Chapter 30: Stepping into the Clouds Again
A long roar shocked a piece of water birds and beasts.
The man is hundreds of feet away.
On the edge of Yuntao Daze, you can vaguely see the rolling mountains in the northwest direction. That direction is where Zhou Hao comes from. Now, let Zhou Hao go alone again unless it is forced to do so.
And the entire southeast direction is full of swamp lakes covered with mud and mist, endless.
It is reported that the depth of the swamp is west, two or three thousand miles away, there is Leize Town Mountain, which is full of thunder and heavy rainstorms all year round, and there are also thunderstorms on the mountain without any grass growing, beasts disappear, and birds flying over.
And there are often monks coming and going in and out in Yuntao Daze. After all, there are rare spiritual grass and spiritual objects in the places where ordinary people are rarely visited.
But it is also accompanied by danger. Poisonous creatures lurk in the big lake, and there are many monsters. Within one or two thousand miles, it is still relatively common. At most, there are first-level and second-level monsters. However, what Zhou Hao wants to go is three thousand miles away. Even the foundation-building monks have to walk with them to take risks.
It can only be said that Zhou Hao also has a powerful heart that has to commit suicide.
On the edge of Yuntao Daze, a small market appeared in Zhou Hao's sight. It seemed that the direction was right. Here we passed by, we entered Daze.
After long-term development, the market has formed a certain scale and order. People come and go in and out of the Daze. However, it is basically a hurry. Zhou Hao stopped at the north entrance of the market and glanced at a few chatting monks not far away, and walked straight into the market.
The tea stall is not big, with a few pages of reeds covering the wind and rain. More than a dozen monks were chatting and fucking. A bearded man stared at Zhou Hao's back and the little monkey, and went to follow and take a look.
Alas, OK.
A thin child next to him only practices the fifth level of Qi cultivation.
He quickly grabbed a handful of fruit, stood up and followed Zhou Hao far away, and his eyes seemed to be staring at the storage bag around his waist inadvertently.
The market is not big, fifty or sixty feet from east to west, and more than a hundred feet from north to south. The roads are still neat, with fine bluestone sand paved, and the moisture that often rises makes no trace of dust in the air.
There are only four or five larger shops, and other small shops or houses are owned by monks who are fixed here, and they look a bit old and messy.
He drove into Zhao Ji's shop. It was quite clean. Three or four guys were busy with their own affairs. No one noticed the guests coming in. The shopkeeper was half-squinted and sat on the rocking chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Cough, a light cough alarmed the boss, and quickly got up and greeted him with a smile, shouting, "The distinguished guest is here, please come in quickly, and shouted to a friend, "Why are you going to make tea quickly, and then you reach out to Zhou Hao to sit down.
Zhou Hao sat down for a while, and when the tea came up, he picked up the cup and smelled it lightly. The sweet fragrance lingered in his eyes. It was a good tea.
Haha, the shopkeeper heard Zhou Hao’s praise and explained happily that this was collected from the mountaintops covered with clouds and mist in the depths of the Great Lakes, and was refined with a secret technique. It is really a relief to be appreciated by distinguished guests. Just treat them like them.
Zhou Hao was not polite, and after drinking Lingcha, he asked, "The shopkeeper has been operating this treasure land for a long time, so he must have known about Daze, but he doesn't know how to have Daze maps or the like?"
The servant next to him raised his lips and thought to himself why he thought to himself. He walked to the door with a swaying wave and squeezed with the thin monkey who had just entered the door, not knowing what to mutter.
The shopkeeper didn't care at all. The first time the distinguished guest came to Daze, there was a map. He shook his hand and took out a few jade talismans and arranged them in sequence.
Please read the guest. These are common map jade slips. Within two thousand miles, everything is recorded in the book.
Zhou Hao saw that the shopkeeper was quite generous and did not hesitate. He grabbed the jade talisman and checked it on the spot. The shopkeeper next to him held a teacup and did not affect his inspection.
After a moment, Zhou Hao asked, can the shopkeeper have more details?
The shopkeeper thought for a while, and it seemed that the fellow Taoist was not very satisfied! There was one that I got by chance, but the person who made it was, so the authenticity of the picture album was not verified. Is it true that I want to take a look?
Zhou Hao was happy when he heard this and said, since there is one, please bring it in, just count it together.
The shopkeeper was overjoyed when he heard this. Good guest, please wait and carefully take out a pair of leather scrolls from behind the counter and spread them on the table.
This picture is indeed different. The undercurrent water system, the growing products, what kind of wild beasts, the range is more than twice as large, and even marks the hidden locations of some monsters and dangerous places.
