Chapter 192: The Lowest Price
"Huh? What do you think? Tsurumi Hatsukumo asked.
Consciousness space, Shen Yi originally wanted to nod, although the trafficker was wearing a mask on his face and couldn't see what he looked like, but he only had to remember the clothes he was wearing, and it was not difficult to follow the other party and take the opportunity.
But after thinking about it for a while, reason still prevailed, and the size of those cages couldn't enter the tunnel entrance of the ghost market at all, so it was not difficult to see that those girls had been locked in cages and prepared in advance.
If there is a demand, there will be a market, and this kind of thing should be solved from the root, and killing that trafficker will cure the symptoms rather than the root cause, and there will be the next trafficker, which may not be a good thing for those girls who are locked up, and the appearance of the next trafficker may even make their situation worse.
It is impossible for himself and the old witch to make a haunted ghost city to save people, after all, they are all mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect themselves.
"Forget it."
"Huh?"
"I said forget it, it's useless to kill the traffickers, and I can't save them."
"Okay, listen to you." Tsurumi Hatsukumo shook his head and said anything more, and randomly found a booth where no one was there, took out the box from the storage space and sat down.
The first time she set up a stall, she had no experience at all, and she couldn't pull her face to shout everywhere, so she could only sit and wait for the guests to come to the door by themselves.
Looking at her perspective motionless, Shen Yi was dumbfounded.
"What are you doing here?"
"Huh? What didn't I do? ”
"Aren't you here to sell pills?"
"I ...... I'm selling, huh? ”
"It's not...... That's how you do business, huh? ”
"So what can I do?"
"You're so bad that people know you're here to do business, right?"
"Uh......" Speaking of this, Tsuru saw that Chuyun was speechless, so she had to get up and spread a layer of red cloth on the bare stall, she originally wanted to copy other people's stalls in the same way, but all she could sell on her was the Yunbeast Pill, and she felt a little cold, she simply didn't let go of anything, which was a bit rotten.
"Okay, I've got you!"
"I ...... Okay, okay, I got it, what if someone asks? ”
"If you can sell it, you're a ghost."
"......" she looked left and right, and finally gave up, before she was a street pill vendor, she always picked people in places with few people to ask, but now there are a lot of people in this ghost market, and when she meets someone, she asks, "Do you want to contain beast pills?" "She's so embarrassed.
"Don't talk about it."
"I don't think you want your flower hairpin."
She froze.
Flower hairpin?
How can you not get back what your mother left for herself?
"I ...... I'll get it back, wait a little while, it's really not good, I'll go around and ask, okay? ”
"Is it okay, what's the use of me saying yes? Anyway, the flower hairpin is your ......" Shen Yi was stunned before he finished speaking, no why, just because there were people coming to the stall.
"What is this, damn it!"
“……”
The person who came was a man dressed in purple, with a bead chain in his hand, a white mask of the same style on his face, and four retinues behind him, who looked like they were from a large family.
In addition, his voice is very young when he hears it, and it may not be much different from Tsurumi Mingbei.
"What are you selling?"
Tsurumi Chuyun raised his head and came to his senses, but he still said in a calm voice: "Selling pills." ”
"Huh? What kind of pills are sold? ”
"Only sell the Beast Pill."
"Oh, I see." The man in purple nodded in response, but looking at his movements, it seemed that he had been disappointed.
"I can actually meet a person who sells the Yun Beast Pill, interesting, how much do you sell for this Yun Beast Pill?"
Seeing that Hatsuyun was still calm, Tsuru replied, "Eighteen taels." ”
"Hmph."
When the other party heard this number, he snorted twice and left with his entourage, not bothering to bargain.
Tsurumi Hatsuun sighed, looking at this person's back and feeling a little disappointed, but the arrival of the guest so soon made her suddenly confident again, and made up her mind to keep the stall.
Since the guests will come to the door by themselves, what are they going to look for?
"I knew it." Shen Yi also hummed in the consciousness space when he saw this scene,
“……”
"Little girl who sells pills, hurry up and move, if you can't sell this pill tonight, you'll be hungry."
"You're annoying! Ignore you. ”
"Okay, okay, the emperor is not in a hurry, what is the eunuch anxious about?"
"Huh?" Tsuru was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you a eunuch?" ”
"I ...... on a horse"
"I was wrong, ...... master"
“……”
In the gambling house, the entourage crowded in the crowd looked at the purple-clothed man in front of them helplessly.
