Chapter 27 [Additional chapter with thanks for 50,000 favorites]...

Whenever there is a large event, the most exciting thing for ordinary cultivators who already have a master or are not in a hurry to join a sect is to go to the market.

Just as there is always a piece of clothing missing from a woman's closet, there is always a piece of material missing from an instrument maker's treasure house.

Yan Luoyue sat in the crook of Yan Gan's arms, happily led by her two brothers, sweeping from the beginning to the end of the market.

Silver Ring Earth, buy. Heart Stone, buy. Frost and Dew, buy.

In a word, buy, buy, buy!

Yan Luoyue was ruthless along the way and took away materials worth hundreds of spirit stones without blinking an eye.

When purchasing the Heart Stone, a small incident occurred.

You should know that the Heart-to-Heart Stone was originally used by Taoist couples to form a bond.

This kind of stone is always for sale.

For cultivators below the Jindan level, once they are bound together, both parties will be like a pair of birds with wings: if one dies, the other will definitely not survive alone.

But there are very few couples who can reach this level.

Therefore, later on, this kind of stone was generally used by partners in the same boat to sign a contract, and the two parties would untie it after achieving the cooperation goal.

Therefore, when Yan Luoyue wanted to buy this kind of stone, Yan Gan's first reaction was...

"Sister, do you have another big business to do?"

Yan Luoyue rubbed her forehead, feeling that her image in Yan Gan's mind was gradually becoming outrageous: "I have it."

Yan nodded dryly: "I understand, it's still in the planning stage."

Yan Luoyue was very disappointed: "No, it really is!"

Just as Yan Luoyue reached into her storage bag to check how many spirit stones she had left, Yan Gan suddenly pointed at a roadside stall and smacked his lips, "Hiss, so expensive."

Hmm? What is it?

Yan Luoyue looked as she was told, and after clearing the items on the stall, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"A small bundle of grass costs one thousand spirit stones. It's really expensive."

But it's worth the price.

The stall owner sat upright with a stern face, with something that looked like a bundle of dry grass placed in front of him.

The base color of the "dry grass" is dark ink, but the whole body is covered with frost-like star spots, which looks very beautiful from a distance.

In Yan Luoyue's memory, this is a rare and precious spice.

It can be used as a reliever during elixir refining, or it can be tied into a small bundle and worn in a sachet. It can calm the mind and make the whole body fragrant. Even for cultivators above the Golden Core stage, it has a slight effect of nourishing the soul.

Although the items are rare, they have nothing to do with Yan Luoyue, a weapon refiner.

Just as Yan Luoyue patted Yan Gan's arm, signaling her brother to leave, a thought suddenly crossed her mind.

"Hey - wait, brother, I'll buy this."

Bie Yan Gan was just lamenting how expensive it was, but when he heard Yan Luoyue wanted to buy it, he touched the storage bag on his waist without saying a word.

"It's not cheap, does my sister have enough money?"

Hearing this, Sang Ji immediately started to take out money: "If you have enough money, I have more here."

Yan Luoyue held down the two handsome guys who donated generously, one in each hand.

"Don't worry, you know I made a lot of money!"

After carefully putting away the stick of "Eighteen Constellations Incense", the three of them continued to stroll along the market.

Not far away, there was a stall that was very busy.

Yan Luoyue glanced around and saw a familiar face in the crowd. It was the "Brother Tang" who had once been the king of the Li class.

Sang Ji and Yan Ganxian also noticed this opponent.

They had previously had a fight with Brother Tang and his gang, and were punished to write hundreds of pages of characters.

Brother Tang was held down by Mr. Dong and given ten solid strokes with the teaching stick. He was not even able to attend class the next day.

After this battle, Brother Tang's subordinates fled in all directions and started to curry favor with the new boss.

But not only was Brother Tang himself conquered, but there was often some resentment in his eyes when he looked at Yan Gan and the other two.

Now seeing this new rival also in the market, Sang Ji immediately gave him a look.

The three of them moved closer in hopes of joining in the fun, and when they got closer, they discovered that it was a formation mage who was explaining his "disposable portable teleportation formation."

The jade ball engraved with the formation was only the size of a dragon eye.

But as the stall owner threw it to the ground, the folded jade ball instantly expanded to a width of three feet.

The lines of the formation are complex and precise, and they emit a mysterious glow, which makes them look very advanced.

