On the morning of the third day after Zhao Hai entered Fengjian City, after breakfast, Yuan Jing found Zhao Hai directly. He was still smiling like that. After doing a namaste to Zhao Hai, he smiled at Zhao Hai and said : "Master Jinghai, we are setting off today. I wonder how you are preparing?"

Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "We are ready and can leave at any time. Do you want to leave now?"

Yuanjing nodded and said: "Let's go now. It's not too early. It's time to set off. By the way, you have prepared food and water. We have to prepare food and water ourselves along the way."

Zhao Hai nodded and said: "I have already prepared this, please rest assured, Master Yuanjing."

Yuanjing nodded and said: "Okay, let's leave now." Zhao Hai responded and followed Yuanjing out. On the way, Zhao Hai went back to his Zen room, took out his Zen staff, and then He followed Yuanjing out of the Zen courtyard.

Following Yuanjing, there were more than a dozen monks, totaling twenty people. It seemed that Yuanjing had already found everyone for this mission.

Zhao Hai followed Yuan Jing and walked forward silently. After a while, the group of people walked out of the Zen-shaped archway, turned and walked towards the city gate. When they arrived at the city gate, they found a dozen beasts of burden carts waiting there.

These beast of burden carts were very large and contained a lot of things, but Zhao Hai still felt that the beast of burden carts seemed to contain some monster beasts, because he felt the breath of life, and of course there were some monsters. The unique fishy smell of animals.

These beasts of burden vehicles seemed to have just arrived, next to the vehicles. There are some guys standing. These guys are not very old. They looked to be in their twenties, and the oldest could not be more than thirty. Zhao Hai noticed that the strength of these guys was very low, the lowest was only about one level of refined gas, and the highest was only three levels. Right and left, belonging to the lowest level of monks.

Zhao Hai knew very well that monks of their level. In the Sword Spirit World, even ordinary people, because the environment here in the Sword Spirit World, almost everyone can practice. People like them are the ones who have the least talent for practice, so they can only Considered an ordinary person.

At this time, those guys also saw Yuanjing and the others, and then the guy walked to a beast-of-carrying cart with a carriage, whispered something, and then opened the door. A man got out of the car.

This is a skinny old man in his fifties, wearing a navy blue robe. Although the appearance was ordinary, the material looked good. Zhao Hai even felt a trace of mana fluctuations from the robe. It seemed that the robe should be a robe.

As soon as Yuanjing saw the old man, he immediately went up to him, clasped his hands to the old man, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Wu, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."

The old man nodded and said: "We have just arrived. Master Yuanjing, for this time of escorting, the price will be based on what we agreed on, right? The conditions will be based on what we agreed on, right? There will be no regrets." Bar?"

Yuan Jing shook her head and said, "Absolutely not. Don't worry, Shopkeeper Wu, the price will be as we said, and we will be responsible for all our food and accommodation."

Shopkeeper Wu nodded and said, "Okay, let's set off." After that, he turned around and got in the car. The convoy slowly walked out of the city amidst the shouts of the guys.

Yuanjing and the others did not walk on both sides of the car, but walked behind the car. They also did not ride in the car, but just walked. As they walked, Yuanjing whispered to Zhao Hai and the others: "This shopkeeper Wu is from Lingshan Trading Company." A shopkeeper from Xunshan City, he is notoriously stingy. Do you know why we got this escort mission? In fact, our price is the same as other people’s prices, but we have one thing, that’s it We have to take care of our own food and accommodation along the way, and because of this, we got this mission.”

Everyone was stunned when they heard what Yuan Jing said. They really didn't expect that it would be like this. Just because of room and board, they could get this task. As the shopkeeper of a big business, he would be so stingy. To this extent, this is really surprising.

Zhao Hai has also heard of Lingshan Trading Company. It is a very large trading firm and is quite famous in the Sword Spirit World. Such a trading firm would actually make a choice just for the sake of food and lodging. This is really disappointing. People can’t think of it.

Yuan Jing looked at the crowd and said, "Don't underestimate the issue of food and accommodation. It will take us about ten days to travel from Fengjian City to Xunshan City. During these ten days, we will spend three days camping in the wild. , and there are still seven days to stay in the hotel. If all the hotel expenses for the twenty of us are paid by Shopkeeper Wu and the others, then he will have to spend five more second-class crystal stones. If we serve food, we will need about ten second-class crystal stones in total, which is equivalent to inviting one more person, now you understand."

