Maybe I shouldn't die.

The most prominent inn in Yishui City, Tong'an Inn.

When the Fang family entered, the waiter looked at the ragged people with scrutiny. Although he was a little unhappy, he still stepped forward and asked respectfully:

"Dear guests, would you like to stay or eat something?"

"Are there any guest rooms?"

Mr. Fang also felt that the clothes worn by his group were inappropriate and wanted to wash and change their clothes first.

"We have guest rooms. A superior room costs 10 spirit beads a day, a medium room costs 5 spirit beads a day, and a inferior room costs 1 spirit bead a day. Which one do you want?"

"Spiritual Pearl?"

The Fang family members looked at each other in bewilderment; they only had gold and silver.

"Can gold and silver be used as payment?"

Mr. Fang asked with a little embarrassment.

"Gold and silver? Gold and silver are not circulated in Yishui City. Judging from your appearance, you must have just arrived in Yishui City!"

There are quite a few people like them recently, and there are always some people in tattered clothes coming to their inn.

"It is true that I just arrived in Yishui City."

The Fang family was shocked that an ordinary waiter in Yishui City had such knowledge.

"If you have the Ascension Order, I will show you a clear way. Turn left when you go out and go straight ahead. There is a governor's office. Go there directly."

The Fang family thanked the waiter gratefully and went in the direction he pointed.

Fang Yue couldn't help but complain in her heart. This Ascension Order seemed to be very common in Yishui City. Even the waiters were familiar with it. She wondered how many people holding the Ascension Order had flocked into this city recently?

Fang Yue walked and observed the shops and stalls on both sides of the street.

After paying attention to it, I found that it is very different from ordinary markets. There are many herbal medicine shops and weapons shops. Even the stalls are filled with precious medicinal materials that ordinary people cannot even hide.

"Come and have a look, come and have a look, a hundred-year-old wild Ganoderma lucidum for only five spirit beads."

"I just picked this Dendrobium officinale from the cliff. One ounce only costs one Spiritual Pearl."

Fang Li thought for a moment and walked to a stall.

"Stall owner, I think this Ganoderma lucidum is of good quality. Can it be exchanged for gold or silver?"

The stall raised his eyebrows.

"No, I only want the spirit beads. Go ask at other stalls. Maybe they will accept silver."

"Come here, young master, I can use the silver." A stall owner nearby called out, and he opened a box, which also contained a Ganoderma lucidum.

“How to sell”

"Not expensive, not expensive, only 66,000 yuan." The stall owner quoted the price

"It's ridiculously expensive. It only costs 30,000 or 40,000 yuan outside," said Mr. Fang, shaking his head.

The stall owner rolled his eyes and said nonchalantly, "Gold and silver are not valuable here, so I'm the only one willing to sell them."

"Let me take another look." Fang Li also shook his head and pulled Fang Yue away.

"If you miss this village, you will miss this shop!" the stall owner shouted at them.

Fang Yue also felt that these gold and silver items were too worthless.

They have found the governor, and there is a place inside for exchanging spirit beads, with one spirit bead costing ten thousand taels of silver.

"Does the Spiritual Pearl have any special uses?"

Fang Li asked, if it is only used as currency, the price is too expensive.

The person in charge was a middle-aged man. He was probably used to seeing people asking this question, so he didn't show any strange expression. He also saw that although the Fang family's clothes were tattered, the material of the clothes was good. Thinking that there was business to be done, he explained with all his heart.

"The spirit pearl contains spiritual energy, which is beneficial to cultivation. Even if it is small, a mosquito is still meat."

Fang Li: "It seems that the gold and silver in the mortal world are not of much value here."

"Ah?" The middle-aged man was stunned, then understood what he meant and nodded, "For cultivators, gold and silver are indeed of little value. If Yishui City was not in the mortal world, there would be no such exchange.

"Sir, you must exchange it."

"Let's exchange 20 spirit beads first."

Gold and silver cannot be used here. You can't do without money. You still have to exchange some spirit beads.

"Okay." The person in charge counted out 20 spirit beads with a smile on his face.

After Fang Li completed the transaction, he came to the counter with the word "Reception" written on it. There was a young man at the counter.

Fang Li cupped his hands and said respectfully:

"Sir, we are new here..."

"Do you have the Ascension Order? If you do, give it to me. If not, I won't receive you." The young man's tone was filled with impatience.

Upon hearing this, Fang Li hurriedly handed over the Ascension Order.

The young man took the Ascension Order, made a hand gesture upwards, looked at Fang Yue carefully for a while, then spoke slowly in a serious tone.

“The Ascension Ceremony will be held in a month, and the Governor will be responsible for providing accommodation until the end of the Ascension Ceremony.

At that time, no matter what the selection results are, everyone must move out of this place. Personal information is recorded in the Ascension Order, and it is strictly forbidden to snatch it. Anyone who snatches the Ascension Order of others will be severely punished once discovered.

Of course, if you find someone has snatched the Ascension Order, you can also report it. If it is verified to be true, you will be rewarded with 20 spirit beads.

Courtyard No. 362, go over there and find the servant to take you there."

The young man handed the Ascension Order back to Fang Yue, pointed to the right, and lay down again.

Fang Yue took the Ascension Order and looked in the direction the young man pointed. There stood a young man in a blue robe.

So Fang Li held Fang Yue and walked up to the boy and said politely

"Young man, could you please take us to Courtyard No. 362?"

The boy nodded, a friendly smile appeared on his face, and replied:

"Of course, you are new here, right? Please follow me."

After saying that, he led Fang Yue and his party to courtyard No. 362.

It was half an hour later when they arrived at the courtyard. Along the way, the young man enthusiastically told Fang Yue many things about Yishui City.

Fang Yue then realized that the Governor's Office was an organization set up by the immortal world in the mortal world to maintain order. Its main purpose was to prevent cultivators from interfering with the mortal world, and it also assisted in hosting the Ascension Conference.

The Ascension Conference is held every 10 years. Before each conference, the governor would send a group of messengers to the mortal world to search for people with a destiny to become immortals. The middle-aged Taoist priest she met was one of them.

Ascension Order, as the admission ticket to the Ascension Conference, each one is unique. Any attempt to snatch it will be invalid. Once discovered, there will be severe punishment.

A few days ago, someone came to register with a stolen Ascension Order. That person is still imprisoned in the dungeon of the governor. We will know what his fate will be after the envoy who went to investigate verifies it.

Most of the transactions in Yishui City are in spirit beads, and gold and silver are not valuable here. Although the governor provides accommodation, other living needs must be solved by oneself.

It was not easy for him to be chosen for this reception job, which was not a lot of work and he could earn 15 spirit beads every month.

In addition, the canteen of the governor's office also accepts meal orders, and 5 spirit beads are enough for one person to eat for a month.

Each courtyard has restrictions that can only be opened with the Ascension Order. You can also go to the management office to apply for a temporary restriction card, each of which only costs 1 spirit bead and is valid until the end of the Ascension Meeting.

After the young man left, Fang Yue followed his instructions and used the Ascension Order to open the ban. The yard was not big, with three rooms, which was enough for their family to live in. There was a water tank in the yard, which was full of water, and a big tree next to the yard wall.

The Fang family members each chose a yard to rest. They were really exhausted and just wanted to have a good sleep and think about other things tomorrow.
