However, red sand spiders always appear in groups. Once surrounded, they will most likely die and are difficult to catch.
Therefore, the selling price is quite high, and the purchase price is naturally higher than other creatures.
"You two look young, so I advise you not to go to the Jiaoge Desert."
The shopkeeper advised them, probably because he couldn't bear to see them die at such a young age.
He had seen too many young monks who, relying on their ignorance, rushed into the Jiaoge Desert alone, and never returned.
Or they would come back with missing limbs, and in the end, the spiritual stones they earned from selling their harvest would not be as much as the amount they spent on recovering from their injuries.
Feeling the shopkeeper's kindness, Gao Han's lips curved slightly, "Thank you for the reminder, shopkeeper. Then can you help me see how many spirit stones these red sand spiders can be exchanged for?"
As Gao Han spoke, he dumped a dozen red sand spiders onto the ground.
Although none of them are intact, spider meat does not spoil.
The shopkeeper was stunned when he saw the dozen or so red sand spiders on the ground.
He thought the two young men were planning to go, but he didn't expect that they had already come back after the adventure. He was just being too sentimental.
However, the shopkeeper felt much more relieved when he saw that the two did not show any sarcastic expressions.
"One red sand spider can be exchanged for ten low-grade spirit stones. Eighteen of them will be one hundred and eighty. What do you think?"
"Sure." Gao Han had actually inquired about it a long time ago, and this store's purchase value was the most fair.
The shopkeeper also liked people who were so decisive and efficient. He asked the shop assistant to put away the eighteen red sand spiders, took out a bag of spirit stones and handed it to Gao Han, with the smile on his face deepening.
"Here are your spirit stones. Welcome to come again next time."
The two walked out of the store, and Zhongli Tingzhou said, "It's so easy. If I had known earlier, I should have collected all the red sand spiders."
"It's good to have these." Gao Han was just in a good mood at the time and never thought that the Red Sand Spider could be exchanged for spirit stones.
But he also knew why. The spiritual energy contained in the meat of the red sand spider should not be too low, otherwise Zhongli Tingzhou would not have recovered some of his spiritual power after eating more than twenty of them.
Gao Han took out a spiritual stone from his storage bag and said, "Take a look."
Zhongli Tingzhou took a look and said, "The purity is not high, about the same as a spirit bead."
"It turns out that the spiritual beads we used were only low-grade spiritual stones. The spiritual stones that the mermaid gave us that day were most likely medium-grade or even higher-grade spiritual stones."
"These spirit stones should be enough for the toll." Zhongli Tingzhou said.
"It's enough, but not enough for us to do anything else."
For example, Gao Han bought a relatively detailed map of Lingtian Continent and spent one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
His pocket was suddenly emptied by more than half, and Zhongli Tingzhou never mentioned it again after that.
After Gao Han looked at the map, he was almost speechless, "This Lingtian Continent is actually infinitely larger than the Earth."
Although the earth is not big, he doesn't think it is particularly small. Compared with the Lingtian Continent, the earth is just a corner.
"Infinity?" Zhongli Tingzhou didn't see it clearly.
Gao Han nodded and pointed to the edge of the map. "How big is the edge? Where is the boundary of Lingtian Continent? No one can detect it. Isn't it infinite?"
"Where are we now?"
Gao Han pointed at a small red dot and said, "It's probably here."
The red dot is a place name, and Chiyun Town and Jiaoge Desert are included in it. You can imagine how small the two are, so small that they cannot even be written on a large map.
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately threw the map away and said, "As saviors, how can we hide in this small place? Let's go and explore the world."
Gao Han raised his foot to kick him, but Zhongli Tingzhou immediately picked up the map.
Only then did Gao Han retract his foot.
"You have to save up some money before you can make a living. We have nothing. Do we have to beg for food all the way?"
Zhongli Tingzhou's expression changed, "Who said we have to beg all the way there? We can also rob all the way there."
Gao Han rolled his eyes. They knew almost nothing about Lingtian Continent. They were risking their lives to snatch their way there.
"To the Horned Desert."
Gao Han said this in a crisp and clear manner, then turned and left.
"Wait for me." Zhongli Tingzhou hurriedly chased after him.
With an almost unlimited supply of Yayoi Rings, the two stayed in the Jiaoge Desert for more than half a month. They were so scared of killing the red sand spiders that they all shrank back into space and could not be lured out anymore before they left.
After returning to Chiyun Town, the two visited the shopkeeper's shop again.
This time the shopkeeper didn't dare to treat them as ignorant youngsters. When he saw them coming, he immediately put on a smile.
"Are you two here to sell Red Sand Spiders again?"
"The shopkeeper is really smart." Gao Han said with a smile, pouring a hundred or so red sand spiders onto the ground.
He did not take out all the red sand spiders. He believed that wealth should not be shown to others. He had to be more careful in this strange continent.
The shopkeeper was not surprised and immediately asked his clerk to count and quickly settle the bill.
