The next morning, the sun rose, and its rays of light reflected thousands of rays of rays of golden light through the vast mist.
The mountains and forests are shrouded in clouds and mist, and the green trees are shady. They stretch endlessly, and a city stands abruptly like a creeping giant beast.
High on the city wall, on a stone plaque about ten feet long, there are three large seal characters carved with dragons and phoenixes: Wuyang City!
The day had just begun, and there was already a long queue of people entering the city at the gate of Wuyang City.
There were many strange and strange monsters mixed in the queue, including tigers, cows, horses, and rabbits, but the people waiting in line were not surprised by this and were used to it.
Wuyang City is a city of casual cultivators, and it is close to the Nanqi Mountains, so naturally there are many demon cultivators.
In the long queue, a black-haired mandrill mingled inconspicuously among them, looking left and right from time to time, its bright eyes full of novelty.
Xiong Shanjun blocked the Nanqi Mountains for thirty-nine days, causing Wuyang City to be passively closed for a month.
Now that the mountain gate has been unblocked, Wuyang City has finally returned to its bustling hustle and bustle.
Many of the people queuing up to enter the city were survivors who had escaped from the Nanqi Mountains. Most of them had unkempt faces and miserable looks. It was obvious at a glance that they were like Zhang San who had been hiding for thirty-nine days. He didn't escape until the Liuzhu Tianlin disappeared.
The queue to enter the city was very fast, and soon it was Mandrill's turn.
"Fellow Taoist, stop! Please show me the Wuyang City Order."
Two burly city guards wearing hard armor and holding halberds stood in front of them.
One of the city guards had thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a bronze helmet and looking at him carefully.
Both of the two city guards are not weak in cultivation. They are both at the late stage of the eighth level of Qi refining. Their auras are solid and powerful. You can tell at a glance that they are the best in the late stage of Qi refining.
The Wuyang City Order is a token of entry issued by Wuyang City. There is an energy restriction in the token. If the energy disappears, you must spend money to replenish it, otherwise you will be kicked out of the city.
Ye Jin, who was at the back of the team, had already asked clearly about the process of entering the city, and he handed over his hands obediently and said:
"This is my first time entering the city without a city order."
The two city guards were not surprised. During this period, there were many casual cultivators entering the city for the first time, and most of them were demon cultivators. The reason is naturally self-evident.
If you suddenly get a lot of wealth, you should go to the city to spend some money like Ye Jin.
"Ten low-grade spiritual stones." Another city guard said in a loud voice.
Ye Jin handed over the spiritual stone that he had prepared in advance.
After scanning the city guard's spiritual sense to confirm that it was correct, he took out a black token and gave it to Mandrill, and said:
"go in."
"Thank you both." Ye Jin smiled and cupped his hands.
This black token is the Wuyang City Order. On the back of the token is the pattern of Wuyang City, and on the front is the word "武".
When my spiritual sense penetrated it, I could feel another energy flowing slowly inside. I roughly estimated that it could last for ten days.
In other words, every day you stay in Wuyang City, even if you do nothing, you must pay a low-grade spiritual stone.
"What a damn huge profit..." Ye Jin sighed.
As soon as I entered the city, I was greeted by the noisy and lively atmosphere of the market, bustling with pedestrians, and monsters mixed in from time to time, making it seem both magical and realistic.
On the spacious streets, there are many vendors holding large umbrellas and setting up street stalls. Of course, these vendors are not selling secular fruits and vegetables, but elixirs, talismans, magic tools, etc.:
A first-grade low-grade magical talisman and five pieces of low-grade spiritual stones.
A first-level low-grade water arrow talisman and four low-grade spiritual stones.
A medium-grade magic weapon, a fine iron fan, the price is negotiable, or if you exchange it for a defensive magic weapon of the same level, the price can be increased.
Peiyuan Pill has the effect of strengthening the body and aphrodisiac, and can control ten women at night. There are discounts for wholesale in large quantities.
Most of the stalls on the street are only low-grade first-grade magic weapons and talismans. Occasionally, there are medium-grade magic weapons with ominous prices or extremely high prices.
Some of them are novices who have just entered the practice of cultivation, and their cultivation level is only at the early stage.
Ye Jin's sharp eyes discovered that the street stall selling Peiyuan Dan had the best sales. From time to time, male cultivators or male demons rushed to buy it. As for the reason...
Everyone who understands understands.
There are many shops and houses on both sides of the street, including teahouses, wine shops, pawn shops, workshops, temples and public houses.
Standing in the middle of the road, feeling the bustling traffic and the noisy atmosphere of the market, Ye Jin seemed to have returned to her previous life for a moment.
"Master Immortal, is this your first time coming to Wuyang City? Do you need a guide?"
At this time, a young and expectant voice came from the side.
Ye Jin turned her head and saw a pretty girl standing next to her. She was about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a red embroidered skirt. She had a beautiful face, lively and dark eyes, and she was tall and graceful.
"Are you a mortal?"
Ye Jin asked curiously as he didn't feel the mana fluctuations on the girl's body.
"The Immortal Master has good eyesight, but I am indeed a mortal." The girl glanced at the mandrill timidly, leaned forward, and replied with a hopeful look in her eyes.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll eat you?!"
After saying that, the mandrill had a fierce look in its eyes, its sharp fangs were turned outwards, and it looked fierce, as if it was choosing people to devour.
The girl's face turned pale with fright, she took half a step back, suppressed the fear in her heart, took a big step forward, her beautiful eyes were full of stubbornness, she bowed respectfully and said:
"I'm not... not afraid!"
"Interesting." Ye Jin withdrew his fierce look and said with an interesting expression:
"What's your name? Are you a native of Wuyang City?"
"Replying to the Immortal Master, this slave is called Xiu Niang. She has grown up in Wuyang City since she was a child. She is as familiar with Wuyang City as her own home."
Seeing Ye Jin's interest, the girl's eyes were filled with joy and she quickly introduced her enthusiastically:
"No matter what you want, Master Immortal, I know where it is."
Ye Jin nodded and asked, "I need to sell some magic weapons. Do you know which one has the right price?"
"I know, Zhenbao Pavilion in the city has the most reasonable prices, and its business reputation is very good!"
The joy on the embroiderer's face could not be concealed. Knowing that the order was done, she quickly spoke enthusiastically.
"Lead the way."
Nodding slightly, Ye Jin sent out a low-grade spiritual stone.
Seeing the mandrill, she took out the spirit stone without saying a word. The embroiderer knew that the fierce-looking monkey demon in front of her was a high-roller, so she hurriedly took the spirit stone with her hands, her red face full of excitement:
"Thank you, Immortal Master! Thank you, Immortal Master! Immortal Master, please come with me!"
The embroiderer was so happy that she walked in front with small steps, and Ye Jin followed calmly behind her.
There were also a few porter-like mortals around who looked at the girl with envy, but seeing the mandrill's fierce appearance, they did not dare to approach.
One person and one monster were walking on the busy street, and Ye Jin suddenly asked:
"You're a mortal, what do you want spiritual stones for?"
"Replying to the Immortal Master, although I am a mortal, my younger brother has spiritual roots. As long as I accumulate enough spiritual stones, my brother can worship in Wuyang Mansion, practice immortal magic, and become a master."
The embroiderer's bright eyes were full of hope and she replied firmly.
Ye Jin nodded and said nothing, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
Yes, it seems that there are also brother-supporting demons in the world of immortality!
