The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

Su Libai walked around excitedly, and everything about the Blue and White Club opened his eyes.

Hanging around in front of several merchants selling weapons, "It's too expensive." Su Libai muttered and sighed, and finally left reluctantly.

The cheers and shouts at the back of the venue were louder and louder, Su Libai felt itchy, left the commercial area in front, and came to the back of the venue again.

Surrounded by layers of people around the big stage, they couldn't see the situation on the stage clearly. Su Libai wanted to see but couldn't, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

The people in front stood on tiptoe, Su Libai stretched his neck not wanting to be like a duck, wandered around for a while, and then had to give up.

When he turned around, he bumped into the person behind him.

"Ouch." The person who was hit yelled exaggeratedly: "It hurts!"

Su Libai was startled, thinking that he didn't use much force, he opened his mouth to apologize, but the man said viciously: "Do you have eyes?"

This person was about the same height as Su Libai, dressed in a gorgeous red robe, and looked unusual.

Thinking about it, it's true, just now I said that people who come here are either rich or noble, and I secretly thought that I can't afford to be offended.Su Libai laughed "heh", "Sorry, my eyes don't grow on the back of my head."

"you!"

The man stepped forward and glared at Su Libai, and the four strong men standing behind him also stared fiercely.Since this person deliberately found fault, Su Libai didn't want to pester him, so he took a step away and walked away quickly.

Feeling that the person behind him was still staring at him, Su Libai was not happy.

After walking a few steps, I realized that I just subconsciously followed others, and now I entered a dark corridor on both sides, and there was a louder shout than outside.

Thinking of Gu Mian's advice, Su Libai stopped hesitantly. Gu Mian said that there are some places you can't go to, and I don't know if there are so-called "places you can't go" ahead.While hesitating, the voice of that person just now came from behind, Su Libai had no choice but to walk forward.

Walking out of the corridor, there is a small room inside, a large table like the outside, the difference is that there are no layers of people around here.

And the place next to the wall is full of wooden cages, each cage is taller than a person, some cages have something in them, and some are empty.

All spectators are on the second floor, with separate seats set up to have a better viewing angle and viewing experience.If outside is a rich man's game, here is a richer man's game.

The fighting on the big platform was very fierce, and no one paid attention to Su Libai.Su Libai took a few steps to the side, found a corner to hide himself, and waited for the man to walk by.

After waiting for a while, the man was still missing. Su Libai felt strange, but his eyes were attracted by the cage beside him.

There was someone in the cage—at first Su Libai didn’t recognize it was a person, he only saw a high pile of weeds mixed with mottled and dirty cloth strips, he thought it was an empty cage, but suddenly The ground team hurt a pair of eyes.

The human eyes, black and white, looked directly at Su Libai.Su Libai suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, the man moved suddenly, struggling to get close to Su Libai, shouting a number in his mouth: "Nine, nine!"

Nine?

Su Libai was puzzled, but the people in the cage became more and more anxious. They looked at the stage, then at Su Libai, and still shouted: "Nine, nine!"

The match on the big stage was over, or it would be more appropriate to say that it was a one-sided bloody fight. One side raised its arms and shouted, while the other side was covered in blood and fell down with a whimper. Can't hear anything.

Three people wearing blue and white masks walked out beside Su Libai, opened the cage, and dragged out the people inside.

The man kept struggling, but he was slapped so hard that his head was turned away.

The two dragged the man onto the platform, poured a glass of water on his face, and wiped it with a cloth, revealing the pure and beautiful face of the man—the snow-white skin, the vivid eyes full of panic and uneasiness. A beautiful young woman.

Facing the girl, Su Libai immediately understood that what she said was not the number nine, but "help me".

The leading man wearing a blue and white mask waved at Su Libai, gesturing him to come on stage.

Su Libai went to the stage in a daze, and the man stood beside him and raised his voice: "The prize for this round is a girl from the Kagana tribe outside the Great Wall, and the thug in the square is the young man next to me. Who is willing to challenge and take away this girl?" Where's the girl?"

"Coax", people smiled, seemed to have no interest, and seemed to be deliberating.Su Libai was stunned, looking at the members of the Blue and White Society around him, wondering if he had misunderstood something.

"I come!"

One exclaimed excitedly.The voice sounded familiar, Su Libai looked up, and met the eyes of a young man in red clothes.

"Amimi, come on!" The young man stared at Su Libai, showing an expression of victory, and following his order, a burly man nearly twice the size of Su Libai rushed onto the stage.

In the blink of an eye, Su Libai understood that he had been calculated.

"Then please tell the judges to place your bets! Those who bet on this boy put their bets in the blue box, and those who bet on this Amimi, please vote in the red box! Let us see who can take away this girl!"

The red box fills up quickly.

Su Libai kept looking at the boy in red with a cold face, but the boy just smiled, as if seeing an interesting game.

"Help me." The girl moaned, Su Libai looked at her, fell into her black and white eyes, and saw his own reflection.

"Heh." Su Libai raised his head and laughed, like a laugh, took out a copper plate from his body, flicked it casually, and threw it into the blue frame.Hooking his hands at the strong man named Amimi, Su Libai said, "Come on..."

The second floor was silent for a moment, and then more enthusiastic voices broke out.

