Chapter 601: Life and Death Documents
Lao Ji no longer has any credibility in the hearts of Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe, and it is better to believe in his words than to believe that the old sow can go up the tree. But they can't just leave Lao Ji here and ignore it, after all, this old slippery head is still the key to whether they can leave the Netherworld Ruins as they wish.
When the two went out, they saw that the people of the Huang family business group were leaving one after another, Zhang Chi saw Huang Qitai in the crowd, and hurriedly walked towards him, Huang Qitai stood with a cold and arrogant young man, the young man was handsome and chic, and his arrogant face looked like Chu Jianghe 2.0.
Huang Qitai saw Zhang Chi and quickly turned his face to the side, obviously trying to avoid Zhang Chi.
Zhang Daxian shouted, "Master Huang!"
Huang Qitai was named by him in public, and since he couldn't hide, he could only walk over and said with a smile: "Yo, Brother Zhang, Brother Chu, you are all here!"
Zhang Chi said, "Is Master Huang okay?"
Huang Qitai nodded and said, "The young owner came over and paid the fine, and we can go." The young man with a cold and arrogant face next to him was Huang Qiyi, the young owner of the Huang family's business group. This time, not only Huang Qitai was released, but everyone in the Huang family business group was released, and their goods were also released.
Huang Qitai didn't want to talk to Zhang Chi more, and left quickly under the pretext that he had something to do, Zhang Daxian wanted to take advantage of the east wind of the Huang family's business group to get Lao Ji out, but seeing that people avoided it, he obviously refused to help Lao Ji pay money, in fact, Huang Qitai can't be blamed, everyone met in Pingshui, and five thousand gold coins is not a small amount, and there is really no reason for people to help pay money.
But Lao Ji is a bit wronged in this matter, he is not from the Huang family business group at all, thinking of this, Zhang Chi thought of a reason, and turned back to find the warden. The matter has been very clear, everyone in the Huang family's business group has paid the fine, and the goods are fine, and there is no reason to detain Lao Ji, who is not a person in the business group.
But when I asked, I knew that Lao Ji was not only unable to get out but more troublesome, and now Lao Ji was guilty, and the Huang family merchant group flatly denied that the prohibited goods transported were related to them from top to bottom, and all the responsibility was put on Ji Chang's body, which was equivalent to Ji Chang's responsibility, and now it was no longer a problem that could be solved by five thousand gold coins.
Zhang Chi inquired about the price code, and wanted Lao Ji to come out alive and asked for 100,000 gold coins.
Zhang Daxian was also dumbfounded when he heard this number, it was so dark, and there were corrupt officials and corrupt officials everywhere in this dark ruins. The Huang family business group is not a good person, it is obvious that they are pouring out prohibited goods, but they all rely on Lao Ji, this time it is really a stealing cow and catching a peg.
The two left the prison and looked up at the bright sky, Chu Jianghe sighed and said: "One hundred thousand gold coins, where are we going to get this money?" I don't think Lao Ji is a good person anyway, so let him fend for himself in prison." "That being said, giving up Lao Ji is tantamount to giving up their hope of going back, and Chu Jianghe is just talking.
Zhang Chi said: "The Huang family business group is really not a thing, it is clear that all the responsibility is put on Lao Ji, and Lao Ji is on his back." ”
Chu Jianghedao: "What else can I do now? People have money, money can make ghosts grind, we don't have money, we can't move an inch in the Netherworld Ruins." ”
Zhang Chi proposed to go to Qin Luzhu, but he really couldn't think of any way, Chu Jianghe didn't see Qin Luzhu with his own eyes, and after listening to Zhang Chi's insistence, he also wanted to see it with his own eyes.
The two came to the lord's mansion, and yesterday they spent money to send a post, and the warrior guarding the door asked them to come over today to inquire about the news, but when they came to the door, they found that the warrior guarding the door had changed, Chu Jianghe said depressedly: "Why don't the people here have any integrity at all? ”
The two of them walked over and asked, but before they could get closer, the warrior guarding the gate angrily rebuked: "What are you doing?
Zhang Chi sighed secretly in his heart, although the outfit is different, but this thing is at best a guard at the door, what is a security guard?
