Volume 1 Entering the Sect Chapter 67 Master Leper
The fact that the Xu family was burned to ashes became a topic of conversation among the monks after dinner.
There have been many versions of the news about this, and each version says something with a nose and an eye.
Some people say that the Xu family offended the monks in the later stage of foundation building, and the entire family was blocked in the courtyard of the house and burned to death.
Some people also said that the Lin family and the Han family wanted to occupy the entire Fang City, and the two families joined forces to block all the clansmen of the Xu family in the courtyard of the house and set fire to all of them. The Xu family, who were desperate in the fire, also took revenge on the Lin family and the Han family, so they destroyed the ground fire in their home. and said that the decline of the Shen family was also behind these two families, and so on.
After Cangyue sent a monk to inspect the matter, he characterized the matter as "the Xu family was kidnapped". And this should have been the most reliable and important news, but instead drowned in a lot of gossip.
Although the fire of the Xu family and the extinguishing of the fire in the interior of Fang City have happened for several days, there are still many monks who come from other places every day to buy magic weapons or plan to rent a refiner and alchemy room by themselves.
The Xu family suddenly had an accident, and the Xu family's shop selling magic weapons was naturally closed. In order not to make a trip in vain, the monks who came to this market to buy ritual artifacts had to focus on other shops and stalls selling ritual artifacts in the market.
The business of other shops and stalls selling magic weapons in Fang City instantly became quite popular, and even Xiao An was stained with a lot of light, and within a few days, the magic weapons that had been refining in the past three months were sold out.
And some of the casual cultivators who brought their own materials to refine were naturally disappointed, and some of them directly set up stalls in the market to sell the refining materials they had collected. Xiao An also scraped together a few materials for refining swords from these loose cultivators, and planned to refine some more difficult swords and swords.
This fang city is supported by renting out alchemy rooms, refining rooms and selling pills and magic weapons, and now only one pill remains. More than half of the monks who came to this city came with excitement and returned with failure. A wave of anger gradually gathered in the market, and when Xiao An left the market, there had already been fights in the market.
A month later, Xiao An came to Qishifang City again after refining the magic weapon, and to Xiao An's surprise, the Fang City had returned to its former prosperity.
It turned out that the Han and Lin families took timely measures, not only quickly inviting the array mages of the Cangyue faction to come here to repair the earth fire, but also launching a batch of high-quality pills at a low price, which could be regarded as making up for the losses of these monks in disguise.
Xiao An came early today, and set up a small stall in the most lively area, and the diagonal opposite of the stall is the refining room rented out in the market. Today, Xiao An carried fewer magic weapons, only a blue-veined sword and a thin knife, both of which were magic weapons that had just been refined last month.
At this time, it was still early, and the door of the rented refining room had not yet begun, and a sloppyly dressed monk was standing outside the door of the refining room and waiting.
When Xiao Andang's stall was set up, the sloppyly dressed monk saw these two magic weapons, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes. Maybe this person was a little bored waiting, and walked straight to Xiao An's stall.
The sloppy monk picked up the thin knife with a big grin, looked at it carefully in his hand, and a look of envy flashed in his eyes, but he said: "This knife is so-so, and it can catch up with half the craftsmanship of my apprenticeship." ”
The scruffy monk also tried to put on a "I am a master" appearance, and secretly observed Xiao An's reaction with the corner of his eye.
It's just that this "master" squatting on the ground looks like a big horse monkey alive, and the image of a full "copycat master" is far from the master in Xiao Anxin.
Seeing Xiao An's appearance of "having eyes and not knowing gold and jade", this "master" was annoyed all of a sudden, like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail.
"Your instrument knife refining is too failed, you see that the handle of this knife is too straight, the tip of the knife is too flat, and the curvature of the blade does not match. If you look at this scabbard again, it doesn't even have a nice decoration, it's ugly to death. Also, what kind of rotten skin is this scabbard made of!"
The "master" put the thin knife back into the stall heavily, first let out a cold snort from his nostrils, and then pointed at the thin knife and said loudly.
