Chapter 226: Strange City

Seeing the city wall in front of him, Situ Nan didn't care, because it was not the first time he had seen this city along the way.

You still remember that when Situ Nan first saw this city, he was puzzled for a while, because he had only entered this desert for two days at that time, but if there was a city only in such a short distance, then how could this circle of yellow sand be regarded as a moat?

This doubt was not resolved until Situ Nan came into contact with the "city wall", it turned out that it was just a mirage, and in a place like the desert, it was not impossible for the ultra-high temperature to distort the air and make the distant city appear in front of him.

So after Situ Nan experienced this kind of thing a few more times, he didn't care anymore, after all, who knows if what he encountered this time was a mirage?

Not long after Situ Nan was indifferent to the city in front of him and continued to move forward, he saw the scene inside the city through the gate of the city, and many of them were wandering and lifelike.

Seeing this scene, Situ Nan couldn't help but be stunned, "Can a mirage be so clear?" There were doubts in his heart, Situ Nan just probed out his spiritual power, and finally found that the city that appeared this time was no longer a mirage, and under a shock in his heart, Situ Nan continued to walk forward, and at the same time unconsciously vigilant in his heart.

Where Middle Earth is, even the former Situ Nan has never been here, and his understanding of this place is just hearsay, to say more, it is just that he once came here to grab sand beasts for research, and other than that, there is nothing else.

So at this time, facing this real city in Middle-earth, Situ Nan was still a little apprehensive in his heart.

It didn't take long for Situ Nan to come to this city, unlike the cities on the four empires, although there were city walls here, there were no guards guarding the city gates, and no one came forward to interrogate Situ Nan's arrival, or charge any tolls.

Standing in place and stunned for a moment, Situ Nan then walked towards the city, Situ Nan found that there seemed to be no difference between this place and the city outside, people came and went, there were mutual markets, there were restaurants, and even Situ Nan could faintly see a place similar to a green building.

"Is this Middle-earth? the rumored worst Middle-earth?"

After taking a few steps forward, Situ Nan detected that someone was walking towards him, but there was no malice on the other party's face, so Situ Nan was ready to take a look first.

"Are you new here?" This person didn't look very old, but he looked like a teenager, and looked at Situ Nan's face at this time, with a hint of kindness.

Seeing that the other party had no malicious intent, Situ Nan nodded, "Hmm." ”

Hearing Situ Nan say this, this person's eyes lit up, and then he hurriedly spoke, "Then do you need a guide?"

"Guide?" Situ Nan was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the other party puzzled.

"Well, guide. Hearing this, the man hurriedly explained, "If you have anything you want to go to, or something you need my help to do, I can help you, but I need you...... You need to be paid something. Speaking of the back, a hint of timidity appeared on the man's immature face.

"You're the old man here?"

"Well, I was born here. ”

"Oh?" Situ Nan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, "Born here?"

"Well," said the look on the man's face, a little melancholy, "so you don't have to worry that I don't know the way." ”

Looking at the person in front of him, Situ Nan couldn't help but be in a trance, he hadn't heard of some natives in this Middle Earth before, but he had always thought that the natives here might be different from the monks from the outside world, but at this time, it seemed that it was the same.

"And what do you need to be paid for?"

When this person heard Situ Nan say this, he naturally knew that Situ Nan had the idea of hiring him, and immediately said in surprise, "I only need you to give me a little bit of water attribute and wood attribute spirit stones, just a little bit." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to be worried that he had withdrawn too much price, and added, "Actually, one attribute is also fine, and a little bit is fine." ”

Looking at the person in front of him, Situ Nan couldn't help but ask, "Is these things of any use?"

"Useful!" the man nodded, "with these things, you will be able to live a little longer." ”

"Huh?" Situ Nan's eyes changed when he heard this, and when he thought of the yellow sand all around him, as well as the heaven and earth that were filled with spiritual power without any other attributes except the earth attribute, he couldn't help but understand why the other party needed water attribute and wood attribute spirit stones.

"What's your name?"

"Huh?" Listening to Situ Nan's question, this person seemed to be a little puzzled.

"You've got to tell me your name, or I'm going to call you, and we'll have to spend some time together!"

When this person understood Situ Nan's words, a clearly visible joy suddenly appeared on his face, "My name is Tu'er." ”

"Tu'er?"

