"I can't do it anymore. I'm almost exhausted. I really can't walk..."
Su Xiaoxiao, a female classmate, suddenly sat on the ground and said nothing to get up.
Although the small team formed by Mo Zixuan is all composed of Qi-training practitioners, there is no ordinary person.
But except for Mo Zixuan, who is a practitioner in the late stage of Qi training, the others have just started practicing Qi sensing, and have not yet fully understood the use of Qi in the body.
This day and night of rapid marching covered hundreds of miles of mountain roads. After entering the restricted area, the terrain became even more complicated. The mountains seemed to be much higher than the outside world, and the physical strength of the small team reached its limit.
"Then take a rest."
Mo Zixuan hesitated for a moment. They were now at the edge of the restricted area. This area had been searched by countless cultivators for a long time, and usually nothing good could be found.
"Long live Teacher Mo!"
As soon as Mo Zixuan finished speaking, several people who had been standing just now fell to the ground in a state of confusion. Girls who were usually dignified and virtuous also lost their image at this moment.
Su Xiaofan, on the other hand, couldn't see anything strange at the moment. As for Duobao, as soon as he entered the restricted area, he didn't know where he went.
"Don't lie down, sit down and exercise your energy. When you are most tired, your true energy will be the most active."
Mo Zixuan helped everyone unpack their backpacks, helped them sit up one by one, and urged them to start practicing.
"If you have Qi training pills, take one."
Su Xiaofan's voice sounded faintly next to him.
After entering the Qi training period, it is difficult to exhaust one's physical strength through ordinary exercise. This is indeed a good opportunity to practice.
However, they cannot refine the energy in the restricted area, so it is best to take pills, otherwise the effectiveness of the practice will be greatly reduced.
After hearing Su Xiaofan's words, the other six people present, except Su Xiaofan and Mo Zixuan, took out a Qi Training Pill from their bodies and swallowed it.
"It's not all given by you, right?"
Su Xiaofan glanced at Mo Zixuan. If this Madonna was such a Holy Mother, he would really have to stay away, because the Holy Mother would usually kill the people around her.
"I don't have that much."
Mo Zixuan looked at Su Xiaofan angrily and said, "I gave it to Zhao Qingyao, others got it by themselves. In fact, even if I didn't give it, Zhao Qingyao could still get the Qi Training Pill."
As the saying goes, snakes have their own paths, and mice have their own paths. Those who can enter the special recruitment class have some skills, and some are even descendants of major sects. Naturally, some Qi training resources are not a problem.
And for a family like Zhao Qingyao, who has some connections in the cultivator world, it is still possible to use money to help them buy some Qi training pills.
"Hey, you are a teacher, why are you so stingy?"
Su Xiaofan chuckled, it was her own business to get Zhao Qingyao. Anyway, Su Xiaofan was repaying Zhao Zhengshan's favor by giving away the Qi Training Pill.
"Su Xiaofan, I will also practice for a while. If you are not tired, help us guard the surroundings..."
Mo Zixuan looked around and said hesitantly, "Where's your tiger cat? I think it's more reliable than you. Call it back."
Mo Zixuan had learned Duobao's prowess. Even if she was promoted to the late stage of Qi training, she could not stop Duobao's claws. This time Duobao followed him into the restricted area, which gave Mo Zixuan a little more confidence.
"Is Duobao more reliable than me?"
Su Xiaofan looked at Mo Zixuan speechlessly. It turned out that in her eyes, he was worse than a cat.
Well, I am a senior and I won’t argue with you. Su Xiaofan whistled, and a moment later, Duobao’s figure appeared next to Su Xiaofan.
Everyone was exhausted, and Mo Zixuan couldn't hold on any longer. When she saw Duobao coming back, she felt relieved and started meditating.
Su Xiaofan could feel that since entering the restricted area, there seemed to be eyes peering at them around them, but these eyes were not malicious, and Su Xiaofan ignored them.
Su Xiaofan smiled, and Duobao sat beside everyone, but they just happened to protect them all.
At this moment, Duobao and Su Xiaofan were also practicing, and the energy in the restricted area continued to overflow into their bodies.
