Volume 1 Earth Chapter 156 Pan Jiayuan (1)
A day apart, Ning Ke came to Panjiayuan again.
Today is New Year's Day, and the next snow finally stopped in the early hours of the morning.
After all, it was a cold rainy and snowy weather, and there were many fewer buyers and sellers in the ghost market of Panjiayuan than in the past. Ning Ke still felt that the market was overcrowded, crowded everywhere, rubbing shoulders one after another, bustling and shouting.
This may be the reason why Ning Ke has been living in a slower pace of life, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and a corner of the garden-like Qiantang District. The market is crowded with pedestrians of all colors, but it is not noisy, everyone is only whispering.
Buyers are definitely a sight: some are dedicated to braving the cold to really buy goods, some come to find out the approximate price of their private collections, some are elegant, and some are lively......
Almost every customer who comes to the ghost market has a flashlight, as if to see the goods more clearly, and it is said that this is a rule that has been passed down from the previous life.
Ning Ke thought that it was too much for this to happen, the lights in the Panjiayuan Market were very bright, unless it was necessary for the jade to shine with a flashlight. The buyer's flashlight is more like a symbol, a kind of qualification, telling the seller, we know how to do it, you fool me.
Ning Ke walked around, but didn't find a single thing he wanted.
With his divine sense, he can see that objects that have aged, especially those that have passed through the hands of masters, will condense some aura attached to the years. From this point alone, there is basically no mistake about the age and age of the object, and as for the other values, that is another matter, and he is not very interested.
Originally, when I was going to encounter an object that I couldn't understand, I spent three drops of my own blood to stimulate the "Heavenly Machine" to help identify it, but now I don't need to see it at all.
He came to Panjiayuan to visit the ghost market, and wanted to buy some jade, jade materials or spiritual items, and by the way, see if there were any medicinal materials. What he urgently needs to do now is to test the elixir and improve his cultivation as soon as possible;
Second, he wanted to make sure that Shen Tongjuan, who helped him escape this time, was okay. Yesterday, he escaped from the clutches of two heaven-level cultivators, and tried to contact Shen Tongjuan with his mobile phone, but found that her mobile phone was turned off.
......
As one of the top professional killers in the world, Pence is well-trained and extremely responsive. From the moment he woke up, he immediately determined the direction and rowed a small kayak straight to Beijing-Tianjin Port.
It happened to be downwind and downstream, and there was no delay along the way, and the lights of the port could be seen in the distance.
Suddenly, his assassination "target" jumped out of the water and onto the kayak like a dolphin.
The kayak was deformed by the falling man, first arched inward and then straightened, and Pence was affected by this force as if on a trampoline, and his body bounced high, and then fell down. Before he could sit still, a miserable white smiling face came to him, and he fainted in fright.
"What kind of bullshit killer, isn't it scared?!"
The kayak was already small, barely enough to seat two people.
Ning Ke trapped Burns' hands like dead dogs with a cable, then kicked him off the kayak, and then picked up the paddle and rowed. With the blessing of true energy, the kayak sailed like a speedboat to the harbor. At this time, the speed of the kayak is faster than Ning Ke's underwater dolphin swimming.
Burns woke up when he fell into the water, and he never dreamed that he had hit the vital assassination "target" with a sniper rifle an hour or two earlier, and was now rowing a kayak to tie him down in the water.
How could he not understand what was going on?!
From being inexplicably knocked unconscious to waking up from the kayak, to being tied up by the "target" he shot himself, he couldn't understand it, it was beyond his cognition, thinking that everything was in a dream, only the biting cold sea and the snow in the sky made him feel that all this was real.
The little kayak approached the shore and suddenly stopped.
"Tell me, who told you to assassinate me?" Ning Ke said in English as he kept Pentsti in the dinghy.
"I'm a professional killer, you can do whatever you want, right?"
Pence found that what he had experienced in the past two days seemed unnatural, and although he didn't understand who he had encountered, he knew that his career had been ended.
From the eyes of the young man in front of him, he sensed a shivering glow that frightened him in the depths of his soul.
The moment he saw the information about this person from headquarters yesterday, he had a vague feeling that this was the most dangerous mission. He had this hunch because the young man's eyes were so unusual.
The dinghy was not large, and now when he looked closely, the charm in the young man's eyes confirmed his premonition of danger. This young man's eyes were sharper than those of the great Spanish wizards he had ever seen, and they were still divine and profound.
Life and death have long been put aside for a professional killer, and he really doesn't know the details of the buyer. Everything is contacted by the headquarters and the buyer, one pays for the life, the other is responsible for arranging the execution, no matter how high his kill value is, he is only responsible for the assassination, that's all.
Ning Ke didn't want to delay time, those two Heavenly Pole cultivators were still competing for the "Loss Yuan Pill", maybe after a while, the person who couldn't grab the pill would find him.
He originally wanted to lock Pence's soul with the soul locking ring, and then slowly interrogated, and after thinking about it, he directly invaded Pence's soul with a stream of true qi and carried out the soul searching method.
Pence has been able to detect almost everything since he was remembered, and the amount of information is too great for Ning Ke to selectively absorb it now.
