Chapter 34: Runic Paper
Resisting the final impulse, Zhou Nan first sandwiched a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth.
As soon as the pastry popped into his mouth, he didn't have time to chew it, but it exploded and turned into a cold torrent, trickling into his abdomen, and then quickly spreading to his whole body.
In an instant, Zhou Nan only felt that his mouth was full of incense, his whole body was comfortable, his mind was sober, and he was very happy.
Ignoring the reaction of the little guy on the side, Meimei enjoyed it for a while, Zhou Nan nodded with satisfaction, picked up the wine again, and took a sip.
The wine is very sweet, not at all as spicy as when you first drink it, like a clear spring, mixed with a strong mellow aroma, refreshing the heart. With pastries, it is a must. One dry and one wet, cross-used, complement each other. It's just that all of a sudden, Zhou Nan fell in love with this unusual taste.
Without stopping the chopsticks, Zhou Nan tasted the vegetarian dish again.
This dish is made with fresh ingredients and has an excellent taste. What's more, after only eating two small bites, Zhou Nan felt a trace of heat in his abdomen. I started the exercises and refined them slightly.
After a while, he noticed that his mana had increased by a little. It's not much, but it's real, and there's not the slightest hint of falsehood.
Such an effect is like taking an elixir. It's just that the medicinal power of this vegetarian dish is very mild, and it can't compare to the domineering efficacy of the pill. But the advantage is that it can last, unlike taking too much pills, which will cause drug resistance, which is not conducive to one's own cultivation. It's kind of like the role of food supplements. It's just that taking it for a long time is a bit wasteful, and the cost is also very large, which is really worth the loss.
The meat is delicious, the cooking process is excellent, the tenderness of the meat is not damaged in the slightest, and the chewing is full of strength. This is the first time Zhou Nan has eaten demon beast meat, compared to rabbit meat, beef, not only has a sense of novelty, this taste is far better.
Eating and eating, Zhou Nan couldn't help but think that he didn't seem to have seen a demon beast before, so he ate the demon beast meat first. True to the old saying, I have never seen a pig run, I have never eaten pork? His current situation is the best portrayal of this sentence.
Seeing that the immortal chief in front of him was eating so happily, the little maid rolled his eyes and said while the iron was hot, "Immortal Chief, the night market in our Qinghuofang City is a must, do you want to go and see it?"
Hearing this, Zhou Nan stopped his chopsticks, squinted his eyes, and said lightly: "Let's talk about it." ”
There is drama in the obedience, and the little guy hurriedly said: "The night market in Qinghuofang City has three uniques, black shooting, long eyes, and changing plates. The black auction is that the seller takes out the things he wants to sell to the buyer first, and then the buyer secretly writes his psychological price, and the seller selects the most suitable transaction price, and then secretly trades. There is no information between buyers and sellers, and the transaction is very safe, so you don't have to worry about being targeted by someone with a heart.
Long-eyed is that at night of each market, merchants will put out some strange things in large quantities, and buyers will buy with long-eyed eyes, whether they lose or win, all depend on the luck of their vision, so they are called long-eyed.
The best thing is this change of plate. The first two may be available in other markets, but this change of plate is unique to Qinghuofang City. First of all, a large merchant will list many goods, and then those who want to buy the above things will take out the corresponding value of things, or spirit stones, pills, and magic weapons.
Then, all the merchandise was served separately on a plate that was insulated from divine thoughts. Then use the merchant to control the plate with the formation to do irregular movements. If the buyer has good eyes, flexible application of mana, and is familiar with the way of formation, he can use the plate with spirit stones in his hand to quickly exchange for what he wants in the formation. But the value of the goods is different. If you can't play it, you will often spend a lot of money and buy things that you don't need. But there are also masters, who can exchange very little value for high-value things. ”
After listening to a large part of the little guy's statement, Zhou Nan felt that this night market was very interesting and decided to go around. Then he paid for the meal and left the inn.
Until Zhou Nan walked away, the little guy didn't get a reward again, and he felt very angry. Although Zhou Nan noticed this, he didn't say much. This meal cost him ten spirit stones, which was enough to buy a spirit pill. Just thinking about this, Zhou Nan felt that he couldn't eat this kind of meal often, otherwise, he would have to go bankrupt.
