Volume 1 Chapter 144 Black Mountain Bazaar
Compared with Qin Xiao Yu, Wu Qi's thoughts are undoubtedly much simpler.
He had been humiliated several times in front of Qin Yun, and the face of the young master was completely lost. Adding to that, he was jealous of Qin Yun's success and good fortune, day and night thinking of nothing but wanting to chop Qin Yun into pieces to vent his anger.
So Wu Qi fully agreed with Qin Xiao's opinion, and even had a kind of schadenfreude in his heart to watch the infighting among the Qin family.
"This matter I won't participate in..." Feng Wujie stood up, smiled faintly and said: "Thanks for the hospitality today, Qin brother. Another day, I'll invite you to drink!"
"Alright, I'll send Big Brother Feng off!" Qin Xiao Yue also quickly stood up.
"No need!" Feng Wujie walked to the door and suddenly turned back, saying: "I remember that Suji Wine House in Heishanfang City is not bad. As long as you spend money, you can find many people who are willing to do things for you. We fellow disciples cannot kill each other!"
Qin Xiao Yue was stunned, Feng Wuji left the room without stopping and disappeared in an instant.
"This guy..." Qin Xiao Yue woke up and gritted his teeth in disdain.
Feng Wujie was clearly dissatisfied with Qin Yun, but still pretended to be dignified and righteous, which was extremely hypocritical, and only hinted at it in the end.
But despite his disdain, Qin Xiao Yue had to admit that Feng Wu Ji's suggestion was good.
In Tiān Chéng Jiàn Zōng, the people they could mobilize were just a few followers brought from their family. Whether or not they could take down Qín Yún was still uncertain, and it would be too easy to expose their identity.
If it's hiring someone from the Black Mountain Sect, giving money to get things done without leaving any traces, and it's outside the Sword Sect's mountain gate. The only way is to kill and eliminate all evidence, leaving no future troubles.
"Wen Bao, Wu Shi-di, you two immediately go to Hei Shan Fang market, hire people from Su Ji wine house to help!" Qin Xiao-yue said decisively: "As long as we can kill Qin Yun, money is no problem!"
His words were full of murderous intent, and the cold light in his eyes made the entire hall seem to suddenly enter a severe winter!
Qin Wenbing and Wu Qidun looked at each other in unison: "The two of us are going?"
"This matter is not trivial. I'll only be at ease if you two go together!" Qin Xiao Yue coldly smiled and said: "I've paid the invitation fee!"
He picked up a wooden box that had been prepared in advance and placed it on the table, opening the lid to reveal a large number of Fire Spirit Jade blocks stacked inside, with at least over a hundred pieces layered on top of each other!
Qin Wenbing and Wu Qi sucked in a breath of cool air. They had never seen so many Huo Lingyu, enough to buy off an innate expert!
"After it's done, I'll give each of you an equal share!"
The same one!
Qin Wenbing and Wu Qi looked at each other. They both saw greed in each other's eyes.
Sect contributions, Gongfa, Dan medicine, Fu Lu, weapons... everything they wanted could be exchanged for Lingyu, and Qin Wenbing's generosity left them speechless.
In fact, the two of them did not know that at this moment Qin Xiao's heart was also bleeding. These spiritual jade were hard to come by and were his expenses for several years in the future after he left the Tian Cheng Sword Sect. Now they had all been used up, and the days ahead would definitely be very difficult.
But as long as Qin Yun is killed, all the sacrifices are worth it!
"Alright Qin big brother, let's set off to Heishanfang City immediately." Wu Qi pressed down on the wooden box and patted his chest, saying: "Guaranteed that little guy won't live past tomorrow!"
People die for wealth; birds perish for food. Having a box of Huo Ling Jade as payment to run an errand is nothing, anyway it's not like I have to personally deal with Qin Yun.
Qin Xiao Yue smiled with satisfaction, his eyes gleaming with an unspeakable ferocity: "I'll send four attendants to protect you, be careful on your way, this time Qin Yun must not return to the sect!"
Qin Wenbing and Wu Qi's eyes met again. The two nodded in unison.
Under the cover of night, who knows how many conspiracies are taking place.
……
The next morning, Qin Yun left Cloud Water Villa and headed for Hei Shan Fang City.
Heishan Fang City is nearly two hundred miles away from Xuanwu City, with its back against the vast Dragon Mountain, located at the intersection of Yanyun State and Xihai State. It happens to be on the edge of the sphere of influence of the two major sects, Tiānchéng and Běimíng.
Beiming Zong and Tiānchéng Jiàn Zōng are both among the top ten sects of the nine states, but its influence is greater than that of Tiānchéng Jiàn Zōng, extending to the two major states of Xīhǎi and Mòběi.
The Northern Ming Sect has many followers, and its disciples are known for their unconventional behavior. They are both righteous and evil, and have a complex relationship with the Wu Sect, which is why they are also referred to as the "Evil Sect". Their reputation on the vast continent is not very good.
The Tiancheng Sword Sect and the Beiming Sect have no direct conflict of interest, but for thousands of years, the disciples under their gates have been fighting each other, maintaining only a superficial peace.
