Volume 1 Xingyun Asking the Heart Chapter 38 Qicheng Lingmu Zhai
Lone Shadow and Xiao Bai stood under the high city gate of Qi City, even if they got off the car for a long time, Gu Ying still didn't react, it didn't take long for him to enter the realm of trial of the mind, but how could Qi Cheng have already arrived when he opened his eyes again.
"Have I slept for a long time?" Lone Shadow asked Xiao Bai a little blankly, Xiao Bai tilted his head and was stunned after hearing this, then nodded, signaling that Gu Ying fell asleep not long after getting into the car, until he was woken up by the coachman just now.
Lone Shadow looked at Xiao Bai's narration, shook his head and supported his forehead, looking like he didn't remember anything after drinking high, after a while, he picked up Xiao Bai and put it on his shoulder and walked towards the city, his thoughts were very chaotic now, and the faint pain in his chest was still reminding him that the next time he tried his mind, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to pass.
After entering the city, Lone Ying did not rush to find the inn, but walked towards the pharmacy in Qicheng, he had collected a lot of unused elixirs in the Kongnan Mountains before, and he could go to the pharmacy to resell them first, of course, he still specially left a set for Lin Wanxi, and brought it to her when he went back this time.
Walking on the street, Lone Shadow found that this place is indeed very different from Nancheng, there are many people who are cultivating spirits on the street, and occasionally you can see three or two of them Cultivating Spirit Realm monks, and the content of their chats is basically around cultivating Yunyun or patting the sycophants of their companions, and the scene is not lively.
After wandering around the city for a long time, Lone Shadow found a small elixir shop, and he also put a lot of thought into the choice of this shop, the store was afraid of bullying customers, and the shop was afraid of not accepting it, so he chose such a shop.
I saw that the plaque on the shop said "Lingmu Zhai" three big characters, although the store is not big, but the customers inside are endless, the lone shadow stopped to observe for a while and then stepped in.
"Hello officer, what do you need to buy? There is a ...... that has just arrived in the shop" As soon as Lone Shadow stepped into the store, a shoulder-length short hair and a pleasant-looking little pharmacist greeted him, and he was very enthusiastic about recommending the elixir in the store to Lone Shadow.
Lone Shadow hurriedly stopped the other party and asked, "I'm not here to buy medicine, I want to ask your store to accept the elixir?"
The little pharmacist, who was about to talk about the elixir in the store, paused when he heard this, but soon smiled again and said, "Accept it, how much does the guest officer want?"
Lone Shadow scratched his head, and roughly estimated the amount of elixir in his pocket in his heart, comparing three fingers.
"Okay, take out the herbs and I'll see the color. The little pharmacist had already come to the back of the medicine table, took out a small name and said.
"Forehead......" Lone Shadow was stunned for a moment, and said: "It's thirty ......"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room instantly froze, and the little pharmacist took the hand slightly stiffened, and hurriedly ran out and took Lone Shadow's hand to the backyard, but the monks who were originally buying medicine next to Lone Shadow glanced meaningfully at the direction in which Lone Shadow and the two left.
"What's wrong?" asked Lone Shadow, confused by the other party's actions.
The little medicine master glanced at Gu Ying and said, "Do you know what thirty elixirs mean? Even if it is the cheapest spirit root, you can have at least a thousand taels of silver for thirty strains, and it is the first time I have seen you so bluntly say that you want to produce thirty elixirs. ”
Generally, those who can produce this amount of elixir are some large family sects or large pharmacist organizations, and even if they take it out and resell it, they will inform the medicine store in advance, how can there be such a fool as Lone Shadow, who will sell thirty elixirs when he comes to the store alone.
"Isn't it like I gave you a gesture before, didn't you understand......" Lone Shadow said a little helplessly, what else can I do now that I have said it?
But this also made him react all of a sudden, his current values seem to be different from before, when he first came out, he taught Xiaobai to know the truth that the husband is not guilty and guilty, but now he no longer puts thousands of taels of silver in his eyes.
In fact, it is true, at the beginning, Liu Tianfa waved his hand to give Lone Shadow a thousand taels of silver, and then went to the Kongnan Mountain Range, saw the strange old man's cave medicine field, and he continued to eat the elixir for half a month, and his values were already different from ordinary people, and Lone Shadow did feel that these thirty elixirs were nothing.
But as everyone knows, most people in this world are actually only struggling on the edge of the food and clothing line, and they may have to save money for months to buy an elixir, which is why so many people have not been able to completely plant the elixir.
The little pharmacist was speechless for a while when she heard this, who would come alone and sell thirty elixirs stupidly, and with her eyesight, she could also see that Lone Ying was just a little monk in the early stage of the spiritual realm, although she didn't know where this little monk got so many elixirs, but this person must not be deeply involved in the world.
Lone Ying also sighed a little, he had been ridiculing Xiaobai for his lack of business ability in the Kongnan Mountains before, but now from the attitude of this little pharmacist, it seems that this guy's business ability is a little too strong.
The little medicine master led Lone Ying to a small room in the courtyard, knocked on the door lightly and said, "Grandpa, there is a guest here who wants to produce thirty elixirs, please take a look." ”
"Oh, thirty elixirs, why don't you take a breath in advance?" The door opened, and a radiant white-bearded old man appeared in front of Lone Shadow.
The little pharmacist put on a helpless look and said, "I'm also startled, take a look, I'll go back to the store to receive guests first." After the little medicine master finished speaking, he gestured to the lonely shadow and left.