Zhang Chi glanced at Chu Jianghe, Chu Jianghe knew what he meant, and reluctantly took out a hundred gold coins, which was too much to spend.
The gatekeeper got the gold coin and immediately put away the fierce and vicious attitude, Zhang Chi found that the corruption of the Netherworld Ruins has penetrated into all levels of society, and even a doorman dares to blatantly take bribes, bribes are bribes, the most annoying thing is that these people don't help you do things after they receive money, and the gatekeeper who helped send the worship post yesterday will not be on duty until the day after tomorrow, that is to say, he lied yesterday, and said that they will come and wait for news today, and it is not clear whether the worship post is sent or not.
The warrior who guarded the gate offered that if they could pay another two hundred gold coins, he could help the two of them send another prayer post, Zhang Daxian and Chu Jianghe were both smart people, and they couldn't be fooled twice in a row.
The two decided to leave the Lord's Mansion first, and come back to ask for news the day after tomorrow, they didn't have much money in their hands, they decided to try their luck with the Adventurers' Union, and asked that the union was in the north market of Tongtian Street, and they looked for it along Tongtian Street.
Tongtian Street North Market is the most prosperous market in Guangming City, close to the market crowd is endless, there are peddlers and pawns, there are beautiful men and women, there are rare and exotic beasts, there are natural treasures, Zhang Daxian people are used to seeing the world, Chu Jianghe has never seen such a scene, it is dizzying.
Zhang Daxian does not squint, although the commercial streets on both sides are very attractive, but he has no money, no money to see what he wants to buy only hot eyes, he can't imagine that there is a place here that specializes in selling Dan furnaces, which are placed with various alchemy furnaces, although there is no rare material of Ruyi gold Dan furnace, but there is no lack of materials such as black shell green.
Zhang Chi also saw a chrysanthemum iron Dan furnace, the material of chrysanthemum iron is very special, it can float on water, the texture is like chrysanthemum petals, covered with the body of the Dan furnace, this Dan furnace can refine the gold pill within the five grades, the material is very light, in fact, it is a grade higher than the black shell green, just because the alchemist needs to have an accurate grasp of the fire, so ordinary Dan masters rarely choose this kind of Dan furnace, and the waste rate is too high.
The Dan furnace is marked with the price, the price of the chrysanthemum iron Dan furnace is very cheap, only ten gold coins, Zhang Chi thought he was wrong, and asked the owner of the shop, if it was really only ten gold coins, Zhang Chi bargained with him, and actually won it at the price of five gold coins.
In Chu Jianghe's opinion, this thing is a little abnormal, what are you doing when you buy a broken stove? Although this thing looks a little beautiful, but it is not worth the money, he doesn't know that the furnace is like a sword in the eyes of the Dan Master, Zhang Daxian went to the Tiankeng to perform a mission this time, and collected all the treasures, only bringing the Transformers combination knife and combination shield, Rao is so, and he was also taken away by Bai Yunsheng and his son.
Zhang Chi passed by the pill shop just now, and specially inquired about the price of the golden pill, even the ordinary Peiyuan Dan can be sold for five hundred gold coins, and the materials needed can be bought in the market, taking Peiyuan Dan as an example, only ten gold coins can be purchased, and the pill pharmacy will provide raw materials to Danshi, and the gold pill refined by Danshi will be directly recycled. Once and again, a pill can have a profit of four hundred and ninety gold coins, and the higher the grade of the golden pill, the higher the repurchase price.
So Zhang Chi moved his mind to alchemy, wanting to survive in the Netherworld, and it was impossible to do it without money. If he buys materials for alchemy, with his ability, there should be no problem in getting some living expenses to subsidize it.
Chu Jianghe lacked understanding of Zhang Chi's skills, seeing that he had purchased a set of alchemy equipment and some alchemy materials, it cost less than two hundred gold coins in total, and Chu Jianghe did not object, so he tossed it.
When the two of them were about to arrive at the Adventurers' Guild, they saw an auction going on in front of the door.
The Netherworld Ruins are strictly hierarchical, advocating power, advocating money, advocating force, although Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe have not been here for a long time, they have already deeply felt the indifference of people here.
The scene is auctioning the slave girl, the two stood in the crowd and watched the excitement for a while, the crowd of onlookers began to bid, the slave girl also because of the appearance of the price varies, but basically very cheap, the most expensive is only two hundred gold coins.
