Chapter 426 Soup
Yun Ci looked at the flowers on the stall; each one was quite beautiful. She looked up and asked, "I want five hundred of them. Do you have any?"
Upon hearing this, the demon stall owner's eyes lit up, and his face beamed like a flower. "Oh! Yes, yes! I'll bring them all out for you, sir. Please take your pick!"
As he spoke, the smiling stall owner invited Yun Ci to pick flowers in the open space behind the stall.
Hehe, I'm rich! I'm rich!
The shimmering flowers that were brought out later were even more dazzling and beautiful, much better quality than those displayed on the stall.
Seeing this, Yun Ci gave the stall owner a meaningful look.
The demon stall owner smiled ingratiatingly, "Sir, I've brought them all out for you. These are all a hundred years old, and this one is even five hundred years old. You can ask around; my stall is the only one on the whole street that has a five-hundred-year-old Radiant Flower."
Yun Ci nodded, "Yes, they are indeed beautiful. I'll take them all."
As she spoke, Yun Ci turned her head and asked, "What do you guys think?"
Si Qingxuan: "If you like it, that's fine."
Gu Yan crossed his arms. "It's alright, barely."
Shen Wenchun smiled, "It is indeed very beautiful."
Chu Ziming: "You are beautiful, but in my heart you are still the most beautiful."
"Yun Ci, don't be shy, I'm just telling the truth."
"......Shut up."
The stall owner rubbed his hands together and approached Yun Ci, "This is my prized possession, so, hehehe..."
Yun Ci turned her head. "Hmm?"
The demon stall owner held up one finger, and Lion Little asked, "Could you give me an extra wood spirit ball?"
Yun Ci, “…”
The money and goods were settled.
The stall owner's immediate action of packing up and leaving after receiving the wood spirit ball almost made Yun Ci think he had been ripped off.
When Yun Ci saw the menacing gazes around him, he understood.
The stall owner wrapped the shimmering flowers and butterflies in a cloth, carried them on his shoulder, and hurried along like a thief fleeing for his life, not even noticing that two pots of flowers had fallen.
It's almost as if we're running for our lives now.
"Goodbye, sir! My name is Xiong San. I'll buy a communication device as soon as I get back. I'll add you on WeChat! From now on, I'll buy all my Radiant Flowers from here! Until... ...
After saying that, Xiong San ran away in a flash.
"Hurry up and chase him, don't let him get away!"
"Let's chase!"
"You damned bear demon, you took so much and didn't even share some with us."
Several dark figures wielding knives gave chase.
A group of demons followed behind.
Finally, there was one ghost running away, clutching his head and waving his hands, shouting, "Stop, stop! I'll buy it, I won't steal it!"
The group of people ran away like that.
Yun Ci, “…”
Will he still receive friend requests from Xiong Da, Xiong Er, and their younger brother Xiong San?
"Don't worry, that bear demon has a life-saving magic treasure on it." Su Mo looked at Yun Ci with his dark eyes.
Gu Yan also looked in the direction Xiong San had run off to, "His aura has disappeared."
Gu Yan withdrew his gaze, put his arm around Yun Ci, and said, "Let's go. If he's going to be killed, that's his fate. It's the law of the jungle."
Yun Ci's face pressed against Gu Yan's shoulder, squeezing out a lump of flesh.
Upon seeing this, the senior brothers' eyes darkened.
so cute.
Chu Ziming went berserk.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Wherever Yun Ci and his companions wandered, the demons, ghosts, and humans around them enthusiastically recommended the treasures on their stalls.
If that pool of blood hadn't vanished without a trace, they probably would have already rushed up to steal customers, given their menacing appearance.
A young woman, around sixteen or seventeen years old, with a delicate and refreshing appearance, was stirring a pot of soup in front of her with a long-handled ladle. She looked at Yun Ci, her voice ethereal.
"Would you like some soup? It's freshly made today, and it only costs one Wood Spirit Ball."
Yun Ci, "...No, I've already eaten before I came out."
The girl said, "It can be stored for a thousand years, and you can drink it whenever you want."
Yun Ci stopped in her tracks. "...Are you Lady Meng Po?"
But shouldn't Meng Po be brewing soup on the Bridge of Helplessness? Why is she brewing soup here?
The girl looked at Yun Ci walking over and smiled, "I'm not Meng Po, Meng Po is my great-great ...
Yun Ci was shocked.
It turns out that it really is related to Meng Po.
"Would you like a bowl of soup? Just one Wood Spirit Ball will do."
