Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Black Market of Haowu Academy
The four of them trotted all the way to a dark street, where people were all dressed in black robes or wearing masks. Su Mo also took out the mask from the storage ring and distributed it to several people.
"In fact, Haowu Academy is not really incapable of private fighting, and this black market is the exception. So it's best not to let anyone else know who you really are!The origin of this area is due to an accident in the small world at that time, and a student was gifted with a rare demonic talent. But I don't know why I went crazy when I cultivated in this area, and finally blew myself up. The energy shattered a portion of the barrier, making it impossible for the academy hierarchy to monitor the area. And all the outsiders gathered here, and the high-level repeatedly sent people to clean it up, but in the end it was all in vain......"
When the three of them heard this, their faces couldn't help but change greatly. Self-destructing! Go mad! What kind of cultivation does it take to shatter the enchantment? Why can't the academy clean up the area?
"So we're here?"
Lin Feng asked slowly.
"Senior Brother Lin Ce just said that he wanted to read books outside the Library Pavilion, and there are them here, and Haowu Academy is the only one! The black market is to provide everything that is obtained from the outside world, illegally obtained or legally obtained. Some people even fight for their lives for an item!"
After speaking, Su Mo beckoned to the three of them.
"Let's go inside, and you'll see it later. ”
The four of them walked slowly into the depths of the street, where there was no sunlight at all. It was dark, lit only by candles on or under the wall. The streets are narrow, and there are only two pedestrians in a row, as the vendors already occupy a large area.
And the things on the stalls are also varied! animal bones, animal teeth. There are even fierce beasts with bloody cores, better grade weapons, armor, and even remnants of exercises......
"This is the epitome of the chaotic area of the outside world, where most outsiders lick blood and exchange their lives for money. As long as there is a chance to pass the entry qualification of Haowu College after screening. Then they will sell some items here in exchange for the source of life - points!"
Su Mo led the three of them to talk as they walked, and Lin Ce didn't interrupt her.
"Many students in the academy have suffered here, and female students have been ...... alone because of their exposed identities In the end, after the high-level of the academy fought with the people's congress here, it was decided that as long as there was no black market, the academy would not care about their affairs. The college also stipulates that students are no longer allowed to enter the black market. Over time, there is only one rule here, and that is - the law of the jungle!"
"It's useless to have more points here, you need to have a life flower. If you don't have high strength, don't show your wealth, otherwise you won't know how to die. The things here are rare things that are not found in the small world, and these people don't know what ruins to explore, or kill people to steal goods. High-level martial arts, materials and items needed for sub-professions, herbs, elixirs...... There's everything. Now, you've got the place you want to find books!"
Su Mo stopped in front of a closed shop, then stepped forward and knocked on the door, pushed open the door, and walked in with Lin Ce and the others.
But there was a mystery hidden inside, and the size of the space made Lin Ce dumbfounded. His old ancestor on the bright face is really a bit of a turtle, like a primary school student. Isn't it enough to know the world...... Sure enough, Tianhai City is really a poor country!
Lin Feng and Lin Zhanhai were also shocked by everything in front of them.
"What are you looking for here......
An old voice came from behind the counter, and it was a little scary to suddenly have such a voice in this unbrowsed bookstore.
"Grandma Zhang Huai! It's me Su Mo! I'm coming to see you, with a few friends!"
As soon as he heard Su Mo's name, the tone in which the old man spoke was obviously no longer so eerie and terrifying. Eased a bit.
"Oh~ It's Su girl, come on, let grandma see if you have lost weight! I haven't come to see me for so long, an old woman, I thought you forgot about me!"
Hearing this, Su Mo jumped very obediently and ran to the back of the counter. Lin Ce and the three of them also followed slowly.
It turned out that behind the half-height counter, there was an old lady with gray hair resting on the chaise longue, but she looked very weak, skinny, and her skin was abnormally grayish.
Su Mo came to the old lady, and the old lady slowly sat up. Stroking Su Mo's hand, he looked at the former with loving eyes.
"The girl is good, her figure is still so good, she is convex and backward, and her strength has improved!"
Hearing this, Su Mo's face suddenly turned red, and he whispered.
