Although the baby-faced person kindly reminded her at first and acted so harmlessly, Gu Qingxi, who had experienced the apocalypse, knew very well that human nature is sinister. Sometimes the most harmless things on the surface are the most deadly.
In the last days when food was scarce, some adults took their children to set traps. Children of several years old cry and beg for help from people passing by. The next moment, they lead people into a trap without changing their expressions. They watch their parents kill people like pigs, snatch supplies, and then eat people with their parents' expressions as normal. .
Therefore, on the surface, Gu Qingxi was smiling and chatting with this casual cultivator named Xia Tian, but in her heart she did not trust this cultivator at all. Let’s get in touch first and observe later.
Xia Tian is a very talkative and familiar monk. He talked endlessly as soon as he chatted with Gu Qingxi. To be precise, he was talking most of the time and Gu Qingxi was listening.
However, because of this, Gu Qingxi learned a lot of information that she didn't know before.
"Miss Gu, let me tell you, there are many swindlers in Haiyan City, who specialize in deceiving monks who have just arrived and have low cultivation levels. However, they will also choose others to deceive. They dare not deceive those who are obviously disciples of major sects. They are afraid that the seniors and seniors behind the scenes will come and beat them.
One of the most common deceptions is to deceive monks with ordinary pearls, saying that they are condensed from the tears of the sharks and that they are worth a lot of money. Especially I will deceive you, a novice female cultivator who loves beauty.
Don't believe this. If you want to buy pearls, go to the Wanbao Building opened by the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce. The Tianxia Chamber of Commerce has a cooperation with the Shark Emperor. The Wanbao Tower in Haiyan City is jointly opened by the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce and the Shark Emperor. The first-hand goods are absolutely genuine.
The tears of a shark can indeed condense into beads, but not all sharks can condense their tears into beads.
Because the beads condensed by the sharks' tears are their natural mana, which will consume their spiritual power and essence. The sharks would not easily condense beads with tears, it would be a loss to them.
Even a mermaid without talent can't condense his tears into beads. This thing is rare and precious. How can it be sold casually on the street? "
Gu Qingxi listened with great interest. Regardless of whether Xia Tian was a good person or whether he had any intentions towards her, what he said now was indeed interesting.
If this person really had an idea for her, she wouldn't be afraid. If she really does it, she will teach this person what it means to make a flower so red.
But now it’s quite interesting to know some things from this person.
So Gu Qingxi didn't mind being a little more generous and took out the spirit fruit for Xia Tian to eat.
"This one is moist and juicy, and the taste is sweet and not greasy. Try it." Gu Qingxi took out a spiritual fruit and handed it to Xia Tian.
"Thank you." Xia Tian took it with a smile and took a bite. As expected, the mouth was full of sweetness and juicy to quench his thirst.
Then Gu Qingxi opened her eyes wide and continued to wait for Xia Tian to speak.
Xia Tian saw that Gu Qingxi was so supportive, so he continued to talk:
"Then there is the shark's silk. The clothes made of the shark's silk are very smooth and do not absorb water. It is a special kind of fabric. These things are also divided into quality and grades.
If you want to buy cassocks made by Yu Renxiao, it is safer to go to Wanbao Tower. The quality of what is sold to you on the roadside is not guaranteed. Although it is cheaper than Wanbaolou, you have to bet on luck. If you are unlucky and buy bad quality shark's rice, there is nothing you can do.
Most of the sharks living in Haiyan City are black-tailed, and most of these sharks are unable to practice. But these ordinary sharks are also much stronger than ordinary humans, and their life span is more than ten times that of ordinary humans.
If someone tries to sell you a round blue or green gemstone that glows at night, don't buy it.
Those are the eyes of the shark. After the death of some sharks, their eyes were dug out and simply processed to make such gems. It’s hard to say how some of the eyeballs came about.
The Merman Kingdom strictly prohibits the buying and selling of shark eyes. If you don't want to cause trouble, don't buy such things. "
Gu Qingxi nodded, indicating that he had written it down.
"The food in the Sharman Country is very good and contains enough spiritual energy. You can try it.
Then if you want to make money, you can also receive tasks to help the sharks kill sea beasts.
Every ten years there will be a wave of sea beasts in Haiyan City, and at that time all the sharks in the city will join the war. Because every wave of sea beasts brings considerable losses to Haiyan City, the Mermaid Emperor has issued a bounty mission. Anyone who kills the sea beasts can go to the mission hall to receive the bounty.
The amount of reward will be determined based on the level of harm of the sea beast.
With your level of cultivation, you can hunt some low-level sea beasts in the sea not far away. Don't go to the deep sea. If you do, you won't know who is hunting whom. "
Gu Qingxi nodded again and thanked him.
He took out the snacks exchanged with Xu Baozhu and gave a few bags to Xia Tian.
Xia Tian took it down with a smile, and then slowly started eating. While eating, he praised: "These taste good, and they retain the original spiritual power of the food. Although it is not much, it is definitely there."
"My friend gave it to me." Gu Qingxi said with a smile.
Xia Tian also seemed to be tired. After eating, he closed his eyes and meditated.
The speed of the spirit boat was not slow. The huge hull flew quickly and steadily. It set off in the morning and arrived at Haiyan City in the evening.
After getting off the spirit boat, Xia Xia waved goodbye to Gu Qingxi: "Goodbye, Miss Gu. Goodbye if we are destined. If you are looking for a place to stay, it is safer to go to the inn opened by the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce. It is easy to recognize. There is a huge gold ingot. It’s opened by his family.”
"Thank you." Gu Qingxi smiled and waved goodbye to Xia Tian.
Gu Qingxi started walking around Haiyan City. There is no curfew in Haiyan City like in human cities. It is evening now, but the "lights" in the city are all on, illuminating the entire Haiyan City like daylight.
Gu Qingxi carefully observed the "lights" in the city. The strings of lights on the wall are not ordinary lanterns, but pieces of white ore that emit crystal light. The ores were polished into round shapes and strung together.
These ore balls hang under the eaves of every house. There are many street lamps made of thin stone pillars on the roadside, and many such shiny ores are hung on them, so the whole city is illuminated clearly.
There are still many pedestrians on the street at the moment. Humans and sharks are easy to distinguish. Because the ears are different. Humans have round, flesh-colored ears, while mermaids have long, gill-like ears.
Gu Qingxi walked on the street and looked around. Sure enough, the lower part of this city is built in the water.
Many streets are connected by waterways. If you walk along the streets on both sides of the waterways and look underwater, you can clearly see the streets below. It is exactly the same as the street above, as if it is a projection of the street above, but it is real.
There are many sharks swimming around in the water streets below.
