Chapter 14: The Grey Market

As soon as the sky was gray, Jiang Qin set off. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info Although the place he's going to go this time is not as dangerous as Momiji Mountain, it's not much better, I heard that it's a place where people eat people, and that's the underground trading place in Momiji Town-Gray Market.

He'd heard about such a place for a long time, but he hadn't seen it because he had been taking on tasks and was worried about safety.

It's different now, Shen Fei doesn't know what he got in his body, so that he is always stuck in his throat, and he can't concentrate on anything. For this reason, he went to the bookstore again, but he didn't find anything useful, he could only try to see if he could find a solution in this gray market, or at least know what Shen Fei had put into his body.

The origin of the gray market is said to be that some people get the treasure for some shady reasons, they can't use it, and they want to sell it or exchange it for what they can use, but they will definitely be known by others if they release it on the surface.

So they thought of a way to hold a party, where everyone covered their faces, did not leak their identities, and talked directly to the seller about the treasures they liked, and whether they succeeded or not saw themselves.

At first, the people who attended this kind of gathering were some Jiangyang thieves or extremely vicious people, and most of the treasures they took out were some stolen goods. But people can distinguish between good and bad, but treasures can not be distinguished. In other people, you may help and abuse, and in your hands, you may be chivalrous and righteous, the key depends on how people use it.

Since the treasures that everyone took out were quickly taken off, some of the treasures that came from the bright road wanted to find the next family and also participated, so the people who participated in the party later came from all walks of life, and the treasures were also varied and all-encompassing. Some of them may seem treasured to you, but they may be worthless to others.

The scale is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more people are participating, and some rules are slowly formed, for example, you can't tell other people's identities, which is the most taboo in the gray market. Even if you know who he is, you can't tell him in public. After all, no one wants others to know who their name is, or what treasures they have bought. Everyone knows the truth of the sin of conceiving Bi. If you break this rule in the gray market of Momiji Town, you will be hunted down by everyone.

The other is that you can't fight in the gray market. Because they are all people with heavy treasures, it is inevitable that there will be some bodyguards, or the owner of the treasure is a master himself, and if they are allowed to fight at will, it will affect other people's transactions, or it will evolve into a large-scale group fight. That's what no one wants to see, that's why we made this rule.

With these two regulations, although the situation is still full of problems, it is much better than killing people and looting treasures at every turn at the beginning. In addition, try not to do things that are easy to cause misunderstanding in the gray market, such as tailgating or spying, which can easily make others think that you have some bad intentions.

Jiang Qin kept thinking about the taboos of the gray market in his mind, which he had exchanged for a full five ingots of silver from a captain.

That captain had been to the Grey Market once, and according to him, there were more masters in the Grey Market than in the entire Red Leaf Town! He, the captain of the innate realm, can only be said to have barely stepped into the ranks of masters in the gray market, and he can only protect himself. So he didn't dare to stay any longer, and came back immediately after replacing a spear that he didn't need.

This gray market is not in Red Leaf Town, but it is not very far away, otherwise Jiang Qin should consider whether he can go. Because he now belongs to Red Leaf Town, if he leaves Red Leaf Town too far without permission, he will be considered a defector, and he will be hunted down by the Yanxian Gang and even the Yan Sect.

So at the beginning, Jiang Qin put the escape plan at the end, and he would not take this path until he was completely hopeless, because this was basically the same as suicide. Come to think of it, he ran a few miles with great effort, but others might catch up without even having a stick of incense. There is not much chance of running away at all, because someone else will fly!

After calming down, Jiang Qin walked behind a big tree, took down the package on his back, and took out a gray robe from it, as well as a hat and a large piece of tulle.

Jiang Qin directly covered the robe outside, which made him look a little stronger, and then split the tulle in two, half of which made a curtain around the hat, and the other half covered his face. In this way, no one will see his appearance even if the wind blows.

After doing all this, Jiang Qin walked out from behind the tree. I saw that not an inch of skin on his body was leaking, his bag was tight, and his body was stronger than before, so even the people who were most familiar with him couldn't recognize him.

After confirming that no one would recognize him, Jiang Qin continued to walk towards the gray market.

Jiang Qin saw from a distance that there was a group of houses in front of him, these houses were not tall at all, and they were distributed in a disorderly manner, one in the east and one in the west. It can only be barely seen that the houses are built around a huge house. It is said to be a house because it is as tall as the other houses around it, but it is more than ten times larger. This makes the house look weird and oppressive.

Finally, Jiang Qin stepped into the scope of the gray market, which also made him breathe a sigh of relief, at least now he was safe. He was worried about being ambushed by someone else on the road just now, which happened almost every time the gray market opened. It seems that either he was lucky, or the ambushers saw through at a glance that he didn't have much oil and water, so they let him pass.

