Chapter 50: Meng Poling

There are martial arts practitioners in the world who have weak foundations and poor muscles and bones, and although they have superior exercises to practice, they do not have the assistance of panacea, and it is in vain to let them be diligent. For martial arts cultivators who want to wash their muscles and bones and strengthen their roots, the Heaven Replenishing Pill is really beneficial, after all, it is refined by the world's holy land of medicine refining, Izumo Valley, and only one Heaven Replenishing Pill is needed, which is worth decades of penance.

Therefore, this mending pill is difficult to find, no matter how much money you spend, you can't ask for it.

Every other year, Izumo Valley would take out ten Heavenly Replenishing Pills and spread them to the martial arts rivers and lakes in the form of exchange.

It is said that some people exchange the exercises of martial arts power, and some people trade them for heavenly materials and earth treasures, but it is impossible to know what can enter the eyes of Yungu.

If such a heavenly treasure as the Heavenly Pill appears once, it will definitely be traded by others. Therefore, when Shopkeeper Wu said that the Heaven Replenishment Pill, even Qin Chuan began to know the preciousness of such treasures, and he was secretly thinking about how to get them.

Shopkeeper Wu sat back at the table at this moment, holding his chin with his hand, and thoughtfully remembered the matter of returning to the ghost market: "It was two years ago, because my disciples were seriously ill and needed a taste of medicinal materials, if I went to Guiyun Sect and other places, although I could find it, but others may not borrow me, if I went directly to the door to rob it, our sect was heavily guarded, and it was difficult to enter." If I waste my energy and get lucky enough to enter the inner court, it will be too much time, and I can't wait. Thinking that the ghost market is messy, there are often people who don't know the goods to sell heaven and earth treasures, so I think maybe these medicinal materials can be found in the ghost market, if not, I can only think of another way. So that night I put on my black robe and put on my mask and went into the ghost market. ”

Qin Chuan asked, "Shopkeeper Wu, where did this ghost market come from?"

Shopkeeper Wu ignored Qin Chuan, and still said to himself: "I don't know where this ghost market is, I only know that there are a lot of old locust trees planted, which are bare, and there is always a lot of dense fog rising here, and I can't see each other clearly five steps apart." Under the old locust tree in the ghost market, there are many stall owners sitting or lying down, waiting for customers to come.

But this is only the outer layer of the ghost market, which sells some unpopular things, such as digging someone's ancestral grave and stealing some funeral items, or some counterfeit famous calligraphy and paintings, in fact, it seems that there is no difference between the transaction of Pingyangfang, and some antique dealers often stay here. ”

"But walking along the rows of old locust trees, you can go to the inner layer, this is the ghost market that martial arts practitioners call it, and there are heavenly and earth treasures, medicinal herbs, sect inner pills, etc., which can be described as full of wonders. The ghost market on the inner floor is so huge, I walked around for two hours before I came to the end, and like the stall owners on the outer layer before, this ghost market on the inner floor also sat on the stall chair, waiting for the wisher to take the bait without saying a word. ”

When Qin Chuan heard that the ghost market was so lively, he also asked curiously: "Do the people in this ghost market shout and drink? Otherwise, how can others know what he is selling?"

Lao Dao glared at Qin Chuan, and seemed to be helpless about his question: "The person who shouts in the ghost market, if he doesn't have a martial arts cultivation, then he will be looted by others in a moment, after all, the people who enter the ghost market are all masked and do a little murder and goods, who can find out?" After speaking, Lao Dao looked at the shopkeeper Wu and motioned for him to continue.

Shopkeeper Wu was a little dry, ready to get up to pour a cup of tea, Lao Dao saw this, handed over the wine bag on his waist, Shopkeeper Wu waved his hand, or poured a cup of tea and sat down again.

Lao Dao said with a stern face: "Disrespectful, I forgot that you don't drink." ”

Shopkeeper Wu took a sip of hot tea and continued: "I can also drink the taste of wine when I drink tea, just as you said when you were cultivating, you see things and contemplate the mind, you see tea, but I drink wine. ”

Lao Dao thought for a while, as if he had said this, but he still took a sip of the wine bag: "I said so, but among tea and wine, if there is wine, I will definitely drink." Haha, I am such a sanctimonious person, I must be looked down upon by those scholars in the Tai Academy, but it doesn't matter, I eat all the wine and meat, and the Dao heart is still there. ”

When Qin Chuan saw Lao Dao drinking, his mouth began to be greedy, and he took the wine bag from Lao Dao's hand and took a sip.

Qin Chuan's way of drinking is different from the old way, Qin Chuan is to take a small sip and drink the flavor of time, and the old way is to be happy and revenge, and drink it all in one gulp.

However, after just three sips of this wine, Qin Chuan actually began to cough dryly, and seemed to be very unsuitable for this spirit. Could it be that the April green that was taken back from the Dongfu Dart Bureau is a fake wine? But just after taking a sip, the April green in this wine bag actually tasted like this.

