Chapter 12 Each has a ghost
Shen Chai or Lin Chai has never been a benevolent person, on the contrary, he has always left the world with an indifferent and ruthless image, so much so that he left a reputation for cold-blooded pursuit of life in his previous life.
However, people are people, things are things, and feelings are feelings, and only when they are clearly distinguished, can they have a clear conscience and act openly. And Shen chased this love, so he clenched the bag of star stones, went away, and returned them when the time came.
On the east side of Desert Knife City, a shopkeeper leaned against the doorway of his house, a little overwhelmed. There were people coming and going, and there was a lot of traffic, but they all ran to their counterparts in the two-story building opposite.
What caused such a gap in popularity was not only the size of the stores on both sides, one tall and one short, but also the two-story building that knew how to do business, and knew that in the past few days, various discounts have been made, and it has rubbed off a wave of popularity in Modao City recently.
On the other hand, this old and quaint old store has no life, and even the owner is sleepy-eyed, as if he loves to ignore it, so naturally there are no customers coming to the door.
Suddenly, a young man's voice came from the side: "Boss, do you have Magnolia whiskers here?"
"I don't know, you can go and ask on the other side. The shopkeeper didn't raise his head, but replied casually.
The young man seemed a little helpless, and continued: "I've already been to that store, and I see that there seems to be one on the counter not far behind you. ”
The boss came back to his senses at this time, and looked sideways at this unique young man with sharp edges and sharp eyebrows, with double willow leaves and sword eyebrows, the young man's eyes were blazing, and he pointed to a place on the counter behind him, on which there was a dark blue herb.
"Oh, you want this, this is not cheap..."Before the boss finished speaking, the young man put a bag of heavy stones in front of him, and instantly blocked the boss's mouth.
This magnolia whisker, he has been looking for it in the city for a long time, and he didn't expect to see it in this small shop, it must be very expensive and he has to take it, because this is one of the necessary materials for him to refine the secret medicine.
Shen Chai continued to look at the display cabinet behind the boss, layer by layer, meticulous and cautious, and was pleasantly surprised to find that there were several scarce auxiliary materials, and he naturally won them in one go, although each one was expensive.
And whenever Shen Chai tried to bargain with this boss, he was in a posture of loving to buy or not, and the oil and salt did not enter, so that the family money that Shen Chai temporarily borrowed from Mo Xiaoyu was instantly empty.
Just when Shen Chai was full of harvest and was about to leave, the sleepy-eyed boss said coldly: "I still have red blood cream here, do you want it?"
Shen Chai stopped in an instant, turned his head sharply, and looked at the black-faced boss who was still squinting and lazy, trying to see something from his face and eyes.
"How do you know that I need this?" Shen Chai asked silently.
"Magnolia whiskers, mushroom grass, silver fox fruit, all of these you want, all of them are hot things, and the big stack of Lingling lion horns in your bag, if I guess it is good, it should be to refine the medicine of quenching the body, since you want to quench the body, how can you lack the treasure of heaven and earth such as red snow condensation frost?"
The shopkeeper said exactly what he said, just relying on the few herbs that Shen Chai bought, and the few items revealed in the package, he could accurately deduce Shen Chai's intentions.
But the formula materials of this secret medicine can never be seen just by looking at a few of them, let alone directly pointing out that it is used for quenching, because the source of this secret medicine is not from Fengchuan Country, or even from the northern half of the continent.
Therefore, when the shopkeeper asked that sentence, Shen Chai was surprised, and asked back with a calm face.
That's right, the red snow gel in his mouth is not a necessity for this secret medicine, but it is definitely the icing on the cake, which can enhance the efficacy of the medicine to the extreme, and is the most ideal external excipient.
Shen Chai walked past the shopkeeper, looked at the small shop behind him again, looked at the dazzling array of containers, and then looked up at the door plaque, and found that it was empty, nameless! Finally, when he returned to his dark and slightly stubble face, he still couldn't see his eyes clearly.
