Chen Li returned home non-stop all the way.

I saw that in the living room, Zhou Hong was facing a huge snake demon skin, drawing something like Bibi.

"What is this going to do?" Chen Li hung the sword on the wall and wondered.

"This skin is quite tough, and it is difficult to be injured by ordinary magic weapons, so I wonder if I can make you an inner armor." Zhou Hong pursed her lips and smiled.

Chen Li couldn't help but be moved when he heard this.

After all, this is the snake skin of a second-order snake demon.

Although his spiritual power can hurt his fingers, he can only barely do it.

And the grandmaster-level spiritual power flicks its fingers, and the power is already comparable to a first-order fifth-level spell, which is definitely not weak, and it is even stronger than a middle-grade magic weapon with the full strength of a fifth-level qi training.

And this kind of strength is already the middle and upper class of the shantytown, and they are all elite backbones in the gang.

"Worries you!" A trace of warmth rose in Chen Li's heart, and he stepped forward to hold her hand.

"I don't dare to ask for too much, as long as you can be safe, I will be satisfied." Zhou Hong leaned on Chen Li's arms and said softly.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Chen Li said with relief, and then changed the topic: "However, this skin is still too hard, so I have to find someone to deal with it first." ”

Compared with ordinary demon animal skin, this snake skin is already very thin, but the thickness is still about three millimeters, and it feels hard like rubber, and it is definitely not comfortable to wear on the body, and it also affects the flexibility of the body.

And next door, there happens to be a master leather maker.

The two talked privately.

Chen Li rolled up the snakeskin and walked out the door.

……

"Uncle, what's the matter?" Zhang Shuniang opened the door and asked with a wink of talking eyes.

"Lady, where's your father?" Chen Li asked.

"My dad is making leather in the talisman room, and he can't leave for the time being, so tell me to open the door, uncle, come in!"

"Why haven't you come to my house to play in the past two days!" Chen Li walked in the door and smiled at Zhang Shuniang.

Zhang Shuniang closed the courtyard door, walked briskly and followed behind Chen Li, and said honestly: "My father won't let me go out, saying that there are demon beasts outside, and I can't go out for a few days, and I'm learning to draw talismans now."

My father said that the family's money was earned by you, uncle.

If I don't learn to draw talismans, I won't have enough to eat. ”

Chen Li was speechless: "Your father lied to you, don't pay attention to your father, he is the one who picks and searches, and earns him some money, which is more uncomfortable than asking for his life." ”

"Hee-hee, I think it is, too." Zhang Shuniang snickered.

"Has his father been scolding me behind my back?" Chen Li couldn't help but tease.

Zhang Shuniang's eyes widened when she heard this, and her face turned red: "No...... No, my dad never scolded you...... Uncle, I'll make you tea. ”

After saying that, he quickly slipped away.

Chen Li couldn't help but smile dumbly, and walked into Zhang Yan's talisman room.

He's been here many times, and he's already familiar with it.

I saw Zhang Yan holding a knife, carefully scraping the skin, cleaning up the minced meat on the animal skin, seeing Chen Li come in, his eyelids raised slightly, and he continued to bow his head to work, and said: "Chen Daoyou, you see that I am busy, so I won't entertain you, you can just take care of yourself." ”

"Zhang Daoyou, don't be busy yet, I just received a good skin, help palm the eye." Chen Li smiled and said excitedly: "I can guarantee that you are definitely a leather you have never seen." ”

"Hey, what a big breath, Zhang has been dealing with leather for 30 years, and I haven't touched any skin, I want to see what kind of skin it is." Zhang Yan sneered, couldn't help but put down his skin, and stood up:

"Spread the skin out and I'll see."

Chen Li walked to an empty table and spread out the snakeskin in his hand.

"This pattern, at first glance, is a snake demon skin......" Zhang Yan was a little disdainful at first, but it didn't last long, his face became serious, he began to check, and came to the front of him inch by inch to inspect, as time went by, his brows became more and more wrinkled, and his face gradually became dignified.

"Where did you get this skin?" Zhang Yan said with a solemn face.

"Bought it from Fang Market!" Chen Li said: "It cost me thirty low-grade spirit stones, and I don't know if I lost or earned." ”

"That doesn't make sense...... This breath, this toughness, this subtle and obscure aura, it is obviously a second-order snake demon skin. And it's still a fresh second-order snake demon skin, you look at the blood on this leather, obviously it has just been peeled off! Zhang Yan muttered to himself, looking incredulous:

"Could it be that the Yu family has made a move...... Maybe I'm wrong, I'll take a look at ......."

