Chapter 4: Rushing to the Black Market
After coming out of the room, Wu Feng went straight to a small courtyard that had been abandoned for a long time, which used to be the residence of a hunting detachment, but the whole team was destroyed during a mission, and since then it has been regarded as a murderous mansion and no one lives in it anymore.
Wu Feng does not believe in evil, because this is the outermost part of the Li family's mansion, and the view is unobstructed, whenever he encounters troubles, he will come here, sit alone, look out, and meditate.
A rush of footsteps would continue to break the silence for a long time, and it also pulled Wu Feng out of his thoughts.
"Vice Captain, you are really here, something happened!"
Li Da's face was fiery red, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down rapidly, and it seemed that he had run all the way.
Jumping from the roof as light as a swallow, Wu Feng asked, "What's wrong?"
Quickly taking a breath, Li Da didn't dare to delay and rushed back: "I went to the bazaar with He Kui to purchase equipment and medicines, but Qin Bai's bastard didn't know what method he used, and all the shops didn't supply us. ”
Hunting is fighting with wild beasts, equipment and medicine are life-saving things, Qin Bai's methods have to be said to be very clever, and he directly cut off Wu Feng's supply.
Jian Feng frowned slightly, Wu Feng obviously didn't expect Qin Bai to make a move so quickly and so ruthlessly.
"Have you been to the shops that you are familiar with Uncle Long?"
"Go, I've been there, and said that Qin Bai paid double the price to purchase all the equipment and medicines. Li Da panted and then said anxiously: "Deputy captain, we haven't gone out hunting for a long time, and there are not many medicines and equipment left over from the last time, how can this be good?"
There is no supply and there is not enough inventory, which is indeed quite tricky, in other words, in this battle, Wu Feng has lost at the starting line.
Wu Feng paced back and forth, thinking a lot, it was too late to go to the neighboring town to purchase, and the nearest journey would take three or four days to go back and forth, and the day after tomorrow would be the day of departure.
Seeing that Wu Feng had no countermeasures for a while, Li Da was even more panicked, but he could only watch Wu Feng pacing back and forth anxiously.
Finally, his footsteps stopped, and his frowning brows also relaxed, Wu Feng walked to Li Da's side, smiled slightly, and said, "The sky can't fall, I have a way!"
"What's the solution?!" Li Da was overjoyed.
"Black market!"
As the name suggests, the black market is a gathering place for the wicked, and its head is said to be a ruthless person who does all kinds of evil, in addition to hunting by himself, these people make a living by robbing and Anzhen merchants' goods, and then forcing the merchants to recover them at double or triple the price. It's just that in recent years, He'anzhen's power has grown, and the black market doesn't dare to be as unscrupulous as before.
"What? Black market! No, absolutely not, aren't you looking for death!" Li Da directly objected.
"Then how do you have any way to find the source of goods?" Wu Feng asked with a chuckle, looking at Li Da, who was not speaking, and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm fine, the black market is also a business, and it's not an eighteen-layer hell." ”
"But ......!" Li Da was still not at ease.
"Needless to say, this is an order!" Wu Feng said solemnly.
"Then when are you going?" Li Da nodded and asked.
"Without further ado, I'll leave, after I leave, you will properly place the inventory and keep someone to take care of it at all times, and let the brothers go out as little as possible, in case Qin Bai does something else. Wu Feng replied solemnly.
"Yes!" Li Da clenched his fists and commanded.
......
In order to avoid people's eyes, Wu Feng did not go through the gate, but went out directly from the deserted small courtyard, and after going out, he also avoided the large courtyard and the public to choose small roads and dark alleys, until the city head of He'an Town was far behind him, and then he strode towards the black market.
The black market is about half a day's walk away from He'an Zhen, and at this time the sun is gradually setting, Wu Feng needs to rush to the black market before the hour, otherwise he will have to delay for another day. As for why there is a time constraint, it is because the black market is only open for business when night falls, in other words, they are serious businessmen during this time period, and other than that, they are out-and-out bandits.
Three years of training has created a cheetah-like agility, Wu Feng ran all the way, boulders blocked the way, flying over, puddles blocked, dragonflies dotted water.
At the beginning of the stars, Wu Feng gradually slowed down, there was no road ahead, there was a mass grave in the middle of the mountain on both sides, which was buried by some poor people or people on the street, it was cloudy during the day, and it was even more infiltrating at night, but in order to save time, Wu Feng had to go through here, because this was the fastest route.
The miserable white moonlight made the trees and stones in the chaotic wind hill look ghostly, and the crows screamed from time to time, making people's hair stand on end.
Wu Feng stood in place, observing the front like an owl, adjusting his breathing and preparing to pass directly through the Troubled Wind Gang, and then just as he was about to take a step, a whining sound came into his ears.
It's certainly not a ghost, it's a human!
Putting his footsteps to the lightest, Wu Feng silently followed the sound like a ghost, and when five or six blurred figures appeared in the field of vision under the moonlight, he lay on a grave to observe closely.
"Second master, this time we ran away again!"
"It's better to run away than to go bush hunting, right?"
"But this poor life is really not good, the brothers haven't looked for a woman for almost half a month. ”
"Damn it, you bunnies are going to die at the hands of women sooner or later. Don't be verbose, let's see if there are any new graves, dig them!"
......
"Who are these people? black market or some other bandits?"
Wu Feng asked secretly in his heart, the distance is very far and the moonlight is mottled, not to mention the appearance and even the clothes and dresses are not real, but one thing Wu Feng is very sure of, this group of people is by no means good at stubble, and then changed their hiding place and climbed an old tree.
This is a mass grave, who will bury the rich and powerful here? A small earthen bag is considered a mansion, and some are directly wrapped in straw mats and are still in the grass.
After a long time, this group of people really didn't have the heart to dig up, because there was nothing of value at all.
"Second master, do you think the big boss will punish us!"
"What can you do with punishment, if you have the ability, you can go to ransack He'an Town, where there is a lot of money and a lot of women!"
"The second master laughed, today's He'an Town is not the fat sheep that we slaughtered at the beginning, especially the Li family, which has developed too fast in recent years. ”
"It's good to know, then complain less to Lao Tzu, do what we do, enjoy blessings and suffering...... What people?!"
Wu Feng subconsciously leaned his body against the trunk of the tree, and just when he thought he was discovered, there was a rapid sound of breaking wind in the air, followed by screams, and the whole process did not exceed ten breaths.
"Plum Blossom Dart!?"
Wu Feng was surprised, because he was very familiar with this kind of secret weapon, it was the killer weapon of the Hurricane detachment, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart, and then he poked out half of his head, squinted his eyes and tried to see more clearly, when he saw several black shadows jumping from the tree, the last trace of doubt was gone, because one of the burly figures was particularly obvious.
"!"
