Beautiful flowers and jade trees, purple clouds and red mist, rippling spring stairs, rustling feather forest——
The green clouds are covered with jade light, and the five qi of Dragon and Han are floating in the sky.
After receiving the jade talisman from the Immortal Market from several Taoist priests, I truly entered the Immortal Market.
Look around.
I saw a fairyland and wonderful scenery, the scenery was extremely pleasant!
Although this place is said to be a market place, in real terms, it is no different from a huge city, with tea houses, wine shops, stone squares and animal stables, restaurants, brothels, studies and pawnshops.
Everything is available, nothing lacking.
The streets in Xian City are all paved with jade stone from the depths of the East Sea.
Under the sunlight, the five colors are blurred, and there are dense smoke moving upwards, making people feel like they are stepping on a rainbow bridge.
The clouds and mist surround me gently.
It has a unique elegance...
The people who come and go in this fairy city have different appearances. In addition to the immortal monks, there are countless spirits, warriors, scribes and novices, gods and so on.
All of a sudden.
Crowds of people gathered in one place, and the voices of calling friends kept coming and going, making it very lively.
Chen Heng only glanced briefly, and then he happened to catch a sight.
Not far away, a tall young monk wearing colorful brocade cassocks was walking casually in the fairy market with several monks, admiring the scenery.
The young monk has red lips and white teeth, very broad ears, and almost slouched shoulders.
He didn't hold any tin staff or rosary beads in his hand, but he had a magic ring sword slung around his waist.
Even though it was covered by the seven treasures, the sinister evil intention in the sword still faintly leaked out.
Chilling air, bursts of cold power——
"This monk has such a powerful body."
Chen Heng glanced at the Demon Ring Knife, his eyes moved slightly, and he thought to himself.
With his current eyesight, he could see that the monk's Qi and blood were as majestic as the lake and the sea, so strong that it could disturb the surrounding aura without any stimulation.
The heartbeat sounds like a Kui cow.
Between the beats, there was a faint sound of thunder and shock!
In terms of physical body alone, this is like a savage beast wearing human skin. His attainments in the physical body are by no means inferior to his own.
And the magic ring sword on his waist is not an extraordinary object. It is full of evil energy. It is more like a magic weapon than a monk treasure.
Their eyes briefly touched.
The young monk smiled slightly, put his hands together to ask questions, and bowed.
Chen Heng also bowed in return, looked no further, and continued to move forward.
Although Xu Dutian is a manifestation of the immortal way, he is not without the legal tradition of the Western Samana.
These monks spread out in the two western states, and there were not many of them.
However, those temples and nunneries in the two western states did not follow the Zen Sutras and Buddhist teachings very well.
Even the Thunder Mansion and several aristocratic families based in the two western states were able to suppress these monks into obedience and were unable to cause chaos. During the New Year's Day, one must faithfully hand in offerings so as to gain the convenience of establishing a mountain and teaching disciples.
Like that small temple.
I'm afraid it's difficult to train people like young monks...
"I just came to the fairy market and met someone from outside the world. It's interesting. I wonder which Buddhist land he came from, the Wuglai Heaven...or the Infinite Light Heaven, which is also one of the sixteen heavens?"
Chen Heng smiled heartily.
And not far away.
Chen Heng disappeared into the crowd.
The young monk calmly withdrew his gaze, put his hand on the magic ring sword at his waist, and remained silent for a long time, thoughtfully.
"Senior Brother Hongji?"
I saw that he was slightly absent-minded.
A monk with a rough appearance and a Shanzi hat couldn't bear it anymore and called out in a low voice:
"What's wrong? Didn't you agree to buy some products from the East China Sea and distribute them to your junior brothers after returning to the mountain? Why did you suddenly become crazy on the street? Could it be -"
His pupils shrank slightly and he frowned:
"Could it be that the senior in the temple made some noise again in Xu Dutian, and we also had to suffer from it?"
Upon hearing this, Monk Hongji slowly released his hand from the Demonic Ring Knife, shook his head, and said with a smile:
"No matter how bad the senior in the temple behaves, the most he can do is be beaten to death by people from the Xuanmen. How can he implicate us?
Collecting a body for him can be regarded as a sign of respect for the elders, but that Taoist..."
Monk Hongji paused for a moment before speaking:
"That Taoist just now... had so much murderous intent! I'm afraid he was a difficult person to deal with!
When it comes time to choose a son-in-law in Dragon Palace, I have a rival..."
Although the Dharma Assembly in the Dragon Palace is called choosing a son-in-law, it is just an excuse to make friends with the world's most talented people.
As for whether to marry the dragon girl, it is not necessary.
For this reason.
Even among the monks who forbid marriage, many of them went to great lengths to attend the fun.
