May is the transition between spring and summer.

The fragrance of flowers is pervasive, and the mountains are green. The sun is starting to bloom in its warm side gradually.

Under the clear blue sky, white clouds float like cotton wool.

On Qingmao Mountain, the Qingmao bamboo forest is still as straight as a gun, pointing to the sky. Wild grass grows everywhere, dotted with unknown wildflowers. As soon as the breeze blows, the weeds undulate, and the rich smell of pollen and grass hits the face.

On the mountainside, there are plenty of terraced rice fields. Layer by layer, step by step, the tender green wheat seedlings were planted, and from a distance it looked like a verdant and tender green sea.

There are many farmers in the terraces, busy working. Some are cleaning ditches and waterways to divert water, while others are rolling up their trouser legs and standing in the fields to plant seedlings.

These people are naturally mortals with foreign surnames, and the people of the Guyue Clan do not operate such a cheap business.

Jingle Bell ......

The sound of camel bells was faintly heard in the spring breeze.

The peasants straightened up and turned their heads down the hill.

I saw a caravan like a colorful long worm, slowly poking its head out from the side of the mountain road.

"It's a caravan!"

"Yes, it's May, and it's time for the caravan to come. ”

Adults know it. The urchins gave up playing in the water and the mud in their hands, and ran to the caravan in a hurry.

There are 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang, and Qingmao Mountain is just one of them. On each mountain, there are cottages inhabited by people, and people maintain the villages with blood and kinship.

Between the mountains, the mountains and forests are deep and secluded, and the rocks and cliffs are steep. The environment is complex, inhabited by a large number of fierce beasts or strange Gu insects.

It is simply difficult for mortals to get through guò. If a single individual wants to overcome these difficult obstacles, he must have at least the cultivation of a third-turn Gu master.

As a result, the economy is sluggish and trade is difficult. The main form of trade was the caravan.

Only by forming such a large scale as a caravan can a group of Gu masters have the ability to help each other, overcome difficulties and obstacles on the way, and travel from one mountain to another.

The arrival of the caravan was like a bowl of boiling water, and it was poured abruptly into the calm and peaceful Qingmao Mountain.

"In previous years, it was April, but this year it was May that the caravan came. But it's finally here. When the innkeeper heard the news, he was really relieved. Business at the inn was extremely light in the rest of the month. Only counting on the arrival of the caravan can bring benefits that last for a year.

At the same time, he still has some green bamboo wine in his inventory, which can be sold to the caravan.

Not only inns, but also liquor stores will also boom.

The caravan drove into the Guyue Cottage one after another, and the first one was a treasure brass toad. This toad is two meters and a half high, full of orange, with a wide and thick back and wart pimples on it, just like the huge copper rivets on the ancient city gates.

On the back of the treasure brass toad, a large pile of goods is fixed with thick hemp ropes. At first glance, it looks like Bao Toad is carrying a huge burden.

A middle-aged man, with a pockmarked face and a fat belly, sat cross-legged on the head of the toad. His eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and he hugged his fists to greet the people of Guyue Village around him.

This person's surname is Jia Mingfu, and he has four transformations, and he is the leader of this caravan.

Bao Toad jumped forward slightly, and Jia Fu sat on the head of the toad, flat and stable. When he jumped, he was as tall as the window on the second floor. Even if it lands, it must be higher than the first floor of the bamboo building.

The street, which used to be wide, suddenly seemed a little narrow. The treasure brass toad was like a monster, breaking into the bamboo buildings.

After the toad, it was a big fat worm. The eyes are like stained glass windows, bright and colorful. It is fifteen meters long and resembles a silkworm in size. But the surface was covered with a thick layer of black glazed leather armor. The leather armor was also piled with a canopy of goods, tied in a loop with hemp rope. In the gap between the goods, there were Gu masters sitting one by one, some old and some young.

There were also mortals, all sturdy warriors, who followed the black-skinned fat beetle slowly forward on the ground.

After the fat beetle, there are colorful camel chickens, fluffy mountain spiders, winged snakes with two wings, and so on. But these are only a few, and most of them are still dominated by toads.

These toads resemble the Treasure Brass Toad, but are smaller and have the size of a cow or horse. Carrying goods and people, puffing out their stomachs, they walked one by one.

The caravan meandered deep into the cottage.

Along the way, the children widened their eyes and watched curiously, screaming and marveling.

The windows on the second floor were opened one after another, and the mountain people observed them closely. Some of their eyes were shining with fear, while others were waving their hands to show a warm welcome.

