Lord Highlander

Chapter 72 71. Magic Grocery Store

Under the wooden boards are some bottles and jars containing magical herbs. The herbs in the jars look so lifelike, and some even have their roots perfectly preserved.

He Boqiang felt a little curious, and went to the side of those herbs to observe carefully.

At this time, a thin old man came out from behind the shelf without a sound.

He saw that He Boqiang was observing those magical herbs, his eyes like goldfish eyes were wide open, and he walked towards He Boqiang with excitement, his old and wrinkled face was raised upwards, and he grasped it with both hands. He Boqiang's sleeves, his eyes full of fear and hope, and his voice full of earnestness, said:

"Warrior, do you have these magic herbs in your hand? I will buy any of these magic herbs at a high price..."

He Boqiang simply shook his head.

Hope was disillusioned in the skinny old man's eyes. He reached out and stroked his thinning hair. There was infinite disappointment in his gray eyes, and the enthusiasm on his face cooled down quickly.

Those goldfish eyeballs immediately turned into dead fish eyes, exposing most of the white eyeballs, and said to Suldak in a nasal voice:

"So, the two of you are not here to sell magic herbs? So... what do you two want to buy?"

That arrogant tone makes people want to turn around and walk away.

However, Suldak was not displeased at all. He smiled and said to the skinny old man:

"Your Excellency, Pharmacist, we belong to the advance army of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment, and we are about to go to Moyun Ridge in Mount Gandahel. We heard that there are some magical herbs abound in Mount Gandahel. We came here mainly to learn more about it. Let’s take a look at the most common magic herbs in Ganda Er Mountain, and what should be paid attention to when collecting them. Although I have mastered the primary skinning technique, I don’t know anything about collecting them.”

Suldak's words immediately calmed down the expression of the old man in the magic grocery store, and his face was no longer so irritable.

The skinny old man said 'groaning and chirping':

"Hmph...I'm not a pharmacist, don't talk nonsense, so you're about to enter Mount Ganda Er? Well, that's good..."

Seeing the owner of the grocery store soften his tone, the smile on Suerdak's face became even more cordial.

"Do you want to know what magic herbs are produced in the Gandar Er Mountains?" The skinny old man asked again.

At this time, He Boqiang discovered that the old man was actually wearing a set of dirty robes. This robe was soaked with an unknown dye and lost its original color, and the cuffs and necklines were worn out, making it very shabby.

The skinny old man had been talking with Suldak and didn't pay attention to He Boqiang.

He seems willing to chat about some magical herbs, just listen to him:

"No one here knows these magical herbs better than me, so I will tell you in detail. The most common reflection in Ganda Er Mountain should be this silver leaf grass..."

"...I said it is common, but I just want to compare it with other types of magic herbs. Now magic herbs are scarce, and it is not easy to find a silver-leaf grass. This kind of magic grass does not like the sun and is usually drying. It grows in a dark place, and the most obvious features are oval silver leaves, phimosis..."

After listening to this eccentric old man talking about herbs for a long time, Suldak became acquainted with the skinny old man. Suldak slapped his chest on the spot and promised that as long as he found the magic herb , if there is a chance to bring it back, it must be sent here to sell.

Such a guarantee made the skinny old man feel very happy.

At this time, Suldak finally spoke out about the purpose of coming here:

"This time the advance army of the infantry regiment went to Ganda Er Mountain mainly to open up a smooth forest road for the Construct Knights in the rear and build a camp under Moyun Ridge."

Suldak said earnestly:

"You can probably understand how dangerous this task is, but for us, there are more opportunities to get in touch with the magic grass in this mountain, so we also want to buy some practical emergency magic scrolls from you."

The space in the tent of this magical grocery store is very small, only enough for two people to stand. At this time, someone outside wanted to come in. He opened the curtain and found that the tent was full of people, and then he said a few words of complaint. This skinny old man Simply ignore it, just put down the door curtain, and throw those people outside.

Then he said seriously:

"That's it! Let me think about it, that's right... Of course the advance army entered the army first, and the chances of collecting magic herbs are much higher than other troops. Er, do you have any magic scrolls for you..."

He turned around and walked to a shelf full of scrolls, first took off a bundle of magic scrolls and placed them in front of the stage.

He started flipping through the magic scrolls quickly, saying:

"Let me see, in fact, the range of choices is really small..."

The old man frowned, and put the magic scrolls back on the stage:

"None of these will work. These attack-type magic scrolls can only be cast by magic apprentices, and these are not very good..."

Finally, he found two palm-sized magic scrolls at the bottom of a shelf, and said to Suldak:

"This fire-gathering magic scroll allows you to light a bonfire at any time. You probably won't use this kind of scroll in the mountains and forests. You can still prepare one for this water-gathering scroll, and this... sentry The scroll, it seems useless..."

The water-gathering scroll... He Boqiang and Suldak stretched their heads to look at it, thinking that such a high-level scroll would not know how much it would cost.

The thin old man finally said from his mouth: "This water gathering scroll is worth twenty-five silver coins, but since you are looking for magic herbs in the mountains, twenty silver coins can be taken away..."

Suldak and He Boqiang glanced at each other, as if it was acceptable...

Afterwards, Suldak touched his purse again, and boldly asked, "So... do you have any healing potions?"

"Healing potions? Do you really dare to think... Now that there is an extreme shortage of magic herbs, this kind of potions have become very precious in the magic market. I don't think you should expect to be able to buy healing potions. At least I don't have them here. Since I mentioned Potions, I’m afraid you can use this, by the way, I still have some hemostatic bandages here, you can also take some.”

The skinny old man curled his lips, and stared at Suldak with a look of disdain, his expression was very unbearable.

Although he didn't take out the healing potion that Suldak wanted this time, he found two bottles of green potion from the corner of the shelf. He Boqiang knew this potion, and Suldak had a bottle of this antidote before.

Then the skinny old man threw a dirty roll of bandages to Suldak, and then drove He Boqiang and Suldak out of the tent.

There are still a bunch of people around the magic grocery store at this time. Everyone wanted to go in and see what was inside. When they saw someone coming out, they surrounded them again, but they didn't expect the thin arms to stick out from the tent. , put a wooden sign saying 'Closed' outside the curtain of the tent...

Those who wanted to enter the magical general store for a visit couldn't help but stand outside the tent and look at each other...

Suldak and He Boqiang squeezed out the crowd and waited for the specific time to meet tomorrow, and Suldak returned to the barracks.
