Chapter 31 Lynx on the Cloud
In Baicao Hall.
Lu Xuan wandered around the market, but found nothing, he was not disappointed, and took advantage of the opportunity to visit He Guanshi.
"Boy Lu, are you here?!"
The thin old man was looking at the ledger, cast a glance at Lu Xuan, and ignored it.
Lu Xuan found a place to sit at random, and watched several thirteen and fourteen-year-old medicine boys in Baicao hall bustle about, coming in and out.
The collected spiritual plants need to go through several processes, and what Yaotong did was the most superficial treatment.
There is not much technical content in this, so Baicaotang handles it generously in the hall, and is not afraid of people seeing it.
"Come, have a cup of hot tea."
Not long after, Manager He came to Lu Xuan, who had temporarily finished the work at hand, and handed him a cup of tea with tender green spiritual tea floating in it.
Taking a sip of spiritual tea into his throat, the refreshing fragrance wafted into his nose, which made Lu Xuan linger in his aftertaste.
"How is it? Is Lingzhi growing well? If it is not qualified, then you will lose a lot of interests!"
The thin old man asked concerned.
"Not bad, better quality than the last batch."
Lu Xuan replied with a smile, he knew that the spiritual plant in the Lingtian was not only about his own income, but also represented the face of Manager He to a certain extent, after all, he was the one who introduced himself into the Baicao Hall.
Hearing Lu Xuan's reply, Manager He felt relieved, and the two chatted casually.
Suddenly, a woman rushed into Baicao Hall with a child.
The woman looked weeping and her eyes were swollen, which showed that she had been crying for a long time.
The child had a daze on his face, opened his mouth, and let the woman hold him tightly.
The woman asked a few words and entered the Baicao Hall. Manager He was worried that something might happen, so he followed him in.
A moment later, he returned to the hall with a heavy face.
"There was an accident in the church with a Lingzhi teacher who established a cooperative relationship. His family members came to ask about the follow-up of Lingzhi."
"what happened?"
"It is said that several people were invited to go to a secret place to pick elixir together, but they were unlucky and encountered a wounded second-grade monster. Two of the four fell on the spot, and the other two were also seriously injured, dying. .
"What is the name of the spiritual planter who established a cooperative relationship with the hall?"
When Lu Xuan heard He Guanshi's words, he couldn't help thinking of Lei Fei who invited him to enter the secret realm some time ago.
"It's called Lei Fei, one of the two who fell, why, do you know him?"
Sure enough, Lu Xuan got confirmation from Manager He that it was the spirit planter Lei Fei who invited him at that time.
"At that time, they tried to invite me to explore the secret realm together. I was worried about the spiritual plants in the spiritual field, and I was afraid of danger, so I didn't agree."
Lu Xuan sighed.
"It's a good thing you didn't agree, otherwise... you may be added to the unexpected."
Manager He couldn't help but said.
"It can only be said that they have such a catastrophe. They have entered the secret realm of countless monks, and they can actually meet a second-grade monster."
"Then what should he do with the Ling Zhi he took over?"
"Master Lingzhi died, and his family members are not very good at cultivating first-grade Lingzhi. According to the regulations, the hall should take over, transplant the Lingzhi, and give some compensation to the family."
"It's just that compared with mature spiritual plants, it's much cheaper. The family members came here this time to plead for mercy and let the hall give her the remaining spiritual plants to plant."
Guan He didn't say clearly how to deal with it, but Lu Xuan also guessed seven or eight points from his expression.
Baicaotang is definitely based on interests. In front of interests, a little affection is dispensable.
He became more determined not to take risks with himself. After all, if he went out and couldn't come back, wouldn't the Lingzhi in the courtyard have to take advantage of others?
After this episode, he didn't even have the idea of drinking spiritual tea, so he got up and left after swallowing the whale.
"You want forty spirit stones for such a small cloud-walking lynx? Are you crazy?"
"Fellow Daoist, this is not an ordinary Tayun lynx. Look at its eyes, it is a heterogeneous lynx. The price must not be the same as usual."
While wandering around, the dispute at the booth not far away attracted Lu Xuan's attention.
With a thought in mind, Lu Xuan came to the booth, and his attention was attracted by an iron cage in the corner.
I dont know what material the iron cage is made of. The slender railings have fine patterns, giving off a cold look. Talismans are attached to the four corners of the cage to prevent the things inside from escaping.
Through the gap in the railing, Lu Xuan saw a young lynx inside the cage.
Lynx's fur is jet-black, except for the four soles of its feet that look like white snow. When standing, it seems to be stepping on four white clouds, which is probably where the word "stepping on the clouds" comes from.
Two slender ears stand tall, with two small tufts of white hairs on the tips of the ears, which grow straight, like two antennas.
A pair of emerald green pupils are extremely focused, looking around coldly.
Seeing Lu Xuan's gaze, the scarred Tayun lynx bared her teeth, leaned forward slightly, and made a posture of about to fight.
"Is it because I have good-looking eyes that I am a heterogeneous? Then, if I, Diao Chan, have a waistline, am I considered a heterogeneous monk?"
A qi training monk in front of the stall couldn't help but refute the stall owner.
It's no wonder that he was angry. If the cloud-walking lynx cub was at the usual price, he could easily get twenty spirit stones. He opened his mouth wide and wanted forty spirit stones.
"Forty spirit stones, it can't be lower!"
The stall owner remained unwavering and insisted on the original price.
"You keep this so-called heterogeneous cloud stepping lynx for yourself! It's so beautiful, you can see it every day!"
The qi training monk left behind a sentence and walked away.
"I don't know the goods."
The stall owner sneered mercilessly.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask how did this cloud stepping lynx come about, and what happened to its pupils?"
Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded from the side. The stall owner followed the sound and saw a clear and handsome young man standing in front of the iron cage, looking at him with clear eyes.
"This is me and my companions, after all the hard work, we got it from the depths of a secret realm."
"The cloud stepping lynx is a first-grade spirit beast. It moves swiftly, silently, and has a good attack power. The young beast in front of me is different from the ordinary stepping cloud lynx. When it grows up, its eyes may have a little magic."
"How do fellow Taoists feel?"
"How about thirty spirit stones?"
Lu Xuan habitually chopped off a large portion.
"hehe."
The stall owner put his arms around his chest and didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Xuan.
"Fellow Daoist said that it is a different species of stepping cloud lynx. I don't know the basis for it. Is it just because of its pair of green eyes?"
"You must know that heterogeneous monsters are very rare, and it is rare for first-grade monsters to appear different species."
"This pair of green pupils may just be stimulated during the embryonic formation process, or be affected by a special aura environment. It would be too arbitrary for fellow Taoists to directly classify them as heterogeneous."
"Besides, I see that the cloud-walking lynx cub in your cage is not in a very good condition. It is estimated that it suffered a lot of damage during the capture process of fellow Taoists, and it has been trapped in the cage for a long time. It cannot receive good treatment and follow-up. Rest."
"In its current state, it is still unknown whether it can be successfully fed."
"Thirty-six spirit stones, it can't be lowered. You must know that we paid a high price for catching them."
"Thirty-two spirit stones, I will take them directly."
Lu Xuan knew that the stall owner had been persuaded by his own reasons, and he was particularly fond of this cloud-riding lynx with green eyes, so he relaxed the price a bit.
"Okay, then it will be cheaper for you, Fellow Daoist."
The stall owner gritted his teeth and finally agreed.
He also knew in his heart that the possibility of it being a different species was extremely low, and he was afraid that he would not be able to support it if he kept it in his hand. It was already a pretty good result to be able to earn half as much as the ordinary cloud stepping lynx cub.