Qin Chuan was very puzzled and asked, "Why do I get dizzy after only a few sips of April Green now, I wasn't drunk before." ”

Hearing Qin Chuan's cough, Lao Dao retrieved the wine bag: "You used to have a stubborn illness because of your body, and often had aura entering the body and not coming out, jumping around in the body, hurting the internal organs and other places, and I let you drink since you were a child, because at the same time as the smell of wine flows out, it can open up your fourteen meridians and let the aura of heaven and earth go out from here, so there is nothing wrong with drinking alcohol since you were a child, even if you drink four or five catties." It's just that now you have formed two places in Danhai and Kongshan, although it is not a great consummation, but it can still contain a little aura of heaven and earth. You drink now, and therefore you will be drunk. ”

Qin Chuan heard Lao Dao's explanation and began to understand.

It turned out that drinking alcohol before was just to flow out the aura of heaven and earth, so no matter how much wine he drank, he would be taken away when the aura of heaven and earth flowed out. However, now after condensing the Danhai and the Empty Mountain, the aura of heaven and earth is contained in the body, if you drink again, the smell of this wine gathers in the body and there is no overflow of the aura of heaven and earth, it is expected that Qin Chuan often drinks alcohol, and it is inevitable that he will get drunk.

Therefore, Qin Chuan looked at Shopkeeper Wu and said: "I just choked on my throat by strong wine, Shopkeeper Wu don't be surprised, please continue to talk about what is the difference in this ghost market." ”

Shopkeeper Wu looked at Lao Dao and Qin Chuan, and also told the whole thing without concealment: "In this ghost market, both sides don't know their identities, there are loose cultivators in the martial arts rivers and lakes, there are outcasts from all sects, and there are letter posts above the temple, so for the seller, if you shout, everyone will know what is sold, and when the time comes, there are many martial arts practitioners gathered on the stalls, and there will be people with bad intentions following behind before sunrise." When the time comes, he will be really guilty, and he will not escape. Therefore, in this ghost market, if someone shouts, there are only two possibilities, one is a strong martial arts practitioner who is not afraid of the young people at all, and the other is a novice who has just come and does not understand the rules of this ghost market. ”

Hearing the rules of the ghost market, Qin Chuan began to get up slowly, walked to the side of the shopkeeper Wu, took a pen and paper and said, "What are the rules in this ghost market?"

Shopkeeper Wu stretched out three thumbs and said slowly: "One, don't ask where the goods come from; second, don't take off the mask; third, get the things you want and leave quickly." ”

Qin Chuan continued to ask, "Where is the Heaven Replenishing Pill in the Ghost City?"

Shopkeeper Wu motioned to Qin Chuan to put down the pen and paper and asked him to listen carefully first:" In this ghost market, ordinary stall owners must be covered with oilcloth to sell the goods, but there are also some stall owners who have built their own houses, and even in the ghost market there are taverns and other places, when I walked to the second floor of the tavern before, I found that downstairs sat an old woman-like person, dressed in tatters, her hair was strung with a hairpin, a string of bells hung around her waist, and the sachets on her body were blackened, apparently because she had used it for a long time, and she set up a stall with two burdens in front of her, and placed some common medicinal herbs, like a merchant. I saw that he sat there for a long time, but no one stepped forward to ask, martial arts practitioners came to the ghost market, but they came to seek some heavenly treasures, superior exercises, etc., not for these mortal things, but I was deeply interested in them. ”

Hearing that the old woman was behaving so strangely, Qin Chuan also began to mutter: "It seems incredible to risk your life to come to the ghost market, and you are just selling some ordinary things. ”

Wu shopkeeper said: "I was thinking the same way, thinking that the crazy woman of which family had come here by mistake, so I went down to explore one or two, at this time, a team of people came out of the tavern in the ghost market, I don't know why the same stall owner quarreled, the two sides fought, the fight was inseparable, according to the realm, both sides are Qiyuan realm. ”

The realm of martial arts cultivation in the world is divided into synaesthesia realm and spirit gathering realm at the beginning, and these two realms have just reached the point of driving away things, which can drive the aura of heaven and earth for their use;

These three realms are called the lower three realms. Often, the martial arts cultivators in the world are mostly those in the lower three realms.

Therefore, when he heard that there were Qiyuan realm powerhouses in the ghost market, Qin Chuan was also weak in his heart, thinking that Lao Dao and himself could fight with him for a few rounds. If you meet a strong person in the realm of Hedao with a higher level of cultivation, then it is really as the old Tao said, if you can't beat it, you can run, and next time when your realm is improved, you will find the field back.

Shopkeeper Wu continued at this moment: "After all, that team of people is overwhelming, and in less than a few rounds, they beat the stall owner half to death, and the goods in front of him are scattered all over the place, so a lot of people gathered next to him to watch the excitement. The old woman had nothing to do beside her, so she also looked at the field in a daze. This tavern sells good wine from all the countries of the world, and one of the people in that team has probably drunk too much, and when he saw the nearest old woman looking at himself for unknown reasons, he couldn't help but be angry, and he raised his foot and kicked over, and I saw that this was also a help, and after a while, this group of people was bored and left. ”

Shopkeeper Wu lightly omitted the details of fighting with this team, as if it was not worth mentioning at all.

