When Yan Si returned to Zhao Ruize's team, they had already repaired the car and parked it in the shadows nearby.

Yan Si stepped onto the roof of the car and said to the people waiting outside the car for me to come back: "I'm back, and everything is done."

Seeing Yan Si return safely, Jiang Xue smiled and waved to her, saying, "Glad that you're back safely."

Yan Si sat on the roof of the car and said, "But I can't save you in vain. The crystal cores I lost this time must be charged to you. I'm not in a hurry to get them now. I'll come back to get them when you have more money."

Zhao Ruize nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course, we will repay you for your kindness in the future."

Yan Si nodded, took out a pen and paper from his bag and handed it to Zhao Ruize, saying, "How about this, you write me an IOU for a total of twelve intermediate crystal cores and twenty-nine low-level crystal cores. Is that okay?"

Zhao Ruize took the paper and pen from Yan Si and said, "No problem."

Zhao Ruize quickly wrote the IOU and returned it to Yan Si. After receiving it, Yan Si glanced over it and found nothing wrong with it. He tore off the paper and stuffed it into the compartment of his cross-body bag, together with the other two notes from Qiao Song and Bai Hua, and the sun and moon brooch.

Then Zhao Ruize started the car. This time the journey was smooth and he arrived at the black street successfully.

Moreover, on the way, Yan Si also learned some information about the black street through Zhao Ruize's narration.

Rumor has it that the Black Street is the asset of a certain doomsday boss, and it is a base for trading and survival founded by him. Because there is no restriction on the entry and exit of people, there are all kinds of people in it, and people from any organization can enter to trade, or post rewards and accept commissions, and do anything that is beneficial to themselves.

Although there are all kinds of people in the underworld, there are clear rules in the underworld that prohibit killing people in public, which will bring unnecessary chaos to the underworld.

If you refuse to listen and insist on killing someone you dislike, what awaits you is a quick response from the Black Street Enforcement Team who will kill you on the spot.

Of course, if you want to kill people and steal treasures, that's fine, but please make sure you do it in a remote place where you can't cause chaos and can't be observed by the guards.

After listening to Zhao Ruize's story, Yan Si couldn't help but complain in his heart: On the surface, the black street seems very safe, and there is a certain degree of order maintained, but that is only on the surface. In fact, it is still chaotic inside, and it is a dark and evil place.

It seems that I have to be extra careful on this trip to the black street.

The car stopped in front of a small town. Yan Si took a closer look and found that this was a small town she had seen in a travel guide.

Gongfu Ancient Town.

It is located in the south of Ji'ang County. It is not large in area, but it is adjacent to a long river and surrounded by mountains and rivers. It has excellent scenery and is suitable for relaxing in the sun.

A three-mile-long stone street in the ancient town connects the old buildings in the entire town.

Zhan's Courtyard, Dongqin Guild Hall, Chuanli Temple and Zhang's Ancestral Hall...

It used to be a cozy place to relax and cultivate emotions, but now it has become the opposite of a sinister place.

There were layers of roadblocks with spikes in front of the ancient town. When they saw the car was about to drive in, several people in tattered clothes ran out of the ancient town and pushed away the roadblocks in front of them one by one, making way for the car to pass.

There are two gatekeepers armed with heavy machine guns standing ready at the entrance of the ancient town, as if they would shoot without reservation if there is any unusual movement or zombies attacking.

The car drove into the ancient town. Yan Si turned his head on the roof and saw that the men had pushed the roadblock back to its original position.

They are obviously coolies who specialize in pushing and placing roadblocks, but this is the only way they can eat and survive here.

After entering the ancient town, Zhao Ruize and his friends first went to the car dealership to return the car and get back the deposit.

Then he really took Yan Si into the black street. The place they first went to was just a parking place or a place for renting cars. There were not many people here. Because of the rules of the black street, no matter who you are, you cannot stay in a car park for a long time, otherwise you will be killed on the spot.

This is also because they are afraid that someone will steal the car or steal oil.

Yan Si followed Zhao Ruize and followed them into the depths of the ancient town, which was the black street.

As expected, the further we walked in, the more people there were.

Yan Si felt uncomfortable when there were a lot of people around. Although it was much better than before, he still felt a little uncomfortable appearing in a crowd and felt really insecure.

In this regard, Yan Si could only put on the hood of her sweatshirt and take out a pair of pocket sunglasses from her pocket and put them on. This way, she felt a little safer.

As they walked, Zhao Ruize said to Yan Si, "Because the hypnotist's whereabouts in the underworld are elusive and no one has ever seen him, we can only ask the information dealer. If the information dealer can't help, we can only try our luck in the underworld."

Yan Si nodded, indicating that he understood.

On the way to find the intelligence dealer, some people looked at Yan Si and his group with malicious eyes. The evil thoughts emanating from them made Yan Si frown.

The people in this place exude a foul mood all the time.

The crowd was bustling, and many people were squatting on the ground with a small stall in front of them, selling all kinds of things, and also bartering.

Along the way, someone came up to him and asked Zhao Ruize if he was willing to exchange Yan Si and Jiang Xue for a bottle of water and a piece of bread.

But they were all scolded away by Zhao Ruize with a stern face and Zhang Lin with waving fists.

There were also heavily made-up prostitutes who whistled at the men in the team to attract their attention, then cast a seductive glance and said in a tender voice, "Handsome guys, do you need any special service? All you need is a low-level crystal core at a time, or other food is fine."

But Zhao Ruize and others ignored her and just walked away.

Seeing that Yan Si and his group ignored her, the streetwalker was not annoyed, and immediately asked another man if he needed anything.

The man was obviously so blinded by lust that he actually walked into the alley with the woman arm in arm.

When Zhao Ruize saw that someone really went there, he said, "I'm afraid that person is going to die."

Yan Si heard him say this and asked in confusion: "Why do you say that?"

Zhao Ruize said: "That woman is not simple. I'm afraid that man is being set up by a witch."

Yan Si's eyebrows jumped, and then he looked towards the alley where they were going, and indeed he sensed several auras.

She shook her head, retracted her perception, and said, "Lust makes one lose his mind."

These little episodes did not delay any time, and Zhao Ruize quickly took Yan Si to find the intelligence dealer's stall.

I saw a figure wearing a black robe, covering himself tightly, leaning against the stone wall, yawning from time to time, looking very sleepy, with a flag in his arms, on which was written the slogan "know everything".

It looks so unreliable. At first glance, it looks a bit like the charlatan who claimed to be a fortune teller in ancient times...
