The entire Imperial City, not counting the Imperial Palace, is divided into ninety-seven areas, and among these ninety-seven areas, the central part occupies one percent, and the north is the largest, occupying nearly two percent. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Bai Xiaochun's spirit refining shop is located on the edge of the eighty-ninth block, although it is not prosperous, but as long as it is a shop in this imperial city, its own value is already very high.
When Bai Xiaochun finally found it, it was already late at night, but on this street, he could still see the lights in the shops and the people coming in and out.
It's just that Bai Xiaochun is a little depressed, he looks at the shop in front of him, the façade of this shop is not big, only about one zhang, compared with the façade of other shops around him, it is very inconspicuous.
There is a plaque in front of the door with three words written on it...... Soul Refining Shop.
No matter how simple the three words are, they are all dilapidated, which makes Bai Xiaochun a little dumbfounded, as for the inside, it is a long strip, it seems that in addition to the shops, there is also a backyard, but no matter how you look at it, compared with other shops, it is too small.
Especially although there are lights inside, it is not bright, and the gap between the lights and other shops is too big, not to mention the crowds coming and going.
The only thing that comforted Bai Xiaochun was that there were not no customers in this shop, at this moment there was such a young man, standing there, as if he was constantly inhaling, his chest was rising and falling violently, and before Bai Xiaochun walked in, he saw that the young man was furious and roared.
"My March Flowing Cloud Bead, you actually refined it for me!!"
"Damn, I just asked you to refine my spirit twice, twice, you, you, you, ......you,
"This person should be from outside, otherwise, how could he choose this place to refine spirits. ”
"That's it, this well-known waste of the spirit refining shop, it is a miracle that it can be opened until now. ”
Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Bai Xiaochun frowned, looked at the young man in the shop, walked out with anger, and scolded the shop a few more times, and then left depressedly, Bai Xiaochun sighed, he could see that this shop has no other value except for its own value.
"That's it, all I wanted was to find a place to stay. Bai Xiaochun shook his head, walked towards the shop, and after entering the shop, he saw that in this small room, there was only one old fellow, lying on the desk, looking bored, as for the surrounding walls, most of them were empty, although there were also some spirit refining items placed, but Bai Xiaochun could see at a glance that these items were at most three or four times of spirit refining.
Seeing Bai Xiaochun come in, the old man yawned, and after his eyes swept over Bai Xiaochun, he didn't pay attention to it, Bai Xiaochun looked around, sighed again, came to the desk, and put the land deed jade slip on it.
"If you want to refine this jade slip, let's say it first, whether you succeed or not, the fee will be collected first, and I will not be responsible for it after failure. The old man was stunned, raised his head suspiciously, and said a word, then picked up the jade slip, swept his eyes, first stunned and then widened.
"Are you the owner?" the old man stood up, looked at Bai Xiaochun a few times, and then sat down again.
"This should be my shop. Bai Xiaochun thought about it, felt that he had not made a mistake, and said depressedly.
"Well, since you're here, settle the wages for me, three thousand soul pills for one year, and three thousand soul pills for the next year, if you don't give it, don't blame the old man for withdrawing. The old man sat there, a little arrogant, his eyes fell on Bai Xiaochun, in his opinion, although his spirit refining is average, he is familiar with this shop and the Kuihuang City, and now he is the only one guarding the shop, and the other party is inseparable from him.
"Wages?" Bai Xiaochun was stunned for a moment, and after asking a few words carefully, he understood that although the original business of this shop was average, it was definitely not what it is now, but since the shop belonged to Bai Xiaochun, the original family withdrew all the personnel in the shop, leaving only such an old man to take care of it.
This old guy's level of refining spirits is very average, so it makes this shop worse, and now it is not notorious, and it is not too much, and it is almost impossible to see people coming in on weekdays, and occasionally a foreigner comes in, and he is often pitted and never comes again.
Bai Xiaochun was a little speechless, looking at the old guy in front of him, he looked like if if you didn't give me wages, I would just throw my hands and leave, slapped the storage bag, and directly took out three thousand soul pills and threw them over.
