Chapter 51: The Nine Paths of Heaven

When we arrived at the blacksmith's compound, it was full of fire. There are bare-chested men in front of all kinds of bellows, furnaces, and anvils. They didn't pay attention to the blacksmith when they saw it, just doing the work mechanically.

The blacksmith brought Cheng Yu to the hall, and there were dishes on the square table, "It's rare that someone can accompany me, an old man, if you don't get drunk today." ”

"Where's my sister-in-law?"

"What's the matter, it's not enough to get my daughter, but also to get my insider?"

β€œ......”

"Hahahaha, my daughter is high-spirited and doesn't want to strike iron with me, so she went to Wuzhuang City to learn art. Your sister-in-law also went with the girl. ”

Cheng Yu is actually very awkward, mainly because he can't put himself in the right position, so he simply drinks with his head bored.

The blacksmith didn't care about him, he drank to himself, and said, "You came to me to let me take you to the upper district, right?"

"Yes, I was pitted and fell into the lower area. If I go back like this, I don't know when I will be able to come down without rice. ”

"I can take you to the upper district, but I have one condition. ”

"On what terms?"

"You have to find a chance to make my name for being straight, my equipment doesn't need to be reckless, and I use it as a mark. ”

"Do you have anything to do with the Lu family?" asked Cheng Yu without hesitation.

"I've long looked down on them, and now I only know how to make some mass-produced things, and I don't have the spirit of creation in the ancient teachings of the Lu family. ”

"I can promise you, but I don't know exactly when or under what circumstances. ”

"No problem, anyway, you can run the monk and can't run the temple, I heard that Gao Luo, this girl is very energetic?"

"Senior!

The blacksmith fooled him again with a hahahaha laugh. The two drank and talked happily, and Cheng Yu also got more information from the blacksmith.

The upper area needs the spirit stones from the spirit stone mines in the lower area. Every month, the blacksmith would bring spirit stones to exchange for rice. This is the main purpose, and there are some minor things that will also be focused on this one transaction.

For example, the girls who are used for waste in the upper district every year will be sold to the lower district at a low price. Some specially planted plants in the lower area, such as the blood rhododendron, which is watered with blood, will also go to the upper area in exchange for rice. Others, such as those seen in front of the blacksmith's courtyard, will also be handled by the blacksmith.

Although the blacksmith is a goods carrier, he is the only lifeline in the lower district.

After three rounds of drinking, Cheng Yu didn't know when he was drunk, and when he woke up, the blacksmith was already busy outside. Dozens of people each pushed a small wooden cart, covered with black cloth, which should be the spirit stones traded with the upper district.

Cheng Yu left the injured Xiao Hei in the house and walked to the blacksmith, "Do you want me to help?"

The blacksmith nodded slightly, "You follow the convoy in case a mob comes to rob you." ”

It didn't take long for everything to be ready, and the convoy was marching along the cliff wall to the upper area.

There is only a narrow cliff dirt road connecting the two districts. Wanting to smuggle into the upper district is impossible for the people in the lower district.

Cheng Yu followed the convoy smoothly to a large platform, the platform was facing a large iron gate, and there were well-armed archers on each gate on each side of the iron gate.

After identifying the blacksmith, the door slowly opened. The convoy entered the upper district, and Cheng Yu took a look, this upper district was no different from the market in Gao Laozhuang, all kinds of shops with different shapes.

"I'll go and make a deal with the city lord, you can wander around, and in two hours, we will meet at the gate. ”

"City Lord?"

"A man who claims to be the lord of the city is unfathomable", the blacksmith answered.

Cheng Yu was worried about Xiao Hei's injury, and he was going to go to the Demon Pill Store and the Lu family refining weapon before returning to Gao Laozhuang. In order to avoid accidents, the blacksmith agreed to return to the lower area together.

The convoy slowly walked to the highest point in the upper area, and Cheng Yu followed the blacksmith's diagram and went straight to the magic pill shop.

Walking along the street where various pills and herbs were sold, a large shop with a faΓ§ade like a huge beast appeared in front of you.

The iron rule of the upper area is fair trade, one is to ensure the fairness of the transaction, and the other is to ensure the conduct of the transaction. Anyone who violates this rule will be ruthlessly wiped out, so Cheng Yu entered the store without hesitation.

There were no clerks in the shop, only tin boxes containing magic pills on wooden shelves. There is a funnel-shaped device behind the wooden frame, which is the place where the trading goods are placed.

Anyone can barter or throw in spirit stones. When the shopkeeper thinks the price is right, the deal will be closed, otherwise, the transaction will be re-ejected.

There are many people in the store who try to put various items in front of their favorite magic pills, and at most they make one mistake and can't try again today. The rules of this pill shop were once used by a troublemaker who threw a pebble at each pill shelf, so that no one else could trade that day, and the man died on the street in two days.

Cheng Yu walked in and saw that the iron box was marked with the appearance of the hunted demon, supernatural powers, etc., which was convenient for buyers to judge the value of the magic pill. The people who swallow the pill alive are a bunch of gamblers who love the thrill and adventure, and the pill shop is the liveliest place in the entire upper district.

Cheng Yu didn't linger in the Demon Pill area, and went straight to the innermost, where there were only nine jade shelves in one area, corresponding to the Nine Realms of Heaven, and there were only two or three jade boxes on the shelves.

Cheng Yu has a little understanding of the Nine Paths of Heaven, like Gao Luo's cultivation is the way of the body, refining the body, raising momentum, and exorcising spirits. When they reach the ground, they are called Inhumans, and their bones, blood, internal organs, flesh, and skin will all have their own gods. Further up the heavenly steps, Cheng Yu is not clear.

In addition, there are also the way of gods, the way of weapons, the way of magic, the way of demons, the way of ghosts, the way of art, the way of life, and the way of witches.

The way of God is simply to invite God to descend to the spirit, to give divine powers, and so on. It is said to have a close relationship with the nine main gods.

The way of the instrument is a profession related to machine making, and many of the giants of the Lu family and the Flame Mountain area practice this way.

According to Cheng Yu's understanding, the way of art is the Five Elements Warlock, Dramatist, and Charmer. A spiritual path that pays great attention to inheritance and creativity.

The path of the devil is the simplest, and those who devour the demon pill and continue to evolve can be classified into this category. But obviously this way will not be so simple, Cheng Yu has always held a respectful attitude.

The way of ghosts is the path of cultivation that focuses on the soul, perhaps Bai Que knows some of the ways in this regard, and the ghost sword in his hand is the magic weapon of this way.

The birthplace of the way of art is Wuzhuang City, which is said to have a great relationship with the Tianmu family, mainly in the form of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, which is the favorite of literary and artistic youth.

The way of life is the doorways of medicine, poison, food, and wine, and Gao Jiu should have reached the realm of a great drunkard at the ground level.

The last way of witchcraft is mainly in the witch country of Jianmu, proficient in all kinds of witchcraft and spells, and the specific details are also cloudy.

Each of the nine realms has three levels, and each of them has some professions, such as pilgrims in the path of instruments. Cheng Yu had already thought about getting started with this profession, and at this time he looked at the nine jade shelves nervously, and the jade shelves of the Tao of the Prayer Vessel should not be empty.
