$ Chapter 239 Rally
A cloud of mist rose, and the surrounding water environment became blurred.
I don't know how long it has been. The boat stopped on a river beach.
"We're here, please get off the boat."
The old man's voice came.
Han Yi got off the boat and stood still, his feet stepping on a wet sand.
Looking around, it seems to be located on the river bank. There are many houses in front, neatly arranged in rows, and there are several tall buildings inside, which look like a prosperous commercial street.
And further ahead is a tall earthen fortress. It is called an earthen fortress, but it is actually no different from a small city.
There are city walls, gates, patrol soldiers, everything.
As a Yingjiabao with a martial artist who has entered the Jin Dynasty, it has the strength to build such a defensive castle.
'The location of the market should be on the commercial street here...'
Han Yi carefully looked at the surrounding environment.
‘This Yingjiabao is quite a good person...’
He thought to himself that the gathering might be held inside Yingjiabao. Now it seems that Yingjiabao must have found a piece of open space and built such a prosperous area.
It is probably for safety and concealment.
After all, it is not easy to get here by water, and there is a city-like earthen fort in front. If there is anything, the trading parties here can just run away.
This is quite considerate.
“This market...is completely different from what I imagined...”
“It is too prosperous.”
Han Yi smiled, paid a penny of silver, and mixed into the crowd and entered the market.
"Rare weapons, rare weapons, the Mingfeng Taihuang sword that can break gold and jade and cut iron like mud, only ten taels of silver, ten taels of silver!"
"Big sale, big sale, plum blossom chicken for one coin per pound, plum~blossom~chicken!"
"Practice martial arts, practice martial arts, the white bone claw method that is said to kill all living things with one claw, with a visualization diagram, can be practiced from the skin refining stage to the Tongmai martial arts master, big discount~"
At the entrance of the market, stall owners with veils were shouting loudly.
Han Yi looked at these things casually, shook his head and left.
That so-called Mingfeng Taihuang sword, there is no need to even look at it, it is probably painted with some dyes and thrown into the manure pit to make it fake.
He knew that plum blossom chicken seemed to be a rare artificially cultivated tonic monster, with tender meat and full of blood. The price is not cheap.
But what was on the stall was indeed "plum blossom chicken", and each piece of chicken had a plum blossom inserted on it.
The last stack of secret manuals was even more ridiculous. It was obvious that a martial arts with visualization diagrams could not be easily taken out and placed on the ground.
Those that appeared here were 100% fake.
‘Sure enough, whether it was the black market or the market, there were people who played tricks... but they could only trick newbies... Unfortunately, I am no longer playful...’
Han Yi complained in his heart and walked towards the commercial street.
He had received Huang Ze's instructions a long time ago, and knew that the things outside were all tricks, and the real fine products were all inside.
Soon, he came to a commercial street, where there were almost no small vendors in the open space at the gate, and almost all of them were shops.
Most of these shops were open, with lanterns hanging high, and red, yellow, and green banners hanging in front of the door, with all kinds of goods on the shelves inside, but not many people.
Han Yi could understand that those who came to the market to buy things were all casual martial artists. To put it bluntly, they were all poor people, so naturally they were short of money and had no money to spend in such boutique stores.
That was him...
"It should be here..."
Han Yi looked at the red bow and arrow logo on the plaque and muttered.
The light here was very dim, with only a lantern lit on the plaque.
According to Huang Ze, this was a shop that sold high-quality monster meat resources, and the quality was so high that it was almost comparable to that provided by the sect.
When Bai Yuechou was still Huang Ze's disciple, he followed him to learn skills and become his apprentice.
At that time, Huang Ze had not yet opened his meridians and entered the Jin, and from time to time, he would come here to buy meat for Bai Yuechou to add to his meal.
Han Yi stood outside the house and looked inside the open wooden door. The light inside was also very dim, with only an oil lamp lit, and the flame burning on the wick was actually emerald green.
The spring is getting warmer and colder, and the wind is still cold at night. The awning sways desolately in the wind, hitting the wooden wall, making a light "crackling" sound.
The wick also sways with it, and the bloody bones on the chopping board in the house can be vaguely seen.
At the same time, as the lamp oil burns, a strange aroma diffuses around.
Han Yi swallowed his saliva and felt a little hungry.
'This lamp oil... is wrong... This can't be a black shop...'
The image of Huang Ze, a drunkard who was drunk all day and soaked in a wine jar, appeared in Han Yi's mind.
