Volume 1 Dead Leaves Return to Dust Chapter 168 Barter
Although the fat Taoist priest was beaten not lightly, it was strange that he only worked in the blink of an eye, and when he left the boundary of Ding Ji's shop, his bruises and bruises disappeared.
From beginning to end, the yin and yang diagram behind the fat Taoist priest's old Taoist robe was not wrinkled at all, nor was it stained with dust.
Ye Ku followed behind the fat Taoist, this shameless Taoist priest looked left and right in this city, quite a kind of freedom like a fish in water, presumably it is often like this, familiar with the road, he couldn't help but think that this fat Taoist priest was born to do business, buy and sell, kill and make profits, instead of being a cultivator who peeks into the way of heaven.
Ordinary people have lost such a big face in public, I am afraid that they only want to leave this place quickly, and run as far as possible, but this fat Taoist priest is like a nobody, and he still stops at many stalls, as if he has taken a fancy to something, but every time he looks at it, he sighs and shakes his head and walks away, he has seen many things in a row, but he has not really bought one spirit stone.
At the right time, the sun was slightly falling, but there was no sign of the end of the market, and many sellers who set up stalls simply sat on the ground and meditated, and never thought about closing the stalls.
"You're too expensive to afford, can't afford it. ”
The fat Taoist priest put down a remnant weapon in his hand again, shook his head and stood up with a sigh, but suddenly there was an extra hand on his shoulder, he was shocked, turned his head to look, his pupils shrank, and quickly pushed Ye Ku to the side.
Ye Ku looked like he was smiling, and said softly: "The last meeting was too hurried, and we parted before I had time to ask for advice." ”
The fat Taoist priest felt awkward in his heart when he heard this, his brows were about to twist together, and finally he had to stretch it out, and said with a wry smile: "Shanye villager, where is there any road number, the little brother said and laughed." ”
This fat Taoist priest makes people feel mysterious, and such modest words always make people feel that something is wrong when they come out of his mouth.
Ye Ku had a smile on his face, and said: "It seems that the Taoist doesn't treat me as a friend, so I'll just ask casually, why does the Taoist refuse people thousands of miles away, is it possible that I can still become a prophecy in one word, and shouting the Taoist number can curse you to death?"
The fat Taoist priest smiled "hehe", nodded thoughtfully, and said: "The world is sinister, and the human heart is even more sinister, so we have to guard against it, we have to guard against it." He rolled his eyes, as if he thought of something, and said: "Of course, little brother, I can be trusted, I said my Tao number, little brother, you have to tell me your name." ”
It's ridiculous to say that for cultivators, many people have long forgotten who their original surname was because they have not been called all year round, but what they still remember is the name they broke out. This fat Taoist priest is a cultivator among cultivators, and it is fair to use the name of the Tao to exchange with Ye Kuer.
Ye Ku has never given himself any Dharma name and Tao number, the Tao is in people, and the Tao is in me, where do you need to borrow a title to show yourself, he knows the realm of "Words and Laws", but the realm of "Words and Laws" is true, this can spell people to live and die with a name alone, and it is too mystical to be involved in the number of lives.
"Ye Ku, have you ever heard of this name?"
"I've admired the name for a long time, I've admired the name for a long time. The poor road number has a virtuous son, you and my brother don't have to have any sons, old brother, my road number, have you ever heard of it?" The fat Taoist priest seemed to be close to Ye Kutao, and in the blink of an eye, he was called a brother.
Ye Ku looked strange, he looked up and down at the fat Taoist's somewhat "wide" body, and remembered what happened before, how could it be difficult to put the word "virtuous" on the person in front of him.
He didn't smile, but he didn't answer the words of a virtuous person, but said: "The Taoist is really ...... It's extraordinary. By the way, the virtuous Taoist said that he had admired my name for a long time, I don't know where you heard my name? I never leave my name for good deeds, and even if I am forced to spare my life, I will not allow them to leak it out, otherwise I will personally go and take their lives. They dare to take my words as a deaf ear, and I have to keep my promise. ”
"Uh, this, this...... I don't remember exactly, but I must have heard it somewhere, it seems to be over there in the Western Regions?" There are virtuous people who are struggling, and his skin is thick enough, so he can collapse a domain at once and go to the Western Regions of Guxia.
Ye Ku knew that he was talking nonsense, and he didn't want to ask anything to come out, the key to finding this fat Taoist priest was still on the Jianshui Spirit Grass.
This virtuous person will go to Ding Ji and be beaten in vain, he doesn't believe anything, take a step back, just by virtue of the ability to escape after robbing the Xu Kejia heirloom scroll in the town, he will definitely not suffer such a big loss at the hands of Ding Ji. Na Ding Ji is the largest shop in this city, and Ye Ku is not sure that this virtuous person can really get this flavor of spiritual grass.
"I see that the Taoist chief had some misunderstanding with those people in Ding Ji's shop just now, I don't know why, could it be that my hands are itching again, and I was caught?" Some virtuous people call Ye Ku a brother, but Ye Ku does not recognize him as a "brother".
The fat Taoist priest said with a straight face: "How is it possible?!" Little Brother Ye, what kind of person did I think of my brother?"
Ye Ku said with a smile: "I don't go around in circles anymore, I want a water spirit grass, but I didn't know that I was preempted by someone, so I had to go home empty-handed." ”
"That person is really not a good thing, even the little brother you fancy the things you have to rob. "There are virtuous people who look like they have the same hatred and hatred, and they are unhappy for Ye Ku.
