The provincial capital is huge and is divided into several large and small urban areas.
In order to facilitate his memory, Xu Yan directly looked at the map to distinguish them by location.
The Warrior Black Market is located in an abandoned mountain air raid shelter in the north of the city.
According to Luo Xing, because that place is adjacent to the outskirts of the city, the flow of people is quite large. Some areas are also used for business and even as chess and card rooms, so it is relatively hidden.
Nothing can be seen from the outside, but the inside is like a small world in the mountains extending in all directions. It is said that many people have been staying there for many years.
Xu Yan rushed to the nearby air-raid shelter and saw tourists and attractions. Even a large market on the outskirts of the city was not far away.
It really feels like the most dangerous place is the safest place.
However, Xu Yan was still puzzled. He had asked Luo Xing before. Since the black market for martial artists was so large, why didn't the martial arts association and the martial arts sects in the provincial capital know about it?
Luo Xing smiled and did not answer, and only told Xu Yan one fact. The air-raid shelter where the warrior Heisi was located almost ran through the entire mountain, with dozens of entrances and exits!
And the largest entrance and exit is actually in the hands of the Wushu Association!
This matter is not a secret, and the martial arts association's statement to the outside world is that it took control of these portals in order to control and eliminate those black-name martial artists.
Since it is an external statement, it naturally has a meaning behind it.
It is not difficult for Xu Yan to guess that the truth behind these is that part of the black market is the industry of the Wushu Association!
This may seem surprising, but it makes sense if you think about it carefully!
After all, yesterday evening, the ghost old man mentioned an explanation that could just explain this.
The guy said, so what if he is a black-name martial artist? He is not a black-name martial artist from Dongshan Province, and the Dongshan Martial Arts Association will not easily pursue him.
So, the black market is clearly a trading place for everyone, including the martial arts association!
As long as the martial arts association is not offering a bounty to a shady martial artist, the local martial arts association will not search aggressively.
For foreign martial artists with unknown reputations, the local martial arts association can sit back and ignore them, or arrest them depending on the situation. No matter what, there will be no loss.
After all, to a certain extent, the gathering of foreign black martial artists has actually prospered the black market, which must be beneficial to the local martial arts association.
Most of the entrances and exits of air-raid shelters are chess and card rooms. After all, this place is warm in winter and cool in summer, so it is very suitable for gathering.
Xu Yan followed Luo Xing's instructions and found the chess and card room called Sanqian. After walking around inside, he pushed through a side door.
There were two strong men in the side door. Seeing that they were strangers, they immediately stood up and secretly said on guard: "What are you doing? Go outside to play cards. This is a place to rest!"
"Please open the door!" Xu Yan smiled, took out a wad of cash and handed it over.
Luo Xing said that in this black market, the 'tickets' for different entrances and exits are different. Some only require payment, and the prices are also different.
If you want to enter through an entrance controlled by the Wushu Association, you must be led by someone from the Wushu Association, and you must go through identity verification and registration.
In short, this warrior black market is hidden, but not too hidden. It is basically semi-open.
The two strong men took the money, relaxed slightly, raised their eyebrows and said, "Who are you looking for when you open the door?"
"Looking for Heishui." Xu Yan smiled. In fact, he was not sure if there was Heishui. It might just be a secret code.
The other two nodded, and one of them opened the cabinet next to him and said, "Choose a mask for yourself. Do you know the rules? If you get into trouble after entering, it has nothing to do with us!"
"Of course!" Xu Yan nodded, randomly selected a half-face mask and put it on.
Immediately, another person opened the curtain on the wall, revealing a coded door. After entering the code, the thick door opened, revealing a long, quiet passage, palely illuminated by incandescent lights.
"Thank you!" Xu Yan nodded in greeting and entered directly without hesitation.
The two strong men waited for him to enter, and then closed the heavy air-raid shelter partition door. The passage suddenly became quiet, completely blocking out the clattering and shouting from the chess and card room outside.
Xu Yan stood in the passage for a moment, not sensing the presence of Qi nearby, so he raised his feet and walked forward on his own.
After walking out for a long time, the lights became dim. Even looking around, there was only one light at a long distance in front of us, making the passage even more dark and dark.
