Chapter 10: Luo Xue Ning!

  "It seems that this time, I really have to bleed a lot." After calculating the estimated cost in his mind, Xiao Hong's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't back down, because this was a necessary purchase. He had worked hard to get to where he was today, what for? Wasn't it all so he could create magic patterns?

  It's 2:30 pm, I'll hurry up and make a round trip to Taiwu City, should be no problem.

  He slightly bent down, and then crawled under the bed, rummaged through a pile of tattered clothes, pried open a plank, and underneath it was a small, shabby iron box. Opening the box revealed a large stash of coins, including glittering gold coins and silver-white coins. This was Xiao Hong's entire savings, worth eighteen gold coins in total.

  He took out three gold coins from inside, thought for a moment, and then reluctantly took out two more, put them in his bosom, and then put the iron box back in its original place, covering it with the wooden board and tattered clothes.

  He put on a decent blue coarse linen garment, slightly tidied up his disheveled hair, wore his dagger, a backpack and the indispensable five gold coins, Xiao Hong locked the door of his home, and rushed straight out of the quarry, sprinting down to the town at the foot of the mountain.

  Due to Xiao Hong's driving force having been upgraded to two levels of driving, he usually doesn't feel much change, but when he is running at full speed, he suddenly feels that his body has become much lighter, especially his physical strength, which has increased significantly. Originally, Xiao Hong needed to rest halfway, but now he can run all the way to the foot of the mountain in one breath.

  And stopped in front of a stone-paved road, waiting for the magic tattoo bus to Wu City, this road is also the only way from Donglin Quarry to Wu City.

  Soon, a shuttle-shaped magic pattern bus came from afar and stopped beside Xiao Hong and the villagers, its door opening with a creak.

  The driver's cab of the magic pattern bus has only one crystal ball-like object, which is a driving force transmitter. The driver needs to manipulate the magic pattern of the magic pattern bus to move and turn.

  He tossed two copper coins into the coin box and casually sat down in a position.

  Tai Wu City was not unfamiliar to Xiao Hong, he had been there several times before, most of which were with Li Le. That guy would rush to Tai Wu City as soon as he had some money, squander it all and then return contentedly to continue mining diligently.

  Five or six minutes later, as the carriage continued to move forward, a very luxurious small magic pattern car suddenly appeared in front of it, with a value of at least 100 gold coins, and it was parked right in the middle of the road.

  When I saw this small tattooed car, the originally speeding tattooed car on the road suddenly slowed down and carefully drove around it, looking like a rabbit carefully passing by a tiger.

  Through the car window, Xiao Hong could clearly see that beside the luxurious small magic patterned car, seven or eight fully armed riders were standing, wearing battle robes with guardian magic patterns, and a magic pattern package at their waist like a belt. Each of them looked majestic and powerful, even Xiao Hong couldn't help but take a few more glances.

  And these seven or eight people are now standing in a neat queue, with one guy wearing a purple battle robe, seemingly giving some kind of instructions.

  "Hey, hey, what kind of people are these? Our Magic Coach saw them and it's like a mouse seeing a cat!"

  "You're clearly an outsider. You don't even recognize the elite Medicine Boy of Da Yu Shi, Sang Hongyun? In Tai Wu City, who dares to provoke someone from Sang Hongyun's side?"

  "Yes, especially after Sang Hongyun reached the third level of Yu Shi, he was even more powerful in Tai Wu City. You haven't heard, have you? The other day, the youngest daughter of the Ze Lei family fell ill, and many medicine masters were invited but were at a loss for what to do. They wanted to ask Sang Hongyun for help, but he simply said 'I'm busy' and hung up on them. The reason is that a long time ago, there was some bad blood between the Ze Lei family and Sang Hongyun himself."

  The people in the car spoke in hushed tones.

  Xiao Hong was just quietly listening, having been in the mining field for so long, the name of the Zele family was still slightly familiar to Xiao Hong, although it couldn't be said that they were a dominant force in Ta Wu City, but it was also not a small family.

  As for Shang Hongyun's behavior, Xiao Hong didn't want to make too many comments because he thought he had nothing much to do with Shang Hongyun anymore. So this matter has nothing to do with him at all. Now it's better for Xiao Hong to focus on his own affairs.

  However, although he thought so in his heart, Xiao Hong still intentionally or unintentionally turned his head and looked at the elite medicine boy who was gradually pulling away from him. It couldn't be denied that their equipment made Xiao Hong somewhat envious.

  After another ten or so minutes of driving, the magic pattern bus finally slowly entered the city of Taiwu. Although he had been here several times before, in Xiao Hong's eyes, Taiwu City was still very prosperous, with beautiful and tall buildings everywhere, and wide roads filled with magic pattern buses and domesticated spirits of all shapes and colors flowing endlessly.