Su Xiaofan still needs to refine the energy and convert it into true essence, but Duobao is like a bottomless pit, sweeping away the energy within tens of meters around him, making Su Xiaofan have to stay away from it.
As a result, the people practicing in the field unexpectedly had energy seeping through the magic weapon and being inhaled by them, and their recovery speed suddenly became faster.
After about four or five hours, the practitioners gradually woke up and turned around, but at this time they were hungry, so they took out the food they had brought with them and began to eat.
"They are really monkeys."
Just after those people took out the food, Su Xiaofan suddenly noticed that there were more and more eyes spying on them. Fifty or sixty macaques silently surrounded them from the surrounding trees.
"Zhizhi..."
A bold monkey jumped down from the tree, swaggered up to Su Xiaoxiao, took out an apple from her pocket on the ground and started to chew it.
"Ah? Steal my things?" Su Xiaoxiao was stunned at first, then got angry, and raised his foot to kick the monkey.
"Don't……"
Su Xiaofan swayed and held down his sister. This girl was angry and didn't care about the situation. This was the monkey's home court.
Although none of the monkeys coming now are extraordinary creatures, there are so many of them. Forty or fifty monkeys surrounded these six or seven people, but Mo Zixuan and the others couldn't defeat them.
At this time, more monkeys jumped down from the trees, rummaged around for food without any politeness at all, and started eating in a big way.
Even Su Xiaofan's backpack couldn't escape and was opened by five or six monkeys.
The monkeys in Qingcheng are good at recognizing goods. When they saw those things, they immediately let out a sharp scream, and the forty or fifty monkeys around them swarmed up and snatched everything in Su Xiaofan's backpack in a matter of seconds.
"Grandma, isn't it a deal? This is an open robbery..."
Su Xiaofan looked at the behavior of these monkeys with some amusement. At this moment, his energy had converged in his body and he looked like an ordinary person. Naturally, the monkeys were not afraid of him.
"The monkeys in Emei Qingcheng are probably used to stealing food from guests."
Mo Zixuan couldn't help but laugh when she saw Su Xiaofan's depressed look, "This is a matter of agreement. Seniors in the foundation building stage won't say anything when they come in."
"Fellow Taoist, you are not very particular about what you do."
Su Xiaofan suddenly looked in a direction and said, "I brought this food in, but I want to trade with you. How can I trade if it's all robbed?"
While Su Xiaofan was speaking, Duobao suddenly came to Su Xiaofan's side, lowered his body, looked at where Su Xiaofan was speaking, and let out a threatening growl.
"Jing Jing, you can't beat it, what's the use of threatening it?" Su Xiaofan patted Duobao's dog and calmed it down.
At the same time, the monkeys who were looking for food also retreated and stood outside the crowd.
A monkey about one meter tall appeared in the venue. What was shocking was that this monkey was actually wearing human clothes, and it was also women's clothes.
"Su... Su Xiaofan, don't, don't make a sound..."
As soon as the clothed monkey appeared, a huge supernatural pressure enveloped the entire venue, and Mo Zixuan, who was in the late stage of Qi training, became stumbling when he spoke.
"It's a fair deal, what do fellow Taoists think?"
Su Xiaofan spread his hands speechlessly. Since the other person was wearing clothes, he was feeling ashamed.
The feeling of shame is unique to human beings, which means that the other person is human and should be reasonable.
“Food is not part of the deal!”
A voice suddenly sounded in Su Xiaofan's mind, which immediately made him surprised, and he looked at the extraordinary monkey.
"Our clan can freely eat any food brought into the restricted area!"
The monkey sent another message of consciousness to Su Xiaofan, which made Su Xiaofan a little confused.
"Can you speak?" Su Xiaofan also used his spiritual consciousness to pass the message.
"No, speaking requires refining the bones in the throat. I'm still a little behind."
The monkey shook his head and said through the message: "Our ancestor can do it, but do you want to go see our ancestor?"
"Can you really talk?"
Su Xiaofan just tried to ask, but unexpectedly got a positive answer, and was shocked in his heart.
