Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 98 Thousand-Eyed Centipede (Please subscribe)

After placing the Pipa Scorpion, Chen Xuan came to the shop.

At this time, the barbarian girl Bai Yingying and Su Zhengming were bargaining loudly.

As a precious medicine for body cultivators, the price of Qi-replenishing powder has always been very transparent, one spirit stone for two.

But Su Zhengming is an unproven alchemist.

Bai Yingying is a typical money-grubber.

The one who plucks feathers from passing geese.

When Chen Xuan came out, the two were still haggling fiercely.

"Stop for a moment!"

As a big money sponsor who had just paid the spirit stones, Bai Yingying still gave him face.

"Shopkeeper, once the payment is made, I will not be held responsible! I will not return the spirit stones!"

Chen Xuan felt a headache.

"Do you have a Thousand-Eyed Centipede?"

"Centipedes? There are plenty of them in the mountains. If you want, I can catch dozens for you."

"By the way, how many spirit stones are you offering?"

Chen Xuan quickly corrected it.

"It's not a Thousand-legged Centipede, it's a Thousand-eyed Centipede. It's number 27 on the list of strange insects in the Myriad Poison Mountains."

"Oh, you mean the Thousand-Eyed Centipede! Isn't that a monster with many eyes?"

In Chen Xuan's hopeful eyes, Bai Yingying tilted her head to think for a moment, then said with regret, "No!"

My breath was almost blocked.

You say it so easily, but it's actually not true!
Chen Xuan recalled the famous works from his previous life, and when he saw the Pipa Poison Scorpion, he naturally thought of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord.

That is a strange insect that can become a Buddha. Before becoming a Buddha, it beat the Great Sage and made him flee into the ground.

It is not ranked very high in the list of strange insects in the Wandu Mountains, but it has the most potential.

"Why not?"

"This is a strange question, shopkeeper. I'm not a god, I don't have everything!"

"One hundred spirit stones!"

"what?"

Bai Yingying immediately perked up.

"I'll pay one hundred spirit stones for a Thousand-Eyed Centipede."

Chen Xuan emphasized it again.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

"I will definitely help you catch a Thousand-Eyed Centipede."

Seeing Bai Yingying's expression, Chen Xuan felt a little worried.

"Thousand-Eyed Centipede, is it very powerful?"

"It's not very powerful, but it burrows deep into the soil, so finding it is quite difficult!"

Bai Yingying stretched out her little hand calmly.

"Shopkeeper, it's not easy to find the Thousand-Eyed Centipede. You're rich, so give me a deposit first!"

Chen Xuan looked at the spirited barbarian girl in front of him speechlessly.

How could he be a fool to open a shop in the mixed Honghe Market?

Paying a deposit before seeing the strange insect is probably a precedent in the entire Honghefang City.

"I paid you the spirit stones, but you can't find the Thousand-Eyed Centipede to hand it over to me. What should I do?" Chen Xuan couldn't help but say.

"Don't you still have my sister? I'll write down the spiritual contract and I guarantee you'll catch him!"

Hearing this, Chen Xuan's heart moved.

If one could ask a great foundation-building cultivator to take action, and if he was a great foundation-building cultivator who inherited the power of insect cultivation, it shouldn't be difficult to capture a Thousand-Eyed Centipede.

Think of this.

It was rare for Chen Xuan to be generous.

"I'll pay you ten spirit stones first, and the deadline is two months. If you can't catch the Thousand-Eyed Centipede within two months, I'll return double the deposit."

Chen Xuan had no intention of tricking Bai Yingying.

The terms are fair.

"Row!"

Without saying a word, Bai Yingying took the spiritual contract written by the incarnation of Mu Ling and signed her name.

The incarnation of the wood spirit took out ten more spirit stones. Bai Yingying took them with a happy look on her face.

"Aren't you worried about not being able to catch the Thousand-Eyed Centipede?"

"Don't worry! I still have my sister! Anyway, once the spirit stones are in my pocket, no one can take them back!"

Bai Yingying also emphasized this point specifically.

"No one can!"

Chen Xuan understood everything completely.

This Wandu Mountain Range is poor and remote, and is home to a bunch of poor people who have a deep obsession with spirit stones.

This is true for the Five Poison Sect and the Bai Family Village as well.

