Seen from the sky, the abyss looks like a writhing, elongated centipede with no beginning or end.
Quiet, hazy, and dark, like an eternal black hole, this is everyone's impression of it.
But, being in the abyss, the feeling is completely different.
The sky is like a well, and a brilliant starry sky is vaguely visible, but there are very few starlights that can illuminate it.
The people and ghosts of the abyss have lived in such a place for thousands of years.
Here, it is not that there is no light, but it is very weak, and you have to work very hard to see things.
The light comes from street lamps on both sides of the abyss.
Yes, street lights.
The abyss is very deep, and due to its proximity to the Ghost Sea, the entire abyss is actually a large bay, with seawater running through the entire length of the abyss.
The sound of the whistle sounded from time to time, which was the sound made by the large ferry on the bay.
On both sides of the coast, there are wide roads, and the faint light comes from the street lights on the cement roads.
Beside the road is an endless row of stone buildings, mostly shops.
There are a lot of people who repair cars, sell hardware, daily necessities, etc.
This is the market provided by the abyss ghosts to other races.
On the abyss wall dozens of meters above the market, there are platforms one after another, and it can be vaguely seen that airships are docking.
They used the principles of steam and equipment to the extreme that could be achieved in this era.
Also, the astonishing number of cannons on the steamships and airships patrolling back and forth, and the weapons in the hands of the abyssal ghosts on the streets.
Here is the abyss, giant ships, airships, equipment, cannons, etc.
Shen Yan probably understood why they couldn't summon the heroic spirits, but they still survived until now.
Abyss ghosts, spirit races, and humans on the earth have developed different life systems of their own.
Around Shen Yan, businessmen of all races flocked to the market while it was open.
Compared to the dead silence I imagined, there was so much excitement.
A group of children with slightly pale skin were playing freely on the street. The penis on their waists was really eye-catching. Even if it was only powered by gun/powder, the penis had to be refilled after one shot. Shen Yan thought, A professional in the lower prologue would probably not feel comfortable being shot like this, even if it didn't hit the vital point.
These children were lying on the ground playing with wind-up toys. They seemed to feel Shen Yan looking at them and couldn't help but raise their heads in confusion.
When he saw the monster stitched together behind Shen Yan, his eyes were filled with envy, curiosity, and a little bit of jealousy.
Just as humans envy their lives, they envy humans' rich and different career systems.
The child also glared at Shen Yan.
"Look again. If you look again, give this monster of yours to us." They couldn't help but rub their little hands, and then found another place to continue playing with their toys.
Shen Yan thought to himself, he is so fierce and is indeed very unfriendly to humans.
Shen Yan was now well armed, with a shield in his hand, a sword hanging on his waist, and a sacristy case on his back.
The little kitten stood on the left shoulder, and the little tree man stood on the right shoulder, holding his neck. The little kitten seemed to be very curious and wanted to play with the little tree man on the right, but he kept getting glared back.
go.
The sewing monster followed beside Shen Yan,
Once something happens,
It will be the first to rush forward.
Behind him, standing in the shadow is Liu Changyi, who can provide powerful long-range support at any time.
Because Zhao Kuo said that although the abyss ghosts have opened the market to humans, it does not mean absolute safety.
Sometimes humans and they come into conflict, and it's not easy to escape on someone else's territory.
Come to think of it, with a row of little guys firing all at once, it's unlikely that many people would be able to leave without any injuries.
However, Zhao Kuo also said that the people and ghosts of the Abyss have strict laws. As long as their laws are not violated, there is generally no need to worry about accidents.
This surprised Shen Yan. Law?
The city of mercenaries actually has its own laws, but they are just written on paper and have no ability to enforce or restrain them. The only ones who can restrain them may only be the lowest level civilians.
The strict enforcement of the law shows that the people and ghosts of the Abyss are very disciplined, and there must be a super strong force to maintain and ensure the enforcement of the law.
Shen Yan walked curiously on the road, and merchants were buying goods in large and small bags.
Every time the market opens, they make a lot of money. They can bring back these products that humans cannot produce and sell them, and they can earn a considerable price difference.
Shen Yan stopped at a shop selling wind-up toys, including birds, turtles, and puppies, in many styles.
