Among the five paranoid male protagonists, who do you want me to choose?
Chapter 12 Do you like collecting junk so much?
According to the information I just heard from the mercenary association, some independent cultivators love to go to the East Market to buy some cultivation resources. Not only are the prices reasonable, but there are also some new things.
According to the routine, the protagonist will definitely be able to buy good things at this time.
Yu Zhao didn't hesitate at all. "Buy whatever you like. I'll pay for it."
It was a rare occasion for him to be generous. Even though he knew she was going to make a note in the notebook, Shen Yuzhuo nodded gently. After all, it was his own money that he was spending, and it was just an advance payment.
He stopped at a stall after walking a few steps and pointed to a walnut-shaped object in the corner. "Boss, how much is this?"
Yu Zhao looked up and saw that the walnut was about half the size of his palm, shiny and slightly dark in color. He didn't see anything unusual about it, but Shen Yuzhuo must have his reasons for wanting it.
"Twenty spirit stones."
Seeing the two men looking around, it was obvious that they had just arrived, and the man who asked the price was also uncultured, so he wanted to take advantage of them.
It was too expensive. Although Shen Yuzhuo liked the ghost walnut, he didn't have to buy it. He just got up and left. Yu Zhao, who wanted to pay, also moved his hand away.
Seeing the man was about to leave, the boss immediately became anxious and hurriedly walked out of the stall with the ghost walnuts, trying hard to sell them, "Don't leave, fellow Taoist, we can negotiate the price."
"How about this, you name a price and we'll talk it over."
Shen Yuzhuo stopped and looked straight at the boss with his pair of dark eyes. There seemed to be a small vortex in the depths of his pupils. The man's old eyes hesitated for a moment, and then quickly disappeared.
Shen Yuzhuo asked, "Two spirit stones, can you sell them?"
The ghost walnuts sold at other stalls in the market are also priced at the same price, but this one is a little special, as it has a hint of ghostly aura on it. For him now, it can be of use.
The boss, who was looking at him, felt as if something flashed through his mind and nodded woodenly, "Sell it, of course you can sell it, the other stalls all have the same price."
Shen Yuzhuo smiled gently, took the ghost walnut from his hand, then turned his head and raised his chin to Yu Zhao beside him to indicate payment.
Yu Zhao, who witnessed the whole process, said: "..."
Twenty spirit stones were reduced to two spirit stones in seconds. This bargaining was too incredible, but she always believed in the protagonist's halo, and anything unreasonable could be turned into reasonable.
This is not something a carbon-based creature like her should think about.
Shen Yuzhuo bought a lot of things along the way, which made Yu Zhao feel itchy. Maybe she could also try buying something and try her luck.
Finding a stall, Yu Zhao stared at the pottery jar in the corner and asked, "Two spirit stones, will you sell it?"
The sleepy middle-aged man smiled and immediately packed up the pottery jar and handed it to her. He was so quick and decisive, as if he was afraid that she would regret it.
I bought more than a dozen items, picking out the tattered and worn ones, and the ones from the old man with a white beard, who looked like a hermit. As long as there was one good thing, it would not be a loss.
The things she chose were all simple and unpretentious, some of which could be said to be a pile of waste garbage, pure second-hand goods.
Looking at the stall owner's worthless smile and Yu Zhao who was keen on collecting waste, Shen Yuzhuo, who had a good eye, expressed his incomprehension. It would be fine if he didn't buy those good things with clearly marked prices, but why buy a bunch of junk?
I don't understand her train of thought.
Soon he got a clue. When they reached the alley, Yu Zhao handed the things in his arms to Shen Yuzhuo to see, with a hint of anticipation, "What do you think of what I bought?"
Shen Yuzhuo didn't understand why, but he was surprisingly honest. "Why do you like collecting junk so much?"
Yu Zhao didn't give up, "Take a closer look, isn't there anything good?"
These were carefully selected by her, and each one has some characteristics, such as the black alchemy furnace in her hand, which may be a peerless furnace after being wiped clean, and the wine gourd in her left hand, which has runes faintly engraved on it.
The kind that can be sold for a good price.
"No, none at all."
Shen Yuzhuo raised his eyebrows. One of them was a discarded alchemy furnace that had exploded. The other one had words carved on it with a dagger and was deliberately smeared with some soot from the bottom of the pot, making it look quite old.
This is a common tactic used in the market, based on curiosity, to deceive the one percent of rich fools.
There just happened to be one person traveling with him who had money but nowhere to spend it.
Gradually, Shen Yuzhuo looked at Yu Zhao with some pity. It must not be easy for this girl with a brain full of muscles to grow up to this age.
In the end, Yu Zhao put the waste into the storage bag, saying, "I like it."
Just when the two were planning to buy winter clothes, a group of people gathered together, surrounding them so tightly that no one could get in or out. The monk in the lead was scattering a handful of paper.
The yellowed papers were as dense as drizzle, scattering in the wind.
Yu Zhao suddenly opened his eyes, put two fingers together, picked up one of the floating ones in the air, raised his eyebrows and looked at it carefully.
The young man beside her looked at her quietly, hesitant to speak, and asked for some unknown reason.
"What does it say?"