In this way, the salary of the little guy is geometric, and he has an approximate amount in his heart. It's a good thing that the little guy wants to give a reward, but it's too greedy to be a good thing. Zhou Nan is not a big money, but he will not keep rewarding for the so-called face. There should be a degree to everything, and he knows it well.
Got out of the inn and walked down the street. On both sides of the road, there will be a tall stone pillar at intervals, which is inlaid with a large luminous stone, which exudes a faint halo for lighting.
Luminous stone is a rare mineral, and in the mortal world, it is a tribute to the royal family and is very valuable. But in the world of cultivating immortals, this kind of thing that is not useful in the middle, except for decorative lighting, has little value, so on both sides of the road, there are many luminous stones.
This also reflects the difference between the world of cultivating immortals and the world. The world of cultivating immortals pays attention to making the best use of things, but the world is more likely to be deceived by the appearance of things and stick to the appearance. This is a huge gap between the realm and the horizon, which basically cannot be filled and communicated.
Along the way, Zhou Nan stopped and looked, looking at the things in front of him from time to time. When he encounters something strange and interesting, he will stop, take a closer look, ask about the price, the role. But most of them just look at it and don't buy it.
For Zhou Nan, there is not much missing now. He bought a lot of pills, enough for him to cultivate to the seventh level of Qiling. Magic weapons, he has upper, middle and lower grades. As for alchemy and formations, he didn't want to dabble in them yet. After all, the time of a disciple during the Enlightenment Period is limited, and too much distraction is not conducive to cultivation.
Although the disciples of the Enlightenment Period have a hundred years of life. But it's still not much better than mortals. If you can't build a foundation before the age of fifty and can't become a foundation building monk, then you can only die in the enlightenment period in this life, and there is no hope of breaking through.
After the age of fifty, the human body's functions decline, and building a foundation is to build a foundation and truly open the road to cultivating immortals. This foundation includes the two major aspects of the soul and the body, both of which are indispensable. The physical body declines, and the foundation is hopeless. Therefore, no matter what, Zhou Nan will not do such a stupid thing as self-destructing his future for other things.
Stopping in front of a small stall, Zhou Nan picked up a piece of rune paper and looked at it carefully. After seeing the wonderful use of rune paper on the little fat man, he wanted to get a few, and now that he saw it, he was ready to stop and take a look.
Holding the talisman paper, Zhou Nan looked at the stall owner, who was a female cultivator about twenty years old, with an average appearance, wearing a light blue costume, with no marks on the clothes, and could not tell the origin. If you don't change your clothes to hide, it's a casual practice.
"What kind of talisman is this, and how to sell it?" Zhou Nan asked lightly.
The female cultivator waited for several hours, but there was no business coming to the door, and when she suddenly saw Zhou Nan asking, her eyes lit up, and she said anxiously: "Fellow Daoist, this is a wooden rattan talisman of the lower grade of the wood system, as long as there are three spirit stones, if you buy a few more, I can count it cheaper." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Nan didn't answer, but continued to watch from the stall.
There are not many things on the stall, and there are more than a dozen kinds of rune paper of various colors, but most of them are middle and lower grades of the yellow order. In addition, there were a dozen blank rune papers, a few brushes, a large box of cinnabar, and a thick book.
"What's the matter with these blank runes, do you still know how to make talismans?" After looking at it for a while, Zhou Nan asked curiously.
"Let Daoyou smile, the concubine is just a beginner, not a talisman, what do Daoyou want to buy?"
After thinking about his needs, Zhou Nan pointed to the stall and said slowly, "Do Daoists only have these runes? ”
Hearing the meaning of Zhou Nan's words, the female cultivator gritted her teeth and said quickly: "If Daoyou really wants high-grade rune paper, there is one of the concubines, but it is a little broken. But I promise, it must be a high-grade rune paper, and the value is not small, do you still want to see it?"
Originally, Zhou Nan didn't have much hope, just asked casually, he had done this many times along the way, but he didn't expect it to be really dramatic, "Oh, if Daoyou has any rune paper, just take it out, as long as the thing is good, the spirit stone is not a problem." ”
Hearing Zhou Nan's words, the nun carefully took out a large mahogany box from her arms, held it in her hand, hesitated, and slowly handed it to Zhou Nan.
Looking at the female cultivator's reluctant expression, Zhou Nan smiled and didn't care. just casually took the box and opened a gap casually.
But then he just swept his eyes, and he quickly closed the box. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly put away his nonchalant expression, and his face instantly became solemn.
