in Jubao Zhai, and now Bai Lingxue is standing in front of the display cabinet of finished pills, looking at an egg-sized, brilliant pill, his eyes are flowing, as if he wants to get his hands on it.
After looking at it for a while, he sighed slightly, and left there with a reluctant face, he didn't have a spirit stone, he couldn't afford the pill at all, and he was embarrassed to open his mouth to Qi Tian, besides, even if he asked him to buy it for himself, he wouldn't necessarily agree.
Qi Tian's character, Bai Lingxue had already learned when he was shopping just now, but if the price was a little more expensive, even if he liked it, he would not buy it for himself, no matter how much he begged him, he would not compromise, so Bai Lingxue did not speak, and reluctantly left there, but he still couldn't help but glance back.
There were not many guests in the hall, which was a little inconsistent with Qi Tian's imagination of busyness, but the only few guests, seeing Qi Tian coming here, their eyes showed a puzzled light.
This kid is recognized as a swinger who has nothing to do, and he usually patronizes those Fengyue places and casino card halls, why is he interested in coming to this kind of place today?
Someone saw Bai Lingxue behind Qi Tian, and suddenly realized that this kid must have just met a beautiful woman, and in order to win the hearts of the beauties, he put on a serious appearance and led people to Jubao Zhai, so that the beauty felt that he had elegant taste.
Many people are not convinced, it is estimated that this kid doesn't even know a few refining materials, and he dares to pretend to be elegant?
Qi Tian doesn't care what others think of him, his current image inherits the glorious history of the unlucky guy, and it is deeply ingrained in the hearts of the disciples of the Medicine God Valley, it is impossible for them to change their minds for a moment, only when they become strong, they will be impressed by themselves.
Walking in front of the crystal display case, directly bypassing the display cabinet of those elixir medicinal materials, Qi Tian was not interested in those elixirs, and walked straight to the display cabinet where the refining materials were placed, looking at the strange-shaped refining materials one by one, and his eyes were shining.
In the display cabinet made of crystal, there are all kinds of ores, dazzling, most of them are minerals of the ground level or above, and there are even heaven-level and Xuan-level, but the higher level is not seen.
Among them, there are many ores that Qi Tian has never seen, and he can't even name them, so he realized how little knowledge he has about refining materials, and it seems that he will have to hurry up and learn the functions and uses of various materials in the future.
After a while, Qi Tian discovered the space material he needed, which was also a sub-grade material at the ground level, and the price was not expensive, Qi Tian bought it without hesitation, quietly sent it into the Xuanhuang Decree space, and handed it over to the Creation Boy.
After buying the space materials, Qi Tian's task today has been completed, and his mood is much more relaxed, watching slowly in front of the counter, under the ore in the display case, most of them are pressed with a piece of paper, and the name of the ore is on the paper, and some basic usage.
Taking this opportunity, Qi Tian wanted to enrich his knowledge of these materials, so as not to see these things outside in the future, because he was not familiar with their properties, and missed them.
Suddenly, Qi Tian's eyes lit up, and he actually found a saltpeter crystal in the corner of the display case, which was not large, only about a foot square. I don't know how long it has been there, it's covered with dust.
The Xuanwu Continent didn't know much about the use of saltpeter, but they were just used to make some cold attribute weapons.
Due to various reasons, there are not many people who practice ice attribute exercises, so the demand is not very large, and the grade of saltpeter is not very high-frequency, and high-level ice cold weapons do not use this ore at all.
There is another reason, it is extremely difficult to build a weapon with an ice cold attribute, it has not reached the level of a ground-level refiner, and ordinary people can't build it at all, even if it is a ground-level refiner, the probability of failure is also very high, and the cost performance of creating a cold attribute weapon is not very high, so most people will not learn this refining method.
Even the instrument hall tries not to touch the weapons of the ice attribute as much as possible, unless someone directly customizes them, and they will never create this kind of weapon in general.
Originally, Qi Tian also felt that a high-end shop like Jubaozhai would not sell this kind of ore with little value at all, but unexpectedly let him hit it crookedly and encountered this kind of thing that he urgently needed.
He was anxious about not having this kind of raw material, and even thought that if he couldn't meet this material again, he would have to take a risk and go deep into the forbidden dense forest to find the saltpeter vein that Bai Lingxue said in his mouth.
Qi Tian pressed the excitement in his heart, and casually called Shopkeeper Ding over: "Shopkeeper Ding, I want that cold stone." ”
Qi Tiancheng learned from Bai Lingxue's mouth that saltpeter was called a cold stone by the Xuanwu Continent, and it was also because of this reason that he did not let him call the wrong name and make a fool of himself in public.
"What do you want Hanshi for?" Characters like Shopkeeper Ding were all shocked by Qi Tian's actions, could it be that this kid wanted to refine a cold-attribute weapon for her in order to make a smile? But with his cultivation, it seems a little difficult to create a cold-attribute weapon.
Shopkeeper Ding inadvertently revealed his divine sense and probed towards Bai Lingxue, if Bai Lingxue cultivated the exercises of the ice cold attribute, he could verify his guess.
As soon as his divine consciousness touched Bai Lingxue's body, he was bounced back by a strong force, and that force directly followed his divine sense, rushed into his sea of consciousness, and gave himself a fierce blow, a piercing pain made him can't help but snort, and his face suddenly turned pale!
Bai Lingxue snorted coldly, glared at the shopkeeper Ding fiercely, and made him tremble in fright, hurriedly avoiding Bai Lingxue's eyes and lowering his head.
Bai Lingxue didn't care too much about Shopkeeper Ding's disrespect, she didn't want to reveal her identity in the Medicine God Valley, so she warned Shopkeeper Ding fiercely, and then continued to watch the goods in the display case as if nothing had happened.
Shopkeeper Ding was shocked, he never thought that a woman who looked weak and unruly turned out to be a peerless master, and the preliminary estimate was that it should be the same realm as the five hall masters!
He couldn't help but feel his heart beating wildly, looking at Bai Lingxue's eyes, full of jealousy, seeing that this woman was not very old, how could she have such a strong skill?
Shopkeeper Ding doesn't know much about the high-level of the Medicine God Valley, and it is an indisputable fact that he has been in Jubaozhai for a long time, but he is quite withdrawn and has never interacted with those high-level people, so he doesn't know much about their family history.
It was not surprising that he imagined Bai Lingxue as a senior in some high-level position.
But after thinking about it, Shopkeeper Ding was a little unsure of his judgment, those juniors who were sent to Qilin Island, once they returned to the Medicine God Valley, which one was not arrogant, the existence of the sky with their eyes, and the disciples of the Medicine God Valley were all disdainful, thinking that they were the dragon and phoenix among the superior people, and these laymen were not qualified to associate with them at all.
