Chapter 2208 Setting up stalls in the square
Zhao Hai was sitting in a restaurant in a city outside the Ghost Sect, drinking wine, but his ears were not idle, and he kept listening to what the people in the restaurant were saying.
This restaurant is the largest restaurant in the city. In the whole restaurant, there are many monks eating. These monks are casual monks, and the main guests in this restaurant are also these casual monks. .
To be honest, Zhao Hai is really envious of these casual cultivators, because here in the underground world, casual cultivators are basically not short of money. When they get outside the city, as long as they find a place with no people, He can make the place his own. As long as he pays a tax to the city that manages the land, all the income from the land will be his. He can capture some red goblins to cultivate it, and he doesn't have to at all. For management, just lie at home and count money every day.
This kind of life is really enviable, unlike in the True Spirit World, where the monks have almost no income if they don’t go out to do tasks, and those who have no income will They can only wait to starve to death. This is very similar to the people of the major sects in the underground world.
In the underground world, some disciples of major sects still envy those casual cultivators, because they can live a good life without worrying about food and clothing without being too tired. Like them, they have to go around every day just to survive. Go on the run.
But those disciples of the sect don’t know that the casual cultivators envy them even more, because they can practice higher-level exercises and have countless training materials. Compared with them, they can only For those who have enough to eat and drink, the monks of the sect are walking the path that a monk should take. Moving forward and working hard is what a monk should do.
The reason why these casual cultivators gathered in this city is because the city’s annual trading conference is about to begin. At this trading conference, all items will be sold at a higher price than they originally were. They steal money and sell it at low prices. At this trading conference, most of the items sold are related to practice. It can be said that such a big trading day once a year is a festival for casual cultivators. Many casual cultivators save a day's worth of The money is just waiting to buy some cheap things today to facilitate his training in the next year.
This trading meeting lasts for ten days in total. During these ten days, not only some casual cultivators will come to this city to trade, but even some monks from sects will Come here to buy some cheap stuff.
Although the trading conference has begun, the casual cultivators are not in a hurry to grab things, because they know very well that there will be no good things on the first day of the trading conference. , the people who went to buy things today are all people with low strength. They don’t need very good things, so they rush to buy them today. People with some strength will wait for two days before making a move.
And these monks came to this restaurant to eat, and this restaurant naturally became the most well-informed landlord in the city. Zhao Hai came here mainly to inquire about the information.
Now Zhao Hai already knows that his target this time is Liu Ze. This person is the youngest genius in the Ghost Sect. He is also loved by thousands of people in the Ghost Sect. In the Ghost Sect, he Almost everything is there, which shows how much the Ghost Sect attaches great importance to him.
To be honest, Zhao Hai really dislikes people like Liu Ze. Such people are like flowers grown in a greenhouse and are unlikely to become useful.
However, Zhao Hai also believes that the Ghost Sect, as a sect with considerable strength, will not make such a low-level mistake. They will definitely send Liu Ze out for testing in the future.
While Zhao Hai was thinking about this, a sudden voice came: "Brother, you said that this time Senior Brother Liu came out for the trial, was it really agreed by the sect? I am It’s obvious that Senior Brother Liu is very dear to the sect. How could he be allowed to come to a place like the trading market where everyone is mixed up? I’ve heard that someone from other sects is already eyeing Senior Brother Liu. I just thought. We need to get rid of this genius, Senior Brother Liu.”
Another monk hissed softly: "Say less. If others hear it, it will only put Senior Brother Liu in more danger. Okay, let's leave early after dinner to protect Senior Brother Liu's safety." "It's the most important thing."
The monk who spoke before couldn't help but sigh: "You said why we don't have such good talents. What? If we have such good talents, I can be protected every day like Senior Brother Liu."
