Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

"That person is the organizer of the black market. Because he wears a faceless mask every time, we call him 'faceless'."

Tang Mi explained to Gu Xing in his ear.

Gu Xing looked at it for a while and then withdrew his gaze.

Wu Lian seemed to be very popular in the black market, and people would chat with him from time to time.

But since both of them were wearing masks, they mostly talked about insignificant things.

What Gu Xing heard the most was——

"What's next?"

Therefore, Gu Xing asked.

“Are there any additional activities coming up?”

"Yes." Tang Mi nodded, "At noon, there will be an auction-like event, and every time Faceless will release some good things. This is also the prototype of this black market in the beginning."

"It is said that Wulian originally wanted to hold an auction in the market, but was banned by the Exorcists, and then it evolved into the current black market."

"Why did the Exorcist ban the auction?"

"Because this is a market!"

"The original purpose of the Exorcist Division in establishing the market was for people in each village to exchange their goods and services, and auction houses can easily cause price gouging. Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, the Exorcist Division has strictly prohibited the appearance of auction houses. .”

After listening to these words, Gu Xing had a general understanding of this.

After all, this is a country completely controlled by the official power of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they will try their best to ensure the survival of ordinary people.

Because even practitioners are mostly ordinary people.

The auction house is of no benefit to ordinary people.

Even if someone is willing to control it and send some of the more precious items to the auction house, and then use some monopoly price-raising methods, they can completely raise the price to a price that ordinary people cannot afford.

They probably thought of this possibility, so they decisively banned the auction house.

However, there is an auction house in Yucheng, but it is held by three major families.

Gu Xing raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was still early and there was still some time before noon.

Outside the camp, few people came in.

Everyone has almost arrived.

So, he said to Tang Mi.

"I'll go shopping, and you can watch these things being sold."

Gu Xing had already written down the approximate functions and prices of the items on paper at Tang Mi's request and put them together with the items.

Because all things like magic weapons need to be tested to determine their effects, but during the testing process, it is inevitable that someone will tamper with them.

In order to avoid this situation, most stalls on the black market directly introduce the goods.

After that, it was a matter of fighting and suffering.

If you like it, you pay. If you don't, you can't touch it.

"Okay, you go ahead." Tang Mi said.

Gu Xing left the stall and started shopping in the black market.

And during this visit, not to mention, there are a lot of things here that you can’t usually see in the market.

Just like the small transparent fish in front of Gu Xing.

This is not a real creature, but an energy aggregate called water spirit.

This thing has no intelligence, but it possesses pure and huge water energy.

If Gu Xing uses this to practice, he can at least advance to one level without having to find ways to remove impurities.

So, he looked at the stall owner and asked.

"How do you sell this thing?"

The stall owner looked at Gu Xing with interest, and then shouted directly.

"Ten thousand dollars!"

Hearing this, Gu Xing said no more, turned around and left.

Although this water spirit is precious, it is still not worth ten thousand dollars, and it must be cut in half at least.

He didn't even bother to check the price and was about to leave. The stall owner seemed a little anxious and shouted hurriedly.

"Wait, I'll give you a discount, how about 10% off?"

Gu Xing did not look back and continued walking.

The stall owner shouted again.

"If you think it won't work, just give me a price and sell it if it's suitable!"

At this time, Gu Xing stopped again and said in a very impatient tone.

"Three thousand, at most three thousand."

However, I didn't expect that the stall owner actually agreed as soon as he said this.

"Hey, just three thousand. If it weren't for the lack of money, I really don't want to sell it."

So simply?

Gu Xing glanced at him suspiciously, and then took a closer look at the transparent fish in the water. With his control over water energy, he could indeed feel the huge water energy in Shui Ling's body.

It should be right. Could it be that I made a mistake.

He didn't think too much, but took out three banknotes from his arms and handed them over.

Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, the pottery pot filled with water spirit fell into Gu Xing's hands.

Then, he prepared to put his hand into the clay pot to catch the water spirit.

However, when his hand touched the water, it seemed as if a layer of energy was broken, and the covered things fell into his perception.

Weird!

That's right, this water spirit has been infected by the evil spirit.

Although this trace of strange energy is very weak, it is mixed with the majestic energy and is difficult to remove by ordinary means.

No wonder the stall owners were willing to sell it when I quoted three thousand, but in fact, this water spirit was already worthless to ordinary people.

At this time, Gu Xing raised his head and wanted to talk to the stall owner.

But unexpectedly, there was no one in front of him, and the stall owner had already escaped at some point.

Gu Xing looked at this scene, silent for a moment, and then smiled helplessly.

The stall owner was so skilled at sneaking away that he disappeared without even noticing.

However, he is not at a loss.

There is a trace of strangeness mixed in the water spirit that is difficult to remove. For others, it may be highly poisonous.

But he is a trickster, so what does this trickiness mean?

So, he put Shuiling and the pottery pot into his storage bag, and at the same time took out a steamed bun and ate it slowly.

Although Gu Xing was a little unhappy about being cheated, it also gave Gu Xing an inspiration.

Most of the ordinary cultivation resources are relatively expensive, but if they are infected by the evil spirit, they will be much cheaper.

In the wilderness, weirdness is everywhere, and many resources are soaked in weirdness.

Therefore, he can completely acquire such resources to quickly pass the stage of foundation building.

So, next, he searched everywhere for such water-based cultivation resources on the black market.

Most of those who sell cultivation resources on the black market have problems, hoping to deceive each one.

After all, black market prices are often not as good as those in the market.

learn from mistakes.

This time, Gu Xing also learned well.

Every time, the price is reduced to the extreme. If you can't lower the price, you won't buy it.

In the end, a few good things were collected from him. No surprise, they were all cunning and covered up with special means.

Although the value of these things is not as good as that of Shui Ling, they are almost the same in total, and the total cost is only a thousand dollars.

Gu Xing was very satisfied. This wave of purchases was enough for him to successfully reach the fourth and fifth levels of foundation building. The only difference was his true energy.

But with the mysterious book here, true energy is not a problem.

After walking around and seeing nothing of note, Gu Xing returned to his stall.

Several artifacts were sold at the stall, and Tang Mi handed him a few banknotes.

One count, six thousand dollars.

His pockets filled with money instantly filled up again!
