Chapter 36: The Secret of the Southern Gods
Early in the morning of the second day, Linfeng came to the city gate according to yesterday's agreement, but saw that Xue Pintian was already waiting here, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I'm really sorry, the little brother was not strong enough to drink last night, and he got up late. ”
"Hey!!Between you and my brothers, why bother to see each other like this, drinking is to have fun, to get drunk, anyway, the Loose Cultivation Fair is also going to be held for a few days, and it is not for a while, since Brother Yue has arrived, let's go!" Xue Pintian smiled, obviously not caring about these details.
So the two of them immediately went out of the city gate, released the flying sword and rushed to the suburbs, and after flying for less than a quarter of an hour, Linfeng landed in front of a valley under the leadership of Xue Pintian, and then walked a little way inside, and came to a place like a mortal bazaar.
A large area of the field had been leveled and divided into several small areas, each of which was divided into several small roads, and on both sides of the road were many small stalls, and next to each of them stood a monk, old and young, male and female.
Apparently these people were selling their belongings in exchange for what they needed, and the road was filled with monks who stopped and went, sometimes picking up an item to look at, and sometimes chatting with the stall owner.
Lin Feng saw that in addition to these monks who came to trade goods, there were also many monks in black power suits standing around the entire venue, and they were all constantly watching everything in the market, obviously these people were the organizers' people to maintain order.
"Brother Yue, let's go, let's go and take a look at them all first, and then choose whether to buy it or not. Xue Pintian took care of Linfeng and went over to take a look, and passed on some of his own experience.
After the two entered, they acted separately, Lin Feng looked at the things fiddling with these stalls around him, and did not ask easily, he had not found what he needed, after walking around like this, Lin Feng finally stopped in front of a short old man's stall, and asked with a sword: "Dare to ask Daoyou, why do you have so many swords here, I think they are just ordinary swords, and there is nothing peculiar?"
"It seems that Daoyou don't know something, of course, there is nothing peculiar about these swords alone, but these eight swords are not simple together, and with the sword law, they can be combined into a sword formation, called "Bafang Sword Formation", which is most suitable for defense and offense. The short old man smiled and introduced to Linfeng.
"Oh, I see, I don't know how this sword array is traded?" Lin Feng was more interested in this, his current means of dealing with the enemy were too simple, only the Qingyang Jue and Wenxin Sword Technique could be used, although the Underworld Sword was an artifact, but he could not fully grasp it, nor could he use its Netherworld power. If you can have another set of sword formations, you won't be overstretched when you fight the enemy in the future.
"Is this? The reason why Xiao Lao Dao took out this set of sword formations was to exchange it for a set of exercises for the God Control Realm? I don't know if you have it?" "The old Dao is now at the realm of the eighth layer of blood fusion, and it will not be too far from breaking through to the God Control Realm, so he wants to prepare the cultivation exercises required by the God Control Realm in advance.
This is the biggest difference between casual cultivation and people in the sect, the disciples in the sect, as long as they enter the sect, they will have the guidance of a famous teacher, and there will also be a set of exercises that go straight to the high realm, which is also the foundation of a sect.
For example, the Qingyang Recipe of the Qingyang Sect of the Linfeng Master Sect, which can be cultivated to the highest level that can be achieved in the world today, which is also the reason why the Qingyang Sect can be ranked among the first-class major sects in the world.
And the remaining sects that have not been ranked are because they do not have a set of exercises that can reach the highest level, and therefore the most taboo thing for the big factions in the world is that someone secretly learns their own exercises. Even the disciples in the sect must make a heavenly oath when they practice the exercises, and they must not be leaked.
"This cultivation method, there is no such thing as a practice, I don't know if it can be traded with other things, can the spirit stone be traded?" Of course, Linfeng has a cultivation method, isn't Qingyang Jue it, but it is a sect's exercise, and he can't trade it.
"Spirit stones, I don't know how many spirit stones you have?" The old man is obviously very interested in spirit stones, after all, in the cultivation world, spirit stones are hard currency, unless there are too many spirit stones at home to fit, no one will easily take out spirit stones to trade, because as long as there are enough spirit stones, you can find a place to cultivate all the time, as long as the strength is raised, what do you want in the future?
"There are not many in the lower realm, what the Taoist friends know, spirit stones are rare in today's cultivation world, and there are naturally not many scattered cultivators like me!" There are still a lot of spirit stones on Linfeng's body, there are more than two hundred, all of which were obtained from the predecessors of the fallen gods before, and some were given to the master and Linxin, and now there are only more than two hundred left.
