"Dare you ask senior Gao's name?"

Yu Ci was curious about the so-called magnetism. He was observing the surrounding environment. His reaction was a little slow. He waited for a while before turning back. At this time, Wanquan was already in a state of realization. He smiled hurriedly and said, "It's the junior who is being abrupt. I want to talk about Beihuang." In this hellish place, there are only a few people walking around with real names. Most of them use nicknames, and people only remember nicknames...

Yu Ci laughed dumbly and did not explain. He was too cautious. It was meaningless for him to say the name again, so he asked: "What about your..."

Wan Quan said with a smile: "This junior, 'Wan Quan', is both a real name and a nickname. It means nothing more than being diligent in doing things and being considerate in business."

"Oh, what kind of business do you do?"

"This junior is just a matchmaker. He is taken care of by the seniors from all walks of life and makes a living. I just gave the seniors directions, which is my job...Oh, I really ruined my reputation."

Yu Ci's eyes lit up: "Then how about you give me a line?"

Wanquan patted his chest and said, "Senior, I will not tell you, but I will also save the signboard. I will lead the way. I guarantee that I will find a good shop. I will never be a profiteer who deceives customers like this. Of course, I will also lead the way." Please bear with me, senior, if this gets out today, Xiao Wan will really become a laughing stock in the dental shop."

Seeing him bowing and smiling pleasantly, Yu Ci also smiled: "It would be nice to get a good price, but I'm talking about another business."

Wan Quan was startled, but he responded quickly: "Uh, I would like to ask, senior, do you want to buy or sell? Entrust? Guarantee? Or..."

"Show me a job."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and drew a talisman in the void. The twists and turns were very complicated, and he was dazzled by everything. At the end, he was even more confused: "Senior, please clarify?"

Yu Ci smiled: "Is there any business like summoning spirits and catching ghosts?"

Wan Quan was shocked.

But soon, Yu Ci was surprised.

Wan Quan used his skills and took Yu Ci to the ground two hundred feet deep under the Black Sand City. Only then did Yu Ci realize that the bottom of Heisha City had been hollowed out almost completely, forming a large empty nest. Inside was a dense network of tunnels with insufficient light, but they were networked horizontally and vertically, extending in all directions.

According to Wan Quan, places like Black Sand City are daily invaded by the "black storm" unique to the Northern Wilderness. The environment is difficult and resources are scarce. Only low-level monks live here, and monks with a little status live here. , are mainly concentrated in the ten underground cities opened deep underground in the Northern Wasteland, and the Yin Cave City that the two of them are going to now is one of them.

However, Wanquan also said: "As for the Yin Cave City, living in it is a hundred times more comfortable than Black Sand City, but if you really want to find a job, there are more opportunities to go to the ground like Black Sand City. Generally speaking, among the top ten cities in the Northern Wasteland, There is no one to control it, but it might fall into the hands of those at the lobby. The risk is too high."

"Tangkou?"

Wan Quan responded: "In the Northern Wilderness, except for the two big cities in the north, which are influenced by the Northern Demon Sect, and the sects are relatively powerful, the rest of the local forces are all large and small. Here. , Sects may not have a hall, but ten of them are covered by sects of all sizes. Hey, it’s different from other places.”

Yu Ci nodded slowly. He understood clearly that the forces in Beihuang were somewhat similar to the underworld in the mortal world. Regardless of whether the force is strong or weak, there may be some problems with the centripetal force... Of course, the specific situation needs further observation.

As expected, Wan Quan was a tooth man who took advantage of his position. Even when he was leading the way for Yu Ci, he was not idle. Instead, he released a little thing called the "No-gnawing Yin Rat" and burrowed into the depths of the tunnel first. , saying that he wanted to find out the news from his own dental shop first.

"The Hongyafang where this junior is located, to be honest, is nothing in this industry of tooth people, but the information is quite well-informed. If there is anything suitable, I will gather it together first, and then use my little tooth to send it back. Senior, it will save you a lot of effort if you take a look at it.”

Xiao Ya is the rodent-less vaginal rat. It looks like an ordinary gray-haired rat, but its protruding mouth is a funny rectangular shape with no teeth visible. Yu Ci looked at the place where the Wugnai Yin Mouse disappeared for a while, and then said with a smile: "Little thing, does he know how to escape?"

Wan Quan was startled and extended a thumbs up to Yu Ci: "Senior has good eyesight and can't do anything other than bite the devil, but he is born with the ability to escape through the earth and is extremely fast underground, which can be used to convey messages. Junior It only costs 700 dragon palace shells, which is expensive, but it’s worth it.”

"It's really fast..."

In a blink of an eye, he was ten miles away. If it were him flying in the sky, it would be nothing more than that.

"Hey? Xiao Wan! Either it's better to come early than to come by chance..."

A voice suddenly sounded, and Yu Ci frowned. There was no such person in his sensing range. When searching for the sound wave, I saw a hollow round mouth at the corner of the passage. The sound wave was emitted from this place.

Wan Quan is not surprised: "It's Laoguai, I have a guest with me today."

"Don't worry, just follow the old rules and bring some back."

Wanquan responded and led Yu Ci into another fork in the road. Without waiting for Yu Ci to ask, he smiled and said: "This is a checkpoint set up by Dazhuitang of Yin Cave City. You don't have to worry about it when going from Heisha City to Yin Cave City. But if you go north along another road, You have to pay the security money. Of course, if you don’t pay, I can’t stop you with my body, but if your description is recorded through the agency, Dazhuitang will not let you off easily.”

