Volume 3: Jedi Life Chapter 116, Shyness in the Pocket

Hearing that there was also a Fang market on the island, Yi Xuan made up his mind to go and see it, and saw that it was getting late and was ready to go again tomorrow, but the little two were very good at observing words and feelings, and explained to Yi Xuan: "Guest officer, generally monks go to sea to hunt during the day and return to the island at night, but this Fang market is even more lively at night, and there are people running it all night. If you want to go, it's just right after dinner!"

Yi Xuan saw that this little two was clever and intelligent, so he ordered a few small dishes at the inn according to his suggestion, and after rewarding him, he slowly paced towards Fang City.

Although Shanxi Island is a small island, but there are more than ten miles of radius, Yi Xuan lives in the east of the island, and it takes a lot of effort to go to the west, and finally comes to the gate of Fang City, and sure enough, as Xiao Er said, the lights are bright and lively: Xuantian River is surrounded by the ocean, and the monks are basically dressed in short brown casual clothes, which looks clean and neat, and the things sold in the Fang Market are basically produced in the sea, the fur and blood of various sea beasts, and all kinds of spiritual grass are also very different from Shuiyunchuan, and the elixir magic weapons are even more varied, and Yi Xuan is dizzying, but when he asked about the price, he was surprised。

I don't know if it's due to the abundance of products, the price of goods in the market is nearly fifty percent higher than that of Shui Yunchuan, taking the Yiyuan Pill taken by the Spirit Monk as an example, Shui Yunchuan is only thirty spirit stones a bottle, and it is actually sold here for fifty spirit stones. The three hundred spirit stones in Yi Xuan's pocket couldn't even buy a decent mid-level magic weapon, and it could be said that he was extremely shy in his pocket, and even a small spiritual cultivation was inferior.

"Spirit Stone Spirit Stone, I want to earn Spirit Stone!" Fang Shi walked down, and there was only one thought left in Yi Xuan's mind. Seeing that there were also people selling spirit runes in the market, Yi Xuan walked up and stopped to watch: the spirit runes here are the same as what Yi Xuan has learned, and they are also divided into low, medium, and high levels according to their power, and Yi Xuan's familiar fireball runes, water arrow runes, thunder runes, and flying fire meteor runes are all sold, but the only difference is that the spirit runes here are not drawn on rune paper, and the pigment used is not cinnabar, but is painted on the animal skin with the blood of sea beasts.

Yi Xuan was very curious, picked up a fireball talisman casually, and asked, "This merchant, how many spirit stones are there for this kind of spirit rune?"

The merchant on the stall didn't raise his head, and said casually: "Low-level spirit runes are not sold alone, ten pieces of thirty spirit stones, and forty pieces of one hundred spirit stones!"

Yi Xuan continued to ask, "What about the mid-rank spirit runes?"

The merchant was a little impatient: "A middle-grade spirit rune with forty spirit stones is worth two prices!"

Yi Xuan saw that the price of the spirit rune was very expensive, and he was good at refining, so he immediately decided* to buy some animal skins and essence blood, and tried to draw the spirit rune and sell it for cash. Moving to a stall selling sea beast materials, without waiting for Yi Xuan to ask, the stall owner took the initiative to solicit business: "This Taoist friend, I don't know what you want to buy?

Yi Xuan himself was extremely familiar with this set of rhetoric when he was doing chores in Changyang County, so he was not moved at all, pointing to a blue animal skin and asking, "What kind of sea beast fur is this, and what is the price?"

The stall owner picked up the animal skin, smoothed it with his hands, and introduced it to Yi Xuan: "This is the skin of the blue dolphin in the hidden sea, taken from the strongest part of the fur on the back of the sea beast. Presumably, Daoist friends are proficient in runes, a hundred spirit stones for animal skins, and I will give a bottle of essence blood for free, how about it?"

