"If you encounter any problems in the future, feel free to come to me. By the way, Xuangang Jue is a secret method within the sect and must not be passed on to anyone else. In addition, these are some of my insights from practice, and I also have a magic weapon. Take it with me!" , Uncle Zhong handed several books and a magical weapon to Zhou Yang.
"Uncle Master..." Zhou Yang was very moved. He took the book and the magic weapon and almost took out the alchemy key, but in the end he held it back. This matter was of great concern. Uncle Master's status was not high. It is difficult to preserve it even after knowing it. In the future, when you are successful in practicing Taoism, you can repay your uncle.
"You have quite good qualifications. Practicing outside for a long time is not conducive to your growth. You may have another opportunity after you go out. You still have a long way to go, so go for it on your own!"
"Uncle Master!"
"Go, I will inform Tiehu and let him take care of you."
"Master, take care!" Zhou Yang bowed deeply to Master Zhong and then left the room.
A sigh came from within the room.
Zhou Yang said goodbye to Uncle Zhong and returned to his room. He and Tie Hu shared a room. Tie Hu was not there at this time. Zhou Yang looked elsewhere and said that he had gone to the mine for a shift.
He returned to the house and changed his clothes. He wrapped some of his belongings in a cloth bag, took out his parents' memorial tablets with great care and put them gently into the package, and then walked towards the mountain gate.
"Hey, isn't this Junior Brother Zhou? You're fine! What, you want to go down the mountain?" As soon as he reached the competition square, a group of four people stopped him.
Zhou Yang knew these people, three outer disciples and one inner disciple. The one who spoke was the outer disciple He Dongluo, and the one in the middle was the inner disciple He Dongcang. The two were brothers. It is said that the two of them have backers among the senior leaders of the sect and have always ignored other disciples. Especially He Dongluo, there is no shortage of spiritual stones, but he is only in the middle stage of Kaiyuan. He has always disliked Zhou Yang. If it weren't for Master Zhong's protection, Zhou Yang's life would have been even more difficult.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Yang was no longer a disciple of the sect. He didn't call them senior, nor did he reply respectfully. He just asked casually.
"You don't treat me and the others as senior brothers. My eldest brother is an inner disciple and his cultivation level is much higher than yours. Don't you know any etiquette?"
"You've already been expelled, why are you pretending to be anything like that!" Ye Yu said in a condescending tone to the other two outer disciples.
"I'm sorry, I am no longer a disciple of the Ziyuan Sect. Please help yourself." Of course, your sister, I have been removed from the membership, and you still have to say it! Precisely because I have been removed from the list, I don’t need to offend you.
"Humph, even if you become a casual cultivator, you don't know how to be reverent. You need capital to be tough. You won't live long if you do this!" Cangyin, Hedong*.
"No need to worry." Zhou Yang didn't say much and walked straight to the mountain gate.
"This kid is so damn lucky, I thought he would have died outside!" He Dongluo's eyes were cold, and he said viciously: "If it weren't for the fact that the sect was not allowed to fight at will, he would have been destroyed long ago."
Another outer disciple whispered: "How about we get him in the city?"
"Forget it, we have important things to do, so don't get entangled with a young boy." He Dongcang looked at Zhou Yang's back and said, but in his heart he felt that this boy had become a little special.
Zhou Yang actually hasn't rented a house yet, and he is afraid that Uncle Zhong will worry, but he has already made a plan in his mind. First, he will sell his useless materials in Free Trade Market, exchange them for some spiritual stones, and then rent a house with ground fire. He practiced in a quiet room and tried to practice alchemy.
Generally speaking, the purchase price of the store is higher than that of Free Trade Market, but it is for the purchase of large quantities or higher-end materials. It is better not to make the store clerk look down on his goods.
There were thirty pieces of first-grade spiritual stones in the bag given by Uncle Zhong, which was equivalent to one and a half months of his regular supply. He originally had four pieces. The materials for the two green wolves could be sold for more than twenty pieces, and the two star leaf grasses were worth ten pieces. , the giant red spider and the flaming snake gall can also be exchanged for three or four pieces, and three boar skins can be exchanged for three or four pieces.
There are thirty-six bell-red trees, but he won't sell them, while the rock grass and yellow grass are worthless.
He often hangs out in the market and knows the prices of various materials clearly, and he is also well aware of the price reductions of small merchants and hawkers. After thinking about it for a while, he realized that after selling the materials and adding the ones given by his uncle, there were about seventy first-grade spiritual stones. This was the largest amount of spiritual stones he had ever made since he started practicing.
I was thinking happily in my heart, and the sadness of leaving the master and the unhappiness just now were all gone.
Free Market does not open every day, but opens three times within ten days, one large and two small, that is, the second time is small and the once is large. The first day is a big market, and the third and seventh days are small markets. Today is the seventh day of the lunar month, and it is a small market, but there are not too many people.
"Have a look. It's a powerful magic weapon. It was made by a master. If you miss it today, you will regret it for the rest of your life. You sold it cheaply!"
"A family heirloom, it has miraculous healing effects. Don't miss it if you pass by!"
Each stall is placed in the middle of the road. Some set up wooden boards and put various materials on it for sale. Some just spread straw mats directly on the ground to sell, while pedestrians walked on both sides of the stalls. Look, there are still voices of bargaining from time to time.
