Is it possible that this girl likes to play straight, and the first thing she said when she found Tang Tang was "Why do I look so similar to you?"
This picture appeared in Cheng Xi's mind, and the next moment he was shuddering.
cannot.
"How did you know each other?"
"...I said it was accidental, do you believe it?"
In fact, Tang Xiao is not so brainless. Meeting Tang Tang today was really an accident.
Living on a junk planet, she knew the best way to get information, so after several days of investigation, she successfully discovered the black market and underground arena of the capital planet.
"Wait, how did you get into the black market?"
It only took a 20-year-old girl who had just arrived in Capital Star three days to find the location of the black market, but she and Shen Xingluo had not discovered it for half a year. Was it because the black market was too showy or because they were too inexperienced?
No matter which one it is, it’s very frustrating- ̄へ ̄-
"Is it difficult to find the black market?"
Tang Xiao asked confusedly while cleaning Tang Tang's wounds.
"Yeah, is it difficult to find the black market? Hiss - be gentle!"
Shen Xingluo: "..."
Cheng Xi: "..."
You deserve to be beaten into a pig's head.
etc......
"Why do you, the eldest daughter of the Tang family, go to the black market?"
"I ran away from home a long time ago, have you forgotten?"
"So you've been earning living expenses on the black market for the past six months?"
Cheng Xi remembered that this guy had wounds from time to time when he was in school and it soon became clear, but he was still very surprised, "I thought you were going to be a coach or a sparring partner for some club."
There is a huge difference between a club and a black market underground arena.
The former is a serious business on the surface, while the latter will bear the consequences regardless of life or death once the game starts.
How courageous does this girl have to risk her life and death just to earn living expenses?
"Yes, yes, haha——"
Tang Tang's eyes suddenly turned weak when he met his friend, "But I've also grown up very fast, right? I'm already at the fifth intermediate level now!"
"Ah."
"Ah."
"It's okay if Cheng Xi laughs at me. What's wrong with you? I haven't asked you yet. Why do you look so similar to me?"
Tang Tangtang constantly pointed his finger at Tang Xiao, and even moved his butt towards Cheng Xi.
The latter slapped her unceremoniously, "What's your attitude? How about interrogating prisoners? I just saved you."
"So, thank you?"
"snort."
Tang Xiao threw away the treatment device, crossed his arms and stepped back halfway, expressing his disdain with practical actions.
"Hey, there's actually someone more arrogant than me. I've really learned a lot today."
"It is better to gain knowledge than to lose your life."
"If it weren't for you, I would be able to escape unscathed."
"Really? I can't see it."
"Oh my bad temper!"
Two girls with similar faces sprayed venom at each other, while Cheng Xi ate melon with gusto.
So this is how people of the same temperament get along?
It's like firecrackers meeting firecrackers, double firecrackers!
"If that bastard hadn't been so mean, do you think I would have been beaten like this?"
Tang Tang gritted his teeth, "Don't let me meet him again, otherwise I will beat him until he can't take care of himself next time."
Tang Xiao's eyes were cold, "Then call back now."
"..." Girl, I'm pretty sure you are from the Tang family.
Look at this reaction, this look, no one believes you two.
Cheng Xi leaned closer to Shen Xingluo and whispered:
"Does Mr. Tang also have such a stubborn temper in private?"
Shen Xingluo was silent for a moment and could only nod.
"right."
"..." Good guy, all members of the Tang family are strong-willed.
In such a comparison, Tang Rou, who is full of white lotus attributes, looks even less like a Tang family member.
***
Cheng Xi never expected that she would be able to take another night trip to the black market in just one month.
But now is not the time to be surprised by this.
"So, during the day we were obviously discussing why they look so similar. How did the topic get so twisted that we wanted to seek revenge?"
That night, she was confused when she was dragged out of the shopkeeper's house by Tang Tang and Tang Xiao.
Shen Xingluo walked beside her, with the Tang sisters leading the way. "Perhaps it's because their personalities are too similar. They hate evil as much as they hate it, and they must avenge themselves."
