Dark Harbor in November.
There was already a faint lively atmosphere.
Because the Mankai Festival is coming.
What is Mankai Festival? This is related to the departure day of Dark Port.
On December 1st every year, all ships that have obtained expedition qualifications will choose to set sail on this day.
And a week before setting sail, the captains of these ships will bring out the best harvest of the past year, gather together, and start a week-long grand transaction at the largest free trade market in the Dark Harbor Deck Commercial District, and In the last two days of the week, there is an auction.
Needless to say, the ones that can be sent to the auction are naturally the best among the best.
Why do we do this every year? There are so many reasons, such as ship repairs, maintenance and adding some new things.
Another example is the precarious sailing life. Money is for enjoyment. Before the final departure, there is inevitably a grand carnival.
In short, if things continue like this, one week before the sailing day, the day when the grand trade fair begins, will be designated as the Wanhai Festival.
It was the biggest festival in Dark Port, and people would start preparing early, half a month in advance.
"Actually, after the collapse of previous civilizations, many festivals gradually disappeared with the inheritance." Tang Long was walking on the busiest street in the Dark Harbor business district, even though he was only wearing simple casual clothes, he also wore a Although he was wearing a mask, his handsome features and extraordinary temperament still attracted the attention of many girls.
All these glances were ignored by Tang Long, and his fiery eyes only stayed on the side of Bi An's face.
Although today the other side is only wearing the most common type of clothes worn by the girls of the Dark Port, a slightly tight top, some like bloomers, and a kind of light trousers like a skirt.
She covered her whole face with a hat with a veil, but she was the other side, wasn't she
"So, the Wanhai Festival is not a traditional festival?" Biangan was a little careless, and then his eyes were attracted by the shell decorations sold in a small shop on the street.
She stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and gently fiddled with the small decoration.
The mechanism of the small decoration was touched, making a pleasant sound of waves. Then the shell slowly opened, and a mermaid-like dummy appeared in the middle. The expression was slightly sad and slightly shy. He held his hands and began. singing.
I am sailing
I am sailing
Home again 'cross the sea.
I am sailing stormy waters.
To be near you.
To be free.
I am flying
"Sounds good." Bi'an held his chin and looked at the small decoration quietly, his eyes under the veil were a little intoxicated, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this scene, Tang Long gestured slightly to the people following him, and someone came up and asked directly: "Boss, how much does this thing cost?"
The boss was about to answer when Bian An stood up and shook his head slightly: "No need." Then he walked forward on his own, curiously looking at the busy shops around him and the ones being decorated for the Wanhai Festival. people.
"Why not?" Tang Long followed Bian An. He was used to Bian An's wandering thoughts and didn't feel embarrassed.
"Where did we talk just now?" Bian'an did not answer Tang Long's question, but brought up the previous topic.
"The Wanhai Festival is not a traditional festival. There are only two traditional festivals from pre-civilizations that are still preserved in the world today. One is the Spring Festival of ancient China in Dongshengzhou, and the other is Christmas in Guangmingzhou." Tang Long on the other side has sufficient knowledge. With his patience, he didn't care whether the other side would answer his questions, but he would definitely answer the questions that the other side asked him.
"Well, that's it."
"Well, that's it. Even if traditional festivals are about to disappear, people always need a reason to release and revel. There will always be many new festivals. Otherwise, how can life continue?" Tang Long said slightly Somewhat emotional.
At this time, the bodyguard following Tang Long quietly came forward and whispered in Tang Long's ear: "Master Long, we just received the news and have determined Zero's location. Do you want to see him now?"
Tang Long looked at the other side with slight hesitation. It was rare that the other side was interested in walking around, and he didn't mind being with him all the way.
"Go ahead, I'll just go shopping by myself." Bi'an had already heard what the bodyguard said, turned around and said calmly to Tang Long.
"Wait until I come back." Tang Long took off his mask and smiled gently at the other side.
This smile happened to be seen by a girl around, and her heartbeat accelerated a little, envying the other side beside Tang Long.
Yes, this young man is so handsome, with a warm and sunny smile, but what really makes people envious is the deep affection in his eyes, which seems to melt the coldest iceberg.
Unfortunately, Bi'an just nodded lightly, turned around and walked towards the front of the business district, with only two bodyguards following him from a distance.
Tang Long looked at Bian's back with some nostalgia for a while, then turned around and left following the bodyguard who reported the news.
But when he passed the small store, he saw the shell toy again, and couldn't help but stop and said to the people around him: "Buy it."
**
"A toy costs eight Black Sea coins, that's crazy." Han Xing looked at the back of the masked boy passing by, his eyes filled with disbelief, and his tone was sour and envious.
