Chapter Twenty-Six: The Black Market Searches

"I've already asked people to inquire, if you don't mind, you can stay here first!" When it came to King Xuan's annihilation, Dongfang Xuanze was obviously in a bad mood, and after making arrangements, he was ready to get up and walk in the courtyard.

"His Royal Highness!" Chen Jintong muttered a little in her heart, her injuries have healed a lot in the past few days, and her appetite has improved, she chased her all the way out after returning to the Hou Mansion, and she hasn't had dinner yet! I don't think I'm a little hungry now.

"Anything else?" Dongfang Xuanze stared at her, his dark eyes were unfathomable.

Seeing him ask out so formally, Chen Jintong was slightly embarrassed, could it be that after being in this body for a long time, his mind became immature. "It's okay, I just want to have dinner," Chen Jintong lowered his head and said in a voice the size of a mosquito.

The depressed sadness was inexplicably interrupted, Dongfang Xuanze felt a lot less depressed in his heart, called the maid outside the house to listen to her, and went back to the room to rest.

For two days in a row, Chen Jintong was either in the hospital or wandered around the mixed streets, but fortunately, he was physically strong and recovered quickly. Dongfang Xuanze was righteous, and he patiently accompanied Chen Jintong to find most of the capital, but there was still no trace.

Early in the morning of the third day, Chen Jintong didn't see anyone when she got up, and only after asking the maid did she know that Dongfang Xuanze took someone to the black market last night.

When I arrived at that place, I saw that Dongfang was at the door, and I saw that I was waiting for her, and there was a special person guarding the door, and I couldn't enter without acquaintances.

Walking in with Jiuxing, there was no bustling appearance as she thought, but it was very quiet, and there were few people. Walking through a corridor, it was getting darker and darker, and there was a foul smell in the air, which made people very depressed, and Chen Jintong had a bad premonition.

Dongfang took her directly to a separate room, only then did he see Dongfang Xuanze dressed in black and dark, standing against the window, seeing her come in, he closed his eyes and sat down at the wooden table, and slowly poured her a cup of tea.

"His Royal Highness, are the Nine Stars here?" Chen Jintong was anxious, sat down and asked directly.

"Only Jiuxing is here, and Sixi'er was sold to Wangchun Tower by that tooth woman." Seeing that she was frizzy, Dongfang Xuanze didn't blame her, and her slender fingers took the teacup and sent it to her mouth.

"But what else is hidden?" Seeing him like this, Chen Jintong almost lost his temper, and after thinking about it, since Dongfang Xuanze had already come last night, there was no reason why it could be the kind of thing she saw now that it didn't matter to herself, so she asked out loud.

"This is the largest black market in the capital, the forces behind it are intricate, to save Jiuxing, you must win the people in the ring and spend money to take him away, otherwise you will be stuck with a dog skin plaster, which will annoy you." Dongfang Xuanze calmly analyzed her, Chen Jintong listened carefully, if she could rescue Jiuxing in this way, she didn't want to make a fuss again.

Someone knocked on the door, Dongfang opened the door, and saw a middle-aged man standing at the door, saluting Dongfang Xuanze, Dongfang Xuanze walked out with him, Chen Jintong looked at it, the person who came was not like an ordinary rat, but like a serious and capable person, Chen Jintong was a little strange, that person seemed to be very respectful to Dongfang Xuanze.

Dongfang didn't go out, but sat down cross-legged and poured himself a cup of tea. Chen Jintong asked him, "When will the ring start?" ”

Chen Jintong knows about this kind of black market. Someone sent slaves and many unknown people here, on the ring to compete, some dignitaries or gamblers while placing bets on the table, while watching, if they close their eyes, they will spend money to buy people to be thugs around her, she had guessed before that Ya Po will sell people to these places, but without power, she can't go into the interior to inquire.

"After dark, the ring depends on when there are more people coming, and it will open only when the people behind it are satisfied, and it will be before midnight at the latest." Dongfang didn't smile at her anymore, but his tone was still frivolous and not steady at all.

"Then I'll go find Sixi'er first," Chen Jintong drank the tea in the teacup like a donkey, and got up to go out.

Dongfang looked at her without a figure and sneered: "What you can think of my son-in-law can't imagine, you can stay here with peace of mind, today's ring may be opened early." ”

Sure enough, the ring didn't start late, and a lot of people gathered bustling around dinner time, and Dongfang Xuanze also came back.

The design here is more mysterious, the door is the corridor, the window is the ring, Chen Jintong has already looked around, in addition to the room where they are located, the window is also the window, surrounded by a ring, downstairs is the ring, there is a large open space next to the ring, it is for people to bet and watch, a bit similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome, although it is not magnificent, but in this era, it can also be said to be in the limelight.

Chen Jintong and Dongfang Xuanze stood by the window, fortunately, in order to facilitate her access to those places these days, she was showing people in men's clothes, and it was not abrupt to appear here.

However, the people in the ring have changed twice, but she still didn't see Jiuxing's figure, and when she saw another group of people changed, her palms were already wet. She saw it clearly, now the person left in the ring is a ruthless character, this person is extremely burly, extremely powerful, although he is not flexible, but he has an advantage in figure, and because he was collected weapons, everyone is bare-handed, others will not cause him much harm when he hits him, but he hits others but he vomits blood after a few hits.

At this time, the newly arrived slave was driven into the ring like livestock, and Chen Jintong saw a familiar figure, "Nine stars!" Before she had time to think about it, Chen Jintong raised her steps and walked downstairs, Dongfang Xuanze didn't say anything, and followed behind her.

When he got around the ring, Chen Jintong saw clearly that the game hadn't started yet, and Jiuxing's body was already scarred. "Before it started, why did Nine Stars become like this?" Chen Jintong turned his head and asked.

"It wasn't the first time he was hit, or he was injured while he was locked up, he's new here, and that's normal." As soon as Dongfang Xuanze finished saying this, the stage had already announced the start. There were six or seven people on the top, and at first it was an irregular fight, whoever fell first would be carried away, and only those who remained on the stage at the end could be bought, even if they were not bought, they could get special care here if they won the battle. Life here is like hell, except for yourself, all the people on the stage are enemies, and in order to live a better life, those who go up are sparing no effort.

Jiuxing is very smart, and he is not prepared to clash head-on with people, but constantly dodges and avoids slaves who do not distinguish between enemies and me, and tries to maintain his physical strength.

After a while, there were only three people left on the stage, Jiuxing, and the big man, and there was also a man with ruthless eyes and trembling steps.
