Chapter 85: The local tyrant is very strong
After seeing the middle-aged man and his party leave, Kou Ning couldn't help but ask Li Xiuyan, "I said Brother Yan, why does this holy domain prevent people from entering and leaving?"
Li Xiuyan shrugged his shoulders, "You ask me, who am I going to ask?" directly choked Kou Ning speechless.
The Sanctuary is a large island in the sea.
Holy Soul City, located in the center of the island, is as prosperous as the capital of the three empires, although it has little contact with the outside world, but all kinds of materials needed on weekdays are everything, completely dependent on self-sufficiency, like a small world of its own.
From the seaside to the Holy Soul City, according to the footsteps of ordinary people, it takes almost half a day to walk.
When Li Xiuyan and the four of them arrived at the city gate, it was already afternoon, and the afterglow of the sunset reflected the magnificent city tower in a fiery red, which looked very spectacular.
Kou Ning was amazed, it was the first time he had seen such a tall city tower, at least twice as tall as the city tower in Yiling.
"Let's go, let's go into town. Li Xiuyan greeted him, and took the lead towards the city gate with Shen Xuanbing on his back, followed by Kou Ning Li Shuyao.
Holy Soul City is different from the outside towns, there are no guards at the city gate, and there are few people entering and leaving the city, but the city is very lively, even if the sun is about to set, there are still many people in the market.
Kou Ning and Li Shuyao saw the various stalls on both sides of the market, like Columbus who had discovered the New World, and they had to take a stroll at each stall.
Li Xiuyan was not interested in these things, and walked in the middle of the market with Shen Xuanbing on his back.
However, he noticed that Shen Xuanbing seemed to be very interested in the various gadgets placed on these stalls, so he immediately walked over to those stalls.
Since she said that she would be her feet and take her to every place she wanted to go, she must do what she says.
"Brother, I want to eat sugar gourd. Li Shuyao jumped up and ran in front of Li Xiuyan and pointed to a vendor not far in front of her.
Kou Ning had been following behind Li Shuyao, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said, "You wait, I'll buy it for you." ”
Li Xiuyan saw that Shen Xuanbing seemed to want it too, and shouted at Kou Ning's back: "Buy two!"
Kou Ning didn't look back, and made an "OK" gesture to Li Xiuyan.
As a result, I went fast and returned quickly, but I didn't even bring back a hawthorn in my hand.
"What's going on?" asked Li Xiuyan.
Kou Ning frowned and said, "I don't have any money......"
When Li Xiuyan heard this, his head buzzed, he patted his forehead, and asked Cang Tian speechlessly......
Shen Xuanbing took out a silver ingot from his bosom and threw it to Kou Ning.
Kou Ning still looked constipated, "People don't accept this kind of money." ”
"What!" the three of them were shocked when they heard this, and Li Xiuyan asked, "Then what kind of money does he charge?"
Korning sighed, "He said he would only accept soul stones. ”
"Soul, Soul Stone ......"
Li Xiuyan was speechless for a moment.
Soul stones are the circulating currency of the Middle Heaven Realm and the Heavenly Realm, compared with gold and silver things, soul stones are the real resources and wealth, each soul stone contains more or less soul power, these soul power can be used as item transactions, can also be used to improve their own cultivation.
In his previous life, Li Xiuyan, the reason why cultivation was able to advance by leaps and bounds, in addition to relying on extraordinary talent and extraordinary efforts, and then the accumulation of soul stones, the number of soul stones consumed has long been unknown.
But now, he couldn't even take out half of the lowest soul stone......
"Fatty, go and ask the aunt who sells roasted sweet potatoes over there to see if she collects the money. ”
"Okay. ”
Kou Ning nodded, went over to negotiate with the aunt, then turned around and walked back with a depressed face, knowing the result without asking.
"What can we do about this, if we don't accept gold and silver, aren't we like beggars and penniless?" Kou Ning wanted to cry, but now he couldn't find a tune even if he wanted to cry.
At this moment, a beggar happened to pass by the four of them, with a very bright smile on his face, holding a lowest-grade red soul stone in his hand, the size of a pigeon's egg, and humming a little song in his mouth as he walked, "I'm really happy today, take a soul stone for meat......
"Alas...... I don't think we're as good as a beggar. Li Xiuyan sighed depressedly.
In the space of the Nine Realms, there is still a lot of dry food, eating and drinking is not a problem, it is a low grade, which can be overcome, but how to solve the place to settle, this is a town, you can't really sleep on the street like a beggar......
Wait a minute!
Li Xiuyan suddenly thought of the soul, and hurriedly called his name in his heart.
The soul felt that Li Xiuyan was not like the chosen Lord of the Nine Realms, but more like a debt collector.
Every time Li Xiuyan took the initiative to call him, it was no good thing, either asking for money or pills, and now he was even more ruthless, and he actually wanted soul stones......
"Let's talk about it first, I don't have a soul stone, and even if I did, it would have been absorbed by me a long time ago, and it would definitely not be left until now. "The Soul is the first to speak.
Li Xiuyan had long expected him to say this, and he didn't expect to be able to pull out the soul stone from the fingers of the soul, what he wanted was an elixir, especially the best divine pill, which was a priceless treasure wherever it was placed.
The soul said: "I also have the elixir, and there are a few pieces of garbage that increase the soul power value, do you want it?"
"Don't talk to me about the calves, I didn't eat the two Storm Soul Pills last time, I didn't eat them, and I returned them to you, do you tell me now?
As soon as he heard this, the soul suddenly had nothing to say, no wonder Li Xiuyan returned the Violent Soul Pill to himself so happily last time, he didn't expect him to be waiting here!
"Okay, okay, I'm convinced of you. "The matter has come to this point, and it is impossible for the soul to say no, so I have to obediently give the two Violent Soul Pills to Li Xiuyan again, "These are the last two Violent Soul Pills, are you sure you don't keep them to save your life?"
Li Xiuyan said: "If you want to save your life, it's enough to keep one." Besides, I won't do business with the soul stones I have exchanged? Before I enter the Holy Soul Academy, I will become the richest man on the rich side of the Holy Soul City. ”
The soul smiled, "If you had that brain, you wouldn't have been betrayed in your previous life." ”
Li Xiuyan became angry when he heard this, "This article can't be turned over, can it?"
The soul snorted angrily, "Who told you to blackmail me all the time, and if you don't stab you twice, how can I vent the grievances in my heart?"
"You are amazing......" If it weren't for the fear of suddenly disappearing and causing panic among the people around him, Li Xiuyan really wanted to enter the Nine Realms space and give the soul a middle finger in person, is there anyone as cheap as him.
Five days passed in the Holy Soul City.
Li Xiuyan had the best Divine Pill in hand, so naturally he didn't have to worry about the problem of the soul stone, and after taking Shen Xuanbing and them to live in the best inn in the city, he went out in disguise alone, played the original routine, and sold the best Violent Soul Pill with the help of the auction, and exchanged it for some soul stones. Although it is not a lot, it is at least enough for the simple expenses of four people and one dog for three years.
