187. Chapter 185
Lang Shaochong hurriedly said goodbye to the three of them, and went directly to the city with his eyebrows fluttering, saying that he was a friend.
Jiang Qiulong just sneered, with a look of disdain, as if he knew what Lang Shaochong was going to do, and he had high-level control in the Wuguang Sect, so he didn't dare to mess around. No one cares about this Jewel City, and it's not like you can do whatever you want.
Jiang Qiulong planned to visit an elder of the Jiang family in Zhuji City, it was inconvenient to go with Yuwen Zhouyuan, and Yuwen Zhouyuan said goodbye, and discussed that after ten days, he would reunite in this inn and go to Donglin Kingdom.
Ma Yunfei went to the street, saying that he wanted to buy some medicine to heal his wounds.
In the end, Yuwen Zhouyuan was depressed to find that he was the only one left in the inn. He hadn't thought that he would stay in Zhuji City for half a month halfway, so naturally he didn't know what to do for a while.
Yuwen Zhouyuan thought about it for a while, and simply went to the underground market for a walk.
This underground market is definitely not the open market in the city, and all that is bought and sold there is just the junk items of some True Qi Stage disciples.
Jiang Qiulong once mentioned that there was a secret underground market in this Zhuji City, which was specially used for trading between the disciples of the True Yuan Stage of various sects, and buying and selling expensive items on the land that only True Yuan Stage monks used.
This underground market is an industry of the Dongyang Xiuzhen Alliance, and its reputation is extremely high, and it will not reveal the background of the buyer and seller. The Zhenyuan monks of the major immortal cultivation sects of the Dongyang Empire all like to come here to trade.
The underground market trade in Zhuji City is almost the densest place in the entire Dongyang Empire's immortal cultivation realm.
Yuwen Zhouyuan realized that this Zhuji City was not just a city where a large number of True Qi Stage disciples gathered, it was more important than he imagined. At the very least, this is the trading center of the Zhenyuan monks of the major immortal cultivation sects.
However, although there was such a fang market in Zhuji City, Jiang Qiulong left in too much hurry, and he didn't tell him clearly where this fang market was, but said that many monks knew it, and they just needed to find someone to ask for directions.
Yuwen Zhouyuan found a guy from the inn and asked where the underground market was, but he didn't know anything. This guy has only been in Zhuji City for a few years, and he has no idea that there is an underground secret city.
Yuwen Zhouyuan was a little annoyed, changed into an ordinary monk's long uniform without any markings, left the inn, walked onto the streets of Zhuji City, and walked around.
Since he didn't know where the underground fang city was, he could only go to the refining workshop, spirit pavilion and other places in Zhuji City to take a look, and maybe he could find the items he used.
Yuwen Juyuan was walking on the street when his eyes suddenly moved. He saw an old Taoist priest with a cow heart bun, who was pulling a few new True Qi Stage monks on the street to do business, but he was sprayed with saliva by those newcomers and scolded the liar.
The old Taoist priest shouted bad luck.
Yuwen Zhouyuan smiled lightly, thought of something, stepped a little, his body moved quickly like smoke, and he came to the Taoist priest in three or two steps, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist, I will ask you for directions." ”
The Taoist priest saw that there was business coming to the door, so he smiled and said: "I am the best at finding a way, I don't know where you want to go? ”
"How do you get to the underground market in Zhuji City? There are a lot of True Yuan Monks buying and selling in that place. Don't tell me you don't know, it's weird that you don't know anything like that. Yuwen Juyuan said with a smile.
"Underground Fang City?" The Taoist priest was very surprised when he heard this, thought for a while, and made a bitter face: "Poor Dao doesn't know, but Poor Dao knows that there is a place where there are often Zhenyuan monks of various factions coming and going. But the poor Dao cultivation is low, and he has never entered it. ”
"yes, where is that place?" asked Yuwen Juyuan.
"That place needs a low-grade spirit stone!" the Taoist priest rolled his eyes, and the lion said with a big mouth.
Yuwen Zhouyuan took out a low-grade spirit stone, and then handed the spirit stone to him.
The Taoist priest took the spirit stone, was overjoyed, and immediately smiled: "It's in the Zhuji Pavilion, the center of Zhuji City!"
Yuwen Zhou Yuan was puzzled: "Zhuji Pavilion, isn't it the important place for the Dongyang Xiuzhen Alliance to be in this city, and outsiders are forbidden to enter and leave." Where did it become an underground market?"
The Taoist priest refused to say anything, just smiled and squinted, rubbed his hand and said, "Daoist friend has a question, accept a spirit stone." ”
Yuwen Zhouyuan frowned after hearing this, took out another low-grade spirit stone, and threw it over.
The Taoist priest caught the spirit stone and said with a smile: "Poor Dao doesn't dare to deceive, why is the underground market located, I don't know." However, the poor road has been in Zhuji City for decades, and I have never been to any place in this Zhuji City, but this Zhuji Pavilion is guarded by Zhenyuan monks, and I can't enter it at all. And only True Yuan monks can enter here. If there is an underground market in Zhuji City, it must be Zhuji Pavilion. ”
Glancing at Yuwen Zhouyuan, the Taoist priest swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued: "The main entrance of this Zhuji Pavilion is rarely opened, and those True Yuan monks all enter through the side door of Zhuji Pavilion. Since the Taoist friends are happy, the poor road comes with a little secret. This Jewel City has two powerful defensive formations, one of which is built on the four walls of the city. The other, more powerful Great Array, was built in this Zhuji Pavilion. Even if the city is breached and the entire Zhuji City is destroyed, as long as the Zhuji Pavilion is safe, the Zhuji City can be rebuilt. It is not easy to break these two formations of defense. Back then, Jewel City had been destroyed several times......"
