Chapter 29 The Lin Sisters Any Jindan cultivator is an absolute top figure in the world of immortal cultivation in Dayu. If a sect can produce a Jindan cultivator, it can be ranked among the first-rate sects; if a family can produce a Jindan clan member, it can be ranked among the top ten among all the immortal cultivation families in the Dayu immortal cultivation world! One can imagine how high the value of a Jindan Zhenren is. Even in the top sects and large immortal cultivation cities, a Jindan Zhenren can walk around with ease. Not to mention a small place like Nanshanfang, the foundation-building families are already the king, and several major foundation-building families control every aspect of the market. There isn’t even a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building! At least on the surface, the several foundation-building masters in Nanshanfang are all in the early stages of foundation-building. And the jade cushion in Xiao Changqing's hand now actually belonged to a Jindan Zhenren, and a great cultivator in the late Jindan stage, who used it from the Qi Refining Stage to the Sitting Stage. It can definitely be considered a personal item. Therefore, the two effects displayed on the equipment are not surprising at all.
If the material of this jade cushion was not too poor, it was only made of cold white jade. Strictly speaking, it could not be considered a magical tool of the immortal world, but an item of the mortal world. For example, some martial arts masters would practice on cold jade, which would be very helpful for the cultivation of internal breath. But for monks, it is not of much help. At most, it makes them a little more comfortable and can help them calm down quickly. If the material of this enlightenment cushion is extraordinary and it is a treasure from the world of immortal cultivation, then Xiao Changqing would not be surprised at all if three or four entries appeared after the equipment. However, in this way, the value of the cushion itself will also double, and it is impossible for it to end up in Nanshanfang and be sold on the street by casual cultivators. After taking several deep breaths, Xiao Changqing managed to suppress his excitement. He looked up at the familiar female monk in front of him and asked calmly, "Fellow Daoist, how much is this cushion?" "Fellow Daoist, you have a good eye and you really know what's good! Don't look at this cushion because it is made of ordinary jade from the mortal world. But if you look at the traces of time and frost on it, it has a long history! To be honest, this cushion came from the remains of a late-stage foundation-building master hundreds of years ago!" The female cultivator looked to be about 20 years old, with a good appearance and a pair of very smart eyes, which made her look very alert. She should also be very thick-skinned and eloquent. She could talk a lot and was very good at fooling people. It seems that it has nothing to do with the person I know. The two have very different personalities. Xiao Changqing thought to himself. The female stall owner continued to talk eloquently, "To be honest, if you only look at the material of this cushion, it may only be worth a few grains of spiritual sand. But because it was once a common item used by a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, it cannot be calculated based on the cost." "If you can come up with five low-grade spirit stones, I will reluctantly give up this cushion." Of course Xiao Changqing knew that the female stall owner was bragging. The story that it came out from the cave of a cultivator in the late foundation-building stage hundreds of years ago was completely fabricated by her to gild her own wares. But she would never know that her bragging was actually too narrow-minded. "One price, three low-grade spirit stones. I'll buy it." Xiao Changqing said with a stern face and a firm tone. Of course he knew that his bid was still too high. If he was patient and tried to bargain slowly with the female boss, he probably wouldn't get even a single spirit stone. However, Xiao Changqing was very anxious now. He wanted to equip the Enlightenment Cushion immediately to try out the effect. He was in no mood to bargain with the boss here. To him, it was like a 'magical' piece of equipment, and three low-grade spirit stones were not expensive at all! Even if it was ten times more expensive, he would buy it without hesitation.
