"Have you heard? The price of corn has risen again this year! It directly doubled!"
"Twice? What's going on?"
"I heard that Longxi is suffering from a drought!"
A traveler dressed in linen clothes sighed as he replied.
"Longxi's drought? Really?" Another person was surprised.
" Who knows if it's true or not, but it's definitely true that the price of corn has gone up. Fortunately, it's already spring. If this price was in winter, a large number of people would starve to death again."
"Sigh, a few years ago, General Meng Tian had just driven away the Xiongnu. It has only been a few good days, so why has the grain price increased again?”
"Isn't that so? These days are getting more and more difficult by the day."
The sun was scorching.
The 36 Prefectures of Great Qin.
Neishi County.
In a small tea shop near the main road outside Tongluo City, two travelers were fanning themselves while drinking tea and discussing worriedly.
Although it was still spring, the weather was getting hotter.
Although the small tea shop only had a few simple benches and wooden tables, there was still an endless stream of customers.
They were chatting here. The small tea shop was bustling with noise.
In the corner of the tea shop, a figure in a moon-white robe was quietly drinking tea.
Although his clothes were simple and he had nothing on him except for a bag, he seemed to have an invisible temperament.
It was as if just sitting there made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze. It was illusory and refreshing, attracting the attention of many people.
This was especially true for many women who were following small merchant groups or passing by to rest. They would subconsciously take a few more glances and then hurriedly turn away. They would secretly glance at them, their cheeks slightly red.
Feeling the gazes around him, Zhao Xuan's expression was calm as he continued to silently sense the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
In fact, Zhao Xuan had planned to go straight to Xianyang after leaving Sushan County.
Firstly, it was because the person in the black cloak had many karma meridians that he had yet to repay.
Secondly, it was because of the Earth Stalactite Marrow that was about to be born.
However, Zhao Xuan was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he walked while feeling the boundless mortal world.
Along the way, Zhao Xuan also encountered many things.
For example, when he had just left Sushan County, Zhao Xuan had encountered a group of mountain bandits.
"Robbery!"
They seemed to be ex-refugees. They were thin and weak, and their clothes did not cover their bodies. They took axes from somewhere and shouted that they wanted money and not people. They came up fiercely, but their hands were trembling.
Pretending to be brave, they searched Zhao Xuan's entire body, but they couldn't find a single coin.
These people opened their mouths wide and patted Zhao Xuan's shoulder sympathetically. They gave him half a piece of fruit and said that it was not easy for brothers.
Not long after he reached the main road, he also met a group of people who looked quite wealthy.
A gorgeous woman with heavy makeup stuck her head out and asked him about his destination enthusiastically, inviting him to go to Xianyang with her.
Even though Zhao Xuan rejected it in the end, he was still rewarded with half a string of copper coins.
When he was resting in the pavilion along the way, he had met a traveler who was resting with him. After chatting with him loudly and enthusiastically, he tried to steal his bag.
The result was naturally that he was slapped unconscious on the ground.
Apart from that, Zhao Xuan had seen too many people's lives and appearances on the short journey from Shangjun to Neishi County.
A hundred-tempered soldier in heavy armor rode past with a serious expression. There were also swordsmen who carried their swords and left while reciting poems.
There was a luxurious merchant named Guan Lu riding a carriage. He was dressed in fresh clothes and rode on a horse. He did not mind eating fine food. There were also beggars who were dressed in rags, begging for a meal, looking emaciated.
He saw the elders in the village send their children to join the Great Qin Army, and their black eyes were filled with longing.
He also saw the old man under the tree with his staff, white hair and black hair.
Along the way, Zhao Xuan walked very slowly. It was hard to imagine that he could feel so many different things in just a short distance of ten days.
The boundless secular world rolled over, but everything was still vivid in his mind, making Zhao Xuan's pure heart of seeking Dao even more crystal clear.
The realm that had been trapped in the fifth section of the World of Man for a long time gradually showed signs of loosening.
"It seems that if we walk towards Xianyang like this, we can probably reach the sixth section, right?”Zhao Xuan thought with a smile.
However, the plan could not keep up with the changes, and the matter of going to Xianyang was temporarily put on hold.
Because when Zhao Xuan walked into the territory of the Internal History County, he suddenly felt a strong Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi!
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi disappeared in an instant, but Zhao Xuan's sharp senses sensed it!
Although he did not know why, his spiritual perception told him that this aura was definitely the stalactite marrow he was looking for!
As if a stroke of luck had struck his heart, Zhao Xuan immediately formed a spell and followed along!
After going around for a long time, Zhao Xuan finally arrived near Tongling County!
The surrounding spiritual energy was increasing…
In the small tea shop, Zhao Xuan gently swallowed the slightly bitter tea.
Moreover, from what the surrounding travelers said, the worst thing in Tongling County was always a slight earthquake.
The Earth Stalactite Marrow was probably here…
.......
