Chapter 13: Conflict
Pills to improve his cultivation are unaffordable, and Li Xiu's situation is special. He cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on his own. The seven ghost soul-eating techniques refined by the Shadow Soul Sacrifice can only absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. This was something Li Xiu could deeply understand when he made a breakthrough before.
To the lack of mana in the meridians.
While thinking about it, Li Xiu walked past the stalls selling elixirs. The front was filled with the smell of blood, animal flesh, and fur. The smell was unpleasant, but there were a few people looking at the stalls.
Li Xiu walked over and saw various animal carcasses placed on several stalls.
There were wolf carcasses, several kinds of snake carcasses with bright colors and circular patterns, and toads as big as cows and horses. Li Xiu saw that underneath the toads was written "Second-level Fire Toad".
When Li Xiu approached the stall and focused on the monster corpses, the green cursor on his backpack bar flashed.
This means that Li Xiu can collect these monster corpses. As long as Li Xiu is one meter away from the monster corpses, he can put them into his backpack.
A barefoot man held a blood-stained deer carcass in his arms and was haggling with the skinny old man at the vendor.
"How can you get three hundred spiritual stones for a first-class middle-grade roasted-antlered deer corpse? If you don't know the goods, I'll sell it to someone else!" the barefoot man said angrily.
"Hey, I guess Taoist friend used a shield to block this deer when he hunted it. This deer's antlers are cracked. If you go to another house, they will only give you a hundred spiritual stones at most. Moreover, the red light of this deer's antlers is dim. I'm afraid it will die.
He was also poisoned with a cold-type poison!" The thin old man chuckled, with an expression on his face as if he was trying to take advantage of a barefooted man.
The barefoot man hesitated for a long time, and finally threw the scorched-antlered deer carcass on the stall. Then he started trading with the skinny old man.
Li Xiu did not watch the transaction between the two, but when he looked at the corpses of the monsters on the stall, he also heard some of the conversation between the two.
The corpses in front are bottles and jars, filled with corpses' flesh and blood and unknown liquids.
There is a name on the bottle, indicating that it is a certain kind of demon fish or the blood of some kind of demon beast.
A gust of fragrant wind suddenly penetrated the tip of Li Xiu's nose. Li Xiu turned around and saw clearly that the person coming was a graceful woman in palace dress.
This woman was wearing a white gauze on her face and was covered by a vague magic spell. Li Xiu couldn't see her face clearly, so it was unreasonable for him to walk towards the stall on the other side of the square.
Just as Li Xiu left, the woman in palace clothes asked about the items on the stall.
"Are the Mo Ling Wu Suo ink sacs in these bottles of Taoist friends still intact?" the woman in palace clothes asked softly.
The stall owner at this stall was a middle-aged man. He poured out the corpses from a bottle. Inside the bottle was a palm-sized, gray and black mullet.
"This is the Wusuo I collected from Diquan Lake early this morning. However, the ink sac has not rotted for half a day. Fairy can rest assured!"
…
Li Xiu walked to the stall on the other side, which was like a grocery stall selling antiques. Not far ahead, Li Xiu saw the Shamate girl who had entered the market with him before.
The Shamate girl suddenly got into an argument with the stall owner. Li Xiu saw the Shamate girl staring angrily at the stall owner who was quarreling with her.
A few casual cultivators gathered around Li Xiu, and the stall owner with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was chattering away while holding an old bronze statue in his hand.
"I won't sell it! I won't sell it! This is our family's heirloom! Even if you give me more spirit stones, I can't sell it! Unless you come up with another thousand...no! Two thousand spirit stones, I can't sell it!
I'll think about it!" The stall owner looked at the Shamat girl's expression greedily.
The Shamate girl was also furious, and she angrily yelled: "I asked you at the beginning, you said you would sell it for 100 spirit stones! I gave you 100 spirit stones, and you asked for 300 spirit stones!
Even if it’s three hundred spirit stones, I’ll give it to you too! You actually... you’re like a lion! You’re as greedy as a snake!”
The girl who killed Matt took out her spirit beast bag, and this stall owner with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He was wearing a medium-level foundation-building cultivation level and had a powerful mana. Of course, Li Xiu's realm was too low and he had almost no experience in the world of immortal cultivation.
It can't be felt.
"Little girl! If you dare to fight privately in the market, the law enforcement team will severely punish you!" the stall owner was still shouting.
"If you don't hand over the holy statue, I will feed you, a southerner, to the wolves!" the Shamate girl glared angrily.
The two of them were at a stalemate.
Li Xiu realized that the girl who killed Matt might have really found a treasure by picking things up on the street stalls!
However, maybe she got carried away after seeing something good, and the stall owner saw it, and then the stall owner temporarily increased the price! He kept increasing the price again and again without giving the goods to the girl, which also made the girl angry and angry.
Incomparable.
The stall owner and the Shamate girl were very angry with each other and looked like they were about to fight.
The surrounding low-level Qi-refining stage monks were hiding far away, and only a dozen Foundation-building stage monks were standing nearby. These Foundation-building stage monks came to see the treasures in the hands of the stall owner.
The stall owner was also a little depressed at this moment. The strange bronze statue in his hand was just something he got from the storage bag of a monk in the Qi Refining Stage. He had carefully checked it countless times, and there was nothing special about it.
What a place! Judging from the way this alien female cultivator looks at a treasure, this thing is definitely a rare treasure! This rare treasure must not be sold at a low price!
Li Xiu hid behind a group of monks and watched the fun. The tense stall owner and the girl who killed Matt seemed to be wary of each other, and no one took the initiative to take action.
I don’t know who shouted, “The law enforcement team is here!”
Li Xiu followed people's gaze and looked back, and sure enough, there were three people dressed in green robes walking towards here.
The monk who headed the law enforcement team was a white-faced young man who looked to be in his thirties, but his face was very angry and there was a trace of blood in his eyes.
"What's going on? You are not allowed to fight in the city, don't you know? You two come back with us!" the white-faced young man said without asking any questions.
"Senior Wen, this female cultivator wants to forcefully buy my family heirlooms! If I don't comply, she will take my family heirlooms by force!" The stall owner with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said to the white-faced young man with an aggrieved look.
The white-faced young man gave the stall owner a cold look, then turned back and looked at the Shamate girl again.
"Are you from Canglan?"
"I've already bought it! Give me the holy statue back!" Shamat girl said with an angry look on her face.
"Holy statue? Canglan holy statue!" When the white-faced young man heard the word holy statue and saw the shabby bronze statue in the hands of the stall owner, he was completely shocked!
The strange bronze statue has an eagle head, human body, winged arms, and eagle claws. The human body is bare-chested, but its chest is engraved with stars like a star map. Under its paws are small squares of heaven and earth, clouds, birds, trees, animals, fish and insects.
The white-faced young man's attention was entirely focused on the bronze statue, which made the stall owner with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks both frightened and annoyed!
If he had known that this bronze statue was the famous Canglan statue in the grassland, he would never have made such a public statement!
