Chapter 203 Xiaoqian
Xiaoyao Pavilion.
Sixty-year-old shopkeeper Shi Yizhu cleared away the haze of not being able to become Shen Tuyun's registered disciple.
Seeing Yang Che's arrival, he seemed even more enthusiastic than before, and there was even a hint of flattery in his expression.
This surprised Yang Che.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang came just in time. Shopkeeper Xia has told her that if you come, let her know immediately. Please wait for a moment."
With that said, Shi Yizhu jumped over the counter and walked into the inner room.
When Shi Yizhu came to the inner room, his expression immediately changed.
It is no longer enthusiasm and flattery, but hesitation and struggle, and even a hint of jealousy.
With a cold and cruel look in his eyes, Shi Yizhu finally took out two transmission notes one after another, and after transmitting the sound respectively, he walked out of the room.
He put on a warm and flattering expression and helped Yang Che make a cup of spiritual tea.
Yang Che looked indifferent, but he couldn't help but feel suspicious in his heart.
He clearly remembered that the previous owner of Shi Yizhu Chuanyinxia did it directly in front of him.
But why did you have to go into the inner room this time, as if you were afraid that he would see it?
Yang Che was thinking in his heart, without showing any emotion on his face, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
After about a meal, an ordinary-looking female cultivator in the early stage of pill formation walked in.
"Senior Sister Xia."
When Yang Che saw Shopkeeper Xia, he immediately stood up and saluted him.
He thought that the Xia shop owner didn't know that he was Shen Tuyun's junior brother, and that his revealed cultivation was only at the peak of the later stage of foundation building, so he simply called her senior sister to save trouble.
Shopkeeper Xia was startled for a moment, then realized it quickly. A smile appeared on his face and he said, "I really didn't expect that it has only been so long before you have become my junior brother."
The 60-year-old old man Shi Yizhu beside him felt even more unhappy when he saw this scene, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.
Shopkeeper Xia seemed to be a very straightforward person. Without any nonsense, he directly took out five high-level elementary talismans, handed them to Yang Che and said: "Junior Brother Zhang, these are the high-level elementary talismans you want. Now you also know that this talisman is It was made by Master. Since you have become Master’s registered disciple, the price of this full-grained star pattern stone will be reduced by more than 30%.”
Shopkeeper Xia did the math, and then said: "Originally, you only need to pay 2,200 yuan for the 3,300 yuan full of star-patterned stones. You have already paid 1,650 yuan before, and you can Just give me five hundred and fifty yuan."
Yang Che did not expect such a good thing, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was both unexpected and reasonable.
After taking five high-level talismans and giving 550 full-grained star-patterned stones to Shopkeeper Xia, Yang Che heard Shopkeeper Xia say again: "Junior Brother Zhang, if you need high-level talismans in the future, just contact Master directly to make a reservation. "
Yang Che nodded. Seeing Shopkeeper Xia leaving, he immediately stepped forward and whispered: "Senior Sister Xia, I want to buy a map to the 'Dark Demon Valley'. I wonder if Senior Sister has it here?"
"Going to Dark Demon Valley?"
Shopkeeper Xia's expression changed slightly: "That is the most dangerous place in the Dark Abyss. Even Nascent Soul cultivators dare not enter easily. I advise junior brother not to take any chances with the Dark Demon Valley."
Shi Yizhu on the side also changed his face when he heard the words "Dark Demon Valley", showing fear.
But soon, a hint of unknown joy flashed across his eyes.
Yang Che cupped his hands and said, "Senior Sister Xia, if you have any, just sell me a share."
A strange look flashed in Shopkeeper Xia's eyes, but he pondered for a moment before giving Yang Che a jade map slip and admonishing him again: "Junior Brother Zhang, I will give you this map as a gift. However, the Dark Demon Valley is extremely dangerous. If you are just curious, it’s okay to take a look outside, but you must not enter it.”
Taking the jade slip of the map, Yang Che thanked him sincerely: "Thank you, senior sister. I will keep this in mind and will not enter rashly."
Shopkeeper Xia nodded, told Shi Yizhu a few words about things in Xiaoyao Pavilion, and left.
After Yang Che achieved the purpose of his trip, he naturally stood up and left.
