Almighty Alchemist

Vol 2 Chapter 7: Transaction (below)

The epee in front of it is about seven fingers wide and about two and a half fingers thick. It is inserted into a knife holder and is as long as an adult's waist and abdomen. It can be said to be heavy and large.

On the hilt of the epee is engraved a Fengling magic array. Once this magic array is activated, it can make the epee lighter. There are several small thin buckles on the sword body. Xiu Yi waved it a little, and he could clearly hear the sharp howling when the wind passed through the small hole.

This is the usual practice of samurai, because some of the samurai's fighting spirit can make a more harsh sound through this fine hole, and those with deep fighting can even attack the opponent's brain directly with a strong sound wave, making them comatose or even die.

The sword also has some exquisite patterns engraved on it, but they are all decorative and have no special effect, but this epee is much more fancy. Xiu Yi noticed that even the brocade box next to the epee was made of fine fragrant wood, inlaid with exquisite enamel mosaics, engraved with heroes in ancient myths and legends.

"Nice epee, it is a pity that this Fengling magic array." Xiu Yi said lightly.

The warrior nearby saw that Xiu Yi waved the epee indifferently, and he knew something for a while. At this moment when Xiuyi said this, he stepped forward: "This Wind Spirit array can make this sword lighter, isn't it great?"

Xiu Yi laughed: "The power of the epee is slashing, not piercing. Its weight itself is a way to increase the power of attack. You are also a samurai, won't you understand this?"

The warrior laughed: "That's true. Matching the sword with the Fengling magic array actually weakens its slashing power. It can only use the warrior's own strength, but can no longer rely on the strength of this sword. "

The middle-aged aristocrat who came with the warrior laughed: "This weapon is specially designed for people who obviously do not have martial arts, but want to be in the limelight. Some rich children sometimes Need to show their bravery and domineering, and this epee is the best embodiment. As long as they secretly start the magic circle, it looks like they are very powerful, sometimes they can deceive many ignorant girls . "

The aristocratic middle-aged man was very funny when he talked, and showed no meaning at all. Instead, he explained in a self-deprecating manner the reason why the Fengling Method was engraved on the epee, which made people have to like it.

It's no wonder why this epee is so painstakingly involved in texture modification, and even the sword box is so exquisite, its meaning is an ornament in itself.

The old man in the shop saw that Xiu Yi seemed interested in weapons and armor, and quickly said, "If the customer wants to pick a weapon, we still have some good stock here."

Unexpectedly Xiu Yi shook his head and said, "No, I fancy this epee. It's very good. For me, it's very suitable."

"How does this weapon sell?" He asked the old man.

"One hundred King Waite," the old man answered.

This is by no means a cheap price. After all, this weapon is sold to the unskilled son-in-law, and such people are usually the least scarce.

"It's really regrettable that I didn't bring that much money with me." Xiu Yi sighed and shook her head.

This is not surprising, Xiu Yi is obviously playing around with a playful attitude, and no one will bring hundreds of King Witts with him. It's as if not many people bring tens of thousands of cash when shopping, unless he is prepared to buy some expensive item in advance.

At that time, Clarice suddenly said, "Don't you still have those three bottles of potion? It doesn't matter if you want them anyway."

Clarice noticed that Xiu's gaze at herself was clearly praising her just right interface.

Sure enough, the old man wondered: "This guest, don't you intend to leave those potions?"

"Oh." Xiuyi replied casually: "For me, these medicines don't make much sense. My vindictiveness was learned from my tutor. You know that there are many times when young people are more impulsive, sometimes different There will be some friction between the young people in the family. I used to suffer in this area, so I learned some samurai abilities, but that does not mean that I want to go to the battlefield, so I do n’t need them at all. As for These medicines are purely because this time when I collected the accounts for the family, there was a guy who did n’t pay yet, so he could only use them to pay off the debt. Oh, that ’s really a prodigal. He made the most valuable home. The things came out, but it only offset three hundred Kingwitts. Before my family knew the three potions, I thought I could dispose of them at will, anyway, I just returned the three hundred Kingwitts to the family. "

Everyone understood the meaning of Xiu Yi. Obviously, a epee that can be used for display is more practical than a few bottles of the best potion. The old man understands why the other party is unwilling to reveal the producer's name.