"Within fifty miles, completely random teleportation is achieved! I have been selling teleportation arrays for thirty years and have never cheated a single customer."

"Everyone, these three are customers who have bought my formation. If you want to know how the formation works, listen to their real experiences!"

Guest A made a generous speech: "The last time I went out to train, I happened to encounter two groups of people fighting over the ownership of a seventh-level monster. Hehe, I am not talented enough, so I went forward to grab the magic pill of the monster, displayed the teleportation formation and ran away..."

Onlookers: “Oh——”

It turns out that the teleportation array can be used in this way. It really inspires me!

Customer B patted his chest and said, "Compared to that, my luck is just average. Last time I entered the teleportation array, I was randomly teleported to the inner part of a family's treasure house. Fortunately, I bought the teleportation array, and I used another one to leave..."

Someone in the crowd shouted, "When you come out, fill your storage bag!"

Guest B smiled and said, "Hey, we have a tacit understanding, a tacit understanding."

As for the last customer, C, he looked very impatient and rubbed his hands together before speaking.

"I'm probably the one with the worst luck. Last time I played this teleportation array, I encountered both a lucky monster and some treasures. There were splashes of water and soft jade in front of me."

"I looked up, and guess what? It turned out that I accidentally fell into the girl's bathtub..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Gan and Sang Ji attacked as fast as lightning, covering Yan Luoyue's ears on the left and right.

With the corner of his eye, he saw Brother Tang’s face full of greed and envy, waving the Spirit Stone in his hand, trying to squeeze to the front row. Sang Ji couldn’t help but sneer:

"Let's go. If we stay any longer, we'll dirty our sister's ears."

They squeezed out of the crowd and finally took off the hands that were covering Yan Luoyue's ears. Yan Gan lifted his sister in his arms and looked into her eyes seriously.

"Don't let them talk too much, but that's not the right way. Sister, don't do that, understand?"

Sang Ji smiled lazily and said casually: "Our sister is so smart, how could she fall for this?"

"A level 7 monster can at least reach the late stage of foundation building. Just rely on the first guy. If he can get this big bargain, I will pinch your head."

Yan Gan reasoned with Yan Luoyue's little braid: "Not to mention the family treasury, even ordinary towns would make arrangements to prohibit this kind of wild teleportation array from running away at any time. He said it was ridiculous, but it can fool fools."

Sang Ji didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly a sly smile appeared on his face.

"As for the third scenario... humph, I'd like to have that person come to our big bathhouse."

The bathing pool of the black-nosed crocodile tribe is a pristine mud pit.

Crocodiles were half-submerged in warm mud bubbles, with at least ten pairs of eyes buried beneath the water's surface.

If that guest had fallen into the bathing pool of a male demon, perhaps he might have been able to make some excuses; but if he had fallen into the bathing pool of a female demon... there was no need to say anything, just wait for the sisters and aunts to come over and chew him up.

Yan Luoyue had just been at the teleportation array booth, and had witnessed the original marketing tactics of the immortal cultivation world.

Now, I am here with my two brothers, listening to a lot of tips on how to prevent fraud.

For a moment, Yan Luoyue felt deeply broadened.

It turns out that the various tricks in the world of cultivating immortals are no less than what she had experienced before.

After this incident, Yan Gan and Sang Ji were reminded that although Yan Luoyue was smart, she seemed to have never come into contact with such vicious people. They quickly gave her a science lesson.

The two of them spoke freely, discussing everything from fraud to honey traps.

When talking about fraud, Sang Ji also used the example of the first time he met Yan Luoyue, and explained in detail the "eight common methods of fraud", which made Yan Luoyue want to ask him many times, Brother Ji, are you doing this on purpose?

In a nutshell, the two brothers' protectiveness towards Yan Luoyue is obvious.

In other words, there is a National Anti-Fraud Center app in the world of immortal cultivation. If it weren't for the attitude of these two brothers, Yan Luoyue would have to install one on the spot.

When I finally finished this lesson on folklore, I smacked my lips and felt like I hadn't finished yet.

"As for more, I'll tell you when we meet again."

Yan Luoyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Sang Ji seemed to want to add something, she quickly pointed to a stall not far away: "Brother, I want that one!"

"Okay." Yan Gan lowered his head and kissed Yan Luoyue's little face, "Brother will carry you over."

Originally, Yan Luoyue just pointed at the most popular stall nearby.

