According to Lao Bo, Morotian is divided into four urban districts, southeast, west and west, and the population of the four districts together is as high as hundreds of thousands.

The overpopulation directly leads to the fact that most people in the city have difficulty finding jobs like the old man.

Among them, especially the low-level mortals.

So these people went out into the streets and started running errands for the monks, and even carrying the monks' cattle and horses on their backs like livestock.

Hearing this, Su Xing then asked, "Then there are some people on the street who look like you are so old, what's the matter?" ”

The old man replied: "If mortals like us are just cows and horses, we will definitely not be able to support ourselves, so we sometimes go to worship the statue of 'Shou'." ”

"The statue of 'Shou'? What is that? Su Xing was puzzled: "Worship that statue, can you still get money?" ”

"There's really money to take." The old man smiled helplessly: "However, there is also a price to pay for worshipping the statue of 'Shou'." ”

I don't know when it started.

The lord of Morotian, Yuanlong Daoren, was madly obsessed with a creature called 'Shou', and built a statue of 'Shou' in the central square of the city.

At the beginning of the statue's establishment, the Yuanlong Dao people would give a large number of spirit coins to those who worshiped the statue as a reward.

Just worship the statue to get Spirit Coins.

For a time, there was an endless stream of worshippers in the city.

But it didn't last long.

In just two or three days, some people in the city discovered that the statue of worshipping 'Shou' seemed to accelerate its own aging.

This kind of aging, although it will not reduce the life expectancy of people, will make people become weak and look old....

As soon as the news spread, no one in the city dared to pay homage to the statue.

Especially women.

For most women, appearance is far more important than a few spirit coins.

As the number of people worshipping the statue gradually decreased, the city lord Yuanlong Dao began to increase the money.

He increased the reward for worshipping the statue from 10 at a time to 50 at a time, and the worshippers followed.

Civilians with higher incomes in Moro only earn 50 spirit coins per month.

And worshipping the statue once can directly get nearly a month's income, a temptation that not many people can refuse.

Especially for those at the bottom who can't earn spirit coins.

Over time, there have been countless 'old people' in the streets and alleys of Morotian.

After learning about the magic of the 'Shou' statue, Su Xing became interested.

He asked, "Brother, do you know what the statue of 'Shou' looks like?" How does it make people age? ”

The old man replied: "It is said that the statue of 'Shou' was made by the craftsman according to the instructions of the city lord, and no one has ever seen the real 'Shou'.... Therefore, many people say that there is no such thing as 'longevity' in this world, and that the statue will make people age, and it is also the city lord who is making trouble behind his back. ”

All this, is the city lord making trouble behind his back....

But what is his purpose in doing this?

Su Xing secretly wrote down this matter, and asked again: "Do you know, where is the nearest inn from here?" ”

"Moro Tian is not allowed to enter or leave, there are no passing tourists at all, and where will there be any inns."

"Is there any cheap house in the neighborhood where you can live?"

"This...."

The old man thought for a while and suggested to Su Xing: "Shangxian, if you really want to find a place to live, then it is better to find a job directly in the city.... Hundreds of thousands of people are crowded together in Morotian, which leads to the high price of land, which is terrifying, and it is better to find a place to work with accommodation than to pay a high price to buy a house. ”

In Morotian, Su Xing first had to solve two problems:

First, he needed to find a place to live.

Secondly, it is to get in touch with the circle of monks as soon as possible, so that you can sell the life medicine in your hand, accumulate the 'black silk thread' and improve your strength.

According to the old man, finding a place where he can work not only solves the problem of accommodation, but also allows him to contact some monks who are also in the Qi training period.

This proposal is feasible.

After thinking for a while, Su Xing took out 10 spirit coins from the storage bag and handed it to the old man: "Then do you know if there are any places around here that are short of people?" ”

"Dare to ask Shangxian, do you have any aspects that you are good at?"

"This.... I'm good at pharmacology and alchemy. ”

"Alchemy."

The old man pondered for a moment: "In the elixir garden in the eastern district of the city, there seems to be a shortage of a few monks who cultivate spiritual grass, you see?" ”

As soon as he heard that there was a shortage of people in the Elixir Garden, Su Xing didn't think about it, so he immediately agreed.

This next time, the few spirit grasses that he lacked when refining the life medicine were all settled....

…

Moro Sky City East.

Inside the Elixir Garden.

After some twists and turns, Su Xing finally saw the detonator of the Elixir Garden.

Because he asked for help, he saluted the junior of the detonator who was also a fifth-level qi practitioner, and said respectfully: "In Xia Suxing, I have seen a detonator. ”

"Hmm...."

rattan chairs.

The detonator sat up, glanced at Su Xing carefully, and said with satisfaction: "The fifth layer of Qi training, right?" ”

Su Xing maintained a respectful attitude: "Returning to the detonator matter, it is indeed the fifth layer of qi training."

"Have you worked in the Elixir Garden before? Have you ever learned the method of sending aura to Lingcaodu? ”

"I have worked in the medicine garden for several months, and I am also proficient in the method of sending spiritual energy."

"That's good."

The detonator said, and suddenly showed a meaningful smile: "That.... You want me to work here, you should know the rules, right? ”

Moroli has a large population.

Even for Qi cultivation cultivators such as Su Xing, it was quite difficult to find a job.

When monks are looking for a job, in addition to having a certain amount of experience, sometimes they inevitably have to hand out some benefits to the people above them.

In short, it is to send some spirit stones.

According to the rules, if Su Xing wanted to enter the elixir garden to work, he had to hand over ten spirit stones to the detonator first.

in the house.