  All sorts of music and hawkers' cries rose and fell in succession.

  Soon, the magic bus heading to Taiwu City stopped by the side of the road.

  Xiao Hong got off the bus and glanced around, identifying the direction before heading towards a large tattoo comprehensive store in Taiwu City based on his previous impression.

  Along the way, Xiao Hong's expression suddenly changed slightly, his eyes cast towards a tall building, on one side of the tall building was a huge holographic image, a female general in military uniform was giving a speech.

  This female general looks to be about the same age as Xiao Hong, seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful appearance and a well-proportioned figure. Especially in that military uniform, she looks noble, beautiful, and majestic.

  He is Luo Xue Ning, a lieutenant general of the Singa Kingdom and also the youngest general in the Tai Ge universe. He has three magic pattern warships under his command, with combat power that can be called fierce. He himself is also a powerful driver.

  He fixed his gaze on the gigantic image of Luo Xue Ning, and Xiao Hong slightly furrowed his brow. He had seen similar images before, but every time he saw Luo Xue Ning, Xiao Hong would have a strange feeling, one that even he found puzzling - it was as if his subconscious thought he knew Luo Xue Ning.

  But thinking back, how could that be possible? She's a heavenly pride, and what am I? A small miner constantly struggling on the edge of life.

  Unable to help himself, Xiao Hong couldn't help but smile wryly, and once again glanced at Luo Xue Ning's proud figure before striding away into the distance.

  After inquiring all the way, after walking for twenty or thirty minutes, Xiao Hong finally arrived at this magic tattoo comprehensive store called "Traveler".

  This is a large, three-story comprehensive magic rune store. The first and second floors sell tools, materials, and related products for making magic runes, while the third floor specializes in selling various finished magic runes and also accepts consignment services.

  He carefully pushed open the glass door, and inside, a dazzling array of tools and gadgets instantly dazzled Xiao Hong's eyes. Each counter and shelf was filled with all sorts of things.

  From carving knives to stone grinding tools, and these auxiliary tools, there are all kinds.

  "Excuse me, sir. Is there anything I can help you with?" A petite but elegant salesgirl slowly approached Xiao Hong's side and asked politely.

  As for Xiao Hong's outfit, she only glanced at it briefly and didn't show any great surprise, which was also a kind of professional demeanor.

  "Carved knife, and some other things." Xiao Hong responded, his heart somewhat apprehensive, this was still his first time spending money so lavishly.

  "Alright, follow me." As soon as he heard the words "Engraving Knife", the salesperson's expression became even more amiable. Only one kind of person has the ability to buy an Engraving Knife - a Pattern Maker, someone who is capable of independently manufacturing magical patterns. Although their status may vary, it is absolutely higher than that of ordinary civilians.

  Soon, the salesperson led Xiao Hong to a shelf where a set of exquisite engraved knives were neatly arranged. Each one was as thin as a fine pen, with standard six-piece sets and special eight-piece sets available.

  At first glance, Xiao Hong noticed that on the center of the shelf, in a slightly larger grid, was placed a set of exquisitely carved knives. The handles appeared to be made of top-quality jade and were a vibrant green color. The uniquely shaped blades seemed razor-sharp and radiated a dazzling light. Between the blade and handle, there was a faint magical pattern.

  The salesperson, who was quite observant, naturally noticed Xiao Hong's gaze and carefully took down the intricately carved knife that had caught his eye from the shelf. He placed it in front of Xiao Hong and said: "Sir, I didn't expect you to have such good taste despite your simple attire. This is one of our newly imported products, a 'Huan Diao' carving knife, which is truly a masterpiece. Only a few sets were imported into Taiwu City, and the handle is made from Snow Jade, allowing for better transmission of force. The blade tip is made from Frost Iron, capable of shattering rocks with ease. The magic patterns on the blade can..."

  The salesperson spoke eloquently, and Xiao Hong's eyes widened with excitement. Especially when he heard that the magic pattern on top could help him better conduct his power, improve his control efficiency, and make Xiao Hong feel itchy and uneasy at the same time.

  "How much?" Xiao Hong asked cautiously.

  "Ten gold coins." The salesperson replied.

  Hiss.

  When Xiao Hong heard this, the light in his eyes, which had originally shone brightly, suddenly became extremely dim. The ten gold coins meant something to Xiao Hong that didn't need to be said - it was half of all his family's assets.

  "It's too expensive, can't afford it." Xiao Hong didn't hide it and said somewhat awkwardly: "I heard there's a kind of knife with dozens of silver coins' worth of carvings, do you have one here?"

  The salesperson didn't show any change in expression, but felt somewhat disappointed in her heart.
