Chapter 249: The effect is not ideal, prepare for both situations

And the herb that Lin Yi was looking for was called Five Elements Grass, which was needed for all five kinds of elixirs.

It was said that at the beginning, the five kinds of elixirs used different herbs, but later, an alchemist discovered that Five Elements Grass could replace one of the herbs in the five kinds of elixirs.

At that time, Five Elements Grass was widely available in the cultivation world, and later, alchemists gradually replaced the five herbs with Five Elements Grass.

But as time went by, Five Elements Grass became less and less, and the Five Elements Grass planted had not yet reached the requirements, resulting in less and less of this herb.

That’s why Lin Yi is in this situation now.

Although the number has decreased, it’s only relative.

It’s quite difficult for him to find a needle in a haystack in the market to buy Five Elements Grass, and setting up a stall can solve this problem very well.

At this time, Lin Yi and Baishitong had already arrived at the rented stall.

As for how to attract cultivators and let more cultivators know that he is buying spiritual herbs, Lin Yi certainly would not put all his hopes on this stall.

He made preparations for both hands.

Lin Yi was seen writing in front of the stall.

"Ask for the Five Elements Grass at a high price, exchange it for elixir, or exchange it for a chance for an alchemist to refine a first-grade or second-grade elixir."

Lin Yi was very satisfied after writing it.

Looking at the words written by Lin Yi, Bai Shi Tong was a little puzzled, but thinking that Lin Yi had been to the Danfang Market before, could he also refine elixir?

Looking at Lin Yi carefully again, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Friend Lin, are you also an alchemist?"

Lin Yi originally wanted to hide it, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need, so he simply admitted it.

Lin Yi nodded and said: "I can't be called an alchemist, I just know how to refine some simple elixirs."

Although he had expected it, Bai Shi Tong was still very shocked to hear Lin Yi admit it in person. He didn't expect that he was really an alchemist.

In his eyes, most alchemists are very arrogant, but Lin Yi gave him the feeling that although he liked to tease him a little, he had no bad intentions.

So he didn't mind, and Lin Yi, as an alchemist, had never looked down on him because of his identity.

Knowing that Lin Yi was an alchemist, Lin Yi's weight in Baishitong's heart increased many times, and some pictures suddenly emerged in his mind, and Baishitong secretly made some decisions.

Baishitong said quickly: "I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Lin is really an alchemist. If I have offended you before, please forgive me."

Lin Yi smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist Bai, what do you mean by forgiveness? Since I came to Xingyue City, you have been helping me. I am grateful to you."

"Don't say such words again, otherwise I will be ashamed."

Lin Yi continued: "Fellow Daoist Bai, there is no need to change our relationship just because I can refine simpler pills. I hope you can still treat me as an ordinary cultivator."

Baishitong didn't expect that Lin Yi could still say these words after he revealed his identity as an alchemist, and his impression of Lin Yi doubled.

Baishitong knew that Lin Yi was not just saying polite words through his contact with Lin Yi, so he stopped being polite to Lin Yi, which would make him look unfamiliar.

Baishitong asked: "Then, Fellow Daoist Lin, you came to Xingyue City this time, probably for the Alchemy Conference in the near future."

Although Baishitong is not an alchemist, he is very clear about the big and small things in Xingyue City, not to mention such a big event as the Alchemy Conference.

Although Lin Yi did not come to Xingyue City for the Alchemy Conference, and before coming, he did not know the so-called Alchemy Conference at all.

The first time he knew about it was from the city gate guards.

But Lin Yi had promised Senior Xie Tian to participate in this Alchemy Conference before, so Lin Yi did not deny it.

Lin Yi nodded and said, "Yes, I will definitely attend the alchemy conference here."

The All-Knowing said, "Then I wish you to win the first place in the alchemy conference."

Lin Yi waved his hand and said, "You are joking, my alchemy level is far from the first place. I came to the alchemy conference this time mainly to learn the skills of other alchemists and hope to improve my alchemy level."

The All-Knowing did not know Lin Yi's alchemy talent, so he did not dwell on this issue.

But he still encouraged and said, "I believe you can do it."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Then I will accept your good words."

While Lin Yi and the All-Knowing were talking, no cultivator came to ask, not even to look.

Lin Yi looked at the cultivators who passed by sparsely, and writing this paragraph on the stall was his first-hand preparation.

But the current situation is not optimistic, it seems that we still have to think of other ways.

Lin Yi thought hard, but couldn't think of a good solution. He was about to ask Baishitong if he had any good ideas.

Looking at Baishitong, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Lin Yi thought to himself: "Yes, why didn't I think of Baishitong just now?"

Baishitong saw Lin Yi looking at him and asked: "Fellow Daoist Lin, what do you want?"

Originally, Lin Yi was still thinking about how to talk to Baishitong. Since he asked first, he didn't have to think about this question anymore.

Lin Yi said: "Fellow Daoist Bai, you see, we have been standing here for a while, but no cultivator came to ask, do you have any good ideas?"

Baishitong thought about it, but still shook his head and said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, I can't find a good plan for the time being."

Lin Yi said: "If you want to get the Five Elements Grass, you must first attract the cultivators and make them believe that what is written above is true."

"As long as there are cultivators coming, Lin is sure that they will be satisfied. Then, through their mouths, more and more cultivators will come, and the chance of buying the Five Elements Grass will be much greater."

Bai Shi Tong heard Lin Yi say so much, but he didn't hear what the method was, and asked: "Does Fellow Daoist Lin have any good ideas?"

Lin Yi looked at Bai Shi Tong without blinking. Although he was blocked by the cloak, Bai Shi Tong felt that Lin Yi was plotting against him.

A bad premonition came to him, but he had a certain understanding of Lin Yi.

Lin Yi said: "Maybe I still have to trouble Fellow Daoist Bai."

Hearing Lin Yi say this, Bai Shi Tong's premonition was indeed correct. If it was before, Bai Shi Tong would definitely refuse without hesitation before Lin Yi said it.

But since knowing that Lin Yi is an alchemist, many ideas and decisions have changed.

Although he knew that the matter might not be very simple, Baishitong knew that Lin Yi would not harm him.

Baishitong asked Lin Yi carefully: "What do you want me to do, fellow Daoist Lin Yi?"

After saying that, Baishitong looked at Lin Yi nervously.
