System: I am a second-hand dealer in the world of immortality

Shen Xia didn't want to be too sad when parting with Wei Yan and several aunts who were close to each other in the caravan, so she sneaked away while the caravan left a note while transporting goods.

Shen Xia walked around Dongcheng District and found out where to rest and recruit workers.

There are inns and guild halls in Dongcheng District. The price of an inn is about half a tael of silver to a tael of silver a night. Shen Xia only has enough money to sleep for 6 nights at most (she currently has 3 taels of silver and 200 copper coins). The guild hall is the Tiansheng City East Guild Hall. It mainly provides accommodation for businessmen and a small number of students who come to Tiansheng City. Shen Xia is not qualified to stay at all, and it is not feasible. As for the inns and guild halls in Xicheng District, I think they are pretty much the same as those in Dongcheng District.

The only affordable accommodation left is Tiansheng Temple in the north of Tiansheng City. Tiansheng Temple was funded by the government and is located on Tiansheng Mountain in the northeast of Tiansheng City. Looking down from Tiansheng Temple, you can not only see most of the scenery of Tiansheng City, but also the sea to the east.

Although Tiansheng Academy is sought after by thousands of students, the position of Tiansheng Temple in the hearts of the people of Tiansheng City is unshakable. The Poseidon enshrined in Tiansheng Temple is said to be a native of Tiansheng City and was selected by the Tianguan Sect because of his great talent. , worked diligently in the world of immortality and finally cultivated the Great Dao, but because his heart was attached to Tiansheng City, he returned to Tiansheng City after ascending to immortality, and has been guarding the land and water of Tiansheng City ever since.

As for where to recruit workers, there are several dental shops in Dongcheng District. They can help match suitable jobs, but the intermediary fees required are too high, and Shen Xia does not consider them.

In addition, there is a government-established notice board under the gatehouse at the junction of the residential area and Dongcheng District. It contains various current affairs news and private information, including information on renting houses and recruiting workers. In addition, some businesses will post recruitment information directly at the door of the store. When Shen Xia passed by several restaurants, she saw that they needed to recruit dishwashers, waiters, etc.

Shen Xia only glanced at the recruitment information. It was almost evening now. Shen Xia had to go to Tiansheng Temple immediately, otherwise it would still be very dangerous to walk on the mountain road at night.

As night fell, the street lights on the streets and the signs of various shops gradually lit up. Shen Xia didn't know what Tiansheng City's lights relied on to operate. It stands to reason that she had not seen any town using electricity along the way. , but at this moment, with the sounds of children playing in her ears, the aroma of a variety of snacks pouring into her nose, and the brightly lit streets with people coming and going in front of her, Shen Xia really felt that she had gone back.

This was the second time she thought about her family and friends. Shen Xia wants to know if she still has a chance to go back, and wants to know if her family is doing well. She has forgotten how she traveled through time. The harder she tries to recall the memories before the time travel, the blurry they become. Now in her memory Only the last voice of her parents calling her "Xia Xia" in the darkness was left.

Shen Xia was worried that she would eventually forget her parents' voices, so she had been restraining herself from thinking about what happened before. Maybe I have become an immortal, what magic weapon can I use to go back? Shen Xia thought so, so she was determined to cultivate immortality from the beginning, no matter how difficult the road was.

"Sister, if you don't cry, I'll give you some candies." Shen Xia lowered his head, and a pretty little girl was handing the maltose in her hand to Shen Xia. Shen Xia raised her head and glanced around, and found that there was a young lady not far away. Looking at Shen Xia with a smile.

"Sister," the little girl pulled Shen Xia with her other hand, "Hurry up and hold it, I can't hold it anymore." Shen Xia then took the stick of maltose.

"Thank you." Shen Xia raised her hand to wipe away the tears that she didn't know when, and smiled.

"Hehe, it's okay. Mom said that if you eat candy when you are sad, your worries will fly away!" The little girl smiled at Shen Xia and then jumped back to the lady. Shen Xia watched the lady and the little girl drift away, looked at the maltose in her hand, but still didn't want to eat it, so she put it in her backpack.

After taking a few deep breaths, Shen Xia readjusted her mood, spent 60 coppers to eat a bowl of wontons on the street, and bought some candles and incense with the remaining copper coins (140 coppers), and then walked quickly towards Tiansheng Temple.

When we reached the foot of the mountain, it was completely dark, but there were still people walking up the mountain. The road up the mountain is very smooth, with steps repaired with bluestone. There are stone lanterns every 10 meters on both sides of the road. The light yellow light shines softly on the road. Just at the foot of the mountain, Shen Xia feels that Tiansheng Mountain is different from the others. The quietness and softness of the city.

Shen Xia noticed that other people going up the mountain were holding red paper, red ropes, incense, candlesticks, candles, sesame oil and other items in their hands. While thinking that worship could be held in Tiansheng City at night, she also reflected on what she had prepared. They are all too rough, and the lack of etiquette will make the abbot of the temple unhappy. It's just that it's too late to go down the mountain to buy more now. Shen Xia can only bite the bullet and continue walking up with these few things.

The further up Shen Xia went, the more she felt the atmosphere of Tiansheng Temple. Pavilions for people to rest were built all over the mountain, and the endless stone lanterns continued to the top of the mountain with no end in sight. Even at night, Shen Xia could vaguely see incense smoke floating above Tiansheng Temple.