Yun Ci shook her head and spread her hands regretfully, "I had amnesia before, and it took me a long time to remember. I don't want to forget again. It's a pity I can't drink such delicious soup. It smells so good."
Meng Hui smiled even more sweetly after being praised, "I will never forget it. My mother-in-law's soup makes everything in the world forget its past, but my soup will make you remember your past and present lives."
As he spoke, Meng Hui couldn't help but think.
What will happen when it's her turn to go to the Bridge of Helplessness to make soup?
She's so... her mother-in-law says she can't brew the Meng Po soup (a legendary soup for forgetting past lives) because she's thinking about "holding on" instead of "letting go"...
Yun Ci handed over a ball of wood-based spiritual energy. "I'd like a bowl, thank you."
Meng Hui immediately took the wood spirit ball happily and ladled out a large bowl of soup. "Do you want to catch it?"
Yun Ci asked in confusion, "Catch?"
Meng Hui exclaimed, "What I mean is, do you want to remember your past life?"
Yun Ci shook his head. No, he bought it purely out of curiosity, and besides, it wasn't expensive, only one spirit energy ball.
The soup brewed by Meng Po's descendants would be great to put in a storage ring as a "tourist souvenir," since who knows when he'll actually drink Meng Po's soup.
"Don't you want to remember your past life?" Meng Hui asked.
Yun Ci said, "It's not that I don't want to. After all, everyone is curious. What if I was a majestic general in my past life? How cool would that be? But compared to my past life, what's most important to me now is this."
He has everything he loves now; he doesn't care about past lives or anything like that.
"Little Daddy, whether in the past life or now, you are the one I love the most!" Little Ginseng hugged Yun Ci's leg.
Little Black, "Awoooooo!"
Meng Hui glanced at the group of people next to Yun Ci, seemingly lost in thought.
After receiving the soup and thanking the others, Yun Ci looked at Chu Ziming and the others and said, "Would you like to buy a bowl? It's soup made by a descendant of Meng Po!"
Seeing this, Meng Hui quickly promoted, "It's freshly brewed today, only one Wood Spirit Ball!"
However, Chu Zimo, Si Qingxuan, Gu Yan, and others all showed little interest.
Meng Hui had no choice but to give up regretfully, waving his hand with a smile, "See you later!"
Yun Ci smiled and waved his hand, "Until we meet again."
Watching the group walk away, Meng Hui quickly took out the Wood Spirit Ball and took a deep sniff. "A sweet smell."
With this cultivation level, it can be increased again.
"I'd like a bowl of soup, please."
"You need a reason to buy soup."
"The fortune teller said that in my past life I was a pig that was killed and eaten. I'm furious and I want revenge!"
"But even though you are a pig, you were able to be reborn as a human in this life because you saved a little girl from drowning. I suggest you eat more pork when you eat pork in a couple of days."
"Thank you very much!"
Would you like more soup?
"Yes, I want to see my heroic act of saving someone..."
"You want soup too?"
"Yes, the fortune teller said I was a human in my past life. Although I am a demon now, I don't feel bad about it, but I also want to see if it's true."
Whether one is human or demon depends on one's own choices.
"Yes, yes, well said, I understand!"
......
"How many spirit stones does this cost?"
"Ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones...twenty wood spirit power balls."
"How many spirit stones does this cost?"
"Two wood elemental energy balls, hehe."
"How many spirit stones does this cost?"
"One hundred units of wood elemental power..."
"Try asking for an exorbitant price."
"Ten, ten, just ten Wood Spirit Balls."
......
"Are you going to sell it or not? Are you looking for death?"
When Gu Yan asked the price again, and the demon stall owner held up a five, indicating he wanted five wood spirit energy balls, Gu Yan finally lost his temper.
The black-skinned demon shrank back as it looked at the flames burning on Gu Yan's body, but still said, "Spirit stones are useless to me. I only need five wood spirit energy balls."
As he spoke, the black-skinned demon looked at Yun Ci.
Yun Ci yawned, pulled Gu Yan back who was about to go and beat up the demon, and gave the demon five Wood Spirit Power Balls.
"Junior brother, don't give it to him. He accepts everyone else's spirit stones, but mine are useless to him. He'd just be asking for a beating."
"Alright, alright, Fifth Brother, look, I bought it!"
"Humph!"
The group continued their stroll.
After walking around, everyone had made some purchases.
Xiaobai had the biggest gain, acquiring a thousand-year-old demon core.
Just as the group was preparing to return to Lingxiu Peak for some barbecue skewers as a late-night snack, their eyes swept across the area and looked into the shadows.
"Stop hiding, come out."
