The sky is dim, and the eyes are filled with beautiful and romantic colors. The ginkgo and red maple are intertwined to create a unique splendor. The autumn leaves fall like butterflies, creating a cold scene.
Walking north along Siyao Street, where the red leaves are blooming, you encounter a majestic stone sculpture. The statue has a high crown and a broad belt, holding a bamboo slip in its hand. It has a graceful character and elegant demeanor, giving it the feeling of becoming an immortal.
The northern area of Betsu Castle has an open terrain and passes through the painted archway. The trading center was located here and has been prosperous for a long time.
The site is about a mile wide, with six longitudes and six latitudes, and two cities in the east and west.
The shops are low and made of good wood. The shop signs are old and the shop names are various.
On the other side of the open space is a majestic palace-style building complex, with a plaque inscribed with the words "Qin Tower" in gold.
The interior of the building is luxuriously decorated, exuding elegance and nobility everywhere.
The glittering gold floor, fragrant wood cabinets, soft crystals of various colors polished the extremely thin display windows, and the precious lamps emitted a faint glow, creating a warm gold-selling cave.
The maids in front of the counter are wrapped in gauze, their jade-like skin is looming, and their soft lines give off an intoxicating aura. They apply makeup lightly, smile on their lips, and solicit guests with the slightest hint of charm.
The monks who come and go especially love this kind of sentiment. They will give you a flirtatious look here, and lean in to you as if they are possessed. The success or failure of the transaction is another matter. They take the opportunity to take advantage of it and cultivate it into a trend.
Yan Ci covered his face and smiled strangely: "This evil trend definitely did not come from the east."
Wu Junling avoided the dense crowd and lowered his voice: "The Tufun Islands are limited in territory, and have been subject to the foot of the Zhuxia cultivation world for a long time. The low self-esteem and oppressive environment have created an evil, dissolute, and narrow-minded national character."
After saying that, he said with concern: "The Broken Blade Flow is rising and needs to expand its territory. Songshan Ying is ambitious and committed to breaking servility and creating a will that is loyal, self-disciplined, united and aware of shame. If it is not stopped, it will become a disaster in the future. The troubles of all summers.”
Yan Ci sighed, thinking to himself that he had too much time to take care of himself in Star Reaching, so how could he have the time to care about this matter?
Suddenly he raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of a rich and beautiful maid looking lovingly at Han Bing. Yan Ci couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.
Han Bing turned his head and raised his eyebrows, glaring, raised his green fingers as if poking his eyes out, silently reminding Yan Ci to take care of his eyes and not to squint.
Biejin City is a capital city where merchants gather, but in just one night, the news of the Xia monks entering the city has spread throughout the eight streets and nine streets.
Although the cultivators in the building did not show any obvious hostility, they were quite wary.
Qing Ming turned a blind eye, wandered for a while, stopped in front of a high-end counter in a store, and casually spread out Zhang Su Jian.
The maid greeted him with a smile, and when she took a look at him, she was so shocked that she couldn't hold her tongue.
The plain paper lists the details of the items purchased. In terms of variety, quantity, and value, it is almost the most lavish handwriting since the fair was founded.
The maid's fingertips were trembling with excitement, and she timidly invited Qing Ming and others to move to the private room, and presented them with the Wuyin Ling Tea that they paid a lot of money for, and treated them warmly.
Not long after, a short shop owner with weird pigtails came over after hearing the news.
This man was proficient in Zhu Xia's language. He narrowed his triangular eyes and said with a smile: "I don't expect a distinguished guest to come. If there is any slightness, I will forgive you."
Qing Ming looked closely and saw that his clothes were quite relics of the ancient Xia Dynasty. He was wearing a sleeveless shirt, loose trousers, and animal skin shoes. He checked his breath and found that he had recently advanced to the stage of infancy.
Qing Ming said calmly: "You can just go to the market as you go, why would you alert fellow Taoists to receive them in person?"
The shop owner smiled and said, "I dare not avoid seeing visitors from Shenzhou."
