34: The ancestral bones are used to enhance male virility; everyone has their own motives.
Qin Wushang realized he was wrong!
This black market was too big!
Too many things were for sale!
It wasn't at all what he had imagined, just a corner with a few stalls.
Finding the so-called immortal pot was truly like searching for a needle in a haystack, no different at all.
Fortunately!
The items sold in the black market were also divided into zones!
He guessed that since the System's prompt mentioned Li Wuyou came out to buy Spirit Medicine and accidentally found the immortal pot,
Then it must be in the area where Spirit Medicine was sold!
Led by Ye Hongfu, he arrived at the area with the most Spirit Medicine for sale.
"What, you want to buy Spirit Medicine?" Ye Hongfu asked curiously.
"Just looking! And picking up some to take back for a medicinal bath!" Qin Wushang nodded.
This area was also very large, with many vendors.
All the vendors had ways to change or conceal their appearance, so no one would recognize them.
Qin Wushang quickly filtered through his targets!
On the other side!
Li Wuyou, with the maid he had picked up, wandered around.
"Young Master!"
"Will your brewing method really work?" the maid asked curiously.
The old man who owned the tavern had died, and the Old Tavern's business was dismal, almost on the verge of closing!
But after her Young Master fell into the water, he seemed to have become a completely different person; he woke up knowing everything.
"Of course it will work!" Li Wuyou laughed.
"But... Young Master, the Spirit Medicine you bought is very ordinary, all first-grade and second-grade. How can that be used to brew an immortal wine that everyone in the world would want to drink?" the little maid asked curiously.
When she followed Li Wuyou, the old man from the tavern was still alive and had taken them both out to buy medicinal ingredients for brewing.
The old man always tried to pick the best ones!
Her Young Master, on the other hand, only picked the cheapest ones, and their grades weren't high.
Could this really brew wine?
She was very skeptical!
At this moment, Li Wuyou, with a touch of arrogance, uttered, "There is no wine in this world that this Wine Immortal cannot brew. You, just wait and drink it!"
"Hmph! Young Master is dreaming again! He always talks about himself being a Wine Immortal! How can there be any Wine Immortal in this world!" The maid, hearing this, was already accustomed to it.
She found that after her Young Master fell into the water, his mind became much sharper, but his bragging skills also grew.
He always told her that he was a Wine Immortal!
"You cannot be taught!"
"How can you understand the world of this Wine Immortal?!"
"Let's go!"
"This black market is so big. If we don't hurry, with your short legs, you probably won't be able to see it all."
Li Wuyou laughed heartily.
The black market was very large, and with his experience and discerning eye, he could still find treasures.
And this was his main purpose; buying Spirit Medicine was just a side trip.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, the pendant on his chest shimmered and emitted a warm sensation.
Li Wuyou was stunned for a moment!
"What!"
"Is it this way... are you guiding me because there's a treasure?" he asked in surprise, quickly walking forward.
Soon!
He arrived at a roadside stall.
"Little brother! Come and see! Come and see! Don't miss it as you pass by!" The old man, missing a front tooth, smiled like a chrysanthemum, spitting as he enthusiastically promoted his wares.
"Look at this bone! Do you know what this is? This was dug out of my family's ancestral grave!"
"My ancestors, they followed the Martial God to conquer the Five Domains as Qilin War Gods! This is a genuine Qilin toe bone! See these golden patterns? Imperial Qi!"
"Although most of the Imperial Qi has dissipated now, if you grind it into powder and soak it in water, it's for virility... ah no, it's for strengthening bones! The effect is absolutely top-notch!"
"And this Pill Furnace!" He picked up a bronze-colored furnace covered in verdigris, patted it loudly with his hand, and continued to brag, "The Medicine God's Cauldron! Ever heard of it?"
"Back then, the Medicine God used it to refine the Nine Revolutions Sacred Pill, which could make people instantly become Saints!"
"There's even the Medicine God's personal signature at the bottom of the furnace! If it weren't for my family's decline, this old man would never part with such a Divine Artifact!"
"Today, we are fated, not for nine point nine, not for nine hundred ninety-nine, but only for nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and you can take this Divine Artifact home!" The old man kept bragging, but Li Wuyou remained unmoved, carefully looking at what he wanted to see.
The little maid followed behind, her face full of disdain.
When the old man saw Li Wuyou's gaze sweep over a wine pot with a missing piece, he immediately snatched it up and vigorously wiped it with his sleeve.
"Oh, my! Little brother, you truly have a Wisdom Eye! I originally didn't want to sell this treasure!"
"This is the personal wine pot of the Ancient Wine Saint Venerable! See this missing piece?"
"Back then, the Wine Saint Venerable fought the Devil Emperor for three hundred rounds, and it was this pot that blocked a fatal blow, leaving behind this glorious mark!"
"Use it to hold water, and water turns into immortal wine; use it to grow flowers, and flowers can become spirits! Use it to hold essence... you'll also feel incredibly good!"
"I see that little brother has an extraordinary bone structure and is fated with it. How about this, if you sincerely want it, give me eight thousand eight hundred eighty-eight Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and we'll be friends!"
The wine pot was bronze-colored, and the missing piece on the side indeed looked like it was cut by a sword.
"Hmm?"
"Could it really be it that caused the qiankun immortal jade to react?" Li Wuyou was very surprised.
The runes on the immortal pot were indeed not simple, even he hadn't noticed them immediately.
But the qiankun immortal jade hanging on his chest had reacted immediately, even from such a distance.
"Young man! See anything you like?"
"If not, move along, don't disturb this old man's business!" The old man was getting a bit impatient.
He had looked for a long time but hadn't said which one he wanted, clearly showing he wasn't interested, so the old man bothered to promote it anymore.
Li Wuyou, hearing this, sneered inwardly and began to calculate.
A harmless, honest expression appeared on his face, and he spoke with a helpless and sincere tone.
"Old man, your treasures... their origins are so terrifying, my meager savings can't afford them."
He deliberately rubbed his hands, looking very embarrassed.
He casually picked up the relatively most valuable Pill Furnace, tapped it indifferently, then sniffed it under his nose, shaking his head and sighing.
"Alas, what a pity!"
"The furnace is an old item, but its fire Qi is gone, the Spirit Runes have lost their spirituality, and the Formation inside is mostly decayed."
"It's fine as an ornament, but for Alchemy... I'm afraid it can't even perfectly refine a furnace of third-grade pills."
After speaking, he put down the Pill Furnace and made to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey! Young man, wait!" The old man panicked!
It was hard enough to find a big fish, he couldn't let him get away!
"This... everyone is short on money, and my old lady had a difficult birth, so I'm also desperate for Spirit Stones. This..."
"The price is negotiable! You name a price!" Only then did Li Wuyou stop, pointing with difficulty at the Pill Furnace and the broken pot in the corner.
"How about this, I'll take this furnace back for my child to learn Alchemy techniques, and as for this broken wine pot, I'd even find it leaky as a chamber pot, so I'll just clear some inventory for you."
"Both items together, one thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones. I'll take it as a loss and make a friend out of you."
"Deal!" Li Wuyou was still expecting the old man to haggle further, but the old man agreed directly upon hearing him!
Damn it!
Even with such a discount, the old man still made a good profit!
"Old man! I'll take this Ancient Wine Saint Venerable's wine pot! I heard you say it's quite divine, can it really make flowers become spirits?" Just as the old man was about to grab the broken wine pot, a hand reached out and took the item first.
