I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 380 Agency Town

After shaking off those annoying snakes, Jiang Wen allowed the puppet to move around on its own. The puppets in this world are similar to the puppets seen in the temple behind the stone gate. They are all giant human figurine weapons forged from bronze.

There is a circular glow behind it, and the puppet itself is green and yellow. As long as mana is poured into the belly of the puppet, it will be able to maintain the puppet's activity for three or four days. It is really a mysterious thing.

Apart from the need for spiritual power, Jiang Wen was very satisfied with the puppet. His only confusion now is why he was brought to this strange place. After all, this is not a dream, and it has nothing to do with Daqian.

If he guessed correctly, this should be where the Yuyun clan is. As for where exactly it was, he didn't quite know.

There are still too many mysteries in the world, and even with his level of cultivation, it is difficult to figure them out.

"I hope Xue Changming is fine." Jiang Wen thought that Xue Changming might also encounter the same problem as himself, so he prayed for him silently in his heart.

The nameless woman in the puppet body with him was still sitting on the ground silently, and the two of them had no unnecessary topics to talk about. After all, how can a person who doesn't even know who he is have any extra words to talk to others?

The two of them got along so stiffly on the road, and they didn't know how many days had passed. Jiang Wen would check whether the puppet was damaged from time to time and inject mana into the puppet. The nameless woman will cooperate with him in his adventures and observe everything going on around him. The two of them have a very good tacit understanding, just like old friends who have known each other for many years.

Until one day, the puppet led the two of them over a huge desert hill. Standing on the top of the sand dune and looking down, Jiang Wen unexpectedly discovered that there was a small town not far away.

"Our luck is not bad." Jiang Wen looked at the small town and smiled. "Maybe we can meet some living people and have some rest."

I originally thought that this world was an endless desert with no living creatures. He didn't expect to see a town built by living people, which surprised Jiang Wen.

After hearing this, the unknown woman nodded in understanding. Although she didn't understand why Jiang Wen was so happy, she also felt happy in her heart.

Without saying any more unnecessary words, the puppet walked towards the town.

It wasn't until he got closer to the town that Jiang Wen saw clearly what kind of place it was.

The town is built in the desert, but there is an oasis not far away. There is a silver pool in the oasis, which looks as red as jade in the afterglow of the setting sun. It seems to be the most beautiful pearl in the desert, one that people will never forget once they see it.

The architectural style of the town is quite peculiar, as it is made up of remnant parts of various institutions. The houses made of bronze are all very stylish, making people unable to take their eyes away from them.

Seeing that there were no large puppets in the town, Jiang Wen was afraid of disturbing the people in the town, so he stopped the puppet at the foot of a sandy slope about a mile away from the town. Then the unknown woman walked in wearing a cloak and hat.

What surprised Jiang Wen was that there didn't seem to be many people in the town. They were all wearing coir raincoats and cloaks, wrapping themselves tightly.

Walking back and forth on the road, from time to time there would be wooden cows and horses passing by. This place is like a machine world, with various machine creations everywhere. Like a horse, it's a trick horse, and it's like a trick dog. The mechanical chickens kept in the yard and the mechanical birds flying in the sky. It’s hard to imagine what kind of place it is that doesn’t need some living creatures to embellish it.

Jiang Wen took the unknown woman to a place that looked like a restaurant. He could still understand some of the Tai Cang characters written on the sign at the door.

The two pushed the door open and walked in. They saw a machine man in front of the counter fiddling with abacus. He said without raising his head: "Accommodation or repair?"

"Accommodation." Jiang Wen said concisely, but his voice still attracted the attention of the agency man. The agency man put down the abacus in his hand and raised his head to look at him curiously. Seeing that his face was unclear and he was covered with a bamboo hat, he didn't say much.

He moved his body stiffly, took out a bronze plaque and clicked it. There is a phantom born on the compass, and countless words are scattered.

"How many days will you stay?" the agent asked. "...Three days." Jiang Wen thought for a while and decided to extend the stay appropriately. He glanced at the situation in the store, but he didn't see anyone in the lobby. There are only countless long bronze boxes like coffins placed in the lobby, and I don't know what they are used for.

"Two taels of spiritual crystals are needed in three days." The agency man said again.

"A piece of spiritual crystal?" Jiang Wen listened to the agency man's words and was very curious about this spiritual crystal. He had heard of spiritual stones and jade. This is the first time I heard about this spiritual crystal.

"From the tone of the guest officer, it seems that he doesn't know what this spiritual crystal is?" The agency man looked at Jiang Wen in confusion. On his somewhat square bronze head, a pair of jewel-like eyes stared at the two of them.

Although I have seen various machine creations in the past few days, this is the first time I have seen such a vivid machine doll. The other party's speech and movements were as if they were alive, without the bulkiness and stiffness of ordinary machine puppets.

"It's my first time coming to your place, so I really don't know much about it." Jiang Wen said frankly. He didn't feel the danger from this agency man, so naturally he wasn't afraid of him.

After hearing this, the agency man didn't say anything more. He just turned around and took out a spiritual stone fragment from the counter behind him and placed it on the table.

"This is the spirit crystal." The machine man pointed at the fragments of the spirit stone. "If the guest has this thing, he can stay in the store."

It turned out to be a spiritual stone. Jiang Wen thought as he looked at the fingernail-sized spirit stone fragments on the table. Then he checked his storage bag, and there were many spiritual stones in it. Some of it was given to him by Li Yunshang, but he has never been able to spend it.

After checking the spiritual stones on the table, I found that I didn't have any spiritual stones of this size. In the end, after picking and choosing, I could only choose the smallest piece of spiritual stone and hand it to the agency person.

The machine man took the spirit stone and his eyes suddenly glowed. He took it in his hand and inspected it carefully, and after a long time he said, "Sir, the quality of your spiritual crystal is really good."

"How much is it worth?" Jiang Wen asked curiously.

"This spiritual crystal weighs ten taels, but the quality is extremely high, comparable to a hundred taels of spiritual crystals." The agency man said happily, and took out the box to find some spiritual stone fragments for Jiang Wen. Then a bronze plaque was handed to him, indicating the room where he would stay.

Jiang Wen looked at the bronze sign with room number A written on it. The two went upstairs and quickly found their own room.

After opening the door and entering, he discovered the peculiarity of this restaurant guest room. None of the furnishings in the house are functional, and even the bed is a hard bed made of bronze.

There were several recessed parts on it. Jiang Wen checked and found that a spiritual stone could be inserted into these places.

"It's really a strange town." Looking back on what he saw in the town, Jiang Wen always felt that there was something wrong with the town.

He asked his doubts to the unknown woman. The woman looked at him with bright eyes and said calmly: "Don't you realize that there is a lack of popularity here?"

Jiang Wen's mind immediately reacted, and he felt that Wuming's words were right.

There is just a lack of vitality here.
