Chapter 22 Forced Buying
When the pattern of Yangcheng is rich in the east and expensive in the west, the south is cheap and the north is poor, Baicaotang is located in the east of the city, and the city lord's mansion is located in the west of the city, and the two places are far apart, and it was already an hour later when Liu He arrived at Baicaotang.
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw that there were really a lot of people gathered at the door, a ragged young man was looking at a book, he turned the book very fast, but in the end he just sighed and shook his head.
The person in front of him frowned, "This is already the top-level mental method, and its value is only higher than your Lingzhi, you have to think clearly!"
"This mental method is indeed more advanced than any mental method I have ever seen, but it is only a secret book of martial arts for mortals, so ...... I'm sorry. ”
The man snorted coldly, turned around and left, just in time to see Liu He walking down from the car.
"Coincidentally, I didn't expect Brother Zhang to be here!" Liu He smiled.
The young man known as "Brother Zhang" arched his hand unnaturally, "Zhang didn't expect to meet Brother Liu here, isn't Brother Liu also here for Lingzhi?"
"Exactly, it's actually not me, it's the old man, haha, it seems that Brother Zhang is returning in vain!"
When the young man surnamed Zhang heard that this thing was actually favored by the city lord, his expression suddenly changed, if it was something that Liu He fancied, he might still be able to compete, but what the city lord fancied, others would not want to get involved again.
However, as soon as he thought of Qin Yu's difficulty, a sly smile flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"Since it is something that the city lord fancies, it is inconvenient for my Zhang family to interfere, but don't blame Zhang for not reminding you, this person's Lingzhi only changes exercises, and my Zhang family's family heirloom exercises have not been able to satisfy the other party!"
"What!" Liu He was taken aback, the Zhang family is also a famous family in Dangyang City, and the family exercises have always been passed on, so he understands the value of Chang Jingzhi, no wonder his grandfather will value it so much, and at the same time he feels that things are a little tricky.
When the crowd saw the logo of Liu He's carriage, there was a small commotion, they may not know Liu He, but they knew the logo on the car, only the people of the Liu family in the city lord's mansion were qualified to use such a logo.
The person who accompanied Liu He was the old butler of the City Lord's Mansion, Fu Bo, who picked up the lingzhi and looked at it for a while, and nodded at him.
Liu He was immediately relieved, and asked with a smile: "Friend, how do you sell this Ganoderma lucidum?"
Qin Yu had already heard the three words of the City Lord's Mansion from the crowd before, and knew that the nobleman was coming, so he immediately got up and said, "Change the Dao Gate Exercises." ”
"Daomen Exercises!"
Liu Wanshan is an outer disciple of the Immortal Xuanzong, and as his grandfather's favorite grandson, he is naturally no stranger to these, but even he himself is not qualified to learn them.
"This idea is a bit whimsical, as far as I know, that kind of exercise will not be passed on, I buy it with a lot of money, how about it?"
Qin Yu was very disappointed and shook his head: "Money is indeed the most precious thing for many people, but for me, it is useless! ”
said this to make the other party retreat, but Liu He understood that three thousand taels was too little, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he reported a number.
"Five thousand taels!"
Qin Yu shook his head.
"Ten thousand taels!"
Qin Yu still shook his head.
Liu He gritted his teeth, his eyes as if they were about to erupt into flames.
"Ten thousand taels!"
Qin Yu looked at him in surprise, Liu He's face turned red when he reported this number, 10,000 taels of gold! enough to buy the next half of the street! The people around him were in an uproar.
But he still shook his head.
Liu He laughed angrily, "Okay, okay! Don't blame me for not reminding you, this is Dangyang City!"
"What's the matter? The dignified city lord's mansion still wants to buy and sell forcefully?"
"So what?" Liu He took a step forward, grabbed his collar and lifted it, Qin Yu frowned, just thinking about whether to give the other party an over-the-shoulder fall or something, a big hand was already pressed on the other party's hand, it was the old butler.
Liu He still respects this housekeeper who has followed Liu Wanshan for decades.
"Fauber, you ......"
"Let's go, don't forget who you are!"