The two of them passed through several forked roads along the way. According to Wanquan, some tunnels even lead to tens of thousands of miles away, but such paths are usually controlled by the entrance to the lobby, and even forbidden laws are placed inside. , when passing, the safety money to be paid will naturally be heavier.

As he said that, Wan Quan began to speak and sing: "Don't look at the countless paths in the world. Monks escape to the earth and fly into the sky. You can't control other places. Beihuang will take peace of mind."

Yu Ci was stunned when he heard this, then laughed again: "I thought Beihuang was a world of loose cultivators, and it has always been lawless."

"Senior is actually right. Beihuang is indeed a world of casual cultivators, and it is indeed lawless."

Wan Quan nodded in agreement: "All halls are gathered by casual cultivators. As long as there is a hall behind you, or your own cultivation is strong, no one will care about anything you do in Beihuang. As for the other... …”

He smiled and changed the subject: "The old crook just now is greedy for petty gains, but he is not a bad person. He might offend some powerful person by doing this. No matter how strict the cat is, there are still risks, let alone going back. The boss still wanted to investigate, so he asked for some drinks, and I brought them to him... Hey, I also hope that he will come back and take care of me a few more times."

Yu Ci was thoughtful and nodded slowly. Seeing this, Wan Quan sighed secretly. His words were called "reassuring words", which meant he said heartfelt words to show goodwill to others. Close the distance between the two parties and eliminate the other party's alertness.

So far, everything has gone smoothly, but the confusion in his heart is getting more and more serious... It seems that this person has just arrived in Beihuang. Is there something wrong with Mr. Hong?

"Guests go slowly and come to take care of you in the future."

The store clerk put on a smile and sent Yu Ci and Wanquan out. After joining the crowd outside the store, Yu Ci held the three black-gold-like silkworm chrysalis in his hands, turning them around, and put them away with satisfaction.

These three black gold silkworm chrysalis are exactly what he will need for a while. Their original value is at least 40% of the beast bone demon pill he hunted for two years, but Wanquan, this tooth man, is quite capable. After several back-and-forth transactions, he was able to forcefully suppress half of the money, leaving him with much more money.

The Northern Wasteland has poor resources, but developed commerce and trade. Many large merchants in the south have branches here, and the ten major underground cities are also densely populated with chambers of commerce. According to Yu Ci's original plan, he was going to consign it to Sui Xin Pavilion, but Wan Quan stopped it with his professional vision:

"Suixin Pavilion's business in Yinkuo City is so overcrowded by the Maritime Chamber of Commerce that it can no longer continue. It is said that it will move north to Qianyi City in the next few days. Therefore, it will not pay attention to the purchase of raw materials. , but the handling of accumulated goods is relatively generous; on the contrary, when the Maritime Chamber of Commerce is expanding, the gap in raw materials is large, but external sales are not as good as Suixin Pavilion, and the price difference is very large. If the seniors do not mind, How about letting me, Xiao Wan, do my best?"

Yu Ci had no choice but to let him try. I didn't expect that this young-looking monk really had some skills. He switched his beast bone demon elixir, Ruyiqian from Suixin Pavilion, Dragon Palace Shell from the Maritime Chamber of Commerce, and other messy things back and forth several times, and he actually got it. Done. I can't help but lament that there are specialties in the art industry, and the ancients sincerely did not deceive me.

He sighed here, and everything seemed perfect but he was actually jumping right in front of his eyes.

For this seemingly friendly person, all the beast bone demon pills he hunted were of high quality. Only the dozen ghost monkey sharp teeth did not need to be used to make anything. When they were taken out, they were equivalent to the best craftsmanship. With a little more care and a skilled craftsman, it would be enough to make a magic weapon worthy of years of sacrifice. If I could take back Hongyafang...

He shook his head and dismissed the unrealistic thoughts, but became more cautious.

Ghost monkey... that is a ferocious beast that lives in groups. In the Sky Rift Valley, ordinary Huandan monks would take a detour when they see it!

Whether Mr. Hong recognizes the wrong person or not, this time I'm afraid it will be a tragic situation!

Just as he was thinking about it, Yu Ci motioned for him to stretch out his hand, and then slapped a handful of things into his palm. Wanquan glanced at it, his scalp numb: wasn't this the sharp tooth of the ghost monkey that he was drooling just now?

And this one has at least fifteen pieces, and it's almost impossible to hold it together - this is a middle-grade magic weapon!

"The right is worth the commission."

Yu Ci smiled slightly: "Brother Wan does things that make people feel like they are ironing their clothes, and I will bother you later."

"Senior is too polite, this... actually won't be of much use."

Wan Quan had long thought that this senior had a big temper, and now that it was confirmed once again, he felt strange. But the fifteen shadow monkey sharp teeth really made it difficult for him to refuse. When he was struggling, he heard someone say again:

"Thanks to little brother Wan's ability, I took over the job as soon as I got here. But I am not familiar with the place, so don't get lost and just want to delay little brother Wan's business for two days. Please be a helper." How about returning to the guide?"

"This..."

Yu Ci didn't give him a chance to refuse, she held his five fingers inward and sealed the deal: "This means that one thing doesn't bother two masters. Wan will be able to worry less, right?"
