Chapter 175 The Market

The war between the Nine Daotong and the Siren is in full swing.

The speculations of Mu Xingqiu and Fangfang during chatting were close to the facts. The destruction of the rootless island was to prevent Hengshan and Luanjing Mountain from supporting each other. After that, it never appeared again. A large number of sirens gathered on the coastline of the southern part of Luanjing Mountain, and a small number of sirens kept harassing Qishan.

The Taoist priests' response strategy is also very simple. They dispatch people to help defend Chess Mountain, take the initiative to attack, and annihilate the harassers as much as possible. The Taoist priests in the chaos of Jingshan remained motionless and waited for the sirens to assemble before the decisive battle was fought.

For more than 100,000 years, the Taoist sect has never lost in the war, and this time is no exception. There are many sirens, but their wisdom is relatively low, and some cannot even get ashore. These are the advantages of the Taoist sect.

Pangshan Five Elements Science was ordered to come to Qishan to participate in the defense of the two missing disciples.

Mu Xingqiu was very regretful. He happened to catch the end of the war. The sirens who harassed Qishan suffered huge losses. They retreated farther and farther away, and there were signs of collapse. He and Fangfang were sent back to Qishan Inn and were calm for three or four consecutive days.

But the Qishan Islands are still full of war atmosphere. The courtyards of various major Taoist priests on the Four Three Islands are full of people. The streets are full of Taoist priests in a hurry. There are often young and low Taoist priests stopping, looking at the back that had just passed by with admiration, and excitedly introducing to their companions that this is a famous demon-slaying master.

The expensive room fee is waived for the Taoist disciples. The casual cultivators and demons protected by Qishan do not enjoy any discounts and are under stricter surveillance. Without permission, they are not allowed to leave the island where the inn is located. They can only go to Zhongwudao Market for one hour a day and are no longer hired to participate in demon removal.

Most of the disciples of Qishan live on outer islands, and the small island in the middle serves as a market. The Qiqi Building, one of the treasures of the Nine Daotong, is built on it.

Mu Xingqiu and Fangfang went there twice, and were very satisfied with the market, but a little disappointed with Zhenqi Building.

This is a very old three-story wooden building. It is built on the road of the only wharf. The ground floor is transparent for pedestrians to come and go. The second floor lives with the Qishan disciples sitting in the formation market. The third floor enshrined the oil lamps that have never been extinguished since the moment they were lit. It is said that when unfair fraud occurs in the market, it will shine suddenly.

Mu Xingqiu watched for a while, but couldn't see anything. Compared with the Patriarch Tower and the Sword Washing Pool, the Zhenqi Tower is really a bit shabby.

But the goods at the market did not disappoint him at all, and they were all available. They were enough to make people look dazzling and they were all spent on their money. Pure gold, silver and gold and silver and silver are acceptable currencies, and bartering is also very common.

Yang Qingyin sold dozens of old magic weapons she brought from her home, and obtained a total of seven golden souls and one silver soul, plus a few taels of gold and silver, which was far from the cost of washing magic weapons in Yashan.

She was very happy when she was selling it. After that, she felt that she had been deceived and complained to Zhenqilou, "What fairness light is not effective at all. I was obviously cheated, but it did not shine."

But Mu Xingqiu and Fangfang made a small fortune. The hard shell of the Destroying Xuanwu was indeed a treasure. Less than an hour after leaving the sea, it began to become transparent and yellow, like a whole huge piece of amber. The two of them had specially consulted someone and learned that this thing was not very helpful for refining magic weapons. However, it was the favorite treasure of the kings and princes of the world, so they sold it, causing a small commotion in the market.

Twenty golden souls, a guy who looks a bit like a demon race, paid the highest price. After paying one-tenth of the tax, the two of them earned eighteen golden souls, which was enough to buy better refining materials.

Yang Qingyin, Xin Youtao, and Xiao Qingtao each have family support and carry enough money. By comparison, Chen Hao became a poor man. His uncle was just a businessman in Xijiecheng and could not bring out so much gold or silver. So he thought of another way - renting his nephew to Longbin Club.

"After I reach the realm of Guxia, I will stay at Longbin in Xijie City for three days every year to help them bless the magic power of the talismans for a total of ten years. My uncle sold me for a good price, five golden souls."

The best talismans require the blessing of magic. Longbinhui itself has a group of practitioners and has a fixed connection with the Nine Daotongs, but it is far from meeting the needs, so we can only seek the help of Taoists in private. Most Taoists are dedicated to practicing and have no connection with Longbinhui, nor have their business uncles matched them. Chen Hao is extremely precious to them.

Xin Youtao felt that he was at a loss. "The price should be doubled at least, but you are still only inhaling the third level. It is still hard to say whether you can reach the realm of Guxia in the future. It is probably because of this reason, Long Bin will refuse to pay a big price."

The prince was still speaking sharply, but Chen Hao was not angry. Mu Xingqiu was not here in the past few days, and the two had already become friends. The direct reason was that Chen Hao blocked a ball of demon fire for Xin Youtao in a battle. Yang Qingyin was very disdainful of this, "That ball of demon fire is not threatening at all, and even if it burns to the body, it will not die."

But Xin Youtao still felt the friendship of fighting and was even willing to share his golden soul with Chen Hao. Chen Hao cautiously declined. He already owed a debt from Longbin Club and never wanted to lose money anymore.

On the third day after returning to Qi Mountain, Mu Xingqiu and Fangfang were called to meet Yang Baozhen.

