Chu Cheng stopped and recalled that his sister also liked eating candied haws in the previous life, so he walked up to the vendor and asked, "How do you sell this?"
The vendor responded with a smile and said: "One piece of low-grade spiritual stone and two skewers."
When Chu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but was stunned. There were sugar-coated haws of a few pennies a bunch everywhere, asking for a low-grade spiritual stone. Isn't this similar to robbing? You must know that a low-grade spiritual stone cannot be exchanged for even a thousand gold.
Seeing that Chu Cheng didn't reply for a long time, the hawker smiled and said: "Sir, this candied haws on a stick is not the kind sold outside. The candied haws in Fenghua City are all made from Bing Xin Guo. Although Bing Xin Guo is not a spiritual fruit, we have
Ordinary people can also keep fit by eating food.”
"Bingxin fruit?" Chu Cheng suddenly understood that this fruit was familiar to him. It is the main medicine for refining body-building pills.
But this is the first time I have seen Chu Cheng making candied haws.
"Boss, give me two skewers first!" Chu Cheng took out a spiritual stone and prepared to try the skewers first to see if the taste is different.
Chu Cheng took the candied haws, tore open the wrapping paper, and took a bite. The sweet juice immediately entered his mouth. The fruit was sweet and sour, so delicious!
"Very good!" Chu Cheng praised. As soon as the fruit entered his stomach, he felt that his whole body was in good spirits.
Although the effect of the candied haws made from the ice heart fruit is not comparable to that of the body-building elixir, if ordinary people eat too much, their bodies will not be strong, and the journey to martial arts will be easier.
Chu Cheng can be sure that although there are not as many monks in Fenghua City as imagined, there must be quite a few martial arts masters. This vendor is a body-tempering warrior!
If you put this in the secular world, you would be considered a master.
Chu Cheng smiled and said: "Give me thirty more skewers!"
The vendor was overjoyed. He didn't expect the seller to be so generous. He hurriedly wrapped it up and gave away an extra bunch.
Chu Cheng handed over the spirit stone and put the candied haws back into the storage bag.
The reason he bought so many candied haws on a stick is because he has now reached the Great Perfection of Gathering Qi and can become an inner disciple. Inner disciples can go back once every three years.
"Ling'er should have grown up to be a big girl now." Chu Cheng smiled. He bought these candied haws for his family. After all, they are made of ice heart fruits and can also strengthen their health.
Chu Cheng asked by the way where the spirit herb stores and spirit beast stores were. After asking, he found that there were no less than fifty spirit herb stores in Fenghua City! But there were fewer spirit beast stores, less than ten.
The nearest Lingcao store was only two hundred meters away, and Chu Cheng quickly arrived in front of the store.
When Chu Cheng walked in, a burst of medicinal fragrance hit his face, which immediately made people feel physically and mentally.
When the steward inside saw Chu Cheng coming in, he felt that his aura was not weak. He was a monk in the late stage of Qi Gathering, and he greeted him with a smile. "This fellow Taoist! I don't know what I want to buy. Our store has all kinds of medicinal herbs, even third- and fourth-level spiritual herbs!
Get it for you!"
The butler was not exaggerating. There would always be a few fourth-level spiritual grasses in a shop. However, he did not think that a Qi Gathering monk could afford the fourth-level spiritual grasses, which would have to be bought with high-grade crystal stones.
It's a unit. Even foundation-building monks may not be able to afford it.
Chu Cheng asked: "I wonder if your store has Perseverance Grass?"
The steward was overjoyed. Although the Perseverance Grass was only a second-level spiritual grass used by monks at the sixth level of Qi Gathering to break through the seventh level, its value was no less than that of ordinary third-level spiritual grass.
"Haha, of course there is a Hengxin Herbal Shop, but due to the shortage of supplies throughout Fenghua City, the price has increased a bit. One plant costs seventy mid-grade spiritual stones."
Chu Cheng was overjoyed, the more expensive it was, the better for him, he could have five on hand.