Neither the party selling the potion nor the aristocratic boy in front of him wants this to spread. For this aristocratic boy, if his family knew that he had secretly sold three bottles of the top potion and fattened himself, he might be severely punished for it.

The teenager obviously did not intend to tell the truth, but his love for the epee and the lack of cash bothered him with the idea of ​​selling the potion immediately. This was a wonderful opportunity, the old man realized.

The middle-aged man laughed: "I guess you must be from a very prominent family."

Xiu Zhengzheng said: "It is a shame on the family's reputation to do such a thing. Allow me to keep my family secret."

Clarice was completely impressed.

She finally understood why Xiu had been so pretentious.

This little liar, he really is a liar! He used the love of the epee as a reason, and uttered a lie that he "was not willing to say", and then used this lie to cover up the loopholes that could not leak the producer, so that the shop could buy his potion with peace of mind Don't worry about the source of the potion. It is the same lie that allows Xiuyi to keep his identity confidential, without telling anyone who he is. He deliberately revealed his aristocratic identity, which made the shopkeepers trust him more, but he could not confirm his identity.

Clarice remembers someone once saying to her: simple lies and wonderful acting can make a great scam. In contrast, even the most sophisticated deceit, without sufficient wonderful acting skills, will only make it bankrupt.

This little liar obviously understands the truth. His lies are not so clever, but the point is that he interprets everything so naturally.

First of all, the evaluation of the potion was used to attract the attention of the person here, and he paid attention to his speech. Then he showed the potion to confirm their value and effect but said that he would not sell it, in order to evoke the desire in the heart. Showing the style of his sister-in-law and showing his love for this epee, he even accidentally helped him, and made him reasonably tell the lie that had been prepared long ago, making everything like flowing water. Naturally, the shop's doubts were completely eliminated without leaving any trace of contrivance ...

No wonder this **** wants to take himself with him.

Clarice couldn't imagine who this boy was? Not only has the top potion, but also makes a simple scam so perfect ...

Oh, this little liar is home to superb tricks, no wonder he can trick his master so much, and finally steal the alchemy items. Alas, it is clear that if the shop people were to know the origin of these medicaments, and based on their relationships, they would probably contact the businessman named Killery, and eventually expose the young man's fact in Xiangye City.

Clarice finally realized one thing: this handsome-looking boy had matured her mind beyond her expectations. Not only is he proficient in business, he is also well-known. Although he is less than sixteen years old, in fact, his thinking age has far exceeded that of an average adult.

At least more mature than me, he doesn't need to show himself with the help of surface toughness. Clarice realized this with regret.

The next thing is much easier. The old man in the shop took two of the potions, and the middle-aged nobleman bought the bottle of violent potions for his samurai.

After receiving an epee, Xiu left Clarice with a full 2,000 Kimvits.

Clarice's mood at this time has changed from the regret and annoyance of rejecting the three bottles of potion to the indignation and dissatisfaction when Xiu lied.

"You little liar, you pretend to be a noble to deceive and fool everyone. These potions were stolen by you, but you sold them to the shop. If your former master found these potions in the shop, He will surely pursue it. I'm going to sue you to the Lord of the City! "Clarice taught Xiu gritted teeth.

"I guess what you really want to say is not this, Clarice, how much do you need to make me gag your mouth?"

Clarice's eyes floated into a charming glory: "Oh Fink, why have I never found you so cute?"

"Because you've only known me for less than twenty days, Clarice, tell me how much you want now?"

"half."

"It's impossible, I suggest you go ahead and sue me. But before that, I will leave you one step first. Anyway, it is a fugitive career, and it is nothing great to continue fleeing."

"That's a third." Clarice changed her mouth quickly.

"Dream." Xiu Yi hurried forward.

"Oh, a quarter, it can't be any lower. From today you do n’t have to do anything in the regiment, and you do n’t have to repay my previous debt. You can keep it until we reach the town of South Wales together. With my girls, don't you think they are cute? "Clarice said after chasing after her.

Xiuyi tilted his head and thought, "If I said that I wouldn't give you an extra son besides the twenty-five Kimvites, are you sure you would sue me?"

Clarice's expression was slightly dull.

Xiu smiled: "Your behavior is not as unscrupulous as you are, Captain Clarice."

