Chapter 495: There is a harvest in the Fang Market, and then I smell the Lost Sea
Looking down at his feet, Tang Xiaotian saw a green mountain below. And in the green mountains and dense forests, a clearing within a radius of several miles was artificially cleared.
From above, the clearing looks like a number of rings on top of each other. Wooden and stone houses, lined up in the center, are the residential area of the gathering place; around the many houses is a market that is connected to each other, Tang Xiaotian does not need to look carefully to know that it is a spiritual market, this square market is the trading area of the gathering place; and further outside, there are several towers scattered around, on top of each tower a few monks can be seen sitting in it, and outside the tower there is a wide river in a ring, and the tower and the river together form the defense area here.
"Hehe! There is a place to live, a place to trade, and a guard around it, so that it looks like a gathering place, and the coastal area is a gathering place at best!"
Looking at the scene below, Tang Xiaotian said with a smile.
"Look at this gathering place is not small, and this square city is also bigger than usual. I don't know what unexpected gains I can get from visiting the paradise market for the first time. ”
Looking at the gathering place below, Chen Moheng also said with a smile.
"Although each place has its own characteristics, but now there are frequent exchanges between several continents, in fact, those things in the market are roughly the same. ”
Seeing that both of them were interested in the Fang Market below, Ximen Feng explained with a smile to the two.
Tang Xiaotian smiled mysteriously when he heard this, quietly leaned over to Ximen Peak, and whispered.
"Hey, hey, Boss! We go to the market for fun, not to buy anything, but to be able to pick up the spills in the market!"
Ximen Feng raised his eyebrows, then shook his head with a smile and said.
Don't underestimate anyone, it's definitely not bad in the eyes of people who often wander around the city. It's not as easy as you think to pick up the leaks under them. ”
"Hehe, of course I understand. But look, are we people going to be worse than they are?"
As he spoke, Tang Xiaotian's gaze swept over Xu Chenglin and the others one by one.
Ximen Feng looked at his many companions, and immediately reacted. If you get together with your peers, it's really not a problem to be able to gain something in the market.
Xu Chenglin is a refiner, Chen Luoxue is a pharmacist, Chen Moheng knows some talisman making skills, Chen Yuan is even more proficient in this way, although Tang Xiaotian doesn't use it much, but he knows a trick. As for himself, he is more proficient in formations.
Knowing what Tang Xiaotian meant, Ximen Feng immediately laughed and scolded.
"Heh, you kid, you're really going to be a nuisance!"
Tang Xiaotian smiled slightly, and then spoke.
"The first time I came back to Xanadu, how could I not go to see the Fang City. Since they are all gone, there are still so many masters around, how can they not have a good stroll. ”
Ximen Feng shook his head and smiled, and then said helplessly.
"Okay, okay! You talk a lot, you are reasonable, and we will go to Fang Market together in a while. ”
Seeing that Ximen Feng couldn't stand Tang Xiaotian's defense, several people couldn't help but smile.
While a few people were talking and laughing, the flying boat slowly fell downward.
When you see me, I see you. The people on the flying boat overlooked below, and the people in the gathering place had already discovered the existence of the flying boat. After seeing that more than a dozen flying boats had returned from the coastal campaign, the people in the gathering place were cheering and suppressing their worries.
Grape wine luminous glass, want to drink pipa immediately urge. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times. You don't have to be dead in a fight, but you can basically die in battle, let alone fight a Kraken. Although most monks look down on life and death, the death of the same kind will inevitably lead to the death of rabbits and foxes. What's more, they are all coastal monks, and the dead will inevitably have people who get along with them day and night. Just imagine, one moment your acquaintance is still alive, and the next moment you receive the news of the other party's fall. This sudden change is unbearable for anyone.
Every time the flying boat returns, it can bring a lot of kraken corpses to the gathering place. But they also brought back the bodies of the monks and many wounded. Therefore, every time the flying boat returns, the hearts of the people in the gathering place are also mixed.
