Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 57 Black Market

The black market, as the name suggests, is also a shady underground market, where a large number of prohibited businesses converge!

Here, there is basically no concept of legal system, as long as you can afford enough, you can get whatever you want.At the same time, although the black market has never been officially recognized by the major counties and cities, due to its extensive contacts and the support of huge forces behind it, they only need to pay a large sum of money every year to fill the pockets of officials in the same city, and their existence can be It has almost become a tacit agreement to continue to get acquiescence.

Others are not allowed to fight in the city, but they can.Even if it is killing someone, as long as the traces are wiped out in time after the event, and don't be caught by others, the person in charge will still choose to turn a blind eye or turn a blind eye.Even in the competition for power, some officials would also come to the black market to make entrustments in order to eradicate their competitors. It could also be said that each of them had some handles in the hands of the other party, which made the cooperative relationship between the two parties even more unbreakable.

If you sell Ye Shuo's information to the black market, you will be able to find out if there are any fragments of the secret code on him. The enemy eats up everything, not letting go of any benefit that can be squeezed from him.

"So that's the case, it's my father who is smart!" Ruan Shi was convinced.

At that moment, the two of them walked through the streets and all the way to a gambling house with a thriving business.On the surface, it is a gambling house, but it is also one of the entrances to the black market.

After knowing their reason for coming, the person in charge of the casino led them into a secret passage, leading them all the way to the underground secret room.The environment here is dark and the walls are empty. There is only a square table in the middle of the secret room. An oil lamp is lit on the square table. The swaying flames cast crooked shadows on the wall, and ghosts are everywhere.

An old man sat behind the square table.With gray hair and a pale face, he looked like an impermanent evil spirit in hell.He wears a black patch over his right eye.Even so, one can still see a deep and long scar hanging from his forehead to the corner of his mouth, adding a bit of grimness to his already ghastly face.

After the person in charge ushered them in, he also bowed down knowingly and closed the door thoughtfully.The ancient iron door opened and closed, making a long "squeak", which sounded especially mournful in this dark environment, full of strange ominousness.

"Sit." The old man didn't seem to hear it.Without raising his eyelids, he just casually spoke to the two of them.

"Mr. Wu." Ruan Wei cupped his hands to the old man.He only heard from others that the person in charge of this black market is called Mr. Wu. As for other information about him, no one knows who he works for.

Ruan Shi didn't dare to greet the weird old man, and sat down in the chair with his father tremblingly.Since it was the first time I came here, although I was afraid in my heart, I still couldn't help rolling my eyes and looking around curiously.

"Young man, in this place, the deaf and blind usually live longer." Just as he was secretly amazed by looking around, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded in the secret room.

Ruan Shi was taken aback, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw Mr. Wu's two cold gazes falling directly on his face, the murderous intent in his words was almost undisguised, Ruan Shi only felt a chill Seeing to the bottom of his heart, he shivered shiveringly, and immediately sat upright, his eyes only fixed on the tip of his nose, and he didn't dare to make any extra movements.

Mr. Wu seems to be very satisfied with Ruan Shi's cooperation, or maybe he never cared about these juniors at all.He said coldly: "Since you're here, you should be clear about the rules of the black market, so I won't go into too much detail. Are you here to trade goods, information, or release missions?"

Information transactions, the most common ones are generally which ruins will appear in the near future, when and where they will be opened, or which ancient caves have not been discovered. In a word, as long as it is information related to treasures, it is always It can make the great dynasties succeed one after another.Everyone wants to get first-hand information in the fierce competition. In the process of treasure hunting, they may be able to get a few more treasures than their opponents.For this, they did not hesitate to pay huge fortunes.

And those who are a little bit off, like a well-known strong man who is about to appear at a certain time and place, then if his opponent buys this news, he can take action in person, or issue a mission, and carry out a secret interception!It is said that there were indeed many strong men who fell because of this.

The trading of goods usually means that some people can choose to sell the stolen goods on the black market after they have obtained a certain treasure through improper means and cannot sell it through formal channels.The black market has its fixed sales channels, and there will never be any incidents where the goods are dropped in the hands or cause trouble to the owner of the goods.After all, although the reputation of the black market is not very good, its reputation is quite good.Of course, this is also under the premise that the goods do have corresponding value.

