Volume 2: The Mercenary's Revenge Chapter 49: The Mysterious Underground Ghost Market
Walking into the second commercial district of the imperial capital, a depressed atmosphere will come to your face, which is different from the prosperity of the central area, where there is a dilapidation and depression. At first glance, every shop here is deserted, and basically every shop is not very large, there are no buildings higher than three floors, and even some gambling houses and wine stalls are deserted.
"It's too deserted here!"
"Don't look at the deserted place during the day, when it comes to night, it immediately looks different. ”
"Oh!" Yi Tian didn't believe that this second commercial district was already close to the slums, how could there be aristocrats here in the middle of the night to have fun.
"Master, where is the ghost market you are talking about!"
"It's just a short walk ahead. The driver pointed to a dilapidated flat-roofed house not far ahead and said, "I won't go ahead, the people in the ghost market are too tyrannical, and someone will take you there when you go into that house." ”
"Okay. ”
There were very few pedestrians on the street, Yi Tian felt the cold of the imperial capital in winter for the first time, the cold air seemed to be mixed with a little rancid smell, not far from the bungalow, and after a while, Yi Tian arrived, but the rancid smell was even stronger, just like the smell of dead cats and dead dogs, pushing open the door, the house was in a mess, the dirty environment and the violent stench almost made Yi Tian vomit, both on the table and on the ground were full of dust, as if no one had been here for decades.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a dirty place in the imperial capital with a glamorous surface. ”
Yi Tian was about to turn around and go out, but a cloth bag was suddenly put on his head, and Yi Tian was about to break free, only to hear a gloomy voice in his ears, "If you want to go to the ghost market, don't struggle." ”
Yi Tian gave up the struggle, through the gap in the cloth bag, Yi Tian found that the light in front of him gradually disappeared, replaced by a darkness, and in the dark Yi Tian still felt that his body was constantly sinking, and the sound of the wind whistling in his ears seemed to be going down to the ground.
After a short time of about ten minutes, Yi Tian felt that he had finally stepped on the ground, not the same light and fluttering feeling before, and through the cloth bag Yi Tian was surprised to find that there was a trace of bright light flashing in front of him, and there was a noisy human voice in his ears, has it already arrived? Yi Tian felt a sudden light in front of him, the cloth bag on his head had been lifted, he turned around sharply but did not see anyone, those who led the way flashed too fast!
Yi Tian had never seen such a spectacular scene, and in front of him was a very large depression, the size of which could be ranked among the top two in the underground caverns that Yi Tian knew, second only to the space under the ice, surrounded by high earth slopes, each of which was connected to the depression, and all of them were made into the shape of steps.
The entrance he is currently in should be one of the many entrances, Yi Tian has carefully observed that the entrance should be similar to a slide, each time you can enter three people side by side, two are guards and one is a guest, the guard grabs the guest and slowly slides down from the height, which can not only ensure the safety of the guest, but also close the return passage in time after landing. What shocked Yi Tian was that there were dozens of slides similar to the kind of slides behind him, and just after Yi Tian looked at it for a while, there were five or six people coming to this ghost market from several other slides, and looking at their shocked looks, they knew that they must have come back in like themselves.
Yi Tian was not in a hurry to enter the ghost market, in his opinion, knowing all this in front of him was the fun. Right now is a wide market, although this is underground, but Yi Tian doesn't feel the darkness at all, there is a whole row of lighting lampposts at the exit of each slide alone, and the beating halo inside is actually a magic flame, which makes Yi Tian shocked, you must know that the burning of magic flames is not ordinary firewood, but the valuable magic core, how many magic cores do you need for so many lighting lampposts! Yi Tian couldn't help but sigh, it seems that the people behind this ghost market are definitely not ordinary people.
There are almost 100 steps from the dirt slope to the recess, and as Yi Tian walks, he observes, and the whole market has a strange atmosphere, although it is like daylight here, there is always a cold and gloomy atmosphere
Always haunting him, this is by no means ordinary underground moisture, but a bit like the legendary spiritual magic, if it weren't for Yi Tian's own strong spiritual power, it is estimated that he will be delirious after a while. The stall owners don't show their true faces, all of them wear different styles of masks, and the weird shape will definitely make some fragile people stupid on the spot.
Stepping into the market, Yi Tianden felt several pairs of eyes staring at him, looking at this outsider one by one behind the huge signboard, and the powerful aura on his body made these people tremble a little. The noise continues, and countless buyers are looking for their love in this market, but more skeleton sellers are thinking about the wealth that has been delivered to their doors.
Yi Tian's eyes quickly swept over the stalls on both sides, basically there were some indiscriminate things, either all kinds of poisonous powder or all kinds of hidden weapons, not all broken blades or useless potions, none of them could enter Yi Tian's eyes, at this time a stall owner stopped Yi Tian.
"Young man, I see that you have a fierce face. An old voice came from behind Yi Tian.
Yi Tian was a spirit, then turned to look, and a white-bearded old man wearing a half-cut skull mask was looking at him with a smile.
"What do you mean by that, old man?" asked Yi Tian.
"If you want to know, pay 10 gold first. ”
What about robbery! Do fortune tellers charge so much now? And with a fierce face, I will say this too.
"Old man, isn't your business not doing well today!"
"Hehehe, young man, you have a disaster in your life, and a lot of people around you have died!" the old man said with a smile on his face.
A nameless flame burst up, Yi Tian smashed a broken shield on the stall with one punch, grabbed the old man's collar with one hand and roared, "Who the hell are you! Who are you!!?"
"Calm down, young man, I'm a blind fortune teller. The old man said with a smile on his face.
