Rainbow Moon Seeking Immortality.

Chapter 53 Red Salt Mountain

The mountains and fields are vast, it’s early autumn.

The autumn wind blows across the earth, and the forests are dyed with a faint and yellow charm.

On the side of a mountain along a commercial road, Jiang He squatted half-crouched on a boulder, looking far into the distance.

His clothes were old and worn, with mud stains and claw marks on the corners. His long hair hung casually behind his shoulders, mixed with dead branches and leaves.

Under the sleeve of his right arm, the elbow was empty, and half of his arm was gone.

Half a month ago at Bandit Monkey Mountain, after an arm wrestling match with the white-maned giant ape, half of his right arm was shattered into bone and flesh. Even the rare Endless Life Gu could not cure such serious injuries, so he had to stop. Blood, and then draw other pictures.

Due to the lack of his right arm, his combat power has declined to a certain extent. At least he can no longer fire the moon blade with both hands.

At the same time, missing half of his arm also brought a lot of inconveniences in life, which made Jiang He feel quite uncomfortable and at a loss. If he hadn't known that there were many Gu insects in the Gu world that could amputate limbs and reshape them, he wouldn't have to worry too much.

After leaving Bandit Monkey Mountain, Jiang He broke away from the business road and galloped northward. Today, he finally reached his small target.

In the field of vision, there are many wooden towers, piles of salt everywhere, crowds of people, and thousands of feet high mountains where business roads converge, standing abruptly in the vast land.

Red Salt Mountain!
The salt bricks it produces are white with reddish color and are quite flavorful, and are widely sold to many cottages in southern Xinjiang.

Jiang He had also seen it in Jia Fu's caravan. Mortals bought many of them, including high-grade salt bricks. They were as red as blood, as fine in texture as smooth as jade, and were known as red salt jade. They were also popular as a poison material.

Due to the availability of salt bricks, a daily necessity, caravans gathered and trade routes were thoroughfares, the Yan family in Red Salt Mountain was able to make a lot of money, which was often passed down five times and passed down for thousands of years.

When Jiang He arrived at Chiyan Mountain, it was in this place that merchants gathered, and they were rich in supplies. They were able to buy Gu materials and feed the dying third-turn Phantom Attack Gu.

In addition, try to find a Gu insect that can regenerate a broken limb and restore the right arm.

Take a short rest before setting off northward.

He jumped up and walked slowly along the business road.

Jiang He's clothes were messy, he was alone, and his temperament was different from ordinary people. He attracted attention, so the patrolling Gu Master naturally noticed him immediately.

There are many commercial ports in Chiyan Mountain, which naturally attracts all kinds of good and evil Gu masters. There are countless unknown Gu masters like Jiang He. Since the Yan family has rank five Gu masters in charge, there are rarely any troubles.

Seeing that it did not approach the mountain stronghold and instead ran towards the caravan stationed outside, I didn't pay much attention to it.

Walking among the caravan tents, Jiang He was still recalling the scene just now.

According to his guess, the tall wooden towers that stood on the red salt mountain were not Gu formations or observation towers, but springs drilled down to extract brine rich in salt mines from the ground and boil salt bricks.

It is obvious that the Yan family of Chiyan Mountain has mastered a technology similar to that of ancient deep well brine mining in previous generations.

Relying on deep wells to collect brine, salt water overflows. The fields around Chiyan Mountain are seriously salinized and the cultivated land is limited. Mortals have devoted themselves to collecting brine and have been immersed in brine for a long time. As a result, their toes are enlarged and their joints are red and swollen. Over the years, Solid salt crystals are spread all over the arm.

The Yan family has made huge profits from selling salt bricks, and ordinary people can never escape the fate of being exploited.

But even so, there are still many mortals who are eager to do this and travel over mountains and ridges to seek refuge.

At least, life under the rule of the Yan family is safe and secure without the invasion of beasts. When cooking in daily life, there is no need to sprinkle salt, just shake your hands a little. There is also less money for expenses. It is really a bitter experience. Sweet.

A little later, Jiang He walked out of the tent group, and the Gu insects in the hole changed slightly.

