I Have A City In An Alternate World Chapter 731

Chapter 731

731 The mountain Market (1)

In the following period of time, Tang Zhen did not stop for even a moment. During this period of time, he would keep the hovering shuttle and then rely on the magic carpet and his own flying skills to continue his journey.

In this way, his speed had undoubtedly increased a lot, and he was getting closer and closer to the edge of the battle zone!

When he rushed out of a Red Desert, he finally saw a huge barrier suddenly appear on the horizon!

It stretched across the entire land from left to right, like an extremely huge city wall, completely separating the two battlefields.

After seeing this mountain range that almost pierced through the clouds, Tang Zhen finally knew that the rumors were true. He also knew why those powerful cultivators were unable to easily cross this place!

At a glance, the mountain range was boundless, and from time to time, ferocious monsters could be seen flas.h.i.+ng in the forest.

Near the edge of the mountain range, there was an extremely large area that was packed with people. It was the Wanderer market!

Tents, mud houses, stone houses, scentholes, and houses built from logs could be seen everywhere.

These buildings were scattered and disorderly, built without any order at the uneven foot of the mountain, and in between them were criss-crossed gravel roads.

Cultivators and Wanderers of all shapes and sizes made a living here, and foreign merchants of all sizes were frequent visitors.

Here, human lives were not worth much, and people died almost every day. In the corpse pit outside the market, the bones had already piled up into a mountain, and the height was still increasing!

Tang Zhen’s target this time was two foreign nation’s National towers. Moreover, it was a cross-Warzone operation. Once it was successful, he would definitely be wanted by the platform in the Warzone where the foreign nation’s towers were located.

In this way, not only would he be made an enemy in the opposite battle zone, but there would also be countless cultivators in the area in front of him who would know the news and hope to exchange Tang Zhen’s head for a reward.

Therefore, it was very necessary for Tang Zhen to change his appearance appropriately!

Fortunately, Tang Zhen had already downloaded a suitable application that could easily change one’s body shape and appearance. Now, it was just right to use it.

He found a forest and entered it. When he came out again, Tang Zhen’s appearance was already like a completely different person.

At this moment, his face was full of hards.h.i.+ps, and he looked like a Lord cultivator who had gone through many vicissitudes of life. There was nothing eye-catching about him.

A set of old battle armor, covered with a cloak woven from some kind of monster’s hair, and a bag and a battle sword on his back.

This kind of dressing was very common among cultivators in Lou city. It was not conspicuous in a crowd and had a very low sense of existence.

This was the best shape that Tang Zhen had calculated after filtering and a.n.a.lyzing through the [ all-purpose electronic kit ]. It was the most suitable shape to hide one’s ident.i.ty in this chaotic place while avoiding unnecessary trouble at the same time.

After confirming that there was no mistake, Tang Zhen slowly walked along the path that had been trampled by countless people toward the Wanderer market.

Ten minutes later, Tang Zhen arrived at the entrance of the market. Under the gazes of several foreign cultivators, he stepped in.

Unlike the other Wanderer markets, there was no need to pay a fee to enter because there were no defensive barriers around the market.

However, it was not allowed to set up a stall here. One had to go to a designated place and pay a different amount of fees before they could get a place to do business.

Tang Zhen walked along the barren road and headed straight for the central area of the market.

Along the way, cultivators carrying all kinds of weapons could be seen everywhere. Wanderers with miserable and cowering expressions could be seen everywhere. In the gaps between the pedestrians, there were often children with barely covered clothes running through the streets.

If they came across a fat sheep that was worth killing, these children didn’t mind being thieves. After neatly taking away the valuable items, they immediately disappeared from the corner of the street, never to be found again.

When they pa.s.sed by a house made of wood and mud, a few women in revealing clothes, with eyes full of charm, were constantly calling out to the pa.s.sers-by, their words full of temptation.

“Come in and take a rest. It won’t delay much. I guarantee that I’ll serve you to your satisfaction!”

“We have a new girl here, her body is very soft, why don’t you come in and have a taste?”