As it turned out, when we got closer, she was actually quite interested.

This stall is filled with white porcelain bottles of uniform specifications, all of which are filled with elixirs.

Common elixirs are not uncommon.

But what makes this stall so popular and well-received by customers is, of course, that the product it sells is anti-aging pills.

The stall owner happily wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "There are only ten bottles left. Buy them now, fairies."

It was at this time that Yan Gan squeezed in among the group of beautiful girls.

Although everyone was shopping, they couldn't help but smile when they looked up and saw the handsome young boy holding his sister.

A female cultivator covered her mouth with her hand and jokingly said, "Is this young man also going to buy a bottle of anti-aging pill to try?"

Yan Gan waved his hands quickly: "No, it's my sister..."

When the female nuns heard this, they all followed suit and were all tickled with laughter.

"Hahahahahaha, little sister, it's too early for you to take this 'medicine'."

"You don't need to age. Your face is so tender that you can squeeze water out of it."

There was also a girl who liked Yan Luoyue because she was cute and fair-skinned, and she smiled and handed her some candies.

Yan Luoyue took the candy absentmindedly and said thank you, but her eyes were fixed on a small bottle with a blue label on the stall.

The small and exquisite porcelain vase was placed in the corner of the stall, and no one was paying attention to it, but in Yan Luoyue's eyes, it seemed to be shining.

There were three characters written in vivid black ink on the label: Age-enhancing Pill.

Yan Luoyue: “!!!”

Wait, does this mean...!

Yan Luoyue: To be honest, I have a bold idea now...

——————————

The first thing Yan Luoyue did after returning home was to put this "bold idea" into practice.

She opened the white porcelain bottle labeled "Aging Pill", and an ordinary brown pill followed her movements and rolled neatly from the mouth of the bottle into her palm.

Yan Luoyue stepped forward and took a light sniff, a faint medicinal scent filled her nose.

Her understanding of Yu Dan's medicine was far inferior to her knowledge of refining instruments, but she could roughly tell that this medicine would not be harmful if taken.

After calming himself down, Yan Luoyue calmed his breathing and swallowed the pill.

The change was immediate.

Almost at the moment when the effect of the medicine was digested, crackling sounds came from the joints all over Yan Luoyue's body.

At the same time, her body was also growing inch by inch. The clothes that originally fitted her became tight and small, and finally became brittle. From Yan Luoyue's horizontal field of vision, her body was growing all the way from just reaching the seat surface to a length that went over the windowsill.

The diamond-shaped mirror on the table reflected the girl's graceful figure. Yan Luoyue now looked like a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old.

According to the vendor selling medicine, the effects of the aging pills can be added together.

In other words, if Yan Luoyue swallowed two pills at the same time, she would be able to transform into a thirteen or fourteen-year-old big sister within the range of the drug's effect.

But this was not what Yan Luoyue paid attention to first.

Being able to see what you will look like in a dozen years is a rare opportunity. But Yan Luoyue's gaze even stayed in the mirror for a second, and his expectant eyes looked up directly at the blood bar floating above his head.

back……

Yan Luoyue's originally bright eyes dimmed in disappointment.

The health bar has changed, but it's still as long as before...

Sitting back on the bed depressedly, Yan Luoyue shook the quilt and wrapped herself up in it. She quickly figured out the reason.

The effect of the aging pill is not to "really make you grow ten years older in an instant", but to "make you grow ten years older".

This is not surprising. Anything related to time and space that does not contain the laws of hierarchy cannot be bought casually at a small stall like this.

If the aging pill could really allow people to travel through time, there would be no need for the profession of assassin.

"——Who is not pleasing to your eyes? Throw an aging pill into his teacup.

There is one aging pill that can't solve the problem. If there is, then there are two."

Amused by his own imagination, Yan Luoyue patted his face and readjusted his mindset.

Even though the aging pill cannot really increase her health bar, it is still very useful to Yan Luoyue at the moment.

For example, after taking the aging pill, Yan Luoyue needs to put on the previously refined cloak that conceals his breath, and then he can leave Sang Ji and Yan Gan and travel alone.

In addition, this aging pill also helps Luo Yue expand his thinking.

For example...

Even though the Aging Pill can make Yan Luoyue age older, if she can also reduce the enemy's health at the same rate as her own, then it would be a different approach to the same goal!

Speaking of blood volume synchronization...