"If Daoist friends really want it sincerely, Xiao Lao Dao can be cheaper, ten spirit stones, no less!" Old Dao estimated that it was not easy to trade higher realm exercises with his own set of sword formations, so after knowing that there were spirit stones in the wind, he turned his attention to spirit stones, and with spirit stones, it would be smoother when he broke through the God Control Realm in the future.
In the case that there are not many spirit stones, most of the casual cultivation will only use spirit stones when breaking through the big realm in order to ensure the sufficiency of the spiritual energy, and even monks with more spirit stones like Linfeng are reluctant to use spirit stones in their usual cultivation, and they are only used at the juncture of breakthroughs in the small realm and the big realm.
"Ten yuan? It's too expensive, and with the twenty percent commission of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, that's twelve yuan! "Of course, twelve spirit stones are not much for Linfeng, and he is willing to pay this price, but Linfeng can't be too refreshing, it will make people feel that Linfeng has a lot of spirit stones on his body, and it is easy to be targeted, and Linfeng doesn't want to be chased and robbed as soon as he gets out of the fair."
"Okay then! Daoist friends can come over again after thinking about it, but it is still necessary as soon as possible, if someone offers the right price, the little old Dao will not wait for Daoyou!" Old Dao obviously did not intend to let go easily.
Linfeng no longer cares about the old man, turns around and leaves, he can't be too persistent, otherwise it will be easy to be slaughtered.
Linfeng was strolling all the way again, and it was about to finish shopping, at this time, Linfeng was attracted by a booklet that said "Fengyunbu", and immediately Linfeng stopped and asked: "This fellow Taoist, may I ask what is the method of this Fengyunbu?"
"This Fengyun step is a kind of movement method, you can quickly move your body to avoid the enemy's attack, just imagine, this wind and clouds have footsteps? Can you capture the trajectory of this wind and cloud movement? The so-called Fengyun step is like a wind and clouds that cannot be captured and cannot be traced!" This stall owner is a young man, and it seems that he should be about the same size as Linfeng, and as soon as he heard that Linfeng came to ask, he immediately told the story.
"Oh......!!! There is such a way to live, I don't know what price your friend wants?" Linfeng listened to the stall owner, but his interest instantly increased.
"Fellow Daoist only needs to take out five spirit stones, or something worth five spirit stones, and you can take this Fengyun Step with you!" the young man offered a price.
"Can there be a negotiation on this price, I am very interested in this Fengyun step, I hope that Daoyou can make a step at the price!" In fact, Linfeng has already decided to buy this Fengyun step, but he still hopes to push the price down.
"This fellow Daoist, I also came out to sell it sincerely, these five spirit stones are already the final price, it really can't be lower, and this Fengyun step is very extraordinary, and it is also very beneficial to the enemy in the future, not to mention being able to defeat the enemy, at least the enemy can not easily defeat you, and the worst is also a good means to escape. Do you say?" the stall owner seemed to be in a hurry to trade this Fengyun step, so he didn't intend to let go of Linfeng easily.
Lin Feng obviously also saw that the young stall owner wanted to trade Fengyun in a hurry. So Lin Feng immediately said: "This price is still a little too high, although I am interested in this Fengyun step, but I can't take out so many spirit stones for a while, forget it!"
"Hey!!Don't be in a hurry to leave, let's discuss it again!" The stall owner saw that Linfeng was so decisive, and immediately stepped forward and said.
"Three spirit stones, I can only produce so much!"
"No, no, no! Daoyou is too dark, you have to give me some way to live!
"I can't take out four and a half pieces, three and a half pieces!"
........................
In the end, after some bargaining, the two finally traded at the price of four spirit stones, and Linfeng collected Fengyun and left happily, while the stall owner had a bitter face in the back, and he didn't know if it was pretended.
After the transaction, Lin Feng did not go to the stall selling the Bafang Sword Formation again, he did not plan to trade today, he decided to wait for a night, boil the short old man, and decide whether to trade or not tomorrow depending on the situation.
Linfeng found Xue Pintian who was bargaining with people in front of a stall, and asked about the situation after Linfeng arrived, it turned out that Xue Pintian had a high school decision, but the stall price was too high, and the two sides bargained all the way, Xue Pintian couldn't afford the price in the end, and was in a stalemate with the stall owner.
"Eight spirit stones, can't be missing, if the Taoist friend still thinks the price is high, he can't accompany him, Taoist friend, please take care of yourself!" The stall owner has obviously lost his patience.
"This fellow Daoist really wants it sincerely, but he can only produce seven spirit stones, Daoist friend will give it a convenience!" Xue Pintian didn't want to give up easily, Lin Feng saw it from the side, this law decision was very important to him.
