Chapter 102: The Strange Flea Market
The Wuyi cold fresh store is in a bustling street corner, the storefront decoration is very simple, in such a place, it looks out of place, the store door is very deserted, occasionally a few people dressed in mysterious clothes enter, but no one comes out after a long time.
Gu Xiaobai found a place to park the car, and then stepped into the Wuyi cold fresh shop with Jiuwei one after the other.
"What do you want?" asked a fat man in denim overalls.
"I'm looking for pockmarks. ”
The fat man put down the scaling knife in his hand, took something like a tablet from the shelf behind him, and tapped it a few times with his fat fingers.
"Selling the heart of a strange beast?"
Gu Xiaobai nodded and put his backpack on the counter.
The fat man opened it and took a look, and then motioned for Gu Xiaobai to go inside with him.
After the fat man left, another person immediately took his place, and the scaling knife flew up and down in his hand, and large fish scales peeled off.
Although the Wuyi cold fresh shop is not big, it is very deep, and the two of them walked forward more than ten meters behind the fat man, but there was still no end, and huge fish tanks were placed on both sides, and the fishy smell continued to penetrate their nostrils.
Next to the last fish tank, a small door suddenly appeared, which seemed to be another exit here, but it was impossible to know where it led.
The fat man pressed the door a few times, and the small door suddenly opened, and with a glimmer of light projected inside, Gu Xiaobai judged that the passage behind the door was underground.
"Shop 071 in Area B, the pockmarks you are looking for are there. After speaking, the fat man stretched out his hand and motioned for the two to go in.
After the two of them walked into the passage one after the other, the small door was slammed shut, and the only remaining light suddenly became much less, and the two could only walk forward cautiously step by step.
After walking for about a few dozen meters, the front suddenly opened up, and the noisy voices echoed in the small space, this turned out to be an underground market, and the passages were lined with different stalls, and the things sold were all related to abilities.
Gu Xiaobai glanced up, this was Area B, and the nearest store was marked 019, he determined the direction of progress and shuttled through the crowd.
People here say too much, little and too little, and basically keep the passage half full, and people wander in front of different stalls, looking for opportunities to find the goods they need, and then pay for them.
“026......”
“034......”
The numbers are getting bigger and bigger, and the direction in which they are moving is correct, at this time, Gu Xiaobai found that the Nine-Tails behind him had not shown any surprised expression since she came in, could it be that she had been here before?
"Have you been here?" Gu Xiaobai turned his head and asked?
"Not here, but it should be a similar place, there are a lot of ability flea markets like this in the country, and I've been there a few times by chance. ”
Gu Xiaobai didn't continue, but buried his head in a serious search for his goal.
“059......”
“063......”
Along the way, Gu Xiaobai saw a lot of strange things, including unknown beast eggs, glowing animal skins, weapons made of unknown metals, and various kinds of objects, there were so many types that he couldn't see them at all, and he also found that all the shop owners were wearing masks, perhaps not wanting customers to see their true faces.
"071!" This shop is basically the same as all the previous shops, except that the items sold here are a little strange, and they are all kinds of exotic animal parts, which are carefully displayed in containers, beating slowly and regularly.
"What do you want? Today I got a new snake gall of a flame-tailed snake, the best in the world. "The boss is also wearing a mask, and the voice is basically the same as on the phone, and he is a young man.
"What's the use of buying these alien beast organs?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then said sharply, "Are you kidding me?"
Gu Xiaobai hurriedly waved his hand to signal him not to be excited, and took out the heart of the red-eyed pig demon from his bag.
"It's you, come, give it to me. ”
The masked man took the heart, put it on his phone and looked at it carefully for a while.
"Okay, no problem, it's still fresh, I can add 50,000 to you, if it's okay, I'll transfer money to you now." "The masked man is straightforward, and there is no superfluous nonsense.
"There's nothing wrong with trading, but can you answer my previous question?"
The masked man placed the heart in his hand into a container of yellow liquid and began to operate on the small machine.
"That's all you want to know?"
Gu Xiaobai said with a smile: "No way, curiosity is heavy." ”
The masked man glanced at the Nine-Tails behind Gu Xiaobai, and his eyes suddenly froze in place.
"She's ...... Strange beast?" Although he couldn't see his face, Gu Xiaobai could tell from his tone that the masked man was probably opening his mouth wide open at this time, with a look of surprise.
Nine-Tails subconsciously hid behind Gu Xiaobai, and she saw something in the masked man's eyes that frightened her.
"Don't beat her upset, answer my question first. ”
The masked man waved his hand and said, "Because there is a big boss who collects the organs of foreign beasts, and I am a second-hand dealer to earn some oil money, as for what they want to do with it, then I don't know." ”
After confirming that 850,000 yuan was in the account, the transaction was successfully concluded, and the masked man glanced at the nine tails a few more times.
"Leave a contact information, and come to me directly if there is good goods in the future." The masked man was the first to speak.
"No need, I will naturally come to you when I have the goods, so I'll leave you a phone number. Gu Xiaobai deliberately concealed his information, because his intuition told him that the masked man was not a good bird.