"Hey, Brother Zhou, I haven't seen you for a while, why are you free today?"
"Haha, shopkeeper Xiao, long time no see!"
"What kind of shopkeeper am I? I'm making fun of my brother again. By the way, Brother Zhou, are you going shopping or looking at something today?"
Shopkeeper Xiao is not tall, very thin, has squinted eyes, and always smiles when he sees people. He is at the ninth level of Kaiyuan. He is very familiar with Zhou Yang, and he is quite a down-to-earth person. After Zhou Yang was deceived by profiteers for a while, he settled down to have sex with him. trade.
"Look at these things." Zhou Yang took out the materials and placed them on the straw mat in his booth.
"That's right. Star Leaf Grass, Flame Snake Gallbladder, and the things on Green Wolf. Brother Zhou has made a fortune! Are these materials going to be sold?"
"Yes, look at how many spiritual stones it is worth."
"Okay. Brother Zhou, the materials on the giant red spider are not valuable. As for the other materials, let me do the math... Oh, all the materials can be exchanged for thirty-eight first-grade spiritual stones. What do you think?" Shopkeeper Xiao picked through a pile of materials. After a while, the price was given.
"Deal." Zhou Yang said simply, this was almost what he had planned.
Shopkeeper Xiao is also very happy, this business is not a small one.
"By the way, Shopkeeper Xiao, do you have an alchemy furnace here? Just use it." Zhou Yang asked after collecting the spirit stones.
"Alchemy furnace, I don't have it here, but my friend may have it. Let me show it to you. The price shouldn't be expensive." Shopkeeper Xiao said.
"Approximately how many spirit stones?"
"I'm not sure. If it's an old one, there should be dozens of spiritual stones. Brother Zhou wants to practice elixirs?" Shopkeeper Xiao stared at Zhou Yang in confusion.
"Do you think I'm an alchemist? I'm used by the elders in the sect." Zhou Yang said casually.
"Oh. There are not many people buying and selling alchemy furnaces in Free Square City. I can only give it a try." Shopkeeper Xiao said again.
"Okay, then you go ahead and I'll take care of the stall for you." Zhou Yang nodded.
"Okay, I'll be right back." After saying that, Shopkeeper Xiao left in a hurry.
After about tea time, shopkeeper Xiao and another tall and thin stall owner came over.
"This is Shopkeeper Li." Shopkeeper Xiao introduced.
"Shopkeeper Li, please be polite."
"This little brother is very polite. This is the alchemy furnace. Take a look." As he said this, shopkeeper Li handed over an alchemy furnace. The alchemy furnace is not big, and should be made of fine copper. It has three legs and two ears, and has a lid. It can also be called an alchemy cauldron.
"This furnace has been used to practice elixirs, so it is an old thing." Shopkeeper Li said truthfully.
Shopkeeper Li's eyes were darting around, and he seemed to be a very shrewd businessman. Zhou Yang didn't understand much about this, but he believed in Shopkeeper Xiao's vision.
"How many spirit stones?" Zhou Yang looked around for a moment and asked.
"You are a friend of Lao Xiao, and Lao Xiao and I have also been friends for many years. Let's do this. This furnace is an old thing. I will only charge you thirty-five yuan for a first-grade spiritual stone. How about it?" Shopkeeper Li looked like he didn't want to make money from you. .
Zhou Yang inadvertently glanced at Shopkeeper Xiao. Shopkeeper Xiao shook his head without revealing any trace, and then said: "Shopkeeper Li, since we are friends, how about I give you a real price, thirty yuan for a first-grade spiritual stone?"
"This... I'll tell you the truth, little brother. In business, a piece of skin is sold for goods, and a horse is sold for four hooves. If I play with this thing, it will be as bright and shiny as a new furnace. But little brother, you are an old man. My friends, I don’t need to show off a good appearance to sell them, they are all my own family! Don’t you think so?” Shopkeeper Li’s small eyes rolled, and then he said with a sincere face and serious words.
"A businessman is a businessman, and even the dead can tell the truth!" If Zhou Yang was a young boy who was inexperienced in the world, he would definitely be moved by Shopkeeper Li's sincerity.
However, he had been struggling in the market for several years. He was not Wu Xia Amen, so how could he be frightened by his few words, so he said: "What Shopkeeper Li said is that we are our own people, of course we don't need to be like that. But it is precisely because we are one of our own that I tell the truth, brother, I only have this little spiritual stone with me!" After saying that, he spread his hands and said helplessly.
Shopkeeper Li rolled his little eyes again, knowing that the little guy in front of him was not easy to fool, so he glanced at Shopkeeper Xiao, gritted his teeth and said: "Hey, I can't get enough of this price, and I haven't even earned half of the spiritual stone from you. Brother’s!”
"Okay, here are thirty spiritual stones, I want them!" Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang quickly took out the spiritual stones from his cloth bag and handed them to Shopkeeper Li.
It took a lot of effort, but it saved five large pieces of spiritual stones, and it was worth it.
"Come on, little brother Zhou is quick to do things. I've made you my friend. Please hold the alchemy furnace." Shopkeeper Li said something polite, wrapped the alchemy furnace in a cloth, and handed it to Zhou Yang with both hands.
Zhou Yang took the package, clasped his fists and said, "Okay, I won't delay you two!"
"Okay, little brother Zhou, walk slowly!"
