After returning to Sifang City, Lu Yao and his entourage were warmly welcomed.

Butterflye and Noland's matters relating to Yao Shen are kept strictly confidential. Therefore, apart from the gods and the apostles, the vast majority of the people in the Quartet do not know that the Norland side has become their own.

Most people believe that it was the corpse demon soldiers of the Niu Sansi team who fought with the enemy in Norland territory, and escaped back after a roundabout battle.

Lu Yao still covered his head with a hood as Ash usually did to avoid attracting attention.

But many residents still recognized him at a glance and greeted him warmly.

"Mr. Ash is back? I've heard that you've done a great job this time, which is amazing! ”

"Mr. Ash, I have a batch of fine wood here, if you need it, you can come and get it at any time, and I will give you the cheapest price."

"Mr. Ash, thank you for your help last time, these wild eggs were found by me in the wild, you can boil them and eat them."

……

Judging from everyone's attitude, the monster residents of Sifang City not only approve of the intelligent insects, but also have a pretty good reputation. For 100 years, everyone has come to see Ash as a part of the city.

When he has free time, Zhiworm will also give everyone the help he can, read books and explain, make and repair various tools, and is regarded as a well-known local inventor and scholar.

His job is to be a city hall clerk.

Sapiens lives in a small house not far from the town hall. It's boxy, made entirely of stone, and it's damp and cold, but the wooden beds, cabinets, and bookshelves inside are neat and clean, and you can see that they are often cleaned.

There were many books and parchment scrolls on the shelves, many of which had been turned over and softened. It can be seen that Zhiworm has been studying the writing, culture and history of the Yao people.

Lu Yao suddenly noticed that there was a clean white feather in the gap under the wooden door.

There is black lettering on the feathers.

He picked it up and looked at it.

It reads.

- The host is waiting for you.

Lu Yao couldn't tell what kind of text this was, in short, it became the information that came to mind at a glance, probably related to his godhead authority. It's a lot less troublesome.

Who is this messenger to the Homo sapiens?

Lu Yao entered detective mode.

He inspected the small room of the Homo sapiens.

The most valuable possession of the Wise Worm is the books on the shelves. In addition to that, it has three identical dark robes, two old backpacks, some rudimentary underwear, and odd pieces of wood stacked in the corners...... The four walls of the house belong to yes.

The person who left the feather should not want people to know that he has a private connection with the Wise Worm. And the meeting place is on the host road outside the city, which means that the other party is likely to be from Sifang City.

That's a little weird.

The people of the city have long been accustomed to the existence of the Homo sapiens, and regard it as a part of the city, and the Homo sapiens are also the clerks of the city hall, which belongs to the official staff.

Why do commenters make appointments to meet outside in this way?

Lu Yao's eyes sharpened.

There is a problem with the identity of the person who keeps the feathers.

He was a little excited for a moment.

I didn't expect that the first time I came to the Void World to go shopping, I could solve a case along the way, I really don't poke.

Lu Yao put away his feathers and went all the way out of the city to the east.

There are four roads in the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the Sifang City, and at the end of the east road is the passage of the third and fourth layers, which is also the jurisdiction where Niu Sansi was on duty, and the south and northwest correspond to the three ancient cracks leading to the fifth layer.

Lu Yao walked on the east road.

The roads here have been repurposed and widened, and they have become smooth and regular, and from time to time you can see the steam-drawn wagons belching through the middle of the road.

The steaming carriage retains the iron horse's head of the past, but it has been transformed into a raised horse's head relief on the rectangular steamer, which has the smell of a car logo.

The wheels of the carriage were so wide that they left clear rut marks on the ground when turned, and the body itself was not very stable, accompanied by the sound of swishing jets and metal rubbing.

Every time a horse-drawn carriage passed by, it would bring a loud noise that would last for a long time.

Lu Yao looked as he walked, and the Sifang City behind him was getting farther and farther away, getting closer and closer to the whirlpool-like black passage at the end.

The abyssal passage in the distance was like a small black hole, and he could see the clear wisps of space twisting above it, reminding him of the refraction distortion formed by the air at high temperatures.

As I passed by, a voice came from the side: "You're here?" ”

Lu Yao looked in the direction of the sound source.

Under a tree on the side of the road on the left, a man of medium stature sits against him. He was dressed in a crumpled linen coat with a smile on his face, and was probably about thirty years old.

Lu Yao looked at the other party's data panel.

This is an [Abyss Nomad], level LV4, named Pitts, and his only ability is [Trade].

"Mr. Ash, I heard that you have become a hero this time, congratulations."

