The visitors obviously had bad intentions, but Jiang Chenchuan didn't say anything more, but wanted to see what they wanted to do.
He and Ethan looked at each other. Smart people sometimes don't need to communicate. They could detect those ill-intentioned eyes falling on Lena. Most of the time, Lena was too well protected. The Black Hat Hotel kept her As a future manager, I naturally didn't feel sorry for her.
Jiang Chenchuan could only protect her behind him calmly, facing the pressure brought by that group of people without flinching at all.
"What is this?"
Ethan showed an interested expression and started talking to the other person. The other person seemed to regard them as lambs to be slaughtered, took out their insignificant products, and offered high prices.
"They are bullying people..."
Just as Reina was about to say something, she was stopped by Jiang Chenchuan, who tugged at the corner of his clothes, looking unconvinced, but still backed away obediently.
"How about it? Think about it."
Several people gathered around, as if they were looking at the goods, but in fact, they were putting pressure on Jiang Chenchuan and the others.
With such an obvious trouble, Jiang Chenchuan tightened his grip on the cane in his hand. Although almost no one dared to cause conflicts in the black market, they were sure that Ethan and this group of powerless students did not dare to resist.
Just when the battle was about to break out, Ethan picked up the so-called merchandise in their hands and looked at it. Among the pile of inconspicuous parts and coins, something seemed to be flowing.
"Bought."
Ethan smiled and said quickly, as if he was afraid that they would regret it, and put the things in his hand into his pocket.
"What?"
Reina was a little surprised, she whispered:
"Don't be afraid, this is the hotel's territory, I will notify you later..."
"It's okay, I bought it, but I didn't bring that much money tonight. Let's see if this is enough..."
Ethan looked at the group of people, took out the money bag from his arms, turned it around in his hands, it was quite a lot, and threw it readily into the man's arms. The man opened it hesitantly, and gold and silver were mixed together. , indeed valuable.
"Okay, that's the deal!"
The man didn't talk nonsense, and they didn't want to cause trouble in the black market. They winked at their accomplices, and they left quickly. They were probably very happy to meet such a victim.
"Ethan, are you stupid? Such an obvious blackmail..."
Rena couldn't stand it anymore, so she stood up and said.
"It's nothing to me, but to be able to put that group of rabble into the trading market, it seems that there is something wrong with the hotel's screening. Miss Reina, you need to handle this matter properly."
Ethan took out the pile of junk-looking parts from his pocket and took out a coin.
This is not a trading coin. It is engraved with a pattern like an anchor, and the pattern on the other side is probably a soaring eagle.
"That's probably why I bought it."
Jiang Chenchuan gestured.
"This is a kind of Xinlan culture. Legend has it that in ancient times, the Xinlan sea area was not an ocean, but a complete land. The country above was such a symbol, representing wandering and freedom. Moreover, I heard that Xinlan The name of the sea area also comes from the country that has been submerged.”
“It seems that for every country that is near an ocean, there is a desire to conquer it.”
"It's a pity that so far, no one has been able to conquer the Xinlan Sea."
Lena couldn't help but sigh, even she would be full of curiosity about that unknown ocean.
"this is for you."
Ethan handed the coin to Jiang Chenchuan.
"You have to be in awe of the sea. If I am not wrong, there is a high probability that this will be a relic. However, its power and function have not yet been revealed, and I cannot use it. I don't know if it will be harmful. I can test it. the sequence of."
"Okay, got it."
Jiang Chenchuan reached out and took it.
I didn't expect to find relics when I went out to the market, but it was good to be able to solve the problem with money and avoid the danger of the recyclers.
As soon as he touched it, he felt a wave of heat coming towards him, and the power in his body seemed to be trying to make contact with the coin. It seemed that Ethan was right, there was a high probability that this would be a relic from his sequence.
"Let's go, I haven't chosen a weapon yet."
After wasting a lot of time, I went back and saw that most of the products that should be selected and bought had been picked out, and some of the remaining alchemy raw materials were of no use to Jiang Chenchuan.
Ethan was very happy, shopping here and there, who asked him to spend all his money to buy that coin. If he liked anything, he would ask Reina and Jiang Chenchuan to borrow it first.
Therefore, he carried two cash machines and made purchases without any psychological pressure.
After wandering around like this until the black market closed, Jiang Chenchuan didn't buy what he wanted. After thinking about it, he found that no matter what, he still used his staff and sword smoothly.
"It seems that you can only come again next time."
Reina looked at Jiang Chenchuan with empty hands and said apologetically.
"fine."
Jiang Chenchuan responded.
In the end, only Ethan returned home with a full load.
He got on the carriage, lit a light cigarette, and the sparks flickered on and off in the darkness. He waved to the two of them, and the coachman drove away in the carriage.
No
No matter how lively the banquet was, it was always so deserted when it ended. Only the hat logo of the Black Hat Hotel was still lit in the dark night.
"Go home first."
Jiang Chenchuan also said hello to Leina and left alone. It wasn't far anyway, and he walked home very quickly. He exhaled a breath and condensed into white mist in the air, which was in sharp contrast to the warmth in the room. .
It's no wonder that some people don't want to leave after staying in the greenhouse for a long time. They choose to stay in the hotel for one night and leave tomorrow morning.
Looking at the World Tree not far away, always brightly lit, Jiang Chenchuan thought of the lighthouse in the sea, which seemed to look like the World Tree.
No matter where he is or how far away he is, he seems to be able to reach Polnia by relying on the World Tree.
