Chapter 33: The Black Market
"Buy big and buy small, buy and leave!"
"Come and see, the magic weapons from the hands of the masters of all parties, all of them are superb!"
Walking on the street, the sound of noise is endless.
Early this morning, he had heard that there was a black market area in this Wudan City that was not under the jurisdiction of the three major families.
Although this black market is mixed, and any inferior counterfeits can be encountered, it is undeniable that there may really be some genuine treasures.
And Dongfang Shuo has just drawn 8,000 gold coins from the system, and he is worried that he has nowhere to spend it.
So, he came to this black market, intending to try his luck.
However, when he stopped and looked inside, Dongfang Shuo really didn't see anything that caught his attention.
On the contrary, it was those vicious-looking people who made Dongfang Shuo shuo.
"Slow down, boy. ”
Suddenly, a small servant suddenly stepped forward and blocked Dongfang Shuo's way.
"Any advice?"
Dongfang Shuo asked.
But this little guy suddenly showed an exaggerated expression of surprise, and kept looking at Dongfang Shuo.
Seeing this, Dongfang Shuo was interested, and he held his hands on his chest to see what tricks this guy wanted to play.
"I was amazed when I saw your back just now, but now when I look at it from the front, it is really extraordinary. The little guy opened his mouth and said, "This son, oh no, this lord, you have this almost heavenly qualification, if you don't have a set of martial arts passed down from ancient times, then it is really a tyrannical thing!"
"Ancient martial arts?"
Dongfang Shuo raised his eyebrows.
It is said that there are treasures in this black market, but is there really one?
As soon as he saw Dongfang Shuo's moved, the little guy immediately pointed to a way: "This lord, please come with me." ”
Dongfang Shuo thought that he had nothing to do anyway, so he followed.
After walking a few steps, he was led by the little guy to a stall that was not too big or small.
The stalls here are one after another, and if you look at them alone, there is nothing eye-catching about this stall in the slightest.
"Ah, your honorable guest!"
At this time, the middle-aged man in front of the stall, who was originally dozing, noticed that someone was approaching, so he opened his eyes, and when he saw Dongfang Shuo, he immediately screamed.
Recognizable?
Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned.
"But your honorable guest, although you have a great talent, I feel a hint of something strange from your breath, presumably you must not have cultivated any superior martial arts, right?" the middle-aged man said again.
It doesn't seem to be recognized.
Dongfang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then according to you, what is a superior martial arts?" Dongfang Shuo asked.
The middle-aged man picked up a martial art with a yellow book from the stall on the ground: "This martial arts is a martial art that the True Dragon Emperor in ancient times comprehended the ultimate meaning of heaven and earth, and it took more than a hundred years to forge it. It's just that the years have been too long, and when it came to my hands, there were only fragments left, and I asked a master from outside the world to sort it out, and finally reluctantly salvaged the result, which is the eight-rank martial arts of the foundation building period in my hand, "Shura Great Divine Fist"!"
As he introduced, some people gradually began to gather around.
"Shura Great Divine Fist?"
Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned, and wanted to reach out to take it.
But the middle-aged man's eyes were quick, he dodged Dongfang Shou's hand and said: "This martial arts has been inherited for thousands of years, and it has the essence of ancient martial arts, so it should be priceless. But I see that you have a very good relationship with this martial arts, so I will accept you two thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight gold coins, and then transfer this treasure to you. ”
Is it still on point?
Such a good martial art, as long as it is less than three thousand gold coins, what about deceiving ghosts?
Dongfang Shuo squatted down and picked up a martial arts on the stall.
On the cover of martial arts, it is written "The Great Shift of Qiankun", and the foundation period of seven grades of martial arts.
But at the same time, through the melting pot, he also learned the true face of the seven-rank martial arts in this foundation building period.
""Transference", a martial art in the fetal period. He spoke.
As soon as the words fell, the crowd of onlookers was a burst of discussion.
And the smile on the middle-aged man's face froze.
picked up another copy of "Gloomy Ecstasy Palm", the eight-grade martial arts of the immortal root period.
""Cinnabar Palm", the second grade martial arts in the fetal period. ”
He continued.
The crowd chattered and laughed.
The corners of the middle-aged man's mouth twitched twice, and then he stared fiercely at the little guy who brought this plague god.
At this moment, Dongfang Shuo picked up another book.
"As for this ......," he began.
"Enough!"
But before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man threw the martial arts in his hand on the ground, "You kid can't afford it, just say you can't afford it, what are you still sour here, I think you're just a short-sighted poor boy, do you think you can prove that I'm a fake just by a few words from you, what do you think you are?"
Dongfang Shuo smiled.
"What you put out on the stall is just some low-grade martial arts with a cover, am I wrong?"
Dongfang Shuo raised his eyebrows, "I also advise you, it's better to do less business without virtue." ”
At this time, quite a few people had gathered around.
They talked a lot and kept accusing.
"You kid, I think you just can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, what do you know?" the middle-aged man suddenly became angry.
