Chapter 529: Rare Scorpion Pincer Soul Bone! Dugu Bo's Negotiation Was Frustrated!
Seeing that his loud complaints aroused the attention of the people around him, Zhuge Lan quickly pulled Dugu Bo aside and whispered:
"Look at you, why are you shouting so loudly? Others think something is wrong with you."
Zhuge Lan comforted and said:
"Let's calm down first. Maybe there is still a way to find that woman."
Dugu Bo snorted:
"How to find her? It's such a huge sea of people, she has already disappeared."
Zhuge Lan scratched his head and his eyes suddenly lit up:
"How about we ask the stall owners around, maybe someone knows that woman."
Dugu Bo thought about it and thought it made sense, so he and Zhuge Lan went to ask nearby stall owners.
Everyone said they didn't know the middle-aged woman, or if they knew it, they didn't dare to say anything for fear of getting into trouble.
After asking around, I found nothing.
Zhuge Lan sighed and said:
"There is no way. In this ghost market, everyone has deeply hidden their true identity. It would be extremely difficult to find the stall owner. We were all caught off guard by this. But then again, this It is also a reminder to us that people are unpredictable in the ghost market and we must not be careless in our transactions.”
Dugu Bo calmed down and gradually loosened his clenched fists, but there was still a bit of unwillingness in his eyebrows:
"You are right, brat. I was careless this time. However, how could I, Dugu Bo, be defeated so easily? I will bear this grudge."
Zhuge Lan patted Dugu Bo on the shoulder and said:
"Old Poison, don't just think about revenge, we have to think about what to do next. Although this ghost market is a mixed bag, it also hides a lot of treasures and opportunities. We can't be scared off by a setback like this."
Dugubo nodded slightly:
"Hmph, of course I won't give up just like that. But this woman is so good at deception and can slip away under our noses. She must have some tricks and background in this ghost market. We have to be careful and don't fall for her again. road."
"Then why don't we wander around again and see if we can find some clues about her? Or maybe we can come across other useful things."
Zhuge Lan suggested.
Dugubo thought for a moment and said:
"Okay, let's just go shopping again. But this time we have to be more cautious and we can't be as reckless as before."
The two regrouped and continued to wander around the ghost market. They carefully observed the treasures in each stall.
At the same time, he also paid attention to every move of the people around him to see if he could find any trace of the middle-aged woman.
At this moment, Dugu Bo's eyes were attracted by a stall with a faint purple light, and he quickly stepped forward.
There are all kinds of strange items on the stall, the most eye-catching of which is a pair of purple scorpion claw soul bones.
This pair of scorpion pincers exudes a faint cool air, and there seems to be faint soul power fluctuations in the pincers.
When Zhuge Lan saw this, although he didn't know what he found, he quickly followed him.
Dugu Bo squatted down, picked up the scorpion claw soul bone and looked at it carefully, with excitement in his eyes:
"Hey, this thing is interesting."
Although the stall owner of this stall wears a mask that covers his entire head, the wrinkled skin on his hands can be seen from the vicissitudes of life.
The stall owner should be an elderly man.
I saw him saying unhurriedly:
"This gentleman has good eyesight. This is a scorpion clamp soul bone obtained from a mysterious place. It is extremely toxic and powerful. If it can be absorbed by a suitable soul master, its strength will definitely increase greatly."
"What do you think of these soul bones?"
Dugu Bo asked in a low voice.
Zhuge Lan looked at it carefully, nodded and said:
"It is indeed extraordinary. Judging from the color and aura, it must have been made by a high-level soul beast."
Suddenly, Dugu Bo seemed to have thought of something.
He hurriedly opened the poison prescription he got at Wuhun Palace and looked at the contents carefully.
It states that among the required materials, there really is this scorpion-clamping soul bone!
Dugu Bo's heart was in a state of turmoil. He didn't expect to see such hard-to-find materials in this ghost market.
However, he still acted calmly and looked at Zhuge Lan.
"Old Poison, do you want these soul bones?"
Zhuge Lan saw Dugu Bo's thoughts and asked.
Dugubo nodded slightly and said softly:
"Judging from the aura emitted by this pair of soul bones, this is definitely not an ordinary thing. Moreover, the poison-making recipe of Wuhun Palace also requires this scorpion pincer as a material."
Dugubo looked at the stall owner and asked:
"Old man, how did you get these pair of soul bones?"
The stall owner didn't even look at them, he just said disdainfully:
"Is this your first time coming to the ghost market? I wonder what the rules are here. In the ghost market, treasures don't ask where they come from."
"If I don't know where it comes from, then how do I know if yours is real or fake?"
Dugu Bo retorted.
The stall owner snorted coldly and said impatiently:
"Since you don't know and don't know how to look at the baby, then don't buy it and get out."
Oops! Zhuge Lan suddenly became furious because he dared to use such an attitude when selling things.
He stood up suddenly and was about to curse, but fortunately Dugu Bo quickly stopped him with his quick eyesight and hands.
Dugu Bo grabbed Zhuge Lan and said softly:
"Don't be arrogant, we really need these scorpion pliers. If this old man is stubborn and refuses to sell it to us even if he has money, then we will miss a treasure."
Dugu Bo pulled Zhuge Lan behind him, still with a calm look on his face, and bowed slightly to the stall owner and said:
"Old man, don't be angry, my friend is a little impatient. But we are indeed very interested in this scorpion claw soul bone, just want to know more, no offense."
The stall owner raised his eyelids, glanced at them coldly, and said:
"Humph, since you want to buy it, don't ask so much nonsense. The quality of this soul bone is here, and those who know the goods will naturally know its value."
Dugu Bo smiled and said:
"Old man, please name a price. As long as the price is right, we want this soul bone."
The stall owner stretched out a hand, spread his five fingers, and shook it in front of them.
"Five thousand gold soul coins?"
Zhuge Lan asked.
Hearing Zhuge Lan say five thousand, the stall owner took his hand back directly:
"If you don't want to buy, just get out of here, don't affect my business, it's unlucky."
Dugu Bo was also panicking. Zhuge Lan challenged the stall owner's bottom line again and again. He was really afraid that the stall owner would be angry and stop selling them.
"Is it fifty thousand gold soul coins, old man?"
Dugu Bo asked politely.
The stall owner rolled his eyes at him and snorted:
"Fifty thousand? Do you think my soul bone is an ordinary thing? Five hundred thousand gold soul coins, I won't sell it for a penny less!"
"Five hundred thousand!"
Dugu Bo also frowned slightly. This is not a small amount. (End of this chapter)
