At night.

A small pleasure boat walked along the Kutuo River and entered the shining smoke city with bright lights.

Zuo Lingquan stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the various sides of the street.

Zhuoyan City is similar to Qihuang Town outside Qihuang Valley. It is named after Zhuoyan Sect built along the river. Strictly speaking, it is a fairy country market.

The saying goes to "wild" is because there are such places near each sect for local monks to gather and communicate. The routes designated by the nine sects cannot be covered by each sect. These places are maintained by local sects and are not as safe as Linyuan Port.

Zhuyan City is famous for refining weapons, and various magic weapons are indispensable for monks. The prosperity here is obvious; it is said that birds of a feather flock together. Many small sects and casual cultivators who are good at refining weapons will also rent a mountain courtyard with abundant spiritual energy around Zhuyan City and make some money from their craftsmanship.

According to the information provided by Shangguan Lingye, Lei Hongliang was a disciple of Tiandi City. Later, the master was removed from the list of Tiandi City and was implicated from the sect. Relying on his relationship, he was taken in by Xiazong Zhuoyan City, becoming a guest minister, and gradually became famous.

Zuo Lingquan met Zhang Zhengye and others at noon. After asking for a while, he learned that Lei Hongliang had a high status in Zhuyan City because of his good skills. He also held the position of Zhuyan Sect to worship the elders and rarely appeared.

As for the realm, as a weapon refiner, Lei Hongliang was sent to the door by others, and it was impossible to fight with others, so no one knew exactly what realm was Youhuang.

Apart from these, Zuo Lingquan could not inquire about other things, so he said goodbye halfway and took a boat to Zhuyan City first.

Zhuoyan City is located in the upper reaches of the Kutuo River. There are fewer people in the world in the city. All you can see on the street are monks. Qi Refining Realm is the mainstream, and no matter how high it is, you can't see it.

Wu Qingwan and Tang Jingyan were in a small cabin for a few days and were a little bored. At this time, they also walked out, stood beside Zuo Lingquan, and looked at the environment on the street.

Because they were in a different place, the two women were dressed very well. With their hats, Wu Qingwan even deliberately wrapped her breasts a little smaller, while Tang Jingyan changed into an ordinary cloth skirt.

Tuanzi is naughty and smart, and it is easy to attract attention. Zuo Lingquan suffered a loss at Linyuan Port. This time he taught him carefully on the road and asked Tuanzi to pretend to be stupid, otherwise he would lose food.

Tuanzi was very obedient and stopped screaming at this time. She squatted on Zuo Lingquan's shoulder, tilted her head and eyes were dull. She knew she was very stupid at first glance.

It was not easy for Zuo Lingquan to teach this step, so he didn't care about the Tuanzi anymore. After the pleasure boat docked in a place with more berths, he stepped onto the street.

Shangguan Lingye’s private ferry is a magic weapon customized by Yin Yuelin. There are all functions of ordinary ferries, and there are a lot of special functions. Hiding whereabouts and automatically finding the owner is just the basis, and it can even be used as an old weapon, disguised as an ordinary ship, and if it is not destroyed, there is no abnormality at all.

The Qi Refining Cultivator cannot stay away from eating or sleeping. There are inns and restaurants on the street, and like other fairy markets, they only charge for gods and immortals.

Zuo Lingquan took two women around the street, picked up the street with a large traffic, and opened a room at the inn next to him.

The reason why I don’t live on the boat is that opening the isolation magic circle may make people suspicious. It is inconvenient to not open it. It is better to live in the inn openly.

Wu Qingwan stood behind Zuo Lingquan and saw that Zuo Lingquan only opened a room. She looked at Tang Jingwen hesitantly:

"Only one room?"

Tang Jingyan also felt something was wrong. With her thinking, the two of them would definitely have to "practice" later. If she stayed in the room, she would not be embarrassed to death. She also said:

"I'm afraid it's inconvenient, you guys later..."

