Chapter 5 Meeting
The Alchemy Competition of the Cultivation Alliance attracted many cultivators, and the streets were full of people. Shen Suiren walked out of the training garden for two quarters of an hour, but still did not reach the market trading area.

The effect of the last fasting pill has worn off. Now she doesn't have a single spirit stone on her body, so she must sell the spirit talismans as soon as possible to buy food.

grumble

As she was walking, her stomach protested, which instantly attracted laughter from several nearby monks. It was so embarrassing.

Shen Suiren pretended not to hear and continued walking straight ahead, but he saw that the cultivator who walked into the restaurant in front was actually the manager of Lingtian.

She quickly turned back and turned at the corner, entering a very small shop. Upon closer inspection, she saw that there were quite a few goods on the counter.

Pills, alchemy furnaces, spiritual herbs, spiritual weapons, magic tools, robes, talismans, formation plates, animal skins, animal bones, feathers, etc., even spiritual rice is on display.

She waited for the shoppers to leave before approaching: "Want to buy the talisman?"

"Take it, fellow Taoist, wait a moment." The clerk called to the inner room, "Boss, we have the goods."

"Here I come." A middle-aged man in the early stage of foundation building came out and looked at Shen Suiren with a smile: "What are you going to do, little Taoist friend?"

She silently took off her treasure bag, took out fifty fireball talismans and placed them on the counter.

The shopkeeper scanned with his spiritual sense, "Mid-grade, I'll take three spirit stones and two pieces.

Since this is your first time patronizing, I will give you 80 low-grade spirit stones for each 50 tickets."

“Senior, my grandfather said that it can be sold in the market for three spirit stones, but yours is a bit too much.

Never mind, I'll squeeze over to Lingyun Building and start with two pieces." Shen Suiren picked up the fireball talisman and was about to put it away.

The shopkeeper held up his palm and said, "Little Taoist friend, you may not know that there are many people in the market recently, and all the shops are well-stocked with goods, so the prices are different from before.

Your talisman is of medium quality, but the paper quality is a bit poor. Even Lingyun Tower will only accept three of them for five spirit stones.

How about eighty-three spirit stones?"

Shen Suiren knew that the talisman paper was of poor quality, so he wanted to sell it at a street stall to earn a few more spirit stones. "I'll only sell it for eighty-five."

"Okay, let's be friends. I'll come back next time and the price will be the same." The shopkeeper was the one who made her talisman in the truth. It had rich spiritual essence and could be sold for three and a half spirit stones.

When Shen Suiren accepted the spirit stones and turned to leave, the shopkeeper tried to stop him: "Little Taoist friend, I have some top-grade blank talisman paper. One cut costs three spirit stones."

"I don't understand. I'll ask grandpa to buy it for me later." To buy supplies, you have to go to a big store to be assured. She is very hungry now and needs to eat.

And it is more economical to eat in places where ordinary people live.

As Shen Suiren turned the corner and had not yet stepped onto the street, it happened that a group of sect disciples passed by, talking and laughing.

She recognized Shen Suixing, who was two months older than her, at a glance. He was being talked to by his senior brothers and sisters from Taiyi Sect.

Also traveling with them were new disciples from the Cangyuan Sect and the Xuanjian Sect. The only one missing from the four major Taoist sects was the Xianyou Sect.

By the way, it was the first time I saw the young Shen Suixing. His chubby face looked pretty and warm when he smiled, and there was no trace of the frosty eyebrows and eyes that he would have in later years.

Oh yes, Suixing was just the childhood name given to her by the Shen couple themselves. She has always been using the name Shen Baiyu given to her by her master in the world.

As Shen Suiren turned around with a smile on his face, he heard Taiyi Sect's senior brother Yunchuan say, "Junior sister, what are you looking at?"

"No, I just feel that there are too many people." Shen Baiyu smiled with his smart eyes, and did not let his senior brother see his confusion just now. Just now, a strange gaze stared at his face for too long.

