So there were local merchants who started another kind of business, which was to open inns to provide better accommodation for foreign guests, and also to provide very local meals, and these were paid for money. The rooms in the inn are good and bad, there are large rooms with many people and single quiet rooms, and if you spend enough money, you can even enjoy the quiet courtyard at the back.

There were men in the inn who helped take care of the cattle and horses, and not only the monks of various sects liked to stay, but also some caravans carrying valuable goods often stayed.

For the first two days of Huwa's entry into Hongjin City, she stayed at a post station, and spent the night with a caravan in a messy house. Later, he heard that there were many inns in Hongjin City, so he moved to the inn with Pan Gu, found a very large and good one, and asked for a separate courtyard in the back. Anyway, he can afford to buy the inn.

The tiger baby does not have any extravagant and wasteful habits, whether it is living in a messy post station or a comfortable single room in the guest house. He had a dog with him, and he wanted to sit and cultivate, and at that time, there was only this small courtyard where no one lived, and he didn't think about anything else. The reason why he came to the inn was just to see it, and he hadn't lived there before.

But the tiger baby only stayed in the inn for one night. The next morning, when he passed the front yard of the inn, he found the innkeeper standing in the courtyard and explaining something to a group of people, still being scolded by them. The other guests in the inn did not dare to approach, and someone had just walked in through the door, but he was startled and quietly retreated.

It was obvious that the group of people was a group of monks, and the treasure and sword that they had just bought at the bazaar hung from their waists, and they were holding a fat and strong black leopard in front of them! This beast was so terrifying that as soon as it entered the courtyard, it scared everyone in the courtyard away. Even the horses in the stable were frightened, and if they hadn't been chained, they would have scattered and fled, and now they all trembled and whined.

Those people seem to be regular customers, and when they come to this inn, they directly ask for a separate courtyard. But the inn was full. When the boss saw the tiger baby, it was like seeing a savior, and hurriedly came over and begged in a low voice: "This little gentleman, can you give up the small courtyard to those gentlemen? They have a fierce beast and will scare the guests away." As for your puppy, it doesn't matter, can I give you my own room where I sleep at night?"

Huwa saw that the boss was really embarrassed, so she waved her hand and said: "It's okay, just give my small courtyard to these guests with spirit beasts, you don't have to give up your room, I'll find another inn." ”

The innkeeper was very grateful. And said that yesterday's room money is forgotten. Huwa insisted on paying the bill, and he didn't want to take advantage of this little advantage, so he left the inn with Pan Gu and went to find another place. It turned out that all the inns in Hongjin City were full, and the small courtyard he lived in yesterday was still empty because the boss took the opportunity to increase the price, and the room was too expensive.

Huwa had to go to the post station again, but the room at the post station was also crowded with people. On this cold day on the plateau, the tiger baby sat in the corner of the post yard and spent the night.

How could there be so many people in the Red Brocade City? The reason is related to Wufu Hill. Every year on the winter solstice, Wufuqiu will open its doors to recruit miscellaneous disciples. Whoever is able to follow a designated path and climb that designated mountain. and is willing to stay as a handyman, Wufuqiu will not refuse.

But this so-called miscellaneous disciples are not the official descendants of Wufu Hill, they live on several peaks on the periphery, and they have to do all kinds of chores on weekdays. If there is a success in cultivation and a test of guò. If you can enter the middle peak, that is, the main peak of Wufu Hill, you can learn swordsmanship, and you will hope to become a personal disciple of Wufu Qiu and even Jiansha himself.

The various cultivation and inheritance sects in Bayuan have strict conditions for recruiting disciples. Because the energy of the Venerable Elder is limited, the resources of the sect are even more limited. It is impossible to instruct and train too many people, and it is not something that anyone who wants to worship can worship. In most cases, it is often the master who selects and guides the successor in various ways.

In fact, Wufuqiu is the same. It is very difficult to become a formal disciple of its sect, and it must be seen by those sect elders. But Wufuqiu seems to give everyone hope in such a way, and the mountain gate will be opened once a year, and the mountain will only be closed during the decades of internal chaos and chaos between the Bayuan Five countries.

The designated mountain is called Dengjing Peak, and the designated mountain road is called Kaishan Road. As long as you climb it within the specified time, you can stay in Wufu Qiu to cultivate, and one day you can hope to enter the main peak and even become a disciple of the sect. This has attracted countless people in Ba Yuan who want to apprentice to the master and cultivate but can't, but have all kinds of cultivation dreams.

However, with the conditions at that time, it was not easy to cross thousands of mountains and rivers to Wufu Hill, the deepest part of Bayuan's southern Xinjiang. Lingbao had this idea before, but in the end he couldn't make the trip, it was too far to reach Wufu Hill from the village where he lived, almost the whole of Ba Yuan, and he didn't know the way. For many ordinary villagers in Ba Yuan, the distant Wufu Qiu is just a legend.

However, there are always people who can get here in various ways, and before the winter solstice every year, the Red Brocade City is the last stop they stop to gather. At this moment, there are still more than 20 days before the winter solstice this year, but it is impossible to calculate the exact distance of long-distance travel, and many people try to arrive in advance.

