Longevity Immortal Fate: Begins with Dao Companion

Huo Family Commercial Market.

It is an extremely lively and prosperous place.

Crowds of people, people everywhere.

The roads are divided into lanes, with stalls on both sides of the road.

There are mortal stalls selling delicious food, fine wine, and some daily necessities.

The aroma of their food can be smelled from a distance.

In the center of all the stalls are the stalls of some cultivators.

Their stalls don't have many things, but they are mostly good things.

There are talismans, elixirs, Law Weapons, and other items.

There are even some rare and precious treasures like puppets!

There are hundreds of cultivators from the Huo family, so there are still many things they can bring out.

Gu Changsheng thought for a moment, not in a hurry to buy good things, but went to the mortal stalls first.

"Boss, give me a string--two strings of candied haws, the biggest ones."

"Alright!"

"Here, boss, I'll take this pancake too."

"Two of them, right?"

"Yes."

"Alright, that'll be 50 copper coins together."

"Here's one ounce of silver, no need to give change."

"Thank you, sir. Your two wives are lucky to have such a good husband like you! This little pendant is for you, one for each of your wives."

The vendor handed over two cute little decorations.

Gu Changsheng was stunned.

Nonsense, what two wives!

He clearly only has one wife.

Buying two is just a simple act of loving everything about the family, and bringing one for Huo Feng'er as well.

He doesn't really have any thoughts about Huo Feng'er.

Really!

On the way, Gu Changsheng bought some food, toys, and cosmetics--

All in portions for two people.

"No, I need to buy a small storage bag first."

Gu Changsheng looked at his full hands and shook his head.

There's no way, all of this is to please his wife.

Gu Changsheng walked and came to the area of the cultivator stalls.

The people in the area of the cultivator stalls seemed aloof, but they were actually more enthusiastic than those mortal vendors.

"Fellow Daoist, I see that you have an immortal aura and extraordinary talent. You look like someone who will become an immortal in the future. Why not buy some elixirs from my shop? Let me tell you, the elixirs in my shop are all good things. One bottle for longevity, two bottles for eternal youth!"

"Fellow Daoist, don't listen to him bragging. His elixirs are all self-made. He's just a first-class alchemist. The elixirs he makes are no different from rubbish. Why not come to my shop? The elixirs in my shop are made by a first-class top-grade alchemist. The effects are absolutely good! Whether it's for cultivation or healing, you can find it here! I see that you are so handsome, I'll give you a 20% discount!"

"Come to my shop, I'll give you a bone fracture--50% off!"

"Fellow Daoist, elixirs are useless. Their elixirs might even be poisonous! Why not buy some self-defense items? I have some first-class top-grade talismans here. With them, you can defeat Foundation Building cultivators! Trust me, you won't be taken advantage of or deceived. You can only buy a stable sense of security!"

As soon as Gu Changsheng walked past, he was enthusiastically promoted by the nearby cultivators.

Some even approached Gu Changsheng and tried to pull him directly to their own shops to see!

There's no way, cultivation is difficult.

Without resources, it's even harder without money!

Everyone needs spirit stones. Cultivators can't work for a long time to earn spirit stones, so they can only rely on their secondary professions to make and sell things.

For those without secondary professions, they can either kill people and take their treasures, or explore the remains of other cultivators, like the Cave Mansion.

Unless they come from a noble background, the lives of ordinary cultivators are actually very difficult.

That's why they resort to crazy scams - to lure people into buying things.

With spirit stones, there is a future for cultivation.

Money is the most useful thing.

Gu Changsheng refused while looking around.

To be honest, he actually wants the things in these stalls!

But there's no way, he has no money.

He only has a little over 100 spirit stones on him right now, which is not considered wealthy.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, how much is this storage bag?" Gu Changsheng casually strolled and came to the stall of a sleazy old man.

"Sure, sure!" The sleazy old man saw a customer and his face wrinkled happily like a chrysanthemum, looking very sleazy. "Fellow Daoist, you have a discerning eye. This storage bag is absolutely a great treasure. It was made by a second-tier lower-grade refiner. Don't be fooled by its shabby appearance, the internal space is huge and can accommodate - a very large place."