"Well, because others say I'm a child of the soil, that's why they call me Tu'er. ”

"Is it a child in the soil?" Situ Nan heard this, and couldn't help but look at the yellow sand around him, he had already explored Tu'er's physique before, and knew that the other party was not a special physique, although the attributes in the body were earth attributes, but they were also very thin, no different from ordinary people on the mainland, since this was the case, then the children in the soil could only be literal.

"Okay, then I'll call you Tu'er. Situ Nan said, taking out a piece of water-attribute spiritual power from his storage ring, "This is the water-attribute spiritual power you need, and it is also the reward I will give you after you do me some favors, but now, I can only give you a small piece." As he spoke, Situ Nan turned his palm into a knife and divided this piece of water attribute spiritual power into two halves, because he used some spiritual power to seal the breach of this spiritual stone when he started it, so there was no spiritual power leaking.

"This piece is yours, and this piece is yours, but I have to keep this piece first. ”

After receiving the half of the spirit stone handed over by Situ Nan, the clearly visible smile on Tu'er's rough face couldn't be hidden at all, only to see him nodding his head busily, only this piece of spiritual power in his eyes.

After the other party was excited for a while, Situ Nan spoke, "Okay, then you have to be a good guide for me." ”

"Hmm!"

"Tell me about the situation in the city. ”

"Well, there are currently more than 8,000 people in the city, of which there are a total of eighty-eight monks above the realm of entering the realm, and about eight hundred and eighty-eight monks are in the realm of ascending to the hall. ”

"Huh?" Situ Nan said with a puzzled face when he heard this, "How do you know this?"

When Tu'er heard this, he explained, "It's not that I know, but everyone in this city knows. ”

"You know?" Situ Nan was even more puzzled when he heard this.

"Well, because there are laws in the city, this number is fixed!"

"And what if there's a newcomer like me?"

"It's the same, after an hour, it's going to be the same. With that, Tu'er turned to Situ Nan and asked, "What kind of cultivator are you?"

Hearing the other party ask like this, Situ Nan didn't hide it, and said bluntly, "Enter the room realm!"

"Is it so powerful?" Tu'er looked adoring when he heard this, but then he spoke, "But is your strength strong?" ”

Situ Nan was not a stupid person either, and when he heard the other party say this, he immediately understood, "You mean that if there are foreign monks, they will maintain this number by fighting?"

"Well, that's right!"

"But what if a monk who enters the realm dies for no reason?"

"It won't be for nothing. ”

"Oh?"

"If a monk who entered the Chambered Realm suddenly dies by himself, there must be a new Monk who has entered the Chambered Realm, and it is the breakthrough of the city itself. ”

While the two were talking, in a house to their left, an aura suddenly erupted, and it was the aura of a cultivator of the Ascending Realm who had broken through to become a Entering Realm cultivator.

"You dare!"

Just when this aura appeared, another breath of the room realm appeared, which seemed to be rushing towards here, but just when he was about to arrive here, the people in this room had already broken through successfully, and it was at the moment when he broke through that the person who rushed was sudden, life and death!

Situ Nan clearly saw that the other party's cultivation seemed to suddenly disappear out of thin air, and his entire body fell from mid-air to the ground, and after falling to the ground, his body suddenly turned into a pinch of loess.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Tu'er was not surprised, but said to Situ Nan, "Look, I'm right." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed slightly, "That's right!"

"That's natural, I've seen it a dozen times this month. ”

"A dozen times?"

"Well, a dozen times, I think about it, fourteen times, yes! Last month was a little more, more than thirty!"

"How could you break through so quickly," listening to Tu'er's words, Situ Nan couldn't help muttering, for this question, he didn't think that the other party could answer it for himself, at this time he was just wondering, although it is not too difficult to break through to the realm of entering the room, it will not be too simple.

But here, this person said that he had seen the scene in front of him more than a dozen times, that is to say, in this month's time, among the eight hundred and eighty-eight monks, more than a dozen of them had broken through their cultivation and become the realm of entering the room!

If it happens to be that everyone has been accumulating a lot of money this month, then how can we explain it last month? Tu'er said that last month, more than 30 people broke through their cultivation.

And as far as the previous monk who wanted to rush to the Entering Realm was concerned, he should have known that he would die after this person broke through, otherwise he would not have been so eager at that time, but since this Entering Realm monk already knew that the other party would die if he broke through the cultivation, why didn't he kill him before that?

What's more, this is not one person, forty or fifty monks who have entered the realm have died in the past two months, can they all let this go?