"Three... three low-grade spirit stones?" A flash of surprise crossed the young female boss's eyes. She clearly felt as if she had been hit by unreal luck, and she even stuttered. I subconsciously agreed. But her expression changed very quickly. She was much more stable than Xiao Changqing and changed her tone in an instant, "Daoyou, you bargained too hard. You almost cut the price in half. Add a little more..." Three spirit stones were already a huge profit for her. But if you can earn a little more, why not do it? After all, these low-level cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation are all smart people, and it is very difficult to get even a grain of spiritual sand from them. Such a rich man is not often encountered, you must hold on to him! "Zi Xi." At this time, a female cultivator came from a distance and called the female stall owner's name. "Sister, wait a moment, I have a customer here." The female stall owner didn't bother to greet her, but stared at Xiao Changqing with shining eyes and continued, "I can give you less, so let's each take a step back. How about four spirit stones?" Xiao Changqing held the enlightenment cushion without letting go, but her eyes were attracted by the familiar voice. I looked in the direction of the voice and was slightly surprised. Is it such a coincidence? The visitor was Lin Ziyu, Xiao Changqing's next-door neighbor who had lived with him for many years when he lived in the shantytown. The two have never met each other since Xiao Changqing moved out of the shantytown. After all, Nanshanfang is not small, with tens of thousands of cultivators. It is indeed difficult to meet cultivators living in different cave areas and of different classes. Moreover, the night before Xiao Changqing moved out, the two had an inexplicable argument and it was very unpleasant. "It's you?" Naturally, Lin Ziyu recognized Xiao Changqing at a glance. After a moment of hesitation, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. One night when she was drunk, she took the initiative to invite Xiao Changqing to come in and sit with her. She had some inappropriate thoughts in her mind and subconsciously wanted to tease him. As a result, Xiao Changqing's unintentional words directly made her angry and she cursed. After sobering up the next day, he realized it was his fault and didn't know how to face Xiao Changqing, so he went out early in the morning without saying goodbye or apologizing to Xiao Changqing. Now that time has passed, she has gotten over her anger and loss, her mentality has changed, and she will no longer have unrealistic dreams like she did before. Hu Yuan has completely become a thing of the past, and she doesn't feel embarrassed or ashamed when she thinks back on it. Facing Xiao Changqing, after a little embarrassment, he quickly regained his composure. "Friend Xiao, long time no see." Lin Ziyu took the initiative to greet him. "Long time no see." Xiao Changqing nodded. But in my heart I was thinking that I was not mistaken, this female stall owner was indeed related to Lin Ziyu, they were actually sisters. It seems that they are biological children, otherwise they wouldn't look so similar. From certain angles, they almost look like twins. However, their personalities are quite different.
But Xiao Changqing couldn't care about the two sisters at the moment. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to buy the enlightenment cushion as soon as possible! "Then four spirit stones." After saying hello, Xiao Changqing didn't want to bargain anymore. Because in his opinion, although Lin Ziyu's personality is different from her sister's, she talks much less and has a more intellectual temperament. But she is an extremely stingy woman, and it is difficult to make a penny from her. Now that she is here, it will be even harder for me to lower the price. A few low-grade spirit stones were not much for him now. "What is worth four spirit stones? This jade cushion?" Lin Ziyu interrupted and asked, looking at the cushion in Xiao Changqing's hand. Sister Lin Zixi was full of surprise. She winked at her elder sister frantically, as if she had made a loss. She said, "Yes. Sister, this jade cushion came from the ruins of a cave residence of a great cultivator in the late foundation building stage. We bought it for more than four spirit stones... Sister, do you know this fellow Taoist? Is he your friend? If so, let's just take a loss." Lin Ziyu naturally understood what his sister meant. She looked at Xiao Changqing again, with hesitation and confusion in her eyes. She didn't expect that after just one year of not seeing each other, Xiao Changqing would become a sucker and be fooled by her sister into spending four spirit stones to buy a useless jade cushion. It seems that after becoming a talisman master in the Lingfu Pavilion, his status and identity have completely changed, and he has escaped from the ranks of the low-level casual cultivators. In her heart, she naturally wanted to cooperate with her sister in putting on a show and get the four spirit stones. But thinking back to that night a year ago... Lin Ziyu finally made a decision, holding back his heartache and said, "It won't take four spirit stones. Daoist Xiao, if you want it, just give me... a low-grade spirit stone, take it."