Finally, after turning a corner, the space suddenly opened up a lot, but Xu Yan still didn't see the appearance of the market. Instead, there were scattered people gathering, either lowering their heads and whispering or laughing exaggeratedly. It seemed to be gaining some popularity.
Xu Yan continued to move forward, causing many people around him to look over and frown.
Suddenly, a thin middle-aged man jumped out, stroking his beard like a bunch of rat whiskers, his small eyes rolling and smiling: "Friend, do you want a guide?"
"Guide?" Xu Yan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect such a thing to exist in this black market.
"That's right, guide!" The other party smiled brightly, "It's criss-crossed here, and the gathering areas are relatively scattered. There are so many side roads, and it's easy to go astray without anyone to guide you."
"Look at you walking over secretly, I guess you were just introduced? I really need a guide!"
Xu Yan looked at the other party, but he didn't see any hostility or malice. He couldn't help but smile: "What's the price? What can you do with me?"
The mustache was stunned for a moment, and his smile suddenly became brighter, "The price is easy to negotiate, cash secret medicine, heavenly materials, earthly treasures and spiritual weapons, I want whatever you give me!"
"But don't worry, I, Hu San, am a fastidious person, and I have a reputation in the Dongshan black market. If my friend can trust me, let's just wait and wait until you find what you are looking for, and then reward me with some benefits!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the laughter of the men could be heard from the table next to him.
"I said to Hu San, you haven't been out for a long time, your eyesight is not working well, right? What are you trying to do?"
"He can't be blindly positive. He ate the wrong thing last time and got angry. He wants to save money to buy the secret medicine."
"Don't worry Hu San, this is not a big customer. We won't compete with you. Haha, why don't you find a warrior? This is obviously a doctor!"
Xu Yan's heart moved slightly. He looked at Hu San and found that his energy was indeed a bit scattered.
It seems that these people have been hanging around here all year round, and their strength is not very high. The average level is just a high-level Qi Jin.
But what was a bit surprising was that, hearing what they said, a doctor also came back here.
Hu San turned around and slapped those people, then muttered in a low voice: "A bunch of idiots know nothing!"
"How dare a doctor come to the black market alone? It's not easy when my friends see it. Is it your first time to enter the black market? You are not afraid at all. You are confident in your appointment!"
Xu Yan was happy when he heard this, but he didn't expect this guy to have very good eyesight. He couldn't help but smile and said: "How do you know this is my first time entering the black market?"
Hu Sangong cupped his hands and said: "There are some differences after all. When we eat this meal, we must pay attention to the difference, otherwise we will become a bastard like them!"
"So, you are not such a bastard?" Xu Yan smiled.
"Of course not!" Hu San straightened his back and said, "We have something to pursue!"
"What are you pursuing?" Xu Yan raised his eyebrows curiously.
"Pursue true love!" Hu San said with joy, "Everyone has the right to pursue true love, and of course I do too!"
"And the one I like is too beautiful and sassy... It's a pity that she doesn't like me."
Hu San became depressed again as he spoke, sighing repeatedly: "That's why I have to work hard and improve my level. Wait until one day I become Hua Jin..."
Xu Yan was stunned. He never expected that the first person he met in the black market would be a love-struck person?
This immediately confused him. He felt that this black market was a little different from what he imagined!
However, Xu Yan also realized a problem. He originally thought that the warriors in the black market were all black-name warriors.
Now it seems that is not the case, at least this Hu San doesn't look like him.
Moreover, they also have direct pursuits in life, as well as love and hatred, but they are not all evil people.
"Come on!" Xu Yan thought about it seriously and smiled: "It's rare to have the courage to pursue true love these days. I'm optimistic about you, you have a great future!"
"Come on, take me around!"
"My friend understands me!" Hu San's eyes brightened up, they were really shining, as if he was surprised to meet his soulmate.
"Let's go, let me introduce you as we go!"
Hu San was full of enthusiasm and ignored the sneers of those next to him, and walked straight forward with Xu Yan.
Xu Yan followed happily, quietly sensing the surroundings, but did not find any noteworthy Qi for a long time.
He was a little confused. Is there no experts in the black market in this provincial capital? It shouldn't be!
