Chapter 92: My Purpose (Part II)
In the dungeon, there are many forces that make it not completely boring although it is hierarchical, and the intertwining of various forces makes the dungeon look like a hodgepodge, with all kinds of colors and tastes.
This is a jungle world where strength is respected, and it is also a world with serious racism, where humans have always been the bottom of the bottom, but it does not prevent smart humans from standing out and joining the hodgepodge of this force.
On the flag in front of me, the steel bar is written with the word "forget worries", although the word has its steel bones, but the meaning of the words reveals a free and easy nature, looking at these two words, as if there is really a feeling of forgetting worries.
This is a shop opened by human forces in Qinglong City, to be precise, every district of Qinglong City has the existence of the Forgetting Worry Pavilion, in this intricate hodgepodge of forces, the owner of the Forgetting Worry Pavilion is also a force to be reckoned with, but he is self-aware, and never participates in any struggle for power among these forces.
It only does business, all its purposes are only for money, and the services it provides are a secret that many people cannot see. Then, we need such a place, which only talks about money, not about human feelings, does not participate in any power struggle, and does not have any position, in order to provide people with the greatest peace of mind.
It's like a neutral bank, just using its reputation to keep the confidentiality of its customers, and it has achieved a century-old foundation.
The Pavilion is such a place, it involves a wide range of businesses, such as above-ground and underground trade, things that do not see the light, and most importantly, its secret information industry. As long as you have money, you can buy a lot of news here, and although it will not satisfy you 100%, the probability of getting an answer is 50% or 60%, which has made this place unique.
I heard Ye Xiao talk about this place, so this has become one of my goals, the Forgotten Worry Pavilion is not only in the Qinglong City in the dungeon, even in these dungeons, no matter how dilapidated the city, there is the existence of the Forget Worry Pavilion, such a Forget Worry Pavilion forms a huge net, I want to use its power to find Xinyi.
This is undoubtedly the best way, now that I have money, I naturally want to come to this Forget Worry Pavilion as soon as possible, the only thing that makes me feel a little uneasy is that I am involved in the power struggle of the dungeon, I have tried my best to solve it, but I still don't have the confidence to guarantee that the information I asked will not be leaked.
I don't trust the credibility of the Dungeon Merchants that much.
With this contradictory and complicated feeling, I walked into the Forgotten Worry Pavilion, and unexpectedly, the hall of the Forgotten Worry Pavilion was like the hall of an ordinary family, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw that the side chairs of the dining table were full of people.
There were four benches at the dining table, one for each person, and four benches on either side of the hall, and three people had already sat according to the rule of one person, and I entered the room, just enough to sit on the last side chair.
The people who were already waiting in the middle of me didn't pay any attention to my arrival, and the people sitting here were all dressed in the same way as me, at least from the outside, tightly clutching their black cloaks, pulling down the brim of their hats, and looking indifferent to themselves.
Indeed, it was not too visible to buy and sell here, and I tightened my cloak as I could, and the brim of my hat was pulled to the lowest, and I sat down in the spare seat.
Everyone was quiet, they didn't talk to each other, and I didn't understand the rules of the Forgetting Worries Pavilion, so I waited silently and quietly. But we didn't have to wait long, and an old man with a mask came out from behind the hall, and said to us in an old man's unique old voice: "There are so many guests today, according to the rules, eight guests are received every day, and the source of guests is complete. ”
I was a little surprised by this old man's approach, it turned out that I was lucky, and I walked to the Forgotten Worry Pavilion and inexplicably got the last place, otherwise I would have to find other Forget Worry Pavilion stores.
The door was closed, and the old man handed out to each of us a number plate, and I didn't know what it meant, and when he asked me what I was here for, I simply said, 'I'm here to find someone,' and he gave me a small red sign with very simple Arabic numerals, and I don't know what it meant.
All the people silently finished receiving their number plates, and the old man looked at the number plates carefully, and finally walked up to me and said, "Your luck is really good, there is no one queuing in front of your request, so you go in, after this hall, the third alley will go to the end." When the time comes, it's up to you to decide what kind of choice you make. After saying that, the old man stopped talking nonsense and turned to leave.
