Chapter 335 Trade Fair, News from Patriarch Hong (4000 words)(1/2)
?????????Jiang Yun showed a little surprise on his face after walking into the "Qingshuang House".
????????Jiang Yun just scanned it briefly and discovered that there were many stone caves behind the counter, and there were a large number of magical instruments and magic weapons inside.
????????Every magic weapon is restricted and has small formations.
????????It’s just a magic weapon, but there are actually seven or eight finished magic weapons for sale, which is quite rare.
?????????Jiang Yun also observed some interesting things with his spiritual pupils.
?????????"Is that resentment and death? Hey, it seems that these magic weapons have changed at least several owners and have suffered accidents."
Looking at the inconspicuous black and red aura wrapped around these magic weapons, Jiang Yun snorted in his heart.
"That's all, I'm just here to buy souls. What does the source of these magic weapons have to do with me?"
????????The shopkeeper in the shop is a beautiful woman with a plump figure wearing a red fairy dress. She is calculating the accounts at the moment.
????????Otherwise there were only two young women in pink skirts sorting the shelves.
After seeing Jiang Yun, one of the young women wanted to receive her, but the shopkeeper glanced at Jiang Yun and then whispered to the woman: "I will receive this senior."
????????"Yes, Uncle Master!" The young woman bowed and continued to work.
????????The beautiful woman walked to Jiang Yun's side and performed a Wanfu ceremony. She said with a sweet smile: "Junior Xu Qing has met my senior. I wonder what he calls me?"
Jiang Yun, who had spiritual eyes, could see through the woman's true identity with just one glance.
?????????"The foundation building is complete, but the energy, blood and spiritual power have been lost a lot. This has been replenished recently. The maintenance is good, but the foundation is not good. It is estimated that it will age rapidly in a few years.
"
????????Due to the female shopkeeper’s close proximity and her saluting movements, everything was completely white and could be seen clearly.
Jiang Yun's expression did not change at all. Jiang Yun, who has four daughters and enjoys all the blessings of his family, simply does not like the rotten food in front of him.
"No need to be polite, I am Ye Gucheng." Jiang Yun said in a deep voice with a serious look.
"It turns out to be Senior Ye, Xu Qing is polite. When I first saw Senior, I felt a sense of awe-inspiring sword aura and dominance with one sword. He really lives up to his name."
????????You are worthy of being a shopkeeper, the amazement and sincerity on people’s faces when you praise me seem to be real.
?????????Jiang Yun is so cunning and cunning, such compliments have no effect. He just hummed and asked doubtfully:
?????????"I am a little curious. Fellow Taoist Foundation Builder has placed so many magic weapons in the shop. Are you not afraid of someone coming over to do business without capital?"
Hearing this, the beautiful woman covered her mouth with her sleeves, laughed twice, and explained: "Senior, this must be your first time to Qiyuan Island, right?"
????????Jiang Yun did not deny it and nodded directly.
????????The beautiful woman had a true expression on her face and continued:
"Our Qiyuan Island is very special in this chaotic star sea. It is a neutral force. Neither the Star Palace nor other major forces can extend their tentacles here. The reason is that Qiyuan Island is composed of several
Forces with great power in the Nascent Soul stage are jointly formed."
?????????"Our shop is not talented. It is the business of Mingluo Sect, one of the Nascent Soul forces behind Qiyuan Island. In addition, there is a Nascent Soul monk stationed on the island all year round. It was just his turn more than ten years ago.
The ancestor of our Mingluo Sect."
Jiang Yun suddenly understood that his Yuanying ancestor was on the island, and anyone who dared to rob this store would be seeking death.
?????????“That’s it, thank you fellow Taoist for clarifying my doubts.”
????????The beautiful woman pursed her lips and smiled, and said softly: "All the monks who have lived on the island for some time know these things, and they are nothing.
????????I wonder what you want to buy when you come to the store? Although our store mainly sells magic weapons and magic weapons, we also dabble in other things."
?????????Jiang Yun repeated what he had said in countless shops before.
"I want to seal the weapon spirit for my natal flying sword. I need the essence of a metallic dragon. The minimum requirement is six, and seven is the best. Spirit stones are not a problem."
Hearing this, the beautiful woman shook her head and said: "Our store only has a few fifth-level and sixth-level essences, but they are not the essences of dragons and other heavenly and earthly beasts, not to mention that the seniors also require that they must be metallic.
, I’m afraid the entire Blackstone Island doesn’t have one.”
Jiang Yun was not surprised at all by this answer. He had heard it countless times before.
?????????"Since it's such a bother."
?????????Just when Jiang Yun turned around and was about to leave, the beautiful woman walked up to Jiang Yun, stretched out a hand to block the way and said.
?????????"Senior, don't be anxious. This junior has thought of something that may help senior. Will senior be willing to listen to the little woman?"
?????????"Oh? Just tell me and have a listen. If it's useful, I won't hesitate to pay you."
