Chapter 47: Fang City
It's just a small competition within the sect, and it's not really an enemy, but that monk is really aggressive, and the big knife cuts without a trace of concern, which makes Jiang Jiutian gradually grow a little angry. Thinking about it, as a monk, the injury of the sword is nothing, and the two of them are of the same level, and the other party is not a puppet who will not dodge, even if it is injured, where can it hurt, and besides, there are high-ranking monks on the side to record and take care of it.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jiutian also let go of his hands and feet, and when the other party slashed again, he didn't dodge or dodge, moved the sword and stabbed it, and the last shot came first, stabbing the opponent's wrist with the knife. As soon as the opponent's strength was discharged, the knife naturally failed. The man bullied him again, and waved his fist at Jiang Jiutian's side face and ear with the other hand, Jiang Jiutian dodged it in a flash, and swept a leg with a lot of luck, and directly swept the person to the stage.
The details of these contests, looking back now, are just trivial matters. However, it is not without harvest for everyone to talk about what you say, exchange experiences, and talk about what you have seen.
In the name of celebrating Jiang Jiutian's first place, in the name of everyone's good ranking, and in the name of Jiang Jiutian's birthday is approaching, Li Yidong proposed that everyone go to the Fang Market together and buy something suitable to treat themselves. Jiang Jiutian's family and Li Feng haven't been to Fang City yet, so they are naturally very willing to see it.
The market is in the opposite direction of the outer hills where they frequent, and the terrain is flat and only slightly hilly. Of course, not far from Fang City, whether it is back to the direction of the inner mountain or other directions, it is still a continuous mountain. In other words, the city is located in a valley surrounded by mountains, but this valley is really large and rarely flat.
There is no clear demarcation between the city and the surrounding wasteland, but the closer it is, the more sparse and shabby the buildings become. Some simply set up a shed, or even simply set up a stall on the ground.
Although there are often monks from Xiaoqingyunmen coming and going in the Fang Market, the most people in the Fang Market are not monks but ordinary people who have not cultivated. These ordinary people are basically the descendants of monks, and because of their poor qualifications, they can't embark on the road of cultivating immortals, so they beg for a living in the market. Now some of them still have relatives and friends in Xiaoqingyunmen, and some of them have nothing to do with cultivators for a long time, but they all have their own ways of survival.
Ordinary people who beg for a living in Fang City still have an expectation, that is, their children and grandchildren will be lucky enough to have spiritual root qualifications and be able to worship under the door of Xiaoqingyunmen. Besides, even if there is no smoke on the grave, where to live is not to live, isn't it better to be closer to the blessed land of the gods?
In fact, according to Li Yidong, there are indeed quite a few disciples of Xiaoqingyunmen who are from Fang City, after all, it is close and convenient. There are also many disciples of Xiaoqingyunmen, whose qualifications are really limited and have no hope of advancement, so they simply focus on mundane things and run a family business in Fang City.
Jiang Jiutian's family followed Li Yidong all the way, watching people coming and going, and the cries were endless, and an illusion of returning to the mortal world spontaneously arose. After leaving such a secular scene for a long time, I suddenly saw it with a sense of intimacy.
Everyone looks at everything rarely, and from time to time they stop to take a closer look. What Li Yidong knows, Li Yidong will briefly introduce it, and Li Yidong doesn't know either, so he will talk to the seller to understand it.
When he walked to a street, Li Yidong pointed out that there was a place where the shop was opened by someone from our Tianyifeng, and took Jiang Jiutian and them to go in and take a circle. But I just walked around, and I didn't buy anything. Basically, what is sold is the pill miscellaneous yellow charm, if they really need it, they can do it directly in the peak, they don't have to buy it in this shop, and the one that is sold in the shop is not as good as the one specially customized in the peak.
Although they said before they came that they wanted to buy something suitable to treat themselves, they didn't really have to buy anything, they came more to see more and have a long insight. After all, it is not as real as knowing anything as seeing the real thing directly, and there is no place like the market where all kinds of things are displayed, and you can casually watch, inquire and even touch them.
Of course, not all of them can be touched. Jiang Jiutian and they have seen many small stall owners along the way, mysterious and secretive, claiming that the things they sell are from the ruins of so-and-so, extremely precious, it is very likely that so-and-so secret method so-and-so hidden treasures, only allowed to see but not touch, because of so-and-so reasons have to endure the pain of cutting meat and selling, only accept buyers who understand the value of knowledge, and the price is not negotiable.
Such a small stall, when you see the first one, you may feel that the sky will be overjoyed, you have gone lucky, facing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pick up the leak, and the opportunity must not be lost again, you have a strong urge to pour out your spirit stone or other valuable items on your body, and exchange it for something that is likely to be a secret method or a hidden treasure of so-and-so. And if you can resist the urge and move on, it won't be long before you find a second one like this, and then a third, and then a fourth...... Maybe you'll be annoyed or laugh dumbly, or maybe you'll have a sense of superiority that sees through the tricks, and you'll end up calming down and turning a blind eye.
Jiang Jiutian didn't even have a heartbeat at the beginning, seeing such a scene, they only felt that there were many similar things in the world, and it seemed that the people who guarded the blessed land of the gods and the people of the mortal world also had the same heart. Li Yidong fell into something like this a long, long time ago, and the past was unbearable, and he learned to be obedient after learning a lesson. However, Li Yidong is not half grateful to the sinister person who taught him a lesson, the perpetrator is someone else, the victim is himself, and it is himself who is trying to recover.
However, whether it was Jiang Jiutian or Li Yidong, they didn't mean to go to those stalls to make trouble. As small as this kind of stall, as big as this kind of thing, even if they all become true immortals one day, I am afraid that they will not be able to control it and cannot be stopped, and the sinister and even tragic things in the world are not only this star and a half sesame seeds.
And as far as the matter is concerned, those stalls did not take the initiative to provoke them, so why bother to cut off people and wealth in vain. This kind of business or scam, if something happens, is nothing more than a common game of greed between the two parties, because there is fraud first, after the success of the inevitable injustice, then there will be cause and effect, there will be follow-up.
