Chapter 61: Strange Things
When he came to the crypt of the ancient tomb, Cheng Yanjin suddenly opened his mouth and couldn't believe what he was seeing. This huge crypt is crowded with people, and it is a lively scene. Illuminated by the countless torches on the walls around the cave, the nine huge night pearls around the altar were not to be outdone, reflecting the surroundings of the altar like a dream.
When Cheng Yanjin was standing there in a daze, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man next to him came up and respectfully bowed to Cheng Yanjin, "Is it the first time for the seniors to come to this market, can you let the juniors lead the way for the seniors?" ”
"Oh, what's the pay?" Cheng Yanjin, who came to his senses, asked with interest.
"Where do the juniors dare to ask for any reward! The task of the juniors here is to run errands for the seniors who have entered the martial arts, and to be responsible for doing some chores for the seniors. ”
"Oh? It's interesting, it's the first time I've come here, so let's tell me about it! Touching the fake beard on his chin, Cheng Yanjin leaned closer to the young man, ready to listen to his explanation.
When he came to this ancient tomb this time, for the sake of insurance, Cheng Yanjin disguised himself and dressed up as a middle-aged man in his forties. When he first came here, he met Nayou Niaoti, Zhou Laosi, Ding Jiuzhong, Jin Huanzhen, and Na Void Zi and others.
Although those unborn old guys fought because of the ownership of "Eternal Decision", none of them died in the end. And they are all people who see the true face of biting gold in the process, since this is a place where alchemists and qi refiners communicate with each other, then it is very likely to meet these people, with Cheng Biting Jin's current ability, he still can't compete with these people, so he has to make this decision, just in case.
After the introduction of the young man in front of him, Cheng Yanjin realized that the reason why the market here was formed actually had something to do with him. At the beginning, in order to retaliate against You Niaoti and several of them for punching and kicking him, he stabbed out the news that they got the "Immortal Decision" here.
So some half-believing cultivators came here to investigate, and after the rumor was confirmed, more and more people came here. At that time, the people who came here were all people from small sects, and they didn't have the strength and ability to take the "Immortal Decision" from the top martial arts masters of You Niaoti, so they made the idea of the Pangu Tomb where the "Immortal Decision" was discovered, hoping to find some other treasures here.
It's a pity that this place has long been looted by You Niaoti and those people, and even the earliest person who came from Cheng Biting Jin was lucky enough to get this peerless martial arts secret book, and nothing else was found, let alone these later people.
Although no one found good things in it, because there were so many people who came, there were those who flexibly took out the surplus or unused things in their hands and exchanged them with others here in exchange for things that were useful to them.
Later, as more and more people gathered in the martial arts here, several sects saw the business opportunities and influence on their own sects, so after fighting a few times in the open and in the dark, this place was jointly managed by an alliance called 'Stability and Unity'.
This 'Stability and Unity' alliance is composed of thirteen more powerful sects and families, and each family has a master to form the alliance elder group, which is responsible for the daily operation of this trading bazaar. At the same time, in order to expand its influence, this alliance broke the rule that alchemists and alchemists were hostile to each other and did not interact with each other, so that both alchemists and alchemists could come to this bazaar and ensure the safety of those who entered.
Because this bazaar is in that crypt, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the thirteen elders of this alliance are also relatively advanced martial arts cultivators, so in a short period of time, a large number of disciples from various small sects and sects and sect members of the cultivation family have gathered here.
Especially after allowing alchemists to participate in the exchange, those qi refiners with low martial arts cultivation purchased a lot of pills from those alchemists that could enhance their internal strength cultivation, and their internal strength progressed rapidly. And those alchemists got a lot of genius earth treasures, high-grade elixirs, from these qi refiners that they occasionally obtained but could not use. It can be said that both sides take what they need, and they are all happy.
Therefore, it didn't take long for this place to be crowded, and its influence was increasing day by day, and I heard that the two top forces of the two sects, the Six Paths and the Righteous Path, were interested in this place, and occasionally sent disciples to come here to purchase items and even issue tasks. And in order to better serve the people who come here and make them frequent visitors here, the elder group of the 'Stability and Unity' Alliance sent the disciples of the lowly cultivators of various families to scatter in this cave to serve the alchemists and qi refiners who came here.
Hearing this, Cheng Yanjin asked curiously, "The two major forces of decency are Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Monastery, this old man knows, what are the two six sects?" ”
"The predecessors are silent, those two and six sects are the top forces in today's evil sects, those two are the Yin Kwai Sect and the Flower Sect, and the six realms are the Evil Extreme Sect, the Extinction Dao, the Mending Heaven Pavilion, the Heavenly Lotus Sect, the Demon Sect and the True Preaching.
I don't know how many of these top forces are good at martial arts cultivation, don't look at our 'Stability and Unity' alliance seems to be very good and powerful, but even if you add up the people of the thirteen sect families, I'm afraid it is less than half of the strength of these top sects, so even if they are the masters here, the people of the 'Stability and Unity' alliance don't dare to offend the disciples of those top forces casually. ”
Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in his heart, the old gentleman he offended earlier was a branch of the true preaching, and he originally disdained this true preaching, thinking that this was at most just a first-class force in the rivers and lakes, but with the strength of the Yan Gang, he didn't have to be too afraid.
