Chapter 22: The Heart of the Woad Tree (Seeking Reading)

"Senior sister's craftsmanship is awesome!" Alan exclaimed, "Don't look any further, I'll pay the bill." ”

"Don't worry!" The Weaver Girl grabbed his hand, her eyes were ambiguous, "If you don't wear it, how do you know if it's suitable?" ”

"Let's go! Little brother, come into the house with me! ”

"Once you've tried it, it's never too late to check out."

"Otherwise, I'll stick to the head office, right?"

"Forget it, I really don't need to! Senior sister, I absolutely believe in your craftsmanship! ”

Still in the house?

Spare me!

It's not like Alan has been drained of energy.

I really saw something I shouldn't have seen just now, spicy eyes!

Before stepping out of the psychological shadow, I don't want to have an intimate relationship with the Weaver Girl for the time being.

In the end, he was forced to exchange the secret mark with the Weaver Girl, and Eren was able to escape.

A dozen silk shorts and a storage bag.

Alan walked to the door of the market empty-handed.

When I was about to go out, I suddenly received a system prompt.

"Detect the smell of special ingredients!"

Well? Good luck!

Alan smiled slightly, turned around, and followed the detection direction given by the system to search for special ingredients.

……

A sign is posted in the window of a shop.

"Tauna and Angela's material shop!"

"All kinds of herbs and spell casting materials are sold, welcome to order!"

Alan pushed the door open and walked into the material store.

The smell of special ingredients led him here.

The smell of herbs fills the shop.

Two women looking at the store.

The taller woman, dressed in a green dress, sat at the counter, resting her cheek with one hand and yawning boredly.

There is also a petite and delicate girl.

He wore an apron and a white towel tied to his head.

With his back to the door, he stood on tiptoe with a feather duster.

Dusting the top layer of the shelves is struggling to be cleaned.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the woman in the green dress seemed to be awakened, raised her head sharply, and blurted out to Allen:

"Welcome!"

Alan looked at her and couldn't help frowning.

This woman doesn't look very old.

It's a little too anxious.

His face was pale and his lips were blue.

High cheekbones, hooked nose, triangular eyes.

This face is an old witch!

It looks mean and hard to mess with.

The girl who cleaned also turned back.

The appearance is quite eye-catching.

The head is less than 1.5 meters tall, with pink skin, chubby cheeks that are slightly baby fat, and a cute double ponytail.

A pair of big black eyes flashed, and he was looking at the visitor curiously.

It is more innocent and romantic than his actual age, which is pitiful.

"Ahem!!"

The girl in the green dress, who looked like a witch, coughed heavily.

Trying to redraw Allen's gaze from the double ponytail Lori to himself.

"If your guest needs anything, just ask."

The girl in the green dress squeezed out a commercial smile.

It's okay not to laugh.

When he laughs, he looks even more gloomy, and he seems to have bad intentions.

The voice is quite good, crisp and delicate.

With this look, it is very inconsistent.

"I'll take a look first." Alan said casually.

"No problem, you can just look at it, just say what you need."

The girl in the green dress maintained a smirk on her face.

Alan turned and walked towards the shelf.

The smell of special ingredients came from above the shelves.

"Guest, do you need my help?"

The girl with a double ponytail asked Alan obediently.

"Put the wooden box at the top of the shelf, show it to me."

"Okay!"

The girl with the double ponytail stood on her tiptoes and reached for it.

His arms were stretched out and he couldn't reach them, and his embarrassed face was red.

"Guest, please wait!"

She ran over to move the bench and wanted to use it as a stepping stone.

"Don't bother you, I'll do it myself."

As soon as Alan stretched out his hand, he pulled out the wooden box above his head.

The double ponytail girl's eyes widened, her eyes full of envy.

"Wow! Hello high! ”

Alan is 1.92 meters tall, nearly half a meter taller than her!

The difference in altitude is indeed a bit overwhelming.

Alan smiled, handed her the wooden box, and motioned to open the lock.

"The key is in Tauna's hands."

The girl with the double ponytail lowered her voice to explain, and walked to the counter with the box in her arms.

The wooden box seemed too heavy for her.

"Hey! Whew......"

The girl struggled to hold the box and carefully placed it on the counter.

Turn around and walk to the shelf.

Suddenly there was a stumble under his feet, and with a pop, he fell flat beside Allen.

The skirt flipped up, revealing a touch of white trousers......

Alan quietly looked away and helped her up.

"Sister Angela! Are you okay? ”

The girl in the green dress leaned over and asked with concern.

"It's fine, I just accidentally fell."

The double ponytail girl's face was flushed, and she hurriedly patted the dust on her body, looking embarrassed.

Alan raised his eyebrows secretly.

He thought that the smaller-looking double-ponytail Lori was the junior sister, but it turned out to be the senior sister of the girl in the green dress.

Recall the name of the store.

It seems that the girl in the green dress is Tao Na.

Click!

The girl in the green dress opened the lock and pulled out a fist-sized mass from the box.

It looked black, like an irregular lump of mud.

Alan looked closer, and noticed that the surface of the thing had a delicate and complex wooden texture.

It turned out to be a wooden lump.

"This is the Heart of the Woad Tree, a very rare spellcasting material!"

Tauna holds the pimple and introduces it to Alan.

"Combine spells related to plants to increase the power of spells by at least ...... Well, at least thirty percent! ”

As she said this, she unconsciously avoided Allen's gaze.

Obviously, the boasted moisture is a bit big.

Eren doesn't know wood magic, and he doesn't mind Tauna selling herself to boast, she just wants to get potential from this woad heart.

"It's interesting."

Alan took the heart of the woad tree and looked at it over and over again.

Pretend to be interested.

"Senior sister, what do you call it?"

"Tauna, what about you?"

"Just call me Allen."

Putting down the heart of the tree, Alan asked Tao Na: "How to sell this woad heart?" ”

"Forty Attributeless Magic Stones!"

Tao Na seems to have calculated it a long time ago, and she doesn't think twice about the offer.

Hiss......

Alan wasn't doing anything yet, and Angela next to him couldn't hold back first.

I couldn't help but gasp, my eyes full of shock.

"Senior sister......" Angela asked Tao Na timidly, "Forty magic stones, will this ...... A little more expensive? ”

Tauna had already sharpened her knife and fork secretly, and was waiting to slaughter the fat sheep.

Hearing the senior sister interject, her face immediately sank.

"What's expensive? Who else but me can get the Woad Heart? ”

"The only good thing on the market, it's not expensive at all!"

"Uh-huh...... That's ...... too."

Angela seems to realize that as Tauna's partner, she should never tear down her stage and turn her elbow out.

Snorted twice, not daring to say more.

"Forty magic stones, too expensive." Alan groaned, "Ten magic stones, how about it?" ”

"What are you kidding?! Why don't you grab it! ”

Tauna flatly refused.

So the two sides bargained.

After a top-level pull, Alan was defeated.

In the end, "very reluctantly" sold for twenty-five magic stones.
