Surprised and terrified psychology expanded rapidly like a contagious virus. The eyes of the entire dock were quietly focused on Ashin, and the busy atmosphere on the dock was gradually swallowed by a chill with a sense of horror.
Ashin, covered in blood, suddenly appeared here, making the people on the dock extremely uneasy.
And Ashin himself also felt baffled, he knew that he must look miserable after repeated fierce battles. But the environment outside the gate is so treacherous, most of the guests who finally came here through many hardships are probably miserable, right
If that's the case, the people inside the gate should be used to people with tragic appearances, right? Then why do they have such a strong sense of fear of themselves
A Xin opened his hands somewhat dissatisfied, and walked a few steps forward and said loudly, "What? Is my appearance so terrible?"
Someone in the crowd courageously replied: "Your whole body is blood! How many people killed will make this look like this..."
"Ha!" Ashin touched his bloody chest and walked to the crowd: "Don't worry, this is not human blood!"
When a sturdy sailor saw the blood-stained Asin approaching, he walked back in shock and said, "This guest, please wait a moment! Someone has already gone to notify the manager of the terminal!"
Ashin frowned and asked, "Why do you notify the manager? I don't know him."
"This guest, please don't be impatient." An old man with white beard and hair wearing thick glasses said to Ashin from a distance on the other side of the crowd. He walked over at a slow pace, and the onlookers voluntarily gave way to him.
After the old man used his spectacles, he looked at Ashin with his somewhat muddy eyes, and then asked: "This guest, the gods and ghosts are rigorously defrauding and robbing them. So when someone sees a suspicious person, they will immediately attack us. These managers appointed by the host report. This is why everyone sees your messy clothes, blood all over, and a strong murderous spirit on your body, so you think..." He stopped here, but he said. The meaning is already obvious, he thinks Ashin is likely to be a gangster who kills and overpowers.
(Asshole...)
A Xin uttered an angry roar in his heart. If the roar was heard by those present, he would be frightened and fled immediately!
The gods and ghosts black market obviously raises the savage monsters like Madden's House outside, to mutilate and rob business travelers who want to enter here, but stipulates that all visitors shall not cheat and rob them on the territory of the gods and ghosts black market.
What a hypocritical and shameless double standard is to only set fire to yourself and not to allow others to light up? !
But Ashin did not show any unhappiness on the surface, he could only endure the anger in his heart now, and before he achieved the purpose of this trip, he must not openly cause any situation in the black market of ghosts and ghosts.
"Are you pretending to be stupid with me, or are you making a bad joke?" Axin stared at his blindfolded eyes, pretending to be angry and said, "Do you know how much there is in the forest outside? Difficult ghosts? Chasing the dead vines, the flat-haired beasts that are neither people nor birds, and the two fierce monsters of Pella and Turner! You think I walked all the way to enjoy the flowers. Do you know how much it took me to come here? Thank God for not being eaten as char siu, and I also pay attention to the neat and tidy clothes?!"
The old man was startled, then showed a look of surprise, and asked in disbelief, "This guest... Could it be that... you entered here from the gate in the forest?"
Ashin's eyebrows trembled: "Yeah! Where else could it be?"
As soon as Axin's voice fell, it was as if a pot was boiling on the dock, "Wow!" The voices burst into flames!
"It turns out that I came here from the outside forest! This is really rare, so rare!"
"I came in under Turner's eyelids, no wonder the whole body was blood...it's so miserable!"
"It's not easy to be here alive..."
"Should have a banquet for him to celebrate..."
Ashin asked unclearly, "What's so strange about this? Don't all the people who come here come from the forest? There should have been before me too—"
The old man suddenly grabbed Ashin's arm, and a certain deep meaning emerged under his muddy eyes, beckoning Ashin not to continue speaking.
"Ha ha ha... It seems that this guest is here for the first time in our ghostly black market!" The old man smiled and waved to the people around him: "Let's go away, everyone do their own thing!" He said to Axin In an inviting gesture, he said, "This guest, please come with me."
Ashin followed the old man to a secluded place on the pier. The old man turned around and said to Ashin, "Did you just want to say that a group of people came in from the forest outside before you?"
Axin nodded: "Yeah, is the forest outside these days strange? Obviously there should have been a group of people like me before this. Why are these people making such a fuss?"
The old man chuckled and shook his head: "Hehehe! Young man, don't you know? There are many ways to enter the black market of ghosts and ghosts, but most people don't choose to take the forest road. Because that is equivalent to It is using the most cruel method to commit suicide, and the success rate is very guaranteed!"