"Brother Jia, I'm a little late this year, and I've worked hard all the way. As the patriarch, Gu Yuebo personally welcomed the leader of the caravan.

Jia Fu is the identity of the fourth-turn Gu master, and if the third-turn family elder is in charge of the reception, it is undoubtedly a kind of neglect and contempt.

Jia Fu clenched his fists with both hands and sighed: "This year's journey is not very smooth, and I encountered a group of ghostly bats on the road, and I lost a lot of good hands. In the cliff mountain again, I encountered the mountain fog, and I really didn't dare to go. So there was a lot of delay. Brother Gu Yue has been waiting for a long time. ”

Between the words, it is very polite.

Guyue Cottage needs caravans to come to trade every year, and caravans also need to be harmonious and wealthy.

"Hehehe, it's good to come. Please, the clan has prepared food and drinks, let me wash the dust for my brother. Gu Yuebo stretched out his hand and invited.

"The patriarch is polite, too polite. Jia Fuzuo was flattered.

The caravan arrived at the Qingmao Mountain boundary in the morning, and was stationed in the Guyue Mountain Cottage at noon. In the evening, a large area of temporary shops has formed around the cottage. All kinds of red, blue, yellow and green tall tents are set up, and there are countless small stalls stuffed between the tents.

Night had fallen, but it was brightly lit.

An endless stream of pedestrians poured into the place from the stockade. There are mortals, and there are Gu masters. The children jumped and jumped with joy, and the faces of the adults also showed a look of joy like a holiday.

Fang Yuan followed the flow of people and walked in here alone.

Crowds of people are bustling with piles around the stalls, or constantly coming and going at the entrance of the tent.

There was a lot of shouting all around.

"Come on, take a look. The high-grade Blue Sea Cloud Tea Brick, drinking this sip of tea, is as happy as a fairy! Even if people don't drink it, feeding the tea Gu is also cheap and beautiful. A piece only costs five yuan stones!"

"Brute Force Heavenly Bull Gu, the Gu Master urges it, and it can skyrocket the power of a bull. Walk through and can't miss it!"

"Intimate grass, the best intimate grass, big guy look at this color, it is as fresh as if it has just been picked. One pound and two yuan stones, what a cheap price......"

When Fang Yuan heard this, his footsteps paused slightly, and he followed the sound and looked over.

I saw an ostrich pulling a two-wheeled cart. There was a pile of pink and green grass on the cart. Each stick of grass is a meter long and very slender, averaging only the width of a fingernail. Some grasses also have red heart-shaped buds at the tips.

Zhixin grass is one of the auxiliary food materials for Gu worms, and its value lies in the fact that it can be combined with some food to feed Gu worms.

For example, Fang Yuan fed the Moonlight Gu, and he needed to feed two petals per meal. If it is mixed with a bosom grass, the moonlight Gu will be full after eating a piece of moon orchid petals.

There are only two yuan stones for a pound of bosom grass, and one yuan stone for every ten moon orchid petals. After a little calculation, I know that it is more cost-effective to mix with bosom grass to feed Gu worms.

"Half a month ago, I killed Gao Wan, because I used the Moonlight Gu in the academy, and I was fined thirty yuan stones. But later, the Mo family compensated me with thirty yuan, which is not a loss. These days, I robbed twice, totaling one hundred and eighteen yuan stones. But recently, I have been consuming the refined mid-level true element, warming and nourishing the four walls of the void, and I have to consume three yuan stones every day. In addition, the feeding cost of Gu insects, his own living expenses, and the yuan stone invested in the continuous purchase of green bamboo wine. Now I still have ninety-eight pieces in my hand. ”

Ever since Fang Yuan killed someone, the murderous and ruthless image had penetrated deep into the hearts of the students, and no one dared to challenge him for a while. It became much easier for him to rob. Only a handful of people dared to confront him at a time.

Fang Yuan calculated in his heart, then shifted his gaze and continued to walk towards the depths of this temporary shop area.

On the bosom grass stall, there are a bunch of people around. They are all Gu masters or students, holding Yuan Shi in their hands and rushing to buy.

It wasn't that Fang Yuan didn't have the money to buy this bosom grass, but he didn't have the time.

"If you remember correctly, that leprosy toad is in that shop. In a previous life, a Gu Master gambled on it on the first night, so he made a lot of money. I have to hurry, I can't lose a big deal because of a small one. ”
