The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 587
Chapter 587
For people like Wen Li, she always lives in the most glamorous and beautiful place, full of turbid alcohol, and the underground world of carnival shouts is destined to be missed by her, if it is other times, I am afraid she will be for the rest of her life. Would not come to such a smoky place.
But under Du Lei’s leadership, she finally saw what the underground world was like. After opening the door, a huge square appeared. Originally, Wen Li thought it was hidden underground and the door was such a small place. , At best, it hides a place like a casino.
But it’s true that there is a casino in the underground world, but the area of only one casino is more than twenty times the size of the little-known tavern on the surface! Many people gathered in the square, these people gathered in twos and threes, whispering.
Wen Li also saw that they were stuffing something secretly, as if they were making a deal. Because it was underground, there was no moonlight here. The lighting provided was the “cold flame” around the square. The cold flame was A kind of magic stone, which has the function of lighting.
There are a large number of buildings in the four corners of the square. Among these buildings, there are not only a tavern with a large number of mercenaries, a casino with a large number of gamblers, and a blacksmith shop where the sound of “clanging” iron is heard. It’s a huge underground market!
“Is this the underground world? It seems very different from what I imagined.” Wen Li was amazed at this.
“Then Miss Wen Li, what is the underground world you imagined like?” Du Lei asked her back slowly.
“Is the underground world in my imagination? I don’t know, but at least…it’s not that big, right?” Wen Li blinked and replied.
The height of the underground plaza reached more than ten meters, and you couldn’t see the head at a glance. She saw hundreds of people coming and going. It was even more lively than on the ground. This is true. It opened her eyes.
“The underground world is engaged in transactions that are prohibited on the surface. Look at the few people over there. They are trading banned drugs. On the other side, those people are trading. I guess that’s right. , It’s some alchemy materials.” Du Lei pointed to the front and whispered.
“Alchemy materials? But why should these things be sold underground and not in the right store?” Wen Li still didn’t quite understand.
“Because all things sold in regular stores can be recorded by merchants, and the whereabouts can be investigated. Moreover, some sellers are afraid of being missed and are not very good at promoting what they hold. Of course, there is a problem. “Du Lei paused when he said that.
“What’s the problem?” Wen Li asked curiously. She followed Du Lei cautiously, looking a little nervous.
“That is, all the sales of the shops on the ground are subject to tax. If they are sold in the underground world, they can avoid a huge tax. Okay, put this on.” Du Lei handed it to Wen Li. mask.
“This is…” Wen Li hesitated.
“This is to avoid unnecessary trouble. Except for the locals who have been here for a long time, almost all outsiders wear masks.” Du Lei pointed to several masked people not far away and reminded him.
“It turned out to be so, Mr. Du Lei, you know so much!” Wen Li took the mask and put it on, full of admiration in her speech.
“To survive in this world, you have to follow its rules. By the way, Miss Wen Li, do you have money with you?” Du Lei asked.
“Money? This…” Wen Li hesitated for a while, looking embarrassed.
“To get information here, you have to spend money, you can buy almost everything you want with money, but if you don’t have money, I’m afraid it will be a little troublesome.” Du Lei was a little bit distressed.
“I’m very sorry, I have never brought any money with me, but… this should be able to exchange some money, right?” Wen Li thought for a while, took a ring from her hand and gave it to Du Lei. Du Lei had seen this ring a long time ago, and she kept it with her.
“It should be worth some money. Did you buy it?” Du Lei took the ring and weighed it, with a ruby inlaid on the ring.
“I didn’t buy it, but… my mother left it to me.” Wen Li responded softly.
“Stay?” Du Lei caught the meaning of this word.
“Yes, my mother left when I was very young, so I always took it with me.” Wen Li nodded gently.
“Then it has extraordinary significance to you? Why do you want to sell it?” Du Lei asked her back.
“But, Mr. Du Lei, didn’t you just say that you have to spend money to get information. I have nothing to help Mr. Du Lei on this journey, so…” Wen Li said she wanted to talk again. end.
“So you want to help me in this way?” Du Lei said what she didn’t say.
“Yes.” Wen Li lowered her head, she didn’t want to look at the ring again, so as not to bring back sad memories.
“Since it is such an important thing, you put it away properly.” Du Lei returned the ring to her.
“Huh? But…” Wen Liu hesitated.
“It’s nothing, you don’t have money with you, but I do.” Du Lei responded with a smile.
“Is that so? That’s great.” Wen Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she took the ring back.
“I’m just too bored by myself, just ask casually, you follow me, be careful, don’t cause unnecessary trouble.” Du Lei cautiously warned Wen Li, his words are more than just a reminder .
Ever since he and Wen Li entered the underground world, he noticed several pairs of eyes hanging on them.
If it wasn’t for his urgent need for information, he wouldn’t risk coming here with Wen Li.
“Understood! I will definitely not drag Mr. Du Lei your hind legs!” Wen Li nodded heavily.
She quickened her pace to follow Du Lei, and the two quickly passed towards the square in front.
Just as the two disappeared, there was a flickering figure in the dark corner.
“Jie Jie Jie Jie, what a delicious prey, I haven’t smelled such a delicious prey in a long time…” His voice was hoarse.
“Hey, this is what I focused on first. Don’t grab it with me.” Another shadow appeared nearby.
“Asshole, who is robbing with whom? Are you trying to taste the sharpness of my claws?” Shadow was very angry at this.
“Don’t quarrel with you two, since they have come to the underground world, they can’t escape, it’s just the kid next to her…”
“That kid reveals a disgusting breath. I don’t like his flesh, so I will give him to you.”
The hoarse voice filled the darkness, and the shadow of death always followed.
