If the trading market in White Fox City was an honest shop, then the market outside the city was a huge street market. There were all kinds of people living here, people from all walks of life.
One shouldn't think that the world of Cultivators was magical. In fact, things that happen to ordinary people can also happen to Cultivators. In the end, Cultivators were still people. Mistakes made by people can also be made by Cultivators. Mistakes made by Cultivators can also be made by Cultivators.
Zhao Hai aimlessly walked around the market. The place was really big, there were countless ice houses here. Some of the ice houses looked very beautiful, they could be used as a shop. Some of the ice houses were very simple, they were the simplest of round ice houses. And in front of these ice houses, there were stalls.
Zhao Hai slowly walked around the market. There were a lot of people in the market, and there were also a lot of things in the market. The variety of things here was really beyond Zhao Hai's expectations. Zhao Hai had read some books, so he had some understanding of the local customs and practices of the Five Spirit Realms. He saw things that were commonly used in other realms, but these things weren't necessarily commonly used in the Ice Ocean Continent.
Zhao was very curious as he walked forward, looking at the stalls on both sides of the road. He didn't go into the shops, because what they sold was written on the signs. He simply didn't go in. On the contrary, these stalls sometimes had good things, and there were also a lot of very novel things.
While Zhao Hai was walking forward, a stall suddenly attracted Zhao Hai's attention. The reason why this stall attracted Zhao Hai's attention wasn't because there were a lot of people standing in front of it, but because of the things that were displayed there.
The stall had a lot of demon beast cubs. These demon beasts were common demon beasts in the Ice Ocean Continent. These cubs were very small and very cute. They could be raised as pets.
In fact, raising pets was very normal in the Five Spirit Realms. There were a lot of Warlocks who raised pets. Some pets could even be used as battle pets. Because the spiritual qi in the Five Spirit Realms was very rich, the strength of the demon beasts here was also very good. Even if they were weak, as long as you use them well, they can still help you. Therefore, in the Five Spirit Realms, many Warlocks would raise pets to help them.
It was precisely because of this that there were many pet merchants in the Five Spiritual Realms. They would either raise their own pets or go out to catch them. There would always be a lot of pet cubs, and some of these pet cubs were very popular.
In fact, in the Arctic Continent, there were a lot of pet cubs that were very popular. The Water Spirit Deer was one of them. The Water Spirit Deer was different from the Pack Deer used to pull carriages. The Pack Deer used to pull carriages were generally very tall and had a very good carrying capacity. It was one of the main means of transportation in the Arctic Continent. Although there were transmission formations in the Arctic Continent, a lot of small merchants still liked to use the Pack Deer.
Although the Spirit Deer and the Pack Deer were both called deer, they were completely different. The Spirit Deer was relatively weaker. Sometimes, it would be strenuous for them to carry people. However, the Spirit Deer had several abilities that people liked. The first was loyalty. If you could raise a Spirit Deer, then the Spirit Deer would only be loyal to you. Even if you died, it wouldn't look for another master. Although it wouldn't accompany you to death, it would stay in the place where you died and guard you until it died of old age.
The second was alertness. Deer were actually very timid animals. They were very afraid of strangers. Moreover, their sense of smell and hearing were very sensitive. They could smell and hear strangers from far away. If a Warlock had a Spirit Deer by his side, then it was equivalent to having a low-power radar. If you want to sneak attack such a person, then it wouldn't be easy.
The third was bravery. Although Spirit Deer were timid, when they found an enemy, they would immediately run away. However, if the Spirit Deer had a master and its master was being attacked, then the Spirit Deer would absolutely not run away. It would immediately help its master attack the enemy until one side fell.
The fourth was affinity to the water element. Warlocks majored in spiritual force, but their affinity to the elements was also very important. If one's affinity to the elements was strong, then when casting spells, not only would it take less time, it would also use less spiritual force. This would ensure that one could fight for a long time. The Spirit Deer's affinity to the water element was very strong. Although the Spirit Deer couldn't pass this ability to its master, as long as it stayed by its master's side, it would be easier for the master to sense the water element.
It was precisely because of these reasons that the Water Spirit Deer became the most popular pet in the Arctic Continent. Although some other pets weren't necessarily as comprehensive as the Water Spirit Deer, they might surpass the Water Spirit Deer in other aspects. Therefore, it was very important for a Warlock to be able to choose a pet that was very suitable for them.
Now that Zhao Hai saw the stall, there were several Spirit Deer. These Water Spirit Deer had a special characteristic, it was that their skin was blue, and there were small white flowers on it. They looked very beautiful.