"Is this true? Even senior brother, you can't defeat him?"
The monk wearing Shanzi hat was doubtful.
The few monks around him generally had the same expression.
"Now that my body and mind have been extinguished, my stamina appears before me. I am about to attain the realm of 'viewing ground', investigate the six realms of thoughts and confusions in the realm of desire, and see the flow of the holy path. This means that I can endure great suffering and live calmly, with a bright mind."
Monk Hongji pondered for a long time, moved his lips, his teeth were as smooth as ivory, and said:
"As far as the orthodox immortal way is concerned, it should be at the third level of Zifu, which is only one level away from the so-called Dongxuan cultivation level. However, since the immortal way has the name of orthodoxy, there is no shortage of good players...
For example, I dare not say that I can defeat that Taoist just now.
Which one is stronger and which one is weaker, you still have to have a real fight to know..."
As soon as these words came out.
Several monks looked at each other in silence, not knowing what to say.
"Let's go, these crazy monkeys, who are their teachers, all fell into the well and drowned while trying to save the moon..."
In the end, it was Monk Hongji who spoke first, breaking the silence and saying:
"You are also those who practice Zen and worship the Buddha. Why don't you know how to let it go? Only in silence can you see the true nature. You can only do your best in this matter. If it is really impossible to do, then let it go.
It was not easy to get to Xudutian.
I'd better take a closer look at this scenery, don't let down the beautiful scenery. "
…
…
After passing through several streets and seeing many strange sights along the way.
Chen Heng no longer stopped to look at it, raised his sword light, and flew towards an extremely gorgeous and magnificent palace in the center of the fairy city.
There are at least a hundred merchants of various types in this fairy city, ranging in size.
But if we say that the one with the most collection of treasures is the Cangxiao Tower opened by the Dragon Clan himself.
The so-called one thing does not bother two masters.
When Chen Heng entered the Yuquan Immortal Market, in addition to purchasing Huangchi Pills and exploring the whereabouts of the innate essence of the Five Elements, he also needed to look for various foreign medicines for Taoist practice.
What a thing.
All are precious materials.
If you are in Cangxiao Tower, you will find nothing.
I'm afraid it's hard to find it in other merchants...
Not long after, he pressed his head and stopped in front of a towering palace building facing north and south.
Looking up, there are three large lacquered gold characters of "Cangxiao Tower" written on the black plaque.
This palace is extremely tall and majestic, towering over all the pavilions. The single platform is made entirely of white jade, six feet tall, like a high wall, with a slender shadow walking back and forth among the white jade, like a dragon. Snakes are extremely novel.
And the glazed tiles of various colors are facing the rising sun, and the light is dazzling and brilliant, giving the passing clouds a layer of halo, making it very blurry.
There are no steps at the entrance to this palace, and the threshold is extremely high.
When Chen Heng was about to fly away, the smoke and clouds under his feet suddenly solidified, making it easy to step on.
The birth and death step by step is also novel.
When he stepped on the clouds and entered the Cangxiao Tower, two chubby little boys in the form of carps at the door immediately shook the golden bells in their hands, making a pleasant sound, and then bowed and saluted.
Upon entering, I realized that the lobby of Chongxiao Tower was extremely vast.
Various curiosities are listed on hundreds of tables, which are restricted and allow guests to take a closer look.
As for the golden arches, jade pillars, beaded curtains and other decorations, they are gorgeous.
But compared with these treasures on the table, they pale in comparison.
“Your distinguished guest’s presence here can be said to have added glory to this place!”
Hearing the ringing of the golden bell, several Taoist priests who had some free time were about to step forward to greet him happily, but they were forced to retreat by the eyes of a handsome young man in green robes.
Then he dressed up his robe, came forward with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said:
"Your honorable guest, do you want to buy talismans, rare materials or elixirs? To be honest, several new alchemists have recently arrived and have become enshrinements in the building. In the past, there were many elixirs that were in short supply, but now there are many more. If you want to take advantage of the surplus, now is the time!"
He saw Chen Heng looking at him.
The young man in green smiled and introduced:
"I am Peng Qing, one of the great stewards of Cangxiao Tower. If you have anything to do with me, just tell me. I will not let you come back disappointed!"
In the Yuquan Fairy Market, the three leaders have the highest status in the market, and they are the confidants and informants of Princess Changle of the Dragon Clan.
Cangxiao Tower is the property of the Dragon Clan.
But it is also very hierarchical.
The two carp boys with the golden bells and some of the handymen in the door are not of good quality. If there is no opportunity, I am afraid that there will be no chance of promotion in their lifetime.
On top of the ordinary service, it is the great service.
And above the chief steward, there are four stewards and the owner of Cangxiao Tower.
Within here, every time you go up one level.