Shen Yan finally chose a wind-up frog: "Buy one."
He remembered that Zhuzi liked these little things the most. If he bought one, the baby would probably go crazy with joy.
Zhao Kuo also picked up a wind-up puppy: "Buy one more for my son to play with."
The little tree man on Shen Yan's shoulder almost lost his balance and opened his mouth, but in the end he made no sound.
Shen Yan couldn't help but glance at Zhao Kuo. He bought one because the children were usually very obedient. For example, with a toy, everyone could arrange their time well and never rob or conflict with it.
Shen Yan thought to himself, if you buy two, just buy two.
The price is actually not cheap, it is really a huge profit business.
Zhao Kuo, who has always been a miser, didn't even blink when he gave the money.
Zhao Kuo: "What's wrong?"
Shen Yan put away his eyes and handed the two wind-up toys to Dudu to hold.
Dudu looked "helpless" and didn't dare to express it.
He doesn't play with wind-up toys. Why are they so exquisite? He will try them.
Shen Yan and the others walked around and quickly found a shop selling paper and pens.
Shen Yan said to Zhao Kuo while choosing, "I don't know when our mercenary city will develop like this."
Zhao Kuo was stunned for a moment: "It's not like Mercenary City has never made efforts in this direction, but they all ended in failure."
There are too many forces in the Mercenary City, and they will not give up once their interests are involved.
Driven by interests, it is impossible for the entire city to reach a unified opinion. In addition, the classes are clearly divided, and no one cares about the largest number of civilians.
In the end, the current chaotic and disorderly status quo can only be maintained.
The greater the chaos, the greater the poverty.
Shen Yan chose several pens. In addition to him, several children in the group also went to school and needed paper and pens. For example, Locust Cubs needed to record the insects he found, such as Kappa, etc.
One also needs to keep accounts when selling cloth. ()
?This author reminds you that the most complete "Thirty Thousand Years of the Earth" is available at [], domain name [()]? "Come to [] & see the latest chapter & complete chapter" ()
It's enough to last a long time.
I asked the boss where books are sold.
When Shen Yan found the book store, there was a long line of people of all races outside.
Absurd nobles, wise scholars, adventurous mercenaries...
The first volume of "Golian's Travels" was written 200 years ago and is deeply loved by people in different fields.
As soon as the next volume came out, it naturally caused a rush.
Shen Yan was worried that he wouldn't be able to grab it, because many of the people in front of him bought a large bundle at a time, and some even used picks to carry them. They must be businessmen.
The queue was too long, and he didn't know how long it would take. Zhao Kuo simply went to the Abyss People and Ghosts to discuss the sublease period of the big ferry.
The old wizard Uther is in Shen Yan's sacristy box, so there is no need to worry too much about safety issues.
While Shen Yan was queuing up, he overheard some unexpected discussions.
"The first rule of the Abyss Ghost Market is that you cannot bring any open items into the market."
"It is said that the eyes of the abyss ghosts cannot stand strong light. Anyone who dares to light the bright light will be shot to death."
Shen Yan thought to himself that the appearance of the abyss ghosts and humans are very similar. Perhaps just like in the legend, the abyss ghosts originally belonged to humans, but in the great era of R, because they could not summon heroic spirits, and the environment Due to the bad changes and the chaos between the various forces, they had to retreat into the abyss.
Tens of thousands of years of living in the abyss have mutated their eyes, making them very sensitive to light and no longer able to tolerate strong light.
This should be the biggest reason why they don't appear anywhere else outside the abyss.
"I heard that a group of humans just had a conflict with the abyss ghosts."
"Now he's probably been shot all over his body and thrown into the sea of ghosts."
"There is another group of water ghosts in the ghost sea."
Troublemakers must die.
It also let Shen Yan know that the abyss ghosts are really rude to humans. Fortunately, he is not a troublemaker.
The old witch Uther also lamented: "Compared to a hundred years ago, this place has really not changed at all."
"Dim lights, lively market, orderly order."
"A powerful force once peeked here and wanted to take possession of the wealth here."
"That force was well prepared and planned at the beginning, and coupled with the secretive abilities of the professionals, it did get a lot of benefits. However, almost without warning, that force suffered a lot of consequences for their actions overnight. God’s punishment, the indescribable and unimaginable punishment from God.”
