What else could he say?

As expected of the disciple he had taken in—she was outstanding!!!

How had he come across such an outstanding disciple?

The little girl also felt especially helpless.

Though she did not like cultivating, she was especially fond of reading.

Aside from all sorts of comic books, she also liked reading serious books.

Mainly because comic books had mentioned it.

By reading all kinds of serious books, Xiao Yue had truly filled her head with knowledge. Ordinary fakes could not escape her eyes.

"Uncle, you don't understand. This is my first time putting it into practice, but every one of their forgery techniques was so lousy. I'm really disappointed!"

If he had not seen the gleam in the little girl's eyes, Su Mu might really have believed her nonsense.

He now seriously suspected that the little girl was deliberately trying to tease him.

Or perhaps she was testing him to see whether he was a qualified master?

A little girl's thoughts should not be that deep, right?

She did not look like it either!!!

"Just keep looking slowly!"

Other than letting the little girl keep looking, Su Mu did not know what else to say.

"Uncle, I've already found my target! I really can't make up my mind about this pile of things. How about you help me take a look?"

As she spoke, Xiao Yue ran over to a stall.

How should he put it?

Everything on the Stall Owner's stand was battered and broken, most of it still covered in mud and dirt. Why did it all seem so unreliable?

Was the little girl serious?

She had analyzed the other items so expertly earlier, so why had she now set her sights on a pile of junk?

Was she sure she was not joking?

Was she sure she was not trying to tease him?

Why did Su Mu find this so unreliable?

"Are these things really reliable?"

Su Mu could not help asking the little girl before him.

What exactly was she thinking?

"Uncle, although these things look battered and broken, I think they're genuinely old. There might be some real treasures among them!"

They might look a little shabby, but they really were old. Perhaps they were genuinely good things?

Xiao Yue did not know why, but she always felt that there was something good in the stall before her.

She just did not know which item was the real treasure.

Chapter 18: Hesitation

Good things?

What kind of joke was this?

Look at those rotten branches and scraps of cloth on the stall. What good things could there possibly be?

Besides, there was a huge problem with the seller too!

He was just an ordinary burly middle-aged man, definitely not some hidden expert. What good things could he possibly produce?

Had his Little Disciple lost her mind, or taken some kind of mind-bewitching drug? Why did she think the things before her were reliable?

This made no sense!

Su Mu found it utterly baffling!

"Uncle, I've decided. I'm buying from this stall!"

No matter how Su Mu kept trying to persuade her from the side, Xiao Yue still chose this stall.

The items were indeed terrible, but Xiao Yue simply had a feeling that there was something good in the stall before her!

"Little miss, I wonder which item has caught your eye?"

Seeing someone linger in front of his stall for two minutes, the Stall Owner immediately grew interested.

Was he finally going to make a sale?

He had thought she was just a little girl casually browsing, but she had turned out to be a big customer!

He was going to strike it rich!!!

Seeing that the little girl did not speak, the Stall Owner guessed that she was nervous or perhaps did not trust him. However, he had long grown accustomed to such things.

The Stall Owner immediately began introducing his goods to Xiao Yue enthusiastically.

"See this cultivation manual in my hand? Don't underestimate it. It is said to be the cultivation manual of some Dou Zong expert..."

Su Mu could understand every word in the manual, but when strung together, not a single line formed a sentence. What kind of joke was this???

Then, the Stall Owner picked up another item!

"See these roots in my hand? They're the roots of Purple Void Dragon King Ginseng..."

Roots of Purple Void Dragon King Ginseng? Were they sure these were not wooden stumps?!

Who knew where the Stall Owner had found such nonsense? It actually looked rather nice. If it were used to carve a wooden sculpture, it would definitely be a good choice!

"And this beast hide in my hand—it is absolutely not an ordinary piece of beast hide. It contains hidden secrets and is a treasure map. Would the young lady like to take a look?!!..."

The beast hide did indeed look like beast hide, and it was especially coarse. It did not seem forged, but there were also some white markings on it. Was this beast hide even legitimate???

"See this feather? It is said to be from a high-tier magical beast. Otherwise, how could it be so bright..."

The feather looked nice enough, but what the hell was a single feather good for?

Could it ward off evil and make one immune to harm?

Did he really think it was some divine beast's feather??

Even though Su Mu did not recognize these items, he did not find a single word from the Stall Owner remotely credible.

Was he trying to fool ghosts?

Could he not be a little more believable when he spoke? Could he stop exaggerating so much?

How was anyone supposed to believe him?

The goods before him were obviously all trash. The only good thing was that they did not bear any obvious signs of forgery!

Who knew where the Stall Owner had dug up this garbage? He actually dared to display it as heavenly treasures?

If the items were really that incredible, would he dare leave them lying around so carelessly?

Did he really think he was a Dou Di?

What kind of confusion had the little girl fallen into? Why did she want to buy something from this stall?

If he had known the girl was this muddleheaded, he might as well have used the Treasure Hunting Talisman at the previous stall. Maybe they could have bought something there—something more reliable?

Was she not going to waste one of his Treasure Hunting Talismans for nothing?

What on earth was this foolish girl thinking?

"Girl, it's not that this old woman insists on butting in, but you should think carefully before buying things! You're still so young, so you need to be more careful when purchasing things!"

Xiao Yue carefully examined every item before the stall. Just then, an elderly woman beside her suddenly spoke up. She clearly could not stand it any longer.

Was it really appropriate to deceive a little girl?

With a consoling expression, she clearly did not want the little girl to waste her gold coins for nothing.

Others might not know what kind of person the Stall Owner was, but the old woman had been there for so long. How could she not know?

He had dug up a pile of garbage from who knew where, yet he was selling it as treasure?

Was that not outright swindling?

The old woman had seen far too many people get cheated by the Stall Owner.

And now he was not even willing to spare a little girl?

Who knew which family this foolish girl had run out from? Why had she rushed over so naively?

Most of the old items sold on the stall were scams and tricks; there was nothing truly good among them.

She hoped the girl would listen to her advice!

"You damned old hag, what are you saying?

The little girl has taken a liking to my things. What right do you have to butt in?

What, is your own business so bad that you want to ruin mine too?

Why don't you take a good look at yourself?

I think you don't want to stay here anymore?!?"

The old woman's meddling had clearly angered the Stall Owner.

A customer had finally come, and he was finally about to make a sale. How could he let someone else ruin it so easily?

Did he still want to do business or not?

If this deal fell through, he would definitely make that old hag beside him pay!

He had not provoked her, yet she actually dared come looking for trouble with him?