All right.
She accepts this statement and somewhat agrees with it in her heart.
I was bullied and the other person slapped me in the face. I couldn't swallow anything I said.
Must call back!
"The entrance to the black market is right in front, we're here."
What?
"You said the black market in Capital Star is here? T3 Avenue?"
Am I mistaken, this is the most economically prosperous T3 Avenue, a place where every inch of land is precious.
"Yes, this is it."
Tang Tang has been here more than once and is very familiar with the place.
Cheng Xi was shocked, "Is this called hiding in the city? Or is the most dangerous place the safest place?"
Good guy, the entrance to the Capital Star Black Market is actually in the downtown area. Who can I ask to explain this?
Who on earth came up with such a far-sighted idea!
With the advanced technology of the interstellar era, many things left by our ancestors have been lost in the long river of history. However, this view engraved in our bones has not changed at all.
It’s also amazing.
After being surprised, Cheng Xi turned his attention to Tang Xiao.
Tang Tang has lived in Capital Star for more than 20 years. It is not surprising that she can find the black market.
But Tang Xiao is not.
As expected of someone who can survive on a garbage planet, even if the black markets on different planets have some similarities, it is not easy to find its entrance in such a short period of time.
Sure enough, life makes people grow.
Shen Xingluo pondered for a few seconds, then looked at the two people in front of him, "Have you ever disguised yourself in the black market before?"
"certainly."
Tang Tang sighed, "I am a member of the Tang family after all. This face is the face of the Tang family wherever I go. Even if I run away from home, I am still a member of the Tang family. I still know this sense of honor and disgrace."
Tang Xiao said nothing, but she nodded in acquiescence.
Her face doesn't need to be disguised on the junk planet, but if she wants to secretly find out useful information on the capital planet, disguise is the best protection.
Shen Xingluo secretly thought that it was indeed the case, and with a thought, two more black peaked caps appeared in his right hand.
Seeing this, Cheng Xi poked his head over in a familiar manner, and soon a black shadow came over the top of his head, covering most of his face.
Perfect.
A group of four people put on simple disguises and walked into the capital star's black market in a very low-key manner.
The capital planet is the planet with the most prosperous economy and the richest inhabitants in the Federation. Even underground places like the black market are very different from the garbage planet.
For example, the entrance has been changed from a self-propelled staircase to an elevator full of technology, and people who hang out in the black market are getting richer.
The moment the elevator door opened, a noisy and lively sound replaced the original silence. The bustling flow of people came into view. At a glance, it was all dark and full of human heads.
Unsurprisingly, the space here is more spacious than that of the Junk Star.
As far as the eye can see, there is no edge.
"It's so lively here."
Last time on Junk Planet, the two of them didn't stay outside the arena for too long because they had something to do. Most of the shops were just looking around.
I took a quick look, but I could get a rough idea of the store's condition just by looking at it.
The level of prosperity is not on the same level as here.
Cheng Xi looked at Tang Xiao and found that she was also looking at the stores on both sides of the road with interest.
Tang Tang, with three old hats, acted as a temporary commentator.
"There's everything here that you can't imagine, and the people who can come here are complicated. Not only do they come from all walks of life, but they also meet star thieves and wanted criminals."
"How did these people get into the capital planet?"
Your words make me very suspicious of Capital Star's security system, girl.
"The capital planet is not a piece of steel. People have selfish motives. Whether they are star thieves or wanted criminals, they can bring huge wealth and rare treasures. With these, are you afraid that no one will open the door for them?"
"..."
Cheng Xi was speechless.
The interstellar era was really not as pure and flawless as she imagined. Facts once again proved that every plane has its own gray area.
Tang Tang gave her a wry smile, "Originally I didn't know this either. I thought the world was peaceful and there was no more powerful opponent besides the Zerg humans."
However, the facts told her that the biggest enemy of mankind is mankind itself, which is simply impossible to guard against.
"Look around, at least no one will do anything to the Tang family."
"..." It's obvious that I'm comforting you, but when did it become the other way around?