Of course, not all people in the area feel this way. In fact, the people in this gathering place are mainly composed of two parts, one part is that the original coastal sect monks have taken refuge, and the other part is the inland monks. After all, the appearance of a monastery city, no matter how big or small it is, can always attract the surrounding monks.
"I'm back, I'm finally back, I hope the casualties can be smaller this time!"
"I don't know how many Kraken corpses I can bring this time, I can't wait!"
"It's finally back, I can't wait. This time, I must board the flying boat and kill the Kraken with my fellow believers!"
"You're back, I don't know what's going on along the coast?"
"I hope I bring back a little more Kraken corpses this time, so that I can earn more......"
......
Seeing the flying boat slowly descending, there are those who are concerned about the safety of the monks, those who pursue profits, those who are impassioned, and those who miss their hometown. In the midst of the various words of the crowd, more than a dozen flying boats finally landed in the gathering place one after another.
Under each flying boat, there is a group of people hula and cheer. People looked at the flying boat in the center of the crowd with all kinds of expectant eyes. Just like their words before them, people look at different expectations. Some people expect peace, some people expect benefits, some people expect recognition, and so on.
Finally, a floating ladder was stretched out from the flying boat. The monks laughed at each other or put their shoulders on their backs and walked down the ladder. Seeing the scene, everyone waiting under the flying boat couldn't help but be stunned.
"This is not right! Every time the flying boat returned in the past, the monks never had this expression, but today it is strange. ”
"I don't feel it, the monk who came back today seems to be in a slightly different mood. ”
"You're saying they're a little excited?"
"No, no, no! I felt a sense of exaltation in them, as if they were sulking. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, I think so. ”
"Have you noticed that there are almost no monks lost this time? ”
"Really!"
"Strange! Is the Kraken invasion light this time, or is there something we don't know about?"
......
The monk who stepped off the flying boat first smiled mysteriously when he heard the people talking. If the reason for this is not personal experience, no one can guess it.
As the monks descended one by one, the wounded began to be helped down. It was only then that the people gathered under the flying boat felt normal. But then, things that made them not calm appeared again.
I saw that one after another the corpses of the kraken were carried down by the monks, and several were lifted off each flying boat. Dozens of kraken corpses were neatly placed in front of the flying boat by the monks. At first, the Siren corpses went unnoticed. Because every time the ship returns, the body of the Siren is displayed in front of the ship like this. But when some of the discerning monks looked at the corpse of the Siren, they were shocked by what they saw.
"Condensation-level kraken corpses! And it's not just one! These are all of them, all of them were condensation-level kraken corpses before there was no flying boat!"
Someone in the crowd shouted this sentence in shock, and then everyone subconsciously looked at the kraken corpse in front of the flying boat. Almost instantly, everyone seemed to go crazy, and one by one they rushed towards the kraken corpse.
When all the sect masters on the flying boat saw this scene, they couldn't help but smile at the corners of their mouths. Several people looked at each other, and they all instructed the monks on the ship to take out the corpse of the forging body level demon beast that was stored in the storage bag. As the bodies of the forging level krakens on the flying boat were thrown down one after another, the crowd around the flying boat exclaimed again.
The few small sect masters on the flying boat didn't care about this limelight. However, under their leadership, the monks were all killed and wounded when they fought with the Kraken. Although no one openly blamed them, the repeated defeats still made them have a pimple in their hearts. It's hard to achieve such a result, how can they be unexpected?
Seeing that Sect Master Tian and the others had the intention of showing off, Ximen Peak and they did not deliberately break it. He walked in front of Sect Master Tian with a smile, and slightly clenched his fists to put forward the idea of going to Fang City to go around. Of course, Sect Master Tian and the others would not object, and after smiling and agreeing on the meeting time with a few people, he smiled and personally sent the six people off the flying boat.
