Chapter 296: Flowers
Before the curfew in Moon Worship City, Di Yunfeng and the others returned to the SF Inn, washed off their tiredness and had a full meal.
SF Inn extends in all directions, and it was said that the teleportation array is not allowed to operate after the virtual time, but Wu Shifei's identity is bright, and the innkeeper not only made an exception to open the formation, but also arranged several people to the back garden mansion, and the rent and food are all free!
Wu Shifei and Di Yunfeng didn't waste any more time, the black market only opened after a short time, and this was the perfect time to arrest Lu Qian.
Jingfeng is not a city, the geographical location is unique, it is the largest transit station in the west except for the moon worship city, many buildings are built at the foot of Jingfeng Mountain, a large number of businessmen pour into this convenient transportation hub station, the wind and water are rising, and there are more people over time, and the boundary is becoming more and more prosperous.
The time has come.
Di Yunfeng and Wu Shifei just stepped on the point to reach Jingfeng Mountain.
Jingfeng Mountain does not return to the city of Moon Worship City, but it must obey the orders of Moon Worship City. The policy of the Wraith Empire is the same, no matter how small a city is, there is a city lord to govern it, but the small city must be attached to the big city, and in addition to the local taxes, a part must be handed over to the dependent city.
Jingfeng is not a city, so there is no city lord to say, only a few stewards under the imperial capital.
"These stewards are actually small sesame officials with the imperial capital, and they are as small as ants in front of me. ”
Wu Shifei enjoys the pleasure brought by politics very much, every time he mentions some things in officialdom, his attitude seems to have changed Yes, the frame is official, and the tone is also official.
The two of them walked out of the teleportation array, and the innkeeper was already waiting at the door with a smile, and said respectfully: "The Moon Worship City has already sent me a message, and the two VIPs can just give me any needs." ”
"The news of SF Inn is faster than the teleportation array, admiration and admiration. Wu Shifei said politely.
Di Yunfeng took out the portrait of Lu Qian that he had copied in advance from his arms, spread it out and showed it to the innkeeper to inspect, and asked, "The shopkeeper can see this person?"
The innkeeper nodded: "How could I not know Lord Lu, he brought a large number of messengers to sit in the teleportation array early this morning, and I don't know what to do." ”
Di Yunfeng asked again: "Then do you know which direction he went?"
The innkeeper thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's really unfortunate that the two adults came, just now he went out of the inn with dinner, it seems that he is going to the place of Shilipo, but I can't say the specific direction." ”
Di Yunfeng asked again: "Is there an underground black market in Shilipo?"
"This ......," the innkeeper hesitated.
Everyone knows about the black market, but no one will say that SF Inn is so big, maybe there is also business done in the black market, and it is normal for the innkeeper to hesitate.
Di Yunfeng smiled, dragged it to no one's place, and pointed to Wu Shifei beside him: "Shopkeeper, let me introduce you, this is the trusted city lord of Moon Worship City, and he is nicknamed 'Lu Jun'." ”
"Lu Jun is not a nickname given by someone, but a title. Wu Shifei corrected coldly.
"Ah, no wonder the chief shopkeeper personally sent the order, it turned out that Lu Jun was here, please accept the villain's worship" The innkeeper wanted to kneel, but Di Yunfeng smiled and helped him up: "Don't make a big salute, we are short of time, you can tell me about the situation of the ten mile slope." ”
The innkeeper didn't dare to delay time, and said quickly: "Shilipo is the largest underground trading place at the foot of Jingfeng Mountain, of which there are three big ones, and there are seven or eight small ones. ”
"That's very good. ”
......
The innkeeper soon found a shrewd servant named Zhang San. Zhang San is quite familiar with the black market, and some of the business in the inn is also Zhang Luo in the black market.
"The black market in Shilipo is located underground, and there are three relatively large ones, namely Boss Xue's 'Xue Dasheng', Boss Liu's 'Liu Runfu', and Boss Jin's 'Jin Dafu', I don't know which one the two adults are going to go to?" Zhang San asked before leaving.
Wu Shifei couldn't make up his mind, everything had to depend on Di Yunfeng: "Bai Moli, what do you think?"
Di Yunfeng said with a smile: "Naturally, the three of them won't go, let's pick a small black market, the smaller the better." ”
Lu Qian took advantage of the prestige of the new city lord to investigate the black market everywhere, in order to loot money, if a few big bosses are generous, he can collect money without spending manpower and material resources, why not?
