The fairy city of the market man

Chapter 26

It was Shang San'er's first time to use virtuous bamboo leaves. Compared with ordinary bamboo leaves, this thing is golden in color, with no veins visible, but it is no different when touched.

If it is imported directly, it can be transformed into a cluster of the most quintessential aura, which does not require human beings to take the effort to refine it, and it has the magical effect of quick recovery when the aura is exhausted.

A thick stack, it is practical to hold in the hand.

After counting it clearly, he carefully put the meritorious bamboo leaves into the bag, and Shang San'er asked Lu Shang: "Is there any immortal craftsman who can make high-quality treasures in the county guard's mansion?"

Most of the high-quality treasures used by the immortals in the world are first made of strange things, and then cultivated by the own family, seeking to be in line with the Tao and meaning, and the power will be great if they are in harmony with the heart. rare.

Seeing that Jun Cheng was puzzled, Shang San'er briefly explained: "When that Uncle Tu came to my Luliu City, in order to prevent ghosts, his house was placed next to the east gate, and he had to stand in front! He only had one arrow left in his hand. , I want to add some!"

Lu Shang smiled: "There are no craftsmen who can make high-quality treasures in the city. If the city master wants to, he can only go to Duobao Pavilion to make an appointment. There are several good craftsmen in other places in his house. Make an order and come to pick it up when it is finished!"

Duobao Pavilion has a big appetite for business, and almost got ripped off by twenty leaves. I just came out of there, but I didn't expect to be able to avoid it, and I want to pinch my nose and admit it?

Twenty leaves, Fu Tuzhuang has more than two years of annual salary.

Thinking of being slaughtered, Shang San'er took out some gold bricks and bracelets from the dog's back, and said to Lu Shang: "These two treasures were obtained by killing a mountain leopard demon on the road. Their karma has nothing to do with it, so the county guard's office will also take it away!"

These two pieces of the county guard's mansion are not very useful, Lu Shang was speechless, and after a while he said: "I am the master, the two treasures are eight leaves!"

Eight leaves are also successful, chatting is better than nothing, Shang San'er nodded in agreement.

After leaving the official office, he had to take Chen Wu back to Duobao Pavilion.

The shopkeeper on the second floor, seeing Shang San'er turning back, had a smile on his face: "My family is innocent, so the business can grow. Don't worry, it's the same everywhere!"

Shang San'er clasped his fists at him: "I wanted to buy a five-section Youbi prawn, but it's a pity that it's short of meritorious bamboo leaves. If I don't get it together, I'll order a treasure instead!"

The shopkeeper's smile froze on his face, and when he realized it, he said with a flick of his sleeves, "Please go to the fourth floor for custom-made treasures!"

After coming out of Duobao Pavilion, Shang San'er vomited "bah" and cursed: "It's so dark! If there is business in the future, I won't do it with his family again!"

In addition to spending six leaves on the first floor to buy a pair of conch snails that can fly a long-distance sound, the price of the custom-made treasure on the fourth floor is a high-quality arrow like the setting sun arrow, asking for twelve leaves!
Juncheng received two medium-sized treasures from Shang San'er, but they were not worth a good arrow!
The only advantage is that after the production is completed, it can be sent to any designated Duobaoge branch city, and the package can be picked up with the number without extra charge.

Unexpectedly, Shang San'er was only in Longlin City, so he could not enjoy this benefit.

I was really distressed, so I only ordered five, and paid a deposit of [-] leaves first, and then paid for the rest when the goods arrived, and it took a month to wait.

The ghost mother-in-law got the jujube as a thank-you gift. Duobao Pavilion asked for it all the year round, and Shang Saner asked the price. More than a hundred years ago, one only sold eight or nine leaves. The family is almost extinct, and now his family is willing to pay two hundred leaves for perennial harvest, which has increased by more than 20 times, and there is still no market for the price.

It was common a hundred years ago, but now it has become extremely rare, and it has something to do with the goodwill of a ninth-level immortal. I am afraid that if it is really useful, I will not be able to find it. I don’t want to waste it like this. I am not willing to sell it. A box that can keep fresh, put the jujube in it after going out, or store it on the back of the old dog.

I want to buy some good thread that is not afraid of being cut by the pliers of Youbi shrimp, but for prawns with more than five knots, the pliers are really sharp, and ordinary ones are not worth it. It's not cheap, and this branch store is out of stock, and shipping costs will be added to the order, so I won't buy it for now.

In addition to fishing lines, prawns can also cut hooks. Those who want to be free from shrimp claws also need to order, and the price is more expensive.

So fucking black.

Cursing is scolding, after a long time, I have to turn around and go back to Duobao Pavilion.