"Okay, what's the matter with so much, wait for you to have time to take a good look, I want to use this leather to make a set of inner armor, but I think it's too hard and too thick, so I want to leave it to you to deal with it first, can you get it done at night." Chen Li interrupted with a smile.

"At night? How is it possible, to deal with a leather, there are too many processes before and after, it is extremely time-consuming, at least ten days and half a month, not to mention that I have never touched this kind of leather, it is difficult to say whether I can handle it. Zhang Yan couldn't care about doubts when he heard this, and quickly shook his head.

Wait until ten days and half a month, and the demon beast meat will stink.

What else to sell.

"You don't need to make it as complicated as making talisman skin, just handle it simply, and when the time comes, after making the inner armor, if there is any material leftover, it will all be given to you." Chen Li said.

Zhang Yan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "This is true." ”

How much skin can be used for an inner armor, such a large piece of skin, almost half of it is left.

"What's the use of the rest of the leather I want, but the ugliness is ahead, if the processing can't satisfy me, I can't make the inner armor, and the remaining leather will be gone."

"Okay, Chen Daoyou, talk quickly, a word is a certainty, and it depends on my means." Zhang Yan patted his chest and said.

……

In the afternoon, in the yard.

"Get out!"

A soft snort.

Reprimanding is released.

Feeling a little dizzy, Chen Li hurriedly paused and slowed down.

He glanced at the game board.

"There are only six o'clock left, and I should be able to advance today."

The 'Scolding Technique' was already on the verge of advancement, and with more intentional practice in the past two days, the progress was rapid.

"The master-level scolding technique is comparable to the first-order sixth-level spell, judging from the previous battles, even the talisman is difficult to defend against all, and what is even more terrifying is this spell or a range attack...... "Chen Li thought in his heart:

"Coupled with the protection of the golden light talisman and the second-order snake skin inner armor, except for the Yu family building the foundation, what am I afraid of the rest of the people, just a group of local chickens and dogs."

When the dizziness subsided slightly, Chen Li picked up the sword and began to continue practicing.

……

Evening.

Chen Li received three golden light talismans from Zhao Lin.

"If you give me one more day, I will definitely receive more!" Zhao Lin reluctantly returned six medium-grade spirit stones.

Don't you want money?

One of the three medium-grade spirit stones.

Chen Li glanced at him painfully, and while putting the spirit stone into the money bag, he said: "Don't worry, there will be a chance in the future, by the way, tomorrow I will go to the Fang Market to sell second-order demon beast meat, it is estimated that there will be some turmoil, you pay attention to safety, it is best not to go to the Fang Market these days." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that there was no movement.

When I looked up, I saw Zhao Lin's mouth trembling, and his face was dumbfounded: "Second ...... Second-order demon beast meat? Big...... Big brother, you killed the first second-order demon beast!? ”

He nodded indifferently and said hypocritically: "I met last night, okay, don't make a fuss, I'm just giving you a wake-up call first!" ”

……

On the way back, Chen Li thought back to what he had said.

I think it's totally fine.

He didn't show pride, but he didn't care about it, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter like eating and drinking, something that was not worth mentioning at all, which was deeply in line with his low-key way of doing things.

He walked home briskly.

For Zhang Yan, he didn't urge.

After all, a daytime is too rushed, and urging will affect the processing effect of leather.

Fortunately, I just finished dinner.

Zhang Yan came to the door with the leather.

His face was full of exhaustion, his hands carrying the leather were trembling, he looked like an honest man, and when he saw Chen Li, he poured bitter water:

"The time is too tight, the skin level is too high, and a lot of potions don't work very well, so I can only barely deal with it like this, for your Zhang Material, I didn't even have time to eat lunch, from the morning to now, even the old life is about to be lost."

Chen Li's ears automatically blocked the other party's complaints, and reached out to take the leather: "I'll take a look first!" ”

He kneaded it vigorously, and the whole material became a lot softer, nearly one-third thinner, and in addition, the original fishy smell was completely gone.

"How?" Zhang Yan stretched his neck and couldn't help asking.

"I don't think I'm so much smaller." Chen Li said slowly.

"It's normal for it to shrink naturally when you soak in potions."

Chen Li nodded noncommittally, and then asked, "It doesn't affect toughness and defense, right?" ”

"No, absolutely not."

Facing Zhang Yan's expectant gaze, Chen Li finally spoke: "It's okay, this time the time is tight, so I won't force it." Don't worry, I'll tell you what I say, and I'll give you the rest when the time comes.

In addition, I have the same material, this time the time is not so tight, but I have to deal with it well. ”

"You've got one more!" Zhang Yan exclaimed.

