Chapter 011 Dream of the Imperial City
The night was cool, and there was a layer of autumn frost on the stone slabs of the street.
Luo Zhen walked to the east end of Tianshui Town. There was a place surrounded by stone fences with a radius of two or three feet. In the middle was a well. The residents of Tianshui Town ate the water in the well.
Luo Zhen took out two bottles of selected elixir from his arms, poured them into the well, and then quietly left.
The next day, after breakfast, Luo Zhen rushed to some other people's homes in the town. Each family was very enthusiastic, and several families insisted on leaving him for lunch.
Luo Zhen stayed in Tianshui Town for a day, saying that he secretly ran back this time and could not stay for a long time, so he said goodbye to Xiangxiang, Uncle Chen and Aunt Li and others, and left Tianshui Town.
Tianshui Town is too far from the Tianyi Sword School, which is 27,000 miles away. If you walk on your legs, you may have to walk to which monkey year and month. Therefore, Luo Zhen had to carry the thunder force painfully, pinched the thunder escape formula, and escape in the direction of the Tianyi Sword School.
Using Lei Dun intermittently, it took seven days to come to the most prosperous city of Yunchu, Mengze City, which is also the capital of Yunchu.
It's not too far from the Tianyi Sword School.
Mengze City is divided into inner city and outer city. The inner city is the palace, which is the place where the successive lords of Yunchu. The mansions of ministers and royal children are basically in the outer city. Of course, most of the people living in the outer city of Mengze City are flat-headed people.
Entering the gate of the outer city of Mengze City, and walking forward for a while, there are four streets arranged in a "well" shape. Luo Zhen first solved the problem of accommodation and eating, and then went around the city, selling jade, selling silk weaving, selling rouge, selling sugar, etc. Pedestrian merchants on the street lined up one after another.
Walking through an alley, an antique sign appeared in front of Luo Zhen.
"Elixir Pavilion"
Luo Zhen took a look and guessed that it should be a trading store such as elixirs. He went in and said hello to see if he could get a little news about "life and chemical elixir".
As soon as I raised my legs and stepped into the gate, there was a strong smell of medicine.
A counter made of long red iron wood is placed in the hall. The back of the medicine cabinet is neatly full of bottles and cans, and the bottle body is labeled, which is no smaller than Tianxuan's Danfang.
Several green shirt guys in the store are explaining the ingredients, medicinal properties and effects of several elixir to several customers who look like immortals. A man in a cyan shirt stood behind the counter and nodded slightly to Luo Zhen. He smiled and said, "This guest, what kind of elixir do you need?"
Luo Zhen is only interested in "life-making and chemical elixir" at this moment, but it is not easy to ask directly. He came forward and whispered, "Oh, well, I have a friend who is an alchemist. Recently refined a batch of elixir. I want to exchange this batch of elixir for some other elixir. I don't know if you can exchange it here?"
The guy still smiled and said, "If the elixir reaches the quality of a elixir, I can inform Mr. Qi and let him decide whether to trade or not. I don't know if it's convenient for the guest official to take out the elixir to have a look?
Luo Zhen put his hand under his sleeve and moved his mind. He chose one of several a large number of elixirs to restore aura and spiritual power, pinched a total of four in his palm and handed them to the clerk, saying, "These four are all two-grade elixirs, each with more than ten. Do you think the color is still in line with the standard of your transaction?"
The man took it and sniffed it carefully. A strong pungent smell of elixir emanated. The man looked at Luo Zhen with a little surprise. The elixir used in the secular world now is generally refined by some unpopular alchemists, and generally has no grade. The real elixir in the cultivation sect is It will not flow into the secular world easily.
However, the one in the front eye casually took out four and said that there were more than ten each. Is the elixir worthless now? How did he know that Luo Zhen washed away the elixir of thousands of disciples of Tianxuanzong, so he was so rich.
After a moment of frenment, he walked out of the medicine cabinet and asked Luo Zhen to follow him upstairs to see Qi's stewor.
The second floor is full of elegant rooms. Only customers with a certain status are eligible to trade on the second floor. The guy introduced Luo Zhen into an elegant room and went to inform Guan Qi.
Luo Zhen took the opportunity to look around. The area of this elegant room is not large, but the design is very exquisite. Some antique tables, chairs and furniture are elegantly and generously arranged, making people feel very comfortable. On the incense table, there is a bronze incense burner, a faint purple smoke rises from the furnace, and the whole elegant room is full of light sandalwood.
After a young age, the clerk introduced a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a gray coat and slightly fat.
As soon as the middle-aged fat man came in, he bowed his hand to Luo Zhen and said, "What's your name, Qi Yun, the stew manager of Lingdan Pavilion?"
Luo Zhen also bowed his hand back and felt that there was no need to hide it, so he said honestly, "Luo Zhen."
"Okay, I heard that Brother Luo has many second-grade elixirs to trade?"
Luo Zhen nodded and handed the four elixirs to Qi Yun for inspection.
Qi Yun carefully picked it up and looked it all over carefully. He nodded with satisfaction, with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, it's really all three-grade elixir, and it's good. I don't know if Brother Luo wants to exchange it for other elixirs of equal value or some spiritual stones. To be honest, the number of second-grade elixir we have in reserve here is only 23. If I change the spiritual stone, I can get up to ten spiritual stones for 40 second-grade elixirs.
Luo Zhen was slightly meditating and felt that it would be more cost-effective to change the spiritual stone. Anyway, he didn't need the elixir now, and he didn't even have a medium-grade spiritual stone except for the 53 lower-grade spiritual stone saved in Tianxuanzong's three years.
So, Luo Zhen pretended to be very disappointed and said, "Actually, I'm helping a friend to trade on his behalf. Before that, he told me not to change the spirit stone, but to change other elixir. You know, alchemists are very persistent."
Qi Yun couldn't see Luo Zhen's meaning, so he frowned and looked painful. He said, "Well, add two more medium-grade spiritual stones. I really can't take it out if there are too many."
Luo Zhen thought that he couldn't squeeze much oil and water, so he handed over the spiritual stone with one hand and the elixirs with the other.
After the transaction, Luo Zhen asked, "Mr. Qi, do you know where there is a 'life and biological elixir' transaction? My friend is going to make this kind of elixir and wants to get one to study first.
Qi Yun was stunned and looked surprised. He said, "'The elixir of life and creation' is an authentic four-grade elixir, which is definitely not available in this secular place. However, as far as I know, there is a small market square under the Tianyi Sword School, where many immortals trade. Every autumn, an underground auction will be held in that market, and many disciples above the foundation period will participate in it. For example, the best runes, precious elixirs, some special charms, magic formulas, etc. will appear on the auction house. You can go there to try your luck. After a pause, he said, "Calculation of the date, it should be held in two days."
If Luo Zhen got something after hearing this, he thanked the steward Qi and left the "Elixir Pavilion"
Before going out, the stewor Qi sent it to the door and begged Luo Zhen again and again. In the future, if his alchemist friend has refined any elixir, if he wants to trade, he must find him.
Luo Zhen has made up his mind to go to the market under the gate of Tianyi Sword School tomorrow to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment in advance and make some preparations. It's always good. He knows that auctions are not ordinary transactions, and killing people often happen after auctions.