Wufuqiu does not refuse anyone to climb the mountain path every winter solstice, even if it is a member of the demon clan, and it does not matter whether the climber is a monk from another sect. Therefore, at this time of year, there are also many monks from various sects who come to see the excitement, which can be regarded as an eye-opening to see the world.

There are also many monks who will climb the mountain with everyone, not to worship under the Wufuqiu Gate, but to try their own cultivation, and after returning to show off to their fellow disciples, they finally did not join in the fun. Because the trail is notoriously difficult, there are many climbers every year, but few people succeed in the end.

Some people come to climb the mountain to seek art, some people come to travel and try, some people come to see the excitement, and it also attracts a lot of caravans to do business, so there are so many people gathered in the Red Brocade City, and there will be more and more when the winter solstice is approaching.

Huwa spent the night in the courtyard this day, of course he would not freeze with his cultivation, and he was not the only one sitting on the wall in the courtyard in the middle of the night, and there was also a group of monks who had just arrived in Hongjin City that day. In the middle of the night, everyone lit a fire and chatted, and the most talked about was of course the opening of the mountain gate in Wufuqiu this year, and everyone was ready to see the excitement, and many of them also wanted to climb the mountain in person, such as the tiger baby.

The mountain god once introduced to the tiger baby, and these monks also talked about the rules of Wufu Hill to open the mountain gate every year. As long as you climb the mountain road and are willing to stay as a miscellaneous disciple, you can stay on the mountain. As a large sect, Wufuqiu also has all kinds of mundane affairs to take care of, of course, it needs people to work, and the miscellaneous disciples are not paid for their work, but Wufuqiu is responsible for food and lodging, and he is responsible for dressing and warming, and eating and eating.

At the beginning, no one taught them to practice the secret method of supernatural powers, but in addition to work, someone taught them to practice the strength of opening the mountain, and whether they could practice it or not depended on their own kung fu, and no one would force or supervise them. If you feel that life in the mountains is too hard, or if you feel that your cultivation is hopeless, you can go down the mountain and leave by yourself by saying hello, and no one will force you to stay.

In fact, most of the people who successfully reach the peak every year are monks from various sects who come to join in the fun, because after all, they have supernatural powers and cultivation, which can be regarded as a big gathering of fellow practitioners, but these people will not stay as miscellaneous disciples.

For these tourists who come to see the excitement, Wufu Hill does not take it, but it also does not provide accommodation and food, so they can play on the mountain for three days at most, and when it is almost enough to visit, they can go down the mountain on their own.

The area around Hongjin City is located on the plateau, and then climb such a high peak, and catch up with the winter solstice every year, which is the season when the cold wind is biting and the snow is like cutting. Even the monks of various sects will not stay in the mountains for a long time to find themselves cold and hungry, and usually go down the mountain after turning around, which is regarded as a kind of experience.

As for the miscellaneous disciples who stayed in the mountains, of course, the living environment was very difficult, but as long as they completed the daily chores, they would have no worries about food and clothing. There are a total of five peaks in Wufu Hill, and the four outer peaks are connected by rope bridges on the clouds, so the miscellaneous disciples in the mountains can usually walk back and forth. And each of these four peaks has a long rope leading to the main peak in the middle, the cultivation place of the true sect disciples.

On each of the four outer peaks, in front of the long rope leading to the main peak, there was a boulder with a sword stuck in it. If a miscellaneous disciple wants to go to the main peak to learn the arts, he must pull out this sword, then cut through the clouds and mist in front of him, and walk over with a long rope on his feet.

And the tiger baby knows more about the inside story, which was introduced by the mountain god and also mentioned by the general of the Northern Dao clan. If you want to pull out that sword and split the clouds and mist that obscure the road, you must not only refine the mountain-opening strength, but also cultivate the martial arts. Because Wufuqiu had rules, it was not allowed to use any other magical spells at that time. With this one requirement, most of the monks of the various sects who mixed in could be stopped.

In fact, Huwa has seen many people who have cultivated martial arts, and many of them are not good people, such as nearly ten masked sergeants who have practiced martial arts in the military formation that attacked Baixi Village. And when he was in his wild hometown, the mountain master once concentrated the strong men of the two clans of Lu Village and Huahai Village to cultivate the mountain strength, and about fifty people practiced it, and more than ten of them cultivated martial arts.

It doesn't sound like this kind of thing is difficult, but as far as Huwa knows, in an environment of lack of supervision and persecution, it is simply too difficult to practice the strength of the mountain and even the martial arts on your own! That requires not only extraordinary physique and talent, but also perseverance and determination beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Therefore, most of the people who have become pioneers are soldiers in the barracks. They live in a collective, obey strict orders, and persist in battle drills all year round, and the commander will also select soldiers with strong physiques to specialize in cultivating the strength of the mountain. In an environment like a military camp, you can practice with your companions every day, and you have orders to urge you not to relax, and only those who have this talent can practice.
