"Dazhuang, who sold this 'Nine Pattern Bamboo' to you?"
Zhou Donghuang took out a bamboo-like medicinal material from a pile of medicinal materials that Da Zhuang bought for him. It was about two fingers long. From top to bottom, there were a total of nine clearly visible carving-like lines. It looked very special.
Nine-patterned Bamboo, the most precious medicinal material in the batch of medicinal materials that Zhou Donghuang asked Da Zhuang to help buy, is the main medicinal material he needs to refine an elixir, and it is also the most valuable.
Of course, the price fluctuates, usually around one hundred mid-grade spiritual stones.
One hundred middle-grade spiritual stones are equivalent to ten high-grade spiritual stones.
The core disciples of the Benlei Sword Sect can receive ten high-grade spiritual stones from the Benlei Sword Sect in one month.
As for the disciples of the inner sect, it takes ten months to receive ten high-grade spiritual stones, because the Benlei Sword Sect only distributes one high-grade spiritual stone to the disciples of the inner sect every month... As for the disciples of the outer sect, it is even less. Yes, it is said that there are only three middle-grade spiritual stones.
"It's Pan Yilin, a disciple of Xia Gu."
Da Zhuang glanced at the bamboo that Zhou Donghuang specially took out from a pile of medicinal materials, thought for a moment, and then thought about it.
"How many spiritual stones did he sell to you?"
Zhou Donghuang asked again.
"One hundred and ten middle-grade spiritual stones."
Da Zhuang said.
"I've collected quite a lot of spiritual stones."
Zhou Donghuang narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed through the slits of his eyes at the right time.
"how?"
Although Da Zhuang looked a little stupid, he still knew how to watch people's actions. Seeing Zhou Donghuang like this, he felt that something was wrong, "Is there something wrong with this Jiu Pattern Bamboo?"
"This is not Jiuwen Bamboo."
Zhou Donghuang suddenly opened his eyes, shook his head and said, "This is six-striped bamboo. The other three lines are all artificially added... Although the nine lines on it look the same, the arrangement is uneven."
"In normal nine-pattern bamboo, the distance between each pattern is basically the same."
"Look at it...if these three lines were gone, the other six lines would be at the same distance from each other. However, the existence of these three lines broke the regularity of the distance between the lines and became irregular. ”
As Zhou Donghuang spoke, he displayed the Nine Pattern Bamboo in front of Da Zhuang's eyes, pointed at the three patterns on it and said to Da Zhuang.
"Although there are only three lines of difference between six-pattern bamboo and nine-pattern bamboo, the difference in value is extremely large... A piece of nine-pattern bamboo is worth about a hundred middle-grade spiritual stones. If you buy a real nine-pattern bamboo, Patterned Bamboo, one hundred and ten middle-grade spiritual stones are not expensive.”
"But, this is fake Nine Pattern Bamboo."
"It's just six-patterned bamboo."
"The value of six-patterned bamboo is at most one-tenth that of nine-patterned bamboo... This six-patterned bamboo is worth at most ten middle-grade spiritual stones."
"you were fooled."
Zhou Donghuang shook his head and said.
Except for alchemists, many people do not understand the specific characteristics of Jiuwen Bamboo.
In Zhou Donghuang's previous life, many people were deceived by the Nine-Pattern Bamboo pretending to be Six-Pattern Bamboo, but those who were deceived were all laymen or average alchemists. Even if a skilled alchemist didn't know how to use Nine-Pattern Bamboo, This feature of identifying Jiuzhizhu can also be judged by other subtle features on its body.
Those subtle characteristics are all found in medicinal materials that have been aged for a certain period of time, and they lead to the same goal through different routes.
Jiuwen Bamboo is no exception.
"Being...cheated?!"
After listening to Zhou Donghuang's words, Da Zhuang's face turned red, his eyes widened even more, and anger began to rise in the depths of his eyes, "That Pan Yilin, he actually lied to me? He actually lied to me?"
"no!"
"I want to find him! I want to find him!"
The big eyes turned a scarlet color because of anger, as if he transformed into a hellish Shura at this moment, choosing people to devour.
"Junior brother... I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"
Da Zhuang almost snatched the Nine Pattern Bamboo from Zhou Donghuang's hand. After saying something to Zhou Donghuang with a red face, he turned around and left in a hurry.
"Xia Gu disciple, Pan Yilin?"
Not long after Da Zhuang left, Zhou Donghuang stood up and followed him out.
The Benlei Sword Sect has a place specifically for people from the sect to trade. Whether they are high-level sect members or sect disciples, they can conduct various transactions here. Once something is sold, as long as the money and goods are mutually affectionate, the transaction is basically done. All items above are non-refundable and non-refundable.
Of course, if you sell something and decide it’s not worth it later and want to buy it back, there’s nothing you can do as long as the buyer doesn’t let go.
The 'Trading Square' of the Benlei Sword Sect is under the jurisdiction of the sect and is fair, just and open.
"Senior Brother Lian, if I sell the fake Jiuwen Bamboo to Da Zhuang in Qiugu, I will definitely anger Senior Sister He Mengxi in Qiugu... Senior Sister He Mengxi is the only daughter of the owner of Qiugu. She wants to settle the score with me. You must do it. Protect me, don’t leave me alone.”
On one side of the Exchange Square, a young man in green clothes said to another young man in a gold robe with silver trim.
The former has a medium build and an ordinary appearance, the kind of person who can never be found if he is lost in the crowd.
The latter was tall and handsome in appearance, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be always curved, revealing an evil meaning.