Although Zhang San didn't know the adults' decision, it was right to implement it obediently as a subordinate, so he said: "If the adults want to go to the most unpopular black market, then they have to go to the 'Tongmahui' opened by Zhang Ergou privately." ”
Di Yunfeng stroked his chin: "Tongmacan?" is a bit interesting. ”
Zhang San also smiled: "There are only a dozen shops there, in the name of mutual relief, but in fact, there is no business, but I."
I haven't been, and I don't know how. ”
"I've been an official for so many years, and I've never been to any of these places. See you today. Wu Shifei grabbed Zhang San and Di Yunfeng with his left and right hands, and escaped to the ground, ten miles of slope.
Under the guidance of Zhang San, the two soon arrived at the door of the "Tongmasonry".
The name of the Tongmasons is very loud, but it is really unbearable when you look at the cards. The hanging archway is like a horizontal tombstone, and you will feel moldy at a glance.
"Why don't we change it?" If Lu Qian doesn't like it, won't we run for nothing?" Wu Shifei proposed.
Di Yunfeng suddenly asked, "Have you ever visited the kiln?"
Wu Shifei said inexplicably: "What is your problem, how could I go to that kind of place!"
Di Yunfeng said with a smile: "This almost archway also has a little benefit, cheap, good work, and thoughtful hospitality, so do you think there is no business here?"
Wu Shifei stopped talking.
"Let's go, stop by and see if there's anything you need to use. ”
......
There are indeed only a dozen shops in the Tongmaq Association, but the buyers who come in and out of the door, the passers-by on the street are endless, saying that it is small is actually not small, more than a dozen shops are two or three storey pavilions, and the repair has a unique flavor, the street is full of lights, and the whole market is brightly reflected.
"The archway outside is so dilapidated, and the inside is so beautiful, today is a sight. "Di Yunfeng likes the lights, this has a prosperous scene in the world.
Wu Shifei praised softly: "I can't imagine that the lights are bright in the places where I can't see the light, am I lonely and unheard......"
Di Yunfeng pricked up his ears, but he could hear it clearly, and he teased: "You dignitaries, you eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, and live in exquisite pavilions, where do you know the pain and happiness in the world?"
"That's true, hehe......" Wu Shifei smiled ashamedly.
"Two uncles, buy a bouquet of flowers and give it to your sweetheart. Suddenly, a milky voice came from under the feet of the two. The two looked down and found that it was a little girl less than five years old, the little girl was dragging a flower basket that was not much smaller than her, holding two bouquets of flowers in her pink little hands, with big watery eyes, standing on tiptoe, trying to send the flowers to Di Yunfeng or Wu Shifei's hands.
Di Yunfeng felt so uncomfortable in his heart, and he couldn't get any better looking at Wu Shifei's appearance.
There are three "nos" in the ghost world, one is that there is no day and night, the second is that there are no poultry and livestock, and the third is that there are no children.
The first two places can not be mentioned, but the third place has to mention that most of the ghost world are souls after death, and they have already been reincarnated at the end of their lives, and the accidental dead will wander in the major ghost domains. Countless children in the mortal world die every year, they are young and do not know the world, and they set foot on the road of death in a daze, but they all know that the road to life is full of dangers, and the soul of the child is pure and delicious......
The souls of the vast majority of children have become snacks for evil spirits, and now this child can live until now, and can still use a physical body, which is tragic and lucky.
"Alas, what a lovely child," Wu Shifei took the flower, compared the height of the girl, and asked with a smile: "I squat down taller than you, alas, how old is the little girl this year?"
The little girl took two steps back, stretched out her hand and asked directly: "Two flowers and ten pieces of ghost jade, uncle, please give money." ”
"Uh...... Ahem, ahem!" Wu Shifei coughed in fright, and said in surprise: "Two flowers cost ten pieces of ghost jade?"
The little girl stretched out her hand again and asked, "Uncle can't buy it if it's too expensive, but you must give me back the flowers." ”
Wu Shifei didn't miss this little money, so he simply gave ten pieces of ghost jade, and the little girl put the ghost jade into the basket, and said politely: "Thank you" and walked back without looking back.
Wu Shifei touched his face and said with a wry smile: "Do I look like a bad person?"
Di Yunfeng smiled: "If I give birth to a daughter in the future, I will definitely teach her not to talk to strangers easily," Speaking of this, he shook his head again: "No, I can't have a daughter, I want Xue'er to give me a son." ”
Wu Shifei got up and said, "Isn't your woman dead?"
Di Yunfeng said, "Your woman is dead!"
Wu Shifei shrugged: "I don't have a woman." ”
Di Yunfeng seized the opportunity to sneer: "You are so pitiful. ”
Wu Shifei sighed: "I am indeed pitiful, but it is not that I am pitiful, but all the men in the entire ghost world are pitiful." If you can't reach the cultivation of the Immortal Bone Blood Realm, you won't be able to have children. ”
Di Yunfeng raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you in the blood realm?"