Yuwen Zhouyuan didn't have the time to listen to the history and legends of Zhuji City by this Taoist priest, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to finish talking about it for three years, so he interrupted his words and said, "Take me to the side gate of Zhuji Pavilion!" ”
When the Taoist priest heard Yuwen Zhouyuan make this request, he was immediately dumbfounded: "Uh, you want to go in, are you always a Zhenyuan monk?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan stared at him coldly, released coercion, and said coldly: "Isn't it like it?"
The Taoist priest was not shocked, and suddenly hit a spirit, sobered up, quickly nodded, and led the way in front. In his heart, he secretly exclaimed, Mom, I'm really old, I'm clumsy, I accidentally knocked on the Zhenyuan monk, but fortunately, this young man spoke politely, and he didn't have the same knowledge as himself.
Zhuji Pavilion is a huge bluestone hall in the center of the city, covering a total of several steps and hundreds of steps, there are golden armor guards of the Dongyang Xiuzhen Alliance, usually it is very light here, and almost no one comes. Around the Zhuji Pavilion, there are some luxury restaurants and inns.
After a while, the Taoist priest took Yuwen Zhouyuan to the side of the Zhuji Pavilion, pointed to a bland small door in the side hall, and smiled humbly: "This Taoist master, this is here." There are often True Yuan monks coming and going, but the small ones have never entered, and I don't know if this is the underground market you are always looking for. The little one will go first!"
Yuwen Zhouyuan didn't rush towards the small gate, this is the territory of the Dongyang Xiuzhen Alliance, if you trespass on the forbidden land that you shouldn't go, you will be unlucky.
He looked around the Jewel Pavilion, came to the nearest restaurant with a wide view, occupied a table at the window, and watched to see if there were any monks entering and exiting through the small door.
After waiting for three hours, it was getting late. At this time, some monks with hats and face armor began to come to the small door of the side hall of the Zhuji Pavilion, knocked on the door, and the dark door opened, and these monks quickly entered.
Yuwen Zhouyuan carefully identified it in the restaurant, and in just such a short time, there were about thirty or forty people entering, almost all of them were monks from the True Yuan Period, and they all covered their faces, and they couldn't see any identity on their clothes, which made him secretly surprised.
It seems that there are quite a few True Yuan monks in this Zhuji City.
This should be what Jiang Qiulong said, the underground market of Zhuji City, which is dedicated to trading between Zhenyuan monks.
After Yuwen Zhouyuan knew this, he sat for a while before getting up and leaving the restaurant.
When Yuwen Juyuan came to the small gate. He had already put on a mask of the skin of a spirit animal bought from a street stall, as well as a set of the most ordinary ground clothes. Don't be afraid of being recognized.
Knocked three times on the small door.
The door creaked open, revealing a black wall of ground light, blocking all ground light.
Yuwen Juyuan hesitated for a moment and floated in.
Passing through a thin wall of light, the eyes suddenly opened up.
Yuwen Zhouyuan looked at it, and inside was a simple hut with fluorite lamps. A table counts chairs.
The monks who had entered this hut before were nowhere to be found.
Inside the house, there was a ninth-layer True Qi Period, wearing the clothes of the Dongyang Cultivation Alliance, and the big man was crossing Erlang's legs, and when he saw Yuwen Zhouyuan coming in, his eyes flashed golden, and he found out that Yuwen Zhouyuan was cultivating, and immediately smiled: "The Fang Market Trade Fair will start in half an hour, this senior, I don't know if you are here for the first time." If you're a first-time visitor, let me explain the rules here. Or maybe you should go straight to Fang City?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan said: "It's the first time I'm here, please tell me what rules there are here." ”
Dahan said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out that the predecessors are here for the first time, and we provide booth trading, pending order trading, bidding auctions, acquisitions, equivalent exchanges, exchanging spirit stones, and task entrustment in various different trading methods." Whatever you want to do or sell, you can do it here. ”
Yuwen Zhouyuan thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to Fang City first." ”
"Okay. The big man didn't say anything more, he shook the bell on the table a few times, and a stone door slowly opened on the wall of the hut.
Yuwen Juyuan walked in slowly.
Immediately, he felt a few divine senses that were at least True Yuan Stage cultivation swept over him, and then moved away.
Yuwen Zhouyuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't mind too much, in this kind of place, it is normal to have guards above the True Yuan Period.
This is a hall, or it is the side hall of the Zhuji Pavilion, the decoration is extremely luxurious, the glass chandelier, the snow-white demon beast skin blanket, the shining jade pillar, all of which do not reveal the wealth of the hall.
The most important thing is that it is bustling and extremely lively, with more than 100 True Yuan monks wearing masks, and dozens of various counter stalls in the hall, all of which are operated by True Yuan monks.
There were also quite a few True Yuan monks who had just come in, and they were bargaining in front of the counter.
Looking at the past, it turned out that all of them were True Yuan monks, none of them were in the True Qi Period, and there were even a few True Yuan high-level Great Perfection monks, who were not far from real people.
The Hou Wei displayed by Yuwen Zhouyuan at this time was only the first layer of the True Yuan Period, and it belonged to the bottom of the cultivation, so it did not attract the attention of others.
