Medium grade, or lower grade, for Zou Mao, this is a very practical choice.
With inferior qualifications, he really has no confidence to say the word "top-grade".
Lingyu's footsteps paused, then turned his head and smiled: "Determined? â
Zou Mao hurriedly said: "Yes, please teach me the immortal elder!" â
Lingyu nodded: "After the end of the business market, I will go with you to the west of Ulan." â
After saying that, she still went up to the sand dune and sat down to absorb the purple qi.
Zou Mao was stunned for a long time, not understanding what was going on. He went to the west of Ulan in order to earn the money to guide the way, if the immortal chief was willing to guide him, why not let him go to the immortal gate and then pay it back? In that case, it will be much easier to make money than in the world.
Zou Mao was full of questions, but he didn't dare to ask after all, for fear of missing the opportunity.
After three or four days of bustling market, it gradually became deserted, and some of the desert tribes who had exchanged goods began to return to their places of residence, and the Haru were no exception.
Ada and Aru come to see Lingyu and want to invite her to the Haru tribe.
Lingyu did not respond. The holy mountain was not very attractive to her, and the Haru had saved her karma, and she had already repaid it with a spring.
Ada and Aru are disappointed and gone.
When the market was completely over, Zou Mao's caravan embarked on the journey.
This caravan consisted of 100 people and was made up of many merchants, and Zou Mao was just one of them. In order to be able to participate in this caravan, he raised for a long time before he could raise the money for the occupation.
To cross the Ulan Desert, camels and water are the most indispensable, as well as bodyguards, who are relied upon to keep the goods in case of robbers.
Zou Mao set out on the road across Ulan with trepidation, strangely. No matter how much he searched, he couldn't find any trace of Lingyu. The immortal chief didn't say. Will you come with him?
"The hosts. Why should we follow him? "High in the desert, on the back of the flower skin, Abi asked.
Lingyu, who was sitting in front of her, said, "Lest he die!" â
"I know this, but even if he is dead, what does it matter to us?" Abi is a demon, and he has the most simple view of right and wrong. If it has something to do with me, then there is something that has nothing to do with me. That's fine.
Lingyu said: "We still have to rely on him to go to the Immortal Realm, but we can't let him die." â
"Huh?" Ah Bi didn't understand, "Didn't he already say the location of the Immortal Realm?" Wouldn't it be nice if we flew over? With the master's ability, nothing can stop us, right? â
Lingyu smiled and patted her head: "It's not difficult to get in, but it's not easy to hide your tracks." â
Abi blinked, with her intelligence, it was too difficult to understand this.
Lingyu patiently explained to her, "This world is a bit weird, and we'd better not show anything special. â
"Weird?" Abi thought for a moment, "I also think it's a little, my spells don't work well in this world!" â
"Oh?"
"Yesterday I wanted to grow a fruit tree. As a result, it took twice as much aura. â
Lingyu thoughtfully: "Is that so......"
Abi's birth spell is not quite the same as an ordinary one. Rites of passage. This is related to the existence of the laws of heaven and earth. According to this, it should be that Ah Bi is not connected enough with the laws of heaven and earth here, which will reduce the effectiveness of the spell.
Lingyu thought of the feeling she felt when she first came, and there seemed to be a layer of barrier in this world, suppressing the laws of heaven and earth. If it weren't for that, with the soul contract between her and Xu Yue, it would not be difficult to find Xu Yue.
"Abi, in this world may be more dangerous than we imagined, you have to use more brains in the future, don't be confused and cause trouble."
"It seems like I often get into trouble...... Ah Bi muttered, seeing Lingyu's solemn face, she agreed, "Okay, I know." â
Lingyu patted Huapi's head: "Okay, let's go." â
Zou Mao found that the road was surprisingly smooth. There were no sandstorms, no robbers, and even a rare rainfall in between.
It usually takes more than three months to walk, and in less than a month, they have walked more than halfway.
That day, he heard the caravan's guide muttering that there was no change in the appearance of the sand along the way, and it saved a lot of effort to find the way.
Walking in the desert, it is likely that the sand dunes will turn into sand pits overnight, so how to find the right way is a crucial factor in whether a caravan can get out of the desert alive.
In the caravan, everyone was rejoicing in their good luck this time, but only Zou Mao knew in his heart what was going on.
More than a month passed, and the caravan came out of the desert and reached the west of Ulan.
There are many small nations scattered here, and they do not have strong military forces, but they have exquisite skills.
Zou Mao got busy and sold the goods he brought one by one. Then take the payment and calculate which goods should be brought back.
As he was crouching in a trading house to pick out silverware, a voice suddenly came from next to him: "Don't buy these." â
Zou Mao turned his head and looked at it, and was overjoyed: "Immortal Chief!" â
After more than a month of desert dust, Zou Mao's whole person was a lot haggard, but Lingyu was still spotless.
Zou Mao revered her even more, passing through the desert without seeing the wind and dust, the immortal chief's cultivation must be very high!
Lingyu didn't greet him, pointed to the jade carving in the corner, and said, "Buy those." â
Zou Mao was puzzled: "Immortal Chief, these jade carvings are all eliminated from poor quality, why buy those?" â
"You listen to me."
"Oh......" didn't understand, but Zou Mao still did it.
When the men of the trading house heard that he was going to buy jade carvings, they were secretly happy and sold him a large number of jade carvings.