As one of the controllers of the flying boat, many of the monks in the gathering place knew Sect Master Tian. Seeing that Ximen Feng and the others were personally sent off the flying boat by Sect Master Tian, each of the monks couldn't help but make way for the six of them. Seeing the six people of Ximen Peak leaving the flying boat, the rest of the controllers of the flying boat also bowed their hands from afar.
At this moment, the monks who saw this scene were all a little curious. What is the identity of these six people, and they have won the respect of so many big people. That's right, in their eyes, Sect Master Tian and the others are big shots. Although they are all small sects along the coast, the master of a sect that can control the flying boat is not a big man.
"Remember to suppress the cultivation later! Otherwise, if we walk into the Fang City like this, let alone pick up the leaks, we will scare away a group of people just by walking on the road!"
Xu Chenglin reminded several people of this situation as he walked. After hearing this, Ximen Feng and the others all nodded slightly. Only Chen Yuan thought about it for a while before he understood the meaning of Xu Chenglin's words.
As Xu Chenglin said, if six people walked into the market unabashedly, it would definitely cause a lot of commotion. In today's cultivation world, although it is not uncommon, condensing qi cultivators. However, it is extremely rare for six Qi Condensing Cultivators to appear together at one time. Not to mention the six Qi Condensing Cultivators, even if two Qi Condensing Monks enter the Fang City together, it will attract people's attention.
The so-called leakage is to buy something very valuable at a very cheap price, and the seller is often unaware. Picking up leaks is something that can be encountered but not sought, and usually whether you can pick up leaks depends on whether you are lucky.
Walking in the market, six people looked at this and that, all of which were eye-catching. Chen Moheng looked at a few spirit runes with some interest, but after Chen Yuan's identification, he found that they were all counterfeits. Chen Moheng was a little speechless at that time, he didn't expect that there were still imposters in the spirit rune. And Chen Yuan smiled and told Chen Moheng that although the few spirit runes he fancied were fake, they were only less powerful, and the functions were still not much different.
A small episode did not make a few people lose their interest in visiting the market. On the contrary, a few people were more interested. It's not easy to pick up leaks, if they are allowed to encounter them casually, then this leakage is not called leakage, it is simply called white pickup.
After nearly half an hour, the six people found nothing. It's not that they haven't found good things, but those things are all useful to the Forging Cultivators, and they are not of any use to their current cultivation. Although the things were good, they were useless in their hands, so a few people simply didn't buy them. Only Tang Xiaotian, after seeing some things that were useful to the forging body cultivator, took a closer look. But after thinking about it, I still didn't buy it.
Several people present were slightly curious about the situation, and when Xu Chenglin told him that he had introduced an apprentice to Tang Xiaotian, several people laughed. It was hard for them to imagine what it would be like for Tang Xiaotian to take his apprentices. Many monks are still apprentices of others at their age, and it is really inconceivable that they should be other people's masters now.
Hearing Xu Chenglin mention the matter of his apprentice, Tang Xiaotian naturally asked for a gift for his apprentice.
"I said that you, the introducer, don't you want to send something to my little apprentice?"
Hearing this, Xu Chenglin smiled and looked at Tang Xiaotian a little speechlessly.
"It's really not that a family doesn't enter the door, how can you be the same money fan as your apprentice? You are embarrassed to speak, don't you know that I gave her a lot of good things?"
Tang Xiaotian laughed, but didn't say anything more. Several people continued to walk along the road of Fang City in a burst of laughter.
A few more hours passed, and I saw that the whole market was about to be finished. And at this time, except for a few things that Tang Xiaotian had bought that were extremely useful to the Qi Condensing Cultivator, the rest of them still found nothing.
"I said Lao Wu, aren't you very lucky, why can't you do it this time?"
Chen Luoxue mocked Tang Xiaotian in disguise as she walked.
Knowing that Chen Luoxue was joking with you, Tang Xiaotian smiled indifferently, and then spoke.
