Chapter 366: Bargaining
After cleaning up the "stinky fish and rotten shrimp", Zhu Yuanlai yawned and returned to the prison world. After being a master of the demon clan for so many years, dealing with enemies of that level made him not interested at all.
"What's going on out there?" asked He Chongbao.
"It's not a 'thing' at all, it's just a group of little thieves who see money. Zhu Yuan replied, "The new master's strength is so weak, I'm afraid this kind of thing will be indispensable in the future." ”
"Alas. It took a long time for everyone to reunite with their master, but she didn't expect her to send the overseer out so easily. It's not worth it to think about. Tian Xiaoying also joined the conversation.
"Yes, doesn't she even want to take revenge?" Guan Lingyun said.
"Actually, after all," Zhu Yuanlai added, "that's just her great enemy." We are nothing more than guards or thugs working for her. Once the baby changes hands, what do we have to do with the past? The only thing that I can't let go of is the death of Brother Yin in Meng Zhangjie, which is too heroic and miserable. ”
"You can't say that. Since you have this experience, even if you change a thousand or ten thousand masters, it will be indelible. Hualin Dajun's gang is not right-hearted, if he is admired by the prison soldiers, which of you can willingly die for him?" He Chongbao asked.
"Then I'd rather die!" Tian Xiaoying said. Everyone else probably thinks the same way.
"Anyway, for the sake of Lei Xiaoyan and Tang Yuanxing, Xiao Tianhe will also find Hualin Dajun to avenge Brother Yin, and we will do our best to help each other at that time. The new master has a good relationship with Xiao Tianhe, I think she is also very kind, her strength is weak, and she is similar to Xiao Tianhe, Sister Yan, aren't they also quite relieved to protect him?" Du Huairou looked at this matter very openly.
"That...... I'm sorry, but I can actually hear everyone's words......" Hua Qingyu's timid voice sounded in the sky above the prison world.
"Haha, we know. Zhu Yuanlai said with a smile, "We have worked for Sister Chu for many years, and we are naturally a little unaccustomed to the sudden separation. Don't worry about it, we'll do our best to serve you in the future. ”
"Thank you. In fact, I also hope that the relationship with everyone can be with Tianxiao, oh, no, it is the same as Xiao Tianhe and them, and the relationship between friends is more conducive to us than the relationship between master and servant, isn't it? Hua Qingyu always spoke with a hint of apology.
At this time, Shen Shishen suddenly spoke: "How can you forget the pain of killing your husband? Not to mention that the master is still planning to regain the throne, and it is when he needs help." Besides, if the value of the Overseer Pei Tianbao level is there, how can she give it away easily? It can be seen from this that the master must have thought it out for her to give the Overseer Pei Xiang to others. Qingyu is the disciple of Hua Jun's lineage, and judging from the current situation of Hua Jun's lineage, I am afraid that all kinds of dangers will follow. Let's not worry about it, just protect her with all our hearts. ”
"Thank you. Hua Qingyu's voice was full of joy, "I like that you call me by my name directly." ”
"Chu Fanghua is a trustworthy person. The reason why I joined the prison community is also related to a promise she made. I'm sure she won't be untrustworthy. Cheng Yu flew away.
"What promise?" Zhu Yuanlai was curious.
"This ......," Cheng Yufei hesitated, "I don't want to say it yet." At that time, I made a condition that I had to have a good hand to help me. After seeing what you are capable of, I was quite satisfied, so I joined in. When I need your help, I hope you will help me, and I will try to repay this kindness. ”
"Hey, they're all my own brothers, so what's so polite. Zhu Yuan said, "By the way, Qingyu, if you have trouble in the future, just call me out, lest there are always different demon clans around you and arouse the suspicion of others." ”
"Good. ”
"Hey, hey!" a hand shook in front of Hua Qingyu's eyes, interrupting her communication with the demon clan in the Prison Realm.
"What are you doing?" Hua Qingyu pushed the hand away.
"Okay?" the "brazen" guy asked.
Hua Qingyu was stunned, just now she was concentrating on communicating her consciousness with the demon clan in the prison world, and she didn't pay attention to what this person said.
"Didn't you hear? I assure you, I'm not going to spoil your material. After getting the materials, I will immediately find a place to help you cast the Dan furnace, and you can supervise the whole process. You have that kind of powerful demon clan friend, I can't run away at all. The man repeated it again.