Pitz stood up, patted the dust on his body, and bowed slightly: "The reason why I am in such a hurry to deliver the letter to you is because the scalpers are becoming more and more rampant, and the phenomenon of shoddy people is far more than in the past." In order to better facilitate the trade, the Duke hopes to establish trade relations with the four countries in a formal way. ”

"Your identity is also very important now, if you have you to talk to us, we will be much smoother."

"The Duke also said that if you feel unsatisfactory here, you are always welcome to go to Ertang Garan."

Lu Yaoxin said good guy.

The Wise Worm is quite popular, not only has something to do with Norland, but the Blackheart Duke is also throwing an olive branch on his side.

However, Lu Yao had already figured out a way on the way.

Don't try to test each other, that's not what he's good at, and it's troublesome to mess around.

Straight punches straight ahead!

This punch, just ask if you can take it.

"Since it's a formal cooperation, then I'll also formally ask. What do you want, what can you give us? ”

Lu Yao said.

This rhetorical question made the other party stunned for a moment.

Immediately Pitz thought for a moment and said cautiously and seriously: "We will provide a large number of all-round stones with guaranteed quality and give the best price on the market in the four countries. With the production of Ertang Garan, these high-quality all-round stones are very high-quality strategic resources, whether they are used for crafting items or for combat consumption. ”

"We hope that the Quartet will officially take a stand and clean up those second-way dealers who are privately peddling everywhere in the name of Ertang Garan, and most of these traders are scammers, and their existence is not only a fraud to you, but also a damage to the credibility of Ertang Garan."

"Especially the Jinpan merchant who belongs to the demigod Puxi. They discounted the two halls of Garan, the mage tower, and the pretense of the stables everywhere, and resold counterfeit goods at high prices everywhere, and the bad trading environment on the fifth floor can be said to be created by them......"

Lu Yaoxin said that the taste was not right.

I thought there was an inner ghost.

As a result, you tell me it's a multinational syndicate scam?

"In fact, before that, many Jinpan merchants lied that they were from the Sifang Country, and they were caravans from the Sifang Country to the fifth layer, selling garlic, potatoes, grapes, sweet potatoes, and mint...... Of course, those goods are mixed with real and fake. ”

Pitz smiled wryly: "If you hadn't officially entered the fifth layer this time, their tricks might have fooled a lot of people." ”

Lu Yao was furious.

Is there still a royal law?

Is there still a law?

What is the name of this leader? Puxi, must be severely punished!

But Lu Yao quickly calmed down again.

That's not right.

The demigods of the fifth layer are not stupid, how can they be so deceived by this Puxi?

Regarding this, Pitz explained: "Although Puxi's strength is sparse and ordinary among the fifth-layer demigods, he specifically targets ordinary people and low-level transcendents. He has a very special ability called the [Golden Plate Ritual]. ”

"This ability can be used to share the power of demagogy with his Jinpan merchants through rituals, and both ordinary and transcendent beings will be affected to some extent."

At the same time, Puxi will also use various means to deliberately lend props or various resources, so that the borrower can pledge his life and freedom, and then let them serve him and become his gold plate merchant...... Puxi has been secretly infiltrating various forces all year round, and it is very tricky to deal with. ”

"The Duke has been chasing Puxi, but he has no territory, he has been wandering around for a long time, and he will flee if he finds something wrong. The Duke hopes to get the formal cooperation of the Quartet this time, on the one hand, to establish a long-term formal trade, and on the other hand, to boycott and arrest Puxi ......"

Lu Yao's consciousness entered the backstage of the world and began to look for information about this Puxi.

As a result, after a check, it was found that there was no such person.

There is no such demigod in the fifth layer.

Is it a pseudonym?

Lu Yao asked Pitz again.

The abyssal wanderer pondered for a moment: "I heard that Puxi seems to have entered the fifth layer through the gap, and I really haven't heard of his deeds in the past. ”

"As far as we know, Puxi has been around for about 300 years. He kept spinning two golden dice in his hand, a thick robe that covered his body, a cane that looked like a pickaxe, a smooth brass mask with no facial features on his face, and a large bag on his back, on which there was a gold wheel. ”

"Puxi also initially sold and bought items from the demigods, and the most sold was golden dice, and he also bought the fire of faith...... I don't know much more, he's a rather mysterious demigod. ”

"A lot of people have connected with him because of the Golden Plate Ceremony, and even if they don't have to meet him, they can communicate with him through the ceremony and buy and sell with him."

Lu Yao captured the keyword.

Golden dice, golden wheel.

These two gold series props, Lu Yao was too impressed.

From the early days of his entry into the simulator, he has seen the figure of golden dice everywhere, and this item itself has the attributes of gambling and fraud.

It seems that Puxi has some kind of connection with the Golden Dice series of items.

Lu Yao decided to take action personally and arrest Puxi, the leader of the mega fraud gang.

We must find out the reason and give the people of the abyss a sunny day!
