At the same time, the monk glanced at Ye Nan and the young man intentionally or unintentionally, but did not make any expression, and quickly turned his attention to the elixir shop clerk again.
Ever since he saw the middle-aged man take a piece of source from his hand, the elixir store clerk's expression turned a little ugly and he felt like he had been betrayed.
But he wasn't too worried. After all, there was an extremely powerful girl traveling with him, so he walked forward at a fast pace.
"You want to be a source?"
What they didn't expect was that the monk was very polite and did not act condescending because he was a monk and the other person was an ordinary person without magic power.
The guys from the elixir shop nodded, that was why they came to the Northern Territory.
"Good body and bones."
Two rays of golden light shot out of the monk's eyes, scanning the meridians, bones, and flesh of the elixir shop clerk in sequence. He looked very satisfied.
Ye Nan's heart moved. People in the elixir trade have been dealing with various elixirs all year round, and they often eat some elixirs. Their physiques are between mortals and immortals, and they are indeed much stronger than ordinary people.
Next, the monk took out a palm-sized stone platform, which was crystal clear and glowing with colorful divine light, and asked the elixir shop's clerk to cover it with his hands.
The next second, a ray of light bloomed, and then turned into a thin line glowing with colorful clouds. It followed the elixir shop clerk's arm all the way to the lower abdomen and sank into it.
After a moment, this strange stone platform stopped glowing and dimmed.
"Yes, he is indeed an ordinary person with no fluctuations in cultivation."
The monk nodded, then took out a fist-sized gold ingot, shook it in front of the elixir shop clerk, and threw it directly to him.
The moment the monk took out the gold ingot, the eyes of several elixir shop clerks were stunned. With all their savings in the past few years, such a gold ingot might not be worth much.
"This is half of the salary for one year in the mine, and the other half will be paid to you after one year."
As he spoke, he summoned an apprentice-looking monk from the stone workshop, who must have just opened the Sea of Bitterness, and motioned him to lead the elixir dealer to a certain place.
The elixir shop clerk at the beginning was still hesitant and wanted to refuse. But when he truly felt the heavy weight of this gold ingot, he secretly swallowed and planned to take a closer look.
He glanced at Ye Nan and the boy and saw that they had no intention of leaving yet, so he felt relieved.
Ye Nan knew what the elixir shop man meant, but she wanted to take this opportunity to learn more about the Northern Territory.
"Little brother, why is this Northern Territory so barren?"
Before the apprentice-looking monk could speak, the young man couldn't help but ask.
Ever since he first arrived in the Northern Territory, there has been a suspicious look on his face, as if he was quite puzzled.
The monk glanced at him. He was not particularly surprised. Instead, he explained very skillfully. It seemed that he had said it many times.
"It seems that this little brother is coming to the Northern Territory for the first time. Everyone knows the origin of the Northern Territory. But success also comes from the source, and failure also comes from the source. The formation of this strange substance requires a lot of heaven and earth essence, and naturally it will This world has been sucked dry."
The young man's eyes flickered, but he nodded and said nothing more.
"I asked you, Master Immortal, why don't you use magic to directly bring up the source from the ground? Instead, we ordinary people need to go down to the mines to find it?"
Seeing that the monk looked easy to talk to, the man from the elixir store took the opportunity to ask, which was closely related to his future career.
"The source is a very strange substance. It will affect the surrounding soil. Over time, it will form a layer of stone skin, wrapping the source block, which can isolate the monks from exploration. And you have seen several monks staying in the mines all day long. Yes, wasted years, it can be said that the gain outweighs the loss."
"Stones contain precious treasures, which are like light and dust."
When Ye Nan heard this, her heart moved and she spoke softly, gaining a further understanding of these eight words.
The monk had long glanced at Ye Nan from time to time. When he heard her speak, he was so shocked that he couldn't help but compliment her.
"I saw the fairy's appearance coming out of the dust, so I guess she must have an extraordinary background and be well-informed."
"What the fairy said is true. During the formation process, the source will occasionally wrap up some things, including some heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Once any treasure is found in the stone, the entire Northern Territory will be shaken. Even the Ancient Clan will be shocked. People will be sent here to purchase them at high prices."
Ye Nan ignored his flattery, her beautiful eyes were calm, and she silently digested the information that this person had just provided.
But I saw this monk got excited about talking and came forward, looking mysterious.
"I think the fairy didn't know something when she first arrived in the Northern Territory. The second generation Yuan Tianshi is currently in the Holy City. It is said that in a few days there will be a stone gambling duel with a young master of the ancient royal family, which has attracted many young talents. Jun went to take a look, and even a goddess from the Xiaoyao family appeared in the holy city."
Ye Nan's eyes turned bright when she heard this. She had already heard that Master Yuan Tian was the master of Yuan Shu. If she could ask Master Yuan Tian to take a look at the Immortal Treasure Picture, she might be able to get more clues.
Although the monk couldn't see Ye Nan's face clearly, he was fascinated by her smart eyes. When he saw a sparkle in those eyes, he knew that what he said was on point, and he felt secretly happy in his heart.
"The Holy City will never fall. It hangs high in the sky, majestic and majestic. It is an important symbol of the Northern Territory and an important foundation of the human race in the Northern Territory. It will last forever."
He praised the Holy City without hesitation, with a look of longing on his face.
"The Holy City...it still exists after so many years."
The young man muttered in a low and inaudible voice. He was also digesting the information from this world, and then suddenly thought of something and looked at the monk.
"Is the Taichu ancient mine still there?"
He suddenly asked such a question, but saw the monk's expression change, he looked around, and hurriedly stopped the young man, as if he had heard something extraordinary.
"Shhh... I just arrived in the Northern Territory, and there are many taboos that I don't understand very well. This is too..."
The monk swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but he didn't spit out the words "Taichu Ancient Mine". He held it back, and then lowered his tone.
"This ancient mine is the number one taboo in the Northern Territory, don't even mention it! It will kill people, and even the Taikoo clan keeps it a secret. There is a restricted area of 500,000 miles around the ancient mine. If you enter by mistake, you will die like a scumbag." There’s not much left.”
His expression was terrifying, and his words were full of warning.
When the elixir shop clerk heard this, he shivered.
"I said Master Immortal, our mine shouldn't be near that... that ancient mine."
"Don't worry, our Four Elephants Holy Land is not that desperate."
The monk clapped his chest and vowed.
The young man touched his chin and said nothing more.