Then Shen Xia saw the gate tower of Tiansheng Temple. In the dark night, with the lights and incense, Shen Xia only felt that the temples were stacked one above another and the incense was curling around.

Shen Xia straightened her clothes and followed the crowd to worship in Tiansheng Temple. She originally wanted to ask the host if she could stay overnight, but now she felt a little timid. The endless stream of incense shows the extraordinary status of Tiansheng Temple. The people staying there must be either rich or noble. I am dressed in coarse linen clothes, so I am afraid that I cannot reach the threshold of Tiansheng Temple.

Shen Xia thought, at worst, she would go to a pavilion on the mountain to rest for the night, and then go there tomorrow to see if there was any suitable accommodation. But now that we’re here, let’s finish worshiping the God of the Sea.

Shen Xia followed the flow of people into the main hall. In the middle of the main hall stood a huge golden statue of Poseidon. The statue was about 40 feet high. Poseidon wore a twelve-pointed crown, a twelve-chapter suit, and held a whisk in his hand. He was looking at the believers below with compassion.

Facing the huge statue of Poseidon, Shen Xia did not feel the oppression she imagined, but a soft feeling, as if Poseidon's compassionate eyes fell softly on Shen Xia. Shen Xia kowtowed to the God of Poseidon earnestly and then stood up. If she wanted to visit other places in Tiansheng Temple, she went down to the mountain area.

The main hall is located on the central axis of the entire Tiansheng Temple. Behind the main hall is the Prayer Temple. Shen Xia did not go there, but went to the Forest of Steles next to it.

There were very few people who came to the Forest of Steles at night. Most of them were concentrated in the main hall and the prayer hall. Shen Xia only came here to find some peace and quiet. There is also a pavilion in the center of the Forest of Steles. Shen Xia wanted to rest there. When she got closer, she found that there was already someone in the pavilion. Shen Xia turned around and walked elsewhere for fear of disturbing others' peace.

"Believers, please stay," a nice female voice sounded behind Shen Xia, "Is it possible that I have disturbed the believers' elegance, and I will apologize to the believers."

Shen Xia turned around and found that the woman in the pavilion was actually a young woman in fluttering white clothes. She bent her slender waist and took a slight step, showing her bright wrists in the gauze. Her eyes are full of clear spring water, and her head is slanted with a jade dragon and phoenix hairpin. The fragrant and tender jade is more delicate than flowers, and the root mouth of the finger looks like a peeled onion with vermilion in it.

There is no beauty in the world, and beauty is what pleases the eye. After Shen Xia saw the woman's appearance clearly, this was the only thing left in his mind. The true appearance of an immortal could only be like this. Shen Xia was stunned. The woman smiled broadly and said, "This believer, if you don't mind it, would you please move to the pavilion and enjoy the moon together?"

Shen Xia couldn't say no, so she moved to the pavilion. After entering, Shen Xia smelled the smell of incense lingering around the pavilion. Could it be that incense had been burned here before? But there are no traces around?

The two of them sat on one side of the pavilion, no one said anything, and they seemed to be really admiring the moon.

Shen Xia is very tolerant of beauties, especially such stunning beauties. In order to prevent the scene from getting colder, Shen Xia was the first to speak: "This... girl, you also came to Tiansheng Temple to worship. ? Don’t know what to call me? My name is Shen Xia."

The woman smiled slightly: "The little girl's full name is Lin Yueying. Is this your first time coming to Tiansheng City? What impression do you have of Tiansheng Temple?"

Well, as expected, the fairy's name was also fairy-like. Shen Xia didn't know how Lin Yueying could tell that it was her first time in Tiansheng City. Maybe her accent was a little different from the locals?

Shen Xia did not dwell on these details, and followed Lin Yueying and said, "Yes, how did you tell? Tiansheng City is so big, Tiansheng Temple is so big, and you can worship here at night. Before I have never encountered this situation.”

Lin Yueying continued: "After all, Tiansheng City is close to the world of cultivating immortals, so it will inevitably be more prosperous than other places in Chu State. As for why we can worship at night, it is because time is an illusion and time is also emptiness. As long as you want to offer incense "If you want to worship the Buddha, now is the best time, because now is the time when you have both faith and willingness, but just do it."

Lin Yueying said such a philosophical sentence, Shen Xia couldn't catch the words, so she could only change the subject: "Well, then Poseidon will bless every one of his believers. By the way, sister Yueying, you are As a native of Tiansheng City, I feel like you are very familiar with this place."

Lin Yueying was a little surprised, and Shen Xia couldn't understand her expression. Didn't she say anything wrong?

Lin Yueying straightened her expression and continued: "Yes, Poseidon will bless every believer." Shen Xia felt that Lin Yueying's desire to chat was not high, and guessed that she just really wanted to admire the moon, so she stopped talking. speech.

After a while, Lin Yueying spoke again: "Miss Shen Xia, when you first came to Tiansheng City, did you come with your family? Have you found a place to live?"

Shen Xia thought that Lin Yueying was a local and might know which places in Tiansheng City were suitable for lodging, so she answered truthfully: "No, I came alone. Prices in Tiansheng City are high and I have little savings." , I haven't found a suitable place yet." Lin Yueying nodded and said nothing more.

Shen Xia only felt that Lin Yueying was only half-talking, and felt as if she was scratching her head. She also wanted to ask Lin Yueying if she knew about any accommodation. Before he could ask, he heard footsteps behind him.

"Xiangu!" Shen Xia heard someone shouting from behind.
