The rising sun shines through layers of white clouds into this dazzling golden desert.
The wind and sand carry the heat and freshness, blowing over this city that has stood for thousands of years.
Frost Flower City, which experienced the earthquake, suffered almost no damage due to the maintenance of countless body refiners and monks. However, during the initial earthquake, some dilapidated houses collapsed.
And these dilapidated houses have long been uninhabited.
Therefore, despite the earthquake, Frost Flower City, on the second day, when the sun shone all over the earth, still opened a new beginning with the morning sun knocking on the door.
Lingchu met with Liang Shu, and then left the inn in the dry but fresh light of the morning.
The inn is adjacent to the main street of Shuanghua City. As soon as you leave the inn, you will see a bustling street.
Everything in Shuanghua City is still in order, and all the residents have smiles on their faces without the slightest hint of fear.
These are the people of Beihuang.
People who grew up in the Northern Wasteland have been fighting endless wars and harsh environments throughout their lives from birth to death, and have never given up.
This is a barren land, but also a passionate soil.
Therefore, Beihuang is the world for body-refining monks.
This is not surprising.
For the residents of Frost Flower City, it was just an earthquake.
Wandering on the street, Lingchu was not in a hurry to go to the underground market right away, but walked very casually, stopping at a stall from time to time and curiously looking at the various items on the stall.
Frost Flower City is the junction of the Shadow Clan and the Jade Bone Clan, and the Shadow Clan and the Jade Bone Clan are both large tribes in the Northern Wilderness. The items here have very strong Northern Wilderness characteristics.
The Northern Wilderness values the strong and martial arts, and adult men regard hunting monsters as a rite of passage.
In the Northern Wilderness, the blood of monsters can be used to bathe and strengthen the body.
The meat of monsters can be eaten to strengthen the body.
The bones of monsters can be used to make weapons, or they can be used to make bone sculptures.
Lingchu walked all the way and saw several stalls. There were all kinds of bone carvings on them. They were carved from smooth and delicate animal bones. They had no great use. The only use was for decoration.
Decorating bone carvings in the house is a characteristic of Beihuang.
As for the men in the Northern Wilderness, nine out of ten are good at bone carving, because they will take a bone from the monster they hunt, grind it into a ball, or carve it into a fang, or something else. Hang it around your neck, hang it around your waist, and hang it in the house to show your strength.
Of course, the vast majority of people buy bone sculptures purely to make their houses look more Northern Wilderness.
Lingchu visited several stalls and finally bought several bone sculptures. She planned to consider this as a unique gift in the Northern Wilderness. When she returns to the Eastern Continent, she would give one to her elders and friends.
As he walked, Lingchu seemed to be on a purposeless journey, but there were fewer and fewer people around him.
This is also a street. It is separated from the main street of Shuanghua City by only a slender alley. In the middle, there is a semicircular arch. It looks very inconspicuous but also very conspicuous.
Above the arch, two big characters of Beihuang are written brightly, "Dark Market!"
Yes, the so-called underground dark market in Beihuang is completely different from the underground black market in the Eastern Continent. In Beihuang, the underground dark market is very upright.
Just next to the main street, the words "Dark Market" are written thoughtfully, as if they are afraid that others will not find the Dark Market.
According to Liang Shu's explanation to Lingchu, although the underground dark market is called an underground dark market, in fact, the underground dark market in every place is secretly supported by the city lord's palace in the city where it is located.
Where there is light, there will be shadow.
Since the existence of the underground dark market cannot be eliminated, it is better to keep the underground dark market firmly in one's hands.
Simple and direct.
On the surface, the underground market has a backend, and behind the scenes, it also has the support of the city lord's palace. Therefore, the underground market is almost a very unique existence in the city.
However, this also leads to the need to pay more attention to identity in the underground dark market.
If you really want to sell or acquire something terrible, you will have to face not only the power of the dark market, but also the power of the officialdom.
Therefore, Lingchu passed by the dark market but did not go in immediately.
Instead, he disappeared into the crowd and then disappeared into a secluded alley.
Here is another dark market entrance that Liang Shu asked Alan to tell Lingchu.
Commonly known as, wicket.
People who don't want to reveal their identity, people who are uncontrolled in the dark market, under the control of the city lord's palace, have opened up this little-known road.
At this time, Lingchu, who entered the dark market, was already wearing a black robe and a mask.
Under the mask, Lingchu also wears a thousand faces, a different face. Even if someone sees through the formation on the mask, the face they see is fake.
After so many years, Lingchu, who once again turned into a charming woman, suddenly felt nostalgic.
I think back then, when she was in Ten Thousand Tombs Mountain, she had just used Thousand Faces, but in the end, all three of her looks were used, and she was chased by a Golden Core monk and even destroyed his inn.
It's really a sin.
However, now in the Northern Wilderness, the three looks can be used as you like, because many people in the Northern Wilderness have seen Lingchu’s true face, but no one has seen the three faces in the Thousand Faces. A look.
"this."
A slightly hoarse and deep voice came from under Lingchu's mask. The hand hidden under the wide sleeves pointed at a ring-shaped magical instrument on a stall.
The vendor sitting behind the booth understood immediately.
The expression on the face, which was also covered by a black robe, could not be seen clearly, but a gloomy laugh came from it.
In the underground dark market, everyone seems to have unanimously chosen to make their voices sound as scary as possible.
Lingchu looked through the mask and glanced at the small ankle exposed under the seller's black robe. It was delicate and smooth, and he was not very old.
What's more, Lingchu's Taoist body and cultivation methods are extremely sensitive to vitality. This is also the new ability of Lingchu's newly discovered Taoist body and the "Eternal Life Sutra".
She can vaguely sense the vitality of others and use this to determine their age.
People of different ages will have different vitality concentrations, and people with different cultivation levels will also have different vitality concentrations.
But in Lingchu's induction, these vitalities all have subtle and wonderful differences.
Indescribable, but clearly understood.
Lingchu was basically certain that this seller was a young man with a relatively low level of cultivation.
As for whether it's a boy or a girl, I don't know.