It seems that the extraordinary beings in the Qingcheng Forbidden Zone can no longer be viewed as simple creatures. They are now also an intelligent group, perhaps not inferior to humans.
"If you can speak, the ancestor of the cat and panda tribe can also speak!" The monkey on the opposite side threw another bombshell.
"What stage of evolution do you need to reach to refine Henggu?"
Su Xiaofan wanted to get more information and understand the evolutionary system of extraordinary creatures.
"Humph, why should I tell you? You humans like to ask questions."
The monkey raised his head arrogantly, "Are you going to see the ancestor? If not, then we can trade, but I have to choose what they bring first..."
Looking at the place pointed by the extraordinary monkey, Su Xiaofan couldn't help crying or laughing. Those were beautiful clothes bought by Su Xiaoxiao and Zhao Qingyao.
"Grandma, I never thought clothes could be used as trading items."
Su Xiaofan felt a little depressed. He had made a mistake this time. Who knew the monkeys in the restricted area loved beauty? He would have known that he had bought some cosmetics.
"You guys deal first, I won't go see your ancestor for the time being..."
Su Xiaofan pointed to the tiger cat next to him and said, "The other tiger cat evolves here, is there no problem?"
"Okay, your tiger cat is about to evolve."
The monkey nodded and said: "But after evolving, you must exit the restricted area, otherwise the ancestor will be angry."
"Okay, let's exit after it evolves." Su Xiaofan nodded, allowing Duobao to evolve, and this trip to the restricted area will be worthwhile.
"Mo Zixuan, you can trade now. Senior Monkey, please put aside the pressure..."
Su Xiaofan said to Mo Zixuan: "Let the senior monkey choose your clothes first, and he will come up with something to exchange with you."
"Ah? How do you know?"
After the extraordinary monkey withdrew its pressure, everyone suddenly felt their bodies lighten up, and the feeling of being out of breath just now disappeared.
"Of course Senior Monkey told me."
Su Xiaofan waved his hand impatiently. His friend bought several thousand yuan worth of food, but when he came in, he turned out to be a tribute. Su Xiaofan was feeling depressed.
"That...okay then."
Mo Zixuan looked at the jittery people around him and suddenly felt that although Su Xiaofan's cultivation was not very good, he was unusually courageous.
Seeing that the monkeys around them had no intention of attacking them, Su Xiaoxiao and the others came to their senses and took out the clothes from their bags.
To say that women are really good at business, Zhao Qingyao actually brought a removable shelf, raised the shelf, and hung pieces of clothing on it.
These women were very considerate. The clothes they bought were basically children's clothes. As soon as they took out some beautiful princess dresses, they attracted the attention of the extraordinary monkey.
Walking to the shelf with great swagger, the extraordinary monkey put away all the more than ten princess dresses and looked at Su Xiaofan.
"Don't look at me, you make a deal with them, you can talk about it yourself."
Su Xiaofan waved his hand. If he didn't need to protect his sister, he would have wanted to take Duobao to practice now.
"I will give you a seven-color mushroom in exchange for these clothes. Are you willing to do so?"
The extraordinary monkey had a Ganoderma lucidum with seven colors in his hand, which transmitted the message to Mo Zixuan's spiritual consciousness.
"Ah? You...you can talk?"
Mo Zixuan's attention was not focused on the seven-color mushroom at all, but looked at the monkey in shock.
Language is a unique way of communication for human beings. Maybe other creatures also have it, but it will definitely not have such a mature system. Therefore, the sound transmission of extraordinary creatures really shocked Mo Zixuan.
"It's just a sound transmission from the divine consciousness. What a fuss. Do you want to change it?"
The extraordinary monkey is a little impatient. Human beings are so ignorant and make such a big fuss over the smallest things.
"me……"
Mo Zixuan has not yet woken up from the shock of the extraordinary monkey's words, and she does not know what Qisezhi is or how valuable it is.
"You're so stupid, change it quickly!"
Su Xiaofan shook his head at the side. Didn't he say that Mo Zixuan's IQ was so high? Why was he starting to get confused now?
Even Su Xiaofan was a little envious of the Seven-Colored Zhizhi. It could definitely be used to refine the foundation-building elixir. Even if it was eaten directly, it would probably increase Su Xiaofan's true energy a lot.
