"But... in Graystone City, there is an underground trade market, and the waters there are really deep."

There were many people coming and going nearby, and Nian Susu lowered his voice and asked her, "Is there any threshold to enter the underground market?"

The reason she asked this was that she was not sure about Nian Qiao Yue's exact location.

The fact that she appeared in Graystone City was already incredible to Nian Susu, let alone going to such a mysterious underground market.

It sounds like it's not a place that ordinary people can go.

Qin Junyu let out a light laugh, "The only threshold is money."

Nian Susu frowned and secretly complained: Does Nian Qiaoyue have money? How much money does she have? Can her money allow her to reach the threshold of the black market?

After thinking it over, she decided to call out the system.

Nian Susu: Let me take the blame, but at least give me a preparation address. This Limestone City is so big, wouldn’t it be like looking for a needle in a haystack for me to find someone?

【This is cheating, I can't tell you. 】

Nian Susu: It’s not like I haven’t cheated before, so this time won’t matter. Tell me now, or by the time I turn this thing over, Nian Qiaoyue’s body will be cold as hell.

The system went silent.

Nian Susu had no choice but to look through his backpack to see if there were any props that could be used.

There is something called a tracker, but it has to be installed on a person before it can be tracked. Even this is useless, and other props are useless.

The two of them walked aimlessly on the street, and Qin Junyu couldn't help asking her, "Where are we going? Is there anything you want to buy?"

It is not difficult to buy things in Graystone City. After all, this area is under the jurisdiction of Tianxuan Villa. They also have their base in the city, but it is a mixed bag. Those who can do business here must have some skills. Tianxuan Villa cannot completely control them.

The merchants wanted to continue to make a living here, so they didn't dare to offend Tianxuan Villa. All along, everyone kept to themselves to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

Qin Junyu had never been to Graystone City, but Xuanji had been there many times.

He is quite familiar with this place.

Nian Susu was considering how to start the conversation, but the system spoke at this time: [I can only tell you that Nian Qiaoyue was in the underground trade market that Qin Junyu mentioned. I cannot reveal anything else. You can only wish for the best.]

Her eyes lit up and she tugged at his sleeve, "Let's go to the underground market you mentioned."

Qin Junyu didn't hesitate at all, "Okay."

"But you have to follow me closely. You can't run around alone, and you can't get into trouble."

Nian Susu nodded, "Okay."

Qin Junyu led her into an alley, and after winding through several dilapidated paths, they finally reached the entrance.

There were several burly men guarding the place, staring at the two men ferociously.

They took only a few steps forward when they were blocked.

"Who are you? What goods do you want to pick up? How much money do you have on you?"

The big man looked at Nian Susu with confusion. He raised his head and looked inside. He touched his chin thoughtfully and muttered, "Why is there another person dressed like this..."

Nian Susu's heart was in her throat. Hearing the big man talking to himself, she was sure that Nian Qiaoyue was inside.

Qin Junyu remained calm and hugged Nian Susu into his arms. The latter cooperated very well, leaning shyly on his shoulder and lowering his chin even more. One was tall and domineering, while the other was petite and delicate, which was pleasing to the eye.

He made an impatient "tsk" sound, but said in a light tone: "I brought my darling to buy some good things, you just need to remember Wang Zhaotang's head, why are you asking so many questions?"

Wang Zhaotang is an organization of Tianxuan Villa and a gang that manages the underground business of Huiyan City. Almost everyone in the city knows Wang Zhaotang.

When the big man heard Wang Zhaotang, his expression changed, but his body did not give in at all and his attitude remained bad.

"What? Do you want me to call Hall Master Bai Zhaobai over before you let me go?" Qin Junyu became even more impatient and was about to lose his temper.

Many people know Wang Zhaotang, but few know Bai Zhao's name.

Although the gatekeepers are not internal staff, in order to avoid offending anyone, the black market usually draws up a list for them. This list is the "white list", and anyone whose name is on it cannot be offended.

Bai Zhao - the master of Wangzhao Hall, his name is ranked first.

The big man quickly moved aside to let them in.

Although it is called an underground market, it is not underground, but in a cave.

As soon as you enter, you will see a narrow corridor. The sunlight is gone, and the mountain wall is illuminated by various candles embedded in the wall. The further you go inside, the stranger the smell becomes.

Nian Susu held his breath until he could hold it no longer, then he exhaled deeply and held his breath again.

Qin Junyu seemed to notice her little action and took a handkerchief and tied it under her nose. The faint scent of cedar and a little tea was comfortable to smell.

Only then did Nian Su Su dare to breathe.

The two continued to walk inside, and after about a hundred steps, they heard a noise coming from the front.

Nian Susu couldn't see clearly through the gauze curtain of the veil, but he vaguely saw a group of people gathered together. In the middle was a person tied to a wooden frame, and nearby was a pot of boiling water, bubbling.

The firelight reflected on their faces. Everyone had a horrible smile on their faces and shouted, "Boil him! Boil him!"

Nian Susu roughly guessed what was going on. Her stomach churned. She was about to ask Qin Junyu to take her away quickly, but she heard him say, "Why is it the Second Miss Nian?"

Nian Susu's heart skipped a beat and the hand that was holding Qin Junyu's arm tightened.

"Are you here to look for the second young lady Nian?" Qin Junyu's question did not sound like a question, but rather a request for confirmation.

At this point, Nian Susu had nothing to hide, "Yes, I am here to save her."

At this time, the system reminded her: [Host, you have ten minutes left. ]

Qin Junyu protected her and helped her squeeze through layers of people and reach the innermost layer.

A huge heat wave surged and hit the curtain of Nian Susu, lifting a small corner, and she saw Nian Qiaoyue tied to a wooden frame.

Nian Qiaoyue's hair was disheveled and she twisted desperately, trying to break free from the ropes that bound her. Sweat and tears were stuck on her face, making her look very embarrassed. Because she was only focused on saving herself, she did not notice Qin Junyu and Nian Susu in the crowd.

"Everyone, tell me, should we cook it medium-rare or medium-rare?" Next to the big iron pot, there was a man holding a torch. He smiled, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. He glanced excitedly at everyone, finally stopping at Qin Junyu and Nian Susu.

These two people are out of tune with the people around them in terms of both their dress and temperament. It can be said that they are like two pieces of white jade falling among the broken iron stones, eye-catching and dazzling.

The people around shouted that they wanted the dish to be medium-rare, but the man turned a deaf ear to them and walked up to Nian Susu with a smile.

Nian Susu subconsciously shrank behind Qin Junyu.