Tang Tang was feeling stuffy.
Cheng Xi observed the passers-by without leaving any trace, and found that many of them had a strong smell of blood and a look of violence in their eyes. Only people who have been killing people all year round have this characteristic.
If he joins the legion, he will be as upright as Song Changyan even if he is tempted to kill. However, these people are not. It only takes one glance to tell that they are ruthless characters.
These people are most likely star thieves or mercenaries.
Since these people exist, it makes sense for some shops on both sides of the street that have never existed outside.
There will be sales when there is demand.
The most indispensable thing in the black market is weapons shops, and the types of weapons here are more complete than outside. Whether they are pan-mass destruction weapons or large weapons needed for starships or mechas, everything you want is available.
Shen Xingluo looked at these shops with a thought in his mind.
"Can these weapons be purchased in large quantities?"
"..."
Tang - Narrator - Tang was confused for a moment. She has never done this before?
Tang Xiao, commentator 2, came to the post, "Okay, just communicate with the shop owner and pay the money on the spot."
Cheng Xi looked at Shen Xingluo and remained silent.
Good guy, are you planning to make a batch yourself?
I have to say, this idea... is very exciting.
Who still thinks that his weapons are not powerful enough? Of course, the more lethal the better!
"Although weapons are sold in the black markets of all major planets, they all have a private consensus that personal grudges cannot be settled here. If there are any big grudges, they can be settled on mercenary planets or uninhabited places."
"Is this a date in a different sense?"
"......right."
The next second, Cheng Xi was attracted by the pharmacy room mixed with several weapon shops.
The large letters on the window were marked with several potions with different names. What attracted her was the words "Animal Repelling Powder", "Animal Attracting Powder" and "Tracing Powder" marked on some of them.
"..."
Another unexpected series.
"I remember that instructor Song said at the end of the assessment that these three medicines were not available in the interstellar world. Someone has developed them just a month ago?"
"No, that's a fake."
Tang Tang glanced at the pharmacy room with disgust, "Humph, it's just a trick, the medicine is not as effective as one-tenth of what you made."
"Have you verified it or has someone verified it?"
Although Cheng Xi is like this
asked, but actually she prefers the former.
Tang Tang usually wanders in the black market, and she should be one of the first people to see these three potions for sale. In addition, she was the first to take out this stuff, so it is hard to guarantee that this girl wants to try it.
And the fact was just as she expected, Tang Tang's face felt uncomfortable for a moment.
"..."
Cheng Xi couldn't laugh or cry, "The price of that thing is not cheap. Why would you buy this if you can't make money easily? It's not like you don't have any."
"Didn't I take care of it for you? If someone else develops a medicinal powder that is more effective than yours, then where will you put your face?"
"Thanks?"
"You're welcome."
Tang Xiao snorted and interrupted, "Childish."
Tang Tang: "..." I hope this guy isn't my sister.
Cheng Xi: "..." Is this my sister's jealousy to gain her presence?
A group of four people entered from the east end of the street and walked all the way to the west end. They browsed through all the shops without rushing to buy anything and place an order. They just wandered to the legendary underground arena.
There was a huge crowd of people. At first glance, there were several times more heads of all kinds than outside, and the shouts that filled the ears were even louder.
"What's going on here?"
"There are two ways to play in the gladiatorial arena. One is to click and stop, and the other is to fight a life and death battle. Only one party must die to end the battle."
Cheng Xi nodded, which was expected.
However, even if the injury is over, it doesn't matter how much the injury is. If a leg is cut off and an arm is missing, as long as the person survives, it is still within the realm of the end.
In a place like the arena, there is never any mercy.
"And both of them have ordinary gambling areas and advanced gambling areas. Those with level four abilities and below belong to the ordinary gambling area, and those with level four abilities and above belong to the advanced gambling area."
Tang Tang said, leading the three of them to the high-end gambling area.
Apparently, she has been active in this area.
"How to place a bet?"
"What?"
"Didn't you come here to find a place tonight? I went to place bets to support you."