He pulled out a blank piece of jade, copied all the information he got from Pence's mind into it, and slowly combed and checked it when he had the chance.
While doing this, a flash suddenly appeared in his mind - could the wordless jade slip left by the fairy master in the gluttonous box be a powerful or powerful memory?!
"If I can see or transcribe the information on it, I will not only be able to learn a lot of secrets from it, but I will also be able to inherit a lot of exercises, spells, and so on......"
The memory in Pence's mind was forcibly copied by Ning Ke, which was bound to cause mental disorder, which meant that Pence would go crazy and become a walking corpse.
Ning Ke didn't know which English medical journal she had read: When the memory (magnetic) cells in a person's mind that are responsible for memory are affected by external magnetism or electric current, some memory cells will be freely displaced and leave their original positions, so that people's memories will be chaotic and their spirits will be divided......
For a professional killer like Pence who is for money and doesn't know how much innocent blood his hands are stained with, Ning Ke is quick to get rid of him.
As a professional killer, Pence can't say that he is unlucky when he meets Ning Ke, and death is part of the killer's job. The very fact that you use murder as a profession to obtain means of subsistence should be prepared to be killed by others.
Ning Ke searched and copied all of Burns' memories, discarding them on the kayak and leaving him to fend for himself.
He jumped into the sea and swam to shore......
Ning Ke returned to the capital, before dawn, and did not know Shen Tongjuan's address, so he went to Panjiayuan first, and took advantage of the dark sky to taste the taste of visiting the ghost market.
The sky was faint, and Ning Ke didn't get anything.
At this time, a pregnant woman who was five or six months pregnant and an elderly woman caught his attention. They had just arrived at the ghost market and wanted to sell a bead. A few people walked by, but none of them asked for the price.
Ning Ke approached and looked at the box in the pregnant woman's hand.
The box contains a very large pearl, the beads are in good condition, it is the kind of modern artificial breeding, it is worth 10,000 yuan at most; the box is made of red toon trees, it looks very good on the outside, the craftsmanship is not bad, it is also a modern product, it is worth 10,000 yuan at most.
Ning Ke inquired, this pregnant woman has been here for a few days, but she wants to sell an object worth only 20,000 yuan for 100,000 yuan, and she is still unwilling to buy it at a counteroffer, how can she sell it?
This item was also needed for Ning Ke, and both pearls and red toon wood could be used for alchemy, but this ruined the original intention of making this object. Alchemy pearls and red toon wood pharmacies can be bought at a fair price, not to mention that alchemy does not need pearls in such good condition, just pearls.
In such weather, taking out such an object and wanting to sell it for a large price must be something on the table.
Otherwise, why would a pregnant woman have to suffer such hardship?
"Sister, give me the beads. Ning Ke said and took out a neatly bundled 100,000 yuan from the storage ring and handed it to the pregnant woman.
"You didn't take a closer look at it, and you bought it?" The pregnant woman saw that Ning Ke didn't bargain, and paid directly, and there was no joy in selling the goods.
"Look, I like it. ”
"You, the adults in your family have allowed you to go to the ghost market to shop for things?......"
The pregnant woman saw that Ning Ke was also quite shabby, wearing a thin and torn down sweater.
In fact, Ning Ke's down sweater was bought in Qiantang, how can the winter clothes in the south be thicker than the winter clothes in the north? Moreover, Ning Ke's cultivation has reached the end of the prefecture level, and he has released some true qi a little, and he doesn't know what cold is at all?
"I'm the head of the house. Ning Ke smiled, took the pearl box and turned to leave.
The pregnant woman looked at Ning Ke's distant back a little melancholy, and the old woman beside her whispered, "I met a good Samaritan...... Let's go, the debtor is still at the door. ”
Ning Ke casually walked around, and the sky gradually brightened.
The ghost market still follows the old rules, and it was still a crowded market just now, but in the blink of an eye, those who sell and buy goods have quietly left, but the business stores in the market have opened one after another.
Ning Ke was a little hungry, he chose a store that sold breakfast and walked in. Seeing that most of the people were eating steamed buns and bean juice, they asked for a bowl of bean juice and a basket of steamed buns.
The taste of the buns is fundamentally different from that of Qiantang, it is salty and spicy, and he is not used to it. This reminded him of the crab roe buns in Suliulou on the shore of the West Lake, and then remembered Lin Lanlai.
"If I can refine the 'Qi' character pill, or inject a trace of true qi into the dantian acupoint like Mu An'er's cultivation so that people can cultivate, then I can bring Sister Lan back from the UK......
Somehow, he was a little sad, like a man who had been frustrated and was earning money to support his family, and he wanted to fall into the arms of a beloved woman and rest for a while, to soothe the tiredness and pain of his soul - in fact, his gunshot wound was healed while fleeing in the sea.
After drinking the first bite of bean juice, he almost spit it out, and the taste of the soy milk called "bean juice" in Beijing is too far from the soy milk in Qiantang.
This syrup, which is also made from soybeans, has a strange taste as if it has been fermented. He watched the other customers drink with relish, and a sense of jealousy felt in his heart.
The conversation between two older customers caught his attention......
