After finally getting rid of the two girls, Lin Dong decided to go out and try his luck.
Jade Street.
There were a few black-hearted shops like Xiang Qi that Lin Dong had made friends with. Moreover, every time he came, Lin Dong would gain a lot. Now, other than the Black Jade Gourd in Leisure House, nothing else could attract Lin Dong's attention.
"Eh?"
Lin Dong was overjoyed to find that Leisure House, which had been closed for a long time, was occupied.
"Today is really a lucky day."
He hurried forward.
He pushed the door open.
Lin Dong found that everything was the same as before, as if he had just left for a while.
When the girl saw Lin Dong, her picturesque face beamed. She put her hands on her waist and bowed. "Welcome. What would you like to buy?"
"Ah, let me take a look first." Lin Dong was stunned when he saw the girl who looked like an Ethereal Fairy.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and recovered.
But they looked alike.
They were people from two different worlds.
Lin Dong quickly increased his defense in his mind.
He did not look at the girl. Instead, he glanced at the house and found that it was almost the same as before. There were three people inside.
At this moment, the three people were enjoying tea. The red-faced man from last time was there, and so was the old man with a long inner breath. However, the gentle-looking middle-aged man was not here. Instead, he was replaced by a valiant young woman with sharp eyebrows. This woman had healthy, wheat-colored skin. Her vital signs were very obvious. Her Qi and blood were several times stronger than ordinary people. The red-faced man next to her was as strong as an ox, but he was no match for her. Her sitting posture was especially proper. She must have undergone extremely strict training to be able to form such a living habit unconsciously.
This woman was the martial artist closest to the limits of the human body that Lin Dong had seen so far. Even in a resting state, her body maintained sufficient vigilance.
Hidden under the sportswear, her body contained infinite vitality.
At first glance.
She looked like a female leopard hiding in the shadows, ready to strike a fatal blow at any time.
"He should be a soldier who has received a long and high-intensity training." Lin Dong was able to determine her identity from her current position in the room, her sitting posture, her expression, and the breath of life that non-cultivators could not sense. This woman was most likely a soldier and had been to the battlefield before. At this moment, she was secretly protecting the shop owner who looked like a gentle breeze.
"…" This female soldier was also sizing up Lin Dong out of habit.
Lin Dong nodded politely at her.
But she pretended not to see it.
He lowered his head and sipped his tea.
In this world where looks were everything, Lin Dong's face's "destructive power" was actually ineffective against the military girl! In fact, in the eyes of the female soldier, Lin Dong, who had restrained his aura, had no combat power at all. He posed no threat at all. He was just an ordinary person. As for whether his face was handsome or not, it had no effect on her. What she worshipped in her heart was power, invincible power!
Seeing Lin Dong, who was full of confidence, being defeated, the shop owner was secretly amused.
She covered her mouth with her jade-like hands and snickered.
In this small room, the usually invincible handsome face could not display its normal power. The shop owner was fine, at least she was polite even if she did not look at his face. But the military girl completely ignored him, which made Lin Dong suffer a huge blow.
"This chick probably likes rich men with muscles for brains." Lin Dong viciously guessed her taste in his heart.
"Hello." The red-faced man thought that Lin Dong was greeting him, so he immediately stood up and nodded in greeting, trying to get to know this outstanding young man. He then invited, "Let's sit together. Spirit tea is rare. In the whole of Dong Mountain, there is no other place that has such good tea. Do you want to have a cup?"
"Thanks." Lin Dong was not very interested in tea.
Besides, this tea was only infused with some spiritual energy.
For ordinary people, it might be the best tea, but for him, who was used to seeing good things, it was no different from weeds in the cultivation world.
However, Lin Dong understood why the red-faced man and the others liked to drink tea so much.
Except for the taste.
This kind of tea infused with spiritual energy contained a kind of pure energy between heaven and earth, which could nourish their bodies and slightly heal their bodies that were damaged by extreme training. Ordinary people could improve their strength through high-intensity training, but there was a "human body limit" for training. If they reached the limit and continued to overdraft, it would seriously damage their bodies.
For example, the red-faced burly man and the heroic military girl both had internal injuries of various sizes in their bodies due to excessive training … These internal injuries usually wouldn't flare up, but they would slowly accumulate, and when they fully erupted, it would be the final great limit of their lives that would extinguish.
The old man who practiced inner breathing also had internal injuries.
But the number was small.
He also knew how to take care of his health, so it did not seem serious.
From Lin Dong's perspective, this old man could live for at least another 30 or 40 years. It would be easy for him to live past 100. The red-faced man had it tough. He could live for at most another 20 years. He would be happy if he could live to 70, let alone past 100. The hidden injuries in the military girl's body were the most serious. Moreover, she had cultivated some kind of external technique that was extremely domineering. She had been constantly burning her life force and forcefully overdrawing her life force. If this continued, she would probably be completely finished before she turned forty. On the surface, the military girl looked heroic and energetic. Her strength, physique, and spirit were all at their peak. But outsiders did not know that all of this was actually obtained by consuming her life.
Because the tea contained an extremely slight amount of spiritual energy, regardless of whether it was the old man who practiced neixi, the red-faced man who practiced body hardening skills, or the military girl, they all instinctively liked to drink this kind of "life-saving drink" that could heal internal injuries at the lowest level.
"Maybe this is the reason why people who practice martial arts like to drink tea!" Lin Dong had never met people who practiced martial arts before, but looking at the scene in front of him, he could only make such a judgment.
"What do you want to buy?" The shop owner secretly looked at Lin Dong. She seemed to be a little curious about him.
"Do you still remember me?" Lin Dong did not dare to look at her eyes. The more he looked at her, the more he thought of Misty Fairy.
"I do. Aren't you the one who claimed to be Zhang Shoushou's classmate from Dong Mountain University?" The shop owner's memory was superb. She remembered everything as soon as she saw Lin Dong. Of course, this was also because Lin Dong had left a deep impression on her.
"The Black Jade Gourd is still here. Do you accept gold?" Lin Dong decided to use gold to exchange for this treasure.
"Gold?" The shop owner frowned slightly.
"Yes, I don't have 10 million, but I do have gold. Can I use gold to exchange for it?" In order to exchange for this Black Jade Gourd, Lin Dong had purposely turned the one and a half ton of gold that he had previously refined into pieces of gold bricks. Although it was scary to take out bricks that were as big as bricks, it was still better than directly smashing one and a half ton of gold on someone else's counter with a "Clang Dang" sound.
"It seems a little impolite to say this, but I want to say that gold has no meaning to me. I won't exchange for this Black Jade Gourd no matter how much gold you use." The shop owner apologized to Lin Dong: "The last time I said 10 million, it was because I thought you didn't have it. I wanted to tease you, but I didn't think you would take it seriously. I'm really sorry."
"Even if I'm poor, you can't tease me like this." Lin Dong was in tears. He had painstakingly refined gold, yet no one wanted it. Was there still justice in this world?
"I'm sorry." The shop owner suddenly bit her lips, as if she had made a very important decision: "I can give the Black Jade Gourd to you, but I don't want your gold. However, I have two conditions."
"Whatever conditions you have, just say it." Lin Dong was overjoyed when he heard this. Could it be that you still want to tease me?
No problem!
Seeing that you're a cute girl, I'll let you tease me a little more.
"The first condition, I want to know what it is. What use does it have? " The shop owner looked at the Ink Jade Gourd on the counter with a hint of curiosity. Then, she raised her eyes and smiled sweetly at Lin Dong. "If this makes things difficult for you, then it's fine if you don't say."
