Li Shuidao left the west side of the Poison Dragon Ridge alone and soon came to the side of the Poison Dragon River.

The Poison Dragon River is even narrower than the Yunxi River, but the water is crystal clear, giving people a sense of purity.

Li Shuidao walked along the Poison Dragon River, and before he knew it, he had walked a distance of fifty miles.

It was about late in the evening.

A large stranded ship appeared in front of him.

The wooden hull of the ship had been eroded by the wind and rain of the years, and the ropes on the hull had been rotted and broken by the long exposure to the sun.

A large hole had been made in the belly of the ship, and even in the sun, it looked a little eerie.

The portholes in the hull were in tatters, and the steering wheels on deck had been mottled by time and sand.

Li Shuidao just observed from a distance, and did not dare to get too close.

Master Jinmian Langjun explained very clearly that the dark market can only be gone at night, and if you go during the day, you will definitely die.

Li Shuidao found a hidden place nearby and waited quietly for time to pass......

As the evening approached, several people dressed in black suddenly appeared on the riverbank.

They are dressed mysteriously, and everyone covers their faces.

Hiding in the bushes, Li Shuidao's heart moved, and he took out a rough bamboo board mask from the storage bag and put it on his head.

The bamboo mask is simple to make and looks very crude, but it reveals an eerie and eerie atmosphere.

Its surface is covered with bloodstains, as if it carries countless dying lives.

Nightfall......

It was completely dark

Without hesitation, several waiting monks walked into the large hole that had been broken by the shipwreck.

The entrance to the cave was even more eerie in the night, like a portal to the ghost realm.

There was a creepy aura in the darkness that made people shudder.

Li Shuidao waited for them all to enter the hole, and then cautiously entered the hole of the wreck.

Upon entering the cave, a long, dark passage appeared in front of him.

As he walked along the passage, he felt the darkness around him grow thicker and thicker, as if he had gone deep into an endless black hole.

However, just when Li Shuidao thought that he would never see the light again, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he came to a bustling market.

The market is filled with colorful lanterns, and bright flags are hung in every store.

The flags are painted with various patterns, including wine jugs, herbs, utensils, and more......

Each pattern represents a different commodity and industry.

This is the rumored dark market, if Li Shuidao guessed correctly, this should be the market privately set up by the Five Poisons Gate Law Enforcement Hall.

originally thought that the auditorium was going to clean up this market, but he didn't expect that Lan Huaying already knew where the dark market was, and he was not interested in this information at all.

I really don't know what the ultimate purpose of the auditorium is?

Li Shuidao, who was wearing a bamboo mask, looked at the dark market carefully, there were very few cultivators who came to the dark market, and there were more shops than customers......

Li Shuidao has to find Wulonglou first and find the master Jinmian Langjun.

Soon he came to a restaurant, this restaurant is three floors high, carved beams and painted buildings, antique, the beams have dragon spine coiled horizontally, the plaque of "Five Dragons Building" is hung outside the door, and the plaque is also inlaid with several night pearls.

This is the place!

Seeing this Five Dragons Tower, Li Shuidao hesitated in his heart, he knew that when he stepped into this building, his master Jinmian Langjun would definitely give him a task, this task may be extremely dangerous, but he had no choice, or this was already the best choice.

People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.

Li Shuidao has become a dispensable marginal figure in Lan Huaying, but here with the master Jinmian Langjun, he has changed from a dispensable marginal disciple to a senior brother entrusted with important tasks.

If you want to develop in a low-key manner, it is impossible in this five poison sect of "the strong are stronger, and the weak die".

If you want to endure it, retreat, and retreat, the family forces you, the door rules force you, and the master also forces you.

Either the active drop or the passive flop.

There is, of course, a third way!

It is to break away from the family, break away from the sect, cut off everything, do a loose cultivation outside the world, and leave without caring about anything.

But without the family and the Five Poisons Sect, can the outside world really be stable?

It's just a change of Shura......

If you want to be at ease, you must improve your cultivation and have stronger strength.

Eternal life is too far away, and now Li Shuidao only wants to have more options.

Li Shuidao stepped into the Five Dragons Tower, and immediately a guard immediately stopped him.

"Take off your mask before you enter!" The guard said with a grim face.

Li Shuidao took a closer look at the guard, this person's cultivation is not high, and he is not much different from himself, Li Shuidao does not care about this person, he obediently took off his mask, and the guard nodded and made way.

As soon as she entered the building, a young woman walked over and asked in a soft voice: "This fellow Daoist, come to our Wulong Tower, what do you want to drink?" ”

"I'm here to find someone."

The woman asked curiously, "Who are you looking for?" ”

Li Shuidao looked hesitant, he didn't know if he should reveal the name of the golden-faced Langjun.

At this moment, a tall figure dressed in black and wearing a grimace mask suddenly appeared behind the woman and said, "He's looking for me." ”

The woman immediately saluted and said, "Your Excellency." ”

Obviously, this person wearing a grimace mask has an extremely high status.

The grimace masked man said to Li Shuidao, "Follow me upstairs." ”

Li Shuidao heard that this voice was the voice of his master Jinmian Langjun, and he was overjoyed, and then followed the ghost-faced masked man upstairs.

They ascended the staircase, which was lined with red lanterns, creating a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.

Soon......

They came to a secret room on the top of the building. The room is furnished with a quaint table and several futons, and a huge picture scroll hangs on the wall.

He sat at the table and slowly took off his mask, it was the golden-faced Langjun, and he said very kindly: "You came earlier than the old man expected, are you in danger on the way?" ”

"Thank you for your concern, the journey was safe."

The golden-faced Langjun nodded and said, "That's good, how is the situation in the cave?" Zhang Yunlong, Zhang Yunhu, they are still honest, did they steal my spirit grass? ”

"Master rest assured, I have watched everything, I have to count every day, and there is not a single spiritual grass missing." Li Shuidao said with his fists clenched.

"Very good...... If you find out that they have any bad intentions, you can just punish them, even if they kill them, and the teacher will also carry them for you, and there will be no trouble, you just have to rest assured. The golden-faced Langjun said.

"During this time, you will stay in Wulong Building, and when the auction is over, you will return to the cave as soon as possible, worrying that if you are not there, Zhang Yunlong and Zhang Yunhu will take risks."

"Shizun asked me to come over, is it to participate in the auction?" Li Shuidao asked tentatively.

"You're smart, but there's no urgency in this matter, I'll take you to the dark market first." The golden-faced Langjun said with a kind face.

The two went downstairs together.

At this time, the golden-faced Langjun was wearing a mask, and Li Shuidao was wearing a strange bamboo plate mask.

"There are only about fifty shops in the dark market, and this place is actually hidden in a dilapidated secret realm, dark all year round, but fortunately, the aura is quite abundant, no matter who wants to enter and exit this place, they can only go through the hole in the belly of the ship, and that hole will only open at night, and it is impossible to enter and exit during the day anyway......," the golden face Langjun introduced as he walked.

"Look there." The golden-faced Langjun pointed to a shop with the word Tongbao hanging on it and said: "Then you are Tongbao Pavilion, a place dedicated to exchanging coins, it is inconvenient for the master to go with you as a guard, you can exchange it yourself." ”
