The post station outside the town is not big, just a small shifting array. But the people of the Eastern Dynasty live and work in peace and contentment, and the business is developed, so the exchanges between various places are very close, and the mobile array is extremely convenient, so as the only small mobile array within dozens of miles, there is a long queue here early.

"Why are there so many people here? Qianwen asked impatiently.

"Hehe, five or six towns around here share this small shifting array, and it's natural that there are a lot of people. ”

After waiting for a while, it was already Yang Tianchen.

"Little Lord, it's your turn. Bai Slash reminded, Yang Tianchen heard this, stepped forward, and smiled politely at the post chief who was about forty years old sitting in front of him.

"Young man, you're alone?"

"Yes, I'm alone. ”

"I'll tell you first, it's at least a thousand miles to walk here, and if it's too close, you might as well travel by carriage. The postmaster said.

"I know. ”

"Know?" Hearing this, the post chief couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, became a little interested, and asked, "Then where are you going?" ”

"Shitan City. ”

"Shi Tan! that's far enough. The post chief looked a little surprised, he had never seen such a young person go so far, "Look at your appearance, learn martial arts." ”

"Yes. ”

"Where to apprentice?"

"Not counting, visiting a person. ”

"When you go out so far at a young age, your father and mother are relieved of you. The post chief smiled and said, "Okay, hand over 5,800 beads." ”

"Give. Yang Tianchen is not short of money now, so he gave it generously.

"This is your brand, just return it to the post station in Shitan City when you are done. Sit there and wait, and then we'll be in battle. After speaking, the post chief took out a palm-sized crystal clear red sign and handed it to Yang Tianchen, who took the sign, and after seeing the stone Tan written on it, he put it in his arms, found a vacant seat and sat down and waited.

"Next. ”

Yang Tianchen sat quietly and looked around at the people in this post station.

Most of them are businessmen who go out to do business, and there are also some martial cultivators, except for the two men sitting next to the post chief who are in the Danhai realm, the other highest realms are only in the Danhai realm.

This shifting array is all from the imperial court, but I am not afraid that someone will dare to rob, so there is no need to leave many people to guard it.

I don't know anyone, Yang Tianchen didn't sit idle and bored to find someone to talk about, in line with the principle of being able to keep his mouth shut in the group and keep his heart alone, he just sat alone.

After a while, a man with a hunched waist shouted in the direction of Yang Tianchen.

"It's time to start the formation, and everyone who wants to leave will follow me in!"

Hearing this, a group of people stood up and walked towards the gossip disc one after another, and Yang Tianchen also followed inside.

Seeing that no one was going into battle again, the man from before was ready.

"It's up, stand up!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw a white light rising up along the edge of the gossip array, surrounding the people in the array. With a whoosh, more than a dozen people standing on the stage disappeared from the array.

What appeared in front of Yang Tianchen was a bizarre scene, trees, people, rivers, bridges, mountains, and rivers...... It's all fleeting. The person who was originally standing beside Yang Tianchen now disappeared from his field of vision.

"Haha, Xiao Yiyi! This world is really extraordinary, compared to what I saw in the previous book and the real thing are completely different! The world is wonderful, and in the future, I will definitely see this world all over!" Yang Tianchen said excitedly.

"It's time to see, not to go through the world in vain. You kid has the capital to say something like that. Qian asked.

Yang Tianchen couldn't help but be happy when he saw that Qianwen didn't say anything to make him angry!

"Don't worry, leave it to me, the principle of saving life first, we can't die!"

When Qianwen heard this, he smiled and said, "You kid, you still have a breath when you say you are fat, practice honestly!"

Yang Tianchen smiled but did not speak.

Three hours passed quietly along the way, and at this time, the hand in Yang Tianchen's arms glowed slightly red.

"Looks like it's coming!"

"Well, get ready, it's coming. ”

As he spoke, a red light rose, and with a strong momentum in his hand, he pulled Yang Tianchen out of the gossip array.

The eyes suddenly brightened up, and suddenly it became clear.

Yang Tianchen looked around, the array was no different from that of Gushan, and the post station was similar. There are all kinds of stone pillars carved or dragon or phoenix, or unicorn or python standing around, but it shows the characteristics of Shitan City, a famous city of strange stones.