Shen Yan was stunned: "Heavenly punishment?"
I originally thought that the abyss ghosts had repelled the snoopers, but I didn't expect this to be the result.
Uther said: "Yes, God's Punishment. The Lost Desert was not so empty before. There was an ancient city called Mojia in the desert. It ruled the entire desert. Speaking of which, it was an old neighbor of the Mercenary City. Yes, there have been many conflicts with the Mercenary City in the past."
"But after Mojia Ancient City peered into the abyss and took action, the entire Mojia Ancient City disappeared from the desert overnight."
"I heard that that night, someone heard the god's voice
() roared, and the violent sound continued to resound throughout the desert all night long. "
"The next day, when someone went to Mojia Ancient City, they could no longer find it."
"The ground is full of burnt potholes, and the air is filled with a pungent smell. What's left are broken eaves, broken walls, and human limbs that are too tragic to imagine. It's like hell."
"Everyone says that this is heaven's punishment, a punishment for the sins of the ancient city of Mojia."
"As for the truth, no one knows."
"The ruins were directly dubbed the Demon God's Hell, which is the best proof of the existence of God. Since this incident, there have been fewer forces peering into the Abyss. Legend has it that the Abyss is an existence favored by the Demon God."
History is so interesting. There are truths hidden in myths and legends that are unimaginable.
Uther's erudition also surprised Shen Yan, because erudition is not synonymous with longevity in this world.
Shen Yan asked: "Teacher Uther, do you also believe that this is the devil's punishment?"
Uther was noncommittal and said for a moment: "Before I came to the underground dangerous place of the Mercenary City, I once visited the ruins of the ancient Mojia City."
"The wind and sand have covered the entire ancient city, and all that can be seen are discolored gravels. They are burnt and strange, indicating that an unimaginable disaster has indeed occurred."
"But the strange thing is that even the legend in the third prologue cannot sense extraordinary power from the ruins."
"Pollution, curses, disasters, plagues, diseases, occultism, there seems to be no sign of their existence."
"I also inquired about some things. After the destruction of the ancient city of Mojia, there were many courageous mercenary groups hoping to find some useful wealth."
"But I heard that the harvest was very sparse, and I only brought back some broken and unsightly relics."
"The disappearance of the ancient city of Mojia is a mystery. Perhaps only the devil or the abyss ghosts know the real truth."
Shen Yan listened very carefully. These histories with truth and legend have always attracted him the most.
If it had been Shen Yan's time, he would have probably gone on the road with his backpack on his back to find out, find the truth, and get a glimpse of the secrets buried in history.
Now that I think about it, that state was also when I had no worries about food and clothing.
Now, life still comes first.
Perhaps one day, when Shen Yan no longer worries about survival, he will pick up his old interests and hobbies again. Shen Yan once said that this was his destiny.
Although searching for the truth of history is one of the most dangerous things in this world.
They chatted wordlessly.
At this time, it was finally Shen Yan's turn. Shen Yan quickly asked the boss: "Is your book genuine?"
This question was very important. It was related to his wealth and life. He could imagine what His Highness Gaia would ask if he bought a pirated copy.
"Civilian, you have violated the laws of the Blood Dynasty."
"According to the law, you will be beheaded as a punishment."
Shen Yan couldn't help but shiver and touched his neck.
The boss replied: "Of course, this is the first batch, pirated copies won't come out that quickly."
Then he looked at Shen Yan warily: "You want to buy pirated copies?"
Shen Yan quickly shook his head: "You have to make sure it is genuine, give me two
Book. ()”
“?[()]?『Come to []+see the latest chapter+complete chapter』()”
But when I think about it being genuine, it’s worth it.
"His Highness Gaia must be very wealthy." Shen Yan murmured enviously. He had to make a lot of money just from selling books. It would be great if one day he could achieve the same achievements as His Highness Gaia.
I carefully held the two books in my hands. The genuine editions were in my hands, and they felt a little different.
Shen Yan didn't dare to go too far, otherwise Zhao Kuo wouldn't be able to find him when he came back.
Just take a stroll around the area.
