Chapter 4 Lively Bazaar

The night markets of the Iron City are bustling with activity, and the entire street is full of shops selling weapons, animal skins, and food and drink.

Mu Wanling took Gu Heng to an open-air shop where he roasted large pieces of meat from unknown beasts on a dazzling firewood fire, and the aroma of the roasted meat made both Mu Wanling and Gu Heng drool.

"It's all because I ate too much for dinner, otherwise I would have bought it and ate it. Mu Wanling touched her stomach and sighed incessantly.

When Gu Heng heard this, he was a little strange, buying to eat? What is buying and eating? Didn't he eat a random meal in Qingyuan Town that day, so he asked: "Do you want to buy these things? What do you mean by buying?"

Mu Wanling grinned, took out the broken silver from his pocket, and said, "Idiot, you can't take other people's things casually, if you want to pay, we have to use this silver in exchange for their things." ”

"Silver?" Gu Heng reached out and took the broken silver in Mu Wanling's hand and fiddled with it in front of his eyes for a moment, and said, "I haven't seen this thing, where did you get it?"

Mu Wanling took back the silver and returned: "Of course I asked my grandfather for it, he earns money, and I spend money." ”

The two chatted for a while, and unconsciously came to a sword shop, and Mu Wanling asked, "Do you have a weapon on you?"

Gu Heng shook his head and replied, "My mother does have a long sword, but she never let me touch it, I said I was not qualified." ”

"Today I have mercy and buy you a handful. Mu Wanling picked up Gu Heng, strode into the house, and shouted affectionately: "Uncle, I'm here to buy a sword!"

In the sword shop, a man was facing away from the door, wielding a hammer in his hand and smashing the red sword body, he heard Mu Wanling's shout, and he didn't look back, just smiled: "Ling'er came to see the sword again?

Mu Wanling smiled: "I haven't saved enough, I'm just helping my friend buy one." ”

"Oh, when did you have a friend?" the man stopped what he was doing, turned his head to look, then turned back to continue forging the sword, and said: "It's rare to have another child, the people here are adventurous young people, people like me who do business with peace of mind are about to become outliers, and you will definitely be like them when you grow up, hey, young is good, you can do whatever you want???"

The man spoke to himself, as if he had never spoken to anyone in his life, Mu Wanling secretly made a grimace, and led Gu Heng to the place where the sword was placed, only to see that the shop was full of swords of different sizes, different lengths, Gu Heng's eyes were straight, and his mouth secretly said: "There are so many of these swords!"

Mu Wanling walked up to a long sword, stroked the long sword, and said with a smile: "I have been looking at this sword for a long time, but unfortunately it is too expensive to buy." ”

Gu Heng finally stood in front of a huge blunt sword, that sword had no edge and no blade, the entire sword body was a man's length, and the width was almost as wide as Gu Heng's shoulders.

Mu Wanling didn't know when she stood behind Gu Heng, and when she saw Gu Heng looking at this giant sword that no one cared about like a treasure, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Idiot, this sword is heavy and stupid, do you want to use this?"

When the man who forged the sword heard this, he also looked back, and then said with a smile: "This sword was forged when I was bored, and I wanted to sell it casually, but no one looked down on it at all, if you want it, just give it to you with some silver." ”

Gu Heng was overjoyed and was about to take the sword, but Mu Wanling shook his head and said: "With such a heavy sword, it is difficult to wield, you should pick a normal one, this sword is also given for nothing." ”

Gu Heng still stared at it, he somehow liked this sword very much in his heart, so he ignored Mu Wanling's dissuasion, and reached out to resist the sword. This sword weighed a hundred catties, and Gu Heng carried it on his shoulder, feeling that his body was bent.

Mu Wanling couldn't help but giggle and said, "Idiot, tell you not to take it, how about it, you can't even take the heavy ones, right?"

Gu Heng smiled awkwardly: "I don't know how much I like this sword, since I can't hold it, forget it." ”

The man stopped what he was doing at some point, got up and walked behind the two, and said meaningfully: "It's not simple, boy, you didn't use Xuan Qi." ”

Gu Heng replied, "Xuanqi, no, I don't know how to use that power yet. ”

"Seeing that you are young, your strength is quite large, if you use Xuan Qi, I think this sword should be able to swing it. ”

When Mu Wanling heard this, he was also secretly surprised, he picked it up without using Xuan Qi, his strength was really not small, if he used Xuan Qi, this sword was really suitable for him. She then said, "You don't know how to use Xuan Qi, but you are all out of the Body Realm." ”

The man was surprised when he heard this: "Broken Body Realm, kid, you can't even use Xuan Qi if you break through the Body Realm?"

Gu Heng was greatly embarrassed, put the sword on the ground with a "bang", and returned: "My mother didn't teach me." ”

"Then you can always feel the Xuan Qi in your body, right?" asked Mu Wanling.

"Well, they're like a breath of air, I thought they were used to heal. ”

"You try to transport this qi to your limbs with mental power, and then try to lift this sword. Mu Wanling replied.

Gu Heng said that, he closed his eyes and felt the scattered Xuan Qi around him, gradually entering them into his limbs, after a while, he opened his eyes suddenly, and his hands were charged up, the sword was like a feather at the moment, Gu Heng was easily held in his hand, feeling that the weight of the giant sword was lightened, Gu Heng put down his left hand, and held the sword flat in the air with only his right hand.