"Dao Chief, look, how much of this medicine do you have, can you sell it to my junior brother?"
Youde Daoist glanced at Ye Ku obliquely, and saw that he was sincere, and he really made up his mind to "buy and sell", "Don't hide it from you, brother, yesterday I dreamed that someone came to me to ask for this water spirit grass, and I didn't have this thing in my hand in the dream, no, I knew that this dream would not find me for no reason." ”
Saying that, the virtuous Taoist actually took out a Jianshui Spirit Grass, looking at its color year, it is much older and much better than the one Ye Ku saw in Ding Ji, "You made a special trip to find me, I will make a special trip to get it for you, how about it, this brother you called is really not wronged." ”
Ye Ku saw that he really took out a spirit grass, and his heart was suddenly surprised, and he also knew that the statement that this brother is not a brother is false, and asked directly: "How can the Taoist master be willing to cut his love?"
This time is different from last time, the two are trading on an equal footing, and Ye Ku doesn't make any sense, so naturally it is impossible to force a virtuous Taoist to redeem himself with a Taoist card like last time.
"It's too vulgar to talk about spirit stones, barter, what do you think, brother?" When it comes to business and transactions, Youde Daoist suddenly changed his expression, and his eyes seemed to be shining.
For some reason, Ye Ku always felt fooled, and there was a feeling that he had sent it to the door to let this virtuous Taoist slaughter, "Does the Taoist want to exchange that Dao card back?"
Unexpectedly, the virtuous Taoist shook his head, "This water spirit grass is not worth half a fraction of my card, how can my brother's brother make my brother suffer?" He looked like he was all thinking about Ye Withering.
Ye Ku only felt that this virtuous Taoist was showing off, and the implication was nothing more than to ask for something else to exchange, and not to want the currency of the spirit stone, Ye Ku thought about it, and thought: "All the things on my body are nothing more than Xuanyin, copper, and sword tips, it stands to reason that this fat Taoist priest can't know what it is, why is he so sure that he recognizes what I can take out in exchange?"
"What does the Taoist want? I'm just a poor boy with no longevity. Ye Ku said tentatively.
Youde Daoist smiled, there was a weird meaning in this smile, "As long as you can change this grass, you can do it, like any antiques, remnants, that is the hobby of the poor Dao." ”
The speaker may not be intentional, but the listener will inevitably have a heart, Ye Ku thought to himself: "Xuanyin has been refined by me, and the copper has ancient Dao patterns, but it has not yet shown anything extraordinary, and its value should be above the tip of the sword." ”
This section of the tip of the sword has been completely silent since it broke through the mist in Tuba Village, Ye Ku thought that it had the effect of restraining those evil things, and when he left, he also put the tip of the sword close to Xun Mei's wound, but unlike when he was in Beimu, this time there was nothing strange about the tip of the sword, and the rust on it did not react to the yin fire on Xun Mei's wound.
Ye Ku thought for a while, took out the tip of the sword, and said, "Since you like antiquities, then I will exchange this thing with you for the water spirit grass, how about the Taoist chief?"
Youde Daoren's face was suspicious, and he stretched out his hand to touch the tip of the sword, but Ye Ku took the first step to put it away, "Brother, you have to let me see clearly, is this thing worth the price?"
"This sword tip is worth at least fifteen hundred spirit stones, and it can be said that it is more than enough to exchange this Jianshui Spirit Grass with the Dao Master. Ye Ku didn't say anything nonsense, but it wasn't him who paid the money, after all, Gu Jun seemed to have really auctioned it at this price.
At that time, Ye Ku didn't have any concept of this spirit stone, but now that he thinks about it, Akabane Shenghua spent 50,000 spirit stones to photograph that pair of fox girls, but he really didn't love the beauty of the country.
In fact, there are virtuous people who also looked at it, pondered for a moment, and said: "Okay, since you said that it is worth 1,500 spirit stones, then it is worth this number, and the water spirit grass is here, you take it." ”
Ye Ku smiled and handed over the tip of the sword.
"By the way, Poor Dao will send you another piece of news to your brother, as you said just now, the people who bought the Jianshui Spirit Grass before you took the lead are probably people in the army, but it has not been very peaceful recently, there are Gu Xia soldiers who were injured by the demon clan, and those generals and adults in Beining and the three sub-cities are very busy. ”
As he spoke, the virtuous Taoist took out a corner of tattered yellow cloth, like silk instead of silk, like brocade but not brocade, and wrapped the tip of the sword, and when he said this, he looked like he had nothing to do with himself, as if he was not from the ancient Xia country.
Ye Ku had learned from Zhu Quan's mouth about the recent appearance of the demon clan in the city, but he didn't expect that the demon clan would be so bold that he would dare to clash with the army.
"Thank you, Chief, for telling me. ”
Ye Wei put away the water spirit grass, and when he looked down, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the tattered yellow cloth in that corner, for no reason, his heart was suddenly shocked, and he didn't know where the evil qi that was dormant had an instant awakening.
Ye Ku's face was silent, and he said, "Why did the Dao Chief use this rotten cloth to wrap the tip of my sword worth more than a thousand spirit stones, and he was not afraid that this cloth would be broken after a while, and he would be poked out of a hole?"
The virtuous Taoist put away the tip of the sword wrapped in yellow cloth, and said triumphantly: "Don't be afraid, there is no stronger cloth than this in the whole world, not to mention the tip of your sword, brother, even if you take the Xuanyang hanging on the top of the emperor's palace in Shangguo, it is impossible to pierce the yellow cloth of the poor road." ”
