Lu Xuan walked around the market and found nothing. He was not disappointed and took the opportunity to visit He Guanshi.
"Boy Lu, are you here?!"
The thin old man was looking at the account book, glanced at Lu Xuan, and ignored him.
Lu Xuan found a place to sit by himself and watched several thirteen or fourteen-year-old medicine boys in Baicao Hall busy coming and going.
The collected spiritual plants need to go through several processes, and what the medicine boy does is the most superficial processing.
This doesn't have much technical content, so Baicaotang handles it generously in the hall without fear of people seeing it.
"Here, have a cup of hot tea."
Not long after, Manager He came to Lu Xuan and handed him a cup of tea with green tea floating in it.
After taking a sip of the spiritual tea, the refreshing fragrance floated into his mouth and nose, making Lu Xuan think about it for a long time.
The iron cage was made of unknown materials. The slender railings had thin patterns and a cold feel. Talismans were attached to the four corners of the cage to prevent the contents from escaping.
Baicaotang is definitely focused on profit. In the face of profit, a little affection is dispensable.
"How about thirty spirit stones?"
"My companions and I worked hard to get this from the depths of a secret realm."
"Thirty-six spirit stones cannot be lowered. You must know that we paid a high price to capture them."
Lu Xuan knew that the stall owner had been convinced by his reasons, and he was particularly fond of this cloud-walking lynx with green eyes, so he relaxed the price a little more.
"Thirty-two spiritual stones, I will take them directly."
"The cloud-walking lynx is a first-class spiritual beast. It moves quickly, silently, and has good attack power. The cub in front of you is also different from the ordinary cloud-walking lynx. When it grows up, its eyes may have some supernatural powers."
"It is said that several people were invited to go to a secret place to pick elixirs. As a result, they were unlucky and encountered an injured second-level monster. Two of the four people died on the spot, and the other two were seriously injured and were dying.
.”
Guanshi He didn't explain clearly how to deal with it, but Lu Xuan guessed it by looking at his expression.
Manager He couldn't help but said.
Lu Xuan habitually cut off a large section.
Through the gap in the railing, Lu Xuan saw a young lynx in the cage.
He became more determined not to put himself in danger. After all, if he went out and couldn't come back, wouldn't the spiritual plants in the courtyard have to take advantage of others in vain?
After this episode, he had no idea of drinking the spiritual tea, so he got up and left after swallowing it.
Seeing Lu Xuan's gaze, the scarred Cloud-Stepping Lynx bared its teeth and leaned forward slightly, as if it was about to fight.
"hehe."
The woman asked a few questions and entered the Baicao Hall. Guanshi He was worried that something would happen, so he followed her in.
"What do fellow Taoists think?"
Suddenly, a woman and her child hurried into the Baicao Hall.
With a thought in mind, Lu Xuan came to the stall and his attention was attracted by an iron cage in the corner.
"You want forty spirit stones for such a small cloud-walking lynx? Are you crazy?"
Hearing Lu Xuan's reply, Manager He was relieved a little, and the two of them chatted casually.
"It's possible that these green eyes were only stimulated by some stimulation during the embryonic forming process, or were affected by a special aura environment. Fellow Taoist directly designated them as alien species. That would be too arbitrary."
After a while, he returned to the hall with a heavy face.
A pair of eyes that were as green as emeralds were extremely eye-catching, looking around coldly.
"Does having beautiful eyes mean that he is a mutant? Then does Diao Chan, who is on my waist, count as a mutant monk?"
The stall owner crossed his arms over his chest and didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Xuan.
"Then what should we do with the spiritual plant he took over?"
When Lu Xuan heard what Guanshi He said, he couldn't help but think of Lei Fei who invited him to enter the secret realm with him some time ago.
"You know, alien monsters are very rare, and the appearance of alien species in first-class monsters is rare."
The stall owner did not waver and kept sticking to the original price.
"Forty spiritual stones, it can't be lower!"
"I don't know the goods."
Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded next to him, and the stall owner followed the sound. A clear and handsome young man was standing in front of the iron cage, looking at him with clear eyes.
…
"How is it? Are the spiritual plants growing well? If they are not up to standard, then your interests will suffer a lot!"
"It can only be said that they have such a calamity. They have entered countless monks' secret realms, and they can actually encounter a second-grade monster."
"Fellow Taoist, may I ask how you got this cloud-walking lynx and what's going on with its pupils?"
"You should keep this so-called alien cloud-walking lynx for yourself! It's so beautiful, I can't get enough of it every day!"
The thin old man asked with concern.
"The spiritual plant master dies, and his family members are not very good at cultivating first-grade spiritual plants. According to the regulations, the hall should take over, transplant the spiritual plants, and provide certain compensation to the family members."
"It's just that it's much cheaper than mature spiritual plants. The family members came here just to beg for mercy and let the hall give her the remaining spiritual plants to plant."
"Fortunately, you didn't agree, otherwise...you might be the one who suffered the unexpected."
"With its current condition, it's still unclear whether it can be successfully fed."
"what happened?"
Lu Xuan sighed.
"Fellow Taoist, this is not an ordinary lynx that walks on the clouds. Look at its eyes. This is a different species of lynx. The price must not be the same as usual."
While wandering around, a dispute at a stall not far away attracted Lu Xuan's attention.
"What is the name of the spiritual planter who has established a cooperative relationship with the hall?"
"At that time, they tried to invite me to explore the secret realm with them. I was worried about the spiritual plants in the spiritual field and was afraid that I would be in danger, so I didn't agree."
The woman looked like she was crying, and her eyes were swollen, showing that she had been crying for a long time.
A qi-training monk in front of the stall couldn't help but refute the stall owner.
No wonder he was angry. If the cloud-walking lynx cub was at the usual price, twenty spirit stones could easily be obtained. However, the stall owner, relying on the fact that the cloud-walking lynx in front of him has strange pupils, the lion
He opened his mouth and actually wanted forty spiritual stones.
Sure enough, Lu Xuan got confirmation from Manager He that it was Lei Fei, the spiritual planter who invited him at that time.
The stall owner laughed mercilessly.
"My name is Lei Fei, one of the two people who died. What, do you know him?"
"Not bad, the quality is better than the last batch."
Lu Xuan smiled and replied, he knew that the spiritual planting in the spiritual field was not only related to his own income, but also represented the face of He Guanshi to a certain extent. After all, he was the one who introduced him to Baicao Hall.
"Fellow Taoist said it is a different species of cloud-walking lynx. I don't know what the basis is. Is it just based on its pair of green eyes?"
"A spiritual planter who has established a cooperative relationship in the hall accidentally had an accident. His family members came to ask about the follow-up treatment of the spiritual plant."
The qi-training monk said nothing and walked away.
The lynx's fur is jet black, and only its four soles are like white snow. When it stands, it seems to be stepping on four white clouds. This is probably where the word "Cloud Stepping" comes from.
There was a trace of confusion on the child's face, his mouth opened, and he allowed the woman to hold him tightly.
"Furthermore, I see that the cloud-walking lynx cub in your cage is not in very good condition. It was probably injured a lot during the capture by fellow Taoists, and it has been trapped in the cage without good treatment or treatment.
Recuperate.”
The two slender ears stand high, with two small tufts of white hair on the tips of the ears, which grow straight, like two antennas.
"Okay, then it will be easier for you, fellow Taoist."
The stall owner gritted his teeth and finally agreed.
He also knew in his heart that the possibility of it being a different species was extremely low, and he was worried that he would not be able to survive if he kept it in his hands. Being able to earn half as much as an ordinary cloud-walking lynx cub would be a pretty good result.
