Chapter 82 Snake King Stall

Lu Shao was unaware that he was being watched by several experts, and even less aware that Wu Cheng's unintentional actions had brought him another big trouble.

Meanwhile, Wu Cheng followed Guo Sidi and continued walking until they came to a relatively large stall, where they saw many people standing around it.

Humans are naturally drawn to excitement, and Wu Cheng was no exception. He squeezed into the crowd, only to find that the stall was filled with live animals.

The snakes were standing tall and flicking their tongues; their heads were triangular, so they must all be venomous.

They were all curled up on a piece of cloth under the stall. There was no fence around the stall, but the snakes showed no intention of swimming away.

"Is this the Snake King Stall?"

"That's right. I've heard that there's a snake king stall in the medicine market that sells very rare snakes."

"Did you see that snake? The one with a yellowish-brown head and green body, that's a little green dragon, a unique species from Jiuyuan Kingdom, even more precious than a panda."

"That's nothing. Did you see that snake with white spots on its body? That's a flying snake, a snake that can fly. Not only can it fly, but it's also extremely venomous. If it touches any grass or tree, it will kill them all."

"And that black, shiny snake with no scales, I think I've seen it in a nature magazine. It should be the Australian Black-snake, a specialty of Australia. It's the most venomous snake in the world, deadly in three seconds, and a single drop of its venom can kill dozens of elephants."

The people gathered around the stall were all well-informed, but even they felt that the snakes at the snake king's stall were incredibly powerful, numerous, and of many different kinds, all of which were extremely difficult to catch.

Behind the snake king's stall sat two people, an old man and a young man. The older man appeared to be in his sixties, with dark skin and a thin build. His most distinctive feature was that he was missing a section of his left little finger. It was said that the snake king had deliberately let a highly venomous snake bite him to test its venom. After being bitten, the snake king was unconscious for two days and two nights, nearly losing his life. He survived, but lost his finger, so those who knew him called him the Nine-Fingered Snake King.

The one less was a girl, also with dark skin, but a very pretty face and a good figure. Her big eyes blinked as she looked at everyone.

She felt quite proud when she heard others praising her snake king stall.

At this moment, someone in the crowd asked, "May I ask, Nine-Fingered Snake King, how much is this little green dragon for you?"

"I need to ask you what you're going to do with it first," said the Nine-Fingered Snake King. "The snakes here only save lives, they don't harm people."

The Nine-Fingered Snake King has his own rules. His principle is that he can only save lives and not harm people. If someone uses the Snake King to harm others and the Snake King finds out, then they will suffer endless snake calamities.

Someone didn't believe in this superstition and bought a shoe snake from the Snake King, which then harmed others. As a result, the Snake King found out about it, and this person who harmed others was now encountering all kinds of snakes every day. Even after he moved abroad and lived in the most secure place in a big city, he was still bitten to death by a snake in the end.

Everyone knew this rule, so he quickly said, "Snake King, you're joking. How could I dare to buy your snake to harm people? I intend to buy it to cure an illness. My daughter has contracted a strange disease, and I've heard that only a dragon's molt can cure her."

"Dragon molt? You don't actually think that the little green dragon's snake molt can be used as a real dragon molt to cure diseases, do you?" the Nine-Fingered Snake King said. "It's useless, don't waste your money."

"But I can't just stand by and watch my daughter get sick like this. They say that when you're desperate, you'll try anything. Even if there's only the slightest glimmer of hope, I want to save my daughter."

The Nine-Fingered Snake King looked at the man and said, "If you really want a snake molt, I can sell it to you. But as I said, a snake molt is just a snake molt. To become a dragon molt, you have to go through two more upgrades, from snake to dragon and from dragon to dragon."

When the man heard what the Nine-Fingered Snake King said, he knew that the snake's molt could not cure his daughter's illness.

He was a little disappointed and turned to look at the crowd: "Does anyone have any news or clues about the dragon's molt? I can pay 100 million for accurate information and 200 million for clues. If you can provide information about the dragon's molt, I am willing to pay 2 billion."

Two billion.

There was an uproar; anyone who could afford to pay so much money must be no ordinary family.

"Don't doubt me, everyone. I am from the Qian family of Lin'an. You all know how wealthy the Qian family is. They are one of the ten great families of Jiuyuan Kingdom and have the ability to pay this fee."

Upon hearing that it was the Qian family of Lin'an, everyone realized that the Qian family was an old and prestigious family. Before the fall of the Nine Yuan Star, they were already extremely wealthy. The Qian family had even been emperors, the emperors of Linzhou and the Dragon Kings of the East Sea in the history of the Nine Yuan Kingdom.

When the Hundred Family Surnames were ranked, the first was Zhao, the surname of the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and the second was Qian, the surname of the Dragon King of the East Sea. Even a single hair of his was thicker than the thigh of an average person.

It's ironic, really. The richest family in Linzhou, the Qian family, who are known as the Dragon King of the East Sea, still have to search everywhere for dragon molts to cure their illness.

“Kid, your luck has come, meow,” Jin Wanliang said. “Take this mission and you’ll have 200,000 gold coins in the blink of an eye, meow.”

"Don't be ridiculous, Master Meow. The Qian family is the number one family in Linzhou, a powerful clan. If we can't produce a dragon's molt, I'll be the one getting skinned alive."

“Idiot, meow,” Jin Wanliang said, “What’s so hard about finding a dragon’s molt? It’s just a snake’s molt.”

"Are dragon molts and snake molts the same thing?"

"Is your brain full of rice paste, meow? Think about it, don't you have an upgrade function? From snake molting to dragon molting, it's just a matter of strengthening twice, meow."

That's right, Wu Cheng realized that he really couldn't think outside the box. It was understandable that others couldn't find dragon molts, but he had the Lucky Cat System, which could not only decompose but also upgrade. He could even create dragon molts himself.

"However, you should choose a higher-grade snake molt. How about this, you can buy the little green dragon's snake molt from the Nine-Fingered Snake King's stall. It shouldn't cost much."

Wu Cheng quickly bought the snake molt from the Nine-Fingered Snake King, put it in the cat house, and then started upgrading using the upgrade tool in the store.

I thought upgrading from snake molting to dragon molting would be extremely expensive, but the opposite was true. I upgraded two levels in a row, and it only cost me eleven gold coins. 110,000 to gamble on 2 billion, this is truly a gamble, and you might just turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!

Moreover, Wu Cheng saw a bright path to making money from this upgrade. Since snake molts can be upgraded to dragon molts, what about other things? As long as you have money and spend money, what can't be upgraded?

You can easily upgrade all kinds of treasures, improve their quality, and then sell them. Wouldn't that make you a fortune?
