In the bustling spirit beast market, all kinds of regular spirit beasts for sale are squatting obediently in their own glass cabinets, eating the exquisite feed prepared by the merchants, waiting for their owners.
This is the largest spiritual beast trading market in Songhai City, where you can buy almost any spiritual beast you want.
Spirit beasts below the fifth level do not need to hold a certificate. They only need to provide the corresponding realm certificate. Those with a gold elixir level or below can be taken home directly after paying.
Most of the spiritual beasts above the fifth level are large spiritual beasts, that is, the range from fourth-level spiritual beasts to first-level spiritual beasts.
In addition to having a certain level, cultivators also need to provide a professional pet trainer's qualification certificate.
Being at a high level does not mean that you have the ability to control spiritual beasts and treat them well.
In modern society, there is actually an equal relationship between spiritual beasts and cultivators.
Sellers of spirit beasts actually act as intermediaries.
In the funds for purchasing a spirit beast, in addition to the cost of feeding the spirit beast, agency fees and monthly store maintenance fees are also included.
Of course, the largest proportion of this money is the employment fee of spiritual beasts.
Said it was to buy a spiritual beast.
In fact, you hire a spirit beast to fight for yourself, and the money is also transferred to the exclusive account of the hired spirit beast.
High-level spiritual beasts are intelligent and know how to trade and enjoy life.
Therefore, it is not surprising for modern monks to see some transformed spiritual beasts appearing in downtown areas on the market.
Of course, permanent employment buyouts are also available.
It requires the mutual will between the employer and the spirit beast to sign a contract.
The effectiveness will last until the employer becomes extinct, cannot inherit the spirit beast, or the spirit beast dies.
Such an equal and strict cultivation system was simply unimaginable aeons ago.
Zhang Zipiao was standing in this huge spirit beast market, feeling the noisy voices of people and the screams of spirit beasts around him, and suddenly felt like he was in another world.
A few days ago he and Li Xian watched a classic movie "The Shawshank Redemption".
There was an old man inside who had been in prison for decades.
When the old man was released from prison, he couldn't adapt to the modern world.
In the end, the old man chose to hang himself in the hotel where he was staying.
When Zhang Zipiao and Li Xian saw this, they also found two ropes.
At that time, Wei Zhi opened the door.
I saw two people hanging on the beam chatting...
They are eternal strong men who cannot die.
In a sense, it's quite lonely.
This scene at that time had a profound impression on Wei Zhi.
I always feel like these two strange uncles are doing some sort of performance art.
But now Li Xian and Zhang Zipiao, because Wang Ling can use them, need them to adapt to modern life.
Therefore, the two of them are also working hard to learn and adapt.
"Xiao Zhi."
The two of them were walking well.
Suddenly, Zhang Ziting called out to Wei Zhi.
"What's wrong, senior?" Wei Zhi showed a confused face.
"Go ahead and buy it. I want to sit by the fountain for a while. I haven't seen so many people for a long time." Zhang Zipiao sighed.
"Okay." Wei Zhi nodded and agreed happily. Before leaving, he asked: "Senior, please don't take other people's things randomly..."
"Don't worry, I'm now an advisor to the anti-pocketeering team. You have to lead by example." Zhang Zipiao responded.
Wei Zhi felt relieved. He saw Zhang Zitu sitting down by the spring. He stared at it for a few seconds before leaving.
Although he felt that he didn't particularly understand what kind of person Zhang Zipiao was.
But from the back.
He felt that the two new uncles Zhang Zipiao and Li Xian must have stories!
…
Zhang Zitu was sitting by the fountain, feeling the atmosphere of the downtown area, thoughtfully.
The modern cultivation society seems much smaller than that of the Eternal Era, but the sentient beings in front of him have become a condensation of the Eternal Era, which always makes Zhang Ziqi's thoughts go back to a long, long time ago unconsciously.
While he was settling, he was also constantly reflecting on the things he had done deep down in his heart.
Even though it has become a thing of the past, there is no going back.
After sitting quietly for a while, Zhang Zipiao received a call from Li Xian: "Brother Zipiao, where are you now? Why did you leave me alone in the meeting and sneak out alone?"
Zhang Zi snickered: "Aren't you going out for a walk with little friend Wei Zhi? The world is so big and I want to go for a walk too."
"That's it. I received a request for help from the Zhan Sect. They need to investigate a Thousand Faces Man." Li Xian told Zhang Zitu everything about what the Thousand-Faced Lord said.
"Everyone sees a different face, right?" Zhang Zi frowned.
"Yes. Because we don't know the identity of this Thousand-Faced Man at present, classmate Sun Rong is very troubled. As you know, that girl has a good relationship with Master Ling. If we can help, maybe we can ask Miss Sun to put in a good word for us. sentence."
"I understand." Zhang Zipiao nodded.
In terms of human sophistication, he and Li Xian are both experienced, so there is no need to say more.
"So what can you think of? A spell that can make everyone see different faces? Is this an illusion?" Li Xian admitted that he had vast experience, but he had never heard of such a spell.
Mainly, everyone saw different faces. Even Li Xian couldn't see through it. He stared at the screenshot for a long time and found that the person in the picture was a little lolita wearing white stockings... and everyone else. What you see is different.
"What a ghost. Now there is a legend in Zhan Zong that I am a lolicon and I am not a paladin." Li Xian held his forehead and felt a deep headache from this.
“…”
Zhang Zipiao held his chin and thought for a while, and then said: "I have thought of a spell, but that spell originated from eternity..."
"Eternal magic? How is this possible?" Li Xian was surprised.
"Although the probability is very low, I feel that it is not completely impossible to happen. Even though Wang Daozu has locked up so many people in the map, I still believe that there must be some people who have been missed."
"Brother Zi Tie means that besides us, there are still some of those Eternal Masters from back then who are still alive today? And they are still living a secluded life in the human world?"
"It's just speculation. There is no conclusive evidence."
Zhang Zipiao said: "But this matter is a bit troublesome. To be able to activate such an illusion, one must at least be in the Earth Ancestral Realm. But why would an Earth Ancestral Realm find such a little girl to make a deal? I don't know why. I can’t understand it.”
Things get interesting.
In fact, Zhang Zipiao felt that instead of conducting such a mindless investigation, it would be faster to go directly to Jiang Yingying and ask for clarification.
"Go to Miss Jiang directly? That's not good..."
"It's just a secret investigation. Since Miss Jiang has met him once, she will definitely make an appointment again."
Zhang Zipiao said: "Brother Li Xian and I will go to Miss Jiang's house to have a look at it tonight."
"Cultivation communities in modern society have wall-penetrating alarms. If you use the wall-penetrating technique, you will be discovered..." Li Xian was worried.
"Who said we were going to go through the wall?"
Zhang Zite chuckled: "It's all over if we just pick the lock."
This is.
He is good at his old job...
Li Xian was shocked: "Aren't you already an anti-pocket consultant now..."
Zhang Zipiao: "This is called familiarity with the business. If you don't practice for too long, your hands will become rusty. If I am a consultant, how can I be a consultant for others?"
Li Xian: "..."
