Chapter 17 Brother Can Write You an IOU

Chapter 17 Brother Can Write You an IOU
The Feihong Mountains are more than a thousand miles long, and the sect has given a time limit of seven days.

In the first five days, Xiao Chen traveled more than 700 miles, and spent most of his time chasing people everywhere.

On the sixth day, he first met Su Wanqing, and then ran into the ghost-faced spider, which resulted in him only traveling more than a hundred miles.

It was not until noon on the seventh day that he successfully reached the exit at the northern end of the mountains.

This is a relatively narrow valley. Walk out and turn right for twenty miles, and you will reach the sect’s preset assembly point.

However, at this moment, the entrance of the valley was already occupied by several familiar faces from the Second Branch.

Because Xiao Chen was wearing a stealth cloak, he was not recognized at first, so when he passed by, he was stopped by Junior Brother Li who was standing in the front.

"What? Is something wrong?"

Hearing the question, Junior Brother Li was about to open his mouth to scold, but was stopped by Senior Brother Wang behind him: "Wait a moment, this senior brother has traveled hard, please have some rice wine to quench your thirst."

As he spoke, he actually took out a wine gourd and handed it over with a smile.

Junior Brother Li was puzzled, but still took a step back obediently.

Xiao Chen shook his head and refused, pulling out a handful of jade tokens. "I won't drink any more wine, but I do have a business deal. Are you, my junior brothers, interested?"

“So many jade tokens!”

Junior Brother Li behind him screamed in surprise, then quickly covered his mouth.

Senior Brother Wang was also surprised, and then quickly waved his hand: "Senior Brother, you are joking. We are just waiting for someone here. We don't understand business."

"One point for three spirit stones. As long as you are willing, all these points will be yours. How about this? This business is not a loss, right?"

Xiao Chen shook the jade token in his hand and said in a gentle and persuasive manner: "It's so hot, it's not easy for you to wait here, think about it."

Since these people are waiting here with bad intentions, they must be short of points and have corresponding needs.

Anyway, I have too many points to spend, so since I have come across this, I might as well sell some first.

Afterwards, the five brothers present each took out three spirit stones and pooled the money to buy a jade token worth five cents from Xiao Chen.

They were clearly conducting a transaction, but it seemed as if they were paying a toll to Xiao Chen.

Especially Senior Brother Wang, after handing the spirit stone to Xiao Chen, he actually stood there stupidly and didn't even take the jade token on his own initiative.

Xiao Chen placed a jade token with five points on it in his hand and said, "Here, take it. I said it's a deal, why are you so scared?"

After he left, Senior Brother Wang breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, I finally got through it. You scared me."

Junior Brother Li at the back asked, "Senior Brother Wang, that person has so many jade tokens. If we divide his jade tokens, won't we all have enough points?"

Senior Brother Wang was disappointed: "Are you stupid? Think about it with your stupid head. He can easily pull out a bunch of jade cards. Do you think you can beat him?"

"Besides, all the spirit beasts in the mountains were slaughtered this time. Who knows what happened. That man is wearing a cloak, so it's hard to say whether he is an outer disciple or not."

Upon hearing this, Junior Brother Li shuddered immediately: "Thank goodness you stopped me, or I would have gotten into trouble."

After coming out of the valley, Xiao Chen took off his cloak at the corner and went directly to the stall outside the camp as agreed.

There are also senior brothers from the inner sect and even some independent cultivators from the market waiting here in advance.

They specialize in recycling the spiritual beast materials collected during their trials or the spiritual herbs collected along the way.

The items collected by the disciples were often so varied that it was difficult to register them in the warehouse, and the sect didn't value the small profits, as those spirit beasts were much more expensive than the materials. However, there were always people who didn't mind and were willing to come and make a little money.

Some people also have ulterior motives, like Chen Guangyu who was setting up a stall in the southeast corner at this time.

Although he seemed to be selling items, there were only a few talismans with high prices on his stall, and a sign saying "recycling materials" was put up, which was just for show.

Xiao Chen thought about it, took out only the remaining 72 cents, packed it in a bag and walked over.

"Brother Chen, I'm here. Take a look at these materials. Do you want any?"

"It's Junior Brother Xiao, let me see." Chen Guangyu took the bundle, his hand felt heavy, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Junior Brother Xiao is a little ignorant. I was just pretending to recycle materials, I didn't really want those junk.

But he didn't say anything. Instead, he opened the bundle and prepared to count the jade cards.

"Fuck! You! You, you?"

Seeing the exclamation attracting the attention of others, Chen Guangyu suddenly had an idea: "Your fox fur is very good, haha, very good."

"Brother Chen, will you still accept the materials here?"

"Um, this, Junior Brother, wait a moment, let me check it out, wait a moment."

Chen Guangyu secretly counted them and found that there were 72 pieces of spirit stones in the bag, which were worth 216 spirit stones.

He was startled again, but this time he restrained himself from exclaiming, and his eyes just widened a little.

It's unlucky to say the least.

A few days ago, when he was in the mountains, apart from encountering a double-tailed scorpion at the beginning, he did not encounter two other spirit beasts until the day before yesterday in the last two hundred miles.

No one knew what was going on, but all the spiritual beasts in the middle area, which were easy to find, were slaughtered.

As the eldest son of the Chen family, he can't go into the deep mountains and forests, mainly because he might encounter real danger there.

As a result, he only earned a pitiful 14 points in the end. Setting up a stall in the morning only earned him 40 points, leaving him with a considerable gap in points.

According to prior estimates, to compete for the top ten, about 70 points are needed, and the top three require at least 100 points.

Originally, Chen Guangyu felt that there was no hope for him to advance to the top of the rankings this time, after all, he was so unlucky.

Unexpectedly, I met such a lucky guy!
This seemingly ordinary Junior Brother Xiao actually brought in 72 points, filling up the points gap in one go.

But Chen Guangyu thought about it and thought that this seemed a bit too much. That was 200 spirit stones, which was not a small amount.

Anyway, there were unexpected circumstances this time, and according to his inquiries, the other competitors were also short of points.

He already has 54 points, and now he only needs to add another 50 points, and he should be able to secure a top three spot.

So Chen Guangyu's eyes turned: "Junior Brother Xiao, you are really lucky this time. You can actually encounter so many spirit beasts."

"But I don't have that many spirit stones on me. How about I give you fifty points?"

Xiao Chen was originally worried that he wouldn't be able to eat all the points, but he didn't expect that even though he had reduced the amount, he still wanted to refuse: "Brother, didn't you say you wanted as many as you could get?"

"Well, of course, Senior Brother is a man of his words, but I really don't have any money on hand. If you are willing, Senior Brother can write you an IOU for the remaining spirit stones. What do you think?"