However, the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional.

Qin Chuan secretly thought: This Qingzhou City is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the shopkeeper of an inn, I didn't expect that one person could block a team of people in the Qiyuan realm, and it seemed that he didn't suffer any injuries. I was thinking about bargaining with him to live in a Xuanzi room, so it seems that it is a good thing that others do not increase the price. After all, living in the Tongfu Inn where the strong man sits, he can sleep peacefully.

Without waiting for Qin Chuan to react, Shopkeeper Wu continued: "After the group left, I took a closer look at the things on this old woman's stall, and the other items were of course mortal, and they didn't attract me. It's just that there's a thing, in a black bottle, and it looks like it's been around for some years. Through the bottle, I can feel the strong aura running inside, and there is a faint existence of a magic circle inside, such items should be treasures. Just as he was about to take another look, he found that he could no longer perceive what was inside. ”

"Is it the Heaven Replenishing Pill inside?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Hey, don't worry, kid. That night, just as I was about to ask, the old woman spoke first, saying that for the sake of my help, don't waste any more energy. I saw that this black bottle must be a legendary sect elixir, which might cure my disciple's serious illness, so I was ready to exchange it for other treasures, but this old woman was indifferent and had no intention of exchanging it. ”

When Lao Dao heard it at this moment, he was also interested: "Coming to the ghost market, but not trading, and there is a sectarian elixir hidden in the mortal world, this old woman is interesting." ”

Shopkeeper Wu also agreed and said: "Yes, I also thought the same way, took out all the things on her body, but she didn't raise her head, but lowered her head, glancing at the people with masks coming and going, it can be seen that she is waiting for someone destined to appear, I saw that she had no intention of exchanging it, so before sunrise, she left the ghost market alone." ”

When Qin Chuan heard this, he also asked curiously: "Shopkeeper Wu, that old woman has no intention of trading, so how did you know that the old woman's black bottle contains the legendary Heavenly Pill that can wash and quench muscles and bones, and strengthen the foundation and peiyuan, instead of other things?"

Shopkeeper Wu glanced at the sky, and then popped out a spiritual aura to circle the three of them again, and then said confidently: "Because, I recognize the string of bells around her waist! No matter how she walks, but the string of bells does not ring, if ordinary people look at it, it is only that the bell is an ornament, so it doesn't hurt to be empty." It's just that I looked carefully, obviously the bell hit the inner wall, but no sound came out, but there was a Sanskrit sound in my head, and at this moment I had to make people feel uplifted, the old woman in front of me was definitely a strong man who had been famous in the martial arts for a long time, so I dared to conclude that what was contained in the black bottle must be the pill of mending heaven. It's ridiculous to say, she doesn't need my help at all, on the contrary, I saved the group of cultivators of the Qiyuan realm. ”

"This is the Meng Poling of Izumo Valley, for martial arts practitioners, what they are most afraid of is such things that damage the sea of consciousness, and only people from Izumo Valley can get the Heaven Replenishment Pill so easily. Lao Dao heard the string of bells hanging around the old woman's waist, and already knew who the other party was.

Legend has it that the valley lord of Izumo Valley has a confidante, few people in the rivers and lakes know his surname, and few people have seen his face, but he knows that he is deeply loved by the valley lord of Cloud Valley. Even in the Izumo Valley, a paradise was built for it, planted with spiritual herbs to help him practice, and in the eyes of the world, this is a fairy couple.

It's just that for some reason, this confidante suddenly disappeared one day, and he didn't know his whereabouts, and the valley lord of Izumo Valley even paid him a lot of elixirs, begging the cultivators of the martial arts rivers and lakes to follow his traces. However, after several decades, it was still not found. I heard that this confidante took away a string of bells before leaving, which can penetrate the sea of consciousness of martial arts practitioners, turning them into puppets and at the mercy of others.

Although the people in the martial arts rivers and lakes covet the elixir of the cloud valley, they are helpless against the treasure that penetrates the sea, after all, the martial arts practice method is to be able to use the aura of heaven and earth, even if it is not good, it can fight a few moves. However, in the face of Meng Poling, he was powerless, so he could only give up after pursuing this confidante of the valley lord of Izumo Valley.

Hearing that what Shopkeeper Wu said was Meng Poling, Qin Chuan was convinced. But Qin Chuan opened his mouth and asked, "Then if you reveal the location of this old woman to the valley lord of Izumo Valley, then you can get a lot of heavenly and earthly treasures." ”

Shopkeeper Wu shook his head: "Izumo Valley is tens of thousands of miles away from here, and when the valley master of Izumo Valley arrives here, this old woman doesn't know where to go." There are many ghost markets in this world, who knows when the next time I meet her?"

Qin Chuan heard what Shopkeeper Wu said, and he also had a general understanding of the ghost market, but he still didn't know anything: "Shopkeeper Wu, even if I enter the ghost market in Qingzhou City and meet this old woman by luck, how can she be willing to give me the Mending Heaven Pill." ”

Shopkeeper Wu glanced at Lao Dao angrily, and said to Qin Chuan with bad intentions: "Hehe, maybe the one next to you knows." ”
