Walking out of the passage, the front suddenly opened up.

In front of him was a huge hollowed-out cavern, the high dome leaking out of the confluence where the moonlight and downward convective wind poured down.

The surrounding rock walls were divided into several layers, and none of them were filled with oil-soaked torches, illuminating the cave as if it were daylight.

They were on a high platform, with stairs winding down to the left and right, and at a glance below, there were a dense crowd of stalls, and countless people with masks on their faces were shuttling through it, looking for what they liked or needed.

In the deepest part of the cavern, there was a large clearing, where there were no stalls, only a huge curtain, and seats were set up on the rock walls around it, but it was all empty at this time.

Shangguan Li took a cursory look and knew that there was a lot of space behind the curtain, and it should be the place where the auction would be held later.

"Hey! What are you doing here, why don't you go down quickly? ”

A somewhat delicate girl's voice came from behind her.

Shangguan Li found that the platform at this exit was very narrow, and they were a group of three people going to this station, and the people behind them really couldn't get out.

"I'm sorry."

She looked back, then walked down the stairs on the left.

Shangguan Li just took a look, most of the herb sellers were concentrated here, and she had to get some raw materials to replenish her reserves first.

There are not many buyers here, after all, most of the people who come here are people with a certain status, and they are probably very keen to buy the finished pills.

As for the herbs, unless they are particularly precious, it is estimated that only people like Shangguan Li, who are very proficient in making poison and pharmaceuticals, will come to buy them.

Shangguan Li walked all the way, and when he saw what he needed, he didn't rush to stop and start, but honestly visited all the stalls with medicinal herbs, and exchanged a few words with every seller.

"Master, what is she doing here?"

Xuanyuan Ye blinked, and his tone was relaxed.

"Save us money."

To us?

Shaking the light and chewing on this word, isn't the inventory of the Dark Moon Pavilion insufficient?

No, Tianxuan spent a lot of money on all kinds of strange herbs some time ago. You can't squander it so quickly.

But he didn't ask this, for he found that his general's gaze was always fixed on the woman, as if he was interested in her.

"This."

Shangguan Li picked out a dog's tail grass from a pile of garbage-like weeds.

The seller, who looked a little drowsy, lazily dropped a sentence when he saw this.

"Five hundred taels."

"Seriously?"

Shangguan Li twisted his eyebrows, although it was a question sentence, his voice was very calm.

The seller laughed.

"One price, if you don't buy it, you will get out!"

"Oh."

Shangguan Li took out the black wooden card on his waist, shook it in front of the seller, and said with a smile.

"How about I give a thousand taels?"

The seller can do business in this, and naturally he is also well-informed, and he recognizes what this black wood brand represents, and his eyes light up when he hears it.

"Well, I like a cheerful person like a girl......"

"But there is one condition."

Shangguan Li took the wooden sign back a little and gently and skillfully avoided the seller's hand.

The seller's tone suddenly became bad when he heard it, and he said in a vicious voice.

"What are the conditions, a good one thousand taels is one thousand taels, and it will not be sold if it is less than this price!"

"This woman is so stupid."

Shaking Light looked at the scene and said in a low voice.

How can you still report something high when you buy something in such a place, is this unclear waiting to be slandered?

Xuanyuan Ye didn't speak, just quietly looked at Shangguan Li's back.

Shangguan Li's face did not move, and he said lightly.

"How about a thousand taels to buy a chance that you can continue to stay here?"

The seller's heart froze, and his body suddenly straightened, and he looked as if he was about to rush up and beat someone at any time.

"What do you mean by that?"

Shangguan Li played with the black wooden card in his hand, and his voice was colder than the moonlight overhead.

"This firewood gathering will be called the first event in the black market, presumably it will not let some worthless people come in to make money, and you can still not be driven out with all this garbage on your stall, I guess ......."

She paused, then as if she had finally remembered the reason, and suddenly realized.

"Either you gave the money to get in, or you had someone on your head. But no matter which one it is, as long as it is made public, whether the business can be done or not is another matter, what will happen to you in the future? ”

Even if the seller's face was half blocked by the mask, he couldn't hide his angry look.

The firewood collection will indeed have high requirements for sellers who can enter it, and they generally can't get in.

But these herbs are different, and if the herbs are not used, it is difficult to confirm whether they are effective or not.

And the amount of herbs is large, if you check them one by one, it is too late.

Therefore, as long as you deliberately pick up some weeds that are relatively rare in the outside world and pay more money to go up, the general inspection people will not be very serious.

Almost every year, there are people like this who want to take a sip of soup along with it, and he is no exception.

Although this is almost a well-known secret in a black market market, this woman is right, it is one thing to know in her heart, and it is another thing to be poked out on the spot.

Even if the people who hold the firewood gathering party are willing to turn a blind eye to their existence, it doesn't mean that they will fight against the distinguished guests for the sake of them bastards.

The smile on the corner of Shangguan Li's mouth became more and more intense.

"How's it going, how are you thinking about it? I don't have a lot of time for you to think. ”

The seller's eyes gradually changed from fierce to compromised, and finally she was defeated.

"Gotta get it, take it away quickly!"

"Oh, that's embarrassing."

Shangguan Li said this, but his subordinates were not polite at all, pulled out four or five herbs from the pile of weeds, and said with a smile.

"Thank you for helping the boss prosper in business."

With that, she got up again and went to the next house.

Then I don't know what she said to the seller of the stall, but she actually took seven or eight ordinary-looking herbs from it without paying a penny.

Shake Light's eyes widened, this was really an eye-opener.

"Hasn't anyone asked her a question before?"

Xuanyuan Ye touched his chin, and his ink-dyed black pupils looked at Shangguan Li's back and smiled.

"There aren't many people who can tell if so many herbs are useful in the blink of an eye, and even if there are such people, they probably don't have the courage to be so arrogant here."

Shaking the light followed the gaze of his own general, looking at the woman who was tossing and turning in various herb stalls, and suddenly felt that the general's admiration for her was indeed reasonable.