"..." Aren't you supposed to come on for me or sit here and applaud in support?
I never thought you would be so supportive!
"correct."
Cheng Xi seemed to remember something and patted her forehead, "The arena should charge a handling fee, right? How much is it?"
"Twenty percent."
"It's so dark."
No matter how you look at it, it's just a money-making business, and there's no bending involved.
"You guys sit down while I go."
Shen Xingluo stood up and walked towards the main stage, using practical actions to prove that Cheng Xi's decision was the right one, which made the two friends surnamed Tang feel their teeth hurt.
"!" Having a boyfriend is amazing!
"..." It's true that if a family doesn't enter the same door, they all have the same dark heart.
Tang Xiao actually sympathized with the person next to her who seemed to be her sister.
At this time, Cheng Xi had already focused on the ring.
Now there are people in the four arenas, some are thin, some are strong, and some people are quick to strike before the opponent can react. Countless blood stains are constantly left on the stage. The scene was once very brutal. .
At this time, two different sets of shouts would come from the surroundings, some were yelling and others were laughing and celebrating, and then staff would clean up the blood on the ground in the blink of an eye, as if nothing had happened.
Cheng Xi: "..."
Cooperate with each other and cooperate with each other.
"Where is the person who beat you at noon?"
"That's the bastard!"
Tang Tang's clenched fists clacked loudly, "I won't be merciful this time. He actually took advantage of me to get around him and tripped him. He has a very dark heart!"
"I go."
Tang Xiao was as cold as ice. There was no doubt about it.
"You? Why."
In the end, Tang Tang still swallowed the sentence "You dare to take care of my business" and replaced it with a sentence that was not so lethal.
"I don't like him."
"That guy is a fifth-level intermediate superpower."
Tang Xiao started to take off his shirt and jacket, "I can beat him."
Tang Tang wanted to say something more, but Cheng Xi held her down and gently shook his head at her.
Tang Xiao took advantage of this opportunity and jumped onto the one-meter-high ring. Only half of her face was exposed under the peaked cap. The people underneath could not fully see her appearance, but her female features were so obvious that she made a whistle.
"Who is she and where did she come from?"
Tang Tang sat up straight and his hands began to tense up.
Damn it, even if she went up to fight, she would never be so nervous!
"She is a friend I met on the junk planet."
Cheng Xi briefly introduced Tang Xiao, "Are you sure your dad... what, doesn't have an illegitimate daughter outside?"
"..."
Tang Tang's expression was so weird and bizarre, "Actually, I look like my mother."
Cheng Xi: "..."
Sorry, I really didn’t expect this!
While the two were "chatting" about the elders' gossip, Shen Xingluo returned to the viewing area, and the two men on the ring had already started fighting.
The opponent was a tall man of nearly two meters. Tang Xiao, who was only 170cm tall, almost didn't even look at him. He shot a sharp blade condensed with metal superpowers and planned to kill him with one move.
Tang Xiao just tilted his head slightly and made no unnecessary movements. The sharp blade grazed his cheek, no more, no less, and he raised his fingers at the opponent with a contemptuous chin.
"Uu——"
There was a burst of loud laughter from under the ring, which was also mixed with the cheers of several people.
Tang Tang was stunned, ah, this made him feel so hateful.
"Is she stronger than me?"
"He is indeed stronger than you."
Cheng Xi was convinced.
If this girl returns to the Tang family, I don't know what kind of storm it will cause.
The man on the ring was instantly irritated. He yelled and rushed towards the opposite side, causing the floor to tremble. Tang Xiao faced the difficulty without giving in and threw the same huge fireball.
The two soon started a pure close combat.
And Tang Tang noticed the difference as she looked at it. She was a real academic. The fighting she learned from childhood to adulthood was taught step by step by instructors who had retired from the army.
However, Tang Xiao's moves were unorganized, yet they were deadly and very easy to use.
Thinking of the "Personal Brochure of Tang Xiao" that Cheng Xi had just said, I suddenly felt stuffy and very uncomfortable.
