Chapter 58 58: There is no incense in the market
The prosperous person spreads his legs and runs very fast, faster than a galloping horse. After catching up, they barked at the two strong horses pulling the cart.
Kenma was frightened and rushed out of the road, almost overturning the car.
Fortunately, the strong man's eyes and hands were quick, and he was strong enough to rein in the reins until the tiger's mouth drew blood.
While he was still in shock, an old man walked out of the carriage and slapped him in the face: "Zhao Wu, how did you catch the train? If you startle the young master, you will be killed."
Facing the old man, Zhao Wu quickly explained: "A dog suddenly ran up and barked at the horse, and the horse was frightened."
The old man also heard the barking of dogs in the carriage, but when he looked up, there was only a donkey cart moving forward slowly on the road, and no dogs could be seen at all.
"Butler, I have some doubts. The dog jumped out of the donkey cart."
"Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Zhao Wu replied: "That's not true, but apart from this donkey cart, there is no one else on the road."
The chief steward's sinister eyes kept looking at the donkey cart, flickering uncertainly.
The donkey cart is plain and ordinary, and the donkey pulling it is strong and fat, but no matter how you look at it, it is just a country farmer's cart.
The problem is that the location of this place is outside Yunshanfang City.
Yunshanfang City has always been a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, with many strange people and strangers coming and going.
Although as a member of the Zhao family, I am not afraid of that, but at least I have to find out the details first.
After all, the two strong horses that he pulls are not ordinary horses, but well-trained and strong horses that can rival war horses.
How can ordinary dogs scare them?
"Butler, do you want me to rush over and search? If you don't do anything, they will enter Fang City."
Zhao Wu said.
In Yunshanfang City, Yunshan Temple Master has regulations and order, and many things cannot be done.
The butler was about to speak when an impatient voice came from inside the carriage: "Why did the carriage stop? Also, what happened just now? It almost knocked me."
"Young Master, you're awake. It's okay. The carriage will leave soon."
The chief steward quickly winked at Zhao Wu.
Zhao Wu did not dare to say anything more and rushed the car with a whip.
Unexpectedly, the two horses were so frightened that one wanted to go east and the other wanted to go west. They pulled each other and became confused.
Over there, the donkey cart has arrived at the tall stone archway outside the market.
This archway is obviously imitated by the human archway, with three doors and four columns, all made of stone.
On the forehead of the main entrance, the four characters "Yunshanfangshi" are written with dragons and phoenixes flying in the air.
Couplets are engraved on the stone pillars on both sides:
There is no incense in the market;
There is a fairy family deep in Yunshan.
This couplet belongs to the "embedded word couplet" and is written a bit deliberately.
The meaning of the first couplet is that the business in Fangshi focuses on harmony and making money, and there is no dispute over incense?
Or it can be understood that when talking about business, there is no need to talk about love.
Chen Jin was too lazy to study the details and drove in.
I thought that this market would have checkpoints and the like to restrict entry and exit, but now I saw that it was open, allowing both monks and ordinary people to enter and exit.
It seems that the Yunshan Temple Master still has some tolerance.
But precisely because of this, Fang City has a large area and is mainly divided into two major areas: east and west. There are different areas and different businesses. If you want to visit them all, it will take at least a day.
Chen Jin brought Chen Min here not just for wandering around, but because their goal was the Yunshan Temple halfway up the mountain.
However, looking at the location of Yunshan, it should be quite a distance from Fangshi.
It was getting late.
He decided to spend one night in Fangshi. Even though it's night, the market seems to be more and more lively, with the trend of a night market.
As you pass by, you can see that there are fixed shops, temporary stalls, etc. As for the things for sale, there are all kinds of things, including food, daily necessities, and everything else.
Sitting on the donkey cart, Chen Min felt as if he had entered the city. He was dazzled and felt very novel.
In fact, it was the first time for Chen Jin to see such a market. He stopped occasionally to chat with the stall owner and learn more about the situation.
It was quickly determined that the normal sales of goods were also charged in currencies such as copper coins, gold and silver.
As for things related to spiritual practice, that's different. There is also a set of transaction process standards that outsiders don't know much about.
Chen Jin himself has a complete set of perfect cultivation methods, and he is not inferior to others in this regard. But that doesn't mean he can be completely self-sufficient. It's impossible.
In the path of cultivation, as the cultivation level increases, the resources required will also increase significantly.
Now Chen Jin is in the middle stage of refining and transforming qi. At this stage, the main demand is the supply and demand of food. After breaking through to the third realm and beginning to enter the stage of "refining qi and transforming into a god", the way of practice will change drastically, and it will be very different.
Naturally, he had to take precautions and make preparations in advance.
In addition, Chen Jin also wanted to refine a sword.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
A real sword!
From his point of view, unless it is not refined, once it is fired, it should be a good quality sword.
Of course, it would be even better if we could directly obtain the real finished product.
However, such a thing is rare. Chen Jin will not think about it until there is definite news.
So he really has a lot of things to do next, but he can arrange them in an orderly manner and there is no need to be urgent.
This time when I came to Yunshan Temple, in addition to sending Chen Min to get started, Chen Jin himself also had needs.
Relying on individuals to find and buy a large amount of cultivation resources is too inefficient and uneconomical.
For example, if the materials used to refine the Kuixing Wenhuo Lamp are not delivered to you by the temple master, how can they be easily refined?
After the last dealings, Chen Jin believed that Yunshan Guanzhu would be a good partner.
As long as you put forward a condition that the other party cannot refuse, I believe that the reasonable viewer will readily agree.
Moreover, looking at the high mountains and the threatening situation, it seems that there is a dragon vein hidden here, so it is indeed a good place.
Even if it's not a real blessed land, it's still pretty close.
A quarter of an hour later, Chen Jin found an inn in Fangshi with a very down-to-earth name: Yuelai Inn.
Obvious national chain.
The inn is in good condition and the price is decent.
After Chen Min heard the price of one night's stay, his eyes were blank and surprised.
Chen Jin didn't care. After receiving the thank-you gift from Hu Yuanwai, he didn't dare to say that he was rich, but Qianqian was no problem.
Staying in an inn and renting two rooms is not stressful.
After they settled in, a while later, the Zhao family's carriage also arrived.
After asking the housekeeper and the young master to get out of the car, Zhao Wu drove the carriage to a shanty in the side yard of the inn and parked it.
He recognized the donkey cart at a glance, and his anger suddenly surged up. Seeing that there was no one around, he was going to give the donkey a kick.
Unexpectedly, the donkey was very alert. When he saw a stranger trying to get close to his butt, he suddenly stuck out his hind hooves.
Zhao Wu was kicked and almost fell to the ground. He was so angry that he was about to explode, but he saw the waiter in charge of taking care of the livestock coming over with a load of fodder.
Zhao Wu had no choice but to suffer the loss of being dumb and ran to complain to the chief steward angrily.
The chief steward stroked his beard and said: "Those who can stay in the inn are indeed no ordinary country folk. Don't act rashly on this matter. We will talk about it when we see someone tomorrow."
Looking at the rankings on the list, Xianxia ranks third in the category and 33rd in the overall list. Is it possible that there is still a chance to squeeze into the top 20 range in the last two or three days?
