Chapter 283: Return to Kunlun
Kunlun Secret Realm, halfway between the entrance and the Kunlun Sword Sect, Su Shi stepped out of the gate of the Star Instrument. He left two anchor points in the Kunlun Secret Realm, and the other was in the Kunlun Sword Sect, mainly for security reasons.
The last time I came, everyone passed by a small town, located at the foot of Kunlun Sword Sect Mountain, although there are not many people, but the town is not small, but most of the houses are empty and uninhabited, which seems a little empty. It can be seen that it was once very glorious, but now it has fallen into decline, mainly because of the rapid decline in population.
Although the Kunlun Secret Realm is a cultivation realm, not everyone is suitable for cultivation, listening to Shi Cheng's statement, most of the people living in the town are mortal residents, who have lived in this place for generations, and were originally the families of the disciples of the Kunlun sects. Of course, if there are children, they will also send them to the sect, and most of those who have the potential to cultivate immortals can worship in the immortal gate.
But this is not necessarily a good thing, for various reasons, it is difficult for immortal cultivators to have children, but everyone is drilling into the immortal gate again, so that there are fewer and fewer people in the Kunlun Secret Realm. For example, the ancient town in front of you, although the scale is not small, there are only a few more than 100 people, and most of the buildings are empty.
The people here still retain the ancient living habits, including clothing and dressing, and when Su walked into the town in a 'strange costume', he was immediately regarded as an alien, and even thought it was a demon beast that had transformed into a shape, and turned his head and left......
"Stop, who's coming!"
A big man with a knife blocked Su Shi's way, fierce and vicious.
"I'm from outside." Sue said the most.
"The outside world? Which outside world? Cai Qiang raised his brows, and his evil anger leaked out.
"Beyond the Kunlun Secret Realm." Su replied truthfully, he was not familiar with the Kunlun Secret Realm, and lying would be easily exposed.
"Shaomeng labor, who doesn't know that the Kunlun Secret Realm has been blocked?" Cai Qiang reprimanded angrily.
"It's blocked, but it's turned on every fifty years, isn't it? I only came in the other day. Su said the most.
“…… I heard that the Sword Sect brought back a few people a few days ago. Cai Qiang remembered this, but then frowned and said, "No, if you are the one who was brought back to the Sword Sect. How could they possibly allow you to come and go as you pleased? ”
"It's not the people they brought back, but the ones who took advantage of the chaos." Sue most explained.
"Shaomeng labor, you are a mortal, how can you sneak in under the nose of the Eastern Sect Master!" Cai Qiang didn't believe it.
"I'm also a cultivator, and I learned a skill that can hide my own aura, so I was fortunate enough to deceive the Eastern Sect Master." Sue is the most introduced.
Cai Qiang was only skeptical.
Su knew the most, the soles of his feet moved, and when he reappeared, he was already behind Cai Qiang. When Cai Qiang found out, he instinctively blocked the knife in front of him, and he was in a cold sweat. I was relieved to see that Su was most innocent, and I probably believed what Su said the most.
"Doesn't it mean that cultivation is no longer possible in the outside world? How do you cultivate? Cai Qiang couldn't accept it, everyone has been confined to this small space for generations, although they are happy and worry-free, but after all, they lack excitement. Originally, he thought that the environment in the outside world was very bad, but now that he saw that Su was the most successful in cultivation, the sense of superiority in his heart was challenged, and it was not a good taste in every way.
"The outside environment is really not good. Not to mention cultivating immortals, even martial arts have been defeated, I can only cultivate by chance, and now I have to find ways to enter the Kunlun Secret Realm for further study. "Sue is looking at the environment the most. A look of envy.
Cai Qiang has regained his sense of superiority, but the Chinese people are introverted, and the Kunlun Secret Realm is no exception, so of course Cai Qiang is not good to get carried away. just said: "Being able to cultivate Xiaocheng in the outside world is also a chance, but I don't understand." Why don't you join the Sword Sect with the Eastern Sect Master? With your abilities, joining the Sword Sect is a breeze. ”
"Brother Tai doesn't know, I'm an idle cloud and wild crane, and I don't adapt to the life of the sect." Su made an excuse for herself.
"But now the Sword Sect is also very lazy and free, and there are no special rules!" Cai Qiang was surprised, there were many rules in the sect in the past, but now there are few people, so naturally there are no rules, and the sect is no different from the family.
“…… I don't know! Sue was dumbfounded.
"I don't blame you, after all, you are not familiar with the Kunlun Secret Realm. However, the brother came in without the Dongfang Sect Master, and now I am afraid that it is not suitable to return to the Sword Sect, otherwise he will be blamed. Cai Qiang said.
"Then I have to look at Brother Tai to take care of it, I hope Brother Tai will keep it secret for me." Su said most impely.
"This ...... It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Cai Qiang nodded in agreement, but his eyes dodged.
It's not that he is untrustworthy, but the problem is that the status of the Kunlun Sword Sect in his heart is far greater than that of Su Shi, who met for the first time, although he is quiet on the surface, he is bound to turn around and go to the Sword Sect to make a small report. It's not Cai Qiang's villain, it's just human nature, why should I keep it a secret from you? Who knows if you are in danger of Kunlun Secret Realm? As for how to deal with it, it was all a matter for the Eastern Sect Master, and it had nothing to do with him.
Su Shi also discovered this, but he remained silent, and then said: "Brother, I am new to this place, and I am not familiar with this place, but seeing that the population of the town is not large, there are many empty houses, can you buy one?" ”
"This ...... Of course, there is no problem, empty is also empty, but I don't know what the brother is going to exchange? Cai Qiang's mind is also active, Su is the most from the outside world, maybe he will bring some interesting things, it is better to be cheap than others, he has a lot of empty houses, and it doesn't hurt to sell to Su the most.
"I brought in some gold, silver, and jewelry." Su said the most.
Cai Qiang shook his head and said: "The population of Kunlun Secret Realm has decreased sharply, but the gold, silver and jewelry of the predecessors have been handed down, and everyone has a lot of them, the value is really not large, and everyone is not rare." ”
"This ......" Su was choked up for a moment, and he was also a little dumbfounded, and when he asked, he knew that the Kunlun Secret Realm is also circulating gold and silver nowadays, but the value is not high, and a gold leaf is needed for a meal on weekdays, and everyone does not pay so much attention to this yellow and white thing now.
The highest-level currency is a spirit stone, but this thing is very rare now, and only some sect disciples have it.
Of course, Lingshi Su can also get it, although the flea market prohibits the trading of simple spirit stones, but old jewelry made of spirit stones can be put on the shelves for trading. However, Su will naturally not use spirit stones to buy real estate, firstly, because he will suffer too much, and secondly, he is also worried that he will be remembered.
Food?
"We are not short of food, and every family has dozens of acres of land that is deserted, and we can't eat all the food." Cai Qiang said.
The value of gold and silver is not large, and there is no shortage of food, what is the rare Kunlun Secret Realm now? Su was most confused, and he could only humbly ask Cai Qiang for advice
