Chapter 256: Abandonment
But seeing that Yu Shenyuan's face was as usual, calm and comfortable, but he frowned slightly, and he still showed a little unhappiness in the end. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Chu Yunsheng then remembered the slaughtering city gate guards she saw before entering the city, and she was inexplicably a little curious about this dark market, she turned her eyes to look at the old bustard and said, "When will the auction of the dark market start?"
When the old bustard heard Chu Yunsheng talking to her, she hurriedly stopped kowtowing, raised her messy face to look at Chu Yunsheng and said, "If you go back to Gongzi, there is still half an hour." β
Before entering Hopeless Town before, Yu Shenyuan also said that there was something strange in Hopeless Town, and looking at the expressions of those soldiers, there should be another reason, but his subordinates had not found it yet, but seeing that this old bustard in front of him, as soon as he appeared with these strong men, he instantly scattered birds and beasts in the lively street market just now, and it seems that she also has some fame in this area, otherwise these people would not have seen each other so well and made way out.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng took a step forward, looked down at the old bustard and said, "Then there is something new and interesting in this auction?" I heard that the annual auction in Hopeless Town gathers businessmen from all over the world, but seeing that posture at the gate of the city today seems to be looking for someone or something, and the investigation is so careful, do you know all kinds of reasons?"
When she said this, she had already crouched down in front of the bustard, and lowered her voice, just waiting for the bustard's answer.
At this point, the old bustard won't play any tricks.
Sure enough, hearing her say this, the old bustard was stunned, leaned closer to Chu Yunsheng, lowered his voice and said: " The reason why the dark market auction in Hopeless Town is so famous is also because as long as you have money here, there is nothing you can't buy, whether it is gold, silver, jewelry, rare beasts or even living people, you can buy it, and human auctions are originally prohibited in various countries, only in Hopeless Town, because there are often traders from Liao Kingdom coming in and out of the Hopeless Sea, as well as Meiji who is trafficked from Liao, so for a long time, the local government will turn a blind eye, as for the tight ...... of entering the city today, Gongzi just said."
Speaking of this, the old bustard knelt up straight, changed shares for a while, and made sure that there was no one else, so he lowered his voice a little more and said: "I also heard my relative who was on an errand in the yamen revealed, saying that it was very important to find someone from above, but I couldn't find out the specifics. β
When she said this, Chu Yunsheng had been paying attention to her expression, but seeing her calm expression and a little cautious and worried in her eyes, she knew that she didn't seem to be lying.
Just thinking about it, she heard Yu Shenyuan, who had been standing silently behind her at this moment, suddenly raised her steps and chuckled: "Since you are so interested, it is better to walk on it and find out." β
As he spoke, he turned his eyes and looked condescendingly at the old bustard who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to move, and said, "Since Mom is a figure with a head and a face in this hopeless town, she naturally has a way to show us the way and let us enter smoothly." β
Yu Shenyuan's voice was very soft and calm, but even so, it also carried the coercion that made people dare not resist in the slightest, the momentum of a person who has been in the top position for a long time, Mo said that the old bustard did not dare to say half a word, even Chu Yunsheng subconsciously wanted to follow him.
But then, when he thought about it, Brother Dumb was still in bed, still waiting for her to bring back the mask, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but hesitate a little, seeing that Yu Shenyuan had already walked in front, and the old bustard also got up from the ground very dogged and led the way, Chu Yunsheng had no choice but to follow, thinking that there were only people selling masks at the entrance, she bought the mask and went back, and she didn't go to the dark market with Yu Shenyuan.
However, the truth is often not satisfactory, and when they turn two remote alleys, and when they reach the entrance of the dark market that the bustard speaks of, there are still half of the mask vendors except for the two lanterns that flicker and disappear at the mouth of the alley.
