Villain: Who said I came here to break off the engagement?

Arriving at the sales point set up by the Danxia Sect, a handsome man named Gu Rui squeezed through the crowd and stood in front of the table.

Several Danxia Sect disciples who were responsible for selling spiritual herbs frowned. They knew this guy. He just came two days ago to cause trouble and was driven away after causing public outrage. Why is he here again today?

The female disciple of Danxia Sect wearing alchemy clothes asked: "You are here to buy spiritual herbs, right? Are the spiritual stones ready?"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand to press the price tag on the table, nodded and said: "Please see clearly, my spiritual herbs are all clearly priced, and I won't sell any spiritual stones that are missing."

Gu Rui didn't answer. He stared at the female disciple and said in a low voice: "The world is in trouble now, and countless innocent people have died. All sects are doing their best to solve the root cause of the problem, but what about you!"

"An ordinary spiritual grass has been inflated dozens of times by you unscrupulous profiteers who monopolize resources. You deliberately drive up prices, but you know how many lives have been cut off!"

"They needed spiritual grass to survive, but they died because of your greed. Do you know how many families you have ruined?"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately resonated with many monks around who were about to run out of spiritual stones.

The price of spiritual grass is really too high, so high that the meager savings of ordinary casual cultivators can't buy it even a few times.

After surviving these few times, what will you do in the future?

To be honest, they have long been dissatisfied with the Danxia Sect. It is really hateful that an ordinary spiritual grass can be sold at such an outrageous price and make a lot of ill-gotten gains by taking advantage of the chaos in the world!

Now that Gu Rui was so excited, many casual cultivators started to support and agree.

Gu Rui listened to the denunciations of these casual cultivators. On the surface, he looked indignant and serious about the overall situation, but he sneered proudly in his heart.

After returning to the Gu clan deflated two days ago, the elders in the family came up with an idea, which aroused the resonance of the masses and jointly denounced the Danxia Sect.

Gu Rui didn't think it was very reliable at first, and he just wanted to give it a try today. Unexpectedly, the effect was pretty good, but it couldn't be called a public outcry.

Most of the monks who denounced them were casual cultivators who were running out of spiritual stones. They tried to put pressure on Danxia Sect, but this was far from enough.

The Danxia Sect is one of the six major forces in the Tianshui Ancient Territory. If you want to lower the price of the Danxia Sect, unless all the major sects join forces, you won't be able to do it with these trivial casual cultivators, and they won't even pay attention to you.

No, several Danxia Sect disciples did not panic at all when faced with the denunciation of other cultivators and treated them indifferently.

The female disciple who had just spoken out looked at Gu Rui, who was pretending to plead for the people, but actually wanted to gain benefits, and said calmly: "Master Gu, do you think it is easy to cultivate spiritual grass?"

Gu Rui snorted coldly: "Of course it's easy, otherwise why was the spiritual grass so cheap in the first place? You were just greedy and deliberately drove up the price!"

In response to his heart-wrenching words, the female disciple was not confused at all, her expression remained calm, and her tone remained calm: "You are not alchemists or pharmacists. You don't understand the art. Cultivating a spiritual grass is not as easy as you think. ”

Immediately some casual cultivators retorted loudly: "Nonsense! Spirit grass is a very common medicinal herb. It used to be often seen in high mountains and ridges. Why do you sell it so expensively!"

Another casual cultivator with a thin body and shrewd appearance said in a strange manner: "People always have to find an excuse to make money. We don't know how to make elixirs, and we have never cultivated spiritual herbs. Of course, we just take whatever they say."

The female disciple of the Danxia Sect was not an economical lamp. She nodded when she heard this and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "That's right. Of course, I, the Danxia Sect, will do whatever I say. What can you do?"

She was also aroused, showing the arrogance of a Danxia Sect disciple, and her words were extremely arrogant.

Since you can't explain things clearly with nice words, there's no need to give these people a good look.

The faces of all the cultivators darkened.

Gu Rui didn't expect that the other party's attitude would be so tough, but he was not afraid at all. He slapped his palm on the table and was about to speak when a woman's voice came from outside the crowd.

"Ignorance is not terrible. What is terrible is ignorance without knowing it."

The voice was clear and soft, and the onlookers could not help but look back. They saw a woman wearing a goose-yellow fairy skirt standing outside the crowd, and a girl wearing a goose-yellow fairy skirt swept into the hall.

Pingting's figure is slender and tall, and her waist is not too slim to hold.

Like flowers in the morning dew, pretty but not vulgar.

"Ah, she is the daughter of the Lord of Qingyun Mountain, Yue Ling!"

A monk immediately recognized the woman's identity.

The casual cultivators stepped back one after another, making way for the woman in the goose-yellow fairy skirt and the disciples of Qingyun Mountain behind her.

Gu Rui wanted to scold him, but when he turned around and saw Yue Ling, the anger in his chest disappeared and he smiled: "It turned out to be Miss Yue, but I don't know what Miss Yue just said. The Danxia Sect is driving up prices. , I am squeezing all the monks, am I wrong to say something fair for you all?"

Yue Ling glanced at him, his delicate oval face expressionless: "I have said that ignorance is not terrible, what is terrible is ignorance without knowing it."

Gu Rui frowned and snorted: "Am I ignorant? Haha, then ask Miss Yue to tell me how difficult it is to cultivate this ordinary spiritual grass, and why it is sold at such a high price!"

Yue Ling did not look at him, but turned to the monks: "Spiritual grass is indeed the most common medicinal material. As the Taoist friend just said, you can often find it in high mountains. But do you know the conditions for the growth of spiritual grass?"

All the monks looked at each other, but no one answered.

Yue Ling continued: "Spiritual grasses do not need special means to grow, they can grow naturally."

The thin, smart-looking casual cultivator asked: "Why is it difficult to cultivate spiritual grasses? Isn't this contradictory?"

Yue Ling explained with clear logic: "The prerequisite for the natural growth of spiritual grasses is that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is abundant. Spiritual grasses can breathe, and they will actively absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to help themselves grow quickly."

"But now, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is thin, so thin that it can only maintain the body functions of cultivators. How can spiritual grasses grow naturally without the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to absorb? Do you know how these spiritual grasses sold by Danxia Sect are cultivated?"

The smart-looking casual cultivator suddenly reacted and said in surprise: "Could it be spiritual stones?"

"That's right." Yue Ling spoke slowly: "Spirit stones contain spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which can be used to cultivate spiritual grasses after extraction. Every spiritual grass is made of spiritual stones. The cost is here, do you still think it's expensive?"

The cultivators were speechless.

Gu Rui's face flushed, staring at Yue Ling, feeling that he had lost face today, like an ignorant clown.

Yue Ling ignored his angry gaze, turned back and nodded to the female disciples of Danxia Sect, and then walked out of the crowd and left.

A girl approached Gu Rui, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered: "Cousin, let's go back."

Gu Rui snorted coldly and left.

He thought: "It's been more than 20 days since the head of the family sent a message to my cousin, why hasn't she come yet? It would be best if my cousin's husband could come with me, and then I can settle accounts with the woman named Yue!"
