Beiyin Great Sage

  Chapter 32 Situation

   "High-quality swords are on sale..."

   "Japonic rice, jade mushroom, grass fruit, wood pith... all kinds of grains are discounted!"

   "Lean meat! Lean meat!"

   "Armor, forging weapons..."

   At the market, there are still people coming and going, very lively.

  Zhou Jia didn’t wear armor today, but still had his ax and shield on. He walked slowly along the market, stopping from time to time to ask the price.

  In this world, Yuanli is a kind of magical existence.

   It's everywhere.

   Infinite uses!

  If you use the source force technique when speaking, you can roughly understand the meaning of the other party's words even if they are not in the same language.

   "How do you sell the pith?" Zhou Jia asked as he stood still in front of a booth.

   This thing was not there when it came yesterday.

   "Fifty yuan a catty, the wood pith can continuously nourish the body, and the effect of eating a meal lasts for three days, which is better than the top-grade meat over there." The stall owner looked enthusiastic:

   "How many catties?"

   "Forget it?" Zhou Jia twitched the corner of his mouth and shook his head slightly.

  He weighed it just now. This thing is not light. It is estimated to be the size of an egg for a catty. If you want to fill your stomach, it will cost two or three catties.

  The price...

   is daunting.

   "A bag of japonica rice."

   "Okay, Chenghui twenty dollars!"

   Japonica rice costs two cents a catty, and a bag of ten catties.

  The shape is a bit like rice, but it has more fibers and is rougher. It is chewy. The key is that it is affordable and hungry. It is the most common food for Huojiabao residents.

   Just two steps away with the bag in hand, Zhou Jia was stopped by a voice.

   "Zhou Jia!"

   Fatty Han and Zhao Gang sat on the second floor of the tree house and waved towards the street:

   "Come up."

  The tree house stands beside the market, the inside is almost hollowed out, and a tavern business has been started. There are three floors, connected up and down, and a lot of windows have been dug on each floor. You can smell a sweet wine before you get close.

  A banner was planted at the door, with two big characters of Fei Mu Shishi on it.

   Tavern!

  Going up to the second floor, Fatty Han asked Zhou Jia to sit down, picked up the flagon and poured a bowl first:

   "This wine is good, tastes good, and can refresh your face. If you drink it often, it can increase your energy. The key is that it is cheap."

   "Ten coins a pot!"

   "Try it!"

  Zhou Jia picked up the wine bowl and took a sip. The hot feeling went straight to his throat. Just as he was about to frown, a wave of heat surged all over his body.

  The sluggish spirit suddenly shook.

   "Good wine!"

   "Haha..." Fatty Han laughed loudly:

   "I just say it's a good wine!"

   "The owner of this store is a spirit from Fei Mu's world. This race is born with a high affinity for nature and is a genius in various industries, but its personality is too sensitive to be suitable for the battlefield."

   "Not necessarily." Zhao Gang said from the side:

   "Some spirits are natural archers. Although they are not strong, they are flexible and better at speed and concealment."

   "I've heard of it." Zhou Jia nodded:

   "There is a couple of spirits next to my tree house. They are good at painting and often go to the inner city to work for others. Unfortunately, the wages are not much."

   "Speaking of it." Fatty Han said with a smile:

   "How is your tree house?"

   "It's almost there." Zhou Jia took another sip, a blush appeared on his face:

   "The project will probably be completed in two days, and the rest are details, don't worry. By the way, what are your plans for the future?"

  The two looked at each other, Fatty Han thought for a while, and said:

   "During this period of time, we have inquired. The Huo family is the most respected in the Huo family. The source money and source stones we use are all released by the Huo family. I heard that the Huo family has occupied a source mine."

   "In addition to the Huo family, there are also the Qian family who do business, the Kane family who raises all kinds of beasts, and other forces of all sizes."

   Zhou Jia put down his bowl and listened carefully.

   During this period of time, his mind was mostly spent on digging the tree house, and in his spare time, he just went to the market and asked the prices of various things.

  I don't know much about the various forces in Huojiabao.

   "The temple from Fei Mu's world, although there are not many people, but there are many masters, it can be regarded as a big force second only to the Huo family."

   "The rest, there are Fish and Dragon Society, Heilian, Liurentang, etc..."

   Fatty Han picked up the bowl and took a sip of wine, then continued:

   "Small organizations like Situ Lei and the others, more!"