After calming down, Jiang Qin walked to the nearest room. The house was made entirely of wooden planks, and it looked old, and the walls were moth-eaten with insect eyes, and the owner of the house had no intention of repairing it.

After entering the house, it was another scene, only to see four white jade pillars standing in all directions, on which some birds, insects and fish were painted with gold lacquer, each lifelike, looking magnificent; There are some poems or some landscape paintings hanging on the walls, which looks elegant and noble. In the center of the room is a set of mahogany tables and chairs, on which are placed teapots and pen, ink, paper and inkstones. A middle-aged man was sitting there, picking up a teacup with one hand and sniffing it, with a look of intoxication.

"The owner of this house is probably a layman, who wants to show both wealth and elegance, but he turns out to be nondescript." Jiang Qin looked at the man and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

After seeing Jiang Qin come in, the middle-aged man just opened his eyes slightly and glanced at him, then put the teacup to his mouth, and tasted the tea by himself, not paying attention to Jiang Qin at all.

"Excuse me, may I ask here..."Jiang Qin saw that the man didn't pay attention to what he meant, so he had to speak first. It's just that his voice is not the same as usual, and it sounds a little hoarse, which he deliberately pretended.

"Books, cheats, exercises." The middle-aged man said with his eyes closed.

"It seems to be the same place as the bookstore, and I'm really lucky, I found the right place as soon as I came. But there's not even a bookshelf here, where are those books or cheats? Jiang Qin thought to himself.

Seeing that the man still didn't intend to pay attention to him, Jiang Qin was not annoyed, walked straight to the chair opposite the man and sat down, and said, "What about the price?" ā€

"The content of the martial artist collects gold, silver or spirit stones, and the content of cultivators and body practitioners receives spirit stones or cherished materials and medicinal materials." The man finally opened his eyes and said.

The spirit stone Jiang Qin knew, it was something that could only be used by cultivators or body practitioners, it was a stone that contained the vitality of heaven and earth, and it was used as currency by the two, and its effect was similar to that of gold and silver. According to the amount of spiritual energy contained, it is divided into low-level spirit stones, middle-level spirit stones, high-grade spirit stones, and top-grade spirit stones. Of course, you can also absorb the vitality inside and use it for cultivation.

Jiang Qin had never seen that kind of thing, so naturally it couldn't be there, but fortunately, he exchanged all his savings for silver tickets and brought them with him.

"I want to be able to cultivate to the innate realm of martial arts secrets." Jiang Qin said.

This is what he desperately wants to get at the moment, these things are not absent in Red Leaf Town, it's just that those things are not outrageously expensive, he can't afford them, it's just some rotten martial arts cheats, and there is no future for cultivation at all. That's why he came to the Grey Market.

"This is the list and price of martial arts cheats, tell me what you like." After the man finished speaking, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin took the piece of paper and looked at it, there were more than a hundred kinds of martial arts cheats on it, which surpassed the bookstore in Red Leaf Town in terms of quantity alone. Jiang Qin took a closer look at the name of the cheats and found that Red Leaf Town had it here, but there was something here, but Red Leaf Town did not.

"Looks like this gray market is a bit of a doorway." Jiang Qin thought in his heart.

But then he wasn't in the mood to sigh, because the price of the same kind of martial arts cheats here was a full third more expensive than that of Red Leaf Town! In Red Leaf Town, he originally had a few options to choose from, but here he basically didn't have them, and only one or two of the worst ones remained.

"It's so dark! It seems that you have to think of a way from Red Leaf Town, but you can't do it first, so you can only wait first, and wait until you have saved enough money to buy cheats. Jiang Qin's idea is that he would rather lack than abuse, he doesn't want to put any effort into a garbage martial arts, he is already not qualified, and if he picks another garbage martial arts, it is estimated that he will be scrapped in this life.

As for asking Shen Fei for help, Jiang Qin hadn't even thought about it. It was decided that Jiang Qin would not trust Shen Fei after the events of that day, and similarly, Shen Fei would not believe Jiang Qin. It's just that Jiang Qin is too weak and has to give in.

"Well, these cheats are very good, I wonder if there are other cheats?" Jiang Qin said.

Hearing this, the man looked at Jiang Qin carefully, and after a long while, he took out another piece of paper from his sleeve, but this paper was obviously much smaller, and it seemed that the paper was much more expensive.

Jiang Qin took the paper again and looked at it, but he gasped after just looking at it, because the name of the martial arts written on it was so famous that it made him doubt that this seemingly weird shop could be taken out.