The first time he went out so far, Yang Tianchen couldn't help but be a little excited, he kept looking around, everything in front of him was so fresh.

"Hey, hey, that person, what are you looking at!" A voice came, Yang Tianchen followed the voice, and saw a young man in fancy clothes looking in his direction.

"Yes, yes, that means you!"

"Me?" asked Yang Tianchen.

"That's right, it's you, what are you doing standing in the formation without handing over the sign!"

"Oh! yes, hand over the sign. Hearing what the man said, Yang Tianchen realized that he was still standing stupidly on the formation, and hurriedly came down and walked to the post station to hand over the cards, "Hehe, big brother, I'm sorry! ”

The young man waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay." First time in Shitan City?"

"Yes, for the first time. ”

"What, come play?"

"No, the boss told me to do something. ”

"Yohe, seeing that you are not old, can you still go out on an errand alone?"

"Alas, the boss insisted that I come out to practice, and I was the one who suffered!"

"Then I'm a little curious, who does my friend do on an errand?"

"For the Baibao Club, come to meet Mr. Tang Wenze, does my brother know how to go to the Tang Mansion?" Yang Tianchen said casually.

"Mr. Tang Wenze!" the young man was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Well, what, is there any problem?" Yang Tianchen asked in confusion about the young man's reaction.

"It's nothing, it's just, this Old Man Tang is not easy to see!"

"Hehe, it's nothing, the boss said that he has some friendship with him, and I still have a letter of introduction, which can be seen. ”

I saw the young man leaning closer and whispering in Yang Tianchen's ear, "There has been something going on in Master Tang's house recently, and it is difficult for outsiders to see it." ”

"Oh, I don't know what's going on?" Yang Tianchen became curious when he heard this, and inquired by the way.

"I can't say that, you better go to the town and inquire yourself. It's useless for me to show you the way here, when you enter the town, you can ask anyone who knows where the Tang Mansion is. ”

"Well, well, don't bother. Yang Tianchen saw that the young man didn't want to say it, and he didn't force it, so he hugged his fists and said goodbye.

Ask pedestrians all the way, and after a short time, Yang Tianchen walked into Shitan Town.

Unlike Gushan, which only has a morning market, it is now noon, but Shitan Town is still crowded with traffic, greetings, and shouting are endless.

"Sugar gourd, gourd, sell sugar gourd!"

"Dogs, cats, rabbits! Hey, miss, buy a rabbit and raise it at home, you see how cute it is. ”

"Don't miss it when you pass by, ancestral martial arts, come and come, take a look, ancestral martial arts! The price is fair, how young man, martial arts, come and see, this is a powerful martial arts." Alas, don't go, alas, the price is fair, hey, alas!"

"Hey, guest officer, do you want to stay in the hotel?"

"Come, guest officer, please come in. Visitors, two, eat!"

Yang Tianchen rarely goes out, although he has seen similar scenes in Gushan, but now he changes places, he just feels fresh, and he can't help but look at it everywhere!

This Shitan city is famous for its stones, what strange stones, dark stones, beautiful jade, blood-containing stones, carved ornamental stones. There are all kinds of stones, and you can find almost any stone you can think of here.

It's hard to go out, although he came with a purpose, but since he came here, Yang Tianchen couldn't help but plan to see those strange stones with his own eyes.

There are many shops along the way, full of all kinds of stones, Yang Tianchen is also full of eyes, too expensive, reluctant to have money in his pocket.

I always feel inappropriate to go out so far and go back without some specialties. Yang Tianchen walked around and decided to buy something inexpensive.

I found a slightly lively stall group, glanced at it casually, and immediately found an inconspicuous stall on the side of the street with various stone tools of all sizes.

The stall is a young man in his twenties, dressed plainly, and his face does not look overly handsome, but Yang Tianchen has been very good at observing words and expressions since he was a child, and at a glance, he knows that this person is definitely not an ordinary hawker, and he is dressed too well!

Out of curiosity, Yang Tianchen walked towards the young man.

Walking in front of him, Yang Tianchen stood and looked at it, but the young man lowered his head and didn't look at him, which made Yang Tianchen feel surprised and couldn't help laughing.

