1191, Mego who eats soft rice

Tattoo culture is not prevalent in the wizarding country, Ren Xiaosu came all the way from the south, and he has only seen tattoos on porters near the post station, and at that time, Mego also explained to him: These people have been criminals before, so they used tattoos to mark.

Therefore, in the wizarding kingdom, tattoos are actually a sign of shame for ordinary people.

But this is not the case in the underworld, where they use tattoos as a sign of rebellion, and the most loyal guardians tattoo their faces as a sign of their determination to fight the wizarding order.

Bounty hunters like Chen Jingshu can disguise themselves as ordinary people and return to the surface at any time and blend in with the crowd.

But not with these guardians, who will be alien to the others once they return to the surface.

In the quiet of the underworld, the tattoos on the Guardian's face look unusually hideous.

His clothes were shabby leather jackets, and his feet were wearing boots with open edges, and although it was already 36 degrees Celsius on the surface, it was still shady underground.

When Chen Jingshu answered the code, the guardian opened a mottled iron door beside him.

Everyone rushed in, and Ren Xiaosu, who was walking in front, felt that the underground suddenly became lively, and in front of him was an open field as wide as an underground factory.

The walls of the "underground factory" are also painted with a lot of graffiti, and there are "guardians" with knives patrolling around.

Hundreds of people gathered here to set up stalls, some to inquire about prices, and most of them covered themselves tightly, as if they were afraid that they would be remembered.

Ren Xiaosu glanced at the goods on the ground and wondered: "There are clothes, daily necessities, and contraband such as swords and crossbow arrows, where did this come from?"

"The black market in the entire city of Gnent is underground, and there are dozens of small black markets like this, and there are two or three black markets that are more than ten times larger than this," Chen Jingshu said. Moreover, there are 90% of the casinos in the entire city of Ghent, as well as some other special trading venues, including intelligence trading, black market bounties, etc., which are enough to feed the people underground. ”

"Don't Norman and the Tudor family care?" Ren Xiaosu said curiously.

"Of course, but half of the business in the casino is owned by Tudor and Norman children," Chen Jingshu explained with a smile, "If nothing big happens, they will turn a blind eye." Of course, we also need to be on guard against them sending people to infiltrate other parts of the earth. ”

Chen An'an on the side said: "There is a big difference between surface people and underground people, people who live underground all year round usually have pale skin and have not been exposed to the sun, while people on the surface can be found as soon as they come in." No one of normal skin colors is allowed to go to the more secret underground space except for the Templar, unless led by a Templar. ”

Ren Xiaosu nodded, so the underground and the surface are actually a delicate balance now, they know very well that the underground people hate them, but they also know very well that this group of people can't afford to make any big waves at all.

When Ren Xiaosu and the others entered this black market like an underground factory, almost everyone in the entire black market suddenly turned their heads to look at them.

Their group of people is obviously from the surface, but it is rare to see hundreds of surface people in this underground world suddenly come down, and many stall owners looked at Ren Xiaosu and the others vigilantly, as if they were a little worried.

"Keep going, don't stop here, we'll scare them," Chen Jingshu said and continued to lead the way, and when the black market stallholders saw them leave, they resumed trading as if nothing had happened.

"Don't they know you?" Ren Xiaosu was curious, "You are also a member of the Templar." ”

"Templars never put their identities on their faces," Chen said, "and only the guardians of the various deep areas know who we are. ”

"In order to avoid encirclement and suppression?" asked Ren Xiaosu.

"Yes, there are a lot of people here, and it is more cost-effective to sell the identity of a Templar than to sell a hundred iron swords," Chen Jingshu explained.

The group continued to walk inside, and Ren Xiaosu even saw underground people living here in some places, but he only saw old people and children.

"The light and strong all work underground, men and women are the same," Chen Jingshu said: "People who live underground will definitely not survive without waste, and they will definitely not survive if they are lazy and lazy." So on the ground floor, you can see almost only old people and children. ”

"What kind of work are you doing down there?" asked Ren Xiaosu.

"All kinds of shady things," Chen Jingshu said, "such as melting broken silver into silver coins, such as casting iron tires for arrows, such as the handling of smuggled goods, and all kinds of contraband manufacturing workshops." ”

"This is a large black den," Ren Xiaosu sighed.

Chen Jingshu glanced at him and said: "Don't stand here and talk without backache, it's good that the underground people can live, what is forbidden or not." ”

The next moment, a man in a brown linen robe suddenly appeared in front of him, and the other party was waiting in the tunnel with a hood, as if he was waiting for Ren Xiaosu and them to arrive.

Chen Jingshu glanced at Ren Xiaosu: "Come with me, someone wants to see you." ”

The man who had hidden his identity turned to lead the way in front, not saying a word from beginning to end.

They zigzagged underground, descending deep underground through stairs, and the guards guarding the passages bowed to the man as they passed through some secret passages.

Obviously, the other party's status in the underground world is much higher than Chen Jingshu.

Turning a long dark road, the sound of several people talking suddenly came from the corner in front of me.

Ren Xiaosu, who was originally walking, suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he turned his head to look at Xiaomei who was frozen in place: "What's wrong?"

saw that Comrade Xiaomei didn't seem to hear what Ren Xiaosu said, and rushed forward in despair.

Ren Xiaosu was surprised: "Have you met an acquaintance?"

"Natsu!" Mego hurriedly shouted, "Is that you?"

The conversation around the corner in front of him suddenly calmed down, and Ren Xiaosu looked at Chen Jingshu: "Xia, who is it?"

"Xia Russell, Russell's descendant," Chen Jingshu said with a meaningful smile, "and at the same time, he is also the sweetheart of this Maygo wizard." ”

"So, you went to Yorkshire to help this girl find Mego, right?" Ren Xiaosu frowned and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier, and you made up strange lies." ”

"Originally, I was going to quietly stuff some money into his wizard tower, who knew that you would suddenly kill it," Chen Anan also rolled his eyes: "And we don't know who you are at all, okay, how can we tell you the truth?"

Ren Xiaosu was stunned: "Stuff money?!"

He immediately cried and laughed: "This Comrade Xiaomei is really a master of eating soft rice!"
