The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

The time for the disguise technique was only six hours. After buying the elixir, Matthew went directly back to the inn.

Early the next morning, Matthew disguised himself as a skinny old man and went out again.

Today, he planned to go out to buy some materials needed for alchemy.

Although he had some spirit stones, Matthew didn't want to be slaughtered in vain.

It took me some time to find out the prices of the items I needed.

Matthew did not buy a lot of materials at one time, buy some in one place and then immediately change shops.

Even so, one day is simply not enough time.

It took seven or eight days for Matthew to collect all the required items, and there were dozens of copies of each elixir material.

Although he has bought all the things, the spiritual stones on his body have also shrunk by more than half.

On this day, after visiting all the shops, Matthew came to the stall area.

The so-called stall area is actually a shed built in an open space with long stones placed inside.

There are people sitting behind each stone. These people must have been setting up stalls here all year round, and they didn't react much when someone came.

There are not many monks who come to the stall area to buy things. The main reason is that compared with the shops, the quality of the things here is uneven, and there are even fakes.

If you are really dissatisfied with something you buy in a store, you can go to the shopkeeper and ask for an explanation.

But here in the stall area, once you suffer a loss, you may never find the other party in your life.

There are hundreds of stalls here, and Matthew looks at each one with interest.

Although there are many stalls, the quality of the items for sale is average.

Low-grade magic weapons, ordinary elixirs, and the bodies of some monster beasts.

Most of them are these, and the truly valuable Matthew has not yet seen them.

After walking for a while, Matthew stopped in front of a stall.

The stall owner was an old man who was dozing off and woke up only when he heard the noise.

"Just take a look at whatever you want, Fellow Taoist. The price is absolutely reasonable." Seeing Matthew staring at his things non-stop, the old man said softly.

The things the old man sells are all sundries, fragments of magic weapons, ores and the like.

Matthew didn't care about these things, but after seeing these things, he immediately thought of the old man in his mind.

Back in Wangxian City, the old man would take these rags out to set up a stall every day.

After watching for a while, Matthew shook his head slightly and got ready.

"Fellow Taoist is not satisfied with these things." Seeing that Matthew was about to leave, the old man asked hurriedly.

"Nothing I need." Matthew replied softly.

"Wait a minute, I still have a few treasures." The old man rolled his eyes and said mysteriously.

After saying that, he reached out and patted the storage bag. After a flash of white light, two things appeared on the stall.

A carapace the size of a human face, apparently a turtle carapace.

A vessel in the shape of a standing bird, but the bird only has one foot.

Matthew leaned down and stared at the carapace.

There are some words engraved on the carapace, which look very ancient.

"I accidentally picked up this carapace at the bottom of the sea during an expedition. Many people I asked did not know what the words on it were. However, since words can be recorded on such a thing, it must not be It's an ordinary thing. I just don't know if my little friend is destined for this thing." The old man said with a smile after his eyes flickered.

"Boy, don't be deceived. This thing is fake. There are no words on it, just random carvings." Just when Matthew was a little moved, Wu Kun's voice rang out.

"This is obviously an old object, how could it be fake?" Matthew asked in confusion.

"I often did this kind of thing when I was young. I could tell at a glance. The bird bottle next to me is real. You can buy it." Wu Kun said with a smile.

Seeing Matthew staring at the carapace, the smile on the old man's face became deeper and deeper.

"What is this?" After Matthew raised his head, he shifted his gaze to the vessel next to him.

"This is a fire bird bottle, which can be used to store flames. This thing is a bit useless and of little use." The old man explained with a smile on his face.

"How many spirit stones?" Matthew asked lightly.

"Three...three hundred spiritual stones." The old man hesitated for a moment and then quoted the price.

However, he then said: "That piece of carapace is the Eight Hundred Spiritual Stone. If fellow Taoist buys that, this fire bird bottle will be given to fellow Taoist."

After Matthew smiled lightly, he took out a bag of spiritual stones from the storage bag and handed it to the old man.

The old man subconsciously took the spirit stone, and after he finished counting it, Matthew had already picked up the fire bird bottle.

The old man opened his mouth, and finally put the spirit stone away.

He picked up this fire sparrow bottle and kept it around for many years because it was of little use. Now that someone wants it, it is naturally the best.

After Matthew put away the fire bird bottle, he left the stall directly.

Although the three hundred spirit stones were a bit expensive, since Wu Kun said that this item was useful to him, Matthew immediately took action. If the old man temporarily increased the price, he would still be the one who suffered.