   "Generally speaking, Huojiabao's territory can be regarded as a mixed bag, but if you want to live a good life, it is more convenient and safer to join a certain force."

   "No background..."

   "Sometimes you don't even know how you died!"

  He shook his head lightly, with emotion on his face.

  Huojiabao is not safe, and people often go missing, especially in the west area, which is even more chaotic, and from time to time you can see dead bodies in places where the light cannot shine.

   There are no monsters here.

  Start...

   High probability is a human!

  The rule of prohibiting fighting is probably only on the surface. The Huo family is not very interested in managing the outer city which is not lucrative.

   "It's so complicated." Zhou Jia is actually a very simple person. Hearing this, he couldn't help frowning, stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples and said:

   "Which faction does Brother Han plan to join?"

   "Fish and Dragon Society." Zhao Gang said:

   "We found out that a group of Earthlings came here more than ten years ago. Although most of them are dead, there are still survivors. In addition to Situ Lei, there is also a deacon of the Ichthyosaur Society."

   "In the past few days, we plan to ask him to try."

   "Yes." Fatty Han nodded:

   "If you can join the Ichthyosaur Club, there is no need to look for a tree house. What are your plans, or come here together?"

  Looking at Zhou Jia, he had hope in his eyes.

  If there is a fifth-rank 'master' joining, he will be more confident, even if this fifth-rank has a lot of moisture.

   "I..." Zhou Jia pondered:

   "I plan to settle down first, and I shouldn't join any faction in a short time."

   "That's it." Fatty Han nodded slowly, and asked again:

   "Did you go to the inner city to find Situ Lei?"

  As for Situ Lei, because of the ownership of the super-quality source along the way, where is the Huojiabao? They still want things. They threaten and negotiate with each other, and the relationship is very bad.

   Now that I know the value of lean meat, I am even more displeased.

   On the contrary, because of Professor Song, Zhou Jia has a certain connection with him.

   "Yes." Hearing this, Zhou Jia was shocked and said:

   "I want to learn Origin Art, so I asked him about it. As long as I learn Origin Art, I can upgrade without killing monsters."

   "It doesn't seem easy." Zhao Gang was stunned:

   "Learning Origin Art costs a lot, and even if you learn Origin Art, it will be difficult to go up to the fifth rank. It is better to learn martial arts, which can increase your strength in a short time."

   "As long as you join the Ichthyosaur Club, you can learn martial arts for free, and you will also have the opportunity to learn source arts in the future."

   "Really?" Zhou Jia's eyes flickered:

"let me think again."

   "Don't worry." Fatty Han patted him on the shoulder:

   "That's what we have in mind. It's still a matter of opinion whether it will be successful or not. If it is true, we will introduce you to you when the time comes."

   "Okay." Zhou Jia smiled and picked up the wine bowl:

   "I wish you two all wishes come true."

"Ha ha…"

   "Done!"

  ...

  Backing to the tree house smelling of alcohol, Dai Lei frowned subconsciously, then greeted her with a smile:

   "How did you drink today?"

   "I met Brother Han and Zhao Gang." Zhou Jia put down the rice bag and looked towards the door, where the footprints were obvious:

   "Has anyone been here?"

   "Yes." Dai Lei nodded:

   "The neighbor sent a painting, saying that it is for us to decorate the new house. Also, Situ Lei sent someone a message, saying that you have believed what you inquired about."

   "Really?" Zhou Jia's eyes lit up.

  ...

after an hour.

   After paying the entry fee of 50 yuan, Zhou Jia endured the pain and entered the inner city.

  According to Situ Lei's instructions in advance, he walked around the streets of the inner city a few times, and finally stopped at the back door of a shop that looked like a shop.

   "when...when..."

   "Who!"

  The outer door opened, and a burly man looked over coldly, with a bad tone:

   "Who are you looking for?"

   "Is Master He here?" Zhou Jia took a deep breath and said:

   "I'm the one Situ Lei mentioned two days ago, here to learn the art of origin."

   "It's you!" The big man suddenly realized, and said again:

   "Did you bring the money?"

   "Bring it." Zhou Jia touched the bag at his waist, and his heart twitched again.

   "It was agreed in advance that the sixty source stones only teach beginners, don't think about apprenticeship, if you can't learn it in seven days, don't worry about it." The big man said coldly.

   "I understand." Zhou Jia nodded.

   "Yes." The big man opened the door:

   "I'll take you to see the master."