Dongfang Shuo shook his head and sighed, feeling that it was useless to say more, so he turned around and was about to leave.
"Oh my God, isn't he Dongfang Shuo?"
Suddenly, a voice came from nowhere, pointing out Dongfang Shuo.
"That's right, he is Dongfang Shuo, I saw him before Sun Mansion a few days ago!"
Then, when someone chimed in, the audience boiled for a while.
Dongfang Shuo's visit on the first day of Qingzhou naturally shocked and excited everyone.
Seeing Dongfang Shuo with their own eyes, that is a great thing for them!
At this time, the people around quickly gathered, and everyone wanted to see Dongfang Shuo's honor with their own eyes.
In the blink of an eye, this place was surrounded by three circles inside and three circles outside.
Dongfang Shuo is also very helpless, and he can't slip away if he wants to.
"Are you the Lord of the East?!"
Suddenly, the middle-aged man behind him suddenly asked.
Listening to this voice, it is obviously much softer than just now, and it is full of respect.
Although he was quite surprised, Dongfang Shuo still turned to look.
But when he turned around, he found that the middle-aged man and several servants under him were all kneeling on the ground.
"Just now, we are powerless, and I ask Lord Dongfang to forgive me, and we promise that we will not do this kind of deceptive act from now on!" the middle-aged man promised with an oath.
Dongfang Shuo was stunned: "If you don't do it, you won't do it, what are you doing on your knees, get up quickly!"
"Five years ago, there was a group of thieves in my hometown who brought disaster to the people in the township, thanks to the righteous action of Lord Dongfang to exterminate that nest of thieves, so I was able to wait for the township to be safe!" The middle-aged man said, "I couldn't see Lord Dongfang back then, but today I am here to thank Lord Dongfang for his great kindness!"
As he spoke, the middle-aged man took a few little guys to kowtow to Dongfang Shuo to thank him.
Dongfang Shuo also looked confused.
"My hometown is the same, I was almost attacked by demon beasts, but fortunately, Lord Dongfang arrived in time with the disciples of the Heaven Dou Sect, and I saved the day!"
"And my hometown also experienced a drought, and it was the Dongfang Lord who led people to cast a spell to save the disaster from rain!"
"Yes, and my hometown......"
For a while, people of all sizes around stood up to explain the situation.
This made Dongfang Shuo a little confused.
Dongfang Shuo, this guy, has done so many good people and good deeds?
But he even begged for rain, could it be that he was a part-time god?
Dongfang Shuo thought so in his heart.
Although I was a little confused, I could only accept the gratitude of these people in silence.
At the same time, he also felt the honor that this status brought him.
Even if it's just by announcing the name, it can make people change their ways, can it not be exciting?
Bang Bang Bang!
Suddenly, a series of clapping voices came from nowhere.
"Hahaha, it is worthy of being the first day of Qingzhou proud of Dongfang Shuo, not only talented, but also willing to help others, it is really a model for us to learn!" After the applause, a man in his thirties walked in from outside the crowd and came to Dongfang Shuo.
Looking at this person, Dongfang Shuo looked puzzled, he didn't recognize it.
"Under Ouyang Zhi, he is currently the city lord of Wudan City. "I love you when I speak, and the man bowed to Dongfangshuo.
And Dongfang Shuo returned the salute, but he was full of doubts in his heart.
It's strange that this city lord would be mixed in the black market.
"You must be very strange, why did I, a city lord, come to the black market, right?" asked Ouyang Zhi.
Dongfang Shuo was obviously stunned.
This guy can read minds?
"Actually, the best teahouse in my Wudan City is open in this black market. ”
When Ouyang Zhi said this, he asked again, "Speaking of which, I wonder if Mr. Dongfang can enjoy the light and go with me?"
Dongfang Shuo thought about it for a moment.
Since you want to mingle in this world, it's not a bad thing to know more friends with status.
"It's fine. ”
So he gladly agreed.
And with Ouyang Zhi opening the way for him, Dongfang Shuo also walked out of the crowd very smoothly.
Along the way, the two finally came to the outside of a teahouse made of pure mahogany.
Standing here, you can smell the aroma of tea wafting from inside.
"Although this teahouse is located in the black market, it is a rare clear stream, Mr. Dongfang, please. ”
Ouyang Zhi turned around and said.
Dongfang Shuo nodded, and prepared to leave for it.
"Quick, let's go!"
Suddenly, a voice not far away came into Dongfang Shuo's ears and caught his attention.
He turned his head to see two strong men carrying snakeskin bags, hurrying to a small alley next to the teahouse.
"That's?"
Dongfang Shuo, who couldn't tell what was in the bag, immediately sensed that something was wrong when he caught a glimpse of a necklace peeking out of the mouth of the bag.
That necklace is Xiao Huo's.
"What's wrong?"
Ouyang Zhi suddenly asked.
Dongfang Shuo shook his head: "It's okay." ”
Afterwards, the two walked into the teahouse together.
