189 Bazaar
Soon after, more and more people set up stalls in the bazaar, and the bazaar became more and more lively. Zhang Cundao also squeezed into the crowd and began to go shopping.
This kind of stall similar to a night market makes Zhang Cundao feel very warm. When he was a child, he also followed his parents to go shopping in the night market street of Zijin City, where many snacks, all kinds of quirky gadgets, and jugglers made him linger when he was young.
It's just that later, he can't keep up with his studies more and more, and the time spent on his studies has increased, and the opportunities to go to the night market with his parents are getting less and less, and finally he only remembers it......
Yunhai Market is more magical and lively than the original night market. There are all kinds of things sold in the stalls here. From unknown grass roots and leaves, to beautiful birds, beasts, insects and fish, all kinds of ores that I don't know if they are radioactive, as well as strange and unknown elixirs.
Whenever the monks found it useful, they would put a price on it and sell it at the market. As for whether it can be sold or not, that's another matter.
Zhang Cundao saw a strange snail, this strange snail was colorful, and the carapace on its back was also diverse. Zhang Cundao thought it was an ornamental product, but he didn't expect it to be food!
This snail has a variety of flavors, from chicken to boogers, crunchy to rotten snot. And the point is, you have no idea what this snail tastes like until you eat it!
You can buy ten of these snails with one coin, and the key is that there are quite a few people who buy them! They take the snail as if they were eating jelly beans, and they go shopping while eating, and sometimes they eat strange tastes, and the expressions on their faces will become strange.
Shopping while eating snails seems to be a habit in this bazaar...... It's like eating popcorn while watching a movie, you can't have one without the other.
Out of respect for this habit, Zhang Cundao also bought some snails. Then the first one he ate was an indescribable smell of stinky socks......
This made him almost throw up, and finally decided to take these snails back to Di Lao and Feng Wu to eat......
After a little strolling around the market, I finally saw a stall selling light stones. The one who sold the light stones was a young girl, and her stall was small, with light stones of various sizes on it, and nothing else.
Light stone is actually a very common consumable, which can be used for lighting and can also be used to grow vegetables in the cave. This is actually formed by some kind of stone that absorbs the sun's rays, and if the light stone is extinguished, it can be placed in the sun to dry and recharge. Of course, it is also possible to buy new ones.
Zhang Cundao's eyes looked at the stall, there were not many light stones on the stall, he glanced at it, and was about to look for other stalls to sell, at this time, the little girl asked softly: "Senior brother wants to buy light stones?" ”
Zhang Cundao hesitated, nodded and said, "I'm going to buy it, but your light stone seems to be too small and not bright enough." "The bigger and brighter the light stone, the higher the energy naturally contains.
When the girl heard this, she immediately said, "I have a bigger one!" She gestured, first to the size of a basketball, and then to the point where she felt something was wrong, and opened it a little wider, and it became the size of a water basin.
"I've got this big, but I can't bring it, it's too big and heavy!" The little girl said with a sad face.
Indeed, there is no means of storage, and it is really difficult to carry such a large thing.
Zhang Cundao nodded, then glanced around, and suddenly saw a light stone the size of a human head in another stall. He said, "Since I didn't bring it, then I can only look at other houses." ”
He was about to leave, but he didn't expect the little girl to grab the corner of his clothes at once, and said pitifully: "Senior brother, just buy my light stone, I'll give it a cheaper, I really need money......"
Zhang Cundao said: "Everyone needs money very much......"
When the girl heard this, she shook her head and said, "No, my brother was kicked by a big-footed tall bird when he was looking for stones in the mountains, and he needed money to buy medicine and see a doctor...... Normally, he comes to sell the light stones, but he can't get up now......"
The little girl said pitifully, with tears in her eyes.
Zhang Cundao looked at her, he knew that the people of the Nine Colored Xia Sect would not lie. And looking at her pitiful appearance, there is also a trace of compassion in my heart.
So he said, "If that's the case, I can buy your light stone......"
Before he finished speaking, the little girl quickly put away the things in front of her, and then said, "Senior brother, I'll take you to my brother's cave." We live in Chifeng. ”
Zhang Cundao immediately said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I still have to buy other things, let's talk about it when I'm done." ”
But this little girl was afraid of long nights and dreams, so she immediately said, "It's okay, I can follow you, and when you finish shopping, I'll take you to my house." ”
Zhang Cundao couldn't help but smack his lips when he heard it, is this light stone so difficult to sell? It's all rolled up like this now! In his stunned effort, the little girl had already packed her baggage, she carried those light stones on her back, stood beside Zhang Cundao, and looked up at Zhang Cundao.
"Okay, okay, I'm going to buy some crystals." Zhang Cundao said helplessly.