I played with the number plate with some curiosity, and then walked towards the back of this hall, behind the hall, there were eight alleys, and I followed the old man's instructions, and walked into the alley marked '3' with the number plate.
It's really a strange place, the entrance is obviously an ordinary hall, but behind it is a completely closed alleyway, which makes people wonder what kind of structure is here?
And what does it mean that everything depends on my choice? Thinking like this, I've been walking for several minutes, and the alleyway seems to have no end.
The roadway here is not a straight line, but has its own curves and twists, and under my sensitivity, I found that this roadway is not parallel, but slightly inclined downward.
Interestingly, it turned out that the real place of business was hidden underground, and no matter how long the alley was, there was an end, so after walking for a few minutes, I finally saw a room.
The room was divided into seven or eight counters, each of which was covered with a heavy curtain, and above the curtain were the symbols of coins, which read '5', '10'... All the way up to '80.
And the logo of that coin is not the logo of miscellaneous wood coins and hardwood coins, all of them are the logos of mahogany coins, and the price is really expensive, and the ten rosewood coins I originally got could only get the second-to-last service.
Now that I have 30 mahogany coins on my body, I didn't hesitate to choose the counter marked '30', in fact, I regret a little, why don't I save more money and choose the best counter? But it doesn't matter, just let out a hope sooner.
Passing through the heavy curtain, I found that behind the counter I was greeted by a young human woman, she was veiled, I couldn't see her face clearly, and without any extra nonsense, I sat down in front of her.
She was also a simple person, saying directly to me, "Please bring out the relevant stuff of the person you are looking for, the more the better." ”
I didn't rush to say anything about Xinyi, but asked curiously: "Why are the charges different here?" ”
The veiled young woman said lightly: "The power used is different, of course, the charges are different, and the results will be different. It's like if you enter this room and the charge is thirty Mahogany Coins, it means that you have a minimum of 30% hope to find the person you are looking for. ”
I was stunned for a moment, three percent of hope? Is it a little less? But I was relieved, after all, I didn't plan to come just once, and with the environment I'm in right now, it's not too difficult to earn Mahogany. So, I nodded, and said directly to the young woman, "I want to find a human girl, she entered the dungeon about half a year ago, I don't have anything about her, in this case, what should I do?" ”
I thought that my statement would make the veiled woman in front of me give me a direct answer of 'this is difficult', but unexpectedly, her eyebrows and eyes only wrinkled slightly, and she quickly took out a pen and paper.
"Now I need you to describe, try to describe as clearly as possible the human woman you are looking for. Of course, since the average person lacks such a description ability, I will sketch out some typical templates for you to choose from. ”
As soon as the connoisseur made a move, he knew if there was one, which reminded me of the kind of face-fighting method of the public security organs in the ground world, but when I arrived in the dungeon, it became a hand-painted, and I rushed to this ability, and the young woman in front of me was also amazing.
I began to communicate with her about Xin Yi's appearance, which must be thanked to Xin Yi for being quite beautiful, otherwise an ordinary public face is the most difficult to achieve the best effect.
In addition, Xin Yi has a sense of 'stay' and distance that no one else can copy, sometimes it looks like a high-tech robot, to put it simply, it is natural to stay, which is also a relatively obvious feature.
If she walks alone on the street and has no special expression, no one knows where her mind will wander, and her eyes are slightly empty and rarely blinking, and she has been mistaken for blind more than once.
"What an interesting and unique human woman." In my description, the young woman in front of me in black veil kept writing and drawing, and I found that with my description, her pen of Xin Yi already had a five-point likeness.
This gave me some hope and started to talk to her about more details.
It was a tedious process, but I didn't get impatient, but in this description, I began to miss Xin Yi very much.
I know I've been thinking about her all along, but I can't describe how upside down my life has been for most of the year.
I don't have time to miss someone too much, and I never realize how much I miss her when I can be quiet and concentrate on talking about her.
