When they arrived at the bustling market, the sun was already high in the sky. The streets were filled with the sound of peddlers. There were all kinds of goods on the streets. Yu Xiaoxiao was very curious and liked them very much. She bought this and that.
Such an otherworldly woman with a fairy-like appearance attracted the attention of passers-by. However, when they saw Hatch stopping them from buying this and that like a hothead, they shook their heads and sighed. Fate was unfair. This flower was not as simple as inserting cow dung. It had already fallen into the manure pit.
Hatcher felt uncomfortable and quickly said,""Don't buy this for now. It's just a puppet. What's so good about it? I'll get you a big one when we go back.”He gestured with his hand,"Yes, this big is enough."”
Yu Xiaoxiao smiled and didn't say anything. After picking one that she liked, she said,"Pay up."
Haiqi touched his chest pocket and said with a fake smile,""This... this is really ugly."
He went out for a mission at night and did not have much money on him. He had only left a few silver leaves a long time ago and had not used them. She had spent them all just now. Now, his pocket was empty and his hands were tight.
Everyone started to shout and looked at Hatch with disdain, as if they wanted to skin him alive.
Hai Qi's face turned red and he didn't dare to look at the crowd.
At this moment, the crowd was in an uproar. A young man of eighteen or nineteen years old walked over. He was as thin as a bamboo pole and dressed luxuriously. His pale face had a lewd smile on it. He held an orchid fan in his hand as he gracefully walked over.
Behind him were five burly men with sabers on their waists. Each of them was as strong as an ox. Their eyes were bright and filled with killing intent. The burly men glared at the surroundings. Everyone hurriedly avoided them and left.
They all knew that this person was the Eldest Young Master of the Building Lord of the Blade Casting Tower, Yan Song. He was usually extremely pompous and overbearing. He would often strike up a conversation with any woman who was somewhat beautiful on the street. If the soft approach did not work, he would use force, coercion, and bribery. This caused many young ladies from noble families to be terrified and almost did not dare to go out. This overlord did all kinds of evil, and everyone who saw him avoided him.
" I don't know what they're watching, but it's a lot quieter now." The young man opened his fan and walked over proudly, his gaze casually sweeping around.
It was a huge sight. His eyes were fixed and his body was stiff as if he had been struck by lightning. The folding fan stopped in mid-air for a long time.
"Young Master, Young Master, are you alright?" When the servants saw him like this, they cried out anxiously.
"Excellent, excellent." The young man licked the hada at the corner of his mouth, tidied his clothes, cleared his voice, and then walked in front of Yu Xiaoxiao like a gust of wind. He cupped his hands gracefully and said,"Young lady, I am the Eldest Young Master of Blade Casting Tower's Tower Master, Young Master Yan Song Yan. May I ask your name?”
Hai Qi knew about this person's deeds. He subconsciously touched the long sword on his waist and frowned. He looked at Yan Song as if he was facing a great enemy. He thought that if Yan Song dared to act rashly, he planned to go up and fight with his life.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't even look at Yan Song, completely ignoring his existence as she continued to urge Hai Qi,"What are you doing? Hurry up and pay up.”
"No, I'm not. " No need." The puppet seller's voice was a little shaky." As long as you like it, you can take it."”He didn't dare to take a single cent from her in front of Young Master Yan, afraid that he would suffer endless revenge in the future.
Yan Song 'punched nothing', but he didn't look angry at all. He still said with a smile,""Since Young Lady doesn't want to tell me your name, it doesn't matter. It seems that you like these things very much, so I'll buy them all for you.”As he spoke, he took out a few golden leaves and threw them in front of the boss.
The boss looked at the huge amount and wiped the sweat off his head, not knowing what to do. This money was enough for him to set up his stall for a few years. Although the temptation was great, he did not know if it was a blessing or a curse. He did not know whether to accept it or not. His palm rubbed his pants and made them wet.
Yan Song glared at him.""How can I not pay for something? Am I that kind of person?”
"No, no, no. No, no." The boss replied in horror, but he was secretly anxious.
Yu Xiaoxiao snorted and took out a jade leaf. She placed it in front of the stall and held Hai Qi's hand,""Let's go,"
Yan Song looked at their backs as they left and gritted his teeth. He secretly swore in his heart,'I must get this person. No matter what method I use, and that blockhead, I must make him die a horrible death.'”
"The two of you follow them and check if they have any background and where they are staying. You go back alone and report. Bring a few more powerful people over.”As he spoke, a lewd smile appeared on his face.
The two of them passed through the crowd and arrived at Club No. 11. The old man who came up to them smiled and said,"Yo, God Thief is back. I wonder if the mission has been completed. There are only a few days left.”
Hatch moved his face in front of him and snorted."Why don't you look at who I am? It's God Thief, God Thief! Have you heard of it?" Then, he brought Yu Xiaoxiao into the hall.
The Thief's Hand Guild had almost no customers during the day, and there were only a few workers in the empty hall who were working tiredly. When they saw Yu Xiaoxiao's arrival, they immediately perked up. Hatch casually called out to one of the workers and said,"Call the shopkeeper to my room and tell him that I, God Thief Sea Monster, have returned alive.”
" Pretty impressive," Yu Xiaoxiao teased,""With your skills, you think you can steal a saint? Stealing feces is more like it.”
" Don't laugh at me," Haiqi said unhappily." Although I'm not strong enough, there's no lock that I can't open."”
Yu Xiaoxiao harrumphed coldly. The two of them played around for a while before arriving at Sea Serpent's room. Seeing the messy room, Yu Xiaoxiao was willing to go in no matter what.
" You haven't entered my room yet. Will you die if you come in?" Hatch said seriously.
"This is not a place for humans to live, okay? I'd better stay outside.”Yu Xiaoxiao's heart was beating fast.
