Beauty and the Bodyguard

While the two were talking, the servants had finished counting the things Lin Yi brought. After making a list, Chen heihu quickly gave Lin Yi a fair price, eight hundred spirit Jade.

Lin Yi didn't have any objections to this and immediately nodded in agreement. However, what surprised him was that Chen heihu's shop allowed people to use spirit Jade cards. It was the only shop in the outer and middle streets of the market.

The spiritual Jade card was a rare, high-end item. Even Nan tianyong, who was at the peak of the late Foundation establishment stage, could not get his hands on it. The difficulty of obtaining it was evident.

As for the merchants, there were even fewer who had the right to use the spiritual Jade card. On the North Island, unless it was a Business Alliance giant like the Hong Chamber of Commerce, ordinary merchants did not have the right to do so.

From this, it could be seen that Chen heihu was not as simple as he looked on the surface. If he had a wild background, he must have a strong background. If one thought that he was just an ordinary small businessman on the outer Street and looked down on him, they might suffer a big loss.

Lin Yi changed his mind at the last minute,"Brother Chen heihu, besides the spirit beast business, are you also involved in the spirit herbs business?"

Chen heihu was slightly stunned and immediately replied,""Of course, spirit beasts and spirit herbs are not separated. It's just that I've always been focused on spirit beasts and not on spirit herbs. Why are you asking this, brother Lin?"

"I've been searching for some spirit herbs recently, but they're relatively rare and difficult to buy normally. I rarely come to the market, so I wanted to see if you could help me with this. " Lin Yi said.

He had originally planned to ask Hong Zhong for help in gathering the heart-devouring exquisite grass, but after seeing Chen heihu's power, he couldn't help but change his mind. With this guy's connections, he might be able to get the heart-devouring exquisite grass.

"I see ..." Chen heihu stroked his beard out of habit and nodded."Alright, brother Lin, write down the spirit herbs you need. I'll keep an eye out for them for you. If I encounter any, I'll take them for you. Is that okay?"

"I'm very grateful. The price is negotiable. I won't let you suffer a loss. " Lin Yi was overjoyed and immediately wrote down a series of herbs on the paper. Other than the heart-devouring exquisite grass, there were a few other less common herbs, naturally for cover.

Chen heihu glanced at it. His eyes were curious, but he didn't ask any more questions. He said directly,"Brother Lin, don't worry. Although it's not easy to find these spiritual herbs, with my connections, it shouldn't be a problem. Just wait for the good news."

The tone wasn't small, but it didn't sound out of place when it was used on Chen heihu. It was as if he was born to be this powerful. Even Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh. This guy was a strange person!

After finishing, Lin Yi walked out of Chen heihu's shop and headed towards the inner street. Fishing required a wide net. Even if he had high hopes for Chen heihu, he couldn't put all his hopes on one person. He still had to make a trip to the Hong Chamber of Commerce.

The Foundation Stage golden core was useful to all Foundation Stage cultivators, after all, so the more the heart-devouring exquisite grass was, the better it was for Lin Yi. He didn't have to worry about not being able to digest it.

On the way to the inner street, Lin Yi didn't forget to pay attention to the small shops on the outer and middle streets. These places didn't have much high-end stuff, but if he paid attention, he might have a chance to pick up something.

Some people with extensive knowledge and outstanding vision even made a living by picking up scraps. For example, Yu Zhe had done this kind of business before.

Lin Yi didn't have Yu Zhe's three years of experience in the library, and he didn't know all kinds of treasures, but he still had a damn thing with him!

No matter how many ancient books and classics Yu Zhe had read, in terms of knowledge, ten couldn't compare to one ghost.

There were so many shops in the market, and if he paid attention, he'd be able to pick something up. As expected, Lin Yi soon found an unexpected surprise in an inconspicuous roadside stall.

It was a pot of Blue Grass, called blue light grass. It was one of the more common spiritual herbs, but what caught Lin Yi's attention wasn't the blue light grass, but the black mud that no one would pay attention to.

Lin Yi wouldn't have noticed it if it wasn't for the damn thing's reminder. Compared to the normal blue light grass, this black mud was much more powerful.

It was called Pure Land. According to the ghost, this kind of soil only appeared in ancient times. It was a magical land that could breed life and spirituality. Later, due to environmental changes, Pure Land gradually became a legend. Now, no matter how much money one spent, one might not be able to find it.

What made Lin Yi's heart skip a beat was that if pure Land was used in forging, it could increase the weapon's spirituality. This kind of weapon's spirituality could only be understood, not explained.

It would not increase its attack power, nor would it increase its other special abilities. There might not be any obvious intuitive effect in the short term, but the weapon's spirituality was a mysterious thing. It would only slowly manifest its magic over time.

A weapon with a spirit and a weapon without a spirit were on two different levels.

Without intelligence, it would forever be a dead object. However, once it gained intelligence, it meant that it had infinite possibilities. Even the legendary growth-type weapon was no longer out of reach.

First the ten thousand year tree crystal, then the ancient Pure Land. Lin Yi was getting more and more interested in his meeting with the king-he couldn't wait to see what the steel staff would look like when it leveled up.

However, the most important thing right now was to buy the Pure Land first.

"Boss, how much is this blue glow grass?" Lin Yi asked, his face calm.

This kind of thing like picking up scraps was to make a fortune silently. Even if one knew that the ancient Pure Land was a treasure that could only be encountered by luck and not sought, one absolutely couldn't show any strange expression on his face.

Things like this happened quite often in the market, and every stall owner was extremely sensitive to it. If Lin Yi revealed even the slightest flaw, it could cause a lot of trouble.

The owner sized Lin Yi up and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't really remember who he was. After all, southern sky Gate and Yu Zhe's side had been giving up for the past two months, and even if he'd seen Lin er's portrait, his impression of him was a blur.

"Seven pieces of spiritual Jade!" The stall owner was too lazy to think about it and quoted the price without a second word.

Lin Yi couldn't help but smile and shake his head,"boss, you're ripping me off. Blue glow grass has some value, but it's a very common spiritual herb. You're not the only one who has it. The price is too ridiculous." (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.
