Brother Zhang stayed here for two days and found that the alchemy system here is the elixir system. It has some effects, but the taste is too different from the dishes, and Brother Zhang’s needs are right there.
, there is no need for such high-strength items, otherwise he might as well go directly to the group to buy some elixirs when he comes here. Is it possible that they can have better things produced by Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace?
Fortunately, the basic currency system of the 373 world is still gold, silver, and copper. For Brother Zhang, rubbing gold by hand is not a big problem, so he bought some souvenirs, and then went straight to where Long Xixiang was.
went.
The Sumatra volcanoes, this place is now a forbidden land for humans. It is precisely because there are many volcanoes here that it is very suitable for the growth of dragon's breath. Some powerful creatures dominate the mountains and become kings. These things are actually monsters, but
The humans in this world are not very up to date and do not meet the basic requirements of the terrifying erect ape, so these monsters rarely mix among them in human form.
However, these things are also intelligent creatures after all, and they also have various needs. Therefore, after the rise of humans in the past two thousand years, they have gradually begun to do some business with humans. So doing business cannot always rely on violence.
They naturally evolved their own trading model.
The climate and environment of the Sumatra Islands are very suitable for these monsters to live together, and they have their own social model. Brother Zhang even saw human ships docking at the simple port and interacting with these monsters.
The island's indigenous people traded.
When a human like him appears here, it is not particularly out of the ordinary. There is already a simple market on the island, where many people from different regions do business with demon spirits, and there are many demon spirits.
Some of the human postures kept their original postures. Little Brother Zhang even saw a red-haired monkey squatting in front of a pile of wild fruits and waving to everyone passing by.
However, because this place has no formal supervision system, it is like a lawless place. Many criminals who are extremely vicious in the human world will abscond here and join forces with some monsters to wait for opportunities to rip off fellow human beings.
Brother Zhang is carrying a bag and wearing a T-shirt. He looks like a rookie from a foreign country. In addition, he uses gold to buy things. Isn’t this a classic fat sheep? So when Brother Zhang enters this set
I was targeted when I was in the market.
But the moment they focused their attention on Brother Zhang, he already knew their plan, but he didn't care and just continued to search for interesting things in this interesting little market.
Because this place is rich in evil spirits, many local fruits and plants have mutated due to the effect of evil spirits. For example, some common tropical fruits have become completely different here, such as the most common dragon fruit.
, Brother Zhang has seen yellow ones, red ones, and white ones, but here is one that looks very much like a dragon fruit, but the outer skin is blue-green and the inside is purple.
This is a fruit sold by an orangutan. When Brother Zhang was watching, he indicated in sign language that he could try it. So Brother Zhang picked one up and ate it without any courtesy. How can I describe the taste...
For example, the lychee looks like a dragon fruit. The flesh is not soft and glutinous, but full of juice and has moderate sweetness and sourness. The taste of the lychee is also mixed with the taste of mango. In short, it is a very strange fruit.
Brother Zhang directly reached out and tapped the orangutan's hand, and then asked: "Can I plant this myself?"
The orangutan looked at Brother Zhang with a very complicated expression, because its brain probably couldn't understand why a human could speak the language of their race, let alone how to communicate spiritually.
However, it quickly responded to Brother Zhang, saying that these fruits cannot be grown because they grow on the shells of giant turtles. Their tribe has also tried to grow them, but they have failed.
Brother Zhang was a little disappointed, but he still bought some. The orangutan took a piece of gold the size of his thumb. After confirming that it was real gold, he asked Brother Zhang to help him look at the stall while he looked for change.
Then... the orangutan never came back. A lizard sitting next to him selling insect eggs told Brother Zhang that he might have been cheated, because all the fruits the monkey had together were not worth half the price of the piece of gold.
.
Little Brother Zhang smiled, then squatted on the ground and threw all the fruits into his backpack. The lizard next to him looked at him like this, because the lizard brother was also very curious about how the human in front of him used such a small bag.
That big pile of fruit was all packed into it.
In the end, Little Brother Zhang really put all the fruits in, but his bag didn't change at all. It was the same as it was when he arrived. Brother Lizard was so surprised that he stretched out his long neck and looked at Little Zhang.
Brother: "Would you like some delicious food?"
Brother Zhang saw his stall, then smiled and waved his hand. Brother Lizard thought it was because he was not used to it, so he handed an insect egg to Brother Zhang and showed him how to bite it.
look.