Wu Shifei was uncomfortable and said: "But there is no woman who has cultivated to the blood realm!"
Di Yunfeng smiled "poof": "That...... It's sad indeed. ”
If in the world, the hen does not lay eggs, the mother-in-law is a letter of resignation to send to the mother's family.
Wu Shifei sighed deeply again: "So you still pick, whether it's a daughter or a son, I think it's good, alas...... If I am lucky enough to meet a beautiful woman, whether I am beautiful, ugly, fat or thin, I want to get married, I want to be a father, I want a cute child like the little girl just now. ”
"Speaking of that kid, do you know why the flowers she just bought are so expensive?" Di Yunfeng suddenly remembered and asked.
Wu Shifei noticed the flower in his hand at this time, and he didn't look at it twice, so he looked around to find the child's figure, but the child didn't have much strength, and he didn't go far with the flower basket.
"Although this looks very similar to the flower on the other side, it shouldn't be the flower on the other side, right?" Di Yunfeng said softly.
"Although this is not a flower on the other side, it is also a very unique flower, have you ever seen a blue flower blooming in the ghost world?" Wu Shifei hurriedly followed the little girl who had bought flowers earlier.
"Interesting. Di Yunfeng smiled gloomily and followed.
......
The little girl finally dragged the flower basket back to the shop, and after a long distance, she began to wave her hand to announce the good news: "Sister, I sold two flowers today, and someone really sold them, ten ghost jade!"
Children always like to show off, and ten pieces of ghost jade is not a small amount, and if you can sell a few more, you can buy a human pill.
Of course, the misfortune came from the mouth, a little girl, with ten pieces of ghost jade in the basket, and shouted loudly, there are always people who come and go!
Sure enough, a thin man was quick-eyed, snatched the ghost jade from the little girl's basket and ran to the street!
"My ...... You return my ghost jade!" the little girl put down the basket, opened her calves, and chased after the thin man.
"Xiaotong, don't chase after you!" a pale young woman ran out of the shop, calling out and chasing after the little girl.
After a few steps, the thin man who grabbed the money disappeared into the sea of people, and the little girl sat on the ground in a state of distraction, her nose was sore, and tears were in her eyes, but she never cried.
The passers-by were very indifferent, because time was precious, so they were reluctant to even glance at the little girl.
"Little Tung...... What are you running blindly!" The young woman hurriedly ran to hold the little girl in her arms, panting, "Do you know how dangerous it is to run away?"
The girl named "Xiaotong" turned into tears, she threw herself into the woman's chest, and sobbed softly: "Sister, why...... Why did she rob my ghost jade, that's the money I used to sell flowers......"
The young woman's life is not good, she saw Xiaotong crying, her eyes were also red, but verbally she tried to comfort: "Okay, okay, it's okay, let's sell a few more flowers and come back?"
"I think these words are very beautiful, why don't you sell me a few more?" Unconsciously, Wu Shifei was already standing beside the two sisters who depended on each other, he bent over and showed a smile as warm as a spring breeze.
Xiaotong and the young woman both looked up at the visitor in surprise, "It's the uncle who bought my flowers before!"
Wu Shifei winked at the little girl, slowly spread out the palm of his left hand, and a piece of blood-colored jade appeared in his hand, he smiled: "This is blood jade, a piece should be able to buy a basket of flowers, right?" It turned out that he had already brought back the flower basket with his right hand.
The passers-by all stopped and stared at the blood jade in Wu Shifei's hand, some were greedy, some were envious, and some were fierce!
The little girl hurriedly hugged the flower basket and said suspiciously: "I have twelve flowers here, count ...... Count," she really started counting with her little hands, "That's sixty pieces of ghost jade!
The young woman said lightly: "Xiaotong, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this is a piece of blood jade, so she wrapped Wu Shifei's fist with her hand again, and reminded softly: "This lord, it is taboo to expose money in the black market, you better take back the blood jade quickly." ”
At this time, the crowd of onlookers was pushed away, and Di Yunfeng walked in with a thin man who grabbed the jade with one hand. The thin man had been pinched by him and was dying, and he was almost losing the strength to beg for mercy. He threw the emaciated man on the ground and threw the ten pieces of ghost jade he had collected into a basket of flowers.
"What to do with him?" he asked.
Wu Shifei glanced at the man coldly, and said: "According to the laws of the empire, robbery on the street will be taken into custody in a ghost prison for three months, but I saw that this person was not right, and even the little girl's money was robbed of her hands and feet, and she was sent to hell!"
