1140 Fishing (1/2)
Even though the sign had not changed, after Fang Yuan settled in, the store was naturally not selling any of those ordinary commodities like it did in the past.
The current store, in the words of the young man, was indeed really cool! There was a massive goat head suspended in the center of the store, and the glass jars on the shelves were full of all sorts of unknown liquids and emitting colorful lusters.
Within the glass counters, there were even more peculiar items.
Fang Yuan stood up and introduced his products one by one.
”Four-leaf Clover Charm! Said to bring good fortune!
”Toad eyeballs, air-dried bat wings, and an unusual cursed silver knife…
”What do you think?”
”Too… awesome!” The young man nodded fiercely. People at this age were the most rebellious. When they saw deviant styles and objects, they felt that these items were very tasteful.
As for trouble?
Haha… The Carls Federation did not have any laws restricting this area. In fact, there even seemed to be a trend for these dark items recently. An increasing number of young people were into non-mainstream elements like skull necklaces, black eye sockets, and so on.
In comparison, these were nothing significant.
”What does this rope do?” The young man walked one round before stopping in front of a rope.
”This is a knot braided using marsh marigold herb. I used a huge sum of money to exchange for it from one of the aboriginal tribes of the Black Continent. You should know how ignorant those aboriginal tribes are. They don't even have their own language, so they record important matters using knots… Do you want to purchase one? Who knows it has a mysterious ritual recorded within it? I will only charge you three silver sols.” Fang Yuan's voice gradually became softer.
”No… I just thought it was an ordinary knotted rope…” The young man stared at Fang Yuan suspiciously, like he was looking at a profiteer. ”You actually want to sell this to me for three silver sols? With the Black Iron God as my witness, I can purchase a cart full of ropes like this with three silver sols!”
”I'm merely suggesting!” Fang Yuan shrugged, regained his lazy expression, sat down, and continued reading a book.
”A book? There are books here?”
The young man walked to a bookshelf and looked at the sporadic books all over the place.
Morigu stared fiercely at the boy before turning to another side to sweep.
”Your maid is really pretty! Where did you hire her from?”
The young man stared at Morigu's outstanding butt as he swallowed his saliva.
”I randomly found her…” Fang Yuan smiled. ”So, young man, have you finished choosing?”
”No hurry! Hold on!” the young man responded without sincerity. Suddenly, he grabbed a large book.
”Voodoo Rituals… Young man, you have great judgment!” Fang Yuan feigned amazement. ”This is one of the few rare collections in my store! It only costs one gold punk!”
”Why don't you just rob someone?” When the young man heard this, he immediately threw the book back onto the shelf.
”Would robbing earn me money as fast as this?” Fang Yuan shrugged, acting nonchalant.
”Tsk tsk… tsk tsk…”
Just as the young man was leaving, he seemed to hear something coming from 'Voodoo Rituals'.
He suddenly felt slightly dizzy, as if he had double vision. He shook his head.
He inadvertently saw Morigu's back, and it seemed she was overlapping with some plant, making him jump.
He hurriedly rubbed his eyes and looked back again, but nothing was different from usual.
Damn it! What the hell is going on?
Although he immediately wanted to leave this unscrupulous store, this young man could not help it as he stepped forward, picked up Voodoo Rituals, and flipped to the first page:
”When lightning surges and thunder erupts,
grant me peace and protect my valor.
When lightning erupts and thunder surges,
light from the evening prayer set my mind at rest.
Go away, evil spirit, leave along with thou…”
”This is a protection incantation. Below are the required tools for the ritual: stewing pot, black snake, wasp, toad, bedbug…”
…
Smack!
The next moment, the book snapped shut.
The young man felt irritated as he looked up and saw Fang Yuan with a golden watch, looking at the time. ”My apologies… The books are only free to read for five minutes!”