Compared with those pictures, it should be a deeper map.
After reading for a moment, Zhou Hao said to the shopkeeper, please ask the shopkeeper to offer a price!
The shopkeeper quickly replied, "Forget it, no one believes this picture anyway, so I just want to make friends, and there are a total of 500 medium-grade spirit stones."
The thin monkey with his ears at the door, when talking about the number of spirit stones, his eyes were filled with joy, and he was talking to his friend randomly.
Zhou Hao thought about it for a while but did not bargain. The map, for the sake of people, was just needed, so it was worth the price. After all, the shopkeeper would not cheat him just for a map.
He bought some supplies such as detoxification pills and jade boxes in the store. After Zhou Hao left, he headed straight to the south. The thin monkey rushed to tell the bearded man in a hurry.
In a hidden house, the skinny monkey reported with a happy face. The boy bought a few maps and some miscellaneous items, and actually spent 500 medium-grade spirit stones!
After listening to the beard, he laughed. It seemed that he was quite fat. I'll go there a few of you, and the others agreed. OK! It's not open for many days, so I'll do it.
Zhou Hao was not in a hurry to rush on the road. The road conditions on the edge were not very bad. After all, he was still too consuming mana when flying in the air.
Walking on the ground with light body technique is conducive to his adaptability and can also adapt to the environment. There are still some miscellaneous trees coming from the forest on the edge of the swamp, but they are much sparse. The pointed aquatic plants weave into a thick green blanket to cover up the danger.
In the blink of an eye, it was more than twenty miles away. Zhou Hao stopped and said to the empty grass and trees in front of him, "Don't hide, come out!"
A shaking, the water waves flashed, and several figures appeared in the grass and trees. A slightly hoarse voice came. The boy was quite clever and handed over the storage bag. I was happy to leave a whole body for you.
Zhou Hao couldn't help but feel speechless. He looked at the four people in front of him, the foundation building of a bearded 5th floor, the foundation building of a thin monkey with only a fiveth floor, the foundation building of a gray-clothed one-eyed 3rd floor, and the other foundation building of a second floor. With such strength, aren't you afraid of robbing?
Zhou Hao was in a good mood and said to the few people happily, "I will disappear immediately, just you crooked people, are you sure you won't die when you come out to rob?
These words immediately made several robbers furious, little bastard, you are looking for death.
The bearded man held the ghost-headed knife and chopped up, while the others were cheering for the bearded man. Zhou Hao waited for the knife to reach the door, slightly retreated his right foot, stretched his hand sideways, and bang, grabbed the bearded man's wrist, and the bearded man whose empty door was wide open was shocked and wanted to withdraw his sword to defend.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Hao's hands were like iron hoops and could not be removed at all. His bearded face turned red, and his forehead was blue veins swelled up and pulled his arms back hard.
Zhou Hao clenched his beard with his left hand and his right hand formed a fist, and he punched him in a heavy punch with an unsatisfactory force.
Bang bang bang, three consecutive punches, then let go, the bearded immediately crawled on the ground like a dead fish, vomiting blood, and losing all over.
He was sure that all the ribs were broken on one side, and the pain in his heart bit him.
My heart was bitter. This was really blind. How could I provoke such a bad star? The other three guys watching the show stood in the distance and saw the boss being put on the ground after a meeting. They suddenly shivered and dared not move.
Zhou Hao reached out to grab the bearded storage bag, weighed it in his hand, looked back at the three, reached out and took it.
Three monks without storage bags supported the broken beard, watching Zhou Hao disappear into the fog of the swamp, and stayed silent for a long time.
The little episode made Zhou Hao feel happy. Although there would definitely not be many things, it was a good start.
The bearded and four men were so scared that they fled back to the market quickly. Fortunately, the person they met was not a cruel and ruthless person, otherwise they would have been thrown into the wild.
Just as Zhou Hao continued to penetrate deep into the swamp, more than ten people flew out from the north of the market. The powerful pressure shocked many people in the market. The two leaders were obviously of Jindan cultivation. Soon, they rushed from the south of the market to welcome more than ten people in this group.
The leading Jindan monk asked urgently, "Where is the person!"
The clan elder, the man had been away for half an hour, but a few casual cultivators followed him, and it seemed that they wanted to rob the kid.
Oh! Then hurry up and chase.
Everyone scattered and found the location and immediately sent a message. If this vast vast lake has not followed anyone, wouldn’t it be a must to find a needle in a haystack?
Yes, the clan elders split up a few people and were like chasing them from the south, while the rest of them entered the restaurant in the market, waiting for news.
