Chapter Forty-Five: Budai Street

"The mountain is closed in heavy fog?" Xuan Ye didn't know that there was something else going on.

Seeing Xuan Ye's confused face, the monk in red immediately laughed: "Junior brother, this must be my first time here. I don't know that there are many monsters and beasts in the Diming Mountains, and it is even more dangerous when the fog rises. So it's a good idea to go into the mountains with us.

There is no need to take care of you."

"That's right, that's right. I just don't know where my junior brother comes from. Does anyone know him?"

Xuan Ye always felt uneasy and well-intentioned when he saw the two people's smooth talk, but he did know very little about the Diming Mountain Range. If he could get some information from the two of them, he would immediately clasp his fists and say.

"I come from the Bi Ling Sect and came here to practice. Please give me some advice from my two senior brothers."

The yellow-clothed monk's expression changed, and he frowned and asked, "Bi Ling Sect? Have you heard of it?"

The monk in red shook his head and asked, "How is your junior brother's cultivation?"

"The late stage of transformation." Xuan Ye answered.

"The cultivation level is barely qualified, but where does this spiritual sect come from? Is it some barren land?" The monk in red murmured to himself, and suddenly smiled: "Junior brother, come with us, the team is over there

.”

Xuan Ye looked at the crowd in the distance. Most of them were gathered together in twos and threes, some wearing the same sect costumes, and a few like him, alone.

The red-clothed monk led him over and asked him to wait here, then continued back to the entrance of the town to stop anyone who entered the place.

Xuan Ye looked around and found that many people glanced at him and then looked away.

Only a few stayed for a while, including a young monk in blue.

The other person looked less than thirty, but there was a sense of vicissitudes of life between his eyebrows, as if he had suffered a great hardship.

He walked forward, cupped his hands and said, "Senior brother, I'm new here. Can you ask me some questions about the Earth and Hell Mountains?"

The monk in blue clasped his fists in return and said in a gentle voice, like trickling water, "I have only been here a few times. What do you want to ask me, junior brother?"

Xuan Ye first asked about the team and learned that some large sects had organized themselves to hunt animals in the mountains.

After all, the Diming Mountains are very dangerous, and one more person means more protection.

However, he still saw something was wrong. The disciples of the big sects always gathered together and were quite indifferent to the smaller sects, showing disdain from time to time.

They were even more indifferent to those who came alone, as if they were specially isolated.

After chatting for a while, Xuan Ye and the monk in blue chatted happily, and then they exchanged names and learned that the other person's name was Nan Guanghong, and he came here in exchange for medicine.

After a while, someone came and told them that the fog would not lift today, and the team immediately dispersed.

Nan Guanghong chuckled, "This is the third day. Just get used to it. How about I take you for a walk?"

Xuan Ye had nothing to do, and Nan Guanghong was so enthusiastic that he naturally didn't refuse.

The two walked through the streets and alleys, seeing many strange things along the way, and finally stopped in front of a long alley that was only two meters wide.

There is a stone tablet standing in front of the alley, with the three characters Budai Street engraved on it.

"Budai Street? What a strange name." Xuan Ye thought to himself. Seeing that Nan Guanghong had already entered first, he followed closely.

"Brother Xuan Ye, this Budai Street is also a treasure in Jinglu Town. There are many treasures hidden in it. If you are lucky, you can buy rare things at very low prices."

Nan Guanghong talked as he walked and explained the rules here. Every merchant's cloth bag contains items, but they can only be viewed once. You can bid first, or you can lower the price after listening to the price. The deal is determined by fate.

"If the merchant knew that the items in the bag were treasures, how could he be willing to give up the price so easily?" Xuan Ye asked.

Nan Guanghong laughed a few times. "That's the fun part. See if you can bet on the merchant and see something wrong. That's where the opportunity lies."

Xuan Ye suddenly realized something, and suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some strange movement in the Xumi Bag. After investigation, he found out that it was actually the Longlong Cauldron that was trembling slightly.

I didn't know what it meant, but Gu Meier's voice came from the bottom of my heart. "It must be reminding you that there is a treasure here."

Xuan Ye was overjoyed. This weapon spirit actually had such a use? He immediately stopped and looked at the gray-robed businessman beside him.

There are six cloth bags in front of the other party, and I don’t know which one Jue Long Ding wants?

An idea struck him, and he stretched out his hand and paused over each bag. He discovered that when he reached the second one on the left, there would be a sound from the Longlong Cauldron.

He immediately picked up the one next to him, but the businessman snatched it away.

"Brother Xuan Ye, this bag can only be opened by merchants." Nan Guanghong explained hurriedly.

Xuan Ye was stunned, a little embarrassed, and saw that the merchant's expression didn't change much, maybe he was used to it.

"Are you ready?" Seeing Xuan Ye nodding, the businessman slowly opened the bag.

Xuan Ye looked around and found two things inside. One was a gourd the size of a fist, and the other was a small stick as thick as an index finger.

After reading it, he began to think deeply. The gourd looked like a treasure. He recognized the other stick. It was the fire stick that Di Yuan used in Changhuangjing that day.

However, he didn't want either of these.

"How about it? In the transformation stage, you only need this number." The businessman pulled Xuan Ye's hand into his cuff and made a sign of five and ten.

Fortunately, Xuan Ye had heard before that the currency used here was not ordinary currency, but demon crystals.

He did get a few things in Fang Lijian, most of them were in the Hunling Stage, eight or nine. But now he just wanted to hide it, so he pretended to think deeply for a while before saying.

