Martial World's
Chapter 25 - World Peace is My Duty
After Lin Xiaodong arrived at the Hundred Treasures Hall, Lin Ming was already waiting there. “Sister Lin, what items do you want to buy? Did you manage to sell all three of those symbol papers? ”
Lin Ming smiled and said, "I've had good luck and sold out."
“Tidaaaaaaak!” Lin Xiaodong shouted excessively. What fools are being used? This can also be a sign! He was a little worried and said, "Sister Lin, you sell so much, if people come looking for us in the future, they might beat us brothers ..."
Lin Ming snapped, “Huh! You really think I made some fake inscriptions to fool people?
“I'm not saying you deliberately cheated people, I'm just thinking about what happens if your inscription symbol doesn't work. If we spend a hundred taels of gold today, when the time comes, we may not be able to return the money.”.
Lin Ming smiled and shook his head, “Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem. Let's just shop.”
Lin Ming said this as soon as he stepped directly into the entrance of the Hundred Treasures Hall. Lin Xiaodong gave him a silly look. He thought that they would just meet here, and then maybe go somewhere else like the town square or some other small place to shop. He had not expected them to directly go to the Hundred Treasure Hall. This place often sold items for a few hundred or thousands of gold; it was one of the most luxurious shops in the entire Sky Fortune City.
"My brother, my dear brother, are we really going to shop here?"
“Mm. It's right here." Lin Ming said as he entered the shop. The shopkeeper somewhat recognized Lin Ming because he was also wearing ordinary clothes, and was still young and small in stature. This was a very conspicuous look, and after a bit of thought, the shopkeeper remembered that Lin Ming was a young man who had tried to sell him the inscription symbol a few days ago.
The shopkeeper immediately impatiently said, "You again, I told you that I will not take your inscription symbol."
Lin Ming also naturally recalled the owner of this Hundred Treasures shop. Initially when he visited the private shops, no shopkeeper treated him with respect. The owner of this shop is not the owner. Bosses usually have rich characters and are not often in stores. They will hire some clerks or shopkeepers to take over the store business. Of course, their salary was also related to performance, so these shopkeepers would naturally treat juniors from wealthy families with respect to earn some percentage of the profits. Lin Ming still remained salty from the experience.
Lin Ming said, "My inscription symbol is sold. I'm here today to shop.”
Sold out? The shopkeeper's eyes showed a faint touch of contempt. With his experience, this inscription symbol was not worth money. At their cost, at most it was only a few dozen taels of gold. These people are really hamlets. If he thought that a few dozen golden stories made him a rich man then that was really funny.
What a silly kid. The shopkeeper did not throw him out. The Hundred Treasure Hall did not list a rule that said only those with money were allowed to come.
Lin Ming looked at the dazzling pavilion shelves stacked high with precious materials and rare items; it was truly amazing to see. The hundred-year-old ginseng that Lin Xiaodong had bought for him could only be considered an inferior item here.
There were also rare and precious medicines, materials, master grade inscription symbols, even treasures that were several thousand gold taels.
Lin Ming casually said, "Xiaodong, is there anything you want to buy?"
Lin Xiaodong forced a smile and said, “Sister Lin, what crazy song are you singing today, ah. While there is no cost to peek, do you not see the look that the shopkeeper gave us like we were hickheads? It really makes my whole body uncomfortable.”
Lin Ming said, “He is just a small-minded fool, there is no need to care about what he thinks. If you won't choose something then I'll help you. Or you buy a flexible armor.
Lin Xiaodong shook his head like a toy. “Brother Lin, don't waste our time, if I choose something in the Hundred Treasures Hall then we won't have any money to pay and they will chase after us. Think about it. When that time comes, you will run faster, but I am a little fatter than you so I will be left behind and beaten.”
Lin Ming was unable to find the words to reply, so he said, "When am I wasting your time?"
“How many hours have you not thought of this evil plan? Ah, look at me, I am an honest and kind person, pity me.
Lin Ming laughed and undressed a little. Near his chest pocket was the edge of the gold banknote. He said, "Well, is this not money?"
Lin Xiaodong looked at the many gold banknotes in the red envelope and froze for a moment. He felt his mind go blank and his eyes slow.
"It was a banknote worth 1000 gold taels each."
It turned out to be a 1000 taels gold banknote! Moreover, he could see from his thickness that there was more than one, perhaps up to 10,000 gold taels!
Up to 10,000 taels of gold! Whatisthis?
Lin Xiaodong shorted and he swayed. “Sister Lin, are you robbing people? That's not true, even with your martial arts, you shouldn't steal so much.
Hearing Lin Xiaodong's murmur, Lin Ming's forehead was filled with black lines. Oh my God, this guy .. he reluctantly said, "I got money to sell inscriptions, you don't believe me."
“Symbol inscription? You said those three toilet paper were inscription symbols? You sell ... how much do they sell? ”
“3000 taels of gold.”
