Chapter 52 Arrival at Shuiyun Town

The heavy rain continued, and the dark carriage made a crisp sound as it strolled along the streets of Qinglei City. Compared with the rush that was about to crush the rain curtain when entering the city, it seemed very calm at this time, even a little lonely.

The dark blue-clad young man sitting in the front room of the carriage leaned against the door frame, holding a purple-blue storage bag in one hand, and his thoughts drifted to who knows where.

He didn't know whether to be thankful or sad.

Because of the other party's kindness, he escaped a disaster, maybe he should be thankful.

But he couldn't be happy no matter what.

Maybe... he was not a truly ruthless person.

Lu Li thought he was cruel enough, until now he realized that he had always been kind in his heart, but when dealing with the enemy, he suppressed that kindness deeply.

The carriage left the city and continued to head southeast.

The Leihuo Mountains are located in the southeast of Liangzhou. The highest point of the mountain range is a thousand feet high, stretching thousands of miles from east to west, with branches crisscrossing from north to south, like a giant centipede lying down. Crossing from north to south is the land of Dagandongzhou.

Leihuo Mountain Range is a wonder of Liangzhou. The mountains, rocks and forests on the branches are all red, while the main branches are all blue, which is why the mountain range got its name.

This place is rich in various spiritual medicines, among which Leihuo orchid is the most famous, and there is an endless stream of people coming to explore treasures and collect medicines.

As more and more people gathered, small towns were built at the foot of many branches, and some forces also came into being.

This day.

At the gate of Shuiyun Town, located at the foot of a branch in the westernmost part of Leihuo Mountain Range, a black carriage came towards them.

The young man driving the carriage looked at the people passing through the street, quietly released his spiritual sense to sense it, and couldn't help but reveal a trace of doubt: How could there be so many practitioners.

He thought about it and got off the car, untied the carriage, and slapped the horse's butt, "Go, you are free."

The mutant horse seemed to have some spirituality. It turned its head to look at Lu Li, neighed for a long time, and galloped away.

Lu Li then touched the purple jade on his waist and walked in slowly.

The purple jade is called Hidden God Jade. It was obtained from Liu Xinyu's storage bag. After being activated, it can block any spiritual sense detection in the same realm.

This is undoubtedly an extra life-saving card for Lu Li.

Along the way, Lu Li found that this seemingly inconspicuous town was actually filled with cultivators. Although most of them were not very skilled, there were also some people who made him unable to see through.

In order to avoid offending others, Lu Li did not deliberately investigate the cultivation of a certain person.

As he walked and looked, he found that there were many shops selling cultivator supplies around. Out of curiosity, he walked to the door of a grocery store and watched from a distance. He was very curious about how cultivators traded with each other. Did they also use gold and silver?

This was obviously unrealistic.

After watching several people trade in a row, Lu Li realized that the currency they used was actually Ningzhen Dan.

After thinking about it, Ningzhen Dan, as a necessity for cultivators in the Qi training period, can be understood as a universal currency.

But now he didn't even have a Ningzhen Pill on him, so he was really poor. After just a look, Lu Li was ready to leave, but at this moment, the fat shopkeeper suddenly walked towards him.

He was suspicious at first, then bowed respectfully and said, "Senior, is there anything I need?"

Senior?

Lu Li frowned. Both he and the other party were at the third level of Qi training, so why did he call him senior? But it was not easy to ask directly, so he thought for a moment and asked, "Do you buy storage bags here?"

The fat shopkeeper's eyes lit up, "Buy, buy! Storage bags may not be rare for a senior like you, but they are scarce for us secular casual cultivators."

Lu Li nodded and threw out a storage bag, "Here, see how you take it."

The fat shopkeeper took it and probed with his spiritual sense, and immediately said, "According to the normal market price, we will take twelve low-grade Ningzhen Pills for this primary storage bag, but for the sake of the senior, I will give you fifteen, how about it?"

"For my sake?"

"Ahem, yes." The fat shopkeeper said while glancing at Lu Li's chest, as if he wanted to see more clearly.

Seeing this, Lu Li also lowered his head and glanced at his chest. At this glance, he immediately understood that the other party did not see through his cultivation at all, but his Qingyang Sect badge made the other party afraid.

It seems that the Qingyang Sect has a great influence in Liangzhou.

But it was good, this way he could sell a few more Condensation Pills, so he took out all the storage bags on his body, a total of nine, and said, "Sell them all!"

"This, so many!" The fat shopkeeper was shocked.

"Why, don't want it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The fat shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, "I'll get you the Condensation Pills right away."

After a while, the fat shopkeeper took out a large jade bottle and five small jade bottles and handed them to Lu Li, "Senior, a total of 150 pills, please count."

Lu Li scanned it with his spiritual sense and nodded after finding that there was no problem, "No problem."

Then he turned around and left. While walking, Lu Li thought about it and took off the badge. When you go out, you have to be careful about everything. People from the immortal sect like Qingyang Sect probably look down on secular casual cultivators, and there are not a few people who have offended them.

If someone hates the disciples of Qingyang Sect, wouldn't he be in trouble?

What Lu Li didn't know was that the fat shopkeeper closed the door as soon as he left, hurriedly walked into a fork, and stopped at the gate of a place called Shuiyun Village.

He straightened his clothes and then walked in.

The two guards at the door saluted respectfully: "Meetings, Protector Wang!"

The fat man ignored them and walked directly into the hall. He shouted respectfully to a rough man who was snoring in the hall: "Wang Fu greets Boss Xu."

"What's the matter?" Xu Shan leaned back on the tiger-skin chair, still looking up.

"Boss, another bastard from the Qingyang Sect has come."

"From the Qingyang Sect?" Xu Shan sat up slowly, squinted at Wang Fu and said, "Did you look carefully?"

"It's definitely right. I looked three times."

"What's your cultivation level?"

"Middle third level."

"Okay, take a few brothers to deal with him. Remember to do it cleanly and don't leave any handle for me, otherwise... you know the consequences."

"Yes, Boss!"

The town is not very long, only two or three miles from east to west. Lu Li walked to the end not long after walking. Half a mile outside the town gate, a fiery red forest from low to high, and a blue sky at the far end.

This is one of the branches leading to the main vein, the Shuiyun branch.

"I don't know where the Thunder Fire Orchid grows."

Looking at the endless red forest in front of him, Lu Li realized that he had overestimated the Thunder Fire Mountains, thinking that it was just like a medicinal garden, waiting for him to pick it.

"Forget it, let's take our time to find it." After a slight hesitation, Lu Li walked directly out of the town.

At this time, two women and one man were discussing something in a low voice outside the town.

Seeing Lu Li coming out of the town, one of the petite girls in pink brightened her eyes and walked towards Lu Li.