"Oh, this. Hua Qingyu said with a smile, "But you really ruined my materials when you arrived, and I didn't have a problem with you, you have a 'no money, you want a life', I can't help you." Is it worth your life for some material? That's not worth it. We're leaving, so do whatever you want. After speaking, Hua Qingyu put the three big boxes into the prison world, and turned around and left with Xiao Tianhe and Zhao Xianglin.
"Oh?storage magic weapon?" The man's eyes lit up when he saw the three boxes disappear in the blink of an eye, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly chased after him, "Wait, I can mortgage my storage bracelet to you!"
Hua Qingyu turned around, and the man was holding a green bracelet in his palm.
"That's good. Why don't you give it to me? Hua Qingyu liked the bracelet at a glance.
The man gritted his teeth: "You will take me with you and give it to you." ”
"No, I can't. Then you can sell it to me, thirty thousand pearls. Hua Qingyu said.
"Less. ”
"Thirty thousand and one pearls. ”
"What's the difference......
"Thirty-one thousand beads. ”
"I bought it for 50,000 beads!"
"Thirty-two thousand beads. ”
"At least forty-nine, right?"
"Thirty-three thousand beads. ”
"Forty-eight, I cut the meat!"
"Thirty-four thousand beads. ”
"Take a step back, forty-seven, forty-seven!
"Thirty-five thousand beads. ”
"Forty-six, you can kill me. ”
"Thirty-six thousand beads. ”
"I'll wait for you to rise to forty-five thousand. ”
"Then I don't want it. Hua Qingyu turned around and left.
"Alas, don't don't, thirty-six is thirty-six!" The man helplessly stuffed the bracelet into Hua Qingyu's hand.
After some bargaining, Xiao Tianhe and Zhao Xianglin were dumbfounded.
"Ouch, even the butt is lost!" the man wailed with a wry face.
Hua Qingyu pouted and said: "To put it bluntly, your thing is only 30,000 beads at most, where is it worth so much money? Giving you 36,000 is enough! Hey, you have already released your confession?
"I'm too poor to pay the materials and being chased and beaten, what is left?" the man shook his head and lamented.
"Good. You can help me forge the Dan furnace. After deducting 6,000 beads of material money and 30,000 beads, you will be given 30 beads as a deposit first, and the rest will be given to you when they are cast. Hua Qingyu said cruel words, her face did not change, and her heart did not beat.
The man couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted, "Why do I need to pay for the materials of the Dan Furnace for you? Besides, it's too little to give a deposit of 30 beads, right?"
"You are now in exile, and if you don't have the materials I give you, how can you have the opportunity to practice your casting skills? How many materials can you buy with 6,000 beads? Besides, I just promised that I will repay the materials you owe to others, and this girl will do what she says. "Hua Qingyu said.
"Uh...... That sounds fair...... Alright, that's it!" The man said, "I don't know what kind of Dan furnace you want to refine? What size?
"I will draw the pattern of the Dan furnace to you, and I will also indicate the size on the drawing, and the materials should be used strictly according to what I say. "Hua Qingyu said.
The man shrugged, he didn't understand what Hua Qingyu meant: "It must be that I will use whatever materials you buy, and I won't be so bad that I will steal your materials." ”
Hua Qingyu shook his head: "Qiankun Eight Kings Ding, the material of each tripod is different, it must be cast according to my ratio!"
"What are you talking about? Eight, Eight Kings Ding, Qiankun Eight Kings Ding?" The man's eyes were already as big as the Eight Kings Ding's air holes.
Hua Qingyu suddenly became alert: "What, have you seen it?"
"Not only have I seen it, but I have also touched it! At the beginning, I sent a set of Qiankun Eight Kings Ding to the hands of the Huajunmen people, and I suffered a lot along the way! If you want to cast the Eight Kings Ding, could it be that you are also a Huajunmen person? Are you a Ascender?" the man asked.
Involving the secrets of this door, Hua Qingyu did not answer immediately.
"Seeing that your strength is not strong, it should not be long before you ascended, right?" The man had already identified Hua Qingyu as an ascendant, "Let me tell you, the materials of the Yu Yu Realm are different from those of the Nether Realm, including casting, poison refining, and medicine refining. The alchemy materials of the Yu Yu Realm may not be able to withstand the materials of the Dan furnace of the Lower Realm, and the casting materials of the Nether Realm and here are also different, and you can't find them at all according to the original material formula. ”
I see.
