Chapter 199: Starry Jade
Beicangshan, District City Night Market.
Night markets usually start from late at night to dawn, with a history of about five hours. Usually, there are some night markets outside, and Han Lin has seen them before. However, most of those night markets are sold quietly for some "contraband". Because they are held at night, many things are illegal. Or stolen or robbed, some are more special, such as human trafficking, beautiful women of the monster clan, slaves, etc.
The urban night market is different, divided into two streets. These two streets are also very interesting. They are both circular and are famous "ghost streets" in the urban area. The outer ring is occupied by untouchables, and they sell the most common goods. It is absolutely impossible to find good things here, because untouchables are very dangerous in the district city. Many times they are killed without a reason, so they only dare to come over when the old men are resting at night and sell and exchange some daily necessities.
The inner ring ghost street is completely the opposite, it is a trading market for real "big people". Most of them are servants, coming from the upper three islands. Like the night markets outside, they also sell some illegal items. In order to avoid the pursuit of enemies and beware of them, they come from the San Isles to the Ghost Street in the Four Mountains and trade with experts who are also secretly appearing. The outer ring ghost street survived, which can be said to be because of the protection of the inner ring ghost street. Because they need those untouchables to serve as a cover.
Everyone knows this kind of thing, but no one will make it clear. The District Lord will not care about it, so naturally he can't afford to offend those servants.
Seeing that it was still early, it was about three hours before the young man from the village came together, but Han Lin sold all herbs early. He was carrying two wild pheasants in his hand and was strolling on the outer ring ghost street, thinking of exchanging some strange and fun gadgets for Shen Yu.
But there is nothing good about the outer ring ghost street. Apart from food and herbs, the best one is just some fabric that can barely attract attention. Moreover, the fabric is also coarse cloth, which is better than the "strange materials" that can make hemp ropes by twisting.
"You sell it first, I'll take a look." After a round, there was no gain. Han Lin finally got up in his mind as an inner ring ghost street. Ordinary untouchables would never dare to get close, but Han Lin was not afraid. The reason why he was so tolerant was because Shen Yu repeatedly told him that with his strength alone, he would not encounter any opponents in the four mountains.
"Brother Han, I only dare to go around the outer ring, but I dare not go to the inner ring. Be careful to get into trouble, remember." The young men didn't care too much, but just told me a few words according to the usual instructions. In fact, the untouchables could not step into the inner ring ghost street. There was a gully cut by sword between the inner and outer rings, which was the boundary between the inner and outer rings. It was easy for the untouchables to be killed by a knife and a knife. Unless they were lost, no one would approach.
"Don't worry, I'm not that bold." Han Lin laughed mockingly, but bypassed a road and walked slowly towards the inner ring ghost street.
The outer ring is still dim, but the inner ring is even more gloomy. Occasionally, you can only see the stars and lights flashing, and basically you can't see people or see the road. Only experts can clearly identify them based on their feelings.
I looked back and saw that no one was paying attention. Then I stepped across the gully and walked straight into the inner ring. Several high bell towers were set up in the inner ring, and four cold lights shot down from the bell tower and rushed towards Han Lin. The cold light could not see any signs in the night, and even the sound of air rupture was owed.
Not to mention the untouchables, if you were an ordinary yin-sage monk, you would be penetrated by the four cold lights. Han Lin smiled faintly, and he was eager to try it out. He knew that these four cold lights were the signs of identifying the identity on the bell tower. The Sin City is very strict, and the servants would never live with the untouchables. Even if a untouchable accidentally stepped into the inner ring, he would kill them directly. In the servants' eyes, breathing with the untouchables is a great shame, so there is a division between the four levels of the upper and lower parts of the sin City.
Needless to say, these four cold lights are the best and easiest way to detect whether the person is a pariah or a monk.
Han Lin was very confident that four cold lights would turn back from the air with just one hand and shoot the person on the bell tower to death. Thinking of Shen Yu's warning, he could only helplessly take it and throw it to the side of the road. Someone on the bell tower immediately turned his eyes away when he saw this scene and stopped paying attention to Han Lin.
"It's time to have some good things here. If you buy them back and give them to Yu'er, she will complain at most and will never really blame her." While thinking, she walked forward, but she was fumbled into the herbs in Qiankun bag. Shen Yu said that she must not move those herbs, but Han Lin had already made up the idea of these herbs.
"Huh?" I had never entered the inner ring in the past, but when I really came in, I realized how unique I was. This simple and rough linen dress was particularly conspicuous, while the others were all black robes, which seemed to have been discussed long ago.
Seeing too many people looking at him frequently, Han Lin took out a black cloak from Qiankun's bag and pressed his hat low on his face. There were some memories in his heart, which were prepared in the past, and there were still quite a lot.
The things sold here are extraordinary. There are swords, guns, swords, halberds and various weapons, and the outer ring is absolutely invisible. Since the mines are controlled by powerful people, it is very good for ordinary untouchables to exchange for some farmed iron tools. Most of the iron tools are even rented and rent is paid every month, which shows how precious the mines are here.