Gu Changsheng immediately recognized that this old man was talking nonsense.

This storage bag looks ugly, how could it be made by a second-tier refiner, unless it was a piece of junk made by a second-tier refiner in the past.

"Enough of that, how big is it?" Gu Changsheng asked straightforwardly.

"Thirty centimeters in length, height, and width."

Gu Changsheng was speechless. "This is what you call a very large place?"

The sleazy old man smirked. "It can still hold quite a lot of things. You can say it's big or not."

"How much?" Gu Changsheng turned to leave.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, don't go, let's discuss it." The sleazy old man immediately grabbed Gu Changsheng's hand.

"How much?"

"20."

Gu Changsheng still wanted to leave.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, don't go, don't go. I'll sell it to you at a loss! I won't make any money from this deal, I'll make you a friend, how about that? You can name the price!"

Gu Changsheng held up five fingers.

"Fifteen lower-grade spirit stones?" The sleazy old man frowned and thought for a moment. "Alright, 15 it is."

Gu Changsheng smiled. "Who told you 15? Five, do you sell or not?"

"Five??" The sleazy old man exclaimed, "Fellow Daoist, you want to kill me!!! I'm already at a loss with 15 lower-grade spirit stones, let alone five!"

"Do you sell or not?" Gu Changsheng asked calmly.

The sleazy old man gritted his teeth, then handed the storage bag to Gu Changsheng. "Enough, Fellow Daoist! I find you pleasing to the eye and we have a connection. I'll sell this thing to you at a loss, let's consider it making a friend. I won't make any money!"

He spoke with righteousness, as if it were true.

Although this thing is definitely worth more than five spirit stones, it definitely wasn't made by him, most likely it was something he killed someone for or picked up somewhere.

But Gu Changsheng didn't mind, he just needed a storage bag to get by for now. When the time comes, he will definitely have money and can directly buy a storage ring!

Gu Changsheng took out five spirit stones and gave them to him.

"Thank you."

He bit his finger and a drop of blood dripped into the storage bag. With a thought, Gu Changsheng established a connection with the storage bag.

In an instant, everything in his hand entered the storage bag.

"Not bad."

Gu Changsheng nodded in satisfaction and put the storage bag into his pocket.

Now that he had obtained the storage bag, he had to go and see some props for making talismans.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, who sells the props for making talismans here?" Gu Changsheng asked the shady old man.

"You've come to the right person. I am the most knowledgeable person in the entire Huo Family Market," the shady old man said proudly. "I think you must be a first-level talisman master. If you want to buy props for making talismans, I recommend you go to Li Pan'er in the east. She is a beautiful young woman and definitely worth a look in the Huo Family!"

Gu Changsheng: ???

What the hell, he wanted props for making talismans, not some beautiful young woman - he really wasn't interested at all!

Of course, he would take a look.

"That Li Pan'er is truly a peerless beauty. Fellow Daoist, let me tell you, her looks are among the best in the Huo Family. And more importantly, her figure, ah, those legs, that waist, and the way she lowers her head... hehehe..."

"Most importantly, she is already married. A woman like her is the best, you know!"

The old man was already shady, but with this laugh, he became even shadier.

Damn thief!

A remnant of Wei Wu's style, huh.

"Fellow Daoist, I am not a lecherous person. Even if Li Pan'er is beautiful, what does it have to do with me?"

The shady old man shook his head. "Naturally, it is related. She is the most powerful talisman master in the entire Huo Family. If you want to buy props for making talismans, don't you have to find her?"

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist, where is she?" Gu Changsheng suddenly became interested.

"Go in this direction, do you see the 'Li Family Talisman Shop'? That's the one."

"Thank you."

Gu Changsheng walked away quickly.

"Young man, let me tell you something. Li Pan'er's husband, Huo Lao Ba, has been dead for many years, so she is a widow, you know. She has a huge fortune, and you, young man, are handsome. Who knows, maybe you can catch her eye. Good luck, I believe in you!"

"Youth doesn't know the allure of a rich woman, mistaking a young girl for a treasure!"

Behind him, the voice of the shady old man kept ringing.

...

"Sir, what would you like to buy?"