Hua Qingyu knew that she had misunderstood him, and said, "Then what is that set of Qiankun Eight Kings Ding that you have seen?"
"They are all cast with relatively high-grade materials in the Yu Yu Realm. The man replied, "I'm afraid it's a recipe re-researched by your fellow sect master based on the situation of the Yu Yu Realm materials." ”
"Could it be that you made that set of Eight Kings Ding, do you remember what that recipe was?" Hua Qingyu asked eagerly.
It's a pity, the man shook his head: "At that time, I had just entered the Casting Dao for a short time, but I didn't have that much ability to cast the Dan Furnace, I was just helping people transport the Eight Kings Ding." When I saw the Eight Kings, it was already a finished product. However, I can guess the composition of the material, but I don't know the specific ratio. If there is enough material, I can give it a try, and of course, the quality of the final product is subject to my limits. ”
The implication was already obvious, he hoped that Hua Qingyu would give him more materials to practice casting.
"Just with your skills?" Zhao Xianglin squinted at him, "We don't dare to take that risk if we 'test' all the materials of other people." ”
"Hey, this eldest sister, you misunderstood. The things that those people want to cast are all mortal things, and the materials are all medium and low grade, so how boring it is to cast! So what I was thinking about at that time was to explore a new casting method, and of course the probability of failure was very high. And the materials of the Eight Kings Ding are all rare things, in this case, I will not destroy the heavens. When this sister tells me the details of the material characteristics, formula ratio, and Dan furnace requirements of the set of Eight Kings Ding in the Nether Realm, I should be able to guess the specific ratio of the Eight Kings Ding in the Yuyu Realm. There is some truth in this man's words.
"This ...... Can it work?" Hua Qingyu was still skeptical.
"Try it, just try it, it's just some materials. Xiao Tianhe knew the importance of the Eight Kings Ding to the people of Hua Junmen, so he agreed to come down for Hua Qingyu.
The man exclaimed, "Great!
"Brother Tai, what's your name?" Xiao Tianhe asked.
"Fei in vain, 'wasted' 'wasted', 'vain' 'vain'......" The man was halfway through his speech, and found that the three of them were all staring at him with strange eyes, and he swallowed back the second half of the sentence in fright.
"You, don't you want to say that it's 'empty', right?" Zhao Xianglin couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Just for your unlucky name, who can safely hand over the materials to you?"
Hua Qingyu sighed and said the same thing again: "This...... Can it work?" But the difference is that the previous time it was doubtful, but this time it was helpless.
"Actually, I mean to say the 'emptiness' of the 'sky'......," the man said embarrassedly.
Xiao Tianhe laughed.
......
Diyang City, including the southwest town of the pivot region. The purpose of Xiao Tianhe and his party is here. As a big city, the market in the city is naturally bustling. Like many other large state cities, there is a square in the city dedicated to setting up stalls and opening shops.
From the moment he entered the city, Fei Tukong followed closely behind the three of them, cautiously looking around. In fact, the more cringed you are, the more suspicious you are in the eyes of others.
"What are you afraid of? Didn't I say that I would repay the materials for you?" Zhao Xianglin said.
"I'm not afraid of anyone else, I'm afraid of that old ghost!" Fei Tukong didn't forget to look around as he spoke, as if he was sneaky, "This is not a suburb, if you really encounter trouble, I'm afraid that your demon friend can't help it, so it's better to be careful." ”
"Such a big state city, where is it so coincidental to meet? Be generous but not attract people's attention. Xiao Tianhe persuaded, "Ah, we have arrived." ”
The plaza is divided into two parts, the south and the north, which are divided into two parts, the shop area and the stall area. Among them, the store area is for sellers who live here, and as long as they pay the monthly rent, they will always have a fixed store. The stall area is for passing merchants who occasionally need to sell their goods, and the rent is quite high, and it is calculated by the hour. The supply of goods in the store has been stable for a long time, and the people who set up the stalls will try to sell some rare things, so there are many people in both areas.
Since the purpose of Xiao Tianhe and his entourage was to purchase the materials needed for the Zhudan furnace, it should be more appropriate to go to the store area, but Fei Fukong kept leading everyone around the stall area.
"Are the things these merchants selling reliable?" Hua Qingyu frowned.
Fei Tukong comforted her: "It is true that there are unreliable, but I am an expert to test, you don't have to worry about it at all." ”
In order to gather the materials, a few people walked around the stall area for a long time, but who would carry so many casting materials to set up a stall? Zhao Xianglin couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you go to the shop area? Find a bigger store and estimate that you can buy it all at once." ”
"This ......" Fei Tukong's hesitant expression had already allowed the three of them to guess the answer.
