Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 90 The Profiteer
The four villains in the cage were all green, no more than six inches long, three of them were dying, only one remained, with a bean sprout-like hair on the top of their heads, lying on their sides on the edge of the cage, crossing Erlang's legs, as if they had completely put life and death out of the way.
The hawker was in a hurry, this kind of spirit was extremely difficult to feed, if it was away from the tree where it lived, it would turn into a pulp of water in less than two hours, he drank two more glasses before going out today, so he was a little dizzy, so he fell asleep on the ground.
As a result, when he got up, he had been delayed for an hour, and four wood spirits caught in the net. Three of them are approaching the limit, and they are still in extremely bad condition. Therefore, it is imperative to find a big boss to get rid of it quickly, otherwise this trip will lose all your money.
"Dare to ask the shopkeeper, what is in your cage, why have I never seen it?" Xia Ze looked down at the wood spirit, the little guy seemed to have a temper, and scolded a foul word in his mouth, and the happy Xia Ze shook his head again and again.
The peddler looked up and down at the young man in the green robe, who was mostly dressed as a rich boy who came out to play, and looked like a big man who spent a lot of money, just him!
He put on a simple smile: "Childe's dress, it seems that he is a rich young master from the Great Zhou, do you know, my cage is filled with the spirit of the legendary plants and trees gathering the essence of the sun and the moon, called Peng Hou, the small one goes over the mountains and mountains every day, looking around to find its hiding place on a few towering ancient trees." This Peng Hou body can be used as medicine, and eating it can ward off evil spirits. ”
He spat on the stars and flew around: "This living Peng Hou has a greater effect, after buying it home, you can imprison it in a potted plant, so that the flowers and plants in the potted plant can bloom better and faster, and will not wither all year round." ”
Xia Ze was surprised, the peddler saw him take the bait, and secretly rejoiced, so he increased his skills, and the boastful little mouth, the cowhide that was blown out almost broke through the sky.
On the one hand, it is said that the wood spirit is so precious that it is rare to encounter in a hundred years; On the one hand, he also said how he had a relationship with Xia Ze, and what he admired most in his life was such a handsome and noble son.
Finally, he pointed out two fingers: "How about selling two mangs to Gongzi?" ”
The peddler looked at Xia Ze's expression carefully, for fear that this wronged boss would see the clue.
Xia Ze was just about to speak, but when Lu Yixiang saw the vendor, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and walked up in a few steps: "Ma Laosi, it's you again, why don't you remember to eat or not?" And where are you being deceived? ”
The man who was called Ma Laosi suddenly changed his face, and he hurriedly quibbled: "Senior Lu, where are you talking about, what I am selling is the real Peng...... Belch...... Wood spirits. ”
Lu Yixiang sneered and clenched his fists: "I thought you had a long memory after beating you last time, but I didn't expect that within a few days, there would be a mouth full of lies, and even this simple-minded teenager was deceived?" When you're a wood spirit that has been separated from the root wood for a long time, the aura has long been gone, and besides, aren't you the most inferior wood spirit? ”
The peddler's face turned red and white, and he had to stand still and listen.
"The real wood spirit Peng Hou, bred in the big camphor tree, people cut down the tree, the blood does not stop, then there are five black dogs escaped, eat it can be strong, if it is cultivated, it can be wrapped in a radius of ten miles of flowers and trees, the four seasons are everyspring, the branches and leaves and flower buds are luxuriant, you are a few sick wood spirits, where is worthy of this price?."
The peddler was about to take it anymore and flipped the table to leave, but at this time, Xia Ze suddenly pressed his palm on his shoulder, pressed him back to his original position, and grinned: "Boss, I want all of them." ”
The wood spirit in the cage, as if he understood, raised his head and looked at Xia Ze, his mouth slightly open.
This time, not only Lu Yixiang was confused, but even the vendor who originally planned to slaughter him a good sum of money was a little skeptical that there was something wrong with his ears.
Lu Yixiang seemed to blame Xia Ze for not listening to the old man: "Boy, are you stupid, this price is enough to buy three or four wood spirits that are better than this elsewhere." ”
"Make a friend." Xia Ze looked back and smiled.
"Yes, guest officer, this ......" Even the peddler was a little unbearable.
Xia Ze hesitated for a moment and said: "Boss, it's just that I went out this time, and I didn't have much to wrap around, if I only give a silver ticket and I'm afraid that you won't accept it, how about this, how about I exchange it with you with a talisman of the gods on the mountain." ”
"Talisman, what talisman? How much is it worth? As soon as the peddler heard Xia Ze say that he had no money, the face of the profiteer suddenly became a little ugly.
Good fellow, it turned out to be a swaggering fake nobleman, who caused him to waste so many tongues and was about to drive people away, but he saw a talisman sticking between the young man's fingers, and the top corner began to ignite a flame.
In the sky, there was a layer of rain clouds, which gathered overhead, and turned to rain heavily. People at the foot of the mountain complained and ran away to avoid the rain. Inside the cage, the three weak wood spirits were washed by the golden raindrops, and they suddenly felt refreshed, but they still didn't dare to get up, so they had to pretend to be asleep.
