Changyue lowered her head and looked at the herbs he placed on the stall. Ice crystal grass, snow cold flower, white grass root... they were all water-eating herbs, so she asked doubtfully:
"Why are there so many water and ice medicinal materials and no other types?"
The stall owner smiled and said: "Hey~ Daqingshan. For some reason, not only is the mountain blocked by heavy snow, but even the ordinary medicinal materials have disappeared. However, these ice-type medicinal herbs appear as if they are free of charge.
It's just a pity that most of them are ordinary medicinal materials, and you can't make much money. It would be great if you can catch a strange beast...
Hey~ It’s just ordinary warriors like me who mostly die when encountering strange beasts.
It is safer to pick herbs. "
Seeing that Chang Yue listened carefully, the stall owner kept talking for a long time.
"There are still strange beasts in Daqingshan now?" Chang Yue asked in surprise.
"Yes, yes, many people have seen it. It is said that those who failed to come back from Daqingshan were eaten by strange beasts!" the stall owner said with some gloating.
His own strength was low and he couldn't do anything except collect herbs, and he didn't dare to go deep into the Daqing Mountain. Seeing that others could catch strange beasts made him feel uncomfortable.
After hearing the stall owner's words, Chang Yue fell into deep thought. Why did she feel a little bad? Alien beasts that were once extremely rare have now begun to appear frequently in Daqingshan.
Are there really so many strange beasts escaping from Little Blessed Land?
Chang Yue finally picked some common medicinal materials that she could use in making elixirs from the stall owner, and the stall owner sent them away with a smile on his face.
Changyue walked along the long street, silently observing the surrounding vendors along the way, and found that most of them had some cultivation level, but they were not very high. They were generally at the third or fourth level of the KaiMai Realm, and even those from the seventh level of the KaiMai Realm were above. Not common.
At this time, Chang Yue suddenly caught a glimpse of someone selling elixirs in a corner not far away.
The person selling the elixir was an unusually thin man in black. He wore a cloak, and the shadow cast by the cloak obscured his face. The whole person gave people a lifeless feeling.
I saw a wooden sign erected in front of his stall, and it read:
One pill of Blood Burning Pill can directly increase your cultivation level by one level. The price is 30 gold per pill.
Corpse Transforming Water: One drop can melt gold and melt iron. It is necessary for killing people and destroying corpses. It sells for 50 silver per drop.
Chun Qing Powder: Take a sniff, and the iron man turns into soft fingers, and the jade girl turns into a lustful girl. The price is 10 gold per pack.
…
Changyue took a closer look and was immediately shocked by the content on the wooden sign. You are not a serious medicine person, are you? Moreover, the efficacy of the medicine is extremely exaggerated. At first glance, people would think that it is selling fake medicine. No wonder no one patronizes it.
"Is everything written on your wooden sign true? Can the Burning Blood Pill really improve your cultivation by a large level?" Chang Yue looked at the stall owner and asked.
If it can directly improve one level of cultivation, wouldn't it be a miracle medicine? Why do warriors need to work so hard in training?
And "Blood Burning Pill", why does this name sound so awkward? It has the same naming style as the elixirs created by the Blood Demon, such as the Demon Blood Pill...
There is also corpse-transforming water and spring love powder... Could this person be a demonic person?
This black market claims that you can buy anything, sell anything, and anyone can come. It can be said to be quite a mixed bag.
Moreover, there is no guarantee of quality or reputation when buying and selling things here. If you are cheated, you have no choice but to admit your mistake.
"Of course it's true. Children are innocent." His hoarse voice came from the stall owner's cloak.
He did not lie, but he just hid some information, such as the Burning Blood Pill, which can indeed improve a warrior's cultivation level by one level, but the side effect is that the user can only live for three more hours.
Moreover, this elixir is ineffective against warriors above the Condensing Yuan Realm.
Changyue looked suspicious, but still said: "Then give me a bottle!" She planned to go back and study it to see if this elixir was really that magical, or if it contained some secrets.
As for the other elixirs here... their effects were too weird, and she wasn't interested.
"Ten pills in a bottle, Chenghui three hundred gold." The stall owner threw a medicine bottle into Chang Yue's hand.
Changyue opened the medicine bottle and smelled it, and an indescribable smell of medicine hit her face.
Ugh~
It smells bad enough!
Putting the Blood Burning Pill into his arms, Chang Yue took out three golden tickets and handed them to the stall owner.
The stall owner took the golden ticket, raised his head and glanced at Changyue cryptically, and Changyue finally saw his face clearly.
This man's hair was gray, and the skin on his face was as dry as tree bark. If it weren't for hearing his voice, Chang Yue could hardly tell his gender.
Changyue just glanced at the man and left.
Along the way, Chang Yue gradually felt a little disappointed. Although the black market was bustling and sold a variety of things, there were not many things she could use.
Suddenly she saw a very busy shop in front of the shop. The plaque on the shop door read "Fengshuang Weapons Shop" in large characters.
