The black market in the county seat is in a barren mountain more than a hundred miles away.

It is only open on the evenings of the 5th and 20th of each month.

To go to the black market, Chen Xuan can only wait for the 5th of next month.

Halal workshop, fragrant building.

On the second floor, by the window, Chen Xuan was eating wine and food while listening to some content he was interested in.

As his cooking skills became higher and higher, his tongue sensitivity increased greatly, and the food in ordinary restaurants couldn't get into his eyes at all, but his restaurant was not for eating, but to listen to the news.

Among the restaurants, it was originally a place where all kinds of news spread in the rivers and lakes.

In addition to some high-end restaurants that specialize in entertaining dignitaries, the guests of ordinary restaurants are basically people in the rivers and lakes with swords and swords.

When he has free time, Chen Xuan will come to the restaurant to listen to some content that interests him.

"I heard that General Nangong Lei failed to suppress the bandits and was almost killed by the bandits."

"It's really fake, didn't there be news some time ago, General Nangong suppressed thousands of bandits, and the bandits have been suppressed."

"Hehehe, the number of bandits killed by this Nangong general has added up to fifty or sixty thousand, if there are so many bandits, they won't directly besiege the county seat."

"Nangong Lei led 30,000 soldiers, and the imperial court issued 30,000 soldiers' salaries, but in fact, there were only 10,000 soldiers in the garrison camp, and it was okay to deal with ordinary mountain bandits, but against the fierce Koutian rebel army, how could there be no reason to be defeated."

"The Great Jin garrison is already rotten to the roots, I heard that this Nangong Lei also killed good and risked his merits, and some time ago, someone went to the county guard mansion to sue Nangong Lei."

"Brother Shenyan, if the officers and soldiers hear this, you will wait to be in prison!"

“……”

After listening to it for a while, after nothing new, Chen Xuan left the restaurant.

"The grain in the county town has also begun to rise."

As the news of General Nangong Lei's defeat in suppressing bandits spread, and more and more people ran to the county town to sue Nangong Lei for killing good and taking risks, Chen Xuan walked on the street, obviously feeling that the atmosphere in the county town had become a little depressing, and the faces of the people were also sad.

Although most of the people were stopped outside the city without a guide, and the county guard ordered that the spread of rumors was strictly prohibited, the news still spread imperceptibly in the city, and more and more people knew about Nangong Lei's evil deeds.

Someone must be behind this.

However, these rumors and rumors at most make Nangong Lei's reputation stink, Nangong Lei's Nangong Shi clan, which is one of the top five Dashi clans in Yuanzhou, it is impossible to be arrested and imprisoned because of this matter.

Moreover, even the county guards did not have the power to arrest the garrison generals.

Only wait for the state capital to decide.

"Bell Bell Bell ......"

Chen Xuan heard a gong sound coming from not far away.

There was a patrol ahead, banging gongs and shouting.

The gist is that the bandits in Yingchuan County are raging, killing, burning and plundering everywhere, which has seriously threatened the safety of the county, and now the county army has begun to recruit soldiers, and those who join the army will have a family allowance of 30 taels of silver a year.

If a warrior joins, the minimum is the length of ten soldiers.

The higher the cultivation, the higher the position, and the more money there is.

In addition, the secret medicine of cultivation is distributed every month.

Specific requirements can be asked at the recruitment office.

"Recruitment has begun."

Along the way, there were patrol soldiers on every main street to advertise recruitment.

The garrison is unfavorable to suppress the bandits, Yingchuan County can ask the state government for help and let the state government send troops, but now the three princes have rebelled, and the state garrison has been transferred to quell the rebellion, and Yingchuan County can only recruit troops to expand the county army by itself.

Otherwise, if the county army is sent out, there will only be a few thousand city guards in the county town.

"Whether there is a war or not, stock up on some food first."

Chen Xuan was prepared.

There are so many gangs subdued at the bottom, and more than 10,000 taels of silver come in every month, even if the cellars of all the houses are full of grain, it will not cost much silver taels.

Time passed.

660 year of the Great Jin Dynasty, January 5.

Chen Xuan asked for leave in advance, and he went to the black market in the county town early this morning.

In the evening, Chen Xuan came to the barren mountain where the black market was located, he used the shape-shifting technique to slightly change his height, fat and thin, wearing black clothes, and wearing a bronze mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes.

Coming to the barren mountain where the black market is located, and walking about three hundred meters forward, Chen Xuan saw ox carts not far ahead, and next to the ox carts stood a coachman.

These coachmen, one by one, were also tightly wrapped, and all of them wore masks.

"Please show your passpass."

A coachman saw Chen Xuan approaching and made a stiff sound.

Hearing this, Chen Xuan took out the black market token that had been prepared a long time ago and showed it.

"Get in the car!"

The coachman wearing a cat-shaped mask glanced at it and nodded at Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan got into the ox cart of the coachman, and the coachman wearing a cat-shaped mask drove the ox cart to the depths of the barren mountain, about half an hour or so, and the ox cart stopped in front of an abandoned village.

That's where the black market comes in.

When the black market was not open, it was a small deserted mountain village.

Only on the 5th and 20th of the month, the night is popular, and the lights in the small mountain village are shining, but the houses in the village are still very dilapidated, overgrown with weeds and vines, and no one has to deal with them, which looks eerie.

Whether they came to buy or sell things, they were all tightly wrapped, and some of them wore strange masks, and they walked quietly, like evil spirits walking in the world.

If the faint of heart stumbles into this place, they may be frightened.

This small mountain village is not big, there is a main street that directly runs through the small mountain village, Chen Xuan walked back and forth, it only took about half an hour.

On both sides of the street, there are many stalls.

These stalls are filled with elixirs, weapons, cheats, and all sorts of strange things.

There are things on the black market, and there are contraband items that are difficult to buy from the outside world.

For example, powerful crossbows, heavy armor, etc., and even armor-piercing crossbows.

There are also some things that come from murder and treasure and cannot be seen.

For example, Chen Xuan wants to buy the marrow cleansing pill.

The myelin cleansing pill is not sold on the market at all, and the myelin washing pill on the black market is basically from killing people and grabbing treasures, if it is obtained through normal channels, it will not be sold on the black market, and it can be auctioned for a higher price if it is put on the auction house.

Because the bone marrow of the alien beasts used in refining the myelin cleansing pill is not the same, the marrow washing pill refined by different forces has some differences.

Once someone sells myelin cleansing pills on the market, they will definitely be investigated as soon as possible.

Chen Xuan took a look around, and the most sold in these stalls was the pill.

From the secret medicine of the dermabrasion realm to the secret medicine of the visceral realm.

These secret medicines are sold cheaper than those on the market, and they are even much cheaper.

For example, the Five Visceral Yang Yuan Dan has one hundred and two on the market, but there are only ten or two here, but Chen Xuan stepped forward to look at the pills on several stalls and found that more than ninety percent of them were fake.

It's a black market, and there's no guarantee of quality for what you're selling.

If you are deceived, you can only blame yourself for your poor vision.

If you want to make sure that it is genuine, then go to a regular store and buy the secret medicine of cultivation.

What's more, even regular stores sell poisonous secret medicines.

Among them, there are also several stalls with signs of myelin cleansing pills, Chen Xuan came to a stall and asked in a hoarse voice: "Take a look at the myelin cleansing pill." ”
