…… Sigh dividing line...... That dragged on for a whole day...... I can only make up for it after this busy time......

I lost.

There really are no small villages ahead.

It's the Grand Bazaar!

Turning around the seemingly deserted hill, the hustle and bustle in front of me made me suspect that I had come to a paradise.

"What is this place?" I grabbed a passerby and asked.

"Here, it's called Tianya Village." Passers-by.

"Look, it's a small village after all." I said to Ling Zexu.

But why is this small village so prosperous?

"What is this special day? Why so many people? "I pulled the passerby back.

"It's not a special day, there are so many people here every day." Passers-by.

"This is a problem." I said to Ling Zexu, "There are a lot of people here, and if the prisoners are mixed in the crowd, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find." ”

"Not necessarily." Ling Zexu said, "There must be a special reason why a village like this in a ravine can be so prosperous - in other words, the people who come to the village should have a special purpose, although there are many people, the activities of prisoners here may be very eye-catching." ”

"Is there any rare earth specialty in this village?" I pulled the passerby back again.

"Still not letting people go?" The passer-by said angrily, "Okay, I know what you want to ask - there is indeed a local specialty in this village, called the spirit seeking worm, so a worm market has been formed, and everyone comes here to buy worms, a good spirit seeking worm can be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver." ”

"What is the power of this soul seeker worm to be so popular?" I wondered.

"The ability of the spirit seeker insect is actually similar to that of a dog." Passer-by, "You ask the Spirit Seeker to recognize something, and after it does, it can track down the same kind of thing." However, the spirit seeker is different from a dog, it can only recognize one thing in its life. ”

"Isn't that as good as a dog?" I said.

"It's not the same purpose." Passerby, "Spirit insects are used to find minerals, medicinal materials, and water sources...... And it's not chasing smells, so it's not afraid of being covered up by other smells, and it's not wrong to look for it even when it's raining, and dogs can't do that. ”

"And this goodie." I was pleasantly surprised, "Then I'll have to buy a few to keep home and keep them in handy, maybe when they will come in handy." ”

"It's not as simple as you think." Passers-by said, "This soul seeker recognizes things, not by itself, nor by you who let it recognize things, but by insect keepers." So, you have to take what you want it to recognize and go to the village to find insect farming. ”

"No wonder business is booming here." I said clearly, "Dare is an exclusive deal, and if there is no insect keeper, the spirit seeker will become a fart seeker, and there is no use for fart." ”

"It's hard to say." Passers-by shook their heads, "I'm leaving, don't pull it." ”

"No, no, no." I nodded vigorously.

"Don't pull me anymore." The passerby turned his head sharply, "I turned my face." ”

"Walk slowly, walk slowly." I smiled.

Passers-by faded away.

"The people who come to this village to buy bugs are going to hunt for treasures, and they will definitely not carry large quantities of goods with them." Ling Zexu analyzed, "Those prisoners are carrying dart goods, if they have been active here, they must be very eye-catching, you and I will act separately and ask around to see if there are any clues." ”

"Okay, in half an hour, let's meet here." I nodded.

This village is actually not big, due to the large number of outsiders, a few large grass huts have been added at the entrance of the village to receive guests, which is the so-called insect market.

Ling Zexu went to the village to inquire, and I was in charge of investigating the market.

Walking around the market, I found that in addition to the soul seeking insects, there are also all kinds of strange little insects for sale here, some of which can be used in medicine, some of which have strange appearances, and some of which have beautiful voices...... The end is dazzling.

Therefore, the spirit insect is just a signboard, if the variety of goods is not rich, and the after-sales service is not thoughtful, I am afraid it will not be able to make such a big market.

Furthermore......

I inquired carefully, and although there were many people coming and going to the market, either alone or in groups, as Ling Zexu expected, there were no people carrying large quantities of goods.

Not a single one.

It seems that there is nothing to be gained on my side.

What about Ling Zexu's side?

Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and I returned to the agreed place.

Ling Zexu hadn't appeared yet.

I leaned under a large tree and yawned long.

From the time I left the execution ground to the present, a whole day and a night have passed, during which it is either a fire or a trace, and I am as busy as a donkey, and now it is getting dark again, and I haven't even dozed off.

At this moment, I relaxed, I didn't feel groggy, and I actually fell asleep......

I woke up!

Fortunately, the sky has not changed, and the crowd is still bustling.

Looks like I just took a nap.

Why hasn't Ling Zexu come back?

Forget it, don't wait, how big can this village be? I'll go straight to him.

Contrary to the bustle around the market, the village is quiet, with closed doors, and there are no such scenes as children playing, old men smoking (no driving), village women doing laundry, and chickens and dogs barking.

It's understandable.

Like the village where I used to live, there was no need to close the door at all, there were villagers who came and went, and there was nothing to steal.

It's different here, with the market, it's inevitable that there are a lot of people, and thieves often come uninvited; What's more, those insects are sold at an expensive price, and the people in the village should have accumulated a lot of silver, so how can they be steadfast if the door is not closed tightly.

But in this way, it is not easy for me to ask for directions, and I have to knock on the door.

Patting the door of a stranger's house, I was a little guilty in my heart.

Bump knock.

"Excuse me, anyone?" After a few knocks on the door, I shouted.

"Who?" An old man's voice came from behind the door.

"I'm here to buy bugs." I said.

"Buy bugs and go to the market." The old man said coldly.

"I know." "However, a friend of mine came to visit the village just now, and no one has returned, so I came to see him." ”

"No one is allowed to visit the village." The old man said, "It is impossible for your friend to enter any house, and if there is no one in the village, he will either go out from the mountain road at the edge of the village, or walk away along the river." ”

"Why aren't people allowed to visit?" I asked curiously.

"You're here to buy bugs, and you have to ask this kind of question?" The old man snorted coldly.

When he said that, I understood.

No matter what industry, if there is a threshold, the most afraid is that your own unique secret method will be stolen and learned, and the industry of raising insects is naturally no exception.

I'm afraid that every family here is raising insects, so that it can supply such a large market.

In other words, every household has secrets, and it is easy not to let people in.

But in this way, where did Ling Zexu go?

I stood on a high place, looked around, and suddenly my scalp tingled—I saw that although the area of the village was not large, the houses were densely packed, about two or three hundred households.

If you shoot the door door-to-door, you have to shoot the Year of the Monkey?
