Soul travels through the world of immortality
Chapter 712: Fearless Bickering (Page 13)
After the thrilling battle with the Shadow King, Li Mingyang, Yun Xi and others finally welcomed the long-lost peaceful time. They returned to the familiar and peaceful Qingyun Town together, enjoying the hard-won peace. However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people, and on this seemingly peaceful day, a small farce is about to take place.
One day, Li Mingyang was strolling leisurely on the streets of Qingyun Town when he was suddenly stopped by a strange voice. He turned around and saw a cunning businessman looking at him with a smile. The businessman said his name was Jia Xiaotian and he came from a faraway place.
"My friend, you look very impressive, you must be an extraordinary person!" Jia Xiaotian said with a smile on his face.
Li Mingyang was a little confused, but still responded politely: "Thank you for the compliment. I am just an ordinary practitioner."
Jia Xiaotian continued to praise, "Young man, you are so modest! I have some precious magic weapons here, which are guaranteed to greatly increase your strength. Do you want to take a look?"
Li Mingyang's mind moved, thinking that maybe he could learn something from these magic weapons, so he followed Jia Xiaotian to his stall.
Jia Xiaotian enthusiastically introduced various magic weapons, speaking fluently and non-stop. However, Li Mingyang found that these magic weapons were nothing special, and some were even worse than his existing equipment.
When Li Mingyang raised the question, Jia Xiaotian smiled disapprovingly and said, "Haha, little brother, don't underestimate them. These magic weapons are carefully selected by me. They are absolutely worth the money!"
Li Mingyang couldn't help but retort: "But I don't think they are as good as you say..."
Jia Xiaotian interrupted him immediately: "Hey, little brother, take a closer look! This sword is extremely sharp and can cut steel easily. And this jade pendant can resist attacks from foreign enemies. And this cloak can make you invisible in the dark..."
Li Mingyang shook his head helplessly: "Well, even if they are as powerful as you said, what about the price?"
When Jia Xiaotian heard this, a cunning light flashed in his eyes, and he stretched out his finger to gesture a number.
Li Mingyang's eyes widened and he asked in surprise, "So expensive? Aren't you cheating me?"
Jia Xiaotian quickly explained: "No, no, no, brother, my stuff is definitely worth the price! If you don't believe me, go ask other people, they will definitely tell you that I'm right."
Of course Li Mingyang would not easily believe his words, and the two began to engage in a fierce bargaining.
Finally, after a lot of hard wrangling, Li Mingyang bought a magic weapon at a relatively reasonable price. Although this magic weapon was not as powerful as he imagined, it was at least a gain.
Looking at Jia Xiaotian's satisfied back as he left, Li Mingyang couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although this experience was a bit absurd, it also brought him a lot of fun. Perhaps in future adventures, he will meet more interesting people and things like this.
Jia Xiaotian, a businessman with great eloquence and good words, came to Qingyun Town with a bunch of strange and bizarre goods. He claimed that he was selling treasures that were "unparalleled in the world", including a magical equipment called "Escape Boots", which was said to allow people to travel thousands of miles a day and escape into the ground.
Li Mingyang became curious about the so-called "ground-entering boots" and decided to go to Jia Xiaotian's stall to find out. Seeing Li Mingyang's tall and imposing figure, Jia Xiaotian knew that he had met someone who knew the goods, so he began his sales pitch.
"My young man, I can tell from the looks of it that you are a martial arts expert. These boots are just what you want. Wearing them, you can climb mountains or sneak into enemy camps as easily as walking on flat ground!"
After hearing this, Li Mingyang's mouth curled up slightly, but he had guessed something in his heart: "Oh? So amazing, then I want to hear the price of these boots."
Jia Xiaotian rolled his eyes and held out five fingers: "No more, no less, five hundred taels of gold."
Li Mingyang pretended to be surprised: "Five hundred taels? Could there be a dragon bone hidden in the boots?"
Jia Xiaotian laughed: "Young man, you are joking. The material of these boots is from lightning-struck wood thousands of years ago, and it is refined with secret methods. It is priceless."
Li Mingyang pretended to be hesitant: "If I don't believe it, try it on. If it really allows me to escape underground, I will buy it."
Jia Xiaotian looked embarrassed, but then he smiled again: "Oh, young man, you are really a joker. You can't try these boots casually. If they are damaged, I can't afford to pay for it."
The two exchanged witty words, and the audience around them laughed and gathered around to watch. Finally, after a round of bargaining, Li Mingyang bought the boots at a reasonable price, not because he believed in its ability to burrow underground, but because he was attracted by the boots' exquisite craftsmanship and Jia Xiaotian's humor.
This dispute not only allowed Li Mingyang to gain a good collection, but also forged an indissoluble bond between him and Jia Xiaotian. Jia Xiaotian later became an indispensable think tank and partner in their journey. His business acumen and connections helped them escape danger many times.
This light-hearted episode adds a touch of life to Li Mingyang's legendary story and allows readers to see the hero's unknown humor and wisdom.
Just as Li Mingyang and Jia Xiaotian and their group were enjoying a moment of peace in Qingyun Town, a mysterious man in a black robe with his face covered by shadows appeared in front of them. He handed Li Mingyang a letter, which was sealed with mysterious runes. After Li Mingyang took the letter, he looked at the mysterious man in confusion, but the mysterious man disappeared without saying a word.
Li Mingyang opened the envelope and found a yellowed letter paper with densely written words. He read it carefully and found that the letter was from an organization called "Netherworld Cult". The tone of the letter was very serious, warning Li Mingyang not to meddle in other people's business and asking him to leave Qingyun Town as soon as possible, otherwise he would face serious consequences.
Li Mingyang frowned and thought to himself: "What is the origin of this Netherworld Cult? Why would they issue such a warning to me? Could they be related to that mysterious aura?" He showed the letter to Jia Xiaotian and others, and everyone felt uneasy.
However, Li Mingyang was not intimidated by the threats of the Netherworld Cult. Instead, he decided to continue investigating and uncover the truth behind it. He believed that as long as he found the key clues, he could solve the mystery and protect the safety of Qingyun Town. So, he led Jia Xiaotian and others to conduct an in-depth investigation into the background and purpose of the Netherworld Cult.
In the following days, they asked around for information, looking for clues about the Netherworld Cult. At the same time, Li Mingyang did not forget to practice his martial arts to deal with possible dangers. As time went by, they gradually learned about some of the Netherworld Cult's situations, but still did not find the key to solving the problem. The handwriting in the letter was simple and ancient, as if it had gone through the vicissitudes of time, revealing an ominous atmosphere that made people feel uneasy. The words seemed to hide endless secrets and dangers, which made people feel moved. The content of the letter was brief and clear, but every word was like a heavy hammer hitting people's hearts, pointing directly to the core of the problem.
"Deep in the Qingming Mountains, the seal is loosening, and the ancient demon god is about to awaken. Young hero Mingyang, this is a disaster for you and me. Please come quickly to discuss countermeasures." Just a few words, but it was like a thunderclap in his mind. The seal deep in the Qingming Mountains is loosening? The ancient demon god is about to awaken! This is undoubtedly a huge disaster. If it is not dealt with in time, the consequences will be disastrous. The "disaster for you and me" in the letter made Mingyang realize the seriousness of the matter. He must act quickly and discuss countermeasures with the sender.