In addition to collecting enough food to feed the Shadow Rush Gu to eliminate the decline, they also sold the relatively mediocre second-level Water Milk Gu, Wood Armor Gu, and Crescent Moon Pupil Gu to streamline the configuration of the Gu and slow down the frequency of feeding.

On the sea of ​​sparkling flowery silver essence, there is a ball shaped like a ball, crystal texture, translucent, the size of a palm, as if it is covered with clouds, like a man with a cane, a rickety back, white hair hanging down, and an immortal spirit. Decayed.The third-level cherished Gu, the Elder Gu!

It can store up to a million Yuan Stones. The most interesting thing is the expression of the old man on it, which changes with the change of the Yuan Stone stock.

Purchasing this Gu will free up the storage space of the Douchi Grass Gu, and at the same time, the Yuan Stones produced by the Tianyuan Baojun Lotus will also have a place to go.

When Jiang He left Qingmao Mountain, he voluntarily abandoned tens of thousands of hidden Yuan stones to make room for Gu insect food.

At this moment, the old man on the Elder Gu has a sad expression and the corners of his mouth are curved. Needless to say, there is no need to say more about the amount of Yuan Stone in it.

As for the fifth-level Gu material, Hao Bai Tian Bing Jade, which he grabbed from under the eyes of the white-maned giant monkey at the Bandit Monkey Mountain, Jiang He also tentatively inquired about it and learned that the average market price per kilogram was 8 yuan. Yuan Shi, if auctioned, there might be more.

Thinking back on his three kilograms of bright white ice jade, which totaled about 24 yuan stones, it was equivalent to catching three silver relics Gu.

Jiang He was not in a hurry to sell, he planned to keep it for himself.

In addition, he has been thinking about the Gu insect that can regenerate severed limbs but has not found the right one.

It seems that because of the special nature of this type of Gu insect and the fact that it is backed by the Yan family, a large family, all the relic Gu insects and some precious Gu insects in the nearby caravan have been purchased.

His right arm may be empty for a while longer.

At the same time, Jiang He also learned about the destruction of Qingmao Mountain, which aroused a sigh of relief.

That night, Jiang He stayed in a salt brick house built by the Yan family to provide accommodation for foreign Gu masters. The walls were covered with salt bricks, and even the air smelled of salt.

In the next few days, Jiang He repeatedly asked other caravans to learn about their destination, intending to join the caravan and stop by for a while.

But when I asked three caravans in a row, none of them went west to Shangshuang Mountain, east to Yi Family, or south to Wu Family, but none went north.

Fortunately, it was autumn, and there were quite a few caravans passing by on their way back. There would be caravans every once in a while, so Jiang He didn't mind waiting.

Moreover, the journey further north is no less dangerous than the past two months of wandering in the wild, and it is also riddled with trivial matters and sleepless nights. If you can join the caravan, you will naturally have some support.

While waiting for the caravan heading to the north, Jiang He received a one-turn wine bug from a Yan family Gu Master at a higher price.

The one-level wine bug can only refine one level of true energy, and Jiang He has already advanced to the third-level intermediate level, so there is no need for it at all.But he remembered a secret recipe for refining wine worms that he obtained from the Gu Yue clan, which could eventually be refined into a three-turn seven-scented wine worm with the effect of refining true energy.

If you can refine the three-turn Seven-Fragrance Liquor Insect and refine your true energy, you will benefit a lot from it to your own combat power and daily warming and nourishing your acupoints.

Ten days later, the three-turn seven-flavor wine insect was refined as expected.

If he had not been able to collect enough wine worms, Jiang He would have wanted to try to make a second-turn and four-flavor wine worm according to Fang Yuan's instructions in the original work.

In his recollection, the original book mentioned many secret recipes for Gu, the most detailed of which was the three-turn Words without Faith Gu, which was extremely practical. This was also the Gu he wanted to try to refine next.

The next day, the morning fog cleared.

On a nearby commercial road, a caravan could be vaguely glimpsed, approaching the Red Salt Mountain.

When Jiang He saw this, he immediately activated Eagle Eye Gu to investigate.

But I saw that this caravan was huge, even accompanied by a Gu house. On top of the giant toad in the lead, a black flag fluttered in the wind, and there was a gold letter written on it - Jia!