"Earth Immortal Drunken" requires a total of nineteen kinds of strange things, the two most difficult to find can't be bought, and the rest can't be bought for the time being, but the master of "Qiong Hualu" said that the ingredients are easy to get, so it's really according to the wine recipe To buy materials, in addition to all things, there are also seven kinds of strange things.

These seven kinds of rare objects are sold on the first floor of Duobao Pavilion, but the quantity required is large, and it takes more than 50 leaves to buy all of them.

In addition to strange things, the "Qiong Hualu" wine party needs a lot of ordinary things, and there are all kinds of things. They traveled all over the city and found many places for white fungus. , Even out the high price.

The wild is very dangerous, there are not many beekeepers, the price of honey is high, and the amount of raw brewing is still very large, more than 20 catties.

There is also the old ginseng, which is the treasure of the medicine shop...

These mortal things are really not cheap, and the money is spent like flowing water.

Brewing spirit wine is not easy, according to Master's words, "Qionghualu" is still easy, let alone "Earth Immortal Drunk"!

The food in Luliu City is almost finished, and the whole grains are cheap, ten cents a catty, ten taels of silver can buy a thousand catties, only flour is a little expensive, but it can't support the large quantity.

There are few people in the city, and it is the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and the crops outside the west gate of Luliu City are about to mature. I just need to buy some to pass this time, but the old dog seems to have nothing to do, so I accidentally bought too much.

At the beginning, there were more than 30 stones of grain, weighing nearly a thousand catties, all of which were shrunk down by the old dog and carried on the back, without even being seen shaking by it.

Shang San'er was upset, so he called out to the owner of the grain store: "Shopkeeper, it's the same as before, and another thirty shi!"

"Another thirty stone!"

"Another thirty!"

"Come!"

Unknowingly, the old dog still didn't shake after barking for six or thirty shi, and the owner of the grain shop grimaced and stopped: "Master Renxian, your dog can carry it, and the store has run out of flour, so I need to buy more." , I have to go to Gongcang to find the official's house!"

The old dog looked at him, as if he also wanted to see if he had more money, or if he carried more money.

A dung-eating dog is capable, so I don't want to fight against it!

It can be carried on the back, and it can be carried in the belly for sure. Let it find a latrine tonight, eat and drink clean!

In addition to food, all the oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar that were originally in stock at the grocery store had to be replaced, as they were always contaminated by ghosts, so it was best not to import them.

When he was eating fried sausages in a small restaurant, he also lamented that when he came here, he thought that more than 500 taels of silver would be more than that.

Buy everything that needs to be bought, Shang San'er feels sorry for the meritorious bamboo leaves and silver, and loses interest in this first big city, so he refuses Chen Wu's invitation to go shopping, and returns to the concierge department.

The people who come and go in the protocol department are all immortals except for the officials. They want to get acquainted with a few people. If they have nothing else to do, they sit on the stone benches in the courtyard and observe the people who come in and out.

After watching for a while, there are people who come in and out to report and ask for entertainment, but it's not easy to go up to make friends rashly, and start to try the old dog again, making black chess pieces casually.

The chessboard is also placed at hand, and when the chess pieces get tired of refining, they can be warmed up.

He has no talent, and he would feel bored after refining black chess pieces for less than half an hour, just changing the chessboard to keep him warm.

Impatient with the chessboard, I switched back to refining the chess pieces.

After taking turns twice, someone came over to salute: "Fellow Daoists are invited!"

Shang San'er was interrupted, looked up, and saw that the visitor was wearing a wide white robe and a high crown, with a fat body, a round face, and a beard under his jaw.

He stood up and returned the salute: "Fellow Daoist, you are polite!"

The fat man stared at him: "It's because I'm out of luck, and seeing how extraordinary the chessboard is, that's why I'm bothering you! I wonder if it's possible to give up?"

Shang San'er hurriedly answered him: "This is my destiny, given by my master, I dare not share it with others!"

With one sentence each, one can understand the identity of the other party, both of whom are Earth Immortals.

There are many immortals in the world, and it is rare to meet the gods of the sun and the earth. I don't want to see them the first time I go to another city.

During Shang San'er's observation, the Earth Immortal also sized him up, and asked tentatively, "Fellow Daoist, is the new Lord of the Green Willow City? Heir to the Celestial Immortal?"

It has been spread among some people that the Green Willow City suffered a catastrophe, and the Heavenly Immortal accepts disciples due to karma.

Shang San'er answered him, "It's right here!"

The fat man grabbed his hand and shouted: "Brother, next time I meet the Celestial Immortal, ask for something nice to sell me!"

Seeing Shang San'er's puzzled face, he complained again: "You don't know that all the famous mountains and rivers have been taken up by the seniors, and good life is rare. I really have no other way, I am dying of anxiety! After 200 years of luck, I have already lost my life!" After exchanging three life objects, my cultivation has dropped from the third rank to the second rank, and now I have to change them again, my Dao heart is about to collapse!"

