The Monk

Chapter 29 Yue Shang Ji

Zhang Ai couldn't detect the middle-aged man's cultivation level, and knew that he was no better than himself, so he bowed respectfully and said, "Disciple, I have met my senior." Zhang Ai was dressed as a Taoist priest, with the Tianlei Mountain mark on his purple Taoist robe. The middle-aged man looked at him slightly. , surprised at his youth, nodded and spoke: "From Tianlei Mountain? Reaching the top level of foundation building at such a young age? I will ask Zhenru Lao Niubi another day where the wonderful medicine came from and was wasted by his disciples." He thought that Zhang was afraid of taking it. Only with the elixir can you achieve your current level of cultivation.

Zhang Ai remained respectful: "Senior, do you know the leader of my sect?"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "That Niubi, it's really hard not to recognize him. Have you seen the three-headed monster just now?" He came here for the big dog.

Zhang Wen understood that it must be a big dog barking to drive away enemies, emitting aura, attracting middle-aged people to come. With how precious the demon pill is, how can a cultivator let it go?

Monsters and humans have different cultivation methods and different levels of cultivation. Although they can detect each other, they cannot measure the level of cultivation. He keeps a bunch of monsters, and he naturally understands them. Monsters have a unique method of aura concentration. If they don't actively release their aura, it will be difficult for others to detect it unless they come into close contact. Even if it is noticed, it is impossible to determine the cultivation level of the monster. So, he hesitated and replied: "It's my disciple's spiritual pet."

"Oh." The middle-aged man's interest was greatly reduced when he heard that it was his pet. No matter how high the spiritual pet cultivation level of the foundation-building disciples was, he also knew the beast control spell of Tianlei Mountain. Through the control of the spirit control beads, the monster The beast's cultivation level will be reduced a lot. He glanced at Zhang Awei lightly and asked, "Are you going to Yueshang Market?"

"Yue Shang Ji? What is it?" Zhang was afraid he didn't understand.

The middle-aged man was too lazy to answer the question, and sensed that there were low-level disciples rushing towards him, so he said casually: "Nothing, let's go." He picked up the silver spear, stood on it, and fled to the west.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Ping also noticed that a disciple in the Qi Refining Stage was running towards him, and he was really excited. The puppy only barked a few times, but it actually provoked so many greedy people.

Not long after, a young man appeared on the road and ran towards Zhang Awei. He was stunned when he saw Zhang Awei. He hesitated and continued running. He came closer and clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, senior."

Being called senior by others, Zhang Awei thought for a moment before reacting, and smiled secretly: "The identity has changed quickly enough." He replied: "What's the matter, fellow Taoist?" The young man asked cautiously: "Senior, have you seen any monsters when you arrived? ?”

Zhang Ai sighed secretly, the human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant. As a Qi refining disciple, even if he saw a monster, he should run for his life, but he made Zhihuan make the wrong move and said lightly: "No, I didn't see you." He walked away.

The young man was indifferent to Zhang Wei's indifference, and walked a few steps to follow him and continued: "It's a pity that I came late, otherwise I would have caught the monster and signed a spiritual contract, and there will be many helpers in the future; even if I can't sign the psychological contract, , even to kill it, the demon pill is also very useful."

Zhang Wen was too lazy to pay attention to him. He walked forward in silence as a ignorant man.

But the young man kept chattering: "Senior, are you from Tianlei Mountain? I recognize these clothes, but I don't know which immortal master I am a disciple of? I am the king of Xianyun Valley, and my father is the deputy valley master Wang Hezun. What is your senior's name?"

He knew in Xianyun Valley that there was a medium-sized neutral sect in the world of Yue Kingdom’s cultivation. It never participated in the battle between good and evil, and only sought to improve its cultivation. Zhang Wear casually said: "Zhang Wear."

"Senior Brother Zhang, are you going to Yueshangji too?" Wang Miao had so many questions.

Yueshangji? The second person mentioned this today. Zhang Ain asked: "What is Yueshangji?"

"You don't know?" Wang Miao was a little surprised.

"Should I know?" Zhang was afraid that he didn't understand either.

Wang Miao explained to him that the Yue Shangji was a trading conference spontaneously organized by the Yue Kingdom's cultivating circles and was held every year in late autumn. The location is fixed at the junction of Pingcheng and Wangcheng, where there are three major refining sects of the Yue Kingdom, Lingshan Gate for alchemy, Wanfa Sect for talisman refining, and Bailian Valley for casting tools. The three major sects have a solid foundation for thousands of years. The devil has attacked several times, but they have always failed.

Speaking of which, the land used as a place of cultivation is really average, far inferior to Tianlei Mountain. Cultivators attach great importance to aura, and when establishing sects and sects, they often choose places rich in aura. However, these three major sects are unique in that they choose a mountain range with a general aura to rule by dividing the mountains. Therefore, although the demonic path suffered a lot here, it did not intend to use all its strength and blood to attack. Who is willing to do something that harms others but does not benefit oneself?

