Flags are displayed, streamers are fluttering, people are boiling, and they are bustling.

Because of the auction, there were more than twice as many people walking on Kuroki Paddle Street as in the past. It's just that under the bright sun, Beihai City looks a little lazy in the afternoon. The dancers and singers in the attic were all half-squinted, leaning on the window railing, looking at the crowd of people coming and going, and there was no interest in greeting them.

So many people poured into Beihai City from all over the world, making all the inns and inns of the Red Mansion Tavern overcrowded. When those shopkeepers made a lot of money, they suffered from the guys who worked and did the chores and the singers who took care of people.

Day and night, singing and dancing day and night, even those who are beaten with iron will have a time when they are tired. It's just that even though they are physically and mentally exhausted, in order to work, in order not to be beaten and scolded, they still have to fight their spirits and maintain a false smile anytime and anywhere.

Poetry: In October, the North Sea is full of flowers, and there is no day without joy. The sound of the piano was still there last night, and the dance is back today. The autumn breeze is warm on the pillow, and the pipa strings say acacia. The candlestick wax in front of the bed is exhausted, and the dream wakes up alone by the moon. I plan to get drunk on grievances, and I sing about wine, and I have no taste for it. It's only because the wanderer's true love is short, and he returns passers-by when he goes out of the pavilion.

Ignoring the vanity and prosperity of those streets, Yang Rui hid his body under a black cloak and quickly crossed several streets, followed the note left by the demon scorpion old man Gui Xinhai in the hands of the corpse, and came to the Giant's Rib Tavern on time, and found an inconspicuous corner to sit down.

The tavern was full of people, and the wine glasses were as lively as ever. Ordering a glass of grape juice at random, the boy's eyes swept back and forth in the fire-lit cellar. Carefully searched for the hunchbacked figure.

It didn't take long to see the hunchbacked, bald, gloomy old man at the entrance. The young man just wanted to step forward to say hello, but when he saw several unfamiliar warriors in strong armor behind him, he immediately sat back and continued to observe.

Those people seem to be on the same path as the old scorpion, and they all have guys with them. All of them have blazing eyes, exposed ferocity, strong physique, and light steps, and obviously have some foundation. Looking around, it seems that he is looking for someone.

"You're not looking for me, are you?" the boy muttered to himself. I don't know what the old man of the demon scorpion is doing.

The group looked at the entrance for a while, then began to disperse, holding a portrait in their hands, and searched around. The boy glanced at the figure in the portrait. Boy. Isn't that who he is? Dare to return to Xinhai, that guy will ask himself here. It's someone who brought him to arrest him!

The young man was furious in his heart, and he was just thinking about countermeasures, but he turned his head and thought again. Don't say that the old man of the demon scorpion doesn't have the guts, just say that he has a request for me now, and he won't fall into the well like this. There must be something hidden in this!

"Maybe it's because of the secrecy behind this matter that the old man of the demon scorpion has not been willing to show up until now. ”

Thinking of this, the young man calmed down and carefully observed the only old man who had no movement. With a dark smile on his face, he leaned against a wall at the entrance and looked at it for a while, then found a table and sat down.

He called all his companions, who were looking for someone, and called the bartender to serve the food and drink, and began to drink. After a while, those powerful warriors seemed to be drunk and dizzy, and began to babble there, scratching around, as if they were trapped in a drunken dream.

Seeing that the time was ripe, the old man ordered two more barrels of rum and placed them on the table, and he dodged away from the wine table, went around the hut and turned back. When he came back, he also wore a black cloak on his body, and Gui Xinhai did not walk to his companion's wine table, but walked directly towards the young man!

The young man was taken aback, he didn't know how the old man of the demon scorpion knew his position so well, but he didn't panic, and sat quietly in the corner, watching Gui Xinhai quietly sit next to him.

"Hehe, don't you come here okay?" said the old man in a low voice.

"Gui Lao, how did you know that I was here?" the young man asked curiously.

The old man of the demon scorpion smiled proudly when he heard this, and released a small blue-black poisonous scorpion from his sleeve, and said, "This is the scorpion that I raised with a special poison, and it is the most sensitive to the smell of that poison......

"You smeared poison on that note!?" said the young man with a sudden realization, thinking that this old man of the demon scorpion was really careful enough, and he was also invulnerable to poison, if someone else touched that note, he would definitely be poisoned and die.

The old man nodded and continued: "I don't have much time, to make a long story short, Mu Shanshan and Gong Qing'er who you asked me to find already have news, and I also know who is fighting with you for the broken copper piece and killing Old Man Sun." ”

"Who is it?" the boy asked.

"You have just arrived in Beihai City, and you may not know that although the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce controls most of the industry in Beihai City, this black street is the territory of the Naval War Gang. The old man looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he whispered.

"Haven't you heard of the Naval Gang......" The young man said helplessly, taking a sip of grape juice. For a young man who came out of the desert just now, there are really not many gangs in this world who know the power of the gangs.

"Tsk, this Naval War Gang is a branch of the famous underworld organization Fengyun Society in the Yuan Cang Realm. The strength of this Fengyun Society is not much worse than that of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, but it is all based on the foundation of robbers. The old man smiled darkly and explained.

