The breeze blows through the forest and the sky is clear.
In the blue, a small black spot gradually enlarged. With the roar of jet engines, the outline of an airplane gradually became clear.
Under the clear sky, the green mountains stretch to the horizon. Small and exquisite wooden houses are scattered in the valleys or on the hillsides, with pointed eaves exposed among the dense trees.
If you look carefully, you can still find many small cave dwellings. The courtyard is very exquisite, with oil lamps hanging on the stone walls, and potted plants or clothes hanging outside.
On the highest mountain peak, a majestic palace was built against the mountain. It was like a giant spirit god sitting cross-legged among the mountains. It was calm, honest and majestic.
The sun hung on the horn eaves of the roof, emitting a dazzling halo.
This is Danjin, the capital of the Regals Mountain Empire, and the palace on the peak is the Qinglian Palace of the Zhao royal family, also known as the "Ox Horn Palace" and "Qing Palace".
The plane descended slowly and landed on a round, flat-topped mountain. The airport seemed to have been carved out by a magical axe. With just one axe, the mountain peaks were flattened, creating a huge and flat open space.
Looking down from a high place, you can see a circle of roads coiling below the airport, with a large number of low wooden houses built beside the roads.
Qingguo people live in the mountains all year round. It is difficult to dig roads and there are few places suitable for living. Moreover, the mountain winds are strong, which is not suitable for high-rise buildings. In order to save space, the houses are generally short, or they live in caves, which is primitive and ancient. In the cave dwelling.
In Qingguo, it is normal for a family of four or five people to live in a space of about 20 square meters.
The main races of Qing Country are blue-blooded people, immigrants from the Eastern Continent, and Ying people. Due to the geographical environment, although the land area is the largest on the Red Earth Continent, the total population is less than one-fifth of the Red Country.
According to research by scholars, the ancestors of the blue-blooded people are an earlier batch of immigrants from the Eastern Continent.
The Regals Mountains produce a type of bamboo with light blue texture on its leaves. Its scientific name is "blue spotted bamboo". Blue-blooded people like to eat the bamboo shoots of this bamboo, commonly known as "blue shoots".
The formation of blue bamboo shoots and blue-blooded people are very close. The other two reasons are cave life and vegetarianism, which are not exposed to sunlight all year round.
Pure-blooded blue-blooded people only eat vegetarian food and like to eat blue bamboo shoots as a side dish. They are physically weak, but their spiritual perception is sharper than other races, so the proportion of evolved people is the highest among blue-blooded people.
The blood color of mixed-blooded blue-blooded people is darker, and their diet is similar to that of other races. They do not avoid meat and vegetables, and their psychic perception is lower than that of pure-blooded people, but it is still higher than that of other races.
The Zhao royal family has always claimed that they are blue-blooded people with the purest blood. Whether this is true or not is unknown, but they are indeed smart and talented, and most of the royal bloodline has the strength of guard level or above.
As a superpower with only one-fifth of the population of its neighboring countries, Qingguo relies on a high proportion of elite talents. It is known as "the guards are as numerous as dogs, and the lords are everywhere".
But then again, due to the inherent physical deficiencies of blue-blooded people, the strong men of the Qing Kingdom at the same level are often weaker than those from other countries.
A few hours later, in the center of Danjin, at the foot of the mountain where Qing Palace is located, in a shopping street built in the valley, an old man over seventy years old was lying on a bamboo chair in front of the cave dwelling, holding a hand in one hand. Holding the teapot, half-closed eyes and fell asleep.
Next to the old man is a semi-curved cave window. Through the bamboo window bars, you can vaguely see the antique wooden shelves in the store. A calligraphy plaque hangs above the window, with straight and round fonts: "The best kindness is like water, and kindness carries everything."
The light suddenly dimmed, and the old man slowly opened his half-closed eyes.
The visitor was a young man with ordinary appearance and build, wearing an unranked military uniform common to mercenaries.
Not a local.
This was the old man's first judgment. The pace of life in Danjin is slow, and locals will definitely change into loose Qingguoshan clothes when going shopping.
Looking again, his eyes were steady and his temperament was calm. There was no uneasiness or novelty that foreigners might feel when they first arrive in a strange area.
Either he is a businessman who has been living for many years, or he is a ruthless character.
The old man prefers the latter, because this temperament does not belong to businessmen.
"Are you Mr. Park Jung-cheol Park?"
the young man asked politely.
"That's right." The old man nodded and slowly stood up from the chair.
He is modest and cautious, and has a higher evaluation of youth in his heart. He has been running this restaurant for decades and has met countless customers. The customers are all big shots, or soon to be big shots, or their arrogant sons who are about to fall.
What he sells is not antiques, but the most mysterious commodity in the world - undercurrent relics.
It is a dead sea pearl washed up on this land by the waves of time and space. It is full of unknown power and countless possibilities. It is an important medium for the ordinary to become legendary.
"I heard that you have ancient artifacts suitable for quick healers. Can you sell them?" the young man asked straight to the point.
He is Chen Xing who just got off the plane. He took a taxi directly from the airport.
coming.
The old man's pupils shrank slightly and his expression became serious. The background of the person who knows this news is definitely not simple. He is either rich or noble, and he is extremely rich.
"Yes, yes, but it has been booked." The old man said truthfully. There is no need to lie when facing people of this level. Lying is meaningless and will only make people resentful. The most important thing for a businessman is to be harmonious and make money, and not to offend inside or outside.
"Can you sell it to me? I'm willing to pay a higher price." Chen Xing said tentatively.
"I'm afraid..." the old man pondered for a moment and said, "It's difficult."
"How do you say that?" Chen Xing asked.
"This is Dongtinghou's second son's fifteenth birthday gift, unless you can persuade Dongtinghou to sell it." The old man said carefully.
"Forget it." Chen Xing is not stupid enough to offend local dignitaries just after coming to a foreign country. Doesn't he think he is impatient?
However, he is also a little impatient, otherwise he would not consider stealing the "feat" of the Qingguo Princess.
"There are other goods in the store. Sir, you can take a look at them." The old man half-bent down and invited Chen Xing to enter the store. "If you like it, I will give you a discount."
"I only want the quick healer." Chen Xing said.
"I'm sorry, this kind of goods is very rare. There is only one in the store." The old man said apologetically.
Fast healers are already rare, and great healers who can advance to Lord level are even rarer, so few people will get such items.
"Is there any relevant information? I mean the source of the goods. I can pay for it." Chen Xing changed direction and tried to pay for the information.
"This..." The old man hesitated for a few seconds and nodded decisively, "Okay, let me ask for you."
After saying that, the old man entered the store, probably using a black watch to communicate.
Chen Xing stood at the door and waited for more than ten minutes. The old man came out, approached Chen Xing, stretched out two fingers, "Twenty thousand gold coins, I will give you the coordinates of the fragment. I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."
The old man spoke very cryptically, and Chen Xing roughly understood what the other party meant, which was to tell him the location where he picked up the thing and let him try his luck.
Since information is bought with money, not many people know about it.
Chen Xing thought about it for a moment and then agreed. Twenty thousand gold coins is not a small amount, but if you can find it, it will be a very profitable business.
