Chapter 16 The lonely old man Ling enters the water (please collect, please recommend)
The five shops in this depth are also the only five shops in the market. They occupy the middle position and are also the largest shops. "Yunwu Baiqi Hall".
The two shops on the right are "Luoxia Formation Shop" and "Qingzhu Fu Pavilion".
The two shops on the left are "Lingxiao Rice Hall" and "Tiger Roaring Beast Pavilion".
These five stores were opened by the five major foundation-building families in Huaishui County. The remaining markets were opened by the other foundation-building families in Huaishui County. The same is true, and they all have shops opened by the other families.
Because Huaishui County is a newly opened human territory, the five foundation-building families come from different places in the four major states under Bailingmen. Their backgrounds are also weak, and the strength of the clan is also weaker than that of the foundation-building families in other counties. It is also close to the boundary of Jiaomang Lake, with the only Huaishuifang City built by Bailingmen in between.
Therefore, the five major families in Huaishui County are now united and have excellent relations with each other. They are far less hateful to each other than other counties and cities.
This is how we can be like now. In the market opened by our own family, there are also shops opened by other families.
Of course, this move is also to expand the interests of their respective families in different counties.
It can also be considered a win-win cooperation!
Ling Pengyun walked into Lingxiao Rice Hall and shouted respectfully to the white-haired old man wearing Ling's Taoist robes and looking like a steward who was looking through the account books at the rice hall counter.
"Fifteenth great-grandfather!"
Hearing the call, the white-haired old man quickly raised his head and looked at the door of the store. When he saw the familiar face, his expression suddenly brightened.
There is indeed a feeling of excitement of meeting relatives after being thousands of miles away from home.
He asked kindly with a smile on his face.
"Xiao Pengyun, you are not yet eighteen, why are you here here!"
The name of this white-haired old man is Ling Rushui, and he is the fifteenth in the Ling family's generation. He is ninety-six years old. He has dedicated a lot to the Ling family throughout his life and has achieved great results through hard work.
Ling Ruishui is also miserable. He is a lonely old man. He once had a wife and would even have a child soon. However, when his wife, a monk, was pregnant with the child and returned to her parents' home to visit relatives, Encountering an evil cultivator, he fell into a situation where his body disappeared and his body was still cold.
Ling Rushui has not been able to get over this incident for decades, so he has never married or given birth to another child.
Ling Pengyun first explained that the family was short of manpower and sent him and four other members of the Peng generation to guard the spiritual veins, and then laughed and laughed. "The main reason I came here on this trip is to miss you, my fifteenth great-grandfather, and come to visit you. The other thing is to come to this shop to buy Huangya Dan!"
Ling Pengyun, including Ling Pengyun's parents, are all very close to Ling Ruishui.
When Ling Rushui was young, he used to manage the Lingxiao Miscellaneous Hall in Yunshuifang City, Yunshui County where the Ling family was originally located. Ling Pengyun’s parents worked under this family elder in their early years. Later, due to Ling Ruishui's age, the clan moved, and the store was handed over to Ling Pengyun's parents, who had always been diligent in their work.
Ling Rushui also followed the family to Huaishui County. Later, because Ling Rushui was old but could not stay idle, he asked the family to come to the Yunwu Market opened by the Wen family to manage this place. An errand for Ling Xiao Mi Tang.
“You brat, when you come to buy Huang Ya Dan, just say you want Huang Ya Dan!” Ling Ruda scolded, but the smile on his face betrayed his joy at Ling Pengyun’s words. .
Although Lingxiao Rice Hall mainly sells three kinds of spiritual rice from Ling's "Jade Series", it also sells some other items, including magic weapons, spiritual talismans, and elixirs, but the grades are not high. .
The same is true for the other four shops in this market.
"Xiao Pengyun, these are the remaining seven bottles of Huangya Dan that the family sent to this Mitang half a year ago. They are all two pills in one bottle. They are all of medium quality and contain five spiritual stones each. According to the As a member of the Ling clan, you can purchase items at a discount of 20% of the market price. How much Huangya Pill do you need?" Ling Ruishui took out a storage bag from his arms and took out five bottles of Huangya Pill.
Ling Pengyun had already thought about the quantity of Huangya Dan he wanted to buy, and then he said. "Ten!"
Ling Rushui was slightly surprised by the number of Huangya Dan that Ling Pengyun wanted, but he was relieved when he thought that Ling Pengyun's parents would give Ling Pengyun a lot of spiritual stones every month to buy cultivation resources.
However, as an elder, Ling Rushui still warned Ling Pengyun about the dangers of taking too many pills.
