"Then everyone, please come with me."
Seeing Lin Pingzhen's actions, shopkeeper Zhang didn't say anything, just smiled. After the group of young disciples were almost gone, he invited everyone into the courtyard.
Away from the screen wall, Ning Xia felt that the suffocation that was weighing on her heart had dissipated a lot, as if she had relaxed and finally had the mind to look at other things.
"I wonder if I could ask you about the origin of that screen wall in front of Shopkeeper Zhang's door...?"
The person asking the question was Lin Pingzhen. Of course, he didn't expect to find out anything. He wouldn't really tell them the origin of this thing, but he just wanted to find out something.
This thing... Lin Ping really felt that there was something wrong with it. After all, it is no small thing for so many people to be distracted in front of the door. This screen wall is by no means an ordinary object.
Moreover, the problem was not only the screen wall, but also other things hidden deep underground. Lin Pingzhen was not in a hurry for this moment.
Hearing this, the other party raised his eyebrows and seemed not surprised: "Master Lin has good eyesight. There is nothing I can't say. This thing is indeed special."
Well, that's so direct.
"This object is carved from a special spiritual stone that was discovered in southern Xinjiang decades ago by the owner of our store. After being refined, it has miraculous effects in warding off evil spirits and suppressing nightmares. It is said that those with evil intentions will be severely injured."
Southern Xinjiang.
It's another very sensitive place. It can be said that that land is the most closed place in the southeastern border. Due to the terrain and some historical issues, most monks in the southeastern border know very little about this area.
The secret realm of Yanling Lake is also located here.
"What do shopkeeper Zhang mean by these words?" Lin Pingzhen stopped dead in his tracks, with an ugly look on his face, as if he was offended.
With evil intentions?
Not to mention that the group of young monks who just went back were relatively young. Could it be that they all had evil intentions? Moreover, except for Xie Shi, everyone present was a disciple of the Wuhua Sect. Zhang Gui's words were quite malicious.
"Master Lin, there is no need to be so excited. I have no ill intentions, it's just a rumor. If it really had such a miraculous effect, this thing would have been snatched up by everyone in the world." He said with a smile.
"It turns out that this thing is not as magical as the maker said. It is just an ordinary screen wall, but it has a slightly intimidating effect. The young disciples of Guizong feel uncomfortable. Perhaps they are young and have unstable spirits. You will feel uncomfortable. Isn’t it okay for Master Lin to check just now?”
"You don't have to worry, the store will not be messy when operating here. If you find anything uncomfortable at any time, you can come back and discuss it with us."
Lin Pingzhen pursed his lips and did not continue to ask. After all, the investigation outside just now did not find anything wrong. Another thing, what the other party said makes sense, so that's it.
Ning Xia, who was following behind, felt a little indescribable.
What's going on with this shopkeeper? Why is it that as soon as you open your mouth, there is a burst of anger?
Although they appear to be polite and reasonable on the surface, many of their words are quite harsh upon closer inspection. They have a rogue style of "a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water", as if they are sure that they will not go crazy.
This is to catch up with guests, right?
There's something weird about this place both inside and out. If she hadn't come here with a purpose, she might have turned around and ran away in anger. Who would like such a weird store?
But it's useless to talk about it now. They didn't really come here to watch the fun.
Ning Xia turned her head and glanced at Xie Shi, who was also looking at her with deep eyes, alas...
After crossing the screen wall and entering the courtyard, what comes into view is a large garden, lush and full of flowers, making it a vibrant scene.
At the front is a peach forest. Although it is not yet the flowering season, you can still identify them from the shape of the trees and leaves, and you can predict what kind of beauty they will look like during the flowering season.
After a fence was separated, the overall height of the plants began to decrease. They were all short spiritual plants with abundant spiritual energy escaping around them.
Although Ningxia does not practice alchemy, he has specialized in spiritual plants and can identify most common spiritual plants in the world of cultivation. Of course, she would definitely not be able to recognize spiritual herbs that are relatively remote or scarce.
She couldn't recognize most of this spiritual grass. It seemed that she would have to study more in depth in the future. Looking at these spiritual herbs, she wondered if she had not studied well, and she could not recognize any of them.
No one noticed that Wang Jingxuan, who was deliberately at the back, changed her expression.
Ningxia, a layman, cannot recognize it, but it does not mean that Wang Jingxuan does not recognize it. She has practiced alchemy and has inherited it. Over the years, she has quietly reached an astonishing level. Identifying spiritual herbs is only a very basic matter for her. . The total number of people present may not be as many as she knows.
If it is some kind of rare spiritual grass, it is normal, but these spiritual plants should not appear here, or they have no "position" to appear here.
These are not the spiritual herbs commonly used by righteous monks, but the spiritual plants used by demon cultivators.
For example, the row of tall and thin spiritual plants are slightly yellow in color, a bit like medlar seedlings, and are a bit taller than the two on the left and right. There is a strange group of things at the top that look like flower buds but seem not to be there. If she remembered correctly, this was the main ingredient in the elixir Yundingdan commonly used by demon cultivators. It was generally used to dredge the demonic energy and relieve the relatively violent power in the demon cultivator's body.
And this one, magic velvet, a poisonous weed famous for its magic. Although the spiritual energy looks overwhelming on the outside, if a Taoist cultivator accidentally takes it, he will be eroded by the evil energy and die in an instant.
... Most of these are plants commonly used in the magic world, and a large part of them are even dangerous spiritual plants. What does it mean to appear so densely in the territory of Wuhua Sect?
Wang Jingxuan's mind was spinning, and she had several conjectures popping up in her mind. She didn't show it on her face, but her pace was a little slower. If you look carefully, you seem to be more careful, always paying attention to the surrounding situation, for fear of missing any movement.
Most of the courtyards are the same and nothing special. Although the courtyard of Tianbao Pavilion is large, it actually has little content and no ingenuity. It is just a very straightforward design that ends at a glance.
Along the way, apart from seeing a lot of flowers and plants, there seemed to be no real content. It's not so much a garden as it is just a vast planting field.
It seems that the owner of Tianbao Pavilion is not very good at design. Ningxia thought boredly...but the next moment she was slapped in the face.
"Wow——"
Although he tried his best to tell himself to be calm and maintain the dignity that a monk should have, the younger disciples couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
Of course, people who don't respond don't mean they are really that calm, maybe they just don't make a sound.
Ningxia has experienced a lot of things over the years, big scenes and small scenes, peaceful and chaotic, and it can be considered that it has seen the world. I saw a lot of buildings with various styles. I haven't seen anything strange. It's just this style. This is the first time I've seen it.
