, wonderful and free of pop-ups! As soon as he walked into the medicinal shop, Tang Zhen smelled a very special smell.
Tang Zhen had smelled this smell before, inside a temple. I heard people say that this fragrance comes from a precious spice, which is rarely produced. Sometimes a piece of the best spice can even be exchanged for a villa!
Taking a deep breath, Tang Zhen felt it. The spice tasted really good.
Tang Zhen turned his head following the smell and saw a small incense burner placed on a simple stone table. The smell was escaping from the incense burner.
Seeing Tang Zhen's eyes fall on the incense burner, a delicate girl wearing light green leather armor came over and said to Tang Zhen with a smile: "This is just shipped to our store from Xiangdu Loucheng thousands of miles away." The spices have a sweet and pure taste, which can refresh the mind. If used for a long time, it will also be very helpful for cultivation!"
Compared with the wanderers outside, there is no trace of weathered sorrow on the girl's face, and her clothes are very clean and decent.
After Tang Zhen glanced at the girl, he nodded gently and asked about the price.
Perhaps because of the high output in the other world, the price of this spice was not very expensive. Tang Zhen took out the brain beads and bought a pack without hesitation.
After putting away the spices, Tang Zhen looked at other products in the medicinal shop.
After looking around, Tang Zhen discovered that there were many types of medicinal materials here, but he almost didn't recognize them, which frustrated his original plan to buy a few century-old ginseng.
Tang Zhen also discovered that many medicinal materials in the medicine shop were collected from monsters.
Bone marrow, gallbladder, blood meal, the raw materials of these medicines all come from monsters in the wilderness.
In the counter with glass-like objects inlaid on the surface, there were various finished medicines. After asking about their efficacy, Tang Zhen bought a few bottles at random, ready to take them back for experiments.
After walking out of the medicine store, Tang Zhen was about to find an opportunity to sneak into the building, but he accidentally discovered that dozens of people were driving a group of carriages towards the entrance of an underground parking lot.
Tang Zhen's heart moved, he found a hidden location and turned on the quantum invisibility light curtain, then walked over calmly.
The underground entrance was very spacious, and there were several Black Rock City monks guarding the entrance. Tang Zhen tried his best to move quietly and walked over quietly.
After Tang Zhen entered, a Black Rock City monk in charge of the guard looked at the underground passage with some confusion. He just seemed to hear a slight abnormal sound coming from the passage.
After confirming that there was no abnormality in the passage, the monk turned his head and ignored it.
After Tang Zhen walked along the underground passage for nearly a hundred meters, he found that he was in a huge underground space. Judging from its size, it seemed to be similar to a square on the ground.
Perhaps this underground space is built under the square.
He carefully observed the surrounding walls of this underground space and found that they were extremely solid. It was indeed a city built by the power of heaven and earth.
This underground space was artificially divided into countless small areas, which were piled with stones and filled with soil.
A layer of viscous liquid with a faint odor was poured on the surface of the soil. Tang Zhen took a look and found that every small area was like this.
Tang Zhen was quite curious when he saw this, and secretly guessed what would be under the soil?
Taking out an engineering shovel from the space, Tang Zhen walked to a dark corner and dug in with the engineering shovel. After only digging two shovels, he felt the engineer shovel hit something.
As he pushed the engineer shovel upwards, Tang Zhen saw a white living organism the size of a human head dug out by the engineer shovel.
Tang Zhen carefully stepped forward to observe, only to find that this thing turned out to be an extra-large potato!
Even Tang Zhen couldn't tell whether this thing was a potato, but judging from its appearance, it did look like a potato.
But Tang Zhen had never heard of such a large potato.
Tang Zhen dug a few more shovels and found that there were densely packed things like this under the soil.
Tang Zhen estimated that this thing was the main food for the residents of Loucheng. Looking at the size of the basement and the size of the potatoes, God knows how many tons of potatoes will be produced in one harvest!
If this kind of potatoes can be harvested continuously, the residents of Loucheng will not have to worry about the source of food.
Tang Zhen once wondered before, if the residents of Loucheng do not cultivate land and sow food, then what do they eat every day?
Now he finally knows that love means eating these giant potatoes!
He dug out two potatoes and put them in the storage space. He wanted to take them back and try to plant them. If successful, it would definitely fill the stomachs of many people.
However, Tang Zhen guessed that the chance of success in this matter was probably very small. If this kind of potato was so easy to cultivate, how could there be so many hungry wanderers in the wilderness?
At this time, the entire underground space was empty, and those people and carriages could not disappear for no reason, so Tang Zhen guessed that there were other spaces here.
After searching carefully for a while, Tang Zhen found that in a dark corner, there was another passage sloping downward.
"Is there another layer of space under this underground square?"
Tang Zhen thought as he walked into the passage.
A few minutes later, another underground space of the same area appeared in front of him. Like the square above, there were also huge potatoes planted here.
It's just that in this space, there are only a few scattered residents pouring the sticky fertilizer on the soil, and the carriage is still missing.
After Tang Zhen observed for a while, he found another entrance extending underground.
Tang Zhen walked in without hesitation. Tang Zhen wanted to see how many levels of underground space this Black Rock City had?
After walking out of the passage this time, Tang Zhen did not see the spectacular potato planting scene, but saw acres and acres of "mushrooms"!
Well, Tang Zhen no longer knew how to describe the scene he saw, but these things in front of him were more than two meters high, more than fifty centimeters in diameter, and the umbrellas were as big as roofs. They were indeed exactly the same as mushrooms!
These giant mushrooms are clustered next to each other. Except for a three-meter-wide road, these giant mushrooms are everywhere.
Among these mushrooms, residents were cutting them down and cutting them into small pieces, putting them into large baskets.
It seems that this kind of mushroom is also one of the foods of Loucheng residents. It can just change the monotonous taste of potatoes, or make a pot of potato and mushroom soup. It must taste good!
Tang Zhen thought about it and felt a little hungry.
After shaking his head and throwing this thought out of his mind, Tang Zhen also dug out a piece of mushroom meat and put it into the storage space.
After passing through the huge mushroom jungle, another underground passage appeared.
Tang Zhen was no longer surprised, but walked on again.
Compared with the upper floors, as soon as Tang Zhen walked into the passage on this floor, he smelled a fishy smell, which was very similar to the smell of fertilizer poured on big potatoes.
At the same time, a burst of conversation and the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground came. It was the carriage team that Tang Zhen had been chasing before.
Tang Zhen walked out of the passage and observed carefully, and soon he was somewhat surprised to find that there were also many pool-like isolation areas built in the underground square on this floor.
And in these isolated pools, a huge white flesh insect that is two meters long is slowly crawling.
They were soaked in the kind of liquid that fertilizes big potatoes, and they devoured the feed scooped out by the residents of Loucheng from the buckets of carriages one after another.
Tang Zhen made a rough estimate and found that the number of meat worms raised in this underground square must be at least several thousand!
Could it be that these fleshy white insects are the source of meat for the residents of Loucheng?