"Ah? Change, senior, I've changed!"
Hearing Su Xiaofan's words, Mo Zixuan immediately reacted.
How much do these dozen pieces of children's clothing cost? The total cost is less than 2,000 yuan. No matter what the quality of the Qisezhi is, exchanging it is a profitable transaction.
"Qingyao, Xiaoxiao, let's change it first. Let's exchange the things for achievement points and then divide them."
These clothes did not belong to Mo Zixuan alone. Zhao Qingyao and Su Xiaoxiao both had several pieces, so it was considered a transaction between the three of them.
Mo Zixuan carefully took the seven-color mushroom, took out a jade box from his backpack, and put the seven-color mushroom inside.
This kind of jade box can lock the power of the elixir and keep the elixir fresh for a period of time after leaving the soil. Many of the people who came in brought a lot of them.
"Are there any more beautiful clothes like this?"
The extraordinary monkey looked at Mo Zixuan. Although there were many people coming to the restricted area to trade, very few of them brought clothes, especially such beautiful clothes.
"there is none left."
Mo Zixuan rummaged through her backpack and said with some regret, how could she have known that princess skirts would be so popular.
After calming down, Mo Zixuan finally realized that even the ordinary monkeys in the venue were looking at the princess dress with burning eyes, but they just didn't dare to compete with the extraordinary monkeys.
"These are also very beautiful."
Su Xiaoxiao and Zhao Qingyao also reacted at this moment, took out some beautiful girls' clothes, and hung them on the shelves one by one.
"We also have clothes, senior, please take a look."
The other people saw a few dresses and exchanged them for an elixir. They couldn't hold back anymore and took out the things in their backpacks one after another.
"Grandma, why didn't I think of it?"
Su Xiaofan discovered that almost every student who came in had some clothes in their belongings. The six of them added up to three or four hundred items.
"This, this, and this, I want them all!"
Naturally, the extraordinary monkey chose first. After ordering a dozen more items, he took out a fiery red fruit.
"Tianling fruit?"
This time Mo Zixuan recognized it and blurted out: "Senior, change, we have changed."
"The old rule is, everyone remembers how many pieces of clothing they have been exchanged for, and we will settle the accounts when we get out."
Mo Zixuan briefly communicated with those classmates and took the Tianling Fruit.
"Grandma, I'm so angry!"
The corners of Su Xiaofan's mouth were twitching. That day, he had laughed at his sister and the others for buying clothes. Unexpectedly, he was the stupidest person.
"Come, let me give you a piece of clothing."
Seeing that the monkeys would not attack her, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly became more courageous. She pulled a slightly larger monkey over and put her clothes on it.
"It looks good, look at it, how beautiful it is, right?"
The first monkey model in the Qingcheng restricted area was born under the hands of Su Xiaoxiao.
Not to mention, the monkey who put on the clothes immediately felt taller. The monkey also made many poses, which made the monkeys look at it with heated eyes.
Perhaps they are used to trading with humans, but these monkeys also abide by the rules and come up one by one to choose the clothes and items they like according to their status in the monkey group.
In fact, when monkeys trade with humans, they are just a matter of taste. If the extraordinary monkeys hadn't been wary of Su Xiaofan today, they might have gotten those clothes in vain, and the monkeys under them wouldn't have behaved like this.
The items used by these monkeys to trade are basically elixirs, but the quality of the elixirs is much worse than those produced by extraordinary monkeys.
However, Mo Zixuan and the others were already satisfied. As long as the elixir in front of them could not be bought with money, they just exchanged it for some clothes, so they took advantage of it.
"Aren't you going to see my ancestor for me?"
The extraordinary monkey asked Su Xiaofan again. In the past, all the extraordinary humans who came into the restricted area wanted to meet the ancestor. Of course, not everyone could meet the ancestor.
"No, I'll let it advance first."
Su Xiaofan was feeling depressed at the moment, so he simply took Duobao a few dozen meters away to practice, out of sight and out of mind, so as not to see those elixirs that made him jealous and want to snatch them away.
"Don't start a fight."