"It's true that I was lucky, but I'm stronger. Only those who have no strength pin all their hopes on illusory luck. ”
"It's shameless, put gold on your face!"
Hearing Tang Xiaotian's reply, Chen Luoxue rolled her eyes and scolded him directly.
Tang Xiaotian laughed, acquiescing to Chen Luoxue's words. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he felt a familiar feeling in his heart. He used to quarrel with Wang Xiaoan like this, but he didn't expect Wang Xiaoan to fail to come over this time, but it was Chen Luoxue who continued to quarrel with him. This made him have a lot of fun in his spare time.
Seeing that the entire Fang City was about to be turned around by a few people, Xu Chenglin suddenly stopped. He touched his waist, his eyes wandering around for a while, and finally settled on a direction. Without greeting everyone, Xu Chenglin hurriedly walked in that direction. Seeing this, the rest of the people looked at each other and didn't ask Xu Chenglin why, and hurriedly followed him to act.
Before coming to a messy stall, Xu Chenglin looked left and right, and finally grabbed an old book. He patted the dust off the book and looked at it carefully.
"This fellow Daoist, but you have taken a fancy to this basic method?"
When the stall owner saw that there was business coming to his door, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet Xu Chenglin.
Xu Chenglin nodded, did not answer the stall owner's words, but continued to examine it carefully. Of course, in the eyes of many people, Xu Chenglin is looking at the books in his hands. But Ximen Feng and the others noticed that Xu Chenglin's attention was actually on a few transparent beads the size of a fingernail.
People who often visit the market know that the market can be bargained. Xu Chenglin naturally negotiated with the stall owner, and finally bought the basic formula in his hand, and also asked for a few transparent beads.
"I like this thing, I don't know where you got it?"
Pinching the transparent beads and shining in the sun, Xu Chenglin asked the stall owner with a smile.
"You're really...... Forget it, for the sake of today, this is the first business I opened, and I'll tell you! Although this thing is not worth a few money, its origin is extraordinary. It is said that this thing came from the Lost Sea, and it seems to have been formed from the body of some demon beast. Although this bead is extremely rich in spiritual power, there is no way to use it. ”
The stall owner looked at Xu Chenglin, and then asked mysteriously.
"Don't you know how to use this bead?"
How could Xu Chenglin tell the truth, he shook his head with a smile and left the stall directly. When Ximen Feng and others saw this, they also followed Xu Chenglin.
"Third child, what is this?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to a few people around, Ximen Feng asked in a low voice.
Xu Chenglin did not hide a few people, and told them the truth.
"I don't know! I felt that Tongtian Linghu had some reaction to him, so I bought it. ”
Several people knew about Xu Chenglin's Tongtian Linghu, and when they heard that it had something to do with it, everyone couldn't help but be curious, and urged Xu Chenglin to find a secluded place and study it carefully. But as he walked, Chen Moheng felt that something was wrong. He thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized what the problem was. Stopping, Chen Moheng whispered in disbelief.
The material of the transmission note comes from the Lost Sea, and this transparent orb also comes from the Lost Sea, so there is probably some relationship between the two. ”
Chen Moheng didn't say it, and others hadn't thought of it yet. After his reminder, they found that several people in the Lost Sea seemed to be no strangers. Wandering in the sea area, they had heard it from Chen Moheng's mouth before.
Several people subconsciously stopped, and when Chen Moheng mentioned the Lost Sea Area, they all had a slight change in their hearts. In the dark, it seems that there is an indescribable connection between the Lost Sea and several people.
"Lost in the Sea, could it be that we misjudged before, that the matter of the transmission note was not an accident, but just a beginning?"
Frowning slightly, Ximen Feng said this. The rest frowned and remained silent, apparently having a similar opinion.
Looking up at the sky, Ximen Feng felt as if countless transparent silk threads had appeared on everyone's bodies, stretching out into the invisible distance. And in the distance, out of sight, there is a dark whirlpool.