Ashin straightened his neck unexpectedly: "Ah?! There are many ways to enter the black market of ghosts and ghosts?!"
The old man said: "Yeah, let’s not talk about the Gods and Ghosts Qihang Faer, which will be reached for a thousand years. Almost all business groups in the supernatural world have cooperative relations with the Gods and Ghosts Black Market. These business groups will establish their own space jumping magic gates. , Is linked with the ghost black market. Therefore, most businessmen and visitors do not have to go through the dangerous forest outside! As for those who want to enter the ghost black market from the outer forest, they basically have no financial resources to pay for Faeu. The price of the same number; or the scale is too small to be recognized by the ghosts and black market, so they are not qualified to build Might and Magic; there are some stingy guys who want to save the cost of the first two and decided to take a risk."
After hearing the old man's words, Axin was stunned for a long time, and then said in a daze, "Huh...? Oh...no wonder these people were so surprised after seeing me. It turns out that other people who passed through here were basically transmitted by space magic? Are people from the forest so rare?"
A Xin froze suddenly, and suddenly felt a hint of heaviness and throbbing pain in his heart.
(Isn’t the answer obvious? There are those two vicious watchdogs outside, and people who enter from the forest like me will be treated as rare animals... This shows that... almost none of the people who walked that way escaped the clutches of the madman’s family. !)
(And Evelyn, why would she take this risk to walk the forest road? The Medici family must have this kind of portal? Yes! I almost forgot, her family has been ungrateful adopted son I control it, even if I have it, I can’t use it.)
The old man’s richly experienced gaze seemed to see through Ashin. He smiled and said, "Ha ha ha... It seems that you have figured out the answer to the question. Indeed, the person who came in from the forest road has not appeared for a long time. ."
Recalling the huge amount of treasures looted by the mad demon family, Ashin lowered his head and asked depressedly: "Why are there so many people who know that it is so dangerous, so many people are going to walk the dead end that is all monsters?"
The setting sun dyed the old man's beard golden, and his turbid eyes flashed with ridicule of vicissitudes of life: "The people of the world, Xixi, are all because of profit; the people of the world are shouting, because of the profit! This is an unchanging behavior and truth throughout the ages. The ghost black market is a place where big money is spent, so for many small businessmen, it is a treasure place where it is easy for people to make big money. People flock in at risk, but it is the phoenix and feathers who really enter the gate. They want to make money. Big money, instead of entering the forest where there are ogres who deprive them of wealth and life... this is really ironic!"
Ashin couldn't help but sighed: "Oh! For the money, is it worth losing your entire family and life?"
The old man Nu Nu said: "This question is to ask themselves! Maybe it is worth it for those who chase wealth!"
Ashin suddenly thought of something, blinked, and thought in his heart: (That's not right, this old man just stopped me from asking a question, and then he almost made me off the question in a few words! If I come in from the forest, the people here will see you. As surprised as a ghost, why did no one among them mention that they entered the city gate earlier than me, and they were also Evelyn who entered from the forest? Didn’t they show up here at all? Did they meet someone else? What’s the situation? Or... they were...)
A Xin's alert heart suddenly raised his head, and the chaotic and impulsive murderous aura suddenly chilled the surrounding temperature.
The old man felt Ashin’s hostility, and he smiled without panic: “Axin, why do you want to face an old man so murderously?”
Ashin stunned suddenly: "How do you know my name?!"
The old man watched the setting sun gradually sinking into the water in the distance: "A few hours ago, a group of people in disorderly clothes and panicked expressions entered the gate, but no one on the pier knew that they came in from the forest." The old man smiled. Somewhat mysterious: "Because I used my own identity as a terminal manager for the first time, I immediately picked up these people and safely sent them to the opposite side of the ghost black market!"
A Xin thought in a daze: (While distracting me, then telling me that he helped the group of rescued people. Is this old man a friend or an enemy?) He didn't know for a while. , What kind of attitude should I use next to treat this elusive old man in front of me
The old man showed a somewhat lonely smile: "Don’t be offended by young people, I don’t have a lot of family as an old man, so I will inevitably say a few words when I meet someone who can talk, but I didn’t mean to divert your attention. Oh."
When he said that, Ashin took two more steps back guard, and he could see through Ashin's thoughts so easily. This old man is too keen! (End of this chapter)