It turned out to be a place selling weapons, no wonder it was so lively. For some warriors, the importance of weapons is self-evident.
Most of the vendors in this black market sell things by setting up stalls, and there are not even a few shops on the entire street.
This "Wind and Frost Weapon Shop" shouldn't be simple.
Chang Yue thought of the "Tian Xin Archery" that the young monk and the others had given her not long ago, and she walked towards the Feng Shuang weapons shop.
She has long wanted to practice this martial arts, because judging from the content, this martial arts is very advanced. Moreover, Changyue felt that she just lacked a technique that could enable long-range attacks, and "Tianxin Archery" was just right.
Now all he needs is a longbow that he can practice with.
Changyue walked into the store and saw that the shelves were filled with swords, guns, swords and halberds, which was really dazzling.
Changyue casually picked up a long knife from the shelf, shook it in his hand, and knocked it with his hand.
I saw that the blade of the long knife was completely silver-white, and the blade was shining brightly. The reflected figure was clearly visible, and it made a crisp buzzing sound as the long moon struck.
What a knife! ! !
Chang Yue exclaimed inwardly and put the knife back on the shelf casually and reluctantly.
Although this knife is good, she already has an iron wood sword, so she can't be half-hearted about it. The iron wood sword is still very suitable for her.
At this time, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old came over. She had a childish face and a little baby fat, but she was at least 1.8 meters tall. She was well-proportioned and slender, and walked calmly and powerfully. At a glance, she could tell that she had been accustomed to it all year round. Wu.
Condensation realm warrior! Changyue judged in her heart that this store was indeed not simple. This was the first Condensation Realm warrior she had seen in the black market.
"Girl, how can I help you?" The girl's words were soft and waxy, like a lark, which was very inconsistent with her image.
Changyue liked her voice very much.
"I want a long bow!" Chang Yue looked around the store and didn't find any bow.
"Ah!!!" the girl exclaimed, "Can a girl actually know how to use a bow? It's rare for girls to learn this!"
This is true. There is a big gap between women and men in terms of physical strength. Most of the martial arts practices are dexterity. For example, the Weeping Blood Sword practiced by Chang Yue is not good at strength.
But bow-drawing is different. It has very high requirements on the practitioner's strength and physical strength. Although there are women who practice bows, there are not as many as men, and most of them practice light bows.
The lethality of light bows and heavy bows are completely different.
However, Changyue has been bathing in a potion refined from golden scale ginseng, and her strength and physical strength have long been far superior to ordinary warriors, so she still has an advantage in practicing bows.
After hearing the girl's words, Changyue waved her hands and said, "I haven't started learning yet, but I'm planning to learn."
"I see." The girl suddenly realized, "Since you are a beginner, come with me."
Then the girl enthusiastically pulled Chang Yue to the other side. Only then did Chang Yue discover that there was another door on the right side of the store.
The girl opened the door and walked in with Chang Yue, and the two of them came to another room.
If the previous rooms sold commonly used weapons, such as swords, now most of the weapons in front of Changyue were less popular types, such as axes, sticks, fans, umbrellas, ropes, etc.
Of course there are bows, and there are many types of bows.
The girl walked to the shelf with bows, picked up a short bow and said to Changyue: "Since you are a beginner, let's try this bow. It is smart and light, and is most suitable for girls who are just learning archery!"
Changyue took the short bow and drew it to full length without any effort. The girl next to her opened her mouth in surprise.
"Wow, girl, I didn't expect you to be so strong!" As she said this, she couldn't help but pinch Changyue's biceps.
Changyue loosened the bow string and sighed, "This bow doesn't seem to suit me well."
"Indeed, indeed..." The girl nodded repeatedly. After saying that, she picked up a heavy bow on the shelf and handed it to Chang Yue. "You try this again. I see that you are very strong. Maybe you can draw this heavy bow."
Changyue took the heavy bow and found that the weight of this bow was more than twice as heavy as the previous short bow. She flicked the bow string, and the tight bow string made a "collapse" sound.
"Try it quickly." The girl urged.
Changyue nodded, casually pulled up the bow string, and once again easily drew the heavy bow to full capacity.
The girl's mouth was now open enough to hold an egg.
"You are amazing!"
Changyue frowned, "Don't you have any other bows?"
"Try this one again!" The girl took out a bow again and handed it to Changyue.
In this way, Chang Yue tried several more pictures in succession, but still couldn't find one he was satisfied with.
"What should I do? I didn't expect you, girl, to be a strong man even though you are not tall!" the girl said with a distressed look on her face.
Chang Yue was speechless after hearing this. Compared with you, there are probably not many tall girls.
"It seems I have to let you try that bow!" the girl suddenly said, "I don't know if Master will scold me when he comes back!"
As she spoke, the girl walked to the shelf on the other side and gently pulled a lever hidden on the shelf. She heard a rumble and one wall of the room slowly opened.
I saw hanging on the wall a huge bow with a completely black body and a string as white as snow. This bow was almost as tall as Chang Yue's body.
