Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 201 The correct number

The two joked and walked towards Fangshi.

When I got closer to Lu Ye, I saw that there were a main gate and a side door on a low wall about ten feet high outside the city. The side door protruded like a fang.

The two of them entered through the door with the Xuanmo Gate plaque hanging on it.

Shu Chitu explained that the seven families would divide the city into sections, and whoever occupied the inner city area would have to manage the foreign merchants in the outer city accordingly.

This is the territory of Xuanmo Sect, and Xuanmo Sect is responsible for all patrols and guards.

There was a bubble-like light shield on the periphery of the low wall. When the two entered, there was a slight flash of light and then nothing happened.

"Senior brother," Shu Chitu said, pointing to the magic shield covering the entire city like an inverted bowl, "This protective magic circle was built with spiritual stones from seven families."

He pointed at the core tower again.

"That is the core control point of the magic circle. Every day, a family of elders come to take turns to guard the control of the magic disk and suppress the city at the same time."

Why is it now that the official number is opened in this magical city?

To be precise, it was Gujianzhuang and Baihemen, the two major sects behind the official joint number.

He remembered that the last time Qingshan dealt with the Plum Blossom Bandits, the leader who died in his hands confessed that in the Plum Blossom Bandits organization, most people suspected that it was Zhenglianhao who gave them the spirit stone to cut off the trade route.

Lu Ye glanced at it and saw people queuing up outside the side entrance of Fangshi to enter.

"Correct serial number?"

"Isn't that a business under the two golden elixir sects, Gujianzhuang and Baihemen?"

When he first came here to wander around, there were fewer customers and fewer shops than now. Now that the number has increased, maybe it will become popular in a year and a half.

Shu Chitu smiled and explained that the market has just opened, and there was an incident involving Jie Xiu blocking the road a few days ago. It is normal for there to be few people and few shops.

"Temporary tokens cannot stay overnight, and the rest are no different from us."

No wonder the side door is set up to protrude outside, it is also for safety. Once the magic circle is raised in the event of chaos, the side door can be isolated from the outside of the magic circle.

"Brother, look there..." Shu Chitu pointed at a shop with the largest area. There was a plaque hanging on it, with two big characters in front of it.

He thought that if one of the seven families rebelled, the array would be useless.

Lu Ye thought about it for a moment and said in surprise.

"Junior Brother Shu, why do I see that our business is not very prosperous?"

There is a small flying crane pattern below the main couplet.

"We have a sect token, so entry and exit are unobstructed, and the same is true for the merchants inside. If outsiders come in or out, they must first register and pay spirit stones at the side entrance to receive a temporary token."

Lu Ye noticed that there were few customers on the street, and even the shops on both sides occasionally had unopened ones. The business could only be described as deserted.

Not only Xuanmo Sect, but also the other families.

"Just one entry and exit requires 5 spiritual crystals."

He lowered his head and asked in a deep voice.

Shu Chitu led Lu Ye into the outer city.

Shu Chitu said with a sigh on his face.

"Elder brother, what's weird?"

"It's just business."

"People can come to our site to do business, and our Demon Sect's business can also open shops in decent markets."

"Exchange what you have, don't be shabby, earn spiritual stones, let's earn together."

"This kind of situation is very common here in Central Continent, it's not uncommon."

He quietly explained to Lu Ye that he had read a travelogue in the Sutra Pavilion of the Imperial Palace, which was written by a monk after traveling to the mainland.

The monk had a point of view that was quite novel and perhaps biased, but sometimes it made sense when I thought about it.

What is a decent family?

That is, the fist is big enough and hard enough, and there is a master of Nascent Soul Golden Pill in charge.

Being able to occupy the place with the best spiritual veins in the world, having sufficient spiritual energy, and practicing the Taoist method that directly points to immortality, one can select the best batch of fairy seedlings.

It doesn't have to be as ugly as the Xuanmo Sect's food appearance, and there is enough time to train generations of disciples.

This is called a decent family.

And sects like the Seven Demons Sect of Heikokushan.

The fists are not too strong, only the foundation-building monks support the show.

You can't grab a hilltop with plenty of spiritual energy, so you can only choose corners and corners that are despised by famous people and look for a hilltop with decent spiritual energy.

If spiritual energy is insufficient, people will naturally be eager for quick success and practice evil arts or magic methods that advance rapidly, have many hidden dangers, and even violate ordinary people's moral principles, exploiting and squeezing their disciples, so as to support the core disciples of the sect and ensure continuous inheritance.

Even Mo Ruyan, like Mo Ruyan, didn't even bother to train disciples, but went straight to capture a group of fairy seedlings to force him to become a disciple, and planted the life and death talisman. Even the elders who taught the skills were captured and forced to take the Yin Fire Gu.

To be precise, the Seven Demon Sects of Heikoku Mountain are not popular heretics. After all, there is no immortal Nascent Soul among them who can live for thousands of years.

The real sect of the demon sect may not be worse than the famous sect. It also occupies a blessed place in the world, has sufficient spiritual energy, and practices demonic techniques that directly lead to immortality.

Just like a famous sect, one sect controls several large secular countries, collects resources, and supports all the monks in the sect. It's just that he acts naked and doesn't pretend to be superficial.

The monk even recorded that thousands of years ago, after a large demon sect took control of a country, it had sufficient resources and obtained the righteous method by various opportunities. Later, it gradually became a famous and upright sect.

There are also some famous sects that declined due to various reasons, lost their ancestral land, and were driven to remote villages. In the end, they also abandoned their ancestral inheritance, practiced evil arts, and became a demon sect.