"Xiao Peng said, although the elixir is good, if you take it too much, it will inevitably accumulate a lot of impurities in the meridians, which may affect your future path. In the store, half a year ago, five pieces of this batch of Huangya elixirs were also delivered. The middle-grade Qingsi Lingpeach has the same effect as Huangya Dan, and it does not have any impurities. It is not harmful to monks! The price is higher, six spiritual stones per piece! But you also know the benefits. It’s up to you how to choose!” Ling Pengyun was hesitant about purchasing the spiritual peach, after all, it would cost more. For one spiritual stone, if you buy five green silk spiritual peaches, you need to spend five more spiritual stones, which can be used to buy an additional Huangya Dan.
With thoughts swirling around him, Ling Pengyun looked at Ling Ruishui's angry eyes, his body trembled, and he said helplessly.
"Great-grandfather, can't I buy these five spiritual peaches?"
"This is not bad, then you can buy five yellow bud pills and five medium-grade green silk spiritual peaches. ! After the discount, there are twenty spiritual stones for Huang Yadan and twenty-five spiritual stones for Lingtao, a total of forty-five spiritual stones!" Ling Rushui's face softened a little and he calculated.
Ling Pengyun honestly called out forty-five spiritual stones from the storage bag and handed them to Ling Ruishui.
Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.
After Ling Ruishui handed the five spiritual peaches and Huangya Dan to Ling Pengyun, he asked. "It's dark outside, and it's the best time for evil cultivators to intercept and kill monks. If you return to the Qingshi Mountain where you are stationed overnight, you may be in danger. Please stay for the night, and you can chat with me!"
After hearing this, Ling Pengyun immediately agreed.
But it was not out of safety, but because he was afraid that after Ling Rushui ran out of life, he would be ashamed that he did not spend more time with this old man with whom he was close.
In his previous life, when his grandparents ran out of life, Ling Pengyun regretted for a long time that he had not spent time with the two old people while they were still alive.
And his relationship with Ling Rushui was as close as a real great-grandfather and great-grandson.
Ling Rushui and Ling Pengyun, although they had a simple meal that night, they talked happily until midnight. Then they said goodbye to each other and went to the room on the second floor of Lingxiao Rice Hall to rest.
In the early morning of the next day, Ling Pengyun absorbed the power of the early sun for a while, and went to Yunmeng Baiqi Hall, Tiger Roaring Beast Pavilion, and Qingzhu Talisman Pavilion to wander around.
As the host of the Yunmeng Market, the Yunmeng Baiqi Pavilion has indeed released many high-quality first-order magic weapons, and even a few flying magic weapons. Ling Pengyun, a descendant of the foundation-building family, sees He was greedy for it, but unfortunately he couldn't afford it. He only had twenty-eight spiritual stones left in his pocket, and he couldn't even afford the cheapest first-level low-grade paper crane flying magic weapon.
Unless you buy a second-hand flying magic weapon, there are no good second-hand magic weapons.
Going to the Tiger Roaring Beast Hall, Ling Pengyun wanted to see if there were any spirit beasts with good potential. Unfortunately, although there were many spirit beasts in the Tiger Roaring Beast Hall, some of them had weak qualifications. A spiritual beast that can only be promoted to the middle stage of Qi training.
The only thing that gained something was the Green Bamboo Talisman Pavilion. In order to improve his combat power, Ling Pengyun spent twenty spiritual stones to buy four first-level mid-grade Rocket Talismans.
Afterwards, I had breakfast with Ling Rushui, then I said goodbye to Ling Rushui and left the Yunwu Market.
The middle-aged Yunwu Wen family who was stationed at the entrance of the market looked at Ling Pengyun's leaving figure, his expression flickered, and he muttered to himself.
"It turns out he is a member of the Ling Xiao Ling clan. I said that at such an age, someone who can break through to the fourth level of Qi training is not a casual cultivator!"
"This person is young, he should be a Ling Xiao Ling clan A member of Pengzi’s generation!”
“This person’s cultivation is only at the fourth level of Qi training. He should not be the young genius Ling Pengxing of Ling’s Pengzi generation. According to rumors, Ling Pengxing’s cultivation should be close to him. He is in the advanced stage of Qi training!"
"If you guess this way, this person should be Ling. Although he has a pseudo-spiritual root, his cultivation speed is comparable to that of ordinary three spiritual roots due to his extremely strong perception of spiritual energy. The monk Ling Pengyun is here!”
“This Ling family is really talented. These two young and promising clan members may be able to continue the Ling family’s lineage in the future!”
"It's a pity that I, the Wen family..."
"Hey!"
This middle-aged Wen family thought of the Wen family who was also a member of the foundation-building family, but was still young and had no talent. , he couldn't help but sigh, his expression gradually became lowered, he also withdrew his gaze and stopped looking too much.
