Chapter 134 Dark Market

As Jiang Han expected, the secret room was already full at this time.

Many unfamiliar faces were meditating cross-legged in the hall of the underground secret room, and even if Jiang Han and the others were brought in, they didn't attract too many people's attention.

It's as if this kind of scene has happened many times, and these people have become numb.

"Master!" Jiang Han had just stood still, and a figure had already squeezed through the crowd to greet him, who would it be if it wasn't Jin Musheng.

At this time, he was already no longer what he used to be, and when Jiang Han left, he had just been promoted to the Enlightenment Stage.

And now, after a period of sedimentation, the whole person has been reborn, and no matter how mentally he looks, he is a lot more refreshed.

When Jin Musheng saw Jiang Han again, he was naturally quite excited, and hurriedly introduced Jiang Han and the others into Luo Lianxue's exclusive secret room.

It was only at this time that everyone knew why Jiang Han said that Luo Lianxue had already made arrangements before.

With this secret room, even if the entire wooden ghost city is turned upside down, their safety will definitely not be threatened in any way.

And after the chaos, there is a chance to make a fortune, if the luck is a little better, it is not impossible to reach the sky in one step.

After serving tea and snacks to everyone, Jin Musheng told the story of what happened in the wooden ghost city during this time.

As Elder Liu said before, the problem lies with the new forces.

After the gambling game of the original auction ended, under the supervision of the city lord, the process of handing over the old and new forces was quite smooth.

Although everyone knows that the new forces are not good, making such a big move is definitely not just to swallow some old shops.

But no one expected that they would be so impatient.

The acceptance of the old and new shops here is still ongoing, and the people of the new forces over there have already infiltrated the wooden ghost town and begun to forcibly seize and drive away some small shops in decent locations.

The key point is that these actions are not happening in private, but in broad daylight, in the open.

Jin Musheng himself experienced it once, when he was carrying out Jiang Han's arrangement and talking to a shop owner about the acquisition.

At this time, four or five foundation building periods rushed in and auctioned a hundred spirit stones to buy this shop.

Although the location of this shop is not as good as Tianyin Pavilion, the area is larger than that of Tianyin Pavilion, and it is also three stories high.

The offer given by Jin Musheng was a 100,000-level medium-grade spirit stone, and the boss was hesitating.

At this time, these foundation building periods cost a hundred spirit stones to buy, and Jin Musheng and the owner of the shop felt that they had met a fool.

So he didn't talk nonsense, and directly asked the guy to kick a few people out.

didn't wait for Jin Musheng and the shop owner to go back to the house and sit down, just listen to the thump and thump parasitic sound.

But it was those guys who were struggling with people, all of whom flew back upside down, including the existence of an Enlightenment Period.

Next, Jin Musheng saw a scene that stunned him.

Just before they met, they walked in after ten spiritual periods, and said that the people in the shop had injured their brother and wanted to claim 100,000 spirit stones.

After the owner of the store refused, ten people took action without scruples, and swept away all the goods in the entire store, even with the boss's friends, all of them were injured.

At first, Jin Musheng was still a little scared, worried that no one would suspect him, and felt that he was acting in partnership with those who did it.

But after a little inquiry, Jin Musheng knew that he was too worried.

Because of the same plot, it is being played out in many places in the wooden ghost town.

During the foundation building period, he bought a shop at a low price, and after being driven away, he changed to the spiritual period to smash and rob.

For a while, the people were panicked, and the gate of the City Lord's Mansion was almost broken by the people who came to avenge their grievances.

Later, it was found out that these troublemakers belonged to different sects and families, but they were all from the camp of the new forces.

The agent of the new forces also readily admitted the matter.

The reason they gave was that the current wooden ghost city was mixed with dragons and snakes, which was not conducive to development, and they purposefully expelled a group of people to leave, in order to better build the wooden ghost town.

As long as the city lord turned a blind eye, they promised to double the tax revenue of the wooden ghost city after a year.

But the city lord is not a fool, so naturally it is impossible to be prevaricated by this reason.

Doubling the tax or not not for the time being, according to this method, it is two words whether the wooden ghost town will be his or not a year later.