"Grandma Zhang, you're joking with Su Mo again, there are still people here. ”
Grandma Zhang looked at the three people behind Su Mo, her eyes stayed on Lin Ce for a long time, and then she said to Su Mo.
"Su girl, now I know that I am shy, it wasn't like this before, did I have a boyfriend~ the leader in the back!"
As soon as these words came out, Su Mo's face turned even redder, and he said incoherently.
"Grandma! No, that's a junior! We've only known each other for a few days, and I don't have a boyfriend! And I don't know him very well, even if I do, I can't do it, I'm a senior sister...... Oops, what am I talking about......"
Grandma Zhang Huai's smile on Su Mo's face was even more victorious when she saw this.
"Okay, don't tease you, if you still don't come to see grandma for a long time, I'm afraid you won't be able to see you in the future, people are so fragile......"
Zhang Huai suddenly became a little sad as he spoke.
"Don't talk nonsense, grandma will be fine, definitely not! Grandma will not say such foolish things in the future! I will definitely find a way!"
Su Mo said this sentence very firmly, hearing this, Zhang Huai's heart was inexplicably warm, he had no children and no daughters in his life. Since coming to the black market of the academy to meet Su Mo, the two have chatted very well, and over time they have become friends who have forgotten their years.
Zhang Huai's face showed a look of relief, but he knew in his heart that he was afraid that his time was running out......
"Su girl, it's not such unpleasant, let's talk about it. What are you looking for when you come to grandma?"
Su Mo nodded, wiped the corners of his reddish eyes and said.
"It's my junior Lin Ce who wants to find some books that the academy doesn't have, and he happened to run into me, so he brought them over......"
Zhang Huai nodded and motioned for Su Mo to sit aside. His gaze turned to Lin Ce and said.
"Young man, these books are my life savings from the old woman. Although there are not many, there are more than 500 books, all of which are brought from the outside world, so you don't need to know the source. Of these, three hundred and twenty-one are complete books related to martial arts or sub-occupations, while the remaining one hundred and seventy-nine are fragments!
At this time, Zhang Huai said the rules of the store very seriously, and Su Mo was a little embarrassed on the side. She didn't expect that she had already said that Lin Ce was her friend, and Grandma Zhang had already to follow the rules......
Lin Ce observed Zhang Huai and nodded to make his own answer.
"Well, old woman, the questions I ask are all person-specific, so everyone is different. But since you are Su Yatou's friend, I won't be difficult for you! Ordinary people have to answer three questions before they can watch. But I'm going to ask two questions today, and you can watch them as long as you answer them!"
Hearing this, Lin Ce frowned a little, because he knew that when Zhang Huai said this, things were not so simple. After all, the so-called old lady in front of her has reached the realm of transforming into a god in the information display of the eye of scrutiny!
But there is no way, now that he is here, he has also become a little curious about the books here, after all, maybe there is some wonderful receipt! Then he nodded at Zhang Huai and said.
"Grandma Zhang, but it doesn't matter, as long as I know it, I will answer it all!"
"Okay! Then the first question! Just now I observed that you should have used some secret method to hide your true cultivation box age! Ordinary people see that you only have ten levels of cultivation in the innate realm, and you are in your twenties. But old woman, I found that you have a true qi in you, which does not match your cultivation level. Please answer what is your true cultivation and age?"
As soon as these words came out, Su Mo was the first to be shocked! She instantly felt that she had been deceived, it turned out that Grandma Zhang Huai had asked this question for her? !
And Lin Feng and Lin Zhanhai had already heard this and started to urge their true qi on the side, they knew that their grandfather seemed to have been exposed, which showed that this old woman might not be a good stubble!
But at this time, Lin Ce smiled, and sure enough, he ran into a hard stubble this time. But he can't do it for the cultivation of the Divine Realm, even if he opens the body of the Divine Dragon, it is a little suspenseful......
In fact, it is nothing to say that he cultivates, and there should be no big problem with Su Mo here. Forget it, just say it!
"Grandma Zhang Huai's vision is really sharp, yes, I am not a ten-fold cultivator in the innate realm, and I am not more than twenty years old!"
Hearing Lin Ce's admission, Su Mo's heart felt an inexplicable pain......
