Text 86 Phantom Mountains and Seas Chenlantai (II)
To say that this illusory mountain and sea market, in fact, the earlier sages recorded, but this sea market rose in the poor mountains and wilderness, and there is no trace, not detected by ordinary people or even ordinary monks, over time, it was mistaken by everyone for an overseas illusion, it is also strange, this sea market is not easy to be detected by outsiders here, but it is always a shadow and shadow appeared elsewhere, so such a noisy market scene is often regarded as a fairy mountain mirage to form an illusion.
Li Jingliu and the two entered the sea market at this time, only to see a male city rising from the ground, during which the eaves of the palace were mixed with structures, the columns were heavy, orderly, and all of them were possessed. The trees beside the road, as if shrouded in the clouds, intermittently, appear and disappear from time to time, how to look at it, there is really a fairyland scene in the painting.
And there are countless stalls arranged between the buildings, the stalls are full of treasures, and the treasures are horizontal, although those stall owners are dressed in plain clothes, but the color of the reflection of the clouds alone can be seen that it must be of great value. Except for the main road, there is hardly any space between the entire sea market, and most of them are occupied by the shops of merchants. And some of the buildings glittering golden signboards, such as the Treasure Pavilion, the Barter Pavilion is also looming in the clouds.
"Please also ask the donor to follow the little monk, there are a lot of people in the market, if you are separated, it is not easy to find it. When the little monk arrived at the sea market, he suddenly put on a serious face, as if he couldn't find a good baby if he wasn't serious, but the traces of tears before were still hanging on his face, and the serious face he forcibly pretended to be at this time was really not good-looking.
Li Jingliu looked at him like that, wanted to laugh but was afraid that he would cry, and took out the furoshiki that he didn't know what to wrap before, and handed it to the little monk: "Wipe your face before you speak." ”
The little monk was stunned for a moment, and saw that the wrapper was really dirty and ugly, so he endured it, pulled his dirty sleeves stained with mud and wiped his face, then turned around, and without looking at Li Jingliu, he led the way forward.
"Hey, little monk, my name is Li Jingliu, you also have a name, I can't always call you little monk, right?"
The little monk ignored him, and quickly walked forward by himself, for a long time, and did not turn his head: "The common name is Tan Lantai." ”
Li Jingliu followed the little monk and admired the scenery of this sea market all the way. I have to say that if this sea market is a city in the world, it must be a prosperous scene. Those high and low buildings are arranged in layers between the sea market, but they do not look cluttered, but just the right amount of light from the outside world, and between the shadows of high-rise buildings, there are scattered and dotted with some small stalls, and there are always one or two plants and trees around the stalls, and under the shade, the city is full of people.
After a while, the two of them came to a tall building, and the gilded signboard Lingxin Pavilion on the second floor was glowing with luxury in the sun, and at a glance, they knew that the noble land here should not be affordable by a poor ghost like Li Jingliu, and it seemed that this little monk had a bit of a meaning to let Li Jingliu go bankrupt to avenge his personal revenge.
Li Jingliu looked at the building, and suddenly said, "Can this family fight it?" Do you think I can beat it?"
The little monk bit his lip, choked for a moment, and said, "You said you would compensate me." ”
Li Jingliu only felt that this monk was becoming more and more sissy: "I didn't say that I wouldn't pay for it, but if I can't afford it, do you think I can use anything else to offset it?"
"I don't care, you have to pay me, you said it. As he spoke, the little monk's eyes turned red, and he seemed to be about to cry again.
"Okay, okay, the money is not enough, the uncle sells himself here to lose money for you, okay, you can do it, take back the tears." "Li Jingliu saw this sissy monk's head as big as a fight, how could any man cry at every turn!
When the little monk saw that he agreed, he twisted his body and walked towards the Lingxin Pavilion. The interior of the Lingxin Pavilion is really worthy of the golden signboard outside, and when you enter the door, you can see countless treasures on the left and right sides. The large coral tree of one person tall in the East China Sea is carved into the shape of a red dragon, coiled by the door, and the counters on both sides are full of these countless treasures, and the faint fragrance seems to come from the feet, which is the sunrise jade of Li Mountain's specialty, which is not very clear, but it is full of the aroma of grass and trees. Further on, there was a small staircase, made of unknown material, but it looked unusual, and it led straight to the second floor.
is so magnificent, Li Jingliu is almost ashamed to step in. But he still walked in with the little monk, and as soon as he entered the door, he was greeted by a guy, who was wearing a blue short clip dust shelter, and then compared with the two people at the door who were covered with mud between their sleeves due to a fight, and many of them were damaged, no matter how they looked, it looked like they asked Hanako to come to the door to ask for money.
Fortunately, the general large merchants, the basic hospitality is still understood, this guy did not show a cold face because of the two of them in rags, but greeted them with enthusiasm, and said: "Two, what do you want to see?"
Li Jingliu couldn't help but laugh a little, what is the celebration of the death of her husband? It's still the tenth anniversary? I think so, but after all, he still remembers his business, so he straightened his colors and said, "What do you guys have here...... What's it called?" Li Jingliu forgot the words as he spoke, and turned to the little monk for help.
"Phantom body wishes. ”
"Yo~ This is a coincidence, this phantom body Ruyi happened to be a big shopkeeper in my house the day before yesterday, although this Ruyi is just a treasure, but the effect must be known to this guest officer, very interesting, right? The guest officer will follow me up to the second floor to have a look?"
