Chapter 17: The Black Market
Hearing the city lord mention his father, Jiang Chen was stunned and replied, "Yes! City Lord, I'm not a hero, I'm just a scavenger, just call me Jiang Chen. ”
Looking at Jiang Chen, the city lord said with a smile: "Ancient language, don't judge heroes by their origins, you have such ability at a young age, and it's rare to arrive, or come to my escort team!" ”
Hearing that the city lord invited Jiang Chen to join the guard, the fat man stabbed Jiang Chen a little excitedly, this is the city lord's henchman, although it is nothing in other places, but in this small dungeon, it can be regarded as a big man, even if the yellow steward sees it, he is also respectful.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said: "Thank you for the city lord's good intentions, it's just that the next person is used to being at ease, I'm afraid that it will cause trouble when I get to the escort team!" ”
Hearing Jiang Chen's refusal, the city lord was also stunned and then said, "That's it, you are exactly the same as your father!" ”
Hearing the city lord mention his father again, Jiang Chen asked unexpectedly, "Does the city lord know my father?" ”
"Hahaha...... It's not just acquaintances! When I was a child, the two of us fought a lot, but when we got older, we became estranged, and later went to the city to recruit your father and was drawn, alas! It's been six or seven years, right? ”
This dungeon is not big or small, it is all children to not so many twists and turns, everyone can almost play together, the identity is different, the life is different, and this is the innocence when there is no child.
"That! I don't know if there is any news of my father in the past few years, Lord Lord? ”
"Alas! At the beginning, the people who went with him could still send news, but then the ground was dangerous, and the people who went were almost dead, only that in the end your father went to the advance camp, and then there was no news, but I was afraid ......"
Jiang Chen heard the news of his father for the first time in seven years, although he didn't know whether he was alive or dead now, but it was always good that there was no news of death, and he secretly swore in his heart that one day he would personally go to the ground to pick up his father back.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen bowed to the city lord: "Thank you city lord for telling me this today, I wonder if the city lord can tell me that the ground where my father went?" ”
The city lord looked at Jiang Chen, who was bowing down in front of him, stretched out his hand and said: "These are not secret things, your mother also knows, I'm afraid that I am afraid that you will act impulsively, this ground is dangerous and abnormal, but it is not comparable to this underground, as for the city where your father went, it is Luancheng, this Luancheng is the suzerain's city that manages this area of tens of thousands of square kilometers, it is a city that is connected underground and above, and our small underground cities are also controlled by Naluan City." ”
Hearing the city lord tell you, Jiang Chen is thanking you this time!
"Alright, it's nothing, I'll go back first" After saying that, the city lord turned around and walked out of the mine with the rest of the guards.
"Alas! Xiao Chenzi, this ground is dangerous, don't be impulsive! ”
"Please rest assured, there is no need to be sure, I won't go to the ground!"
Hearing Jiang Chen say this, the sixth master didn't continue,
"Let's go! Now that it's over, let's go back too! You two have to practice diligently when you go back, don't be lazy. ”
"It's the sixth master!"
Seeing that everyone was gone, only Jiang Chen and Jiang Kun were left, the fat man couldn't hold it back any longer, and asked Jiang Chen: "Brother Chen, this city lord invited you to join the escort team, why did you refuse, this is a good thing, how majestic it is to enter the escort team!" ”
"So majestic, you want to get in, you're good to enter."
"Alas...... Brother Chen, don't go, listen to me, I didn't want to enter, I'm just curious! ”
"Curious, what's curious, this city lord just wants us to work for him for free!"
"That's right, just the two of us, it's not a good thing to go, and it's still used in his escort, alas! That's not right! Why did this city lord only invite you and not me just now! This looks down on people! ”
"If you dump your fat body, he'll invite you too."
"Hey...... No way! We all have to rely on my fat flesh to stop us from going south and north. ”
"By the way, Brother Chen, where are we going now?"
"Go to Jiu'er's house first, and then go to the black market when you're done, the thing I picked up last time, and the claws from the star beast, have to be dealt with."
