I have to say that even the Hongchen woman here is comparable to a star on TV in her appearance and temperament.

I became more and more curious about what kind of place this mysterious Nine Cellars was.

As I ran around the corner, I was greeted by a different scene, completely different from what I had imagined.

I thought that the legendary Nine Cellars were just a small bazaar, after all, it was hidden between the cracks of the city, and in my mind, it was at most a similar market.

When I first stepped into this place, it completely turned my imagination upside down.

The houses in front of me are all full of quaint atmosphere, the main colors are black, red, and blue, all the roof tiles are still used, and the edges of the roof are all delicate wood carvings, with dragons, tigers, and wolves.

As far as the eye can see, there is almost no separation between the houses, except for a path through them, the area is not large, and most of them are only one storey, and a few have two storey pavilions.

The street floor is all paved with green bricks, and like the narrow passage I entered, the ground is polished and translucent.

I guess it's because there aren't many pedestrians here in the morning, but it's still more lively than outside.

I looked back and forth, and I couldn't tell where it was, so I randomly chose the left direction and walked slowly inside.

The streets were very narrow, and the quaint houses with open doors on both sides were not all shops, but also where people lived, and I saw several elderly people, all carrying chairs and sitting in the doorways with their eyes closed.

The further you go inside, the more people there are.

The pedestrians I bumped into head-on were indeed diverse, as if everyone had their own story, and they all gave people a sense of distance that they didn't want people to approach.

There are long-haired men with dirty and lame legs, courteous businessmen with glasses, men with swords in ancient robes, and modern policemen in police uniforms...... In short, there's everything.

Even though I was just a student and even walked down the street in my school uniform, the pedestrians here didn't find it strange and no one was interested in me.

This made me very comfortable, and I started looking for a goal from being nervous at first, and gradually relaxed.

After about six or seven minutes of walking inside, I saw the first fork in the road.

I looked around for a long time and made sure there were really no road signs here.

After hesitating for a while, I decided to go in first, anyway, no one cared about me, so I had to come out again.

Two hundred meters in front of the road, on both sides are very ordinary storefronts selling cigarettes and alcohol.

Further inside, I heard a commotion.

Because it was really quiet on the street just now, the noise at this time made me extremely uncomfortable, laughing, urging, shouting and scolding...... There are also various sounds of slapping tables and machines.

As soon as I walked a few steps, I saw a middle-aged man in a white shirt, kicked out of the house, fell heavily to the ground and screamed in pain.

On the ground where he was lying, there was a pool of blood, and if you looked closely, it was actually his forearm, which had been cut off.

After a while, two lean men with pale faces came out of the house, one of whom held a bloody forearm that had just been chopped off, and threw it to the man in the white shirt, and said in a cold voice:

"The fifth master said, before this point tomorrow, you can't make up the eight million gambling debts and destroy your whole family. ”

With that, the two men turned around and went back inside.

Eight million, I instantly gasped......

The man in the white shirt was sweating profusely, but he didn't give up, gritted his teeth and took off his clothes to hug the broken arm, then staggered and ran out, leaving only the miserable stumps on the ground.

Only then did I realize that this was the "gambling street".

No wonder it's so lively, even during the day.

However, although this street is noisy, it is all focused on the inside of the house, and there are not many people on the street outside.

I thought that every road here should be connected, and it was really not worth it to go back, so I just quickened the pace and moved forward.

The gambling street is much longer than I imagined, I really don't understand, such a long street, but every gambling house on both sides is full of noisy, why do so many people like to gamble......

At this time, I rarely saw an old man cleaning the streets.

I thought to myself, this must be a normal ordinary person.

So he quickened his pace and walked over, and asked with a polite smile:

"Hello, old man. ”

The old man focused on sweeping the floor, and when my words fell, he didn't even raise his head.

I coughed embarrassedly twice, reached out and tugged at the old man's arm and clothes, and continued to smile and ask:

"Grandpa, may I ask how to get to the "Line Street"?"

This time the old man finally stopped the broom, and looked at me strangely, I don't know if it was an illusion, but when he looked up at me, I saw that his eyes were blue.

I was slightly stunned, and when I blinked and looked again, his eyes were back to normal, just brighter than normal.

The old man opened his mouth and said:

"What are you going to do on Line Street?"

I said directly:

"Naturally, it's looking for clues. ”

The old man kept staring at me, as if trying to see my inner thoughts from my eyes, and continued to ask:

"Who to give you a clue for?"

I have nothing to hide, so I said directly:

"My parents, they're missing, and I'm going to find them here. ”

The old man's expression was calm, and he said:

"I'm missing, why don't you look for the police?"

I sighed helplessly and said with a smile:

"Hey, if the police can help me, why should I find here, old man, do you know where the "Line Street" is?"

The old man paused, and finally finally squeezed out a rare slight smile and said:

"Naturally, I know that if you go forward and turn a street and come to the end, it will be Line Street. ”

"It's this line street, the most rules, ordinary people may not be able to find something when they go, it is said that what Jiujiao letter is needed, so that they can really buy clues or hire someone to check the clues. ”

Jiujiao Han, Xu Youcai didn't tell me.

I hurriedly asked the old man:

"Where can I get the Nine Cellar Letters?"

Who knew that the old man had already walked away slowly with a broom, shaking his head and saying as he walked:

"I'm a bad old man, where do I know what Jiujiao Han is......"

I watched the old man leave anxiously and chagrined, and my mind kept recalling Xu Youcai's words, making sure that he hadn't told me anything about the Jiujiao Letter.

How can this be?

I don't know the place in this Nine Cellars, and I can't even find the way, let alone get some Nine Cellar letters.

After thinking about it, I've come here anyway, so it's better to go to Line Street to see the situation first.

As soon as I got started, I noticed a wooden sign on the ground.

I bent down and picked it up, the wooden sign is in the same style as the ancient house here, with lifelike animal patterns carved on it, and a strange red medallion printed in the center, the fine lines on the medallion are incomprehensible, but the word "nine" is engraved in the center.

I turned over the wooden sign and looked at it, and I was overjoyed, it was actually the three words "Nine Cellar Letters"!
