The Psychic Girl
Chapter 22 Mysterious Seller
Some sellers who had been prepared put up high-flying colorful flags to attract buyers. Red, green, blue, yellow, a variety of colors gathered together, hoping to attract what they need or get a good price.
After walking around like this, Yan Tianming and Qing Liu did get a few items that could improve the spiritual energy of practitioners, and Yan Zini also exchanged the spiritual pills for some spiritual medicines that were beneficial to the cultivation of 100,000. But the hand bell Sai Ya mentioned did not appear.
"Xi'er, what kind of handbell do you want?"
Seeing that she looked lonely, Yan Zini also wanted to help her find it.
Xia Xi shook her head. How would she know what it looked like? It was just Sai Ya who said she could find it.
The further you go into the street market, the quieter the noise becomes and the more peaceful the atmosphere becomes.
Walking aimlessly until he came to a forked corner, Xia Xi saw a thin figure squatting on the ground with a white cloth in front of him. It looked like a stall, but compared to the hustle and bustle of the place he passed by before, this corner had little business and no one was interested.
Although the weather was cold, the man was only wearing a tattered piece of clothing and looked like a poor beggar.
Even without the black mask, his messy and dirty hair covered most of his face.
Sitting on the steps in front of the house, the man neither spoke nor had a sign, but Xia Xi unknowingly stood in front of the stall.
There was only a stone placed on the white cloth.
It is indeed a stone.
Moreover, it is a piece of stone that cannot be more ordinary and can be picked up anywhere.
Qing Liu was originally very impatient and wanted to urge Xia Xi to leave, but when he saw the other two people also went over involuntarily, he had no choice but to follow them.
Is this? Throwing a stone to test the water?
Xia Xi looked down at the stone in front of him, then glanced at the stall owner.
"Do you have what I want?"
The man still sat there without raising his head.
"There's nothing here that you want, only what I have."
His voice was as desolate and simple as an old dead tree, as if he had traveled through hundreds of reincarnations and seen everything in the world.
"So what do you have?"
The man pointed to the stone on the white cloth in front of him.
His entire body was wrapped tightly, with no other skin visible except for the lower half of his face where his mouth and nose were exposed.
Yan Tianming was startled when he saw the half finger that the man stretched out, but he quickly returned to normal.
Qing Liu stood aside and sneered, thinking that this must be another swindler who came to Guimian Street to cheat people and take advantage of the situation. Only a stupid woman would believe him.
Do you want to buy this stone?
Xia Xi was a little hesitant, not because she was unwilling, but because she had no money on her at the moment. The only valuable thing on her was probably the pair of star stone earrings that Zi Ni had just given her.
"How much do you want for this stone? I still have a few low-level spirit stones, but... I don't have them with me now."
The man shook his head.
"I don't buy or sell, I only exchange. Whatever value you have in your heart, you can exchange it for something of equal value."
Something of equal value?
Sai Ya asked her to find this bracelet. Although she knew nothing about this strange woman who seemed like a dream, she had helped her and she looked so pitiful.
"Xi'er, is that handbell important to you?"
Looking up at Xia Xi who was in trouble, Yan Zini pulled her sleeve.
Thinking of Saiya’s shaky state at the end, this bracelet must be very important to her, otherwise Saiya would not have helped me when she was so weak.
Xia Xi frowned and nodded heavily at Yan Zini in affirmation.
"Do you think this is okay?"
Smiling at her, Yan Zini took out a 60-centimeter-long, oval-lanceolate flower from the bamboo tube in his arms and handed it to the person.
The flower has seven petals, but they have seven different colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple. It looks very strange.
"Master you!"
Yan Zini stopped Qing Liu from saying anything further.
He could only jump up and down in excitement but was powerless to do anything.
"This is... Tianhong Ju?"
Recognizing this spiritual flower, the old man could not hide his excitement in his voice.
Tianhong Ju is a spiritual flower that has existed for ten thousand years. It is said to have the miraculous effect of healing injuries and prolonging life. However, this spiritual flower has been completely extinct for various reasons since a thousand years ago. Even Yan Zini got its seeds in a secret realm by chance and carefully cultivated this plant.
Yan Zini originally planned to use it to exchange for Bingpo Water.
That was the extremely rare material he planned to use to experiment with a new medicine to repair spiritual bones.
"This is a priceless treasure. Sir, are you really willing to exchange it with me?"
Yan Zini nodded slightly, his eyes calm without a trace of emotion.
For him, as long as flowers and plants are cultivated, there is hope of growing them, but Xia Xi's joy and happiness are even more rare.
"What this girl wants is far less urgent than what I need this spiritual flower. If I exchange it like this, I will be taking advantage...
That's all! Since you are willing to give it up, I will definitely find a way to repay you with something of corresponding value."
The man tremblingly took the bamboo tube containing the Tianhong Ju, carefully protected it in his arms, and looked up at Yan Zini and Yan Tianming behind Xia Xi.
"There is a very ancient legendary story in my hometown. In order to make the transaction fair, please listen to my story before I give you the stone!
Although you have an ear disease, my lord, I believe you can understand it by looking at the shape of my lips.
I will only tell you the story once, and you must listen carefully. I will also try my best to tell you in a way that you can understand. "
Yan Zini looked at the man's trembling lips and nodded to show that he understood what he meant.
……
“A long, long time ago.
At a time so early that it was unknown what era it was, a god who controlled time came.
That god is a very ancient god who existed before time came into being.
For the first time, it left the dome where the gods were born and began the "wandering" in the universe that all gods would experience.
At that time, everything was still desolate, there were no mountains, no water, no flowers, no wind and snow, and no humans.
The god in charge of time wanders in this world with nothing. He hugs himself while drifting and feels extremely lonely.
Therefore, it decided to stop in a desolate place and let time flow naturally without any deliberate control.
The sky began to appear above the barren land, and time brought rivers and mountains.
This goddess loves everything created by time like a mother, but it still feels that something is missing.
It thought about it for a long time.
It's life!
A life that will exist, grow, and die just like it!
However, unlike other gods, the first creature it created was not a human, but a fox - the Sky Fox.
Looking at the clever and smart sky fox that it had created, it thought that it would finally no longer be lonely.
