604 Sun Zaoli
"Sell materials, all kinds of low-grade materials, very cheap~! Don't miss it when you pass by~~!"
Sun Zaoli sat cross-legged in the most inconspicuous corner of the square bazaar with a cowering expression, covered in grief, with a small stall and shouting without a sound. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Blackwater City has no guards to maintain order, and everyone speaks with their fists.
In the square market of Blackwater City, the best positions are occupied by the vendors under the powerful gangs. He could only hide in the small corner of the bazaar, trying to keep himself as inconspicuous as possible and not to cause trouble.
He doesn't have any backers, and any little minion of any force in Blackwater City dares to bully him.
Sun Zaoli looked sad, and his eyes were full of confusion.
His small stall is full of some high-grade materials, and the most expensive ones are worth dozens of yuan stones at most, and the total is probably only hundreds of yuan stones. The profit is extremely low, and at most you can earn more than a dozen yuan stones.
He can sleep on the streets and save on rent. But you always have to eat and drink, and any bit of food in Blackwater City costs a few yuan stones.
These materials are sold, the yuan stone is spent, and he doesn't know what to do next!
With his strength, it was very difficult to live in Blackwater City. If you go out of the city, it is extremely dangerous outside the city, and there is only one way to die.
...
"Sun Zaoli!?"
Ye Fan passed by the corner of the bazaar and saw Sun Zaoli, a little unsure.
When he said goodbye to Canglan Country, he saw Sun Zaoli and others for the last time. This time, after more than ten years, I actually saw Sun Zaoli again in the market of Blackwater City. And his appearance has changed greatly, haggard and vicissitudes, as if he is much older.
Sun Zaoli suddenly heard a voice calling his name, and couldn't help but be stunned.
The voice was vaguely familiar, as if it had been heard more than ten years ago.
But how could anyone in Blackwater City know themselves? How could that vaguely familiar voice appear in Blackwater City?!
Hallucination, this must be an illusion!
Sun Zaoli didn't dare to look up, for fear that after being full of hope, he would be deeply disappointed.
Footsteps stopped in front of his stall.
"Ye~... Ye Fan: Is it really you?"
Sun Zaoli was stunned for a moment, trembling for a moment, suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, and finally raised his head. Seeing that it was Ye Fan, he showed a look on his face that he didn't know whether he was sad or happy, and he almost trembled.
"Morning Ray, why are you here? If you are here, then the others should be near this Blackwater City as well. What about them?"
Ye Fan was also very surprised, and suddenly recalled a major event in the past.
In that year, there was a palace coup d'état in Canglan Kingdom, and after the monarch Ling Feizhuo successfully seized power from the hands of the regent Ling Jiaojiao, he immediately sent all the people from Ling Jiaojiao's faction up and down, including "two martial kings, three hundred martial marquis, and five thousand martial honors", to the Zhongzhou battlefield.
Ling Feizhuo almost destroyed half of the Canglan Country.
After he returned to Canglan Country and found out about this situation, he forced Ling Feizhuo to commit suicide by jumping off a building and falling into the sea in a fit of rage. But the big mistake is irreparable, and all the elites of this large group of Canglan countries have come to Zhongzhou.
Since Sun Zaoli appeared in Blackwater City, then everyone else should also be in the vicinity.
Mu Bing, Qin Yuer, Cao Youwen, Jiang Youxi, Ao Lie.... Hao Ziming, Bian Herong Wuwang, Jin Xinwei Wuwang, these hundreds of Wuhou, Wuzun, and even Wuwang were all the people he was most familiar with in Canglan Country and Luyang Mansion back then, and a large group of soldiers of the elite army of Canglan Country.
These people include his former partners who practiced and studied together, officials and generals who worked together in Canglan, cronies of the corps he cultivated, and generals and soldiers who followed him to fight in the Scorching Sun Mountains.
"They.... They're all ...."
When Sun Zaoli talked about everyone, he almost cried bitterly, not daring to look at Ye Fan's gaze.
"What's wrong with everything?"
Ye Fan's gaze became extremely sharp, it was impossible for so many people to have an accident.
After a long while, Sun Zaoli's mood stabilized, and finally slowly told what had happened over the years.