"Let's go!"
"You let me go?" The old man was stunned for a moment, his face showed displeasure, and he walked out of the desk directly with three thousand soul pills, flicked his sleeves, and left the store.
"In less than a month, this person will definitely invite me back, in this Imperial City, there are many spirit refining shops, and the competition between them is already extremely fierce, if you want to find a soul refining master to sit in the town, the price he will pay will be higher. The old man sneered a few times and walked farther and farther.
Seeing that the old man was gone, Bai Xiaochun's eyes swept over the empty shop, simply closed the door of the shop, and after arranging the prohibition, he began to clean it until late at night, when he finally tidied up the inside and outside of the shop, including the backyard and the house where he lived, then sat cross-legged in the backyard, looked around, and sighed.
"It's not comparable to my house in the Giant Ghost City. Bai Xiaochun shook his head, more and more nostalgic for his days in the giant ghost city, and even more regretted that he honestly handed over Chen Manyao at the beginning, wouldn't it be over.
Bai Xiaochun was not satisfied with this shop, but Bai Hao's soul was the opposite, extremely satisfied with this shop, he was a ghost cultivator, his soul body was special, and after floating around in this shop for a few times, his expression was satisfied, and he returned to Bai Xiaochun's side, and opened his mouth excitedly.
"Master, it's very good here, since we won't go back to the giant ghost city for a short time, let's settle down here, the spiritual power here is very nourishing to me, and practicing here is much faster than other places. Bai Hao said excitedly, his body shook, his appearance changed again, turning into a middle-aged appearance, standing beside Bai Xiaochun.
"What is this bit of aura, wait for the teacher to take you to a better place in the future, the aura is countless times richer than here. Bai Xiaochun said listlessly.
"Master don't be discouraged, I think it's pretty good here, Master can practice on weekdays, and as for the guys in the shop, I can do it. Bai Hao's soul said this, a little excited, he was in the Bai Xiaochun Soul Tower on weekdays, although because of its special soul body, and the protection of Bai Xiaochun's mask, he was not afraid of being seen, but after all, he was only building a foundation and cultivating before his death, and the farthest place he had been to was only the Ecstasy Forest before death.
Now that he has come to Kuihuang City, there is a shop, and he is inevitably excited.
Bai Xiaochun saw that Bai Hao was happy here, and his mood was a little better, his eyes fell on Bai Hao's soul, and he saw that the other party seemed to have some sense of belonging to this place.
"Also, my disciple has a bad fate, after becoming a ghost cultivator, and because I used his identity, even if he wanted to contact people, he didn't dare to show it too much, but he was wronged by him. Bai Xiaochun groaned, pinched the trick with his right hand, and pointed at Bai Hao's soul, and suddenly the power of his mask was dispersed, which increased a lot, and condensed on Bai Hao's soul.
"Master......" Bai Hao was stunned.
"When there are people in the future, you will be wronged and pretend to be a soul slave for the teacher, thinking that the master's spiritual attainments can bring this shop back to life with a flip of your hands. Bai Xiaochun smiled, savage soul refiners, many of them have so-called soul slaves around them, these soul slaves are dull and can only do some simple things.
Let Bai Hao's soul pretend to be a soul slave, he can solve his problems, and his ghost cultivation is invisible, his appearance changes, and he is not afraid of being seen by others.
Bai Hao's soul was moved in his heart, looked at his master, and bowed deeply with his fists.
In this way, the master and apprentice lived in this shop, and it was not until a few days later that the door of the shop was reopened.
It's just that the reputation of this shop has been stinky, and when it has been open for more than half a month, I can only see the bustling outside, and other shops around are full of people, but he is the only one here, no one cares.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaochun couldn't sit still when he thought of what he said before, and after groaning, he immediately ordered Bai Hao.
"Apprentice, I thought about it, no one came to our shop because the name was not loud enough, you go and change the name, it will be called ...... The world's No. 1 Spirit Refining Shop!" Bai Xiaochun said proudly.
