The day before the secret realm opened, Hu Qing met Manager Jiang by chance.
Manager Jiang was frightened: "What are you doing here?" He looked around but saw no one from Chaohua Sect.
Hu Qing smiled and said, "It'll give me some experience." She pointed to somewhere: "Here, the leader is over there. My daughter was taken to another place and I can't follow her, so I'm just waiting here."
Manager Jiang understood himself and said: "This secret realm is not as good as those controlled by the ten major sects."
Hu Qing changed the subject: "Why did you come to collect the medicine in person? Even if there are high-level spiritual plants in the secret realm, a Qi-refining monk must have the strength to bring them out."
The secret realm is not just for anyone to pick. Although there are no people in it, there are monsters and beasts. The high-level spiritual plants are protected by monsters.
Manager Jiang: “I hope to receive the Spirit Gathering Fruit.”
Hu Qing: "Still that big order? Haven't you bought it yet?"
Manager Jiang shook his head: "I told you earlier, you have to try your luck with the Spirit-Judging Fruit." He then lowered his voice and gossiped with her: "The reward is even more expensive. You said it was such a beautiful little mortal girl who charmed a big shot who was used to seeing female cultivators.
It’s like this.”
Hu Qing couldn't imagine it: "We ordinary people don't dare to dream." He teased him: "Why do you always worry about what people look like? I didn't expect that Manager Jiang is actually a covetous person."
Manager Jiang blushed and coughed: "Purely out of curiosity, out of curiosity." He quickly glanced around and said in a low voice that was almost inaudible: "Inside information, that woman is also involved with the demon and demon clans."
ha?
For a moment, Hu Qing wondered if he had slipped into some overbearing demon lord, demon lord, demon lord, immortal lord, all love me, and listened to the next sentence of Manager Jiang.
"It is said that the woman's life experience is somewhat mysterious, and some people say that she has a special constitution. In short, she is profitable."
This is the right thing to do. For some reason, a mortal who was not looked down upon by any of the three tribes was elevated to the top. Without any stake in it, the world collapsed.
Hu Qing said: "Trouble with your physique."
Manager Jiang gave her a look of approval: "We are just doing business."
If it's troublesome, let's stay away.
Hu Qing: "I wish you success in receiving the Spirit Gathering Fruit."
Manager Jiang asked her what she had gained.
Hu Qing shook his head: "This mountain is very barren. By the way, you collect the shit——"
"No." Manager Jiang interrupted decisively: "Specialized items are collected by specialized personnel. Don't sell that to me."
Hu Qing said angrily: "They are all medicinal materials, so why are they high or low?"
Manager Jiang didn't want to talk to her anymore: "If you are busy, I will be busy too."
There are about a dozen tents erected in Baicao Pavilion, and each tent has a medicine collector. Outside the tents are guarded by monks from Baicao Pavilion. This allows people who come out of the secret realm to sell things with confidence, and also prevents outsiders from prying.
Other merchants also operate in similar ways.
Early the next morning, Hu Qing stood in an inconspicuous place and witnessed what it was like to close the secret realm.
I saw waves of people running out of the secret realm, like locusts. When the time came to close, many people were ejected. Those who were forced to be sent out were not treated so well, and they were all severely beaten.
I fell to the ground and was so painful.
Hu Qing saw some people who were in a mess, some disheveled, some covered in blood, some with knives stuck in their bodies, some who died as soon as they came out, and some who ran to the side and broke through immediately.
There are those who get what they want and are very angry, and there are those who are frustrated and curse and curse.
All living beings are inseparable from joy, anger, sorrow and joy.
At this time, there is no difference between monks and ordinary people.
Between the two mountains, the light fog suddenly thickened and then dissipated, and the secret realm disappeared under the sunlight.
After half an hour of chaos, everyone calmed down and started doing what they should do.
Those who can survive will basically gain something, keep what they need, sell what they don’t need, and exchange what they need.
The noodle stall owner sells a bowl of noodles for thirty spiritual stones, which makes Hu Qing extremely satisfied.
The market is divided into two sides. On one side, the terrain is high on the hillside, where merchants come to purchase. On the other side, at the bottom of the hillside, everyone finds a place to sell.
Hu Qing didn't need to go up the hillside, he just wandered down the hillside to see what things they put out that could be used for refining weapons. During this walk, he saw people from all ages, from young men in their prime to decrepit old men.
, it can be seen that cultivation is also a career, some people start their business early, and some start their business late, but no matter what, they spend their whole life. The life span of modern people is less than 100 years, and the life span in ancient times was even shorter. But the stars are bright, and how many beautiful people illuminate history, which shows the charm of life.
Meaning and length are not necessarily related.
How should I spend my life?
Hu Qing was in a trance, staring at the world in bewilderment. In such a world, what is the meaning of life? Even if she has too much time, what can she leave behind?
Sadness arose in my heart, and for a moment I left my soul. I was awakened by the stinging pain in my wrist.
Silk cloth is simply angry. You, a little ant, don’t think about how to improve yourself and think about such fatal issues. If a mortal just thought about it, maybe a spark of thought would create some school. You, a monk, are allowed by heaven and earth to cultivate both soul and body. At the same time,
It has also become full of crises. I am not in a state of mind to think about problems that are too far away from myself, and I am looking for death.
At the same time, Juanbu feels proud that he is indeed the person he likes. Throughout the ages, many people, cultivators, immortals, and gods, have sought for themselves, and a few have thought of paying for it themselves. Just like that person said -
Hu Qing touched his right hand: Silk cloth, is that you? Why did you stab me?
There was no movement in the silk cloth, and it fell into darkness because it violated the taboo.
Hu Qing shook his head in confusion, and saw a few stones placed in front of him and stepped forward to take a look.
Bai Qi has eaten all of them and will definitely not eat them again. However, there is a small piece of finger-long stone that looks very hard.
"What is this?" asked the stall owner.
The stall owner, a man in his twenties, simply said: "I don't know, it was dug out of the soil. If you want it, it will be a hundred spiritual stones."
Hu Qing is speechless. You don't even know what you are talking about yet you dare to ask for a high price. Young people are very good at doing business.
She picked up the stone piece, weighed it, and twisted it again, unable to make up her mind.
"Hey, do you want to buy it or not? If not, put it down. I want to see it too." A middle-aged man came over.
Hu Qing put the things on the stall and left without saying a word.
The man was stunned. He didn't expect her to be so happy. He also touched the stone piece and put it down: "What on earth is this."
The stall owner stared at him: "I don't know. But if you hadn't caused trouble, I would have sold her for ten spiritual stones."
"..."
Hu Qing curled her lips in front of her. She didn't have the halo of being a heroine. If she picked a stone, it would be a treasure. Even if no one snatched it from her, she wouldn't buy it. She thought her spiritual stone would be good, so of course she had to be sure of it.
For example, a piece of azure Tang stone is good, but unfortunately it is a little small, as big as a fist. There is no need to sell it to merchants, so it is placed on the stall.
Hu Qing asked about the price, and the stall asked for a thousand low-grade spiritual stones, or he could exchange them for the inner elixir of a second-level monster.
Hu Qing talked about where to find the inner elixir, and spent five hundred spirit stones and several bottles of elixirs in exchange for it.
After putting away the Tang stone, I planned to feed it to Bai Qi next time, and saw a complete salamander skin on a stall.
