The little old man wiped his tears and said: "Girl, thank you for your kindness. But I can't let you pay. I consider myself unlucky!"
The woman reached for the purse on her waist and looked like she really wanted to pay for the elixir.
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly, someone spoke to stop him, it was Wu Bei. ??
The woman, the little old man, and the tall man with a yellow beard all looked at Wu Bei.
Wu Bei smiled and said, "Can you show me the elixir?"
The big man with a yellow beard stared at him and asked, "Do you want to buy it?"
Wu Bei: "Yes, I came here just to buy elixirs."
The big man with a yellow beard asked: "My elixir is worth five thousand immortal coins. Do you have money?"
Wu Bei said with a smile: "If it is a good elixir, let alone five thousand, I want fifty thousand too."
The big man with a yellow beard nodded and handed the bottle in his hand to Wu Bei.
Wu Bei opened the cork of the bottle and just smelled it, and he knew that the elixir was fake. The elixir had the fragrance in the air, but in fact there was only some powder on the surface. This kind of counterfeiting method is not very clever, but it can deceive most people.
monk.
He handed the bottle back to the other party and said, "The elixir is good."
The big man with a yellow beard looked proud and said: "How about it, do you want to buy it for five thousand?"
The woman quickly said: "Didn't you say three thousand just now? Why do you want five thousand now?"
The big man with a yellow beard snorted: "This thing belongs to me. I can price it as much as I want. Do you have any control over it?"
The woman's pretty face turned red with anger, but she couldn't say anything to refute.
Wu Beidao said: "Girl, this elixir is worth at least five thousand. It is impossible for you to buy it for three thousand."
The woman glared at him angrily, as if to say: Did I ask you?
Wu Bei pretended not to see it and continued to ask the little old man: "Old man, is this elixir really an heirloom of your family?"
The little old man nodded: "Yes, it has been passed down for three generations, and it has been hundreds of years! If you are not in a hurry for money,
, I won’t sell it no matter what!”
Wu Bei sighed and said, "It's over!"
Everyone was startled, and even the woman couldn't help but ask: "What's over?"
Wu Bei: "Among the medicinal materials for refining the Beidou Refining Pill, there is 'Hundred Immortal Grass'. This Herbaceous Grass is a good medicine, but the elixir refined with it has a short validity period, usually only three years. The elixir is stored
If the time exceeds three years, the medicinal properties of the elixir will disappear and turn into poison."
As soon as these words came out, the woman's heart moved and she said, "You said this elixir has failed?"
Wu Bei nodded: "The old man has said that if the elixir has been stored for hundreds of years, it must be useless and has no value. Therefore, the old man actually made a profit by selling this elixir for a thousand immortal coins."
The little old man's eyes were dull, and then he jumped to his feet and said: "You are talking nonsense! Beidou Form Refining Pill will not work at all!"
The big man with a yellow beard also said sternly: "You don't understand anything, so stop talking nonsense here!"
Wu Bei looked at him and said, "I'm telling the truth."
There were many people watching the excitement around. When they saw this, they all understood what was going on and shook their heads and left.
No matter how smart the woman was, she still saw that these two people were liars. She gave the little old man and the big man with a yellow beard a cold look, and said coldly: "Liars!"
The big man with a yellow beard was angry. He stared at Wu Bei and said in a cold voice: "Boy, you are meddling in other people's business, or you may lose your life!"
Wu Bei said lightly: "You can try."
After saying that, they continued to walk up, leaving the two of them gnashing their teeth in place. If Lingxi Island had no rules and no fighting was allowed on the island, they would have taken action against Wu Bei!
The woman quickly caught up with her and said, "Master, please stay!"
Wu Bei stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"
The woman saluted her: "Thank you, Master, for your words, otherwise I would have been defrauded of thousands of immortal coins by them."
Wu Bei: "It's a small thing, not worth mentioning."
Woman: "Young Master, my name is Zhou Aojun. I have met the Young Master."
Wu Bei: "I am Wu Bei. Will Miss Zhou go up the mountain to buy elixirs?"
Zhou Aojun nodded: "Yes, Mr. Wu. My practice has reached a bottleneck. I need to buy some pills to take. I hope it can help me break through the realm."
Wu Bei: "Miss Zhou practiced her Qi to enter the evil state?"
Zhou Aojun nodded: "Young master, you have good eyesight. I have been stagnant in the Evil Realm for two years."
Wu Bei: "Seven levels of evil, eight levels of Xuanmen. It is indeed difficult to break through this Xuanmen realm. I don't know how many extremely talented people are stuck at this step. Moreover, I am afraid that there is no elixir that the girl wants here."
Zhou Aojun looked sad and said: "I know it too, but I don't want to give up, so I just want to give it a try."
Wu Beidao: "You are right, maybe you are lucky enough to meet him."
So the three of them walked together. After walking a few hundred steps up the mountain, Wu Bei's nose suddenly twitched twice, and then he turned and walked to the left.
There was a stall not far away. The stall owner was a blind man, with black eyes and skin like old tree bark. His left hand was also broken off at the wrist, and his face looked like it had gone through vicissitudes of life. There was a stone table in front of him, and on the stone table
There are three jade bottles placed.
Wu Beidao: "Excuse me, what kind of elixirs are in these three bottles?"
The blind old man said: "I don't know them either. A few months ago, I found them with my keen sense of smell."
Wu Bei: "Can I see the elixir inside?"
"No." The blind old man refused flatly, "Ten thousand cents per bottle. If you want to buy it, give me the money."
Liu Jinlong couldn't help but said: "How can there be no reason to sell something without showing it?"
The blind old man said coldly: "I am blind and my cultivation level is not high, but my sense of smell will not deceive me. These bottles of elixirs should not be simple. In addition, I don't understand elixirs, so I have no way of knowing their value. Since
If that’s the case, then just offer a price and take it if you want to buy it. If you don’t want to buy it, please leave.”
Zhou Aojun: "What if your elixir is not valuable, then wouldn't the person who bought it lose money?"
The blind old man said: "If the elixir you bought is very valuable, doesn't it mean you have made a profit? Whether you lose or make a profit depends entirely on luck. Isn't this fair?"
Wu Bei smiled and said: "Fair enough."
After saying that, he happily took out fifteen thousand immortal coins and put them on the stone table, saying: "This is fifteen thousand immortal coins. I want all three bottles. I want to try my luck."
The old man reached out and touched the immortal coins, then put them all into his pocket and said, "They belong to you."
After getting the jade bottle, Wu Bei opened one directly. He smelled it, nodded slightly, and then put it away again.
The blind old man raised his head, his hollow eyes seemed to be looking at Wu Bei, and asked: "Sir, did you lose or make a profit?"
Wu Beidao: "I should make a profit from this bottle."
The blind old man laughed and said, "It seems I'm lucky." After saying that, he drifted away very happily.
Zhou Aojun asked curiously: "Sir, what kind of elixir is inside?"
Wu Beidao: "A kind of elixir that is effective for magical monks."
Zhou Aojun was very happy for Wu Bei and said: "Congratulations, young master!"
Wu Bei then sat down behind the stone table, opened the other two bottles and took a look. After looking at them, he placed the three bottles on the stone table again.
Zhou Aojun asked curiously: "Master, what are you doing?"
Wu Bei smiled and said: "Selling elixirs!"
