Chapter 103: Black Market Trading to Buy Talismans
At night, Jingdu City Xiangyu Building.
Compared with the candle flame in the front garden, the backyard looks a little dark, and there is a house hidden behind dark green.
A thin old man was looking at the account books under the candle.
Suddenly, the door shook, as if it had been quietly tickled by the night wind, and it could not be restrained, and it made a faint shaking sound.
"You're here. The thin old man put down the account book in his hand and looked at the door with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Shengong, what did I ask you about last time?" the black shadow at the door asked tentatively, bowing slightly.
"I know that you kid, you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Shengong shook his head a little self-deprecatingly, took out a codex from his sleeve, and threw it in the direction of the black shadow.
The black shadow quickly took the codex, and hurriedly opened it to take a closer look, although he couldn't see the expression of the masked face, but he was happy when he saw his eyebrows, and said happily: "Si Ming, thank you Mr. Shengong for your righteous help." ”
"It's a gesture. Shengong sighed lightly, and then seemed to remember something, "In recent years, a large number of people from the Immortal Dynasty have poured into Jingxiang Kingdom, and several of them have opened up a black market in Jingdu as a place for private transactions. However, it is important to remember that you should not do anything on the black market. ”
"Understood!" At the door, another breeze moved.
"The location is in the underground secret building of the Liufang Casino...... "Shengong saw that Si Ming had crossed the door, and he didn't know if the other party heard the location of the black market he said.
The Liufang Casino is full of smoke and miasma, noisy and noisy.
Si Ming was dressed in black, and it was inconvenient to stay in the casino hall, so Yin Feng swept over the second floor and entered the casino steward's room from the windowsill.
The casino manager was a bearded man about forty years old, and suddenly saw a man in black in front of the windowsill, although he was flustered in his heart, his face was not afraid: "Your nobleman is visiting late at night, I don't know what the villain can do?"
"Black market. Si Ming said coldly.
When the bearded man heard this, his face was a little surprised, and then he smiled and said: "That is the gathering place of all the adults, the villain does not dare to ...... without permission" Before the words were finished, suddenly the stone pillar lantern on his side seemed to have been cut in half from the center, and the rubble lamp oil was thrown to the ground in an instant. And Si Ming always stood in front of the window, never seemed to make a move, nor did he move half of his body.
"It turned out to be an adult, and the villain was offended. Seeing this, the bearded man's expression finally became frightened, and his attitude was respectful, "The villain will show you the way." ”
As he spoke, the bearded man led the way in front of him in a panic, leading Si Ming straight to the underground secret building.
Si Ming followed behind the bearded man, observing the surrounding environment, his footsteps were subtle, as if silent.
The bearded man opened a secret door and led Si Ming to the entrance of the stone steps, and then bowed down and left.
Si Ming looked at the dark stone steps in front of him, and stepped into it carefully.
Si Ming went all the way down the winding stone steps, and finally entered the underground secret building, but the scene in front of him was much beyond Si Ming's expectations, this so-called black market, neither paved nor popular, just in the corridor of the underground secret building, there were dozens of stalls sparsely placed, especially lonely and deserted, compared with a corner of the street in the market, it could not be the same day at all.
Occasionally, a few customers walked around, but they didn't linger much in the stalls.
Si Ming couldn't help but wonder if he came at the wrong time, or was the black market here originally like this?
Si Ming walked around several stalls one after another, and found that the things placed in these stalls were all kinds of precious herbs, weapons, exercises, etc., although every thing that was auctioned by the outside world could be worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver, but with these coarse things alone, even if most of the people in the Immortal Dynasty who came to Jingxiang were some unpopular characters, they should not be so bad, which was too far from the expectations of the black market in their hearts!
"Your Excellency is not satisfied with my silver moon lotus plant?" The stall owner was a middle-aged man in his forties, and he looked at Si Ming for a long time with this crescent-like silver rhizome, and he didn't ask for a price, so he couldn't help but speak.
"Uh......" Si Ming heard the voice, came back to his senses, put down the silver moon lotus, and looked at the stall owner seriously, "I don't know if the boss is here, are there any pills, talismans, etc.?"
The stall owner glanced up and down at Si Ming, who was wrapped in a black cloth, as if he had finally met a customer, and said unsurprisingly: "Your Excellency is asking the right person." ”
I saw the stall owner's left sleeve flick to the stall, and the precious things on the stall suddenly disappeared, and then, the stall owner's right sleeve was another one, and there were hundreds of talismans of different colors on the stall.
"There are no pills, but there are many low-level talismans. The stall owner looked at Si Ming with a smile, "Your Excellency can pick whatever you want!"
Seeing this, Si Ming was shocked in his heart, and he accepted things! What a person can't look like, such an inconspicuous stall owner turned out to be a spiritual realm powerhouse? Should this be said that he was too lucky, or was the thing too coincidental? After thinking about it, how could all the good things be easily put out, they must be hidden and tucked, and they would not be taken out casually until the necessary moment.
Si Ming thought about it so carefully, and couldn't help but be relieved, and asked with some hesitation at the moment: "I don't know the boss, what is the price of these talismans?"
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. The stall owner turned over the talismans one by one with a smile on his face, "Don't look at my spirit runes, although the grade is not high, but they are worth the money, like this luck spirit rune, the evil avoidance spirit rune will each receive 1 tael of spirit jade, a yang flame spirit rune 3 taels of spirit jade, a water cutting spirit rune 5 taels of spirit jade......"
Si Ming's head swelled for a while when he heard this, there were so many kinds of spirit runes, and the Yang Yan spirit rune that he had worked so hard to get was just an ordinary low-level rune? Also, what is this spirit jade?