"You want to buy crystals? I know someone with good crystals, I'll take you there! When he had finished speaking, the little girl spoke at once. Then he pulled Zhang Cundao's sleeve and ran in one direction.
Zhang Cundao followed the little girl and came to a stall. Then the little girl shouted: "Brother Qu, I brought you a guest!" ”
This stall owner is a simple young man, he smiled at Zhang Cundao when he heard this, and then said, "Thank you, Sister Yun." Is this guest buying crystals? ”
His stall also only has crystal, but there are many more varieties of crystals, and there are crystals of various colors.
Zhang Cundao looked at these crystals and found that the quality was not bad, so he said, "Do you have any bigger and more transparent crystals?" ”
When the young man heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, there are all kinds of things." With that, he stood up and lifted the cloth from under his butt.
As soon as the cloth was lifted, what caught Zhang Cundao's eyes was a white crystal the size of a grinding disc. This crystal was actually used as a mound by this young man!
The young man took out a chisel and said, "I will chisel you as big as you want, guest." "What he means, this thing can also be customized!
Zhang Cundao hurriedly said: "You don't need to chisel it, I want this piece!" "This crystal is big enough, as long as you carve it, it will definitely be used as a lens for a high-power red light therapy device!
In the end, this big crystal was sold at the price of 10,000 coins, and both parties were overjoyed and thought they had earned!
After purchasing this big crystal, Zhang Cundao bought some other things before ending today's purchase. And the little girl also followed him step by step.
During the conversation, it was learned that this little girl's surname was Yun, and she and his brother were both new disciples. Her brother could have come to Chifeng to study a long time ago, but in order to wait for her, it was delayed for several years, and finally the two siblings came in together.
The brothers and sisters of the Yun family make a living by collecting light stones, and the young man surnamed Qu who bought the crystal makes a living by collecting crystals. Both of them were quarrymen, so they naturally had some connections, and often went together to collect stones in the mountains.
As mentioned earlier, under the sea of clouds is a vast blessed land, where all kinds of materials are produced, and many new and old disciples rely on collecting materials from the blessed land in exchange for cultivation resources.
After all, farming and breeding are also technical activities...... In particular, it is still planting spirit grass and raising spirit animals.
Zhang Cundao followed the little girl back to Chifeng, originally the little girl still needed to ride a big bird to travel, which cost a little color coin. However, Zhang Cundao was troublesome, and flew back to Chifeng with her sword light. This made the little girl very envious, after all, she could fly, so she didn't have to spend money to fly a big bird!
When she came to Yun Girl's cave, there was a young man with a golden face and lying on the bed in her cave. And next to the young man, there is a light stone the size of a bathtub!
This light stone is so big! Zhang Cundao sighed secretly in his heart. Then he saw the little girl hurrying up and whispering to the young man.
After a while, the young man saluted Zhang Cundao and said, "Thank you brother for your generosity and help me tide over the difficulties." ”
Zhang Cundao glanced at him, this person's face was like gold, this was due to great internal injuries, but this is not an incurable disease, it is still very easy to treat in the Jiucai Xia Sect, after all, there are even gods like deer rank grass in the sect......
Zhang Cundao looked at the light stone and asked curiously: "This is the first time I have seen such a big light stone, how did you get it?" ”
The young man smiled bitterly and said, "A few days ago I went to the mountains to look for a stone, and I happened to find this stone in a huge cave, and it was placed in the middle of the cave, and there was nothing to protect it. ”
"So, I'm going to carry the stone home. Unexpectedly, before I could reach the entrance of the cave, I was surrounded by a flock of big-footed gray tall birds. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Cundao couldn't help but ask, "By a group?" ”
The young man held back a painful smile and nodded.
Then Zhang Cundao suddenly understood. In addition to lighting, this light stone can be used to grow vegetables, and it can also hatch birds' eggs! This light stone is obviously the hatcher of the Bigfoot Gray High Bird! This flurry baby stole someone else's incubator, which wants to be regarded as stealing someone else's delivery room! This is the hatred of the offspring.
"So, you were kicked and beaten by a group of tall birds, and you can still carry this light stone back?" Zhang Cundao's face was incredible.
The young man nodded and said, "This is natural, otherwise I won't be beaten in vain!" ”
Zhang Cundao was speechless for a while, and an adult gray tall bird could kick and break the thick trunk of the bowl. And what is it that makes one hold back a flock of such tall birds and steal their hatchers?
It's poor!
No one can endure being poor enough to be poor. The Yun family brothers not only have to bear their own resource expenses, but also their sister's resource expenses, and this life must not be easy.
Zhang Cundao glanced at them, sighed and said, "My mushroom farm still needs some manpower, if you don't dislike it, come to work on my farm." I may not be able to pay you too much, but no tall bird will kick you! ”
