After leaving Honglu Gate's external blacksmith shop, Jiang Ping'an and Gu Yunxu boarded the carriage to go home.
In the carriage, Gu Yunxu couldn't help but said, "Brother Jiang Dao, the Mysterious Iron Shield you ordered may be very heavy. Yunxu made a rough estimate and thought it might weigh more than two thousand kilograms."
"It is indeed a bit heavier, but its defensive capabilities should be good." Jiang Ping'an smiled, "I have already estimated the weight."
If he simply held it with his hands, it would be very difficult for him, but it was easy for him to use the Spiritual Sense shield.
Gu Yunxu heard what Jiang Ping'an said and stopped trying to persuade him.
A few days later, Jiang Ping'an and Gu Yunxu went to Honglu Gate's blacksmith shop. Jiang Ping'an paid another five spiritual stones and got his custom-made shield and flying knife.
After returning home, Jiang Ping'an spent two days getting familiar with Mysterious Iron Shield and the new flying knife.
The new flying knife gave Jiang Ping'an a lot of surprises, especially the Star-Sinking Iron Flying Knife.
Under Spiritual Sense's tens of thousands of pounds of force, in front of Star-Sinking Iron Flying Knife, the two-inch-thick steel plate penetrated as easily as water tofu, and the boulder penetrated like weathered stone.
"I finally have some confidence to go Taiming Mountain Market for a walk." Jiang Ping'an took back the throwing knife and said to himself.
Two days later, it happened to be the day of the Taiming Mountain Market market at the beginning of the month. Jiang Ping'an and Gu Yunxu rode to Taiming Mountain Market.
At noon, Jiang Ping'an and Gu Yunxu arrived at the foot of Mount Tai Ming mountain on horseback.
Jiang Ping'an looked up at Mount Tai Ming, and saw that Mount Tai Ming was about a thousand feet high. The mountain was majestic and magnificent. There was smoke shrouding it from the mountainside. From the foot of the mountain, it was impossible to see the upper mountainside clearly. Only a large outline could be seen.
Gu Yunxu introduced, "Those fogs are actually Taiming Mountain Market's defense formation. However, Taiming Mountain Market was established by the Qingyu Immortal Sect under the leadership of several small cultivating sects and Lineage. No one dares to take advantage of it. Those fogs are more about isolating mortals and not allowing them to be disturbed."
"It looks good." Jiang Ping'an smiled.
Gu Yunxu smiled and said, "It's not just good, it's very good. Once you enter Fangshi, Brother Jiang Dao will definitely stay here."
"Brother Jiang Dao, let's go up quickly. After entering Fangshi, if you wait a moment longer, you can take a few more puffs of the rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi."
Jiang Ping'an laughed and rode up the mountain, Gu Yunxu followed immediately.
Along a wide road up the mountain, Jiang Ping'an and Gu Yunxu rode to the mountainside and stopped, queuing up to pay.
You need to pay money to enter the market, usually one hundred taels of gold, but the market at the beginning of the month only accepts thirty taels of gold.
After paying the gold, Jiang Ping'an and Gu Yunxu continued to climb mountains on horseback. After passing through two or three feet of thick fog, light suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.
Jiang Ping'an didn't have time to observe the city environment, but first felt the rich and pure Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi rushing towards his face, making people feel a little intoxicated.
It is said that the air is sweet.
Gu Yunxu closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath intoxicated, then opened his eyes, turned to Jiang Ping'an and said, "Brother Jiang Dao, how do you feel about Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here?"
"Very good. Compared to Daming City, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here is at least twenty or thirty times richer, and I don't know how much purer it is." Jiang Ping'an nodded in admiration.
Gu Yunxu smiled and said, "Brother Jiang Dao, please come with Yunxu."
After saying that, she rode her horse and trotted a few dozen feet in one direction, then stopped.
When Jiang Ping'an stopped beside her, she pointed to the rows of houses in front of her and introduced, "Brother Jiang Dao, please take a look. Those houses are single rooms for rent."
