"Fellow Daoist, are you pretending to be confused, or do you really not understand?" Lie Hong looked at the fatty with a cold face, then turned and left without looking back!
"Eh?
What's going on? "
Xiao Hua was stunned from afar. Not only him, but the people around him, including Wan Lei and the rest at the stall, were also surprised. However, Lie Hong was an elder of the Hundred Herbs Gate, and his forte was refining pills. Even he did not look at it anymore. There was definitely a huge problem with this pill formula.
"Fellow Daoist, Senior Lie has left. This pill formula of yours … let me take a look!" Wan Lei thought for a moment, then went forward and asked.
"I won't look, I won't look. I don't plan to sell it!" The fatty was a little disappointed and wanted to keep the booklet.
"Fellow Daoist, you called all of us here, and now you don't plan to sell it. Who do you think we are?"
Wan Lei sneered. "Your face was seen by all of us. Although the disciples of Jingpo City don't care about this, once you leave Jingpo City …"
Before Wan Lei could finish, the fatty's face turned pale. He hurriedly handed over the booklet and smiled apologetically. "Fellow Daoist Wan, please take a look!"
Wan Lei coldly received the booklet and casually glanced at it. Then, he snorted and threw the booklet back into the fatty's arms. He said, "This kind of pill recipe only has the main ingredient, the secondary ingredient, and the refining process. However, it doesn't have the most important technique. This kind of pill recipe … is simply a waste of paper. It's the same as this poor Daoist telling you that the Foundation Establishment Pill is refined from Exquisite Grass. How much spirit stones do you think these words are worth?"
"Moreover, the main ingredient of your pill formula, Yellow Grass, has long been lost. This pill formula … tsk tsk …"
After he finished speaking, he also left!
"Liar!
This bastard … Look at yourself carefully. You actually want to cheat your grandfather of his spirit stones … "Many people who came up had fiery tempers and turned hostile on the spot.
"I … I …" The fatty held the pill formula in his hands like a hot potato. No one knew what he wanted to say.
When the surrounding people heard this, they immediately dispersed. Not to mention that there were only Spiritual Herbs in the recipe and not the most valuable incantation, the main ingredient of the recipe had already been lost. Even if they had the incantation to refine the pill, it would be useless. Who would stay for a moment longer?
When he saw that everyone had dispersed, Xiao Hua was slightly hesitant, and he stood at the side and waited silently for a long time. After everyone had left, he stepped forward and cupped his hands with a smile. "Fellow Daoist, let me take a look at your pill formula!"
The fat man was extremely disappointed and helpless. When he saw a cultivator whose cultivation he couldn't see through, he bitterly smiled and said, "Could it be that fellow cultivator is interested in the incomplete pill recipe?"
"Hehe, I just want to experience it!" Xiao Hua laughed.
"Please ~" The fatty feebly handed over the booklet he threw on the stall. Xiao Hua took it, but he didn't look at it carefully. He casually flipped through it, then handed it back. He smiled and said, "This pill recipe is really interesting. If fellow daoist has the second half, it would be worth a lot!"
"Fellow Daoist, please don't laugh at me!" The fatty smiled bitterly. "The latter half has already been burned by I!
Where are we going to look? "
"Burned?
Why is that? "Xiao Hua was shocked.
"Sigh, let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it. I didn't know the importance of this pill recipe back then, so I just casually tore it up to keep warm. I also only saw the pill recipe a few days ago …" The fatty was obviously extremely regretful.
"So it's like that!"
Xiao Hua cupped his hands and turned to leave. However, after taking a few steps, he turned his head and asked, "Oh right, I want to buy this pill recipe of yours and take a look. Are you willing to sell it?"
"Fellow Daoist, this is …" The fatty looked at Xiao Hua, somewhat puzzled. "This is a pill recipe that's like a piece of scrap paper?"
"Hehe, everything has its value. This pill recipe is indeed a piece of scrap paper, but it can also be used as a reference. If fellow daoist wants to exchange it for some spirit stones, you can name a price!" Xiao Hua said calmly.
"Fellow Daoist, how many spirit stones are you planning to pay?" The fatty asked back.
"Haha, fellow daoist, don't think too much. If your pill recipe is worth a lot, I won't ask too much!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.
"Sigh, alright. If fellow daoist is interested, how about … how about a hundred high-grade spirit stones?" The fatty hesitated and said.
"A hundred?" Xiao Hua was stunned and shook his head. "Fellow daoist, you've gone crazy from wanting to get rich!
Just pretend I didn't say anything! "
With that, Xiao Hua turned around and left, seemingly without hesitation.
"Sigh … fellow daoist, don't be anxious. We can discuss the price …" The fatty immediately chased out and pulled Xiao Hua's sleeve. "How about fifty?
Just fifty! "
Xiao Hua stood there and looked coldly. The fatty knew that he was waiting for him to lower the price, so he could only say again. "Then … then thirty?
Thirty high-grade spirit stones? "
"Fellow daoist, I only have twenty middle-grade spirit stones. If fellow daoist is interested, then take them!" Xiao Hua also didn't dawdle. He clapped his hands and twenty middle-grade spirit stones were placed on the stall.
"Twenty middle-grade spirit stones?" Obviously, this price was out of the fatty's expectations and made him stunned.
"It seems that fellow daoist is somewhat reluctant. Then I will take my leave!" Xiao Hua said and was about to use his hand to put away the spirit stones.
"Wait!"