Seeing that Su Xing was silent, the detonator frowned, and said unhappily: "You came to me to find a job to do, you won't even have a spirit stone prepared, right?" ”

It's not that Su Xing can't afford to pay the spirit stone.

He was only attracted by the shouting outside the house.

I saw more than a dozen monks working in the elixir garden, lined up in a row at this moment, shouting slogans like demons.

"Forge ahead, self-improvement!"

"Tireless, God rewards hard work!"

They shouted and made strange movements.

This move reminded Su Xing of what he saw and heard when he was on Earth....

It's okay to let Su Xing work, even if you're tired.

He can accept all of this.

But if Su Xing is made to be like those monks, who have to shout all kinds of slogans in the courtyard before working every day, then Su Xing will be a little unbearable.

This made him feel disgusted for no reason, and decisively refused: "I'm sorry, I really forgot to bring the spirit stone in the next place, so I will leave first." ”

With that, Su Xing was about to walk outside the house.

"Stand!"

Seeing that Su Xing was about to leave, the detonator immediately stood up from the rattan chair and slapped his palm twice.

Hearing the movement in the house, the three Qi Practitioners rushed to the door of the house and blocked Su Xing's way in a column.

It may be that you feel that you are outnumbered.

Although they are both fifth-level Qi practitioners, the detonator is extremely arrogant: "My place, do you think you can come if you want to come, and you can leave if you want?" ”

Su Xing turned around and frowned, "Detonator, what do you mean by this?" ”

The detonator smiled: "You don't want to do my work in the elixir garden, naturally there are people who are willing to do it, and we won't force you to keep it.... However, since I have spent time seeing you, it doesn't seem appropriate for you to want to leave without leaving a little benefit, right? ”

Boy.

Seeing that the detonator couldn't ask for a bribe, he directly changed it to a clear robbery.

But Su Xing relied on the ability to 'transform', and he was quite confident in speaking: "We are all practicing qi at the fifth level, if we really fight, it's not good to fight and lose both, right?" ”

"Huh,"

The detonator said fearlessly: "You don't seem to have figured out the situation yet, do you?" There are more than a dozen people guarding my house, and if you really start to do it later, do you think you can please you? ”

Su Xing glanced at the monks outside the room, who were still shouting slogans.

He sighed and said as if resigned to his fate: "That's okay, I'll hand over this spirit stone, I just ask you to let me go..."

With that, Su Xing walked straight towards the detonator.

The latter was even more unscrupulous: "You just handed over the spirit stone directly, isn't it over, you have to..."

in the house.

Halfway through the detonator's words, he saw that Su Xing's whole person instantly burst out, took out a short sword from the storage bag, and stabbed it forward.

The short sword used by Su Xing was given by the head of the Qingxiao Sect, and it was a high-grade qi-level magic weapon.... Breaking stones and cutting gold, no problem.

If this sword is stabbed, the detonator will shed his skin if he does not die.

But the detonator can achieve this position, naturally he is not a stupid person, as early as when Su Xing approached him, he had already made preparations in advance.

Seeing Su Xing's violent attack, the detonator who had been prepared for a long time also took out a short sword from the storage bag and attacked the place where Su Xing must be saved.

The blow of the detonator is to attack instead of defend.

If Su Xing is unwilling to put away his sword, then he will inevitably be injured by the detonator at the same time as he hurts the detonator.

This elixir garden is almost full of people who are in charge of detonators.

Once Su Xing is injured, the rest of the monks will rush up, and if they want to kill or chop at that time, they can only let the detonator deal with it....

I have to say.

The detonator's response is indeed impeccable.

But what he didn't expect was that in the face of this head-on sword, Su Xing's whole person did not dodge or dodge, and he had no intention of withdrawing the sword.

Seeing this, the corners of the detonator's mouth raised slightly.

He felt that the wave was stable.

The next second.

Just when the detonator thought that he was going to fight with Su Xing, Su Xing's whole person turned into a translucent state.

At first glance, it looks like a ghostly with no substance.

This caused the short sword in the detonator's hand to stab directly into the air, and Su Xing had already taken the opportunity to sweep behind him.

Not good!

This sudden change made the detonator's heart tighten.

He subconsciously wanted to distance himself from Su Xing, but suddenly felt a cold neck, and the whole person flew up from the ground....

Wrong.

To be precise, it was the head of the detonator, which was blown up by the blood gushing from his neck.

"What a fast sword...."

In mid-air, the last thought flashed through the detonator's mind, and his eyes were closed, completely unconscious.

From Su Xing's approach to the detonator to his use of a short sword to cut off the other party's head, the whole process was only a few breaths.

Witnessing the whole process of the death of the detonator, the three Qi cultivation period cultivators who were blocking the door all showed extremely frightened expressions.

The trio instinctively wanted to escape.

But I heard Su Xing's tone calm and said, "Don't run away yet, listen carefully." ”

Maybe it's because of Su Xing's illusory ability.

The three Qi cultivation cultivators outside the door really stopped all of them and stopped moving.

in the house.

Su Xing continued: "The one who killed the detonator just now was a monk who was eight feet tall, with a strong body and a beard, do you remember? ”

Although Su Xing had the blessing of the 'transformation' state and was invincible to a monk of the same level, he still did not choose to kill in the end.

Let's not talk about it, whether Su Xing can kill all the monks in the medicine garden.

Even if he did, the end result would only be to make things bigger, which would make it easier to expose himself.

In comparison, the way he deals with it now is the best choice.
