Chapter 200: Monks Are Human, Too

After leaving, Shen Yun pretended to visit the market, and at the same time secretly used his true qi to count the number of spirit beads in the treasure bag.

Soon, he counted them all. There really wasn't a mistake, no more, no less, exactly a thousand spirit beads.

Scratching his head, he followed the plan and first went to the middle-aged uncle from the previous time to buy rune paper and rune pens.

The stalls here looked disorganized, but after a closer look, he found that the stalls he had paid special attention to last time were still in place, and there was not much deviation. Come to think of it, the uncle who sells rune paper and rune pens is also there.

He guessed correctly, and sure enough, he found the middle-aged uncle in the last location.

"Little Daoyou, here!" The middle-aged uncle's business is good, and he just completed a transaction with a guest. When I looked up at him, I smiled lightly and greeted him familiarly.

Shen Yun stepped forward and squatted down in front of the stall: "Ten swords of rune paper and two rune pens." ”

The middle-aged uncle stretched out his hand and lit ten knives of rune paper from the stall, and picked out two rune pens for him: "The quality of this rune pen is slightly better than the last one." Xiao Daoyou is also a regular customer, so it's better to give the price last time. That's a total of eighty spirit beads. ”

"Is there a pass charm for the next time?" Shen Yun saw that he didn't make a small movement of his right hand this time, and he was curious, so he couldn't help but ask softly.

"I don't sell talismans here. Only two kinds of rune paper and rune pen are sold. The middle-aged uncle lowered his eyes, took the small black box beside him, and opened it, "Eighty spirit beads are inherited." ”

It is estimated that the owner of the stall is not allowed to trade with money, nor is it allowed to give a pass. Shen Yun let out an "oh" and used his true qi to grab eighty spirit beads from the treasure bag and put them in the box. Then, put a large pile of rune paper and two rune pens into the treasure bag,

Seeing this, the middle-aged uncle raised his eyes and smiled: "My surname is Peng, and I have been setting up a stall here." In addition to selling rune paper and rune pens, it also collects magic charms at a high price. Is Little Daoist a Fu Xiu?"

Shen Yunxin said: I can only draw the simplest lower grade talisman now, where can I get it? Besides, I am indeed not a monk.

"Oh, no. I'm helping people bring goods and earn some money. He waved his hand. Just now, when passing by a stall, he occasionally heard a customer with a big waist reply to the stall owner. At that time, I thought this was a good statement and decided to use it.

Like the stall owner, the middle-aged uncle also smiled and said no more.

After that, Shen Yun went to the stall selling Lingmi wine and Lingmi.

Compared to rune paper and rune pens, these two are much cheaper. And the prices of the two stalls are almost the same, so Shen Yun chose one of them at random.

The spirit rice wine packed in a small gourd weighs about one pound and sells for three spirit beads, and a bag of spirit rice weighs two pounds and each bag has one spirit bead. Shen Yun tried to buy three gourd wine and five bags of spirit rice, spending a total of fourteen spirit beads.

He quietly asked the stall owner if there was a pass charm for the next time. The latter glanced left and right, lowered his voice and told him, "Fellow Daoist, if you want to use money, you have to wait until the evening." In broad daylight, who dares to accept money? That little difference, if you have the courage to make it, you can't spend it. ”

Shen Yun understood: It turned out that only by trading with silver money, the stall owners could earn the difference, and it was possible to send the next pass. And because the risk is too great, they only dare to sneak in the money at night.

For a long time, he thought that the monks were like the Yuning Dao Chiefs, immortal wind and bones, and did not eat the fireworks of the world. After visiting Ishiqiaobo City twice, he was surprised to find that monks were also human beings. Like ordinary people, they also seek profit and gossip......

Seeing that the stall owner was young and very talkative, his heart moved, and he tried to inquire: "Let me ask you, which one sells the best exercise cheats here?"

"It's all pretty much the same. There are real exercises and cheats, and if you can't hide them, where will you take them out for money?" the stall owner smiled.

Reasonable. Outside, money is also easy to obtain, and martial arts cheats are not available. Shen Yun thanked him and dispelled the idea of buying the cheats of the Gong Fa - time was pressing, so he wouldn't waste time on those stalls.

In the end, there was still one cinnabar ink left that I didn't buy. This is one of the most troublesome things. In the market, there are no less than ten stalls bought with cinnabar ink. Moreover, there is more than one price of cinnabar ink at each stall.

What is good?

Shen Yun himself has been a pharmacy shop for half a year and a bookkeeper in a grocery store for three years, and he knows very well that "one penny, one penny". Even if it is a stealer, the same kind of thing, which sells at an expensive price, is definitely better than a cheap one.

So, he went directly to the stall with the best business and took the most expensive cinnabar ink - the cinnabar ink in the fang market was all packed in a big jade box. Guests buy cinnabar ink with their own jade bottles or jade bowls. When selling, the stall owner uses a white jade spoon with a long handle to scoop a spoonful from the big jade box, which is called a serving.

Of course, the stall owner also offers jade bottles. It's just that the price of a hundred cinnabar inks is not as high as a small jade bottle three fingers high.

Shen Yun looked at it coldly, although most of the guests in the market were brightly dressed, there were no high-rollers who spent a lot of money.

Especially those who buy rune paper and cinnabar ink. They are generally dressed in a more modest way way than the rest of the guests. I guess it's because it costs too much to learn talismans, and they don't have a lot of money on hand.

There are a few jade bowls in the treasure in the red lacquer box. It's just that Shen Yun didn't have any of them with him. Anyway, the shelf life of the treasure bag is very good, so after paying for a cinnabar ink spirit bead, he took out a clean white porcelain bowl from the treasure bag.

When the stall owner saw the bowl in his hand, he was stunned for a moment, and then frowned dissatisfiedly: "I said to you, my family's purple gold cinnabar ink is the best quality in this Shiqiaofang City." The price is also very reasonable. Are you slapping me in the face with this ordinary porcelain bowl?"

"It's not. I only brought this one. Shen Yun hurriedly explained, "I came with a friend. He had a jade box on him. ”

"That's right. The stall owner was suspicious, scooped a spoonful of cinnabar ink into his bowl, and told him with anxiety, "The blood of the purple gold rat is originally the most delicate in the blood of demon beasts of the same level, and it is not easy to preserve. The cinnabar ink made from it is also the easiest to dry. A piece of cinnabar ink was placed in the bowl in the hand of the Taoist friend, and it was completely discarded in less than half an hour. It is best to meet up with your friend as soon as possible and put it in a jade box for preservation. ”

"Thank you. Shen Yun's heart was shocked, and it was not easy to show it on his face-demon beast! My Heavenly Emperor Master, it turns out that the best cinnabar ink is to be mixed with the blood of demon beasts.

Uh, monster blood! If you really encounter a demon beast, who will hunt whom, I don't know.

There was a mention of demon beasts in the Codex of the Great Master Ancestor. It was a demon insect called the Seven Heart Worm, and Taishi Ancestor spent a lot of time in the Codex to write in detail how to fight against it.

The process can be described as thrilling and thrilling, in addition, Taishi Zu also took advantage of two points of luck, and finally slashed the vicious and cunning seven-hearted demon insect under the sword. And he himself was exhausted and scarred, and he recuperated in bed for half a month before gradually recovering.
