This time, the tavern was completely quiet. People avoided Qianye's gaze, lowered their heads and began to deal with their drinks.
The old man behind the bar smiled wryly and said, "Hey, kid, there's no need to do such a hard job, right? His nose is still very useful."
Qianye had already sat down in front of the bar, calmly said: "But his brain is not very easy to use."
"Are you here just to provoke?"
Qianye said unmoved: "I'm here to do business, but if someone provokes me, then the guy's nose just now is the answer I will give." He narrowed his eyes and said pointedly: "I I have no interest in the grievances between those hairy guys and vampires, as long as they don't get in my way."
The wrinkles on the old man's face were almost all squeezed together, and he muttered something, instead of continuing on this topic, he gave Qianye a glass of wine.
Qianye picked up the wine glass and took a shallow sip. The wine is extraordinarily spicy, and several flavors are mixed together, forming an indescribable feeling. But after staying on the tip of the tongue for a while, a strange sweetness began to appear in the mouth.
Qianye slightly raised the wine glass, shook it lightly, and watched the clear and pure wine form a ripple on the wall of the glass. It is such a completely colorless liquid, but it will break down into several different flavors when it enters the mouth. He stared quietly at the curved cup body, and the blurred shadows of most of the tavern guests behind him flashed in front of his eyes one by one.
This tavern is more dangerous than it looks on the surface. After the wretched man yelled just now, half of the people, including the old man behind the bar, reflected the force of darkness!
These people have either completely degenerated to the dark side, or have deep ties to the dark race. Of course, there is still a very small group, that is the blood hunters, they completely hunt and kill the dark races for a living, and in order to gain more power, they do not hesitate to embrace the dark force.
Such a place actually exists in Dark Blood City, and it seems to have a long history.
Qianye had heard of such places before, but this was the first time he experienced them. It is actually a stronghold of dark forces underground in Dark Blood City, a gray area between black and white, and many things that cannot be found from the pure Dawn and Eternal Night camp can be obtained here.
Here is an underground trading point between humans and dark races.
In Dark Blood City, there is not only one such trading point, some of them are larger in scale than here, and they trade more things. However, no matter in the Dark Blood City, the upper echelon of the Expeditionary Force, or even the Empire, they turned a blind eye to the existence of such trading points.
On the one hand, the transaction volume is very limited, most of which are all kinds of intelligence, both from human race and from dark race. In comparison, there is still more information flowing from the side of the dark race. In this way, these trading points have become an important source and transmission channel for human intelligence. In an environment like the Evernight Continent, many times they even become one of the most important channels. On the other hand, some strategic materials that are very important to mankind can also be obtained through such channels, but under the iron fist control of the empire, the strategic materials that flow out from these channels are quite limited.
The dark race also needs a large amount of strategic materials, such as black crystal, red crystal iron and black crystal iron, the more the quantity, the better. Since they can't get it from these semi-public trading points, they will go through another channel, for example: Wu Zhengnan. This is also the real reason why the upper echelons of the empire cannot tolerate taboo transactions. Because that is the channel completely hidden in the darkness, the number of black crystals flowing out from there is not controlled at all, and is only driven by the purest economic interests. Over time, quantitative changes will turn into qualitative changes.
Qianye shook the blurry figures on the cup thoroughly, then raised his head and drank a big gulp of wine, letting the hot and spicy wine burn all the way to his heart and lungs. At this moment, the golden blood energy in his body that had been circling around the heart had just calmed down a little.
Others present would not know that what that wretched man said was true. As soon as Qianye stepped here, the golden blood energy reacted extremely strongly. When the man got closer, he began to swim out along the blood veins uncontrollably, emitting an aura of origin force.
Qianye urged Liming's original force to emit a mist-like crimson original force light just to cover up, and the little golden light that the man inhaled was the breath of golden blood energy. Even Qianye didn't expect that the uncontrolled golden blood energy would be so poisonous to the owner of the dark force, even if it was just a little bit of breath, it would almost instinctively disintegrate the flesh and plunder the power.
The moment the golden blood energy came into contact with the man's force, Qianye sensed some feedback from the force, and finally understood why both sides reacted so strongly. The man's dark force attribute turned out to be in the werewolf area.
When Qianye finished his glass of wine, the old man at the bar seemed to sense something, raised his head and said, "The person you are waiting for has arrived, go in! He is behind that door."
Qianye followed the direction pointed by the old man, walked into an inconspicuous small door by the side of the bar, went all the way, and saw a small room at the end of the passage. The door was not closed, and a thin middle-aged man was sitting inside. His face was slightly majestic, and there was a distinct shadow between his brows.
