Chapter 161 There is something strange in An Yin Mountain
Anyinshan is known as the Summer Capital of Zhongzhou. After the shocking war, the emperor set up six palaces in Anyinshan to escape the summer heat in Anyinshan. It was called "Xijing" by the people.
It became a place where merchants gathered. After the attack on Shangjing City, many children and family members of aristocratic families who survived the disaster used this place as a temporary refuge.
As a cool small town, Anyinshan usually becomes quiet after entering winter, but this year is a bit special. The arrival of a large number of children of aristocratic families, family members, servants, and servants made the small town particularly lively, and the place was overcrowded for a while.
.
Although Anyin Mountain controls the choke point from Beijing to the northwest, due to terrain constraints, it has always been a small city, less than ten miles long and only two or three miles wide. Two gates on the east and west guard the only broad road in the mountain.
official way.
However, anyone who knows anything knows that the most valuable thing about Anyin Mountain is not in the city, but in the mountains outside the city. Anyin Mountain is a mountain as its name suggests, and this mountain produces a special mineral, that is, spirit.
Rhyme stone.
The mining of Lingyun Stone in Anyin Mountain has a history of thousands of years. Although most of the mines here have been abandoned, there are still some small veins, but currently all of these small veins are occupied by the emperor's palace.
Now, since small mineral veins cannot be occupied, some powerful chambers of commerce and families have purchased those abandoned mines and transformed them into residences. Although they do not look so beautiful, the spiritual power in these abandoned mines is not weak.
In addition, the temperature inside the mine is suitable, so it is naturally a good place to cultivate one's health and prolong life.
Jin Ruofeng was still twenty miles away from Anyin Mountain and dispersed the flying rafts under his feet. Although it cost more than a dozen spiritual stones, the rapid speed alone showed that the cost was worth it.
It may be that the news from Hufeng Pass made Anyinshan alert. When he was about to arrive at Anyinshan, Jin Ruofeng saw several groups of soldiers standing ready, and even huge crossbows were set up on the city walls. However, unlike Hufeng,
What is different from the pass is that the Anyinshan side does not block pedestrians and allows them to pass through.
When Shi Mang passed by these soldiers, he looked at them carefully. Unexpectedly, these soldiers did not pay attention to the guy who attacked Hufeng Pass not long ago. As for Jin Ruofeng, he looked inconspicuous.
After passing through the relatively exquisite city gate of Anyin Mountain, a small city in the mountains immediately appeared in front of the two of them. The straight stone roads, neat streets, and noisy and bustling markets formed a unique picture. Jin Ruofeng
Shi Mang and I found an inn to stay temporarily. There was still thousands of miles to go from Anyin Mountain to Changfeng City. Of course, we couldn't just rely on two feet. Flying rafts are also a means of transportation in emergencies.
If used like this, Jin Ruofeng would probably be bankrupt before he even reached Changfeng City.
"Shi Mang, go to the tavern later and see if there is a caravan coming to Changfeng City. We can take advantage of it!"
"Okay!" Shi Mang nodded, "Boss, what are your conditions?"
"There aren't that many things to do. It doesn't matter how much money you have, as long as you take care of food and shelter, we don't rely on that much money anyway!"
Shi Mang nodded and agreed. Anyin Mountain is the only way to Changfeng City, and there are many such caravans.
After Shi Mang left, Jin Ruofeng counted the spiritual stones in his hand. In addition to the high-level spiritual stones, there were hundreds of intermediate spiritual stones that he could use, and there were still many low-level spiritual stones left.
Few, but these are used as pocket money. With his and Shi Mang's current spiritual root strength, this low-level spiritual stone can no longer meet their spiritual power needs.
"It seems that I need to make some money to replenish my pockets!" Jin Ruofeng looked at the materials in Silver Dragon Abyss and found that there were still a lot of talisman embryos that were not used. These were also purchased in Shangjing City in order to go to Zhanyunguan Pass.
Some of them are relatively expensive talisman embryos purchased during the Zhanyunguan Pass.
Although Anyinshan is just a small town, it is the "Summer Capital" after all. Both the quality of its personnel and the level of its products are very high. In addition, the people who come here are some dignitaries, and the overall price level is also high in the entire Zhongzhou.
"The third-grade talisman requires ten spiritual stones, why don't you go and grab it?" Jin Ruofeng walked to a shop selling talismans and heard the people inside roaring with dissatisfaction. He couldn't help but stop.
Everyone wants to watch the excitement, and he is not the only one around.
The store clerk smiled and said to the man and woman in front of him: "Sir, if you steal something like this, it's really not as good as selling it!"