"Hurry up, go outside and have a look!" Mu Wanling pushed Gu Heng out of the house, she knew that Gu Heng didn't know any swordsmanship, so she picked up a sword in the sword shop casually, and brandished a piece of swordsmanship in the mystical technique, Gu Heng looked at it once, and practiced it exactly the slightest, Mu Wanling deeply admired his incomparable memory, and she thought that she had watched this swordsmanship several times before remembering, Gu Heng waved to the last style "sweeping thousands of armies" , couldn't help but increase the output of Xuan Qi, who knew that the sword body swept with Gu Heng's accumulation, and a yellow sword qi visible to the naked eye was swung out, and the sword qi slammed into the shop opposite, directly lifting its roof away.

Gu Heng was shocked, stopped the giant sword in his hand, looked at the house that was lifted away, at a loss, inside the house, a strong man rushed out with a knife, saw Gu Heng, and shouted: "Stinky boy, are you impatient?"

Seeing this, Mu Wanling threw the sword and broken silver in his hand into the sword shop, pulled up Gu Heng and fled, Gu Heng was lucky with both feet, one stepped on, exclaimed, and it was directly into the sky, Mu Wanling saw him jumping so high, hurriedly jumped up, and pushed hard behind him, and the two of them left quickly like fugitives.

The strong man chased after him for a while with his knife, and found that he couldn't catch up, so he scolded a few words without giving up and went back.

At this time, Gu Heng had already been able to skillfully luck and left, seeing that the man was no longer chasing, Mu Wanling laughed and said: "It's really dangerous, fortunately, that man's martial arts are not high, otherwise we would be miserable." ”

Gu Heng hesitated a little and asked, "Let's just run away like this, okay?"

Mu Wanling rolled her eyes strangely, and said solemnly: "Destroying things here is to do a year's work for others for nothing, do you want to stay under him for a year?

When Gu Heng heard that he was going to stay for a year, he immediately stopped talking, and Mu Wanling smiled with satisfaction: "Don't tell my grandfather about this matter, he is a person who is a deacon, maybe he will arrest you back." ”

Gu Heng was grateful to Mu Wanling, nodded and said, "I won't talk about it, you have to keep it secret for me." ”

"Of course, but you'll have to listen to me in the future. ”

"It must be, what you say, what I do. Gu Heng, a child from the mountains, was played by Mu Wanling at the moment, but he was still grateful to her, both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, and Mu Wanling smiled: "Okay, let's go to the place where the beasts are sold and take a look, so you can take a good look at the horizon." After speaking, he picked up Gu Heng and flew south.

"Are the alien beasts powerful?" Gu Heng couldn't help but ask.

Mu Wanling replied: "The places that sell strange beasts sell some strange beasts captured from the southern mountains and forests, which are rare and powerful, but a few are very cherished, and from time to time there will be some strange beasts that I have never seen." ”

When the two of them arrived at their destination after a while, a foul smell came to their nostrils, and Mu Wanling fanned her nose and said with a smile: "This place just smells too big, can you stand it?"

Gu Heng sniffed, nodded and said, "I can stand this, let's go in,"

Seeing Gu Heng's expectant appearance, Mu Wanling sneered and said, "Let's go, let's go," and swaggered in.

The strange beasts that came into the eyes were of different sizes, and a few of them made a cheerful sound when they saw Mu Wanling, and Mu Wanling stepped forward to pat their heads and said with a smile: "Silly guy, why haven't they been sold yet." The beasts enthusiastically stuck out their tongues and licked her hands, causing her to giggle.

The alien beast field is very large, there are hundreds of alien beasts in it, and wherever Mu Wanling goes, there are alien beasts cheering, as if she was born with alien beasts.

Gu Heng couldn't help but reach out and stroke a short, three-eyed, big-nosed demon beast, who knew that this demon beast snorted and spewed out a cloud of water vapor from his nose, spraying his whole body wet, Mu Wanling saw it and grinned: "This is a thick-nosed three-eyed beast, not just where it came from, it looks strange, it likes to spray people the most, but it's okay, it's just spraying some water." ”

Gu Heng wiped the moisture on his face, and didn't dare to touch it casually anymore, but Mu Wanling walked to the thick-nosed three-eyed beast, patted its head lightly and said: "This little guy has been here for several months, and no one has bought it, if no one buys it again, I'm afraid he will be slaughtered and eaten for meat, but unfortunately I don't have any money, otherwise I would have bought it." After speaking, the always carefree eyes showed a sad look, Gu Heng couldn't bear it, and said: "Otherwise, I don't want this sword, you can exchange the money back." ”

Mu Wanling shook her head and said: "It's useless, strange beasts are not like ordinary animals, they often cost a hundred taels of silver, and the money I spent to buy a sword is only a few taels, where is it enough?"

While talking, a man dressed in animal skin walked over, saw Mu Wanling, and said with a smile: "Come to visit again?" There are several strange beasts here today, all of which have never been seen before, do you want to see them?"

Mu Wanling shook her head, looked at the man and said, "Uncle Judas, doesn't anyone want this thick-nosed three-eyed beast yet?"

The man surnamed Yu shook his head and said: "This strange beast is useless, it just looks a little strange, I should have thought that no one would want him here, and after a while, I will slaughter it and sell it for meat, so that there will be less losses." ”

Gu Heng, who had been silent, suddenly asked, "Can't you sell it to us?"

"Yo, master, do you want to buy it? Then I'll sell it to you at the purchase price, one hundred and thirty taels, how about it, I didn't make any money. Seeing that someone wanted to buy it, the man hurriedly lowered the price of this tricky beast, but Gu Heng blushed and said, "I don't have that much money." ”

The man smiled: "You are all children, it seems that I am too naΓ―ve, let's talk about it when you have money." As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Gu Heng's animal skin, his eyes lit up, and he asked: "Child, where did you get this animal skin, it doesn't look like a bargain?" He stretched out his hand and stroked the animal skin on Gu Heng's body, and suddenly exclaimed: "This is not ??? Isn't this the skin of a demon beast?"
