Interstellar journey to another world

As soon as they left the restaurant, their faces fell down, and when they looked at each other, they both felt a sense of physical pain.

A bowl of tomato, egg and beef noodles cost 450 credits, almost as much as the price of pork rib rice. This bowl cost them half a day's salary. It was too expensive!

Both of them secretly decided to go to the canteen in the future! At least the food is cheap!

The two walked out of the end of the food street and came to the material street.

Neat little houses are lined up on both sides of the street, and each house has a plaque hanging on it: [Stone Materials Store], [Star Beast Materials Store], [Centennial Materials Store]...

Good guy, the materials here are complete enough!

"Yan Fei, do you want to go shopping with me?" Mo Ci felt itchy when he saw so many material stores, and he had the urge to visit them all.

"I don't want to go. I want to go ahead and buy a space ring. How about I come back to you later?"

Seeing that he was not very interested, Mo Ci didn't say anything more, and the two separated at the street intersection.

Mo Ci started from visiting the first material store. No matter how well you learn knowledge from books, you still need to combine it with real objects.

He decided to read through all these materials first to familiarize himself with the real objects and prepare himself for the next study of mecha materials.

The first store is very large and mainly sells various stone materials. In addition to these, it also sells some fruit-based materials.

When the salesman saw Mo Ci coming in, he greeted him with a smile: "Hello, what do you want to buy? Do you want me to help you find it?"

Mo Ci nodded to this little brother and said with a smile: "I want to see stone materials."

"Okay, please follow me!"

"This is a meteorite produced in the Orake Mountains. It is a new product that has just arrived in the store."

"This blue moonstone is an excellent fusion material. Look at how transparent the texture is."

"And this piece...this piece..."

Mo Ci followed the salesman and looked through all the materials, reflecting the knowledge in his mind. After looking around for a long time, he didn't see the materials he wanted, so he bought a beautiful-looking fire cloud stone and left. Got here.

Mo Ci went from house to house and learned a lot of information, but he never encountered the spirit stone he had encountered before, and he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

He also knew in his heart that spiritual stones were hard to come by, and they were not easy to obtain. He had to build up his mentality and move on.

At this time, a small stone material store caught Mo Ci's attention.

Its store is very small, located between two large material stores. The signboards of the material stores on both sides cover it tightly, so it is easy to miss it if you don't look carefully.

Mo Ci turned around, passed the signboard, and entered the shop.

The light in the store is not good, it is a bit dim. Dozens of stones of different colors are sparsely placed on the three rectangular counters. It seems that they have not been taken care of for a long time. Every stone is dusty and dirty. Pretty.

An old man with gray hair was sitting in a recliner, squinting his eyes comfortably and listening to the babbling old records. His appearance and demeanor turned out to be very similar to his master.

Mo Ci froze on the spot, unable to tell whether it was a dream or reality for a moment, until he was awakened by the sound of an old voice.

“Kids, if you don’t think about what to buy, just leave first!”

Well.....

We haven't seen the goods clearly, are you going to drive yourself away? Is there still such a business? No wonder business is sluggish!

Mo Ci shook his head in a funny way, said nothing, and looked at all the stones.

Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a brown stone the size of a thumb, and there was a faint fluctuation in the spiritual power in his body.

this......

Mo Ci picked up the stone and examined it carefully. The next moment, his eyes widened in surprise. There was... a spiritual stone here!

He suppressed his excitement, took a deep breath, and asked the old man in a calm voice: "How much does this stone cost?"

The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at the stone, then at the handsome young man: "Fifty thousand."

"What?" Mo Ci was surprised that such a small stone was so expensive.

Does he also know what's special about this stone? Or do you just want to cheat yourself?

But I really need this stone, and there is absolutely no way I will give it up.

"Old man, this is too expensive. Can it be cheaper?"

"It's too expensive! Did you see the door? I'm leaving without seeing you."

Mo Ci choked, but he held the stone in his hand tightly and would not let go no matter what. He endured the pain and paid 50,000 credits to the old man.

When the old man saw that the credit was credited, he opened his eyes and looked at Mo Ci. His eyes narrowed with a smile, like an old fox who had stolen a chicken. He said meaningfully: "Boy, you can buy this rare treasure for 50,000 yuan, so you can enjoy it secretly!"

Mo Ci's heart suddenly flashed, and he forced a smile and said: "Isn't this just a piece of brownstone? Why is it a treasure? If I don't need it next semester, I won't buy it!"

"Haha! You know whether it's a baby or not." The old man stroked his gray beard and smiled enigmatically.

Mo Ci looked at his smile and felt as if he was being seen through. He stroked the stone with his fingers. He hesitated and asked again and again: "Is there any stone of this quality?"

"Yes, how much do you want?" The old man's eyes lit up.

Mo Ci felt happy, of course the more the merrier! As long as he has enough spiritual stones, he is expected to reach the fifth level of Qi Refining within a year.

The old man slowly sat up from the rocking chair, brushed his fingers on the space ring, and a large bag of brown stones fell to the ground.

"They're all here. You can take your pick. If you want more, I can give you a cheaper price."

Mo Ci looked at the big bundle on the ground in surprise, squatting on the ground and feeling the selection carefully.

No...no...not yet...

Mo Ci took back his hand in disappointment and put the stones back into the bag: "The quality here is very average! There is nothing I need."

"How could it be?" The old man glared at Mo Ci angrily after hearing this: "How come these qualities are not good? These are all high-quality brown stones, and you don't like any of them?"

"In this case, it's cheaper for you. Forty thousand yuan? Thirty thousand? Twenty thousand? This is the purchase price! It can't be any less!"

Well.....

Mo Ci looked at the old man who was blowing his beard and staring, and seemed to have a little understanding in his heart. This old man wouldn't treat him as a scapegoat and kill him! He deliberately said some specious things, just to make himself willing to pay a high price to buy the brownstone.

After Mo Ci understood, he felt more at ease and cleared his throat: "Old man, you just said 20,000 yuan, so the stone I just bought is so expensive, should you refund me the difference?"

"The money will be paid in full, and no refunds will be issued upon expiry. Besides, are the things you just bought the same as these?"

The old man's slender eyes narrowed, revealing a ray of light.

Mo Ci's eyelids twitched. He didn't know if the old man said this on purpose, or if he wanted to deceive himself again. This old man was too powerful. Anyway, he had obtained the spirit stone, so he had better withdraw first!

Mo Ci put the thumb-sized brown stone into the space ring, said goodbye to the old man and left the shop.

The old man looked at Mo Ci's retreating back, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, his brows furrowed, and he fell into deep thought.
