Two hundred miles to the west from Qianzhu County, there is a hilltop that looks like an old cow lying on the ground. It is named Qingniu Mountain because of the lush forests and green mountains from a distance.
On the tenth day of July, Fang Chang arrived at Qingniu Mountain ahead of schedule.
He thought he would have to work hard to find the market location in Qingniu Mountain, but when he arrived, he discovered that Qingniu Mountain had already been bustling with activity.
Perhaps it was approaching the opening day of the market, but from time to time there would be teams of twos and threes going up the mountain together.
Lone travelers like Fang Chang are in the minority.
Such people are either stupid, or they have unique skills and have confidence in themselves.
Fang Chang didn't want to be high-profile, and he really didn't know the way, so he waited at the foot of the mountain for a while. When he saw someone coming up the mountain again, he hung far behind them.
It almost made the man think he was in trouble, so he walked faster and faster.
Fang Chang followed all the way and cursed in his heart.
Doesn't he look very fierce?
You must know that he even put on makeup specially for this market. His face was sallow and his eyebrows were thick. He looked like an honest man at first glance.
When they reached the mountainside, they saw a layer of white mist blocking the road ahead. The man Fang Chang followed walked straight into the white mist and disappeared.
Fang Chang immediately quickened his pace. When he walked into the white mist, he realized that this was the simplest illusion formation.
When encountering such an illusory formation, you only need to cover your eyes with magic power to see through the reality of the formation.
However, for people who have not developed magic power, such an illusory array is a bit sad, and nine out of ten people will get lost in it.
"This should be considered the simplest screening."
After all, it is a market for cultivators, so there must be some threshold set, otherwise the quality will be seriously compromised.
Fang Chang activated his magic power to cover his eyes, and saw a clear mountain trail spreading out of the fog.
He successfully walked through the path and felt suddenly enlightened.
I saw an archway with the words Qingniufang City standing in front of it. There were gray fog on both sides of the archway, which was obviously a formation.
However, Fang Chang was not interested in trying the power of this formation.
Because there are two golden toad sculptures with wide mouths on the left and right under the archway.
If a person comes out from behind the white mist and wants to enter, he will throw a small piece of gold into the golden toad's mouth, and then the golden toad will spit out a bamboo sign.
“Isn’t this just buying tickets?”
Fang Chang touched his pocket unconsciously.
The biggest windfall he has ever made so far was the forty-five taels of gold he received from the boss of the Wolf Gang.
As a result, he was charged five taels of gold for one ticket.
Fang Chang wants to open a market.
Sure enough, building a platform is the most profitable.
Fang Chang stepped forward, followed the crowd and threw a piece of silver into Jin Toad's mouth.
Then……
"Pooh!"
Jin Chan vomited it out in shame.
"The entry fee is five taels of gold a day."
The golden toad makes a mechanical sound.
Fang Chang picked up the silver without changing his expression and muttered:
"Why are gold and silver confused?"
While talking, he threw a piece of gold into Jin Chan's mouth.
This time, Jin Chan honestly spit out a bamboo sign.
"Please keep the bamboo sign properly."
Fang Chang took the bamboo sign and took a look at it, only to find that there were a few lines of small words written on the back of the sign.
You must return the bamboo sign when you go out. If the bamboo sign is lost, you will be fined double the amount.
Just as Fang Chang was about to enter the city, he saw two bells ringing from behind the archway, and the golden toads on both sides spoke in unison: "Welcome the distinguished guests."
Then I saw the white mist dispersing in the distance, and a bronze chariot falling from the horizon.
Pulling the chariot in front is a lifelike bronze Pegasus.
There is a tall canopy behind. The driver is an old man with gray hair, and in the car stands a young man in white with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes.
The young man in white stands on the chariot, with an air of arrogance and confidence, and a sense of nobility.
Although the old man was a coachman, his momentum was only accidentally dropped, which still made people feel a little breathless.
"Foundation-building monks are groomsmen?"
Fang Chang almost wanted to run away.
Isn't this Qingniufang City a market for casual cultivators? Why did such a noble man just happen to come here?
According to his many years of experience, in general, when a big shot is present, there will be innocent victims in nine cases out of ten.
After all, if someone blows a breath, it may bring disaster to the fish in the pond.
After the bronze chariot entered Fangshi, the coercion in the air slowly dissipated. A casual cultivator later realized:
"I know him, he is Yun Qiankong, the true disciple of Biyun Sect!"
"What, he is Yun Qiankong?"
"Biyun Sect is also a major sect that has become famous in Annan Dao in recent years. The sect leader Biyun Patriarch is a real person in the middle stage of Jindan. The eight true traditions in the sect are all at the foundation building level.
This Yun Qiankong is a true disciple of the Biyun Sect, doesn’t that mean he is also in the Foundation Establishment realm?!”
"But that's not all. I heard that he is only twenty-one years old, and he is already in the middle stage of foundation building. Ancestor Biyun personally said that he is expected to break through to the golden elixir realm before he is thirty."
"There were rumors before that Yun Qiankong's physique was extraordinary. The Annan Jiedushi sent someone to personally go to the Biyun Sect to propose marriage for his daughter, but the ancestor Biyun declined."
"Tsk, tsk, although Annan Jiedushi has dozens of daughters, if he can refuse to be the son-in-law of Jiedushi, he can be regarded as a role model for our generation."
"I heard……"
Everyone was talking a lot.
The square is messy in the wind.
Biyun Sect?
Didn't it mean that his ancestor was just at the peak of foundation building? Why did it rise so fast all of a sudden?
What to do with his spiritual stone veins?
But it’s not surprising if you think about it.
Sitting on the spiritual stone veins, the impact of the spiritual energy environment can be minimized, and there are sufficient spiritual stone supplies. It is not surprising to break through the golden elixir realm in sixteen years.
But with Patriarch Biyun's breakthrough, he was further away from the spirit stone veins.
Suddenly, Fang Chang's ears moved again.
"Yun Qiankong is so powerful, why come to Qingniu Mountain to join in the fun with us miserable casual cultivators?"
"Don't you know? It is said that there is an auction of Foundation Establishment Pills in Qingniufang City this time. You see, it is not as lively as it is now. Many people come here for the Foundation Establishment Pills."
"But hasn't he already established a foundation?"
"He has built a foundation, but what about his fellow disciples and his friends and relatives? Who would dislike him for building a foundation Dando?"
"Hey, that's right. I don't know when I will have the chance to build a foundation."
The person behind sighed, looking deeply shocked.
Fang Chang felt a move in his heart,
Move again,
Then it stopped moving.
With his small arms and legs, it was basically a dream to get a foundation-building pill out of the fire.
Don't say he has no money, but he does have money. He really got the Foundation Establishment Pill at auction, but the other casual cultivators who were eyeing it were enough to kill him ten or eight times.
So he might as well make some small money honestly.
Fang Chang walked forward and felt the bamboo sign in his arms move. The entrance to the archway in front opened like a water curtain, and he entered smoothly.
As soon as he walked in, Fang Chang felt a huge noise coming from his ears.
Looking around, hundreds of stalls are arranged in a grid like a vegetable market.
The flow of people coming and going, the sound of bargaining.
"Even cultivators are not exempt from vulgarity."
Fang Chang calmed down and started shopping with the crowd.
Well, it can be regarded as researching the market.
