Chapter 18 Night Sleep Gathering

On the second day, early in the morning.

They left the 708 island town, crossed the mountain range that towered like a spine in the middle of the island, and went to the other side of the island.

There was a vast black forest of giant trees, which extended all the way to the border beach.

The location of the Yemian gathering this time was in this black forest of giant trees.

"Master, how did you know the location of the gathering?" Wang Yu asked the puzzled question while walking in the forest.

Sun Chengshan casually threw a chopping knife that he had bought temporarily to Wang Yu to open the way in the forest.

"I am an old member of their gathering, look."

He took out a bamboo stick that looked like it was used for praying to gods and Buddhas from his trouser pocket. It was green all over and the material was as round as jade.

"Here, this is it, the bamboo stick given by Yemian to pass the message. Do you see the words on it?" Sun Chengshan pointed at the bamboo stick and said.

Wang Yu looked at it and saw that there was indeed a line of neat handwriting on the bamboo stick, which was a light white.

[On July 5, 772 of the Blue Star Calendar, a sleepover gathering will be held in the forest of Island 708. The detailed coordinates are as follows]

After Sun Chengshan's explanation, Wang Yu finally understood the so-called message-passing bamboo sticks.

This world does not have signal communication equipment such as mobile phones, but there is a magical bamboo called Heart Bamboo.

It can be made into bamboo sticks like the ones in Sun Chengshan's hand.

There is also a bamboo heart inside it. If you write on it with water, all bamboo sticks made of the same bamboo within 300 kilometers will show the same words at the same time.

"If you write with Yingcao powder, the best transmission distance can reach more than 1,000 kilometers. These things, you haven't seen them before, but in our cultivation world, they are no longer rare." Sun Chengshan added with insight.

This is obviously their most commonly used means of communication. Although it is not as convenient as mobile phones, it looks quite magical.

"I'll introduce you this time. You'll pay 100 Broken Crystal Coins for an entrance fee and receive a bamboo stick. If there's a gathering near you in the future, you'll receive their message."

Wang Yu nodded.

The way this Yemian gathering attracts new customers is very simple, basically through the introduction of old members.

If there's no old member to introduce new members, ordinary people can't get in even if they know about the existence of such a gathering.

"In addition, if you want to sell something valuable in a hurry, you can also find someone from Yemian during the gathering. They don't care about the origin of the things. As long as they pass the tasting, they will give a suitable price to buy them away."

Sun Chengshan was meticulous and told Wang Yu all the details of the rules and regulations of this gathering along the way.

The black forest of giant trees on the back of the island has been developed to a very limited extent.

When the town was built, it was estimated that only the sources of danger in this area were preliminarily checked, and now there are few people.

Near the beach, a forest suddenly became empty, and was temporarily surrounded by a row of wooden stakes.

Large torches were inserted into the stakes, and the light guided people walking through the forest from afar.

Many figures wearing black robes, hoods on their heads, and black masks on their faces were swaying around like ghosts, and their identities looked quite mysterious.

In the distance, two figures approached this side.

They were also wearing a simple coat and robe, and a mask on their faces.

"Remember, don't reveal your identity in the gathering, and don't try to spy on others. This is the biggest taboo inside."

"Yes, Master."

The voice was familiar, and the two people were Sun Chengshan and Wang Yu.

Through the mask, the eyes fell on the black-robed people.

These people were members of Yemian.

For the arrival of Wang Yu and the others, these black-robed people who were patrolling outside did not pay much attention.

Just approached the entrance surrounded by the fence.

There were also several black-robed men guarding there. Sun Chengshan skillfully took out the message bamboo stick and handed over a star ticket with a face value of 100 as the entrance fee.

One of the black-robed men took the message bamboo stick and nodded after confirming that it was from Yemian.

"This is the newcomer I brought." Sun Chengshan said in a deep voice, and his familiar voice changed slightly, becoming a little hoarse and dull, like an old man.

Seeing the other black-robed man looking over, Wang Yu immediately took out a star ticket and handed it over.

The black-robed man didn't say anything, but just took the star ticket, and then took out a brand new message bamboo stick and handed it to Wang Yu.

Then he made way and let the two of them in.

In the open space inside, there were many large tents built temporarily.

There were also some large tree stumps left over from being chopped, and a large bonfire in the middle, burning with boiling flames, and sparks splashing into the air. This bonfire was particularly eye-catching.

There were also several large trucks with cargo parked around, also guarded by the people who slept at night.

Outside the tent, on the tree stumps, and beside the bonfire, many outsiders who participated in the gathering had gathered, at least a hundred of them.

Some of them looked around, while others lowered their heads and thought about something.

In addition, there were people in the tent.

These tents are the focus of today, responsible for the trading of goods.

"I have said everything I should say. Next, we will go our separate ways and gather here after buying things." Sun Chengshan said.

Soon the two separated.

Wang Yu planned to take a look first, so he entered a tent at random.

When he opened the door curtain, a warm feeling came.

There were several braziers placed in the tent, and the heat source came from these braziers.

It must be said that the atmosphere of this gathering was well set off by the members of Yemian, dispelling a lot of the chill coming from the sea, making people feel comfortable.

Wooden tables were neatly placed in the tent, divided into several rows.

There was a member of Yemian in charge of each large wooden table.

Various objects were placed on the wooden tables.

It is worth mentioning that the aura of these Yemian members is very strong, and the sense of oppression is even more full at close range, which makes people dare not mess around here.

There were only three or five outsiders in the tent where he was. They were looking at the items on the table and the tasting information and prices marked next to the items.

"I want this."

Suddenly, a masked man who had been standing there for a long time pointed to an ancient and heavy short-handled sickle on the table in front of him and said.

"Eight thousand eight hundred." The Yemian member said indifferently, a male voice.

The masked man was also quite straightforward. He took out a stack of star tickets and put them on the table. Eight thousand eight hundred not a cent less.

As early as when the gathering appeared, there was a clear rule that the price of the items sold here was not allowed to be bargained.

It could only be the price set by the Yemian people, not a cent less.

After the Yemian member counted the money and nodded, he took the short-handled sickle in the long box, turned around and left without saying a word, without stopping.

Because of the mask, he couldn't see the buyer's face, but he thought he should still like this weapon.

I believe it is not an ordinary item, after all, it is worth 8,800 broken crystal coins.

Scanning the objects on several tables, Wang Yu found that this tent was mostly filled with various cold weapons, with prices ranging from high to low.

The price ranged from a few hundred to tens of thousands, with a huge difference, and there was no comparison.

Wang Yu practiced boxing, and was not very interested in the weapons of these warriors, nor was it a target choice in his purchase list this time.

After a quick look, he changed to another tent.

This time he found his target.
