Chapter 72: The Young Woman and the Child
Could it be that the woman looked young, but was actually an old woman who was 100 years old!
Liu Ming shook his head in his heart, put this thought behind him, and accompanied by the old man, he entered an elegantly furnished hut on the second floor, and immediately a pretty woman came up and served a cup of fragrant tea.
Then the old man left the house first, and went to find the proprietor whom he had spoken.
After a short while, after the sound of footsteps outside the house, a middle-aged woman in a long purple dress walked in under the guidance of the old man.
This woman's face looks ordinary, but after a few more glances, it gives people a sense of extraordinary grace.
The old man introduced at this time:
"Fellow Daoist, this is Mrs. Yu, the proprietor of Benzhai. This fellow Daoist is the owner of the demon bones I mentioned earlier. ”
"Lady Jade"
Liu Ming stood up and bowed slightly.
"Daoist friends don't have to be polite, the concubine is just a spirit disciple. I don't know if Daoyou can take out those spirit bones and let the concubine take a look at them again. After returning the salute, Mrs. Yu said with a smile on her face.
"Of course that's fine. ”
When Liu Ming heard this, he immediately took out the wooden box from his sleeve and put it on the table.
Madame Jade stepped forward, flapped the lid open, and used her slender fingers to pinch out a grain of white bone slag from it.
The woman looked cautious, and her expression was extremely focused, as if she was holding not an inconspicuous bone residue, but a rare treasure that was difficult to find in the world.
After looking at it for a while, the woman raised her hand and pulled out a hairpin-like thing from her bun and touched the bone residue in her hand with the pointed part.
The unthinkable happened.
The wooden hairpin, which originally looked pale yellow, changed its color in a moment and turned into a dark blue color.
"Sure enough, it's really the demon bone of a demon beast in the late stage of condensation. Although there are a few less, it is barely enough to refine a small spiritual weapon. The woman finally said with a smile on her face.
"Spirit weapon!" Liu Ming's heart moved when he heard this.
"Yes, the reason why spiritual weapons are scarce is of course because they are not easy to refine and the success rate is too low, but it is more because the spiritual weapon materials are too scarce. The demon bones of these late-stage condensation demon beasts happen to be one of the most suitable main materials for refining spiritual weapons. Of course, in the refining process, other auxiliary materials must be added, which is also very valuable. The woman reluctantly put the bone residue back in her hand in the box, and explained in her mouth.
"I see. Liu Ming was a little stunned when he heard this, but he had a lot of good feelings for this Jade Lady in his heart.
Not to mention anything else, just because the other party did not hide the use of these demon bones, and frankly explained the rarity of these things, it can be seen that Baizhenzhai's good reputation is really not boasting.
"I heard Elder Wang say that Daoyou didn't intend to sell these things directly, but seemed to be planning to talk about other business with Honsai, but did you have such a thing?"
"Liu does have this plan. But before that, I want to ask Madam first, if this box of demon bones is sold directly, I don't know how many spirit stones Gui Zhai is willing to produce. Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and he asked slowly.
"The price of an ordinary spirit weapon is probably between tens of thousands and 100,000 spirit stones, but considering that once the refining fails, the materials will be spiritually lost and can no longer be used, but the cost of hiring a high-level refiner and other auxiliary materials will be deducted, and Honsai also needs to earn a sum of spirit stones from it. Therefore, the main material of the spiritual weapon, Benzhai is generally bid at about 5,000 spirit stones. However, considering that these demon bones of Daoyou are left by the Dacheng demon beasts in the late stage of condensation, there is a certain chance that high-level and high-grade weapons will be refined, so Benzhai can give another two thousand, a total of seven thousand spirit stones to buy this box of demon bones. What do you think of this price" Mrs. Yu thought about it for a while, and then said seriously word by word.
"Seven thousand spirit stones, it is indeed a relatively reasonable price. Liu Ming nodded, but the palm of his hand shrunk in his sleeve couldn't help but touch a small wooden box the size of another finger, and his face showed a thoughtful look.
Seeing this, although Mrs. Yu had a trace of doubt in her heart, she still smiled and did not urge anything.
"Most of this box of things, I plan to exchange them for some mana pills, and the name and quantity are on it. As for the remaining spirit stones, I also plan to purchase some talismans and some medicinal materials for alchemy. After thinking about the sentence, Liu Ming finally did not take out the small wooden box in his sleeve, but took out another note from his body and handed it over.
These things are all things that he wrote a long time ago.
"The pills are all of low quality, so there is naturally no problem in terms of quantity. As for the alchemy materials and talismans, I will go back and ask people to take the catalog and price, and the Taoist friends can choose them. Madame Yu read the words on the note for a while, and then agreed.
Then the woman gave an order, and the old man immediately took the note and walked out of the house.
A moment later, the pretty maid who served tea walked in, still holding a thick catalogue in her hand.