So a big war broke out.

Tang Guli personally took action, and in one day, he slaughtered more than 70 people in the Enlightenment Period, more than 200 people in the Foundation Building Period, and countless people were seriously injured.

This is still the reason why Tanggul is open, otherwise, under the operation of the Wood Ghost City Array, those people of the new forces will not have any chance to escape at all.

"More than seventy Enlightenment Periods have all been killed!" When everyone heard this, they only felt a chill in their necks.

Enlightenment, that is the core strength of a sect.

The loss of more than seventy yuan, even if it is distributed to all the families and sects of the new forces, is a loss that they cannot bear.

In addition, with more than 200 foundation building periods, these are the future of the sect.

This hatred, so to speak, has reached the point of never dying.

"The city lord of this wooden ghost city, what is the way to come from!" Ouyang Qingling was confused when he heard it, but he didn't want to plan Jin Musheng's words.

At this time, I finally found an opportunity, and immediately raised the doubts in my heart.

It takes courage to kill someone, not to mention that killing so many people is basically not much different from declaring war.

Although the wooden ghost city relied on the protection of the Qingyun Sect before, it did not allow any Qingyun Sect's forces to infiltrate it, which was very mysterious.

The location of the wooden ghost city is very sensitive, and it belongs to the outermost part of the protection range of the Qingyun Sect, and there is a certain overlap with the protection range of the other two sects.

The Qingyun Sect itself was weak, so naturally it didn't want to spend too much energy on this kind of thing and cause unnecessary trouble.

So he acquiesced to the behavior of the wooden ghost city, and the pitiful tax paid by the wooden ghost city every year should be a windfall.

With this reason, many of the tasks of the Qingyun Sect naturally do not have the slightest connection with the Wood Ghost City.

Even Jiang Han, if he hadn't seen the sign of the wooden ghost city in the wooden house where he gathered, he wouldn't have been able to come here.

Thinking of this, Jiang Han had a vague feeling in his heart, thinking that it was Luo Lianxue who had calculated everything and deliberately put a map there to lure him over.

As for the other Qingyun Sect disciples, their understanding of the Wood Ghost City was even less pitiful.

"That's a long story!" Jin Musheng is a native of Wood Ghost Town, and he used to make a living by selling gossip and leading the way.

He knew a lot about the many half-truths and half-truths of the Qingyun Sect.

"The city lord of the wooden ghost city ......" said this, Jin Musheng deliberately lowered his deep meaning: "It is said that up to now, there are no more than five people who have seen his real body!"

"That's impossible!" When a sentence came out, Ouyang Qingling and the others immediately retorted: "He is the lord of a city, doesn't he ever show his face, this is too unreasonable!"

When Jiang Han heard this, he was also a little curious.

The city lord is no better than others, if there is an elder with a certain position in the wooden ghost city, who hides in the shadows all day long, and does not show his face, Jiang Han can still understand.

But the lord of a city has the effect of calming people's hearts and suppressing luck.

Even if he disdains to show his head and do some political catwalks, it would be too exaggerated to say that only a few people have seen him.

Not to mention what the residents of the city think, even those who are eyeing the wooden ghost city are probably not able to hold their temper.

"I'm not exaggerating!" Jin Musheng had already expected everyone's reaction.

If he was chatting with others, he might still sell Guanzi, but Jiang Han was here, so he naturally didn't dare to raise those vain things. Instead, he continued: "I was born in the Wooden Ghost City since I was a child, and I am considered a native of the Wooden Ghost City, but even I have never met the city lord. And not to mention seeing the city lord, I don't even know if the city lord is male or female, fat or thin, tall or short......"

When the words came out, everyone felt incredible.

If you don't know what you look like, it's just that, but if you don't even know if it's a man or a woman, that's too exaggerated!

Hearing this, Jiang Han recalled that day in the auction hall, the city lord who was sitting in the largest box, from beginning to end, did not say a word.

If this city lord has always appeared in this posture, it is indeed a bit mysterious.

But why did he do it, and what was it?

