The other people who came with Liu Ming looked at each other a few times, and they all showed hesitation.
They are all casual cultivators, and 30,000 spiritual stones are not a big number.
"This is thirty thousand spiritual stones."
Liu Ming shook his wrist, and threw a small cloth bag over his face blankly.
"This fellow Daoist is refreshing." The middle-aged man flicked his sleeves and rolled up the cloth bag. After sweeping his divine sense in the cloth bag, he nodded his head with a smile for the first time.
"Here is a time-keeping pan, which can be used to calculate the time spent in the grassland. These thirty thousand spiritual stones are a year's cost. After one year, the daoists need to pay some more spiritual stones when they leave." After putting away the cloth bag, the middle-aged man took out a white jade plate and gave it to Liu Ming, and explained a few words.
"What? Thirty thousand spiritual stones are only a year's expense!" The red-haired young man had already said nothing, and couldn't help yelling at this moment.
The others also looked at each other for a while, but after the big guy who had been here frowned, he looked the same, apparently he knew this rule a long time ago.
The middle-aged man gave the red-haired young man a contemptuous look, and looked like he didn't bother to pay attention, but he turned his head and continued to say to Liu Ming:
"This fellow Taoist seems to have come to Tianma Grassland for the first time. Then I will remind you that on the Tianma Grassland, no matter how high your cultivation level is, try not to conflict with those monster monks. After all, there are half of the monster people in this grassland. If there is a conflict between a monk and a monster at Wanshoutan, which belongs to the monster clan, this sect will not be bothered."
"Thank you fellow daoists for your advice."
After Liu Ming asked the middle-aged man a few more things to pay attention to on the grassland, he turned and walked outside the stone house.
Several others are still hesitating whether to pay the cost of thirty thousand spiritual stones.
As a result, as soon as Liu Mingfang walked out of the stone house, he was shocked by the surrounding situation.
The square city here is very small, with only one main street, and the exits at both ends can be seen almost at a glance. The houses on both sides of the street are also simple slate houses, and there are many air leaks, which look very shabby.
It was midday and there were very few pedestrians on the street. Liu Ming turned around and found that the sparrow here is small and well-equipped with all five internal organs. There are even two shops for grocery, spiritual tools, and Fuluo shops, and each In the shop, there was a treasurer who had a spiritual apprenticeship period to take care of it.
It's just that there are very few people in these shops.
Liu Ming pondered for a moment, and also wanted to understand the truth.
This is Tianma Grassland, and the cost of coming here alone costs 30,000 spiritual stones a year. The people who come are generally the cultivation base of the condensate period, and most of them are casual cultivators. Naturally, they come to the Tianma grassland not for fun, and they must have gone to the depths of the grassland.
Thinking of this, Liu Ming wandered into a grocery store.
"Is there a map of Tianma Grassland for sale here?" Liu Ming asked directly.
"Yes, but the maps here are divided into three types: simple, normal and fine, and the prices are quite different." The shopkeeper of this shop looks like a very savvy middle-aged person, and his cultivation is just like the middle-aged spiritualist. .
"There is also this difference, what is the price?" Liu Ming asked with a move in his heart.
"The flat map only records a few main roads and relics in the Tianma grassland, and a lot of content is added to the ordinary ones. As for the fine map, not only a large number of dangerous places are marked, but there are even some strongholds of the monster monks, all of them from the past. The monks were willing to take a big risk to investigate and label them one by one. A simple map would cost five hundred spirit stones, an ordinary one thousand, and a fine map would cost five thousand spirit stones." The middle-aged shopkeeper is obviously not the first time he introduced it, and he was immediately eloquent. Whispered.
"Your map is not cheap." Liu Ming said with a slightly raised brow.
"Senior, please don't get me wrong. As long as Jin Gezong is in charge of all the markets in this place, the map is at this price." The middle-aged shopkeeper quickly explained.
"Let's have a fine one." Liu Ming said with a thought, and at the same time his sleeves flicked and threw out a small bag of spirit stones.
He had already known before he set off, he knew that the Tianma grassland area is huge, and there are indeed many natural and dangerous places in it. The monks in the liquid phase can't be careless, and there are many demon strongholds in the grassland, which are also good for the human monks. There is no small hostility.
A detailed map is really necessary for him now.
The middle-aged shopkeeper stretched out his hand to take the bag, swept away his spiritual sense, and put it away with a smile, then turned around and took out a blue jade slip from the wooden frame and handed it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming put the jade slip on his forehead. After a little investigation, he found that it was a rather detailed map. In addition to what the shopkeeper said before, there are also the inside of Tianma Grassland and some small towns on the edge. The location is also marked out in detail.
