"I said you bought goods from me?" Elder Mo was stunned for a long time before he recovered.

Li Yichen was also a little embarrassed, thinking, "Do you think I'm happy?"

"Ahem..." He could only cough twice awkwardly, and then said, "Just tell me if you can decide?"

"Yes... yes, yes..." Elder Mo lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said hesitantly, "But you have to pay more..."

"How much?" Li Yichen was a little nervous. He hadn't asked "Waters of the River of Forgetfulness" before how much he wanted? He didn't know if one thousand kilograms would be enough?

Then, he looked at the old man, gritted his teeth, stretched out a finger, and waved it in front of his eyes.

"One thousand catties..." Li Yichen almost jumped up. This old man is so shady. He only got a thousand catties. He didn't leave any for himself?

Just when I was about to roll up my sleeves and beat him, I heard the old man say "Waters of the River of Forgetfulness a pound"

Li Yichen was stunned for a moment, and asked with some uncertainty, "One... one pound? You just said a thousand words, right?"

The old man looked at him like an idiot, "You heard right, it's just one catty, and you pay 'thousand'? Who do you think you are? For a thousand catties, do you think you are the grandson of Mr. King of Hell?"

"Oh" Li Yichen silently turned to the old man, pouted, and thought, "One pound is enough? You haven't eaten any good pork... Although I am not the grandson of King of Hell, I am the grandson of Ghost Emperor. What's wrong? The old man didn't expect it, did he?"

Seeing that Li Yichen didn't say anything, he just kept giggling and frowned, "One pound is too embarrassing for you, at least half a pound, no less..."

"The price has been reduced again just now?" Li Yichen was stunned. "This Waters of the River of Forgetfulness is definitely a good thing. How much would it be worth if it were all converted into money?"

So, he wiped his saliva and pretended to be heartbroken, "How much do you want? When will I come to get the goods?"

When the old man saw that he agreed, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally satisfied with just one tael, but he actually extorted half a kilo.

Thinking of this, the old man couldn't close his mouth when he smiled. Li Yichen was afraid that his dentures would come out when he smiled.

"You can smile like this even if you weigh only half a kilogram. If you knew that I weighed a thousand kilograms, I would faint from joy." Li Yichen couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"In half a month, you come to pick up the goods." The old man finally suppressed his smile and said seriously.

"No, it's too long." Li Yichen was unhappy and held out three fingers, "Three days, just three days, not even one day later."

"Three days? You can't do it even if you beat me to death." The old man jumped up immediately, without even hunching over his waist. He glared and shouted, "Do you think this is a tree on the mountain? You can just chop it down whenever you want?"

"Add half a pound more Waters of the River of Forgetfulness." Li Yichen said calmly.

The old man immediately calmed down, then slowly sat down, took out a small bottle of Quick-Acting Heart-Saving Pill from his arms, poured two pills out of it, and put it in his mouth. Then he asked with some uncertainty, "You just said, add half a pound?"

"Yeah" Li Yichen nodded affirmatively, "Just tell me if it can be done? If not, I'll find someone else..."

"Can it be done? It must be possible." The old man jumped up immediately, patted his chest and promised, "We will definitely deliver the goods in three days..."

The old man was so excited that he slapped his chest so hard that Li Yichen was afraid that a mouthful of blood would spurt out from him.

"Stop..." Li Yichen was afraid that he would beat him to death, so he quickly stopped him and said, "Just now you said you couldn't beat him to death? Now..."

"You must have heard wrong. What I meant is, 'As long as you can't be beaten to death, you can do it.'" The old man was so shameless for this half-pound "Waters of the River of Forgetfulness".

"Then can you pay a deposit first?" Then the old man looked at him expectantly.

"Of course." He had a thousand kilograms in his hand and didn't care at all about the half kilogram.

"Okay... Okay, just wait for me and don't run away..." The old man was overjoyed, jumped up and ran back. Look at the fast one, how does he look like an old man in his seventies or eighties?

"This old man, do you need to be so anxious?" Li Yichen shook his head helplessly.

As a result, before he could even take a breath, the old man ran back in a hurry.

He was breathing heavily and said with a smile, "Fortunately you didn't run away."

Li Yichen suddenly had black lines all over his head, "It's just a pound of crickets, am I the same?"

He looked at the old man with contempt and said casually, "Bring the bottle."

"Here you go..." The old man smiled and handed over a bottle. It was only the size of a palm, but it was as delicate as a piece of solidified suet.

Even if Li Yichen doesn't understand Hetian Jade, you can still feel that this bottle is definitely not ordinary.

"Is this Mutton-Fat Jade?" Li Yichen liked the bottle at first sight, and then looked at the old man with envy. "Isn't it a waste to use it to hold water? Why don't you just find a Mineral Water bottle and give this to me?"

The corner of the old man's mouth twitched, "It's not for show. Only this kind of top-quality jade can prevent the special energy in "Waters of the River of Forgetfulness" from being lost."

"Oh, that's it." Li Yichen looked understanding, but he just kept playing with the bottle in his hand, looking like he couldn't put it down.

When the old man saw this, how could he not know the Little Nine jiu in his heart? He really wanted to go up and slap him in the face.

But when I thought of the terrible consequences, I had no choice but to bite it, took out two pairs of bracelets from my arms, forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said, "If you like, I have two pairs of bracelets here..."

"Oh, why are you so embarrassed? You are too polite." Li Yichen almost grabbed it, took the thing from the old man's hand, and put it into his pocket.

"Hehe... As long as you like it... As long as you like it..." The old man was about to cry. He was actually robbed by this kid, and he still had to apologize. Who the hell could he reason with?

Li Yichen has benefited, so he will naturally stop teasing the old man. If he gets impatient, it will be no good for him.

Immediately, he reached out and took out the vial given by Meng Po.

Strangely enough, this bottle has no cap at all. Looking through the mouth of the bottle, you can see water inside, but not a drop of it spilled out. It's really strange.

Li Yichen followed the method taught by Meng Po, chanted the formula, and touched the mouth of the bottle with his hand. Suddenly, a streak of White Light flashed across the mouth of the bottle.

Immediately, he made a sword-shaped right hand and pointed at the mouth of the bottle Void. A ball of water, about the size of a walnut, floated out from the mouth of the bottle.

The water ball was extremely pure, almost as transparent as air. But there was a soul-like wave coming from it.

The old man was stunned. He stood there in a daze, not knowing how to close his mouth for a long time. "Is this the famous Waters of the River of Forgetfulness? I can feel the soul fluctuations inside... It's really amazing..."