"What are you stunned about? Hurry up and take out all the valuable things on your body, how many times do you want me to say it? ”
Under pressure, several entourages could only hand over all the money they carried, and scattered together a dozen taels of silver, the other party grabbed it, and threw it all on the gambling table in the next second, and shouted: "I bet small!" ”
Many people around looked at him, and the corner of the dealer's mouth in the middle of the gambling table was even more crooked, and when he turned his head to see that the others had also pressed their chips, he reached out and opened the dice Gu in front of him.
"Six-four-four, big!"
Sure enough, it was another loss.
It's only been two quarters of an hour, and more than a hundred taels of silver have been lost, and the face of the man in purple under the mask can't help but twist a little, obviously he had good luck at the beginning...... He looked back and wanted to ask for it from a few of his retinue, but where did they still have the money?
One by one, they were sad, and they were scolding their mothers in their hearts.
The young master of his own family obviously has thousands of taels of silver on him, and these twenty taels of silver are not enough for gambling money, and he has to pay for those who are subordinates.
It's a brute!
Seeing that several entourages hesitated for a long time, the man in purple was about to threaten when he opened his mouth, but at this time, one of the entourages seemed to see something, and at the same time he was surprised and had a touch of joy on his face.
"Young master, look, isn't that Mao Yang's person." The man stretched out his hand and pointed to a group of people not far away.
The others were overjoyed when they saw this.
"Young master, the person who is absolutely Mao Yang, isn't the auction over?"
"Yes, I'm afraid the second master is already waiting for the young master."
The man in purple was also stunned for a moment, and reacted, where do you still have the mind to gamble?
hurriedly walked to the opposite side with his entourage, shouting to the entourage behind him as he walked, with a strong threat in his tone.
"I'll see my dad later, no one is allowed to say what happened just now, do you know?"
How dare those followers say anything? The head of the dot is faster than the other.
"Knowing the young master, we won't say anything."
"What luck today!"
With a flick of his hand, the man in purple quickened his pace, leading the person almost rampantly through the entire gambling house and towards a spiral staircase.
But before he finished the steps, the old man in white who came to him stopped him.
"Fourth Uncle Bing."
"Gift, the second master is looking for you."
"Got it, I'm going to find my dad."
Facing the old man in white, the young master in purple had a humble look on his face, and without waiting for the other party to respond, he led people forward and came all the way to the auction on the second floor.
And by the guardrail in front of the entrance of the auction hall, a man wearing a black mask with a kind of coercion on his body had been waiting for a long time, and when he noticed that the other party was approaching, he turned his head suddenly, and the body of the man in purple stiffened with fright at a glance.
"Daddy...... I'm coming. Song Enci stammered such a sentence, with a fear in his tone that was difficult to ignore.
There is only one person who has beaten him in this life, and that is his father, who is serving with a stick every now and then.
I can't remember how many times, probably ...... The head of the family is his own father, right?
The man's eyes looked at him for a while, then he turned the jade wrench on his thumb and asked flatly: "The old man asked you to wait for me here before the auction started, where did you go?" ”
"Dad, I have something to say, it's too boring to wait for your old man here, so I want to go down and walk around."
"Didn't cause trouble?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Four Fingers just sent someone to tell me what you just did, so it's best to be honest."
"Dad, you're kidding, since the auction began, I haven't seen four fingers at all."
"Really?" Looking away from Song Enci, he looked at the four attendants who followed behind him.
They reacted quickly, and immediately said: "Second master, the young master is telling the truth, he really felt bored and wanted to go around and take a look, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary?" ”
The ......man was silent for a while, looking at his own son's gaze with deep suspicion, but he had no evidence, so he could only nod.
"I'll believe you once."
"Thank you, Dad." Song Enci shouted, relieved in his heart, and saw that his father had taken someone away, so he hurriedly followed, looking like a good baby.
As he walked down the stairs, the majestic-looking man asked Ju casually, "Tell me, what did you see below?" ”
"It's nothing, I saw someone selling a sword sealed in jade in the market, I heard the vendor say that it was left over from the previous generation of sword gods, and there was a gourd, according to people, it contained the Yuan of the Heavenly Moment, which was stolen from the palace by the thief Mo Yang, but these are all deceptions, and the child will naturally not be fooled."
"It's good to know."
"By the way, Dad, I also met a woman who sells pills, but only sells Beast Pills."
“…… Wait, what did you just say? ”
The air suddenly froze, and the man's eyes suddenly narrowed, looking at Song Enci, and it was not difficult to imagine that under the mask was his face that had become more serious than before.
