Chapter 37 The mysterious shop in the black market
Ji Xun was surprised for a moment, was she asking herself?
Apparently so.
He was very confused and alert, but he also responded: "Yeah. Just ask."
Ji Xun confirmed that the two of them had not crossed paths.
In Innocence City, any approach from a stranger should not be taken carelessly.
This woman's intuition was very keen, as if she had seen through his thoughts and didn't care at all.
In the innocent city, there is no such vigilance. The grass on the graves is already three meters high.
She said directly with an indifferent tone: "If you really need it, you can go to the 'Silver Star Mystery Shop' in the black market on Anyu Street. Just say that Dong Qi introduced me."
Ah, does she really know?
Ji Xun didn't know why this unknown woman would be so kind to introduce her to him.
Any other purpose?
It doesn’t look like it.
That person from the fourth young master of the Cao family?
No.
If you really want to recognize him, you must directly attack him, there is no need to beat around the bush and create any traps.
Ji Xun didn't understand, and didn't think it was meaningful to ask more.
“Thank you.”
He responded politely and walked out of the store.
The woman in leather clothes didn't care at all. She didn't even look up at the photos in the ancient books.
It's like giving a piece of bread to someone in need.
It’s hard to say that it’s exciting.
Ji Xun walked out of the store thinking about the scene just now.
He still couldn't figure out why a complete stranger would give him a hint.
Is he the shill from some Silver Star store?
People with that kind of top-notch mechanical equipment would not be like that.
As he walked, the idea in his mind became stronger and stronger, and he still planned to go and have a look.
What if there really is?
"So there is a black market in Anyu Street?"
Ji Xun has some advice.
He thought he was visiting the black market in Innocence City.
After all, the entire city is a crime capital, and any market is not a serious market.
But according to what the woman just said, there seems to be a special black market in Innocence City?
Ji Xun naturally wants to take a look.
But where is Anyu Street?
Two hours later.
Ji Xun came to the intersection of Lanni District and Tonglou District in Beicheng.
According to the information I heard before, this should be "Dark Rain Street".
“It’s really hard to find”
Ji Xun muttered as he looked at the dark street in front of him.
He wasn't familiar with the city and didn't have a map. Finally, he tried his best to inquire about it and found this place.
There are no large factories near the Mud District. With a small number of people, the original appearance of the large ruins has been preserved, giving it a sense of magical decay.
There is no difference between the early morning and afternoon street scenes in the underground city. There are no street lights, and the light nearby is very dark, like dusk approaching the dark night.
There is a pungent smell in the air, which is the exhaust gas discharged from the alchemy potion factory. Such heavily polluting factories are usually located in places with few people.
Ji Xun walked over, and there were rusty iron fences everywhere on the street. Even residents rarely chose this kind of neighborhood where gas masks are required at all times.
As we walked deeper into the lights, the streets became narrower and narrower. The dim lights illuminated the low red-brick houses that looked like haunted houses. White smoke hissed everywhere in the alley. It’s broken steam pipes that litter the decaying streetscape.
While walking, I suddenly heard the sound of a whistle, like an intercity train passing between the buildings, and a white mist emerged from the ground in front of me.
But there was no sign of the train.
Ji Xun walked over and saw that the train was still twenty meters below. It turned out that he was still on the covered bridge.
An underground market appeared in front of me.
Various steel-structured buildings have erected small houses, and there are shops there.
There are far fewer pedestrians here than Hunters Place on Gro Street, but instead of making people feel deserted, it is full of mystery.
Ji Xun listened carefully and heard the sound of rushing water.
Looking carefully, there seems to be a raging underground river hidden in the thick fog-filled depths next to the market.
“There really is a black market.”
Ji Xun saw those shops. Although the signs were inconspicuous, like small workshops, the atmosphere alone gave people the feeling that there was good stuff here.
He looked around and walked over.
The various card shops, machine shops, material shops, and gun shops give people the feeling that this is a huge contraband market.
If you look closely, the items for sale are much wilder!
Ji Xun just glanced at it casually. The samples hanging outside the machine shops were all kinds of obsolete military equipment that the hunters said were difficult to obtain. Those displayed in the windows of gun shops are all kinds of heavy firearms with exaggerated shapes!
There are also things like [plague bombs], [distortion bombs], and [annihilation bombs]. These are not only dangerous to the enemy, but also highly polluting banned ammunition to themselves and the environment.
These are contraband items that other shops will not sell, but the shop here actually sells them openly?
There are also various highly lethal violent potions, psychedelic potions, and alchemical poisons in the potion shop
Ji Xunzhen's eyes were opened.
How can I describe this feeling? The products sold in ordinary shops outside are like grenades, but missiles are sold here!
It turns out that the same is true in Innocence City. The rules are never for everyone, but for ordinary people who cannot exercise their privileges.
He was suddenly looking forward to it.
It seems that really good stuff can be found here.
“What a great place.”
Ji Xun’s eyes grew hot as he wanted to buy anything here.
But looking at the price, that scorching heat was instantly poured cold water on.