After Yang Che left, the eyes of the sixty-year-old old man Shi Yizhu suddenly turned gloomy.
He quickly walked into the inner room and took out a transmission note again...
After Yang Che left Xiaoyao Pavilion, he did not return to the ancient residence immediately. Instead, he wandered around Yuanfang City.
Since you have decided to sneak into the Dark Demon Valley secretly, you must be fully prepared.
For monks in the pill-forming stage, since they have begun to refine their natal magic weapons, most of the time they enter the market are to improve their defense or to find some materials that are useful to them.
For Yang Che, he naturally hopes to find some useful materials.
Unknowingly, Yang Che came to the stall owner who was almost paralyzed by him just by looking at him.
When the stall owner, who was in the middle stage of foundation building, saw Yang Che arriving, he was immediately horrified. He immediately saluted with fear and utmost respect: "Senior, this junior was blind last time, so I still look to senior..."
Yang Che interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said calmly: "Do you have any dark attribute refining materials here?"
In fact, he just asked casually without any hope.
After all, what kind of rare materials can a stall owner in the middle stage of foundation building produce?
Unexpectedly, the stall owner in the middle stage of foundation building hesitated for a moment and immediately said: "Junior has something that seems to have dark attributes, but it is placed in another place. Senior, wait a moment, and junior will go get it now."
Yang Che frowned, but still nodded.
The stall owner left quickly.
After about a quarter of an hour, the stall owner returned, and at the same time, there was a young woman in the early stage of foundation building beside him.
This woman looks very pure and lovely, with a tall figure. She wears a well-cut aqua dress, revealing her fair neck, and has a faint virgin fragrance coming from her body.
"Senior, this is my sister-in-law. She is afraid that I will be deceived, so she insists on following me." The stall owner was afraid that Yang Che would be displeased, so he immediately introduced him cautiously.
Yang Che didn't pay attention, and just asked lightly: "What are you talking about?"
The stall owner immediately said to his sister: "Xiaoqian, take it out quickly."
The woman named Xiaoqian reluctantly took out the things.
She didn't understand why her brother was so afraid of a late-stage foundation-building peak cultivator.
The stall owner snatched the items away and then handed them directly to Yang Che respectfully.
When the woman named Xiaoqian saw her brother acting like this, she even pouted her rosy lips, showing a very dissatisfied look on her brother.
The stall owner shook his head helplessly, and only he knew the bitterness in his heart.
The moment the innocent woman took out the thing, Yang Che was suddenly startled, and then his eyes were locked on it.
This is actually a piece of gray stone!
It was very similar to the stone piece he accidentally dug up near the mysterious underground ruins.
Now hold it in your hand and look at it carefully.
Yang Che discovered that this piece of stone was only about half the size of the one he got.
It is still incomplete from top to bottom, but quite neat on the left and right.
Engraved on it were what seemed to be very ancient characters and strange patterns, almost exactly the same as his piece of stone.
Yang Che's face remained calm and calm.
After holding the stone piece in his hand and looking at it for a while, he frowned and asked, "What is this and what does it do?"
Seeing that Yang Che couldn't figure out the origin of this thing, the stall owner couldn't help but reveal a wry smile and said:
"Senior, to be honest, this stone piece was something my father got by chance. Because my little sister has done some research on ancient writing, she can vaguely see that the symbols on it seem to be a kind of writing from ancient times, but its meaning is , but it has never been able to be cracked, so it is useless to keep it in your hands. If it is useful to senior, just take it. "
"Brother, didn't you agree to sell it?"
Xiaoqian on the side couldn't stand it anymore.
What happened to my always shrewd brother?
"Xiaoqian, please leave it alone."
The stall owner suddenly said coldly to his sister.
Yang Che remained expressionless and indifferent.
Seeing that the brother and sister in front of him were about to have a dispute, regardless of whether the brother and sister had discussed it in advance or showed their true feelings, he said indifferently: "Let's make an offer."
Before the stall owner could speak, the pure and tall woman Xiaoqian immediately said: "A thousand pieces of stone full of star patterns."
When he heard his sister's quotation, the stall owner was immediately startled, his heart was beating wildly, and his hands and feet were trembling.