Yan Luoyue's eyes changed slightly, and he reached into the storage bag with his claws very honestly.

Did she buy a few pairs of heart stones before?

Let Yan Luoyue think about how she should refine this material so as to skip the complicated steps of the concentric stone contract, and at the same time avoid one person dying and the other being dragged to the underworld together.

Well, first let her identify the raw materials of the stone...

————————————

The next morning, Yan Luoyue arrived at the hall and went to find Mr. Jiang.

Yan Luoyue knew that Jiang Tingbai had the habit of practicing sword in the martial arts field in the hall early in the morning, so she urged Yan Gan to go out early.

She put her schoolbag on her seat, then ran out and blocked Jiang Tingbai in the martial arts arena.

Jiang Tingbai sensed Yan Luoyue's approach in advance, and sheathed his sword in advance. With a flick of his sleeves, he dispersed the swords in the air. When Yan Luoyue arrived at the entrance of the martial arts arena, he saw Mr. Jiang looking at him leisurely.

"gentlemen!"

Jiang Tingbai smiled gently: "Is there anything else you need my help with? Don't worry, take a deep breath first."

Yan Luoyue widened her eyes and gave Jiang Tingbai a look of feigned anger: "Sir, are you teasing me? I came to see you for good things!"

Jiang Tingbai seemed to be thinking about something, and he said "Oh" for a long time: "That's my inconsiderateness. Thank you for your advice."

This is purely a joke, Yan Luoyue will not argue about it.

She reached into the storage bag at her waist and took out a box with her two biscuit-like hands.

The box was quite large and directly covered Yan Luoyue's small bun. It was a bit difficult for her current body size to hold it steady. Yan Luoyue had to use her skills to hold it steady.

Jiang Tingbai's tone was a little surprised, but he still took the box immediately: "Mine?"

The box that Yan Luoyue had to hold with both arms, he easily held with one hand.

As soon as the lid of the box was opened, the crystal-clear light instantly illuminated Jiang Tingbai's warm and handsome face.

Yan Luoyue looked at Mr. Jiang expectantly. It was the first time she saw such a distinct expression of confusion on this man's face.

Jiang Tingbai shook his head and laughed. For a moment, he simply couldn't think of what to say: "You... Hey, what are you and I doing?"

The box contained nothing else but five hundred neatly stacked low-grade spirit stones.

At this moment, Jiang Tingbai was amused and wanted to laugh, but he also wanted to return the box directly to Yan Luoyue. However, he had to take into account that she was so small and it was difficult for her to hold the box. He was really in a very sweet dilemma.

Yan Luoyue said seriously: "Since I came in, the master has been helping me a lot. I have always been grateful for your care, and I want to repay you now."

"The batch of storage bags that I told you about before has been sold. These spirit stones are your brushstrokes."

It would have been fine if she didn't mention the lubricant. But as soon as she mentioned the lubricant, Jiang Tingbai thought of the five words "Canglang Sect, ahhh~" and couldn't help laughing.

"You are my child, how can I not write a few words for you? Forget about moistening the pen."

Jiang Tingbai lifted his robe, half-knelt down, and whispered to Yan Luoyue in advance: "Take it well", and then stuffed the box safely into Yan Luoyue's arms.

His attitude was gentle yet resolute.

"Good boy, I understand your heart. If you need any words in the future, you can tell me. There is one thing, don't ever..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Tingbai shook his head and couldn't help but smile again.

The child is such a good child.

But what is this?

Realizing Mr. Jiang's insistence, Yan Luoyue took back the box.

She was very disappointed. After all, given Jiang Tingbai's temperament and character, he was unwilling to accept any reward, and Yan Luoyue had expected that.

So, she also prepared a backup plan.

"Then, sir, at least accept this storage bag."

Yan Luoyue searched in her arms and took out a small and cute storage bag and handed it to Jiang Tingbai.

There was a Q-version wolf head printed on the storage bag, and the five words "Canglang Sect, Aoao~" written by Jiang Tingbai himself. It was the same model as the previous order for Canglang Sect, which was intercepted by Yan Luoyue himself.

Jiang Tingbai's eyes reflected a touch of warmth, like ripples in a quiet lake. His temperament was usually like the breeze and the bright moon, but now his gentle smile was like the spring breeze and the bright moon.

"good."