???????Although Jiang Yun is a little wary of this store and the Ming Luo Sect behind it, after all, the supply of goods in this store is not legitimate. But it doesn't hurt to listen to what the other party has to say.
?????????"There is no need for remuneration. I don't know what the seniors know. There will be a trade fair at the level of the Dan Formation Stage three days from now. The location is here."
???????Three days later.
?????????Qingluo Island, a small island more than four hundred miles away from Qiyuan Island, Jiang Yun had already arrived in just a cup of tea.
?????????"It should be right here, there are quite a lot of people."
Jiang Yun landed in front of a rock wall covered with vines on the island.
Through his spiritual pupil, he saw nearly thirty spiritual light spots a hundred meters underground, and most of them had reached the elixir formation stage.
???????? After observing the surroundings, he found that there were no other formations arranged on the entire island, only a small phantom formation in front was arranged to cover the entrance of the cave, so he walked towards the rock wall in front with confidence.
????????After Jiang Yun approached the rock wall, his figure twisted and disappeared.
After entering the cave entrance, what came into view were several maids who were in the Qi training period.
????????When Jiang Yun stepped in, the maids glanced at the orbs on the table. Then one of the maids stepped forward and bowed.
????????The maid didn’t ask any questions, she just said respectfully, “Senior, please” and led the way.
Jiang Yun followed the maid after hundreds of steps to a vast underground space.
????????This space is not a dark and hidden secret room like Jiang Yun imagined, but a small manor.
????????The top of the cave is an instant sunstone, which illuminates the entire underground space into daylight. There are all kinds of houses, green plants, and gardens in the manor, but they are only small in scale.
After the maid brought him, she performed a blessing ceremony and then left. Jiang Yun walked into the manor.
There are many stone tables and chairs placed in the garden of the manor, and the monks sit and chat in twos and threes.
?????????One of them, an old man with white hair and boyish face, dressed as a Taoist priest, was talking to a fat monk next to him.
The old Taoist priest's eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Yun, and he stood up and greeted him: "This Taoist friend looks so familiar, it must be his first time here. If you don't have anyone familiar with him, you might as well sit with him."
Jiang Yun glanced at the old Taoist priest and the fat monk next to him and found that they were both in the early stages of alchemy formation and had average spiritual power. They were obviously not from any major sect, so he walked over with confidence.
Jiang Yun walked to the stone table and clasped his fists and said, "Ye Gucheng has met two fellow Taoists."
?????????"Just call me He Laodao."
?????????"Jin Li."
After the three of them called each other by name, Jiang Yun sat down.
The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Yun carefully and asked, "Is this fellow Taoist a sword cultivator? I wonder which sect he studied under? Is it the Kuiyun Sect or Lingyue Sword Pavilion?"
"Fellow Taoist has misunderstood, I'm just a casual cultivator." Jiang Yun shook his head and replied.
????????The old Taoist priest and the fat monk glanced at Jiang Yun in surprise. Although they didn't say much, their expressions probably showed disbelief.
Jiang Yun didn't care and asked: "Fellow Daoist He, this is my first time to participate in the trade fair here. Do you know who organized it? How could so many monks in the alchemy stage gather together?"
?????????Hearing Jiang Yun's question, the old Taoist priest stroked his beard and began to introduce.
?????????"My Taoist friends don't know that the trade fair here is run by Taoist friend Ziyun. The time of the trade fair is variable, sometimes once every ten years, sometimes once every thirty years.
????????This is my second time, Taoist priest, there is still an hour before the start, and there should be many Taoist friends participating."
"This fellow Taoist Ziyun is amazing. Although his cultivation is only at the early stage of pill formation, he has done a lot of business in Black Rock City. I heard that it was because of a certain Yuan from Qiyuan Island.
The Ying Lao Monster has a long history. Therefore, no one dares to provoke him, and business goes smoothly."
?????????The old Taoist said with a look of envy on his face. Although he is also a pill-forming monk, as a casual cultivator, he has no backing. I am afraid that even ten of his own belongings are far behind.
people.
????????Jiang Yun knew clearly that there was a backstage.
The old Taoist priest was obviously a very talkative person. He quickly adjusted his mentality and started chatting about recent current events.
?????????"There are too many major events that have happened recently, but the biggest thing is none other than the new demon giant Bloodshade Old Demon that has emerged in recent months!"
?????????"I heard that this old demon of the Blood Temple is very small-minded and extremely vindictive. He is not only a casual cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, but also a physical cultivator.
?????????There are so many forces that have been bullied by him in the past few months! However, the small forces can only be flattering, and the big forces with the Yuanying old monster can only be polite. No one can
Dare to offend."
?????????Jiang Yun looked weird when he said this...
?????????"Master has been out of touch for several months. Could it be my master?"
People at the table next to them were originally communicating, but their attention shifted after hearing the old Taoist priest's words. One of the middle-aged female nuns even echoed with a face full of sadness and indignation:
?????????"Who says it's not the case? My disciple has already suffered from his abuse!"