In addition to the various shops opened by these abyssal ghosts, there is also a complicated and lively market nearby, which is specially provided for humans to sell goods.
Shen Yan was surprised. He had known that he would also bring some cloth and maltose to sell.
Look, there are quite a lot of Abyss people and ghosts shopping around, so they will definitely make a fortune.
It seems that this market is not just for humans to come here to replenish goods, but also for people and ghosts in the abyss to exchange their supplies in this way.
Shen Yan wandered around for a while, and Baita didn't stop talking all the way: "Keep shopping, keep going."
"Although we, the Stonemen, live on the wall of the abyss, we can't see clearly what's going on below."
Shen Yan couldn't walk around anymore, so he found a corner, wiped the dust on the floor, sat there and read a book, and put the white tower aside so that he could see more of the market.
Baita: "Look at your thin body. You're tired after walking around for so long."
"From now on, when people mention the White Tower Warrior, they must not also laugh at your thin body."
Shen Yan thought to himself, "You don't have legs, so you won't be tired if you don't have to walk by yourself. You don't want to think about how heavy a large stone shield with high density is in your hand."
He needs to rest.
The second volume of "Golian's Travels" is still exciting.
It is a travelogue, geography, customs and etiquette, and even includes astronomy and horoscopes.
No wonder it is loved and sought after by people of all identities, and even special professionals can find some inspiration from it.
Shen Yan flipped through it and found an article about the survivors of the light, which told the story of the Moji family.
I found another theology branch article, talking about the Dark Moon Sect.
The corner of Shen Yan's mouth raised. He really dared to write. This kind of article exposing the dark side of a sacred force would definitely cause an unimaginable sensation.
I just don’t know how many people can accept such a subversive perception.
Only a being like His Highness Gaia dares to make these things public to the world without fear of retaliation.
Shen Yan flipped through it and then read it from the beginning. For Shen Yan, this book was a way for him to truly understand the world, not just the mercenary city.
She was fascinated by the scene and didn't know how much time had passed until a burst of noise woke Shen Yan up.
The scene was a bit chaotic, and there were even constant sounds of sex.
() Shen Yan quickly picked up the big shield: "What happened? ()"
“▋()▋『Come to []♀see the latest chapter♀full chapter』()”
Baita said excitedly: "Try, try, it doesn't matter even if you pierce me or break me into pieces, you just need to take back a small piece and place it again on the abyss wall. After a year or two, my entire My face can open again."
Shen Yan felt that it was a bit unreliable, but he also knew that Zhao Kuo once said why the stone people were the best shield.
In addition to their incomparable hardness, their vitality repair ability is also so tenacious that even a small piece can be restored to full strength.
Holding the big shield in front of him, Shen Yan also heard some information amidst the chaos.
"I heard that a few humans violated the rules of the market."
"The abyssal ghosts are hunting them."
"Didn't you say that those humans have been thrown into the sea of ghosts?"
"Who knows, don't be affected by their **, this thing will make holes every time, which is more terrifying than the bows and arrows of rangers and hunters, and the trajectory can't be seen at all."
To avoid it, you naturally have to see the trajectory.
Chaos, the sound of screaming, getting closer.
Shen Yan saw a person walking quickly among the crowd. No, it should be a heroic spirit.
There were obviously a lot of people, but he was like a fish swimming in an open space. The people around him were not obstacles, but became tools for him to avoid pursuit.
Evade pursuit?
No, to be more precise, this heroic spirit is attracting his pursuers.
The old wizard Uther said something: "He is covering a thief to leave. At least he is a thief who has mastered the stealth skill. Such dim light is very conducive to the thief's evacuation."
Is one in the light and the other in the dark?
But Shen Yan no longer had time to examine these, his eyes were fixed on the dagger in the heroic spirit's hand.
There were three such daggers recorded in "Classics".
"Prince Pi of the Wei Dynasty made three hundred-pipe daggers. One of them resembled solid ice and was named Qinggang. The second one resembled the morning sun and was named Yangwen. The third one resembled dragon inscriptions and was named Dragon Scales."
The three daggers of Qinggang, Yangwen and Longlin have left very wonderful stories in history.
If Shen Yan was right, this dagger should be dragon scale.