Liu He glanced at the crowd around him, and seemed to look at him with a playful look, if he really dared to do it, I am afraid that the next day it would become a joke in Dangyang City.
Liu He was very depressed, and returned home in a gloomy manner, Liu Wanshan had already guessed seven points when he saw his expression, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
"Didn't get it done?"
"Yes, it's a little beggar who sells things, about ten years old, grandfather, grandson has already bid 10,000 taels of gold, but he still doesn't sell. ”
"Oh?" Liu Wanshan was also a little surprised, "So, what exactly does he want?"
"Daomen Exercises!"
"Ridiculous!"
Liu Wanshan swept his sleeves, groaned for a moment, and shouted to the door: "Prepare the car, I'll go and see it myself!"
In the evening, the people gradually dispersed, Qin Yu sighed and put away the Ganoderma lucidum, and at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Wait!"
Qin Yu looked up and saw that an old man appeared in front of him, his hair was meticulously combed, and he had a majestic momentum, he couldn't help but stop and asked, "Uncle, are you interested in my Lingzhi?" ”
This person is Liu Wanshan, he looked at Qin Yu, no matter how he looked at it, there was nothing special, and he felt a little relieved in his heart.
"Little friend, do you know that not everyone can learn this technique?"
Qin Yu was stunned, he really didn't know this.
"In this world, there is a group of transcendent mortals, known as immortals, who have the ability to turn the world and the sea, this is true, but there are countless mortals, but there are very few immortals, I guess you accidentally saw the miracles of immortals, and your heart yearns, right?"
Qin Yu nodded,
"That's it, immortals are also human beings in nature, but they do what people can't do, so they become immortals, but not everyone is qualified to become immortals, and the first choice is the spiritual root. ”
"Linggen?
"I don't know, I just know that it is a necessary condition to become an immortal, the spiritual roots are strange, there are thousands of them, even if you have a spiritual root, you must also have exercises suitable for the cultivation of the spiritual root, if it is not suitable, it will backfire, and going mad is the ultimate destination. ”
These words startled Qin Yu, he didn't expect that cultivating immortals would be so exquisite.
"I, Liu Wanshan, if you transfer this Lingzhi to me, I will promise you a request, as long as I can, I will never regret it!"
"Liu Wanshan, such a familiar name...... Ahh......h
"Yes, when you are the Lord of Yang City, you are me."
Qin Yu couldn't help but feel excited, this was something that the overlord of one party had promised. As long as he nods, he will have no worries about food and clothing from now on, and he will even immediately become the upper class of Dangyang City.
However, the thought of the tragic death of his family made his heart feel like a pinprick.
He took a deep breath and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I can't promise you!"
The smile on Liu Wanshan's face suddenly froze, he can achieve today's position, and he is naturally a person with extraordinary means, no one has disobeyed him for a long time, I remember the last time someone dared to say no to him, it was more than 20 years ago, that person was twisted by his own hands.
His smile gradually retracted, and a murderous intent flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"That being the case, then ......"
"Master, master!" A person rushed over on a fast horse, with an indescribable panicked expression, and when he arrived in front of Liu Wanshan, he grabbed the reins of the horse, and the horse neighed, and his front hooves were raised high, and he stood steadily. The man on the horse turned over and dismounted, and whispered a few words to Liu Wanshan.
Liu Wanshan's complexion changed suddenly, and he no longer paid attention to Qin Yu, and rode away.
"Keep an eye on him! I'll be right after. ”
The man nodded, and looked at the little beggar in front of him with an unkind face.
Qin Yu glanced at him a few times, and saw that he was slender, his muscles seemed to be loose, but his temples were high, this was a sign that only a master of the inner family had a person, such a person, he asked himself if he was an opponent.
Liu Wanshan hurriedly returned to the mansion, rushed inward in a panic, and as soon as he approached the hall, he saw a short and fat old man sitting peacefully in the hall, drinking tea by himself.
"Master! The apprentice didn't know that the master was coming, and he was disappointed!"
The short and fat old man looked like he was in his early fifties, but he was called a master by Liu Wanshan, who was over eighty years old, he raised his eyes and glanced at Liu Wanshan, and snorted: "You have a lot of ability, you dare to let you wait for you!"
