Autumn is harvest time.

But for the monks of Lianyun City, no.

At this time, Lianyun City was dilapidated everywhere, and the brown-yellow fallen leaves, combined with the cool autumn breeze, made the whole city permeated with a sense of desolation and slaughter.

Morning.

Chen Ping went to House 4 and passed through the city's inner market, and found that many shops had closed their doors and the buildings were empty.

The Fu Gong shop is closed.

Dan Pharmacy is closed.

The Lingmi shop was also closed.

Even the Dharma book shop was closed.

The ritual shop is still going strong...

Chen Ping had relatives in his heart, but fortunately, he bought almost enough elixir and spiritual rice for one year a few months ago.

Otherwise, there is something to be done now.

Inside House 4.

Chen Ping worked hard for a long time, and finally boiled a bunch of poison pills. He picked up a crystal clear 'Aconitum pill' with a bamboo chopstick, and sniffed it for the wild animals in the cage...

Well, it's fine.

As the book says, it is only poisonous if you take it, and you won't have any problems smelling it.

That's when I sniffed it myself.

Well, there is no smell at all.

He put the aconitum pills into a water cup, then poured in the water, picked up a chopstick and stirred it gently.

The aconitum pills slowly dissolved, and when the level in the cup was calm, he picked it up and looked at it, and there was no color.

That's a glass of water.

He raised it up again and looked at the slanting sun projected outside the window, and there was no impurity in the clear water, which was clear and clear.

Let's see how it goes. ’

"Little Ash, come, drink the medicine."

Chen Ping poured the water into a small plate, put some greens, and brought it to the front of the cage of the gray unknown herbivore wildlife.

At the moment when Xiao Ash began to eat, Chen Ping silently counted in his heart at the same time:

“1，2，3...”

After about half a minute, Ash began to convulse, foaming at the mouth, and after a few seconds, he was dying.

It seems that it worked. ’

Chen Ping carefully packed the successfully boiled 'Aconitum Pills' into porcelain bottles one by one, with ten pieces in each bottle, a full 8 bottles.

Enough for a long time.

After thinking about it, I remarked the label on the porcelain vase:

[Changseimaru].

Put it in the cuffs, take care of the room, see the little ash on the ground, ponder...

'It should taste good when dried in jerky, right?' ’

'Can't waste it. ’

......

Two days later, after Chen Ping had practiced the Evergreen Skill for a few hours, he began to open the defensive spell "Stone Armor Jue" that he had bought before.

At present, there will be a defensive spell 'Golden Tortoise Shell', and it has been exposed to the public, unless it is fought openly, it is no longer convenient to use it.

This was the case with the Dragon Tiger Gang a few days ago.

So I have to learn another course.

During the Qi training period, the Stone Armor Technique and the Golden Tortoise Shell Technique are similar in many aspects, and the practice is like this, and the results are also the same.

The difference is that the appearance is not the same.

The golden tortoise shell is a layer of tortoise shell with a pattern, which is golden in color. The stone carapace, on the other hand, is a mottled shell like gray rock.

Chen Ping doesn't care about appearance.

Just be practical.

After a while, I quickly got started, even faster than the last time I practiced the Golden Tortoise Shell Technique.

[Spell: Stone Armor (Starter): 1/1000.] …】

'Looks like I'm good for defensive spells. Chen Ping couldn't laugh or cry.

I don't know how to be happy.

Or should I be happy.

Case.

Then you can also practice another defensive spell, "Qingyun Body Shield", together.

Easy anyway.

An hour later, a white halo appeared on his body. It's not like a tortoise shell or a stone carapace, which doesn't have a recognizable form at a glance.

If you have to say, it's a layer of light.

[Spell: Qingyun Protective Shield (Beginner): 1/1000.] …】

Well.

Let's take it slowly!

……

In the afternoon, Chen Ping moved a little, and then got up to go to Zhang Zheng's house.

Buy some finished skins.

He hadn't made talisman skins for a while, and the finished skins had long since run out, mainly because he didn't have enough time, so he didn't buy them right away.

Now I'll have to make some talisman skins, or I'll be useless.

Meanwhile.

While Chen Ping was going to Zhang Zheng's house, the other three monks walked on the road to this street.

"Brother, is it really okay to blackmail Yu Lingchun? She is Yu Qingyi's granddaughter. A monk in Tsing Yi asked.

