The flame essence has spread to less than half of the talisman, and the amount of energy consumed at this time has reached an indescribable level.
At this moment, the golden light in Ji Liao's eyes disappeared, revealing the pair of dark eyes again. At the same time, the Qilin True Fire between his two fingers also faded.
At the moment when the Qilin True Fire disappeared, the talisman on his fingertips suddenly trembled, and then a ball of fire immediately appeared, and within a moment it turned into a ball of ashes.
Ji Liao had a smile on his face and nodded lightly. He was not upset about this failure but was very happy.
In this attempt, he found a feasible method and also recorded the context of some high-level talismans. Now that he has these, it is enough.
What he has to do now is write down what he got today. He understands that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
He believed that as long as he memorized these things, he would not have to work so hard at the beginning when trying to reverse the talisman in the future. It would not take long for him to figure out this high-level talisman.
Ji Liao sat up cross-legged, closed his eyes slightly and breathed out, recalling the scene just now and remembering it in his mind.
"Dong dong dong." Three sounds of knocking on the stone slab came faintly from the entrance of the secret room.
Ji Liao, who was cross-legged, opened his eyes, glanced at the door lightly, then stood up and walked over.
This sound was an agreement between him and Lu Zhu. As soon as it was dawn, the people outside knocked on the bed board three times, and the people in the secret room had to leave immediately to avoid attracting the attention of people outside.
In a flash of light, Ji Liao's figure fell into his and Lu Zhu's hut.
He pointed far away at the open bed board.
Just a buzzing sound was heard, and the bed board was closed.
Seeing Ji Liao coming out, Lu Zhu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Junior Brother Ji, you look haggard. Did you study some heaven-reaching technique down there last night?"
Ji Liao frowned, "I wish I had the power to reach heaven." After saying that, he glanced outside the door and said, "Let's go, it's time to work!"
The door opened, and Ji Liao and Lu Zhu walked out. The two of them stretched themselves out in unison and let out a happy moan.
"Hey, Zhang Fan and Tiezhu, are you just getting up?" At this time, a passerby stopped and asked Ji Liao.
This man was only sixteen or seventeen years old. His name was Jiang He, and he was a native of Huangxi. However, because of his poor family, he had been working as a waiter in a Huiyuan store for a long time, and he also lived in the Huiyuan store for food and accommodation.
He also has some cultivation, but he is only at the second level of Naqi.
Half of the member shops are, like Jiang He, natives of Huangxi. Ye Tong hires them not only because of the low cost of hiring locals, but also because they understand the local customs. Of course, because of the There are a few Huangxi people so that Badie City will not make things difficult for Huiyuan shops. However, these are secret rules and will not be brought to the surface.
Said.
"Ah, I slept late last night!" Lu Zhu replied with a smile.
In a month, Ji Liao and Lu Zhu have become familiar with the people here. Due to their personalities, Lu Zhu usually has a good relationship with these people. Although Ji Liao has no conflict with them, these people in the store can It can be seen that Ji Liao is a person who is not easy to get close to. Usually he just says hello.
Jiang He glanced around, and with a sneaky look, he approached Ji Liao and whispered, "Hey, I heard the boss's wife is coming over today."
Ji Liao and Lu Zhu looked at each other, expecting something interesting to happen, but they didn't expect that Jiang He's appearance meant this.
Ye Tong has been doing business in the two places for many years and has already established a family in Huangxi. His wife is a very beautiful woman from Huangxi. She is also more than thirty years younger than Ye Tong. The two of them stand together. Being together is like being a father and daughter.
Although the woman from Huangxi is good-looking, she is really a bit unruly in temperament. She rarely comes to the store, but whenever she comes to the store, she looks like she is arrogant and bossy. As long as she does something that makes her unhappy, she will yell at her. The waiters below were all silent and did not dare to speak out.
"Hahaha, then we should be more careful when working today." Lu Zhu laughed and patted Jiang He's shoulder.