Now after listening to this young man's introduction, Fang knows that he despises this true preaching too much, since that true preaching is the top force in the martial arts, then if he wants to destroy such a small junior in his own way, it is easy to catch it, and it is effortless.
Although the old gentleman promised that no matter what the outcome of the life-and-death duel was, he would not come to trouble him in the future, but when those people in the Dao Sect spoke like farts, it was more appropriate to expect them to keep their promises than to believe that they were good people.
Besides, what Lao Junguan promised was that they Lao Junguan himself would not retaliate, but he did not say that their immediate boss Zhen Evangelist would not retaliate, this is like two children fighting, one of them was forced to swear a poisonous oath, he could not retaliate, but after beating the child, can this child's Lao Tzu feel at ease?
Even though I have not seen the true preacher come to my troubles, it does not mean that I can rest easy. There are no more than two reasons why this true preacher does not come to find trouble for himself, either the old gentleman feels embarrassed and does not tell his sect, or the true preacher feels that he is just an ant and is not worth teaching.
The first reason is that although there are some possibilities, but there is not much hope, the original life and death competition shocked the entire rivers and lakes, although it is said that those who know are some foreign masters, but those martial arts masters must also have many people know, there is no reason why it has not been reached in their ears until now.
Now it seems that there should be only the second reason, those martial arts masters of the True Missionary Dao do not think that they are a character, and they can enter their eyes and let them look at each other, so they are lucky to escape. But when I can hide from the first day of junior high school, I can't hide from the fifteenth, and there will always be a conflict of interest between myself and this true preacher, and then the true preacher will be able to easily let go of himself.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yanjin suddenly remembered what the young man in front of him had just said, and hurriedly asked, "You said that there are occasional disciples of those top forces who come here to issue tasks, what are the tasks?" ”
Cheng Biting Jin only felt that his heart was pounding, although the true preacher may not be able to put himself in his eyes, but if the disciples of the disciples below have some idle and nothing to do come here to issue tasks, and let these wandering martial arts masters deal with themselves, it is still possible, this section can be asked clearly, if there is really its own bounty list here, then he will immediately turn around and leave, and the province will be recognized and chased and killed by the whole world.
He listened nervously as the young man replied, "Most of those tasks were issued by some alchemists, mainly to ask people to help them find some rare elixirs, or to hunt some rare animals, and these alchemists used pills that could increase their internal strength and cultivation as revenge.
In addition to these alchemists, there are also some qi refiners who can't complete the tasks issued by those alchemists, but they want to get those pills that can enhance their internal strength cultivation, so they write down the information of some medium-grade elixirs and unknown herbs and animals they have here, and exchange them for pills from those alchemists who are interested in them. ”
Hearing that there was no so-called task of chasing and killing the reward, Cheng Biting Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked with some surprise, "The old man is only here for the first time, and he has never revealed his intention to buy and sell things, but you young man is so enthusiastic and thoughtful, why is this?" Could it be that the children of your disciples here are naturally so hospitable? ”
The young man looked at Cheng Yanjin with a little blush, "The seniors don't know, the other disciples here also treat all the guests who come here like the juniors, but it's for another reason."
Seeing Cheng Biting Jin looking at him with a curious face, the young man gritted his teeth and said embarrassedly, "The reason why the juniors are so enthusiastic is that I hope that the seniors who come here can give the juniors some benefits while being satisfied. ”
"Oh, looking at you like this, it seems that a disciple has received any benefits before?"
"That's natural, and the first person to get this benefit is a young man who is optimistic by nature, and that person is still from the same family as the younger generation. Originally, I joined these sects in order to be able to study martial arts, but I was sent here to do such drudgery, and who wants to waste a lot of time doing such things, so at the beginning, I was sad and only thought about how to find out how to please the elders in that sect who were responsible for arranging manpower, so that I could transfer myself out of this place.
Only that young man treated all the seniors who came here happily every day, but within a few days, a senior alchemist who came here was very satisfied with his service, and when he left, he gave him a few bottles of pills that could improve the cultivation of martial arts. Now that young man is already an elite disciple in my sect, and it is said that he is still a popular candidate for the next head of the sect, and we disciples must be respectful and bow down when we see him.
Since then, all the disciples who are responsible for serving the seniors here have grown a heart, flattering the seniors who came here, and flattering them in every possible way, and as a result, many people have benefited, so whether it is the disciple, when they see the seniors who come here, they all greet each other with a smile and are enthusiastic in service! ”
Cheng Biting Jin opened his mouth wide, and couldn't close it for a long time, good guy, there are really many children in the rivers and lakes, and there are many strange things, this is the first time I have heard of such strange things, looking at this young man, Cheng Biting Jin nodded with satisfaction, "You are very honest, just take the old man around here, and when the old man leaves, the benefits will naturally be indispensable to you!" ”
The young man was overjoyed: "Senior, please!" ”