After that, Gu Xiaobai and Jiuwei turned around again, returned to the May Day Cold Fresh Shop, opened the door from the inside, and the fat man who was packing up the goods turned around and saw the two of them come out and greeted them.
"The amount of your transaction is 850,000 yuan, and you need to pay 40,000 yuan in taxes. ”
"What, why?" Gu Xiaobai wondered.
"It's your first time here, you don't know it's normal, we provide protection here, so it's normal to collect taxes, five percent of the tax, paid by the seller. ”
"Give it to him, this man is not simple. Nine-Tails reminded softly in his ear.
Although the fat man looks honest and responsible, he is actually an A-level peak ability, as the so-called people can't be good-looking, but the Nine-Tails saw the clue.
After paying the tax, the two finally left the Wuyi cold fresh store safely.
The car was driving smoothly, Gu Xiaobai thought back to the scenes of the abnormal flea market, and there was a feeling in his heart that it was difficult to calm down.
"You said you'd ever seen a place like this?"
Nine-Tails nodded and said: "This kind of flea market has existed hundreds of years ago, at that time, they were all set up in a bright and bright way, selling some strange things, and then the ability became less and less accepted by ordinary people, they should have moved the stall underground, but in fact, the essence has not changed, they are just some traders who make special ability items." ”
Gu Xiaobai nodded, thinking in his heart how to use this place to make some money, just selling the heart of the alien beast may not be advisable, after all, the location of the alien beast is unknown, and if he encounters a hard stubble, his life will be in danger, maybe he can try to know the traders here and find a way to make money.
"Lord Qinglong, you ...... Short of money?"
Gu Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "I spent a lot of money when I bought Hundred Birds Chaofengju, most of which was paid by Xiangyu, so I want to make some money to pay her back, otherwise I always feel that I can't go away." ”
The nine-tailed jade hand was gently placed on Gu Xiaobai's arm, and the warm touch came immediately.
"I know a way to get you lots and lots of money. ”
"Oh, really?" Gu Xiaobai suddenly became excited, and the face of the money fan was exposed.
"Well, have you forgotten Ying Long? His greatest hobby is collecting treasures, and the last time I saw him, his lair was full of precious stones, which should be enough to buy hundreds of sets of Hundred Birds and Phoenix Residences. ”
Gu Xiaobai looked at the Nine-Tails dumbfounded, "So terrifying?"
Nine-Tails smiled and nodded, "And if you ask for it, he will definitely give all the treasures unconditionally." ”
A wicked smile appeared on Gu Xiaobai's face.
"And how do you find him?"
"With your current strength, I'm afraid you can only rely on luck. ”
Gu Xiaobai's expression suddenly collapsed, relying on luck? Is that not looking for a needle in a haystack?
"When your strength reaches a certain strength, you will be able to feel the connection with the Origin Beast, and you will naturally be able to find him at that time. ”
Gu Xiaobai sighed, sure enough, it was not as simple as he imagined, it seemed that doing business with the Ability Flea Market was the most practical way to make money now.
At this moment, Gu Xiaobai's mobile phone rang suddenly, and he pressed the answer button, which was Long Xiangyu's voice.
"Xiaobai, come to my house, my parents have something to say to you. ”
Gu Xiaobai was shocked in his heart, and he felt nervous that he was suddenly going to his father-in-law's door.
"You're not going to tell them directly, are you?"
"Anyway, you're here soon, I'm here every day. ”
Gu Xiaobai smiled bitterly in his heart, it was a coincidence, the four ladies were going to get together in the Long family.
Although he was terrified, he still changed his direction and drove all the way to the Long family.
Ability Flea Market, Zone B.
A group of men in black cut through the crowd, their goal clear.
No. 071 is Mazi's stall, and when he saw this group of people in black, Mazi immediately stood up.
"Coming, all set, come in. ”
The stalls here are all set up outside the door, and Mazi directly let them into the store, which is usually a forbidden area for customers to enter.
In the room was a row of iron cabinets, and Mazi hurriedly opened a row of cabinets, and what appeared in front of everyone was dozens of strange beast hearts stored in airtight containers, beating regularly like a symphony orchestra.
"Thirty-nine in total, how's it going?"
Several men in black examined it carefully, then opened the suitcase they were carrying with them and began to transfer the heart in the container.
The case was specially made and designed to store the hearts of the beasts, and in a few moments, all the hearts were transferred to the suitcase.
One of the black-clothed men took the machine from Mazi's hand, operated it a few times, and a large amount of money was transferred into Mazi's account, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and muttered vigorously: "Happy cooperation, happy cooperation......
After the man in black finished everything, he turned around and was about to leave, but he was suddenly dragged by pockmarks at the corner of his clothes.
"I met a strange beast today, and it was very special......"
Before Mazi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the man in black: "Bring me its heart, and I will only be responsible for paying." ”
Asako waved her hand and continued, "It's the first time I've seen a strange beast that can transform into a human form, and I thought you might be interested. ”
The man in black was stunned, and they exchanged glances with each other.
"Tell us what you have. ”
"No problem, it's just that this ...... reward" Asako rubbed her fingers.
