Chapter 38 Book Treasures
I just found something after shopping for a while, which gave Lin Changqing a lot of encouragement and decided to keep up the good work. Let’s see if these casual cultivators from the Seventh Mansion can bring any surprises.
Walking and stopping along the way, I saw many novel gadgets, such as the mechanical puppet beast, which is driven by spiritual stones and seems to be very powerful. But I just looked at it and didn't buy it.
I even saw people selling raw minerals and raw materials for making talisman paper. Unfortunately, my mother didn’t know how to make talisman paper, otherwise I could have bought some for her.
Thinking of this, my heart moved and I reminded myself to pay more attention and bring some high-quality talisman paper as a gift to my mother.
After wandering around for a while, I finally got a big surprise. My hands were trembling slightly with excitement. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Lin Changqing would jump with joy! Quickly capture your excitement, another colorful halo!
This is a stall selling books. The stall owner is an old man in his eighties or nineties who is at the third level of Qi Refining. He has white hair and his blue clothes are a bit white from the washing.
Lin Changqing originally liked reading. Even if he didn't see this colorful halo, he would still stop and see if there were any books he liked.
This is the second time Lin Changqing has seen a colorful halo. The first time was the spiritual seed of the Void Babel Willow.
Lin Changqing knelt down and took a closer look. Many of them were customs, legends, and travel biographies from various places.
It records a monk named Lei Bu who likes to travel and explore everywhere since the foundation period, and there are some chance encounters and gains in the process.
I flipped through the last book and found that the final record was that my cultivation had reached the late Golden Core stage. I was going with my friends to explore a place called the Xutian Secret Realm. I was afraid that I would not be able to come back, so I stayed here specially. records below.
He also warned the descendants that if he did not come back this time, the descendants of the family were not allowed to explore the Xutian Secret Realm to search for treasures, let alone go to the secret realm to find his relics through the secret method of finding relatives through blood.
He also suggested that if you see that the soul lamp he left behind is extinguished, you can arrange for the outstanding descendants of the family to change their names and spread them out in various places, narrowing the target and spreading the danger, so as not to be wiped out by the enemy.
It seems that the real Jin Dan named Lei Bu must have a very powerful enemy, at least he is in the Jin Dan stage. There should be many stories in this!
There are sixty or seventy books in total, and some of them are in the third travel book, but Lin Changqing plans to buy them all. The experiences and travels here are also valuable knowledge.
"Boss, how do you sell these books?"
The stall owner glanced at Lin Changqing and said, "Each book has ten spiritual stones. Which ones are you interested in?"
Lin Changqing said: "It's too expensive, let's make it cheaper."
"If you like a few books, if you buy more, they will be cheaper for you." The old man said with a smile:
"How about buying them all, each book of Five Spiritual Stones?" Lin Changqing tried to bargain.
"No, it's so cheap. This is the life's travel notes of my ancestor Jin Dan. It's original and extremely precious. If you buy them all, the cheapest one is the Nine Spirit Stones."
“Isn’t it true that books can be copied as many copies as they require? Who knows if you are making this up? Buy them all!”
“Everyone. It’s the original version. There are seventy-two in total. If you want it, take all the 648 spirit stones.” I want to broaden my horizons. After reading it, I can send it to the family scripture collection pavilion for others to see, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many spiritual stones.”
"No, no, if it weren't for the fact that my grandson is now waiting for resources to practice, he would be reluctant to sell these treasures from our ancestors. It would be really unfilial for future generations! Take away the 630 spirit stones!"
"I'm giving them to you. Please add 550 spirit stones! The price is too high, I can’t afford it!”
“It is already disrespectful to sell the treasures of our ancestors. If we sell them at a lower price, we will not be able to see our ancestors until we die.” . 600 spirit stones are the minimum. I won’t sell them for any less.”
Lin Changqing has never seen such a capable person. He is really getting better with age! I saw that I really wanted to buy these books. There is no way!
Besides, the old man finally refused to lower the price to 600 spirit stones. Lin Changqing was also afraid of long nights and dreams, so he agreed to the deal for 600 spirit stones. He counted out 600 spirit stones and handed them to the old man. Seventy-two books were wrapped and put into storage bags. Now I feel relieved!
Lin Changqing said to the boss: "Boss, you won't wait and create the seventy-two Jindan monks' travel notes, right?"
The boss smiled awkwardly, "This How is it possible, no. It is guaranteed to be written by the great monk Jindan, and contains the original content."
With the addition of two words, Lin Changqing knew that he had been deceived by this old man. Just when I was about to ask him to withdraw some spiritual stones, the old man disappeared in a flash.
My sun!
Isn't this action too skillful? He is so old and yet so nimble with his hands and feet. It seems that he is not the first one to be deceived. That's okay!
The stall owner next to him said: "Young man, you must have been fooled. This old man Qiu has been selling travel notes for more than ten years in dozens of markets in the seven prefectures.
That's okay. I have the original to sell you! Why don't you come and take a look at my spiritual weapon. It was found in the ancient monk's cave. It is very precious and rare. I am interested in giving you a cheaper price."
Lin Changqing was speechless. Are you so easy to deceive? He left without looking back.
I thought to myself that the old man might have made a mistake and sold the original to him. I don’t know who is taking advantage of whom this time!
After calming down for a while, I still have to continue shopping. My sister’s gift has not yet arrived! Go look for it quickly.
I happened to come across a street stall selling talismans. There were also talisman papers for sale. The quality felt pretty good, so I bought 10 dozen. This was a gift for my mother.
My sister’s gift was not found, but I saw it again at Gambling Stone Shop. I didn’t say anything, so I went straight in. There were more people than the previous two times.
There are more and bigger rough stones than before, but the problem is that after walking around, I didn’t see any luminous rough stones! Happy for nothing!
But since you are here, let’s try your luck by buying two pieces!
I selected two rough stones the size of a human head and went to the boss to check out. Lin Changqing received 280 spiritual stones for the two rough stones. It’s really not cheap!
This time, there was no need for the boss to introduce him. He directly asked him to call the master who opened the stone. He also met the master named Hu who had opened the stone for the first time.
Asked him to open the two rough stones directly, Master Hu nodded, took out the tools and polished them little by little. Soon, a little red crystal was exposed, and the people watching around him immediately started to boil.
Some experienced people have judged that this is a middle-grade fire spirit stone. Such a large fire spirit stone cannot be cut into twenty or thirty middle-grade spirit stones! This is a huge increase.
Lin Changqing thought. Otherwise, give this to his sister and let her practice directly. The effect will be better.
Okay, that’s it!
I directly rejected the boss’s proposal to exchange raw ore for 3800 spirit stones.
I asked Master Hu to untie the other one. Master Hu nodded and began to polish the rough stone little by little with magic tools. Maybe his luck had run out. This time he only found a small piece of low-grade wood. The spirit stone is probably worth more than a dozen spirit stones!
Just give this piece of low-grade wood spirit stone raw ore to Master Hu, and treat it as the first piece of happy money.
Offering a mid-grade spirit stone is equivalent to publicity for the boss. While everyone was paying attention to selecting rough stones, Lin Changqing quickly slipped out.
We went directly to the agreed place to meet up, and when we got there, we realized that we were the first to arrive.
The others haven’t come over yet. I looked at the sky and found that it was still a little early before the agreed time.
After thinking for a moment, he walked in the direction of Wanbao Pavilion.
