Chapter 39: Digging the Ground
The digging pig moved its nose and quickly locked the position. A flash of earth-yellow attribute energy appeared on its arched mouth. It dug out the mushroom in one, two, and three strokes and was eating it with a delicious smack.
To be fair, the seller did not bury the mushrooms shallowly, and he also crushed a few mushrooms and scattered them everywhere in an attempt to interfere with the digging pigs, but the little pigs performed well and every mushroom was successfully found.
Now Qiao Xi was really tempted. Seeing this, the seller decided to add fuel to the fire. Maybe the deal would be done.
"What are you still hesitating about, sir? Are you worried that the little pigs will eat the mushrooms?" He took out a few things that looked like muzzles.
"This is a specially customized mushroom container, a small space container. As long as it senses the energy fluctuations of the little pigs and is stimulated by the energy, it will quickly collect the mushrooms it digs out. You don't have to worry about the collection problem."
Oh, so thoughtful! Now, Josh's last concern has been solved.
"How many federal points does one cost?" Decision made, buy a few and see.
"Dear guest, six thousand for one and ten thousand for two." Seeing that Qiao Xi was convinced, he also smiled happily.
"So expensive?" Qiao Xi frowned slightly. This was much more expensive than the jumping lamb in front.
As soon as he saw Qiao Xi's face, the seller knew, "Don't think it's too expensive, customer. Look at our digging pigs. Each one is smart, cute and lively. After the low-level magic beasts cross the space barrier, they need to take in a lot of attribute energy to replenish their bodies in order to maintain such a good condition. This is why these pigs are a little expensive.
I don't do one-time business. I can guarantee that every one of these mysterious creatures I sell is healthy. I can also give you ten muzzles to show my sincerity."
Indeed, there are many people selling secret creatures, but Josh has not found a second store that can keep the goods in this condition after walking around this street.
Since I'm going to buy it, I might as well buy a good one to avoid a lot of trouble when I go back. Josh made the decision quickly.
"I want three little pigs, one male and two females. By the way, you have never sucked a pig's balls, have you?" Josh asked the boss with a suspicious look in his eyes.
"Ah? No, how is that possible?" The seller was shocked. How could they do this?
"Hehe, it's good that there's no animal testicles, it's good that there's no animal testicles." Qiao Xi said it too quickly. After all, in his previous life, there were many merchants who monopolized the market and raised the prices of animal testicles in the name of maintaining the purity of bloodline.
This kind of thing should not have happened in this alien world before. Qiao Xi felt a little guilty. If the boss heard what she said, sterilization would not be allowed in the future.
"Three Little Pigs, 15,000, huh, boss?" Josh took out his card and asked.
"Sure, sure. I'm not the kind of person who haggles over every penny." The boss was generous and sold three pigs in one go, so fifteen thousand is fine.
"Hey, boss, can you deliver the pigs to your door?" Qiao Xi suddenly realized that he seemed unable to take these piglets back.
"Okay, that's not a problem, just leave an address."
After Qiao Xi selected the three little pigs she wanted, she added the boss's contact number, paid half of the deposit, sent the location of the farm, and would pay him the rest of the money after the goods were delivered.
While buying the unexpected piglets, Josh also did not give up his plan to look for other little monsters.
She continued to wander down the street.
Josh was a little annoyed when he saw the stall owner selling jumping lambs arguing with passers-by again.
Since you plan to ship these little things here to sell, you should be well prepared. It's impossible to keep them half-dead and then bundle them for sale here.
"Who said my jumping lamb is about to die? Bullshit. If you keep talking nonsense, I will cause trouble for you!" This is the beginning of his rogue behavior.
Seeing that he didn't seem to be doing this business seriously, Josh became even more disgusted with him.
As it was getting late, the man became more and more impatient and even started to think about killing the sheep and selling the meat.
Josh and the onlookers nearby were stunned by his confusing operation. No matter how hard it was to sell, the jumping lamb was only the size of a big dog. It was the spring shearing season and its body was full of fur. How much could it sell for?
Seeing this group of lambs huddled together and shivering, some of them didn't even move, Qiao Xi was worried that they might be in danger, so he turned around and left.
Suddenly, there was a loud eagle cry in the sky, and several giant birds swooped down from the sky. The sheep dealer's face changed drastically, and he turned around and ran to the side of the alley. A sturdy blind mole with sharp claws quickly dug out a tunnel and was about to escape with the sheep dealer.
A huge arrow was shot from a distance and instantly pierced through a man and a beast. It happened almost instantly and the onlookers scattered in a hurry, fearing that something bad would happen.
Qiao Xi was swept away by the crowd and ran far away. She couldn't help but regret why she didn't bring the big-tailed yak with her. This scene was so scary.
The giant eagle in the sky landed on the ground, and several people came down. They put the sheep dealer's body into a body bag and flew away again, leaving two people behind, apparently to check on the jumping lamb.
The curiosity of the people was endless. Some brave ones came over to take a look and came back to tell others: "It's okay, they are pioneers from the expedition group. Look at their clothes, they are okay."
All of a sudden, the onlookers gathered around again. Chaoyang City was full of pioneers. What was there to be afraid of when they were performing their duties? Let's go up and listen to what was going on.
There were too many people eating onlookers, and Qiao Xi couldn't squeeze out even if she wanted to. She was pushed forward by the aunt behind her, "Come on, go, go and see the excitement. This kind of excitement doesn't happen often. Don't be in a hurry to go out, little girl, go and take a look."
Qiao Xi was annoyed. She didn't want to join in the fun!
After some curious people made some inquiries, it turned out that the two expedition soldiers, for some unknown reason, actually told everyone the situation.
It turns out that this sheep dealer is not a legitimate secret realm merchant, but a thief wandering around the entrances of various secret realms.
This time their expedition team captured a group of high-quality jumping lambs. There were so many of them that they transported them back in batches. Unexpectedly, one of the animal carts was robbed by him and his companions.
They thought they had robbed a small private team, and they were not in a hurry to sell the sheep after they got them back, nor did they take good care of the lambs. They only rushed to take action today when they realized something was wrong.
But he was still too greedy. If he had just sold the intermediate jumping lamb and ran away, he might have been able to escape. Unfortunately, his greed backfired.
After saying so much, the soldier changed the subject: "Well, friends, are there any farmers here who are willing to raise these lambs?"
Everyone suddenly realized that all these words were just to pave the way for this!
Thanks to those babies who vote for me every day. I am very grateful to you. Seeing that someone is reading, I am more motivated to write. Love you!
