Chapter 43: Return to the City of Fire
Mo Chong was silent for a moment, then clenched his fists and said, "Thank you senior sister for reminding me." When I meet him next, I will definitely deal with it carefully. β
Li Honglian nodded. She came to see Mo Chong just to talk about this one thing. Now that the matter has been done, I will not stop doing any more and turn away.
Mo Chong hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior sister." Senior Brother Lin still has some left in the world, so he ...... "Mo Chong admired Li Honglian's character very much, and accepted her love for this news, so he told Li Honglian where Lin Jiannan really died. Although there is nothing left there, there is still a robe worn by Senior Brother Lin, which can also be commemorated.
After listening to Mo Chong's words, Li Honglian's body shook. But he didn't look back, he didn't speak, he just walked forward step by step, and gradually disappeared into the green woods.
"Xiao Changqing ......"
Mo Chong muttered a whisper in his mouth, and then laughed. What he has trouble now is this, this Xiao Changqing is just trying to compete, and it's really nothing to say. Thinking like this, Mo Chong left this person's name behind him and strode towards the mountain gate.
Soon, Mo Chong walked to the passage of Wanzhang Mountain. Mo Chong has walked back and forth several times in this passage, and Mo Chong has also found the answer to the familiarity that the mountain wall patterns on both sides gave him at the beginning. At first glance, the lines of some of these patterns look close to human shapes and resemble punching. Mo Chong was already proficient in martial arts fists and feet, and when he saw these patterns, it was no wonder that he felt a little familiar. But then again, the patterns formed by the melting of black iron on the mountain walls on both sides are large and small, thousands and thousands, and it is really not surprising that there are dozens of paintings that look like human forms.
"Who?"
As he approached the exit of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect's mountain gate, a middle-aged man at the twelfth level of the Qi cultivation period flashed out of the formation prohibition and stopped in front of Mo Chong.
Mo Chong didn't talk nonsense, took out the outgoing documents in his arms, and sent them to the middle-aged man along with the nameplate, and said, "Go out, there are documents here." β
The middle-aged man originally just stretched out a hand, ready to pick up the document in Mo Chong's hand with one hand, but when he saw the golden nameplate in Mo Chong's hand, his face suddenly changed, and he changed to two hands to pick it up, and his face was a little more respectful. After reading the documents in Mo Chong's hand, the middle-aged man returned the documents with both hands, and said with a smile: "Oh! It turns out that Senior Brother Mo is going out." There is no problem with the paperwork!Senior Brother Mo, please!" As he spoke, he got out of the way.
Mo Chong nodded, took back the paperwork, thanked him, and strode out.
Southern Liang Kingdom, Flame City.
The City of Fire is as lively as ever. Mo Chong stood outside the gate of Flame City, looking at the endless stream of monks coming in and out, his heart was full of emotion. When he left, he was still thinking that he probably wouldn't be in Flame City for a long time. Unexpectedly, only two months later, I set foot on this big city again.
As the people flowed into the city, Mo Chong did not go to Tie Zeju, which was a big bull, but walked towards the south of the city. To the south of the city is the farthest place in the Flame City from the Earth's Fire Vein. The other east, west, and north directions have the extension of the earth fire vein, but the south of the city does not. Therefore, after walking for a while, more than half of the pedestrians on the road have been reduced, and the shops on both sides have gradually become residences. After walking for a while, there were no more shops on either side, and the pedestrians on the road became sparse. What is Mo Chong doing all the way here?
The answer was soon revealed. I saw Mo Chong walking to a remote alley, and when he passed the back door of an ordinary house, he suddenly stopped, turned around, stretched out his hand and pushed open the hidden wooden door, and flashed in sideways. Inside the back door was a small courtyard, and in the courtyard there was a small stone table, and two old men were sitting at the stone table. The two of them turned a blind eye to the sudden flash of Mo Chong. And Mo Chong actually ignored the two of them, and just entered the room.
Walking into the hall, he lifted a pair of words hanging on the wall, and suddenly revealed a passage that extended downward behind the calligraphy and painting. Mo Chong walked into the passage with his feet raised, the calligraphy and paintings fell, and the hall was once again quiet.
Speaking of Mo Chong, Mo Chong walked twenty or thirty steps along the downward passage, and a light appeared in front of him, and after a few more steps, his eyes suddenly opened up. A much larger hall than the one above came into view. The hall was bustling with more than 100 monks with masks on their faces. Some of them gathered together to exchange things with each other, some whispered to the yellow-clad men everywhere in the hall, and more stood by the wall, waiting for the room in front of them to open and flash in.
Mo Chong's face also had an extra mask on his face at this time. Everyone who comes here has to wear a mask. Because this is a secret shop. In the secret shop, everything you can find in the market, it is here. What you can't find on the market, there will be a lot of it here. It's just that the price of the items here is at least 30% higher than that on the market. If you want to sell something, the price will be reduced by 30%.