After Liu Ming nodded, he put the jade slip of the map into Xumijie, and turned and left the shop with a flick of his sleeves.
After that, he did not continue to stay in the square city, and directly drove the cloud to the sky in the direction of the ancient city of Amano marked on the map.
And shortly after Liu Ming left the Fang City, on the streets of another small Fang City controlled by Jin Gezong, the simple and honest young man Peng Yue of Tiangongzong suddenly appeared.
After he entered and exited a few shops, there was a blue jade slip in his hand. After a brief scan of his spiritual sense, his figure was blurred into a yellow light, and he also went to the depths of the grassland.
Two days later, on the other side of the Tianma grassland, a certain teleportation circle in the Fang City to which Wanshoutan belonged, after a burst of light, walked out a pale youth.
This person was wearing a blood-colored shirt, and his appearance was extremely handsome, only a pair of pupils showed a faint blood, which looked a bit evil.
But seeing this person walking slowly onto the street, he stopped his figure, and a thoughtful color flashed across his face, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, the person walked straight into a shop on the side of the street.
And shortly after he walked in, the door of the shop here snapped and closed tightly.
…
Over a vast grassland, Liu Ming dressed in a green robe was driving a black cloud all the way, but he did not dare to fly too low.
The name Tianma Grassland was named because on the one hand, the spirit horse produced here, and on the other hand, because the grassland looks like a horseshoe on the whole.
The grassland is flat with few undulations. The ground is densely covered with giant grasses up to half a foot high. Whenever a strong wind blows, it can set off a water-like landscape, which is quite spectacular.
Although there are not many fierce monsters in the Tianma grassland, the Tibetan person is still very relaxed in the grass. After all, it is impossible for him to release his spiritual knowledge all the time and investigate the surrounding situation.
Every time he flew a section of the road, he took out the jade slip that he had bought for the map, and compared it with some prominent signs on the ground, so as not to go in the wrong direction.
Along the way, he occasionally ran into some monks from the human race and monster race, and he was able to avoid it, and tried not to meet other people.
At this moment, a rumbling voice came not far from the front.
Liu Ming frowned, stopped the black cloud immediately, and moved forward.
But on the grassland more than a hundred meters away in front, a white mist rolled in from far away, making a "rumbling" sound.
Behind the white mist, two escape lights were following closely, and people could faintly hear the voice of shouting.
Liu Ming's eyes condensed, but he noticed that in the oncoming white mist, there were a few horses half a foot tall and white as clouds, rushing towards the sky with their four hoofs stepping on the clouds.
"So this is the spirit horse?" Liu Ming was the first time to see the spirit horse in the most half-day work of the Tianma grassland. From the appearance, it was an abnormal horse, and it was not comparable to ordinary horses. .
The adult spirit horses abound in Tianma Grassland are sold at a price of more than one hundred thousand spirit stones. For most people, this is a large amount of spirit stones.
Although this kind of spirit horse is only a low-level spirit beast, its speed is not to be underestimated. It is almost equivalent to the speed of a medium-grade flying spirit weapon. If it is well bred and fed with some spirit grass, the speed can not be increased. few.
In addition, it is said that there is a very few mutant spirit horses whose speed is even closer to the best flying spirit weapon, but this is something you can meet and not ask for.
Liu Ming was thinking about it, and after a few flashes of light in the back, it was already close to the white fog in front.
One of the golden rays of light suddenly accelerated, caught up in a breath, and suddenly blocked in front of the white mist with a bend.
A group of silver light flew from the golden escape light, and with a "bang", it turned into a big golden net and flew down toward the oncoming spirit horse cover.
"Yu Yu..."
These spirit horses are almost the strength of the spirit disciples in the middle and late stages, and their intelligence is not low. Seeing the golden light cover, they rushed away in all directions in a sudden hiss.
The golden net was faintly tightened, but only covered one of the horses, while the other three had already taken the opportunity to escape.
At this moment, among the lush giant grasses nearby, several figures flew out with a "swish" and "swish", fan-shaped block in front, and raised their hands one after another, a gray mist exuding a strong fragrance. Roll out.
One of the spirit horses ran too fast and slammed into the gray smoke. His figure suddenly stagnated, his movements became a little sluggish, and it collapsed on the grass after a while.
"It's actually the scent of phantom soul, it's really a lot of money." Liu Ming had already stopped, after seeing this scene, after sniffing twice, he couldn't help muttering to himself.
The spirit horse can only be sold at a good price without injury. It is really a wrong choice to use a net bag or a scented style.
