Rebellious Contract Beast

"Huh? How is it?" Tsurumi Chuyun asked.

In the space of consciousness, Shen Yi originally wanted to nod. Although the trafficker wore a mask on his face and couldn't see what he looked like, it was just a matter of remembering the clothes he was wearing. It would not be difficult to follow the other person and take advantage of the opportunity.

But after thinking for a while, reason still prevailed. The size of those cages couldn't fit into the tunnel entrance of the ghost market. From this, it was not difficult to see that those girls had been kept in cages and prepared in advance.

If there is demand, there will be a market. This kind of thing should be solved from the root cause. Killing the trafficker will treat the symptoms but not the root cause. The next trafficker will appear. This may not be a good thing for those girls who are locked up. The appearance of the next trafficker may even make their situation worse.

It is impossible for him and the old witch to go to the haunted city to save people. After all, they are just clay bodhisattvas crossing the river and cannot save themselves.

"forget it."

"Ok?"

"I said forget it, there's no point in killing the traffickers, and I can't save them."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Tsurumi Chuyun shook his head and said nothing more. He randomly found an empty booth, took out the box from the storage space, and sat down.

The first time she set up a stall, she had no experience at all, and she couldn't save her face to go around shouting. She could only sit and wait for customers to come.

Seeing her motionless perspective, Shen Yi was dumbfounded.

"What are you doing?"

"Huh? I didn't do anything?"

"Aren't you here to sell pills?"

"I...am I selling?"

"No...this is how you do business?"

"Then what can I do?"

"You have to let people know that you are here for business, right?"

"Uh..." At this point, Tsurumi Chuyun was speechless and had to stand up and spread a layer of red cloth on the bare stall. She originally wanted to copy other people's stalls, but she could The only thing for sale was the Beast Preservation Pill, which felt a bit shabby, so she simply left it alone, which seemed a bit like a waste.

"Okay, I'm convinced!"

"I...Okay, okay, I understand. What if someone comes to ask?"

"You'd be really lucky if you could sell it."

"..." She looked around, and finally gave up. When she was a street elixir seller, she always picked people to ask in places with few people. Now there are a lot of people in this ghost market. When she meets people, she will ask, "Do you want Yun? Don’t you want the Beast Pill?" She was really embarrassed.

"Don't say it."

"I think you don't want your flower hairpin anymore."

She was startled.

Flower hairpin?
How can I not take back the things my mother left for me?
"I...I will get it back. I'll wait for a while. If it doesn't work, I'll go around and ask around, okay?"

"It's okay, what's the use of saying yes? Anyway, it's you who has the flower god hairpin..." Shen Yi was stunned before he finished speaking, for no reason, just because someone came to the stall.

"What the hell!"

"..."

The visitor was a man in purple clothes, spinning a bead chain in his hand, wearing a white mask of the same style on his face, and followed by four followers. At first glance, he was from a large family.

In addition, his voice sounds very young, probably not much different from Tsurumi Akita.

"What are you selling?"

He Jian Chuyun raised his head and became energetic, but he still said in a calm voice: "The elixir seller."

"Eh? What kind of elixir are you selling?"

"Only sell Yun Beast Dan."

"Oh, that's it." The man in purple nodded and responded, but judging from his actions, he seemed to be disappointed.

"It's interesting to find someone selling a beast-accumulating pill. How much did you sell the beast-accumulating pill for?"

Seeing that Chu Yun's voice was still calm, He replied: "18 taels."

"Humph."

When the other party heard the number, he hummed twice and left with his entourage, not even bothering to bargain.

Tsurumi Chuyun sighed, looking at the man's back and feeling a little disappointed, but having a customer come so soon gave her confidence again, and she was determined to keep the stall.

Since customers will come to your door on their own, why bother looking for it?
"I knew it." Shen Yi also hummed in his conscious space when he saw this scene.

"..."

"Little girl selling elixirs, hurry up. If you can't sell your elixirs tonight, you will be hungry."

"You're annoying! I'm ignoring you."

"Okay, okay, the emperor is not in a hurry, why is the eunuch anxious?"

"Huh?" He was stunned when he saw Chuyun and asked, "Are you a eunuch?"

"I ride a horse..."

"I was wrong, Master..."

"..."

In the gambling house, the followers crowded in the crowd looked helplessly at the man in purple in front of them.

"Why are you stunned? Hurry up and take out all the valuables on you. How many times do you want me to say this?"