Chu Jiang said: "This is actually a slave society. ”
Zhang Chi said: "Money is omnipotent, corruption is everywhere, I didn't expect that there is such a place to hide filth and dirt in the ruins." He smiled and said, "This slave girl is good-looking, we still have some gold coins, do you want to buy one and go back to be a daughter-in-law?"
Chu Jianghe knew that he was joking with himself: "I want to find a daughter-in-law and still spend money to buy it?
When the two joked with each other, another female slave was brought to the auction table, but it was a little girl, Chu Jianghe couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the little girl on the auction table: "Little red cherry!"
Zhang Chi only paid attention to his shouting, and looked at it, the slave girl who was auctioned was really Little Red Sakura, Little Red Sakura was wearing tattered clothes, her face was full of tears, she bit her lip and didn't dare to cry, the slave trader who pulled her up, grabbed Little Red Sakura's hair, and said loudly: "Let's take a look, this little beauty, how peugeot and more watery, natural beauty billet, she can also recognize words, enter the hall and kitchen, and warm the bed!"
The crowd of onlookers burst into laughter, most of them did not show any sympathy, Chu Jianghe was furious, he was about to rush up for the little red cherry, Zhang Chi grabbed Chu Jianghe's wrist, and said in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive, let's take a picture of her in the right way." ”
Zhang Chi thinks that Xiao Hongying shouldn't be worth a few dollars, and the beautiful and sexy slave girls just now are at most two hundred gold coins, and they still have more than two hundred gold coins in their hands, so they should be able to buy this poor little girl.
"The starting price is 100 gold coins!"
After the slave traders told the price, no one bid for a long time.
"I'll give out a hundred and ten!" said a bearded man.
Chu Jianghe was about to open his mouth to ask for a price, but Zhang Chi reminded him to wait, after all, they didn't have much money in their hands, and they tried not to arouse the other party's competitiveness.
Sure enough, there was no one bidding at the scene, and the slave trader shouted: "One hundred and ten gold coins once, twice!"
"One hundred and twenty gold coins!" Chu Jianghe seized the time to start bidding.
Everyone looked at Chu Jianghe, Chu Jianghe tried his best to be calm, Xiao Hongying also saw the two people in the crowd, she sniffed, tears couldn't stop flowing, she was already desperate, but the appearance of the two of them rekindled hope in her heart.
"One hundred and thirty gold coins!" the bearded man didn't seem ready to give up.
Chu Jiang Dao: "One hundred and forty gold coins!"
"Two hundred gold coins!"
Zhang Daxian secretly screamed in his heart, the bearded man obviously had the intention of getting it, and all the money they had on them now only added up to two hundred and forty, and the situation was not optimistic.
Chu Jiang Dao: "Two hundred and ten!"
"Three hundred!" the other party broke through the bottom line they could bear in one bite.
Chu Jianghe is also determined to win today: "Four hundred gold coins!"
Zhang Daxian knew that he was more energetic, and he didn't know how to end today's auction, anyway, four hundred gold coins was by no means the final price, and sure enough, the bearded man continued to increase the weight, this time directly added to eight hundred gold coins, and the scene was in an uproar, you must know that eight hundred gold coins can already be auctioned in the market Most of the female slaves, a little girl is obviously not worth so much money.
Chu Jianghe shouted: "A thousand gold coins!" He was completely out of the way, no matter what, take a picture of the little red cherry first, and then talk about it, the money can go back and find a way.
The bearded man laughed, he said that he would no longer bid and give the little red cherry blossom to Chu Jianghe, Zhang Chi just suspected that this goods and the slave traders were in the same group, and deliberately helped to raise the price, this method is very common, if it is not about himself, it will not have any effect, but it is the little red cherry that will be auctioned, so Chu Jianghe will auction her at any cost, and the other party is using his psychology to auction the price all the way to a thousand gold coins, and the onlookers have regarded Chu Jianghe as a big wrongdoer.
After the photograph, you have to pay the money with one hand and the person with the other.
Of course, Chu Jianghe couldn't take out so many gold coins now, so he said to the slave traders: "I don't have that much money with me, but I live in a nearby inn, you can go back with me to get it." He and Zhang Chi discussed an idea just now, let's talk about deceiving people first.
