As long as there are enough vests, the plot can't kill me
Chapter 139 Shameless Merchant
"Ketong... does it mean eating?"
Lin Xiao never dreamed that one day he would come across the "Foreign Language Phonetic Notation" method when he came to another world.
This reminded her of the days when she was in middle school and used Chinese characters to mark the pronunciation of foreign languages.
It has to be said that intelligent species often have similar ideas.
The Thunder Beast Clan had been away from the big world for a long time, and in order to ensure that they would not be out of touch in the future, they invented the method of phonetic notation.
However, this method seems to have no effect.
To this day, only the royal family is left in the entire tribe. They have not completely forgotten the truth, but they still stumble when they speak it.
Therefore, it was a good excuse for Lei Qian to choose to learn the true language in order to get closer to the young emperor.
"Real world, virtual world, world sea, world beasts..."
After taking a tour around the Thunder Beast Clan's inner vault, Lin Xiao finally understood the origin and roots of this clan.
They originally lived in the Qiantian Realm of the Real World, in a tidal flat area called Lingze Abyss, and were spiritual beasts of the king beast level.
The reason why they fell to this point is that a certain king of thunder beasts offended the lord of Qiantian Territory, and the entire clan was implicated and banished to the boundary sea to serve as boundary beasts guarding the gate.
I can’t tell how many years I have been waiting.
Due to limited information, Lin Xiao came to this conclusion by piecing together information and making half-guesses.
She put down the slate in her hand, her brows slightly tightened, feeling that it didn't make sense.
Since the Thunder Beast Clan has basically no connection with the Great Thousand World, why are even the architectural styles of the two similar?
Just a coincidence?
"Miss, you are making fun of me."
As a temporary guide, Lei Gan found that Lin Xiao didn't like anything, so he could only smile awkwardly and did not take the initiative to introduce any item.
He is self-aware. If the Thunder Beast Clan is still among the king beasts, there might be something here that Miss Lin would be interested in.
After so many years of struggle, the foundation has been almost exhausted.
Lin Xiao did not miss the other party's expression. After understanding the Thunder Beast Clan's thoughts, he was no longer polite.
"Your Highness, can you give up these stones?"
The black stone was very similar to the ones sold by the little female beast, but the aura on it was a hundred times stronger.
"Hey, Emperor, why don't you change to something else..."
When Lei Qian saw what Lin Xiao had picked, he was so excited that he changed his name.
"What if that's all I want?"
"Of course, you can."
"That's good."
After saying that, Lin Xiao directly put away the three large black stones, treating them as tuition fees paid in advance by the Thunder Beast Clan.
After receiving the payment, she was too lazy to hang around here and was ready to fulfill the transaction directly.
"Let's go."
"Yes."
The two of them left the treasury. Lei Qian, who was slightly behind Lin Xiao, had mixed feelings. He felt that Miss Lin was a very unusual emperor.
Although the thunder beast tribe has declined, they were once the king of beasts and have accumulated many good things.
Their treasury may not be comparable to the famous sects in the real world, but it also contains many enviable things.
But Miss Lin chose the three most useless stones for the current thunder beast clan.
"Miss, our ancestors once brought a full ten-square thunderstone to the Mist Sea. When they were passed to my father, only these last three pieces were left."
If someone else heard this, they might think that Lei Qian said this to increase the value of the stone.
But Lin Xiao didn't. She keenly heard the disappointment and helplessness in the other person's words.
Thunder stone?
Lin Xiao didn't know the specific function of the black stone, so she planned to ask questions while continuing to improve her image as a child of a wealthy family.
Clichés are actually a science, a science that makes the most of information gaps.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t know the function of the stone. Based on what Lei Qian said, you can infer that this thing is a consumable.
Fang is definitely a measure word, which is a relatively large unit.
Similar numerical units include "万" and "亿" followed by "京" and "垓".
With this vague information, Black Stone can be confined to a relatively small scope of use.
Then, throw the question back in a tone of 'I actually already know the answer' and look for the truth from the other person's answer.
"Your Highness, life in the sea of fog must be hard, right?"
As expected, when Lei Gan heard Lin Xiao's sigh, he did not doubt it and was directly moved.
He was worried about the future of his ethnic group and felt guilty about his ancestors.
Generation after generation of Beast Kings would leave behind a last wish before their death, hoping that the younger generations in the royal lineage would be able to lead their people to escape the fate of world beasts and return to the real world.
"Yes, Uncle Qi said that before the clan land was built, our ancestors relied on these thunder stones for support, and they were reluctant to eat them later. These last three pieces were left by my grandfather, hoping that future generations..."
The true feelings from the heart inadvertently revealed a lot of information, which was instantly captured by top businessmen.
Knowing the purpose of the black stone, Lin Xiao was a little surprised, but not shocked in his heart.
After all, she had gone through nine years of compulsory education and had long understood one thing: the only difference between humans and stones and other species is the type of elements and their arrangement structures.