Xia Ze pinched away the flame with two fingers, and the sudden heavy rain actually stopped magically abruptly. The peddler was stunned, but heard the young man say, "Shopkeeper, can I exchange this talisman for your four wood spirits?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! These four wood spirits belong to Gongzi" He snatched the talisman in Xia Ze's hand and nodded like pounding garlic.
Xia Ze was satisfied, so he lifted the cage, turned around and left with Lu Yixiang.
When the peddler saw that the deal was completed, he seemed to be afraid that Xia Ze would suddenly regret it after being instigated by Lu Yixiang, so he didn't even care about the bench, and ran into the woods and disappeared.
A rain cleansing talisman can be used within a radius of three miles to pray for a burst of rain, which is a year of drought, with which you can make a fortune.
"Boy, I know that you have money, and I know that you kid is capable, but you casually give the talisman to that guy, in case he uses it to do evil things, wouldn't it be ......"
Xia Ze shook his head and presented the three cyan talismans with both hands: "This talisman of mine is out of my family heirloom, if I don't use the family heirloom spell to regularly offer the aura, the aura will be exhausted and turned into waste paper in seven days." Besides, the talisman I gave him was only the lowest defective product, and the rest of the spiritual power, let alone rain, even if it blew a breeze, would be difficult. ”
Lu Yixiang nodded again and again, but heard Xia Ze say: "Senior, you have remembered, when this talisman is urged, you need to recite it silently in your heart, "Heaven and earth are natural, and the filth is scattered." The cave is mysterious, and the eight directions of the Huanglang Taiyuan are mighty, so that I am natural. Lingbao talisman, proclaim for nine days. ”
"Why did you give me a talisman?" Lu Yixiang was puzzled.
Xia Ze thought for a while: "It can be regarded as a thank you to Senior Lu for speaking up and giving me guidance." ”
Lu Yixiang was stunned for a moment, and for a long time, a chestnut hammer was hammered on Xia Ze's head.
"You kid is not bad, but this problem of injustice and righteousness must be changed. How can there be so many curves and curves in the rivers and lakes, and there is no need to move the teachers and people, and it seems to be divided. ”
Xia Ze found a corner where no one was around, sat down cross-legged, and the four wood spirits looked at this young man trembling, constantly speculating about his ending.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ze just flipped his palm, and four aura-filled stunning coins jumped out.
Xia Ze stretched out his palm and said with a faint smile: "Come, eat the aura on this immortal money, and then find another safe big tree to live in, remember not to be caught." ”
The four little wooden people had doubts about Xia Ze in their hearts, and they didn't dare to step forward at first, but Xia Ze didn't mind, so he simply threw the copper coins to them, and then opened the cage and retreated a few steps before they stepped forward suspiciously and picked up the stinging coins.
A crisp sound like chewing a crisp pear sounded, and several small wood spirits, which were originally weakened by the depletion of spiritual energy, were swept away and refreshed.
Seeing this, Xia Ze was naturally full of joy. The first two represent spring and summer, which is the time of continuous rain and lush flowers. However, Xia Ze looked at them like this, for fear that one would accidentally overdo it, kick his calf, and die with a whimper.
Therefore, it is best to choose the stunning money that represents the early spring for warm compensation.
The young man suddenly lowered his head, just because he was sitting in Tuntian, one of the three souls, in the Qi Mansion in his chest, risking death and was making a temper, Xia Ze was a little helpless, and said a few words Okay, I'm sorry, and then casually put the three mangzhong money into his belly.
The three copper coins that were brought to them fell on the skin and disappeared, and the thunderous sound only disappeared.
The four wood spirits were full of wine and food, looked at each other, and babbled and said this. Xia Ze looked at the four round bodies at his feet, and suddenly felt very funny, but they suddenly tore off the wood-like hair on the top of their heads, and then braided them into a whip little by little, and then handed it to Xia Ze from the original one.
Xia Ze frowned slightly, the whip lying in the palm of his hand was so strong that even if he held it in the palm of his hand, he could feel a fragrant fragrance of flowers and plants and a burst of shade.
The little wooden man snorted and ran back to his companion, and then bowed slightly to Xia Ze in unison.
The three little wooden men waved their hands to Xia Ze again and again to say goodbye, and then shouted hey as if they were diving, and then sank into the dirt and walked away.
Only the little wooden man with bean sprouts on his head was left, staring at Xia Ze blankly.
Xia Ze waved his hand at it: "Goodbye, little guy, hide far away, don't be caught again." ”
Xia Ze turned to leave, and the little guy came to his senses, seemed to be a little hesitant, and hurriedly followed.
It's just that when Xia Ze turned around, it shyly hid in a big rock.
Xia Ze was a little curious as a child, so he returned to the team.
Not far away, the vendor saw that the three wood spirits were already far away, and it was difficult to find traces, except for the little wooden man with bean sprouts, which was still in place.
couldn't help but scold: "What kind of bastard is this bastard, spend a talisman to buy my wood essence, and actually put it like this, it's really a waste of things, and it's a tyrannical thing." ”
I didn't want to turn my head, and as soon as I accidentally bumped into someone, I wanted to hit a wall, and my nose was bleeding.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't look at the road......" the peddler hurriedly apologized.
The black man was covered in strong tendons and meat, his face was full of meat, he grabbed the collar of the vendor, and said with a grim smile: "What did you just say?" ”
