Xu Chunniang was about to go to the auction. She had just taken a few steps, but she was keenly aware that someone was following her behind her.
She just came to Guanshan City and just visited a few shops. How could she be targeted?
Could it be that when she came out of the cross-border teleportation formation not long ago, the nobleman who wanted to see her sent his guards to come here?
If they are really those people, their movements are really fast!
Xu Chunniang pretended not to know, and after wandering around the city, she turned around and walked out of the city.
Fighting is prohibited in the city. Now that these people have touched this place, we must find a way to deal with them.
Unexpectedly, seeing her walking towards the outside of the city, the people behind her lost their composure and actually showed up and stopped her.
"Fellow Taoist in front, please stay."
Xu Chunniang paused, turned her head and looked behind her, and couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw that the person calling her was a short demon who was thin and about three feet tall.
Could it be that she guessed wrongly and that this person was not the guard sent by that noble man?
With this thought in her mind, Xu Chunniang did not relax her vigilance, "I don't seem to know you, do I?"
The dwarf demon smiled and nodded, "I am a broker. I have noticed you since you entered Guanshan City. Have you bought what fellow Taoist wants?"
Hearing this, Xu Chunniang was quite surprised.
She thought she had good sense of people and acted cautiously, but she didn't expect that from the time she entered the city to now, someone had been staring at her, but she failed to notice it!
Thinking of this, her eyes turned cold and her tone was a little unkind, "You have been following me all the way?"
As a broker, the Dwarf Demon has already become very good at observing people's emotions. He quickly explained after hearing this.
"Don't get me wrong, fellow Taoist, I only followed you after you left the trading company. The reason why I know your whereabouts is because I am not the only one who is eyeing you..."
Xu Chunniang learned from Dwarf Mo that he belonged to an organization in the city that made a living by reselling information and cheating people.
In the organization, there is a group of people who keep an eye on the new faces appearing in the city.
Once it is determined that there are objects worth trading among these strangers, the organization will arrange for personnel to contact them.
This dwarf demon was the one arranged by the organization to make a deal with her.
After listening to Dwarf Demon's explanation, Xu Chunniang's expression returned to calm. It turned out that there had been many changes of people staring at her, no wonder she didn't notice anything.
She had hit a wall in the business. If these people could give her what she wanted, there was nothing wrong with cooperating with them.
Thinking of this, she looked at the dwarf devil, "Do you know what I want?"
The Dwarf Demon laughed when he heard this and said, "Even the major chambers of commerce don't have something. I think what my fellow Taoist wants is definitely not an easy thing.
But since we are here to eat, even if we are 100% able to get what fellow Taoists want, we do have some special channels through which we can take fellow daoists to try our luck. Let’s see if you can trust us. . "
Xu Chunniang was a little moved. She knew in her heart that going to the auction house would probably be in vain.
The guards sent by that noble man may arrive at Guanshan City at any time, and she is destined not to stay in this city for a long time.
Even if there was something she needed at the auction, she might not be able to wait this long.
"How do you charge?"
Dwarf Demon replied, "If the transaction is successful, we will charge a 10% commission. If the transaction fails, we will only charge a hard fee of 20,000 magic crystals, and we have to collect the 20,000 hard fee in advance."
The hard work fee of 20,000 magic crystals is not cheap, not to mention the 10% commission required for a successful transaction.
The soul-nourishing holy object that Xu Chunniang wants is probably worth more than one million, and 10% is one hundred thousand.
She frowned, "So expensive? If I don't find what I want, wouldn't the 20,000 magic crystals be wasted?"
Xu Chunniang has a lot of magic crystals on her body, and 20,000 magic crystals is just a drop in the bucket. But since she doesn’t reveal her wealth when she goes out, she naturally behaves as low-key as possible.
The dwarf devil said neither humble nor arrogantly, "The channels we introduce will never let you suffer a loss. Even if the transaction fails to be completed smoothly, it will definitely be worth the money."
Xu Chunniang looked embarrassed, thought for a long time, then reluctantly nodded, took out 20,000 magic crystals and handed them to Dwarf Demon.
"Okay, twenty thousand is twenty thousand, but my time is limited and I only plan to stay in the city for three days. You'd better help me find what I want within three days!"
"Three days is a bit of a rush, but it depends on what exactly you want. If you're lucky, you might be able to find what you want this afternoon."
The dwarf devil frowned, then stretched it out, took the magic crystal and put it into the space, "Follow me."
Xu Chunniang followed Dwarf Demon and walked through several bustling markets before heading into the forest at the foot of the mountain. The monks she met along the way gradually became rarer.
After arriving in the forest, the two of them walked a long way, and no one could be seen around them.
"Where are you taking me?"
"Don't worry, it's a good place, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Dwarf Demon was very familiar with the road conditions. He led Xu Chunniang around many twists and turns, and finally stopped in front of a lake deep in the forest.
Xu Chunniang looked at the lake in front of her, thoughtfully.
This lake looked ordinary, without any outstanding features, but she knew that the dwarf demon would not bring her here for no reason.
Sure enough, after the dwarf demon stopped, he took out two cloaks.
After putting one on his head, completely covering his face and most of his body, he handed the other cloak to her.
"This thing can prevent others from prying and sensing. Put it on and follow me."
After saying that, he jumped into the lake and swam towards the bottom of the lake.
Seeing this, Xu Chunniang quickly put on her cloak and followed.
The two of them swam all the way to the bottom of the lake. The dwarf demon clicked rhythmically on a boulder in the center of the lake bottom.
Then the boulder suddenly cracked open, leaving a passage for only one person to pass through.
The Dwarf Demon glanced at Xu Chunniang and ducked into the passage.
Xu Chunniang followed closely and stepped into the passage. As soon as she entered the passage, the boulders behind her closed quietly.
The huge rocks fit together so tightly that not even a small gap can be seen.
"This place is really hidden."
Xu Chunniang felt a little emotional in her heart. Without the Dwarf Demon to lead the way, she would never have been able to find this place no matter what.
The 20,000 magic crystals are not in vain, maybe they can really bring her a surprise.
"That's a secret city. It must be hidden enough."
The Dwarf Demon chuckled, "The secret market opens once a month, the location is different each time, and the market opening time will not exceed five days.
You are lucky this time, just in time for the last two days of the market opening. If it were two days later, you would have to wait an extra month. "
As the Dwarf Demon finished speaking, the two finally passed through the long stone passage and arrived at the entrance of the secret city.
