Chapter 473 What a pretty girl

The entrance to the black market is next to a dilapidated temple in the north of the city. There were no pedestrians on the street. Pei Zhaozhi originally offered to take Jiang Suining and the others there, but was rejected. Although no one in the black market would leave the black market and no one should be watching the entrance, it is still better to be cautious. Following the direction Pei Zhaozhi said, Jiang Suining and Xier quickly found an entrance to the west of the dilapidated temple. Standing outside and looking inside, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen. The underground black market in the imperial city is indeed built underground. Although the entrance is in the imperial city, the real main part is at the foot of the mountain to the north of the imperial city. It is a space that was dug out at an unknown time and with unknown manpower and material resources. Perhaps it was those people in past dynasties who had nowhere to go who dug and expanded it bit by bit, resulting in today's black market. "Are you scared?" Jiang Suining looked at Xier and asked. Xier swallowed nervously, "I'm scared, but I'm more scared that you won't take me in." Although she was scared, she would never let the young lady take risks alone. Even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire inside, she would accompany the young lady. Looking at Xier's eyes, Jiang Suining felt warm in her heart. She originally didn't plan to take Xier with her, but after hearing her purpose, Xier had to follow her anyway. And she also said that if it was Yang Huihui, she would definitely bring a personal maid, which was reasonable. Jiang Suining didn't say much, smiled at Xier to comfort her, took out the fire stick and blew it up, and walked into the cave first. Xier followed closely behind, and the two walked for about an incense stick of time before they finally saw a little light coming from the front. After walking for a while, seeing that the light was getting stronger and stronger, Jiang Suining extinguished the fire stick and walked out with Xier. Although it was close to midnight, the night in the black market had just begun and was very lively. Because it was underground, all lighting was used by lamps. Oil lamps were inlaid every few steps around the stone wall, and there were also lanterns of various colors, so it was not a problem to see things. But there were too many lanterns, and the colors were too mixed, like a dye vat of various colors overturned, which made people's eyes hurt. When someone came out of the cave, the originally noisy and noisy voices stopped instantly, and a dead silence crept up. The clothes on those people were also very irregular. Some looked like rags that were directly wrapped around their bodies after being simmered in the mud for several days, and some were brightly colored like poisonous mushrooms growing in the deep mountains and forests after the spring rain. And those scrutinizing and prying eyes were like the cold core of a snake, which made people feel cold on their backs. Jiang Suining only had eight words in his mind. Hundreds of ghosts are walking at night, and demons are dancing wildly. Xier was stared at so much that her face turned pale and she dared not look. Jiang Suining showed a frightened look and put on the hat of his cloak to block those sights. After they avoided their eyes, those people soon returned to their original state, and the noise that had been silenced instantly surged out again. Jiang Suining looked at Xier, motioned her to follow him, and soon walked into the crowd. However, she did not immediately look for the ferry and the underground river, but looked around, as if looking for something. After looking around almost everywhere, Jiang Suining, with a worried look on her face, mustered up the courage to walk to a stall. "Excuse me..." Jiang Suining had just said two words when she clearly felt several more eyes coming from behind her. "Excuse me, is there a bank here to withdraw money?" "Of course there is. We have an underground black market, banks, casinos, escort agencies, and even brothels and wine shops. We have everything!" The stall owner had a loud voice, but his expression looked a little sinister. After he finished speaking, he added, "It's just over here." "Where is it?" Xier asked hurriedly. The stall owner pointed, "Go in that direction to the river. Only by getting on the boat can you go to those places." Jiang Suining looked in the direction the stall owner pointed, and a trace of joy and gratitude appeared on his face, and he said to the stall owner. "Thank you." "Young lady, don't you want to take a look around? We have a lot of good stuff here." "No, no need." Jiang Suining shook his head nervously, and then took Xier and walked quickly in the direction pointed by the stall owner. After Jiang Suining and the others left, someone next to him said, "It looks like she's just a nervous young lady, nothing wrong." "I think so too." The stall owner nodded, "They dared to come to this black market with a little girl, and they don't look like spies from the court." "Anyway, those people yesterday were very strange. Let's be careful. If someone from the government gets in, the owner won't let us go." "I know, I know, do you need me to tell you."... Jiang Suining and Xier walked in that direction for a while, and they really saw an underground river. There were a few small boats parked by the river, and a few people who were not sure if they were boatmen were lazily leaning there. Seeing someone coming, a thin middle-aged man gestured to the big man who was sleeping next to him. The big man was only wearing a sleeveless shirt with a front opening, revealing two thick arms covered with tattoos, but there were too many scars on his arms, and it was hard to tell what was tattooed the first time. There was also a deep scar on his face from under his left eye to the corner of his mouth. Although it has healed, looking at the scar, one can imagine the wound at that time. It must have been a terrible wound with flesh and blood flying around, deep and visible to the bone. The big man opened his eyes and glanced over without hesitation, full of murderous intent. When he saw that there were only two women, he narrowed his eyes, and the murderous intent turned into contempt. "Cross the river?" These two simple words were full of pressure. Xier trembled all over, and Jiang Suining's face turned pale. He looked at the other party nervously and nodded. "Yes, I want to go to the bank." "Do you have proof?" the big man asked. "I only have this jade pendant, which my father gave me." Jiang Suining took out the jade pendant and spread it on his palm. The thin middle-aged man immediately stepped forward, picked up Jiang Suining's jade pendant and looked at it, then turned his head and said to the big man. "Brother, the jade pendant is fine." The big man hummed, glanced at the few people, and finally kicked the man who was sleeping with a hat on the opposite side. "You go and send it off." The man just shrank his legs and said lazily, "Brother, I'm sleeping, you should let the skinny dog ​​go." The skinny dog ​​was the middle-aged man who checked the jade pendant. Hearing this, he said to the big man in a flattering way. "Brother, how about I go." The big man ignored the skinny dog ​​and kicked the man again, "Stop talking nonsense, just go if I tell you to." This kick obviously increased the force, and the man took a breath of cold air and covered his leg. "Okay, okay, I'll go. If I had known that I would have to work in this black market, I would rather not come." Skinny Dog sneered, "Not coming? Then your hands would have been chopped off long ago." "I was careless, otherwise how could they catch me." The man stood up while muttering, and the hat covering his face fell off with the movement, revealing a handsome face. He was a very good-looking man. He looked at Jiang Suining, and the next moment, his eyes lit up instantly. "Oh, what a beautiful girl!"