He became more and more suspicious, whether Huang Ze happened to be drunk when he went there that day, and told him a real black shop!
Just as he was thinking, a rough voice suddenly sounded: "Are you here to buy meat?"
Han Yi looked over and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. This time, he was really a little scared.
Behind the chopping board, there was a pile of meat spread on the bed.
No, it should be a bed, a mountain of flesh standing on a large wooden board.
"Your Mightiness......."
Han Yi considered the words and organized his words.
This is an unimaginably fat man!
About two meters tall, the white fat flesh was like layers of tires stacked on top of each other, and the loose skin was covered with grease.
This person weighs at least a thousand kilograms!
Moreover, this is not the scary thing. What makes people doubt his life is that this person is also a powerful martial artist!
It's just a small shop, and there is a martial artist taking care of it...
Who is behind this shop?
"I heard that... there is high-end monster meat for sale here? Don't worry, I understand the rules!"
As he spoke, he threw out a voucher.
So what if he is a Tongmai martial artist, he is the same anyway!
Roshan took the voucher, glanced at it casually, and said with a smile: "It turns out that it was introduced by a regular customer... It's easy to say, easy to say..."
Then, he spread out his big hand like a cattail leaf fan, grabbed it on the chopping board, and then flicked it.
Snapped!
A piece of steaming meat with some bloodshot eyes was thrown in front of Han Yi.
This piece of meat has a clear texture and weighs six or seven pounds. It has no fat or muscle lines at all. You can tell at a glance that it is high-quality meat.
"This is the patrolling black bear, a top-notch beast, with fresh and tender meat, plenty of energy and blood, rich flavor, and neutral attributes. How about it? Are you satisfied?"
Roshan's rich voice sounded.
"Okay, what's your price?"
Han Yi asked tentatively as he looked at the piece of meat in front of him that looked extremely good in appearance.
"Hahaha, the meat here was originally priced at sixty taels of silver per catty, but since it was introduced by a regular customer, it will cost you fifty taels of silver per catty."
‘Fifty taels of silver per catty? ’
Han Yi was shocked. The piece of deer meat he bought on the black market cost him fifteen taels of silver per pound. This time, the price more than tripled.
Although he thought so in his heart, his face remained calm and he said calmly: "Okay!"
He took out a golden ticket, the same one he got last time in the Shadow Temple Pavilion stronghold.
When he came to the market this time, he originally wanted to buy more monster meat resources.
After all, this market only opens twice a month, on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, so you have to buy more.
"The official gold ticket can be exchanged at any bank. The official one hundred tael gold ticket can be exchanged for one tael of gold and ten taels of silver, which is equivalent to a thousand taels of silver. Please bring me twenty kilograms of meat first."
When Han Yi finished speaking and took out a golden ticket, the fat man opposite seemed stunned.
"Okay... it's fun enough. I, 'Fat Zheng', like people like you who are happy!"
After a few breaths, he laughed loudly. While laughing, he cut another large piece of black bear meat and threw it in front of Han Yi.
"This piece plus the piece just now will definitely weigh more than twenty kilograms. The extra piece can be given to you by me, Fatty Zheng..." Fatty Zheng laughed loudly, "The sky is big and the earth is big. Meat is the biggest thing." .....But you have to remember that blood refining warriors should not eat too much or stretch themselves to death, hahahaha..."
Fatty Zheng kept laughing, and even the store was shaking.
Han Yi clasped his fists, carried twenty kilograms of meat on his back in a black cloth bag, and turned around to leave.
All the money he had was spent, but the biggest purpose of coming to the black market had been achieved, so it was better to leave first.
The way back, of course, is to take a boat and then disembark on the other side of the river.
However, after walking out of this commercial shop area and twisting and turning to a small alley, Han Yi suddenly stopped.
He said coldly: "Your Excellency has been following me for so long and has been hiding his head and tail. Why don't you come out?"
At the entrance of the alley, at some point, a man in black appeared.
"Good boy, with your five senses so sharp, you must have eaten a lot of good food..." The man in black chattered and said with a strange smile: "Being able to buy so much meat from Fatty Zheng is obviously very valuable. .....Bring it to me!”
When this person spoke, he was still standing at the end of the alley, but when the last word fell, he suddenly rushed towards Han Yi
He took his right hand out from behind his back and flicked it, and something like a green snake... appeared.
call!
When you get closer, under the moonlight, you can see what kind of venomous snake is here. It is clearly a soft sword coated with poisonous green light.
