Chapter 53: The Night Cat

Chapter 53 The Night Cat
“Not opening the door during the day, it has to be at night, this fetish… “Chen Fei looked at the scene in front of him, and was somewhat tempted to spit.

Chen Fei purposely found an opportunity yesterday to ask Qian Jijiang where those two candles were purchased, and Qian Jijiang pointed out such a store to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei took a look around and did not feel anything unusual before he walked into the middle of the store.

“Customer, what do you need?”

A hoarse voice came, Chen Fei turned his head to look and saw a person less than a meter tall, stepping on a stool, currently looking at Chen Fei with a smile on his face.

Chen Fei surveyed the surroundings, but there was no difference with the usual stores, and the sinister atmosphere was even not there at all.

“I’ve heard that you sell things that restrain weirdness here?”

Chen Fei looked at the shopkeeper, there wasn’t the slightest hint of a martial artist’s aura, but it didn’t seem too different from ordinary people either, giving off a very strange feeling.

“Guest is considered to have found the right place.”

The shopkeeper pulled out a red candle from under the counter and placed it in front of Chen Fei, saying, “When you encounter weirdness, light this candle to ward off the weirdness. But it’s only warded off, if the weirdness stays by your side, the candle will burn faster. When it burns out, the weirdness will still kill.”

“How much?”

Chen Fei carefully surveyed the red candle, making sure that it was exactly the same as the one Qian Jijiang had taken out earlier. Previously over in the mountainous village, if it wasn’t for the red candle, it was bad to say that several people would have to die.

“One thousand taels a piece.”

“So expensive!”

Chen Fei looked up at the shopkeeper with some surprise, Chen Fei’s entire family belongings nowadays, I’m afraid it’s only enough to buy this one red candle.

“Compared to life, what is money worth.”

The shopkeeper laughed softly and said, “This candle is not easy to make, and in the entire Xingfen City, I am the only one who sells it here.”

“Are there any others?” Chen Fei asked in a low voice.

“Of course!”

The shopkeeper nodded, then took out another white candle from under the counter and placed it in front of Chen Fei, saying, “This candle, lit to attract weirdness, five hundred taels a piece.”

The indescribable smell emanated from the white candle, causing Chen Fei to recall what happened two days ago again.

This white candle was probably a suicide weapon if there was no red candle in the body, and it was a multitude of creepy things eating you together, thinking about it gave people the creeps.

“Is there more?”

Chen Fei knew that he couldn’t afford to buy anything today, so he simply grew his insight. Whenever he had more money, he would come to stock up.

“The Evil Breaking Sword, even if an ordinary person holds it, it can injure and even kill bizarre.”

A sword blade with a dark red body appeared on the counter, the blade was very thin, and when it collided with other blades, it was expected to be chopped off immediately, so it seemed that it was purposely used to deal with the bizarre.

“What’s the price?”

“Ten thousand taels of silver.”

“Please show the next piece.”

Chen Fei’s teeth were a bit sour, at this price, it was not that Chen Fei could not save up, but it did take quite a long time. You have to say that this sword blade is useless, right, it can cut down weirdness.

But to say it’s useful, it can only be used to cut down bizarre.

The shopkeeper was not impatient, and a medicine bottle appeared on the counter.

“Delusion-breaking water, apply it to your eyes to see through bizarre illusions, one thousand taels of silver.”

Chen Fei glanced at the medicine bottle with some curiosity, thinking of the legendary cow tears in his last life, which also had this effect. Two days ago, if he had this, he wouldn’t have to worry about circling around in the middle of the mists.

“Waking incense, lighting it can break the mists, three hundred taels.” A cone of incense appeared on the counter, Chen Fei had seen it before.

“Are there any others?” “No, only these.”

The shopkeeper shook his head and looked at Chen Fei and asked, “Which one does the guest have his eye on?”

“I’ll think about it.”

Chen Fei didn’t have the heart to say that he had little money, the candles and the waking incense were affordable, but Chen Fei still needed to buy a good furnace to refine pills, and if he bought them at this time, he wouldn’t have enough money.

“At the risk of asking, why does the store open at night?”

Before leaving, Chen Fei couldn’t help but ask curiously. It really didn’t see the need for this store that had to be opened at night.

“I’m sleeping during the day.” The shopkeeper said somewhat coyly.

Chen Fei saw the tricky general look at the expression of the shopkeeper, this look, this reason, some impact on the psychological construction before Chen Fei came.

So the things in this store, where exactly did they come from?

Chen Fei walked out of the store, skipped around the streets twice, and returned to the inn.

The entire night, Chen Fei spent in cultivation. Early the next morning, Chen Fei went to step on various stores again. However, this time, in addition to buying an elixir furnace, there was also the selling of elixirs.

After one round, Chen Fei’s expression was slightly complicated.

Various stores still purchased pills, but the purchase price was very low, almost only about 40% of the market price, similar to the share ratio given by the Zhang family at the beginning, which was equivalent to treating Chen Fei as his own alchemist.

With the price of the dark market in Pingyin County, it is a world of difference.

However, the demand for pills in Pingyin County at that time was clearly abnormal, so there was nothing to compare it to.

But for Chen Fei to sell pills to stores at such prices, Chen Fei was more or less unwilling.

And apart from selling pills to stores, there was actually another way, which was to set up his own stall to sell them.

Apricot Fen City has such a street, specializing in scattered cultivators selling all kinds of things at stalls. Chen Fei even went in, and there were all kinds of things inside. As for the quality, one had to rely on oneself to control it.

Chen Fei could refine the pills and then set up a stall there, but this would undoubtedly compress Chen Fei’s time.

The Surprising Swallowing Technique needed to be cultivated to the great circle so that Chen Fei’s cultivation could break through to the Calcined Bone Realm as soon as possible.

There was also the deduction of the Ever Floating Dan formula, the remnants of the formula that he had gotten from the Zhao family last time had quite a lot of content in it. For this deduction, Chen Fei expected that it would take more than a month, and he might be able to finish deducing the Dan formula.

There was also the bow technique, there were very few bow techniques in Pingyin County, but in Xingfen City, there were quite a few secret bow techniques, Chen Fei was still thinking of pushing his bow technique to another level.

So all these things, are very consuming Chen Fei’s time, in this stall, more or less some of the gains are not worth the losses.

“I need to find someone to help me set up the stall, and just share out some of the profits.”

Chen Fei thought for a moment, and Chi De Feng’s figure popped up in his mind at once. In Pingyin County, Chi De Feng was the one who set up the stall, and this matter, Chi De Feng could be said to be familiar with it.

After making up his mind, Chen Fei spent two hundred taels to buy a dan furnace and returned to the inn.

“You want me to help you sell pills?”

In the guest room, Chi De Feng looked at Chen Fei with some surprise and said, “It’s not enough for you to refine your own pills and sell them, why do you need my help?”

“The price given by the stores is too low, I need you to set up a stall to sell it. For the entire proceeds, I’ll give you half a percent.” Chen Fei smiled and said.

“Half a percent? Half a percent is a bit less, 20%.” Chi De Feng subconsciously counteroffered.

“Okay, 20%, it’s settled!”

Chen Fei immediately agreed, stepped forward and grabbed Chi Defeng’s hand, high-fiving him.

Chi Der Feng was a bit confused looking at Chen Fei’s operation, how is this routine a bit familiar, he just shouted low?