Jiang Tingbai took the storage bag with her slender white fingers and looked at the gift seriously, not being perfunctory at all because Yan Luoyue was a child.

When his eyes fell on the words printed on the storage bag, Jiang Tingbai was slightly stunned.

The Julian Sword could be imprinted, he originally thought...

When Yan Luoyue realized the shock of this moment, Jiang Tingbai smiled again.

Unlike before, his smile this time contained some pride, some appreciation, and some joy for Yan Luoyue.

"Your talent for refining weapons... is beyond my expectations."

Yan Luoyue blinked: "Hey, sir, you also know how to refine weapons?"

Jiang Tingbai shook his head: "I don't know how to refine weapons."

Yan Luoyue thought to herself, Huh, I knew it.

If Mr. Jiang knew how to refine instruments, he wouldn't be so poor.

Seeing the little girl happily arranging herself in her mind, Jiang Tingbai gently patted Yan Luoyue's head.

"I don't know how to forge weapons, and you don't know how to use swords, but we worked together and made a very beautiful work - please accept your gift, sir. It's getting late, so go back to class."

As long as he is willing to accept it, it will be fine.

Yan Luoyue nodded happily, and ran away with light steps like a nimble little deer.

Jiang Tingbai still maintained the half-squatting position until he watched Yan Luoyue leave, then he stood up again.

He casually probed into the storage bag with his spiritual energy and suddenly found something in the storage bag.

It was a straw handicraft. It was ordinary, yet extraordinary.

What makes it extraordinary is its material - it is made of "Eighteen Constellations Incense". Although the handicraft is a bit larger than a copper coin, if it is put on the market, this amount can be sold for at least one thousand spirit stones.

The ordinary thing is that Yan Luoyue made up something exaggerated.

She simply made a lifelike little turtle in her own image, and that was all.

Originally, Yan Luoyue considered that Mr. Jiang was a swordsman, and thought about whether he should make a small sword.

But she thought again, it didn't seem right to have a sword braided on the tassel.

So she thought about it and decided to make up an image of herself!

As an instrument maker, Yan Luoyue's handicraft skills are naturally not bad, and the object she chose to weave was naturally a coincidence.

So, she couldn't have expected that Jiang Tingbai would fall into deep thought over her gift.

A few seconds later, Jiang Tingbai took out the third piece of work from his storage bag. It had four legs, a questionable appearance, and was still half-finished.

Comparing the two pieces of weaving together, Jiang Tingbai muttered to himself in frustration:

“Even children can weave better than me…”

———————————

Not long after, Yan Luoyue received a message from the Canglang Sect, stating that the Yijian Sect had taken the initiative first and hoped to establish contact with the young master.

With Yan Luoyue's strength, it is conceivable that his career will grow bigger and bigger.

Since the order was delivered to her door, she had a reason to refuse it.

After connecting to the communication stone of Yijianmen, Yan Luoyue learned that Yijianmen also wanted to order one thousand storage bags.

However, unlike the Canglang Sect, the wealthy Yijian Sect even wanted to reduce the space of the storage bag.

In other words, they assume the bag is a standard size.

Standard packaging is good. One standard packaging can be sold for at least ten spirit stones.

If this student negotiates, he can at least earn 20,000 yuan.

Yan Luoyue thought and drew a circle on the paper: "Okay, do you have any special requests?"

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but the other person's reply was a little nervous:

"We also need to write on our storage bags. It doesn't matter what you write on them, but they must be made by the same person as the ones you made for the Canglang Sect."

The smile on Yan Luoyue's face slowly faded.

This request seems a bit strange.

"…What are you thinking?"

"It is this thought that leads to this request."

The breathing coming from the communication stone became a little heavier, and the person in charge of Yijianmen suddenly thought of another possibility.

"Wait, is it that the calligraphy of that person is hard to come by? Then, then could you please tell me who wrote the handwriting on the storage bag?"

Yan Luoyue: “…”

Putting the traces together and thinking about what Mr. Jiang said, "I don't know how to refine weapons, and you don't know how to use swords," Yan Luoyue suddenly understood everything.

OK, now she knew where the big order came from.

Since it concerns Jiang Tingbai, Yan Luoyue cannot agree until he nods in agreement.

and……

Yan Luoyue responded politely, disconnected the communication stone, and then covered her face with one hand in embarrassment.

Ahhh, it turns out that she didn’t use enough of Mr. Jiang’s pen before!
