"Fellow senior brothers, is there anything you want to buy?"
Su Qianyue pointed to the various items displayed on the counter and asked the crowd in a low voice.
Qianlong pulled Jianxian and Dabaojian apart, squeezed between them, and began to examine the items sold in the shop.
It displays elixirs, magical artifacts, and some basic cultivation techniques on jade slips.
As for where these pills came from, it's all thanks to the group of Crimson Flame Monkeys who refined them.
Although the pills produced by the Crimson Flame Monkey are of relatively low grade, they are abundant.
More importantly, the negative effects of erysipelas on those with a strong constitution are minimal, and many elixirs can be used directly by them.
Returning to the present moment, Qianlong's gaze settled on a Rejuvenation Pill.
The Rejuvenation Pill, as the name suggests, is a pill that can replenish a cultivator's qi and blood.
"I knew it! How can you play a game without health potions? Turns out they're only just released. I wonder if they're any good." Qianlong wondered to himself.
"Senior brother, are you interested in purchasing this Rejuvenation Pill? This pill is excellent at healing injuries, and the price is very reasonable."
As soon as Su Qianyue spoke, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her palms, and she felt a little regretful.
She genuinely wanted to sell some items to help Zhou Yi as much as she could. But she wondered if her sudden outburst might scare her senior brother away.
But as it turns out, Su Qianyue's worries were clearly unnecessary.
Qianlong smiled and waved at her, saying cheerfully, "Since Junior Sister has said so, the effect of this pill must be pretty good. Buy me five."
He actually bought it.
Su Qianyue was somewhat surprised.
She used to watch her father haggle with others when he made deals, and it would often take a long time to reach an agreement.
But after I casually introduced the pill, this senior brother bought it without saying a word.
Is this what trust between fellow disciples is all about?
It seems there's nothing wrong with staying here.
Su Qianyue snapped out of her daze and quickly packed up the five Rejuvenation Pills, handing them to Qianlong: "Senior brother, this contains 20 sect contribution points. Please keep it safe."
"it is good."
Qianlong smiled and tried to accept the Rejuvenation Pills, but the next moment, his expression became extremely stiff.
What...what?
20 sect contribution points?
Are you sure you didn't add an extra zero at the end?
I've killed demons for the sect, I've risked my life for the sect, how come I can't even afford healing potions now?
Qianlong only has 15 sect contribution points, which clearly means he can't afford to pay for the Rejuvenation Pill.
He looked a little embarrassed and scratched his head sheepishly, "Um, Junior Sister Qianyue, does our sect support installment payments for purchases?"
Su Qianyue was a little confused by this sudden word.
installment.
What is this?
However, recalling Zhou Yi's instructions to her, Su Qianyue ignored them and did not delve into the matter further.
Qianlong took out his sect contribution points and slowly counted them in his hand.
One, two, three.
Su Qianyue didn't think much of it when she saw this, assuming that this senior brother was a person who was organized in his work.
But Qianlong didn't think that way.
"Brothers, if you don't come soon, my lifelong reputation will be ruined."
He prayed silently in his heart, and tried to slow down the flow of money as much as possible.
I just posted a message in the player channel, they should be back soon.
Hang in there, Qianlong, you have to hold on!
Finally, he saw several familiar figures appear in his field of vision.
In the distance, Wohu and his companions carried a spirit deer and marched in a grand procession toward the spirit field.
Wo Hu had everyone put the spirit deer down, and then led them to the newly opened contribution shop.
Upon seeing this, Qianlong secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly gave Wohu a look.
Crouching Tiger smiled knowingly and quietly passed 5 sect contribution points to Hidden Dragon.
Qianlong secretly accepted it, and a look of joy finally appeared on his face.
"Alright, junior sister, here are your 20 sect contribution points."
Qianlong handed over the sect contribution points, picked up the bottle of Rejuvenation Pill, and the others each paid Qianlong 5 sect contribution points.
"By the way, is there anything you guys want to buy? There's quite a lot of equipment here."
Qianlong pointed to the ten magical artifacts displayed on the counter, which included not only ordinary swords and knives, but also some strange magical artifacts.
Qunxing reacted the fastest; he had long wanted to get a better magical artifact.
That green bamboo sword is really not very effective. It's just so-so when killing monsters, and more importantly, the damage is too low.
If I had to find an advantage, it would probably be that it's not easy to break.
"Wow, this sword even has attributes! The Ice Sword has a freezing effect, how cool!"
The stars gazed at the Frost Sword on the counter with burning eyes, wishing they could pick it up and slay monsters to level up.
However, when he asked about the price of the sword, his face turned pale.
100 sect contribution points!
Even if you sold him, he wouldn't be worth that much money.
But the stars were still not giving up and then inquired about the prices of the other magical artifacts.
Without exception, he cannot afford it with his current financial resources.
Crouching Tiger reached for a large sword, his eyes filled with reluctance.
Although he used swords most of the time, his favorite weapon was still the broadsword.
Those skilled with a knife employ sweeping, powerful attacks that are unstoppable.
Unfortunately, the longsword cost 50 sect contribution points, which made him hesitate.
It's true that even a hero can be brought down by a penny.
Wo Hu calmed himself down and quickly adjusted his state of mind.
Anyway, they were the first players to come and explore the area, so barring any unforeseen circumstances, he'll get the weapon sooner or later.
Right now, I should focus on improving my strength and earning sect contribution points as quickly as possible.
The people observing the weapons had similar thoughts.
That means you have to keep fighting monsters and earn contribution points.
The sect leader has now issued monster-killing missions. Although there aren't many experience points, the sect contribution points from collecting monster corpses are quite substantial.
With a little effort, earning a few dozen sect contribution points is not out of reach.
With that in mind, Wohu and the others each bought some cost-effective talismans and items, and then headed towards the spirit field.
"Qianlong, we've hunted a top-quality spirit deer today. We'll have Cangfeng and Mingyue make some roasted venison later, so everyone can enjoy this delicacy that only immortals can eat."
The Immortal smiled and patted the Hidden Dragon on the shoulder, telling him the good news.
Qianlong was also somewhat curious when he heard this.
What do the foods that immortals eat actually taste like?
Since they started playing this game, the only food they've eaten online has been regular spirit rice.
Since there were no other seasonings, the taste was just average.
The only somewhat magical thing is that after taking it, one's own condition will improve, and one will feel completely refreshed.
"Venom is a very nutritious food, Qianlong, you can look forward to it."
As he walked, Crouching Tiger stretched and teased Hidden Dragon.
The two were close friends despite their age difference; in Wohu's mind, Qianlong seemed to be a recent graduate.
He probably hasn't eaten much of the highly nutritious foods yet.