Sure enough, it’s a good thing, but it also comes with a frightening price.
Ji Xun walked, observing his surroundings.
Not only is the shop special here, but the customers coming and going are also mysterious.
Most of them covered their faces with windbreakers and hats, or wore cloaks. In short, few people showed their true faces.
Ji Xun also wore a gas mask and walked on the street inconspicuously.
Soon, he stopped.
I turned my head and looked, and on the wooden board at the door of the shop in front of me, there was a small shop "Silver Star Mysterious Material Shop" written casually in black charcoal.
If he hadn’t looked carefully, he would have almost missed it.
That’s it?
It doesn't look too high-end.
Ji Xun looked at the shop and walked in with a skeptical attitude.
The house is very small, only about ten square meters.
In the already small shop, several rows of cabinets took up most of the room, and even the bones of unknown monsters hung from the ceiling.
But the strange thing is that the store looks full, but there is almost nothing that can be considered a commodity.
More like a grocery warehouse.
Behind the counter, a skinny middle-aged man wearing glasses was concentrating on grinding an unknown black powder and ignored the customer at all.
Ji Xun asked: "Hello, boss, may I ask if you have any of this?"
But before he could finish his words, the middle-aged man immediately said something like "Hello, boss, do you have anything to say?" The tone interrupted him: "No."
Hey, this is not the right beginning.
No business to do?
Ji Xun didn’t know that the black market had black market rules.
Almost every store here has its own secret supply channel and sales network. Without acquaintances to guide them, store owners will not sell goods to strangers.
Ji Xun soon realized that he might not be asking the right question.
But he really doesn’t know the rules of the black market.
Thinking of the leather-clad woman he met before, he said uncertainly: "I was introduced by Dong Qi."
"Dong Qi?"
Hearing him say directly When the name came out, the eyes of the thin, middle-aged man wearing glasses twitched inexplicably.
He put down the grinder in his hand and looked carefully at the guest in front of him.
Not many people can call this name directly. What is this man's background?
At the same time, Ji Xun was also sizing up the shop owner, looking at the sudden look, and nodded: "Yes."
His intuition told him that there might be something wrong with the name.
But he didn't tell lies, that's what the man said.
Hearing this, a strange look flashed across the shopkeeper's eyes, and he obviously judged that this was true.
He didn't seem to understand who could call "Dong Qi" directly, but he also took the initiative to ask: "What did you say you wanted just now?"
"I want to ask if you are breathing here. "Fa"
Seeing the change in the shop owner's attitude, Ji Xun also guessed that "Dong Qi's" face might have worked.
Oh.
So that’s all.
Before he could finish speaking, the shop owner said neatly: "The Black Iron Breathing Technique costs 180,000 yuan. Just tell me a name and I'll find it for you. It doesn't matter. The Silver Breathing Technique costs 1.5 million. The store currently only has [Storm Breathing Technique] and [Thunder Breathing Technique]." Secret Cultivation] and [Breath of Fire]. As for the other ones, you need to make a reservation. The difficulty of obtaining the goods will depend on the price. Delivery will be within one month."
The tone is very casual, as if it is. A very ordinary product.
“.”
Ji Xungang still suspected that this shop did not look like a serious shop, but at this moment he was a little confused by the series of breathing method names reported by the store.
Any name for the Black Iron Breathing Method?
Also,
Bao. Storm breathing method?
The "Big Sword" Bernie I just heard in the morning said swornly that [Storm Breathing Technique] is the secret of their Storm Hunters. Can you just sell it here?
Is it the same name?
Ji Xun thought about it and thought it was not the case.
There are only a few silver breathing methods with recognizable names on the market, and they probably don’t have the same name.
It turns out that it’s not that I can’t buy it, but that I didn’t find the right way.
And listening to the last half of the guy's words, it seems that other breaths can be booked?
The tone seemed to be that whatever the guests wanted, they could almost get it. And the way to get it is not a formal way at first glance.
Damn it, the road is so wild!
What is the origin of this shop?
Sometimes, when one’s knowledge is suddenly refreshed, it always makes people feel unreal.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Ji Xun's mind for a moment.
He looked at this inconspicuous shop again from the corner of his eye, and an instinctive thought came to his mind: Is this a liar in front of him?
Think of a street outside. This is a black market.
Black shop?
Ji Xun remained calm, thinking that he had nothing worth deceiving, and some thoughts came to his mind: How about inspecting the goods first to see how strong this guy is?
Seeing his expression, the shop owner asked proactively: "Didn't you like it?"
He had a preconceived idea that the person who introduced him naturally didn't want anything ordinary. Said: "If it is a rarer breathing method, it may be a bit troublesome."
Rare?
The legendary golden breathing method?
It's just a little troublesome.
It’s not impossible!
Ji Xun Ting once again refreshed his impression of the shop owner in front of him.
He remained calm and stated his needs directly: "Well, I need a breathing method that can absorb multiple elements at the same time."
If it was still a single-element breathing method, regardless of whether it was affordable or not, even if it was a silver secret method, he felt it was a bit useless.
