166 There is no wind and waves
After saying this, Luo Xiansong did not rush to take them off, but asked Chen Xiansong and the three of them to wait for a while, and he went to the clothing store next to him, and got four black robes with hoods out, in addition, he also carried four rather ugly white masks in his hands.
"Are you trying to make us thieves or assassins?" Chen Xiansong took a mask from the other party's hand, flipped it over and over for a while, and then put it on his face.
When the little guy saw it, he immediately squirted out the contents of his mouth, and then laughed and said, "Teacher, it's so funny that you wear this thing." ”
Chen Xiansong pressed the mask to the little one's face, and then smiled himself. This thing is really joyful to wear, a mask, a black dress, it seems that the place where Locke is going to take them seems to be unable to reveal their identity. However, he remembered what Locke had just said that he needed to be able to enter that place, but now he had to wear a mask and wear black, what was going on.
Chen Xiansong voiced his doubts.
"Get in the car first, and I'll explain to you when you get in the car." Locke casually beckoned his groom to come over, and by the way, he asked him to remove the family crest from the strange car.
The carriage carried four people to the center of the city, although the scale of the Emperor City is not comparable to the royal city, but how to say, it is also the largest city in the forefront of King Kate. The place where Locke was going to take them was a little far, and if they walked, they wouldn't be able to reach it when it was completely dark.
"The place we are going to is actually an underground property created by your soul thinkers." Locke sat opposite Chen Xiansong, a little admiring, but also a little envious: "I don't know how the head of your soul thinker grows, you can actually come up with such a thing, the tax revenue of that place alone is more than the sum of three or four big cities." ”
"What the hell is that?" Chen Xiansong asked.
Locke moved himself to a place. Sit more comfortably and explain.
It turned out that the place they were going to was an underground black market. The royal city is too big, and there are many dignitaries and nobles, and some things are inconvenient to show in broad daylight, and they don't dare to let the royal family catch their sore feet, but what about some private shady transactions, they can only be carried out. For this reason, many people have lost their heads, and many big families have become ashes.
More than a hundred years ago. After a certain soul contemplator was also a big family, he felt that it was not possible to go on like this, so he used his own resources to be on the edge of the royal city, that is, in the emperor's fall city. opened such an underground black market...... As a result, it was out of control, and it actually became popular. The royal family received the news shortly after. wanted to eradicate it, but it was secretly obstructed by the Soul Thinkers Association and many aristocratic families, so it had to be stopped.
After Locke explained, the carriage also arrived at its destination.
The doorstep of the destination is hot, full of pedestrians and vendors. The four of them put on black robes and masks in the car, and at this time, Chen Xiansong found that the little guy's black robe was too long, and he asked Locke: "Do you have scissors here?" ”
Locke shook his head: "What nobleman would be idle and have nothing to do in his carriage to prepare the tools that only these subordinates will use." ”
Bai Min walked over. Holding down the hem of the little guy's robe, a sharp three-edged thorn appeared in her right hand, and with a slight stroke on it, the excess fabric was cut off, and then the thorn was retracted into her sleeve. Seeing this, Luo Yu couldn't help but sigh, every time he went to Bai Min, he would always feel that he would treat her as a soft girl, and subconsciously ignore the fact that she was a servant of the sun god, after all, Bai Min's appearance was too deceptive.
The four got out of the carriage...... Their outfits are very strange, and it stands to reason that they should be watched. However, the people around them just glanced at them and went about their business.
In front of Chen Xiansong, there was a gate, which was very dark and dark, and the light seemed to be unable to penetrate it.
Locke gestured for the other three to follow. Before he stepped into the door, it was dark in front of him, and then his eyes quickly became accustomed to the darkness, he looked around, and after entering the door, the width of the aisle was at least thirteen meters, and the length was not clear, and it was too dark in the distance for him to see clearly.
The roof is also very high, and there are large stone pillars supporting the ridge every few meters on both sides, and after a few steps, you can hear the sound of wheels and bones, and from the left side push out a dozen rickshaws, covered with black tarpaulin. The coolies pulling the cart were very hard, their upper bodies were naked, and the muscles of their whole bodies were tense, and even in the dark, they could still see the sweat oiling their solid muscles.
The three of them flashed to the side, and after a dozen trucks passed, Locke said in a strange tone: "So heavy! It is loaded with either weapons or armor, and it is not strange that there is an arms trade in the black market, but this amount is too big, if it is found by the royal family, even if it does not die, it will have to be peeled off, who is so bold that it dares to be transported outside openly. ”
Chen Xiansong didn't care, and the little guy didn't care, she only cared about whether there was Jiangxi in it now.
"Forget it, I don't want to, it has nothing to do with me anyway." Locke patted his head a few times, and the overthinking caused him to start a migraine.
Several people continued to walk forward, and when they passed through a side door, Chen Xiansong found a black-robed man standing there, the man gestured to him, Locke raised his hand, bent it strangely a few times, and the black-robed man nodded and left. Locke explained as he walked, "That person was the guard here...... If outsiders want to enter here, they must be introduced by acquaintances, and the meaning of my gesture just now is: I brought a few new friends in, you can prepare. ”
"Ready?" Chen Xiansong was curious.
