Chapter 650 Ferry
After Han Li and the others walked for several miles, they finally stopped in front of an arched cave.
Han Li and the other three turned their gazes to Hu San.
"This is what I told you before. There are quite a few small teleportation arrays going to the sixth city. Come in with me."
Hu San said so, so he stepped over the threshold and walked into it first, followed by Han Li and the other three.
Once inside, Han Li saw a small teleportation array with a radius of tens of feet on the ground not far in front of him.
There was a table next to the formation, and behind it sat cross-legged a green-skinned alien who looked like a lizard, and was sleeping soundly with his head bowed. He didn't want to talk to Han Li and the others at all.
Seeing this, Hu San stepped forward to wake him up, and after casually throwing a bag containing top-grade spirit stones on the table, he led Han Li and the others into the magic circle.
The green-skinned foreign race weighed the bag in their hands. Seeing that Han Li and the others were generous, and even gave extra tips in addition to the cost of the magic circle, they immediately lifted their spirits, and quickly urged the magic circle to send a few people to the sixth level. In the city, he did not forget to salute Hu San.
Hu San smiled and nodded at the other party, looking very useful.
After a flash of light within the magic circle, the figures of Han Li and the others blurred and disappeared from the spot.
The green-skinned alien looked at the top-quality spirit stones on the case table, with a wider smile on his face, and was about to count them again and store them in the storage ring, but his face suddenly froze.
He looked down at his empty fingers, and suddenly became furious.
At the gate of a teleportation hall in the Sixth Layer City, Hu San lightly tossed a green ring in his hand, and walked out slowly.
"If you don't fix your itchy hands, something will happen sooner or later." Seeing this, Shi Chuankong behind him said helplessly, rubbing his forehead and shaking his head.
"Fellow Hu San's ingenious hand-to-empty move is very subtle. He was able to completely cut off the connection between that person and his own storage ring in an instant, without being discovered by him." Han Li said with a smile.
Reigning Immortal Venerable didn't speak, subconsciously checked his storage bracelet, and then secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's been too long recently, and I feel a little itch for a while, haha...don't worry, don't worry..." Hu San smiled, waved his hand and said.
Arriving in Liuchong City, the flow of people in the plank road became obviously denser, most of them looked like human races, but there were obviously more foreign races of all kinds than before.
The shops on the mountain wall also became denser, with all kinds of banners hanging high and protruding from the corridors, most of them were shops selling spiritual soil and spiritual grass, and of course there were also some selling magic weapons of immortals. The shops of medicine and elixirs looked no different from ordinary shops.
After that, several people went to several other cities one after another, and the conditions inside were similar, but it was obvious that the higher one went, the more merchants came and went in the city, and the surroundings became more chaotic.
However, Hu San seemed to like this noisy environment very much. The higher he went, the slower he walked. On the way, he went to a fairy wine shop, bought some famous spirit wine, and took Han Li and others to eat. Hai had a drink.
Originally, he heard that Han Li was also a good thing in the cup, so he wanted to give Han Li a few pots, but because Han Li had been with Taoist Huyan for too long, he had a high opinion of the spirit wine and fairy wine, and he didn't like the spirit wine here at all. , to politely refuse.
By the time a few people ascended to the ground layer by layer, it was already half a day later.
It was evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun came from the west, reflecting the city built on the surface into a warm red color.
When Han Li looked around, he could see huge battlement buildings standing on the periphery of the city, and a mountain-like ferry boat hovered beside them.
"Fellow Daoist Heat, Fellow Daoist Lie, the approximate location of the relic of the Mantra Gate is in the phantom smoke swamp area of the Fuqiu Continent in the middle of the Black Soil Immortal Territory. It will take about thirty years to combine the ferry with the teleportation array, but the teleportation array can be used." There are not many places, and most of them are by ferry." Hu San pointed in a direction and said.
"Why do you need to take a ferry? Although these ferries are huge and fly smoothly, their speed is not as fast as my own flying fairy device?" Han Li was a little puzzled.
"What fellow Daoist Li said is true, but this Black Soil Immortal Territory has some special rules. Some areas are not allowed to fly over at will, and some areas are directly restricted. Once you rush over by force, it is very likely that you will be watched by the Immortal Palace." Hu San said. .
"I didn't expect that there are a lot of broken rules in this black earth fairyland." Reigning Immortal Venerable said with a curled lip.
"That's right. On the one hand, it's because there are so many mineral veins in Lingtian all the way to the south, and most of them are privately owned by various large chambers of commerce, and foreign monks are not allowed to intrude at will. There are a large area of poisonous barriers and swamp areas, and some places inside are still restricted areas like wilderness areas, where there are many terrifying monsters, and some of them even exist at the Daluo level." Hu San said again.
"These are all imposed by the Black Earth Immortal Palace to strengthen control. It's okay in some remote areas, but it will be more troublesome if you go near some large cities." Shi Chuankong took the words and explained.