"A sixty-five middle-grade spiritual stone." Chu Cheng thought for a while and said that the spiritual grass purchased by the spiritual grass shop must be cheaper than the one sold.
"Yes! Fellow Taoist, please feel free!" The steward was overjoyed, with a cunning look in his eyes. He deliberately raised the price of one plant to seventy, and the market price was only fifty mid-grade spiritual stones.
"Happy cooperation!" Chu Cheng smiled with a smile on his face. "Here, here are five Perseverance Grasses. Just give me three high-grade spiritual stones and ten medium-grade spiritual stones!"
"..." The steward was confused.
"This fellow Taoist? What's wrong?" Chu Cheng couldn't help but wonder why the steward's face was so dark.
"This...this...to tell you the truth, I'm just a handyman in this store and I can't be the boss." The steward hurriedly changed his words.
Chu Cheng was stunned and almost wanted to say, are you fucking kidding me?
"Then who can make the decision in your store?" Chu Cheng frowned.
"Well, the steward is not here, it will take a while." The steward wanted to find an excuse to push Chu Cheng away. Even if he came back tomorrow, it could be said that the price had been reduced.
"Then say goodbye!" Chu Cheng stopped talking nonsense to this man. He already guessed what was going on, took back the Perseverance Grass and walked out of the door.
"Dear blind daters! Fellow Taoists! Come quickly and take a look, take a look!" Chu Cheng shouted, and everyone nearby turned their eyes towards him.
"This is a black-hearted shop! A plant of Perseverance Grass costs seventy mid-grade spiritual stones! It's unscrupulous! It's a profiteer! Bullying me, a foreign monk!" Although Chu Cheng didn't know the specific price of Perseverance Grass, he remembered what Ma Yun had said.
There are about fifty medium-grade spiritual stones, so the price will not be much different.
"Perseverance grass? Tsk tsk, two plants in this store are worth three in other stores." A late-stage Qi Gathering monk sarcastically said.
The steward was also anxious when he saw Chu Cheng getting into trouble. For a store like theirs, the most important thing is reputation.
He hurriedly pulled Chu Cheng back and said with a smile: "This fellow Taoist, I just summoned the manager and he said that he can buy it."
"Oh, okay." Chu Cheng accepted it when he saw that it was good, and took out the five Perseverance Grasses again. "Replace them with high-grade spiritual stones."
After Chu Cheng got the spirit stone, he smiled and said to the people outside: "I'm sorry, everyone, this store is a big conscience store! I bought a Perseverance Grass for 65 yuan of medium-grade spirit stones. I just misunderstood it.
!”
When some monks heard this, they were delighted. The monks with the Perseverance Grass on their bodies rushed into the store one after another. They bought seventy middle-grade spiritual stones! But it was twenty more than what they bought!
The butler's expression changed, and as he watched Chu Cheng go away, he already had murderous intent in his heart.
But there is no other way. Since I said in front of so many people that 70 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones can be purchased, I can only suffer the loss of being dumb.
After the vendors left, the housekeeper shouted softly: "Here comes someone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow appeared behind the butler.
The cultivation level emanating from this person is impressively the Qi Gathering Perfection!
"Follow this man, wait until he leaves the city, and bring some men to kill him." The housekeeper was so murderous that this boy actually caused him a lot of losses.
"Yes." The Qi Gathering Dzogchen monk responded, then flashed and disappeared in front of the housekeeper.
Chu Cheng naturally had no idea that a crisis was waiting for him at this time.
He came to the largest spiritual animal shop in Fenghua City. There were many rare and exotic animals on display in the store. There were colorful parrots, three-tailed apes, two-headed pythons...
Chu Cheng looked at those strange beasts and marveled at how any of them would have made headlines in his previous life.
However, Chu Cheng knew that what was placed outside was just a strange species and could not be regarded as a spiritual beast. How could a real spiritual beast be placed casually outside?