At the energy level, we are actually the same, all studying and utilizing the topic of 'conversion between energy and matter'.
If stones are for eating, or if they come from the real world...
The Thunder Beast Clan gradually declined and even lost their language. Could it be related to these black stones?
"Your Highness, I took away something that meant a lot to you. Does that seem a little inappropriate?"
As the words fell, Lin Xiao suddenly stopped walking.
After piecing together enough information, the balance between the two parties in the transaction was instantly broken, and the market became a seller's market.
So, Lei Gan, who was walking behind, was forced to stop, looked up blankly, and saw that smiling face.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat and his brain felt like it was about to explode.
Miss Lin said so, but it seemed that she had no intention of returning the stone... So, is she, is she hinting at me?
What does it mean, exactly?
"Miss, you..."
"Let's start now. I can't stay in your tribe for too long." Lin Xiao interrupted Lei Gan's question and his expression returned to normal.
She didn't choose to continue the conversation. The previous topic was just an introduction to the next business deal.
Deals have to be done one by one, and other things can be discussed after tutoring is completed.
"Okay, okay."
Although Lei Qian was eager to know the answer, he ultimately did not have the courage to speak and had to suppress his anxiety.
The two were silent for a moment, and then began a long class, which took place in Lei Qian's courtyard.
In fact, teaching materials on truth are already available.
Lin Xiao took out the jade and stone slabs left in the storage by the ancestors of the Thunder Beast and learned how to do it on the spot.
After learning it, he handed it over to Lei Qian who was listening attentively in the class.
What she did was pure freeloading. First, she used her Tao seeds to steal other people's innate magical powers, then she used deception to get into the treasury, and now she is using other people's knowledge to do business with the original owner.
The shameless nature of the businessman was fully displayed.
Young Master Lin certainly wouldn't think of himself as shameless, as businessmen are essentially "intermediaries" whose main job is to help clients solve problems.
Don't worry about where I got my things. It's enough that I can give you what you need.
Well, that makes sense!
……
"Your Highness, you have made four mistakes. The word tong should be pronounced lightly, without any tone. The same goes for the word ke. It should be pronounced together quickly. Ketong, do you understand?"
After teaching for a while, Teacher Lin, who had already mastered the teaching materials, immediately turned into Principal Lin. He had a strict teacher demeanor, which put people under a lot of pressure.
On the other hand, the 'stupid student' Lei Gan lowered his head in shame at the same time after making another mistake.
It's not that he can't speak it, he already has the basic skills, but his pronunciation is not standard.
In layman's terms, it has a strong local flavor, just like the phrase on the Internet "I have a sister's accent too!"
This might not seem like a big deal at normal times, but when compared with Lin Xiao, even a fool can hear the difference.
This is especially obvious after someone has fully mastered the True Words system.
"I, I will pay attention next time."
Only the Thunder Beast Clan is completely black, otherwise, the old king beast in the dark and the steward at the door would definitely be able to see the red cheeks of their children.
Several big guys shamelessly attended the class for free, which opened my eyes and impressed me at the same time.
Although the course was one-on-one, Miss Lin did not let the steward at the door leave.
Including the king hidden in the dark and two attendants, it is like buying one and getting four free.
They all agreed that this deal was a great bargain!
"Ke, Ketong..."
"Your Highness, go and rest for a while. We will continue later."
When Lei Gan sang off-tune again, Lin Xiao immediately chose to end the class.
"it is good."
The future beast king’s head was almost resting on the ground.
When he heard the get out of class was over, he disappeared in an instant, faster than the speed of running for life.
Lin Xiao almost couldn't help laughing out loud. He stood there waiting for a long time before returning to the house.
She knew that there was more than one person eavesdropping secretly, because the cultivation skills that were fed back came from at least four sources.
However, Teacher Lin didn't really want to pay attention to these things. The most urgent task was to find the difference between himself and Lei Qian and even the thunder beast clan as soon as possible.
Lei Qian is not a stupid person and his attitude towards learning is also very positive. The reason why he cannot speak the truth well is not due to subjective factors, but because objective conditions do not allow it.
As soon as he said this, his tone changed unconsciously.
What I think in my heart is completely different from what I say.
Realizing this, Lin Xiao's expression almost couldn't be maintained.
Rules, this is the power of rules!
Lei Gan is not recognized by the rules behind the truth, so why can I do it?
Lin Xiao would not consider himself as the son of destiny. There must be a special reason for this.
They were both far away from the real world, and they were both not born in the real world. What was so special about this bumpkin from the Great Thousand World...
Suddenly, she was stunned, and then with a complicated expression that she had never seen before, she took out a small stone from the ring.
The gray stone, which had completely lost its luster, looked unattractive and would be inconspicuous when thrown on the ground.
But this is indeed the only proof left to the world by a powerful person from an unknown realm.
[Teacher, you asked me to drink water soaked with your bone residue, and you said it would be good for me. So you were joking, weren't you? ]