"The ferries of all chambers of commerce have fixed waterways, which have been reported to the Immortal Palace, so they will not be affected." Hu San added.
"I think back when our Mantra Sect was still there, Black Earth Immortal Territory didn't have these bullshit rules..." Immortal Venerable Heat sighed sadly, and said.
"So, taking the ferry is indeed the safest way." Han Li nodded and said.
"Not necessarily. Although many chambers of commerce have reported and paid a huge amount of immortal essence stones, they will still be inspected by the people of the fairy palace under various excuses at some ferry points along the way, or they will accept the inspection honestly and delay it by a few minutes. In a month's time, or pay for another Xianyuan stone as the road money." Hu San shook his head and said.
"No wonder fellow daoists are no longer surprised by what happened in Floating Cloud City..." Han Li laughed dumbfoundedly.
"Haha, but with Brother Shi here, we don't have to be criticized. Among the ferries, only the ferry boats of Baizuoge and Guangyuanzhai will not be criticized by the people of Xiangong. In most cases, even temporary There will be no inspection." Hu San said with a smile.
"The ferry of Guangyuanzhai is a little farther away, everyone please follow me." Shi Chuankong said with a smile, and flew up first, galloping forward.
Han Li and the others swept into the sky and headed south all the way.
After flying into the sky, Han Li bent down and looked down, only to find that there were far more ferries on the ground than he had seen before. They were arranged next to each other, neatly scattered within a radius of hundreds of miles.
There are also a lot of squares and streets and alleys in the middle, which look very lively under the light of the evening lights.
After a while, several people came to a ferry with a large area and entered a main hall.
Seeing this, a gray-haired old man in charge inside immediately put down the teacup handed to his mouth, got up and greeted him.
It seemed that he knew Shi Chuankong, his face was full of smiles, and he was about to speak, but Shi Chuankong preempted him and said:
"Shopkeeper Zhu, long time no see, Mr. Shi came to bother you again."
"Fellow Daoist Shi is a rare visitor. Whenever you come, it's a blessing that my ferry is flourishing. It's not a nuisance. These are also your friends, right? Come, come... Everyone sit inside." The old man hesitated slightly, Then resume as usual.
While speaking, he led Han Li and the others into an elegant room in the hall, poured tea for everyone, and then asked:
"Fellow Daoist Shi always goes to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what's the important thing for you to come here today?"
"It's still shopkeeper Zhu who understands me. When will our Guangyuanzhai ferry to Fuqiu Continent depart?" Shi Chuankong asked with a smile.
After thinking for a while, the gray-haired old man said: "I just collected a batch of spiritual soil recently, and there are also a batch of fire kites and jade ganoderma in the medicine field that are ripe, and we can start off after loading, which will take about half a month. "
"Hey, so we came at the right time." Hearing this, Hu San shook his teacup and said.
"Haha, it's really a coincidence that you guys came here. There will be a gambling fight in the Colosseum in the Black Glazed City in a few days. You might as well go and see it. It just happens to be a good time." Shopkeeper Zhu said with a smile.
Hearing this, Shi Chuankong immediately became interested, sat up straight and said, "Is it the Black Bar Colosseum? What's the odds?"
"Yes. It is said that the ten battles this time will all use high-level monsters captured from the wild realm in the north of the Heishan Immortal Territory. Among them, the most powerful two have the blood of the true spirit, so the odds are quite high " Shopkeeper Zhu nodded.
"How is it? Are you interested? Let's go take a look together in a few days?" Shi Chuankong turned to look at Han Li and the others, and asked.
Han Li laughed secretly in his heart. He only thought that Hu San was addicted to drinking and Shi Chuankong was fond of gambling, so they could really get together, but he was not interested in this matter, so he shook his head and refused.
"If there is someone who plays chess, I'd like to go and have a look, but let's forget about the beast fight." Immortal Master Heat also said with a smile.
"What about you? Don't you think you're not going too?" Shi Chuankong looked at Hu San and asked.
"Go! Why don't you go? Brother Shi, you will lose every bet. As long as I buy from you, I will definitely not lose money." Hu San raised his brows and said loudly.
"Bah, when did I ever lose..." Shi Chuankong scolded angrily.
After everyone chatted here for a few words, shopkeeper Zhu arranged a guest house for everyone and led them to go back to rest.
That night.
Han Li was meditating with his eyes closed in his room when Immortal Venerable Nuan Huo suddenly knocked on the door to visit.
After entering the door, Han Li asked him to sit down, took out the tea set and poured him a cup of fragrant tea, then sat quietly opposite him without saying a word.
Just when the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward, Immortal Revenant finally said: "Friend Daoist Li, I don't know what to say..."
Before he finished speaking, Han Li waved his hand, and an invisible light curtain sealed off the entire room.
"Fellow Daoist Heat, it doesn't matter if you say it." Han Li said with a smile.
"Friend Daoist Li, you were waiting for me early in the morning, right?" Seeing this, Immortal Revenant said with a wry smile.
(There is a social event in the evening, so I posted the two chapters together today^^)