Yi Tian was also carried away by anger just now, but now he has gradually calmed down, "Then how do you know?" ”
"Although I am blind, old man, I feel very accurately, young man, as soon as you appear I feel a violent aura, but whoever feels this way is either the most vicious and vicious, or those who are riddled with calamity. You are definitely not the former, then you must be the latter, and the latter has a common characteristic that is the early death of close relatives, or the occurrence of death around you. ”
After listening to it, Yi Tian also felt that what the old man said made some sense, he would never be so irritable before, it seems that since the Forest of Warcraft came out, his personality has changed greatly, and he who was originally optimistic and cheerful has gradually become violent and irritable, and he wants to solve everything with violence.
"Master, do I have a solution to this?"
The old man spread his hands and smiled brightly. Yi Tian understood at a glance, and immediately took out 50 gold coins and put them on the table.
"It's not terrible to have a fierce face, and it's not terrible to be accompanied by disasters around you, the only thing that is terrible is to be remembered by sanctimonious people. ”
Yi Tian looked confused, "I didn't understand what you said." ”
"I'm not talking about a solution, I'm reminding you to beware of villains. The old man changed his smile and said very seriously.
"Villain, I haven't provoked anyone along the way, how can anyone worry about me?" Yi Tian was a little puzzled, he had been relatively low-key in Henassas for the past year, and basically he didn't end up with anyone.
"Often the more sanctimonious the heart, the more treacherous the villain, the villain is not provoked by you, but he wants to provoke you. ”
Yi Tian wanted to ask something more, but the old man had already turned around, and the old man's old back seemed to indicate something.
Walking all the way forward, Yi Tian's mind kept coming to mind what he had seen and heard in Henassas for more than a year, and in his heart, he really didn't have any mean things towards people in the past year or so, or had a grudge against anyone, could it be that the old man deliberately exaggerated things in order to cheat money? No, looking at him like that, he obviously had something to say. Forget it, I'm Yitian, I've been afraid of anyone, the boat has come to the bridge
Straight, there is no need to be spoiled by the old man's words.
The deeper you go into the ghost market, the more Yi Tian can understand the meaning of the word "ghost", although the temperature of this underground cave is no different from that on the ground, but Yi Tian obviously feels that the more he walks inside, the colder his body becomes, this is not the kind of cold on the surface, but the kind of coolness on the spiritual level, even if there is a blood-red existence in the sea of consciousness, but this coolness can still slowly penetrate in.
Yi Tianqiang endured this uncomfortable feeling and slowly deepened, all kinds of shouts and voices around him gradually became louder, and a stall in front of him was full of several circles of people, and many buyers wearing all kinds of masks were watching the excitement.
"Everyone, take a look, take a look! Ancestral forging technology, all my blades here are indestructible, sharpened iron like clay treasures, if you don't believe it, come and try it!!" A vendor wearing a skull mask shouted loudly, while also holding a thin sword to demonstrate in public, under his feet was a large rock dozens of centimeters thick, only to see that the merchant just waved lightly, the boulder under his feet broke in response, and immediately many people present applauded.
"Fathers and fellow villagers, I wish Tieshi will never deceive everyone, you can try the sword with me if you want to buy, and if you are not satisfied, you will return it. ”
"Good!!"
"Okay, boss!!"
"Don't say I've tried, it's really sharp!" said a few leading buyers, fanning the atmosphere.
"Boss, don't just try yours, try this knife of mine. A tall and strong man squeezed in front of everyone, "This one of mine is made of iron, and it has been with me for more than ten years, if you can cut it, I will buy it first!"
"Give it a try! Try it! Try it!" The onlookers who ate melons became even more excited when they saw someone picking thorns, and shouted one after another.
"Hahaha, everyone is optimistic!" I saw the boss holding the thin sword in the air and slashing down violently, and the strong man holding the iron heavy sword also blocked with all his strength, and in an instant, the strong man's iron heavy sword split in half and fell to the ground.
The onlookers were stunned for a moment, and then thunderous applause, one by one, they frantically rushed forward to buy it, after all, everyone in the imperial capital is proud of having a divine soldier.
"Don't worry, everyone, don't worry! Everyone has it! Everyone has it!!Today's special offer, no matter what weapon is 50 gold, all 50 gold, missing today is missing a lifetime, missing today you will regret it for life. ”
Yi Tian still had the mentality of watching the excitement at first, but the more he saw the end, the more ridiculous it became, the acting skills of this vendor were too clumsy! The cross-section of the boulder was uneven, obviously it was not caused by this thin sword, even if it was said that it was chopped by the thin sword, but Yi Tian's eyes could see it really, and before the thin sword touched the surface of the boulder, the boulder would automatically break into two halves, and the loophole was too big, that is, everyone present was infected by this atmosphere, and they didn't look carefully. Besides, the strong man who suddenly appeared is even more ridiculous, although the machete is indeed very similar to the iron casting from the appearance, but if you look carefully at the inner core exposed after it is cut off, it is 100% definitely not the raw material of iron, it is estimated that it is composed of three indiscriminate materials, otherwise the thin sword will be cut constantly!
Yi Tian looked at the people who were robbing and laughed in his heart, it turned out that there were such ignorant people even in the imperial capital! He was about to turn around and leave, when suddenly the strong man stopped him.
"Little man, come over to me!"
Yi Tian felt a burst of disgust in his heart, to say that he is not short, the size of 175 is considered to be above middle even in Granton, how come someone always calls himself this as soon as he arrives in Henassas, and the most important thing is that every time this kind of disrespectful person always kneels in front of him and begs for mercy in the end, when is this vicious cycle a head!
Yi Tian didn't pay attention to the strong man and walked forward on his own, but a gust of wind hit the back of his head, and Yi Tian tilted his head to dodge this menacing punch.
If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, and if people offend me, I won't tolerate it, this is Yitian's motto.
