Chu Jing and his entourage spent a lot of money on the underground black market, and also bought a lot of good things that are difficult to see in the outside world, and even got a VIP card in the black market, which was exchanged for high consumption.

After that, the group returned to the surface world in a passage to the ground, of course, in a shabby, guarded room, and needed to charge a shell coin to go out.

After seeing the light of day again, Xu Qian raised her head to bathe in the warm sunshine, and said with a smile: "It's better to be outside, it's too depressing underground, only kobolds and goblins like that kind of place." ”

Suddenly, she looked back at the four female slaves she had bought, they were wearing wide clothes to cover their thin bodies, but after all, there were no ready-to-wear stores underground, and the clothes that did not fit the body type still looked rather embarrassing.

"Wait a little longer and you'll be free, first go buy you new clothes, and then go to eat a delicious meal, that shop is gloomy, you shouldn't be full, do you still want to buy a house, you shouldn't have any family......"

Hearing Xu Qian's words, the four female slaves were flattered, but they didn't expect that after being trained and sold, their masters turned out to be such good people, not only did not treat them as slaves, but also gave them basic living materials.

"Mistress, you don't have to be so good to us, these days of being trained, we have long accepted our fate, and it is already a very lucky thing to be able to survive for a long time, I just hope that you and the master will not abandon us. A slave girl said.

"Mistress?" Xu Qian's face turned slightly red when she heard this title, and she quickly changed her expression, and said solemnly: "People should be equal between people, no one is more noble than others, you are you, people like us." Never succumb to fate. ”

Xu Qian said the righteous and awe-inspiring words, and Chu Jing was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Xu Qian's ideological consciousness to be so high, is it because she left Luoli Island? Pirates advocate freedom, but in their opinion, other people's lives are absolutely not equal to their own, but Xu Qian is different, is it because there is no restraint behind her?

In any case, the four slave girls were so touched that they almost swore allegiance with their lives.

However, before he could get out of the alley, Chu Jing stopped, and the others also looked around vigilantly when they saw this.

"Mistress, what's wrong?" a slave girl saw that Xu Qian was easy to speak, and asked her directly in a low voice, with fear on her face.

"It's okay, it's just a little bit, I've seen a lot of these people, and it won't cause trouble. Xu Qian mocked loudly.

Around the corner of the alley followed four masked men in black cloth, one of whom whispered, "Boss, they found us, what should we do?"

Another masked man said coldly: "What if you find out! There is no one here except us, no matter how deep their background is, as long as they rob their money, the world is so big, there is no place they can't go, they pay the bill but directly take out the gold bricks, or they are not stingy, even if they buy a small island overseas, it is enough."

With that, four masked men walked out directly with large knives.

The leading broadsword pointed at Chu Jing and the others, and said coldly: "Hand over your things and gold bricks, we are only here to rob money, if you are not obedient, Lao Tzu doesn't mind robbing by the way." ”

The other three masked men let out lewd laughter, but they were not prepared to stay alive, so young and so rich, they must be the children of some big family or a wealthy businessman, if they knew that they had robbed their heirs, they would spend a lot of money to have all kinds of killers hunt them down, then there would be no peace.

Bai Lan's red jade sword came out of its sheath, stood up directly, and reprimanded loudly: "Shameless thief, you dare to rob in the street, and dare to speak out, see me subjugate you." ”

Bai Lan's swordsmanship has been honed by the thieves during the journey, and the average swordsman can come to four or five.

However, this time Bai Lan can be regarded as meeting an opponent.

Bai Lan charged alone, singled out the four masked robbers, and was suppressed in an instant, it turned out that one of these four people was a great sword master, and the other three were also at the peak of the sword master, on the verge of breaking through.

They followed Chu Jing and the others all the way to the ground from the black market, so they were naturally somewhat sure, and in a place like the black market, ordinary swordsmen would not dare to rob the road.

"Sophia, you go and help Bai Lan. Chu Jing said.

Sophia was holding the trident that she bought at a high price from the black market, and when she heard Chu Jing's words, she immediately pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you want me to go, you can do it yourself." ”

Chu Jing said again: "Your strength is too weak, it is good for you to fight with humans more, I can't always protect you." ”

"Huh, you want to protect me?"

Sophia still obeyed Chu Jing's words, there are indeed many bad people among the human race, and their strength is not weak, if they don't improve their combat power, they may really become a laggard.

Don't look at Bai Lan only in the realm of sword masters, facing a big sword master and three sword masters alone, he only fell into the disadvantage, and there was no sign of defeat at all, this already has a bit of Chu Jing's demeanor, of course, more importantly, overseas people pay more attention to level, and do not study much about swordsmanship, body and other skills, and when I first met a master-level master like Bai Lan, I was not suitable for a while.

However, the masked robber in the lead saw that something was wrong, there were so many people on the other side, just a thin little girl came out, and she could drag it out, and the others would

It won't be a martial artist, or even a more powerful martial artist, the temptation of this gold brick is too great, it is money that ordinary people can't earn in a few lifetimes, and after doing this vote, they can find a place to retire and wait for death.