The Five Elements Science of Pangshan is the main force in assisting the defense of Qishan. More than 40 Taoist priests at all levels were sent. The leader was Yang Baozhen. She handed the magic text volume that Half Demon Feiba regarded as a treasure to Mu Xingqiu. "The Qishan Ban Secret Science of Qishan understood the text above. This is indeed written in the text of the demon clan. It is a historical legend of the demon clan that is inverted black and white. There is no secret, but the scroll itself is made of spider silk from the already extinct seven-star demon spider. It is very rare. Maybe someone paid for it. Half Demon was captured by the two of you, and this is your spoil."

Yang Baozhen's husband was devilish. A son had thought about it for five years, and a son had been wandering in the mortal world and could never return to the old ancestor peak of Pangshan. These things were all related to Mu Xingqiu, but she did not show any emotional changes at all. She looked like she was doing business.

Mu Xingqiu admired this female Taoist priest very much because he knew that Yang Baozhen actually hated him very much.

"Is Feiba telling the truth? Are there any demon clans in the Taoist dynasty?"

As a lowly Taoist priest, Mu Xingqiu was not qualified to ask such questions, so Yang Baozhen answered very perfunctorily, "We used the mind control technique for him. His memory was very confusing, and he couldn't tell the difference between imagination and reality. However, through him, we learned more about Yi Shijun."

Mu Xingqiu refused to end the conversation like this. "I think the demon king Qi Wushang is suspicious. Is anyone monitoring him in Pang Shan?"

"Pang Shan is doing a lot of things." Yang Baozhen said in a clear tone of chaoticism.

After leaving the living room, Mu Xingqiu said to Fangfang: "Do you have this feeling? We are like Pang Shan's guests. Although we practice there and claim to be Taoist priests of Pang Shan, we are not qualified to participate in the 'thing' there?"

Fangfang did not laugh this time, but thought about it carefully for a while, "Pang Shan's purpose is probably to let us concentrate on our practice."

Mu Xingqiu nodded and said nothing more. The mind control technique can dig out all a person's memories. No matter how many secrets Feiba hid in his heart, the higher Taoists already knew it, and he really didn't need to worry about it.

Yang Qingyin and others were waiting for them, "Let's go to the night market later, buy the last little materials, and leave tomorrow. There is no battle here on Qishan. We have to refine magic weapons as soon as possible, and we can still catch up with the decisive battle in Luanjing Mountain."

There is a slight difference between the night market and the daytime. The goods have almost not changed, but both buyers and sellers like to cover their faces in various ways. The transaction process is relatively simple, and it often ends in a few words. Occasionally, someone will buy good things at a very low price.

This is a fair deal, and the oil lamps on the Zhenqi floor will not shine because of this.

The demon clan likes the night market the most. Night colors and hoods can reduce their contact with Taoist priests. Those demon clans who have lived in Qishan for many years can only rely on the night market to afford the high room rates.

Xin Youtao inquired in detail, "There are many specialties in the land of demons and the deep sea, except for demons. Most people cannot get it at all. For example, the magic bellflower only grows in the extreme north and is one of the important raw materials of the elixir. You can sell it at a good price when you get it at Qishan, and then use it to buy magic weapons made by Taoism, so that the two sides can communicate with each other."

Yang Qingyin regretted it very much. If she had known that the magic weapons she brought would have been sold at the night market.

After all, Qishan is one of the nine great dynasties. Most demon races do not like to come here to show up, so they always transport goods to Qishan through various methods and then entrust the demon merchants who live here to resale. This is a complex and secret business chain. Qishan only charges one-tenth of tax and prohibits private transactions outside Zhongwu Islands. Other than that, it is not a matter of no need.

Qishan is a unique Taoist priest. In addition to the few people guarding the Xinshitai, Mu Xingqiu had hardly seen the priests of Qishan on the island. He fought against the sirens. He was also the Taoist priests of other Taoist priests acting as the main force. There were only a few Taoist priests on the second floor of the Zhenqi Tower on Zhongwu Island. He rarely went downstairs, and Mu Xingqiu saw no one.

There are no other buildings on Zhongwu Island outside the Zhenqi Building, and there will never be bad weather here. The seller stands on the side of the road, sets up stalls in front of him, or places the goods directly on the ground. Some huge things have to be placed on the boat and compare them along the coast of the buyer.

Mu Xingqiu has already bought the materials, and this time he wants to sell the magic script.

He came a little late and walked around the island before finding an inconspicuous corner. He stood there with bald men waiting for the buyer, while Yang Qingyin and others continued to stroll. In addition to the magical materials, they also had to buy some fun things.

The island is very dark, and this is not a problem for Taoist priests. The casual cultivators and demon clans also have their own solutions. Mu Xingqiu saw many shiny eyes, and the light emitted could allow the owner to see the product clearly.

He did not cover his face like others, nor did he shout loudly. Bald man was very happy to do it on his behalf and sold magic books to every passerby. Many people were attracted by him. A demon clan even asked about the price of the head very seriously, but was scolded by Bald man.

Someone remembered that this Taoist priest once sold a black turtle hard shell, so he came to ask, but not many people were interested in the Demonic Document Book. Although it was rare, it was nothing special. An unknown businessman checked for a long time and was willing to buy it with only one silver soul, but Mu Xingqiu refused.

An hour later, Yang Qingyin and others returned and bought a lot of things and prepared to go back to the inn to rest. Mu Xingqiu didn't want to sell it anymore and went to the dock with everyone.

On the way, he ran into a buyer who came over to him on his own initiative.

The non-demon Hong Futian represented the equal Taoist Du Fangfeng to buy this magic script at a high price. The only requirement was that Mu Xingqiu had to deliver the goods to his door.