Yu Zhao had never seen the words on it before. The characters in this world were very mysterious. The characters and language in the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons were different from those in the outside world. She even learned the language used by humans to communicate from her master.
But before she had the chance to learn the local language, her master passed away.
Unable to expose his illiteracy at the moment, Yu Zhao saw a posted notice through the gaps in the crowd. There was a blurry portrait on it. This kind of notice was usually a wanted poster or something like that, issuing an arrest warrant for someone.
The Cave of Ten Thousand Demons was also viewed from right to left, so she did as she was used to.
Although she didn't get a portrait, these should be together. The lack of a portrait probably means that the person in it has hidden his face. Yu Zhao held the reward order and swore, "This is a wanted order."
Seeing her holding the bounty order upside down and looking at it from right to left, Shen Yuzhuo remained silent.
Because... they always look from left to right.
He was very glad that he met someone as smart as Yu Zhao. If he had met someone else, he might have had to hide something in order to conceal his secrets.
The seventh prince is really obsessed with him.
The bounty above is for finding the two of them, but unlike the wanted order which only wants their life, regardless of life or death, this one can get a bounty of one million spirit stones for providing information.
They still want his body.
Shen Yuzhuo had no doubt that if Yu Zhao saw one million spirit stones, he might be blinded by the money and tie him up and sell him off.
The young man crossed his arms over his chest and said in a dull tone, "The reward is one hundred spirit stones."
Then Yu Zhao was a little tempted, but they still had to go shopping and head to Dragon King Valley. After thinking about it, he decided that he shouldn't bother with such a small profit.
She casually rolled the bounty warrant into a ball and threw it away. The ball of paper fell to the ground and rolled into the dark sewer.
Just a hundred spirit stones, but the young man did not ignore her hesitation. His heart was pounding and he almost capsized.
Fortunately, she was illiterate and was fooled by a little trickery.
The sky was gray and soon it started to drizzle.
Several people were strolling on the street holding oil-paper umbrellas. Raindrops fell on the cobblestones, splashing dust and mixing water and mud together.
The young man in the lead was wearing a white robe made of flowing cloud gauze with dark patterns embroidered on the hem. The robe was shining brightly, and the light gauze on his hat was dancing. He suddenly stopped.
The raindrops hit the roof, forming a water line along the bricks and tiles, washing away the mud and water on the ground.
"No clues yet?" Shen Yuxiu frowned under his bamboo hat. Things had not been going well these past few days and he was very irritable.
"Master, I'm afraid the Ninth Crown Prince should have left Tianyun City." The cultivator on the side looked terrified. He didn't know why, but the Seventh Crown Prince was so determined to deal with the Ninth Crown Prince that he chased him from Baiyujing to Tianyun City.
What kind of trouble can a useless person without sword bones and spiritual veins cause?
It's really unbelievable.
"No, you underestimated him." Shen Yuxiu straightened his lips. The direction shown on the compass was Tianyun City. He must not have left the city yet. It would be extremely difficult for an ordinary person to get the jade token to travel.
The more he couldn't kill him, the more he wanted to kill him.
What a worthless life.
In fact, in addition to hunting down his younger brother, he also wanted to go to Dragon King Valley, where there was the inheritance of the dragon clan. As long as he got it, the position of the Emperor would be within his reach. At that time, no matter how other crown princes competed, they would not be able to compete with him.
Shen Yuxiu glanced coldly at the young man beside him, "Huo Ye, take your men to search the nearby villages, and by the way, check if there are any mortal boys staying at the inns in Tianyun City recently."
"Sanqi, gather the other monks stationed outside the city and prepare to head to Dragon King Valley."
If I guess correctly...
His good brother also came for the inheritance of Dragon King Valley, but the ghost doctor who protected him was difficult to deal with.
Shen Yuxiu put the tip of his tongue against his cheek and looked at the rain with interest. He just happened to deal with the traitor Ghost Doctor and retrieve the sword bone.
He was actually very curious. How could that useless royal brother be hanging out with the person who had taken out his sword bone with his own hands? Wasn't it offensive?
Equivalent exchange, the Ghost Doctor will not do business at a loss.
Shen Yuxiu has been biting Shen Yuzhuo all the time, and he also has his own little calculations. In addition to the innate Xuanyuan blood and sword bones, he also has a pair of special eyes, which come from his foxy mother.
The Xuanyuan family has a natural advantage, and their descendants can not only inherit their father's talents, but also their mother's talents.
It just so happened that Shen Yuzhuo's mother was a lowly prostitute and a demon.
You know, some innate magical powers are naturally easy to be rejected. The evil eye of sinister evil and the sword bone of righteousness cannot exist at the same time, but if you have the Xuanyuan bloodline, then the problem can be easily solved.
So he not only wanted the sword bone, but also wanted to gouge out the evil eyes and use them for himself, so that a waste could escape the pursuit of many monks and escape all the way.
He must have such a powerful thing in his hands.
Those who are struggling to survive should not waste good cultivation resources.
In the wind and rain, the young man's face turned even paler. He turned his eyes slightly, hiding a cold chill in his eyes, and his eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if a storm was brewing.
He, Shen Yuxiu, should be the best among men, he deserves to rule the world, sit in that high position, and become the master of Baiyujing!
