This stall is very special.

Everything on the ground was filled with books, piled on top of each other, numbering at least several hundred volumes.

It's a breath of fresh air among the many stalls selling miscellaneous items.

The stall owner is a thin young man named Rogue Cultivator.

Seeing Wang Chen stopping in front of his stall, he immediately gave a big smile and said, "Fellow Daoist, do you read any books? I have all kinds of books here!"

What kind of books are there?

Wang Chen squatted down and asked, "Can I take a look?"

Young Rogue Cultivator raised three fingers. "You can only read the first three pages."

Wang Chen nodded, indicating that he recognized the other party's rules.

The memory of monks is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and their photographic memory is only casual. If they are allowed to browse casually, it is impossible to sell these books.

In fact, the other party's business is extremely bleak, and no one is patronizing it at all.

Most of the people who come here to go to the market are Outer Region Rogue Cultivator and monks from lower-level sects. Daily practice is not easy anymore, so there is no leisure time to buy books and read.

Moreover, there is also a book club in Yunyang City, which has a complete range of books and classics!

Wang Chen then took a thick book.

I saw the four characters "Cloud Dragon Nine Transformations" written on the cover!

Wang Chen: "..."

Anyone who is a disciple of the Yunyang Sect knows about "Cloud Dragon Nine Transformations".

Because this is Yunyang Sect's secret code of the Zhen sect, which is said to have been created by Patriarch Yunyang. It is extremely profound, profound and mysterious.

This skill points directly to the Nascent Soul avenue, and only Sect Master's disciple can obtain it True Disciple!

Such an important Cultivation Method Secret Manual actually appeared on a street stall in the market?

etc!

Wang Chen took a closer look and immediately discovered the problem.

It's not "Cloud Dragon Nine Transformations", but "Cloud You Nine Transformations"!

It's just that the word "you" is written a bit wildly, and you really can't tell it without looking carefully.

A fake with a high imitation book title!

"This is not for sale."

Young Rogue Cultivator, with his sharp eyes and quick hands, grabbed "Cloud You Nine Transformations" and stuffed it behind his butt. He smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, what book do you want to buy? I can help you choose it."

This kind of copycat Cultivation Method Secret Manual can only fool Xiao Bai. Wang Chen has a Yunyang Sect disciple nameplate hanging on his waist, which is not what Outer Region Rogue Cultivator can offend!

Young Rogue Cultivator looked around and said furtively, "I have color copies of Nine-Tailed Turtle, Wandering Immortal Cave, Demented Old Woman, Apricot Blossom Sky, Bian Erchai..."

"Stop!"

Wang Chen felt his head hurt when he heard it. "I don't need your recommendation, I will choose it myself."

What are these things...

If you don't practice Heavenly Dragon Vajra Righteous Dharma, he has it all covered!

Wang Chen: "How much Shattered Spirit are the books here per pound?"

Young Rogue Cultivator was confused. "Huh?"

Can this book be sold by the pound?

Wang Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, how many Shattered Spirit copies?"

Wang Chen Previous Life I actually bought a lot of street stall books worth nine yuan a pound, filling a large bookcase.

The young Rogue Cultivator scratched his head. "How about four, three Shattered Spirit?"

He suddenly felt that Wang Chen's algorithm was very good, because books vary from thick to thin, so selling them by the pound is the most reasonable.

"Okay."

Wang Chen did not bargain with the other party.

This young monk is wretched and wretched, but some of the books he presents are quite good.

Wang Chen After some selection, a total of fifty books were selected.

These books include not only the monks' travel experiences, but also records about demons and Evil Spirits.

Wang Chen even found a copy of Master Purple Mansion's chat notes among them!

It should have been recorded and compiled by the master's descendants.

These books cannot help Wang Chen improve his strength, but they can increase his insight and knowledge.

Who knows when it will come in handy!

As for those books related to exercises and skills, Wang Chen has no interest in reading them.

Because almost all of the Cultivation Method Secret Manual sold on street stalls are fake and wrong copies, and there is only one genuine product!

In the final settlement, he spent one Lower Spirit and fifty Shattered Spirit.

After paying for the book, Wang Chen stood up and prepared to leave.

Young Rogue Cultivator suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Fellow Daoist, I have a treasure map here..."

Wang Chen Li was too lazy to pay attention to him and left alone.

Treasure map?

That is definitely more deceptive than Cultivation Method Secret Manual!

It is said that some Devil Cultivator like to fish with treasure maps, making hundreds of copies and spreading them out. When the new monks who think they have obtained fortuitous opportunity rush over in a hurry, they will capture Make a Move, knock the bones, suck out the marrow and deprive Divine Soul.

This picture is probably real, pointing to the Cultivation Cave Mansion left behind by a certain master or even True Person.

But apart from traps, there can't be any treasures inside!

And these Jianghu experience were all told by Wang Shaoyuan to the original owner.

As for the young Rogue Cultivator who is trying to sell the treasure map.

Whether intentional or not, Wang Chen has blacklisted it.

He continued to walk around the market for almost half an hour and bought some things that were needed for daily life.

Then he headed back home.

Going back, we still take Dragon Scale Horse carriage.

There was a long row parked next to Chidao. After one car was full, it drove away, and the one behind immediately stepped in to continue picking up passengers.

It is very similar to Wang Chen Previous Life urban and rural buses.

Among the passengers in the car with him, there were many monks at the level of uncles and aunties.

They talked and laughed along the way and seemed very happy.

Everyone's face was filled with happiness and satisfaction.

Although overall this year was not satisfactory.

In the summer, a large number of Spirit Field were attacked by Insect Plague, and another invasion of Gray-Eyed Bandits made the countryside uneasy.

But these disasters were eliminated by the sect.

The second-season rice harvest in early winter was very good, and everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief and have a prosperous New Year.

The former Mr. Duan son dropped Heavy Snow again.

As the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, and next year is guaranteed to be even better.

As for happiness or not, just look at those Outer Region Rogue Cultivator, their lives are miserable!

Everyone tutted.

Another uncle said that his youngest son joined Reclamation Camp a few months ago.

Not only did it save the family the rent of ten acres of spiritual land, but they also came back with the dividends and rewards from land reclamation two days ago, and their cultivation level has even improved!

Everyone is envious and jealous.

Several aunts and wives inquired about their children's marriage prospects and promoted their daughters and nieces.

The uncle smiled so hard that he couldn't even close his mouth.

His life is getting more and more promising!

Suddenly someone in the corner muttered, "I heard that Field Rent will be added next year."

The surroundings suddenly became very quiet.

Regarding the rent increase next year, I don't know who spread the word.

Recently it has spread all over the country.

Everyone couldn't believe it.

At present, most Spirit Plant husbands and tenants pay 75% of the rent to the sect.

It is equivalent to one hundred kilograms of Spirit Grain and seventy-five kilograms of Field Rent.

The twenty-five kilograms of food rations I keep for myself are really not much.

If the rent is increased to 80% or even higher, it will be difficult for everyone to fill their stomachs with Spirit Grain.

Although the cheap Tribute Rice can also satisfy your hunger.

But if Spirit Grain is not enough to eat, how can there be any leftover to exchange for the resources needed for practice!

What if something happens again next year...

A shadow cast over everyone's minds, and they all lost interest in talking.

Too disappointing.

In the carriage, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of wheels running over the stone road.
