Chapter 30: Markets

After Qin Tian and the others returned to City J, they immediately took the earliest train to City X, and stayed there for two more days to collect some information.

"Old madman, can you be sure? The secret of the Hook Jade Talisman? Qin Tian asked the crazy old man who was there with the old gods on the side, until now he still couldn't believe the existence of the Pangu Great God or the like.

"Boy, old man, I have seen much more of the world than you, I dare not say anything else, but the strange energy contained in this must be related to the Pangu God." The crazy old man closed his eyes and said leisurely.

"Then why were you so excited when you heard those words?" Qin Tian had some doubts in his heart, the crazy old man returned it to him directly after studying it for two days, without a trace of remembrance.

"This ......, how can I tell you, in fact, I also have a part." The crazy old man hesitated for a while but decided to tell Qin Tian that they were all the ones who owned a part of that thing anyway.

The crazy old man took out a compass from his bag, Qin Tian felt familiar, it seemed to be the one he used to deal with Lao Pang last time, he could make fire and make soil, it was really amazing.

However, no matter how you look at it, this doesn't look like something similar to the magataku in Qin Tian's hand, but it looks like it's made of copper.

Seeing that Qin Tian's eyes were full of puzzlement, the old madman guessed that he must have misunderstood, and then said,

"Of course this compass is not that part, what is really magical is actually what is placed under this compass."

As he spoke, the crazy old man turned the compass over, revealing his true face under the compass.

An emerald-like stone bead was inlaid in the center, exuding a faint cold glow, and even Qin Tian couldn't help but indulge in it.

"What is this?" Qin Tian couldn't help but ask with curiosity in his heart.

"This is what I got by chance when I went to explore the ruins, and after studying it for a long time, I found that there are some words in it, just like the one in your stone talisman, and my stone bead has the ability to summon the five elements, so I took the trouble to embed it into the compass."

"Now my gossip compass is matched with the power of the five elements, and the power is naturally not to be underestimated." The crazy old man couldn't help but sigh at his compass, but to be honest, this ability was indeed enviable.

"I've investigated for a long time and found that the energy contained in this similar thing is different, but there is one thing in common, it must all be related to the Pangu God, as for the reason, you will know later."

The crazy old man said that he kept silent, carefully put away his gossip compass, and ignored Qin Tian, who looked curious, and turned his head to the side to sleep.

Qin Tian took out the jade talisman from his arms, looked at it emitting a faint green light, and thought back to what the crazy old man had just said, the material of this jade jade was a stone, and he couldn't be sure if it had anything to do with the Pangu Great God.

But the stone bead in the mad old man's hand was very different from the function of his jade talisman, and when his jade talisman was fused into his body, it only gave him extraordinary strength and the ability to see through falsehood.

And the crazy old man's stone bead actually contains the ability of the five elements, and with his strange gossip compass, it can also urge the power of the five elements, just like the fairy who calls the wind and rain in mythological stories.

In such a comparison, Qin Tian still felt that his jade talisman was much more powerful, after all, it could also help him see many things that he couldn't usually see, which was useful for his trip to Mount Tai.

The train traveled for about two hours and finally arrived in City X.

Qin Tian and the others got off the train and found a nearby hotel, this time they finally didn't meet a strange shopkeeper, the store was opened by a pair of old people over seventy years old.

"Let's go to the place that Lao Pang said before." Qin Tianhe said helplessly to the crazy old man who was still a little confused on the side, he didn't expect the crazy old man to really sleep on the train for another two hours, and he still seemed to be a little unconscious.

The crazy old man nodded casually, he hadn't been to Taihang Mountain anyway, everything had Qin Tian to prepare.

Qin Tian and the others searched for a long time before they walked into a small shop called "Market", the small shop looked dilapidated, and it was strange that there was not even a light turned on in the daytime, and they really couldn't imagine that this was where Lao Pang recommended them to come.

"Are you on the wrong track, this place looks in tatters, how can there be what we want here?" The crazy old man pursed his lips and looked at the shop with some disgust.

Qin Tian was also a little skeptical, he remembered that Lao Pang had told them that if they wanted to get some useful information, they must go to a shop called "Market", where there would be the information they needed, provided that they could afford to pay for it.

"Let's go in and see, maybe we'll find out."

Qin Tian said that, he took the lead and walked in, maybe there was some mystery in this store, the crazy old man saw Qin Tian walking in, he turned around in distress, and also walked in.

Walking into the store, Qin Tian and the others found that they couldn't even find the second person except for a middle-aged man sitting in front of the counter.

And the shelves in the store are just some very ordinary daily necessities, and there are even one or two items with a thick layer of dust on them.

"Do you need anything?" The middle-aged man seemed to be weak and said to Qin Tian and the others.

"Hello, we would like to get some information about Taihang Mountain." Qin Tian responded politely to the man.

"If you are here for a tour, you can go to the tourist center and ask yourself, I don't accept tourists here." The middle-aged man completely lost interest, and continued to squint and rest there with his head on his stomach.

"We're going to Wantong Pavilion, can you make it easier?" Qin Tian stepped forward and talked to the middle-aged man warmly, and handed him a piece of black cold jade with his right hand vaguely.

The middle-aged man's expression immediately changed when he took Leng Yu, and a flattery filled his face.

"Distinguished guest, you want to go to Wantong Pavilion, right, just follow me."

The middle-aged man stepped sideways and stepped lightly somewhere on the floor, and a bottomless secret passage suddenly appeared behind the counter, which made Qin Tian and the crazy old man startled.

After walking with the middle-aged man for about half an hour, Qin Tian and the others finally came to the underground city, except for the dim lights, this prosperity was no different from the above-ground city.

Qin Tian was completely shocked at this time, he never thought that there would be such a vast place under X City, Lao Pang had only told him before that there were big people behind this underground city that were enough to pierce the sky, but he didn't tell him in detail.

"VIP, Wantong Pavilion has arrived, if you still need to say hello, I have to go back to it, you can go shopping." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he quickly retreated, thinking that he was going back to his counter to continue looking at the store.
