"This is the largest market in our Miao territory!"
Chi Meng's bright eyes sparkled under the light of the torch, and his hands were slightly open, looking quite proud.
"And here, whether it's rare treasures, strange magical weapons or even..."
Li Jing wanted to interrupt her again, but then she turned around and thought it was not appropriate, otherwise this little girl would be angry again later...
Just let her finish...
This Guishizi has obviously existed underground in this Miao territory for many years. The stone walls on the top of the cave are still full of traces of time. The lighting torches tied to the wooden pillars emit a blazing light, reflecting the pedestrians. There are a lot of people in the corridor.
I never thought that there were quite a few people from Miao territory.
"Hello!"
Li Jing was stroking his chin and taking a closer look at the environment of Gui Shizi. Chi Meng came close to his ear at some point, and his voice was specially lengthened to bring him back to his senses.
"Why are you dazed? Come on, let's go buy new clothes!"
Hou Qing lifted the skirt of his clothes and frowned in a rare way: "Aren't my clothes not classy enough?"
Chi Meng rolled his eyes and walked forward with his hands on his hips.
"Your clothes are nice, but they are too eye-catching! The three of you are dressed like people from the Central Plains and went to buy anti-toxic beads. Isn't it too eye-catching!"
The empress put her hands behind her hands and glanced at Li Jing, and said calmly: "Is there anyone here who knows how to steal money and make money?"
Chi Meng shook his finger and pretended to be frightened: "We Miao people have great opinions on you Central Plains people! If you dress up like Central Plains people and buy poison-proof beads, it will be troublesome. Got it!"
"After all, poison-avoiding beads are a very rare treasure!"
The empress glanced at the Miao people who were whispering to them as they passed by, smiled faintly, and walked forward with her hands behind her back.
"It doesn't matter. Where is this thing? You can take us there first."
Hou Qing raised the corners of his mouth, looked at the empress's back and nodded, "The teacher is classy and classy."
Chi Meng, who was ignored by the two men, clenched his fists and stamped his feet fiercely.
"You two will definitely suffer if you don't listen to me! Miao Jiang's Gu Masters are very powerful!"
Feeling a tap on her shoulder, Chi Meng pulled Li Jing who was passing by her: "Go and persuade them quickly. It's not possible to be so high-profile."
Li Jing pointed to Hou Qing's back and comforted Xiao Nizi.
"Don't be afraid, this man is tough and will resist if anything happens."
Pulling away the hand held by Chi Meng, Li Jing strode to follow the empress and Hou Qing in front, "I said, aren't you waiting for Chi Meng?"
Chi Meng turned to stone on the spot and looked at the two people who stopped and looked at her.
"But, I don't know where the poison-avoiding beads are..."
…………
He glanced suspiciously at Li Jing and the other three people behind Chi Meng. Uncle Miao Jiang, who was wearing Miao clothes and a hero's knot on his head, hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "The auction is in the south, and it will start in half an hour." Already..."
As he said that, the uncle glanced at Li Jing and the others, and said in a lowered voice: "Girl, these Central Plains people don't look like good people at first glance. Don't be deceived by them."
It was obvious that both the Empress and Hou Qing heard the uncle's mutterings, but the Empress just put her hands behind her hands and remained silent, while Hou Qing only cared about the bone flute in his hand and did not even raise his head.
Chi Meng smiled awkwardly, waved his hand and prepared to leave: "Thank you, uncle, we will leave first."
Li Jing hugged her chest and smiled at the Miao Jiang uncle, then turned around and followed Chi Meng away.
As Chi Meng walked away, he was also muttering: "Look, you Central Plains people don't have a good impression here. I don't know how eye-catching it will be when I go to that auction later... I have to cover my face." , please don’t recognize my identity as a saint, I am a very popular saint…”
After speaking for a while, Chi Meng turned around and looked at Li Jing up and down, and finally stared at the sword box behind him, which didn't look very valuable at all.
"Go to the auction, do you have any money..."
Li Jing laughed and was about to pat the empress on the shoulder, but her hand paused in the air and touched the back of her head as if she remembered something.
"This Young Master Li, can't you tell, she is not short of money..."