As for the assignments, although they are all-encompassing, but most of the time they are received, they are still mainly commissions for killing people and stealing goods.

"Information transaction." Ruan Wei made a judgment almost instantly, "I have top-level intelligence for sale."

"Yeah." Mr. Wu casually threw out a jade slip, "Jade slips can't lie. You just need to inject the information you need to trade into it, and it will judge by itself."

Ruan Wei took the jade slip, and with a thought, a large amount of information was quickly integrated into the jade slip.After a moment of silence, the surface of the jade slip began to emit a green light.

"It turned out to be first-class intermediate intelligence?" Mr. Wu was also slightly moved at this time.After Ruan Wei held the jade slip up, he snatched it almost immediately, his spiritual consciousness quickly integrated into it, and after a brief browsing, he raised his eyes again.

"Evidence is required for all intelligence transactions. Do you have evidence?"

"Yes, it's right here." Ruan Wei quickly took out the Mingling Jade Bead, which he used to burn the first page of the scroll just to obtain this certificate.After injecting spiritual power, he swept towards the wall beside him.A soft light shot out, and a large number of characters rotated and enlarged in the light, and finally covered the entire wall.Although this is just a projection, there is still an aura of vicissitudes from ancient times, which radiates unreservedly between the words.

"Well, this is indeed an ancient soul method." Mr. Wu nodded slowly, then called in a servant, and ordered: "You go to the auction house immediately to confirm that today's treasure appraisal transaction was once true."

Ruan Shi was not angry.Why does this need to be confirmed? Does he still suspect that we will lie?What's more, it is really disrespectful to distrust so much in front of guests.But complaints are complaints, he doesn't have the guts to question them face to face.

In fact, he doesn’t know yet. This kind of information that is easy to confirm is okay. Some other information, such as the whereabouts of some important figures, was only discovered by a certain spiritual practitioner by accident. There is no second witness at all, let alone evidence as physical evidence.If you still want to make a transaction, you have to take the initiative to let go of your spiritual sense and let the other party use the soul search technique to test the memory. Although you have suffered all kinds of humiliation, there is nothing you can do. After all, in this kind of place where there are no rules, of course no one will come Tell you the rules.

After a while, the boy turned around and whispered something in Mr. Wu's ear.

"The information is true, and we can trade." Mr. Wu thought for a while, "However, you said that the boy may have another fragment, which is only based on your speculation, so it is not accurate. Therefore, the information you provide can only be used as' Correspondingly, the intelligence level is only intermediate-level second-level. The price of intermediate-level second-level information is between [-] and [-] spirit stones. For yours, it is [-]. "Speaking, he took out the storage ring and put it on the table.

Ruan Wei responded respectfully all the way, but Ruan Shi cursed inwardly: "It's really no business and no evil, even your jade slip has been detected to be intermediate-level first-class intelligence. Now you touch your lips like this, it's inexplicable. Intermediate Second Class!"

"By the way, Mr. Wu, besides this, I also want to make a deal with you... I hope this matter can be concluded with you in private, and it should not be known to outsiders..." Ruan Wei said again.

"Trading? This black market is a place for trading, but everything must be done according to the rules!" Mr. Wu's face darkened again, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.

"No, no, don't get me wrong..." Ruan Wei quickly waved his hands to explain, "What I mean is, if you kill that kid and get the remaining ancient secrets from him, I am willing to trade with you at the market price. Transaction! I hope you will be the first to notify me, and don’t sell this scroll to others for the time being.”

Mr. Wu’s eyes flickered for a moment, and he folded his hands with great interest: “No one ever said that he was going to kill that kid. Since this is your wish, it’s fine,” pushing another dark green jade slip, “Here’s the record There are detailed instructions for posting tasks, you can read them through, and then enter the specific information of the task according to the regulations. After the task is completed, we will talk about the specific issue of scroll trading. By the way, this is a second-level high-level task, and you need to pay [-] Lingshi."