Explicit words and unbridled laughter came from the mouths of these women and cultivators. Their words and actions were quite unscrupulous, and they didn’t care about the crowd at all.

When Tang Zhen pa.s.sed by, those women habitually greeted him before turning their gazes in another direction.

It was because his appearance was too ordinary, so even these prost.i.tutes who did not refuse anyone would subconsciously ignore his existence.

After walking for another ten minutes or so, Tang Zhen arrived at the center of the market and entered a pub on the side of the street.

The structure of the tavern was simple. Wooden pillars were used as pillars, and yellow mud mixed with gra.s.s was pasted on the walls. Then, it was simply painted.

More than twenty tables were placed on the ground made of loess, and cultivators dressed in different attires were gathered in groups of two or three. After serving two dishes, they would gulp down the turbid wine.

A strange smell drifted in the air, causing Tang Zhen to slightly sniffle. After which, he found an empty table and sat down.

At the table beside him, a few cultivators sized up Tang Zhen with obscure eyes. Soon after, they began to talk loudly.

hey, did you hear? Tucker’s gang was defeated. They disturbed the king-tier monster while transporting the goods. In the end, more than 300 cultivators were swallowed by the monster, and only four of them managed to escape!

hehe, I think it’s only a matter of time before something happens to him. Who asked him to be so greedy? he ran away three times in a short period of six months. It’d be a ghost if nothing happened to him!

“I wonder if they left anything good behind. Why don’t we go and take a look?”

“Let’s stop for a while. Do you know how many cultivators are looking for Tucker’s goods route? I heard that all his acc.u.mulated wealth and treasures are hidden in the cave along that route!

I heard that the four unlucky fellows who escaped were taken away as soon as they entered the market. They were thrown into the corpse hole last night!

If the few of you are tired of living, you can go and join in. I’m not going anyway!”

The cultivators muttered to themselves, greed flas.h.i.+ng in their eyes from time to time. It was obvious that they were extremely tempted by the goods route left behind by Tucker and the so-called hidden treasures.

However, they also knew their own limits. They knew that with their cultivation base, they would definitely die if they got involved!

Tang Zhen’s eyes moved as he secretly remembered this matter in his heart.

For the cultivators here, taverns were the best place to spread information. From the mouths of these people, you could hear about everything that had happened recently.

Tang Zhen silently sat in a corner as he quietly listened to everyone’s discussion. He picked out the information that was useful to him.

It did not take long for everyone to ignore Tang Zhen and even forget his existence. Only when their gazes swept over his position would they unexpectedly discover that there was another person sitting there.

Not long after, a pot of turbid wine, a plate of meat slices boiled in salt water, and a plate of bean sauce were placed on Tang Zhen’s table.

Tang Zhen randomly picked up a piece of meat and placed it in his mouth to take a bite. He discovered that it was especially chewy. The fragrance of the meat was also extremely dense. Clearly, it was a kind of rare delicacy.

It was said that this piece of meat came from a kind of monster that lived in the dangerous mountains. It was shaped like a Buffalo but had six horns on its head. It liked to live in groups. Because of its low level and good meat quality, it was often hunted by cultivators!

There were not many edible monsters in the world of loucheng. Most of the monsters ‘meat was sour and stinky, with all kinds of toxins. Once it entered the stomach, it would make people vomit and have diarrhea, which was extremely painful.

Even cultivators couldn’t bear this kind of torture, let alone ordinary Wanderers. Therefore, even if they saw the monster’s corpse, no one had ever cut its meat to eat.

Edible monsters were very rare, and the price of their meat was also quite good. Therefore, once they encountered edible monsters, cultivators would almost never let them go.

Picking up another piece of meat, Tang Zhen dipped it in the black sauce and put it in his mouth to chew.

No wonder that Tavern worker would give Tang Zhen a dish of sauce after ordering this kind of meat. It turned out that when the two were eaten together, the taste was even more delicious and rich.

Tang Zhen poured a cup of wine brewed with plant tubers. He had just taken a sip when he suddenly saw a young man coming in from the door.