The heroic spirits in Mengyuan will also carry their commonly used weapons when they are embodied in this world, which means that weapons can also be embodied.
For example, Li Sanniang's pipa, Sun Ci's silver needle for treating diseases, Liu Changyi's bow and arrow, etc.
Shen Yan looked at the assassins moving swiftly in the crowd. Based on the weapons used by the assassins, he probably knew who they were.
/>
Yao Li, this person's name is Yao Li, a controversial assassin in history.
For example, Sima Qian's "Biographies of Assassins" records all the famous assassins during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, such as the four widely circulated assassins today, Zhuanzhu, Yurang, Nie Zheng, and Jing Ke.
There are also less famous assassins, such as Cao Mo and Gao Jianli, who are all recorded in "The Biography of Assassins".
But Sima Qian was not about to leave such an earth-shattering assassin. He mentioned it half a sentence in this book, and only a few words were recorded in the later supplementary records.
If there are very few records about this person in history, in modern times, it is even more so in modern literature.
() directly obliterated his existence. ()
?The soap is a bit slippery to remind you that "Thirty Thousand Years of the Earth" will be updated in [] as soon as possible, remember [()]? "Come to []@ to see the latest chapter @ the complete chapter" ()
Of course, as a historian, Shen Yan does not agree with this kind of erasure of history and denial of facts that have happened because of differences in values.
Since it is history, it should be faced squarely.
As an assassin, Yaoli was successful, and his flash in the pan shocked the past and the present.
This person is quite legendary. He interprets the words "A scholar will die for his confidant" all the time, so even if he takes the initiative to complete the commission of his confidant and uses the lives of his wife and children to win the trust of the enemy, he personally Sending his wife and children to the execution platform to be slaughtered was just to gain the enemy's trust and lurk next to the enemy.
In order to be a confidant and to achieve his goal, he used the lives of his wife and children as bargaining chips and watched his wife and children being hung on the city wall for public display.
Such a person was naturally successful as an assassin, and he also stabbed and killed Qing Ji, who was known as the number one warrior at the time, with a dragon scale dagger.
Before Qingji died, he even said to the soldiers who were surrounding him: "Let him go. There are not many heroes in the world, and we cannot die two in one day."
People in the world have many comments about Yaoli, saying that his heart is not made of blood, but is as hard as iron and as cold as ice.
But some people say that he is affectionate and righteous, because he is willing to use his wife and children as bargaining chips for Wu Zixu, who just looked at him when he was at his most impoverished, and promised to die for him forever.
Shen Yan looked at the heroic spirit in the crowd. He was almost no longer mentioned in modern history. He disappeared because he did not conform to modern values.
History is an interesting thing. If you read more, you will find that many reasons for the disappearance of some things are due to the current disallowance. This somewhat violates the meaning of the word "history". Since it has already happened, why not face it squarely.
Shen Yan was surprised that what kind of person could actually call out an assassin with such a cold personality.
He glanced around and found nothing.
A thief who can hide?
The scene was really chaotic, and the boy from Baita was still shouting: "Hold it higher, raise it higher, make me a target."
The heroic spirit quickly passed through the crowd and disappeared from sight.
Everything began to become calm again, and the merchants continued their business as if nothing had happened.
It is estimated that only the little tree man Dudu muttered in a voice that no one could understand: "These troublemakers in Sin City are not dead yet? What are they doing in the territory of the abyss people and ghosts?"
Shen Yan was tickled by the beeping sound and tilted his head. He didn't know what this little guy was doing all day long.
At this time, a tall figure appeared behind Shen Yan, it was Zhao Kuo who was back.
Before Shen Yan could talk about what happened just now, Zhao Kuo said: "Something happened within the Abyss people and ghosts. We have to leave quickly. They are likely to block the roads in and out of the market."
As he spoke, he pulled Shen Yan out.
The market did not seem to have changed due to the chaos just now, but Shen Yan noticed that the patrolling abyssal ghosts were heading towards the entrance in an orderly manner, carrying their wives on their backs.
The huge ferry in the bay and its cannon muzzle are also moving towards the entrance.
Even the airship overhead seemed to be in the process of being mobilized.
Shen Yan didn't dare to neglect and sped up.