Jiang Ping'an has long noticed those rows of houses.
The houses are all made of rock and look quite solid.
Gu Yunxu introduced, "These single rooms are not small. They are one foot wide and two feet long. They are made of rocks. They are not only hard, but also have good sound insulation. You don't have to worry about being heard by the neighbors."
"A maximum of two people are allowed in this single room."
Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "This is equivalent to living on a spiritual stone for a month, which is actually not too expensive."
Having said this, he said, "Take me to see the small courtyard."
Gu Yunxu was secretly happy and said with a smile, "The small courtyard is up there."
So she turned her horse around, returned to the main road, and headed up.
Jiang Ping'an Follow up.
After most of the tea time, with Gu Yunxu leading the way, Jiang Ping'an saw those small courtyards. Those small courtyards are separated one by one and are not connected. The privacy is much better than that of single rooms.
Moreover, Jiang Ping'an found that the further you go to the top of the mountain, the richer Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi becomes.
"Five people can live in a small courtyard." Gu Yunxu introduced.
Jiang Ping'an nodded. "Pretty good."
After watching for a while, Jiang Ping'an looked away and said, "Let's go to the street."
Gu Yunxu turned the horse's head and led the way for Jiang Ping'an.
The real city was built more than a hundred feet up the mountainside, where there was a relatively flat land with a large number of tall and continuous buildings. There are two streets in Fangshi. The main street is filled with various shops, and the side street is filled with street stalls.
The main purpose of Jiang Ping'an to Taiming Mountain Market is to sell a few bottles of Spirit Pills on hand, and then buy a copy of Talisman Drawing Manual.
With the panel, selling Spirit Talisman is the easiest way for him to make money, and the threshold is relatively low.
Since he didn't know the price of the Spirit Pills he had on hand, Jiang Ping'an first went into several shops selling Spirit Pills to ask about the price.
After some inquiry, Jiang Ping'an learned that a bottle of Spirit Guard Pill cost ten spiritual stones, Golden Marrow Pill a bottle of eight spiritual stones, and Blood Spirit Pill a bottle of five spiritual stones.
As for Joyful Union Pill, he would not sell such a harmful thing.
After finding out the price, Jiang Ping'an felt confident. He was not in a hurry to take action in the shop. After all, the shop had to lower the price to collect elixirs. The street stalls on the side street were a good place to directly contact the monks.
It would be great if he could sell these Spirit Pills for one more spiritual stone, but his time is not that valuable now.
Gu Yunxu accompanied him to the side street, guessing that those Spirit Pills might come from Young Master Huaiyin Wang Jiehua.
"Brother Jiang Dao killed Wang Jiehua even though he was forced to leave Seven Star City, but he did get great benefits." She secretly thought with envy, "On that day, it would be great if I could kill Wang Jiehua back."
Walking on the street of street stalls, Jiang Ping'an glanced at the stalls on the street and saw that most of them were displaying Magic Tool fragments, low-level Spirit Medicine, low-level Spirit Talisman, etc. Occasionally, there were a few yellowed exercise booklets, but no books related to painting talismans were seen.
He found an empty seat to the side and stopped. Jiang Ping'an took out three small jade bottles and placed them gently on the coarse cloth. He took out the pen and ink again and wrote Spirit Guard Pill, Golden Marrow Pill and Blood Spirit Pill on the coarse cloth, and also wrote the price so that the monks who passed by could understand it in one day.
Spirit Guard Pill is priced at nine spiritual stones, Golden Marrow Pill is priced at eight spiritual stones, and Blood Spirit Pill is priced at four spiritual stones and five hundred taels of gold.
After a while, a dozen monks came around to watch, wanting to see if there was any chance of picking up the leak. However, when they saw the price, they immediately dispersed and did not bargain. These Spirit Pills are too expensive compared to them, so I can't afford to miss them.