Under pressure, several followers could only hand over all the money they carried, and scraped together a dozen taels of silver. The other party snatched it away, and threw it all on the gambling table the next second, shouting: Said: "I bet small!"

Many people around looked at him, and the croupier in the middle of the gambling table had a strange smile on his face. He turned around and saw that other people were also placing their chips, so he reached out and opened the dice in front of him.

"Six-four-four, big!"

Sure enough, he lost again.

In just two quarters of an hour, more than 100 taels of silver were lost. The face of the man in purple couldn't help but twist. He was obviously very lucky at the beginning... He looked back and thought about how many things he had done. I want it from my entourage, but where do they have the money?
All of them looked sad and scolded their mothers in their hearts.

This young master of ours obviously has thousands of taels of silver in his pocket, but these 20 taels of silver are not enough for gambling and he has to pay for them as servants.

This is simply a beast!

Seeing several followers hesitating for a long time, the man in purple opened his mouth to threaten, but at this time one of the followers seemed to have seen something, and he was surprised and had a touch of joy on his face.

"Master, look, isn't that Mao Yang's man?" The man pointed to a group of people not far away.

Others were overjoyed to see this.

"Young Master, you are definitely a Mao Yang person. Could it be that the auction is over?"

"Yes, I'm afraid the second master is already waiting for the young master."

The man in purple was also stunned for a moment. When he realized what he was doing, he still had the intention to continue gambling.
He quickly led his entourage to the opposite side, and shouted to the entourage behind him as he walked, with a strong hint of threat in his tone.

"When I see my dad later, no one is allowed to tell me what happened just now, do you understand?"

How dare those followers say anything?Each head nods faster than the other.

"We know Master, we won't say anything."

"What a bad luck today!"

With a wave of his hand, the man in purple quickened his pace and led the people almost rampantly through the entire gambling house and towards a spiral staircase.

But before he finished walking up the steps, the old man in white walking towards him stopped him.

"Uncle Bing." "What a gift. The second master is looking for you."

"I know, I'm going to find my dad right now."

Facing the old man in white, the young man in purple looked humble. After speaking, without waiting for a response, he led the people forward and went all the way to the auction on the second floor.

At the guardrail in front of the entrance of the auction hall, a man wearing a black mask and carrying the pressure of a superior had been waiting for a long time. When he noticed that the other party was approaching, he turned his head sharply and was frightened by just one glance. The man in purple froze.

"Dad...I'm here." Song Enci stammered, with a fear in his tone that was hard to ignore.

There was only one person in his life who had beaten him, and that was his father, who was always served with a stick every now and then.

I can't remember how many times. Maybe... the head of the family is his biological father, right?
The man looked at him for a while, then turned the jade ring on his thumb and asked flatly: "I asked you to wait for me here before the auction started. Where have you been?"

"Dad, I have something to say. It's too boring to wait for you here, so I just wanted to go down and take a walk."

"No trouble?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Four Fingers just sent someone to tell me what you just did. It's best to tell me honestly."

"Dad, are you kidding? From the beginning of the auction to now, I have never seen four fingers."

"Seriously?" He looked away from Song Enci and looked at the four followers following him.

They reacted quickly and immediately said: "Second Master, the young master is telling the truth. He really felt bored and wanted to go around and look around. He didn't do anything extraordinary?"

"..." The man was silent for a while, looking at his biological son with deep suspicion, but he had no evidence, so he could only nod.

"Let me believe you for once."

"Thank you, dad." Song Enci shouted, feeling relieved. When he saw his biological father taking the people away, he quickly followed him, acting like a good baby.

As he walked down the stairs, the man with a majestic look casually asked Ju: "Tell me, what did you see down there?"

"It's nothing. In the market, I saw someone selling a sword sealed in jade. I heard from the vendor that it was left behind by the sword god of the previous generation. There was also a gourd. People said that it contained the instantaneous element, which was used by the great thief. Mo Yang stole it from the palace, but these are all lies, and the child will naturally not be fooled."

"It's good to know."

"By the way, Dad, I also met a woman who sells elixirs, but she only sells beast-enhancing elixirs."

"...Wait a minute, what did you just say?"

The air suddenly solidified, and the man's eyes suddenly narrowed and he looked at Song Enci. It was not difficult to imagine that under the mask, his face became more serious than before.

Song Enci was a little confused: "What's wrong, dad?"