"Linglong jade pendant is produced from Linglong Island."
The stall owner deliberately changed his voice and introduced the jade pendant that Han Lin was playing with. The jade pendant was round and full of luster, and it felt as delicate as a cream but not cold. The tentacles were warm and pleasant, and they were really good.
As he said that, the stall owner stretched out his hand to hand Han Lin. Han Lin had never seen this in his life, but he knew it in his previous life. He also stretched out his hand, and the two of them held their hands in the loose sleeves. The stall owner stretched out three fingers. This action cannot be seen by outsiders. It is called a code word. You see someone else buying it, but you don’t know how much it costs. If someone else spends a gold coin, you can only be considered unlucky and don’t know the goods.
Han Lin secretly stumbled, three life soul coins were so expensive! This was the price of the three heads of the lowest wanted criminal on the wanted order. He shook his head at the moment.
The stall owner turned three fingers into two more. Seeing that Han Lin still shook his head, he withdrew his hand, and said nothing and said no more.
Han Lin didn't have any of the life soul coins, but he really wanted to buy a jade pendant and give it to Shen Yu, which was considered as Shen Yu's name.
"This, please weigh it." Han Lin put his hand in the Qiankun bag, hid it between his sleeves and reached out to the stall owner. The stall owner touched a soft grass, took it back and took it under the sleeve and looked at it. His face changed slightly. This is a veritable third-grade herb!
How valuable things are depends on how much the buyer needs them. If a person continues to have third-grade herbs, it will be useless if you give him ten thousand second-grade herbs, and it will be useless if he wants to come. Moreover, the Four Mountains will not produce third-grade herbs.
"Transfer..." The stall owner was about to finish the deal, but unexpectedly someone stepped into the deal. He put a black loose sleeve on Han Lin's wrist and squeezed it tightly.
Yin Xiu San. Han Lin instantly judged the strength of a person and felt a little disdainful. A guy of this level dared to make a rash. He would vomit blood and die when he was shocked with his backhand.
But this action was not performed because he saw the treasure that made his eyes shine!
The man in black who had been kicked halfway through the way took out a pendant and shook it in front of Han Lin. With just one look, Han Lin was moved.
"Fanxing Jade comes from Fanxing Island, it is the third-grade. Change your third-grade red blood grass." The man's voice was low, and a long scar could be seen on his face. What's strange is that the scar was not a knife wound, but it seemed like something was bitten by a bite.
The star jade is pure black all over, but it is also a kind of transparent black, like the vast night sky. The most valuable thing is that there are gold and jade embellishments inside the jade body. At first glance, it looks like stars in the sky, and the price is more than twice that of Linglong jade. The so-called third grade is determined based on the number of gold and jade inside the black jade. The more gold and jade, the better the quality, the more valuable it is.
"This guest, you don't seem to understand the rules. Let's talk about it." The stall owner's voice became cold. It was indeed a violation of the industry rules when the outsiders of the two parties intervened.
The man in black who intervened, hugged his shoulders with his hands and said coldly: "Seventy."
The stall owner sighed and said nothing more. He returned the Zhuxue grass to Han Lin and waited for the next buyer with half-squinted eyes.
What is seventy? Han Lin was slightly stunned but didn't understand the meaning. Why did the stall owner no longer feel embarrassed after saying that seventy?
"Your is here." Scarface exchanged herbs and jade pendants with Han Lin in his sleeves, and immediately turned around and left.
Han Linsi ordered and quickly caught up with him: "Wait a minute." After saying that, he reached out to put his hand on the man's shoulder.
But he didn't know that this time he caused trouble. The scarred face thought Han Lin was going to regret it, so he just punched him.
Han Lin hid sideways and was not willing to cause more trouble. He smiled and said, "Don't get it wrong. Your wounds cannot be cured."
"You know?" Scarface retracted his fists and looked at Han Lin in surprise. Unexpectedly, the thin boy in front of him could avoid his attack.
"I understand, your injury is heat and cold rather than deficiency and cold. Using red blood grass to treat it will aggravate the condition. I saw that you can smell the smell of red blood grass to distinguish it, and it is also considered to be someone who understands some pharmacology. So I give you this advice, if you want, I will give you a cold snow grass to cure your illness."
Han Lin had a good intention, but it was not easy to meet a person who knew pharmacology here, and he had no soulmate. He saw that the man could only call out the name of Zhuxuecao by just sniffing it with his nose. He was willing to speak out for justice.
"Thank you."
Scarface snorted and turned away, ignoring Han Lin's persuasion at all. No one wants to trust strangers in this kind of place, but only believes in himself. He cannot be sure whether Han Lin wants to harm him.
Han Lin smiled lightly and turned around and walked away, continuing to look for some fun and delicious food. Thinking of Shen Yu's surprise expression, his heart gradually began to warm up.
