Chapter 66: A friendly approach
Su Du passed through the canyon guarded by young monks.
Reappeared in Waishan.
As soon as he appeared in Waishan, Su Du noticed something unusual.
In the remaining forests outside the mountains, the monsters seemed to be more active, and Su Du was even spied on by some monsters.
Su Du frowned. Maybe it was because he had killed many monsters in the inner mountains in the past few months, and he no longer had much fear in his heart. Even Su Du wanted to take the initiative and kill these little animals.
But just as he was about to take action, he suddenly remembered something extraordinary.
The Han family once imprisoned a third-level monster, and then it escaped and ate a Han family Zifu monk alive.
"Hiss-" Su Du took a breath.
I didn’t hear that this third-level spiritual beast was killed later.
Maybe he has already fled back to the mountains and gathered in the forest.
Then there are traces of how these little animals with their tails between their legs have become so arrogant recently.
Su Du felt uneasy for a moment and gave up his previous plan to kill the surrounding monsters.
The feeling of uneasiness made him move faster.
Finally, when it was getting dark, we gradually approached the main city.
When passing through the seventh spiritual vein on the way, Su Du was intercepted by a wave of early stage monks because he was carrying a large piece of monster meat.
However, after Su Du Xiao showed his hand, they all scattered and fled.
It seems that after the fall of the Han family, the lives of the people below have become even more miserable, and things like groups of people blocking roads and robbing people have begun to appear.
But fortunately, it seems that the Seventh Spiritual Meridian is still rented by these casual cultivators, and no sect disciples are living in it for the time being.
Although the sky has darkened.
Su Du still walked to Fangshi.
Many details in Fangshi can intuitively feel the overall situation of Waishan now.
When entering Fangshi, it turned out that the person guarding Fangshi was no longer a monk from the Han family.
It is extremely natural that the Han family has undoubtedly become a thing of the past.
This city has been taken over by the Shenxiao Sect.
He was patrolled and guarded by a group of young disciples, with arrogance and disdain for the local cultivators on their faces.
Su Du lowered his head, found an empty stall, and handed over some broken loose crystal stones to wrap for the day.
Then he sat back with his sleeves rolled up and placed two hundred kilograms of spirit animal meat on the stall. After a while, a large number of monks gathered around him.
Ask for price.
Su Du remembered that the price of ordinary spirit beast meat was about two pieces of low-grade spirit stones for ten kilograms of meat.
However, considering that the black panther had just been killed and had a strong spiritual energy, Su Du offered three yuan and ten kilograms of low-grade spiritual stones at a price. As soon as he said this, he immediately caused an uproar among the monks.
Su Du found out after listening to some more discussions.
It turns out that with the cold winter approaching recently, it is becoming more and more difficult to hunt monsters, and every time you enter the inner mountain, you have to pay a toll for the Shenxiao Sect's spiritual stones.
As for the Outer Mountain, with the third-level Ziyou Wind Wolf returning to the forest, even though there has been no big action recently, with Ziyou Wind Wolf, the veteran Overlord of the Outer Mountain, taking charge, the monster beasts in the Outer Mountain have also begun to become active.
p>
For monks, hunting monsters becomes more difficult.
Su Du saw his customers frantically rushing to sell and buy meat.
In order to prevent stampedes and damage to the market price balance of meat, the price was raised again to eight low-grade spiritual stones for ten kilograms.
As a result, the crowd rioted for a while, but continued to buy animal meat.
In a short time, Su Du earned nearly a hundred low-grade spiritual stones.
During this period, Su Du also tried to find out if there were any members of the Han family left, as well as other matters such as the death of the young master of the Han family.
But he didn't hear much about himself, which made Su Du feel relieved again.
If you are strong, fame will naturally be a help, but if you don't have much strength, fame alone will only bring a burden.
This also shows that the Han family has indeed been completely wiped out by the Shenxiao Sect.
The last monk who came to buy animal meat was a thin, small and dull man. Su Du had some impressions of him before.