() footsteps, while asking: "What happened? ()"
“?()_[()]?『Come[]? Read the latest chapter? Complete chapter』()”
"This matter is top secret. The people and ghosts of the Abyss will not let anyone suspicious go."
This is almost consistent with the news Shen Yan heard.
Shen Yan asked again: "Why have you been gone for so long?"
Zhao Kuo replied: "The matter of renewing the ship lease is more troublesome than expected. They only provide the ship, not the personnel to control the ship."
"So we have to send some people to learn how to steer, sail, sail, use the equipment on the ship to fight against water ghosts, etc., otherwise they will not give the ship to us."
"Learning these requires paying a large amount of tuition."
Shen Yan probably knew why Zhao Kuo spent so much time. He was probably negotiating the price with someone.
They do have to learn things like steering, sailing and using equipment. After the lease expires for one year, they have to continue renting, which is a necessary expense.
Shen Yan and the others were not very deep in the market. When they walked out of the door, the gate of the huge bay was closing.
The door is so big that it cannot be closed manually.
You can hear the sounds of gears, tracks, springs, and rotating shafts.
This is mechanical power.
In fact, Shen Yan also saw a watch shop in the market. Mechanical pocket watches seemed really refined for this world.
Although it is only a glimpse of the leopard, only a small corner of the abyss, it is like another world and another civilization.
When Shen Yan turned around, he happened to see the closed door and couldn't help but said, "Will the others be okay?"
Zhao Kuo shook his head: "If you break into the abyss privately on normal days, you will naturally not be able to get out, but this is the market opened by the abyss itself."
"Even if they want to keep their market open, they won't cause too much trouble."
Shen Yan thought about it, and it was right. If the open market was unstable, it would also affect the people and ghosts of the abyss.
After a hurried trip, before going back, Shen Yan went to the abyss crevice on the edge of the desert because this guy from Baita promised to bring several brothers from his clan to explore together.
Follow the rope downwards and transport up several stone faces that have fallen off the abyss wall.
"White Tower, White Tower, what is this?"
Baita: "This is the desert, the Lost Desert. How about it? You haven't seen such a vast place before, have you?"
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabubuabuabuaaaaaaaaa!The legendary desert, and it’s a little different from what I imagined.”
Several stone faces look like a vegetable market.
Shen Yan resisted several faces and thought to himself, the mercenary group will be lively in the future.
After thinking about it, he gave a stone man shield called Chita to the Stitch Monster to hold, so that he could have stronger defense and be able to hit people with the shield.
The names of these stone brothers are also quite wonderful, White Tower, Black Tower, Red Tower, Blue Tower and so on.
Shen Yan was holding up several large shields: "Who is the brother next to me? They are blocking my view of the beautiful desert. Move away quickly."
Shen Yan thought to himself, hey, I will hand you over to someone else in the future.
() People from the same Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group will show you enough every day, so you don’t have to be like now, and his resistance will always overlap.
Shen Yan discovered that the young stone people were very curious and had a temperamental temper. They would scream in surprise at everything they saw.
When Shen Yan returned to the shop, he quickly distributed the large shields to others.
Being surrounded by a group of extremely noisy chatty people is really not something ordinary people can bear.
In the evening, the two stone brothers will get together again and talk about their experiences.
Shen Yan's whole body relaxed.
Baita: "Look, you are so noisy that even Shen Yan despises you."
Shen Yan: "..."
Don’t look in the mirror to see who has the loudest voice and talks the most.
Shen Yan sat down and drank water.
Sunzi was having a great time holding the wind-up frog that Shen Yan bought for him.
At a table in the shop, there were two regulars, one big and one small. They were wrapped tightly, except for the goggles, which were so dark that they couldn't see their eyes.
The younger one was eating and playing with the wind-up turtle on the table.
Sunzi thought for a while and ran over with a smile.
Winding up his own clockwork frog and placing it on the table, the frog began to jump.
Sunzi: "I have it too. Our family Shen Yan just bought it for me at the market in the abyss."
He had always envied the child's wind-up turtle before, but now he couldn't show it off.
Sunzi: "I also have a wind-up puppy, and Dudu is playing with it now."
The child glanced at the bamboo shoots and then snorted.
Bamboo blinked, what!
Not enthusiastic at all.