One sentence will make the other party lose their temper. In buying and selling, there is a sale only when you buy it. If you don't want to buy it, they have no intention of selling it to you.
"Brother, how about we think of another solution?"
The man in samurai uniform sighed and said: "If I had my way, I wouldn't come here! Give me one of these, two of these, one of these, and this, and this!" It looks like this
The warrior warrior was preparing for a big move, and he actually bought seven or eight talismans in one go, and they were all around the third and fourth grades. Naturally, their power was extraordinary. If he went hunting, he would encounter around the fifth grade talismans.
There is also the possibility of the monsters escaping.
Jin Ruofeng stepped into the shop and took a brief glance. This shop can be renamed "Black Shop". The price of the talisman here is more than double that of Shangjing City, and the quantity and quality are not complete.
How could this little Anyin Mountain be so wealthy?
After visiting several shops one after another, Jin Ruofeng found that the situation was basically the same, and there was another phenomenon that puzzled Jin Ruofeng, that is, the varieties and grades of the shop's talismans were not very high, or the better ones had all been sold out.
Yes, there is definitely a problem here.
"Boss, I just got some news!" Jin Ruofeng had just returned to the inn, and Shi Mang followed him back.
"What's going on?"
"It is said that a crack appeared thirty miles outside Anyinshan City not long ago. Thick fog filled it, and strange screams came from time to time. Several local mountain people entered, but only one escaped. The others died.
Inside!"
"Are there monsters in there?" Anyin Mountain has been a place where spiritual beasts have been mined since ancient times. It would be strange if there weren't a few monsters. However, this is the emperor's summer resort, and even if there are monsters, most of them won't be there.
What a threat, the monsters that can be put on the table have long been regarded as appetizers by Shenlongwei.
"Yes, but no one knows what the monster is, and the person who escaped actually came out with a few intermediate aura stones!"
"Bonanza!"
Shi Mang nodded and said: "Yes, but what's a little strange is that this crack is extremely evil. An Yinshan sent several groups of people into it. Except for those who came out intact but found nothing, the rest of the team
They all suffered heavy losses, and even one of the warriors leading the team failed to come out!"
"Oh? Tell me in detail!" Jin Ruofeng realized that there was definitely something wrong with this sudden crack, but if he could really find out this rich mine of aura stones, his pockets would also be filled. He could use the ancient
Although the effect of drawing runes and sigils is good and the power is greatly improved, the spiritual power required has also increased, which is really unaffordable.
Shi Mang told in detail what he heard in the tavern. In fact, this was also a very strange thing in the local area. Although the valley where the crack appeared was only thirty miles away from the small town of Anyinshan, it was not too common on weekdays.
There are so many people there that it can be said that it is inaccessible. Apart from local hunters, only wild animals roam there.
It was the local hunters who first discovered the rift. Although they were not warriors or talisman masters, they still lived in Anyin Mountain and knew something about this kind of spiritual power. The dense fog in the rift was mixed with spiritual power.
These hunters were very happy, thinking that they could find a small mineral vein. If they sold it to a wealthy family, they would be able to live a prosperous life for the rest of their lives. However, when they entered it, they found that it was filled with thick fog and there were monsters and monsters.
Except for the clever hunter who escaped, no one survived. However, before the hunter escaped, he picked up a few stones on the ground and prepared to use them as weapons. After he came out, he discovered that they were Lingyun ore. After refining, they were all...
Intermediate aura stone.
After this incident happened, Anyinshan County Sheriff immediately sent an exploration team to the fissure. Because of the presence of monsters, each exploration team was equipped with warriors, and there was even a team with a low-level warrior. But these
All the exploration teams were caught in the thick fog and attacked by monsters. Only one team did not suffer any damage, but they did not find the ores that Orion mentioned, not even the veins. However, it is certain that there are indeed
A lot of spiritual power has been lost, which means there is definitely aura ore in it.
"Shi Mang, go find out the details of these people who entered the rift, especially their strength!" Jin Ruofeng thought of something, "I think we should be able to figure it out!"
"Understood, I'll go now!" Shi Mang immediately became energetic after hearing what Jin Ruofeng said.
This kind of thing spread on the street, and Shi Mang came back soon. The information he brought to Jin Ruofeng verified his idea. In addition to the hunters, the four exploration teams sent by Anyinshan County Sheriff were assigned to
There are twelve warriors, two teams are led by fourth-level warriors, and one is led by war warriors. The only team that has no gains is also led by a fourth-level warrior, but this warrior at that time
The soldier was accidentally injured and was quickly sent out after entering the crack.
"Shi Mang, it seems that this fissure is specially designed to deal with tough situations." Jin Ruofeng smiled slightly, "Let's go take a look too!"
