An NPC was hawking his wares on the street, with several white and red Daruma dolls swaying behind him, their large bellies bobbing back and forth like giant porcelain dolls.
"So high..."
A Bodhidharma stood there, more than twice the height of Qiu Shui, and she couldn't even touch the Bodhidharma's chin when she looked up.
"This Bodhidharma is huge, how much is it?"
Autumn Water asked.
"Big? All Bodhidharma are the same size. They're just higher star ratings. Open your backpack and you'll see they're the same size."
The NPC realized what was happening.
"You want to buy Dharma statues? How many? There's a discount for buying more!"
“I have two coupons.”
Qiu Shui took out two coupons from the basket.
"Here, take these two. These two Daruma are very familiar and are perfect for leveling up your shikigami as fodder."
The NPC pointed to two red Daruma dolls, which wobbled and moved over.
"Why are they all red? Can't you give me a white one?"
Autumn Water asked.
"Hmm... white Daruma dolls sell well."
“My coupon is genuine, you can’t treat it differently. I want a white Daruma doll, give it back to me.”
Qiu Shui said.
"Okay, I can only exchange it for a white Daruma doll. Are you sure you want it? I'll wrap it up for you."
Qiu Shui nodded, confirming that the one he had replaced was indeed a white three-star Daruma. After the NPC finished packing it up, she put down the ticket, took the two Daruma that were bound hand and foot, and continued strolling on the street.
"Thank you for your support! The shop owner is giving away free discount coupons today, come and enter the lucky draw! Meow~"
A group of Onmyoji (yin-yang masters) surrounded the street, and many of them were scratching tickets with great joy.
Qiu Shui peered in and saw a dressed cat in the crowd distributing the coupons that the Onmyoji had received.
"Meow, wanna try your luck at scratching coupons? Here you go, good luck, meow~"
Upon seeing Qiu Shui, the kitten approached her enthusiastically, its paw brushing across her hand until it held three coupons. Qiu Shui noticed a section of the coupons that was obscured; she lightly scratched it with her fingernail, revealing the words "20% off".
Scratch another one, "50% off". Scratch another one, "60% off".
"Meow! Congratulations! You got a 50% discount! Meow meow!"
"Oh my god, there are even 50% off coupons?"
"I always get 20% off!"
"I'm 10% off..."
A group of Onmyoji looked at her with envy, but Qiu Shui was puzzled.
What is the purpose of this coupon?
"You can recharge to buy gift packs. Gift packs that originally cost over a hundred yuan only cost seventy or eighty yuan with this coupon."
"Yes, recharge."
Top up? Pay with money?
Across from the general store is a luxurious shop where you can buy a purple jade charm as currency; apparently, the jade charm is obtained by spending real money.
"Aren't you going? If not, can I switch with you?"
A Kagura standing nearby asked with a smile.
"I don't know. I have a 40% off coupon. Do you want it?"
Qiu Shui unfolded her other hand, revealing a coupon that read "60% off".
"want."
Kagura nodded, placed two mysterious talismans on the coupon, added a bulging bag of gold coins, and then took the 60% off coupon.
"ah……"
This bag of gold coins has a full two hundred thousand!
As she put the 50% off coupon and coins into the basket, Kagura glanced at her a few times and asked gently, "Are you a new player?"
"I guess so. I've been an Onmyoji player for about a month now."
"Are you familiar with chess betting?"
Qiu Shui shook her head. "I don't know."
"There's a chessboard up ahead where you can gamble. If you bet correctly, you'll get a lot of rewards."
Qiu Shui looked up and saw a person in the distance waving a fan, with a chessboard floating in front of him, looking exceptionally handsome.
Is it there?
"Yes, hurry up, the market is about to open," Kagura instructed her.
Thank you.
After thanking him, Qiushui walked over and stood in front of the chessboard, where the amount of gold coins invested, information about the shikigami in this match, and the reward for a successful prediction were displayed.
Gold coins, jade, fragments...
It was indeed very generous, but she didn't know anything about the shikigami on either side. Seeing that there were two shikigami with swords on one side, she decisively bet on that side.
"Bet on the left, 300,000."
