These passers-by were obviously accustomed to all kinds of seemingly strange things. They were not even interested in looking at Fang Linyan who appeared from the gate.
Fang Linyan stood on the spot and looked around. He found that most of the buildings here were the kind of two- or three-story wooden buildings from the 16th century. They looked very old, and the eaves were covered with triangular tiles. These crooked houses were crowded together. It felt like passengers holding the handrail tightly in a bus that was filled with passengers. It had a disorderly and interesting feeling.
Almost every house was an independent shop, and the signboards were all carefully designed. Under the eaves of the shop opposite Fang Linyan, there were wind lanterns that would automatically do pull-ups. The rusty signboard on the shop on the right would wipe itself with a rag.
Suddenly, Fang Linyan heard the whistle of a train entering the station. He hurriedly looked back. It turned out to be a teapot on the signboard of a shop at the back. It was spewing out steam like a prank. When it saw Fang Linyan looking over, it even blinked and deliberately sprayed a few mouthfuls of steam at him …
In these dazzling shops, Fang Linyan roughly strolled around. This was not his shopping desire, but he was doing the most basic market research and research work to see how much purchasing power the 3 gold coins he had on him was.
In the end, the answer he got was not bad. The price of an ordinary wand was 6-9 gold coins, and the price of a cup of hot cocoa was 4 silver coins (1 gold coin = 17 silver coins).
Next, Fang Linyan found a second-hand goods shop. Its name was Pragmatism. There were 2 white gloves hanging in the air at the door, holding a broom and sweeping the floor constantly. Seeing Fang Linyan standing in front of the shop for a while, one of the gloves threw the broom away, then it flew directly to Fang Linyan and stretched out its palm.
Fang Linyan was taken aback. After tentatively reaching out his palm to shake it, he felt that the white glove didn't seem to be hollow at all. It felt like a ball full of air. A soft force came from above, grabbing his right hand and shaking it a few times, which was the basic etiquette of shaking hands.
Then the white gloves flew to half a meter in front of Fang Linyan and made a gesture of invitation.
Encountering such a special reception, Fang Linyan undoubtedly felt quite novel. After he walked into the shop, he saw the white glove that led the way in front of him grab a brass bell next to it, and then directly shake it.
Amidst the sound of the bell, a woman with a black veil and dressed like a gypsy walked out from inside. Judging from her figure and skin, she was about 40 years old. She was holding a crystal ball in her hand. The woman looked up and down at Fang Linyan, then she said,
"How can I help you? Friends from afar? "
Fang Linyan shrugged and said,
"I'm just here for a stroll."
He knew that in this kind of secondhand shop, it was best not to expose his purpose because the cost of the secondhand goods purchased by the boss was very low. Therefore, it was best to buy a few items together and act as if it was up to him to sell them. In this way, the boss would sell them as soon as he made a profit on the basis of breaking even.
However, after walking around, Fang Linyan did not find anything that he was particularly interested in.
Of course, this did not mean that the things in this shop were worthless, but Fang Linyan's eyesight was not good enough. He originally thought that he could use the detection skill to "pick up the leftovers" in this place.
But obviously, the Space had already expected a similar loophole. After Fang Linyan picked up an item and tried to detect it, it prompted that the ownership of this item belonged to the shop, and he had no right to use the detection skill on it …
In the end, Fang Linyan took a fancy to a clock. The lower half of the wooden frame of this clock was missing, but the upper half could still operate. The clock face was also cracked.
Its second hand was a happy little figure jumping happily on the dial, and the minute and hour hands were represented by light.
The most important thing was that every minute, a little fairy like a flower fairy would come out from the back of the clock, holding the spring next to it and tightening it. This was quite amazing.
Fang Linyan was interested in this thing. Of course, he wanted to disassemble it and study the mystery of the magic machinery in this world. But after hearing the boss's price of 420 gold coins, he immediately realized that he was not fated to have it …
The female boss saw Fang Linyan's face showing disappointment, so she took the initiative to ask him,
"May I ask what you want?"
Fang Linyan said solemnly,
"My friend is very good at magic machinery, but his handy tool has been accidentally lost recently …"
The female boss made a sound of 'oh', then she suddenly realized,
"For this kind of highly professional tool, unless it is very cheap, we won't buy it, because it will often be kept in our hands for a long time. In this line, we are most willing to buy those valuable things that can be carried around and most people will like, such as pocket watches, lighters, necklaces, rings, and the like."
