Chapter 14 Gao Yuyao

Seeing that Song Qingming seemed to have recognized him, Qin Zhen looked at the wooden sign in front of the stall and continued, "I see that your sign says you need elixirs. I happen to know a good friend who often sells elixirs, but he doesn't want anything else, just spirit stones. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Fellow Daoist Qin, I am here to help my clan collect elixirs to improve their cultivation. If someone can provide them for a long time, that would be great, and it would save my family from having to go to the market to buy them often."

It turned out that he was a cultivator from a nearby family. No wonder he was so young, but he could sell dozens of talismans at every gathering. It turned out that most of these talismans were made by the elders of his clan.

Elixirs, a scarce cultivation resource, are basically controlled by major cultivation families in Qinghe County. Most of them have a complete inheritance of elixir recipes based on the accumulation of several generations, and it is easier for them to cultivate alchemists than casual cultivators.

Even if there are a few talented people among the independent cultivators who have become alchemists through their own opportunities and have obtained some alchemy inheritance, if they want to obtain more recipes to improve their alchemy level, they can only choose to join them and become the worshippers of these immortal cultivation families, helping them to make pills for a lifetime.

Qinghefang, the only market in Qinghe County, was jointly established by the large and small immortal cultivation families in Qinghe County. The pills made by independent cultivators in Qinghefang cannot compete with these immortal cultivation families.

Of course, there are still some alchemists who are unwilling to collude with these immortal cultivation families and choose other ways of survival, but the pills they make can generally only appear in these small gatherings.

The pills sold here are generally cheaper than those sold in the market. It is common for nearby immortal cultivation families to come here to purchase pills for the sake of a few spirit stones. "

After listening to Song Qingming's words, Qin Zhen was relieved and said, "I said that you are so young, why do you need so many pills? It turns out that you are purchasing for your family. "

"If you can introduce a way, you can buy talismans from me in the future at a 10% discount on the market price, is that okay?"

After saying that, Song Qingming took out a few of this person's favorite Qingxin Talismans from the pile of talismans in front of him and stuffed them into Qin Zhen's hands.

"It's okay, it's okay. After the meeting, please wait for me here for a while. "

Seeing that Song Qingming was so sensible, Qin Zhen happily agreed. A casual cultivator like him often hangs out in various gatherings. In addition to going out to adventure and hunt monsters, he can only rely on buying and selling some information in the market to exchange for some cultivation resources.

Not long after Qin Zhen left, a beautiful woman with a veil came to Song Qingming's stall.

This woman had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, white teeth and red lips. She was wearing a light pink palace dress, with a delicate figure. The hem of her skirt was embroidered with light blue butterflies that were about to spread their wings and fly. She was covered with a layer of white gauze. Her cultivation was a little higher than Song Qingming's, and she had reached the fifth level of Qi Refining.

This was the first time that Song Qingming had seen such a stunning female cultivator in the past few months in Caolu Mountain. He couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

After stopping in front of Song Qingming's stall, she carefully looked at the sign on the table of the stall. After thinking for a while, she said, "Will you take the medium-grade silver leaf grass? "

Song Qingming only felt the sound, which was as clear and pleasant as a wind chime. After coming to his senses, he quickly replied: "I won't accept the middle-grade ones, but the lower-grade ones are fine."

Silverleaf grass is also one of the spiritual herbs needed to make blank talismans, but Song Qingming is only a lower-grade talisman maker now, and it is a bit of a waste to use the middle-grade materials. He doesn't have many spiritual stones, so he naturally won't waste them to buy this.

The pink-clothed woman saw Song Qingming's refusal, and her face showed some displeasure. After hesitating for a moment, she said: "I still have some lower-grade elixirs that can improve cultivation. Can I exchange them for all the Qingxin talismans on your table?"

"Elixirs that can improve cultivation? Show me which kind it is first."

Song Qingming was a little surprised when he heard that the woman wanted to exchange pills for his talismans. He didn't know what strange wind blew today. In the past, few people in this market took pills to exchange for talismans. How come today he met two people who could exchange pills.

After listening to Song Qingming's words, the pink-clothed woman did not answer. She took out a small bottle and put it on the table.

Took the purple bottle handed over by the other party, opened the jade bottle, poured out a pill, lowered his head and smelled the medicinal properties carefully.

"This is the "Yangqi Pill"."

Song Qingming took out a small bottle of his own and put three pills in it. He put the remaining pills in the bottle and the ten or so Qingxin Talismans on the table in front of the other party.