Although he understood the extraordinary nature of this nameless shop and the unpredictability of the shop owner, Shen Chai did not plan to break the casserole and ask to the end, because while listening to the details of a person, it often also represented his own exposure.
And now revealing his identity will undoubtedly bring endless trouble, or danger, this Shen Chai is convinced, even if ten years have passed on this continent, even if it is estimated that the world has long forgotten him.
Therefore, he just replied lightly: "I don't have the net worth to win that precious red snow condensation frost, so forget it." ”
Without waiting for Shen to chase away, the shopkeeper followed closely and said, "I don't want your star stone, and I don't want a star crystal, I just need to divide my share after refining this quenching body fluid." ”
Seeing that Shen Chai was deep in thought, the swarthy boss said again: "If you agree, this Red Snow Gel will not only be given to you, but if you need all kinds of herbs in the future, they will all be discounted and sold at a low price." ”
It seems that the shopkeeper doesn't know how to do business, but only takes action on what he needs, of course, Shen Chai planned to refuse at the first time, because the hidden value of this secret medicine is far beyond what a herb can measure, but he didn't know what to think, and after the shopkeeper finished speaking, he agreed.
At this moment, he could finally sense a smile on that dark and expressionless face, Shen Chai took the herb handed by the shopkeeper, and finally said, "Tomorrow, I will send the medicine here." ”
The shopkeeper didn't let the boy press something here, but just smiled and watched Shen Chai take his things away, and didn't seem to be worried about breaking his promise.
When Shen chased away, the shopkeeper instantly put away his smile and turned to look at the other side of the street, where it was obviously empty, only a few fallen leaves floated by, but he couldn't help but make the shopkeeper frown, and looked at it coldly for a long time, obviously it was not so simple.
That's right, on the other side of the nameless shop, there is a person hiding in the shadows, peeking at everything in the dark, but it is estimated that he didn't expect his breath to be detected, so he left in a hurry, leaving a few residual leaves, floating in the air.
The huge Mo Yu Villa, large and small, has nearly ten secret doors, which have been broken seven or eight times out of ten, and those secret agents who are wandering outside, and the eyes and ears who are difficult to distinguish are staring at them almost all the time.
But there are still two unknowable places, hidden and hidden, so that you can quietly enter and exit. A man came out this morning, and hurried back at noon, his black hat covering his cheeks.
"My lord, he went out today, purchased a bunch of alchemy materials everywhere, and then went to meet... Xiong Yan. He finally seemed to find me, and he came back first. The man in the hat was kneeling in the backyard of a mansion in the villa, and in front of him stood a burly man in coarse cloth clothes, and said slowly.
The adults of Mo Yu Villa, naturally there are no two except the Sword Emperor, that's right, after the contact that night, the Sword Emperor sent someone to investigate the details of Shen Chai, and arranged for someone to observe him in the dark in real time, and at the right time, he could provide protection.
"Xiong Yan..."The Sword Emperor's eyes flashed, his fingers rubbed his chin, and he muttered: "How could Lin Chai's heir get mixed up with that person, things are getting more and more interesting, but since that person is here, you don't have to follow him anymore." ”
"Yes. The man in the hat took the order briefly and withdrew, but he really couldn't understand why an adult would be so concerned about an ordinary boy who had no power to the stars, even though he might know that person. But the one surnamed Xiong has been in this Desert Knife City for several years, and he really wants to retire in peace?
In fact, there was also a problem with the situation reported by the hat man just now, that is, Shen Chai didn't know the shopkeeper, but just happened to meet his nameless shop, and chatted for a long time.
The Sword Emperor didn't know these details, and Shen Chai wouldn't know either.
The person who used to be nervous and could only use brute force will one day become so delicate in his mind, knowing how to probe the details of others, and knowing how to send people to follow and collect information.
And not long after the man in the hat dressed in black left, the people in the courtyard also changed their clothes, walked towards the secret passage of Mo Yu Villa, and opened their mouths and said directly: "Uncle Yan, I'm going out on a long trip, you can take care of it more these days, and I will come back before the trial conference." ”
