Female supporting roles are not cannon fodder

Chapter 5

04
In the consulate hall, Lin Lan, relying on Ming Yan's identity as an inner disciple, jumped in line and handed over the task. Today happened to be the beginning of the month, and she had received a month's share, which happened to be 300 contribution points, plus the original One hundred contribution points, she has shown four hundred in the handbook now, but it is still far away to exchange for good things.

Lin Lan directly threw the manual into the sachet, took away the fifty low-grade spirit stones for this month's salary, and took Ming Yan to the street. If there were no these spirit stones, she might not have the money to buy them later. thing.

In order to facilitate transactions, some sects have special trading places for disciples, but they are only small places. If you want to go to a really large market, you have to go to an area recognized by the cultivation world, where any monk can trade there. Trading, even if it is a magic cultivator, as long as you follow the rules.

Lin Lan and the others don't have the ability to come out of the mountain now, so they are naturally in the trading street within the sect.

When you come to the street, people come and go, yelling and bargaining, all make this place lively and lively, and it looks more popular.

The familiar scene made Lin Lan smile suddenly. She remembered that in the script, she and the heroine met for the first time here. Lin Lan and Mo Xiao were shopping together, and because of Mo Xiao's eyesight, they found a jade pendant. Later, when she met Dairan, she even grabbed the same Linglong buckle with her. Because of Mo Xiao, Dairan gave in with a smile on the surface, but she was extremely eager to become stronger in her heart. This was the opportunity for her to be inspired to fight.

Compared with the Linglong button, the jade pendant is more helpful to the monks. Lin Lan believes that the Linglong button and Dairan will never let it go, but the jade pendant, if Mo Xiao can find it once, he will definitely find it the second time. This time, Dairan can take over Lin Lan's position, so that Mo Xiao is willing to give her the jade pendant, she is really looking forward to it.

"Where did the fugue go?" Ming Yan looked at Lin Lan, who had been fugue-wandering since entering the street, and then glanced at the restaurant just passing by, frowned and then quickly let go.

Lin Lan just blinked and looked around, and there was indeed a restaurant, "Then let's go." The business is important.

Before stepping into the store, a strong smell of wine came to the nostrils. Ming Yan squinted his eyes slightly in enjoyment, but Lin Lan ignored it directly. She didn't like wine at first, so she didn't feel much.

Mingyan is obviously a regular customer of this store. As soon as they walked in, the shopkeeper walked over to meet Mingyan with a smile, and said familiarly: "Is the boss here to discuss business or drink, but the dragon girl has been talking about you. It's time."

The other party has a higher level of cultivation, and the two of them are obviously on the same page. It is normal for the shopkeeper to ask Ming Yan directly, but Lin Lan intends to hand it over to Ming Yan to buy directly, so he has been looking at the store without opening his mouth.

"It's just bringing friends over to buy some things, there's no need to drink." Ming Yan smiled slightly, pointing at Lin Lan as a gesture.

The shopkeeper has long been a smart person who does business, and immediately said to Lin Lan with a smile on his face, "So it's my friend, please come here, but what do you need?"

Those who can do business here are all members of the sect. Lin Lan, who has just stepped into Qi training, can be said to be the bottom of the list. It is because of Ming Yan's friend that he can be called a friend by the shopkeeper.

The other party greeted him with a smile, and Lin Lan could no longer pretend to be an outsider, "Then please give me a jar of white wine, the shopkeeper."

Since this is Xiuzhen Street, it cannot be ordinary baijiu, but made from Lingmi, which requires a lot of craftsmanship, so Lin Lan naturally doesn't bother to make it.

Naturally, there is no need for the shopkeeper to do this kind of trivial matter. The winking Xiaoer had already wrapped up the things and respectfully handed them to Lin Lan, and did not ask for the Lingshi. Putting the spirit stone in the other party's hands, she backed away behind Ming Yan and stopped talking. She was not the one who had friendship with the shopkeeper. Lin Lan knew clearly that no matter whether it was in the entertainment industry or the cultivation world, nothing could be taken advantage of in vain.

Lin Lan's series of actions made the shopkeeper smile a little more, Ming Yan also smiled, not surprised and said: "I wonder if the wine cabinet is full today?"

Hearing his words, the shopkeeper looked at Lin Lan in surprise, until he saw the altar of liquor that hadn't been put into the sachet, he shook his head and said, "Even if it's full, I have to make room for you. Otherwise, your efforts today will be in vain."

As soon as the words were finished, the person had already gone to the inner room. Lin Lan looked at Ming Yan puzzled, but he grabbed his wrist and dragged him into the inner room, and followed the shopkeeper's pace.

The rows of wine cabinets inside are full of jars of wine. What does this wine cabinet have to do with people?Lin Lan's eyes flashed with puzzlement, but he still walked in along Ming Yan. I'm afraid the meaning of the wine was not pure.

Turn left along the room and turn eight times. Anyone who has no sense of direction will be dizzy by the wine cabinet that is exactly the same.

And when they stood still, there was still a wine cabinet in front of them, and there were only a row of candles scattered around the wine jar in the hall, so that people could only see the wine jar, but not the people around them.

Those wine jars were of different sizes, and there was a wine bowl in front of them, with various wooden signs on it, each wooden sign was facing upwards, and the other side was written with various price tags.

