Chapter 109: Hospitality?

Threatened by the Yunming Monster, the huge Fenghua Prefecture did not even have an area that could be called safe outside of the "Three Passes and Six Cities".

Once the monks leave the "Three Passes and Six Cities" and go outside, they may be attacked by monsters at any time.

But even if they know this, some monks still choose to come to the wild.

The reason is not complicated at all, it is mainly for "resources".

Monsters like to eat people. For the monsters in the Eight Wilderness World, eating people, especially monks, can increase their cultivation, so there are frequent incidents of monsters attacking humans.

In the same way, monks also love to hunt monsters, because once they successfully hunt a monster, its inner elixir can be used to refine medicine, its bones can be used to refine weapons, and its blood can be used to make talismans.

It is said that wealth and silk are attractive to people. For monks, every part of a monster beast can be converted into valuable spiritual stones. It is excellent whether you use it yourself or trade it.

In addition, the senior officials of Fenghuazhou's "Three Gates and Six Cities" did not prohibit this behavior.

Considering that this move can effectively relieve the pressure on patrols in the state, this behavior is even encouraged. This also makes this kind of "monster hunting" activity flourish among the monks in Fenghua Prefecture.

With the rise of monster hunting, monks often go into the wild in groups to hunt monsters.

Where there is demand, there is a market. As the number of monks who go to the wild to hunt monsters gradually increases, they cannot rush all the way back to the main city to sell every harvest, so some small-scale gatherings are set up outside the main city. take shape.

These gatherings are somewhat similar to the "markets" in the main city, but more than [-]% of the products traded in the markets outside Fenghuazhou are materials related to various monsters and beasts, and the rest are medicinal materials, talismans, and magic tools. etc.

There is such a market in the north of Pingyunling.

"Fellow Taoist, stay here later, or just stroll around nearby. I'll go to the stall in front to process the medicinal materials I collected earlier on the mountain."

The little Taoist priest said, pointing to the medicine basket behind him, and then pointed to a stall selling medicinal herbs not far ahead, asking Han Mo and his party to wait here.

Han Mo nodded, and after the other party left, he took the three girls around and started wandering around.

According to the little Taoist priest, although there are few medicinal materials traded here, some common medicinal materials are still available, such as Yin Ning Cao.

However, after actually arriving here, Han Mo discovered that this market was not as big as he imagined, not even as big as a village.

There were no people at all in the market. Only a few monks were setting up stalls, and most of the stalls were empty.

There were not many monks who came to visit the market, only a few people, looking deserted.

Although there are few people, the monks here are very friendly.

When Han Mo and his entourage passed by the monks setting up stalls, they would always greet them with a smile and an attitude as warm as the spring breeze.

What's more, sometimes a monk will come directly to you:
"This fellow Taoist, why are you here? Do you need help?"

No, a monk dressed as a scholar came up and asked.

Not only was he friendly, but he was also very enthusiastic in lending a helping hand.

Because he had encountered similar situations several times before, Han Mo already had experience in dealing with them.

After briefly explaining his purpose of coming, he immediately told the other party that he had someone to lead the way and declined the other party's kindness.

"Oh, it turns out that Taoist friend is here to purchase medicinal herbs. It would be nice to have an acquaintance to lead the way."

After being rejected, the scholar's expression did not change much. On the contrary, after hearing Han Mo say that an acquaintance was leading the way, the smile on his face grew stronger.

As he spoke, he took out a few talismans from his arms and injected them with spiritual power, which turned into a thin mist and fell on Han Mo and the three women behind him.

As the fog rose and a gust of warm wind blew by, several people suddenly felt that the fatigue of running all the way was blown away a lot, and they became energetic.

After completing this move, the scholar took two steps forward and introduced with a smile:

"This is the Qingxin Talisman. It has the effect of calming the mind and relieving fatigue. These few people look unfamiliar, they must not be from the Mirror City!" Han Mo nodded slightly and remained silent.

Seeing Han Mo admit that he was a "foreigner", the smile on the scholar's face became brighter:

"You all are guests from afar. This mountain is called Pingyun Ridge. In the past, monsters and beasts often appeared here.

However, since a fake Alchemist and several foundation-building seniors took the lead in establishing this market at the foot of the mountain a year ago, several seniors often clean up the nearby business roads on a regular basis, so the place is much peaceful.

Although there is not much traffic on weekdays, the goods traded are of high quality and low price, and some rare items are often found.

Fellow Taoists can come here often. If you have friends you know, you can also recommend coming here. I believe you will gain something.

Even if you are lucky enough to get the favor of several foundation-building seniors, or even the fake elixir master, you may be able to gain other opportunities. "

When he heard the word "opportunity", Han Mo was stunned. After thinking about it secretly for a while, he quickly showed an interested look:
"Fellow Taoist, by chance? Do you mean that these seniors will give guidance to us juniors in Qi refining just like a master guides his disciples?"

"Master and apprentice? Hahaha, fellow Taoist, this is more intimate guidance than ordinary master and apprentice..."

……

After chatting like this for a while, the scholar quickly said goodbye and left.

After seeing the scholar walk away, Su Mengyao sighed a little:
"Sister Jun, this monk from Huazhou is really warm and hospitable."

It was the first time for Su Mengyao to travel far away. It was quite interesting to see the customs and customs in a foreign land that were different from her hometown.

Jun Ruohan frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that something was wrong, and was about to ask Han Mo.

Han Mo was one step ahead of her, patted her shoulder and chuckled:

"It seems that because monsters and beasts are rampant here, human monks have to unite together, so the monks here are much kinder and more united than our monks in Tianhai State."

Eh, is that so?

Jun Ruohan's question was interrupted by Han Mo, but soon she seemed to have received some prompt and immediately fell silent.

It was also at this time that a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind a few people.

"Fellow Taoist is right. Monsters are the biggest enemies of our human race. Naturally, we and our race must unite together."

It turned out that the little Taoist priest was back. As he spoke, he wanted to go forward and continue to lead the way.

"Fellow Taoist, you've been waiting for a long time. I'll take you to find the Yin Ning Grass!"

Han Mo smiled and nodded, but asked abruptly: "Fellow Taoist, didn't the stall you went to sell Yin Ningcao before?"

"Fellow Taoist, I don't know. Although Yin Ning Cao is very common, it is not a low-level medicinal material. It is still difficult to find in ordinary stalls. There is a medicine shop not far ahead. We can go there and have a look."

The little Taoist priest was stunned when he heard this, and quickly answered with a smile, without any hesitation in his expression.

Seeing this scene, Han Mo didn't ask any more questions and allowed the little Taoist priest to continue leading the way.

After walking through this section of the square where stalls are set up, several simple and elegant pavilions soon appeared in front of them.

Through the signboard hanging outside the pavilion, you can vaguely see that there is indeed a medicine shop inside.

As for the other ones, they are shops selling elixirs, magical instruments, talismans, etc.

"The shops in front are run by those senior foundation builders, and they sell the best goods here. If you are not in a hurry, fellow Taoist, you can go in and have a look."