The smile on the slave trader's face suddenly retracted: "No money, you dare to participate in the auction without money, don't you know our rules here?"
Chu Jianghe said proudly: "What rules?"
"Disrupt the market and interfere with the auction, there is no mercy!"
The slave trader drew his scimitar from his waist, the blade of the knife trembled like a stream of autumn water in the skylight, and a powerful murderous aura forced Chu Jianghe from all directions.
Zhang Chi hurriedly walked over with a smile: "This friend, don't be angry, we just didn't bring so much money out, and it's not that we don't have money, it's better to take the little girl back with us to get the money." ”
The slave trader snorted coldly, "When I am a three-year-old?" He suddenly put the scimitar on Xiao Hongying's neck: "I'll give you a stick of incense and come back with two thousand gold coins, otherwise I'll kill her!"
Zhang Chi patted Chu Jianghe on the shoulder, reminding him not to be impulsive for the time being, there is still time, find a way to get some money back, and see if there is anything to sell on them, Chu Jianghe turned around with anger.
Little Red Sakura cried out loud: "Big brother, save me! Don't go, don't leave me!"
The slave trader sneered: "Big brother, I know you know, stranger, now I want 10,000 gold coins, and I won't sell any less son!"
Chu Jianghe turned around angrily, his eyes murderous and awe-inspiring.
The slave trader said: "What a murderous spirit, you are a warrior, okay! I will give you a chance to fight a fair duel, if you win, I will give her to you for nothing, if you lose, you must sign a contract with me and become my slave!"
Chu Jianghe nodded and said, "Okay!"
In the cheers of everyone, Chu Jianghe walked onto the auction table, the challenge was put forward by the slave traders, but it was not him who competed, but the bearded man who was bidding with Chu Jianghe just now, the matter was already clear, the bearded man just now was a nursery, and he deliberately helped on the side, wanting to auction the little red cherry blossom at a good price.
A duel is inevitable, and the private duel in the Netherworld is within the scope of official permission, and if the two parties agree to a duel, they can sign a life and death document in advance, and life and death are mutually secure.
Chu Jianghe signed his name on the life and death documents, pressed down his handprint, and Zhang Chi whispered to him: "If you lose, do you want to rob people?"
Chu Jianghe glanced at him, and before the fight started, this thing would destroy his prestige, but after thinking about it, he nodded and said in a low voice: "If I lose, you will rob people, no matter what, you can't let the little red cherry blossoms fall into the hands of these bastards." ”
Zhang Chi smiled at Chu Jianghe, because Chu Jianghe's righteous and courageous actions at the critical moment also had some good impressions of him, proving that Chu Jianghe's nature was not bad.
The bearded man walked up to the auction table with a big knife in his hand, and the slave trader proposed that there was another deep meaning behind the duel of life and death, and he had already begun to bet on the spot, sitting in this duel, he could make a lot of money no matter whether he won or lost.
Zhang Chi's sinister understanding of the human nature of the Netherworld Ruins has added another layer, there are really not many good people in the Netherworld, the onlookers did not show the slightest sense of justice when the little girl was auctioned just now, and now a life-and-death duel is about to happen, most people are happy to see it, and they have begun to rush to bet.
There are almost no bets on Chu Jianghe, Zhang Chi knows that Chu Jianghe has the strength of the two-grade rain realm in the martial arts, and the spiritual path has also reached the dual realm of spiritual energy.
Zhang Chi thought that Chu Jianghe still had a chance of winning, and at this time, if his companions did not top, who would be willing to stand up to him? Zhang Chi bet all the two hundred and forty gold coins on Chu Jianghe, this is a desperate bet, only a desperate bet can have the courage to fight against the water, he quietly told Chu Jianghe about it, if Chu Jianghe is defeated, not only will they not be able to take away the little red cherry, but also will become nameless, the most important thing is that Chu Jianghe's defeat means death.
The bearded man slowly pulled the big knife out of the scabbard, he was two meters tall, the length of this knife was one meter five, and the width reached thirty centimeters.
The slave owner laughed and said, "I forgot to introduce him, his name is Tanu, and he has a habit of never leaving a living mouth in a duel." ”