Life in the Port of Darkness was too difficult. Less than a week after he arrived, he was already penniless and even pawned the scabbard of his sword.
I wonder if the old man would kill him if he knew this
But what can be done? On the first day he entered the Port of Darkness, he just glanced at a woman on the street twice and got into big trouble.
Thinking of this, Han Xing scratched his hair in frustration.
Fortunately, he thought that the woman from Dark Harbor was full of enthusiasm. After just a few glances, he showed a catering smile.
Then, he stepped forward and took his arm.
At that time, the Korean star was very proud. Was he so handsome and charming
As a result, the woman insisted on dragging her to a nearby shop for a drink.
In fact, there is no problem with drinking two drinks, and Korean stars are not people who cannot drink.
Maybe after two drinks, he can win the favor of a mature lady and realize his eighteen-year dream of transforming from a boy to a man.
As a result, just as he was about to enter the shop where he was drinking, a voice from nowhere came to his ears: "A drink of ten Black Sea coins, can you afford it?"
Han Xing was shocked. When he entered the city, he had just exchanged the coins. All the coins he had were only exchanged for five Black Sea coins. Of course he knew how valuable the Black Sea coins were
Therefore, he couldn't help but asked the enthusiastic woman next to him: "Ten Black Sea coins for a glass of wine?"
"Little brother, you look so noble, why do you still care about ten Black Sea coins?" The woman's eyes revealed all kinds of charm, and the smile on her lips was charming.
Han Xing couldn't bear to give up, took out his arm from the woman's arms, and said, "I don't have that much money, can we change places?"
With just such a sentence, the woman's face changed instantly, and then several men gathered around her. Then Han Xing received a profound lesson in the Port of Darkness.
The lesson is that if you can't win, you will be blackmailed. No one will pay attention to you, let alone rely on the rules to get any fairness.
The five Black Sea coins he had on him were gone away from him because of this inexplicable incident.
However, in the Port of Darkness, it is a place where even sleeping on the street requires money.
At that time, he heard the same voice coming into his ears again: "Go to the pawn shop. Your sword can be pawned for some money. If you can't pawn it, you can just pawn it off the scabbard. Inlaid with it are seven precious stones." Grade-level crystallization, right?”
Who is guiding him? Han Xing still doesn’t know.
But in desperation, he had no choice but to do it.
The result was quite smooth. After the scabbard was pawned, seven Black Sea coins were obtained.
After messing around for a few days, I finally used these Black Sea coins to find a place to stay, and bought some useful information along the way.
Then I decided to make a living by playing in the ring first.
Now that he has arrived at the Port of Darkness, he must seize the opportunity the old man said.
What he didn't expect was that in the youth ring, his fight went very smoothly.
Now that he has won three consecutive games, as long as he wins four more games, he will be eligible to enter the Lord of Darkness Arena in a few days.
Maybe, the scabbard can be retrieved within the agreed time
Han Xing was carefree, a smile appeared on his face as he thought about it, and he forgot that the boy just now easily took out eight Black Sea coins to buy a toy.
He came here to shine, seize the opportunity, break through in one fell swoop, and become the perfect Purple Moon Warrior.

"Hahaha. No, I didn't mean to laugh at you, little Tangtang." Dingling covered her mouth and served today's breakfast.
Hot crab meat porridge, fragrant crab roe thin-skinned buns, two plates of cold side dishes, and a pot of milk produced by an unknown animal.
Tang Ling had no appetite for such a wonderful breakfast. He glared at Ding Ling, which made Ding Dong, who was cleaning the table next to him, couldn't help but let out a "Pfft" sound, and then burst into laughter.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Tangtang, haha, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh, haha." Dingdong smiled so exaggeratedly that he couldn't help but roll around on the shell sofa.
There is no difference from the glutinous rice balls rolling in the bowl.
Boss Huang coughed twice, put down the newspaper in his hand, and said seriously: "Ding-ding, ding-dong, you can't laugh at Tang Ling. This is a very impolite thing."
As he said that, he looked at Tang Ling pretending to be kind: "Eat, don't forget, you have an hour to go out today, eat enough, ah, hahaha"
"Boss, why are you laughing? I'd better not go out, right?" Tang Ling was full of anger, looked at Boss Huang with a half-smile, and said through gritted teeth.
"No, no, no, you have to go out and relax." Boss Huang immediately put away his smile.
"No." Tang Ling wiped his face harshly.
Boss Huang suddenly stood up and ran upstairs.
A minute later, he threw a mask to Tang Ling and showed a flattering smile: "Shall we go?"