"Don't dare, Master, the apprentice left for the sake of your old man's business, next month is your old man's birthday, I just learned that someone in the city sells three hundred years of Changjing Zhi, so I want to buy it and give it to your old man. ”
The short and fat old man squirted out a sip of tea, stood up with a pout, his eyes lit up, "What!
"Yes, yes, Master, come with me!"
The two of them galloped away on fast horses, provoking the people who didn't know why.
On the way, Liu Wanshan explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, and when the short and fat old man heard that the other party actually wanted the Daomen exercises, he said angrily: "You let the donkey kick your brain?
The disciple thought the same thing, but at that time, someone happened to summon you, saying that you were old, so the disciple came to see you first. ”
"Shouting, so it's the teacher's mistake?"
"No, no, no, the disciple didn't mean that, ah! It's the front, Master, you see, it's that kid. ”
The short and fat old man flew down when he was still more than ten zhang away from Qin Yu, landed steadily in front of him, and grabbed Chang Jingzhi.
"Hahaha, it's really a three-hundred-year-old Changjingzhi, it's exactly what I need, this trip is really worth it!"
Qin Yu was really shocked by the old man's kung fu flying around, and when he heard him say this, he hurriedly gathered his thoughts, "Uncle, this thing only changes the Dao Gate exercises, you see ......"
The short and fat old man glared at him coldly, Qin Yu only felt a loud bang in his brain, and the person collapsed to the ground, with only one thought in his mind.
"Strong! incomparably strong!"
"If you want to enter the Daomen, you must first understand the rules, there is no right or wrong in the cultivation world, the strong are respected, today, the old man will give the first lesson first!"
After saying this, the short and fat old man turned and left.
"Amitabha! How is the benefactor's behavior different from that of a robber?"
I don't know when, the old monk stood behind Qin Yu.
The short and fat old man frowned, and when he saw that it was a monk, he sneered, "Bald donkey, don't be nosy." ”
The old monk shook his head, glared at the other party in the same way, the short and fat old man snorted, his body shook and shook, and his eyes were shocked.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but no sound came out.
"The younger generation doesn't know that the seniors are here, and it's a lot of offense. ”
"It is not the poor monk who offends the benefactor, but the little benefactor. ”
The short and fat old man glanced at Qin Yu, and he didn't know what kind of shit luck this kid had, but he was actually protected by a master, so he asked, "Master, what is the relationship between him and you?"
"It doesn't matter, it's just that the road is uneven. ”
"Okay, I'll talk to this little brother. ”
The short and fat old man waved his sleeves, his face instantly became amiable, and he smiled: "Little brother, how can you sell this Lingzhi?"
Qin Yu didn't know what was going on, but the two of them also knew that they had a silent exchange, and snorted, "Only change the Dao Sect Technique." ”
The short and fat old man held back the anger in his heart, and still said kindly: "In this way, I have three Yuan Wudan here." Make sure you eat one to strengthen your body and bones, and use them to buy your Ganoderma lucidum, okay?"
"Not for sale!"
"Plus this spirit rune, it can save your life at a critical time! Buy your Lingzhi. ”
"Not for sale!"
"You don't want to toast, eat and drink, I'll add this fire-avoiding golden silk robe! Do you sell it, or don't you sell it?"
Qin Yu stared at his eyes and said loudly, "I don't sell!"
The short and fat old man wanted to slap this guy to death.
"Amitabha, if the donor can't meet the request of this little donor, then please go back. ”
The short and fat old man's face sank, and he said in a low voice: "Master, you should know the truth that the exercises are not passed on, this kid is clearly a stunned young man, and he is a disciple of the Lower Immortal Xuanmen, and I hope that the master will be convenient." ”
"Hehe, since the little donor refuses to teach, the donor must have nothing to do with this thing, Amitabha. ”
The short and fat old man held back his anger, snorted heavily, and brushed his sleeves away.
Qin Yu watched their backs walk across the street corner, and then bowed to the old monk: "Thank you, master." ”
"Don't be polite, the poor monk helped for a while, but he couldn't help for a lifetime, the donor is good for himself!"
