Chapter 137: Mysterious
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Wang Zijia’s mind as he surreptitiously surveyed his surroundings.
He found himself in a typical market square, presumably a street stall area. People were setting up various street stalls and many stall owners were shouting to attract passing pedestrians.
It was similar to the street stall areas Wang Zijia had seen in the sect, except that the wares here were of lower quality, similar to those in the legend of the Loose Cultivator’s Market.
"Fellow Daoist, would you like to purchase some elixirs?" A greeting was heard by his ear.
Wang Zijia quickly turned around to find the call came from the stall owner in front of him who noticed Wang Zijia standing and observing the surroundings.
"I’ll look around first," Wang Zijia replied, starting to move forward with a hint of caution.
"Hey, hey, don’t be in such a rush. My stuff is much cheaper than those in stores..." The stall owner’s call echoed from behind, but Wang Zijia did not pause at all.
As he slowly walked past each street stall, listened to the surrounding bustle, felt the faint mixed smells in the air, and observed the diverse crowd around him, Wang Zijia’s brow furrowed deeper.
Leaving the street stall area, he entered a main commercial street where numerous shops stood side by side, ready to welcome customers.
Wang Zijia constantly looked around. After walking through several streets and visiting a few shops, he was warmly welcomed.
In the end, he walked out without buying anything.
