Chapter 269: Meet Again (Fifth Update)
Opposite the gray-robed man stood a ghost creature with a bull's head, and the two glared angrily.
Behind the stall stood an old ghost in a black robe, his face was slightly embarrassed, but there was a trace of greed in the depths of his eyes.
"Shopkeeper, I will give you eight pieces of spirit jade for this thing. The minotaur turned to the stall owner.
"You...... Okay! I'll give you nine pieces!" The gray-robed man's eyes flashed with anger, but he forcibly suppressed it again, and said coldly.
"Ten pieces!" the minotaur refused.
"Twelve pieces of immortal jade!" the gray-robed figure said immediately, as if he was determined to win.
You compete with each other, and the price soars to more than twenty pieces of immortal jade in a blink of an eye.
When Shen Luo heard this, he couldn't help but have some curiosity about the things that the two were fighting for, what could be sold for twenty pieces of immortal jade, and looked at the stall with a stunned expression.
In their hands was a fist-sized, gray stone, which did not look unremarkable, just like an ordinary stone.
However, with his bamboo tube precedent there, he didn't dare to underestimate this stone and look at it carefully.
On the other side, the gray-robed man and the bull-headed ghost creature continued to compete.
"Twenty-five pieces of immortal jade!" the gray-robed man said slowly.
"I'll give twenty-six yuan!" the minotaur was no longer as casual as before, and it seemed that his financial resources had reached the limit, and he hesitated for a moment before saying.
"Thirty!" The gray-robed man seemed to see the hesitation of the bull-headed ghost, and added four pieces of immortal jade at once, wanting to completely suppress the other party.
"Hmph, follow me, that's good, I'll give out forty pieces of immortal jade, as long as you can exceed this number, I'll turn around and leave." "I don't know that the bull-headed ghost thing stared at the bull's eyes, as if the cow had a temper attack, and said angrily.
The gray-robed man didn't speak, and hesitated.
"Why, can't you take it out? The minotaur looked at the other party, laughed, took out a small bag still on the stall, and reached for the stone.
"Wait a minute, who said I didn't!" The gray-robed man shouted, raised his hand to stop the hand of the bull-headed ghost, took out a small cloth bag and unfolded it, and there were also pieces of fairy jade inside.
"You only have thirty-two pieces of immortal jade here. The minotaur glanced at the cloth bag and said disdainfully.
"Although the immortal jade is not enough, but I can offset it with things, this shadow talisman is what I just bought, and I haven't used it once, it is more than enough to compensate for eight pieces of immortal jade. The gray-robed man snorted, flipped his hand and took out a gray-black talisman with a soldier's pattern drawn on it.
"I'm sorry, the little old man is shallow, not good at discernment, and does not accept barter. The black-robed old ghost of the stall owner hurriedly waved his hand, and at the same time had a dry finger, pointing to a wooden board next to the stall, on which were written the four big characters "Only accept fairy jade".
The gray-robed man was stunned, rubbing his hands together, and his expression was anxious.
"Fellow Daoists, this Shadow Talisman was just bought for twelve pieces of immortal jade, and now it only costs nine pieces of immortal jade, but anyone is willing to buy it?"
It's a pity that the surroundings are quiet, and there is no ghost interface.
"This fire talisman also only costs nine pieces of immortal jade. The gray-robed man took out a talisman again and shouted.
The onlookers looked at each other, but still no one spoke.
"Hey, don't delay here, if you don't have enough immortal jade, it's not enough, if you spend an hour to raise money, do I have to wait for you here for an hour? Everyone is very busy. The minotaur snorted.
The gray-robed man's eyes sank, and he was about to say something, when he suddenly saw Shen Luo standing outside, and his eyes lit up.
"Tian Daoyou, I don't know if I can help me a thing or two, and there will be a reward later. The man hesitated, but walked over and bowed his hand.
"You and I are from the same place and should help each other. Shen Luo waved his hand, took out nine pieces of immortal jade and handed them over.
A trace of gratitude flashed in the gray-robed man's eyes, he thanked him, took the fairy jade and put it on the stall, and the black-robed old ghost looked at the fairy jade in front of him, and his shriveled face couldn't suppress his joy.
"As you said, I only need to take out more than forty pieces of immortal jade, and this thing will be mine. The gray-robed man glanced at the minotaur and took the stone.
The bull-headed ghost creature glared at the gray-robed man, but he didn't stop it, snorted, took back his immortal jade, turned around and strode away.
The ghosts in the vicinity saw that there was no excitement to see, and they dispersed one after another, and the old ghost in black robe didn't know whether he was afraid that the gray-robed man would regret it or something, so he quickly put away his stall and disappeared into the crowd.
However, before many ghosts left, they still looked at the gray-robed man intentionally or unintentionally, as well as the gray stone in his hand, with complicated expressions.
Forty-one pieces of immortal jade have been able to buy a medium-grade magic weapon, but now that they have bought such a piece of gray stone, they don't know what the use is.
The gray-robed man put away the stones, gestured to Shen Luo, and walked quickly in the direction of the shops.
Shen Luo understood and quickly followed.
The two of them blended into the crowd around the shop, weaving left and right in the shops, making sure to get rid of all the people who were paying attention before stopping in an uninhabited alley.
"Thank you Daoyou for your help just now, I don't know if the nine pieces of immortal jade, do you want to use the talisman to compensate, or will I go and sell the talisman and return the Daoyou immortal jade?"
"Although these two talismans are good, they are not needed in the next place, and Daoyou will replace them with immortal jade for me later." Shen Luo said.
"Good. The gray-robed man nodded immediately.
After this incident, the relationship between the two has become much closer.
"I don't know what kind of treasure that stone is, it is worth buying at any cost. Shen Luo hesitated, but he still couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and asked.
The gray-robed man glanced at Shen Luo, his eyes a little hesitant.
"I'll just ask casually, if you feel embarrassed, just because I didn't speak. Shen Luo smiled when he saw this and said.
"There's nothing I can't say, and if it weren't for Your Excellency's help, I wouldn't be able to get my hands on this thing, and it's a matter of course to solve your doubts for fellow Daoists. The gray-robed man exhaled lightly, his gaze became relaxed, and he said in a brisk tone.
"This thing is called Shadowless Jade, and it is a rare treasure from the ghost world, which can be described as priceless and marketable, and I just need it urgently. He paused for a moment, and then quickly continued, taking out the gray stone and keeping it close to the ground.
Shen Luo's face showed a look of surprise, and his mouth was shocked.
The valley was lit up all over the place, and the alley was lit up, but there was not a shadow below the stone.
"There's really no shadow, but it's just a shadow, it doesn't seem to be a strange treasure, there should be other magical powers in this thing, right?" he quickly put away his look of surprise and asked.