"Your Excellency will understand in a moment." Locke smiled and said, "Please continue to come with me." ”
The four of them walked forward for more than forty or so, and it seemed that they were at the right end, and there was a staircase in front of them, which could go up and down.
Below it appears to be a dungeon, and a faint noise seeps through the stairs. The four of them waited for a short moment at the top of the staircase, and a man in a black and white skull mask hurried down the stairs. In such a gloomy and dim environment, wearing such a mask is really a little scary.
The little guy subconsciously hid behind Chen Xiansong. It stands to reason that Bai Min is extremely powerful, compared to him, Chen Xiansong is as weak as an ant, but the little guy hid behind Chen Xiansong for the first time, which has nothing to do with strength. It's just any instinct.
The visitor walked up to the four of them and made a gesture of please.
Chen Xiansong followed him and walked to the left wall, the skull-faced man reached out and pressed it casually a few times, a secret door opened, they walked in, the door closed, and the oil lamp turned on.
The man who came took off the skull mask from his face, and it was a middle-aged man with black hair and brown hair, and he said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry. There were some things that were not dealt with just now, and it took some time. Four friends, please take off your mask and report your identity, and I can make a record. ”
"Locke Pleiades. Qingcheng City. ”
He simply reported the name and place name, but the black-robed man smiled: "Son of the city lord." That's right. I've seen you a few times, how about you, what are you going to buy when you come to us this time? The widow you took last time was still appetizing, right? ”
"Ahem." Locke coughed twice.
The black-robed man shrugged, knowing that he was talkative. He turned his face to look at Chen Xiansong. was about to speak, but he sighed, and after looking at it for a while, he looked at the little guy and Bai Min again. Something seems to have come to mind. He hurriedly took out a book from his arms, quickly turned a few pages, then took a breath of cold air, hurriedly saluted, and said, "I didn't expect the three of them to come to the local area, and I didn't think of the three Your Excellencies at the first time. I'm really sorry. ”
"You know us?" Chen Xiansong looked at the book in his hand, and it was vaguely visible that there was his own head on it.
"It's one of the industries that the association secretly supports." The black-robed man said with a little pride: "Our association is the master here, and Your Excellency, as a soul contemplative, is naturally also one of the masters, since you are the master, then your information will definitely be available here, but I didn't expect Your Excellency to come so quickly." ”
Locke watched from the sidelines, a little lost. He is an only son, and Qingxi City will be inherited by him in the future. With such an identity, except for several aristocratic families in the royal city, as well as members of the royal family, he doesn't need to see too many people's faces. However, when he met the soul-contemplative, he felt that he was naturally inferior.
"We're going to walk around here, are there any rules to be aware of?" Chen Xiansong asked: "After all, we are new to the city, and there are some things that we don't understand, and it will not be good if we conflict with the rules here." ”
After the black-robed man knew Chen Xiansong's identity, he was originally a little nervous, but after hearing this, he completely relaxed: "As long as you wear a mask and a black robe so that people don't recognize you." In addition, if you like something, even if you offer a direct price, as long as it does not exceed 3,000 gold coins, the association will reimburse you in the name of 'knowledge reconstruction', so please don't worry about money. ”
"I see, the welfare of the association is really good." Chen Xiansong nodded to show that he understood, and then said, "We're going back to Black Rock City tomorrow, so let's go and explore this wonderful place first, take a step first, forgive me." ”
The black-robed man didn't even dare to say it.
After Chen Xiansong left the house, the black-robed man took out a quill pen from the side and wrote under Chen Xiansong's portrait: approachable, not arrogant, and able to communicate with inferior people kindly.
After writing this, he added another sentence on the little guy's avatar: No direct contact, details are unknown.
Then he left the secret door, went up the stairs to the third floor, and knocked on a luxurious wooden door.
In the room sat a middle-aged man, his eyes were using a sword, the tip of his nose was like an eagle's hook, and his lips were thin and wide, revealing an aggressive meaning.
"What, Chen Xiansong is also here?" Hearing the report of the black-robed man, the middle-aged man put his hands together and put them under his nose to cover his mean lips, and then thought deeply, and after a while, he said slowly: "According to the information I received, he should leave tomorrow." If he doesn't get in the way, don't leave him alone, if he dares to get in the way, kill him, and when the time comes, you have to do something clean, and don't let those people in the association find their sore feet. ”
"But there's a sun god servant by his side, so it's not easy to do." The black-robed man bent over and said.
"It doesn't matter. If there are more than three Sun God Servants, I may be worried, and I may even give up this plan, but ......" The middle-aged man laughed, his eyes were full of cold light: "There is only one Sun God Servant, I'm afraid of what she does, if she doesn't know each other, it's just to test my newly constructed 'Crystal City Breaking Crossbow', I don't believe her body is harder than the city wall."