Ji Liao also grinned in response.
When Jiang He saw Ji Liao and Lu Zhu looking indifferent, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. When the shopkeeper came back last month, Lu Zhu was injured. Ye Tong explained to these guys that the caravan had been hijacked. Fortunately, The four of them were in the same airship, and they escaped with their lives under desperate protection. Therefore, the shopkeeper favored these two people and was much more tolerant than others.
"Let's go and work!" Ji Liao said calmly and walked towards the shop in the front yard first.
Huiyuan Store is relatively famous in Badie City, and its scale can be ranked in the middle and upper reaches.
There are three attic floors in the shop. The first floor mostly sells less expensive things. Generally, only some monks from Aragashi who are below the seventh level of Naqi will buy and sell things here. It is also the floor with the most people coming and going.
The things sold on the second floor of the shop are much more valuable than those on the first floor. There are not only many precious spiritual herbs, spiritual materials, and even precious elixirs such as Condensation Pills, which are much more valuable than those on the first floor. The first floor is much freer, and at the same time, people who are not trusted by Ye Tong will not be assigned to work on the second floor.
The items sold on this third floor are even more valuable. People who are not above the thirteenth level are not qualified to go to the third level because they are not qualified to go to the third level. Because most of the things sold there are of too high a level, Ye Tong spent a lot of money to hire A monk in the foundation building period of Huangxi has been appointed to guard it all year round.
As for the foundation-building monk who usually never stepped out of the attic, Ji Liao had only heard about it and had never seen him in the past month.
Of course Ye Tong trusted Ji Liao and Lu Zhu, but they had just arrived here not long ago, and Ye Tong was not easy to handle.
They were sent to the second level.
The first floor of Huiyuan Shop is very large and extremely luxuriously decorated.
Ji Liao and Lu Zhu walked in. At this time, several people had opened the door of the shop. Without saying anything, they picked up the rag and wiped every corner of the shop.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.
"Sir, please see that this Snow Moon Grass is at least eighty years old. Looking at the appearance of this spiritual grass, it definitely grows in a place with pure spiritual energy, and the spirituality contained in it is also excellent. If you buy it back to refine the elixir, it will definitely greatly improve the level of the elixir. Eighty low-grade spiritual stones are already very cheap." Ji Liao was standing in front of a man with only the fifth level of Naqi at this time, holding a A jade box introduced to him a moon-white spiritual grass inside.
"Eighty low-grade spiritual stones are too expensive. The most I can offer is sixty." The man shook his head and said slowly.
"My lord, what are you missing from your outfit by the twenty spiritual stones?" Ji Liao remained calm and bargained with the man with a smile.
The man frowned slightly, thought for a moment and asked, "Can you, a young boy, decide on this price?"
Ji Liao seemed to have expected it, his expression did not change at all, and he nodded, "You see what you said, of course I can do it. If the shopkeeper has to do everything himself, why do we guys have to do it!"
The man pondered for a moment after hearing the words. After a long time, he nodded slightly and said, "In this case, let's make a choice. I will keep the seventy low-grade spiritual stones and this spiritual herb. If it doesn't work, then I will look elsewhere. look."
"Uh..." Ji Liao showed a troubled expression. After a long time, he let out a long sigh with a look of pain, "Okay, I have made you my friend today, even if it is a punishment from the shopkeeper. I also admit it when I come down, seventy coins is seventy coins, I have the final say on this matter."
"Yeah!" The man nodded, tapped the storage bag on his waist, and took out seventy low-grade spiritual stones.
Ji Liao chuckled, took the spirit stone, and handed over the jade box in his hand.
Looking at the man's retreating figure, Ji Liao shook his head lightly.
"Zhang Fan is awesome." At this time, Jiang He came up and patted Ji Liao's shoulder and said, "It's just Snow Moon Grass, and you can sell it for 70 low-grade spiritual stones."
