Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 80: Meet Cheng Cheng Again

Qin Yi rested all night and went out to the market early the next morning.

Eagle Li probably wishes that I will leave as soon as possible, so he will of course try his best to find the solution to the spell, but I can’t just wait for him passively. It feels uncomfortable not doing anything.

The technique shops in the city may provide some clues, and I can also shop for medicinal materials for Liu Su.

“You human being, are you kidding me? How is there a way to recover lost lifespan? Just say you want to find treasure that increases lifespan.”

Faced with the ridicule, Qin Yi said, “Do you know where can I get such a treasure?”

The shop owner sneered, “There is one in Beastkin City, but do you dare or not.”

Qin Yi was stunned, “What?”

“Our King!”

“…”

The shop owner waved his hand impatiently, “Get lost, if there is something that can increase lifespan, who wouldn’t covet it? When will it be you human’s turn? Don’t waste my time!”

After leaving the shop, Qin Yi shook his head. This was already the tenth store he had been kicked out of. The information he got was disappointing.

The thing that can increase lifespan does seem to be a treasure. At least, it can’t be found in the Beastkin City. Liu Su also said that the treasure that can increase lifespan was priceless. In fact, some items that expand little lifespan are not too rare, but everyone wants it. Even if it’s available, no one will sell it. Thus, very few of them can be circulated in the market.

According to this logic, the situation in ancient and modern times should be similar…

“Forget it.” He walked into a nearby medicine material shop, planning to prepare pills for Liu Su first.

This was a quite large medicine shop. There were medicinal materials and refined elixirs. Qin Yi had some expectations, so he asked the store, “Is there anything to nourish the soul?”

The shopkeeper glanced at him and said, “Why does a Phoenix Initiation level 3 human need to nourish soul?”

Qin Yi said with a grievance, “I’m buying it for beastkin.”The sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

The shopkeeper’s face looked friendly quickly, “I see. This is soul bind grass…”

It’s the same thing as what I got from Dong Huazi, but this one is better kept, has better potency, and can also be refined into elixirs. Qin Yi was quite pleased, “What’s the price?”

“10 catties of human flesh can exchange for 3 taels of soul bind grass.” The shopkeeper said with a smile, “You can also cut your own meat.”

Don’t try to fool me into cutting off my meat. 10 pounds will kill me. Qin Yi said in annoyance, “Change to another currency. Do you think I’m poor?”

I got some gold and silver from the shaman. The strange thing is that these gold and silver are placed in the voodoo spell materials. Qin Yi was suddenly worried that if Beastkin City didn’t use gold and silver as currency, he really didn’t know how to buy it.

Fortunately, gold and silver could indeed be used as many types of materials, so they had their own value. They were also 1 of the currencies in Beastkin City. The shopkeeper said, “One tael of gold is worth one tael of soul bind grass.”

Qin Yi twitched his cheeks, finally realizing how valuable his meat was.

“Are there any other soul-nurturing things?”

“There is also a golden soul flower…” The shopkeeper looked him over, “but I doubt you can afford it.”

Liu Su said hurriedly, “Qin Yi Qin Yi, buy it!”

This tone… Qin Yi was ready to cut his meat, “How much?”

“If you convert it into gold…” The shopkeeper calculated for a while and grinned, “One flower costs 500 catties of gold.”

Is this gold or dung? Even my meat is not enough!

Qin Yi pondered for a moment, then he took out a Blood Cleaning Elixir left by Ye Ling, “Can this be converted into money?”

“Eh?” The shopkeeper sniffed, “The medicinal power of this elixir… if I’m not mistaken, is it used to fuse different bloodlines?”

Qin Yi secretly praised his good sense of smell, “Exactly.”

The shopkeeper sniffed again for a long time. When he looked up at Qin Yi, his eyes were a little suspicious, “Human, I’m not making things difficult for you. This elixir is not something that a human can possess. You have to have proof that this is not stolen goods, otherwise I dare not trade with you.”

Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t feel that he was being made difficult. Instead, he felt that Beastkin King Shenghuang’s management was amazing.

The first impression that Beastkin City gave should be that it was bloody and chaotic, especially when beastkin monsters were unabashedly discriminatory toward humans. He was prepared to be robbed of the elixir, and he even planned to use Eagle Li’s name to coerce the shopkeeper. He really didn’t expect the reaction of the shopkeeper.

“How can I prove that I refine this elixir? Should I do it now for you?”

“It would be okay if a local beastkin can guarantee for you. Aren’t you here to buy medicine for beastkin?” The shopkeeper became increasingly suspicious.

Qin Yi was in a dilemma. Where can I find a guarantee? Do I really have to go back to Eagle Li to buy something?

“I’ll guarantee for him.” A little girl’s voice suddenly came from the door. Qin Yi turned around and saw a little fox standing there with a smile, “You’re not allowed to rip off the customer. The price should always be based on market value.”

The shopkeeper looked at the little fox with surprise, but then he quickly calmed down, “This elixir is a grade 7 Blood Cleansing Elixir. It is extremely effective. It can be exchanged for 2 golden soul flowers. You can choose other adjuvant medicines that do not exceed the value.”

The little fox smiled, “Fair enough.”

The shopkeeper smiled back, “Actually, this Blood Cleaning Elixir is also useful for you. Are you trying to swindle his elixir?”

The little fox pursed her lips and hummed, then she turned to Qin Yi and said, “My boss said you are her friend and asked if you would like to meet her.”

Qin Yi looked at her and nodded.

The little fox became happy and volunteered, “What adjuvant medicine do you want? Write a copy to me. I will keep an eye on it for you.”

Qin Yi wrote a list to her. When he walked out of the door, he saw a stunning woman standing quietly on the street, staring at him with her beautiful eyes.

Cheng Cheng.

Seeing him looking over, Cheng Cheng smiled and pointed at the nearby alley asking if he wanted to go in and sit. Qin Yi walked over and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect to meet you here at the market. Are we bound by destiny?”

Cheng Cheng’s eyes showed a hint of mischief. She held his hand and walked into the alley.

Qin Yi looked at their hands in a daze. Isn’t this girl too proactive?

But I held her hand and ran away not just once or twice. I even hugged her and rolled around several times. Maybe she is used to it?

Turning into the alley, there was a back door. Cheng Cheng pulled him into the door. In front of him was a backyard, with a pavilion, flowing water, and rockeries. The environment was quite elegant. There were several little foxes standing on the left and right, staring at Qin Yi curiously.

Cheng Cheng took Qin Yi and sat down in the pavilion. There were all kinds of fruits and melons on the stone table in the pavilion. The colors were bright, which greatly increased appetite. A little fox came over with a wine pot. The amber wine flowed tinklingly, and the fragrance of wine, flowers, and beauty filled the air. Qin Yi looked at Cheng Cheng’s flowery smile and always felt like he was in a dream, very unreal.

She was so beautiful.

Different from the worn down look at the beginning, the blood stains on her face had been replaced with a light application of powder. She looked like a hibiscus in full bloom. Her big, watery eyes contained tenderness and affection. The alluring beauty contained a watery tenderness in the color, which is enough to make any man intoxicated and unable to move his eyes away.

Coupled with the pleasant environment, the slightly rough style of the Beastkin City suddenly had human dexterity, making it look like a fairyland. He felt like being in a story… a dream that would be shattered when waking up.

Liu Su coughed.

Qin Yi woke up, raised his glass, and laughed, “So Miss Cheng Cheng is really a rich person.”

Cheng Cheng pursed her lips and smiled, eclipsing the surrounding flowers.

TL: Seems like Cheng Cheng is purposely looking for him, why though? It is almost impossible between them…