Another monk said solemnly: "Just say a few words, it's not like we don't have any. Do you have such strength? Why are you thinking so much? Let's eat. After eating, we will go to change shifts. In fact, we are just decorations, you say? If a master comes, what use will we have? I have heard that the sect specially sent an elder to protect Senior Brother Liu, and we are just the monks who spoke before. He nodded and stopped talking. After a while, the two of them had eaten, paid the money, and left the restaurant, but Zhao Hai was keen I found that several monks left together with the two groups of people.
After these two groups of people left, two more monks turned around and left in the direction they were going. It was one person, and from the beginning to the end, Zhao Hai didn't even look at them. He kept drinking and eating there, looking leisurely and contented
Of course, Zhao Hai was not in a hurry, so the monks who went out had all the silver dust stained on their bodies by Zhao Hai. With the strength of those people, they could not detect the silver dust.
Zhao Hai has now touched the threshold of the dust-proofing realm. He also knows what the dust-proofing realm is. Although the dust-proofing stage can achieve the effect of dust-proofing, even if it falls on him He can also know a grain of dust, but it is impossible for monks in the dust stage to maintain this state all the time. Only when they feel the movement of their bodies with their heart can they feel the changes in the dust. .
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Hai can safely and boldly use Liuyin Chen to track them. He really wants to see who these three groups of people are.
The answer soon appeared. Among the three groups of people, the first group was indeed from the Ghost Sect, but just as those two people said, they were just little shrimps in the Ghost Sect. , a character that no one would notice.
The second group of people should be people sent by various sects to assassinate Liu Ze. These people have the same purpose, but they did not join forces. Instead, they fought together. One look at their appearance , Zhao Hai understood that they were doomed, and it was impossible for them to succeed because they were scattered.
But the third group of people is a bit confusing. Those people are not sent by the major sects to assassinate Liu Ze. On the contrary, they are most likely people from the Ghost Sect. They just want to see what they are. Who wanted to kill Liu Ze, and those who chased him out before had obviously been seen by the third group of people, and they were exposed.
Zhao Hai didn't care what would happen next. After he got the things, he went to the trading place to have a look. The trading place was in the main street and square of the city, where many monks lined up. There is a small stall with some charms, elixirs and other materials on it. Sure enough, as the people in the building said before, there was nothing good here on the first day of trading. Zhao Hai wandered around the square for a while, then turned back to his hotel to rest.
Zhao Hai did not hide his strength. He is now a monk in the soul-joining stage. Naturally, it is impossible to bargain with monks in the novice stage or the clone stage. It was too embarrassing, so Zhao Hai didn't buy anything from the exchange.
After returning to the hotel, Zhao Hai entered his room, but of course he did not really rest, but kept observing the movements of three groups of people through the space.
Naturally, the first two low-level monks from the Ghost Sect had nothing to say. They were just bait, or bait that didn't know anything. After they returned to the place where Liu Ze lived, they helped Liu Ze watch the door. , never left for a moment.
The Ghost Sect originally had a subordinate gang in this city, but Liu Ze did not live with that subordinate gang, but stayed in the best hotel in the city. This doesn't look like it at all. They were out for trials, but instead they seemed to be out for a trip.
However, Zhao Hai also knew that Liu Ze was right not to live with his subordinate gang. In that case, his goal would be greater, and the people in that subordinate gang were not necessarily very loyal. He might as well live with him. It's safer to stay in a hotel.
The Ghost Sect has directly booked a hotel on the first floor. Everyone else can go out to eat, or just eat something in the hotel. Only Liu Ze can’t do that. Everything Liu Ze eats comes from the Ghost Sect. There was a special person who brought it out of the house. He never ate anything from outside, or even took a sip of the water from outside. This way, the possibility of poisoning Liu Ze could be eliminated to the greatest extent.
Thanks to the two low-level monks of the Ghost Sect, Zhao Hai now knows the place where Liu Ze lives. Those two people are Liu Ze's gatekeepers, so they are naturally very close to Liu Ze. , and Liu Yinchen's reconnaissance range is only 10,000 meters. The place where Liu Ze lives is naturally clearly visible to Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai even saw Liu Ze.