"I bought two of them, didn't I tell you? It may be that I forgot, this material is still used to make inner armor, the old rules, the rest of the material is still for you. Chen Li said with a 'surprised' face:

"Wait, I'll go get the leather."

Chen Li walked into the back room, jumped into the basement, and quickly took a roll of fresh leather: "This roll is bigger, and I plan to use it to make two sets of inner armor." ”

Zhang Yan took the leather in a daze, smelling the rich fishy smell and the depressing breath that seemed to be nothing, he opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know where to start, and he always felt something wrong in his heart.

Where did these fresh second-order demon beast skins come from?

Who killed this second-order demon beast?

……

The next day, the sky was bright.

Chen Li put on the inner armor that Zhou Hong had made overnight, put on his robe, reached out and touched the sleevepocket of his left hand, and checked it, the three golden light talismans inside were placed there, and a strong sense of security suddenly appeared.

He picked up the big cloth bag containing the meat, picked up the sword, and said to Zhou Hong: "I'll go first." ”

"Stay safe!" Zhou Hong said worriedly: "Why don't I go with you." ”

"Don't, I'll take care of you when you go, it's even more dangerous when the time comes, stay at home with peace of mind, and I'll be back immediately!" Chen Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen." ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the house.

Zhou Hong followed a few quick steps, leaning against the gate of the courtyard and watching.

Chen Li glanced back, motioned for her to go back, turned around and hurried to Fang City.

The sky is still dark, there are few pedestrians on the road, it is extremely deserted, until it is close to the market, the flow of people gradually increases, most of them are the bottom of the stalls in the past to grab the position.

Some of these people were dressed in rags, some were fairly clean and tidy, but many of their robes had patches.

After the caravan was gone, many supplies began to be scarce.

Most casual cultivators can't afford to buy robes and wear worldly clothes.

Some monks only have one or two sets of robes all year round, they can't even draw cleaning charms, they don't bother to wash the pulp, and their living conditions are terrible, and after a year of wear and tear, their robes have long been tattered, and they are not much better than beggars.

The world is full of wonders.

There is no worst, only worse.

Even if it is the original owner, if it is not for the skill of drawing talismans.

Have a good income.

The usual living conditions are estimated to be not much better than these people.

……

The arrival of the meat seller caused a commotion in the market, and the crowd avoided it.

"I'm selling meat again."

"You please!"

There were voices of greeting everywhere, Chen Li nodded all the way, and now he didn't need to pretend to be fierce, he chose a position close to the door and put down the cloth bag.

Quite a few people had already noticed his arrival and gathered around.

The monster meat he sells has always been cheap, and he has accumulated a good reputation during this time.

Chen Li glanced at it, spread out a piece of cloth by himself, and then took out a wooden board from it and set it up beside it.

There are a few big words written on it:

'Second-order demon beast meat: five lower-grade spirit stones and ten catties! ’

"Boom", the crowd was in an uproar.

"Hey, Daoyou is really second-order demon beast meat, this can't be faked."

"Yes, fellow Daoist, where did you get the second-order demon beast meat!"

……

The crowd was talking and in a commotion.

"I, Chen, do business in Fang City, I have always been honest, and I am not deceived, when have I deceived all of you." Chen Li glared fiercely, stood up and opened the cloth bag to pour out the snow-white snake demon meat, and suddenly a faint depressing aura permeated:

"Please also distinguish and see if this is second-order demon beast meat!"

As soon as the words ended, the crowd fell silent.

The crowd's faces froze, and many couldn't help but take a step back.

Shock!

Surprise!

Unbelievable.

But how long it was quiet, more noisy voices rang out.

"Fellow Daoist, did you really kill the first second-order demon beast?"

"Can it be cheaper?"

"Green River Fang has been saved!"

"Is it okay to buy only two catties?"

……

Chen Li only felt that there were countless flies and ducks, ringing in his ears, and he couldn't help but burst into a loud shout.

"Shut up, buy it if you want to, don't ask blindly if you don't buy it, five spirit stones and ten catties will not be sold in bulk."

As a person who refines the body, Chen Li has a strong physique, and his voice is so loud that everyone only feels that their minds are buzzing, and the noisy crowd can't help but be quiet, thinking of the murderous name of this meat seller, no one dares to speak for a while.

"Okay, whoever wants to buy it, hurry up!" Chen Li said.

"I want ten pounds!"

"Give me twenty pounds."

Perhaps the price is too high for most people to afford.

Most of the queue dispersed.

Only a few people chose to pay for it, but there were more and more onlookers.

Chen Li is not in a hurry, and sells slowly.

It's still early.

The sky is not yet bright, the flow of people in the market is sparse, and after two or three hours, it is the time when the flow of people is the most in the day.