Because of their special cultivation methods, the three major sects have produced many medicinal medicinal weapons, which are quite attractive to immortal cultivators, and there are always people who want to exchange them. Slowly forming a scale, just like a market, the three major sects decided after discussion to set aside an area and open the market in late autumn every year to facilitate everyone's transactions. Later, the demons were very jealous. They also wanted to get the elixirs and treasures, and also wanted to upgrade. Therefore, the major sects of Demon Dao, Gui Sect, Yin Luofu and the three major sects reached an agreement, and the demons could also participate in the transaction. In return, The devil will never attack this place.

This is the origin of Yueshang Ji. In order to ensure the long-term existence of Yueshang Ji, the good and evil factions jointly issued a ban. Fighting is not allowed within a thousand miles of Yueshang Ji. Anyone who violates the regulations will be killed by both factions.

After learning about it, Zhang Ping asked Wang Miao: "Do you want to go?"

Wang Miao patted his chest: "Of course, once I have reached the top level in my Qi cultivation, I will definitely come and see the world. If I am lucky enough to find an advanced pill, I will have a chance to become a foundation-building master."

"Advanced pills? Do you have a lot of spirit stones?" Zhang Weijing knows how valuable advanced pills are. Even the low-level pills from the top level of the Qi refining stage to the early stage of the foundation stage cost at least several thousand spirit stones. If replaced by With gold, Old Man Li's family will immediately become a wealthy family.

Wang Miao was a little flustered when he heard this, and said: "There are not many spiritual stones, I mean if, if I get the advanced pill."

Zhang Wen smiled, knowing that Wang Miao was worried about killing people and taking wealth, so he didn't tell him, and asked him: "How to get to Yueshang Market?"

"After passing this county town, follow the road straight to Pingcheng, then go northwest out of the city, and you will be there soon when you see the grassland." After Wang Miao explained, he added: "Brother Zhang, why don't you and I go together, and we will have someone to look after us on the way."

Zhang Awei thought for a moment and agreed: "Okay, when will we set off?"

"Of course, the earlier the better. If you go early, there will be fewer people, so you might be able to find some good treasures." Wang Miao was very excited.

So, the two went hand in hand. They were all immortal cultivators and traveled very fast. They arrived at the grassland in less than three days. Looking up, I saw blue sky, white clouds and green grass, which looked very similar to the boundless grassland. Zhang Ain secretly said: "I am quite attached to the grassland."

When they arrived on the grassland, Wang Miao let out a long sigh, looked very relaxed, and said to Zhang Ain: "To the north of Yueshangji are the three major sects, and there are grasslands within a thousand miles of the east, west, and south. Even if there is great hatred on the grassland, we can't Start killing."

Zhang Ai nodded. His cultivation level was much higher than that of Wang Miao, and he had long sensed that many people were gathering in the distance. The two continued to move forward, and other immortal cultivators began to appear on the road. Most of them glanced at them coldly and went on their way. Zhang was afraid of sighing. They all said that immortal cultivators lack human touch, and it was true. After traveling for hundreds of miles, more and more cultivators began to appear around, and tent houses began to appear. Walking further in, there were rows of pavilion seats, stalls and shelves, and finally we arrived at Yueshang Market.

Wang Miao asked him: "Would you like to find a place to live first? There are hotels and restaurants here." "What do you want a restaurant for? Isn't it possible to live without food?" Zhang Ping was puzzled. Wang Miao smiled and said: "What's so strange about the restaurant? There's also a brothel. Most of the worldly things are available here. There's also a casino. Would you like to try your luck, Senior Brother Zhang?"

"Immortal cultivators gamble? How do you gamble? Everyone can use magic. Who is more powerful?" This place is really magical.

Wang Miao curled his lips and said: "Who knows, I've never been there. I heard that there is an artifact that can block any spell. There are six dice in it. After rolling it, guess the number. There is a limit of bets for more than six and less than thirty-six. Betting on spiritual stones, the odds are different depending on the points.”

Zhang Yin smiled and said: "This is fun." Wang Miao still had a disapproving expression: "What's so fun? It's very boring." Thinking of something, he hesitated and said: "Senior brother, do you want to stay in the hotel? I'm going to find my fellow disciples. I’ll come look for you later; if Senior Brother Zhang doesn’t stay at the store, come with me to find a fellow shopper. The Yue Shangji will be open for two months, so we can take our time shopping later.” Dare you stay in a hotel with a total of thirteen spiritual stones? with him? Forget it, Zhang Ain replied: "Thank you for your kindness. You go find a fellow disciple and I'll wander around. I may not be able to stay for long." Wang Miao thought for a while and said, "Well, you go around the market first. "Turn, don't go too far. No matter whether I can find a fellow disciple, I will come to find you." Zhang Zhen didn't care and said casually: "That's fine."