"The name of the city lord, Xiuwei, there should always be some rumors in the outside world!" Cheng Qi leaned against the wall, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but speak: "Could it be that there is such a big piece of fat in the wooden ghost city, no one else wants to take a bite, and this time the new force alliance is actually the first?"

"There are a lot of rumors about this!" Jin Musheng thought for a while: "A more reliable statement is that the name of the city lord is Tang Yin, and the cultivation of the half-step transformation realm has been in the wood ghost city for hundreds of years, but these are all rumors, and there is no way to verify them!"

"If that's the case, it's reasonable!" Luo Wenying nodded: "What happened a hundred years ago, there are very few things that can be handed down, and it involves this level of power replacement, not to mention you, even if it is your relatives, you may not be able to contact ......"

"Alright!" Jiang Han raised his hand, stopping the trend of continuing the discussion.

Most of this kind of thing is hearsay, and it's good to listen to it, but if you dig into it and discuss it in depth, it will be a little too boring.

"Jin Musheng, you go on to talk about the situation in the wooden ghost city now!" Jiang Han glanced at Jin Musheng.

Jin Musheng hurriedly said: "Such a big thing has happened, and the New Forces Alliance naturally can't give up, so the problem has changed from conspiracy and calculation to a battle on the surface. The new forces have already issued an ultimatum to the Wooden Ghost City, if the City Lord of the Wooden Ghost City does not give them an explanation, in three days, they will launch a full-scale attack on the Wooden Ghost City!"

"How can there be a saying!" Jiang Han shook his head: "After killing more than seventy Enlightenment Periods, there is no room for reversal, if my guess is correct, that legendary Tang Yin, this time he is going to kill a hundred people!"

"However, it is rumored that the Tang Yin City Lord contacted some people from the old forces and asked them to make a move at a high price!" Jin Musheng's eyes flashed with excitement: "No matter what, a big battle is inevitable. After the chaos, there will be great governance, and then it will be time for us to take advantage of it!"

Jin Musheng's thoughts are probably the thoughts of other people in the entire secret room.

These people are willing to take the risk of staying here, rather than staying far away, naturally for the sake of a good word.

"Three days!" Jiang Han thought for a while and said: "Everyone will stay here for the past three days, don't move around, I think Luo Lianxue will definitely come here to meet us in three days, and if you have any questions and ideas at that time, just communicate with her!"

Bringing people here is already Jiang Hanren's righteousness.

As for the rest, before Luo Lianxue didn't reveal her plan, Jiang Han didn't have any idea of participating.

After Jiang Han finished speaking, he went to the end of the secret room and sat down to make his position clear, but in this way, the team was also divided into two.

Zhao Feng, Li Ningwei, Xiaotu and Jin Musheng naturally had to follow Jiang Han from the beginning.

But what Jiang Han didn't expect was that even Ouyang Qingling and Cheng Qi followed.

In this way, it is Luo Lianxue's side, and there are only two people, Luo Wenying and Niu Jing.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

"What's the matter with you!" Jiang Han glanced at Ouyang Qingling and Cheng Qi, and asked without hesitation: "I think even if I don't refuse your joining, I need you to give me a reasonable explanation!"

"Hehe!" Ouyang Qingling grabbed Li Ningwei's hand: "I will go wherever Xiao Weiwei goes, it's a big deal that I will also cheapen you, and I will be a pair of good sisters with Xiao Weiwei in the future and serve you together, how about it?"

Jiang Han naturally knew that Ouyang Qingling was joking, so he echoed and laughed twice, but his eyes looked at Li Ningwei on the side.

Li Ningwei's eyes were shy, but her fingers were very vaguely provoked, and immediately Jiang Han understood in his heart.

When leaving from Fumo Mountain, Jiang Han gave her a task in order to distract Li Ningwei's attention.

It is for Li Ningwei to try to get closer to Ouyang Qingling, and if possible, pull Ouyang Qingling directly into their camp.

Originally, Jiang Han just talked casually, after all, in his opinion, how could a person like Ouyang Qingling be moved by a few words, but he didn't expect that Ouyang Qingling would really agree.