And if this shop owner is really unreliable, he also wants to see what tricks this guy can come up with.
“???”
Hearing Ji Xun’s request, the shop owner narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately put away his contempt.
As expected, the person who introduced me is not an ordinary person.
People who need that kind of secret technique must have a very special career sequence.
He didn't mean to pry into the guests' privacy. This is a taboo in the black market. After a moment of reflection, he said directly: "There is also the breathing method you mentioned."
Ji Xunyi Listen, look slightly sideways: Is this really the case?
The shop owner added: "I happen to have a collection of fragments of the breathing method here, and I don't know what it's called. But this breathing method can absorb at least seven kinds of elements. It's just that the price is a little expensive. ”
As he spoke, he took out three fingers.
Ji Xun asked tentatively: "Three million?"
The shop owner said it was a bit expensive, so naturally it was not 30,000, but 300,000.
When he heard the price, he immediately felt unreliable.
Silver’s breathing technique is only over 100, what breathing technique of yours is more than 300?
An unknown breathing method?
The more mysterious it is, the lower its credibility becomes.
The shop owner was noncommittal, with a flash of wisdom in his eyes, and just said: "The result of the appraiser is that this may be a gold-quality breathing method, and its origin is even related to the old demon god. Related. Although there are only fragments, if you have reached level 6 of magic power, theoretically, the level of magic power is equivalent to that of ordinary people, so the price is definitely not high for the sake of the person who introduced you. I won’t mention it at all.”
“.”
Although Ji Xun was suspicious, his expression did not change.
I can’t afford this huge sum of money, and I’m not prepared to believe it so easily.
Before Ji Xun could suspect that the other party was a liar, the shop owner turned over his hand and took out a brochure.
He added: "And don't blame the old man for being too talkative. The source of this secret method is very sensitive. You should know who it is. So even if someone learns it, it is best not to let outsiders know."
“.”
Ji Xun knows nothing!
He also guessed that he probably thought that he really knew "Dong Qi", and then he should know some common sense at the corresponding level.
But looking at the booklet handed to me for inspection, I realized that this store was not joking!
Ji Xun calmly took the booklet, turned a page at random, and his pupils shrank slightly.
He is now proficient in the [Great Darkness Breathing Technique] and probably knows the principles of the breathing technique.
He is very perceptive, so he can see at a glance that this booklet is definitely true!
The breathing practice formula recorded above is most likely a secret method that can absorb multiple elements at the same time to condense the power of the spell.
"It's actually true?"
Ji Xun was really surprised at this time.
He thought that the other party really wanted to make up such a breathing method just to deceive people. The liar was definitely a master in the practice of Kung Fu!
Now he handed it over so generously,
At this moment, Ji Xun already believed it 90% in his heart.
It can be seen that not only now, but also what this store said the whole time is true!
At the same time, he also took a deep breath in his heart.
Hiss~
What is the origin of this store and has so much energy?
Who is this "Dong Qi"? He has such a big reputation?
It must be some big shot in Sinless City.
Ji Xun thought about the leather-clad woman he met at the classics shop before. It seemed that he had a good destiny for no reason?
I have the aura of a bad luck gambler, and I thought that 90% of it was a scam. You want me to get this pie from the sky?
Ji Xun was also puzzled at the same time. Isn't this store afraid that he would just know the name and come here to cheat?
He really didn’t know that no one dared to mention some people’s names on the black market.
Otherwise, the consequences will be serious.
After turning two pages of the book, Ji Xun closed it.
Although he has a photographic memory, if the store doesn't mind him flipping through it a little more, he still can't see the little details. If he shamelessly reads it carefully, he might be able to memorize it.
But Ji Xun had no intention of taking advantage of others in this regard.
When people treat you sincerely, there is no hypocrisy in return.
Ji Xun was able to see this secret method because of the favor of "Dong Qi". If you really want to be a high-ranking gentleman, you will fall into the lower ranks.
But I am really short of money.
At this moment, he had no doubt that the price of "three million" was too high.
On the contrary, he felt that it was lower than the market price!
The price of [Storm Breathing Technique] is only 1.5 million. Although this is the market price, if it cannot be sold, it should theoretically be more expensive.
Looking at it this way, this golden fragment is definitely worth the price of a favor.
And this breathing method is absolutely priceless for those who agree with it.
Ji Xun can already imagine the efficiency of his breathing method increasing by N times.
But he really has no money.
The only valuable ones he has are the Blackwater Mercenary Group cards from before, but he estimated that they could probably be sold for hundreds of thousands.
The [Second Alienated Heart of Gambling Dog] is a good thing, but taking these things out will reveal your identity!
Ji Xun was in a dilemma for a while.
Looking at his expression, the store owner was not sure what the introduced customer was thinking.
When Ji Xun was thinking about how to raise money, or whether to risk selling something, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
Enlightenment Display: "Mystic Spell Saving Throw"
He immediately realized that someone had just used a mysterious technique like divination.
I am being targeted!