"You have to know how to watch people's words. Although that person tried his best to suppress himself, it is not difficult to see that he urgently needs Snow Moon Grass. Therefore, as long as the price is not too outrageous, under normal circumstances these people will take action." Ji Liao He replied with a smile.
"Oh, you Shendong people are really all profiteers." Jiang He said with a sigh.
Ji Liao smiled and said nothing.
Not long after, another middle-aged woman suddenly walked in at the gate. This woman was dressed the same as the woman from Huangxi, except that the gauze on her bodice was embroidered with a blooming flower bud, and the gauze skirt on her lower body was hung with many glittering flowers. Fluorescent crystals are used as embellishments, making it look different from ordinary people at first glance.
Her face is slightly gloomy
, seems to be troubled by something, but the fluctuations emanating from his body are clearly from the middle stage of foundation building.
Ji Liao's eyes suddenly flashed.
At the same time, Lu Zhu's movements in the distance also stagnated. He glanced here, but immediately continued to do the work at hand.
"Senior, your Majesty..."
"Jiang He, let me entertain this senior."
Jiang He sensed the fluctuation emanating from the woman who came in, and his eyes lit up. He was about to step forward to speak when Ji Liao called out from behind him.
"Ah?" Jiang He looked back at Ji Liao suspiciously, then smiled, "Okay!"
After speaking, he apologized to the woman and turned around to leave.
"This senior is here, the shop is full of glory." Ji Liao stepped forward and bowed deeply to the woman, saying with a smile.
The woman scanned Ji Liao's body and found that the aura on Ji Liao's body was chaotic, and she could not tell what kind of cultivation he had. She was slightly surprised, but she recovered immediately. Judging from the aura emitted, the aura was weak and could only be said to be three levels of Naqi at best. It looks like a fourth floor.
"Yeah!" The woman snorted softly in her nostrils as a response.
"Senior, I don't know what you want to buy? The store can't say that it has everything, but it will never let you down." Ji Liao asked again.
The woman stared at Ji Liao and said calmly without doubting him, "I want to buy some elixirs that can quickly restore spiritual power and heal injuries. By the way, I also want to take a look at the flying magic weapons and talismans. You guys Is there any in the store?"
Ji Liao's eyes flashed, his heart moved, the corners of his mouth raised, and he said quickly, "Yes, yes, but the things you need for your cultivation, senior, are not available on this floor. You still have to go upstairs." Take a look."
"Well, take me to see it." The woman nodded.
"Please!" Ji Liao made a gesture of invitation and led the woman to the second floor.
Walking on the stairs, Ji Liao asked with a smile as he walked, "Dare you ask me your surname, senior?"
"Sun!" the woman replied simply.
"Senior Sun, this junior is polite here, but I don't know that senior is an elder of the nearby Fire Bird Sect?" Ji Liao cupped his hands towards the woman surnamed Sun and continued to ask.
The woman surnamed Sun glanced at Ji Liao lightly.
"Oh, senior, don't get me wrong, I'm just an immortal master who admires the Fire Bird Sect. I just ask you out of curiosity." Ji Liao saw the meaning of the woman's expression and said with a smile.
"Yeah!" When the woman surnamed Sun heard this, she hummed without saying anything, neither admitting nor denying.
Not long after, the two arrived at the second-floor attic. When they reached the stairs, Ji Liao shouted into the attic, "Brother Lu Yan, a senior is here, come and greet him."
"Hey, okay!" At this time, Lu Yan's voice came from the attic, and after a while, Lu Yan trotted out.
Arriving in front of the two of them, Lu Yan chuckled, "Junior has met senior!"
The woman named Sun nodded lightly.
"Please, senior, please tell me inside."
The woman surnamed Sun didn't say much and walked in first.
Ji Liao's eyes moved and he winked at Lu Yan.
Lu Yan blinked knowingly, and then followed the woman surnamed Sun.
