After watching several people enter the city, Xu Chunniang walked towards Shacheng unhurriedly.
There are still some injuries on her body. Although they are not serious, they need to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Some of the vines were seriously injured and needed to recuperate.
The situation is almost understood, so there is no rush for the rest.
As a new arrival, Xu Chunniang planned to enter the city first, buy some necessary things, and then find a place to camp outside the city to rest.
Although she can afford the annual entrance fee of 360,000 magic crystals, she has no intention of spending the magic crystals here.
At the city gate, two monks guarding the city stopped her, "Please show me the order to enter the city."
Naturally, Xu Chunniang didn't have the order to enter the city. She thought about it, took out ten middle-grade magic crystals, and paid the day's fee.
The monk guarding the city accepted the magic crystal and handed her a round earth-brown token.
"This is an entry order. With this token, you can stay in the city for one day. If you cannot renew the fee after one day, you must return this order and leave Shacheng."
Xu Chunniang took the token and it was very heavy. Heavy stones were probably added to the refining of the token.
"If I want to camp outside the city, how many magic crystals will I have to pay?"
The guard was not surprised at all by her question. In fact, there were not many monks who could afford to live in Sand City.
In addition to people from the Chamber of Commerce, there are mostly merchants and monks who have properties in the city.
When most of the monks came to Shacheng, they would choose to station outside the city. They would not enter the city at all if they had nothing to do.
“If you camp thirty feet away, you will have to pay six thousand magic crystals per month; if you camp one hundred feet away, you will have to pay three thousand magic crystals per month.
If the distance between the camping location and the sand city exceeds 300 feet, no fees will be charged. "
From the mouth of the guard, Xu Chunniang learned that the effect of the city wall on absorbing sand and dust is limited. The closer to the city wall, the better the effect and the more expensive the charge.
Once the distance exceeds three hundred feet, the effect is minimal and almost negligible.
In addition to the yellow sand flying all over the sky and the turbulent dust storms that may appear at any time, the ubiquitous sand beasts in the Prison Sand Mountain are also a major threat.
Camping outside the city, it's okay when nothing happens, but once encountering dust storms and tides of sand beasts, it will be in danger.
At this time, the monks stationed outside the city would often rush to escape danger and temporarily enter the city.
Therefore, the closer the camping location is to Shacheng, the safer it will be.
Xu Chunniang thanked the guards and entered Shacheng.
At first sight, there are earth-brown houses that are the same color as the city walls. The streets are sparsely populated and few people move around.
In the open shops on both sides, the clerks were sitting on the doorsteps, yawning out of boredom.
When they saw Xu Chunniang, their eyes lit up, they stood up and enthusiastically solicited business.
"Do you need anything, sir? We have all kinds of tanned sand animal skins in our store. Whether they are used to make leather armor or make talismans, they are all excellent. Do you want to take a look?"
"Our store has been supplying dust-proof robes and dust-proof tents for a long time. The robes and tents come with their own formations and are not expensive. Do you want to know more about them?"
"Although sand animal skins and dust-proof robes are good, they cannot save lives in critical moments. It is always a good idea to prepare a few life-saving elixirs when traveling outside. The elixirs in our Zhendan Pavilion are among the best in Shacheng!"
Xu Chunniang glanced at these shops, and finally looked at the cassock held high in one hand.
"How can I sell this robe?"
The yellow sand in Prisoner's Sand Mountain is different from ordinary sand. The sand here is very hard, and it also contains the power of subtle and broken laws.
If there is no demonic energy to protect the body and block these yellow sands, they will not only easily tear the clothes, but once poured into the mouth and nose, they will leave many small scars in the body.
The monk surnamed Wei who had just led her the way and a few others were wearing such robes.
It's just that the methods on them look gray, very worn, and have a lot of patches.
The guy selling cassocks perked up and spoke in a slightly higher tone.
"Fellow Taoist, you have a good eye. This robe is the best-selling style in our store. It can be worn by both male and female cultivators. It has an excellent effect in resisting yellow sand.
More importantly, the price is not expensive, only sixty-eight thousand magic crystals! "
Just a dust-proof cassock, the price is as high as nearly 70,000 yuan. No wonder the monks surnamed Wei are still reluctant to replace the cassocks they wear.
"Don't be too expensive, sir. Such a robe can be worn for at least ten years. On average, it costs less than 7,000 magic crystals per year. After calculating the daily cost, it is less than 20 magic crystals!"
Seeing that she was silent, the waiter said in a persuasive manner, "Fellow Taoist does not have dharma robes to protect you. Once you leave the city, you must protect your body with demonic energy to resist the invasion of yellow sand.
If this continues for a day and night, the amount of demonic energy consumed is countless times more than twenty magic crystals! And when fighting, there is no need to be distracted by this. "
Xu Chunniang curled her lips and said, "This is the first time I've heard of your calculation. Get me a cassock."
She really planned to buy a dust-proof robe so that she would not have to devote her mind and demonic energy to resist the yellow sand at all times after leaving the city.
On the way back to the city, the monk surnamed Wei once told her that the climate in Qiaosha Mountain was unpredictable, but every twenty or thirty years, there would be a short period of stability.
Caravans often take advantage of the stable period and rush back to the north from Shacheng with a large amount of goods.
The last stable period was less than ten years ago.
I'm afraid she will have to spend the next ten or twenty years in this imprisoned sand city.
"okay!"
The clerk neatly took out a brand new cassock, handed it to Xu Chunniang with both hands, grinned at the same time, and asked questions skillfully.
"A dustproof tent made of the same material. Do you want to bring one? The tent is not only dustproof, but also comes with anti-peep array and space array. Whether you are camping outside the city or using it outside, They are all very convenient and only cost 126,600 magic crystals."
After buying the cassocks, it is natural to buy the tents as well.
After all, the monks who came to Qi Shashan to seek a living all lived outside the city. If she lived in the city, wouldn't she openly tell other monks outside the city that she was full of magic crystals?
"Okay, get me one."
The waiter smiled happily. After accepting the magic crystal, he handed the tent to Xu Chunniang neatly and made a solemn promise at the same time.
"The customer is really happy. If there is any problem with the items purchased in our store, they can be repaired at any time within ten years!"
Xu Chunniang took over the tent and put the robe on her body.
The originally roomy cassock changed immediately the moment it was put on, and finally fit her body perfectly as if it had been tailor-made.
What's more important is that this robe is as thin as a cicada's wings. When you wear it, you can't feel its weight at all.
Xu Chunniang was satisfied that the magic crystal was not in vain.
After purchasing the cassocks and tent, she went to other stores and purchased the topographical map of Qiaosha Mountain and other necessary items.
As for the elixir, the healing effect was not as good as the rules she understood, so there was no need to buy it.