Yi Xuan saw that the size of the animal skin could be divided into small pieces of nearly thirty palms or so to draw the spirit rune, so he did not make a counteroffer with the stall owner, and before he walked away, the stall owner took out a talisman pen and shook it at Yi Xuan: "Daoist friend, can you still take a look at the talisman pen?" This pen is taken from the tail hair of the disillusioned sea manatee, it is extremely soft and full of spiritual power, and making the spirit rune is definitely like a tiger with wings!"

Yi Xuan thought that he would not bother the two masters, and stopped to inquire again.

"This was originally priced at one hundred and eighty spirit stones, but Daoyou is a regular customer, and the discount is one hundred and fifty spirit stones!"

After buying the talisman pen, there are only more than fifty spirit stones left in the bag, and when he pays the room fee tomorrow, he is afraid that it will be a problem to even eat, Yi Xuan did not dare to wander around the market anymore, and hurried back to the inn to draw the spirit rune.

Returning to the inn room and instructing Xiao Er not to disturb at will, Yi Xuan spread the animal skin flat on the table, cut it into small pieces three inches wide and five inches long with the Starfall Sword, cut out exactly twenty-seven pieces for later use, took out the manatee pen stained with essence blood, and began to draw spirit runes.

Since he didn't know the spiritual power attributes of the beast skin talisman paper, Yi Xuan didn't dare to make a mid-level spirit rune directly, but tried a low-level water arrow talisman first. Yi Xuan picked up the manatee pen in his right hand, took a deep breath, transported the water spiritual power in his body to the index finger of his right hand and slowly injected it into the rune pen, seeing that the rune pen began to emit a soft blue aura little by little, he concentrated on watching the texture of the animal skin rune paper, and a familiar water arrow rune appeared in his mind, and when the last stroke was completed, a blue aura flashed, and a low-level water arrow rune was completed.

Yi Xuan found that the rune paper made of this animal skin was easier to gather spiritual power than the yellow bell grass rune paper, as long as the person who made the rune was extremely familiar with the rune and did not damage it halfway, the power of the final spirit rune was more than two percent higher than that of the yellow bell grass rune paper, which was indeed unique. There was no time to sigh more, Yi Xuan made all the remaining rune paper into a middle-grade Xuanbing rune, and obtained a total of eleven finished spirit runes, deducting the cost of animal skins and essence blood to earn a net of three hundred spirit stones.

The next day, Yi Xuan returned to the island owner's mansion again, and asked Cheping what way to sell the spirit runes.

Che Ping thought about it carefully and replied: "Instead of going to the market by yourself to sell it is time-consuming and laborious, it is better to sell it directly to the government-run shops, although it is only about 7% off the market price, but it is better to buy in large quantities!"

Yi Xuan also felt justified when he heard Che Ping's words, after all, he only earned spirit stones for quick cultivation, and it would be unwise to spend a lot of time selling spirit runes, so he asked for the path of the government-run shop, and said goodbye to Che Ping.

In fact, the government-run shop is less than half a mile away from the north of the Fang City where Yi Xuan traveled last night, a five-story attic in all directions, the style is consistent with the architectural style of the island owner's mansion, showing gorgeous wealth, and there is a plaque hanging on the lintel: Sifang Building. There were very few monks in the shop, and they were talking quietly with the clerks, which was much quieter than the noisy environment in the market.

Seeing that Yi Xuan was dressed simply and looking around, a clerk came over and asked coldly, "I don't know what you are doing here?"

Yi Xuan didn't mind, took out a water arrow talisman, and said, "I want to ask the store if it buys the spirit talisman!"

The clerk squinted at the spirit rune in Yi Xuan's hand, and said disdainfully: "The customers of this store are either rich or expensive, this kind of low-level spirit rune is afraid that it is not eye-catching, I look at the Taoist friends, or go to the opposite side of the market to see if there are any buyers!"

Taking out all eleven mid-level Xuanbing runes again, Yi Xuan asked again, "Oh, I just got the wrong spirit rune! I'm asking about this kind of middle-level spirit rune, I don't know what the store wants?"