The empress snorted coldly at Li Jing and looked at Chi Meng: "Don't worry, I'll pay for it. You can go find a veil to cover your face first."
Chi Meng's eyes suddenly shone, "So, you can buy a lot of delicious food?"
"What delicious food is there in the Central Plains? Xiao Guo Guo, you are so rich, have you eaten a lot of delicious food?"
The empress was stunned, glanced at Li Jing, who was smiling, and said thoughtfully: "I eat them all at home. If you have a chance, you can go over there and take a look."
Chi Meng held his face with his hands, and his eyes seemed to have stars moving.
"Mutton steamed buns, rice, pimple soup..."
Hou Qing was thoughtful on the side.
How many years have you not had a meal?
Li Jing pushed Chi Meng's back forward, "Hurry up and buy the veil, the auction will start later!"
The empress frowned slightly when she looked at Li Jing's hand, then calmed her expression without revealing any trace, and followed him slowly.
Hou Qing followed behind and looked at the ancient lanterns spread on the roadside.
"These lights are different colors. Is there any difference?"
Chi Meng turned his head and looked at these ancient lamps, "Every stall in Guishizi has ancient lamps hanging there. These ancient lamps are divided according to color to show the different levels of paving. As far as I know, ancient lamps with black color That is the most closely guarded place in Gui Shizi, and the items inside are those that have not yet been auctioned..."
Hou Qing stopped and pointed to a huge tent over there with his bone flute.
"Is that the black ancient lamp you're talking about?"
"Ehhhhh?"
Chi Meng turned his head in surprise, looked in the direction Hou Qing pointed, and saw an unguarded wooden-framed house-style tent.
There is an ancient black lamp that exudes black energy hanging just above the cloth curtain door.
Li Jing raised her eyebrows, remembering that in the play Li Xingyun and others went in to steal poison-avoiding beads because they had no money.
"Didn't I say that outsiders are strictly forbidden to come near? Didn't I say that the handles should be kept tight?"
Chi Meng couldn't help shouting, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Li Jing shook his head and reminded: "Maybe people are staring at us in the dark. Stop yelling and let's go."
Hou Qing nodded, "In that case, let's just go in and take out the poison-avoiding beads."
Li Jing almost fell down and looked at Hou Qing in surprise.
"Zi Zu, how could such a thing come out of your mouth!"
Hou Qing thought for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "This kind of thing doesn't seem to fit my personality. It's not very classy to be sneaky."
The empress looked at Li Jing without much emotion on her face.
But why did Li Jing feel that she seemed to mean that it didn't matter if she robbed her?
Li Jing held her forehead and continued to walk forward: "I feel that this matter is not very authentic..."
The empress nodded and continued walking in the direction of the auction.
Chi Meng quickly followed and whispered.
"It's right not to rob. Xiao Weng, the leader of Gui Shizi, is very powerful."
Li Jing glanced at the guardians around him. In Miao territory, as long as the people from Twelve Cave didn't take action, no one would be able to trouble them...
The few people walked forward like this for a while, and after passing through a shallow beach, they saw a secret passage guarded by a group of knife-wielding Miao guards.
There were also bursts of excited shouts coming from inside.
Apparently, a few people were a little late.
Li Jing and the empress looked at each other, and Chi Meng took the lead towards the secret passage.
But before the four of them could get close, the sword-wielding guard over there had already raised the scabbard from a distance.
"People from the Central Plains?"
Chi Meng's face was covered with a veil, but it could be heard from her voice that she had a smile on her face.
"These are some of my friends from the Central Plains who came specially to see our Guishizi auction event!"
The knife-wielding guard and his companions looked at the three Li Jings behind Chi Meng, and finally their eyes fell on Li Jing, who was standing tall, and asked curiously: "Are these Central Plains people going to buy something at the auction?"
At this time, a rough voice came faintly from the secret passage.
"Poison-avoiding beads, the starting price is one hundred taels!"
Li Jing's ears perked up, and just as he was about to ignore the guards and rush in, a gold ingot was casually thrown at the feet of the leading guard.
The empress's cold voice sounded from behind.
"Is it enough to buy poison repellent beads?"
"It's not enough."