After he carefully browsed the purchase list, he couldn't help but take a breath and said solemnly: "Most of the things you want to buy are specialties of this island. It doesn't take long to prepare everything. The only ones are Chunlin Green Lotus Root and Qiandie Bergamot." It has been extinct for a long time and is hard to find anywhere on the island.”
Qing Ming was quite disappointed. He leaned on the table and sighed, "I heard that someone in Guizhou cultivated Bi Lotus root. Is the rumor wrong?"
The shopkeeper said: "What your guest doesn't know is that the Dao of this island inherits the art of yin and yang. Chunlin green lotus root has the effect of melting yin and yang, and the supply has always been in short supply. Moreover, it is not easy to cultivate spiritual lotus root. After so many years, it is extremely rare to survive, even if there are other relics. No one is willing to sell it."
The shop owner was worried that Qing Ming would not believe it, so he explained in another way: "Our sect collects rare treasures from all over the world on a large scale, and all spiritual objects of slight value need to be circulated outside through Qin Tower. However, by calculation, our shop has not been used for decades. I’ve had this thing before.”
Qing Ming said with a moved expression: "It turns out that you are a Junyan of the Broken Blade style. You are being rude and disrespectful."
The shopkeeper was pleased with himself, but pretended to be humble. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. Since the visitor has heard about the power of the Broken Blade Style, the sale is very likely to be completed.
Qing Ming suddenly frowned and said, "I'm not in a hurry for what I have left, but the Chunlin Green Lotus Root is a must-have item for me on this trip. If my fellow Taoist can find this lotus root, I will be very grateful."
The shop owner looked embarrassed and thought hard for a long time, but still had no clue.
The maid waiting nearby was afraid of losing customers, so she couldn't help but whisper a few words. The shopkeeper raised his thick eyebrows and said in surprise: "Seriously?" The maid nodded slightly.
The shop owner turned around and said with a smile: "After all, time has come. Dear guests, you only need to wait until the sixth day of the lunar month, and the Chunlin Green Lotus Root will be served in our shop."
Qing Ming was also overjoyed when he heard this and immediately agreed on a delivery date.
The shop owner spoke in a tactful tone and sighed: "During the trade fair, the prices of best-selling items have been rising. In a few days, the shop may lose its capital."
Qing Ming laughed dumbly and said, "You can settle the payment according to the current market price, and I can pay the deposit."
The shop owner was overjoyed, thinking that this was a good time to extort money. He immediately raised the market price and calculated carefully. The total price of the items sold actually exceeded 2 million Qingling Jade.
Qing Mingsha was very generous and didn't bother to bargain at all, so he settled for 20,000 Qingling jade to avoid breaking the contract. Both parties got what they needed and complimented each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
The shop owner was so happy that he spoke eloquently and repeatedly inquired about Qing Ming's origins. Unexpectedly, Qing Ming cherished words like gold. Although his words were simple, they were full of meaning.
After all, the shopkeeper was very talkative and revealed a lot of details, and he couldn't help but feel depressed when he realized it.
As Yan Ci listened, he secretly exclaimed, "It is natural to wish to speak." It turns out that the more people know how to talk, the less talkative they are. This is called state.
After tea, Qing Ming and everyone left. The shop owner tried to persuade him to stay and stood up to see him off. After finishing, he sat down again, called the maid and said, "Follow me secretly. This kind of customer cannot be missed."
The maid bowed her head and suddenly said with a smile: "That female guest has made a deposit, how can she break her promise?"
The shopkeeper smiled a few times, raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you know he is a charming customer, why are you so excited?"
The maid's cheeks were red, and she suddenly fell into the owner's arms. Her greasy legs twisted and rubbed wantonly, and she said in a cooing voice: "Customers like this, so I have to pretend to be flattering. Is the senior jealous?"
The shopkeeper smiled ambiguously and said slowly: "It is convenient for women to disguise themselves as men when traveling around the world. It's not surprising. It's just that the disguise used by visitors is too clumsy to hide it from the discerning eye."
As he spoke, he did not forget to reach out and touch a few handfuls, and continued: "This woman claims to be a relative of Xiao Wu, but her behavior is extremely mysterious, and she has a sense of superiority. What's more, the time of her arrival on the island is too coincidental, so be careful not to fish in troubled waters. .”
