Chapter 185 The Secret History of a Powerful Nation
As the army passed, everyone stepped aside. Even some masters who looked like they were obviously at the innate level did not dare to make any rash moves. Si Tu Reading.\nCOM
In front of the army, breaking the rules is a dead end.
After waiting for half an hour, the team finally passed and the surroundings returned to normal.
The three continued to move forward.
As they passed along the way, Ye Feng saw a lot of stalls on both sides of the road. And these stalls were varied and all-encompassing, and seemed to sell everything.
He walked to a book stall and squatted down to take a look.
This stall looked unremarkable and only occupied a few feet, but it was filled with various martial arts secrets. Of course, most of them were upper-middle-grade yellow-level, a few were top-grade yellow-level or lower-grade black-level, and a very small number were middle-grade black-level secrets.
As for the higher-level upper-grade black-level, there was basically no sight of them.
Pointing casually, Ye Feng asked, "How much do these secret books cost?"
The stall owner was a warrior with strong cultivation. Ye Feng couldn't tell what level he had reached. Seeing that it was only a half-step innate middle-stage warrior asking for the price, the stall owner's expression was obviously a little cold, and replied, "Huang-level middle-grade is 100, upper-grade is 300, and top-grade is 800. Xuan-level lower-grade starts at 2,000. As for the middle-grade, each book has a different price. You can bid according to the book."
There are quite a few Xuan-level secret books on the bookstall, about ten books, and there are also five or six Xuan-level middle-grade books. In other words, the total value of this bookstall is almost 50,000 spirit stones.
Ye Feng and Huo Jing'er looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
It is worthy of being the capital of a powerful country and the best place.
A stall without even a storefront has goods worth 50,000 spirit stones. I don't know where the other party got so many secret books from.
"Buy or not, if not, don't block the stall." The other party's face darkened.
"I'll think about it." Ye Feng certainly wouldn't buy it. He had obtained quite a few secret manuals in the secret realm before, and all of them were sold at a discount to the auction house. Why would he buy these at a roadside stall?
After the two walked away, Gray Monkey said, "These roadside stalls won't have good goods. If you two young heroes want to buy high-grade martial arts, I can take you to the trading hall."
"Trading hall? Is it the market?"
"Yes, or not. The trading hall is the place with the most treasures in the capital. Sometimes there will even be masters of the virtual realm selling or buying treasures there, but not everyone is qualified to enter." Gray Monkey said.
"Is there a threshold to enter?" Ye Feng and Huo Jing'er were surprised again.
"Either a congenital martial artist, an inscription master, or a person of high wealth, with at least more than 100,000 spirit stones... Do you two want to go and have a look?"
"Forget it, this will be for next time..." Ye Feng wanted to shake his head to refuse, but seeing Huo Jing'er's eager look, he nodded and said, "Okay, take us to have a look."
Gray Monkey originally just said it casually. He also knew that it was not so easy to enter the trading hall. The entry threshold alone discouraged many people.
But he didn't expect that the two customers in front of him actually asked to go and have a look.
This made the gray monkey look happy.
Because in that case, it also showed the worth of the two people from the side. Could it be that these two boys and girls who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old were the second generation of rich people with 100,000 spirit stones? If so, as long as he served well, the reward should not be small...
"Well! Let's go to the trading hall first. It is the largest trading place in the powerful country of Xitang. There should be some things we can use. Then, go to the Inscriptionist Union to find Master Dong." Ye Feng rubbed his chin and smiled.
"Ye Feng, this is our first visit to the teacher. Do you think we should buy some gifts?" Huo Jing'er asked.
Ye Feng nodded. He did not object to Huo Jing'er's proposal. After all, Master Dong helped him a lot, and it was agreed at the beginning that he would visit him as soon as he arrived in Xitang.
It is indeed impolite to come to the door empty-handed.
"Master Dong? Are you referring to Master Dong Qishun from the Inscriptionist Union?" The gray monkey who was walking in front of them to help them lead the horse suddenly turned around with a look of respect.
"It is indeed the Inscriptionist Master, but we don't know whether his full name is Qishun." Ye Feng glanced at him and asked, "Why, do you also know Master Dong?"
"Of course, Master Dong is a master of alchemy. I'm afraid no one in our powerful country doesn't know this."
"The Inscriptionist Union holds an alchemy conference every five years. Master Dong was the first in the previous conference. Well, it has been about thirteen or fourteen years. Before that, although Master Dong had a little reputation, he was not worthy of the title of master. But since he stood out in the previous alchemy conference, he was valued by His Majesty the Lord and hired as the chief alchemist of the powerful country. In the past ten years, he has refined a lot of earth-level spiritual medicines, and now his reputation is very loud."
"It turns out that you two are Master Dong's disciples." The gray monkey stood in awe.
Ye Feng and Huo Jing'er smiled at each other, and Ye Feng pointed at Huo Jing'er and said, "She is, but I am not!"
"Master Dong begged you to be his disciple, but you didn't want to..." Huo Jing'er rolled her eyes at him, "With your mental strength and your talent for inscriptions, you really have a bright future. It's a waste for you not to specialize in inscriptions."
"Maybe. But I really have no interest in practicing inscriptions." Ye Feng shrugged.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Gray Monkey's throat seemed to be choked by something, and the look he gave them became weird.
These two people are not very old, but they are quite arrogant, and they seem unreliable.
If they were both disciples of Master Dong, Gray Monkey would believe it, but someone actually said that Master Dong asked him to be a disciple, but he didn't want to?
Hehe...
This guy is obviously too much...
Gray Monkey led the way silently in front, and after a while, he stopped in front of a wide street.
"You two, the trading hall is in front."
Hearing this, Ye Feng and Huo Jing'er slowly raised their heads and looked at the huge building that appeared in their field of vision, with surprise in their eyes.
Huo Jing'er shook her head and sighed: "It is worthy of being a powerful country market. This scale is several times larger than the largest auction house in our Tianyuan County."
Ye Feng also nodded.
Due to the limited conditions, the number of people who could pass the inspection of the guards with eyes as sharp as eagles was reduced by more than half, but even so, the flow of people was still continuous.
"It is not convenient for me to go in, so I will stay outside to watch the horses for you two. When you come out, just come here to find me."
Gray Monkey said very straightforwardly.
Ye Feng did not have to worry about him running away with the horses. If he had the courage to do so, he would not have to stay in Luoan City in the future.