Sunzi said: "I had a hard time buying my clockwork frog. The gate to the abyss was closed just now. If Shen Yan hadn't come out quickly, I wouldn't be able to play with it now."
This life actually stunned the two of them.
At this time, the mercenaries coming and going became noisy, and they were also talking about the closing of the abyss gate.
"I heard that something happened and we needed to investigate one by one, so we closed the abyss gate."
"Searching one by one? There are so many people coming in, how long will this investigation last?"
"It has to be tomorrow anyway."
There was a lot of discussion.
The child was so surprised that the wind-up turtle in his hand fell off the table, and he looked at the adult: "What should I do?"
The adult also frowned nervously.
Shen Yan was actually paying attention to these two people.
These two people came every day, but after eating, they did not go into the city, but walked outside the city.
At first, Shen Yan didn't pay much attention, but as he came more often, he couldn't help but pay more attention.
In other words, these two people don't live in the city, and they don't live too far away from the mercenary city, otherwise they wouldn't be able to come here every day.
Outside the city, there are no human collectives such as villages at all, except for the emerald forest, the abyss, and the lost desert.
So where did these two people come from?
Shen Yan couldn't guess it before, but after going to the abyss today, he found that those ghosts in the abyss were very sensitive to light. Shen Yan even suspected that they could see at night, but were afraid of strong light.
And these two people were wrapped up tightly and seemed to be very
They didn't want anyone to notice them, and they lived close to each other, and they always wore extremely dark-colored goggles that were completely opaque.
Shen Yan looked at the two of them out of the corner of his eye. When they heard the discussion around them, they hurriedly put the uneaten food into their mouths and left in a hurry.
Bamboo raised his lips: "What, we can't play together, we are all people with wind-up toys."
After the people left, Bamboo also ran back, handed the wind-up frog to other children to play with, and then fed Dudu maltose.
The little tree man was a little disgusted at first, but he froze after taking it into his mouth.
Strange, strange, why he likes the sweet taste so much.
This smell... made my eyes squint in comfort.
Then he looked at the bamboo shoots.
Bamboo waved his hand: "No more."
The little tree man pointed directly at the lion who was selling maltose.
I thought he didn’t know that you were all in this together.
Sunzi said: "Then you have to exchange it with points."
The supplies in the group are collective. When everyone usually has a share, there is no need for points. But if you want to eat after eating, you have to use points to exchange for it.
This is fair to everyone and prevents anyone from endlessly taking the group's supplies.
Bamboo said again: "Actually, there are ways to earn points even if you don't have points."
Sunzi ran up to Dong Da, his eyes turned into slits with laughter: "Dong Da!"
Dong Da: "..."
This tone is definitely up to no good.
Sunzi: "Give me two pieces of maltose in exchange. You don't have a wife now, so why do you keep so many points?"
The little tree man's eyes are wide open, begging for mercy just for a little food? So shameful.
When Bamboo came back with a piece of maltose in one hand, the little tree man opened his mouth.
Feed him quickly.
Humph, it’s all because this candy is so delicious.
Shen Yan shook his head. How could a child like eating sweets so much all day long?
The night gradually darkened, and the two people wrapped in robes, one large and one small, returned to the shop.
Very silent.
Shen Yan glanced at the location of the abyss and saw that he had no place to go.
After thinking for a while, he walked over and said to the two of them: "You two, the gate to the abyss will not open until at least tomorrow. If you two have no place to stay, I can take you to a hotel in the city to stay for one night."
Shen Yan said that there were reasons for this job. The abyss was such a vast place with such a large population, and it was already a huge market.
Because of its close geographical location, this huge market will save a lot of transportation costs and labor costs, which are all money.
In addition, the Abyss is more resistant to humans than the Spirit Race. It would be best if the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group could seize the opportunity to conduct daily trade with the Abyss and become the only merchant with continuous dealings.
Of course, this process definitely does not happen overnight. Just like the Spirit Clan, they have had a lot of dealings with the Spirit Clan, but they still can only exchange bread for some fish with them every day.
The long-standing gap cannot be broken by anyone in a short time.
But there has to be a good start.
The two of them suddenly became alert.
This person definitely discovered their identity!
Shen Yan tried his best to keep a harmless smile on his face.