Fang Linyan nodded. In fact, these were the most common things in this shop. He was also very clear that among the things being sold, there was a very high chance that there would be a system-approved magic equipment. However, this kind of thing was bound to be very expensive, and the space would not allow you to pick up a bargain with a small capital. He could only look at the ocean and sigh.
"If only there is a way to loot this damn place …"
Fang Linyan couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart, but he quickly shook his head.
With his current strength, he was really tired of living if he wanted to make trouble here, unless he used the situation to provoke internal strife, but now Fang Linyan had no such opportunity at all.
After Fang Linyan left this shop, he no longer delayed. After asking someone, he went to the nearby Overturn Alley.
The entrance of this place was actually not difficult to find. There were 2 skull lamps hanging at the entrance of the alley, and even the environment in the alley looked gloomy and dim. Most of the alley was black magic shops. There were all kinds of things hanging on the signs. There were shriveled human heads, huge black spiders, withered human hands, sunflower plates with fake smiles, and so on.
The people walking in the alley were obviously much fewer than the people outside. All of them were wearing masks or wrapped in black mage robes. They seemed to be very worried about being seen by others.
Fang Linyan walked slowly in the alley, then he came to the Borgin Burk magic shop. Compared with other places, this place seemed to be relatively normal. There was only a smiling clown mask hanging at the door, but looking carefully, the lips of this clown mask were too bright as if it was smeared with fresh blood.
Not only that, the corners of the clown's mouth were raised too much. Fang Linyan took a closer look and saw that his big mouth was forcibly torn open by scissors.
Of course, more importantly, the base material of this mask looked very much like human skin, but Fang Linyan didn't intend to reach out and touch it to confirm the material, but he walked in directly.
As soon as he entered the door, Fang Linyan smelled an indescribable smell. It was like putting rotten leather for 4 or 5 days in a big pot. It was quite pungent.
The lights in the shop were bright, but it seemed to be to better display the goods left here:
A shriveled human hand on a cushion was placed in the center of the counter. It could be seen that the owner attached great importance to it.
Next to it was a deck of blood-stained poker cards. When Fang Linyan stared at this thing, he found that the J's head on the top blinked at him.
The opal card in the frame next to it seemed to be the only normal thing, but a clear warning was written on the label next to it:
Do not touch! – Cursed – So far, 19 Muggles have died for owning this thing.
In addition, a few lines of words were clearly written on the small blackboard next to the counter:
Buying the following spellcasting materials at a high price from now on:
Glitter powder
Maple seed
Light feather
He didn't know what pigment was used to write these lines, but it could shine with a faint phosphorescence. Yes, it was the kind of phosphorescence that drifted from the bones of the dead in the mass grave.
In the boss's seat behind the counter, there was a green-skinned goblin sitting there. It was at most 30 centimeters tall, with treacherous small eyes, thick and wrinkled green skin, and a strange necklace hanging around its neck.
This necklace seemed ordinary, but Fang Linyan was originally a very observant person. Even if he didn't enter Bullet Time, he would notice many small details, so he quickly judged that this necklace was actually composed of finger bones strung together one by one. There was a very strange aura on it, which made people feel very uncomfortable and instinctively wanted to stay away from it.
How should I put it? It was like the morgue under the pale light at midnight. Even if there were no corpses in it, no one would want to stay in it for a long time.
Seeing Fang Linyan enter the door, this little goblin didn't have the slightest intention of coming out to greet the guests. It just yawned lazily …
Fang Linyan was taken aback. He remembered very clearly that the relevant upgrade mission to trigger the Scholar title was here. It seemed that the time limit was still within 24 hours of entering this world. Why was there no reaction when he came?
However, he was also very quick-witted. He immediately took the initiative to equip the Scholar title.
Sure enough, after he did this, although other people or creatures couldn't see his way of action, this little goblin suddenly raised its eyelids, then stretched out its hand to grab this side, then opened its palm and smelled it.
Immediately afterward, this little goblin's face showed a confused expression. In the end, it looked at Fang Linyan and said,
"Hey, kid, where did you come from?"