"Hehe, this guy does business like this, it's no wonder that he can make money! ”

He looked at the thirty or so stone tools in front of him, ranging from a ring to a stone basin.

Each piece is exquisite, whether it is a carved dragon and phoenix unicorn, or a rat, monkey and tiger, a flower, grass, tree and tree are all lifelike. Only then did Yang Tianchen admire the skills of the craftsmen of Shitancheng, and his reputation was well deserved.

With great interest, I picked up a brush made of gray stone carved pen barrel and watched it carefully, and turned it around my fingertips a few times, which was very convenient.

Yang Tianchen immediately planned to buy this pen.

"Shop, how much do you sell this pen?" asked Yang Tianchen.

I saw that the young man raised his head and glanced at the pen in Yang Tianchen's hand, lowered his head again, carved a blood-red stone in his hand, and said lightly, "Eight hundred beads!"

"What! Eight hundred, why don't you grab it?" Yang Tianchen almost fell off his eyes when he heard the price of the Youth Daily, a pen, he actually asked for eight hundred beads, and he didn't believe it when he was killed, and his first reaction was that this kid deliberately killed him as an outsider.

"If you don't buy it, put it there, don't delay my business. ”

"Hey! I've never seen anyone do this kind of business!" Yang Tianchen was stunned by the young man, and couldn't help but be stunned, "This young master, with your attitude of doing business, where will anyone come to you to buy things!"

"Isn't it, little brother, don't waste your time with that kid surnamed Tao, come to me and see, the price is much fairer than his!" At this time, a middle-aged merchant with sharp-beaked monkey cheeks who was in the stone tool business next to him echoed, wanting to pull Yang Tianchen over.

Seeing that his guests were about to be snatched away, the young man was not in a hurry, and still did his own thing. Yang Tianchen simply ignored him and walked to the stall next to him.

"Hehe, little brother, look at my things, they are no worse than his, choose whatever you want, the price is negotiable. "That middle-aged humane.

Yang Tianchen didn't plan to buy it, but just took a general look, and it was indeed similar to the young man's things. You can pick up a few pieces, and after a little look, you will find that they are greasy, and none of these carvings can be compared with the young man's. It's lifeless, and every line is so rigid.

Yang Tianchen chose a stone pen that looked similar to the same material as the one just now, and asked, "How much do you sell for this?"

The man exaggerated, "The guest officer has a good eye, this is the most high-grade stone carving in my pile, you look at this straightness, look at this point, look at this belly, look at this root." Look at it, there's still this carved pattern, and it's ......."

"You just say how much it is, right?" Yang Tianchen didn't bother to listen to his nonsense, and asked directly.

"Hehe, it's the first time I've come to our Shitan City, since that's the case, I can't trick you and ruin the image of our Shitan. In this way, I will give you a cost price, eighty pearls!"

"What, eighty?" Yang Tianchen said in surprise.

"Guest officer, eighty is already the lowest, it can't be cheaper!"

Yang Tianchen really didn't know what to say, the previous eight hundred, a few steps apart, instantly became eighty, the gap between them is inevitably too big! Although the carving skills are indeed a lot worse, but the price is really unbelievable!

"Cut!"

At this time, a sound of disdain came into Yang Tianchen's ears. He turned his head to see that the young man was still carving his own stone, but the disdain was indeed from him.

"Tao Xing, what do you mean, seeing me doing business, my eyes are red!" The middle-aged man obviously also heard the disdain of the young man, and said angrily.

"Tao Xing. Yang Tianchen silently remembered this name.

"The worldly people ......," Tao Xing said indifferently.

"Stinky boy, the master has given you face, right, let you set up a stall with me for two days, you are still qualified to be old! You still want to do business, and you haven't sold a fart for two days, let alone feed your brother, just don't starve to death!" said the middle-aged man angrily.

When Tao Xing heard this, he raised his head, his eyes suddenly became fierce, and his two eyes shot at the middle-aged man like sharp swords, which immediately made him tremble. Even Yang Tianchen on the side couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this!

"Is it a martial artist?" Yang Tianchen thought secretly, carefully looking at Tao Xing who was sitting there, "Hey! I can't see it if I don't look carefully, do you deliberately restrain your breath! Danhai Realm Surface, that momentum, Yang Baili is not as good as him!"

