To Chen Lin's surprise, the fat monk did not refuse verbally this time, but showed signs of struggling.
There is a way!
Chen Lin's eyes lit up. It seemed that Fa had not sold any puppets in the past two days and was hit hard.
He immediately struck while the iron was hot and said, "It's just a production method that can be copied. It won't disappear once it's sold. Why do you have to be so obsessed with it? Things are only valuable when they are used. If you treasure them, you won't be able to obtain cultivation resources, and how can your cultivation improve?"
After hearing what Chen Lin said, the fat monk, who was already hesitant, gritted his teeth and said, "You are right, I am too stubborn. However, my puppetry technique is inherited from my ancestors. Unless you can bring me something that makes me excited, I will not sell it."
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and took out a small bottle.
"Then fellow Daoist, do you think this item is suitable?"
Then he handed it over.
There were two Chu Yuan Dan in the bottle. The other party's cultivation was just stuck at the third level of Qi training. He didn't believe that the other party could resist the temptation of the pills.
"This is, the elixir!"
Sure enough, when the fat monk opened the bottle, he saw two round pills with medicinal fragrance inside, and he was immediately surprised and delighted.
Chen Lin nodded and said, "Yes, this is the elixir that can improve your cultivation. I used two of these elixirs to break through the middle stage of Qi training. Daoist friend, do you believe my sincerity now?"
After saying that, he took the bottle of pills back from the other person's hand and stared at him without saying a word.
The fat monk gritted his teeth, looked at Chen Lin and said, "Are you telling the truth? Did you really break through to the middle stage of Qi training after taking two pills of this pill?"
Chen Lin still had a faint smile on his face and said, "Of course it's true. If we want to trade, I can use the Heart Demon Oath as a guarantee."
The fat monk's face changed.
In the middle stage of Qi training, that was really his obsession, and he dreamed of breaking through.
Only when one reaches the middle stage of Qi training can one be considered a true immortal cultivator, and such temptation is simply irresistible.
He ventured hundreds of miles to come to this trade fair just to sell the puppet he made and see if he could buy a pill.
But he didn't expect that he hadn't sold a single one for two days in a row, and the price of the pills also made him despair.
Thinking of this, the fat monk gritted his teeth and took out a yellowed book from his robe.
"This is the mechanical puppetry technique handed down from our Wu family. My ancestors also produced a cultivator who had established his foundation. The inheritance of this mechanical puppetry technique is more valuable than the two pills you gave me. If you want to trade, you need to add two more pills!"
Chen Lin was stunned.
The other party spoke in a very arrogant tone, but he actually recorded it in books instead of jade slips.
This is a bit low-end!
He took the book in his hand and glanced through it.
The book is very thick, with four big characters "Wu Shi Gui Dian" written on the cover, which looks very imposing.
It records more than ten kinds of puppet refining methods, from low to high, and the last part also records a puppet technique for the foundation-building period!
Although Chen Lin had never heard of most of the materials used to refine this foundation-building puppet, he had to admit that if what was recorded above was true, then its value was indeed incomparable to his two Chu Yuan Dan pills. No wonder the other party had been unwilling to take it out for exchange.
The foundation-building inheritance is not something that can be obtained casually.
"Is this book of yours, Daoist friend, the original one? Are you sure the contents recorded in it are not false?"
Chen Lin was a little skeptical.
The other party's cultivation is too low. Isn't he afraid that such a treasure will be stolen if he carries it with him
The fat monk smiled and said, "It is indeed the original, but I have memorized the contents by heart, and I have not made any changes to the contents above. If you don't believe me, I can also swear an oath to the inner demon."
Chen Lin nodded, no longer caring about anything else, and took out two more pills, put them in a bottle, and handed it to the other party.
"Then I wish our transaction a success. Swear!"
The fat monk took the pill bottle excitedly, and this time he did not hesitate and made a vow directly.
Chen Lin also swore the same oath.
The other party also proposed the restriction that it cannot be passed on to outsiders, but only required that it cannot be sold for profit. However, it can be passed on to disciples.
The other party also said that if there was a chance, he hoped he could promote this puppet technique and find a disciple named Wu to pass it on.
There was a lot of sadness in his words.
Chen Lin sensed the other party's pursuit of this mechanical puppetry technique and his obsession with his family. Before leaving, he clasped his fists and said, "If I have the ability in the future, I will definitely meet your requirements. I hope you can also overcome all obstacles on the road to immortality and go further and further!"
After the transaction was completed, the fat monk packed up his things and hurriedly left the market.
Chen Lin continued to look for the items he needed in the market.
Finally, he came to Zhao's Trading Company and exchanged two low-level spiritual herbs for a first-grade mid-quality flying sword, but it was a second-hand one.
But no matter what, it is a mid-grade first-grade weapon, much stronger than the lower-grade first-grade weapon he is using now, and his combat power has been slightly improved.
As it was, he really had nothing left to trade, and his spirit stones were almost used up, so he left the market.
I originally wanted to take part in the small exchange meeting for free to share cultivation experiences, but unfortunately the invitation tokens had all been sent out and I didn't get a number.
After leaving the market, Chen Lin felt that he had gained a lot from the three-day trade fair. If he heard of such an event somewhere else, he would definitely participate.
Because it was just past noon and there was still a long time before the trade fair ended, there were not many people outside the market.
Chen Lin went all the way back to his residence.
Then he began to retreat.
The huge house became very quiet, and no one showed up for several days.
On this day, Chen Lin sat upright on the cushion in the training room, closed his eyes and felt the nameless sword energy that was re-condensed in his body.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, sparkling with light.
"We can't wait any longer. No matter what the consequences are, we must try it!"
The sword energy was ready, and Chen Lin decided to try to kill the melanin bugs immediately, even if there was danger.
There is only one Blood Qi Pill left, and there is no point in delaying for another ten or eight days.
Moreover, the sooner it is dealt with, the safer it will be, in case Yu Yuehai is not dead and follows the insect's sensing to come to the door.
Even though such a long time has passed and the other party hasn't found us yet, and he may be dead, we cannot leave any loopholes.
Thinking of this, a look of determination flashed across Chen Lin's eyes.
He slapped his storage bag and took out an enlightenment pill.
He needs to take a pill first, and when the effect of the pill wears off and his headache occurs, the melanin worm will be fully visible, and that will be the best time to take action.
After swallowing the pill without hesitation, Chen Lin took out the Wu's Sutra and began to study it.
He did not aim too high and study the contents of the foundation-building period later, but only studied the first and most basic one, which was the tiger puppet on the fat monk's stall.
Under the magical effect of the enlightenment pill, he quickly understood the key.
There was still some time left before a quarter of an hour, so Chen Lin simply took out the rusty iron piece that recorded the Aurora Sword Technique.