The monks watching nearby couldn't help but ask Gao Han, "Little brother, where did you find the red sand spiders?"
"I didn't look for it, I just happened to meet you." Gao Han glanced at the other person.
The monk immediately looked envious, "You are very lucky. I heard from others that they wandered around the Jiaoge Desert for several days but didn't encounter a single red sand spider. I don't know what happened recently, but the red sand spiders that usually appear in groups didn't appear this time. I was worried to death, but in the end, I didn't even have the chance to lure out one or two."
"So that's how it is. We are really lucky then." Gao Han's expression was sincere, without any sign of anything unusual.
I wonder what the monk would think if he knew that the Red Sand Spider was afraid to show up again because it was scared by the two young men in front of it.
Walking out of the store, Zhongli Tingzhou came closer and said, "Wife, you always say that I am an actor, but you are not bad either. An actor matches an actor. We are really a perfect match."
Gao Han was too lazy to pay attention to him. He was just doing this for the plot's sake, which was different from his outbursts anytime and anywhere.
After selling a hundred red sand spiders, the two went to another store and sold dozens more.
I thought I was careful enough, but I didn't expect to be targeted after all.
"Boy, these tricks of yours are leftovers from others. I have been eyeing you for a long time. If you know what's good for you, just hand over the spirit stones obediently."
As soon as he left the store, Gao Han felt something was wrong, as if someone was following them.
The two of them deliberately walked into an alley, and unexpectedly, several people really came out.
"Do you want to go or should I?" Gao Han didn't waste any words and asked Zhongli Tingzhou directly.
"You go ahead. I'm not interested in minions." Zhongli Tingzhou leaned lazily against the wall.
Hearing that they were called minions by the other party, the uncles immediately became angry.
"If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished. Brothers, let's go!" The guy in front shouted and rushed over.
Gao Han was about to take out his spiritual sword when he found that it had been destroyed in the space crack. He still hadn't adapted to it, so he slapped the guy who rushed over first against the wall.
The figure flashed like a ghost, and before several people could react, they were pressed against the wall and pressed against the wall, with wailing sounds everywhere.
"If you don't want to get out of here, don't leave." Gao Han shouted coldly.
Several people quickly got up and walked away, supporting each other, at a speed not much slower than when they came.
"Why bother with all that effort? Just kill him." Zhongli Tingzhou said with a sneer.
Gao Han glanced at him and said, "We are new here, so if we can avoid causing trouble, let's do it."
According to his previous character, he would naturally not leave any survivors, but this is not Earth or the future world he is familiar with.
The more you get to know Lingtian Continent, the more you will find it to be unfathomable. It is filled with mysterious power everywhere. They are still too weak now, and there is no powerful force behind them.
Zhongli Tingzhou shrugged, "Where are we going now?"
"I want to get some materials to refine a handy spiritual weapon first. You also need to find materials to repair your spiritual weapon." Gao Han told his plan.
Although Zhongli Tingzhou's superior spiritual weapon was not destroyed in the space crack, its condition was very serious and it seemed like it would fall apart at any time.
The two of them don't have any suitable weapons now, and they have no trump card if they really encounter any trouble.
They did get some materials in the Jiaoge Desert, but their quality was low and they couldn't make any good weapons.
The level here in the Jiaoge Desert is still too low. If they want to get better materials, they have to leave here. This is another reason why they have been frantically hunting red sand spiders during this period.
Before leaving, Gao Han sold all the remaining red sand spiders, and finally had more than two thousand low-grade spirit stones in his pocket. Then he left Chiyun Town and walked towards the big city marked on the map.
…
Beiyangzhou is the place marked with a red dot.
On Earth it is a continent, but on Lingtian Continent, it is just a small place.
But it is still prosperous, especially Pingcheng, which is located at the junction.
Countless people pass by every day, whether they are merchants, ordinary people, or monks. There are countless people entering and leaving the city gate every day.
Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou traveled for seven days and finally arrived outside Pingcheng.
A bustling atmosphere suddenly rose up, which was many times more lively than Chiyun Town.
After looking outside the city for a while, they found that the number of ordinary people and monks was almost one to one, which is almost never seen on Earth.
"Let's go in too." Zhongli Tingzhou said excitedly.
Gao Han was dragged by him to the city gate to queue up. Pingcheng required to pay a toll, and soon a long queue formed.
At this time, there was a noise.
A group of people riding tall horses, dressed in luxurious clothes, with their sleeves fluttering, passed by them in a cloud of dust.
When the dust was about to hit Gao Han's face, Zhongli Tingzhou shook it away with his sleeve.
Ever since he changed into clothes from Lingtian Continent, he has particularly liked swinging his sleeves.
"No manners." Zhongli Tingzhou's eyes were cold.
I don’t know if it was because he didn’t mention any names or those people didn’t hear it, but these people didn’t have to pay the toll. They paused for a moment and quickly entered the city, unlike them who were still queuing.
Gao Han observed for a while and found that not all cultivators could pass through. It was obvious that those people had special identities.