Seeing this, the old bustard was embarrassed to accompany him and explained: "Don't be angry, Childe should be about to start, and those vendors saw that there were no more customers, and they all retreated." β
As he spoke, seeing that Chu Yunsheng showed a slightly disappointed look on his face, the old bustard's eyes turned around, and he seemed to comfort Chu Yunsheng and said: "But don't be disappointed, there is no outside, there are still in the dark market, but the price is several times more expensive than the outside, if the son wants to buy a mask and use it urgently, he can follow the old slave into the dark market." β
Yu Shenyuan's skills, this old bustard has also seen it with her own eyes, although she has been on the Fengyue field all the year round, but she is also an extremely greedy person who is afraid of death, so I am afraid that I will not dare to make any stumbling blocks for Yu Shenyuan and her, Chu Yunsheng is not afraid of what tricks she plays, not to mention that there is a powerful Yu Shenyuan on the side, there is no need to be afraid at all, she is not relieved that Dumb woke up and waited left and right and did not see her come back, how worried and scared the child should be.
Seeing that she listened to the old bustard's proposal, there was already a look of hesitation between her eyebrows, but she didn't make a decision, Yu Shenyuan only glanced at it, and saw all Chu Yunsheng's thoughts and thoughts in his eyes, he raised his chin and said to the old bustard: "In this case, let's go." β
As he spoke, he turned around again, looked at Chu Yunsheng who was standing in place, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my idiot brother won't be so fragile." β
As always, he was heartless and smiling, however, Chu Yunsheng saw a bitter taste in Yu Shenyuan's eyes.
Chu Yunsheng couldn't help twitching his eyebrows, and corrected him with black lines on his face: "Dumb is not an idiot, he just has a somewhat withdrawn personality. β
However, before she could finish speaking, Yu Shenyuan didn't seem to want to do anything with her about Dumb's affairs, and he had already strode up and followed the old bustard towards the dark alley with two white lanterns.
Chu Yunsheng had no choice but to take steps and follow, although he knew that it might not be good to say this, after all, it was a matter between the two brothers Yu Shenyuan and Dumb, but he still couldn't help but catch up with Yu Shenyuan and asked: "Dumb's temperament is like that, but I see that you, the elder brother, don't seem to have much brotherly affection for him, in the last time you were in the palace of the Patriotic Empire, you already recognized him, right? But why don't you recognize him?"
As soon as the words came out, Chu Yunsheng himself felt a little stupid, with his dumb temperament, even if Yu Shenyuan recognized him, I believe that he might not be able to accept Yu Shenyuan at once.
However, Yu Shenyuan didn't seem to think of what Chu Yunsheng cared about, and when he heard Chu Yunsheng's words, his forward steps suddenly paused, which made the old bustard who was following him startled, and he was almost frightened.
There was no light in the alley, and he could only vaguely see the outline of the person clearly by virtue of the hazy night, Chu Yunsheng also stopped, wanting to see the face of Yu Shenyuan who suddenly stopped walking, but he could only see his eyes shining in the hazy night, and with the loneliness of cold stars, and the words he blurted out at this time were like a bucket of ice water that suddenly fell from above the nine heavens, which made people's hearts instantly cold and thorough.
The night was hazy, the evening breeze was slow, and I only heard his cold voice ringing out in the empty alley: "How do I recognize him, his brother died twelve years ago, and in the face of the enemy's pursuit, his mother chose to protect him between life and death, and gave up saving his brother, so ...... Now, do you think I should recognize him now?!"
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng's heart also sank to the bottom of the ice lake in an instant.
Is that so?
So it was clear that they were twin brothers, and after knowing Dumb's identity, they all chose to ignore it and didn't want to recognize each other, it turned out that there was such an entanglement between them...... Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng thought that whenever Yu Shenyuan's face mentioned dumb, the coldness and depression in Yu Shenyuan's eyes, loneliness and indifference...... That's for Dumb, and it's also for the mother who was forced to abandon her out of desperation.
Without waiting for Chu Yunsheng to smooth out these thoughts, Yu Shenyuan no longer looked at her, turned around and strode forward to continue walking, and the old bustard who heard these words on the side had already stiffened in place, not daring to make a sound, at this time, seeing Yu Shenyuan suddenly striding forward, she hurriedly opened her two legs and chased after her.
At the end of this unknown alley was a stone door, which looked like a dead end from the outside, but in fact, the old bustard walked up to the stone gate and struck five rhythmically with his right palm, and with the last sound, two figures suddenly emerged from the darkness.