The conversation between the two made Lone Shadow a little embarrassed, and he didn't know that there were so many twists and turns in selling a medicine.
"Hahaha, let's talk about it when you come into the house. The white-bearded old man smiled and invited Lone Shadow into the house.
The room is not big or small, there are cabinets containing medicine on the front and back sides, and the lone shadow smells the fragrance of medicine all over the house as soon as he comes in, which makes people feel refreshed.
"Xiaoyou looks at Mian Sheng, shouldn't he be from Qicheng?" said the white-bearded old man at the desk in the middle of the house, making a cup of tea for Lone Shadow.
After sitting down, Lone Shadow looked at the white-bearded old man in front of him, the other party's eyes were exceptionally clear, although he was in his twilight years, he was radiant, and he actually showed the trend of the old tree in spring, and the last time the old man who gave Lone Shadow this feeling was that Wang Andaochang.
"Breaking the Delusion Realm?" Lone Shadow said secretly in his heart, he didn't expect that there was a strong man in this small medicine shop who broke the delusion realm, and immediately spoke: "The seniors have good eyesight, and the juniors came from Nancheng to pour some medicinal materials for Uncle Mu Yuchen." ”
Lone Shadow half-lied and said, anyway, now he is also involved in the banner of the Nancheng City Lord's Mansion, and at this time he can just pull it down to form a protection for himself, after all, he is not familiar with the place when he first came here, and he is facing a strong man who is much stronger than himself, and Lone Shadow is also afraid that the other party will rely on his own strength to buy and sell.
Even if the other party really wants to investigate, then he will get off the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion, even if it is not a real uncle-nephew relationship with Mu Yuchen, it must have something to do with the City Lord's Mansion, but he is not afraid of anything.
The white-bearded old man touched his beard and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the nephew of the lord of Nancheng City, the old man said that who has such a big hand, and he hasn't had time to introduce himself, the old man Qingmu Shan, is the main steward and chief pharmacist of this Lingmu Zhai." ”
After Lone Shadow's remarks, the other party obviously raised Lone Shadow's identity and status from his heart a lot, which also shows that Lone Shadow is now officially qualified to trade with it.
"The younger generation is lonely, the first time I cooperate with my seniors, and I hope that my seniors will not bully me. Lone Shadow also clenched his fists and said.
"Hahaha, that's natural, the most important thing for me to do business in Lingmuzhai is the word reputation, how much the market price of the old man will not be missing you, take out your elixir and show it to the old man." Aoki Shanshan laughed and said.
Hearing this, Lone Shadow took out jade boxes from the back basket behind him, placed them on the table one by one, and looked at no more, no less, exactly thirty boxes.
Aoki Shan nodded, picked up a jade box casually, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and said: "Blooming grass, the year should be more than 20 years, the smell is good, and the quality is good." ”
As he spoke, he slowly opened the jade box, and a spirit grass that emitted bursts of ghostly light was lying quietly in it, although it had lost its roots, it still exuded vigor, as if it had just been picked.
Looking at the blooming grass in his hand, the old man showed a satisfied look in his eyes: "The blooming grass has a very high curative effect on the calm of the gods, your condition is really good, but it's a pity that the year is a few years less, the market price of the blooming grass is three hundred, and my Lingmu Zhai is three hundred and two, what about Xiaoyou?"
Lone Shadow pondered for a while, it was indeed about the same price, and even the price offered by the other party was a few points higher than the price in his heart, so he nodded directly and made a deal without much hypocrisy.
Aoki Shan nodded, he always does business directly out of the estimated price in his heart, will not bring low or high, naturally does not want guests to come over to bargain with him, for business is the basic principle of his Lingmu Zhai.
The discussion between the two lasted until the afternoon, and Lone Shadow was very satisfied with the price offered by the other party, and Aoki Cedar also appreciated Lone Shadow's medicinal materials, so the atmosphere was quite pleasant after the whole transaction.
"Little friend of the lonely shadow, there are a total of 4,300 silver tickets here, you can put it away. Aoki Sugi handed the silver ticket to Lone Shadow, four for one thousand taels and three for one hundred taels, which were also convenient to count.
Lone Ying took the silver ticket and glanced at it casually and put it into his arms, he had almost no concept of money now, and he didn't know what these more than four thousand taels meant to an ordinary monk, he only knew that he needed money in Qicheng, so he sold some elixir for some money.
Aoki Shan looked at the indifferent reaction of Lone Shadow to take the silver ticket, thinking that the other party was really not an ordinary family, and Lone Shadow was also included in the category of people he could make friends with since then, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou is really extraordinary, he can come to me Lingmu Zhai if he needs it in the future." ”
"Thank you seniors for your kindness, it's not too early, and the lonely shadow will leave first. The lone shadow smiled slightly, accepted the other party's kindness, and then turned to leave.
Aoki Shanmu watched the lonely shadow leave, and suddenly called: "Ling Wu." ”
"What do you command?" asked a man in black who suddenly appeared in the shadows, kneeling behind Aoki Sugi with his fists clenched.
"Escort our little guest back safely. Aoki Shan said lightly, he could guess the movement caused by the lonely shadow when he came, since he wanted to make a good fate, he might as well be more meticulous in his service.
"No!"
"Wait. ”
"What else does the master command?"
"Don't take action until it's critical. ”