The fatty decisively shouted. With a wave of his hand, he put away the twenty middle-grade spirit stones into his storage pouch at lightning speed. Then, he handed over the pill formula and said with a smile, "Fellow daoist, thank you for your great kindness. Please take care of the pill formula!"
"This …" Looking at the fatty's completely different expression from before and seeing that the fatty didn't seem to be depressed, Xiao Hua … directly felt … that he had been deceived!
"Cough cough, fellow daoist … please take care!"
The fatty cupped his hands and said, "I already tore up the latter half of the pill formula. I have already regretted it for a long time. I only wanted to turn back time, but this is absolutely impossible. So, there's no use in regretting it. Today, this waste paper can actually be exchanged for twenty middle-grade spirit stones. I am also perfectly satisfied. Fellow daoist, do you think … I's words are correct?"
"Hehe, contentment brings joy. You have to think positively about everything. Just this sentence alone is worth 75 mid-grade spirit stones. This poor Daoist has learned something." Xiao Hua cupped his hands and bowed, then left with a smile.
Xiao Hua waited until they were far away and hid in a secluded place before he happily took out the pill recipe. Although this booklet was called a pill recipe, it was somewhat inappropriate. Ordinary pill recipes only talked about how to refine the pill, but this pill recipe had the characteristics of the main ingredients and auxiliary ingredients written down. The refining process was also very detailed.
Xiao Hua originally didn't plan to buy this booklet. He only wanted to see what the pill formula looked like. However, when he saw the two main ingredients in the pill formula, Yellow Nightmare Grass and Supreme Marrow Fruit, his heart was wild with joy. Only then did he have the intention to buy it!
Needless to say, the Extreme Marrow Fruit was the main ingredient for refining pills. It existed in many pills. Although it was rare, Xiao Hua had already bought its seeds from Yi Ji and planted them in the space at the back of his head.
As for the Yellow Nightmare Grass that Wan Lei said had been lost, Xiao Hua had never seen it mature. However, this pill formula gave the seed of the Yellow Nightmare Grass and its appearance as a seedling.
Coincidentally, in the pile of seeds that Xiao Hua had obtained from the Hundred Herbs Gate, one of them was precisely the Yellow Nightmare Grass. And this Yellow Nightmare Grass in Xiao Hua's space had already revealed its seedling!
Xiao Hua also looked at the seedling in the pill formula and thought of the seedling in the space. After confirming that it was indeed the Yellow Nightmare Grass, he decided to buy the pill formula!
As for the pill formula that was missing, Xiao Hua naturally didn't have it. Although this pill formula was incomplete, it was still a pill formula. Buying it for twenty middle-grade spirit stones, no matter how Xiao Hua thought about it, it was worth it!
After carefully looking at it, Xiao Hua had a general understanding of the spiritual herbs used in this pill formula. Most of the spiritual herbs were available in his space and only a few of them needed to be bought. After carefully storing the pill formula into his space, Xiao Hua looked for a stall and began to buy spiritual herbs.
There were many people in Yi Ji City and there were many spiritual herbs. The price of many spiritual herbs didn't rise but fell instead. Xiao Hua used the time it took to eat a meal to find the remaining spiritual herbs. Moreover, he didn't spend a lot of spirit stones. There was no other reason than that this guy only bought the seedlings and seeds of spiritual herbs. It would be strange if they were expensive!
Just when Xiao Hua found the seedling of the last spiritual herb and was thinking about where to go next, a large stall appeared in front of him. There were a lot of spiritual herbs on the stall. There were also some healing and qi replenishing pills. Several disciples wearing the Hundred Herbs Gate's uniform were busy receiving the cultivators who were buying the pills and spiritual herbs.
Xiao Hua's eyes narrowed. He walked over and a disciple greeted him with a smile. "Fellow Daoist, do you want to buy the pills on the stall?"
"Hehe, there aren't any pills to buy. I want to see if there are any thirty-year-old Black Tuber Grass. I want to refine some Peiyuan Pill for the younger generation!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.
"Oh, thirty-year-old Black Tuber Grass. It's a specialty of my Hundred Herbs Gate. How many do you want?" The disciple said with a smile.
Xiao Hua's heart became colder. He asked, "How many do you have in your house?"
The disciple was stunned. He looked back and scratched his head. "There should be at least a thousand of them. Don't tell me you want all of them?
Oh, if it's not enough, please give me a Communication Talisman. After Yi Ji City, my Hundred Herbs Gate's disciples will deliver them to the immortal mansion! "
"Hmph ~" Xiao Hua didn't want to stay any longer. He turned around and left.
"Aiyo, Fellow Daoist … Fellow Daoist …" The disciple was very confused. He didn't know what he said wrong. He was about to raise his hand to greet Xiao Hua, but when Xiao Hua left, another cultivator came over. The disciple immediately changed his attitude and greeted the person who came later.
"Black Tuber Grass!
Black Tuber Grass!!
Hundred Herbs Gate seems to have a lot of it, but when I went to ask for it, they looked embarrassed and only gave me a very small amount. If they don't covet my Shang Huaming, I won't believe it even if you beat me to death!
Hmph, Jiang Jiantong … Just you wait! "Xiao Hua's eyes were burning with anger.
After turning a few corners, he saw a dozen or so stalls not far away. They were selling a bunch of random things. Xiao Hua had nowhere to vent his anger. When he saw the stall owner of one of the stalls, he couldn't help but sneer. He quickly walked over …
The stall owner was a tall man with a pink and white face. He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, but his cultivation was only in the third layer of the Aura Refining realm. When he saw Xiao Hua coming over, he hurriedly greeted him. "Fellow Daoist, do you want to buy anything?"