Thinking about it in his heart, Situ Nan couldn't help but be a little shocked, what kind of existence does this city have? Middle Earth, what kind of place is it? Earth attribute, why is it so deeply related to earth attribute.

"What about the monks who ascended to the Sealed Realm?" Situ Nan asked.

Hearing Situ Nan say this, the young man couldn't help but change his face, "Dengfeng Realm monk, it's better not to have it." ”

"Oh?" Situ Nan said suspiciously, "Why is that?"

Tu'er was silent for a while, but still didn't answer, "If Mr. insists on asking, I will only return the spirit stones I gave before." ”

Seeing that the other party saw this, Situ Nan couldn't help but shake his head, and then said, "Since you don't want to say it, then forget it, there is another thing to ask you." ”

Tu'er saw that Situ Nan didn't force him to ask, and his face was also a little lighter, "Sir, you said." ”

"Is there a place in the city to sell valuable items?"

"Yes!"

"Take me there, and when you get to the place, you can leave. ”

"Yes!"

As he spoke, Tu'er took Situ Nan to turn left and right, and walked to a magnificent place in the city, "Sir, this is where you are going." ”

Situ Nan looked up and saw that there were only two words on the plaque of this shop, "Buy and sell." ”

"Hehe, it's interesting here. Situ Nan smiled, at this time he had temporarily forgotten the scene he had seen before, after all, he was here mainly to find an earth attribute treasure, after finding it, he would have to find a place to break through his cultivation, as for other things, he needed to wait until he cultivated to break through, and by that time, the Dengfeng Realm was just like that for him, and he would naturally be able to come to this strange city again to explore the secrets.

"Well, your reward. Situ Nan casually handed the remaining piece of water attribute spiritual power and another complete wood attribute spirit stone to Tu'er, "Okay, let's go back." ”

Situ Nan saw that Tu'er's face was a little anxious before, and he guessed that the other party might have something urgent at home, so he didn't forcibly keep people at this time.

"Sir, you give too much. Seeing the two spirit stones in his hand, Tu'er couldn't help but be stunned.

"Hehe, didn't you say that you want earth attributes and water attributes? With that, Situ Nan was about to walk towards the store.

Looking at Situ Nan's back, Tu'er suddenly said, "By the way, sir, I still need to tell you something." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he couldn't help but turn around and look at Tu'er, ready to listen to his next words.

"Later, if someone comes to invite Mr. to fight, Mr. will definitely not fight with him, just admit defeat. ”

"Oh?" Situ Nan was stunned again when he heard this, "Why is this?"

"If Mr. wins,"

Tu'er was silent for a while before saying, "If Mr. admits defeat, he won't be counted among the eighty-eight monks in the city. ”

"Oh?" Situ Nan couldn't help but think of the previous scene when he heard this, "Isn't there no punishment if you lose?"

"If you lose, as long as Mr. can leave the city today, it will be fine, but if you continue to stay in the city, the cultivation will be completely eliminated!"

After speaking, Tu'er saluted Situ Nan, and then turned around and disappeared.

Seeing this ceremony, Situ Nan was stunned again, because this etiquette came from the four empires!

Shaking his head, Situ Nan calculated the time, at this time, it was only half an hour before he entered the city, even if someone came to find trouble for him later, then he would have to wait to talk about it, at this time, he had already walked into this "trading" shop.

After Situ Nan walked into the store, he found that there were still a few people here, but they were all shopping by themselves, and no one came to pay attention to him.

Seeing this, Situ Nan raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and clawed from his storage ring, and several crystal clear top-grade spirit stones appeared in his hands.

After Situ Nan showed these spirit stones, sure enough, the surrounding people suddenly turned their eyes to Situ Nan, and someone in this shop immediately walked out and greeted Situ Nan.

"The distinguished guest has arrived, and the small shop is shining!" This person is over the middle of the year, with a kind face, and Situ Nan has already investigated, and the other party has no cultivation in the body.

As for the other party being so respectful to himself, Situ Nan was not the slightest surprised, with the spirit stones he took out, even in the outside world, it was a big deal, after all, those few spirit stones combined could be exchanged for thousands of ordinary spirit stones. With such a huge amount of money, in this world where there are only earth attributes, the value of nature has increased greatly.

"Distinguished guests don't dare to be, just come to buy something. ”

"Hehe, Childe just said, as long as it is available in a small shop, it will definitely be found for Childe. ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he didn't answer immediately, but looked around.

