Chapter 159 Entering the Black Market to Take on Missions
Seeing someone come in, the old man who was lying on the counter doing nothing immediately hunched over and came forward to greet them. "Are you customers here to buy medicine?"
Pei Zhanzhou used his inner strength to suppress his voice, "I'm not buying medicine, I'm buying a knife."
If someone were to buy a knife in a pharmacy, an ordinary person would probably think he was looking for trouble, but the old man had a smiling expression on his face. "So it's a distinguished guest! I will show you the way."
He turned and walked behind the counter, hunched over, groping for something.
Jiang Wansang looked at the person beside her. Although her whole body was covered in a black robe, Pei Zhanzhou immediately understood what she wanted to ask.
He lowered his voice and replied, "Medicine saves lives, knives kill people. This is the password to enter the dungeon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a "click" sound was heard, interrupting what Jiang Wansang was about to say.
The medicine cabinet behind the old man suddenly split in the middle, revealing a dark passage.
The old man lit a torch and said, "My three distinguished guests, please follow me."
He walked into the passage first, and attentively lit the way for the three of them, without any intention of asking any questions along the way.
According to the rules of the black market, one is not allowed to inquire about the identity of the guests, so as a guide, he naturally would not say too much.
The few of them walked in silently. The passage continued to extend downwards. They didn't know how long they had been walking before the sound of talking gradually came from the originally silent passage. As they got closer, the sound became louder and louder.
Until I turned a corner, the scene in front of me suddenly became clear.
In this enclosed underground, there is actually a dungeon hidden. Except that the light is a little darker, it looks very much like the imperial city in the daytime.
I don’t know who established this black market, but they actually have such capabilities!
Although Jiang Wansang was curious, she knew that this question was not something that could be asked casually.
After the old man left, she followed Pei Zhanzhou to explore the underground city.
The underground city in the black market is the darkest place in the entire imperial city. Casinos, auction houses... all large-scale activities that are not allowed to be seen in public can be seen here.
It was obvious that this was not Pei Zhanzhou's first time here. After taking Jiang Wansang on a familiar tour, they came to a small stall on the corner of the street.
There was only a masked man sitting bored on a chair in the stall. Next to him stood three large wooden boards with various small wooden signs neatly hung on them. The signs were numbered in sequence.
Compared with other stores, this stall looks a bit simple and there are few people coming and going.
Seeing three people standing in front of him wearing black robes to conceal their identities, the man simply looked up and pointed to the side. "The mission content is behind the wooden sign. Go and get what you want."
Jiang Wansang was very curious, so she picked up a wooden sign and turned it over. On the back was written "Kill the owner of Yuntian Villa and there will be a reward of three thousand taels of silver."
She raised her eyebrows slightly and flipped through a few more pages. The contents were basically the same, except for one or two that occasionally asked to steal something.
Pei Zhanzhou was like a worm in Jiang Wansang's stomach, explaining without her even asking, "These are posted by some organizations in the underworld because they can't complete the tasks they've accepted, or because their employers don't want to reveal their identities. The tasks are listed in order of difficulty, the higher the difficulty, the harder it is. Some tasks have been on the list for years."
Pei Zhanzhou's voice was very low, but he was very close to Jiang Wansang, so every word he spoke was clearly heard.
Jiang Wansang didn't realize how close they were, and asked all her questions: "How do I accept a mission? And how do I hand it over after the mission is completed?"
Pei Zhanzhou: "Most of those who come here to accept tasks are individuals who don't want to reveal their identities, so they just need to take down the badge and register. Simple tasks must be completed within three days, and more difficult ones can be completed within ten days. If you don't return to hand over within the specified time, the badge will be hung up again..."
Although Jiang Wansang did not explain her plan in detail, Pei Zhanzhou was smart enough to guess it from the information she revealed, so he explained it in detail.
Jiang Wansang was a smart man and understood everything after listening to him only once.
Her eyes, hidden under the black robe, stared at the wooden board in front of her. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said, "I want to do something crazy."
Pei Zhanzhou turned his head to look over. Although he couldn't see her expression and didn't know what "crazy thing" she was talking about, he could guess that with this woman's personality, it was definitely something that would cause a sensation in the dungeon.
After a moment of silence, Pei Zhanzhou chuckled, "As long as you don't try to overturn the dungeon, you can do whatever you want."
He came along today because he was confident that he could protect her.
After years of planning in the Kingdom of Nansu, Grand Master Pei still has some confidence.
Perhaps she understood the meaning of his words, but the corners of Jiang Wansang's mouth hidden under the black robe curled up slightly, and a warm feeling flowed through her heart.
The next moment, she reached out and flipped over the top ten wooden plaques on the board. "Can you find the traces of these ten missions? Can you find out the character of the mission targets?"
Of the ten missions, two involved retrieving items, while the remaining three involved killing people. Being ranked first meant it was naturally more difficult, but Jiang Wansang was confident in herself. However, with her current strength, she couldn't find the trail so quickly.
Pei Zhanzhou took a quick look and said, "It shouldn't be difficult to find the trace. As for his luck..."
He pointed at three of them and said, "Except for these three who have a good reputation, the others are all villains known to everyone in the martial arts world."
Although Pei Zhanzhou would not pay special attention to these things, he had heard of some well-known news.
Hearing this, Jiang Wansang flipped back the three wooden signs he had pointed out and continued to flip through them in order. "What about these people?"
Although she felt that she was not a good person, she could not kill good people for money.
The two men spoke in a very low voice, and even Jiang Yi, who was following closely behind them, did not hear it. However, the action of standing in front of the wooden board and flipping over so many wooden signs at once still attracted the attention of the man guarding nearby.
Those who come here to accept tasks will indeed be picky about the tasks, but it is rare to see someone who only focuses on the tasks with the highest serial numbers like this.
After looking at them twice more, the man withdrew his gaze, thinking that they were either capable or arrogant, and did not take it seriously.
But a moment later, the three men came up to him with ten signs and said, "Sign up! We'll take these tasks."
Ten wooden signs were placed on the table at once, making a series of "ping pong" sounds. The man was so frightened that he stood there in a daze, and the sound also attracted the attention of some people passing by.
Almost everyone who could enter the dungeon knew what this stall was for, and they also noticed at a glance the ten empty signs on the wooden board next to it.
In addition, Jiang Wansang did not deliberately lower her voice just now, so everyone guessed what she wanted to do and looked at her in shock and curiosity.
It took the man a long time to react, his face showing surprise that even the mask couldn't hide. "Are you sure you want to accept all these missions?"