"Kill!"

The Great Sword Master's offensive became more and more ferocious, and even used the method of exchanging injuries for injuries, Bai Lan's internal strength was limited after all, and he was about to be unable to support it.

"Water waves!"

Sophia's trident pointed at it, and a wave rushed out of the tip of the trident, knocking the masked robber's broadsword out of the way.

"Bai Lan, you rest first, and these little thieves will let me come. ”

Bai Lan gasped and retreated to the back.

The leading masked robber saw that Sophia had just summoned a wave of water, and he was already reluctant, he didn't know what kind of witchcraft this was, or alchemy spells or the like, he only knew that these people in front of him looked very young, but their strength was deeply hidden, and they were definitely a hard stubble.

"What the hell are you?" the masked robber asked in a cold voice, with only one purpose, to avoid the family behind them in the future.

Sophia smiled brightly, "If you want to know, let my weapon tell you." ”

Sophia is going to use the trident to exercise her melee ability, you must know that when she is in the sea, controlling the sea water to attack the sea tribe is not very effective, and Sophia is good at melee combat.

The trident was wielded, quite like Changshan Zhao Zilong's demeanor of riding a thousand.

There is also a surge of water around it, and the effect looks very powerful.

The masked robber in the lead did not retreat directly, but pointed his big knife at Sophia's trident, and gestured to the three younger brothers, telling them to leave first.

However, he still underestimated Sophia's combat power, his own strength was no less than that of the Great Sword Master, and with the bonus brought by controlling a large amount of water, the attack range was much larger than that of an ordinary spear.

At some point, the feet of the three sword-level robbers were entangled in ropes made of water, and with their strength, they couldn't break free for a while.

"Ping Pong ......"

The trident and the broadsword fought against each other for several moves, and Sophia and the great swordsman robbers were equal in melee strength, of course, this was mainly because the robbers were reluctant, and they had to guard against Sophia's weird moves such as unleashing water waves.

Sophia suddenly turned her head and shouted at Chu Jing, "What should I do with these people?"

This question is really a problem, give it to the government, no, this is the governor's palace, it must not work, it is a bit too much to kill them, it doesn't matter if they are guilty to death or not, the main thing is to let Sophia kill people, it is not appropriate.

"Let's beat them up so they can't come out and bully people again. Chu Jing simply used Bai Lan's way of dealing with the bandits.

"Okay. ”

Sophia took a step back, and the trident slammed into the air.

The great swordsman robber thought that there was an opportunity, and hurriedly rushed up with a knife, thinking that as long as he hijacked the woman in front of him, how could he get a large ransom.

And then, he was tragic.

"Bloom Skycanopy!"

From the trident in the air, a large amount of water suddenly gathered, and then it fell suddenly, more than the water of the Great Waterfall Technique that dealt with Du Jiulang and Huo Long last time, and it was even heavier.

"Bang!"

A huge amount of water fell to the ground, and the sound was not loud, but like a meteorite falling, and a large amount of water rushed in all directions, and the water accumulated in the alley was thigh-deep.

Chu Jing and the others were controlled by Sophia and did not affect them.

Looking at the Great Sword Master robber again, he was crawling on the ground motionless at this time, if it weren't for the faint sound of breathing, he would have thought that he had been stoned alive by dozens of tons of water.

The other three sword master robbers, the situation is similar, they are on the edge and have not been directly attacked, but their strength is also weak, and just the aftermath has caused them to suffer heavy losses.

There are people in the surrounding houses who climb the windows to look out, and see that it is a warrior fighting, and hurriedly close the door and hide, chivalrous and forbidden, these people who practice martial arts, kill people and vent their anger if they don't agree with each other, but there are often just things, and ordinary people dare not get involved.

As for those big dilapidated houses that belong to the black market, the people inside also selectively ignore them, and they are unwilling to take care of the order in the black market, let alone what happens outside the black market.

"You can go. ”

Sophia clapped her hands, and then caught the falling trident with a relaxed expression, "Humans, it's still much worse than the Sea Clan." ”

Sophia's words actually have some truth, the sea tribe is inherently stronger than humans, with a hard carapace or flexible skin, and under the huge pressure of the seabed, endurance and strength are naturally strong.

Some sea tribes are also born with natal talents, and can even return to their ancestors to transform into powerful sea beasts.

The mermaid clan is even more so, born with the most top-notch water talent, can freely manipulate the water element, compared to the second fire god Zhu Rong, the god descendant, is one point stronger, let the opponent of the same level and Sophia fight, it is indeed a little difficult for him.

Leaving the deep alley in the west of the city, Chu Jing and the others returned to the inn, these days Lotus will have to retreat for a few days, and the alchemy materials obtained will be prepared as soon as possible to prepare alchemy powder, which can be used in actual combat, and at that time, even if it is an old sword saint like the Death Pirates Bihalin, Lotus will not fall into the bitter battle last time.

The four female slaves were still sent away by Xu Qian, not that they were burdensome, but she didn't want to add these four ordinary people to her journey with Chu Jing.