"Is there someone selling Yun Beast Pills in the ghost market?"

"Yes, they are sold cheaper than outside."

"How much does she sell for?"

"Eighteen taels of silver each."

Song Enci looked at his father a little confused at first, but soon he realized something and his eyes widened.

"Dad, that woman can't be..."

"Second Master..."

The man raised his hand, interrupted the old man in white who was about to speak, and said to Song Enci very quickly: "Enci, where is the woman who sells the Yun Beast Pill? Take me there quickly, don't let others get there first. "

"Father, come with me."

Song Enci did not dare to delay, and trotted downstairs with his father, and rushed into the market again.

……

At the same time, He Jian Chuyun found that no one had come to visit since Song Enci took people away.

Guarding the stall also requires patience. After guarding for a while, she took out an unknown book and read it while guarding, but she hadn't slept for three days, so she became drowsy as she read it.

"Old witch, if you don't get up and ask about it, your spiritual weapon will change hands!"

"How long has it been?"

"Half... an hour, right?" Shen Yi was a little unsure. He didn't have a watch or cell phone right now.

"It's still early. I'll sleep for a while and you'll wake me up later."

"As you wish." Hearing Shen Yi's voice, Hejian Chuyun relaxed slightly, closed the books in his hands, tilted his head and leaned against the pillar beside him, closing his eyes.

Shen Yi himself used his claws to hook the red filament that had just emerged from the altar, watching it fly around as he teased it, and finally opened his mouth to swallow it.

Focusing on the darkened perspective of the old witch, he shook his head and was too lazy to say anything.

If the market breaks up at five o'clock, it's still early, so it's not a big deal to let this old witch sleep for a while.

After teasing two red and yellow filaments, he couldn't help but eat them. He took another look inside the altar and planned to digest some of the red energy first. But as soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the voice of a middle-aged man, full of Magnetic and stable.

"What is this for sale?"

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment. The voice was very close, and it was obviously coming from in front of the old witch.

After reacting, he immediately shouted: "Old witch! We have guests! Wake up!"

"Old witch!"

Shen Yi almost roared, using his loudest voice, which woke up Tsurumi Chuyun.

"Huh?..." She thought she had overslept, and was about to ask the other party, but as soon as she opened her eyes, she sat up straight.

As she opened her eyes, Shen Yi also saw the light again and saw clearly the customers in front of the booth. There were four of them in total. Among them, the man with a black mask standing at the front had an extraordinary temperament and felt that he was not an ordinary person. , and besides him, there was an old man with a stooped body dressed in white behind him and two other people who looked very much like family disciples.

"Did you have anything they said?"

"They just asked you what you were selling."

"..." After thinking about it for a while, He Jian Chuyun forcibly cheered up and said in a calm voice just like when he faced Song Enci before: "I sell pills here."

"Huh?" The man standing in front of the stall had a look of surprise on his face. "Are you selling elixirs in the ghost market?"

"it's me……

The pure black mask combined with the man's dark eyes made people's vision blurry and affected their judgment. His voice was too steady. As he spoke, Tsurushi became a little panicked when he saw Chuyun, and subconsciously wanted to explain about selling Yun Beast Pill. The "reason", but as soon as she said one word, she reacted.

I didn’t ask myself, why are you explaining so much?
Unless she leaves Ju'a City tomorrow and never enters the ghost market again, otherwise the other party will be absolutely sure that she is an alchemist when they see her again, so she changed her words and said: "...there is only the Yun Beast Pill here, nothing else."

After saying that, she calmed down and looked directly into the other person's eyes. In any case, the pause just now seemed a bit weird, as if she was hiding something. In order not to appear guilty, she could only do this.

However, the man didn't seem to notice anything, and turned to look at the old man in white behind him, who also smiled.

"Look what I'm doing? Aren't you worried that the beast-enhancing pills in the alchemy hall have been sold out? Now there happens to be beast-preserving pills here, so you can buy them for the juniors. I'm getting older, and wrinkles will appear on my body soon. If you don’t use it, you can’t use it.”

"Is that what you said?"

"Humph, it's not my money that was spent."

He didn't know what the expression on the man's mask was, so he turned around and asked Tsurumi Chuyun: "How many Beast-Enhancing Pills do you have here?"

"Only one."

"How much do you sell one for?"

"18 taels."

"This……"

"16 taels is fine, that's the lowest price." (End of chapter)