Zuo Lingquan didn't have any bad intentions for the time being, and said with a smile:

"It's safer to live together. We can stay awake, day and night. Opening a room is just a place to find a place to stay. I'm going to the street to inquire about the news. Just pay attention at the window, and don't have to follow."

Wu Qingwan thought about it, so she didn't say much.

Tang Jingwen stayed in the market for a long time. Although she was younger than Wu Qingwan, her understanding of people's hearts was higher than that of Wu Qingwan, who had never been concerned about the world since childhood, and muttered in a low voice:

"You will definitely be back tonight..."

Zuo Lingquan smiled and didn't answer. After sending the two women into the house, he came to the street intersection on the side of the inn with his package on his back.

There is never a shortage of young monks who set up street stalls in the street market. Needless to say, the places with high traffic have been covered with people.

Zuo Lingquan spent a white jade zhu to buy a stall selling three-no elixirs, and also bought a small stool, spread out black cloth, and placed locust wood on it, a few pieces of unsold garbage ore, luminous mushrooms under the Luohun Abyss and other items.

Except for locust wood, other things are worthless gadgets.

The street stall is opposite the inn. You can see the window where Wu Qingwan and Tang Jingyan are located, but the inn has a cover formation, so you can only see blurry portraits, and you can't hear the two of you gathering together and whispering anything.

Zuo Lingquan glanced at him. Judging from Qingwan's general reaction, he should be talking about "cultivation" at night.

His eyes did not stop at the window, but looked at the pedestrians like ordinary casual cultivators.

Most monks who can hang out in the Smoke City, whether they are weapon refiners or cultivators who customize magic weapons, are worth a lot of money and have a low vision.

After less than a quarter of an hour, Zuo Lingquan saw several male and female monks stopping in front of the stall and looking at the locust wood on the stall, but they may not see the details and finally left.

Those who are interested in ghost locust wood are likely to be evil monks, and this method of waiting for the rabbit is obviously not efficient.

Zuo Lingquan waited quietly for about half an hour. After walking past countless people, he saw a valuable target coming from the street.

The person who came was a monk in blue, with a face of about thirty years old, with an ordinary appearance and an identity card with a 'Thunder' hanging around his waist.

When Zuo Lingquan asked about the news today, he heard that only the disciples of Leigong Mountain in Zhuoyan City hang this sign.

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan was a little serious and did not look at it casually, waiting for the monk in blue to pass by.

However, the monk in blue didn't seem to have a high vision. He glanced at his stall and moved it over. He didn't notice the special nature of the ghost locust tree, so he went straight to the next stall.

Zuo Lingquan frowned secretly. The main purpose of his coming this time was to find the whereabouts of Qingwan's second uncle. Seeing this, he could only speak on his own initiative:

"Please stay, this fellow Taoist."

The monk in blue paused and turned around and spoke in a bad tone:

"If you use a pile of broken stones to cheat, you have to find the right person. Will the people from Dao Ye Lei Gong Mountain be fooled by you?"

"Fellow Taoist misunderstood. I just want to find out something."

Zuo Lingquan said as he took out three white jade zhu.

The monk in blue retreated, half-squatted in front of the stall, and took the Bai Yuzhu:

"Tell me."

"I came from Dayan and wanted to find an expert to refine a skill that would be good. It is best to suit thunder methods. I saw that fellow Taoist is from Leigong Mountain..."

The monk in Qingyi was a little surprised: "You still have some vision. The things I refined in Leigong Mountain are considered top in the entire Nine Sects. What level do you want to cultivate? What kind of thing?"

"The best spiritual weapon is a mirror or a ruler."

Refining low-grade spiritual weapons is not complicated. The weapon refiners in the middle and late stages of the Ling Valley can ensure that they do not explode the furnace. The Qing-clothed monk nodded:

"No problem, but you have to be a little prepared for the price..."

"I will naturally not joke with fellow Taoists when I come here from afar. But I used to inquire at Linyuan Harbor. More than 20 years ago, the magic weapon refined by Lei Gong Mountain seemed to have made mistakes and almost killed the cultivator..."