The monthly salary and treatment are completely different!
And Peng Qing was able to reach the position of chief executive in Cangxiao Tower. In addition to his good skin, he also had good eyesight.
Just now, from the corner of his eye, he vaguely caught a glimpse of a sword light tearing open the atmosphere, driving away the clouds, and erupting as fast as thunder, and then Chen Heng's figure emerged from it.
Such an escape method, such a person!
I must be here for big business!
The commission alone is enough to make a fortune, so how can you miss it?
At this time.
After listening to Peng Qing's words, Chen Heng also glanced at the desks.
Seeing that there was nothing surprising here, he withdrew his gaze and said:
"I want to get rid of some sundries. Is there a secluded place in your building?"
"Yes! Yes! Dear guest, please come with me!"
Upon hearing this, Peng Qing knew that Chen Heng was here to sell stolen goods, so he was not surprised. He hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way, followed the side door, walked through a long corridor, and arrived in a very quiet and quiet room.
The walls of the room are smooth and clean, and there are not many decorations. There is a row of bookshelves against the east wall, which contain bamboo slips, silk books, gold, silver and jade volumes. There are not even any restrictions on them. It is obvious that they are only used for entertainment while drinking tea.
"Don't talk nonsense, let's get down to business first, don't delay."
Chen Heng shook his head slightly, raised his hand, and dozens of Qiankun bags shook out.
Peng Qing didn't have time to be surprised.
The next moment, many demon cultivators' storage utensils flew down and were piled on the table, which made people feel surprised.
"..."
Rao Pengqing was well-informed and was briefly stunned for a moment. He looked at Chen Heng in surprise, but he quickly gathered his thoughts and called out a few worshipers and servants.
While they were counting the value of various items using the method of identification, the servants were registering and making records.
Chen Heng didn't need any service. He just moved to the bookshelf nearby and picked up a book of travel notes from the past to read.
But before he finished flipping through the book, Peng Qing had the result.
"Dear guest, please take a look. Is this estimate correct?"
Peng Qing slowly suppressed the dim light in his eyes and absorbed the art of discerning objects and spirits. His face was slightly pale. After bowing to Chen Heng, he handed over the jade book in the boy's hand.
Behind him, the auras of the several offerings were also showing signs of decay. It was obvious that once the magic of identifying objects was used, the losses would be considerable.
"There are some elixirs in your honor, which are very rare in the East China Sea. I have given you a favorable price within my authority, which can be regarded as my kindness..."
Peng Qing laughed.
Chen Heng glanced at the jade album and saw that the valuations given for those important items were not only not low, but also slightly higher, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
The reputation of Cangxiao Tower is very resounding, and it is praised and praised by many practitioners.
Not only in the East China Sea, but also the monks in Luzhou have heard about it, and they certainly have their own methods of management.
"Dispose of those storage containers as well, and bring me some Huangchi Pills."
Chen Heng handed the jade album back and said.
"Huang Chi Dan?"
Peng Qing's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "This thing is very valuable, and there is not much stock in the building. I don't know how much our distinguished guest needs to buy."
"Thirty pieces are enough."
Chen Heng thought about it in his mind before speaking.
Fifty percent of the turbidity in his Yuanling has been eliminated, and thirty Huangchi Pills are enough to deal with what is left.
Peng Qing was overjoyed when he heard this. According to the rules of Cangxiao Tower, the guests spent more money in the tower.
He serves as the greeter.
The more profit you will receive afterwards!
Therefore, although thirty Huangchi Pills are by no means a small amount, fortunately, several alchemy masters have come to take charge recently, so it is not impossible to get them.
After Peng Qing patted his chest and promised that the matter would be done safely, the man became impatient and hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
The few priests and servants were not surprised. After bowing, they also left the quiet room.
And at this moment.
Chen Heng put the unfinished book in his hand back on the shelf and scanned it casually.
But this time, he actually saw something quite interesting.
"New Year's Day Commentary?"
Chen Heng's heart moved slightly, as if he remembered something, he took out the bundle of jade slips in his hand and spread them out to take a look.
And as expected.
Among the ranks of Zifu's high achievers.
It actually made him find his own name...
But after reading my own rankings and comments.
Chen Heng didn't feel any joy at all, he just rolled his eyes and looked thoughtful.
“This is the latest issue this year, and it’s actually more lively than in previous years.”
Suddenly, the door suddenly opened, and a woman came in. She chuckled lightly. When she looked at the jade slip in Chen Heng's hand, she said:
"Are you also curious about this Chen Heng? It's interesting to say that since the name came out, it has attracted a lot of discussion even in remote places like the East China Sea."
"oh?"
Chen Heng put down the jade slip and said calmly:
"Please enlighten me."
