[BL, MTL] A Love Letter to Monsters (Unlimited Flow)

Chapter 20: Love Complex (20)

　　The sound of hawking in the market was heard loudly. The entire alley was paved with yellow stones, and it seemed that a sandstorm could break out at any time.

　　There are many buyers and sellers, but they are all individual and family traders. A mat is spread underneath, and the goods can be started to be sold.

　　Most of them sell handicrafts such as clay pots and tiles.

　　There are also sellers of various rain-praying charms, and the business is also very good.

　　Bai Sang knew from the moment they easily accepted the setting that he was the "high priest" that these people were still in a superstitious state of believing in metaphysics.

　　He had a black head and all kinds of strange clothes, so no one thought it was strange that he and the monster boy were passing by like this.

　　A vendor stopped Bai Sang and enthusiastically promoted his product: "Do you want to see this? It is said to be a gem made from the eyes of monsters. Placing it at home can pray for rain!"

　　The person grabbing the business next to him didn't give him any face, and directly exposed it:

　　"Ha, he is lying. How could the monster eyes be used to make so many gems if they are so precious? If there were really so many, the entire desert would be an oasis now!"

　　The merchant was refuted by him face to face, and he couldn't stand it. He felt guilty and shouted loudly:

　　"Why is it fake? If I catch a monster, I will definitely use one eye to test the legend, and I will cut out the other eye to make a gem collection!"

　　"Just like you..."

　　There are many merchants like these two people along the way, selling things with monster eyes as a gimmick.

　　The monster boy next to him clenched his fists tightly. Although he couldn't see his expression, Bai Sang felt that he would rush up and fight with the two at any time.

　　Bai Sang quickly held his hand and shook his head secretly at him.

　　The temperature passed from the fingertips. It should be human temperature, but it was like a fire, burning hot.

　　He let go of his hand as if he had been burned.

　　Fortunately, Bai Sang was negotiating with them, and all his attention was on the merchant in front of him, not on him.

　　Bai Sang found out from asking the surrounding vendors that their legends were all hearsay. In short, all the vendors in the market knew that it had been widely circulated among them for a long time.

　　All the vendors want to reverse the monster eye.

　　--Yes, after having the monster eyes, instead of burying them in the sand and praying for rain as in the legend, they want to sell them at a high price.

　　This proves that this legend is not so strong. At least many businessmen do not believe it and only want to profit from it.

　　Otherwise, the monsters would not be put up for auction.

　　This is very intriguing.

　　If Bai Sang thought about it, he would believe that it was artificially stirred up rather than the legend spreading naturally.

　　The price is stirred up in the business circle, and the beautiful legend of praying for rain is used to drive up the price, so that more people will buy it and make huge profits. In fact, the monster eye has no such function at all. Just because it is scarce and more mysterious, it has become a prop for businessmen to obtain business opportunities.