Zou Mao's capital is not much, and he can only buy a little bit of silverware and gemstones. These jade carvings are inexpensive, but there is still a surplus.
Back at the inn, the merchants who were traveling with him saw that he was carrying so many goods, and they all gathered around to see, and when they saw that he had received these jade carvings, their faces were strange.
Some people laughed secretly in their hearts, these jade carvings with such poor quality are brought back, I'm afraid this trip will be lost, young people are just ignorant!
Some people kindly reminded him: "Zou Gongzi, this jade color is too miscellaneous, I'm afraid it won't sell for a good price, you hurry up and return it and exchange some things." â
Zou Mao thanked the others, but still went his own way.
The man saw that he would not be persuaded. Shook his head and walked away.
Prepare the goods early. The next few days. Zou Mao wanders around the nearby small country every day. He doesn't buy goods that are known to be lucrative, he buys things that look inconspicuous.
He did this, of course, out of Lingyu's guidance. Lingyu taught him a simple psychic technique and let him sense aura.
The countries of the Western Regions of Ulan produce minerals such as metal gemstones, which are easy to produce spiritual treasures. Moreover, there are no monks here, and there is a desert to separate, so those who wander around the world and do not want to endure hardships, and rarely come. And so it goes. There are also many fish that have slipped through the net in the goods sold on the street.
More than half a month passed, the things that should be sold were sold, the things that should be collected were collected, and the combined caravan prepared the draft water and prepared to embark on the journey home.
The hottest summer in the Ulan Desert is impassable, and the caravans come to the west of Ulan every year, they have to hurry, they are used to coming and going. But this time. They had plenty of time, as long as they were able to cross the desert along the lĂŹ. There will be more than half a year to live a leisurely life at home.
The merchants returned to their hearts like arrows and embarked on the return journey.
On the way back, it was still smooth all the way. When they saw the Pearl Spring, the merchants were very happy, and when they arrived here, it was equivalent to completing the whole journey, the Pearl Spring was a trading place, and the desert tribes had always been guarded here, and those robbers would not come here to rob.
"Immortal Chief!" Zou Mao was used to the elusive spirit jade.
Lingyu said: "From now on, I am the casual cultivator you met by chance on the way to business, remember?" â
"Yes, the juniors remember."
Lingyu shook her finger: "Don't call yourself a junior, and you don't have to call yourself an immortal, you have to call a fellow Daoist." â
ââŚâŚ Fellow Daoists? Zou Mao slowly pronounced this title, and a wave of excitement rose in his heart, feeling as if he had stepped into a new world.
"Do you know where there are loose cultivators nearby?"
Zou Mao thought for a while and replied: "I don't know about this, but the immortal chief I met in the past once mentioned that in the big city, there is usually an alliance meeting held by scattered cultivation. The nearest big city in Pearl Spring is called Yinzhou. â
"Okay, let's leave for Yinzhou now."
"Good ......"
Out of the desert, Zou Mao parted ways with his fellow merchants, hired a carriage to buy water with the little money he had left, and went to Yinzhou with a cart full of goods.
He didn't hire anyone other than the coachman, because Lingyu would go with him.
"Immortal...... Daoyou ...... "When we met, Zou Mao was taken aback.
In addition to Ah Bi, there is also a big man beside Lingyu, who looks dumbfounded, but his muscles are bulging and he is very strong.
Could it be the bodyguard she hired? With such a bodyguard, there really wasn't anyone who dared to rob the ...... along the way
"Let's go." Lingyu was the first to get into the carriage.
The road is smooth and needless to say. A few days later, the carriage arrived in Yinzhou.
Zou Mao was about to ask, when he heard Lingyu's voice from inside the car: "Enter the city gate, go straight west, and don't stop until the horse market." â
Zou Mao swallowed the question and instructed the coachman: "Go west." â
The horse market in the west city of Yinzhou was full of messy cattle and horses, and Zou Mao, under the instructions of Lingyu, unloaded the goods at a carriage and horse shop.
"Officer, where is this truck?" To Zou Mao's surprise, the shopkeeper of this carriage and horse shop actually came out in person and greeted him warmly.
The scale of this carriage and horse shop is very large, and there are many people who come and go to buy horse markets or rent cars, and Zou Mao is just one of them.
Before he could answer, a man came out of the carriage and said to the shopkeeper angrily, "Go where you need to go." â
Zou Mao was wondering where to go, but the shopkeeper seemed to understand, called two men, and loaded the goods into a new carriage.
The group changed cars, but the coachman didn't ask, but got up the carriage and left.
ââŚâŚ Fellow Daoists, where is this going? Zou Mao asked Lingyu.
Lingyu waved his hand: "You'll know when you arrive." â
As he spoke, Zou Mao felt his head dizzy, and as soon as he recovered, the carriage stopped.
The coachman said outside, "Guest, it's here." (To be continued......)
PS: It's a sad story. The day before yesterday, I had diarrhea until my legs were weak, so I went to bed early, and I asked Fenghua to make an announcement. Yesterday I turned on the computer and was updating, and I went to the bathroom, and suddenly it was dark, so I didn't update again. I owe it again and again, and then I have to work hard, and I will do what I say and do today.
In addition, if it is generally not updated, there will be an announcement in the comment area, except for special circumstances. Therefore, if you have an update, you can brush the comment area.
