Du Feng knew very well that the middle-aged man would not be able to break his array. And if someone were to touch his array, he would know immediately.
"Remember, no one is allowed to move!"
When he reached the entrance of the courtyard, he did not forget to look back at the two of them and emphasized again. His meaning was very clear, not only the middle-aged man was not allowed to enter, the young woman was also not allowed to enter. Towards adults, Du Feng did not trust them, even the mother of the little girl was no exception.
"Thank you, thank you benefactor!"
The young woman knelt down again with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly. However, Du Feng did not look back. Instead, he left expressionlessly.
Du Feng was not as childish as before. One moment someone kowtowed to you, the next moment a knife might stab you. So he did not sympathize or pity the other party and went to do his own things. After he left, the middle-aged man beat the young woman up again.
He tried to get close to Du Feng's house, but he was bounced back by the array and fell to the ground in a very sorry state. After trying a few times, he knew that his strength was not enough to break the array, so he could only walk away. Before he left, he was still nagging: "Alright, you really know how to play, I'll remember."
Du Feng walked out of the alley and first found a small bookstore. East Immortal City was quite big, so he had to buy a map. If he were to walk around blindly like this, he would not know where to find who to buy tickets for the whole day.
In the end, just as he bought a map, he heard the bookstore owner say: "You're new, right? Do you want to buy a ticket?"
What, what kind of situation was this, he could even see through this. Du Feng was considered to be calm and collected, and his clothes were not bad, so he should not be able to tell that he was a newcomer.
"To tell you the truth, if you want to buy a ticket, don't walk around here blindly. Wait for next month's auction, this month's tickets have already been sold out."
The bookstore owner was really direct, telling Du Feng to stop walking around blindly. Not only his small bookstore did not have tickets, even if he went to a bigger shop, it would be useless. No shop dared to secretly sell tickets to the Southern Heaven Realm. If he was caught, the shop would be shut down.
If he wanted to buy a ticket to the Southern Heaven Realm, he could only participate in the underground auction. Those were all gray transactions. It could be said that as long as you had money, you could buy anything. Of course, the price of the ticket was determined by the bidding on the day. The more people there were, the higher the price would be. If he were to encounter a madman who kept raising the price, he would be out of luck.
"I see. Thank you, thank you. May I know about the auction …"
Since the conversation had come to this, Du Feng didn't have to pretend anymore. He simply asked the owner of the bookstore how to participate in the auction next month. Such auctions were usually held in strange places that very few people knew about. They were either hidden in the ruins or buried deep underground. If no one pointed the way, it would be impossible to find it.
"Hehe, you've asked the right person."
"I don't have a ticket, but I have a place to participate in the auction."
Well, the owner of the bookstore introduced for a long time just to promote the place in his hands. In fact, he didn't see that Du Feng was a newcomer from another place, but every time he met someone who wanted to buy a map, he would make a big fuss. If he guessed correctly, then he would enthusiastically introduce the business to the person.
So the problem wasn't with Du Feng, but the owner of the bookstore was too good at making money.
"Oh, you're selling tickets to the auction. Alright, since it's a ticket, give me one. "
Du Feng knew the rules. Usually, this kind of auction was secretly organized by a merchant union. One needed to spend a certain amount of money in their merchant union's shop and become a VIP member before they could be invited to participate in the auction.
He had just arrived at East Immortal City and didn't know which shop to go to to spend money. He also didn't know how much he should spend to become a VIP member. It was better to directly buy a place to enter. Anyway, this time it was just to bid for the ticket. It didn't matter even if it was in the hall.
The auction only recognized tickets and not people. He could change his appearance and then participate in the auction without being afraid of being recognized.
After all, it was just a qualification to participate in the auction and didn't guarantee that he would be able to buy the ticket. So the bookstore owner's asking price wasn't too high, and Du Feng easily bought it. This was also good, he didn't need to wander around East Immortal City.
Originally, he wanted to go back to his room, but thinking that the middle-aged man and the young woman might not be done yet, he might as well eat something outside.
East Immortal City was a big city, but Du Feng hadn't reached the developed district yet. The place he was at now was not far from the slums. Although it was a business district, it was filled with small shops and restaurants. Today's weather was cold, and he wanted to eat a bowl of dumplings. But when he raised his head, he saw a small shop with piping hot steam.
Du Feng walked in and took a look. There was a banner in front of the door with the words "East Immortal City Lamb Soup" written in black.
Interesting, he never thought that in a place like East Immortal City, there would be a popular lamb soup shop. The shop wasn't big, and there were simple tables and chairs inside. At this time, there were quite a number of people in the shop.
"Sir, please come in!"
Du Feng stayed at the door for a while, and immediately a shop assistant came up to greet him warmly. The shop assistant was wearing a grayish-blue coarse clothing, and even had a white towel draped over his shoulder. His face was full of smiles, and his attitude was very good.
For a moment, Du Feng thought that he had returned to the lower realm. Not only did he return to the lower realm, he returned to the small Rong Tian Nation. In the past, there was a street like this in the Rong Tian Nation, and it was filled with small merchants and peddlers. Not only were there martial artists eating there, but there were also mortals who didn't have any Cultivation experience eating and trading there.
"Oh, okay!"
Du Feng was stunned for a moment, and then he walked into the lamb soup shop. He found a corner by the window, and the table was smaller, so he casually sat down.
"Sir, do you want a big bowl or a small bowl? Lamb soup or haggis soup? Our soup here can be refilled for free."
Interesting, the selling method and the free refills were exactly the same as the small markets in the lower realm. When Du Feng heard this, he felt a sense of familiarity, and happily ordered two bowls. One bowl of lamb soup and one bowl of haggis soup, and both bowls were big.
"Alright, please wait for a moment."
Actually, there weren't many people who ordered like this. Because they could refill soup for free, most people would only order a bowl of lamb soup or haggis soup. Eating the meat slowly, and after finishing a bowl, he would refill the soup. This way, he would spend less money, and it was more worth it.
