Chapter 52 Purple Mysterious Fruit
Everyone smiled and looked at them when they heard this.
"Okay, we believe it."
"You will definitely get better and better."
"Is this the child you picked up? She looks so cute. I don't know what kind of parents are so cruel!"
"That's right. Others want to get pregnant but can't, but this one abandons the baby after giving birth. How heartless."
Because cultivators have a long lifespan and have achieved immortality against the will of heaven, it is actually quite difficult for them to have children. The higher their cultivation level, the harder it is to have children. This is probably a form of suppression by heaven.
Mortals often have two or three children, but monks can only have one or two at most. It is extremely difficult to have more than two.
It is indeed rare for a child to be born but then abandoned.
Chen Lan and Ji Qingqing still had smiles on their faces when they started listening, but they became visibly nervous as they listened on.
They quickly glanced at Mo Jiuwei——
Regarding Mo Jiuwei's parents, no one in the Xianlai Sect dared to mention it these days!
Because Mo Jiuwei is not an ignorant child, she can understand what everyone is saying, so talking about this in front of her is like stabbing her in the heart!
No one wanted to mention her sad story, for fear of upsetting her, so they avoided it on purpose.
Anyway, even if her parents don't want her, the Xianlai Sect will still want her and will take care of her like a treasure, not letting her receive any less love than other children!
But parents are parents after all, and no one else can replace them. If Jiu Wei minds, then wouldn’t it be...
But when they watched, they did not see any obvious sadness on Mo Jiuwei's face, as if she was not affected by these words at all.
But Chen Lan and the others quickly changed the subject and did not continue talking about it. Just at this time, another person came to ask for the price.
Maybe because the price and quality were acceptable, we closed another deal.
When Ji Qingqing and the others went to see Mo Jiuwei again, they found that... she had fallen asleep again!
The two were a little amused, but also relieved.
The time spent at the stall passed quickly. They only sold about 30% of the goods, and then it got dark quickly.
Darkness does not mean the end of business. On the contrary, the market becomes particularly lively at night, and even some empty stalls during the day are rented out.
This is also known as the "night market".
The reason why there are night markets is that there are some things whose origins are questionable and "cannot be seen in public". They are too conspicuous during the day, so they are suitable for trading at night.
Some of these things were stolen or robbed, some were obtained by killing people for treasures, and some were very controversial things like poisons... In order to sell them quickly, the prices are often very good, and many monks want to come and have a look with the idea of getting a good deal.
The default rule is that once the transaction is completed, the market owner will not be responsible for anything bought at the night market. If there is a problem, you will be at fault if you come to them. The seller may even deny that the item was sold to him.
Chen Lan looked to the right. The stall here was empty during the day, but now it was rented by a middle-aged male cultivator.
He is skinny, looks shifty, and has a strong sense of stealing.
When he came, he looked around first, and then put the things out.
After seeing the things on his stall, Chen Lan and Ji Qingqing were silent.
What can I say about these things? There is everything, and the range is huge. You can tell at a glance that they are not from legitimate sources.
At Qingfeng Ridge, four foundation-building cultivators tried to kill the disciples of Xianlai Sect and seize their treasures, but failed. Not only did they not kill anyone, they were killed instead. Their storage bags fell into the hands of the disciples of Xianlai Sect.
After opening it, the things inside looked like this, messy and it was obvious that they had different owners.
But Chen Lan and the others took one look and then looked away——
Even if it was not legitimate, so what? Such things happened a lot in the world of immortal cultivation, and no one would care.
Just like they killed those four foundation-building monks and took away their storage bags, it was as natural as anything.
But if they were no match for their opponent and were killed by those four, and their wealth was taken away by them, that would be only natural.
All I can say is that my skills are not as good as others.
However, they just turned their heads without any interest and heard Mo Jiuwei's excited shout -
[Ah! Good stuff! Guoguo!]
【Take it down, take it down, take it down! 】
Chen Lan was startled and looked at Mo Jiuwei, only to find that she was staring at a spot on the male cultivator's stall, using her hands and feet excitedly.
Fruit? Could it be the spiritual fruit?
That spiritual fruit is on this stall?
But there were too many things there and they were too complicated, and for a moment Chen Lan didn't know which one Mo Jiuwei was talking about.
"Senior Sister..." Ji looked at Chen Lan lightly, asking with her eyes whether she should go over and search for it.
Chen Lan thought about it, shook her head, and mouthed the word "wait".
This person has just arrived and looks very smart. Don't rush up to him and ask him. Just observe him for a while.
A passerby happened to pass by at this time, and stopped for a while after seeing the new stall.
"They are all good stuff, take a look, they are definitely at good prices!" said the male stall owner with a smile.
The customer squatted down, rummaged around on the ground, and then spotted a hairpin. "Is this made of sunken gold ore? How much is it?"
Chen Lan's eyes followed his hands, and she noticed that as he was pulling, a small lavender fruit rolled out.
Looking at Mo Jiuwei, her eyes followed the fruit and she was almost drooling.
Chen Lan immediately figured it out -
It seems to be this fruit.
But then she became puzzled because she didn't recognize what kind of spiritual fruit it was.
She glanced at Ji Qingqing, and it was obvious that she was also confused and did not recognize him.
[Ahh, it’s really the Purple Mysterious Fruit! ]
[Great, I can use it to grow fruit! ]
[But how can I get the senior sisters to buy it...]
Mo Jiuwei was in a dilemma and her brows were furrowed.
Only then did Chen Lan realize what this thing was.
The purple fruit, to be precise, is the seed of the purple fruit!
The purple fruit looks small, but it is full of spiritual energy. Eating it is equivalent to practicing.
What's more, it tastes great. Even if it has no effect, the taste alone is enough for people to love it.
There are very few purple fruits because they are too sweet. While they are still growing, they will be targeted by nearby monsters and cultivators, who will swallow them before they can even mature.
It is even said that even the trunks of fruit trees contain sweet juice, which is rich in a faint spiritual energy and can be directly absorbed by monsters.
This means that not only will the fruits be gone early, but even the trunks of the trees may be uprooted by monsters...
I didn’t expect there would be a purple fruit seed here!