"It's a bit expensive. I'll look at the two next to them."

The merchant was not annoyed and opened the one next to him. It was exactly what Xuan Ye wanted.

Inside is a book called "Tiangong Pu" and something that looks like a small ring. The next few bags are insignificant and don't look like good things.

The merchants bid in turn. The second one asked for seventy demon crystals in the incarnation stage, and the following ones were ten to twenty demon crystals more expensive than the first one.

Xuan Ye knew that this businessman had long been a master and knew that some people would play tricks on others. The first one must be a cover, and the latter is what they want.

But the businessman didn't dare to ask too high a price for fear of ruining the business. So he also returned a price and compared it to a hundred.

"I want all three."

The businessman immediately shook his head, "No, at least this amount is required."

Xuan Ye figured out that it was one hundred and sixty, frowned slightly, and sighed, "It's too expensive, why don't you give me these two?"

Xuan Ye pointed to the first and third ones, which happened to bypass the second one he wanted.

This is a game, a bet that the businessman will think that the third one is what he wants.

Sure enough, the businessman shook his head again, this time changing the price to one hundred and twenty, and said he would not make any more concessions.

At this point, we reach a subtle step. The three bags add up to one hundred and sixty, but the sum of the first and third bags is one hundred and twenty.

Xuan Ye had tipped the scales in the merchant's mind and decided that the third bag was the one he wanted to buy, so he lowered the value of the second bag.

He calmly took out four pieces of Hunling Stage Demon Crystal and handed them to the other party, then took the second bag.

When the businessman saw that Xuan Ye had turned away, he realized what had happened. He immediately stamped his feet angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

However, he remembered that it was just a broken book, and only the ring finger was worth one Hunling Stage Demon Crystal, so it wasn't a loss after thinking about it.

The reason why I am so angry is because I have been in business for so many years and today I am being manipulated by a little guy.

On the other side, Xuan Ye put away the bag and did not show too much joy. Instead, he walked and watched extremely calmly.

On the other hand, Nan Guanghong looked happy and asked with a smile: "Brother Xuan Ye, have you found a treasure?"

Xuan Ye nodded, "It's okay, it's a useful thing."

"Then it's worth the trip."

The two continued to wander around, and did not buy anything after walking through Budai Street. However, when they went out, Nan Guanghong frowned, and deliberately led Xuan Ye to avoid the crowd.

However, trouble still came to the door. A group of people from the sect dressed in colorful clothes gathered around. The young man at the head was quite arrogant and spoke directly to Guanghong Guanghong.

"Isn't this the deputy sect leader of Qingyi Sect? What? He comes out to earn money for your sect leader to buy medicine?"

After he finished speaking, the people from the sect beside him burst into laughter. The onlookers seemed to recognize this group of sect disciples and did not dare to get too close to watch the excitement.

Nan Guanghong narrowed his eyes deeply. There was no emotion or anger on his face, and even his tone of voice didn't change much. "Don't worry about matters within the family."

"That's true. After all, the old guy is dead, and you will be the next leader of the sect. What do you think? Do you want to consider handing over the Qinglui Secret Technique? I guarantee that you will remain the leader of this sect for the rest of your life!"

Nan Guanghong had a sullen face, gritted his teeth and glared at the other person. "Mo Lan, don't bully others too much!"

"Am I going too far to deceive others? I'm obviously showing you a way out." Mo Lan raised his head slightly, looked down, and sneered at the corner of his mouth. "What? You, a little Tsing Yi sect, can still stand up to me, the Tianlan Sect.

Can’t make it?”

Nan Guanghong's body trembled, but he said no more words.

"Think it over carefully, Deputy Sect Master!" Mo Lan sneered and led everyone away.

Nan Guanghong lowered his head and was silent for a long time. Then he remembered Xuan Yelai beside him and couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Sorry, I made you laugh."

"It's nothing, it's just that this Tianlan Sect... is very strong?" Xuan Ye thought of the man just now. His cultivation level was acceptable, but he was no better than Nan Guanghong.

Nan Guanghong nodded and continued to lead the way. "The Tianlan Sect is located to the south of here and is one of the largest sects. The man just now is named Mo Lan. He is one of the three sons of Tianlan and the leader of the younger generation."

Xuan Ye frowned and inadvertently asked the doubts in his mind. "Which one is better, Tianlan Sect or Xuantian Temple?"

Nan Guanghong was stunned, and immediately smiled bitterly and said: "Of course there is Xuantian Temple. There is no sect in Dongzhou that can compare with it. However, in recent years, there have been several large sects that have risen, which can be compared to them. Tianlan Sect can only be regarded as a medium sect.

Door!"

When he said the last sentence, his tone seemed a bit harsh, which made Xuan Ye guess that the injury to the leader of the Tsing Yi Sect might be related to the Tianlan Sect.

He didn't hesitate to ask. After walking for a while, he saw a crowd of people in front of him, and he didn't know what the excitement was about.

"That was the Weapon Refining Competition held in Tianbao Pavilion. It is said that the first place can get the Heavenly Spirit Liquid and an opportunity to purchase goods at the lowest price in Tianbao Pavilion, so many people signed up to participate."

"Celestial Spiritual Liquid?" Xuan Ye seemed to have an impression that it was a substance that strengthened the spirit and was particularly useful for spiritual power. In this way, it should also be of great benefit to the spiritual body.

Nan Guanghong nodded, "Tianling liquid is the second best. Being able to buy goods at Tianbao Pavilion at a low price is the real attraction. Especially for some rare things, as long as you can afford them, you can save several times the money."
