There were four little people in the cage, all green and no more than six inches long. Three of them were dying, and only one was left. He had a bean sprout-like beard and hair on his head, lying on his side on the edge of the cage.
He crossed his legs, as if he had no regard for life or death.
The hawker who set up the stall had a worried look on his face. This kind of spirit is extremely difficult to feed. If it is separated from the tree where it lives, it will turn into a slurry in less than two hours. He drank two more cups before going out today, so he was a little dizzy.
Feeling dizzy, I lay down on the ground and fell asleep.
As a result, by the time he got up, he had already been delayed for an hour. Three of the four wood spirits in the net were approaching their end and were in extremely bad condition. Therefore, it was urgent to find someone who had taken advantage of them and get rid of them quickly, otherwise this would happen.
You lose all your money in just one trip.
"May I ask the store owner, what is in your cage? Why have I never seen it before?"
Happy Xia Ze shook his head repeatedly.
The hawker looked up and down at the young man in green robes. He was probably dressed like a young man from a wealthy family who was out for fun. He looked like a bastard who spent money lavishly. It was just him!
He put on a simple smile: "Young Master looks like he is a rich young man from the Great Zhou Dynasty. What you don't know is that what is in my cage is the legendary spirit of plants and trees that gathers the essence of the sun and the moon, called Peng Hou."
, Xiao Xiao traveled over the mountains and ridges every day, searching everywhere before he found its hiding place in a few towering old trees. This Penghou's body can be used as medicine, and eating it can boost ambition and ward off evil spirits."
His saliva flew wildly: "This living Peng Hou is more useful. After you buy it home, you can imprison it in a potted plant, so that the flowers and plants in the potted plant will bloom better and faster, and will not wither all year round."
Xia Ze clicked his tongue in amazement. Seeing him take the bait, the vendor secretly rejoiced, so he increased his skill, and the cowhide he blew out with his boastful mouth almost reached the sky.
On the one hand, he talked about how precious the wood essence was and how rare it was to see him in a hundred years; on the other hand, he talked about how he was destined to Xia Ze, and what he admired most in his life was such a handsome and noble young man.
Finally, he gestured with two fingers: "How about selling two pawn seeds to the young master?"
The hawker looked at Xia Ze's expression carefully, fearing that the enemy might notice something.
Xia Ze was about to speak, but when he saw the hawker in Lu Yi Lane, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and walked up to him in a few steps: "Ma Laosi, it's you again, why do you just forget to eat and not fight? Are you deceiving and abducting again?"
"
The man known as Ma Laosi suddenly changed his expression and quibbled: "Senior Lu, what are you talking about? What I sell is genuine Peng... uh...
.Wood spirit."
Lu Yixiang sneered and clenched his fists: "I thought you had a long memory after I beat you up last time, but I didn't expect that within a few days you would be full of lies, even to this simple-minded young man? Are you like this?
The wood spirit has been separated from the tree of origin for a long time, and its spiritual energy has long been gone. Besides, aren't you the lowest quality wood spirit?"
The hawker's face turned red and white, and he had to stand still and listen.
"The real wood essence Penghou was conceived in a big camphor tree. When people cut down the tree, the blood flowed, and five black dogs escaped. Food can strengthen the spirit and ambition. If cultivated properly, it can cover ten miles of flowers, plants and trees.
There is always spring all year round, and the branches, leaves and flower buds are luxuriant. How can you, these sickly wood spirits, be worthy of this price?"
The vendor was about to lose his patience and leave the table, but then Xia Ze suddenly put his palm on his shoulder, pushed him back to his original position, grinned and said: "Boss, I want all of these."
The wood spirit in the cage seemed to understand. It raised its head and looked at Xia Ze, its mouth slightly opened.
This time, not only was Lu Yixiang confused, but even the vendor who had originally planned to take advantage of him had some doubts about whether there was something wrong with his ears.
Lu Yixiang seemed to blame Xia Ze for not listening to the old man: "Boy, are you stupid? This price is enough to buy three or four wood spirits that are better than this elsewhere."
"Let's make friends." Xia Ze looked back and smiled.
"Yes, sir, this..." Even the hawker couldn't bear it.
Xia Ze hesitated for a moment and said: "Boss, I'm just going out this time and I don't have much to bring with me. If I just give you a banknote and I'm afraid you won't accept it, how about this? I'll exchange it with you for a talisman from the mountain god."
how."
"Amulet, what kind of talisman? How much is it worth?" As soon as the vendor heard Xia Ze say that he had no money, his face as a profiteer suddenly became ugly.
Good guy, it turned out to be a flamboyant and fake nobleman who caused him to waste so much time. Just as he was about to chase people away, he saw a talisman stuck between the two fingers of the young man, and the top corner began to light up with flames.
In the sky, there was a layer of rain clouds, gathering above the head, and then it rained heavily. People at the foot of the mountain complained and ran away to take shelter from the rain. In the cage, the three weak wood spirits were washed by the golden raindrops.
, I suddenly felt refreshed, but I still didn’t dare to get up, so I had to pretend to be asleep.
Xia Ze pinched away the flames with two fingers, and the sudden heavy rain suddenly stopped miraculously. The vendor was stunned when he heard the young man say: "Shopkeeper, can I exchange this talisman for these four wood spirits of yours?