But when he saw Liu Ze, Zhao Hai was a little disappointed, because Liu Ze's appearance was really a bit embarrassing. This Liu Ze had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and he had very little meat. Just looking at the appearance, he was really a bit sorry. audience.
But Zhao Hai is certain that this person must be Liu Ze, because beside him are two teleportation monks. These two people are like guards, following one on the left and one on the right. Liu Ze's side. Liu Ze, however, seemed to have been used to this kind of treatment for a long time. He still looked calm and did not look uncomfortable at all.
The second batch of monks who went out were just as Zhao Hai thought. They were all people sent by various sects who wanted Liu Ze's life. After knowing that Liu Ze lived in that After arriving at the hotel, they left the hotel as if nothing was wrong, but they didn't know that they had been targeted.
The second batch of monks who came to stab each other had their own residences. One of them even lived in the hotel where Zhao Hai was. This was somewhat beyond Zhao Hai's expectation, but Zhao Hai He had no intention of leaving, but leaving at this time would only arouse suspicion.
As for the third group of monks, they were indeed from the Ghost Sect. They had been following the second group of monks. After knowing where the second group of monks lived, they turned and left.
These three groups of monks came one after another, as if they were acting out a spy movie. However, Zhao Hai also understood that the more this happened, the more difficult it would be for him to assassinate Liu Ze, but Zhao Hai also understood There is no rush. He knows very well that the worst thing about many things is being anxious. As long as he is not anxious, he will definitely succeed. If he is too anxious, others will see his flaws, and then he will be even more worried. of danger.
After resting one night in the hotel, Zhao Hai got up early the next morning. After eating, he ran to the Exchange Square again. There were more people pushing and pushing. Things have become more up to standard. As soon as Zhao Hai saw this situation, he immediately found a place in the square, then took out a piece of cloth and spread it on the ground, and then took out a handful of talismans and placed it on the ground. , and then just sat there and made no sound.
In this trading place, there are many monks like Zhao Hai who line up stalls. Many monks will make some talismans or elixirs throughout the year, and then rush to get them on the trading day. Come out to sell. Although the price of buying it on this day is not high, sometimes you can exchange things for things and get what you want. This is the most important thing.
Zhao Hai took out some talismans. They were all low-level talismans, but the ones they made were very good. As soon as those talismans were released, a monk immediately came to his stall. This monk was dressed in a gray monk's uniform and had a weathered face. He could tell at a glance that he was a casual cultivator.
He glanced at the talismans on Zhao Hai's stall, and his eyes couldn't help but light up. The cultivation of these casual cultivators may not be very good, but their eyes are very poisonous. He could see it at a glance. These talismans from Zhao Hai are definitely good things.
The casual cultivator looked up at Zhao Hai and said: "Friend, how do you want to sell these talismans of yours?"
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "You don't have to pay for these talismans. I only charge some materials. The materials are The types are here. If you have these materials, you can exchange them with me. "If you don't have these materials, you can also get other things, but they must be rare or unseen. I personally prefer to study these things." Zhao Hai took out a piece of beast while talking. Skin, the names of some materials are written on the hide.
This is exactly Zhao Hai’s purpose. While performing the mission, he will collect some things from the underground world, so that people will not be suspicious, and he might even find two treasures, even if they are real. He didn't get it, so he didn't suffer any loss. The talismans he took out could be printed in the space as much as he wanted.
The monk glanced at the animal skin that Zhao Hai took out, and when he saw the materials written on it, he couldn't help but nodded. Those materials were not difficult to get, and the price was ten people. is reasonable and even cheaper, but he is not prepared to use it. These materials were exchanged for Zhao Hai's talisman. He turned over his hand and found something in his hand. Then he handed the thing to Zhao Hai and said: "Let me show you this. I have never seen this thing before. I don't know what it is." Can you change your charm?”