"The subordinates of the Naval War Gang gambled and lent money in Beihai City, forced to buy and sell, cheated and abducted, and trafficked human beings. On this Black Paddle Street, except for this Giant's Rib Tavern, the rest of the Red Mansion and the wine shop have to pay them protection money. ”

"The leader of the Naval War Gang is called Zhe Yiping, and he is known as the Three Deadly Swords. It is said that in the early years, when he grabbed land in Beihai City, no one could escape his three-move sword technique, only Xu Tianjiu and him had a battle in a hurry, regardless of victory or defeat. ”

Later, the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce acquired most of the industries in Beihai City with its strong financial resources and connections, and the Naval War Gang also firmly controlled the power of the Black Street, and the well water on both sides did not interfere with the river water, and it was safe and sound all these years. ”

The young man listened quietly, thinking that this old man of the demon scorpion really knew a lot, it seemed that he had not been in this dark street in his early years, and pointed to a few warriors in the distance who came with him and said, "Those warriors ......"

"Hey, hey. They are the men of the Naval Gang, but now they are under my jurisdiction. The old man smiled and said gloomily, "This will make them all drugged by me, don't worry." ”

"Then you ......" The boy was a little puzzled.

The old man looked at the young man like that, touched his beard and explained: "In the early years, I helped Zhe Yiping solve some opponents and let him sit in today's position, so he was polite to me, hehe." ”

"Where have you been all this time?" the boy asked.

"I'm not looking into Mu Shanshan and Gong Qing'er's business. The old man said: "But Zheyi is suspicious by nature, and in order to gain his trust, I went out of the city some time ago to help him do something for free." ”

"You helped them kill Old Man Sun!?" the young man's eyes suddenly flashed. Staring at the old man of the demon scorpion, he asked.

The old man had always been afraid of this young man. Shocked when he heard this, he quickly shook his head and said: "When I came back from my errands, I happened to meet the old man Sun who had been tortured to death by them. So I thought of a way to send his body to the courtyard where the snake brother of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce lived. ”

"And what did you do out there?" the boy asked curiously.

"Tsk. What could I do but poison and kill people. The old man said with a little intoxication, "If you're interested." I'll tell you about it later. But now is not the time to talk about that. ”

"Ahem...... No need......" The young man coughed dryly, and also felt that he had asked a little too much, so he returned to the topic and asked, "Where are Mu Shanshan and Gong Qing'er now?"

"Hmm. They turned out to be hostages placed here by Gong Weihang. Now that the palace guards have been killed by us, Na Zhe Yiping has been treacherous, and plans to wash them up and sell them at this dark auction to make a big profit!" said the old man of the scorpion.

"In addition, I heard that the copper pieces you need, Zhe Yiping did everything possible to find them in order to auction them at that auction with a piece of information related to them. I just wanted to talk to you about it. ”

The boy smiled and nodded, "That's interesting, but when will the Dark Auction be held?"

The old man replied, "In order to maximize profits, the Naval War Gang has arranged the dark auction to be held three days before the auction of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, that is, tomorrow!"

"So fast!" the young man exclaimed, in the past half a month, he had devoted himself to cultivation, but he had almost forgotten that time, but in his hurry, it was difficult to deal with the naval gang hiding in the shadows.

"Hey, little brother, don't panic. The old man of the demon scorpion said with a dark smile: "I have already arranged this matter, tomorrow you go to the Wanhua Building in the Black Street to show this token, and someone will take you into the venue of the dark auction." ”

As he spoke, the old man quietly handed a brown token into the young man's hand. Nagui Xinhai had already poisoned the original owner of this token. The boy thought to himself, if he wasn't an insider, who would have thought that the dark auction would be held in a red mansion?

Compared to the vicious methods, it is estimated that none of those people in the Naval Gang are the opponents of this old man of the demon scorpion. It can really be said that one thing drops one thing, and the poison fights poison with poison, and the rats hiding in the shadows have to ask this old poisonous scorpion to help solve it!

Thinking about it, the young man suddenly thought of something, and asked sideways: "Zhe Yiping and his subordinates have my portrait there, what should I do after I go in?"

The old man of the demon scorpion smiled and said: "The rules of the dark auction are that you don't recognize people by recognizing cards. Attendees don't have to reveal their identity, you don't have to be masked and no one will come to inspect it, and as long as you can afford the price, you can take the lot. ”

Then he handed a letter to the young man and said: "For the sake of insurance, this time I have to rely on the relationship between Shi and Chan to borrow some people from the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce." After you go back, quickly find Xu Tianjiu and show him this letter, and then we will cooperate with the outside world and rob the auction!"

The young man was silent on the surface, but in his heart he said that this old man of the demon scorpion was really vicious, and he actually wanted to eat black!

Fortunately, this old poison is doing things for himself, otherwise he would really have a headache.

However, the young man admired Gui Xinhai's plan, put away the letter and token, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a grin: "Okay, this time we will have a pot!"

(If you want to know what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.) (To be continued......)
