I became a passerby in the book, and I became a god

Exchange Pavilion.

Ever since the establishment of Qianyu Pavilion in Linye City, the Yiwu Pavilion has become increasingly sluggish.

At this time, the clerk in the barter shop was lying on the table bored.

After asking around, Yu Qiuyi finally arrived at the barter pavilion. She untied the straps of her rattan backpack.

With a "bang", the boy who was originally lying on the table jumped up as if reflexively.

He looked at the visitor and frowned slightly when he saw Yu Qiuyi's attire, but he did not say anything bad. Instead, he asked in a very good manner, "Sir, do you want to trade?"

Yu Qiuyi nodded: "Yes, could you please help me see how much this bag of things is worth?"

The waiter came forward and said, "Please wait a moment, sir. I'll check it out." Then he began to look through the things in Yu Qiuyi's wicker backpack.

The guy said as he flipped through the things: "They are all low-grade first-level animal skins, teeth, and horns."

He pondered for a moment and then said, "Well, an intact hide with hair costs six low-grade spirit stones, a hide with hair and hairless with holes costs five low-grade spirit stones, and a hide with holes and hairless costs four low-grade spirit stones. Teeth, horns, and other odds and ends, except for fish scales, cost three low-grade spirit stones each. These fish scales can only be sold for eight low-grade spirit stones at most. Does the customer have any objection to this?"

Yu Qiuyi responded calmly, "Okay, let's do this." In his heart, "What? A piece of intact furry animal skin can be sold for six low-grade spirit stones? The entrance fee is five low-grade spirit stones, and I gave three intact furry animal skins. I'm losing a lot. The guard at the city gate is too pretentious. It hurts!"

Forget it, it’s my fault for not knowing the prices here.

Seeing that Yu Qiuyi agreed, the waiter began to count and settle the spirit stones.

There were six intact furry animal skins, eleven chipped furry and hairless animal skins, and seventeen teeth and horns in the wicker backpack.

Including the fish scales, it is exactly 150 low-grade spirit stones.

After the calculation, the waiter took out 150 low-grade spirit stones from the storage bag and gave them to Yu Qiuyi.

Yu Qiuyi looked at these spirit stones and fell into trouble.

The low-grade spirit stones here were the same size as the glass beads that modern children play with. Although one hundred and fifty of them were not many, it was still inconvenient to hold them like this.

If someone with a higher level of cultivation than me were to take a fancy to my few spirit stones, wouldn't all my four months of work have been in vain?

Although the Qiaomu hairpin has space for storing things, I am only at the third level of Qi Refining. How can I dare to put the spirit stones directly into it?

She asked the waiter hesitantly, "Do you have storage bags for sale?"

The waiter smiled and said, "Yes, sir. We have storage bags of all grades here. Which one do you want?"

Yu Qiuyi rubbed his hands awkwardly: "Just the cheapest one will do."

Hearing this, the waiter did not show any dissatisfaction: "Okay, please wait a moment, sir." After saying that, he went to get the storage bag.

The storage devices in this world are, from low to high, storage bags, Qiankun bags, space rings, and Sumeru rings.

They are divided into low, medium and high levels.

Storage bags can only store inanimate objects. Low-level storage bags are only one square meter, medium-level storage bags are more than ten cubic meters, and high-level storage bags are more than fifty cubic meters but less than one hundred and fifty cubic meters.

The Qiankun bag is larger than 150 cubic meters and can hold living things, but there are restrictions and time limits.

The space ring is over one thousand cubic meters and can store living things (with a time limit) and grow spiritual plants.

The Sumeru Ring is more than 10,000 cubic meters and is a world of its own with its own rules.

After a while, the waiter took out a storage bag and said, "Sir, I have given you a 10% discount. You only need 45 low-grade spirit stones, and this storage bag will be yours."

Yu Qiuyi: “…” One third of the results of four months were gone in an instant.

In the end, Yu Qiuyi bought the storage bag. Before leaving, he asked the waiter, "Fellow Daoist, do you know where Bai Xiao Pavilion is and how to get there?"

The waiter looked curious and asked, "What do you want from Bai Xiao Pavilion? It's a bit far from here, so it will probably take a day to walk there."

Yu Qiuyi looked worried: "I just want to know how to get to the mortal world."

Upon hearing this, the waiter was surprised: "You want to go to the mortal world? There is no spiritual energy in the mortal world, and you can't practice. Why would you go there!"

Seeing Yu Qiuyi didn't answer.

The waiter continued, "This is not a secret. I just happened to know that guests don't need to go to Baixiao Pavilion specifically. The ascending platform to the Mortal World is at the South Pole Sea in Yu City. Once there, you only need to jump down from the ascending platform to reach the Mortal World. However, it takes three months to take a flying boat from Linye City to Yu City, and the cost is about two hundred medium-grade spirit stones. If you take a teleportation array, you will also need to travel through several cities, and the cost is about three hundred medium-grade spirit stones."

Yu Qiuyi, who only had 105 low-grade spirit stones on his body, "..."

After a long pause, Yu Qiuyi bowed to the waiter and said, "Thank you for letting me know."

Yu Qiuyi was about to leave when he thought of something and turned around: "Daoyou, I have another question for you. In which direction is the mass grave of Linye City?"

The waiter gave her a strange look and didn't ask any more questions: "Go out of the city gate and keep going northwest until you see the mass grave."

Yu Qiuyi bowed again to thank the waiter and left the barter pavilion.

Yu Qiuyi was confused after leaving the Exchange Pavilion. It took him four months to exchange for 150 low-grade spirit stones. Now he only had 105 left. To go to the Mortal Realm, he needed at least 200 medium-grade spirit stones. It was impossible to walk there. It would take three months to fly by boat. It would take a long time to get there. Not to mention what dangers he would encounter on the way.

One hundred low-grade spirit stones equal one medium-grade spirit stone, one hundred medium-grade spirit stones equal one high-grade spirit stone, and one hundred high-grade spirit stones equal one top-grade spirit stone.

Two hundred middle-grade spirit stones! She spent four months and didn’t even earn two. How many four months would she have to work to earn enough? It’s a headache.

Yu Qiuyi looked down and saw the clothes he had worn for more than four months. He said with disgust, "Forget it, let's go buy some clothes first."

Yu Qiuyi, who had changed into men's clothes, walked out of the clothing store with a look of despair on his face.

Ask her why she wears men's clothes? Don't ask, the answer is she is poor.

The worst women's clothing costs fifteen low-grade spirit stones, and men's clothing costs ten low-grade spirit stones. What was she thinking? Poor people only deserve to wear the cheapest clothes, and she had to buy a spare set. It was bitter, and she spent another twenty spirit stones.

On the way to find a clothing store, Yu Qiuyi also found out that the cheapest inn also costs ten low-grade spirit stones a night. Fortunately, there are food stalls run by mortals in the city.

She found out through inquiries and went to Hezhong Bank, intending to exchange some silver. However, since this was a city in the world of immortal cultivation, and a big one at that, Yu Qiuyi could only exchange two low-grade spirit stones for two hundred taels of silver.

It feels uncomfortable. If I were in the mortal world, I should be able to live a comfortable life relying on the knowledge from my previous life.

But this is a world of immortal cultivation where strength is respected. I am a complete newbie here. Firstly, I don’t know how to make pills or draw talismans. Secondly, how long will it take me to work for others?

If you use your brain to work, you may not be able to leave. It's so frustrating.