After speaking, the "master" snorted coldly again, staring at Xiao An with his eyes, wanting to see Xiao An's embarrassment. Seeing the surprised look on Xiao An's face, the master felt as if he had eaten a ginseng fruit, and felt that every sweat pore on his body became extremely comfortable.
"Hello, this is a horizontal knife, and this scabbard is made of python skin that is close to the late stage of the induction. Xiao An said embarrassedly.
The "master's face" turned red, and he flicked his sleeves and walked towards the door of the refining room.
As soon as the sloppy monk returned to the door of the refining room, several monks came from the side, and the one at the front was a burly strong man.
"Master Leprosy, you came early, you won't fail in refining magic weapons this time, right?" asked the burly strong man who walked in front with a concerned expression.
"Brother Wang, junior brother, I will definitely succeed this time. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a surprise this time! I have processed the materials in advance, and I can refine them before dusk. When the sloppy monk saw the other party, he instantly nodded his head and bowed, and trotted to the burly man, where was the arrogance just now!
Looking at the changes in this monk, Xiao An couldn't laugh or cry, this is really a wonderful monk.
At dusk, Xiao An was reading a book about refining weapons with relish in his hand, when a sudden muffled sound startled Xiao An. Looking up, I saw a puff of black smoke floating out of the refining room opposite.
After a while, the monk in charge of the refining room pushed out a man covered in darkness. The clothes on this person's body have been "full of holes", and the person's body is evenly stained with a layer of carbon black.
"Brother Deacon, just let me go back and continue refining magic weapons, I promise that there will never be another fryer. The dark-covered monk spoke to the deacon, who was only white in his teeth and the whites of his eyes, and looked particularly funny, the same "master" who had been chattering at Xiao An's stall in the morning.
"Go, go, go! You guy has been here three times a month, and every three times there has been a fryer, and the ghost will believe you!"
The fryer generally refers to the fact that when the monk is processing materials in the refining furnace, the materials collapse in the refining furnace due to problems in the material processing, which can lead to the destruction of the materials in the furnace at least and damage to the refining furnace.
Although the Ding Furnace in this refining room is the cheapest and lowest-grade kind, it is also worth thousands of spirit stones, and if it is really damaged, ordinary casual cultivation really can't afford to pay for it.
After being pushed out by the deacon, the humanoid black charcoal stood in place with a blank expression. After a while, the person shook his head and suddenly ran towards Xiao An.
Seeing this person running towards him startled Xiao An.
This person came to Xiao An in a hurry, and the first thing he said was: "Little brother, has the knife in your stall been sold?"
The tone was extremely anxious, and when he saw that the horizontal knife was still on the stall, the person was visibly relieved.
Immediately, the man reached out and took out a cloth bag wrapped in layers from his arms, opened it and held it up in front of Xiao An, "Little brother, do you know what 'Brake Steel' is? Let me tell you, this piece of Brake Steel is worth much more than your broken knife! How about I exchange this piece of Brake Steel for this horizontal knife weapon of yours?"
"Steel?" The man's cloth pocket had been opened, and there was a black piece of iron, only the size of a peanut. When Xiao An saw the item in this person's hand, he knew that it was indeed Shagang.
Xiao An took out a pair of gloves made of wolf skin from the storage bag, picked up this small piece of steel and examined it carefully. When Xiao An input spiritual power from it, a trace of evil qi overflowed from it, and when Xiao An no longer injected spiritual power into it, this trace of evil energy was submerged into the evil steel.
Speaking from the heart, steel is a rare refining material, which can greatly enhance the power of knives and swords. The price of this thing is indeed not cheap, but it is a pity that the size of the steel in this person's hand is too small, and at most it is added to the dagger.
The price of this small piece is slightly lower than the horizontal knife on Xiao An's stall, but this item is rarely seen locally, and Xiao An can just use it to practice.
"Yes!" Xiao An thought for a moment and decided to agree to the other party's deal.
"Although my piece of steel is a little smaller, it is of good quality, you should build some more spirit stones. After seeing Xiao An's agreement, the other party put up a shelf.
"Master Leper, is that you?" Before Xiao An could speak, a loud roar came from a distance, and it was the strong man group in the morning.