"The 'old guy' you are talking about, shouldn't you just open a store in the store area?" Xiao Tianhe said.
"Well, that's right, so I don't really want to come to this Diyang City. Many shopkeepers in the store area have met the old ghost, and they will definitely report to me when they see me. Afraid that the three of them would be dissatisfied, Fei Tukong chased after him again, "I was arrested, but there will be no one to help you cast the Dan furnace." ”
Hua Qingyu said helplessly: "You said it earlier! Tell me what materials you need, I'll go to the store area to buy it, it's better than wandering around here!"
"Hey, yes, yes. Then bother you. Fei Tukong smiled sheepishly.
During Fei Tukong's conversation with Hua Qingyu, Zhao Xianglin walked up to Xiao Tianhe, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered, "Brother, look there." ”
Following what she pointed to, Xiao Tianhe saw a stall in the corner. The stall owner was sleeping on a broken bag, with a straw hat on his face, and he was napping leisurely with Erlang's legs crossed. His clothes were tattered and covered with all kinds of oil, and it seemed that the strange smell of his body could be smelled from afar. After looking at it for a while, Xiao Tianhe's gaze fell on the stall in front of the man. On the ground was a large piece of dirty gray cloth, on which lay a slate of stone.
"That's ......"
"It's the Burning Sky Slab!" Zhao Xianglin was very sure, "It won't be wrong, in the Rain God Temple, those three gangs robbed that thing." But I clearly witnessed Zhu Yuanlai hand over the slate to Marshal Bi!"
"Heh, interesting, maybe there is more than one piece of the Burning Sky Slate, right? Later, Zhu Yuanlai also said that Sister Chu has a rubbing of this thing, but I forgot to ask her. Let's go and see. Xiao Tianhe came to the slate, squatted down and looked at it carefully for a while, many lines of different shades and uneven thickness on the surface of the slate constituted a map, but he couldn't see where it was, and there was no text marking.
For the sake of safety, Xiao Tianhe still asked first: "Brother Tai, may I ask what this slate is?"
The man didn't even take off his straw hat, and replied lazily, "Since you don't know, you won't buy it." Let's go. ”
Zhao Xianglin pursed her lips: "How can there be such a business? Isn't it just a burning slate, what kind of bull is angry?"
"Oh?" said the man, who sat up and took off his straw hat with a look of dignity comparable to that of a beggar, "so you know what it is." Want to buy it?"
"How much?"
The man stretched out three fingers: "Thirty thousand beads." ”
"Thirty thousand? You might as well grab it! Besides, who knows if you're real or fake?" Zhao Xianglin said deliberately.
"Why, it's too expensive, how can it be too expensive to know it's a Burning Sky Slab?" the man was surprised.
"It's worthless, rubbing. Zhao Xianglin said.
"I've never rubbed it up, where did it come from?" the man was even more surprised, it didn't seem like he was pretending. It can be seen that this Burning Sky Slab has been in his hands for a long time, in other words, there should be more than one Burning Sky Slate.
"Okay, let's expand it once, ten thousand beads, no more. Xiao Tianhe's price still made Zhao Xianglin staggered, in the end, he was rich.
"Deal!" the man readily agreed. It is 10,000 beads at a time, and the slate itself is still left, which is a new way to make a fortune. He was already fantasizing about making a lot of money.
Zhao Xianglin added a condition: "You still have to tell us where you got this Burning Sky Slab from." ”
The man's face was embarrassed, and he seemed to be unable to speak: "This ......"
"If you don't say it, we don't want it. Zhao Xianglin turned around to leave.
The man hurriedly stayed: "Alas, don't go, my God of Wealth, I just tell you." This slate was dug up by me during a tomb robbery many years ago. I thought it was some kind of treasure map, so I didn't throw it away, until recently someone told me it was called the 'Burning Sky Slab', and it was worth some price, so I came here to set up a stall to try my luck. "He's honest, and he's got it all in one go.
Xiao Tianhe and Zhao Xianglin glanced at each other, and then asked, "Who is the person who told you?"
"I don't know. The man shook his head and said, "A few days ago I was resting in a nearby town and used this slate as a stool, and a man passing by told me that he suggested that I come here to sell it. By the way, he paid for me, he's such a good guy!"
