Chapter 135 Taimufang City
Taimu Mountain is one of the three famous mountains in Mingfu Province and one of the 108 famous mountains in Dahua.
This place is the place where the ancient god Tailao is revealed. Tailao is one of the ancient gods of Dahua, and there are many different opinions on the origin.
The most exaggerated one is "The Complete Immortals' Body and the Taoist Practice of All Worlds": The chaos was first opened, and there was a god called Shenglao. The mother and son occupied this mountain. In the Qin Dynasty, people called Shenglao, and the people made it the Holy Mother of Tailao. Now people call Madam Taiyuan in the temple.
The second is "Daozang·Xianzhenyan School", in which the Grandma, the third daughter of the Grandma, regarded the Grandma as the Queen Mother's wife, Qingfu, went to Fujian to support the land and live in it. She received the Nine-turn cinnabar, refined it and surrendered it, and returned to heaven.
Another thing is in folk legends. Tailao was originally the mother of Emperor Yao. She rode on the sea and met Tailao Mountain by chance. She went up the mountain to visit the scenery, was nostalgic for the return, lived in a half-cloud cave, practiced in seclusion, and ascended to the Tao.
Then, it is also folk mythology, saying that when Emperor Yao climbed Mount Taimu, he saw an old woman resemble her mother, so he named her the eldest mother, and later changed her mother to her grandmother and called her the grandmother.
Finally, it is recorded in "Sanshan Zhi" that Tailao was a man of Yao's time. He took the practice of blue as his career, was kind and generous, and was able to receive immortal methods and ascend to the Tao.
Based on these myths, it is not difficult to find that the time when the Tailao showed her sage and was enthroned in the age of the Five Emperors, and she has been passed down to this day, and she is naturally a first-class ancient god.
Therefore, there are naturally many magical things in Taimu Mountain. Even among the Sixth Session of the Jiantian, Taimu Mountain has another title, namely No. 1 Chongling District, Mingfu Province, etc.
The so-called Chongling District is actually the entire Great Hua Empire. For special areas such as the Immortal Dao Cave Heaven and Blessing Land, it is divided into four grades: A, B, C and D.
Ding et al. refer to those areas where the concentration of inspiration is significantly exceeding the standard, with relatively independent space, and initially produces void distortion and derives secondary void phenomena. They have an indirect positive impact on the essence of the living organisms that live there. Typically, they are blessed places in normal scale.
C, etc. refers to areas where the concentration of inspiration is severely exceeded, has independent space, and produces a large-scale void distortion and derives secondary void phenomena. It has a direct and benign effect on the essence of the living organisms living there. Typically, it is a super-large-scale blessed land.
In addition to the more independent core space, the rest of the impact is only strengthened on the basis of C and D.
The reason for this is that the main world's blessings usually have some other functions, such as serving as the fulcrum of the Jiuzhou barrier and maintaining the existence of the Jiuzhou barrier.
Taimu Mountain is a typical example. As the No. 1 Chongling District of Mingfu Province, Taimu Mountain can be roughly divided into three parts.
The Taimu Mountain Scenic Area on the surface is the first part of opening up to the outside world and also the part that ordinary people can see; the independent Void Cave Heaven inside is another part, which is a rather secret existence; the last part is a secondary derivative void produced by the distortion of the void at the junction of the Taimu Mountain Cave Heaven and the Yin World.
This kind of derivation void has mixed inspiration, difficulty in casting spells, and has the corresponding guardian of the Lord of the Blessed Land, so no one dares to take action.
In ancient times, it was mostly the relatives of the Lord of the Cave Heaven and the Blessed Land. The place where the demons and some ghosts they surrendered were living. It was the intersection of the Cave Heaven and the Blessed Land, the human world, and the dark world. It was called half a step.
In modern times, the number of demon spirits has decreased and ghosts has become severely alienated. Most of these half steps have become the market for cultivators, and it is also the largest unofficial trading place that is acquiesced to any place in any place.
In addition to a large amount of official materials for ascending the throne, it is also an important place for many monks to trade privately.
And here is also the first stop after Yuan Qingwei left Taiyi Temple.
On that day, after Dai Xing returned, in less than two days, the above application was approved. Yuan Qingwei, who obtained the license, finally took a "self-driving tour" and took a high-speed train to the vicinity of Taimu Mountain. Then, according to the change of inspiration, he entered Taimu Mountain Market.
This market is very interesting, generally maintaining the style of the Daxuan period, but the subtleties carry traces of other dynasties.
There are two different ways to do business here. One is to set up street stalls on both sides of the bluestone road four or five meters wide, and at the interval between shops. Usually, casual cultivators collect some practice materials during their travels, but they can't use them, so they take them here to exchange them.
This kind of transaction is a typical private transaction. Because there is no official attention, the official cultivation currency cannot be used. Most of them are bartered and may encounter high-quality things, but there is no guarantee of both reputation and after-sales service.
The other is a fixed store, which usually has an official license or is directly a stronghold of certain sects. It can use the official cultivation currency. The price may be relatively expensive, but the quality will not be too high. The only advantage is that it is much cheaper for the corresponding regional materials.
Yuan Qingwei walked and looked at it. Although there were many people in this market, people were usually separated by a distance. After all, practitioners usually don’t like others to be too close to them, so everyone has a tacit understanding to give corresponding space based on the intensity of others’ inspiration.
The cultivation level shown by Yuan Qingwei is not bad here. There is about half a meter of private space around, and you can clearly see the things on the surrounding street stalls.
He found that the things he bought and sold here were far more complicated than he thought, among which the elixirs, jade, and the materials left over from strange stories belonged to the most common category.
The second is the finished elixir, magic tools, and some spiritual medicines and jade production locations and strange information.
There are even some monks who "sell" themselves, writing out their cultivation and expertise with clear price tags, as well as the employment time they need and the corresponding things represent.
Yuan Qingwei came to a stall and asked, "How do you sell this information?"
The stall owner looked at the message Yuan Qingwei pointed at and smiled: "This friend of Taoism has a lot of inspiration. This jade ore can also dig out 20 standard-sized 100-year-old spiritual jade. Therefore, the price is naturally not low. You must at least get a piece of Ding and other materials, or equivalent amounts of low-level materials!"
"Ding and other materials? Converted to Lingyu, they are all from a thousand years old!" Yuan Qing smiled and said, "If this news is true, it would be worth the price, but how do you ensure the authenticity of the information? How do I know what you are saying is true? The most important thing is, don't tell me that this jade vein is within the territory of the Great Chinese people!"
"Then how do you need me to prove it?" The stall owner smiled and asked back. It was obvious that he had experienced many such questions.
Yuan Qing thought for a moment, reached out and induced the power of justice and authority in his incarnation of the divine power. The faint divine power turned into a contract and handed it to the stall owner, saying, "If a fellow Taoist is willing to sign, I believe you!"
Looking at the contract in front of him, the stall owner looked not very good-looking. Yuan Qingwei sighed when he saw this. Although he didn't know where he had concealed the information, it was no longer attractive to him.