"This fellow Taoist, I don't know what you are interested in? This two-headed python is the descendant of the two-pole demon beast and the ordinary python. Its strength is also in the early stage of Qi gathering. If you buy it, it will be a good helper." One of the winners.
The young monk came over.
"Strength in the early stage of gathering energy?" Chu Cheng shook his head. The early stage of gathering energy was still helpful to him three years ago, but now he doesn't like it anymore. When he is in the middle stage of gathering energy, he can defeat a group of early stages.
Not to mention that now that Qi Gathering is complete, this kind of strange beast can't help at all.
The middle-aged monk also said it casually. With his eyesight, he could still tell that the strength of this young monk was about the same as his own.
"Then what do you think of this thunder marten?" The middle-aged monk pointed to a cage frame in front with a smile.
Chu Cheng looked over there and saw only a black mink in the cage. The lightning flashing on its body was so majestic! Wouldn't it be very cool if he took this thunder mink for a stroll?
The middle-aged monk saw Chu Cheng's move and continued: "Although this thunder marten is not a spiritual beast, it is also loved by many monks. It also has the strength of the middle stage of Qi gathering."
Chu Cheng was indeed a little moved, mainly because the thunder marten was so cool and had the strength to gather energy in the middle stage, so it could also be of some help.
"How many spirit stones do you need?" Chu Cheng thought it was better to ask the price first.
"That's great! It's your first time visiting our store, and I'll give you a 10% discount. It originally cost 200 medium-grade spiritual stones, but now it only costs 180." The middle-aged man chuckled, and it was indeed a discount.
Discount.
"One hundred and eighty mid-grade spirit stones?" Chu Cheng was stunned for a moment. Although the spirit stones he had could be used to buy three thunder martens, the one hundred and eighty mid-grade spirit stones were spent on a strange creature that was watching and playing hard.
It's really too luxurious on the beast.
An outer disciple of the Luo Yun Sect only has six low-grade spiritual stones a month, and it takes nearly two years to save a single medium-grade spiritual stone. Even the inner disciples can’t afford much, right? Only the core disciples can afford it.
How can you be so arrogant?
Chu Cheng gave up this idea. Now that his magic weapon and flying magic weapon were damaged, he needed to spend a lot of spiritual stones. Besides, he was ready to buy the spiritual weapon.
A good spiritual weapon can at least increase your strength by several percent!
"Well, I'm not here to buy spiritual beasts." Chu Cheng said embarrassedly.
"It's okay, fellow Taoist, you can take a look at it if you don't mind. If you want to buy something in the future, you can come back." The middle-aged monk still said with a smile.
Only then can he do business, Chu Cheng said in his heart, this middle-aged monk gave him some favor.
Chu Cheng said: "I wonder if your store has a three-eyed spirit fox?"
The middle-aged monk was stunned. The three-eyed spirit fox was a spiritual beast. Why did you ask if you didn't want to buy it?
"Could it be?" The middle-aged monk thought of something, and then he said happily: "Could it be that my fellow Taoist has a three-eyed spirit fox in his hand?"
Chu Cheng smiled and said directly, "Not bad! I happen to have a three-eyed fox in my hand."
The middle-aged monk said happily: "To be honest with you fellow Taoist, this three-eyed spirit fox has not appeared in Qingzhou for decades. Someone happened to be in urgent need of purchasing it, and three hundred high-grade spirit stones were found."
"Three hundred high-grade spiritual stones?" Chu Cheng secretly took a breath. The price was fifty times higher than he estimated.
"However, there will be an auction held by our Chamber of Commerce in Fenghua City in three days. If you are not in a hurry, you can entrust it to our store. The three-eyed spirit fox has a base price of 60 high-grade spiritual stones. As for the auction price at that time, it will need to be divided into two chambers of commerce.
The ingredients are red. I just don’t know if you dare to take a gamble." The middle-aged monk said again.
"Auction?" This was the first time Chu Cheng heard about it.
