Chapter 151: Strange Aura
He said to Xu Meiniang: "Didn't you say you know a bit about tea art?"
"I have some second-grade Green Jade Tea here, which has a relatively obvious effect of refreshing the mind. I don't know if it will help your spiritual injuries. Do you want to brew some and try the effect?"
Xu Meiniang was overjoyed when she heard this. She had been tortured enough by this spiritual injury these past few days. Her head would ache from time to time, making it inconvenient to do anything; it was truly too uncomfortable.
And as long as she concentrated, her head would ache, especially the cultivation effect, which was very poor.
Hearing the master say this, no matter if it was effective or not, she definitely had to try it.
She hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for your consideration, Master. Little Maid wants to try it."
Lin Guangcheng nodded, took out the tea set and a small box of Green Jade Tea, and let Xu Meiniang brew the tea herself.
Lin Guangcheng sat on the side to watch. Compared with Chen Zi Ya, he found that her craftsmanship didn't have the pleasing-to-the-eye, smooth-flowing feeling of Chen Zi Ya's.
However, fortunately, she looked quite good, and her tea art was much stronger than Lin Guangcheng's. At the very least, it still looked quite comfortable.
Xu Meiniang respectfully sent a cup of spirit tea to Lin Guangcheng: "Master, please have some tea!"
Lin Guangcheng nodded, picked it up and smelled it. It was still the smell of Green Jade Tea, maybe a bit more fragrant than what he brewed!
He took a sip and nodded. It was indeed much better than what Lin Guangcheng brewed himself.
He glanced at her and praised: "Your craftsmanship is not bad, much stronger than mine. You should also taste it and see if it helps with your injuries."
Xu Meiniang agreed, then drank a cup directly, and then closed her eyes to feel it carefully. Only after a while did she open them.
She said to Lin Guangcheng: "Master, this Green Jade Tea is indeed somewhat effective for my spiritual injuries, but it's not particularly large, but it can play a certain alleviating role."
Lin Guangcheng nodded: "It's good that it's effective. You have your own tea set. Take this small box of Green Jade Tea back to use first. I will find spirit medicines that can treat spiritual injuries as soon as possible."
Xu Meiniang was very grateful to hear Lin Guangcheng say this. After all, the master was indeed helping her find methods and spirit medicines to treat her spiritual injuries.
This second-grade Green Jade Tea was the best proof: "Thank you, Master. Little Maid will definitely work hard to repay Master in the future."
"You're welcome. Don't waste this pot of Green Jade Tea. Drink more and see if there will be a better effect."
Xu Meiniang agreed. Soon, a pot of spirit tea was finished. After sending Xu Meiniang back into the spirit beast bracelet.
Lin Guangcheng also rested himself. He still had to accompany Chen Zi Ya to the stall square to hunt for treasures tomorrow!
A few hours passed in a flash.
Early the next morning, after Lin Guangcheng finished his cultivation, he went to the living room of the suite, brewed a pot of Green Jade Tea, and waited for Chen Zi Ya by the way.
Not long after, Chen Zi Ya came out of the room. Seeing Lin Guangcheng already waiting there, she didn't expect Lin Guangcheng to be so early.
She said embarrassedly: "Senior Brother, morning!"
Lin Guangcheng smiled: "Junior Sister, come over and drink tea. It's still too early to go to the stall square. Let's drink tea for a while and go later!"
Chen Zi Ya nodded. The two drank tea and chatted. Time passed in a flash. After a pot of tea was finished, Lin Guangcheng estimated that the time was about right, so he led Chen Zi Ya to set off.
After leaving the inn's main entrance, the location of the stall square had been seen last night, so just walk straight along the main street. The two soon arrived at the place. After a glance, there were about four or five hundred stalls in the square. Seeing this, Chen Zi Ya was already eager to try.
This place was smaller than the stall square in Dongyang Market, but it was enough for Chen Zi Ya to look at for a long time. Lin Guangcheng followed behind her, putting a portion of his attention on her.
He also took the opportunity to search for some things he was interested in. Of course, the most important thing was to look for items with auras. Next were various spirit medicines, spirit crystals, and the like.
He also paid attention to some spirit objects his mother needed for talisman making. These were all his targets. Of course, he wouldn't buy talisman paper; there were twenty or thirty bundles in his storage bag, enough for his mother to use for a period of time.
They browsed dozens of stalls, but neither of them had any big gains. Lin Guangcheng only spent thirty spirit stones to collect a few common spirit grasses.
Just then, they happened to browse to a stall ahead, which was surrounded by a dozen or so cultivators.
Listening to the sound, it seemed like there was some good stuff, and the price couldn't be negotiated with the stall owner. Everyone was surrounding it to watch the fun.
Lin Guangcheng led Chen Zi Ya and squeezed in. Looking closely, it turned out to be someone selling spirit beast cubs, which was rare to see. Lin Guangcheng had browsed the stall square so many times, and this was his first time seeing it.
There were only four cages on the stall. Now the stall owner was arguing with a young cultivator, just because this cultivator took a fancy to a Purple Lightning Mink cub, but the two sides couldn't agree on the price.
At this time, Chen Zi Ya saw that Purple Lightning Mink cub, and her eyes suddenly shone with golden light. Seeing Lin Guangcheng had so many spirit beasts, she actually also wanted to raise one or two, but unfortunately, she had never encountered a suitable one. 【151-38
What she wanted was a spirit beast that was both good-looking and cute, and also quite powerful. She had looked for one in the sect, but none suited her taste. She hadn't expected to encounter one she liked here.
She hurriedly pulled Lin Zhangqing quietly, leaned into his ear, and whispered, "Senior Brother, I want to buy that purple mink."
In fact, the moment Lin Zhangqing squeezed in just now, his heart had been pounding wildly because he saw a strange golden halo.
Now, all of Lin Zhangqing's thoughts were on that halo, but he still spared a bit of attention to deal with her, explaining, "There's no way right now. According to the rules, we have to wait until they finish their negotiation before it's our turn. Let's wait a moment first!"
Now his main attention was focused on another place. In another, larger cage at this stall, three cute tiger cubs were locked up. They looked like they had just been born not long ago, and their eyes hadn't even fully opened.
On the body of one of them, there was a rather dim golden halo. This was very strange; the golden halos encountered before were always very bright, but this one felt a bit dim and lusterless.
Could it be because his Innate Merit True Eye had absorbed that sarira?
It was very obvious that these little tigers in the cage should be from the same litter. Even with careful identification, there was no way to know exactly what species they were.
Although Lin Zhangqing kept quite a few spirit beasts himself, he really didn't know too much about them. At the very least, he couldn't distinguish which species these little tigers were.
But what could be confirmed was that the one with the halo among them must have outstanding aptitude, which was why it was marked by the Innate Merit True Eye.
Lin Zhangqing had already decided that no matter how strange this halo was, he would buy this tiger cub first.
Seeing the stall owner still entangled with that young cultivator, Lin Zhangqing became a bit impatient. He spoke up to interrupt them and asked directly, "Boss, how are you selling these tiger cubs?"
The boss was also a bit annoyed with that young cultivator. Seeing someone asking for the price, he simply ignored him and took care of Lin Zhangqing's business instead.
He glanced at Lin Zhangqing and said, "These are cubs of the second-stage demon beast, the Mystic Tiger. If cultivated well, they will be second-stage helpers in the future.
And once they reach adulthood, they can be used as mounts. How about this, I'll sell you one tiger cub for 2,500 spirit stones."
