Towards Eternity
Ch 410's. Sand Soul Life & Jade Golden Sky
Weng Lou walked down the stairs, following the old grandfather of the innkeeper from behind.
With his guidance, Weng Lou continued to walk to the back of the inn, until he reached a room which was a room filled with many items covered by dusty cloths.
If viewed carefully, this room looks like a warehouse because it sees from its condition that is rather dirty and dusty.
But even so, the items inside here were neatly arranged even though Weng Lou could not see them directly because they were all covered in cloth.
He and the old grandfather of the innkeeper continued walking until he reached the end of the room, where there was an empty table that was wide enough.
Unlike the other items in the room, this table looks as clean as it has just been worn, and there is also no scum and dusty cloth covering it.
"Well, let's show me your loot. Let me set the right price for all of them."
The old grandfather suddenly opened his voice as soon as the two of them reached the front of the table.
Weng Lou was silent for a moment before finally doing what the old man said. He swung his hand on the table, and five of the ten wooden boxes that he and Shan Hu had brought from the Blood Group headquarters appeared on the table.
He did not take it all out because he had previously had time to sort it out, between the items he wanted to sell and not.
Everything he put out above was jewelry.
The weapons and some martial techniques they obtained were not issued because they would be used to build their own martial arts groups in the future. It is better to prepare everything from now on he thought.
"Hm? Is this all you want to sell?" the old man asked with a smile to Weng Lou.
His smile seemed to be able to tell that the items Weng Lou showed him were only part of everything he had.
"This old man, he already stinks of earth but he can still know many things" thought Weng Lou.
"This is all I want to sell. Other stuff.I can use it for my personal use."
Weng Lou answered honestly. He said there was no point in him lying at this moment. After all, what he told this old geezer was not a lie.
"It's up to you. Let me calculate the price first, you wait a minute," said the old man who then began to examine one by one the items that had been issued by Weng Lou on the table.
Carefully, he examined the items one by one, making Weng Lou mulau think back to whether this old geezer really had the ability to price the items he was carrying.
Not wanting to take a headache, Weng Lou also chose to go around in the room while looking at what items are there. Of course he did so secretly, he was not sure the old grandfather of this inn owner would let him.
Srrtr....
Slowly, Weng Lou picked up one of the cloths that sealed the nearby items. He saw what was behind the cloth.
But then only half the cloth was lifted, his hand immediately stopped opening the covering cloth.
Cold sweat suddenly soaked all over his body when he saw the hand of the old man of the inn who was checking the items he was carrying, already clutching tightly his hand which opened the covering cloth he was about to open.
"I'm asking you to wait, young man. Not checking my stuff." The old man spoke to Weng Lou.
Although his tone was not cold and had a killing lust, but Weng Lou could feel his soul tremble violently just because of his words.
Moreover, his hand that held Weng Lou's hand, it was very tight. Even Weng Lou could not move it at all.
Just this time Weng Lou felt a force of this magnitude directly, aside from Yi Chen whom he had seen fighting with someone during the Entrance Examination to the Northern Heavens Sect.
"This old man looks very old, but his real strength is really terrible" thought Weng Lou.
"Don't do anything stupid again, son, or he'll kill you in an instant. I can feel the strength of this person is almost the same as the former Patriarch in your Northern Heavens Sect."
Ye Lao suddenly spoke and warned Weng Lou, making Weng Lou even more surprised instead of playing.
"No, the strength of this person is still below him, but his speed is almost twice as fast as him," Qian Yu commented.
"Ma-I'm sorry..." Weng Lou tried to apologize to the old man.
He thought that it must be that the situation was currently in danger, but then what the old geezer said next instead left Weng Lou speechless.
"Why are you even apologizing? I'm not saying you can't see it, just do you intend to buy it?" the old man asked the innkeeper while smiling meaningfully to Weng Lou.
Weng Lou choked on his own breath hearing a question from him. He did not end up thinking, how did this old grandfather's mind go.
"A-Ah yeah.. sure! I want to take a look because I intend to buy it! Aye, right! buy it! Hehe...."
Although the situation did not match his expectations, Weng Lou would use it to get out of the problems he was facing.
If buying this old geezer's belongings could make his situation return as usual, and he was free from trouble, then it wasn't a big thing.
Quickly the old man threw a bag of money at Weng Lou.
Without checking it, Weng Lou immediately put it in his storage room.
"Well, so which one do you want to buy? Here I have almost all the items that are useful for martial arts," said the old grandfather of the inn owner with a happy face.
He stepped his foot, and within a second had opened all the cloths that were covering the items in the room.
Weng Lou could only be silent when he saw what was behind the shabby cloth that covered him from the dust.
All of these items, as the old grandfather of the innkeeper had said, were useful items in martial arts. There were even two items that were instantly caught by Weng Lou's eyes, and actually made him instantly turn his back.
!!!!
""That!!??""
Qian Yu and Ye Lao exclaimed in shock. What they saw was one of the two objects that Weng Lou and the others were on an adventure on Black Sand Island.
"Sand Soul of Life, and Jade Golden Sky.." said Weng Lou with a face that had smiled very wide.
"Hohoho. Until you know the names of the two things that can make two kingdoms fight each other, your knowledge is vast.
But what a pity, these two things you won't be able to buy, not even with your life for pay."
The statement from the old man made Weng Lou regain consciousness. He was not surprised to hear it, because the article one of these two objects alone would not be able to pay with all his wealth though.
He bit his lower lip and twisted his brain. These two objects, if according to their maps, are in two different places.
The Sand of Life Soul, was at a lake bottom located in the Eastern Region, the, while the Sky Golden Jade is located on a mysterious island in the Northern Region known as the Sky Island because the island mysteriously floated above the sky, with an altitude of 100 meters above the ground.
Each of these two places was already extremely dangerous, even for those in the realm of Soul Unification though. If he and the others had to go to both places, then only death would await them.
Then, he should be able to obtain these two items from the old grandfather of the owner of this inn.
"I'll do anything!" weng Lou exclaimed suddenly, making the old man of the inn silent and raising his eyebrows.
"What did you just say son?"
"Make me do anything, and I will! In exchange you have to pay me with those two things!" obviously Weng Lou with his serious face.
No other choice. His only choice was this. He could not risk his life and that of his two friends.
"Hey son, do you understand what you just said? I could have asked me to die."
"Sorry! But I can't die!"
"Heee..? Didn't you say you'd do whatever I told you to?" The old grandfather of the innkeeper began to seem interested in the statement from Weng Lou.
"Yes, I'll do anything! But I can't die either! If I die, then the people I know are sad, so I can't die."
"Hahahaha. The martial world is full of blood and death, every day there are always dead, no matter what. Now you're saying that you can't die? Don't joke, son..."
"I know that, even so. I will try my best not to die!" Weng Lou answered him firmly.
Whatever happened to Weng Lou, he had already decided not to die, at least until he could find his sister.
"Okay son, your words move me a little. As you say, I will have you do one of my orders, and of course, my payment is one jar of the Sand of Life Souls and a handful of this Sky Golden Jade of mine......"
Gleck....
Weng Lou gulped down his saliva, he was a little nervous about what this innkeeper old grandfather would tell him.
"Winning."
"???"
"Win the Free Martial Arts Tournament, which will be held in a few weeks. That's it, if you can win, then I'll give you these two."
Blinking a few times, Weng Lou tried to convince himself that he had not misheard.
"What's wrong? You scared? Then there's no need to think about getting my two precious things."
"No. I'll accept. You don't have to tell me to win, because I'm going to win it even without you telling me to."
