Chapter 36 Entering the Black Market
Seeing Guo Fei coming, the young man ran over and handed Guo Fei a bamboo hat. "Brother, no one shows his true face wherever he goes. This is the rule. You put it on!"
Guo Fei looked at it and saw that the others were all wearing hats, so he put them on immediately. This hat just covered his head, and he could see things outside through the gaps in the hat.
The three of them said nothing and waited silently. Guo Fei did not say a word and stood beside him.
"Hey!" The two of them looked sideways at Guo Fei, and one of them snorted slightly, showing a look of surprise.
Any black market like this is not a good place. There are people in the market who secretly maintain order and everyone abides by the rules. But once they leave, gangsters and gangsters are common. The two of them saw Guo Fei wearing a casual and gorgeous military uniform, and they immediately
He didn't bring any weapons, so he couldn't help but be surprised.
There are two possibilities, either a master or a young man. However, at Guo Fei's age, they would never think that he is a master.
Guo Fei was inexperienced, so it was really inappropriate to enter the black market dressed like this. The three people around him were all different. Not only did they have weapons on their backs, but they also wore leather armor and were fully equipped.
It wasn't that Guo Fei didn't bring any weapons, but that he had received the weapon talisman in the space. When Guo Fei realized this problem, it was hard to take it out in person.
"Okay, I will play the role of a fat sheep today! Haha." Guo Fei laughed at himself in his heart.
"Chichichi!" It was almost midnight, and outside Wusong Town, three groups of firelights rushed up and flickered in the sky for a while. After a while, two more groups of firelights rushed into the sky. After waiting for a while,
Another ball of fire shot out.
The young man looked at the fire and calculated silently. After waiting for another half an hour, there was no more flickering of fire.
"Point 6! Let's go." The young man waved his hand and started to lead the way. The other three people didn't seem to know each other. They didn't go ahead so as not to leave each other's back. Instead, they waited silently. The young man seemed to have encountered this situation many times.
, ignored it, walked forward slowly, and disappeared into the darkness.
Guo Fei turned into a ninja, glanced at the three of them, and followed the young man forward. A burly man behind him couldn't help but stretched out his hand to hold the ax on his back, and stepped forward. The two behind him hesitated.
Follow side by side.
The boy was very familiar with the road. He walked towards the south of Wusong Town, walking faster and faster. After walking for about five kilometers, he descended into a dry valley and went down the river. After walking for another five kilometers, he went diagonally upwards into a dry valley.
In the valley, we climbed up a rolling hill and walked along the steep path along the hill.
At this time, I finally saw shadowy figures entering the hill from all directions.
After climbing over the hill and walking along the path to a valley, the boy stopped.
"In the middle of the mountain ahead, just go in, and give me the rest of the way fee!" The young man pointed towards the cave in front.
Guo Fei gave the boy a silver coin without saying a word, and the others readily took out the tolls without bargaining. In an unfamiliar environment, no one wanted to cause trouble.
"The entrance fee is one gold coin. No fighting is allowed after entering. Violators will die!" At the entrance of the cave, two black tower-like gatekeepers shouted in a deep voice and stretched out their hands.
"The cultivation of these two people is not weak!" Guo Fei was shocked. Although Guo Fei had no experience and could not see the depth of this person's cultivation, looking at his eyes, they were bright in the night, as if there was a bright light looming.
It is known that these two people have at least the intermediate level of Qi monks and above.
Everyone who passed by took out a gold coin and handed it over without hesitation. Guo Fei did the same. After paying a gold coin, he walked into the cave.
The first thing you see is a huge cave. There are five passages around the cave, leading to the inside of the mountain in twists and turns. On both sides of the cave and passages, stalls are lined up. On the stalls, some are lit with oil lamps, and some are lit.
There are unknown light balls, some of which have a staff inserted into them, and the ball above emits bright light.
In the cave in front of you, it seems that three big patrons have set up three simple tables. There is a sign on it, indicating that you need to collect soul crystals. You can exchange them for gold coins or spiritual stones.
Guo Fei took a closer look. One skeleton soul crystal can be exchanged for twenty gold coins, and eight skeleton soul crystals can be exchanged for one spiritual stone. The other soul crystals are calculated according to the weight of the skeleton soul crystal. Sure enough, it is better than Zhao Guohe Wu.
The purchase prices of shops in Shukeshuji Town are high.
According to this calculation, one spirit stone can be exchanged for 160 gold coins, which is higher than the price of a set of bronze armor. Spirit stones are indeed precious treasures. One spirit stone is enough for an ordinary person to live for several years.
Of course, Guo Fei would not exchange the soul crystals for spiritual stones. Naturally, it would be most cost-effective to exchange the soul crystals for materials. If the spiritual stones were exchanged for spiritual stones, they would definitely be deducted and taken advantage of, and the value would naturally be low.
Guo Fei checked. After entering the cave, everyone walked along the passage to check the stalls on both sides. Some people were carrying packages and chose a place to put their belongings after entering.
Guo Fei was extremely excited. Such a place was really novel. So he walked along the passage and looked at the items on the stalls with great interest.
There is everything on the street stalls, including iron ore, medicinal materials, spells, weapons, armor, etc. Guo Fei knows a little about iron ore, but he really doesn’t know much about other items. Guo Fei’s purpose is very clear, firstly to increase his knowledge.
, the second is to search for some dark iron, or cold iron, or a weapon suitable for use by corpse soldiers.
"How do you buy this little Pei Yuan Dan?" Guo Fei walked to a corner of the cave and saw a stall. A bright crystal ball emitted white light to illuminate the stall. Several were placed on the stall.
There are different types of elixirs in transparent crystal bottles, earthy yellow, black, and red. Some of them are faintly glowing, which seems very extraordinary. A buyer is pointing to a bottle, which contains a pill of earth.
A yellow, round pill about the size of a thumb.
"Twenty skull soul crystals!" The stall owner said coldly without raising his head, sitting in front of the stall.
“It’s too expensive!”
"Humph, it's expensive. It's a bit expensive. The most difficult thing for a warrior is to expand the meridians and temper the body. This elixir is comparable to your hard training day and night for a year, and it has no side effects. It is worth the price. This is only a first-class intermediate level
If you take the elixir for the first time, the effect will be obvious. If you have taken it before, don't waste the soul crystals. You should buy the second-grade Peiyuan elixir and take it!" the stall owner said coldly.
When Guo Fei heard this, he was tempted. There is such a thing in this world. The elixir for tempering the human body may not be of much use to others, but it is very useful to him.
Wouldn't taking such elixirs speed up one's own cultivation?
However, although twenty skull soul crystals are not a large amount for Guo Fei, Guo Fei is not a "taken advantage of". After all, he does not know the elixir. If the person just now was a "trustee", he would have been fooled.
Guo Fei wandered away and looked at other stalls. In fact, all his thoughts were focused on this elixir. There was not much time, and five or six people asked about this elixir. It seemed that this elixir was not fake, but the price was a bit high.
, they reluctantly put it down and walked away.
"It's decided, let's go!" Guo Fei walked over with excitement.