At that moment, the cunning camouflage was unloaded, and Clarice shrugged helplessly: "Well, you won, it's strange, why do you believe that I won't sue you ... Actually, I just want to ask you to borrow money Use it only. Do you know how regretful I am now to reject these potions of you? You let me know that I am the number one fool in the world. "

"I thought my last suggestion would already help you solve your money problem."

"Yes, but that can only help us rent a venue for a limited time. The song and dance troupe is too small and lacks some necessary props. The girls' clothing should have been changed for a long time, but now it is used for sewing. .We must not let others see it. Casey ’s family is very poor. She sends a monthly amount of money to go home to help her brother and sister. Anna ’s parents are sick in bed and also need her funding. Dai Si's family owes a lot of money to others, and interest alone makes Daisy breathless; and Randy, she has been longing for a bracelet of her own, even the cheapest one. Oh, I It ’s a very useless team leader. My girls have a very bad life, but I ca n’t take care of them. So if any of them want to leave, I never stop ... Your idea gives the song and dance company a livelihood , But broke the path of the girls, I want to compensate them. But I can't afford so much money now. "

Her voice was a little low and a little sobbing, tears swirling in her eyes.

Xiu smiled softly: "Okay, Clarice, your tears moved me. I know you're telling the truth, but you don't have to act so exaggerated ... You are not as sad as you. , If you come to tears whenever you mention the situation of the girls after such a long time, then you should have committed suicide. "

Clarice gave Xiu a kick with dissatisfaction, and looked at Xiu with those tearful eyes: "At least you believe I'm right?"

"Yes, I know you haven't lied, but you're just not used to being so strong you have become so sentimental."

"Acting is my job," Clarice grinned.

It is also only at this time that the head of the group will reveal the charming nature of her woman. Xiu looked at her carefully, realizing that she was actually young. In her twenties, she would have to pick a burden for a song and dance ensemble. She must have suffered a lot.

Xiu put a bag containing 2,000 Kimvits in Clarice's hand.

Clarice froze: "I don't need that much, and you need to pay for it yourself."

"After doing what you should do, give me the rest."

The touch in front of Clarice flashed away, and she rushed to the hotel with her money bag: "I will give it back to you!" She yelled.

Looking at Clarice as if afraid of Xiu Yi's remorse and desperately fleeing, Xiu Yi couldn't help laughing.

Maybe Clarice will never understand why Xiu will still help her generously after treating Xiu that way.

Is he fancy about his beauty? It doesn't look like this. Clarice was fully aware that the young man's heart was by no means as immature as his face, on the contrary, he had a maturity that ordinary people could not reach. Use 2,000 Kimvits to win the beauty's smile? Even nobles can't be so luxurious.

In fact, to Xiuyi, the song and dance ensemble is like a happy family. Although it can not get rid of many negative feelings such as worry, sorrow, noise, etc., at least it does not have to struggle every day.

Yes, conspiracy.

Even if he left Purgatory Island, he just enlarged the circle of conspiracy and struggle, but failed to escape from the career of conspiracy and intrigue, failed to escape from hypocrisy and camouflage, failed to escape from the dark, and at any time Habits and lifestyles that give the enemy a fatal blow.

Although for him, traveling the world is his goal and alchemy is his pursuit, the Lance Empire will never let him go.

He will not take the initiative to retaliate, but he will not hide in Tibet like a mouse, day and night.

So this is destined to be a war, a forced counterattack. A war that does not require him to pursue, but will actively pursue him.

From the moment he left Purgatory Island, the war had just begun.

Although his opponents are so powerful, this does not mean that he cannot resist.

He must not only resist, but also let the Reims see his resistance, be shocked by him, and be afraid of him. Like a proud fighter, even if dead, he will fight to the end.

At this point, Raschel didn't read him wrong.

Even in an environment like Purgatory Island, how can people who have never forgotten to fight back, disappear after leaving that purgatory world?

He wouldn't do that.

This is why he can tolerate Clarice's extortion against himself. To him, at least Clarice is real, not contrived, and does not need to be carefully guarded.

In this song and dance ensemble, he can at least get the feeling of peace between people who have been away for a long time, even if it is short-lived.

Many things can only be understood when they are lost.

For Xiuyi, this peaceful feeling is perhaps the most valuable, because he has lost it for too long.
