& A few feet away from the dueling platform, rows of stone steps from low to high were built around the entire dueling platform. +, these stone steps are not for walking, but for everyone to sit and watch the battle.

The stone steps can seat a lot of people, and there are several corridors in the middle, which is convenient for everyone to walk, and it is also convenient for the little friars of the border city management hall to carry their burdens and provide tea and meals along the way.

Such a commoner-like platform and seat reminded Zhong Zhen of the juggling he had seen in Yunzhi County before. In the middle, someone led the monkey around, beating gongs and drums, and the people next to him stood and cheered, which was very rustic.

It was easy for the immortal cultivators to get some decent materials to build a house, and they could obviously make it more magnificent, but this place was so simple. There was no tile overhead, and everyone sat on the stone steps, not even a soft cushion.

This does not affect the receipt of a ticket for a spirit stone, nor does it affect everyone's bets to win or lose.

Zhong Zhen sat on the roof of a shop in the distance, and there were no less than twenty or thirty people who watched the fight for free. All the rooftops next to it were like this, full of people, all looking at them with relish.

At such a distance, the Qi Refining Cultivator's eyes could be seen clearly, but the vast majority of the Border City Cultivators still preferred to sit in front of them with the Spirit Stone to see, and the picture was that lively.

The shop underneath doesn't care if the roof is occupied, and it won't collapse if it sits for dozens of people anyway, and it's very sturdy. In case someone watches the duel, maybe someone will be embarrassed to come down and look at his goods.

These little things, the shop owners don't mind at all.

Zhong Zhen had already asked the person next to him about the various rules of the duel. Although he was dressed as an evil cultivator and even covered his face under a black scarf, the few people next to him were very enthusiastic. You say a word, I say a word, and explain the details of the rules in great detail.

It seems that the more simple and primitive it is, the more it can arouse the wildness in everyone's hearts.

The magic weapon spells that can be used by duelists are strictly restricted, and the fight will not seem boring, but more intense. Not being able to use the elixir that replenishes the aura means that you didn't kill the other party after indiscriminately urging the magic weapon. It is possible to be defeated.

Talismans should be saved for the most critical time, and it is best not to use spiritual weapons that exceed their own cultivation too much, but a sturdy and durable ordinary magic weapon is the most suitable for everyone. The vestment is also a magic weapon. You can choose to use it as one of the magic weapons, but most people still think it is better to choose another defensive weapon.

Caution and speed, as well as experience against the enemy, are quite important to determine who will die in the end. but to see who is strong.

You come up with a trick. I blocked it with a defensive weapon. In exchange for me, you use a defensive magic weapon to block it. This type of fighting is obviously boring, so the duel in the first half does not arouse the enthusiasm of the audience.

Fortunately, the monks on the stage had already finished fighting the aura, and the next was almost hand-to-hand fighting, and in the high-pitched shouts of the audience, I saw blood splattered all over the stage, bones were broken, and weapons were chopped up.

The first one ended quickly. It's two Qi Refining Cultivators. The losing side had to kowtow a few times in the end to understand the grievances.

If you sign a life and death certificate, then it doesn't matter if you kill it. If it comes to the end, you will regret it. You can kneel and beg for mercy. It depends on the mood of the winner, and if the mood is still good, the loser can be left behind.

However, most of the duels did not sign such a mortal treaty, and as long as one side was unable to fight again, the adjudicator declared the winner.

According to the mortgage signed before the duel, the winner will naturally get a lot of jackpots, which will be paid by the losing side.

The cultivation of the later rounds is higher, and the moves are also a lot more exciting.

Zhong Zhen looked at it, although there was a lot of blood sprinkled on the ground, and even the bones of the duelists could be seen, there was no feeling of blood boiling.

The main thing is that the monks don't look good at all in fighting, they all attack with aura from afar, and when they run out of aura, they have to fight in close combat. Melee combat is not the same, fancy and redundant moves, embarrassing dodge, as if you don't know any other fighting skills except for blocking attacks with the defensive equipment in your hand.

Moreover, except for a few who fight for their lives, most of the duels are actually very child's play, for some trivial things, so the fight is not so ruthless, and each fights carefully to fight for aura. found that his aura was used up, and the other party still had a lot left, so he quickly admitted defeat.

She was very puzzled, as if she had heard a passing monk say that the monks in the border city were very savage. If this is the case, then the other monks who are not barbaric are not all embroiderers.

Zhong Zhen even felt that these monks were like weapons that had been refined, and it seemed that they needed to let Senior Chen return to the furnace to refine them again.

After watching about a dozen performances, she felt that the biggest role of this high platform was not to resolve disputes, but to let people from the border cities come to watch the drama and have a lively show.

She looked at Mu Qingsong next to her, who was looking at the sky boredly, and immediately smiled.

After a slight cliché, Mu Qingsong answered the question in Zhong Zhen's heart, the vast majority of immortal cultivators relied on magic weapon formations and spells, and there were very few who knew how to fight in close combat. If you don't wear a strong defensive magic robe and try to attack in close combat, you haven't waited to get close to the other party, and you have already been blown up by the magic weapon.

Zhong Zhen looked at the ordinary mortal robe on Mu Qingsong's body, thinking that he either had a very strong body and bones, and he didn't even wear a magic robe. Either you have the best treasure in your hand, and you don't wait for someone to make a big move, and you will kill the other party first.

Staying in a relatively cheap inn, Zhong Zhen rested for two days to recover from the dizziness caused by the teleportation array, and by the way, she secretly sold some extremely rare spirit fruits here, so she decided to set off for the Ghost Abyss.

Stealing is a science, just like cheating.

If there are hundreds of spirit fruit trees in a garden, it is difficult to find three or five from each tree. The same is true for the spirit grass, they are all dozens of plants every other day, and they pick one plant, and they also very intimately smooth out the dug ground. There are thousands of less in such a large spiritual grass garden, and you can't see it at all.

Besides, she saw that Xiao Bufan just collected it casually and went to alchemy, and she didn't count the numbers at all.

In addition to the spirit grass and spirit fruit, Zhong Zhen also stole some spiritual spring water, and every time Xiao Bufan entered the space, he had to take a bath in it. She filled the spiritual spring full of two water storage hyacinths, and then took some ordinary water from the waterfall and poured it into the spiritual spring to fill it.

As for whether to pour a small half gourd water to take a bath, Zhong Zhen was very hesitant, she was not used to soaking in the remaining bath water from others.

These bath waters have not been sold for the time being, and she is worried that the spirit fruit will be easy to spoil, so she will have to get rid of it a little more.

Even if he said that he wanted to empty Xiao Bufan's space, Zhong Zhen was still a little angry when it came to the end.

She has been in this habit since she was a child, and stealing things is always not particularly peaceful, so when she goes to the rich family's house to touch the treasury, it is all petty theft and makes something inconspicuous.

First, it is convenient to sell stolen goods, and secondly, I feel that it is not a bad thing, but a robbery of the rich and helping the poor. Of course, it was she, a poor man, who helped. (To be continued.) )
