Chapter 125 Who is it (Four Thousand)

Hearing "guess", Lin Xiao's blood immediately surged. While he was stunned, he didn't expect that Lou Xuan's words didn't stop at all.

"Why are you still here in a daze? Follow me quickly! After a month, you have just received a few spiritual stones as a monthly gift. You have finally saved some money. You don't want to think about how to improve your cultivation and strengthen your strength. Come again. What's the use of practicing heresy and strange techniques?"

Not only was Lou Xuan talking, he also kept trying to pull Lin Xiao up from the ground. After the two of them pulled, Lin Xiao had a thought in his mind and immediately picked up the topic.

"What are you talking about? Junior brother, I really have no interest in seeking the truth. How can there be any reason in this world that a horse can't eat grass and be forced to have its head pressed? Senior brother, senior brother, please tolerate me once!"

Lou Xuan tried to pull several times, but he couldn't pull up. Finally, he let go of his palms, stamped his feet, and shook his head.

"Allow you once? As a senior brother, I have tolerated you more than once? If things go on like this, your cultivation will gradually fall behind other disciples. How can there be a place for you in this mountain sect!"

As he spoke, he looked sad and sighed.

Lin Xiao squatted on the ground, looked back at Lou Xuan, and spoke sincerely. "Senior brother, to be honest, my days on the mountain are almost like years. If there ever comes a time, I will take the initiative to resign and go down the mountain. But this miscellaneous student has never been able to do it again." I can’t throw it away.”

He stopped talking and said in a serious tone: "Who said that practicing cultivation can only be done step by step to transform into a mortal? If there is really a great way in this world, there should be a glimmer of life left to accommodate a person like me who is outside the dream."< /p>

"You..."

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, Lou Xuan let out a long sigh and didn't know what to say. The stall owner's eyes trembled, as if he was slightly in a trance.

"No matter what, no matter what! If you insist on doing this, I can't stop you, but I definitely can't use these hundred low-grade spiritual stones to directly drain my family's wealth!"

Lou Xuan said, turning to look at the stall owner and clasping his fists.

"Fellow Taoist Haihan, my brother and I had a dispute here, but it made our fellow Taoist laugh. I would like to take the liberty to ask, can I give in to the price of these hundred low-grade spiritual stones?"

The stall owner came back to his senses after hearing this and quickly returned the salute. "You are so polite, fellow Taoist. If all of us who are senior fellow apprentices can be like you, that would be a blessing to our fellow apprentices."

Lin Xiao couldn't help but look at Lou Xuan.

I heard the stall owner continue: "You two have a close friendship. As a seller, I can't hold on to the price no matter what. How about this, fellow Taoist, tell me a price and let me take a look?"

Lou Xuan thought about it for a while and said, "I just want to say something casually. Don't be angry, fellow Taoist. I wonder if sixty low-grade spiritual stones can make it happen?"

Hearing this figure, Lin Xiao couldn't help but secretly gasped, thinking that Lou Xuan's ruthless bargaining method was really worthy of his reputation as the head of the crime department, but at this price, it was impossible for the other party to agree.

Sure enough, the stall owner looked troubled and shook his head and said: "It's really too low. This price can't even cover the cost of renting a furnace for me to make alchemy. After all, when this furnace was opened, there was no elixir to be refined."

It’s impossible to sell this item alone at such a low price.”

At this time, Lin Xiao asked: "How about this? Fellow Taoist, why don't you give us a real price and save us the trouble of wasting our breath?"

The stall owner nodded his head. "Okay, since I have met my Taoist friend and we are quite destined, I will tell you a minimum price, eighty yuan of low-grade spiritual stones. If it works, I will make a deal. If it doesn't, I ask your Taoist friend to forgive me."

Lou Xuan, who was standing behind Lin Xiao, frowned slightly. "Junior brother, this price is really going to cost you, so why bother?"

Lin Xiao also sighed after hearing this, then raised his head and asked: "By the way, my friend, do you still have the recipe for refining this thing?"

"Prescription?" The stall owner was a little embarrassed and explained: "It's not that I deliberately concealed it, but it's just that there is no such prescription. It's just because there were other people's refining residue in the alchemy furnace that day that I didn't have time to clean up.

I didn’t know there was such a thing when I was using it, so I refined it by chance.”

"If fellow Taoists are willing to study further, I can sell my deduction progress together with the paint to fellow Taoists. What do you think?"

Lin Xiao pondered for a moment and then said: "If there is no complete recipe and only a rough range of materials, the price may not be too high. After all, whether it can be successful in the future is a matter of choice..."

"That's natural." The stall owner nodded and said, "If Taoist friends want it, I'll price the paint and the range of materials for 140 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones and sell them to fellow Taoists together."

Lou Xuan heard this and said quickly: "Junior brother!"

Lin Xiao was slightly lost in thought and did not reply. He seemed to be making some calculations in his mind, and finally said: "The price is really high... I can pay up to one hundred and twenty yuan. If it works, I will pay the bill immediately."

"One hundred and two?..." The stall owner frowned and repeated the number repeatedly, but did not answer immediately.

Lou Xuan couldn't help but persuade Lin Xiao: "Junior brother, at this price, there is so much that can be done. What are you doing, alas..."

Before Lin Xiao could answer, the stall owner nodded. "It's really not easy, fellow Taoist, so just one hundred and twenty yuan."

Lin Xiao was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your help!"

The stall owner also smiled. "You're welcome."