The maid was slightly startled and asked doubtfully: "Senior, do you suspect that a fellow disciple was killed and that he has something to do with this girl?"
The shop owner said solemnly: "The foreign cultivators who have recently landed on the island are all suspected. The owner is sending people to step up the investigation and we will find out soon."
The maid restrained her wild movements, her red lips parted and said, "How can two infant-transformation female cultivators and a fusion-stage minion be compared to the five high-level cultivators of our sect?"
The shopkeeper said: "That female guest has a very strong aura and can be regarded as a leader among the monks of the same level. If she plays some conspiracy, she might be lucky enough to win."
A man of great virtue may not be able to withstand conspiracies and tricks. This truth is simple and easy to understand, and the maid was silent when she heard this.
The shop owner suddenly asked: "The secret room has not yet been opened, how do you know that the spring lin green lotus root is buried in the tomb of Empress Yayoi?"
The maid reported back: "The sect master used his magical power to see through walls and said that the secret room was filled with rare magical medicines. He even suspected that the legendary Yaolin fairy dew that only existed in the palace was hidden there, making the Chunlin jade lotus root and other wonders pale in comparison. "
The shopkeeper was horrified and shouted: "Yaolin Immortal Dew!"
The maid pursed her lips towards the shop next door, glanced at the woman posing outside the shop, and whispered close to her lips: "Just now, those two cheap maids were whispering, and I happened to hear this message."
The shop owner beamed with joy and said, "Brother Shenmu has been with the sect owner all year round and knows all the secrets very well. I guess there will be no lies."
The more he thought about it, the more he felt itchy. The shopkeeper stood up and said, "There are people who are looking to buy Chunlin Green Lotus Root. It is really a God-given opportunity. It's time to go to the ancient tomb to find some opportunities."
He turned to look at the shop next door and told the maid to pay careful attention and report in time if anything happened.
The shopkeeper yawned, pretended to be bored, and slipped out of the building to get some air. Then he hurried to a quiet place and left the city from the east.
The Empress Tomb is located in the central area of the Kofun Islands, hidden deep in the mountains at the north end of Kinkimon. Starting from Betsu Castle, you need to cross two straits, pass through more than ten islands and reefs, and have thousands of routes.
The shopkeeper was afraid that he would meet an acquaintance and reveal his secret, so he concealed his whereabouts and made a long circuit first to the east, then to the north. After a high-spirited escape all night, he arrived at Black Sand Island for a rest early the next morning.
There are many reefs here, the wind is high and the waves are strong. There is no grass on the island shore, and it is covered with rough black gravel. If you look around, you can see wisps of black mist floating in the air.
Although the environment is strange, the shop owner is content.
Just because they had just received urgent news that the Kuroki brothers were greedy for power and tried to destroy the secret chamber of the ancient tomb with brute force. Unfortunately, they encountered the backlash of the ban and died, even their souls were gone.
While the sect leader was feeling depressed, he personally went on stage to break the formation, and the progress was extremely rapid.
Based on a rough estimate of the distance, we expect to arrive at the Queen's Tomb at dawn tomorrow. The Chunlin Bilotus root was lucky enough to find a buyer even before it was unearthed, which is probably good news for Songshan Ying.
I don't dare to expect anyone who sees the magic medicine in the secret room to be a part of it, but I'm sure of getting a reward.
The more the shop owner thought about it, the happier he became, as if he saw a room full of elixirs mixed with clear jade waving to him slowly.
Dead things never wave, the one waving is a living person with evil intentions!
A young man with a lazy expression and surprisingly bright black eyes was leaning on the rocks and throwing pebbles.
A pair of eyes were like shining black jade, looking directly into the soul of the shop owner with a hint of disdain, mocking his absurd and childish ideas.
Yan Ci's appearance at this time and place without any warning was enough to make the shop owner extremely suspicious. Just as he was about to ask questions, he saw figures flashing behind the rocks, and Qing Ming and Han Bing walked out slowly.
The corners of the lips of the two women were raised slightly, with teasing smiles, and their gazes were as if they were looking at a dying person.