The middle-aged man also noticed Situ Nan's gaze, and was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help asking, "Childe is new?"

Situ Nan was stunned when he heard this, did he act like a newcomer?

Perhaps sensing Situ Nan's doubts, the middle-aged man explained, "Did Childe worry that what we were talking about needed to be kept secret and shouldn't be announced? ”

"Well, is there something wrong?" Situ Nan heard this, his mind full of question marks.

"Hehe, do you know what our city is called?"

"What's it called?" Now that the other party had recognized his details, Situ Nan simply stopped hiding it and asked directly.

This is the name of our city, and the monks in this city know that if they do evil, they will be killed immediately!"

"Oh?" Situ Nan was stunned when he heard the other party's words, but Natu Tu'er hadn't made it clear to himself before.

Seeing Situ Nan's reaction, the man explained, "Of course, Childe is not a person in our city now, so this rule is not counted on Childe, but ......" The middle-aged man was speechless, "If Childe does evil, we will eliminate evil, and it will not be considered evil!"

Hearing what the other party said, Situ Nan couldn't help but think of something, and asked, "What if someone wants to kill himself?

"Huh?" the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly said, "Someone has already told you that there are a certain number of things for the monks of the Hall Realm and the Entering Realm Realm." ”

"That's right. ”

"Except for this matter, as long as the Entering Realm Monk can find the Ascending Realm Monk who is about to break through, killing him is not evil, after all, it is just self-preservation. ”

Situ Nan shook his head when he heard this, "I'm asking about the monk of the Dengtang Realm, since he knows that someone will die if he breaks through the realm, but he still insists on breaking through, is this considered evil?"

The middle-aged man didn't expect Situ Nan to ask about this layer, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's no wonder that others, if the monk who ascended to the hall realm didn't break through, when the time came, he would die and die!"

"Huh?" Situ Nan frowned when he heard this.

"Childe already knows that someone will come to Childe in an hour later, right?

When Situ Nan heard this, the doubts in his heart deepened, "Heaven is fixed, where is the heavens!"

"Childe, be cautious!" The middle-aged man heard Situ Nan's disrespect for the sky, but he immediately stopped, "Is Childe just here to talk to the contemptible people?"

Seeing the middle-aged man suddenly change the topic like this, Situ Nan couldn't help but wonder why the other party was so afraid of this ethereal sky, but then he knew that in this city with so many weird rules, does "heaven" really not exist?

Since the other party had already said before that there was no need to avoid others, Situ Nan said directly, "I need earth-attribute spiritual objects, the higher the quality, the better!"

Seeing that Situ Nan was talking about business, the middle-aged man also regained his composure, and said, "Oh, I don't know the geometry of Childe's assets? There are some things that Childe can buy with the spirit stones he took out before." ”

"Hehe, since I say so, I can naturally afford it. ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he glanced Situ Nan up and down, and then said, "Please!" As he spoke, the middle-aged man walked to the inside of the store with Situ Nan.

When Situ Nan saw this, he was stunned, saying that he didn't have to avoid outsiders?

After a few steps, Situ Nan followed the middle-aged man to a room, "Contemptible people, don't know the name of Gongzi?"

"Turtle?" Situ Nan was stunned when he heard this, someone would call this name.

Seeing Situ Nan like this, Tu Bei couldn't help but ask, "Childe, what's wrong, why can't I have this name?"

"It's nothing," Situ Nan shook his head, and then responded, "The surname Gao doesn't dare, under Situ Nan." ”

"It turned out to be Situ Gongzi, I heard Gongzi say that he needed top-level earth-attribute spiritual objects, and there are contemptible shops!"

In response to this answer, Situ Nan nodded, what did you do if you didn't bring me in?

"I don't know what kind of treasure it is?"

"Yao Jing!"

"How many Yaojing?" Situ Nan perked up when he heard this.

"Well, it depends on how big Situ Gongzi is. ”

Hearing what the other party said, Situ Nan was just about to take out a volume of exercises to give the other party an insight, but then he remembered something and said with some embarrassment, "By the way, I don't know if the soil shopkeeper wants exercises?"

"Exercises?" Hearing this, Tu Bei couldn't help but ask, "Is Gongzi going to exchange the exercises for Yao Jing?"

When Situ Nan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little bright, he hadn't worried about this matter before, but in this strange city, it didn't seem to be a good thing to have exercises, so for a while, he didn't know if he could still show his exercises.

......