Zhao Hai and the others all nodded. Although ten pieces of second-class crystals didn't seem like a lot, don't forget that the people from the Guanchao Gang used to catch rock spirit crabs for Spirit Crab Island, and they only spent one piece a day. The income of equal crystal stones, and one second-class crystal stone, is equivalent to about three first-class crystal stones. In other words, ten second-class crystal stones are almost equivalent to about thirty first-class crystal stones. This is almost It is equivalent to three months of income for casual cultivators in Chao Guan City. After all, the people in Chao Guan City had only this source of income before they joined Chao Guan, and they only had ten days per month. When the tide is high, you can catch rock spirit crabs in exchange for crystal stones.

One mission is equivalent to three months' income for people in Guanchao City. No wonder there are many monks who would rather live a life full of crises in such a big city than go to Guanchao City. Because the income here is indeed much higher than that in Guanchao City.

Yuanjing looked at everyone and said: "Masters, I asked everyone to bring food this time just for this matter. Although you can stay in hotels along the way, you have to pay for it yourself. If you want You have to pay for eating in the store. If you don’t want to stay in the hotel or eat the food in the store, then you can meditate next to the car in the evening and eat the food you brought. Save me a smile. Although we can be regarded as Buddhist disciples, the most fundamental thing is that we are casual cultivators. So if you want to save more crystals and exchange them for exercises or elixirs, I think you should not stay in the hotel and eat your own food. It’s better to have dry food, I wonder what everyone thinks?”

Everyone nodded and didn't say anything. Zhao Hai didn't say anything either. For him, this was a normal thing. When he was in the soul world, as a planter, he would go out a few times. For months, he almost lived on dry food and wild vegetables, with some salt added at most, so what Yuanjing said really didn't mean anything.

When Yuanjing saw everyone nodding, he then continued: "We will encounter many villages along the way. In those villages, there will be some vegetables for sale. We can buy some for use during meals or sell them." You can buy some pickles, and of course you can also sell some meat, it’s up to you.”

Everyone nodded and said nothing. Although they were Buddhist cultivators, it did not mean that they could not eat meat. In fact, real Buddhist cultivators ate meat, because in the very beginning of real Buddhist cultivators, they They are all begging for food, and they don’t eat until after noon. In other words, they all rely on begging for food. They can’t eat after noon. And you, who beg for food, naturally eat whatever you want. , could it be said that if someone gives you a piece of meat and you don’t want it, do you have to ask someone to fry you two vegetables? Is that possible? So it’s not surprising that monks initially ate meat.

In addition, monks like Zhao Hai and others, especially physical cultivation, all rely on the body to fight and practice. In this case, if they do not eat meat, they will not have enough energy. Nutrition, it won't take long for their bodies to collapse, so it is absolutely impossible to say that they don't eat meat.

After telling everyone this, Yuanjing also said: "Okay everyone, this is the general situation. After the pack car has walked out of the ten-mile radius of Fengjian City, we will spread out and walk on both sides of the convoy. , only in this way can we react immediately when the convoy is attacked, but this road is relatively safe, so you don’t need to worry too much." Everyone nodded and announced in a low voice. Buddha's name.

The speed of the carriage was not slow, and soon they were ten miles away from Fengjian City. Yuanjing and the others also walked to both sides of the convoy, protecting the convoy. Zhao Hai walked in the middle of the convoy, holding a Zen staff, He lowered his eyes and walked forward in groups, but his speed was not slow at all.

They also encountered many convoys along the way. These convoys were also pulling things and carrying guards. The situation was similar to theirs. The people in those convoys were a little surprised to see that the guards of their convoys were all monks, but then They thought that they were in Fengjian City in front of them, and they were relieved. Zhao Hai was so Yuanjing that he actually knew many of the guards in the convoy. From time to time, they saw people greeting him, and he was talking to others. Say hello, you can see his connections from here. No wonder he can receive so many tasks. With such support from connections, it is not surprising that he can receive those tasks.

When it was almost noon, they passed by a village, but they did not stop. When they arrived, Yuanjing took the initiative to buy some vegetables and some meat in the village, and then followed the convoy directly forward.

At around 12 noon, they arrived at a relatively large town. The convoy stopped in a small shop outside the town, where they rested. Zhao Hai and the others also took out their own dry food and ate it with water. After a while, he closed his eyes and rested there.

After Shopkeeper Wu and the others had eaten, they went straight on their way. The convoy was very quiet all the time. Zhao Hai and the others also moved forward silently, but at a very slow speed. In the afternoon, they passed two villages. In the evening, they Only then did he see a small town and prepare to rest here. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
