Chapter 37: Ten Mile Xingyue Street
I saw that the plaque full of peach blossoms suddenly puffed up a face.
If you take a closer look, it's still an old man's face, the old Long Zhong is full of white hair, not to mention, the white beard has long fallen to the bridge and scattered all over the ground.
His eyes were half-open, no, as if he didn't have eyes at all, but there were two lines above his nose, and two red lights flashed faintly in them, as if they were his eyes.
For this sudden appearance of a human face, Lisheng was taken aback, but after the surprise, it was like that.
Eight wilderness, there are only those you can't think of, and there are no monsters that are not here.
"Who are you? Why don't you know the rules on the bridge?"
The old man's face spoke again.
As he spoke, he could clearly see puffs of white smoke coming out of his mouth.
Rules on the bridge?
Lisheng was silent for a moment, thinking back to what he said just now, it seems that he has to pay a fee to cross this bridge.
Of course, she knew it in her heart, but she still had to ask clearly.
After hesitating, he replied politely: "Little demon Lisheng, this is the first time I came to Guibao Land, and I don't know the rules on this bridge. Dare to hope that the seniors will explain one or two. ”
The old man's face saw that the carp sheng was still polite, and then he stretched out a hand and touched the long white beard and laughed: "It's the first time I've heard of a demon who calls himself a little demon, what an interesting baby." Come here, and let the old man tell you this rule himself. ”
Kiss?
Lisheng smiled awkwardly and hurriedly said, "Thank you, senior!"
After all, he said that it was in the past, but it was only a symbolic move of two steps, and he was still a few feet away from the old man.
Seeing Lisheng's cautiousness, the old man nodded slightly, and then said: "Xingyue Street is an exchange place that specializes in providing spiritual stones and currency equivalent transactions to spiritual cultivators, and there are only thirteen bridges in the Eight Desolations. In order to prevent people from making trouble on Xingyue Street, the head of the street hereby sets up a rule for crossing the bridge to leave his name. And as for the road money..."
He paused, looking at the carp.
Lisheng knew why he was looking at her, but she pretended not to understand what he meant.
In another world, if you are too smart, it is easy to die, and it is better to be stupid.
Seeing that Lisheng was silent, the old man's face had no choice but to continue: "The Thirteen Bridges were built at the expense of the people in charge of the street, and they spent too much financial and material resources back then, but now they provide convenience for you demon spirit monks, so that you can take out some silver from your pockets, which is understandable. Little monster, you said yes, right?"
Hearing the words little monster, Lisheng subconsciously thought of a pair of gilded golden eyes, and after losing his mind for a moment, he immediately nodded: "Indeed, there is no need." ”
That being said, this person in charge of the street is really not a vegetarian, although he built the bridge at his own expense, but now just collecting the money to buy the road is enough for him to make a lot of money.
Of course, there is no treachery and no business, and it will hurt at first sight, and the situation in the real world is even more serious.
"Then how much money should I pay for this road? Pay it now? Or pay it later?" Lisheng didn't want to waste time, and he couldn't escape it anyway, so he had to follow the local customs.
The old man's face immediately replied, "Pay it now." Pay as much as you want, don't want silver taels, just the spirit stones of each attribute. ”
Want spirit stones?
Lisheng was slightly stunned.
I thought it was asking for money, but it turned out to be a spirit stone?
This person in charge of the street is not greedy for money, so is it because he has collected so many spirit stones to improve his cultivation?
A lot of questions immediately poured out, but Lisheng just wanted to hurry to the other side of the bridge to take a look, casually picked out a yellow vitality stone from the black brocade box, and shook it at the old man's face, slightly proud: "Okay, right?"
When the old man saw it, he stretched out an arm, and with a slight wave, the arm became longer like a tape, and the spirit stone in Lisheng's hand was received into the cuff.
At the same time, a light-colored peach petal, only the size of a little thumb, pressed to her chest, and then emitted a faint red light.
"Please. ”
With just one word, the wall of water in front of Lisheng slowly disappeared.
Lisheng nodded politely at him again, did not hesitate, and hurriedly got on the bridge.
Because she suddenly realized that there was already a long queue behind her.
As soon as she got on the bridge, the old man smiled at her on the bridge, and then slowly disappeared back into the peach blossom plaque.
The people behind must have been here many times, and they are basically the same movements.
Before going up to the bridge, the spirit stone was placed, and after the number of petals of different colors appeared on her chest, she crossed the wall of water, went straight to the bridge, and walked past her.
Seeing them in a hurry, Lisheng didn't dare to talk, and followed them down the bridge.
At a glance, she finally understood what the ten-mile Xingyue Street meant.
Let's talk about the length first, although I don't know if there are ten miles, but it is indeed a straight road that you can't see the end at a glance, and the road is made of what material it is made of, and it will turn into colorful light when you step on it, which is extremely beautiful.
And this Xingyue Street is not in vain, it is obviously daytime, but here it is night, and the whole avenue is not lit without any lights, all relying on the starlight that keeps falling in the air, and a round of jade moon hanging in the air.
"Xingyue Street..."
True to its name, it's empty and beautiful.
Lisheng was dumbfounded, and it wasn't until the person behind him hit her with his arm that he came back to his senses.
It is worth mentioning that this place is a little more lively than outside, people come and go, and the shops on both sides of the road are also of various colors, but they are all shops that trade spirit stones, and there are all kinds of spirit stones in the store, and there are all kinds of spirit stones, all shapes.
Lisheng hurriedly took out the black brocade box, she didn't plan to go to many houses like shopping, so she walked into the first store called 'Jun'.
She didn't know the words of the Eight Desolations before, but thanks to this body, she can now be able to read well, but she only recognizes it.
As soon as I entered the door, I looked up and saw a male boss settling accounts, pulling the abacus without raising his head.
After seeing the carp, he didn't get up, glanced at her, and then continued to pull the abacus.
This naked, naked disregard is really unpleasant.
Lisheng pursed his lips slightly, but he was not angry, he didn't look at the spirit stone stall in the front position, leaned on the table in front of him, and put the black gold box in front of him with a 'snap'.
He didn't speak, but stared at him, and opened the box.
The male boss naturally has read countless people, and when he first saw that Lisheng didn't even have a golden body, he naturally subconsciously thought that she couldn't take out any treasures.
It wasn't until she proudly came to the front and fell off the box with a smile but not a smile that she was taken aback.
When he saw the Yuan Qi Stone on the box, his eyes widened slightly, and when he saw the Spirit Blood Pill in the box, the abacus in his hand couldn't help but 'bang', tearing his finger apart, and the jade vermilion abacus was splashed all over the ground before he started.
"This, this... Spirit Blood Pill?!"
"Hmph~"
Lisheng smiled sweetly at him, his eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and his red lips spat lightly: "I won't sell you." ”
Then he closed the black gold box with a "pop~", and walked out proudly in the stunned eyes of the male boss.
By the time the male boss reacted, she had already walked out of the store, with the black gold box on her back, and walked to the store in front without hesitation.
"Girl, slow down! I'll pay 50,000 taels each! No, 100,000! No, no, you can open whatever you want, and I'll follow you!"