Lin Ming nodded. Lin Xiaodong was his best friend and brother. He did not want to hide anything from her, and furthermore could not hide. If he wanted to help Lin Xiaodong with some money, then he also needed it to understand what was happening. Moreover, in the future he would most likely be contacted by Qin Xingxuan, Muyi, or any other high-level person, and it was impossible to hide the truth from Lin Xiaodong.
"You're just insulting my intelligence!" Lin Xiaodong exclaimed. “You have only practiced for one month and you can make such an inscription symbol? You think I'm three years old that you can trick by thinking cabbage leaves are a rare remedy or something? ”
Lin Ming shrugged, “Facts are a fact. If you don't believe me then there's nothing I can do.”
"Sister, oh brother Lin, don't mess with me, just tell me what's going on."
Lin Ming sighed and said, "Good, I'll tell you but you have to promise me you won't say anything."
“This is a promise!” Lin Xiaodong immediately announced.
“Mm..yah, actually I have a secret mother….When I was twelve, that year my master appeared and said that my talent was good, and I had good intelligence and a great destiny. He wanted me to keep the peace of the world so he gave me the duty to do it and forced me to work as his disciple. Finally, I started learning inscription techniques with him..”.
"As if!" Lin Xiaodong felt like he had just eaten a fly. "Sister Lin, can you be serious about that?"
Lin Ming said, "I'm not lying to you, I actually have a master."
“Stop, if you have a master and studied inscriptions for many years ago why did you ask me what inscription technique is?
Lin Ming said, “My master only taught me skills and did not give me money. As for the inscription technique, although I studied it, I don't know if it is useful until you tell me, then I know that I can use it to make money ... "
"Suck!" Lin Xiaodong felt as if the world had gone mad. It's like casually taking a little kitten to be bred and fed and petted for a few years and then finding it transformed into the most beautiful woman, and then made her the daughter of a legendary clan of deposed demon emperors who happened to fall in love with her. You! It was the exact same opportunity!
"good. Well, uh. You understand now. Let's go Shopping." Lin Ming pulled Lin Xiaodong without a soul, and continued to choose flexible armor.
Lin Xiaodong was not an ambitious person and he did not like practicing martial arts. He was only diligent enough to be able to maintain his status as a direct descendant within the Lin Family. Lin Ming thought flexible armor would be good as life insurance.
"What is this flexible armor?" Lin Ming asked. The shopkeeper impatiently looked at Lin Ming and said, “This is a high-quality store treasure, the description is on the note displayed behind the table. Look at yourself.”
His words contained ridicule that mocked Lin Ming for coming to a high-quality store.
The shopkeeper had done enough business that he developed an innate ability to recognize who would buy things and who would not. When some rich and powerful figures came to the store, he would welcome them and help them, but those who did not have money would be ignored, he said, not to mention Lin Ming would not only look ordinary but had come a few days ago trying to sell him some toilet paper. A boy like this couldn't possibly have such a good character, so the shopkeeper was impatient.
Lin Ming went to the place of the flexible armor and read the description. This soft armor is made with 10,000 six-foot-long ruler flax. It had also been mixed with several thousand threads of Golden Wood Root's silkworm silk and was made from a combination of over twenty advanced crafting techniques. It cost 392 taels of gold.
This kind of excellent flexible armor was a treasure. It could withstand attacks up to the transformation of the fourth layer body. But after the fourth layer it would be easily broken, so Lin Ming did not need it. It was something much more suitable for Lin Xiaodong.
He kept looking until something caught his eye – it was the Golden Deer pill and the Soul Gatherer pellet.
Previously, Lin Ming had not taken any pills because the cost was too high.
Pills and pellets were made from combining medicinal herbs and raw materials from ferocious beasts and then refining them. It was many times better than just using medicinal herbs or ferocious beast materials. Moreover, due to its formula, it was possible to achieve an effect that neither medicinal herbs nor ferocious beast materials could achieve on their own.
Golden Deer Pills were extremely rare; they were made from a hundred year old golden deer embryo as the main ingredient and were equipped with various herbs. Golden deer are rare and more commonly found in remote mountain forests. It wasn't easy for them to be difficult, and to retrieve a golden deer embryo was as difficult as it sounded.
Since the Golden Deer Pill was purified from a deer embryo, it contained a rich and fragrant vitality. In addition they have not been contaminated by the houtian phase of the air outside the uterus. Thus it is possible to remove body impurities and encourage an increase in soul power and physical cultivation.
This type of pill was a grain the size of yellow rice worth 200 gold.
Soul Gathering Pellets also required valuable raw materials to be refined. The main ingredient was a hundred year old blood mushroom and the main effect of the pellets was to increase the absorption of soul power and speed up the cultivation of a martial artist.
This type of pellet also cost 200 gold. Even the juniors of noble families had to use their savings to purchase them.
Lin Ming stopped searching as he decided what he wanted to buy.
He turned to the shopkeeper and said, “I will take this Golden Wood Roots Silkworm Armor. Wrap it for me. I will also take six Golden Deer Pills and ten Soul Gatherer Pills, as well as the ingredients on this list. Don't miss a single one.
Lin Ming said this and took out a list that had various materials written on it. Everything is used for inscriptions. He had seen a moment ago and seen that they were all sold here.
