Chapter 245: Rejecting the Invitation and Exploring the Artifact
Ye Yuxi was unhappy.
What is a child, what is playing?
If it weren't for her good temper, this monk in front of her would have been in trouble for a while.
Yuan Qingzhou and Mo Wensheng were even more unhappy.
If it weren't for Xixi, they wouldn't have come here.
"No need." Yuan Qingzhou said coldly.
Seeing the two of them like this, the monk's smile disappeared.
"I called you two out of kindness. There is a lot of miasma in the swamp, and there are many insects and ants, as well as other unknown dangers. Not to mention that some terrains are impossible to walk without tools. You are seeking death by bringing a child into the swamp."
Mo Wensheng said: "What happens to us has nothing to do with you."
“Okay, okay!”
The monk said three good words and was about to leave, but was stopped by a handsome monk.
"Chen Sui, if you have something to say, please talk nicely. Why are you being so rude?"
Chen Sui bowed and said, "Master, they are the ones who don't know what's good for them."
The handsome monk looked at the three people, his eyes fell on Ye Yuxi: "I am Jia Lingfu. Chen Sui's words may not be pleasant to hear, but he means well. The dangers in the swamp are not easy to deal with even if a Divine Transformation monk comes."
"If you apologize, I'll allow you to join. If you're worried about the child, you can bring him with you."
Chen Sui said anxiously: "How can this be possible——"
Jia Lingfu raised his hand: "No need to say more, righteous monks should help each other."
If Ye Yuxi had been able to detect the good intentions, she would have believed it.
Of course she didn't sense any malice.
But she felt something was wrong.
Ye Yuxi didn’t know what was wrong, but Yuan Qingzhou and Mo Wensheng knew it.
They both refused at the same time: "No need."
They did not forcefully reject Jia Lingfu, as the other party was at the early Nascent Soul stage.
It's hard to fight.
Besides, I don’t know if there are any other masters.
"How can you be so ungrateful!"
Seeing that Chen Sui was about to take action, many cultivators looked over.
"Chen Sui, forget it. I won't force you to do anything." Jia Lingfu looked at Ye Yuxi deeply. "If you have any difficulties, you can come to me."
At this glance, Ye Yuxi sensed hidden malice.
Jia Lingfu and his companion returned to a huge ship, and the monks on the ship looked at Yuan Qingzhou with unfriendly eyes.
Yuan Qingzhou held Ye Yuxi in his arms, and said from a distance, "If someone is too kind to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. What treasure? Why don't I see so many monks?"
Mo Wensheng said: "The Tianjian Sect has not received any news, and there is no news of any treasures in Yinjiang City. Forget it, let's just stay away from them."
Ye Yuxi nodded, "Senior Brother Mo, Zhou Zhou, there is a swamp exploration artifact over there, let's go over and take a look."
She had noticed it a long time ago. After all, there were quite a few cultivators surrounding her. If Chen Sui and the others hadn't come to disturb her, Ye Yuxi would have gone to see it long ago.
The structure of the artifact is very simple, just two long wooden boards with magic circles carved on them.
Ye Yuxi saw clearly that it was just a simple floating formation, a light body formation, and a moving formation.
With just a little bit of spiritual power, one can move easily and quickly on water, mud, and even quicksand.
"This monk is so smart."
Ye Yuxi sighed, it would be better if a protective formation was added. Although most cultivators have defensive magic weapons, this artifact that is similar to a skateboard is made of ordinary wood and is easy to break.
There were many monks gathered around to buy, and no one noticed the comments of Ye Yuxi, a little kid.
The seller was a short female cultivator.
He was bargaining skillfully with the monks.
“I said, a set is only one hundred spirit stones, and there are many things in the swamp. With this, you don’t have to worry about getting trapped in Zhaoze. You can just get some spirit plants and spirit stones and come back.”
"Cheap? No, not a single spirit stone can be less. This is already the cost price."
"You mean Senior Jia's Spirit Boat? Then go ahead. Mine really can't compare."
"It's not a divine weapon? Fellow Daoist, I'm just saying, no cultivator is as honest as you."
…
The female cultivator was at the initial stage of the Golden Core stage, and Ye Yuxi watched with great interest.
"Xixi, should we buy it?" Yuan Qingzhou didn't understand, but Ye Yuxi did.
Before Ye Yuxi could say anything, she saw three aggressive male cultivators coming over, holding a few broken wooden boards and throwing them in front of the female cultivator.
"What artifact? My brother used your artifact and died in it. You must give us an explanation today."
Among the three people, two are Jindan cultivators and one is in the great perfection of foundation building.
There is a lot of evil energy on his body.
The surrounding monks dispersed to see how the nuns would respond.
The monks hid far away, but Ye Yuxi and the other two did not move, and instead became the closest ones.
The female cultivator put away her enthusiastic attitude of greeting customers and said calmly, "This is a tool for moving in the swamp, not a defensive weapon. If you want to save your life in a dangerous swamp with only 100 spirit stones, you are dreaming."
"you--"
The three monks were furious and rushed towards the female monk with their weapons drawn.
The female cultivator did not move. When the three of them arrived in front of the stall, they seemed to have hit some barrier and were bounced back by the reaction force and fell to the ground.
A big man even fell down next to Ye Yuxi.
It's a formation.
The female cultivator sneered: "Forget it."
The three monks who were looking for trouble were slightly injured. They climbed up and said, "Bitch, don't think you are protected by the formation. We will stay here and see how you do your business."
One of the monks said, "As long as you compensate us 10,000 spirit stones, this matter will be forgotten."
Ye Yuxi: Ten thousand spirit stones?
Why don't you go and rob it?
No, they are here to steal things.
The female cultivator sneered and immediately called out to the surrounding cultivators: "If anyone can help me drive them away, please send me a swamp map. It will mark where there are monsters and dangers."
Ye Yuxi's eyes lit up. She could do it!
The other monks were obviously tempted, but they did not move.
"Hmph, we are from the Jia family, who among you dares to move?" one of the monks said arrogantly.
Ye Yuxi understood that he was in cahoots with that annoying Jia Lingfu.
The monk who was about to move obviously stopped moving.
The female cultivator took two deep breaths and said, "Okay, I'll go."
The nun began to pack her things.
"I'm afraid Miss Guan can't leave. You haven't given any instructions yet."
Ye Yuxi turned her head and saw Jia Lingfu.
Jia Lingfu's eyes inadvertently swept over Ye Yuxi, and then he looked at the female cultivator named Guan with a calm expression.
The female cultivator simply gave up packing her things and sat down on the spot.
"Don't you just want the monks to board your ship? Can't I just not sell it?"
Jia Lingfu said calmly: "Miss Guan, I, Jia Lingfu, have a clear conscience."
Many monks who followed agreed.
"Senior Jia was kind enough to take us to the swamp. How could he bully a small person like you?"
"Your magic weapon, no, it's garbage and caused people to lose their lives. Shouldn't you pay for it?"
"I advise you to pay the compensation obediently and never cheat anyone again."
…
The female cultivator named Guan was so angry that her face turned blue.
Jia Lingfu looked at Ye Yuxi and asked, "Little girl, what do you say?"
"What this sister sells is a tool for walking, not a life-saving charm."
Ye Yuxi's voice was childish, but she answered without any hesitation.