"
"Yes, yes, that's great! These four wood spirits belong to the young master." He snatched the talisman from Xia Ze's hand and nodded.
Satisfied, Xia Ze picked up the cage, turned around and left with Lu Yixiang.
Seeing that the deal was done, the hawker seemed to be afraid that Xia Ze would suddenly regret it after being instigated by Lu Yixiang, so he didn't even care about the bench and ran into the woods and disappeared.
A rain-cleansing meditation talisman can bring a large amount of rain within a three-mile radius. If it is a year of drought, you can make a fortune with this talisman.
"Boy, I know you are rich and I know you are capable, but if you just gave the talisman to that guy so casually, wouldn't it be..."
Xia Ze shook his head and presented the three green talismans with both hands: "This talisman of mine comes from my family. If I don't use the family's spells to regularly support the spiritual energy, the spiritual energy will dry up and turn into waste paper within seven days. Besides, the talisman I gave him
The talisman is just the lowest defective product, and with the remaining spiritual power, it will be difficult to even make it rain, let alone blow a breeze."
Lu Yixiang nodded repeatedly, but heard Xia Ze say: "Senior, please remember, when this talisman is activated, you need to recite silently in your heart, "The heaven and earth are natural, and the foul air is dispersed. The mystery in the cave is shining with the power of Taiyuan and eight directions.
Make me natural. The spiritual treasure talisman tells the nine heavens."
"Why did you give me the talisman?" Lu Yixiang asked puzzledly.
Xia Ze thought for a while: "This is a way of thanking Senior Lu for speaking up and giving me some pointers."
Lu Yixiang was immediately startled, and for a long time he hammered Xia Ze on the head with a chestnut.
"You're a pretty good guy, but you have to correct the problem of being taken advantage of by others. There are so many twists and turns in the rivers and lakes. You can do it with just a little effort without having to mobilize troops. It seems too boring."
Xia Ze found a deserted corner and sat down cross-legged. The four wood spirits watched the young man shivering and kept speculating on his own outcome.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ze just turned his palm, and four energetic Jingzhe coins jumped out.
Xia Ze stretched out his palm and said with a faint smile: "Come, eat the spiritual energy on this fairy money, and then find a safe big tree to live in. Remember not to be caught."
The four little wooden men had doubts about Xia Ze and did not dare to step forward at first, but Xia Ze did not mind and simply threw the few copper coins to them, then opened the cage and stepped back several steps.
Then he stepped forward with hesitation and held up the few Jingzhe coins.
There was a crisp sound like chewing a crisp pear, and the weakness of the few wood spirits caused by the depletion of spiritual energy was wiped away and they were refreshed.
When Xia Ze saw this, he was naturally filled with joy. Jingzhe Money, Ear Grain Money, White Dew Money, and Heavy Snow Money, the first two of which represent spring and summer, when the rain is continuous and flowers and plants are luxuriant. However, Xia Ze looked at them like this,
Afraid of accidentally overdoing it, I kicked my calf and died.
Therefore, it is best to choose the Jingzhe money, which represents the early spring, for warming and tonic.
The young man suddenly lowered his head, just because he was sitting in the field of one of the three souls in the Qi Palace in his chest. He was risking his life and getting angry. Xia Ze was a little helpless and said several times, okay, I'm sorry, and then casually put the three
Plant the money in the mango and put it into your belly.
After the three copper coins fell on the skin and disappeared, the thunderous sound only disappeared.
The four wood spirits were full of wine and food, and looked at each other, babbling. Xia Ze looked at the four round bodies at his feet, and suddenly felt that it was very funny, but they suddenly pulled off the wooden whiskers on their heads.
Then, the hair was braided into a whip bit by bit, and then the original one was handed to Xia Ze.
Xia Ze frowned slightly. The whip lying in his palm was so spiritual that even if he held it in his hand, he could feel the fragrance of flowers and grass and the coolness of it.
The little wooden man ran back to his companions with a huff, and then they all bowed slightly to Xia Ze.
The three little wooden figures waved goodbye to Xia Ze, and then they seemed to be diving into the water, shouting "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!"
Only the little wooden man with bean sprouts growing on his head was left, staring blankly at Xia Ze.
Xia Ze waved his hand to it: "Goodbye, little guy, hide far away, don't get caught again."
Xia Ze turned around and left. The little guy finally came to his senses. He seemed to be hesitant and followed him quickly.
But when Xia Ze turned around, he shyly hid under a big rock.
Xia Ze just thought it was a child with a curious mind, so he returned to the team.
Not far away, the vendor saw that the three wood spirits had gone away, and their traces were hard to find. Only the little wooden man with bean sprouts was still in the same place.
I couldn't help but cursed loudly: "Why is this bastard so generous? He spent a talisman to buy my wood essence, and then let it go like this. It's really a waste of things and a waste of natural resources."
Unexpectedly, I turned my head and accidentally bumped into someone. I almost hit a wall and my nose was bleeding.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't look at the road..." The vendor quickly apologized.
The black man, with a muscular body and a face full of flesh, grabbed the hawker by the collar and said with a sinister smile: "What did you just say?"