"Eight yuan is eight yuan, Brother Xue, the little brother who is not enough will lend it to you for the time being, it is not early now, let's go back to the inn to rest after this transaction." Linfeng looked uncomfortable on the side, so he took the initiative to help.
"How embarrassing this is, it's just that this set of laws is very important to the elder brother, the elder brother's help today, the elder brother has written it down, thank you brother!" Xue Pintian took the spirit stone handed by Linfeng after being polite. The deal was completed quickly.
The two rushed all the way back to the capital, drank some wine together, and then went back to the inn to rest.
As soon as Linfeng returned to the inn, he impatiently took out Fengyunbu and studied it carefully, and then began to practice in the room, only to see Linfeng move around the room like a phantom, and the speed of flashing became faster and faster with the passage of time, until it became invisible to the naked eye, like a wind that kept blowing in the room.
After a few hours, Linfeng stopped, and praised excitedly: "Fengyun step, it is really like the wind, there is no trace, with this body, you can be at ease when you encounter a strong enemy in the future, at least you can escape." This is okay, if you can improve it, it may become a world-famous supernatural power, and I will study it again when I have time in the future!"
On the second day, Linfeng, who had only rested for a few hours, came to the Loose Cultivation Fair with Xue Pintian, and after a casual stroll, Linfeng came to the old man's stall slowly, and walked gently in front of him inadvertently. The old man recognized Lin Feng and hurriedly said, "Daoist friend go slowly, I don't know if you want to see this eight-sided sword formation again today?"
Lin Feng turned around and said impatiently: "Hey, the price of Daoist friends is too expensive, I really can't afford it, I'd better go to other places to have a look!"
"Hey!!Fellow Daoist is wrong, the price is negotiable. The old man also saw that the Taoist friend may not have much money, so in order to reduce the pressure of the Taoist friend, the old man decided to look at the Taoist friend's persistence and sincerity, and decided to take the initiative to reduce the price of a spirit stone, and the Taoist friend only needs to produce nine spirit stones to take away the eight-sided sword array! The old man is so sincere to the Taoist friend, but the Taoist friend can't live up to the old man's deep affection!
Affectionate? Your sister's affection! I'm a big man who needs your affection from a bad old man, isn't this disgusting? Lin Feng was speechless in his heart.
"Nine pieces, I still have to think about it, I don't have many spirit stones in my hand, if they are all used up here, won't there be no spirit stones when I break through the realm in the future, it's too unsafe!" Lin Feng was already very satisfied with this price, but he still decided to try to cut it a little lower.
"Hey!!Daoist friends are too much, this is already the price of jumping, and if it goes down, the old man will have to close the stall and go home, there is no way to do this business, and Daoyou think about it carefully, with this eight-sided sword array, the chances of going out against the enemy in the future are much greater, and when the enemy is defeated, what do you want, just grab them directly!" This old Taoist priest has already begun to brainwash Linfeng.
Lin Feng listened to the words of the old Taoist priest but looked at him with a peculiar face, this old Taoist priest estimated that he did not do half of the robbery, but what the old Taoist priest said is still reasonable, in the future, he should also go out to fight with people more, if he wins, he will rob, and if he can't escape, anyway, he has a stormy step, and it should not be difficult to escape.
Having made up his mind in his heart, Lin Feng said to the old Taoist priest with a reluctant face: "Okay, for the sake of Daoist friends who are so sincere, I will ask for this set of eight-sided sword formations below!"
"Okay, good!!Daoyou is really a real hero, his eyes are like torches!Then ask Daoyou to take out the spirit stone and trade it now!" Seeing Linfeng's reluctance, the old Daoist was afraid that he would regret it, and wanted to complete the transaction immediately.
Linfeng did not delay, immediately took out nine spirit stones, the two sides paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and after setting up the note, Linfeng walked away.
Lin Feng, who had put away the sword array, did not find any items suitable for his needs for the time being, and Xue Pintian was still shopping, and Lin Feng didn't want to disturb him, so he went out of the valley alone.
Just when he walked to a secluded and uninhabited place, Linfeng faintly heard a conversation in front of him, and vaguely heard some treasures and the like, Linfeng was curious at the moment, and immediately restrained his breath, slowly leaned over, hid in the bushes, opened his eyes and looked over, and saw that there were two women and three men discussing something.
Lin Feng heard the voice of one of them saying: "This time about the relics of the Southern God, after the end of this fair, we will immediately follow the route shown on the map, this matter can only be known to a few of us, and the treasure obtained by that time will be divided equally among the five of us!"
"Yes!
"I'm okay with that!"
"I'm for it!"
"I listen to everyone!"
