"I've seen that old thing..."

Cui Laodao frowned, shook his head and said: "When the elder of the Mountain Monarch Temple came to Lushan City, he was seriously injured, and it seems that he is still being chased and killed, and he asks for the protection of Xuandu Temple. ”

"When Xuchen received him, I had seen him from afar, and he seemed to speak kindly, but it inexplicably made me creepy, and no one had ever given me such a feeling."

"Besides, if ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, most of them will hide from the world, but this guy is auctioning off the inheritance with great fanfare, don't you think it's weird?"

"There is indeed a problem."

Zhang Biao nodded in agreement, "Monks don't value money that much, especially now. ”

"Where is that person?"

He decided to investigate first, and anyway, if there was anything strange, he could see it with his spiritual eye.

Who knows, Cui Laodao shook his head after hearing this: "I don't know, after that person talked to Xuchen, he hid, saying that he would only appear at the auction to avoid the enemy." ”

"Hiding?"

Zhang Biao shook his head slightly and didn't ask any more.

After the two of them reminisced, Zhang Biao returned to his room, meditated cross-legged, carried Zhou Tian, and discharged erysipelas.

By the time we were done, it was late at night.

It was pitch black outside the window, and from time to time there was a flash of firelight, and it was the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect who were patrolling the night, and their expressions were a little nervous.

After Zhang Biao saw it, he was not surprised.

The outbreak of corpse plague, coupled with the auction, Lushan City will be eventful for a while.

And this auction does reveal strange ......

………………

The next day, thunder roared and the rain came.

After breakfast, Zhang Biao and Zheng Yongxiang went out and went to the north of the city under the leadership of Cui Laodao.

They were very curious about the cultivator's bazaar.

As the head snake and the nominal manager of the market, Cui Laodao naturally wanted to take them on a tour.

Although Lushan Castle is located in a basin, it is not in the center of the plain, but is built on the mountain, backed by the vast mountains.

Because of the plague, the streets were sparsely populated, and the dense fog and torrential rain poured down, making it look empty and like a ghost town.

Everyone came to the north of the city with an umbrella, and they saw a mountain road, built of bluestone, mottled with years, and bamboo forests on both sides, winding upwards and leading into the dense fog.

"Above is Lushan Academy."

Cui Laodao explained: "Since the fall out with the imperial court, those brainless scholars have been looking for trouble every day, and the king of Huaizhou was angry, so he ordered the Lushan Academy to be sealed, and many people are still in prison." ”

"The cultivator's bazaar must not be in the city, so the city lord Zheng opened the Lushan Academy and handed it over to the old Taoist me..."

Zheng Yongxiang also sneered: "They are not so simple, but in the past, Confucianism set up the stage, and the big guys sang operas. And now that the world has changed, they are not willing to be swept away from the dust, and they just want to rise to the top..."

Everyone walked and chatted, climbing the stairs.

Soon, a large academy appeared in front of him, the plaques on both sides had been removed, and there were soldiers sent by Lushan City to guard the door.

This academy is built with extraordinary momentum, the flying beam bucket arch is faint in the fog, and it is a memorial arch before entering the door, and the students who used to go up the mountain will be in awe when they see it.

It's just that now the sound of books is gone, and there is no chance with mortals.

"This market is divided into two sessions, morning and afternoon."

Cui Laodao introduced as he walked: "Monks rarely trade with money, so in the morning, they barter, and whatever they see, as long as they negotiate the terms, they can trade." ”

"In the afternoon, it will be an auction, and if you have something good in your hand, you can let out the wind and let the buyers prepare in advance."

"All transactions, Lushan City does not take a cut."

Zheng Yongxiang also nodded slightly, and whispered to Zhang Biao: "The city lord of Lushan City is called Zheng Huainan, who is from his own family, and he was quite famous when he was young, so he got the position of the city lord. ”

"His eldest son also worshiped the Xuandu Temple, which was not only for the sake of the future of Lushan City, but also for the sake of his son's cultivation, and borrowed the resources of the Zheng family to help his son practice..."

Zhang Biao said calmly: "Everyone has selfishness, it is not surprising. ”

After entering the academy, Cui Laodao introduced, "Now that the market has just started, there are few things, so they are all trading in Zhengxintang in the morning. ”

As he spoke, he handed Zhang Biao a waist card, "The auction is scheduled for three days later, and the defense is in charge of Xuandu Guan and the city lord, I will go to check the process, you guys will go shopping first." ”

"Okay, you get busy first."

