Chapter 35 Guest, candy buyer?
25 potential points!
Uncontrollable joy appeared in Qin Jiang's eyes.
However, he still restrained his excitement and did not rush to add more points.
There are too many people at the moment. According to past experience, the improvement of the Iron Arm Fist will inevitably be accompanied by changes in the physical body. The words here are a bit eye-catching.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered the lanterns, which seemed to be held in the Shishi River Basin in the inner city.
Thinking of Shishi River, he remembered the golden-scaled fish he had eaten that night.
Secondly, it tastes delicious, but mainly because the fish meat seems to contain a strange power that can increase his inner energy and increase his martial arts experience.
He remembered that the last time he ate golden-scaled fish, all martial arts gained a total of more than 30 experience points, and this was even before he had eaten a whole fish.
Although the effect is worse than medicinal bath, medicinal bath can only be done once every half month, even if he has reached the third level.
Moreover, since he has decided to improve Iron Arm Fist to the perfect state, there is no need for medicinal baths.
Furthermore, if you can save some potential points by spending some money, it is still very cost-effective.
With this thought, he walked straight towards the Shishi River.
Not long after, I came to a small river. I looked at the small river in front of me. It was said to be a river, but in fact it was just a larger creek. The widest part was no more than four meters.
This is because when Heishan City was built, the Shishi River in the west of the city was divided into dozens of tributaries at the entrance to serve as a drinking water source for the city's population.
These dozens of tributaries spread almost throughout the entire Heishan City. When they reach the east exit of the city, they converge again into one place with a width of more than thirty meters. This is the Shishi River, one of the true sources of the Canglang River.
Walking by the river, a fresh grassy smell rushed into his nose, making him feel as if his pores were dilating.
Looking at both sides of the river, there are almost no people fishing. Occasionally, there are a few urchins using dip nets to catch fish. People around the river basically use it as daily drinking water.
Seeing this, Qin Jiang couldn't help but sigh. The people in the outer city barely had enough to eat. Many of the refugees outside the city starved to death, but the people in the inner city didn't even bother to catch the fish in front of them. .
Shaking his head, he continued walking along the river bank and soon came to a small fish market.
"Fellow, are there any golden-scaled fish?" He looked for an old man and asked.
The old man selling fish raised his head and glanced at him, "Old man, there is no gold-scaled fish here. It is a treasure of the government and is not allowed to be sold in the market. If you really want to eat it, go and eat it. Let’s check out the fish market at Xichengmen.”
“Oh, thank you, uncle.”
After leaving the fish market. He walked straight towards the west city gate, passing by a relatively wide river section on the way, where the Lantern Festival is held every July 15th.
Every year during the Lantern Festival, a fishing competition is held, and the prize is a golden-scaled king fish.
Not long after, Qin Jiang came to the west city gate. He looked around and saw a large fish market. After walking in, he found the golden-scaled fish after walking around for a while.
“Store, how do you sell this golden-scaled fish?”
He looked at the golden-scaled fish swimming in the water, like pieces of gold swimming around.
"Warrant, no sale without a warrant."
The stall owner of the fish shop is a strong man with a round belly. He is holding a wide-edged short knife in his hand, lying on his back on a recliner, just After taking one look at Qin Jiang's outfit, he spoke with disdain.
Qin Jiang was stunned. Do you need a warrant to buy a fish?
After thinking about it, he tried to take out the token Xu Yanran gave him.
The fat stall owner sat up after seeing the token, and stood up directly after seeing the word "Xu" on the token.
"The Xu family wants it. Why didn't you tell me earlier! The normal price is five taels of silver per catty. If the Xu family wants it, it counts as four taels! How many do you want?" The stall owner's speech speed changed. A few minutes faster.
This is the Xu family! Half of the sky in the west of the city!
"Let's get two." Qin Jiang said.
“Okay!”
After a while, the stall owner tied the fish with a rope and said with a flattering smile: “It’s four and a half kilograms in total, so I’ll give you sixteen taels!”< br>
Qin Jiang took the fish and paid the money, and when he was about to leave, a golden light suddenly flashed in the corner of his eyes.
He looked over and saw a water tank inside the stall, blocked by the stall owner's lounge chair. Inside, a huge gold-scaled fish nearly half a meter long was swimming slowly in the water tank. "That is?"
The stall owner looked over and said, "Oh, you said this, this is the prize of this fishing lantern festival."
"How much?" Qin Jiang asked.
The stall owner looked embarrassed when he heard this, "Master, please don't embarrass me, this is what the official official wants, and I can't sell it to you."
Qin Jiang nodded slightly, but Say no more and leave directly.
After passing through several shops, he returned to Bei City. After walking for a while, he lowered his head and looked at the gold-scaled fish in his hand.
These two golden-scaled fish are bigger than Li Bo's. If there are no surprises, they have at least one hundred experience points.
Although the price/performance ratio is a bit lower, this is not the time to consider it now.
Tightening the fishing rope, he quickened his pace, but when he raised his head, he suddenly felt a sudden silence around him.
Raising his head, he froze in place, a chill rising along the coccyx to the back of his head.
I saw that there was no one in Beishi, which was very lively just now!
Not only were the people gone, but even the stalls were gone. The huge North Market looked very empty, with only a faint layer of fog lingering.
Huh? Weird?
"Guest, are you a candy buyer?"
A high-pitched voice suddenly sounded behind his ears. His eyes froze, and he turned back and punched out.
"Crack~!"
With a sound of wood breaking, a wooden cart belonging to a candy seller was smashed by him.
The moment it was smashed, the woman in gray cloth who was standing behind the cart disappeared, leaving only rotten wood on the ground.
"Guest, are you a candy buyer?"
The high-pitched voice sounded behind his ears again, his pupils shrank, and he slowly turned his head.
I saw the cart that had just been smashed appeared intact on the roadside. The woman in gray cloth was wearing a white apron, her eyes were squinted, and she had a soft smile on her lips.
Qin Jiang glanced down, and the rotten wood that had been broken just now had disappeared.
Without hesitation, he jumped over the cart and walked quickly forward.
But at this moment, he suddenly realized that the North Gate of the Inner City, which he could still see standing at the end of the North City just now, had now turned into an endless road.
Even the houses and buildings on both sides are spreading out, and the farther away they are, the more unreal they feel.
"Guest, are you a candy buyer?"
A familiar voice sounded in front of him. He looked forward and saw that the cart appeared on the roadside.
Looking back, the road was empty and the cart that was supposed to be behind him disappeared.
Taking a deep breath, he walked to the cart.
Woo!
The rapidly swinging arms broke through the air and made a whining sound. Qin Jiang grabbed the woman's head with his wide palms and thrust it to the ground.
Click~~!
The woman's body smashed into the cart and was smashed to the ground.
Poof!
After the sound of the balloon deflating, the woman's body quickly shriveled up, then turned into a ball of white mist and dissipated.
"Guest, are you a candy buyer?"
A high-pitched voice sounded, Qin Jiang's eyes were cold, and he slowly stood up and walked to the cart that just appeared.
"Get the cheapest one."