After walking a few steps, she glanced back at the street corner. It was deserted, a place full of people of all kinds; she should be more cautious. Meanwhile, Shen Suiren, the man she was looking at, had already wandered off to another street, where there were fewer people.

Although the items in the store were not high-end, they were cheap. She took a fancy to a set of meteor darts and bought them for thirty spirit stones.

Looking at the cheapest swords, the price was three or four hundred spirit stones, and a second-hand one was one hundred and eighty. She retreated instantly.

Shen Suiren had a general impression of the Lianmeng Market, so he quickly found the bridge separating the immortals and mortals, and exchanged spirit stones for a lot of gold cakes and a few taels of silver at the spirit plant shop on the other side of the bridge, in exchange for a set of mortal tea sets.

A low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for five hundred taels of silver, which is equivalent to fifty taels of gold, but sometimes you cannot buy a spirit stone with one hundred taels of gold.

Well, that’s the algorithm, you can change it if you want.

As soon as you enter the mortal area, the smell of fireworks suddenly appears, and the hawking sounds are more cheerful than those of the monks.

I found a dumpling restaurant and had a hearty serving of egg and huoxiang dumplings, which instantly soothed my stomach.

She slowly savored the second portion of vegetarian three-stuffing with braised beef, watching the boss's children continuously serving food to the customers.

When I was thinking about renting a house in the mortal area, two monks, one big and one small, came into the store.

Shen Suiren quickly stood up and bowed to the older monk: "Senior, nice to meet you again."

"It's you." Juede also recognized her. The young monk Juexing looked at her curiously and bowed with one hand, "I am Juexing, the junior disciple of Senior Brother Juede."

"When I was Suichu, I was helped by Senior Juede." Suichu was her former Taoist name. Shen Suiren had seen Juexing as an adult at the Big Buddha Temple and knew that he was three or four years younger than herself.

But Juede, such a unique Dharma name, was not in my memory. "It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. Could I invite you two to have a meal together? The vegetarian dumplings in this restaurant are very delicious."

"Don't spend money, we can just share a table." Juede saw that she had no head ornaments and was still wearing ordinary clothes, and he knew that she was not well off.

My fellow disciples were just protecting her on the teleportation array, so I really don't dare to take credit for it.

Shen Suiren would not force it, and asked the boss to wrap the beef in paper and replace it with two plates of vegetarian cold dishes.

It was difficult to talk while eating dumplings. She had wanted to wait until after the meal to ask the other person something, but unexpectedly, after finishing his meal, he said, "Dear Taoist Suichu, please enjoy your meal. We will take our leave first."

"Okay." Since the other person had no intention of talking, Shen Suiren would not pursue him. After all, she would go to the Big Buddha Temple in person in a few days.

Her current mission was to earn spirit stones. If she wanted to avoid running into anyone she knew in Floating Light City, the best way would be to live in the mortal area.

So while she was shopping for snacks, she asked street vendors for rental information.

Just as the longan vendor said there was a vacant room next door where he could practice, a shrill child's voice came from the end of the street: "Stop, little thief!"

Immediately afterwards, a gust of wind blew beside Shen Suiren, and a figure quickly passed by. Before the people on the street could hide, they were knocked over.

She acted quickly, shooting out a meteor dart and hitting the figure's anus, slowing down his speed. In the blink of an eye, he was caught up by the little monk who cried thief.

A large net of spiritual light unfolded from his hand, and just as it was about to cover the thief, the thief swung his hand, and sparks flew everywhere.

"Help!" Passersby who couldn't run away in time were hit by sparks and their clothes caught fire.

The young monk was obviously startled, and he quickly used a magic formula to put out the fire with the magic water, allowing the thief to escape from the net and get away.

He saw Shen Suiren also making hand gestures to save people, "I'll go chase the thieves, you help clean up the mess."

"Fellow Daoist Juexing, where is your senior brother? The man just now was in the late stage of Qi Refining, you can't catch up with him." Shen Suiren thought that Juede would also chase after him, so he tried to stop him, but he could not see him in his consciousness at this moment.
