The annoying check didn't last long.
Although the goldfish guard has a poor memory, he is responsible enough. After confirming the identities of several guests, he spit out a big bubble and let several people get into the bubble. Then he pushed the bubble into the pond with his tail.
When looking from the outside, the water in the pond is clear and shallow.
But after the bubble fell into the pond, Zheng Qing felt like he was entering a high-speed elevator - outside the transparent bubble wall, light and shadow flashed quickly, including slender fish, oval scallops, horizontal crabs, etc., aquatic creatures
Various magical haloes shimmered on the body, making people dizzy and making them close their eyes.
When Zheng Qing felt the bubbles vibrate and opened his eyes again, he saw a dark blue world in front of him.
It feels like you are in an extremely deep seabed, but when you look up, you can see the brilliant stars in the sky.
This contradictory novel feeling made several young wizards stay where they were for a moment, just raising their necks and admiring the magnificent and magical scenery of nature.
"Quan Ke welcomes you." A big blue-black crab waved its huge pliers, holding two magic bouquets on the pliers. Its voice was like a brush rubbing wood, and it was hoarse and hoarse: "...New arrival.
Guests, please do not stand at the door, as you will block the way of other guests."
Zheng Qing suddenly woke up, grabbed the witch, and left there quickly.
Unlike the pedestrian streets of Huiziji, Sijifang or Beita Town, Quankelai's Wei City is located underwater, which results in it having two very distinctive characteristics - heavy water vapor and dark light.
Although the organizers used a huge bubble-like barrier to isolate the intimate contact between Wei City and the sea water, creating a world full of air so that guests from land can purchase goods in Wei City with peace of mind, this is an aquarium after all.
The world. For the health of aquariums, the humidity in Wei City is particularly high.
Zheng Qing felt like he was spraying water like a whale with every breath he took.
As for the dark light, the fair organizers used a large amount of magic light to replace the natural light, which made up for this shortcoming very well.
Fist-sized luminous pearls are embedded in the surrounding coral trees, shining brightly; luminous octopuses climb freely on the bubble walls, and their whole bodies shed orange or white light depending on the water temperature and mood; and there are streets
In the stone shops on both sides, the shopkeepers lit candles and oil lamps to attract every passing customer.
The oil lamps used by aquatic people are different from those used by terrestrial wizards.
The wizards on the shore like to use precious marine ointments such as whale oil, shark oil, and dragon oil as fuel, while the magical creatures underwater are tit for tat, using equally precious ointments such as lard, monkey oil, and giant oil.
Make fuel.
A crudely made black candle burned hard in the low stone room. The candle flame was bright red, with one or two golden sparks popping out from time to time, and making a slight, beeping, popping sound.
Everyone's face seemed to be covered with a thin black veil, adding a sense of mystery for no reason.
Also different from the noisy market on the ground, the underwater market is more like a legendary ghost market, so quiet that it makes one's heart tremble. Zheng Qing felt that every step they took was like walking deeper into the mud, and the water vapor and
Those who are oppressed by silence cannot breathe.
"It can't be so quiet here forever, right?" He moved his lips slightly and asked his two companions in a mosquito-like voice - and then he saw two businessmen doing it in the ancient way of "pinch their fingers with their sleeves"
trade.
Jiang Yu patted his shoulder comfortingly.
The little fox struggled hard in Zheng Qing's arms, trying to break away from his restraints and go outside to have fun. The young public-funded student had to find a rope to tie it to his wrist to prevent it from sneaking away accidentally.
"Be honest!" the wizard lowered his voice with some annoyance and lectured: "This is not a school...be careful of being caught by people making fox fur coats!"
"It's too small to make a fox fur coat...at most it can be made into a hat." Xiao Xiao corrected her kindly.
These terrifying words finally made Poseidon calm down a little.
Of course, what is more likely to calm it down is the tiny eight-clawed octopus in its paws.
Just passing by a coral tree, Zheng Qing saw this glowing eight-clawed octopus climbing up the branch, so he picked it off and gave it to the little fox as a toy.
The little fox was playing happily, but Mr. Octopus was very annoyed - the light from his head had changed from milky white to bright red, like a pool of flowing lava.
The red light of the magma illuminated the nearest shop, and a piece of fresh green tortoise shell hung on the stone lintel. The slender green hair undulated slowly in the moist air, as if it was still alive.
Zheng Qing poked his head in and took a look. This was a shop specializing in selling turtle shells.
Just at a glance, he saw many distinctive tortoise shells, such as turtles, turtles, mud turtles, old turtles, snapping turtles, tide turtles, leatherback turtles, etc., placed in piles in the store. A tall turtle
The fishman was looking at the large scale in his hand distressedly.
Seeing a guest showing up, a hint of joy suddenly flashed in the fishman's eyes. He threw away the weight in his hand and hissed: "Do you need some tortoise shell? Divination, medicine, carving array, all kinds of categories are complete, priced according to each.
You are a good boy! The cheapest one is a copper!"
The young public-funded student laughed apologetically, then retracted his head with a whoosh.
"Doctor, you can buy some," Zheng Qing glanced at Xiao Xiao, who had been following him, and suggested: "The prices of tortoise shells here are very cheap... Don't you usually like to use tortoise shells when doing divination?"
"Free at home." Xiao Xiao's goatee curled up on his chin, and his answer was extremely concise.
Zheng Qing said "Oh" and his eyes were already attracted to the next store. He looked at everything that was completely different from the ground with strong interest.
A short, shriveled old wizard jumped on his feet and shouted in front of a slender shark: "...It's just robbery! A foot of shark gauze only had three beans and five jiao last year, how can it become five beans this year?"
The shark raised his hand and pointed at a blackboard hanging on the shop floor.
It says, 'Affected by the La Niña phenomenon, the seawater in the eastern ocean has become abnormally cold, and the output of shark fin in 2008-09 has been significantly reduced. This price change has been verified by Quanke, and there is no price gouging or other behavior.'
The shriveled old wizard rolled his eyes and muttered: "Then if I buy more than a hundred feet, can you spare me ten shark beads?"
Shark beads are said to be pearls formed from the tears of sharks. They are widely used in many magic potions and their price is more than double that of ordinary pearls.
Zheng Qing had never seen a customer who was so good at bargaining, and he couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
Just because the sharks don't deal with wizards often, it doesn't mean they are stupid.
"No!" The shopkeeper who was selling croakers finally spoke and refused firmly: "Loss of money!"
Her voice is very clear, as melodious as a bird.
"Nine?"
"Eight...seven at the head office, right?! You spared me five when I bought it last year. It's so expensive this year, so it doesn't matter if you give me two more!"
