Chapter 30: Taking Stock of Harvest
Xiao Chujing only said that he accidentally broke into the cave of a powerful person and got a good opportunity.
Ye Xiaoman got a lot of benefits. In order to match Xiao Chujing's words, she just played the victim and said that she was scared after being captured by the Bat Man. Her mind was confused and she didn't remember any key information.
Therefore, both of them avoided the important issues.
His fellow disciples did not suspect anything and were deeply moved.
"We received a tip-off that many people witnessed the Saint of Buzhoutian taking the inheritance from the Supreme God and leaving."
"It seems that the Buzhoutian God Clan is about to rise again, and some people are already preparing to curry their favor."
"As the first group to enter the secret realm, the Qixia Sect also gained a lot of good things."
"The monks in the northern border found a piece of excellent spiritual grass and made a fortune."
"Those who formed groups to hunt monsters also made a fortune."
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go quickly."
The senior brothers and sisters escorted Ye Xiaoman out of the secret realm and ran to pick up the bargain without looking back.
The rented spirit horse was still tied at the dock, eating grass leisurely.
Ye Xiaoman and Xiao Chujing mounted their horses and found an inn in the suburbs to rest.
After eating, washing, changing into new robes, he took a good nap.
Ye Xiaoman calculated the time and found that she had wasted a lot of time in the secret realm. There were only three days left before she could rush to Yongzhou City to get the antidote on the 25th.
She hurried to urge Xiao Chujing.
Xiao Chujing also felt the urgency of time, "Let's complete the sect mission first, and then set off immediately."
The two of them acted separately. Ye Xiaoman spent half a day purchasing the Xifeng Lingtu, while Xiao Chujing went to Qingsonggang to complete his task of killing the Linghu Beast.
The two met again, and Ye Xiaoman counted the time on her fingers: "There are only two and a half days left now."
Xiao Chujing took out a map and said, "It's quite a distance from Simao City to Yongzhou City. We need to change to a faster means of transportation."
Ye Xiaoman touched the spirit horse they rented and asked, "Is it too late to ride the spirit horse?"
"It's too late," Xiao Chujing said, "We need to switch to a faster flying horse."
Flying horse, as the name suggests, is a spiritual horse with wings that can fly in the sky.
The price is naturally several times more expensive than that of a spirit horse that can only run on the ground.
This was Ye Xiaoman's first time venturing into the martial world, and she knew nothing about these things, so she followed Xiao Chujing to learn.
Xiao Chujing took Ye Xiaoman to the horse market in the city.
There are many horse shops in the horse market. These horse shops are nationwide chain brands with branches in various places. Monks can rent horses here and return them anytime and anywhere.
The spiritual horse that Xiao Chu was bidding to rent came from a chain horse dealership called "Hongtu Wanli".
You need to return the spirit horse first before you can rent a higher-grade flying horse.
The shop was bustling with people, all of them were monks who came to rent horses.
The shopkeeper who was in charge of receiving them was tapping his abacus.
"Two spirit horses, rented for seven days, for a total of 2,000 spirit coins."
"The shopkeeper miscalculated the price," Xiao Chujing said calmly, "The daily rental for a horse is 100 spirit coins, so it should be 1,400 spirit coins."
The shopkeeper said impatiently, "I rented my horse to you for a few days. Look at how dry its coat is and how much thinner it is. It's obvious you haven't been feeding it well."
"The extra 600 spirit coins will be used as nutrition for the horses and as compensation for our store."
Ye Xiaoman was shocked. Is it true that big stores bully their customers in the world of immortal cultivation?
Several monks beside her started arguing with the waiter.
"Your stirrups were broken when I rented them. How can you ask me to compensate you?"
"Your horse is not healthy to begin with, why should I pay for its medical treatment?"
"I've been your customer for many years. After you changed the owner, you've been really cheating me."
The waiter was very arrogant, "If you want to rent, rent it. If not, get out."
"If you leave our house, you won't be able to rent such a cheap horse."
Xiao Chujing was too lazy to argue and just took out the money.
While he was paying, Ye Xiaoman walked around the store curiously.
When I first entered the world of immortal cultivation, I was interested in everything.
As she walked, she unknowingly arrived at the VIP area of the store.
Large horse racing companies not only rent out horses, but also sell flying instruments.
It can be understood as a modern large car dealership that, in addition to renting motorcycles, also sells cars, including luxury sports cars.
Ye Xiaoman saw the same flying boat as her senior brother and walked over to take a look.
The waiter in charge of sales saw that Ye Xiaoman was dressed simply and didn't bother to pay attention to her. He then stood by the counter, eating melon seeds and chatting.
Only a little girl with big eyes ran up to greet them enthusiastically.
"Hello, sir. I'm Erxi. What kind of aircraft are you interested in?"
Ye Xiaoman: "I want to see the flying boat."
"Okay, this way please."
The other waiters were speaking in a sarcastic tone.
"Erxi, I tell you to stop working so hard. A cultivator who can afford a flying boat wouldn't be so poor as to rent a horse."
"Don't worry about her. Her family is poor. She sees anyone coming over and dreams of selling them a flying magical device to improve their family's life."
"Are magical instruments so easy to sell? Our shopkeeper was promoted to the head of this store just because he sold a flying boat three years ago."
Ye Xiaoman is very thick-skinned. While others may be jealous of her, she happily takes the test drive.
It's a luxury car worth millions, it's nice to touch it.
The little girl also saw that Ye Xiaoman couldn't afford it, but she still explained it to Ye Xiaoman seriously.
The two were of similar age and got along well. She also gave Ye Xiaoman some small gifts for VIP test drive users.
"When I have money, I will buy a car from you." Before leaving the VIP area, Ye Xiaoman patted Erxi's shoulder and boasted shamelessly.
Outside, Xiao Chujing had already picked out the flying horse to rent.
The shopkeeper said, "The rent is 1,000 spirit coins a day, and the deposit for two horses is 20,000 spirit coins."
Xiao Chujing took out his purse and found that he didn't have enough money.
"Please keep the horses for me."
Xiao Chujing waved Ye Xiaoman over and said to her, "I'm going to the Immortal Ruins to sell some things."
He wanted Ye Xiaoman to wait for him at the horse farm, but Ye Xiaoman planned to go with him.
She got hundreds of thousand-year-old ginseng, a large pile of gold, and several bags of worn-out magic weapons in the secret realm. She wanted to see how much money she had earned on this trip.
Xiao Chujing is a genius in alchemy. When he is short of money, he sells pills to make money. Although he doesn't show off his wealth, he is actually very rich.
This time when he went to the black market, he did not go to the Medicine Pavilion, but to the Treasure Pavilion which purchased both medicines and magic weapons.
He casually took a few bottles of pills and a magic weapon, and got 1 million spirit coins from the shopkeeper.
Ye Xiaoman's saliva almost flowed down. When did I become so rich?
Xiao Chujing saw through her thoughts and rubbed her head. "Senior Brother said that he would give you half of the treasures he got. He didn't sell the good ones and kept them for you."
He added pointedly, "When the dust settles, we'll have a good chat."
Ye Xiaoman's attention was not on this for the time being. She said to the shopkeeper nervously, "I also have something I want to sell."
