"That's what you said, isn't it right! You'll treat us as the culprits in the first place -" Yan Feiyue will not give face to such profiteers. This is bullying them. They are young and have little experience!
"Shopkeeper, please tell me how many spirit stones you have!" Weisheng Suwen saw that the conversation was almost complete, so he asked directly.
Shopkeeper Mu hesitated and gave a price again and again: "Five thousand high-grade spiritual stones——"
"Deal -" Tong Yi made the final decision.
This price is still very reasonable. A sixth-level heavenly material and earthly treasure is usually two thousand mid-grade spiritual stones. However, this pair of sixth-level earth, wood, and yin-yang species is for two people, and the effect is indeed greater than one plus one. Two, so five thousand spiritual stones is reasonable, the merchant must make a little profit!
After getting the things, a few people didn't stay, mainly because they stayed in these two shops for too long. It was already noon, and they were still more than half way away from the city!
"Don't leave yet, let me take a look -" Tong Yi just casually glanced at the roadside, and she discovered something unusual.
Yan Feiyue and others immediately felt blessed and followed behind Tongtong. The person who set up the stall was a female cultivator of the first level of Jindan. She had a sad face, and there was a well-behaved little girl of two or three years old sitting next to her.
"You adults are free to take a look. We can discuss whatever price you like-" The female cultivator looked at the monks who were not living in this world, and she was very cautious and a little embarrassed.
Although her clothes have been changed to ordinary silk and satin, her child is still wearing a fourth-level robe. You must know that the lowest level of robe is level four.
"How do you sell this Qiangen?" Tong Yi asked, pointing to a half-dead spiritual plant on the stall.
"To be honest, sir, this rhizome is sick and is already half dead -" the female cultivator did not dare to hide it and said truthfully.
"You have a strong aura of vegetation, so you should be able to take care of spiritual plants. Why don't you cure it and sell it. This is a six-level spiritual plant that is about to grow. It will be eight hundred years old in twenty or thirty years. Well, won't the price you sell it for be higher then?" Tong Yi asked doubtfully.
"To be honest, sir, I know some spiritual grass cultivation techniques, but I'm not that proficient in it. This sixth-level mosaic root was cultivated by my Taoist companion. He is seriously ill now, and I can't take care of these high-level spiritual plants." Zhi, many of them will be like this when they are discovered." The female cultivator was very ashamed when she said this.
"Is your family a casual cultivator?" Yan Feiyue asked curiously. If you have a family, you won't end up living by buying sick spiritual plants!
"Yes, my husband and I came to Xicheng this time to deliver the goods. As a result, my husband was seriously ill, and the spiritual plant was also seriously ill. If we were unable to deliver the spiritual plant as required, we could only pay a liquidated damages——"
Then, the cooperation broke off and they reached a dead end. She really didn't know why it had become like this. This home seemed to have collapsed overnight.
"Do you have any sick spiritual plants close to the year of worship in your family?" Tong Yi looked at the female cultivator and asked.
"Sir, there are still a few more, but they are all at home in the countryside-" The female cultivator nodded, her eyes full of expectation.
"Okay, then take us to your house to take a look!" Tong Yi was indeed interested in the medicinal materials of the female nun's house, so she motioned to the female nun to collect the things.
The female cultivator closed the stall, put it into the storage bag with a wave of her hand, picked up the little girl, and walked to the outermost area.
Yan Feiyue watched as she walked further and further, and finally arrived at a small mountain village. She couldn't help but curiously said: "I thought that all the shops in Xicheng were full of shops! It turns out there are mountain villages!"
"The main reason is that we can't afford to live in an inn in the city, so we come to rent a house in the countryside, which makes fellow Taoists laugh." The female cultivator said with some embarrassment.
"No, it's our first time in Xicheng. We're just out of curiosity." Yan Feiyue explained quickly when she saw the female cultivator's embarrassment.
Loongxin looked at the two-room pastoral house in front of him and found it very interesting. Just as he was about to say a few words of appreciation, he heard the sound of coughing coming from inside the house.
"Cough cough——, cough cough cough——"
"The spiritual plants are in that hut. A few adults can watch as they please. I'll go see my husband first -" the female cultivator finished speaking in a panic, put her daughter down, and trotted into the house.
As soon as the female cultivator entered the room, she saw a sickly man lying on his side on the bed, coughing into a ball. She quickly helped him up, gave him a sip of water, and said happily:
"Husband, please cough slowly. I should be able to buy you some low-level lung-nourishing pills today."
Although Shentu and others heard the noise inside, they couldn't go in to disturb them. Tong Yi, Wei Sheng Suwen, and Qi Guanyu went into the pharmacy to check.
Tong Yi saw the square fields displayed in the house, and then looked at the spiritual plants planted on them. She looked at each other in tacit understanding with Wei Sheng and Guan Yu, and then the three of them walked out of the pharmacy.
The female nun who had taken care of her husband also took her daughter and waited at the door anxiously.
"I wonder if I can take a look at your husband's condition. I am a level six alchemist." Tong Yi did not make any judgments, but wanted to verify her suspicions first.