"Okay, go ahead!"

Chen Xuan left the shop and returned to the practice room to meditate.

At noon, when I went to have dinner, I was surprised to find that there was a new guest in the house.

It was Bai Yingying.

"You haven't left yet?" "No! I placed an order with Master Sultan for seventy Qi-boosting powders, but he doesn't have enough and is still refining them."

"How many spirit stones?"

"Thirty spirit stones."

"Well, not bad, you earned it."

Chen Xuan thought about it and felt that it was not right.

"Then why are you coming to my house for dinner?"

"Master Sultan agreed. What else? Starve the customers to death? Is that how you do business?"

Bai Yingying argued confidently.

"Forget it. The little sister is so pitiful. She has to come out to make a living at such a young age." Jiang Yingxue persuaded.

Chen Xuan found it a little funny.

"Yes, this little sister is so pitiful. She was so pitiful that she earned 160 spirit stones from me!"

"Ah, so many?"

Jiang Yingxue was dumbfounded.

Bai Yingying didn't even look at the couple's expressions. She stretched out her chopsticks and scooped the large piece of monster meat into her bowl, then lowered her head and began to eat with relish.

While eating, he said, "Don't be stingy, owner. When you come to our Baijiazhai, I will treat you with the best ancient spring spirit wine!"

"The ancient spring spirit wine from our Baijiazhai is the best in the entire Ten Thousand Poison Mountains! You can't even get it outside!
Chen Xuan looked at Bai Yingying wolfing down the food and could only shake his head and invite Jiang Yingxue to eat together.

Still kind-hearted!

In the transaction with Bai Yingying, I always left room for maneuver and never lowered the price.

"Did your sister really say that the Pipa Poison Scorpion is worth three hundred spirit stones?"

Chen Xuan couldn't help but asked.

If it is really worth three hundred spirit stones, and he buys it at half price, will Sister Bai Yingying come back to settle the score with him?

"It's true. An adult Pipa Poison Scorpion is worth three hundred spirit stones! Yes, I remember correctly."

Bai Yingying said as she touched her bloated belly.

"An adult Pipa Poison Scorpion is worth three hundred spirit stones! When you told me that, you didn't say the first three words! Adult!"

An inexplicable anger rose.

Chen Xuan felt that the wild girl in front of him was not cute at all.

"Really? Maybe I spoke too quickly and you didn't hear clearly!"

Seeing Chen Xuan's fiery eyes, Bai Yingying immediately changed her words.

"Maybe I was in a hurry and forgot to say the first three words."

"Shopkeeper, you're not going to regret it, are you? I won't return the spirit stones after we've paid for the goods!"

Bai Yingying quickly stood up, turned around and ran away.

"Remember the Thousand-Eyed Centipede!"

"Remember, ninety spirit stones!"

Looking at Bai Yingying running out in a hurry, Chen Xuan couldn't help but chuckle.

"Husband, this little girl is quite entertaining."

"Don't mess with her. She has a powerful sister!"

"Very powerful? How powerful?"

"A thirty-year-old foundation-building master!"

"Ah, that's quite impressive. However, my husband is even more impressive. He will definitely be able to establish his foundation before he turns thirty!"

Jiang Yingxue has a mysterious faith in Chen Xuan and blindly worships him.

"It's not easy to build a foundation for ten years!"

Chen Xuan sighed softly.

"Husband, don't worry, I'm here, I will help you!"

Jiang Yingxue leaned gently against Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan and Jiang Yingxue were affectionate for a while, and when he reached the store, Bai Yingying had already left.

Su Zhengming was really exhausted.

"Twelve furnaces! Brother Xuan, I refined twelve furnaces of Qi-boosting powder!"

"Brother Su, you are tired, go back and rest."

After Su Zhengming left, Chen Xuan closed the shop.

"Husband, are they all gone?"

"Yeah. The sun is so hot, it's really hot!"

Chen Xuan slowly approached Jiang Yingxue.

"What do you want to do?"

"Didn't you say you would help me?"

"what……"

"Be quiet! Others might hear us!"

"No! I'm in my own home, what's there to be afraid of?"

A faint sound drifted into Honghefang Market, coming with the wind and going away with the wind.

It was like the crying of a ghost.

There was no peace in Honghe Market.
