The coachman originally wanted to politely shout "Master, please", but the word "please" was replaced by an exclamation——
The old man Xu Weng was frightened.
Before entering the sedan chair, the other party clearly looked like a young master in fine clothes, and he was very generous with his offers. He gave me one gold coin when he came up! Gee, that's a full ten thousand copper coins!
How come after riding in the carriage for a while, the other party turned into a prodigal? He was still wearing a half-iron mask on his face...
No wonder the coachman was startled. He thought he had picked up the wrong person.
At this moment, Chen Shen was holding a broad-bladed sword in a hurry, wandering in front of various stalls.
"Run Ling Mushroom, one of the essential medicinal materials for the Ordinary Xuan Dan Qi Restoration Pill. The last three plants are worth a gold coin. If you want to buy them, they will be sold out as soon as possible!"
This medicinal material was regarded as a treasure, and each plant was sold for one gold coin. However, Chen Shen was not even interested in glancing at it.
"Come and take a look at the copper-skinned rhinoceros that I just hunted. This is an intermediate-grade mysterious beast. Its skin is as hard as iron. It is cut into armor that can protect yourself without being too heavy. It is sold in its entirety.
Just ten gold coins."
Chen Shen is also not interested in this thing.
"Come on, come on, I have a lot of weapons here, including swords, guns and clubs! They are also low-grade mortal weapons, but they are much cheaper than buying them at the blacksmith shop. Hurry up and buy them as soon as possible!"
I took a look at this guy's stall, and hey, there were quite a lot of weapons: a lot of ordinary steel weapons, and six or seven low-grade mortal weapons.
It's just that most of the weapons are stained with blood. They must be the "dead money" of killing people and selling goods. No wonder they are cheaper than the ones sold in the blacksmith shop - it's a business without capital!
…
After browsing all the stalls twice, Chen Shen was disappointed.
He originally wanted to see if he could find any treasures. For example, when he first entered Kowloon City, he bought a cage of flowered snakes from a street stall, and one of them was a unique white-tailed snake.
When the young man swallowed it alive, the strength of his body, bones, and even internal organs increased tenfold.
But this time, there were nearly a thousand stalls along the way, but there was nothing that caught my eye.
It seems that fate is something that can be encountered but cannot be sought.
Chen Shen had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and quickly buy a horse with good foot power because it was important to go on the road.
Why not ride Red Rabbit? Of course it’s also to avoid exposing your whereabouts...
Unfortunately, along the way, most of the stalls were filled with mysterious beasts, medicinal materials, weapons and the like. As for the horses, they were really not for sale.
In desperation, Chen Shen could only ask the mercenaries and traders if they were willing to sell their horses to him.
After looking at each other all the way, he finally caught his eye with an old war horse: "Man, are you selling this horse? I'm willing to pay a high price!"
"What? Buying a horse? Humph! You're not here to tease me, are you?"
The one-eyed dragon mercenary waved his hand impatiently: "Master, this dead mysterious beast is for sale. Do you want it? Don't leave quickly!"
"Really not selling?" Chen Shen asked again.
"Are you bored? You want to buy a horse, right? I will give you a clear path: enter the city, turn right, and walk two miles. There is a place called 'Changlong Stables'. There are many horses for sale there! I'm afraid of you.
Can’t afford it?”
Chen Shen's eyelids rolled wildly. If Brother Xindao hadn't been afraid that someone would discover his whereabouts, he would have bought a good horse in the city. How could he have come outside the city?
Not to mention anything else, just for the "shopping experience", the city and outside the city are like a world of ice and fire...
But on the other hand, Chen Shen's disguise seems to be quite successful.
Coarse linen clothes, broad-edged sword, straw sandals, bamboo hat and iron mask.
When others look at you, you look like a pauper. No wonder they are not willing to talk to you.
Well, nothing you say will work at this time, but gold will work.
Chen Shen said nothing, a white light flashed in his sleeves, he took out ten gold coins from the space package, spread them out in the palm of his hand and said, "Is it possible to buy your war horse for ten gold coins?"
"Wow?"
As soon as these words came out, not only the one-eyed stall owner was shocked, but also several nearby stall owners came over and stared at the ten shining golden coins in the young man's hand, with no concealment of their greed in their eyes.
Ten gold coins may be nothing to the resident cultivators in the imperial capital, but to the mercenaries outside, it is a considerable fortune.
"I really didn't expect this guy to be so shabbily dressed but so generous in his actions. He should not be taken seriously by his appearance."
"Isn't it? It's a pity that I don't have a horse, otherwise I would happily sell him for half the price!"
"Hehehehehe... According to me, this kid is a big fool! The one-eyed old king is not a good person. I'm afraid he will never come back with these ten gold coins!"
…
The one-eyed dragon licked the fat sausage mouth, and finally squeezed out a smile on his face: "Sell it! Why don't you sell it for ten gold coins? Hahaha..."
Chen Shen didn't say anything, just threw the money to the other party, and went to lead the horse by himself.
At this moment, the one-eyed dragon suddenly took a step across and stood between the boy and the horse. He had already put the gold coins into his sleeve pockets, folded his hands on his chest, and raised a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth.
The young man frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Huh! Grandpa should ask you this, right? What the hell do you mean? Are you trying to steal my horse? You are looking for death!"
At the same time as the one-eyed dragon's words fell to the ground, the profound energy all over his body surged——
"Plop, pop..."
The earth element's mysterious energy immediately attached to the body surface, forming a layer of natural earth-yellow battle armor.
"I steal your horse? What a joke!" Chen Shen snorted coldly: "You and I clearly negotiated the price early in the morning, and paid the price with one hand and delivered the goods with the other hand. This can be proved by the stalls left and right. But I gave the money, and you
But why don't you give me the horse?"
"Oh? Really?"
The one-eyed dragon flicked his wrist, pulled out the sword from his waist with a "clang clang" sound, and shouted angrily at everyone around him: "This guy said you heard that I was going to sell his horse? Come on, come on, those who heard it will stand up and prove it?"
"Hiss... I didn't expect that I haven't seen him for half a month. This one-eyed old king has improved in strength and is already a nine-star profound practitioner!"
"Well, if he can go one step further and reach the realm of Xuanshi, there may be a new mercenary group outside the imperial capital."
"It's a pity that the boy's ten gold coins were lost in vain!"
"Boy, don't worry about whether the horse is a horse or not. Hurry up and get into the city gate! If you wait a little longer, your life may not be safe!"
"That's right, you should treat your money as a lesson this time! Is it different outside the city than inside the city, where you pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other? The premise is that you have the ability to trade equally with the other party, hahahaha..."
…
After hearing this, Chen Shen finally understood.
He nodded slightly and sneered softly: "Hahaha, I have stayed in the comfortable city for so long that I almost forgot that outside the city, the provisions of the Great Xia law that 'no cultivators shall be killed without reason' are not restricted at all.
