I have the face of a great demon.

Tie Zhu's voice was incredibly loud, and his shouts carried far.

Although Hua Laodao, who was meditating in the woods, couldn't see their stalls, he could hear their shouts clearly.

He slightly opened his eyes, and a smile curved his lips.

"These two brats have even learned how to hawk their wares. How did they even come up with such bizarre hawking cries?"

"Never mind, it's normal for young people to have their fun, let them be."

After saying that, he closed his eyes again and entered a meditative state.

He didn't see the bustling scene at that stall, otherwise his eyes would have popped out of their sockets.

This is no joke; even famous fortune tellers' shops aren't this lively.

People surrounded the stall, three layers deep, all eager to see what this elixir, costing only two spirit crystals, was all about.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an extremely ordinary elixir.

Because it's so common, it's truly a must-have for every home.

What's even more interesting is that the medicinal herbs here aren't grouped together by variety, but rather are combinations of two varieties.

If it's just a single type of elixir, people can easily estimate the price.

But such a combination is hard to predict.

Some combinations contain inexpensive elixirs, while others are slightly more expensive. How can one possibly estimate this at a glance?

At first glance, everyone thought that two spirit crystals per bundle seemed like a pretty good deal.

Since they were already there, and these were all everyday medicinal herbs, and two spirit crystals weren't expensive, they simply took out their spirit crystals and bought them.

In an instant, spirit crystals rained down into the small jars on the stall, making Tie Zhu grin from ear to ear.

There were only 13 bundles of elixirs on the stall, and they were gone in an instant as people rushed to grab them.

By the time Qian Duo arrived at the stall, the people had already snapped up all the elixirs and dispersed, leaving only an empty stall and small jars filled with spirit crystals.

Tie Zhu held the jar full of spirit crystals and carefully counted them. There were 26 spirit crystals, one more than they had originally planned.

This put him in a great mood.

Seeing that the chubby guy had so much money, he said happily:

"Uncle, you're too late. All our medicinal herbs are sold out. We made much more money than the 10 spirit crystals you offered."

"Hmph, who's your uncle? Call me Master Qian."

Qian Duo felt a little embarrassed after being called out by Tie Zhu.

He initially intended to turn around and leave, but then he thought that the two young men's sales techniques were indeed extraordinary, so he put on a kind and friendly face again.

"Hehe, I really misjudged you. I didn't expect you guys to be such sales geniuses. How did you come up with this idea of ​​hawking your wares?"

"I don't know that." Tie Zhu pointed at Liu Xingchen. "It was Xingchen who came up with it."

Qian Duoduo had already guessed that it was this ugly boy with plasters on his face who came up with the idea. After confirming it, he smiled and said to them:

"How about it? Want to do business with me? I guarantee you two will make a fortune."

To his surprise, Liu Xingchen didn't even glance at him, and said indifferently, "No need, we have no interest in doing business."

"Yes, we still need to follow our master to cultivate ourselves, we won't do business."

As they talked, the two gathered up the cloth they had spread on the ground, turned around, and left to browse the stalls.

Qian Duoduo wasn't worried when the two ignored him.

He followed slowly behind the two, waiting for them to think of something but not have enough spirit crystals, then he would come out and persuade them, and see if these two novice martial artists would give in.

With spirit crystals in hand, Liu Xingchen and the other person looked at the roadside stalls differently.

Before, you could only look but not buy, but now...

I looked at it for a while, but still couldn't buy it.

There are too few spirit crystals.

The good items at each stall are mostly priced at 30 spirit crystals or more, with the more expensive ones selling for one or two hundred.

Those below 30 spirit crystals only have some spiritual herbs, which is not what they want.

Without the corresponding alchemy recipes, these elixirs are useless to them even if they buy them.

As they walked and looked around, their goal was clear: to find small magical treasures worth less than 30 spirit crystals, since their pockets weren't very full.

They came to a small stall, and the items on it caught their attention.

This stall only has one thing: a small, exquisite money bag.

"Brother Xingchen, why are they selling money bags here? You need to buy these at the trading place?"

The stall owner was a kind-looking old man who chuckled when he heard Tie Zhu's words.

"You two young friends haven't been practicing for very long, have you? This isn't a money pouch, it's a storage pouch."

Storage bag! Liu Xingchen's eyes lit up; this was exactly what he needed.

He carried the divine sword and the bundle containing his black robe all day long, and had to be careful at all times, fearing that these two things would be exposed, which was indeed inconvenient.

He hurriedly asked the stall owner, "How many spirit crystals does this storage bag cost?"

Five storage bags were displayed on the stall, two large and three small.

The stall owner pointed and said, "Small ones are 30 spirit crystals, large ones are 50 spirit crystals."

When Liu Xingchen saw the price, he felt there was a chance.

If you haggle with the stall owner, you might be able to buy it for 26 spirit crystals.

Tie Zhu, however, didn't know what a storage bag was, and said unhappily:

"You're really ripping me off! A tiny bag that can barely hold a few copper coins is being sold for 30 spirit crystals. I could have one made at a silk shop for less than 30 coins."

The stall owner was left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Young friend, this is no ordinary storage bag. Fine, I'll show you."

As he spoke, the stall owner pointed to one of the storage bags, made a hand seal, and the small bag slowly grew larger, transforming from a palm-sized bag into a large bundle in a few breaths.

Tie Zhu found it amusing and excitedly exclaimed:

"Wow, that's amazing! It can actually grow bigger! Isn't it just like Master's gourd?"

"I get it! Make the storage bag bigger, fill it with a bunch of things, and then make it smaller again, so you can hang it on your waist and go around." Tie Zhu suddenly realized.

The old man nodded: "Yes, this young man is teachable."

"Brother Xingchen, buy one. You need this storage bag the most. You're different from me. I can carry any size bag without any problem. If you buy one, you can save a lot of effort."

To his surprise, his words made the stall owner shake his head and laugh.

"Young friend, this storage bag doesn't save you any effort. It only utilizes the magical artifact's ability to expand and shrink to make it easier for everyone to carry things. The contents inside are still just as heavy, so it doesn't save you any effort."

"Ah, if it doesn't save effort, then it's much worse," Tie Zhu complained.

Liu Xingchen was also a little disappointed. It seemed that the storage magic treasures in this world were not as powerful as he had imagined.

But the old man continued:

"There are also storage treasures that save effort. There is a kind of storage ring that uses spatial magic. When you put items into it, it is placed in another space, and when you carry it with you, it has no weight at all."

"Oh, this one looks good, let's take this one."

The stall owner rolled his eyes at Tie Zhu's words.

"You want it, but I don't have it yet."

"Storage rings are extremely valuable. The smallest one costs at least 3000 spirit crystals, and the larger ones cost more than 10,000 spirit crystals."

"Don't even mention the two of you, every single one of the independent cultivators here can't afford it."

After listening to the stall owner, Liu Xingchen finally gained a basic understanding of the storage magic items in this world.

Forget about the storage ring; let's focus on getting this little storage bag first.