Entering the 'Li Family Talisman Shop', a beautiful maid came forward to greet him.

"I want to buy some props for making talismans."

The maid's eyes lit up. "Come, this way, please!"

The props for making talismans were quite expensive, and she would get a commission for selling them.

With that in mind, the maid even took the initiative to reach out her jade hand and hold Gu Changsheng's hand. "Sir, let me introduce myself to you?"

Her body was still pressed against Gu Changsheng's, and her soft parts inadvertently rubbed against his arm.

Gu Changsheng pretended that nothing had happened.

He wasn't a eunuch, and he wasn't losing out. Should he push her away?

That would be too hypocritical.

He didn't smoke or drink, so what's wrong with enjoying some beauty here?

Righteous and confident.jpg!

On the counter in front of them were many items.

There were talisman pens for making talismans, talisman paper, and even talisman sand for drawing.

Everything was available.

"May I ask, what level of talisman master are you?"

"Middle-grade of the first rank."

The maid was taken aback, then pressed closer to Gu Changsheng's body.

So young, and already a middle-grade first rank talisman master. The future is boundless!

If she marries him, it would be better than selling talismans here!

Moreover...

He is so handsome!

The maid's eyes flickered as she began to figure out how to win over Gu Changsheng.

"Sir, if you are a middle-grade first rank talisman master, I suggest you buy a top-grade first rank talisman brush. Your talent is outstanding, and it will only take a few days for you to advance to the top grade. Besides, using a top-grade first rank talisman brush to draw middle-grade first rank talismans will greatly increase the success rate."

"The tip of this black hair talisman brush is made from the hair of a level five Qi Refining demonic beast called the 'Black Hair Wild Boar.' It has a decent hardness and can draw hundreds of talismans."

The maid picked up a black talisman brush, and a faint flow of mana emanated from it. Each hair on the tip was firm and hard, like a longsword, truly made from the hair of a powerful beast.

Gu Changsheng held it in his hand and felt it. "How much does it cost?"

"Ninety low-grade spirit stones."

Gu Changsheng was slightly surprised. Indeed, top-grade items are expensive!

But the item is indeed good, unfortunately...

He can't afford it.

Ninety low-grade spirit stones can be taken out, but he still needs to buy talisman paper and talisman sand.

Damn, it's really hard without money.

He really wants to find a rich woman!

He wishes there was a powerful rich woman who could see through his strength and say to him, "Don't work hard anymore, here are tens of thousands of spirit stones, spend them as you please!"

"Sir, perhaps you didn't bring enough money?" The maid saw Gu Changsheng's embarrassed expression and guessed roughly what was going on.

But her emotional intelligence was high, and she spoke very nicely.

"This is a good treasure. I think it suits you, sir. You can really buy it."

"But I don't have money." Gu Changsheng was taken aback.

"It doesn't matter."

Suddenly, a voice that sounded somewhat charming rang out.

A woman slowly walked over from a distance, with a graceful figure and a seductive charm in every move.

The first thing that caught the eye was a pair of long legs, but unfortunately, they were covered by tight pants. However, they must be good legs compared to what was under the pants!

Then there was the slender waist... unable to see the protruding advantages below the pants.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng felt that her child would definitely not go hungry.

Finally, the most beautiful face came into view. Her skin was as white as jade, with delicate eyebrows and a touch of blush on her cheeks, like the blooming peach blossoms on a branch. Her eyes were curved and filled with various emotions, captivating anyone who looked at them.

The woman smiled at him, and it was as if thousands of flowers were blooming and all the beauties of the world were pale in comparison.

This woman...

Indeed, she is beautiful!

Huo Huang'er can be considered a great beauty among mortals, but compared to this woman, she is slightly inferior. However, they both have their own advantages.

More importantly, this woman exudes a hidden but perceptible aura of a strong cultivator.

Gu Changsheng estimated that she was in her early thirties at most, but she had the strength of the eighth level of Qi Refining!

"Madam!" The maid quickly let go of Gu Changsheng's hand and respectfully said.

Gu Changsheng confirmed that this was the owner of the entire Li family talisman shop—Li Pan'er.

The old man was right, he really needs to take a look!
