Chapter 17: Information Trading
The inner city, the ruins of a mansion.
The area of the mansion is very large, covering more than 100 acres, and in the open space in the center, there is a very wide blue brick square, in which many people are like small traders, and small stalls are set up around the square.
In front of these stalls, from time to time, one or two people will crowd in front of them, look at them for a moment or two, or whisper a few questions.
Some people are full of excitement, and some people are disappointed.
This is a small trading market organized by the people who participated in the trial, and everyone can trade or exchange the valuable things they find in the ancient city.
Chu Ming held the handle of the long knife pinned to his waist, and walked leisurely, there were people in groups of three or two along the way, some of them stared at Chu Ming, who was alone, their eyes were about to move, but when they saw the long knife on Chu Ming's waist, they seemed to feel that he was a little difficult to mess with.
Ever since he heard the blood-clothed young man say that everyone related to 'himself' had been killed by him, Chu Ming was not so careful to hide himself.
Chu Ming circled around and found that most of the things that the people here exchanged or traded were some low-level martial arts and some things that boiled the body, and even the forging tendon pills were rarely seen, and they were basically robbed as soon as they appeared.
But this is also normal, after all, this is not a real trading area, there are not many really useful resources flowing, the real trading area is in the center of the inner city, it is opened by the deacons, it is an officially recognized trading place, there, as long as you have resources, you can exchange for almost anything you need in the forging body realm stage, and even get the resources needed in the qi cultivation realm stage.
The most people here trade all kinds of information, some people sell information about various ruins, some people sell information about various characters, no matter what you want to know, as long as you pay enough price, you can get the information you want.
And these happen to be the things that Chu Ming needs most at the moment.
After turning around, Chu Ming came to a stone house with 'Information Trading' hanging on it, hesitated for a moment, and walked in.
The stone house was a little dim, and in the center there was a rectangular stone table, which was made inside, and a young man in a gray robe was lying on a stone chair with his head up, holding a book in his hand, and was reading it with relish.
When the gray-clothed young man saw Chu Ming coming in, he immediately put down the books in his hand, walked over with a smile on his face, and said, "This friend, welcome, what do you want to inquire about, no matter what you want to know, the things in this store will definitely make you satisfied!"
"Oh, no matter what the news, are you sure?" Chu Ming looked at him with a smile on his face when he heard this, and asked.
"Of course, it's not that I'm boasting, there is absolutely no one in the ancient city who is more well-informed than me, and if I don't even know about it, it's useless for you to find someone else. The young man patted his chest and said.
"Well, let's talk about the situation in the inner city center. Chu Ming thought for a moment and said.
"Friend wants to go to the center of the inner city?" the young man in gray asked.
"There is a plan for this. Chu Ming nodded and replied.
The young man in gray thought for a while and said: "The situation in the center of the inner city can basically be heard everywhere, so I won't charge you money, by the way, in Xialiuquan, what do you call your friends?"
"Zhang Yang. "The name of Chu Ming's newspaper.
"It turned out to be Brother Zhang. Liu Quan arched his hand, and then said: "Not long after the trial began, the center of the inner city was occupied by three people, Xu Ling, Yang Yue, and Liu Wu, all three of them are masters of the Nine Layers of Forging Body Realm, and there is a group of martial artists who are not weak under their hands, among which Xu Ling is the most powerful, and he has the most good hands under his hands. ”
"Oh, then let's talk about Xu Ling's strength. Chu Ming bowed his head slightly and said.
"Hehe, there's a charge for this. Hearing this, Liu Quan grinned and said.
"Well said. Chu Ming turned over his hand and took out a spirit stone, put it in front of Liu Quan, and asked, "Is this enough?"
"Yuan Stone!" Liu Quan grabbed the Yuan Stone handed over by Chu Ming, examined it carefully, and then looked at Chu Ming with a smile and said: "Enough is enough, the value of this spirit stone, Brother Zhang wants to know any news today, as long as I know it, I will tell it truthfully." ”
"That's good, I do have a lot of questions I want to ask Brother Liu, Brother Liu will first talk about the strength of the three of Xu Ling. Chu Ming said.
Hearing this, Liu Quan put away the Yuan Stone in his hand, pondered for a while, and said: "Yang Yue and Liu Wu don't need to go into details, they are both ordinary forging body realm ninefold, as for Xu Ling, I heard that he has boiled his body to the limit, and the sense of qi has been born in his body, and there is only one opportunity to transform his qi and blood into true qi and step into the qi cultivation realm, which can be called a half-step qi cultivation realm, as long as there is no accident, he is basically sure that he can join the Shensha Palace."
Therefore, although there are three groups of forces in the center of the inner city, the real controller, everyone knows, is Xu Ling, as long as he wants to, Yang Yue and Liu Wu may not be able to resist ...... together. ”
Chu Ming stayed in Liuquan's small shop for a full morning, and I have to say that this news of Liuquan is indeed well-informed, not only knows the strength of Xu Ling and the others, but even knows exactly what kind of exercises they practice, of course, whether this information is true or false, it is up to Chu Ming to judge it himself.
In the end, Chu Ming also asked some information about the blood-clothed youth he met before and about 'Chu Ming', for the information of the blood-clothed youth, Liu Yi didn't know very well, only knew that he was called 'Fu Xiu', liked to kill, and was always alone with a blood wolf, as for the strength, Liu Quan guessed that it might not be weaker than Xu Ling, but for 'Chu Ming', Liu Quan was silent, only said that he didn't know.
"Thank you Brother Liu today. The information he wanted was almost understood, and Chu Ming got up and said goodbye.
"Hey, hey, easy to say, easy to say. Liu Quan got up with a smile and said by the way: "Brother Zhang wants to inquire about anything in the future, he can come to me directly, not that I am boasting, in this ancient city, except for those deacons, there will never be anyone who is more well-informed than me." ”
"Hehe, I can't say that I still need to trouble Brother Liu in the future, and I will leave. ”
"Farewell. ”
......
"Xu Ling, Yang Yue, Liu Wu, and Fu Xiu...... Sure enough, it is the most important thing to improve the strength first. Chu Ming sighed, and then left the trading area.
Suddenly, a cacophony of voices came from the side, and then a large group of people ran out of the mansion with panicked expressions, many of them injured, not knowing what had happened.
"Help me, who wants to help me, please. A badly injured young man fell to the ground, looking helplessly at the periphery and asking for help from someone nearby.
The people around had no pity, some turned around and left, some stayed to watch the excitement, and even sneered, the ancient city trial is so cruel, even your companions may stab you in the back at any time, no one can rely on you except yourself.