"Besides, you asked me to do this."
The young man in green said with some fear.
"Junior Brother Pan, don't you believe me?"
The young man in golden robe glanced at the former and asked meaningfully: "Are you afraid that I will sacrifice you to please Junior Sister Mengxi?"
"No...no."
Although the former did think so, he did not dare to say it, because the person standing in front of him was the direct disciple of their Xia Valley Valley Master, the absolute pride of heaven in Xia Valley. If he offended the other party, he would not be punished in Xia Valley. The valley will be difficult to move forward.
Once he is kicked out by Xia Gu, it is impossible for San Gu to want him again. As long as he still wants to stay in Benlei Sword Sect, he is destined to stay in the fifth hall of the outer sect for the rest of his life.
Unless, he can become the core disciple of Benlei Sword Sect.
However, he knew how difficult it was to become a core disciple.
"Pan Yilin!!"
Just when the young man in green was a little submissive to the young man in golden robe, a roar like thunder suddenly came from the sky above the trading square. The sound contained rich real energy and was deafening.
Suddenly, the eyes of a group of people in the trading square fell on the tall and burly figure above the square.
This is a burly young man who is more than three meters tall. He is so tall that he does not even look like a human being. As soon as he appeared, many people immediately recognized him, "It is Da Zhuang, a disciple of Qiugu!"
"What does this big guy from Qiugu want to do?"
"I've heard that this guy was raised by a monster giant ape... Did he learn the ferocity of the monster?"
"Who provoked him?"
…
High in the sky, the tall and burly Qiugu disciple Da Zhuang successfully attracted everyone's attention.
"Dazhuang, what do you want to do?"
The young man in green clothes was submissive in front of the young man in gold robe, but in front of Da Zhuang, he was a little arrogant. He looked up at Da Zhuang standing in the air and asked in a cold tone.
He is obviously Pan Yilin, a disciple of Xia Gu who Da Zhuang came to see during this trip.
"Pan Yilin, you sold me fake Jiuwen Bamboo!"
Da Zhuang fell through the air and was in front of Pan Yilin in a blink of an eye. Because he was too tall and Pan Yilin was only about 1.7 meters tall, he was completely overlooking Pan Yilin and asked in a deep voice.
"Fake nine-pattern bamboo?"
Pan Yilin raised his eyebrows, "Dazhuang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say this nonsense... The Jiuwen Bamboo I sold you is not fake."
"Isn't it fake?"
With a flushed face, Da Zhuang took out the nine-patterned bamboo he bought from Pan Yilin and showed it in front of everyone who gathered around to join in the fun. "Junior brother said, your nine-patterned bamboo is fake. The lines between The distance is irregular and the essence is just six-patterned bamboo.”
"The six-patterned bamboo is worth at most ten middle-grade spiritual stones, but you accepted one hundred and ten middle-grade spiritual stones from me!"
"Do you really think I'm big and easy to bully?"
Da Zhuang glared at Pan Yilin, his tone became deeper and deeper, and even the golden essence of his body escaped involuntarily, as if he might take action against Pan Yilin at any time.
"Is that Jiuwen Bamboo?"
"It seems that it really isn't nine-patterned bamboo... The pattern of nine-patterned bamboo shouldn't be like this."
"It's nine-patterned bamboo forged from six-patterned bamboo. Pan Yilin actually sold the forged nine-patterned bamboo to Da Zhuang, and also sold it for 110 middle-grade spiritual stones? This is not very kind!"
"Ordinary people who don't understand Jiuwen Bamboo may really be deceived by this fake Jiuwen Bamboo."
"How dare this Pan Yilin be so bold? Who in our Benlei Sword Sect doesn't know that behind this Qiugu disciple Da Zhuang is the Qiugu Valley Master's daughter He Mengxi? Although he does not violate the rules of the trading square, after all, he has a wish It's a fight, but isn't he worried that He Mengxi will settle the score with him? "
…
Some of the onlookers recognized that the Nine Pattern Bamboo in Da Zhuang's hand was fake, but more people were surprised by Pan Yilin's courage.
Where does this Xiagu disciple, who has not even entered the Dharma Realm, have the courage to deceive the Qiugu Valley Master’s rich man like this
Isn't he afraid of death
"Da Zhuang!"
Facing the pointing fingers of a group of people, Pan Yilin's face darkened, "How do you prove that this is the nine-patterned bamboo I sold you? The nine-patterned bamboo I sold you was not this one... You took it from me and sold it to you Your real Nine Pattern Bamboo, and then you come here to blackmail me with a fake one?"
Hearing Pan Yilin's repulsive words, Da Zhuang's face turned red with anger, and then he yelled angrily, "Pan Yilin, you are spitting blood, I will kill you!"
As soon as the words fell, Da Zhuang's golden true energy surged all over his body and he rushed towards Pan Yilin.
However, at the moment when Pan Yilin's golden essence rose up in time, someone took action faster. As he raised his hand, a giant palm with a height of one foot appeared and pressed down Da Zhuang's whole body. On the ground, he couldn't move.
The person who took action was the young man in golden robe beside Pan Yilin.
"Dazhuang, the sect's trading square has the rules of the trading square, and sect disciples are prohibited from fighting privately."
The young man in golden robe said in a deep voice.
"It's Lian Can from Summer Valley!"
"Lian Can, the direct disciple of the Xia Valley Valley Master, entered the Dharma Realm at the age of twenty-six... He is also one of the most promising beings among the younger generation of Xia Valley to become a core disciple."
…
The eyes of the onlookers all fell on the young man in gold robe.