"..." Ruan Wei's mouth twitched.With the style of the black market, it is impossible not to kill Ye Shuo after getting the news, but now because of Ruan Wei's redundant confirmation, Mr. Na Wu calmly pushed the matter away, and instead asked him to To issue another task, this is simply asking yourself to pay for their actions!

What's more, when Mr. Wu pushed the jade slip just now, Ruan Wei clearly saw a sly smile flashing across his usually indifferent eyes, which made him sigh the treachery of the black market even more.

"By the way, that kid, what level of spiritual practitioner is he?" Mr. Wu suddenly asked.

"Gain...storage for a while!" Ruan Shi preemptively said, in his cognition, the lower the level of the opponent, the less difficult it is to deal with, and the reward may be less.

"Stay angry for a while? Are you fucking kidding me?" Unexpectedly, after hearing Ruan Shi's answer, Mr. Wu suddenly cursed. "With the strength of accumulating energy for a while, you can have the ancient heart method? Do you really think that I am the first day in this way?"

Ruan Shi thought to himself that if there is really a boy who has been holding his breath for a while, he is just lucky, so what.But he didn't dare to say that.

"This... that kid has a very good breath-holding technique, and we can't detect his real state. We only know that his superficial strength is indeed accumulating energy for a while." Ruan Wei could only stammer his explanation road.

"Hmph, he has a very powerful breath-holding technique that even you can't detect, which means that his strength is at least above the Qi Condensation level? It's not that simple to deal with a strong Qi Condensation level, and the commission will be added. Thirty percent. At the same time, there is no room for cheating in the black market. Since you are first-time offenders, I won’t bother with you anymore, so I will hand over another [-] spirit stones.” Mr. Wu was still indifferent as usual, but with a hint of a profiteer’s smile.

"His restraining technique..." Ruan Wei wanted to say that such an algorithm was unfair.Ye Shuo's real realm may be around the Qi Gathering level, mainly because his Qi Containing Technique is exceptionally good.

But then I thought about saying this, maybe Mr. Wu will take the opportunity to misinterpret it as: You can't detect it with Qi-gathering strength. For other heavy treasures, the difficulty of killing them will be doubled, and then he will be asked to add more money.At that time, I really can't refute it, I can only draw darker and darker.So when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them hard.

"Oh? How's his breath holding technique?" asked Mr. Wu.Judging by his appearance, it is obvious that he is also waiting to continue to catch Ruan Wei.

"No... nothing, nothing." Ruan Wei waved his hands quickly.

"Leave a soul imprint here, once the task is completed, we will notify you immediately."

This soul brand, on the one hand, facilitates the contact between the black market and the seller, and on the other hand, prevents the seller from disclosing information that is harmful to the black market.Once discovered, they can also impose the fastest punishment.Ruan Wei also knew the rules, left his mark as he said, and prepared to take Ruan Shi away.

"Young man, it's your turn." Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu suddenly turned to Ruan Shi.

"Me?" Ruan Shi, who has been working hard to pretend to be a transparent person, was shocked, "I didn't participate in the transaction, why do you want me?" The next such tricky handle.You know, he is cautious by nature, and even among the brothers in the Broken Star Sect, there are very few people who can make him trust wholeheartedly and exchange soul marks, let alone a stranger like Mr. Wu who met for the first time?

"Anyone who steps here, regardless of whether they have made a transaction or not, needs to leave a soul mark. This is the rule of the black market! In the end, it is just a precautionary measure. If you have no evil intentions Why bother to be guilty? I have hundreds of imprints of souls in my hands, as long as you don’t fall into my hands, I don’t bother to pay attention to a brat like you.” Mr. Wu still had the same indifferent face, but suddenly raised a wave of anger. chill.

Ruan Wei had no choice but to persuade Ruan Shi to act according to his words in order to calm things down.

In the end, Ruan Wei found out that not only all the spirit stones earned from selling information were returned, but he also posted a lot of them.As for whether Ye Shuo really has the ancient mental method in his hands, it is still unknown.This black market transaction this time can really be said to be "stealing a chicken without losing money", which made him feel so regretful that his intestines are green.

On the other side, Ye Shuo and Chu Tianyao walked all the way, but stopped in front of a remote alley.

"Several, what's the point of sneaking with us all the way?"