Zhang Biao nodded and took the waist card.

Zhengxin Hall is the main hall of Lushan Academy, built very large, in the past, thousands of people chanted the scriptures, but also called a scene in Huaizhou.

Entering the main hall, as Cui Laodao said, there are not many people.

The whole hall is divided into large and small rooms, which are made of bricks and stones, neatly arranged, and roughly divided into four areas: herbs, materials, ritual utensils, and classics.

There is both order and privacy.

After Zhang Biao saw it, he was in a trance for a while, as if he had returned to the small commodity wholesale market in his previous life.

Zheng Yongxiang was full of admiration, and said in a low voice: "This Cui Daochang is really a ghost, if he looks like this, if anyone does not follow the rules and spoils other people's business, he will inevitably be besieged, but it can save manpower." ”

Zhang Biao also nodded and looked at the middle of the hall.

There is an altar set up there, and there are several Xuandu Taoist priests meditating, and once something happens, they can activate the Jiao altar and use the power of the divine court to suppress and calm down.

The layout is also ingenious, but it also proves that Xuanduguan has a shortage of manpower in Huaizhou, and he can't bear it if he really encounters hard stubble.

Seeing that the Xuandu Taoist priests noticed him, Zhang Biao nodded slightly, and took Zheng Yongxiang to the herbal medicine area.

On the central altar, several Taoists all looked solemn.

"Senior brother, is that Tai Sui?"

"Well, Senior Brother Lingchong of Moyang City has dealt with him, and he is friendly, but this person is also righteous and evil, and his Taoism is profound, so you should be careful."

"Uncle Xuchen has ordered, the auction is imminent, and the dragons and snakes will inevitably converge, as long as you don't make trouble in the academy, you don't need to pay attention to it..."

"Yes, senior brother."

Zhang Biao didn't have the power of heavenly ears, and he didn't know how many people spoke, so he took Zheng Yongxiang to wander around the herbal medicine area.

Monks trade, naturally do not shout indiscriminately.

Only half of the shops in the herbal medicine section are used, and all the herbs are stored in sealed clay pots, with only wooden boards written on the names.

Zhang Biao looked at a few and was disappointed.

Naturally, there is no need to mention the treasure medicine, and these shallow-rooted wild cultivators can't get it, but there is not even a single product.

It wasn't until I came to the end of the herbal medicine area that I saw a small shop, with Baishan Pavilion written on it, and the disciples who guarded the door were dressed neatly in black, which was quite imposing.

Zhang Biao immediately used the Spiritual Eye.

Those disciples were all members of the Youzhou Five Immortal Sect.

His heart moved, and he walked into the store.

When the boss saw him, he didn't know what he remembered, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "But Mr. Tai Sui?" ”

Zhang Biao was a little surprised, "Your Excellency knows me?" ”

The boss said with a smile: "The name of the gentleman has been spread all over the world before the fog disaster, and it can make the Yuzhen Mansion, the Fire Luo Sect, and the Killing Sect wanted together, but not everyone can do it." ”

He didn't hide his roots, and said with a smile: "In Xia Bai Saburo, from the Five Immortals Sect of Youzhou, not long after he arrived in Huaizhou, he heard that Mr. Tai Sui was also here. ”

"It turned out to be a senior disciple of the Five Immortals Sect."

Zhang Biao had already seen this person's information clearly through the eyes of spiritual vision, and pretended to be confused and asked: "Youzhou is far away from here, and I didn't expect to come to Huaizhou." ”

"Hahaha..."

Bai Saburo said with a smile: "It's not just Huaizhou, every state in the world, my Five Immortal Sects have sent people, after all, the Quartet will not only gather in one place." ”

"That's it."

Zhang Biao also nodded in agreement, and then asked curiously: "The Five Immortal Sect is close to the northern Xinjiang, and there are many rare treasures in the Great Snow Mountain. ”

Bai Saburo smiled mysteriously, "The fog of the Great Snow Mountain is shrouded, and it is difficult for mortals to enter, but I can't hide it, my Five Immortal Sect Altar is in the Snow Mountain." ”

When Zhang Biao heard this, he suddenly understood.

He used to buy medicine in Jixian Fang, and he heard that strange things continued to happen in various places, and the main production area of ginseng was in the Daxue Mountains of Northern Xinjiang, and there was a strange fog early, and none of the ginseng pickers who entered the mountains returned.