"Amimi, kill him!" Su Libai heard the boy say this.

I have been detained in the Tsing Yi Gate for many years. Yixiao and the senior brother who are in charge of the sect always say how terrible and terrifying the outside world is. Su Libai always thinks it is to scare him, and it cannot be taken seriously, but it turns out that there are people who really hold inexplicable Maliciousness seeks pleasure from the pain of others.

Amimi faced each other with two fists, and made a "Pumba" sound in demonstration, squinting his eyes, and let out a low moan from his throat, like a beast ready to go.

"Game start!"

Amimi struck out fiercely, without hesitation, Su Libai drew out his sword.

--split line--

In the teahouse, Chen Ke and Xu Qingfeng were still sitting silently.

The people at the next table only talked about the Devil's Cult for a while, then changed the subject, sat for a while and left.

Xu Qingfeng understood what those people were talking about in his heart, and he was meditating, but Chen Ke kept observing Xu Qingfeng's expression.

"Eldest son!"

Zuo Ming suddenly found the teahouse and interrupted Xu Qingfeng's meditation.

Looking away as if nothing had happened, Chen Ke motioned Zuo Ming to sit down and talk.

Carefully sitting down next to the stool, Zuo Ming lowered his voice and said, "My lord, I found the golden bell flower."

found it?Xu Qingfeng stared at Zuo Ming with wide eyes, but Zuo Ming looked at Chen Ke seriously, waiting for Chen Ke's instructions.

Chen Ke didn't show a happy expression, nor did he respond immediately, looking at Zuo Ming, he seemed to be trying to tell the truth, "Oh?"

This reaction made Zuo Ming's heart tremble, Xu Qingfeng also clenched his fists subconsciously, then relaxed, and took the initiative to hold Chen Ke's hand happily: "Go and see."

His eyes fell on the overlapping hands of the two, Chen Ke responded and stood up.

Feeling empty palms, Xu Qingfeng suddenly panicked, looked up at Zuo Ming, Zuo Ming hesitated and shook his head.Xu Qingfeng had no choice but to relax, and quickly followed Chen Ke who was walking ahead.

Zuo Ming asked about the golden bell flower from a medicine merchant in the Western Regions. When the medicine merchant saw Zuo Ming go and return, his eyes lit up, his brown-red beard was raised, and he smiled and took out a brocade with dark red lines. box, said in unproficient Chinese: "This is what you want."

This pharmacist has a big nose, small eyes, and a goatee. He looks a little funny. He wears a tall hat with complicated patterns, and there are all kinds of weird things in his booth. , can't help but make people doubt the contents of the brocade box.

Xu Qingfeng would not be surprised if there was a piece of mushroom lying in it. I heard that a few ethnic groups in the far northwest like to eat mushrooms very much.

Businessmen are used to observing words and demeanor, regardless of race or gender, and this person, too, laughed a few times, and opened the brocade box on his own initiative: "You guys, take a look."

Inside the brocade box lay a small red flower, the petals were threaded like a shriveled chrysanthemum, but even more sparse, with dead black threads in the stamen.What occupies most of the brocade box is the root of the flower, and the strands are extremely long and thin.

"Hundreds of Flowers and Plants" records: "The golden bell flower is red in color, the corolla is thin and small, generally [-] to [-] petals, and the roots are extremely long, which can be three to five meters." It is exactly the same as that depicted in the brocade box.

"This is a flower in the desert of the Western Regions. It's very hard to find! It's said that there are devils!" The businessman's eyes widened and he said seriously.

Chen Ke thought it was funny, and asked him: "Then you are not afraid of the devil?"

"Hey——" the businessman waved his hands and laughed, rubbing his thumb and index finger together, "Money belongs to the devil."

"How did this flower come from?"

"Brought by the warriors."

"If it's fake..."

"No, no!" The businessman put his hands on his chest, "God testifies, this is a real flower."

"how much is it?"

The businessman grinned, looked at Chen Ke, and stretched out five fingers. "Fifty gold..."

"You are a lion!" Xu Qingfeng said anxiously.Fifty gold, you can buy a small city!

The businessman was unmoved, and five fingers were about to hit Xu Qingfeng's face.

The shops that Xu Qingfeng asked before have never been measured in gold no matter how expensive they are, but the commodity transactions of the Blue and White Club are not restricted by commercial laws, as long as they are willing to buy and sell.

"Okay." Chen Ke nodded to Zuo Ming to pay. Zuo Ming didn't expect it to be so expensive. He took out the money bag and was about to count it, but Chen Ke took the money bag and threw it to the merchant. "Here are thirty gold coins." Beans, and pick up the rest at Fulai Inn at noon tomorrow."

It was indeed the lion who opened his mouth at the beginning, but he did not expect that Chen Ke could really take out the gold. The businessman was so excited that his beard trembled tremblingly.It didn't matter if it was fifty or thirty, he hurriedly took the gold, smiling from ear to ear.

Taking the brocade box and hugging it in his arms, Xu Qingfeng has not recovered, the golden bell flower is now in his hands?It didn't take as much effort as I imagined, and I thought it would take a lot of twists and turns.

Chen Ke turned around calmly, his expression seemed a little cold, "Let's go, it's time to go back."