Normally, when Warlocks saw the Water Spirit Deer, they would immediately rush to buy it. However, these Warlocks were all standing there looking at the Water Spirit Deer. Nobody wanted to buy it, this was a bit strange.
However, after thinking about it, Zhao Hai immediately understood. This wasn't strange, these people were afraid that he would be exposed. In fact, in the Arctic Continent, there was another type of deer called the Earth Spirit Deer. The Earth Spirit Deer and the Water Spirit Deer looked almost the same, but the color of their skin was different. The Water Spirit Deer was blue while the Earth Spirit Deer was yellow. It must be said that the Earth Spirit Deer wasn't bad, they could use earth element spells. Moreover, they also lived in the forests of the Arctic Continent. Their running speed was very fast, their defensive power was also very strong, and they also had earth element attack spells. It could be said that they were a good pet.
However, the strange thing was that the Earth Spirit Deer had a shortcoming. The reason why the Earth Spirit Deer weren't welcomed in the Arctic Continent was because they had a very big shortcoming, and that shortcoming was that they were afraid of water.
The Earth Spirit Deer were afraid of water, and once they leave the ground, their fighting strength would be almost zero. They would even get sick. Since the Arctic Continent was full of water, the Earth Spirit Deer naturally weren't welcomed here.
Some people thought about bringing the Earth Spirit Deer to the Thick Earth Continent, but they had to give up on this idea. At this time, there was no direct transmission formation between the Arctic Continent and the Thick Earth Continent. Generally, one would have to take a ship to get there. In the process, the Earth Spirit Deer would die before reaching their destination. Because of this, even the people of the Thick Earth Continent wouldn't buy the Earth Spirit Deer.
Because of this, there was no market for the Earth Spirit Deer in the Arctic Continent. Nobody would buy the Earth Spirit Deer unless they killed it and ate it.
However, it was precisely because the Earth Spirit Deer and the Water Spirit Deer were very similar that some people in the Arctic Continent would use a dye to dye the Earth Spirit Deer's skin blue, and then dye it with small white flowers. This way, it would look like the Water Spirit Deer. If you buy it, then you would be miserable. It wouldn't take long for the Earth Spirit Deer to die. In the end, you wouldn't be able to get anything.
In the stall, there were a lot of blue Water Spirit Deer calves. However, these calves looked very listless, as if they were sick. This made people feel uncomfortable.
Because of this, a lot of people looked at the calves of the Water Spirit Deer but didn't buy them. They were afraid of being cheated. If these calves were the calves of the Water Spirit Deer, then they would be fine. Even if they were sick, they would still be able to accept it. What they were afraid of was that the calves of the Water Spirit Deer were fake.
However, Zhao Hai could see that the calves of the Water Spirit Deer weren't fake. These calves were born prematurely, so they looked sick, not because they were fake.
Zhao Hai thought for a moment and then walked over. At this time, he didn't have any Water Spirit Deer in the Space. Since he encountered them today, he might as well bring them to the Space. This could be considered as adding another animal to the Space.
In addition to this reason, Zhao Hai also discovered that the person who was selling the calves seemed to be raising their own Water Spirit Deer. However, the calves of the Water Spirit Deer seemed to have some problems. Therefore, the person didn't promote them. He was afraid of attracting the attention of a knowledgeable person. That would be troublesome.
However, Zhao Hai felt very strange. He didn't know what the person was afraid of. The calves of the Water Spirit Deer weren't dyed. In other words, they were real Water Spirit Deer calves. What was there to be afraid of?
In fact, Zhao Hai didn't know that the growth process of the Water Spirit Deer required a lot of attention. If these premature calves were born in the wild, then they wouldn't be able to survive. This was because their bodies were naturally weak. They couldn't withstand the temperature of the Arctic Continent. It wouldn't take long for them to freeze to death.
However, if they were artificially raised, then these calves would be able to survive. Although they looked like they were sick, they could still survive. However, because of their innate weakness, these calves couldn't be compared to real Water Spirit Deer. It would be very difficult for them to live to adulthood. Even if they were carefully taken care of, their running speed would be very slow. Moreover, their affinity with water elements would be very low. As a result, they wouldn't be of much help to a Warlock. Because of these reasons, although these calves were real, they could also be considered as fake. At the very least, they could be considered as inferior.
This was also the reason why the person didn't dare to peddle loudly. Although the Water Spirit Deer weren't very common, there were still a lot of knowledgeable people. If he were to peddle loudly, then the knowledgeable people would know what was wrong with these calves. That person certainly wouldn't buy them. At that time, his life would be completely ruined. Therefore, the person just put the calves of the Water Spirit Deer in front of him. He didn't peddle, he just put a confident look on his face.
