Chapter 35 Customer, would you like to buy a candy man?

25 potential points!

Qin Jiang's eyes were filled with irrepressible joy.

However, he still suppressed his excitement and did not rush to add points.

There were too many people at the moment. According to past experience, the improvement of the Iron Arm Fist would inevitably be accompanied by changes in the physical body, and it would be a bit eye-catching here.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered the lanterns, which seemed to be held in the Shishi River Basin in the inner city.

Thinking of the Shishi River, he remembered the golden scale fish he had eaten that night.

The delicious taste was secondary, mainly because the fish seemed to contain a strange power that could increase his internal energy and increase his martial arts experience points.

He remembered that the last time he ate the golden scale fish, all martial arts increased his experience points by more than 30 points, and this was when he did not finish the whole fish.

Although the effect was worse than the medicinal bath, the medicinal bath could only be performed once every half a month, even if he had now reached the third level.

Moreover, since he had already decided to upgrade the Iron Arm Fist to the perfect state, he would not need a medicinal bath.

Moreover, if spending some silver money could save some potential points, it would still be very cost-effective.

With this thought in mind, he walked straight to the location of the Shishi River.

Not long after, he came to a small river. Looking at the small river in front of him, it was called a river, but in fact it was just a larger stream, and the widest part was no more than four meters.

This was because when Black Mountain City was built, the Shishi River in the west of the city was divided into dozens of tributaries at the entrance to the city, which was used as a source of drinking water for the population in the city.

These dozens of tributaries were almost all over Black Mountain City, until they reached the east exit of the city and converged into one place again, with a width of more than 30 meters, which was the real Shishi River, one of the sources of the Canglang River.

Walking by the river, a fresh grass smell rushed into his nose, making him feel like his pores were dilated.

Looking at both banks, there were almost no people fishing. Occasionally, there were a few naughty children using scoop nets to catch fish. People around the river basically used it as daily drinking water.

Seeing this, Qin Jiang couldn't help but sigh. People in the outer city were almost unable to eat enough, and many refugees outside the city starved to death. People in the inner city were too lazy to catch the fish right in front of them.

Shaking his head, he continued to walk along the river bank, and soon came to a small fish market.

"Fellow villager, do you have golden scale fish?" He asked an old man.

The old man selling fish raised his head and glanced at him, "Old man, where is the golden scale fish? It is a treasure of the government and is not allowed to be sold on the market. If you really want to eat it, go to the fish market at the west city gate."

"Oh, thank you, old man."

After leaving the fish market. He walked straight to the location of the west city gate, passing by a relatively wide river section on the way, which is the place where the Lantern Festival is held every July 15th.

Every year during the Lantern Festival, a fishing competition is held, and the prize is a golden scale fish king.

Not long after, Qin Jiang arrived in front of the West City Gate. He looked around and saw a large-scale fish market. He walked in and found the golden scale fish after a while.

"Shopkeeper, how much is this golden scale fish?"

He looked at the golden scale fish swimming in the water, like pieces of gold running around.

"Warrant, no sale without a warrant."

The stall owner of the fish shop was a sturdy man with a round belly, holding a wide-bladed short knife in his hand, lying on a recliner, just took a look at Qin Jiang's dress and spoke with disdain.

Qin Jiang was stunned. Do you need a warrant to buy a fish?

After thinking about it, he tried to take out the token Xu Yanran gave him.

The fat stall owner sat up after seeing the token, and stood up directly after seeing the word "Xu" on the token.

"It's the Xu family who wants it, why didn't you say it earlier! The normal price is five taels of silver per catty. If the Xu family wants it, it will be four taels! How many do you want?" The stall owner's speech speed became a few points faster.

This is the Xu family! The half of the sky in the west of the city!

"Two, please." Qin Jiang said.

"Okay!"

After a while, the stall owner tied the fish with a rope and smiled flatteringly, "A total of four and a half pounds, sixteen taels for you!"

Qin Jiang took the fish and paid the money. When he was about to leave, a golden light suddenly flashed in the corner of his eyes.

He looked over and saw that there was a water tank in the stall, which was blocked by the stall owner's recliner. A huge golden scale fish nearly half a meter long was swimming slowly in the water tank.

"What is that?"

The stall owner looked over, "Oh, you are talking about this, this is the prize of this fishing lantern festival."

"How much?" Qin Jiang asked.

The stall owner was embarrassed when he heard this, "Sir, please don't embarrass me, this is what the official wants, and I can't sell it to you."

Qin Jiang nodded slightly, said nothing more, and left.

After passing through several streets, he returned to the northern city. After walking for a while, he looked down at the golden scale fish in his hand.

These two golden-scaled fish are bigger than Li Bo's. If nothing unexpected happens, they will at least give him 100 experience points.

Although the cost-effectiveness is a bit low, this is not the time to consider this.

He tightened the fishing line and quickened his pace, but when he looked up, he suddenly felt the surroundings suddenly quiet.

He looked up and stood there in a daze, a chill rising along the coccyx to the back of his head.

The bustling Taipei City just now was now empty!

Not only were there no people, but even the stalls were gone. The huge Taipei City looked very empty, with only a layer of light mist.

Hmm? Weird?

"Customer, do you want to buy a candy man?"

A shrill voice suddenly sounded behind his ear, his eyes shone, and he suddenly turned back and punched.

"Ka~!"

Accompanied by the sound of wood breaking, a wooden cart that was as long as a person and sold candy figures was smashed by him.

The moment it was smashed, the woman in gray cloth who was standing behind the cart also disappeared, leaving only rotten wood on the ground.

"Customer, do you want to buy candy figures?"

The shrill voice sounded behind his ears again, his pupils shrank slightly, and he slowly turned his head.

The cart that was just broken appeared intact on the side of the road. The woman in gray cloth was wearing a white apron, squinting her eyes, with a gentle smile on her lips.

Qin Jiang glanced down, and the rotten wood that had just broken had disappeared.

Without hesitation, he directly passed the cart and walked quickly forward.

But at this moment, he suddenly realized that the inner city north gate that could be seen at the end of the north city just now has now turned into a road with no end in sight.

Even the houses and buildings on both sides spread out, and the farther away they were, the more unreal they felt.

"Customer, would you like to buy a candy man?"

A familiar voice sounded in front of him. He looked forward and saw the cart on the side of the road.

Looking back, he saw that the road was empty and the cart that was supposed to be behind him had disappeared.

He took a deep breath and walked to the cart.

Woo!

The rapidly swinging arm broke through the air and made a humming sound. Qin Jiang's palm was wide, and he grabbed the woman's head and slammed it to the ground.

Ka~~!

The woman's body smashed the cart directly and was smashed to the ground.

Puff!

After the sound of a balloon leaking, the woman's body shrank quickly, and then turned into a ball of white mist and dissipated.

"Customer, would you like to buy a candy man?"

A shrill voice sounded, and Qin Jiang's eyes were cold. He slowly stood up and walked to the cart that had just appeared.

"Give me the cheapest one."
