Chapter 4: Trade Fairs
Yu Nie accepted the Xuanguang Mirror, feeling a little embarrassed, so he gave Yu Taigong more than a dozen talismans, saying that if someone wants to go far away, he will bring one with him, which can prevent some lonely souls and wild ghosts from making trouble. In addition, he also left a bottle of elixir, refined with some precious medicinal materials, eating it can prolong life and get rid of all diseases, Yu Taigong accepted it happily, although he said that he had lived enough for a lot of years, but who would really be afraid of a long life?
These things are indeed extremely precious compared to ordinary people, but compared with the Xuanguang Mirror given by Yu Taigong, it is still a lot worse, but Yu Nie can't help it, no matter how precious things are, it's not that there are no precious things, but Yu Taigong still doesn't accept it, and he doesn't want to cause trouble to the people of Yujiazhuang, so he has to give up.
Let's let these people live carefree!
Thinking like this, Yu Nie politely declined Yu Taigong's invitation to linger for a few more days, and set out on the road again.
Yu Nie's purpose is very clear, that is, to go to Tiannan Mountain. This is because when he was traveling south, he suddenly remembered one thing, the triennial Tongdao Exchange and Trade Fair held in Tiannan Mountain was also in the south, and it seemed to be held in the near future. The exchange trade fair is referred to as the trade fair, at that time, there will be a lot of loose cultivators gathered in Tiannan Mountain, exchanging various experiences and trading practice resources with each other, in addition to these loose cultivators, there are also famous and decent disciples will also participate, these people do not lack the guidance of famous teachers, most of the people who participate in the trade fair are because they need to find some rare materials, no way, who calls the loose cultivators like to drill around, compared to these people who stay in the sect all year round to practice, it is naturally easier to find some rare things.
Yu Nie wants to participate in this trade fair, firstly, because he wants to have a long experience, and secondly, because he has an elder who will also participate in the Tiannan Mountain Trade Fair, and his master has passed away, so it is natural to inform his master's friend.
Of course, since he was participating in the fair, he naturally had to prepare some things to prepare for trading, so in addition to looking at the contents of his storage bag, he also opened the storage bag of the monk who killed his master to see what was inside.
At this moment, he was playing with the Xuanguang Mirror in one hand and a palm-sized jade plaque in the other, with a thoughtful look on his face.
The front of this jade plaque is engraved with "Zhang Chao", the back is carved with a mountain range, in the middle is carved a lifelike mountain, the size is about half the length of the jade plaque, there are pieces of auspicious clouds, several cranes, on both sides of this mountain is another hill, these hills are like the stars and the moon will be surrounded by the mountains in the middle, below this mountain range, printed with the word "Qiyun". In addition, there is also a small formation in this jade card, Yu Nie tried to input mana to stimulate it, the background on the back of the jade card is presented a few feet above the jade card, about two feet in size, under the Qiyun Mountain Range, there is also an ordinary-looking young man's head. Zhang Chao on the front should be this person's name, and at the same time, he killed his master, and Qi Yun on the reverse side refers to Qi Yunmen, in short, this jade plate is a status symbol.
Yu Nie thought about it for a while, and felt that most of this brand still had some effect, so she didn't lose it and put it away.
Yu Nie took the jade plaque and began to play with the Xuanguang Mirror, this mirror is not known to be made of any material, the whole body is mercury, especially the mirror nodded slightly, it can also ripple like the surface of the water.
Yu Ne remembered that the scene of his first experiment was a moment of fear, and that night when he was resting on a mountain, he looked at the moonlight, and took out the mirror to see what was so special about it. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took it out, the mirror reflected a long pillar of light against the moonlight. He didn't take it seriously at first, but before long there was a commotion in the surrounding woods, and he was surrounded by wolves. Yu Ne still didn't take it seriously, and after a while, when he was surrounded by a group of people who were about to become a spirit and had become a spirit, it was too late, in addition to all kinds of monsters, there were more than a dozen ghosts floating above the woods, and seeing that this encirclement was gradually expanding, Yu Ne turned around and ran without saying a word, and Yu Ne ran for a few hours before he threw off the pursuers behind him.
Since then, he has learned his lesson, and when he takes out the Xuanguang mirror on a moonlit night, he will first lay out a formation, which is used to block out the light emitted by the mirror so that the outside world cannot see it. It was only through this research that I figured out the role of a mirror, which can absorb the light of the moon and shoot out a pillar of light, and the reflected pillar of light contains a certain amount of moonlight. It basically means that this mirror can condense the power of the moon, and those demons and monsters are attracted to it. And this mirror can condense the power of the moonlight and maintain it for a while, even without moonlight. Of course, this effect is not very attractive to Yune, for him, this must be more of an extra light at night, or the kind that is easy to attract demons and monsters.
In fact, what Yu Ni values most is its ability to seal, no one can control the Xuanguang Mirror to trap a demon who has been practicing for decades, if someone controls the power, it will definitely be stronger, and even if you can't suck the monster into the mirror and trap it, you can also freeze it for a period of time, the specific time depends on the strength of the monster.
Therefore, if the moon comes out of the dark sky, Yu Ne will lay out a formation, and then take out the Xuanguang Mirror and throw it aside, allowing it to absorb the moon essence on its own.
After playing with the Xuanguang Mirror, Yu Nie put it in the storage bag, and then shouted at the back of the tree, "Dumb." ”
No one responded.
