What the peddler said earlier was that this Fellow Daoist was a swindler or something.
He Xiuyuan had some doubts after hearing it, but after observing for the past few days and looking closely, he felt that this Fellow Daoist was not a swindler, nor had he ever used Spells to do anything harmful.
"Fellow Daoist..."
He Xiuyuan watched as the other person was once again thrown out, and immediately stepped forward to call out to the Cultivator.
Songfeng, who had just been driven out, was startled when he heard someone call him, and when he turned his head, he saw He Xiuyuan beside him.
Seeing He Xiuyuan address him as Fellow Daoist, Songfeng was clearly stunned, looking at He Xiuyuan with some hesitation.
"Your Excellency is....?"
Although he heard He Xiuyuan address him as Fellow Daoist, Songfeng had a faint guess in his heart, but he still found it a bit unbelievable.
Could this person... also be a Cultivator?
"I am He Xiuyuan, and I am also a Cultivator."
Seeing the other party's hesitant look, He Xiuyuan had no intention of hiding anything and directly explained.
Songfeng was stunned upon hearing He Xiuyuan's words, then his eyes suddenly widened, staring intently at He Xiuyuan, his eyes filled with astonishment.
"I am Songfeng. Is Fellow Daoist also a Cultivator?"
"Hmm, looking at Fellow Daoist these past few days, it seems a bit strange. May I ask what Fellow Daoist has been doing these past few days...?"
He Xiuyuan did not waste words and directly asked the question in his heart, while asking, he looked at the withered grass in the other's hand.
It was this withered grass that the other party had been constantly carrying around and asking about before.
It looked as if he wanted to exchange this withered grass for ten taels of silver.
"Uh... I've made Fellow Daoist laugh."
Seeing He Xiuyuan notice the withered grass in his hand, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across Songfeng's face, then he smiled apologetically.
He Xiuyuan looked surprised, "What, could this really be just withered grass?"
Seeing the other party's appearance, it was He Xiuyuan's turn to be surprised.
If Songfeng knew this was just withered grass, then his actions over the past few days truly made He Xiuyuan a bit puzzled.
This seemed very wrong.
"Hmm, actually, I can't be entirely sure, but I don't think it's just withered grass, right?"
Songfeng said this, his face showing a mix of confusion and hesitation.
He Xiuyuan looked at this scene, feeling even more bewildered.
"Fellow Daoist, what exactly is going on with you? Could you please explain clearly?"
He Xiuyuan looked at the other party's hesitant expression and could only inquire helplessly.
Seeing He Xiuyuan like this, Cultivator Songfeng thought for a moment, then extended his hand in an inviting gesture, signaling He Xiuyuan to talk aside.
He Xiuyuan immediately followed him to the side of the stone bridge and sat down.
"Fellow Daoist seems to have profound Dao cultivation, and should know the reason why we Cultivators are called Cultivators."
Cultivator Songfeng said after a slight pause after sitting down.
He Xiuyuan nodded lightly upon hearing this, "Of course I know. The Heavenly Dao is incomplete, and we Cultivators seek methods to restore the Heavenly Dao as much as possible."
"Indeed."
Cultivator Songfeng's expression relaxed slightly upon hearing He Xiuyuan explain the reason.
"The reason I am doing this is because I asked a He Xiuyuan, and that He Xiuyuan said that as long as I sell this withered grass for ten taels of silver, he would teach me profound Spells."
"I know it's difficult to find a way to repair the Heavenly Dao, so I thought of diligently Cultivating. If I encounter disturbances from foreign objects, I can also help a little."
Expert suddenly understood upon hearing this, then his gaze fell back on the withered grass in the other's hand.
After a brief thought, He Xiuyuan couldn't help but frown, "But this thing is still withered grass. Selling it for ten taels of silver might not be easy, right?"
"Moreover, if this thing is really sold, wouldn't it inevitably be a bit deceptive to those people?"
Songfeng quickly shook his head upon hearing this, "That He Xiuyuan said this is an Immortal Plant, it's just that our Dao cultivation is not enough, or we are Mortals, which is why we cannot see this object clearly."
"That Expert has extremely high Dao cultivation, so he should not be deceiving me."
Is that so?
Expert listened with some doubt, looking at the withered grass in the other's hand again and again.
Is this withered grass really a Spiritual Plant?
However, it's quite possible. He has been Cultivating for a relatively short time, so it's normal for him not to see the true nature of this withered grass.
"If that's the case, then it wouldn't be a loss for a Mortal to spend ten taels of silver to buy this Spiritual Plant. However, if even we can't recognize this Spiritual Plant, then Mortals would be even more so."
"Making those people spend ten taels of silver to buy this withered grass seems a bit like forcing them, doesn't it?"
He Xiuyuan thought of this and couldn't help but ask again, "Did that He Xiuyuan say what deep meaning there is in doing this?"
Cultivator Songfeng shook his head upon hearing this, with a hint of hesitation on his face, "I think, perhaps this Expert is testing me, and also giving those Mortals an Opportunity."
"After all, if someone is willing to believe me, then they can get this one that, after eating, will make them immune to all diseases."
Cultivator Songfeng said this with extreme seriousness.
He Xiuyuan still hesitated, "But I really can't tell that this withered grass is a Spiritual Plant."
Cultivator Songfeng heard this, looked at the withered grass in his hand, and his expression also became a little unnatural.
To be honest, he couldn't tell either, and this withered grass had been in his hand for quite some time. During this period, he had always felt that this withered grass didn't seem to be any kind of Spiritual Plant.
It was only because of that He Xiuyuan that he didn't doubt it much.
At this moment, hearing He Xiuyuan's words, Cultivator Songfeng was silent for a moment, then said, "I believe what that Expert said."
"Moreover, with what I have learned now, I really don't know how I can help in this great calamity."
"As long as I can get guidance from that Expert, this little test is nothing."
"Even if this thing is really just withered grass, I think that Expert probably wants to test me."
Cultivator Songfeng's words made Expert stunned for a moment.
According to this, this Cultivator Songfeng is not a swindler, but merely working so hard to sell this withered grass in order to receive guidance from a Expert.
However, such behavior, in the eyes of the common people, seemed like that of a swindler.
"If this thing is indeed just withered grass, after I achieve something in my studies, I will naturally find that shopkeeper and compensate him."
Cultivator Songfeng seemed to have thought of something at this moment, and after thinking for a moment, he added a sentence.
He had already thought about this matter in his heart.
If this thing was really just withered grass and had no other effects, then after he achieved something in his studies, he would naturally come back to compensate that shopkeeper.
However, the problem now was that no shopkeeper was willing to spend ten taels of silver to buy this withered grass.