"No, you have to come in and take a look. Otherwise, you won't have the chance in the future. Really, come in. It's quite beautiful.”Haiqi threatened and tempted.
" I'm just a girl. It's not convenient," Xiaoxiao said, trying to find an excuse.
"Let me tell you, a married chicken will follow a chicken and a married dog will follow a dog. Although you didn't marry me, you have to listen to me since you're with me.”For the first time, Hatch lost his temper.
Behind him, Hai Qi didn't say anything and dragged him in.
Before the time it would take to finish a cup of tea, the shopkeeper arrived late. When he saw Yu Xiaoxiao, he couldn't help but be startled for a moment, but then his expression returned to its original calm and he smiled calmly.
"It's been a while since we last met, and you've even brought such a handsome girl back.”As he spoke, he sized up Yu Xiaoxiao. He felt that she was unfathomable, and her strength was far above his. It was as if she had no foundation at all. In short, it was extremely strange.
" Please don't laugh at me," Hatch introduced himself and said,""I've already brought the things back. Please take a look.”
The shopkeeper took the second degree box and nodded.""I'll inform Ink Peak Tower as soon as possible and get them to rush over to get it. What about you? What are your plans?”
" Yeah," Ocean Fantasy said," I really can't bear to leave this place.”
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you want to come back, you're always welcome. If you have any difficulties, just let me know. As long as it doesn't go against the adventurer team's principles, I'll definitely help.”The head shopkeeper was honest, he took out a ring and handed it to Ocean Fantasy: "It contains your salary for the past few months. I've kept it for you. Big Brother doesn't have any gifts, so I'll give you this interspatial ring. It'll be convenient to store anything in the future.”
Haiqi received it with both hands, his face full of gratitude.
"You should pack up. Ink Peak Restaurant should be here soon. I'm leaving. I hope you won't disappoint me the next time we meet.”The shopkeeper turned around and shook his head helplessly.
Looking at his slightly hunched back as he left, Haiqi couldn't help but feel a little melancholic. He suddenly remembered the words he had said at the door that day, which still lingered clearly in his ears." In Misty Rain City, it's the end of the third month. The door is closed at dusk. There's no way to stay in spring…"
Did he know that he would leave one day? The head shopkeeper had always regarded him as his younger brother and cared for him in many ways. Now that he was really leaving, he was somewhat reluctant.
The two of them packed up for the entire afternoon. When they left, it was already dusk. The stalls on the streets and alleys gradually dispersed, leaving only a cool breeze on the empty streets. Under the blood-colored sunset, the two of them dragged their long shadows as they walked among the gradually disappearing crowd.
"Hatch, are there any fun places to go at night?”Yu Xiaoxiao asked expectantly.
" There are a lot of fun places," Hatch said one by one."For example, Dream Drunken Restaurant, Seafood Restaurant, Emerald Red Restaurant, and so on…However, the most lively place was the Grassi River. Every night, countless people went there to watch the scenery by the river or drink in the river. It was really enjoyable.”
Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but frown." Other than the seafood restaurant, which is more serious, the rest of the places seem to be places where men go. Where have you been? How many times have you been? Tell me honestly."”
"I don't have time to go to such a place at night. I've already accepted missions."”
"Since it's a place that men can go, I'll go take a look too. Let's go to the Grassi River tonight." Yu Xiaoxiao said doubtfully.”
Ocean Stranger couldn't do anything about it and had to obey her. However, he still felt that something would happen sooner or later. After all, Yan Song was just the beginning. He didn't know if he would take action next.
" Forget it." He thought to himself that once the people from Ink Peak Brothel arrived, he would no longer be afraid of being pestered by others with a backer.
Night fell, and the evening mist enveloped the entire Misty Rain City. It also draped a thick white veil over the verdant river on both sides. Before night fell, the banks of the Grassi River were filled with snacks, and the noise was endless. The lights of the boats in the river were bright, dyeing the river red.
Under the guidance of Hai Qi, the two of them came to the shore and followed the river bank to the most prosperous area. They saw a wooden bridge that led straight to the middle of the river. At the end of the bridge, there were two large pillars supporting a wooden sign with three eye-catching words: " Never Drunk ".
Behind the sign was a large ship, six stories high and incomparably huge. The door was open on the side, like a giant beast lying in the middle of the river, opening its mouth to devour its prey.
The two of them walked to the side of the boat. Two women in their twenties welcomed them from the boat's door. They had enchanting figures and beautiful looks. One of them stepped forward and smiled."Young master Hai, a rare guest…What a rare guest. Come, come, please come in…"
Yu Xiaoxiao frowned and glared at Hai Qi, but she couldn't do it in front of everyone. She could only follow him and see what else he had up his sleeves.
Hai Qi opened the interspatial ring and scanned it with his Soul Consciousness. He found that there were more than 300,000,000 gold leaves, 50,000 silver leaves, and scattered copper leaves inside. In addition, there were also some spirit herbs and healing pills. He didn't have the time to care about this for the time being, so he casually took out a few silver leaves and sent the two women at the door away.
After walking straight in, what greeted his eyes was a large and magnificent restaurant. The decorations were luxurious and dazzling. The tables were filled with cloth rows, and the smell of alcohol assailed his nose. It was crowded inside, and the noise was unbearable.
A woman in her forties walked over from the front desk. She was wearing heavy makeup and waved her handkerchief."Aiyo, isn't this Young Master Hai? Last time, you neglected Sister Qiuhong. Now, she doesn't want to eat or drink and has lost a lot of weight. This time, you can't be so heartless!”
" Aunt Cia, can you stop talking?" Hagrid wanted to cry but had no tears." I brought some people here for a drink today. Please don't hurt me for no reason."”