Chu Yunsheng blinked his eyes, and only then did he see that it was two burly men, who stood on both sides of the stone gate on the left and right, and saluted the old bustard in front of him and said, "Siniang." β
The old bustard nodded, completely losing the look of losing her soul in front of Yu Shenyuan and her just now, she said to the two people in a crisp voice: "These two are my distinguished guests, you want to come to this auction house to have a look, I will take them to see the excitement, you must remember not to slack off." β
As she spoke, she turned around and saluted Yu Shenyuan and Chu Yunsheng and said, "The entrance to the dark market is here." β
Hearing this, Yu Shenyuan nodded slightly, and the two big men pressed on several protrusions on the stone slab on the left and right, and after a while, they heard a rumbling sound from behind the stone slab, like the sound of dozens of carriages moving side by side with their wheels running over the road.
Immediately afterward, the huge stone slab miraculously folded in half, revealing a passage of bluestone slab steps leading straight underground.
This look is really a bit like the secret path of the mechanism seen in the red sleeves at that time, but at that time, she was accompanied by Su Jingshuo who pretended to be dumb, but now, it is Yu Shenyuan.
The other difference is that as the stone slab began to fold in half, the bright light inside also poured out from the dark passage in an instant, and after the entire dark passage was completely opened, Chu Yunsheng saw that there was not only an eight-treasure glazed lamp on both sides of the dark passage every five stone steps, but also a night pearl the size of a baby's fist was inlaid on the lamp base, so the entire dark passage was brightly lit, and even the lines of Chu Yunsheng's palm could be seen clearly.
Chu Yunsheng was secretly glad in her heart that the entrance to this dark passage was neither dark nor dark, which made her feel a little less uneasy and fearful of the dark instinct, and at the same time, she was also secretly sighing that the behind-the-scenes manipulators of this dark market were so generous, just one entrance was already so luxurious, so what kind of situation would the auction venue behind it be.
Thinking like this, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but be a little more interested in the auction of this dark market.
At this time, Yu Shenyuan had already followed the old bustard down the secret path, and Chu Yunsheng had no choice but to lower his eyes and follow.
When the secret passage first entered, it was still a little narrow, less than a zhang wide, and the further down it went, the more spacious it became, and in front of another stone gate at the end, there were already more than two zhang.
The old bustard, who is called Siniang, is obviously extremely familiar with this place, she walked to the stone gate, and after patting for a while, she saw the stone door open in response, and this time after the stone door was opened, seeing the golden and brilliant scene inside, Chu Yunsheng almost had the illusion that he was in the former palace of the Chen Kingdom......
Because the room in front of me is so splendid!
From the ground behind the stone door has been paved with a thick layer of fox fur, stepping on it soft as if walking in the clouds, and although there are not too many furnishings in this room, but the palace lanterns and flowers placed are all boutique, the octagonal lamp hanging on the high ceiling, the eight corners are inlaid with a fist-sized emerald gem, and around the gem are embedded with eight cat's eye size night pearls, just above the position of the wick, there is also a night pearl that is a few points larger than the emerald gem, only this octagonal palace lamp, is enough to make the whole room dazzlingγ
And this is the entrance of the dark market auction hall, Chu Yunsheng, who was standing at the door, faced with these extravagant decorations, secretly guessing in his heart the identity of the person behind the manipulation, and at the same time, he was also a little more vigilant about the identity of the person who could participate in such an auction.
And the old bustard raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Yunsheng and Yu Shenyuan with the afterglow of his eyes, seeing that the two of them saw such a luxurious scene, their faces did not change and their expressions remained as usual, normal people often come here, even if they can't help but admire the luxury here, they have to be a little respectful of this dark market auction, but these two people are good, they don't have any expressions, so that the old bustard can't see through their identities, therefore, it also makes her more and more careful to treat these two people.
"The auction hall is in the middle, and the two sons please come with me. As he spoke, the bustard lowered his eyes and walked ahead to lead the way.
After only two steps, I saw the side door of this huge room suddenly open, and then a person came out of the side door.