When the monk in blue heard this, his face changed. It was related to the goodwill of the sect, and he said dissatisfied:

"Fellow Taoist, don't talk nonsense. There has never been such a thing in Leigong Mountain. If it were any, it would have spread a lot."

Zuo Lingquan brought the topic here and revealed his purpose: "What the monks on Linyuan Port said was not like a false statement. He said that he was under the name of Lei Hongliang, but he was actually the apprentice Wu Zunyi who took charge of the matter..."

The monk in blue waved his hand and said, "You don't understand this. The master took his apprentice. Before he left the master, the things he refined were naturally considered as the master. The master was only responsible for guiding and verifying it. This is the rule of the refining company. This is how Tiandi City is done."

"Then this rumor..."

"Oh, no matter how old the master is, he always misses his mistakes. Therefore, even if the things are the same, the price of the things that the apprentice produces will be 30% cheaper when you leave the sect. What you said is either the monk is greedy for cheapness and refuses to admit it after buying the apprentice's defective products; or the local immortal shop uses inferior products as good ones, and it is not explained to others that this is a common thing outside, and the fault is not my Leigong Mountain."

In the case records obtained by Zuo Lingquan, in the end, it was indeed a middleman who used inferior products as good ones. He looked like "suddenly enlightened" and said:

"That's right, it's a fact that something goes wrong with the magic weapon, and it's not a trivial matter. Wu Zunyi is still in Leigong Mountain. If he asked him to produce it, I wouldn't worry. I would rather spend more money on the gods to find someone else."

The monk in green frowned and recalled: "Wu Zunyi... There must be no such person now. But more than 20 years ago, I just entered the mountain gate. At that time, the uncle named Wu, was often praised by the mountain master, and the master asked us to learn more from Uncle Wu, so he had some impression. But I can't remember when it disappeared. I remembered that there was such a person when you said this."

Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly. Since he was missing inexplicably rather than dead, there was still hope to find it. The specific news could only be asked by Lei Hongliang himself.

"I feel relieved if a fellow Taoist said this. If you want to ask the Lord of Leishan to take action personally, what price will it cost?"

"Don't think about this. In the art of refining, the essence is expensive but not much. Once you become famous, you will not reduce your identity and refine low-quality objects. If you want to find someone to refine weapons, I will introduce you to you and give you a personal favor."

Zuo Lingquan knew that he could not find anything valuable, so he nodded and raised his hand and said:

"Then I will pay a thousand white jade zhu, and fellow Taoist will help me contact a reliable one."?!

The monk in green was stunned for a moment before saying:

"What's the thing?"

"One thousand."

"Customized low-quality spiritual weapons, without materials?"

Zuo Lingquan spread his hands and signaled to the stones on the stall:

"Does fellow Taoist think I look like someone with materials?"

“…”

The monk in blue had nothing to say.

The market price of low-grade spiritual weapons with powerful effects such as Thunder Method can be nearly 1,000 yuan for mass production. Find a weapon refiner to tailor it according to personal exercises. It is common sense that the manual fee is more expensive than the materials. If a thousand is a manual fee, it is shabby. If you still have materials?

"You think you are the Qingkui of the Nine Sects?"

"No, I just scattered my cultivators."

"You have such a big face when you are a casual cultivator?"

The monk in green stood up and left. If it weren't for the fact that he had collected three white jade zhu, he would have probably been able to throw away the stall.

"Hey, fellow Taoist, don't leave, I'm so sincere to do business."

"You are sincere and nonsense. Master Dao has no time to be fooled by you..."

After a few words, I have already walked away.

Zuo Lingquan watched the monk go away, then looked at the inn window and shook his head.

Although the scene in the room is blurry and there is no expression, you can also feel that Wu Qingwan is a little disappointed.

Zuo Lingquan sighed secretly, feeling that waiting was futile, so he prepared to put away the carpet and go back to the inn to comfort Qingwan.