It was Lin Lan's first time here, and as her guarantor, Ming Yan, he was naturally obliged to explain the rules here to her.

The wine jars are not filled with wine, but various things. There are restrictions on the outside of the wine jars to prevent the spirit from peeping. Most of the rooms in this room are suitable for Qi training period. It may be a treasure that can grow, or it may be a completely useless waste rock. Everything depends on personal chance. The wine bowl in front of the wine jar has the price written on the wooden sign inside. If you like something, write down the price Carve a mark of spiritual consciousness on the wooden sign, and when the sun or moon shines on all the wine jars, the wooden sign will be cleaned up, and the things will be photographed in the way of the highest bidder.

However, sunlight or moonlight needs to illuminate the entire wine jar, only at noon or midnight, which is twelve o'clock, so what Lin Lan and the others have to wait is noon in another quarter of an hour, which means they only have a quarter of an hour. You can choose a wine jar.

Ming Yan is at the foundation building stage, according to the rules, he can't help Lin Lan choose, everything can only depend on herself.Although you can see how much the wooden sign is, the completely vague price is enough to make you hesitate.

Those wine jars didn't look much different. If she could sense something with her cultivation base, so many people around wouldn't be standing here. They should be ashamed and angry. After all, Lin Lan's cultivation base is real. The one who is at the bottom, does it really depend on luck?No, with such an unconventional name as Fuyuan, she would rather complain about it as an adult character.

Every wine jar is marked, since it is impossible to see anything, it is better to choose a lucky number.Thinking about it this way, she immediately had a goal. She didn't want to be greedy, nor did she have the money to make her greedy. She just randomly wrote down the price of ten low-grade spirit stones on both numbers, and stopped.

The altar of white wine just now only had three low-grade spirit stones, and the monthly salary of the outer sect disciples was only 50 yuan low-grade spirit stones, including the Xiangzong disciples, so the spirit stones here are still very valuable.

Not long after Lin Lan finished the selection, the waiter who was ordered by the shopkeeper to follow Lin Lan enthusiastically invited her to wait in the wine room, but this restaurant is also spacious enough, there are more than a dozen or 20 rooms that Lin Lan saw alone, and more Don't mention the wine room arranged for the guest officer on the surface.

The wine room that Lin Lan went to now was arranged for Ming Yan, because Ming Yan was the steward of Xiangzong and had business dealings with them, otherwise he might not be qualified based on his cultivation in the foundation period.

"You have chosen too?" Ming Yan left Lin Lan alone, and he will definitely go to the place where the foundation is established to choose the wine jar after all, after all, it is such a rare opportunity.

Ming Yan smiled slightly, still holding a white jade bottle in his hand, nodded to Lin Lan, and continued to drink his wine.

It was rare that Ming Yan did not respond so coldly, Lin Lan glanced at the shopkeeper who was sitting next to him, and knew something in his heart.

Although she is not that kind of smart person, she can still understand who treats her well, and it is better to keep silent for now.

When the wine bottles collided, Ming Yan chatted with the shopkeeper from time to time, and it wasn't until Xiao Er brought the three wine jars over that Lin Lan finally didn't feel too bored.

But what surprised Lin Lan was that the two wine jars she bought before were all lucky. What kind of luck is this?You must know that Ming Yan is only one, and with his money, even in the Foundation Establishment period, it will definitely not be bad, so how can there be only one?

Ming Yan probably noticed her puzzled eyes, and explained in one sentence: "I only buy this."

He basically doesn't lack anything now, even if there is, it will definitely not be the kind that can be bought here, such as Ninghuan Dan.

Even if Ming Yan explained it this way, Lin Lan still felt very strange, she was very self-aware, she was already prepared to return empty-handed, how could there still be wine jars, and there were still two complete ones.

Perhaps it was Lin Lan's eyes that were still confused, but the shopkeeper immediately understood the reason, "Did you feel that there were a lot of people just now?"

Although it was a question, the affirmative tone made Lin Lan hesitate for a moment and then nodded. Ming Yan also seemed to think of something and smiled knowingly.

"In fact, those people are phantoms. Those who have been here a few times will understand that for the sake of fairness, this feeling will be deliberately created, and it is also for the safety of visitors. Sometimes you think that there are many people, but you may be the only one. Sometimes you think there are a lot of people, but there really are a lot of people.”

Since the Qi refining period has not reached the level of judging each other through divine sense, the reason why Lin Lan feels that there are many people is not only the crowded feeling that the air is not smooth, but also shadows. Betting on the shadow on the ground, just think about it now, the eyes can also deceive people!
Lin Lan smiled at the shopkeeper and nodded, expressing that he already understood, it seems that he should pay more attention to it in the future, maybe it doesn't matter this time, but if he appears on the battlefield next time, it will be the price of life and death.

As soon as this topic was over, both parties soon began to open the wine jar to look at things. What Ming Yan got was a space ring, which was considered a very good harvest, at least worthy of his price.

Lin Lan was a little apprehensive and expectant, the first wine jar was opened, it was just a medicinal herb, it would not be worth much, and Lin Lan was not from the Dan sect, so it was not worth buying.

Next, only the wine jar was left.