It seems to also live in the third spiritual vein.
Su Du originally wanted to go back to the Third Spiritual Meridian, but he didn't know what the situation was like there now and whether he could continue to live in his previous residence.
Now I meet him and have a chat.
Su Du pretended to be flattering and said: "Fellow Taoist, this is the last piece of meat you bought. You live there, why don't I send it to you directly."
When the monk heard Su Du's words, he said warily: "No need, it's just nearby."
Su Du laughed, put away the spirit stone and said no more.
But after Su Du sold the meat, he quietly followed the monk and found that the man was heading straight for the third spiritual vein.
Su Du thought slightly and chose to go along.
The situation in the third spiritual vein is somewhat special. In the past, half of the third spiritual vein lived in monks from the Xuanyang Sect, and the other half consisted of middle-to-late-stage monks who mostly did not belong to the Han family in the outer mountains and were still considered casual cultivators.
It is considered a not weak force, so there is still a chance for it to become more stable in the current chaos.
Su Du could actually go directly to Xuanyang Inn in the inner city to ask about the situation, but he hesitated and did not act rashly.
I have heard before that the two sects of Xuanyang Shenxiao each occupy the first and second spiritual veins of the inner city. Who knows if the inner city is now a powder keg or a paste basin, and Su Du is not ready to get involved for the time being.
The monk in front seemed to have noticed Su Du following him. He circled around a few times before disappearing.
Wander around in several alleys.
Finally appeared outside a small courtyard.
He took out a jade tablet from his arms, opened the restriction and entered it.
On the wall of a building a little further away.
Su Du squatted and watched the monk enter his house freely.
It seems that the previous rental agreement with the Han family is still valid. At least some people are still living in the original place.
Su Du dropped off the wall and began to walk towards his house in the third spiritual vein.
We arrived at the place soon.
But Su Du was a little surprised to find that seven or eight monks in the early stage of Qi training and two monks in the middle stage of Qi training were fussing about something outside his Dharma Palace.
The ban was automatically triggered due to the presence of these people, isolating them from the courtyard.
Su Du adjusted his expression and body shape, arching his back slightly and adding a bit of a simple expression.
Walk over slowly.
He patted a monk who was in the early stages of Qi training and asked, "Brother, what are you doing?"
The monk who was in the early stage of Qi training glanced at Su Du, looking a little honest and harmless to humans and animals.
So he casually said: "Open the ban."
"What to do to unlock the ban."
"Let's go in and live in it. This is the third spiritual house, but you can't live in it. Before we lifted the ban here, we handed over the spirit stones to the Black Stone Gang. If you want to live in it, you can go ahead and hand it over.
”
"I remember there is an owner here." Su Du reminded.
The young monk waved his hand: "I know, but the owner here hasn't come back for a long time. It's probably because something happened in the inner mountain three months ago. This house is empty. It's better for us to live in it. Is there anything strange about this?"
."
Black Dragon Club?
Su Du frowned, what kind of organization is this, a small gang?
Collect the money and let them pry open other people's doors?
There is a right way to make money.
Su Du sighed slightly.
Squeezing straight into the crowd, an old monk in the middle stage of Qi training was comparing several animal skin scrolls.
Then draw the pattern on a piece of smooth ore.
It seems that he is trying to find a way to reproduce the token that can connect the formation.
Su Du looked at it for a long time and found something but not much.
But there is a real chance that he will figure it out within seven or eight days.
Then he snatched the animal skins away.
Then he shot out a ball of spiritual energy, disrupting a small half of the spiritual patterns painted on the ore.
The old monk immediately stood up angrily.
I was about to blow off my beard and have sex with Su Du.
But all he saw was Su Du's palm slamming into the protective formation.
The formation that originally shielded everyone quietly dissipated with Su Du's palm as the center.
The old monk immediately turned from anger to joy.
"What a friendly means, I opened it so easily."
Su Du touched his nose and said a little embarrassed.
Chapter completed!