"Hey hoo~hey hoo~hey hoo~"
The girl hummed as she took the giant bow off the wall and moved it to Chang Yue with great effort.
"Here, girl! Try this again. This is my master's proud work. The bow is made from the spine of an ice crocodile that a warrior recently hunted on Daqing Mountain. The bow string is made of silver and gold. Made of finely twisted silk, if it doesn’t satisfy you, then there’s really nothing I can do!”
Changyue took the black bow and immediately felt her palms feel heavy. It was heavier than all the bows she had tried before, but she didn't feel heavy, she just felt it was just right.
The whole body of the bow was cold and delicate to the touch. Changyue fell in love with it instantly.
She pulled the bowstring and injected a little bit of Qi into it. The next second, an arrow that was as crystal clear as jade appeared on the bowstring.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't cum, girl, please don't cum!"
The girl quickly called Chang Yue, feeling the terrifying aura coming from the arrow. She was afraid that Chang Yue would shoot through her weapons shop with an arrow.
Changyue loosened the bowstring, and the arrows on the string slowly dissipated, and the girl breathed a sigh of relief.
"This bow is good. How much does it cost?"
The girl frowned when she heard this. Her master was not at home and did not tell her how much the bow should be sold for.
Seeing that the girl was in trouble, Chang Yue said, "Since you don't know how to price it, then I will exchange a few elixirs for this bow!"
As she spoke, Changyue took out a wooden box from the package behind her. This package was specially carried by Changyue to cover up people's eyes.
She opened the wooden box and saw three bottles of elixirs inside.
"Is the girl an alchemist?" The girl looked at the medicine bottle in the box in surprise, "What kind of medicine is in it?"
Changyue pointed to the first medicine bottle and explained: "This is a detoxification pill made from seven-color flowers as the main ingredient. It can detoxify hundreds of poisons!"
"Can it cure hundreds of poisons?" The girl exclaimed and opened the medicine bottle. A fresh fragrance of medicine suddenly hit her nostrils, "Is it really made from seven-color flowers?"
The girl has naturally heard of the name of the seven-color flower.
"That's right." Chang Yue nodded, "There are five pills in this bottle."
"What about this bottle?" the girl asked, pointing to the second medicine bottle.
"This is the Ice Soul Pill refined from mind-calming fruits. It can calm the mind and prevent warriors from going crazy. There are twenty pills in this bottle."
"What about the last bottle?"
"The last bottle is Wu Teng Pill made from Wu Zhen Teng. You must have heard of Wu Zhen Teng's name. This Wu Teng Pill is a more effective elixir than taking Wu Zhen Teng directly. It is an excellent medicine to assist cultivation and increase Qi and blood. Waiting for the elixir.
You can try this. "
Of course the girl had heard of Wu Zhenteng's name, and she immediately opened the medicine bottle, poured one out and stuffed it into her mouth.
As the medicine dissipated, a vigorous flow of energy and blood immediately surged through the girl's meridians, scaring her to quickly activate her skills to suppress it. Now was not the time to practice.
"It is indeed the best elixir!" The girl looked at Changyue in amazement, "I have done this business, the elixir belongs to me, and the bow belongs to you!"
Chang Yue immediately smiled with satisfaction after hearing this, "I wonder if this bow has a name?"
The girl waved her hands and said: "It's all your own. Of course you name it yourself!"
Changyue nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and directly carried Wu Gong behind her back.
The girl happily sent Chang Yue out of the shop and said enthusiastically: "Girl, next time you need weapons, come to me and I will give you a discount. Oh~ By the way, my name is Ding Ning, don't forget it, girl~"
Changyue walked around the black market for a while with Wu Gong on her back, and felt that there was nothing to buy, so she decided to leave home.
In addition to the lively streets in this black market, there is also a sparkling river. At this time, a painting boat is floating on the river. The candles are brightly lit on it, and the sound of orchestral strings and bamboos is endless.
A man and a woman were sitting on the bow of the boat. They were leisurely sipping wine and admiring the moonlight.
"City Lord, your worldly painting is really amazing. It can actually be transformed into a real space. It is indeed a rare treasure!" The woman among the two looked at the lively long street not far away and said with admiration.
"Not enough!" the man opposite said while shaking his head.
The stronger the atmosphere of the mortal world in his worldly painting, the more real the scenes inside are, which is why he went to great lengths to open such a black market.
This black market is not only found in Mingyue City, but also in other cities. They are actually just sub-realms of the real world of mortals!
"Huh?" The woman suddenly exclaimed. She pointed at a woman on the shore and said, "Look, that little girl is carrying the bow that Mr. Mo just made recently?"
The little girl the woman talks about is Chang Yue.
The man glanced at Chang Yue and said, "Indeed."
"I didn't expect Mr. Mo to sell the bow so quickly and give it to a little girl." The woman said sadly, "Speaking of which, it was you who killed the ice crocodile who made the bow!"
The man shook his head, but smiled.