"That year, an envoy of the Zixuan Dynasty came to Canglan Country and asked for a group of troops to be requisitioned to Zhongzhou. Monarch Ling Feizhuo seized the opportunity to send all of us to the Zixuan Dynasty.
We thought that the lord of the country sent us to the Zhongzhou battlefield to fight, and we did not resist fiercely.
However, later we learned how vicious Ling Feizhuo was. He was afraid that we would return to Canglan Country one day in the future, so he actually spent a lot of money to bribe the officials of the Zixuan Dynasty, thinking that we would not be able to go back.
The officials first found a reason to send the two martial kings, Bian Herong and Jin Xinwei, to other places, so as not to cause them bad things.
Then, we privately sold the rest of our Wuhou and Wuzun to a sinister mine near Blackwater Bay. They have a martial king, and our group of people is powerless to resist.
I was lucky enough to have a serious illness before I entered the mine, and I contracted a malignant miasma. The mine was afraid that I would infect others, so they threw me directly in Blackwater City and didn't let me follow me into the mine. Since then, I've been recuperating in Blackwater for almost a year or two!"
Sun Zaoli told Ye Fan about the big things that happened in the past few years.
Ye Fan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that they didn't die, but were sent to the mine, but he was still extremely uncomfortable, "It's me who has caused you all!"
In order to wrest power from Ling Jiaojiao, Ling Feizhuo wiped out all her factions.
But almost all the people in her faction were brought out by him, and they were actually a group of people, courtiers, local officials, and elites who were very close to him.
If it weren't for him, they wouldn't have joined Ling Jiaojiao's faction and been implicated.
He was furious, but Ling Feizhuo had already fallen into the sea and died, and there was no way to make him die again.
"Which mine did they go into?"
Ye Fan immediately asked, the top priority is to rescue everyone, and not let them continue to stay in the mine. In a place like a mine, people can die at any time.
"Candle Dragon Mine!"
Sun Zaoli has been in Blackwater City for the past two years, and he is also familiar with the situation here, "At first, I didn't know what kind of mine it was. Later, it became clear that it was the Candle Dragon Mine under the name of the Butcher Gang, and now they are almost all mining on the Candle Dragon Mine.
That mine is notoriously bad in Blackwater Bay, it's the number one murderous mine, and people are dying every day, and they're always coming in alive and coming out dead! I haven't seen them come out since they entered the mine!"
"Butcher Gang!
Ye Fan's face couldn't help but sink.
In such a short time since I came to Blackwater Bay, I have heard the words Butcher Gang and Candle Dragon Mine several times.
The Ghost Empress said that she would prepare to unite all the forces near Blackwater Bay to force the Butcher Gang to hand over the Candle Dragon Mine and excavate the ancient ruins of the Candle Dragon Sacred Cave.
The thin man he met at the city gate was a member of the Butcher Gang.
Unexpectedly met Sun Zaoli in the bazaar, only to learn that a large group of people from the Canglan Kingdom had been sent to the Butcher Gang's Candle Dragon Mine.
It seems that this butcher gang can't get around.
"I'm going to find the Butcher Gang and try to get everyone out! I rented a room at the Blackwater Inn in the city, and I came to this market to find a copy, but I haven't found it. You help me find this material in the bazaar, and after you find it, go to the big inn and wait for my news!"
Ye Fan said in a deep voice, and casually handed Sun Zaoli a sum of yuan stones.
Sun Zaoli took the heavy bag of yuan stones, and almost cried.
He knew that the price of the kind of material Ye Fan was looking for, although it was relatively uncommon, it was not very expensive. These thousands of yuan stones, let alone buying one material, even if you buy ten copies, it is far enough. This is obviously because Ye Fan didn't want him to lose face, so he found an excuse to give him more yuan stones.
"Hmm!"
Sun Zaoli nodded, revealing concern, "The Butcher Gang is the No. 1 gang in Blackwater Bay, and its strength is extremely strong. The gang leader is a terrible martial emperor, and there are many martial kings in the gang, who are rampant and unreasonable. It's hard to deal with them!"
"You don't have to worry about that, I'll figure it out!" (To be continued.) )