It turns out that these guys are doing it...

Thinking of this, he didn't talk anymore, but looked at the plank in the distance, and frowned, "No elixir?" ”

"What did Mr. Tai Sui say?"

Bai Saburo couldn't cry or laugh, "The changes in heaven and earth have not been more than a year, where will there be treasure medicines, but if Mr. wants, the small store still has the medicinal materials that have been purchased." ”

As he spoke, he ordered the man to take out a wooden box from the dark grid, solemnly opened it, and said in a low voice: "This century-old blood ginseng, after the revival of the aura, has already entered the product, and it is the treasure of the small shop town." ”

Zhang Biao looked at it, and there was no wave in his heart.

This blood ginseng has become human, but it is the same as the one he got from Liang Qiuyue, it is only barely entered, and it is of little use to him.

However, Tie Yu Cheng has just cultivated, and this medicine is just right.

Thinking of this, Zhang Biao asked: "Your sect came from afar, it must not be a silver tael, what do you want to exchange?" ”

Bai Sanlang's eyes flashed, "Mr. Tai Sui is a master, and he doesn't talk nonsense, I heard that you have the inheritance of Fang Xiangzong, do you have any foreign grass found in the spirit world?" ”

Zhang Biao said thoughtfully: "Your sect has an immortal family to worship, and it is easy to find medicine in the spirit world." ”

The corners of Bai Saburo's eyes twitched slightly, "It involves the secret of this sect, so I can't say much, but it's really not easy." ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Biao was stunned, and then thought of one thing.

In "The Legend of Wandering Immortals", Tu Lingzi once mentioned that the immortal family enshrined in the Five Immortal Sect of Youzhou is not only a secular god, but also related to demons.

Some powerful "demons" and "spirits" can open up a small space like a mouse making a hole, the so-called "cave sky".

The Great Snow Mountain used to be full of spiritual energy and many monsters, so there were many mysterious places, and even the Five Immortal Sect did not dare to set foot easily, especially the spirit world, which was even more dangerous.

This aura has just recovered, even if they can find the immortal spirit body to worship, I'm afraid it won't be much stronger.

Thinking of this, Zhang Biao pondered for a moment, and took out half a piece of Awakening Grass from his arms, "Is this okay?" ”

These awakening herbs were picked by him from the dragon corpse medicine field and given to Yan Shangu some pieces, but only half of them were left.

"It's... Awakening Grass! ”

Bai Saburo exclaimed, his eyes full of pain and said: "Tyrannical things, Mr. Tai Sui still has it, we want it all!" ”

Really...

Zhang Biao laughed secretly in his heart, this awakening herb is just an antidote to Gu and detoxification for him, but it is not weaker than a treasure medicine for cultivating incense and fire gods.

Thinking of the seeds sown in the Liu Ling Divine Domain, his heart was hot, but his face was still calm, "It took a lot of effort to find this thing, and only half of it was left." ”

Seeing that Bai Saburo's eyes were full of disappointment, he said in a low voice: "It's not a problem to help you find in the spirit world, it depends on your sect and how much you are willing to pay." ”

Bai Saburo's breathing became rapid, "What does Mr. want?" ”

Zhang Biao's eyes also became solemn, "The world has changed greatly, I am alone, and many things have been kept in the dark." ”

"I want to know what's going on in this world!"

This is another purpose for him to come to Lushan City.

Many things, the wind at the gate of the sect is very tight, Ling Chong is too vigilant, and he is not good at Xuanduguan, and the elders of the Mountain Monarch Temple are hiding again, so they have to take care of the Five Immortal Sect.

Bai Saburo's face changed after hearing this, and he stopped talking.

Zhang Biao shook his head slightly, "That's the case, forget it." ”

Then he turned and left.

"Sir, wait!"

When he was about to go out, Bai Saburo's eyes were cloudy, and he finally spoke, "I can't be the master of this matter, but my sect elder will come to Lushan City tomorrow, and if he agrees, he will talk to Mr. in detail." ”

Zhang Biao didn't speak, arched his hand and turned away.

Subsequently, he took Zheng Yongxiang to the magic weapon area, and just after walking a few steps, he saw the back of a graceful woman.

Seeing this, Zheng Yongxiang said in a low voice: "Immortal Master, that is the ginger fish hired by the Wang family. ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw the murderous intent boiling in Zhang Biao's eyes......