Seeing the bitter look on his chubby face, Shang San'er believed it a little. He wanted to make friends in the corridor, but it was luck that he met the Earth Immortal. He asked, "In Xia Shangchun, what do you call a fellow Taoist?"

The fat man said: "My name is Ma Kuan. I used to use Ruyi when I was an immortal, and I was fat. Those who knew me called me 'Fat Ruyi', but I have been unlucky for 200 years, and there is someone called 'Wait Ruyi'!"

He revealed his shortcomings, and immediately made Shang San'er laugh, but the immortals in the courtyard kept coming and going, and the two earth immortals couldn't talk much, so he said: "Let's talk about changing places?"

Ma Kuan took his hand: "I'll go to the house, there's spirit tea!"

The master said that with the karma of the Daluo Jinxian, his family does not cause trouble, and few people with high cultivation dare to harm him. In Longlin City, the old dog guards him. into the house.

When he went to the VIP room where Ma Kuan lived, he really made spirit tea, offered Shang Saner a drink, and praised him for having a good dog.

Ma Kuan's tea is exactly the same as the shopkeeper on the second floor of Duobao Pavilion, even the taste is the same, how dare he have the face to say good tea?
Forget it, Earth Immortals also have poverty, so it’s not as good as comparing with Xiaoye, the Great Luo Jinxian who passed on himself!
Drinking the bad spirit tea, Ma Kuan really wanted to get to know him, and knowing that he was new, he didn't know much and couldn't come up with anything else, so he told some secrets of the earth fairy to increase his friendship.

"Exchanging my life four times, I have been tossing so hard, and I hate that the only income I have is this self-grown tea, but it has little aura and can't be sold at a high price! See, you don't like to be vain, you are all immortals, called Can you succeed, brother Shang? You call me Big Brother Ma!"

The shopkeeper said that the tea was from the Southern Jin Kingdom, and he was the one who planted it.

"Fresh! Brother Shang, you should know that the world's famous mountains and great rivers each have a beautiful aura, and using them to raise magic weapons and refine spirits can get twice the result with half the effort, but they are all taken up by the senior earth immortals. There is no place for me to wait for someone with great ability! We have to wait for these land-occupied seniors to be promoted to heaven and die, and it is rare to meet them once in thousands of years. Is it my turn to be a junior and a second rank?"

"If you can't go to famous mountains and rivers, you can only look for life objects to hide your soul! Brother, you have to meet an immortal master, and I will worry about you. How can I not use the treasures of immortality when life and death are in danger?"

"If you use it, it will inevitably be damaged. If your life is damaged, your soul will be damaged. You can only replace it, but to replace it not only needs to refine the treasure from scratch, but also cause some damage to your soul! My 200 years have been really bad luck. I have encountered some things. Losing three life objects in a row, this is the fourth time I came to Dragonscale City!"

"Your family, the Lu family, also has an earth immortal behind them. I don't know how many generations of his family's ancestors, but they are hiding now, and won't come out later!"

"We Earth Immortals, cherish our lives, only get together once or twice if we make good acquaintances, and avoid dealing with outsiders!"

"The most famous immortal in the world is not a certain ninth rank, but the eighth rank bandit Barefoot Immortal. Although he is notorious, he is still a big name. He caused karma everywhere, and he has been able to do nothing so far, and he has not damaged his orders. But, do you know why? Because his life object has become a magic weapon of life, it will not be easily damaged, and it can be warmed up and restored after damage, so it is not the same as ours!"

"There is a mountain god of Longyang Mountain, who is also a wonder in this world. He has raised a lot of beautiful men, but whenever there is a gathering, he will bring them to show. Everyone scolds behind his back, but he enjoys himself!"

"The God of Jishui River has a group of good carp. He is willing to exchange for a good carp if he has a good relationship with him. What he serves is a delicacy in the world. I tasted it at someone else's place. It is really unforgettable. When you have a bowel movement, you must taste it. !"

This Fei Ruyiduan was a talkative person, and what he talked about were all new and strange things. Shang San'er couldn't get in his mouth, so he could only listen.

After chatting for a while, the topic returned to Shang San'er's chessboard: "Brother, this chessboard seems to be born with the effect of regeneration?"

Putting down the empty teacup in his hand, Shang San'er nodded: "It's made of endless wood in a place far away from the East China Sea, which means endless life!"

"Tsk tsk!" Ma Kuan refilled his teacup and shook his head in admiration, "Good thing! It's a pity that the East China Sea is so far away. No luck! No luck!"

He asked again: "Brother regards the chessboard as his destiny, so he can play chess well if he wants to?"
