Chapter 200 Shopping
the next day
As expected, the fifth elder burst into laughter when he saw the collapsed yard.
Facing the humble Nan Xiao, he said with a half-smile, "What's the matter? This house can't accommodate you anymore? Do you want to move to a bigger yard? Are you starting to work on it yourself?"
Nan Xiao shrank his body and dared not speak.
The smiling Fifth Elder is more terrifying than the angry Fifth Elder.
Seeing that the Fifth Elder didn't say anything, Nan Xiao became even more frightened.
I struggled mentally for a few seconds.
Nan Xiao slid down and knelt in front of the fifth elder, admitting his mistake with a very good attitude.
"Elder, I was wrong. This was all an accident. I will never dare to do it again."
"Elder, please trust me once more. I will accept any punishment you may have."
"Disciple promises there won't be a next time."
The Fifth Elder's beard was shaking with anger, but he was reluctant to punish her. If she wasn't punished, then if she dared to demolish her compound today, she should be demolishing the sect tomorrow.
The older you get, the braver you become.
The Fifth Elder sighed inwardly, but ultimately couldn't bear to punish her. With a stern face, he said coldly, "I'll give you three days. If you can't build the yard, you'll be put in solitary confinement for a month and have to copy the sect rules a hundred times."
Nan Xiao's eyes lit up.
The Fifth Elder is indeed tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
She hurriedly assured, "Got it. I promise to complete the task."
How much time does it take to build a small yard? As long as you buy all the raw materials and use a few tricks, it can be done.
"Don't smile so happily. If it's not fixed, you will still be punished."
After the fifth elder finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Nan Xiao waved towards his back and said, "Don't worry, Elder. I will complete the task."
After the five elders walked away, Nan Xiao stood up from the ground, pulled out the two evil spirits that had made the mistake, and scolded them thoroughly.
"From now on, if anyone disobeys, don't follow me."
"There won't be a next time, you hear me?"
Nan Xiao had a cold face, and looked unusually serious.
Xiaoya climbed up her wrist miserably and stayed in her old position obediently.
With a hint of flattery: "Xiaoxiao, I was wrong, don't be angry."
The little stone lay alone on the ground, feeling wronged.
Nan Xiao didn't bother to care about it and just lay down if he wanted to.
Before leaving, he only left one sentence: "Don't steal my power again. If I find out again, I will dissolve you."
Little Stone felt even more aggrieved, but he was very hungry.
To stop it from stealing food, you should feed it some.
······
Nan Xiao came down the mountain and immediately bought all the materials needed for the courtyard construction. He then went to Linglong Pavilion to inquire about the newly arrived spiritual plants and materials for alchemy and refining.
When the shopkeeper saw that it was Nan Xiao, he greeted her warmly.
The result of this sect competition has spread, and the name of Xiaoyao Sect has also spread. Its status has also risen rapidly, and it has jumped directly from a second-rate sect to being on par with the three major sects. It is now referred to as the four major sects.
Linglong Pavilion is able to open branches in various towns all year round, so naturally, the people there are all capable.
The shopkeeper also found out the identities of Nan Xiao and his companions when they came for the first time.
Now that Nan Xiao came again, he was naturally more enthusiastic.
"I wonder what you need?"
Nan Xiao's hand unconsciously rested on Xiaoya's leaves. She remembered what Xiaoya said, that it would rather sleep than absorb her power. In the end, she still felt more guilty.
"Do you have any spiritual fluid that plant-type spirits can use?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "You have come at the perfect time, fellow Daoist. We didn't have any before, but a few bottles of spiritual liquid arrived a few days ago. Because it is rare, the price is a bit high."
Nan Xiao asked the price: "How much?"
The shopkeeper stretched out his palm and made the number one.
"one thousand?"
The shopkeeper shook his head.
"Ten thousand?"
The shopkeeper shook his head again.
He smiled and said, "It's one hundred thousand spirit stones."
Nan Xiao: “…”
Sorry, can't afford it.
Xiaoya, why don’t you just starve?
The shopkeeper smiled again and said, "However, since you are a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, I can give you a 50% discount. Do you want it?"
Nan Xiao thought about it and decided to spend some of the spirit stones he had earned in the Tianjian Sect.
"Let's take a look at the goods first?"
If it’s worth it, buy it; if it’s not, go hungry.
Money should be spent wisely.
To put it bluntly, it means being stingy.
The shopkeeper said, "Okay, fellow Taoist, please wait here for a moment."
Nan Xiao found a chair and sat down. Although there was no auction at Linglong Pavilion during this period, there were still a lot of people coming in.
After a while, the shopkeeper came over with two waiters.
The waiter placed the box on the table and opened it attentively.
Each box only contained two fist-sized bottles of spiritual fluid.
Nan Xiao casually picked up a bottle of spiritual liquid. As soon as he opened the lid, a fragrance instantly spread out.
Not to mention Xiaoya was addicted to it, even Nan Xiao felt happy when he smelled it.
This bottle looks even better than the one her master gave her.
Nan Xiao immediately decided: "I want all of these."
"Okay, I'll pack it up for you first. Is there anything else you want?"
Nan Xiao asked, "I also want to see the materials used for refining the weapon."
The shopkeeper quickly said, "Yes, please come this way."
Linglong Pavilion is indeed a century-old store, with many and complete items inside.
They also give discounts from time to time. Nan Xiao originally didn't plan to buy much.
After seeing the prices and products, I ended up spending quite a bit.
The shopkeeper packed up everything Nan Xiao wanted and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, this is 960,000 spirit stones in total. I'll round off the price for you and charge you 950,000."
Nan Xiao: “…”
When I bought them separately, they seemed fine, but how come they cost so much when put together?
This trip, plus the materials for building the yard, cost her over one million yuan.
Nan Xiao felt a little distressed, but still paid the money obediently.
At worst, next time I see Gu An and the others, I’ll just give them more. He’s rich.
······
Gu An, who was far away in the Tianjian Sect, sneezed several times in succession.
Why do I feel a chill on my back?
·······
Nan Xiao returned to Xiaoyao Sect and bribed a few young disciples with elixirs to help build the yard.
It took nearly two days to rebuild the yard.
Nan Xiao invited the fifth elder over and asked him to check the construction results.
"Fifth Elder, what do you think?"
Looking at Nan Xiao who was smiling flatteringly, the Fifth Elder still kept a stern face and tried to look more serious.
"As long as it can be built, it's fine. It's you who will live there, not me. So whatever you say is fine is fine."
Nan Xiao: “…”
That’s right. It’s her own place anyway, so why not build it better and more to her liking?
She looked at the completed courtyard. Now that it had been demolished and rebuilt, the Fifth Elder would probably really kill her.
Damn, I didn't think of that.
The smile doesn't disappear, it just shifts.
The fifth elder watched the little girl go from happy to confused, to sudden realization, to regret, etc. His mood instantly became much happier.
"Alright, forget it this time, don't do it again."
The smile on Nan Xiao's face disappeared, and she answered weakly, "Yes."