Hehe, that relationship is good, alas...... Now my brother is also a cultivator, and I heard from the sixth master, this cultivation seems to be quite expensive! ”
"Alright, stop talking nonsense, let's go!"
The two of them walked out of the mine as they spoke.
went to Jiu'er's house, told me that the beast was taken away by the city lord, and promised the city lord that he would give Jiu'er compensation in the future, Jiu'er didn't say anything, after all, it had happened, and she was a weak woman and there was nothing she could do.
After cleaning up and saying a word to the family, he drove his hand-modified car out of the town and drove towards the black market.
It is said that it is a black market but it is not a dungeon, this was originally established by a nearby dungeon to exchange materials with each other, and later more people participated, so they moved to an abandoned dungeon, and was slowly replaced by the merchant alliance here, forming the current black market.
These merchant alliances have some backgrounds, collecting all the mess they pick up for these scavengers, and selling weapons and equipment, and even energy weapons, but these are generally bought by these small city owners, after all, ordinary scavengers or adventurers don't have the financial resources.
The two of them galloped all the way, and they ran for several days to get to the black market, and when they were about to arrive at the black market, they felt that something was wrong, this number of people was a bit excessive, and there were still a large number of people with weapons on duty on the edge of the black market.
"Brother Chen, what's the situation, is it a holiday? Why so many people? ”
"I don't know, don't worry about it yet, go in and dispose of the things first, I'm looking for someone to ask."
The two of them disposed of all the electronic components and equipment they had picked up according to the old rules, and came to a weapons workshop.
"Uncle Liu, you're in the store!" This Uncle Liu is the owner of this workshop and a foundry.
"You two boys, how long has it been since you came to me, and you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, saying if the weapon is broken again?"
"Hey, hey, hey...... Uncle Liu said this, who doesn't know your craftsmanship in this black market, how can the weapons you cast be broken! It's just a gap, just fix it. ”
"You fat boy still listens so much, okay take it!"
The two handed over the weapon to Uncle Liu, and it didn't take long for them to return it to the two of them.
"Thank you, fifty energy blocks."
"Hey...... Uncle Liu, you see that you are out of sight, we have a big business coming to you this time. ”
Uncle Liu glanced at the two of them and said, "It's a big deal for the two of you to buckle the rope, so you have to talk about it." ”
At this time, Jiang Chen handed the claws chopped off from the star beast to Uncle Liu.
Seeing the beast claws handed over by Jiang Chen, Uncle Liu's face turned straight, he glanced at the two of them and said, "Yes!" Do you know what kind of claw this is? ”
"Star Beast's Claws!" Jiang Chen replied.
"You killed?"
"Of course, it took a lot of effort for us to get it."
Looking at the two of them doesn't look like they are panicking, then it's not something that comes from the wrong way.
After a moment of silence, he said: "Since you can know that this is the claw of the star beast, then you should also know the cultivator, this star beast body has been strengthened by star energy, and it is a good casting material, but it's a pity, it's a pity, my craftsmanship is not good and I can't fuse it perfectly!" ”
"Ahh Uncle Liu, can't you cast it? ”
"It's not that I can't cast, it's that I can't give full play to the characteristics of this material, it seems that I can't take your big order!"
Hearing Uncle Liu say this, the fat man was a little anxious, Uncle Liu is the best caster in this dungeon, if he can't cast, then no one else can cast!
"Uncle Liu, even if you cast, you can do whatever you want, if this claw can't be cast, it will have no effect except for changing energy blocks."
Hearing Jiang Chen say this, Uncle Liu was no longer polite, "Okay! Then I'll get it in two days. ”
"By the way, Uncle Liu, what's going on with this black market lately? How the people who were out there are all back! ”
"Alas, don't mention it, I heard that a big man knocked down the beast pit, and the fierce beasts that came out of the beast pit scattered and fled, and many scavengers who went out recently have been killed, and this dungeon doesn't seem to be peaceful!"
