Chapter 31 Lynx riding on the clouds

In Baicao Hall.

Lu Xuan walked around the market and found nothing. He was not disappointed and took the opportunity to visit He Guanshi.

"Boy Lu, are you here?!"

The thin old man was looking at the account book, glanced at Lu Xuan, and ignored him.

Lu Xuan found a place to sit at random and watched several thirteen or fourteen-year-old medicine boys in Baicao Hall busy coming and going.

The collected spiritual plants need to go through several processes, and what the medicine boy did was the most superficial processing.

This doesn't have much technical content, so Baicaotang handles it generously in the hall without fear of people seeing it.

"Here, have a cup of hot tea."

Not long after, Manager He came to Lu Xuan and handed him a cup of tea with green tea floating in it.

After taking a sip of the spiritual tea, the refreshing fragrance floated into his mouth and nose, making Lu Xuan think about it for a long time.

"How is it? Are the spiritual plants growing well? If they are not up to standard, your profits will be lost a lot!"

The thin old man asked with concern.

"Not bad, the quality is better than the last batch."

Lu Xuan replied with a smile. He knew that the spiritual planting in the spiritual field was not only related to his own income, but also represented He Guanshi's face to a certain extent. After all, he was the one who introduced him to Baicao Hall.

Hearing Lu Xuan's reply, Manager He was relieved a little, and the two of them chatted casually.

Suddenly, a woman and her child hurried into the Baicao Hall.

The woman looked like she was crying, and her eyes were swollen, showing that she had been crying for a long time.

There was a trace of confusion on the child's face, his mouth opened, and he allowed the woman to hold him tightly.

The woman asked a few questions and entered the Baicao Hall. Guanshi He was worried that something would happen, so he followed her in.

After a while, he returned to the hall with a heavy face.

"A spiritual planter who has established a cooperative relationship in the hall accidentally had an accident. His family came to ask about the follow-up treatment of the spiritual plant."

"what happened?"

"It is said that several people were invited to go to a secret place to pick elixirs. As a result, they were unlucky and encountered an injured second-level monster. Two of the four people died on the spot, and the other two were seriously injured and their lives were on the line. .”

"What is the name of the spiritual planter who has established a cooperative relationship with the hall?"

When Lu Xuan heard what Guanshi He said, he couldn't help but think of Lei Fei who invited him to enter the secret realm with him some time ago.

"My name is Lei Fei, one of the two people who died. What, do you know him?"

Sure enough, Lu Xuan got confirmation from Manager He that it was Lei Fei, the spiritual planter who invited him at that time.

"At that time, they tried to invite me to explore the secret realm with them. I was worried about the spiritual plants in the spiritual field and was afraid that I would be in danger, so I didn't agree."

Lu Xuan sighed.

"Fortunately, you didn't agree, otherwise...you might be the one who encountered something 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 encounter a second-grade monster."

"Then what should we do with the spiritual plant he took over?"

"The spiritual plant master dies, and his family members are not very good at cultivating first-grade spiritual plants. According to the regulations, the hall should take over, transplant the spiritual plants, and provide certain compensation to the family members."

"It's just that it's much cheaper than mature spiritual plants. The family members came here just to beg for mercy and let the hall give her the remaining spiritual plants to plant."

Guanshi He didn't explain clearly how to deal with it, but Lu Xuan guessed it by looking at his expression.

Baicaotang is definitely focused on profit. In the face of profit, a little affection is dispensable.

He became more determined not to put himself in danger. After all, if he went out and couldn't come back, wouldn't the spiritual plants in the courtyard have to take advantage of others in vain?

After this episode, he had no idea of ​​drinking the spiritual tea. After swallowing it, he got up and left.

…

"You want forty spirit stones for such a small cloud-walking lynx? Are you crazy?"

"Fellow Taoist, this is not an ordinary cloud-walking lynx. Look at its eyes. This is a different species of lynx. The price must not be the same as usual."

While wandering around, a dispute at a stall not far away attracted Lu Xuan's attention.

With a thought in mind, Lu Xuan came to the stall and his attention was attracted by an iron cage in the corner.

The iron cage was made of unknown materials. The slender railings had thin patterns and a cold feel. Talismans were attached to the four corners of the cage to prevent the contents from escaping.

Through the gap in the railing, Lu Xuan saw a young lynx in the cage.

The lynx's fur is jet black, but its four soles are like white snow. When it stands, it seems to be stepping on four white clouds. This is probably where the word "stepping on clouds" comes from.

The two slender ears stand high, with two small tufts of white hair on the tips of the ears, growing straight like two antennas.

A pair of eyes that were as green as emeralds were extremely eye-catching, looking around coldly.

Seeing Lu Xuan's gaze, the scarred Cloud-Stepping Lynx bared its teeth and leaned forward slightly, as if it was about to fight.

"Does having beautiful eyes mean that he is a mutant? Then does Diao Chan, who is my waist, count as a mutant monk?"

A qi-training monk in front of the stall couldn't help but refute the stall owner.

No wonder he was angry. If the cloud-walking lynx cub were sold at the usual price, twenty spirit stones could easily be obtained. But this stall owner, relying on the fact that the cloud-walking lynx in front of him has strange pupils, the lion He opened his mouth and actually wanted forty spiritual stones.

"Forty spiritual stones, it can't be lower!"

The stall owner did not waver and kept sticking to the original price.

"Keep this so-called alien cloud-walking lynx for yourself! It's so beautiful, you can't get enough of it every day!"

The qi-training monk said nothing and walked away.

"Ignorance."

The stall owner laughed mercilessly.

"Fellow Taoist, may I ask how you got this cloud-walking lynx and what's going on with its pupils?"

Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded next to him, and the stall owner followed the sound. A clear and handsome young man was standing in front of the iron cage, looking at him with clear eyes.

"My companions and I worked hard to get this from the depths of a secret realm."

"The cloud-walking lynx is a first-class spiritual beast. It moves quickly, silently, and has good attack power. The cub in front of you is also different from the ordinary cloud-walking lynx. When it grows up, its eyes may have some supernatural powers."

"What do fellow Taoists think?"

"How about thirty spirit stones?"

Lu Xuan cut off a large section out of habit.

"hehe."

The stall owner crossed his arms over his chest and was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Xuan.

"Fellow Taoist said it is a heterogeneous cloud-walking lynx. I don't know what the basis is. Is it just based on its pair of green eyes?"

"You know, alien monsters are very rare, and the appearance of alien monsters in first-class monsters is rare."

"It's possible that these green eyes were only stimulated by some stimulation during the embryonic forming process, or were affected by a special aura environment. Fellow Taoist directly designated them as alien species. That would be too casual."

"Furthermore, I see that the cloud-walking lynx cub in your cage is not in very good condition. It was probably injured a lot during the capture by fellow Taoists, and it has been trapped in the cage without good treatment or treatment. Recuperate.”

"With its current condition, it's still unclear whether it can be successfully fed."

"Thirty-six spiritual stones, we can't go any lower. You have to know that we paid a heavy price to capture them."

"Thirty-two spiritual stones, I will take them directly."

Lu Xuan knew that the stall owner had been convinced by his reasons, and he was particularly fond of this cloud-walking lynx with green eyes, so he relaxed the price a little more.

"Okay, then it will be easier for you, fellow Taoist."

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 worried that he would not be able to survive if he kept it in his hands. It was already a pretty good result to be able to earn half as much as an ordinary cloud-walking lynx cub.