There were two other people walking beside the monk in green clothes, and the hook-nosed monk led by him reprimanded: "What are you afraid of? How long has Yu Qingyi been dead, look at you like that. ”

Another added:

"Don't worry about it, the girl is easy to scare. I have a friend who works as an errand in the Wild Wolf Gang, and they blackmailed Yu Lingchun twice and easily succeeded. ”

"Hey, hey, hey."

"Brother, when I get this spirit stone, I'm going to buy ten jars of spirit wine and drink enough."

"Out of breath, with the spirit stone, it is natural to go to the hook fence. I'm telling you, those are going to seduce people's secret arts, hey, hey, hey..."

“......”

......

Not far away, Chen Ping soon arrived at Zhang Zheng's house.

knocked on the door of Zhang Zheng's house, and the maid opened the door wisely. In fact, he could enter directly without going through the door, and half of the wall of his house had collapsed, and not only that, but there was also a big crack on one side of the house.

Dilapidated house, this belongs to is.

When Chen Ping entered the courtyard, he saw Zhang Xianqiu squatting in the corner of the courtyard.

She gulped a big sip of water at the moment, didn't swallow it, and then sprayed it on the grass with a 'poof'.

It's pouring ... Grass?

Artificial watering cans?

"What are you doing, little brat?" Chen Ping leaned over.

Zhang Xianqiu looked up at Chen Ping, and her eyes lit up:

"Uncle, my name is Zhang Xianqiu."

Chen Ping smiled.

I don't know if I look like a piece of jerky in the eyes of this little kid?

"What are you doing?"

"Spray the grass with water."

"Little boy, what kind of water to water the grass, the better this grass grows, the easier it is to have insects, you see if there is a bug on this grass, so big, fat and fat, it hurts to bite." There was really a bug, and Chen Ping was willing to scare and scare her.

"Uncle, where are you?"

Following Chen Ping's fingers, Zhang Xianqiu finally saw a chubby green worm on the leaf.

"Gollum."

An inexplicable voice came.

Chen Ping: ......

... That's a bug.

... Brother Zhang, while you're still young, let's have another one.

threw Zhang Xianqiu a small bag of dried meat and went straight to find Zhang Zheng.

Knowing that Chen Ping was going to buy the skin, Zhang Zheng was excited.

"Chen Daoyou, sit, sit." Zhang Zheng hurriedly greeted Chen Ping, and ordered his maid to pour spiritual tea.

"By the way, how many tickets does Chen Daoyou want this time?"

"Since you bought it, let's buy more, 500 at once."

Zhang Zheng was stunned, and then he was happy.

happily secretly patted his leg.

"Okay, Chen Daoyou don't worry, I will still pick the best for you." After Zhang Zheng finished speaking, he said worriedly:

However, can Chen Daoyou know the latest market? Now the price of finished skins in the market has risen, and the price is slightly higher than before. ”

Chen Ping said indifferently:

"It's okay, just follow the market price."

Zhang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief:

"Chen Daoyou rest assured, it's not expensive. When there are fifty low-grade spirit stones in the city, I will give you a little cheaper, sixty low-grade spirit stones, how about it? ”

Chen Ping didn't bargain, this price is not expensive.

The two immediately negotiated the price, but Zhang Zheng didn't have so many skins in his hands now, so he only gave Chen Ping 150 sheets, and agreed to send them to Chen Ping after a while.

"By the way, what's going on in your house? Not repairing and repairing? Before going back, Zhang Zheng sent Chen Ping out, and Chen Ping asked casually.

The broken window effect.

Such a house is not safe.

"Hey, I just fell a few days ago. A few Taoist friends had a dispute over there, and somehow they suddenly fought, hey, I'm lucky..."Zhang Zheng said speechlessly, others fought, his own house suffered, and he couldn't find a claim object afterwards, so he was very angry.

Chen Ping is professionally trained, so naturally he can't laugh.

After a pause, he asked:

"My left neighbor just moved out recently, Lin Changshou, you should know him. Do you want to move in? The houses over there are in good condition, and you save money on repairs. ”

A neighborhood that doesn't make trouble, doesn't cause trouble, and keeps to itself is actually rare.

Zhang Zheng's family has a little daughter, which is relatively stable.

It's a nice neighborhood.

Hearing Chen Ping's words, Zhang Zheng didn't answer directly, he had thought about moving, but he was reluctant to live in the current house.

Stayed for several years.

It's all out of feelings.

"I'll think again, I'll think again." Zhang Zheng hesitated.

Chen Ping naturally didn't say anything, and went home with the talisman skin.

As a result, as soon as I walked to the door of the house, I saw that someone was looking for Yu Lingchun again.