Not far from Heishanfang City, there are also side doors and left paths such as Yunyi and Chidan, which have created the prosperity and prosperity of Heishanfang City. Various forces have inserted their feet, plus lone rangers and thieves, fish and dragons mixed together, never peaceful.
Qin Yun sped along the small road leading to Yinfeng Gorge, using not Floating Light Flash but rather the Thousand Mile Divine Stride most suited for traveling.
In less than two hours, he saw the canyon standing tall between the great mountains in the distance, and then turned southwest into the vast plain.
Even without a map, it's not difficult to find Heishanfang Town. Just head west along the Manglong Mountain Range and you won't go wrong.
All the way, there was no one on the road, and only rolling hills and dense forests on the endless plains. Occasionally, he encountered a few small rivers that could not stop his footsteps.
As noon approached, Qin Yun finally saw the faint smoke rising in the distance, and also Hei Shan City.
In the earliest times, Heishan City was a place of exile for prisoners of the Great Yan Empire. Later, it gradually evolved into a haven for refugees, criminals, thieves and bankrupt merchants who escaped from imperial rule, also attracting disciples from nearby sects to come and seek pleasure and trade in goods they needed.
In the end, it became the largest bazaar within a radius of hundreds of miles, with many shops and workshops built, forming the scale of today.
However, in Hei Shan Fang City, justice and righteousness did not exist, only the most basic order.
Any stolen goods or contraband can be openly displayed for sale, but once you leave the market area, no one can guarantee your safety. Therefore, coming here to dig up treasures and make transactions is a risky business, and from time to time, there will be cases of black eating black, murder, and robbery.
The city of Heishan does not have high walls, and the houses are built on the mountain in a scattered but orderly manner. The plain area to the south has been cultivated into many farmlands, and from the surface, it is not much different from an ordinary city, and it is also defenseless.
But when you really enter this mountain city, you will immediately find the difference in it.
Most of the people walking on the street are sword-wielding warriors, fierce bandits and thugs swaggering through the streets, merchants and nobles surrounded by attendants, and even some veiled witches, with hardly any ordinary citizens in sight.
There are still many beggars huddled on street corners, blankly watching the passersby, some of whom nimbly weave through the crowds to beg.
They often have dirty hands and feet, once caught, they will be beaten to death, no one will sympathize with them.
The most striking were the young and vigorous sect disciples, wearing tight-fitting clothes and long swords at their waists with name tags, rushing past in groups of three to five, and most people couldn't avoid them.
While on the side of the street, there are many stalls set up, some of which are set up by the roadside shops themselves, but more are just casual blankets and rags, with a mess of things scattered about waiting for people to take the bait.
Qin Yun, although it was his first time in Hei Shan Fang City, the information he had obtained by spending a piece of Ling Jade was still very useful, so he ignored the tempting calls of the street vendors and went straight to the center of the city.
This is the real essence of HeiShan FangCun, within a radius of several hundred meters of open space, hundreds of large and small tents are erected, merchants gather together in prosperity, and the goods sold are far more numerous and better than those on the street stalls.
Herbs, minerals, elixirs, talismans, weapons... even demonic beasts and slaves are all present, with people constantly coming and going.
A magnificent building of over ten zhang high stands in the center, with intricate carvings and luxurious decorations, under the surrounding of many tents, it is extremely eye-catching.
This is a big auction market in HeiShan Fang Shi, it's said that there are auctions every night, attracting people from all over to come and bid.
Qin Yun walked straight to the entrance of the grand auction house and finally stopped in front of a jade stone table.
"Sir, are you here to consign an item or apply for bidding qualification?" A middle-aged man sitting behind the stone table smiled and said: "Our Jibao Pawnshop will hold a grand auction tonight, at which time many rare treasures will be auctioned."
Behind him stood two robust swordsmen, their four cold and stern eyes vigilantly staring at Qin Yun.
Qin Yun knew that the big auction house was not monopolized by a single force, but rather seven business houses took turns hosting auctions, and the competition between them was extremely fierce.
He certainly didn't come to apply for the auction qualification, because that would require at least a few thousand spiritual jade as his net worth, and he couldn't even afford the deposit to participate in the auction.
"I request your esteemed company to bid on a batch of talismans..."
Qin Yun took out two thick stacks of talismans from his bag and placed them on the table.
Seeing the talisman brought out by Qin Yun, the middle-aged man's eyebrows slightly furrowed, revealing a look of difficulty. He said tactfully: "Guest, I'm really sorry, our Treasure Pavilion only auctions talismans above the cloud symbol level. As for yellow symbols, it's suggested that you rent a stall to sell them instead."
The two swordsmen behind him both showed a mocking expression.
Nor does he know where the rural guy came from, actually holding a stack of yellow symbols asking for a substitute shot, thinking that the famous Treasure Pavilion is a small store in the countryside?
"My talisman is quite special, please take another look." Qin Yun said calmly: "I believe it won't disappoint you."
The middle-aged man's face suddenly turned ugly, and he scolded impatiently: "How can you not listen to advice? What's so good about the yellow talisman? Do you think I don't understand?"