"It's a good look at the Taoist friends, most of the things sold in Honsai are in it, and maybe there are other things that the Taoist friends are interested in. By the way, the concubine still doesn't know the name of Lu Daoyou, can you tell me. Madame Yu took the catalogue and asked kindly.
"Under the surname Liu, it's not easy to tell the full name directly. Liu Ming took the catalog and said lightly.
"It turned out to be Liu Daoyou. Madame Yu smiled slightly, as if she didn't care that Liu Ming didn't tell her full name.
Liu Ming had already flipped through the catalogue in his hand quickly, and kept the things he liked firmly in his heart.
After a while, Wang Lao walked in again, but there were more than a dozen porcelain vases of different sizes in his hand, and they all placed them on the table next to Liu Ming.
Seeing this, Liu Ming put down the catalog in his hand with a flash of eyes, and began to check these porcelain bottles one by one.
After a while, he nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the old man:
"In addition to these pills, I also need five catties of deer herbs, three catties of red scale flowers, half a catty of bezoar powder, three bottles of Ganlin liquid, and one bottle of red **...... , as for the spirit runes, you need two magic talismans, two spirit cover talismans, and three rejuvenation talismans...... Okay, that's all. As for the remaining hundreds of spirit stones, just give them to me directly. Liu Mingfei quickly reported some alchemy materials and some talisman names.
After listening to this, Elder Wang glanced at Madam Yu, the proprietor.
Madame Jade nodded with a smile.
So Wang Lao agreed and exited the house again.
"Liu Daoyou, since you have purchased so many things, I'm afraid it's not easy to carry them around. Have you ever thought about buying a storage talisman!" Madam Jade thought about it for a while, and suddenly said to Liu Ming.
"Isn't it true that the storage talisman can only be used after becoming a spirit master, and this little thing needs to be used with this kind of talisman, which is really a bit of a waste. When Liu Ming heard this, he replied with a slight startle.
"Ordinary storage charms, naturally, will not work. However, a few days ago, Honzhai obtained a few new storage talismans that had failed to refine and semi-failed, although they could only be used once, and the capacity was not large, and they could not reduce the weight of the things that were loaded into them, but with the mid-stage cultivation of Daoyou's spiritual disciples, they could barely be used. Madame Jade said with a chuckle.
After Liu Ming heard this, his expression moved slightly.
......
Half an hour later, when Liu Ming walked out of Bai Zhenzhai again, he was still empty-handed.
After he came out this time, he didn't return to the inn where he was staying, but went directly to one of the most famous refining shops in the market, and stayed there for two hours before he walked out with a smile on his face.
At this time, most of the stones left on his body and another slender wooden box left in his sleeve were gone.
Subsequently, Liu Ming went directly back to the inn where he stayed last night, and never left again.
When the three-day date came, he reappeared outside the valley and ran away to the appointed place a few miles away.
Over there, most of the disciples of the Barbarian Ghost Sect were already waiting there.
Many people were talking excitedly about what they had seen and learned in the market, but there was no Lei Zhen and Concubine Ouyang.
After waiting a little longer, someone came in the distance.
Liu Ming looked down lightly, but found that the other party was not Senior Sister Qian, but a very plump bewitching young woman, and there was a thin boy who seemed to be no more than seven or eight years old.
This woman was dressed in a pink shirt, **, and when she walked, every move she made had a thrilling sense of hooking her soul, which made many male disciples of the Barbarian Ghost Sect look at it with their eyes straight.
When the woman saw that there were so many people in front of her, she seemed to be slightly startled, and immediately led the boy in other directions.
But when she walked away more than a dozen feet, the boy suddenly howled and cried out without knowing what he wanted.
The young woman immediately leaned down to comfort her, but the boy paid no heed, and the woman seemed to be very anxious, and struck the boy twice.
But the boy cried more and more.
And at this moment, Senior Sister Qian and the green-shirted girl slowly walked from the direction of the valley.
"Senior Brother Lei and Senior Sister Ouyang met Uncle Zhang and had some creation, so they want to stay here for a while longer and don't go back with us. After Senior Sister Qian glanced at the young woman and the boy, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and she said lightly.
When the other disciples heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other.
At this time, Senior Sister Qian had already instructed the green-shirted girl to take out the scroll and cast the spell again.
After a while, when the pale yellow giant boat condensed in the air, the disciples of the Barbarian Ghost Sect naturally flew up one after another.
After a roar, the light shield emerged, and the fog boat flew away in the direction of the Barbarian Ghost Sect with everyone.
At this time, the boy who was crying suddenly stopped his voice, and raised his head to the back of the fog boat in the distance, and glanced coldly.
"Sure enough, they are just some little guys in the spirit apprenticeship, and they don't even have a spirit master. Looks like we can do a big deal. Seeing this, the young woman in the pink shirt didn't feel strange at all, but giggled and said charmingly.