Song Enci was a little puzzled: "What's the matter, Dad?" ”
"Someone sells the Beast Pill in the ghost market?"
"yes, it's cheaper than outside."
"How much does she sell?"
"Eighteen taels of silver each."
Song Enci looked at his father and was a little puzzled at first, but soon he realized something, and his eyes widened.
"Dad, that girl won't be ......"
"Second Old Master ......"
The man raised his hand, interrupted the old man in white who was about to speak, and said to Song Enci very quickly: "Enci, where is the woman who sold the Beast Pill?" Take me with you, and don't let anyone else take the lead. ”
"Dad, come with me."
Song Enci didn't dare to delay, trotted downstairs with his father, and rushed into the market again.
……
At the same time, on the side of Tsurumi Chuyun, since Song Enci took people away, no one has come to patronize it.
Guarding the stall also requires patience, and after a while, she took out an anonymous book and watched it, but she hadn't closed her eyes for three days, so her consciousness became drowsy when she looked at it.
"Old witch, if you don't get up and ask your spiritual weapon again, it will change hands!"
"How long has it been?"
"Half a ...... Hours, right? Shen Yi was a little unsure, he didn't have a watch or mobile phone now.
"It's still early, I'll sleep for a while, and then you wake me up."
"Whatever you want." Hearing Shen Yi's voice, Tsurumi Chuyun's heart relaxed slightly, closed the book in his hand, and closed his eyes against the pillar on the side with his little head tilted.
And Shen Yi himself used his claws to hook the red filament that had just been born from the god platform, watching it fly around with his own teasing, and swallowed it with his last mouth.
Noting the old witch's dark perspective, he shook his head, too lazy to say anything.
If the city is dispersed on the fifth watch, it will be early at that time, and it will not be a big deal to let this old witch sleep for a while.
After teasing the two red and yellow filaments and couldn't help but eat them, he took another look at the inside of the shrine, and planned to digest some red gas first, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the voice of a middle-aged man, full of magnetism and stability.
"What is this for sale?"
Shen Yi was stunned, this voice was very close, obviously coming from the old witch.
Reacting, he immediately shouted: "Old witch! Guests are coming! Wake up! ”
"Old witch!"
Shen Yi almost roared, and with the loudest voice, he woke up Tsurumi Hatsuun in one fell swoop.
"Huh? ......" thought she had overslept and was about to ask the other party, but as soon as she opened her eyes, she immediately sat up straight.
As she opened her eyes, Shen Yi also saw the light again, and saw clearly the guests in front of the stall, there were four people, among them, the man with a black mask standing at the front was extraordinary, and he was not an ordinary person from the feeling, and in addition to him, there was an old man dressed in white and with a rickety body and two other people who looked like family guests.
"Do you have anything they say?"
"They just asked you what you were selling."
"......" pondered for a while, and Tsurumi Chuyun forcibly cheered up, and said in a calm voice as he did before facing Song Enci: "I sell pills here." ”
"Huh?" The man standing in front of the stall had a surprised look on his face, "You sell pills in the ghost market?" ”
"Yes, I......
The pure black mask matched the man's dark eyes, making people see blurred, affecting judgment, his voice was too steady, and he was a little flustered when he saw Chuyun, and he subconsciously wanted to explain the "reason" of selling the Yun Beast Pill, but as soon as she said a word, she reacted.
People don't ask themselves, why do you explain so much?
Unless she leaves Ju'a City tomorrow and never enters the ghost market again, otherwise the other party will be completely sure that she is an alchemist when she sees her again, so she changed her words and said, "...... There is only the Yun Beast Pill here, and nothing else. ”
After speaking, she stabilized her mind and looked directly into the other party's eyes, anyway, the pause just now seemed a little weird, as if she was hiding something, in order not to make herself look like a thief, she could only do this.
But the man didn't seem to see anything, and turned to look at the old man in white behind him, and the other party also smiled.
"See what I do? Aren't you worried that the Beast Pill in the Dantang has been sold out? Now there is a Yun Beast Pill here, you can buy it for those juniors, I am old, or it will not be long before there will be wrinkles on my body, and I will not need it. ”
"That's what you said?"
"Hmph, it's not the old man's money that was spent."
I didn't know what the expression of the man's mask was, but turning his head, he asked Tsurumi Hatsuun, "How many Beast Pills do you have here?" ”
"Only fifty-two."
"How much do you sell?"
"Eighteen taels."
"This ......"
"Sixteen taels is fine, this is the lowest price." (End of chapter)