"I don't know...... Your place ...... "the order is a little fragmented," ...... Is it possible to buy it with gold or silver?"
The stall owner was slightly stunned when he heard this, glanced at Si Ming with some surprise, and sighed: "Okay, I just came to Jingxiang, and I lack gold and silver at hand." In this way, the Luck Talisman and the Evil Avoidance Talisman will charge you 100,000 taels of silver, the Yang Yan Talisman 300,000 taels of silver, and the Water Chopping Talisman, forget it, half sell and half give, and also collect 300,000 taels of silver. ”
What? Si Ming's heart turned up a huge wave, these talismans are too expensive, right? Could it be that the things in the spiritual realm themselves are so expensive? Or is it that the stall owner sees that he is a wronged boss and wants to slaughter him?
Si Ming looked at the stall owner's expression with some apprehension, and saw that he always looked like he had suffered a big loss, and his heart was even more uncertain.
In the end, Si Ming still took out 2 million taels of silver tickets, and bought 4 luck spirit runes, 4 evil avoidance spirit runes, and 2 yang flame spirit runes and 2 water cutting spirit runes.
Looking at the narrow and small 12 pieces of tissue paper in his hand, almost exhausting all his net worth, Si Ming's heart was dripping with blood for no reason, if it weren't for his wealth, I am afraid he would have to sigh at the "Fu".
Sure enough, the things in the spiritual realm are not so easy to reach.
Si Ming carefully folded the talismans and carried them into his arms. At the moment, I don't dare to stay in the black market for a long time, I am afraid of being robbed and deceived, it is too dangerous here, and it is better to go.
Si ordered a few to jump and sweep out of the street corner.
A few feet away, a slender figure quietly followed.
Si Ming didn't look back, but unfolded his body, took a few jumps, and quickly bypassed a few streets.
Turning back to the corridor of the city tower, Si Ming was smug, and with a few strokes of his body, he easily shook off the tracking behind.
Suddenly, a cold light pierced straight down from the eaves of the porch.
Si Ming was startled, and immediately reflexively stabbed out with a sword, and the two swords intersected.
Si Ming jumped back with his strength, and when he fixed his eyes, a woman in black with a sword was standing opposite, and by the moonlight, he saw that her face was actually Mingfeng Gu Feng Xiaoxian.
"Gong Hou Pavilion, do a lot of evil, and disregard people's lives, tonight I want to eliminate harm for the people and eradicate you, the killer of the night!" Feng Xiaoxian waved the long sword in his hand and said in a long voice.
It is also said that today's Si Ming, the reward for learning in the Jingxiang Academy Palace, has already soared to 30 learning chips, which can be called the first of all non-offensive tasks.
Si Ming sneered, standing solemnly in the wind, and the cool night breeze blew his black clothes, as if he was contemptuous of Feng Xiaoxian's indiscretion.
"Non-attackers, prosper and eliminate harm. Feng Xiaoxian read while raising her sword to attack, and her sprinkled sword moves were like flying flowers, matching her slender posture, which was very beautiful and moving.
Si Ming's hands unloaded Feng Xiaoxian's offensive one after another, and he couldn't help but notice that this Feng Xiaoxian was young and had already broken through the calcining period, no wonder he dared to come and challenge himself alone.
Si Ming's sword body was raised, and he avoided Feng Xiaoxian's blow, jumped into the shape of the situation, jumped under the corridor, and secretly thought in his heart, how should the current situation end?
Feng Xiaoxian's smart sword moves, like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, took the opportunity to step down the corridor, fired several moves in succession, and chased after him.
Si Ming pondered and decided, snorted lightly at the corner of his mouth, blocked horizontally with his sword, and swept out a move "Heavenly Cold Red Leaves", which instantly broke Feng Xiaoxian's pressing offensive, followed by another "Fallen leaves gather and disperse", and the cold sword blade with a tricky angle instantly pointed at the side of Feng Xiaoxian's neck.
Feng Xiaoxian was stunned, looking at the sword blade that stopped at half an inch of his neck, and the sword move in his hand could no longer be used.
How so?
Feng Xiaoxian's face was full of despair, originally thinking that with his cultivation in the foundation period, it should be more than enough to capture and kill Si Ming, how could he have thought that he would be so vulnerable! Recall that he was conceited and talented since he was a child, proud of his peers, and he traveled all the way, breaking through the barriers, but he didn't expect to end up like this? There are still many beautiful things that he has not experienced, and he has not yet experienced them, so he is going to die quietly in this street and alley?
I don't know whether it is remorse, or fear, or regret, a teardrop can't help but slip out of the corner of Feng Xiaoxian's eyes.
Looking at the cold face covering the opposite side, Feng Xiaoxian couldn't help but close his eyes and wait for death, and all kinds of thoughts in his mind seemed to be completely put down at this moment.
However, what touched him was not the cold sharp blade, but a thumb with a faint residual warmth, which gently wiped his cheek and wiped away the tears that slid on his cheek: "How can you be like this, if you can't beat it, you will cry your nose, tsk ......" The voice was clear, and it was a young and pleasant male voice.
Then, the sword that had once forced his neck was taken back.
Feng Xiaoxian opened her eyes a little stunned, but saw that the slender figure had already swept past the corners of the eaves and blended into the thick night.
Feng Xiaoxian looked at the back and shouted angrily: "Don't be complacent, one day, I will definitely defeat you." ”
"You don't have that opportunity. In the night, a casual voice came from a long distance.
"Arrogance!" Feng Xiaoxian heard this, and her heart was even more congested, and her jade hand covered her still slightly moist cheeks, and then she realized that she had been ...... Touched in the face by him!
"Shameless!" Feng Xiaoxian couldn't help but take another sip in her mouth.