The extraordinary monkey warned Su Xiaofan, took the clothes he had changed into and disappeared. I wonder if he went back to his lair to change his clothes.
Su Xiaofan stayed by Duobao's side, and one person and one cat began to practice. The time to enter the restricted area was limited this time, and Su Xiaofan tried to make Duobao evolve into an extraordinary creature.
"Huh? Here comes another extraordinary monkey?" Suddenly, Su Xiaofan opened his eyes and looked at a monkey in the field.
Like the previous female extraordinary monkey, this monkey also came wearing clothes, but it was a male monkey.
As soon as the extraordinary male monkey arrived, the ordinary monkeys who were trading could only stop. The sense of hierarchy in their group was still very strong.
The male monkey selected more than ten pieces of clothing and threw out a palm-sized gourd. Mo Zixuan opened the lid and smelled it. The aroma of wine filled her heart and lungs, which made her shake for a moment and almost made her drunk.
On the spot.
"What the hell, Monkey Wine?" Su Xiaofan couldn't care less about being reserved now. He remembered that besides food, there seemed to be something else in his backpack.
"Are you Chaofan who accompanied them in?"
The monkey looked at Su Xiaofan who was approaching with some vigilance. It could feel that the other party could threaten it.
"Yes, senior, I also have something to exchange with you."
Su Xiaofan picked up his backpack, threw all the food to the monkeys, and then found a clipper from inside.
That's right, it's the clipper that Su Xiaofan used to get haircuts in the countryside when he was a child.
He hadn't seen this kind of manual clipper in more than ten years, so he saw it in the supermarket last time and threw it into the shopping cart.
Electric items cannot be used in the restricted area, but this clipper should be able to be used. This is the only item Su Xiaofan thought of that he could use in exchange.
"What is this?" Seeing Su Xiaofan tear open the package and reveal the clipper inside, the monkey asked in confusion.
"This is an artifact, very powerful."
Su Xiaofan pulled a monkey over and, ignoring its grinning teeth, pushed it on its head with a clipper.
With Su Xiaofan's current level of cultivation, it was no problem to play with a clipper. In just a few breaths, he gave the monkey a hairstyle.
The typical mohawk hairstyle immediately made the monkey look energetic, and several female monkeys in the field looked at it a little differently.
"How can I exchange this...artifact?"
The extraordinary monkey's eyes also lit up. Since this thing can cut hair, it should also be able to remove hair. Its function is indeed extraordinary and it deserves to be called an artifact.
However, the other party is an extraordinary human being, and the monkey does not dare to rob it and leave. If there is a dispute, it will suffer the consequences when it comes to the ancestor, so it can only deal fairly.
"Monkey wine, the big one!"
Su Xiaofan pointed at the small gourd in Mo Zixuan's hand, and then made a big gesture with both hands. He didn't know if there was a gourd as big as the two hands could hold it to the limit.
"Okay, you wait!"
The extraordinary monkey hesitated for a moment, looked at the clipper again, finally nodded, and quickly retreated into the forest.
"Su Xiaofan, you are really good at deceiving!"
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes widened when she saw that the clipper her brother took out could actually make the extraordinary monkey trade.
"Shut up, don't talk, this is a magical weapon."
Su Xiaofan glared at his sister. If the monkey heard that he refused to trade, he would have to beat up even his own sister.
The extraordinary monkey didn't say anything, and the group of monkeys didn't dare to continue trading. After waiting for more than ten minutes, the extraordinary male monkey finally came back.
In the hands of the extraordinary male monkey, there was indeed a big gourd. Although it was not as exaggerated as Su Xiaofan's gesture, it was almost one meter high.
"Should I change it?"
The extraordinary male monkey looked at Su Xiaofan. Monkey wine was nothing to him, but the big gourd was hard to find. It was already the biggest one in his lair.
"Although it's a little small, forget it, I'll just make friends with you and change it!"
Su Xiaofan made a show of hesitating and then firming up, and only agreed to the exchange after the trick was done.
"What a profiteer!"
Seeing how Su Xiaofan was fooling the extraordinary male monkey, everyone looked at Su Xiaofan with something wrong.
