Chapter 230 229. The deal with the jar
After a night apart, Lan En once again saw the rocky shoal protruding from the water surface in the central basin of Longquan River.
This time, he was sure that he had received a telepathic communication similar to the cone-shaped crystal Margarita gave him.
That's why other people can't hear it, so the water flow of Longquanchuan can't cover it up.
Lann struggled to dock the boat at the edge of the shallows.
"Huh - it's not the same difficulty in the rapids as in the inner lake."
Turning over and jumping, Lan stepped on the wet rocks in the shallows. He went straight to the big jar that seemed to have drifted here with the current.
The jar is made of clay, and the mouth of the jar is covered with a wooden lid.
When Lan En slowly walked in, the wooden lid suddenly opened, and a very strange, even scary hand stretched out.
Lan En couldn't help but pause in his footsteps, and until he saw that there was no unnecessary movement in the hand, he cautiously continued to approach.
It was an arm with a skeleton close to that of a human, but the skin and flesh resembled those of a squid, slug or other creature.
The palm of this hand is as big as half the mouth of the jar when it is spread out. It is completely unimaginable how the main body of the arm can be shrunk into the jar.
"Wow."
Lan En admired, there are so many strange things in Ashina.
"You want to do business with me?"
The witcher asked tentatively, and the jar seemed to become more and more excited at his approach. It even swayed slightly, and the sound of the clay jar, rocks, and wooden lids shaking was endless.
"Yes, yes, guest! As long as you give me those scales, I can exchange everything for you!"
Lan En didn't know what legend this jar had in the Ashina area, but from what he meant, it seemed like a simple transaction.
Although the Demon Hunter should be able to make a lot of money if he takes the Treasure Carp Scale back, but compared to the goods that can be exchanged for this kind of supernatural creature,
Anyway, Lan En feels that the collection of supernatural creatures is more valuable.
Money, you can make it at any time.
Anyway, for him, as long as the money is in place, there is no possibility of shortage of the magic package produced by Aretusa.
Don't you want to see what the dean has to do with him?
"If you want to do business, why don't you let people take a look at the goods?"
Lan En crossed his arms and said to the jar very critically.
The guy in the jar shook even more. Because wanting to see the goods means there is a willingness to trade.
"It's easy to say, guest. It's all easy to say!"
So that terrifying arm took out the products one by one and showed them to Lan En.
There are strange pills wrapped in paper, red gourds, scrolls and other things.
Lan En looked at these unfamiliar things, and the people in the jar introduced them to him one by one.
But after listening to it once, the witcher was only interested in two of them.
"'God Eater'? Why is the pill called this name? Is it really as effective as you say?"
Lan En asked, pointing to the pill wrapped in paper.
The guy in the jar laughed heartily, and his tone sounded sarcastic, like an aristocrat.
"It's genuine, guest. One stone is a life. It doesn't matter if you are decapitated, broken in heart, or have lost your bloodline. As long as you still have breath, 'God Eater' can restore people to their full health."
"This is made of grass and trees that grow in Ashina's extremely ancient place. Those grass and trees attract the little gods to come, and therefore receive the gods' favor. Taking this pill can be said to be eating Oh God’s grace!”
Lan En nodded slightly. He now has some understanding of the concept of gods because of his contact with the lady in the lake.
However, Japan's concept of "gods" is different. Because of the Shinto concept of "animism," even monsters and plant elves are among the gods in Japan.
"That's a really precious pill."
"Of course." The guy in the jar was extremely happy and shook the jar loudly.
"This is not only precious, it is already a masterpiece! You must know that since the dragon took root in this land, the little gods have disappeared without a trace."
Lan En's eyebrows raised as he caught the keyword in his ears.
"Did you just say, Shenlong?"
How come I can meet dragons wherever I go?
[Descendants of the Dragon] brings BUFF, right? ?
Fortunately, Lan En had already sensed that this world was somewhat unusual, so the situation was not affected by this.
"Yes, yes, guest. The foreign noble, the foreign dragon. After His arrival, where did the local little gods go? Hehe, hehehe!"
The guy in the jar spoke in a low and soothing tone, as if he was telling a horror story, with a sinister smile that contained evil intentions.
He didn't want to say it clearly at all, but just used his tone to guide the listener's reverie into the depths of darkness.
Lan En was not afraid, but he also frowned and looked at the pill that could represent 'a life'.
"Eat God" probably doesn't mean "eating God's favor". It means "eating God's corpse", right?
This pill is made from the 'corpse of God'. So where has the ‘life of God’ gone?
This foreign dragon doesn’t sound like a good person.
Immediately, Lan En sneered.
He and this dragon probably wouldn't even have a chance to meet each other, so there was no point in speculating about him.
Ashina will eventually be unified by the inner government.
If this is an evil dragon similar to that in ancient novels, then if it comes out to harm others in the future, it will naturally be the inner government that unified Japan that takes action.
With great power comes great responsibility.
"What about this one? "Floating Boat Ferry"? Selling it with just a name?"
Lan En moved his fingers, pointed at the last bundle of scrolls, and asked the jar.
"This is a book on swordsmanship."
"Swordsmanship?"
"Yes, guest. This is a move that relies on flowing movements and high frequency of attacks to defeat the enemy. It is a powerful and beautiful sword skill!"
As soon as these words came out, Lan En's originally critical eyes suddenly became firm.
If you want to say that it is powerful, then I guess I have to hesitate a bit in order to concentrate on the next [Ash Mingryu].
But you want to say it is handsome and beautiful
“Let’s talk about the price!”
Lan En quickly dug into the alchemy leather bag on his waist.
"Ah, what a generous guest! [God Eater] only requires one precious carp scale, and [Floating Boat Ferry] requires five."
As the price was announced, the demon hunter's expression suddenly dropped.
A treasure carp scale can be sold to Temeria at the price of jewelry, which can basically get 500 orens. Six coins equals three thousand!
So expensive!
"Boss, I think your price is unreasonable."
"Eh?"
The guy in the forum seemed to have never met anyone who bargained for something, and he was a little confused for a moment.
"How...how to say?"
"Look. Our transaction relies on the scale of precious carp, and the smallest unit is one. The fact that [God Eater] is priced at one by you shows that you regard it as a benchmark of value. Since it is a benchmark, then I don't have anything to do with it. It’s easy to refute, after all, it’s you who sets the price. But..."
"[Floating Ferry] is just a sword technique, and [God-Eater] is a second life! Even if there is a difference in value, it will definitely not be five times greater!"
"So, boss, your [Floating Boat Ferry] pricing is definitely unreasonable!"
Lan En took a step forward, grabbed the opponent's big hand that had a texture similar to that of squid, and spoke sincerely.
The big hand seemed to be restrained by the demon hunter, and it was frozen and did not dare to move.