Seeing that the middle-aged man stopped talking, Tao Xing turned around and went about his business.

"Second uncle, what do you think of this pottery shop?" Yang Tianchen asked curiously.

"Hehe, this young man, he is not low in talent and diligent in cultivation. If you want to fight with him and help you talk big, within five moves, you will lose!" Qian Wen said with a smile, deliberately looking at Yang Tianchen's reaction.

"Five moves, second master, did you still help me say a big thing in five moves?" Yang Tianchen obviously didn't believe it, "Yang Baili is the realm of the Danhai Realm, I dare to say that I am invincible within fifty moves, how can this Tao Xing defeat me so easily?"

Qianwen shook his head and said, "I didn't lie to you, the five moves are still a conservative estimate, and the real situation is uncertain!"

When Yang Tianchen heard Qianwen say this, he could only smile helplessly.

Qian Wen continued, "Look at the red stone in this young man's hand. ”

Yang Tianchen immediately turned his gaze to the blood-red stone in Tao Xing's hand, and was puzzled, and asked, "What, why is this red stone extraordinary?"

"Hehe, why don't you still say that you read poetry and books so much that you don't even know a stone?"

"I'm not a jack of all trades, how can I understand everything, if I want to settle accounts and memorize poems, I'm definitely not bad!" Yang Tianchen defended.

"Come on, don't brag about your knowledge in front of me. Qianwen said proudly, "This stone is called Meteorite Jade, the texture is hard, and the diamond is nothing in front of it, but although it is hard, it is easy to break. ”

"How's that going?"

"How? Hmph, look at the young man's carving skills. Qianwen reminded.

Hearing this, Yang Tianchen took a closer look at the carving of Tao Xing.

A cloth-wrapped black iron carving knife, the index finger and middle finger are on the edge of the carving knife, the ring finger touches the jade, and the little finger wipes every place where the carving knife has been cut. A knife moment is logical, and the flow is smooth. It's like a calligrapher painting cursive, like a painter splashing ink on the landscape. Sometimes fast and sometimes slow, like a beaten beat, one deep and one shallow, like a jumping spirit bird.

"It's not just his works, even his skills are works of art!" Yang Tianchen made no secret of his admiration.

"What do you kid look at, and praise his carving?" Qian Wen reprimanded.

"Didn't you tell me to show him his skills?"

"You!alas, I want you to see the substance!" Qianwen sighed, "I don't expect you to find out on your own, I'll tell you." According to the speed of this young man, and the depth of the carving. He must have at least 600 catties of strength in this knife, far more than you. And that's just the strength of his fingers. Looking at what he carved, the edges of each carving were round and smooth without a single crack. This hand alone shows that his control over power is more than a little bit higher than that of the same cultivators. ”

Yang Tianchen listened carefully to Qianwen's analysis, and the more surprised he became.

"And his legs. ”

"Legs?" Hearing Qian Wen pull from his fingers to his legs, Yang Tianchen was even more puzzled, "What's the matter with your legs?"

"Hmph, I'm not afraid to scare you when I say it. The fingers are 600 catties, plus the force exerted by the arm, at least 2,000 catties. It was all pressed on his left leg, but his left foot was on tiptoe, and he didn't have any difficulty at all. From this, it is not difficult to guess his speed, and his body is only stronger than yours. So, if he wants to capture you, five moves are enough. ”

"So evil!" Yang Tianchen stared at Tao Xing's legs with wide eyes.

"Now I've seen it!" Qianwen said knockingly, "Don't underestimate anyone in the future, you have to learn from these experiences of the old man!"

"Well, I've seen it. Yang Tianchen said, leaving the middle-aged man's stall and walking towards Tao Xing. Pull out eight hundred beads from the storage ring.

"Hey, I've got it. After speaking, he handed the money to Tao Xing.

At this time, Tao Xing raised his head, and looked at Yang Tianchen with an incredible look, and forgot to collect the money for a while.

"What, aren't you selling?" asked Yang Tianchen with a smile.

Hearing Yang Tianchen's question, Tao Xing came back to his senses, put away his surprise, didn't speak, took the money, and gave the stone pen to Yang Tianchen.

"Thank you!"

Just as Yang Tianchen was about to leave, Tao Xing said, although he still lowered his head.