"Your Yangqi Pill, one is about three spirit stones on the market, and my dozen talismans are only worth three pills of yours. If you agree, we will exchange. "

The pink-dressed woman nodded without hesitation and quickly put away the pills and talismans. She looked at Song Qingming and turned away.

After completing this business, Song Qingming's luck seemed to have run out. He never encountered such a good opportunity to exchange pills again.

However, the sales of the talismans he displayed have been very stable. He sold most of them in a day and received some materials for making talismans. Only the black stone that Uncle Jiu left with him remained untouched and no one was interested in it.

——

At dusk, the sun was setting in the west. On the west side of Caolu Mountain, Song Qingming looked at the person who sold pills introduced by Qin Zhen and smiled bitterly.

The familiar figure in front of him was the pink-dressed woman who had traded pills for talismans with him today, but he had never thought that the woman would sell the remaining pills.

It was a pity that he had lost those Qingxin Talismans that he had worked so hard to make.

The pink-dressed woman still wore a white veil. Although Song Qingming had not seen the woman's face clearly, he quickly confirmed from her clothes that she was the stunning woman who had traded with him half a day ago.

The pink-dressed woman was also a little surprised to see Song Qingming and asked Qin Zhen: "Fellow Daoist Qin, is this the person you said you wanted to buy pills from?"

"Fairy Gao, this is Fellow Daoist Song, also a cultivator from a nearby family, with a good reputation in Caolu Mountain. This time he came to purchase some pills for his elders."

Qin Zhen seemed to be a little respectful to the woman, and his tone was a little afraid that she was not satisfied with Song Qingming as a trading partner.

The pink-dressed woman heard Qin Zhen's introduction and asked Song Qingming again.

"Are you from the Song family in Funiushan?"

"Funiushan, Song family, Song Qingming."

Song Qingming saw that the woman knew his origin at once, thinking that he must be a person who has been practicing in this area for many years, so he did not hide it anymore and said his name generously.

After hearing Song Qingming's answer, the pink-clothed woman thought for a long time, and finally seemed to have made up her mind and threw a yellow cloth bag to Qin Zhen.

After Qin Zhen took the cloth bag, he opened it and took a look, nodded happily at the two of them, and quickly left here.

Until Qin Zhen walked out of the sight of the two, the woman in white slowly spoke: "I wonder what kind of elixirs do you need, Fellow Daoist Song?"

"All the elixirs that can enhance mana, such as the Qi-nourishing Pill, the more the better."

"I only want spirit stones, nothing else."

"Of course."

After saying that, the woman in pink took out several identical purple jade bottles and put them in Song Qingming's hands. Song Qingming took them and saw that the three bottles were all the Qi-nourishing Pills he had always dreamed of. He was shocked and couldn't help but have more guesses about the woman in pink.

To be able to take out so many Qi-nourishing Pills at once, this woman's alchemy level must be very high. She is not comparable to the junior alchemist like my second sister. She is at least a mid-level alchemist, and there are not many such people in Qinghe County.

"My pills are all of excellent quality. If you want a whole bottle, I can give you two fewer spirit stones."

Song Qingming nodded in agreement, accepted a bottle of pills, and took out a bag of spirit stones and handed it to the woman.

"I came out in a hurry this time and didn't bring many spirit stones with me. I only need one bottle today. For the rest, you can find me at the place where we had the last meeting next month. I will set up a stall here every month. As long as the quality is guaranteed, I can buy it for a long time."

"As long as you have spirit stones, the quality of the pills I refine is guaranteed. However, if you want long-term cooperation, I have another request."

"Fairy, please speak."

"You can't tell your clan members about our transaction. This is not difficult for you."

Song Qingming was a little puzzled by the strange request of the pink-clothed woman, but after thinking carefully, maybe her alchemy inheritance came from Qinghefang, so she didn't want them, the family cultivators, to know her identity.

"Okay!"

Compared with her, Song Qingming didn't want his clan members to know the secret of how he earned spirit stones now. For him, the most important thing now was to be able to exchange for pills to improve his cultivation.

He only dared to take a few of these pills to the family's gold storage pavilion to exchange for talisman materials. If he took all of them, how could he explain clearly when the fourth elder asked him where he got the spiritual stones to purchase the pills? In the eyes of other members of the Song family, he only had 20 to 30 spiritual stones on him at most.

The pink-clothed woman nodded at the spiritual stones, put them into the storage bag with satisfaction, and was about to leave.

"May I ask the fairy's name."

"Gao Yuyao."
