Chapter 91 Labor Expenses
The shopkeeper was obviously also a cultivator, although his cultivation was not high, and he had just crossed the threshold of "condensation", but fortunately, the true qi required to activate the magic circle was not much, and it was a task that could be completed for him.
I saw him hold the hilt of the sword hard, desperately inputting true qi, and after almost ten breaths, a black light suddenly flashed on the sword, and a strange bird covered in black feathers quacked and rushed out of the sword!
Bai Ze and the woman laughed at the same time, the legend of the three-legged golden crow, also known as the sun crow, is a divine bird that drives the day chariot, the biggest feature is three legs and golden feathers, this strange bird does not even have these two basic characteristics, obviously just a demon bird with only a little mana, and the three-legged golden crow has nothing to do with it!
"What are you laughing at? This kind of sealing artifact is very rare, forgive you for not knowing the goods!" the shopkeeper said angrily.
"First, this sealing beast is not a three-legged golden crow at all!" Bai Ze said with a smile.
"Second, your summoning circle is too rough to carve, it takes ten breaths to summon the sealing beast, if it was in the middle of fighting against people, it would have died a long time ago!"
"Hmph, who wouldn't brag?" the shopkeeper was unconvinced: "Do you have a better ...... than mine A better seal?"
He originally wanted to say Do you have a better sword than mine, but when his mind turned to the "rotten rope" that Bai Ze had just taken out, he chuckled in his heart.
In terms of sharpness, the sword in his hand is not as good as the one in the hand of the previous shop, so he hurriedly put the words down first, only compared to the sealing ability, the sealing magic weapon is rare, and it is expected that this person will not be able to come up with better goods for a while.
"Well...... this," Bai Ze muttered deliberately.
The shopkeeper thought that he couldn't take it out, so he couldn't help but say proudly: "It's rare for this huge Whale Bay Sea Market to find a few sealing magic weapons, and you can only brag about your appearance, if you can take out a sealing magic weapon now, my sword will be given to you for nothing!"
"Well...... Since you insist on this, then I will be disrespectful!" Bai Ze quickly finished the second half of the sentence, and folded his sleeves, revealing the tattoo of the six-winged golden cicada on his arm.
When the girl in the pink skirt saw this tattoo, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Bai Ze's heart moved, and the small six-winged golden cicada seemed to come to life, and its wings stirred a few times, and suddenly flew out of Bai Ze's arm.
The six-winged golden cicada is a real ancient beast, and its body naturally exudes the breath of a high-ranking demon beast, the black monster bird was originally holding its head high, but at this moment when it saw this little golden cicada, it seemed to see a big evil star, and screamed twice, and suddenly turned into a black light and threw it into the hilt of the sword, no matter how to summon it and refuse to come out!
The six-winged golden cicada flew around a few people twice, and after chirping a few times, it flew back into the Xuanji bag again, leaving the shopkeeper dumbfounded.
"This ...... This is the legendary six-winged golden cicada?"
"You have good eyesight!" Bai Ze replied with a smile.
No matter how stupid the shopkeeper was, he also realized that Bai Ze was deliberately pretending to play tricks on him just now, and couldn't help but say angrily: "You are really unreasonable, you obviously have such treasures, but you come to fool around with me, isn't it bullying?"
"Then you didn't force me?" Bai Ze spread his hands and said helplessly.
"This ......" The shopkeeper was speechless, and suddenly hugged the sword tightly in his arms: "In any case, my principal on this sword also has 500 spirit stones, and the summoning circle on it is even more true, it can't be given away for nothing, at most the original price will be transferred to you!"
It seems that he lost the bet and wanted to admit it.
Bai Ze shook his head: "500 spirit stones sold me this sword, you will lose the store!"
The shopkeeper didn't hear it clearly, thinking that Bai Ze was too expensive, and said unhappily: "I may not be as good as you in terms of cultivation and net worth, but when it comes to business, you are not my opponent! Although this sword is average in sharpness, with this summoning array, 1,000 spirit stones can be properly sold!"
"I believe this, but ......" Bai Ze deliberately sold a pass.
"Don't you believe it?" The man seemed to be greatly insulted: "The price I offered 2800 just now is indeed a bit dark, but 1000 spirit stones is definitely a great price for this sword, if you don't believe it, wait here for a while, I will offer 1000 spirit stones, if you can't sell it within half a day, I will give you this sword for nothing!"
The shopkeeper was so excited that he forgot that he had already said something similar before, and he had lost badly!
"I believe it, but I want to say that the original quality of this sword is not bad, but the technique of the person who portrays the summoning circle is a little rougher, and if it is slightly changed, even if it is sold for 3,000 spirit stones, it is not expensive!"
"Huh?" The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and suddenly smiled: "At first glance, you are a layman, how easy is it to modify the formed magic circle?"
"The biggest problem with the depiction of this summoning circle is that the flow of spiritual energy is not smooth enough, and it takes ten breaths of time to unblock a seal, if it really starts, who will give you time to summon quietly? Besides, the problem of the return of spiritual energy in the magic circle has not been solved, and the true qi consumed to maintain this sealing beast is thirty percent more than that of ordinary magic circles, if it is a protracted battle, then you will have to suffer a big loss!"
Bai Ze shrugged his shoulders and said with a relaxed face: "But if I change it a little, those two things just now are not a problem!"
"Hmph!" the shopkeeper scoffed at Bai Ze's words: "Who wouldn't brag! It is not easy to depict a magic circle in such a small place as the hilt of a sword, let alone modify an existing magic circle. ”
"What if I could?"
"I'd rather buy it back for 3,000 spirit stones!" The shopkeeper seemed to have forgotten his identity, and handed the sword to Bai Ze, as if he was the buyer, and Bai Ze was the shopkeeper!
"Okay, then I'll make it difficult and give it a try!" Bai Ze didn't shirk, took the sword, and first entered a True Qi to explore the truth.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but widen his eyes and wanted to see the mystery, but the girl in the pink skirt smiled at the side, but she wasn't worried at all.
Sure enough, Bai Ze showed an unfathomable smile on his face, and he didn't see any movement from him, so he handed the sword back casually: "Okay!"
"That's good!" The shopkeeper didn't believe it, took the sword and subconsciously entered a true qi, only to see a black light flickering, and the black strange bird immediately appeared in front of everyone, and the spirit seemed to be much stronger than just now!
Bai Ze had inherited the Big Dipper Heavenly Emperor's "Five Elements Biochemical Qimen Dunjia Technique", and it was really easy for him to modify this small magic circle a little.
"This ......" The shopkeeper was dumbfounded, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, knowing that he had met a master today, he smiled bitterly twice, handed out the sword in his hand, and said: "Since the guest has such a means, I am naturally embarrassed to keep this sword, and I also ask the guest to accept it, and another 1000 spirit stones will be sent." ”
Bai Ze didn't take the sword, but just turned his head and smiled at the girl in the pink skirt: "This sword, presumably the junior sister can't look down on it, right?"
The girl smiled and shook her head.
"In this case, you should keep this sword for yourself, but I modified the magic circle for you just now, and it can be regarded as doing some work, so it's not too much to charge some labor fees, right?" Bai Ze said with a smile.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Of course it's not too much, then these 1,000 spirit stones are good even if they are my labor fees for guests?"
"Then what's so embarrassing?" Bai Ze said, stretched out his hand and honestly accepted the spirit stone, and smiled at the woman in the pink skirt: "Senior sister, let's go to the front and have a look!"
