Chapter 251 Monster Hunting Town, Entering the Snow Mountain
Ling Feng also nodded secretly. These five people did have their own unique skills and cooperated tacitly. Especially the green wolf's body only had a little red blood on the neck, which was obviously killed by one blow. This young man with a sword only had innate early-stage cultivation, but he could easily
Killing this third-level blue wolf was indeed an impressive feat of swordsmanship!
Immediately, five people from the Wujue Demon Hunting Group passed by them.
Suddenly a group of people holding signs came from the front and started shouting:
"Purchasing monster meat at sky-high prices is an opportunity not to be missed. It will never come back!"
"Purchase monster fur at a high price, first-level monster skin is 50 taels, second-level monster skin is 500 taels! Third-level monster skin is 5,000 taels!"
"Collect demon blood and demon bones at a high price!"
…
Unfortunately, the people from the Wujue Demon Hunting Group turned a blind eye to them and went straight to the shop in front.
Wherever there are shops that specialize in purchasing monster materials, they are all owned by major forces. Their reputation is much better than those people shouting slogans at street stalls. The key is that there will be no scammers.
Afterwards, demon hunting groups returned one after another, and there were very few single demon hunters. Some of these demon hunting groups came back with prey, some came back with injuries, and some were buried forever in the snowy mountains.
At this time, it is already night. At night, the line of sight is blocked, and it is easier to be attacked by monsters, and the chance of survival drops sharply. If you don't come back by night, you will basically die at the mouth of monsters.
Although street stalls have a bad reputation for collecting monster materials, and some of them are dedicated scammers, there are still some vendors who offer affordable prices, which attract some mid- and low-level monster hunters to stop by from time to time, and they can also purchase some monster materials. This way
It is also because small traders do not have much capital, so most of them can only purchase some first- and second-grade mid- and low-grade materials. But as long as they can be transported to other counties, they can sell them at high prices.
For example, this level of monster snow fox fur is very common in the snowy mountains, but it is rare in ordinary counties. Fox fur made from snow fox fur is not only warm, but also extremely gorgeous. It is naturally expensive and very popular among women from aristocratic families.
It is so popular that a piece of fox fur can be sold for thousands of taels.
Ling Feng walked around and found an inn to stay, because it was really not suitable to go into the mountains at night.
However, the room rate in the inn is indeed expensive enough. It costs one tael of silver per night, and this is still an ordinary room. If you want to go to the hotel, it will cost at least five taels of silver per night.
There is a reason why it is so ridiculously expensive.
This was originally just a small village, but because it was close to the Snowy Mountains, monster hunters often stayed here at night.
Later, the imperial court saw business opportunities and established a town here, named Monster Hunting Town. Various shops, inns, restaurants, restaurants, brothels, gambling houses and other industries that purchased monster materials sprang up, turning this small village into a city that never sleeps.
.
Every night, when the demon hunter returns to the town, it is the busiest time of the town, with the lights brightly lit.
Demon hunters have experienced life and death and naturally need to relax, so various restaurants, brothels, and gambling houses are doing booming business.
As a result, almost every inch of land here is at a premium, and things are extremely expensive, so is the rent.
Ling Feng left the inn and headed towards the streets of the town.
Not long after walking, a young man wearing a long blue coarse cloth came towards me, clasping his fists and saying: "This young man, I am the guide of this town, what can I do for you?"
Ling Feng's mental strength was wiped away, and he was just a warrior with a shallow inner strength, so he smiled and said: "I need a guide into the mountain!"
Although he had entered the Snowy Mountains in his previous life, it was a game after all. In the real world, the map would definitely not be the same.
If you have a guide who knows the weather and geography to lead the way, you can undoubtedly shorten the time and find the Ice and Snow Bear and hunt the demon core faster.
"I happen to be quite familiar with the trails in this snow-capped mountain. If you don't mind, sir, I'm willing to help!"
The young man in green shirt suddenly looked happy and said.
He works as a small town guide and occasionally does odd jobs on the side.
And every day, some new people come to this monster hunting town, either becoming vendors or becoming elementary monster hunters.
This is when he makes money. He is familiar with the market here and can save the original customers a lot of time and waste money.
Ling Feng smiled and said, "You can decide whether I want to enter the outer area or not."
The green-shirted young man suddenly looked hesitant. The outer edges of the Snowy Mountains are filled with mid-level and low-level (first- and second-level) monsters. If the monster hunter is strong, the danger is naturally not very great. But if you get to the middle area, there are
All kinds of high-level monsters are surrounded by dangers, and the mortality rate is extremely high. Except for the powerful monster hunting groups of the Five Ultimate Demon Hunting Group, almost no one dares to enter. And he doesn't know how good Ling Feng's martial arts is, so he naturally hesitates.
Ling Feng turned around and was about to leave.
At this time, the young man in green shirt suddenly said: "I will go, but I will only get 100 taels of silver!"
Normally, he only pays 10 taels of silver as a guide in a small town, and only 30 taels of silver to take people into the mountains. However, going to mid-level areas has a high risk factor, so the price will naturally be higher.
Ling Feng smiled and said, "Okay, wait for me at the door of the inn tomorrow morning!"
He went to a nearby shop and bought a stack of second-level ice talismans, then returned to the inn, had a meal, and started practicing.
…
The next day, early in the morning, the sky was slightly bright.
Ling Feng left the inn and saw the young man in green shirt waiting at the door, so he handed over the fifty-tael silver note and said, "This is half of the deposit!"
The young man took the bank note, looked happy, and said, "Let's have breakfast now and then go up the mountain!"
Ling Feng nodded, and then went to have breakfast with the young man in green shirt. After getting to know each other, he found out that his name was Liu Changqing and that he had been in Monster Hunting Town for three years. His only wish was to earn money to buy elixirs.
Money, so that I can cultivate to the realm of true energy and return to the county town to marry the second young lady of Sun Yuan’s wife’s family in a glorious manner.
Afterwards, the two of them arrived at the head of the village and prepared to step forward.
At this time, some diligent demon hunters had already begun to enter the mountain.
Ling Feng saw the five members of the Five Ultimate Demon Hunting Group among these people, and looked slightly shocked. These five people were really not afraid of death!
Hunting monsters is undoubtedly a dangerous profession with a blade that licks blood. Therefore, no matter how high the martial arts skills of a monster hunter are, they usually do not go into the mountains continuously. Instead, they exchange the harvest for practicing elixirs, improve their cultivation, and prepare the reserves before entering.
Shan. Entering so frequently like the Wujue Demon Hunting Group, it’s simply because he died too slowly.
However, Ling Feng was too lazy to pay attention to them and followed Liu Changqing into the mountain.
The foothills of the Daxue Mountains are still green, with various shrubs growing there, and the climate is pleasant.
But as we go deeper, the altitude increases, the temperature drops suddenly, and there is white snow and ice everywhere.
But the snow-capped mountains are not lifeless. There are also sporadic special cedar trees that can survive the ice and snow.
However, this is only a shallow outer area, and the probability of monsters appearing is low, and only mid-level and low-level monsters will appear. Therefore, Ling Feng and the others kept going deeper.