Qianye walked in, sat down in front of the middle-aged man, and said, "I didn't expect to see a person with the blood of a demon. What should I call you?"
"Jorgen. You can also call me Hei Xiao, this name is more widely known."
"Mr. Heixiao, I heard that you can give me the necessary help?"
"It depends on what you need. But before we talk about more in-depth topics, can I take a look at your token?" Hei Xiao spread his hands and said, "You know, if we are not careful enough in our business If not, I don’t know how many times I’ve died a long time ago.”
Qianye took a simple jade ring from his middle finger, put it on the table, and pushed it towards Hei Xiao.
Jorgen picked it up carefully, inputting a bit of force, and two threads as thin as gossamer lighted up inside the ring, and a pattern emerged on the surface, an eagle head with crossed swords in its mouth. He breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the ring back to Qianye, and said, "Sure enough, it's the Far East Wei family, the most senior deacon token of the prison. Okay, I understand, and I will provide you with any service within my ability."
Qianye quietly took the ring and put it back on his finger. It was sent by Wei Potian before he left Qin Lu, and there were several addresses and information including this tavern. Now Qianye understands that even if this trading point is not affiliated with the Wei family, at least the Wei family has enough influence in it.
"I want to check some deals, deals with the dark race." Qianye said.
Qianye's words obviously made Jorgen a little nervous. He moved his hands on the table with his fingers crossed, and asked, "Who is it related to? What kind of transaction?"
"Heiliu City, the Seventh Division of the Expeditionary Army. Forbidden transaction."
"Forbidden transactions!" Jorgen gasped slightly, and said slowly: "You should be very clear who are able to carry out forbidden transactions. Do you really want to continue?"
"Yes." Qianye said calmly, but firmly.
"It's really a coincidence. I happened to know the latest one." Jorgen took out a piece of paper, quickly drew on it, quickly outlined a map, marked a certain location, and wrote a date. He handed it over to Qianye, lit the paper on the fire, and watched it burn to ashes.
Qianye had already written down all the details, and then took out a piece of black crystal and handed it over. Jorgen put it in his pocket unceremoniously and said, "Good luck."
Under Jorgen's guidance, Qianye quietly left through the back door and disappeared into the night.
In the next few days, Qianye lived very peacefully, except for cultivation every day, he hardly went anywhere until the news from the Hunter's Guild came over.
Jorgen provided the exact location and time of the transaction, while the hunter guild's information was relatively trivial and vague, but Qianye thus knew some of Wu Zhengnan's history.
Wu Zhengnan's Seventh Division has been secretly dealing with the dark race for many years. The deal with Qi Yue that Qianye encountered was not the beginning, but a plan to open up a new channel. Wu Zhengnan's main trading items here are not materials, equipment, or information that are of great significance to the human race, but blood clan products that are equivalent to top luxury goods. For Wu Zhengnan and his allies, although luxury goods did not promote the combat power of the human race, the profit of the latter was much higher than that of the former.
After comparing the information from both sides, Qianye confirmed the authenticity of the next taboo transaction, which was not far from Heiliu City, about 200 kilometers away.
After thinking about it for a while, Qianye prepared to go over there to see what the content of this taboo transaction would be.
Wei Potian and Qianye agreed that for a period of one month, he would bring people to the Eternal Night Continent to remove Wu Zhengnan from his position as a teacher. As for how to achieve this goal, Wei Shizi naturally does not need to worry about it. The Wei family will assign him a counselor who is good at this, and someone will plan the plan on his behalf. Wei Potian only needs to nod symbolically.
So the result is that Qianye is still vague about how he should cooperate with the Wei family's actions. But one thing is always right, that is to get as much evidence as possible about Wu Zhengnan's taboo dealings, the more such evidence there is, the more he will no longer want to escape from impeachment.
In the early morning of the next day, Qianye boarded the airship bound for Heiliu City. At noon, Qianye left Heiliu City with a big backpack on his back and entered the wilderness.
Not long after Qianye left, Heiliu City suddenly became noisy and noisy. A whole team of fully armed soldiers rushed to the gate of the city, and after questioning the guards carefully but couldn't get the point, the team of soldiers turned around angrily.
In Heiliu City, Qi Sicheng was sitting upright in his study, listening to the soldiers' reports with an extremely ugly expression. When he heard that no one was caught, he couldn't help being furious, scolded the two non-commissioned officers who reported back, and then drove them all out.
After the study room was cleaned up, Qi Sicheng stood up, looked at the map spread out on the table, and pondered for a long time. In fact, the information he received was very vague, and it was expected that he would not be able to catch anyone.
"Who is so interested in our transaction? However, this kind of thing can also be meddled casually? Be careful not to break your claws!"
