Chapter 34: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and the Yellow Sparrow Follows
Xu Anping stepped forward.
There are a total of five cheats on the stall.
They are "Rakshasa Legs", "Zhongfu Hand", "Empty Knife", "Dividing Flower Steps", and "Holding Yuan Gong".
Generally speaking, the cheats named after the three words Jin, Gong, and Fa are the cheats of the exercises, and the others are basically martial arts.
Xu Anping had learned the basics of martial arts and knew these common senses very well, so he directly pointed to the secret book of "Holding Yuan Gong", and asked in a suppressed voice:
"What realm is this holding Yuan Gong?"
The stall owner is a middle-aged man with gray temples, sitting calmly behind the stall.
After hearing Xu Anping's question, he glanced up casually and said casually: "Forging Bone Realm." ”
Xu Anping's eyes suddenly lit up.
The bone forging technique is exactly his goal.
"Can I take a look, then?"
He continued to ask in a low voice.
"Yes, but you can only read it for a while, and you are only allowed to turn a few pages casually."
"Only a few pages? So how can I tell if the cheats are real or fake? ”
"Young man, you're on the black market for the first time, aren't you? This is the uniform rule of the black market, buy if you can accept it, and leave if you can't. ”
Xu Anping was silent for a moment and said, "Then I'll take a look first." ”
He picked up the secret book of Bao Yuan Gong on the table, flipped through a few pages at random, and saw that the paper in it was as simple and yellowish as the book cover, obviously after a long period of baptism.
Looking at the content of these pages, it seems that it is completely in line with the common sense of martial arts.
Although he still couldn't determine whether it was true or false, Xu Anping was not entangled, put down the cheats, and asked casually:
"How much does this cheat cost?"
"A hundred taels of silver."
"One hundred taels?"
Xu Anping frowned, and said in a deep voice: "It's just a secret book of the Bone Forging Realm, or in the black market, you can't be sure whether it's true or not, do you dare to open your mouth like this?" ”
"And how much do you think it's worth?"
"I inquired before I came, and the bone forging technique is only thirty taels of silver at most."
"Thirty taels?! Get out of here! ”
The middle-aged man scolded.
Xu Anping turned around and left without hesitation.
In fact, he didn't inquire about the price of the exercises at all, and he had nowhere to inquire, and the reason why he said a fracture price that the other party couldn't agree to at all was just to find an excuse to leave.
After all, his current net worth is only a dozen taels of silver, and he can't afford to buy the cheats of the exercises, so he is only coming to the black market to explore the market.
What Xu Anping didn't expect was.
As soon as he walked a dozen steps away, he heard the voice of the middle-aged man behind him: "Wait! Thirty taels is thirty taels! ”
Hearing this, Xu Anping walked away decisively without pausing, and disappeared from the sight of the middle-aged man after a while.
The vicissitudes of life middle-aged had to sit down scolding.
……
After leaving the stall, Xu Anping continued to wander around the black market for a while, and saw other cheats on the other two stalls.
It's just that there are only two books of exercises.
Moreover, one of them is just an ordinary cultivation exercise, and although the other is a bone forging exercise, the pages of the cheats are relatively new, and the content also has some obvious mistakes, omissions and unreasonableness.
Of course, if it is an ordinary person who has not systematically studied martial arts knowledge, it is completely impossible to judge the authenticity of this cheats book based on a few pages of content.
As a disciple of the sect, when Xu Anping was promoted to a formal disciple, in addition to learning literacy and hyphenation, he also learned a series of basic knowledge of martial arts, coupled with the fact that he had cultivated to the Five Great Consummations, and his understanding of martial arts was far above that of ordinary people, so he could roughly judge whether the content was reasonable.
Merely.
Although Xu Anping knew that the cheats were fake, in order to find out the bottom line of the price of the bone forging exercise, he still tried to negotiate the price with the stall owner.
"How much does this cheats cost?"
"Fifty taels, no two prices."
"Twenty-two lines are not okay?"
"It's not a bargain, this is a high-level exercise cheat in the Bone Forging Realm, you want twenty taels? You dream about it! Let's go! ”
The stall owner waved his hands impatiently to chase away people.
Xu Anping didn't care about the other party's attitude at all, still stood in place, and continued:
"I asked at another stall just now, he is also a bone forging exercise, and he can sell it for twenty taels, why is it so expensive?"
"You get what you pay for, he can sell it so cheaply, it must be fake! And I'm real. ”
"Anyway, I can't tell the truth from the fake, you can't sell these twenty taels of silver, can you? If I can't, I'll turn around and buy that one, although I don't like that book very much, but since the price is so different, there's nothing to pick. ”
"Forget it!" The stall owner pretended to be helpless and waved his hand: "Seeing that your kid is sincere, I will sell it to you at a loss, and if you succeed in practicing in the future, just remember to accept my favor." ”
Hearing this, Xu Anping said excitedly: "Then thank you boss, when I become a powerhouse in the Bone Forging Realm, I will definitely come back to thank you." ”
"That's not necessary, I've always liked to help young geniuses, as soon as you hear your voice, you are a young man, you can practice the bone forging exercise, it can be seen that the talent and strength are quite good, this exercise can help you, and it can be regarded as a merit of mine."
The stall owner was still pretending to be polite.
Xu Anping responded casually, touched the pocket on his chest, and then paused.
"Oh no, my purse has been stolen, you wait, I'll go back and buy my purse again."
After speaking, Xu Anping disappeared from the stall owner's sight as soon as he slipped away, leaving the stall owner alone in the moonlight.
"Stinky boy, you dare to fool me!"
……
After leaving the stall, Xu Anping quickly walked to the end of the street, and when he saw that there were no other stalls behind, he turned around decisively and returned.
But when he returned to the entrance of the black market, his eyes inadvertently saw the strangely dressed man in black again, and the other party was also about to leave the black market.
And not far behind the man in black, the two sneaky young men were still following.
Xu Anping didn't want to be nosy.
But the man in black seemed to be on the same road as him, walking dozens of meters in front of him, and the two tailgators were more than ten meters in front of him.
If Xu Anping continued to walk forward like this, he would probably be regarded as tailgating, and even attract the attention of the man in black in front of him, causing the tailgating actions of the two young people to be exposed, and thus offending each other.
He didn't want to be noticed.
Frowning, Xu Anping turned a corner somewhere and hid behind a corner.
"Since it's sent to the door, then I'll just play a handful of black and eat black, just to pool the money to buy cheats."
The thought suddenly crossed his mind, and he cautiously followed behind the three men.
It didn't take a while.
When the man in black walked to a remote corner, he looked carefully left and right for a moment, and then took the initiative to burrow into the alley.
The two young men who were following hurriedly rushed in, fearing that the ducks in their hands would fly away.
There is not a word of nonsense, and a sneak attack is directly violent.