"..." These words were completely beyond the female cultivator's expectation. Could it be that their family had really met a noble person? But when she thought of the current situation at home, her expression immediately became depressed, but she still managed to cheer up and said:
"Then I'm sorry, sir. The smell in the house is not very good. I hope you can bear with me."
Yan Feiyue followed a few people into the house and saw a dark-faced, skinny man leaning on the bed. He was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect the guests to come in.
The Tong family sat on the stool beside the bed, took out the jade pillow and placed it on the edge of the bed, signaling the man to put his hand up. The man glanced at his wife, and after getting a nod from her, he put his hand on her.
Tong Yi mobilized the spiritual power in her body and transmitted it into the other person's body through the place where her fingertips met. The result shocked Tong Yi. The man's meridians had turned black, and even the calf bones of his legs began to show signs of discoloration. black spots.
"Did you become unable to walk recently?" Tong Yi took back the jade pillow and looked at the female cultivator beside the bed and asked.
"Yes, we arrived in Xicheng a month ago, rented this place, and put everything in place. Then my husband started to get sick. His current cultivation level has dropped from the fifth level of Golden Core to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment——" The female cultivator was a little confused when she talked about this. She really couldn't figure out why it was like this.
Tong Yi nodded clearly and said, "Your husband has been poisoned by a poison called black jade bone poison. This poison will spread from the meridians to the bones of the body. It will take about five years to cause death. Your husband has been poisoned." It must have been more than a year.”
"What?" The female cultivator was very surprised when she heard this, and looked at her husband who was equally surprised.
"You should be taking care of the low-level spiritual plants in your family, so there is no problem, but the reason why the high-level spiritual plants are sick is inseparable from your husband's poison." What Tong Yi did not say was that waiting for the man After Xiu's attack, his wife and daughter are expected to start showing symptoms as well.
"Let me check the pulse of you and your daughter!" Tong Yi said, looking at the dumbfounded couple in the room.
"Excuse me, sir—" The female cultivator quickly pushed her daughter in front of Tong Yi. She was very nervous. She was mainly afraid that her precious girl would also be poisoned.
The girl's condition is not bad, there is no toxin in her body, but the condition of the female cultivator is not so good. The relationship between the couple should be very good. Dual cultivation leads to frequent exchange of spiritual power, and the muscles and veins of the female cultivator's lower body have begun to turn black.
"Your daughter is not poisoned, but the meridians in your wife's lower body have begun to turn black -" When Tong Yi told the result, she actually saw the Taoist couple heaving a sigh of relief. It seemed that they were really happy. Love your daughter.
"Sir, do you have a way to detoxify the poison? I am willing to trade my family inheritance for life-saving medicine -" The man on the bed raised his upper body with great effort, faced Tong Yi and the others, and asked with clasped fists.
Tong Yi did not answer, but Wei Sheng Suwen asked:
"Although you are casual cultivators, with your ability to cultivate spiritual plants, haven't you ever thought of joining the family?"
"Your Excellency, you don't know. We are monks who came from the outer continent. The situation in the mainland has been unstable in the past few years, and the time for the family ranking competition is still far away. No one in the thirty major families is willing to recruit monks like us.
In order to avoid being deported, we were introduced by the short-term rental certificate office at the port and temporarily joined the Huang family, the number one Zhong family in Nancheng.
My husband and I have crafts and live a pretty good life. The Huang family has always wanted to keep us, but my husband wants to join a big family. After all, a big family has more resources and opportunities, and also has the opportunity to come into contact with high-level spiritual plants. More will help him learn and pass on skills.
This year, the window period for the big family to recruit children has opened. After we completed the settlement with the Huang family, we were going to make a fortune in Xicheng, so we went to Beicheng to find a big family to join us.
Who would have thought that before the spiritual plants were sold, my husband fell ill, and then the high-level spiritual plants also began to become ill. We have only come into contact with the Huang family when we came to the Inner Continent. It must be that their family coveted the husband's inheritance, so they poisoned him——" The female cultivator said that she was already crying. She really didn't expect that the bright future of the Inner Continent would actually be Such.
"According to what you said, it was undoubtedly the Huang family who poisoned me." Longxin also sighed. This is the end of having a huge treasure but lack of strength. Fortunately, they returned to the Qi family in a low-key manner, otherwise the result would be really disastrous. That’s easy to say!
"I am indeed interested in your family's cultivation heritage, and it is a piece of cake for me to detoxify your body, but you have suffered a loss in this transaction.
It would be quite resource- and time-consuming for your husband to get back to his original state. In this case, you are in no position to negotiate with the big family. Therefore, until your husband recovers, no big family will accept your family.
If you don't mind, you can join the Qi family. The Qi family will help you recuperate your body, and your daughter can also attend the Qi family's school. When your body recovers, you can climb up on your own. The system of a big family has always been is very fair.
I'll go to quarantine to make medicine for you, you guys think about it -" Tong Yi said and walked out of the room with Wei Sheng.