I believe they are like this too. Countless people came to this prosperous city and were attracted by the advanced technology and energy, but they all failed miserably in survival.
Jiang Chenchuan can always see the struggles of some people who are not born in Bornia. They do useless labor day after day, and the money they earn can only barely cover their own living expenses.
If one day, disaster really strikes and the tragedy of Ronark City happens again, no one in this land can stay away.
Ta-ta-ta...
Some rickshaw drivers who were finishing their work were preparing to rush home. After a busy day, they could finally rest in a warm cabin without the cold wind. Their fingers were cracked by the cold and the thick clothes they wore were suffering from severe pain. Survive the erosion of wind and snow.
"etc."
Jiang Chenchuan raised his hand to stop a moving carriage.
"What's the matter? Sir."
The driver stopped, looking puzzled.
"I want to rent a car."
"It's very late, sir."
"This money should be enough to buy your car."
Those were Evel's last savings. Although he was working for the museum and didn't have to worry about next month's food and salary, it was indeed an impulse purchase.
After looking at the golden coins, the coachman's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.
This was completely Jiang Chenchuan's whim, a completely unplanned action. No one knew where he was going. When he got on the carriage, the coachman showed a happy smile on his face to see him off.
Sure enough, as long as the money is in place, nothing is impossible.
The wheels began to turn, and with the sound of "tap-tat-tat", they gradually went farther and farther away. They did not stop until they passed his home, but disappeared at the end of the road.
Left alone, alone.
Jiang Chenchuan didn't have much obsession with saving Polnia, but if everything was destroyed, where would he go?
Go home?
The fact before him was that he could no longer return to his own era or the country he truly loved.
Too many burdens were placed on his shoulders, and he could only carry forward like this. Perhaps, he didn't need to think so much, as long as he did the right thing, it would be easier.
However, there is still a source of pollution in his body. He cannot stop thinking, cannot stop, and cannot give original sin any opportunity to take advantage of.
Sometimes, life is so helpless, as if it is a closed prison, and all we can do is fight fearlessly against trapped animals.
The cold wind hit Jiang Chenchuan's face, making him extremely awake without a trace of sleepiness. Maybe he didn't want to fall asleep tonight.
"Original sin, witch, Ronark City, Xinlan sea area, pollution source..."
The most important information is here, and every step he takes next is critical.
Including Bellito's unintentional words when he went to find Lochran that day, maybe he really saw something in the sea, something really...
"original sin."
Jiang Chenchuan called out, and a figure appeared next to him. In the roar of the strong wind, not even a corner of his clothes danced, but asked with interest:
"What? Have you figured it out?"
"No, I want to ask you a question."
Jiang Chenchuan said calmly, after all, the original sin is currently in a transaction relationship with him, so it can be used.
"You know, now, my answers are not free."
Now that the true purpose has been exposed, the trust built before is almost gone, and it is unwilling to continue to pretend to be friendly. This is the way to obtain information. The more you communicate, the more you lose.
"If you compare it with the pollution in the sea, who is stronger?"
Jiang Chenchuan ignored his words and continued to ask for the answer he wanted to know.
"Want to know? In exchange for what I want, you can try it."
Original Sin did not answer his doubts. His figure gradually became transparent and finally disappeared in the dark night.
The conversation seemed like nothing, but in Jiang Chenchuan's heart, he had already gotten the answer he wanted.
A small sound rang out in the street, mainly in the quiet night, and it seemed that the small sound was also a bit noisy. Jiang Chenchuan ran all the way towards the sea and did not stop until he was close to the coast.
It's almost the same location, and you can still smell the salty smell of the sea in the air, but the coast has returned to tranquility, the sunken ship has been disposed of, and the cordon on the shore has been withdrawn.
Only the occasional patrolling policeman was still wandering around with his flashlight, and the beam swept across the sea. It was peaceful without any waves.
It seems that he is abiding by the promise of the sea. When he arrives, he will not make a sound, even the sea is the same.
"We have to hurry up, it's too cold outside."
The patrolling policeman couldn't help complaining. He wrapped his windproof coat tightly, but he still felt cold.
Jiang Chenchuan stood in the shadow. As long as he was not caught by the light, no one could detect his whereabouts. He had sneaked in from the outside and was hiding in the darkness observing the sea.
The last time he came here, he was anxious to leave, but this time, he planned to investigate carefully.
…
The author has finished handling the matter today, for the last time, and will update normally thereafter.
Reina couldn't stand it anymore, so she stood up and said.
"It's nothing to me, but to be able to put that group of rabble into the trading market, it seems that there is something wrong with the hotel's screening. Miss Reina, you need to handle this matter properly."
Ethan took out the pile of junk-looking parts from his pocket and took out a coin.
This is not a trading coin. It is engraved with a pattern like an anchor, and the pattern on the other side is probably a soaring eagle.

“It seems that for every country that is near an ocean, there is a desire to conquer it.”
"It's a pity that so far, no one has been able to conquer the Xinlan Sea."
Lena couldn't help but sigh, even she would be full of curiosity about that unknown ocean.
"this is for you. "
Ethan handed the coin to Jiang Chenchuan.
"You have to be in awe of the sea. If I guessed correctly, there is a high probability that this will be a relic. However, its power and function have not yet been revealed, and I cannot use it. I don't know if it will be harmful. I can test it. the sequence of."
"Okay, got it."
Jiang Chenchuan reached out and took it.

Ethan was very happy. He was shopping here and there. Who asked him to spend all his money to buy that coin? If he liked anything, he would ask Reina and Jiang Chenchuan to borrow it first.