Yune screamed again.
Still no movement.
Yu Ne couldn't, so he got up and walked behind the tree, where a little donkey of half the size was happily eating the grass, and took his call as the wind in his ears.
That night he was chased and ran for several hours, and was so tired that he almost collapsed, and since then he has been so disgusted with running that he doesn't even want to walk normally, so he spent money to buy a small donkey for use as a hurry when passing through a small town.
The donkey is a very stupid animal, and Yu Ne rode a little donkey to hurry, and he only had to tie a carrot with a rope and hang it with a stick, and reach out to the donkey, and the little donkey would be tired and panting and stride forward, and while walking, he would open his mouth to eat, and the demon would not stop until he ate.
Yune doesn't abuse it, and she doesn't rush to leave, so she stops every once in a while to let it drink some water and eat some green vegetables and radishes to replenish its strength.
Yu Nie looked at the little donkey who didn't take him seriously, sighed, reached out and picked up a stick from the side, took out a carrot from the storage bag and tied it to the rope, and then shook it in front of the little donkey's eyes, and the little donkey was caught like fishing, grinning to eat the carrot.
Yu Ne rolled over and rode on the little donkey, and the carrot stretched out in the direction he was going, and the little donkey hurried on his way.
······
Tiannan Mountain is about more than 200 zhang high, it is shrouded in white fog all the year round, the more you go up, the more dense the white fog, if you reach the place halfway up the mountain, you can't see the five fingers. Of course, the place where the fog is thickest is only east of Tiannan Mountain, if it is changed to other places, although the fog is thick, it does not affect the people under the mountain to go up the mountain to cut wood.
People have always loved gossip, and they are even more curious about the unknown, and for the world in the white mist, there are some bold villagers who have gone on adventures a few times, but even the best hunters will not be able to figure out the direction when they enter, and after a while they will return to the starting point in a daze.
After a long time, the villagers got used to it, but the legend about the east of Tiannan Mountain gradually spread.
Of course, Yu Nee knew what was going on, this was a "cloud and mist" array arranged on the mountain, this array was not lethal, and its function was only to prevent the monks on the mountain from being discovered by the secular people and causing trouble.
Yu Nie also knew that this formation was laid by his master Zhimu Daoren, and this trade fair was also initiated by Zhimu Dao people in conjunction with a few colleagues, and after a few times, there were more people who knew about it, and it formed a large scale.
When he got to the bottom of the mountain, he sold the little donkey and went up the mountain while no one was paying attention. On the way up the mountain, Yu Ne also saw a few people from the same way coming down the mountain, although these people saw Yu Ne, although they were not guarded, but they did not come to deal with it, but hurried by.
After eating a wild fruit, and halfway up the mountain, he lost the kernel and walked into the clouds.
This cloud and mist can't see the five fingers, let alone a mortal, even a monk, if there is no guide, after a long time inside, it will not be able to feel the direction and will be automatically teleported in. The so-called road guide is a kind of jade item in the shape of Sinan, the jade plate can dispel the surrounding fog, and the finger needle can sense the position of the array disk at the core of the formation.
Yu Nie took the cloud and mist path guide, input mana, the jade plate emitted a faint light, and the clouds and mist dissipated under the light irradiation, showing a three-four-zhang hollow, and people don't have to worry about the safety of their feet when they go inside. Yu Ni dialed the finger hand, the pointer shook a few times, then pointed to one side, he looked at the cloud and mist road guide, thinking that his master was responsible for leading the way the first few times, and now he was the only one left, and he couldn't help but feel a gloom in his heart.
Yu Ne walked for a while, and suddenly saw a child in a green coat sitting under a tree in front of him, with two horns on his head.
The boy had been sitting under the tree and was depressed, but suddenly he felt that the clouds around him had receded and a light was coming, and when he looked up, he saw Yune, and his face immediately turned with joy, and he hurriedly got up from the ground and ran over.
"This eldest brother is also here for the Tiannan Trade Fair, right? I have met Brother Tai in Fang Jing of the Shifang Courtyard of Xia Xiaoyun Mountain! Let's go in together, okay?" the child ran up to Yu Nie and said impatiently.
Yu Nie saw the child's appearance clearly at this time, and saw that the other party's eyebrows were clear, his cheeks were slightly red, and his face was full of childishness. He asked, "What about your parents?"
Fang Jing scratched her head embarrassedly and said, "The master doesn't take me, I ran out secretly, I hope the eldest brother will do me a favor." He looked at Yune with expectant eyes.
Yu Ni frowned and said, "Is your family inside?"
Fang Jing said: "Yes, yes, it's inside, big brother just needs to take me in." ”
The other party was a child who was not deeply involved in the world, and Yu Nie was not easy to refuse, so he said, "Okay, you come with me." ”
"Great, finally able to get in. As soon as Fang Jing heard Yu Nie's words, he immediately cheered excitedly, he entered this cloud and mist array, and he couldn't figure out the direction, and then he simply found a tree to sit down, planning to try his luck and see if he could wait for someone in the same way, he waited for a long time, if he still couldn't meet anyone, he could only walk around, and wait for the formation to teleport out.
Yu Nie led the way, Fang Jing followed behind, chattering like a bird along the way, talking non-stop, Yu Nie was also very happy to listen, from this Fang Jing, he found his own shadow, and also chatted with the other party from time to time. After walking for more than an hour, the two came to a cave.