Mo Chong's purpose in coming here is very simple, that is, it is a method to calm the mind and calm the mind. Walking into the hall, I came to a room with a small number of people and stood still. Mo Chong began to look around. A large part of the monks who were talking around were exchanging things with each other. After all, instead of selling it to the secret shop and being depressed, it is better to exchange it for something that you can use. The secret shop did not stop this. The man in yellow surrounded in the hall is the clerk of the secret store, if you want to sell something that is more legitimate, or urgent, you can directly consult with them. But if you want to buy something, you have to queue up like Mo Chong.
The reason why Mo Chong knew about this secret shop was that the secret shop found him. The City of Flames has many shops and monks of alchemy refiners. Most of them are clearly priced. For example, alchemy. Most of the shops that help with alchemy do not charge spirit stones, but play a three-to-one and four-to-one signboard. These three to one and four to one are the Dan rate. For example. Someone takes three copies of the pill materials to the store, and the store pΓΉ guarantees to refine one pill, and if it fails, the store will compensate for the original thing. Of course, if three parts of the pill material were refined into two parts of the pill or even three parts, the person who came to refine the pill could only take one part.
When Mo Chong first came to Flame City, he had no relatives and was unfamiliar with life. Since he wanted to use the pill for cultivation, he didn't have many spirit stones in his pocket, so he paid attention to alchemy for others. Because the competition is fierce. Others are four to one or even three to one, and Mo Chong's signboard is five to two. As a result, a greedy monk came to the door. In this Flame City, there are city lords, patrolling law enforcement monks, and they are not afraid of Mo Chong's debts.
And after Mo Chong received more than a dozen customers in succession, the people from the secret store came to the door, saying that he had ruined the business of other friends by doing so. Although others will not do anything to him in the city, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no trouble when leaving the city. The secret shop saw that he was a disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and he was a newcomer, so he asked him to change the ratio back, and he was not to blame for the past. In this way, Mo Chong knew the storage of the secret store. As for whether the secret shop came to him out of kindness or was entrusted by someone, Mo Chong did not know.
Just as Mo Chong was looking forward to it, the last woman in black in front of him also walked into the room. Mo Chong's spirits perked up, and he said in his heart: "Come on, it's finally me." When he looked back from all around, he began to calculate the price he could pay and what he might be able to buy.
After about a stick of incense, the door in front of Mo Chong's eyes opened automatically. That means, naturally, Mo Chong can go in. Mo Chong knew that when he entered the room, no matter whether he could buy things or not, there was another way out of the room, so he didn't feel surprised that the woman in black who walked in just now didn't come out, but strode in.
The room was simply furnished. A table with a masked face sitting behind the table. There is an empty chair in front of the table, which is naturally reserved for the customer. There is a small iron door behind the clerk and a large wooden door on the right side of the room. Larger doors are naturally used to allow customers who have completed a transaction to leave.
Mo Chong had just walked in, and he hadn't sat down in his chair yet. The yellow-clothed clerk behind the table smiled and said, "Isn't it Brother Mo?"
Mo Chong was taken aback and was about to ask. The clerk had already continued: "You didn't take off the nameplate on your waist." β
Mo Chong sighed and said, "Alas, I came in a hurry, but I forgot about this." As he spoke, he reached out and took off the nameplate on his waist, then took off the mask on his face, and said with a smile: "You know me, who are you?"
The yellow-clothed clerk didn't take off his mask, but just smiled and said, "I asked you to refine the pill." β
With just this sentence, Mo Chong understood, and immediately stopped asking. Instead, he smiled and said, "I want to buy a recipe." β
"Oh?"
"The method of calming the mind and calming the mind, I don't know if your store has it?"
The yellow-clothed clerk nodded and said, "The method of calming the mind and calming the nerves, our store naturally has it." However, since Brother Mo has come here, he must not have asked for those ordinary magic tricks. β
Mo Chong nodded and said, "Yes." I want a calming method that can suppress the demons of the heart. β
"Can you suppress the demons!?" The clerk in yellow was obviously taken aback, and after a long while, he shook his head and said, "This ...... I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Brother Mo. The usual method of calming the mind and calming the mind, run it once before meditating and cultivating, and try to avoid the appearance of demons in the heart, that is okay. But Brother Mo pointed out that he wanted to suppress the demons in his heart, which would be difficult. β
Mo Chong sighed and said, "Don't you even have your store?"
The clerk in yellow said: "Although my cultivation is similar to Brother Mo, I also know that although this heart demon is terrifying, with our current cultivation realm, it is really not easy to recruit it, brother is looking for this method to suppress the heart demon, is it too early?"
Mo Chong smiled: "How do you know that I use it myself?"
The clerk in yellow smiled: "Yes." Also. I made it clear that the magic that Brother Mo wanted, this store does not have, and Nanliang Kingdom may not have it. However, since it is Brother Mo who is here, I can show you a clear way. β