Who would have thought that as soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, he turned to look at Lou Xuan and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Well, master, senior brother, I'm really short of money, why don't you lend me thirty low-grade spiritual stones first?"

/p>

Lou Xuan was startled when he heard this, his eyes had completely narrowed into a thin slit, and he subconsciously blurted out, "You..."

As soon as he said two words, before the word "si" popped out, he realized something was wrong. He quickly stopped and changed his words: "Junior brother——!"

Lin Xiao pretended to be miserable on his face, but he was laughing secretly in his heart - I helped you bargain for a while, but you insist on taking advantage of me. If you call me "senior brother", how can I still be polite to you?

Seeing Lou Xuan being held on the spot, it was impossible not to show his good image of loving his junior brother, so he immediately ordered thirty pieces of low-grade spiritual stones and handed them over to the stall owner.

Seeing that the "robbery" was successful, Lin Xiao was unambiguous and immediately paid off the remaining ninety spirit stones.

Of course, it is not that Lin Xiao doesn't have a middle-grade spiritual stone in his hands, but if he is practicing Qi refining, he would take out a middle-grade spiritual stone and let people give him change. This would be a bit too showy, and it would be revealed at a glance.

.

After receiving the bottle of paint and the paper with the materials written on it, the two of them didn't stay much longer. They clasped their fists and turned around to leave the stall.

However, as they walked, the sound transmission between the two became secret, and they had already started chatting.

"Okay, I called you Junior Brother, and you were cut off thirty pieces of low-grade spiritual stones. It seems that I should help you negotiate the price, right?" Lou Xuan snorted coldly, "This is not an honest thing to do."<

/p>

Lin Xiao laughed. "Forget it, I can do this without your help! Besides, it's just thirty low-grade spiritual stones. I'll give it to you in a moment. What's it worth?"

"No, don't give it to me." Lou Xuan answered quickly.

Lin Xiao was a little surprised at this time, and turned to look at him. "Hey, I asked you to buy a bowl of plain noodles with all your hands. This time, you lost so many spiritual stones, but you didn't want it? Why do I feel a little nervous in the back?

Is it cold?..."

Lou Xuan didn't look at him. "Just because I found that it doesn't seem like a bad thing to let you owe more." He said with a chuckle, "If a bowl of plain noodles can make you wake up in the middle of the night, help me find out.

These thirty spiritual stones, I think you can help me block a life..."

"Ahem..." After hearing this, Lin Xiao choked and couldn't help but muttered. "The boss is really good at calculating!"

"Ha, you and I are each other!" Lou Xuan chuckled.

"Aren't you curious, what is the use of the items I bought?" Lin Xiao joked.

"I'm not curious." Lou Xuan answered simply, "If I know what my responsibilities are, I have to write them into your file. Maybe, it's better not to know..."

Lin Xiao's eyes flickered as he listened and said softly, "Thank you."

"No need."

The two chatted for a few more words, and as the other monks walked forward slowly, Lin Xiao remembered the purpose of Lou Xuan's visit and couldn't help but ask.

"By the way, everything went well for you there?"

When mentioning this matter, Lou Xuan looked serious and shook his head slightly.

"There is a way, but there is no news at all."

"Oh? How do you say this?" Lin Xiao asked.

Lou Xuan replied: "It's like a market. It's already busy with traffic and people are mixed. It's the bustling time, but you find that there are people everywhere and there is no sound. Do you think it's strange?"

"It's extremely weird." Lin Xiao said directly.

"That's right." Lou Xuan said and then said, "Do you still want to go shopping?"

"No, let's go. We've gained a lot tonight, that's almost it." Lin Xiao replied.

Lou Xuan didn't say anything more, and the two of them got out of the crowd, picked up the nearest exit, and walked out of the ghost market.

Slowly ascending along the stone steps, when you return to the foot of Zhushan Mountain, you find that the sky in the east has already revealed the slightest trace of fish belly white.

"This night was really exciting..." Walking in the bamboo forest, Lin Xiao stretched his waist, turned around and asked: "What about you? Is it time to report the trip to the hall master?"

"Yeah, almost." Lou Xuan nodded.

"Okay, be careful. If you need anything to find me, just come to the outer gate." Lin Xiao paused and added, "By the way, forget it during the day, I should wander outside..."

Lou Xuan smiled. "You might as well say you are avoiding trouble."

"Noisy!" Lin Xiao replied. Just as he was about to fly away, he was stopped by Lou Xuan.

"Hey, wait."

Lin Xiao turned around and said jokingly: "What's the matter? Don't tell me that you also want to be my guard during the day?"

"Dream!" Lou Xuan turned his hand, revealing a long and narrow wooden box, and threw it over.

Lin Xiao was stunned and reached out to catch it. "What is this?"

"The formation pen was made by Zhushan Xiansou. I just happened to see him setting up a stall in the ghost market, so I bought one." Lou Xuan said casually, as if he didn't care, "I heard from Master Ni that you should be a good person."

Together with the talisman array, I think it should be useful."

Lin Xiao had a smile on his face. "I really want to say thank you to you when I heard your first sentence, but when I heard your last sentence, I couldn't help but want to kill people and silence them. It's not strange for you to say..."

Lou Xuan gave him a sideways glance with the word "one word". "How about you give it a try?"

Lin Xiao quickly said haha. "Forget it! But I really didn't expect that the boss's face would be so thin. Isn't he just helping you step in? As for taking out the spiritual stones and giving away the formation pen, this