"Walking. ”
While leading the way, the guy was not idle, and kept introducing his shop to Li Jingliu: "Guest officer, look, our floor is an ordinary treasure in the world, although it is not of great use to a monk like you, but it is also good to buy it back and send it to your sweetheart, you see that rare golden Dongzhu, so big, so round, take it back to make a headdress will definitely win the heart of your beloved~" The guy saw that Li Jingliu ignored him, and then introduced the goods on the second floor.
"It's okay if you're not interested in the ordinary goods on the first floor, the essence of our Lingxin Pavilion is on the second floor, they are all carefully created by the masters of the cultivation realm, but they are all things that only a monk like you can figure out, let alone touch ordinary people like me, I feel that the treasure is close to the eyes of people even when I look at it!" Speaking of the phantom body Ruyi, that Ruyi can have matching earrings, made of South China Sea Marble, the spirit of the ever-changing tanuki is attached, as soon as you wear it, and then match the phantom body Ruyi, which one do you want to change, I don't even recognize his father and mother, do you want to take a look?"
"Let's take a look at the phantom body first. Are you really an ordinary person? I don't look like it?" The guy was wearing a dust-proof suit, and he said all kinds of supernatural things to the Tao, and he really didn't look like an ordinary person.
"Hey, when the guest officer is overhauling like this, what do you do with me, let's take a look at the goods first. As he spoke, the man quickly took out a wooden box wrapped in red flannel from the counter and opened it, but it was the exquisite and clear phantom body Ruyi.
"Can you try it?"
"You try, that's it...... If it is damaged, it will be compensated according to the price. ”
Li Jingliu picked up Ruyi, a slight coolness from the palm of his hand to the bottom of his heart, he poured some aura into the Ruyi, and then, the Ruyi lit up slightly, Li Jingliu became the appearance of a guy on the side, and the Ruyi angle turned again, and there were two little monks standing on the ground.
"Yes, yes, it's like this, right?" Li Jingliu showed the wishful thinking to the little monk.
The little monk frowned slightly and said, "The patterns are different." ”
"Ouch, this little master, such treasures are all handmade by the master, how can there be two pieces that are exactly the same? I dare to pack the ticket, they must have the same effect, if there is a slight difference, you come to smash my signboard." ”
The little monk thought for a moment: "Okay." Then he looked at Li Jingliu: "Pay." ”
"How much?"
"200,000 lower grade spirit stones, if you can give a high-grade spirit stone, the small shop can give you half a cheaper. ”
The common currency in the cultivation realm is the spirit stone, which is immersed in the spiritual veins and develops, during which a large amount of spiritual energy is stored, which can be used as both a cultivation prop and a currency in the cultivation realm. One hundred lower-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a medium-grade spirit stone, and one hundred medium-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a high-grade spirit stone, in fact, the exchange ratio is different every year and every month.
Li Jingliu was slightly embarrassed to touch the void ring, there were thousands of poor spirit stones shrunk inside, not even a corner was enough...... So, he said, "Do you collect spirit grass or anything like that? My spirit stone doesn't seem to be enough." ”
"Accept it, you come with me. The guy still had a warm face, and took Li Jingliu to a small corner on the second floor, but a door suddenly appeared in the corner.
"You enter through this door, there are people inside who specialize in buying spirit grass, and the small ones are waiting for you here. ”
Li Jingliu pushed the door in, but he didn't expect that the small door could contain such a large space, there were three horizontal wooden tables on the left, middle and right sides of the small door, and there were three white-eyebrow old men sitting behind them, and there was a sign in front of the old man on the right, with the four characters of Lingcao trading on it.
"Well, senior, I have something here that I want you to see. ”
"Don't grind, take it out quickly, have you talked so much lately? Yes, that means you, why haven't you taken it out yet? Waiting for my old man to come forward and take it out in person?"
Li Jingliu hurriedly took out a group of spirit grasses, he originally only wanted to take out a few, after the old man's urging, his hands shook, but he took out a handful, a handful of spirit grasses glowed with spiritual light, shining in his hands.
The old man grabbed his hand, rescued the spirit grass that he was holding tightly in his hand, and said, "If you don't take the spirit grass like this, it will lose its value, do you know it? The loss of value is not only bad for you, but also bad for the spirit grass, do you have the heart to cherish nature? Are the recent little monks like this? Our cultivation realm is really going to end!?"
"Senior, I'm sorry...... I was wrong......"
"What's the use of knowing now that you're wrong? Can you convert back the loss of the previous spirit grass? Those spirit grass's original swaggering and stretched forms were pinched by you, and they can't be sold for a good price at all, do you have a brain? Do you know how to cherish it?"
"Senior...... Why don't you estimate the price?" Li Jingliu will understand, this white-eyebrow old man is talking a bunch of things, and some of them are just to reduce the value of his spirit grass.
The white-eyed old man carefully stretched out the spirit grass, carefully observed it, and said: "Two spirit rhino incense, a pair of black jade roots, three delay grasses, and a handful of wind sand grass...... Ah, will you mow the grass, how can you count the ones that were originally pinched into a ball by you? If this thing is not made into pills, which store will you see to accept you?" The old man studied it for a while, and finally stated: "A handful of them, regardless of the original price, after the loss, you will be counted as 50,000 yuan." ”