At this time, Brother Zhang could not refuse the kindness. He took the white insect egg, which was about the size of a Fengyoujing bottle, and imitated the lizard brother. He put it in his mouth and bit it, and then he felt an indescribable feeling.
The fresh aroma poured into his mouth. He frowned and tasted the taste carefully. He found that the texture of this thick paste was a bit like steamed taro, and the taste was like whitebait soup with some seaweed.
A little fishy.
At this time, the lizard brother took another small fruit and handed it to him, and then he also took one and threw it into his mouth. Little Brother Zhang followed suit, and when he took a bite, the fruit burst into pulp in his mouth, which tasted like pulp.
It has a strong smell of wine, a sour and fruity aroma of wild fruits, and a strong spicy taste like mustard, combined with some greasy insect eggs, it goes straight to the head.
Brother Zhang patted his forehead, then pointed at the insect eggs and fruits, saying that he wanted some too.
Brother Lizard was obviously much kinder in business than the orangutan. After he accepted Brother Zhang's little gold nugget, he not only gave him a lot of things he wanted, but also bit off part of the gold with his teeth and gave it back to Brother Zhang
.
At this time, the news that Brother Zhang used pure gold to trade spread throughout the market for some reason. Both demons and people inside began to try their best to sell their products to Brother Zhang. And Brother Zhang is also a shopaholic.
, although his purpose was to come here for the most expensive dragon breath incense, he did not buy less of these interesting specialties. Many times, he even bought them without looking at the varieties.
Just be happy and that's it.
In the evening, the people in the market slowly dispersed. Brother Zhang was sitting in a simple shed. This was a fried rice shop run by humans. The man who fried rice seemed to be an Indian. He used ingredients from the island to make the rice.
The ingredients have strong local characteristics. For example, the bowl of rice in front of Brother Zhang is fried with special local rice and the eggs of a kind of flying ant, plus strange fruits.
The spice smell is very strong, but it is not unpalatable. Especially when the ant eggs explode in the mouth, the special taste and fragrance are quite addictive. Moreover, there is a disgusting-looking drink sold here.
The boss uses a strange bark as raw material. He tears the bark and rubs it repeatedly in the water. When white foam appears on the water, the boss will add a fishy seaweed juice into it, and then
When you put it in the basin, bubbles will bubble up. When the bubbles stop, the liquid will turn pink.
At this time, the boss will pour the pink liquid into a bowl made of coconut shells, add a blue wild fruit that exudes lemon flavor, and then the pink juice will instantly turn into a pale purple.
…
Brother Zhang couldn't open his mouth when faced with such a bad drink, even if he was a guardian, and the boss gave him a thumbs up with a simple face and made a drinking gesture.
"I'm willing to give it all..." Brother Zhang looked at the purple drink in the coconut shell: "It's clean and hygienic, brothers..."
After saying that, he took a sip, and after drinking it, he was suddenly shocked, because the taste of this ghost thing was surprisingly good. After entering the mouth, there was an aloe taste at first, but soon it was slightly sour and...
After the sweetness, there will be an incomparable cooling feeling traveling down the esophagus to the stomach. It can even make people feel that the air they breathe is cold. After Xiao Zhang fully opens his senses, he can even feel it with one breath.
And got goosebumps all over my body.
Brother Zhang asked about the ingredients of this drink, but the boss didn't tell me... I guess it must be a secret recipe. But I have to say, this thing is really interesting, and the refreshing feeling makes the nasal cavity clear.
After a light meal, night has arrived. There are no hotels or inns in this place at night. People passing by must either go back to their boats or find a place to pitch their tents.
Most people would still choose to return to the heavily guarded ship, because in this wild place, it is really dangerous, because no one knows whether those honest street stall owners during the day will turn into evil spirits who kill people and seize treasures at night.
Brother Zhang was afraid of his hammer. He didn't need to sleep anyway, so he just found a tree branch and sat on it. Then he started to record what he bought today, and when he was making the list, he had already
I feel someone approaching quickly.
Faced with this situation, Brother Zhang didn't even raise his head. He just pulled his fingers to the side. Those who were approaching him quickly among the trees lost their balance and fell heavily to the ground.
And then, no matter how hard they struggled, they would fall down again, as if there were pulleys under their feet. Some of them wanted to fly, but after a slight movement, they flew directly up to three thousand meters away.