As for the man in black's left hand, when he approached Han Yi, he quietly spread out some black scale powder. Under the cover of the dark night, these scale powder stuck to Han Yi's body like gangrene attached to the bone.
'good! ! ! ’
The man in black was overjoyed. With his special scale powder, coupled with the green scale sword, with just one blow, the opponent's body would become yin-deficient and hot, and internal fire would rise, causing fatal internal injuries.
This rich man must have a lot of money with him. He happened to be injured at Le Shou Villa before, and this meat can also be used to replenish him.
"Why......"
But for some reason, the man in black suddenly heard a sigh.
The sigh contained mixed emotions, a little helpless, a little regretful, but mostly careless.
And in the heart of the man in black, there was an inexplicable panic, as if he was facing some savage beast.
'It's impossible. I've obviously observed it for a long time. I'm just a blood-refining warrior with no actual combat experience...'
"Die!"
The man in black's soft sword was stretched again, and a green and sinister light emerged from the tip of the sword.
Han Yi just swayed slightly, and dodged it with the swing of his flying swallow legs. Then, he put his five fingers together to grasp, and his two palms reached out to the soft sword in the black-clothed man's hand like lightning.
Whoosh!
The black-clothed man's pupils suddenly locked as the sharp sound of breaking through the air approached rapidly.
His hair stood on end. No matter how hard he tried, he never thought that this man who looked like a rich man could burst out with such terrifying fighting power in an instant.
Moreover, this reaction, this speed...
Could it be...
Not good! ! !
The black-clothed man only felt that from Han Yi's seemingly white fingers, there came a powerful force far beyond imagination, like thunder and lightning, and extremely domineering.
Crack!
As Han Yi completed the achievement of "seizing the white blade with bare hands", the black-clothed man's arms made a crisp sound at that time, and his bones were broken by this great force.
Bang!
Han Yi slightly bent his left leg and pushed his right shoulder. With just one move, the whole body of the man in black instantly became numb, and all the strength in his body relaxed, and he flew more than ten meters into the air.
"You, you are a Tongmai martial artist?!"
Looking at Han Yi who kept approaching him, the man in black stared at Han Yi.
"Why, why..."
Ho ho ho........
The man in black opened his mouth to say something, but the blood that kept pouring out of his mouth made him completely unable to make a sound.
Puff!
With the last mouthful of blood spurting out, the man in black did not make any sound anymore.
"Alas, what a pity..."
Han Yi sighed again and stepped forward to pull down the mask of the man in black.
Under the mask, there was a middle-aged man with a somewhat old face.
"This person looks familiar..."
Han Yi frowned and quickly searched in his mind.
"'Green Scale Sword' Luan Biao?"
Soon, he remembered this person, and it seemed that he had seen the reward for this person on the wanted order issued by the Martial Alliance.
The wanted order said that Luan Biao committed a heinous crime in Le Shou Villa, slaughtering 28 people, young and old, men and women, in Le Shou's family!
"This is..."
Han Yi fumbled around Luan Biao's waist bag.
He found a stack of silver bills from it, all of which were large silver bills of 100 taels. He didn't count them carefully. He had about a dozen of them and quickly stuffed them into his waist bag.
These dozen silver bills temporarily supplemented his money consumption tonight.
In addition, there was a soft sword that fell on the ground, a booklet and, which should be the martial arts practiced by Luan Biao.
Han Yi didn't care and put them in his pocket.
In addition to these, he also found a small and exquisite black box in Luan Biao's arms.
The box was made of metal, and when it was opened, it was a piece of jade that looked like glass.
There are some strange characters and cloud patterns carved on the jasper, and there is a pattern of a beast like a unicorn on the front, with its teeth bared and claws waving, extremely powerful.
This piece of jasper looks different from ordinary items, it is extraordinary.
"This piece of jasper seems to be extremely important to Luan Biao, and I don't know where he got it from..."
Han Yi shook his head. People die for money and birds die for food. Luan Biao is used to killing and robbing. Who would have thought that he would run into such an iron plate.
However, this is also his own fault...
Thinking of this, Han Yi put the jasper into the box, and then put the box into his arms. He quickly sorted out the package, got up and walked out of the market.
Bang!
When he left, he kicked Luan Biao's body into the stinky ditch casually.
He was not going to take Luan Biao's head, although he could exchange it for a reward by taking it to the Wumeng.
This Luan Biao is only in the late stage of blood refining, and the reward is only a hundred or so taels of silver, which is not enough for him to go back and forth.
Moreover, the harvest tonight is already quite satisfactory, why bother to trouble himself......