Although I don't know where Chu Jing's destination is, I want to find it

Looking for something, but danger is approaching them unconsciously every time.

The Blood Bones also has a greater impact on ordinary people, so to sum up, it is better for the four of them to live well in Suze City.

To this end, Xu Qian also helped buy two houses in a remote part of the city, and left a few hundred shell coins so that they don't have to worry about their livelihood for the time being.

I have to say that after seeing Lotus spend thousands of shells to buy an alchemy material at every turn, Xu Qian has a new understanding of money, and she is no longer as concerned about a little money as before.

Yes, a few hundred shell coins is already a small amount of money here in Chu Jing.

The next two days were days of peace until the third day.

"Hello, are you Chu Jing?"

As soon as he opened the door, Chu Jing was entangled by an emaciated middle-aged man.

How did he know Chu Jing's name? Did he check the inn's registration records? This inn really doesn't know how to protect personal privacy.

Chu Jing nodded unhappily and said in a deep voice, "Yes, who are you?"

The person who came did not show any dissatisfaction because of Chu Jing's tone, but smiled and introduced: "Oh, I am the protector of Suze City, although there is a governor in Suze City, but his old man is busy with work, and we still have to do big and small things." ”

There was no castle lord on Momowa Island, but a public elected tribune to collect taxes and maintain the most basic order.

Chu Jing was puzzled, he had only been in Suze City for a few days, could he still get into a lawsuit, and asked, "What does it take to protect the people?"

"Little things, little things. The tribune hurriedly said, "This is not from a small border town, there is a case report, which claims that the auction item worth 4,100 shells was stolen by two thieves, and then you and your friends recovered it and you bought it."

The tribune exaggeratedly said: "Four thousand one hundred shell coins, do you know that the tax revenue of that small town is not four thousand shell dollars a year, which is a lot of money." ”

Chu Jing's face changed, at that time, this matter had passed, the owner of Jubaolou would definitely not hold those two demon slaves responsible, and his brother, who was a civil protection officer, would definitely not ask more, why did he report it directly to Suze City.

"What the hell are you trying to say? If it's to ask me why I have so much money, I just want to say no comment. ”

"No, no, of course not, the tribune was set up to protect private property from infringement, and of course he will not bother,"

Chu Jing frowned, "Is that a matter of paying taxes?" It should be a matter of Jubaolou, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

The tribune shook his head again, "Of course it's not this......?

"Don't ramble, just say what you have to say. Chu Jing was very impatient, the opponents he met were always single-handed, how could there be anything like this old guy.

"Well, here's the thing, a batch of funeral goods was stolen recently, and that batch of funeral goods appeared on the market today, and according to our investigation, it seems to have something to do with you. ”

"Funeral goods?" Chu Jing thought for a while, and had already guessed that he had bought those from the small vendors in the black market, but then sold them to the shop in the black city center for seven hundred shells, could it be that the news leaked from there.

The tribune said: "Actually, the value of those burial goods is not very high, and the family is not a big noble, but it is easy to solve, but in other places, there is an ancient king's tomb that has been stolen, and the descendants of that ancient king are now elders in the Hundred Harmony Island Alliance, and they are very powerful, so I hope you can cooperate with me to investigate." ”

Chu Jing snorted coldly with disdain, "There are no funeral goods, and I don't need to rob the tomb, this matter has nothing to do with me." ”

"It doesn't matter, you just need to cooperate with me first, make a record, and then you can leave. ”

The Baomin official had a good attitude, and he came alone, looking full of sincerity, Chu Jing originally didn't want to deal with overseas officials, nobles, and the like.

But...... Because something unwarranted provokes the whole island wanted, that's even worse.

"Okay, I'll take you there. ”

Chu Jing is still going to an overseas official department for the first time, and he doesn't know what the difference is from the Continent of Leaving the Gods, whether it is really as democratic as it seems.

Chu Jing was even considering whether he could defend himself with his shallow knowledge of the law.

Chu Jing went first to tell Xu Qian and the others the news.

Xu Qian glared at the civil tribune outside very angrily, and said to Chu Jing, "Do you want me to go with you?" ”

"No need, Lian is still in retreat, you'd better stay together, or have a care, you don't know my strength yet, even if you face hundreds of thousands of people, it won't hurt me in the slightest. ”

Chu Jing is the strength of the Sword Saint, after being able to fly in the air, the advantage in numbers has been reduced a lot, at least if you want to fight, you have a choice.

"Well, be careful. ”

Chu Jing looked at Sophia again, her strength was stronger than Xu Qian and Bai Lan, and she had to rely on her if she really encountered any trouble.

I don't know if it's because there are too many bandits and masked robbers I have encountered recently, Chu Jing is very worried about the safety of Baihe Island.

"Take care of them, if there is really any trouble that can't be solved, go to Lian, she is an alchemist who has killed two sword saints, and her strength is definitely beyond your imagination. ”

"Oh, got it. ”

Sophia agreed unconcernedly.