As for Cheng Qi, Jiang Han suddenly thought of what he said in the forest before, he said that he owed Jiang Han once, and left after repaying the favor.

At first, Jiang Han thought it was his joke, but at this time, it seemed that he was indeed taking it seriously.

But that's okay, now that the situation is unclear, with Cheng Qi's enlightenment period by his side, he will always have more strength.

As for what Cheng Qi's real purpose was, Jiang Han didn't bother to investigate it for a while, anyway, there was a black dragon's divine mind looking at him, and Jiang Han was not afraid of any conspiracy and calculation from him.

"You guys just rest here first!" Jiang Han glanced at Jin Musheng and said, "If there is a need within the normal range, such as the elixir and incense used for cultivation, you can find Jin Musheng to solve it!"

Jiang Han was about to explain two more sentences, but he only felt that the cuffs had been pulled by someone.

Looking back, it was Li Ningwei.

Although Li Ningwei didn't speak, her eyes seemed to be able to speak, so that Jiang Han understood what she meant in an instant.

Li Ningwei clearly heard the meaning of parting in Jiang Han's words, and thought that Jiang Han was leaving again, and she was not ready to take her.

However, this time Li Ningwei may have miscalculated, Jiang Han did want to leave, but this time she did not throw away her thoughts, but thought about taking Li Ningwei with her.

"I'll go out to do some errands, and I'll probably be back before dark!" After saying that, Jiang Han made a color to Jin Musheng and left the secret room with him.

After Jin Musheng left the secret room, he didn't speak, but directly stuffed Jiang Han with a map.

Jiang Han shook off the map and glanced at it, revealing a hint of a smile.

"Jiang Han!" Li Ningwei tilted her head and looked at Jiang Han and said, "Are you hiding something from me!"

Jiang Han smiled and rubbed Li Ningwei's hair: "But I'm not going to hide this matter from you anymore, so I'll bring you over!"

After speaking, Jiang Han raised the map in his hand: "We are going to go, but it is a very terrifying place, how about it, are you afraid?"

"Huh!" Jiang Han's words naturally brought Li Ningwei a big white eye.

However, there is one thing that Jiang Han did not deceive Li Ningwei, what they want to go to is indeed a very terrifying place, called the dark market.

There is no way to verify where the name Dark Market first came from, but the existence of the Dark Market is said to have been formed far back from the time of the formation of the Wood Ghost City Market.

In other words, when the wooden ghost town itself has not yet formed a commercial city, the dark market of the wooden ghost town has already taken shape.

This is naturally related to his unique geographical location.

The Dark Market, as the name suggests, is a trading bazaar, but most of the things traded are burdened with blood and sin, and they are things that cannot be sold in the open.

When Jiang Han left the wooden ghost city, he secretly confessed to Jin Musheng and asked Jin Musheng to help him find some ancient demon dao exercises.

Although Jin Musheng didn't find the exercises, he found the way to enter the dark market.

This is also due to the reason why Jin Musheng was finally promoted to the Enlightenment Period, with his previous cultivation in the Qi Gathering Period, it would be absolutely impossible to find out.

And according to Jin Musheng, because of the turmoil in the wooden ghost city, many people have been selling their treasures in the dark market recently, and if Jiang Han wants to Taobao, now is undoubtedly the best opportunity.

This is also the reason why Jiang Han wants to leave at this time, and he wants to take Li Ningwei with him.

Now that the Qingyun Sect has been destroyed, Jiang Han has become a loose cultivator, and the shackles on his body have been completely opened, and he is no longer afraid of the prying eyes of others.

Whether it is Ma Suyun or Liang Chunmao, it has become a thing of the past.

In the days to come, the possibility of them and Jiang Han intersecting again is almost non-existent, and Jiang Han no longer has to worry about their threat.

Moreover, Jiang Han's cultivation has reached the enlightenment period, and it is time to start making a choice.

Jiang Han took Li Ningwei with him, just to let Li Ningwei know what he had done, and let Li Ningwei know that he was going to start practicing the Demon Dao exercises.

Let Li Ningwei be a witness, instead of informing her afterwards, in Jiang Han's view, it is the greatest respect for Li Ningwei.