"You come to our shop every day. If I want to do anything to you, I don't have to wait until now, don't you think so?"
"This is just a kind invitation. Take it as an attempt by our Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group to be on good terms with you."
The two of them naturally know that tonight is the night of the scarlet moon. The scarlet moon is the roundest and largest time of the year, and it is also the time when all aberrant, abnormal, mysterious, and abnormal life activities are most rampant.
Tonight, it is very dangerous both in the city and in the wild.
The child said to the adult: "What should we do? Will we not be able to come here to eat in the future?"
The food here is really delicious and delicious. It would be a shame if I couldn't eat it again.
The adult glared at the child, now is the time to think about this?
First, we must find a way to survive tonight's crimson moon.
Shen Yan continued to get closer: "I don't know what to call you two?"
The adult said: "Li Xiang, just call this kid A Li."
"Can you be sure that our identities will not be exposed? If you can let us survive the crimson moon, I can give you a reward."
He believes in interests more than promises.
Human beings have always been like this. In the face of interests, relationships are the most stable.
Shen Yan was also a little surprised that these two people actually agreed.
Shen Yan probably still doesn't know how dangerous the Scarlet Moon Night is once a year.
After thinking for a while, he said: "That's okay. How about this? People in our mercenary group are allowed to enter the abyss to do business."
It is common knowledge that humans and ghosts in the abyss cannot enter and exit during the day, but these two people were able to do so with the help of their goggles.
In other words, these two people are not necessarily simple.
Li Xiang took a deep look at Shen Yan and replied, "I can't make the decision. Let's change the conditions."
Shen Yan was just trying, and knew that it would not be easy to succeed, so he said: "Let's do this. You can introduce more diners to us in the future. Business people always like business to be good."
At this time, Father Dong also came to notify the stall.
Shen Yan was surprised: "So early?"
In the past, I would go back after the sun had completely set and the moon came out. Sometimes I could still do a few orders under the moonlight.
Dad Dong shook his head when he heard this: "Tonight is the brightest night of the Feiyue. It will be too late when the moon comes out."
Shen Yan also went to talk to Zhao Kuo and took two friends into the city to find a hotel to stay for one night.
Zhao Kuo was stunned for a moment and looked at the big and small people in the shop: "Are you sure, friend?"
Shen Yan nodded.
Li Xiang and the kid named A Li also looked at Shen Yan strangely.
Zhao Kuo said "hmm" after a while.
Close the stall and go home.
Shen Yan discovered that in the originally bustling mercenary city, there were very few people on the road, and the only ones who were there were all in a hurry.
Shen Yan muttered: "Fei Yue is really that scary?"
It was Uther who answered him: "The night of the crimson moon is when all mysterious powers are at their highest."
"Even the Burning Tower buried deep underground will respond to this."
"It's also a carnival day for aberrations, monsters, etc."
Zhao Kuo asked the others to return to their base first, and then took Shen Yan and Li Xiang to find a hotel.
There are many hotels in Xiacheng District, and there are too many mercenaries coming and going in the Mercenary City. The biggest business of these hotels is to provide temporary resting places for these mercenaries.
We found a relatively clean and secluded hotel and arranged for the two of us.
Li Xiang and the child: "..."
How can everyone know their identity like.
Shen Yan and Zhao Kuo left.
And the sky, the scarlet month has risen.
Shen Yan looked up and was shocked by the scene that was seen directly.
An illusory girl, holding the moon in the vast starry sky.
That picture was so shocking.
At this time, Elder Xin Yi was annoyed by the emerald forest.
She couldn't mention that, so she had to find a way to take it on herself.
She is just an elderly elder. After tonight, she is estimated to be famous as the first spirit family to see the secrets of the old days.
As for the content of the old Japanese, it is too sensational. The elder group of the entire spirit family is now shaking and trembling.
At this time, Van Emperor City.
The abyss is too narrow, and in addition to bordering the city of mercenaries, it is the same as the City of Vatican.
The abyss gate of the mercenary city is closed. There is no other side of the City of Van Emperor. The businessman picks a burden of books with a burden. Tomorrow they will sell the "Ge Lilian Travels" to the entire Van Emperor City. How much does this make. !