The so-called evil spirits are nothing more than a means for immortal cultivators to seek immortality.

If you have sufficient strength and aura, have longevity skills, know how to whitewash and promote propaganda, and have a harmonious appearance in the family, you are decent.

If you have sufficient strength, aura, and immortality skills, but are too lazy to whitewash it or don't publicize it properly, and have naked competition among disciples, you are a demon sect.

Lack of strength, lack of aura, and lack of immortality skills. Being a demon is just a way to put money on one's face. In fact, in the eyes of the demon sect, it is all heresy.

If we look at it from this monk's point of view, none of the decent Ancient Sword Manor and Baihe Sect in Ba Kingdom, including the Seven Demon Sects in Heikoku Mountain, have little Immortality Realm Nascent Soul monks in charge. They are all heretical.

Since they are all heretics, it is normal for them to communicate with each other and do business. Even the real famous sects and demon sects do business privately.

If the state officials can do it, why can’t the people do it?

Lu Ye smiled.

"Junior Brother Shu, the views of the person who wrote this miscellany you read are quite novel. Although they are a bit extreme, it cannot be said to be completely unreasonable."

"If my second brother were here, he would definitely say that he understands this matter."

"The big bandits and the government are all in charge of the sword. It doesn't mean that whoever sits on the dragon throne gets the status of righteousness. Anyway, they all live by the sword."

"The government is like an upright person, who has to cover up a lot of things in appearance, and needs to harvest while maintaining order. The demon sect is like a bandit, who acts naked and doesn't have many tricks, but has a rough order. He will habitually use the knife when provoked. "

"It seems that the principles of many things in the world of immortality and in the secular world are still the same."

Shu Chitu nodded.

"That's how it is."

The two of them chatted and laughed and walked to the main door, but they were cautious and did not enter. They just stopped and watched.

But inside the shop, there were also some other disciples of the Black Cave Mountain Demon Sect who were making selections. If they found something they liked, they would start asking for prices. It was quite lively.

Lu Ye watched for a while before pulling Shu Chitu away, thinking that when there were more people coming in and out of the store, he could come and have a look.

The seven families in Heikoku Mountain are all foundation-building sects, and the corresponding second-level resources are not open to the disciples. They are all monopolized by foundation-level masters.

The Ascension Talisman planted on Wang Hu and Zhang Cunyi was at least a second-level Talisman skill.

Lu Ye has been thinking about it these days. If he wants to remove the talismans from the two sworn brothers, he must at least master the second-level talisman skills. Purchasing the corresponding talisman true solution from there is a trouble.

Zhenglianhao is backed by the Jindan sect, and second-level resources are not untradeable for them. Maybe they can find the second-level talisman inheritance here, even if it is incomplete, it is better than nothing.

The two of them continued to move forward and saw some casual cultivators setting up stalls along the street, selling some talismans, elixirs, magic weapons and the like.

Shu Chitu explained that in addition to allowing households to operate in the market, there are no restrictions on business operations, but they all have to pay taxes.

Therefore, bold foreign monks and even skilled Seven Demon Sect disciples came out to set up stalls on the street.

In addition to these merchants and the serious shops on both sides, Lu Ye also found that there were unofficial shops.

It doesn't matter if there are restaurants or restaurants among them. After all, immortal cultivators are also human beings, and many of them like to eat and drink.

But there is also a plaque with the name of Chunfeng Tower. On the second floor above, there are many Kun Xiu dressed in cool clothes leaning on the railing and ogling. What's going on?

The melodious sound of silk and bamboo could be heard from inside, and disciples of the seven sects were coming in and out. In terms of the number of people and the level of excitement, Chunfeng Pavilion was undoubtedly the most popular shop in the city.

Lu Ye looked at Shu Chitu with doubts on his face.

"Junior brother, if I'm not mistaken, this seems to be a brothel?"

"How can there be such a thing in the market? And the business looks good."

Shu Chitu said with envy.

"Senior brother, you read that right. This is a brothel. Food, sex, and business are of course good."

"Fourth Senior Brother, don't underestimate this place. This business is doing great. We don't need to buy or store goods, and we are not afraid of being blocked by robbers and cultivators. We have plenty of water and we have handed over a lot of spiritual stones to the sect. Which leader wouldn't like it?" ?”

"Even the disciples finally have a place to relax. After all, it is too difficult to find a Taoist companion in our Demon Sect. If you don't pay attention, you will find either a Taoist companion or a murderer."

"Come here, spend a small amount of money, and you can relax your body and soul, and you can also understand the Hehuan Avenue without having to worry about being plotted against. How cost-effective it is?"

"We can only get one spiritual stone subsidy in the sect every month. Counting daily tasks, the total is only two or three spiritual stones. The top Kun cultivator here can get this amount in one night."

Lu Ye immediately felt his teeth sore after hearing this.

It's so annoying. We have been working so hard all day long on sect tasks, but we can actually make more money by selling them?

Shu Chitu said with red eyes.

"Senior brother, don't look down on these Kun cultivators. The more they earn, the more resources they have for cultivation. In terms of cultivation alone, they may not be bad."

"Having spent decades of youth and accumulated enough spiritual stones will not necessarily delay your cultivation. The owner of Spring Wind Pavilion, Fairy He, is said to have been a red card back then. She is the best among them and the number one among flowers."

"Now he is also a Qi Perfection cultivator."

Shu Chitu shook his head as he spoke.

"Alas, this Spring Wind Pavilion also recruits male monks, but it's a pity that they actually discriminate against rat demons!"

"The Lotus Fairy is so beautiful, but she's also very venomous. She actually said that I'm not big enough... It's really irritating."
