Chapter 330: Deception
He fell asleep tiredly, but Zhan Kong still had that strange thing about Dongting Lake in his mind.
He also wanted to know if it was done by the demonized Mo Fan. If so, it would prove that he was not dead yet, but could he keep his sanity? Why did he keep killing the lizard-head monster of Dongting Lake? ?
Having not slept much all night, Zhankong called one of his old subordinates early in the morning, intending to ask him to count a few people and go to the west of the Dongting Lake Plain to check.
"Juntong, Zhang Xiaohou left the military headquarters before dawn. Judging from the things he took away, he seems to be leaving for a long time." The old subordinate said.
"This stupid boy!" Zhan Kong cursed.
"Do you want someone to bring him back? He should not have gone far and left his post without authorization, but he will be charged with a serious crime." The old subordinate said.
"You go to make up a mission statement for him, and then go to my room to stamp my military badge. This kid is a bit stupid, but he is also a good seed." Zhan Kong said.
"Yes."
"Recently there has been a change in the demon wolf clan. I have to deal with it. You send a secret letter to the Biyi military area. Qiu Xin is my senior brother. He will know how to deal with the strange things in Dongting Lake. In addition, if you see Zhang Xiaohou's idiot, let him send it to you. Bring them back, so as not to die outside." Zhan Kong said to his old subordinates.
"Yes, this subordinate will do it now."
...
...
In Biyi City, Zhang Xiaohou, who looked like a hunter in an outdoor outfit, hurriedly grabbed someone and asked where the magic store was.
"Excuse me, does this store sell essences?" Zhang Xiaohou raised the brim of his hat a little, revealing those small eyes.
"Of course, where is this, Biyi City? The closest fortress to the Dongting Lake tribe is simply a city towering outside the demon cave. Whether it is the military or hunters, they are fighting with the Dongting Lake demons all the time. The corpses of the Moon Lizard Skull can circle the earth twice, spirits are rare, but they must be sold every day, and many of them are fresh." The road peddler said vividly.
"Okay, that's good." Zhang Xiaohou nodded.
"Young man, I think you want to buy spirits. In fact, I have a way here. If you want, I can give you a good discount. After all, when you arrive at the store, the price difference will be greatly deducted." Shoe face road dealer Said.
"Really?" Zhang Xiaohou said happily. He didn't expect that he was so lucky, he just caught anyone who set up a magic stall and sold his spirits. As expected of Biyi City, in some small cities, spirits are all auctioned.
"Of course, the main thing is do you have enough money on hand?" said the shoe face dealer.
"Enough, definitely enough, I have nine million on hand..."
"Nine...nine million??" The shoe-faced dealer was stunned for a moment, and then re-sized the honest-looking young man.
"Yes, I originally wanted to buy three, but I heard that the price of ordinary spirits is at least three to four million, and the price of better ones is five million... I only want nine million, and I will buy one The magic equipment was sold to make up so much. I wonder if you can sell me one for 3 million?" Zhang Xiaohou asked.
The shoe face dealer was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, he didn't expect that Zhang Xiaohou, who was plain and honest, had such a huge sum of money on hand!
"Three... three is three, we are a bit of a loser in this business, but seeing that you are so eager to ask for it, I will risk the scolding from above and give you a contact person." The shoe face dealer said.
"Thank you so much. By the way, what should I call you?" Zhang Xiaohou said.
"My name is... uh, you can just call me Daikin."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Dajin, you are really capable. It is not so easy to get three spirits."
"Of course, hahaha!" The shoe face dealer laughed triumphantly.
...
Zhang Xiaohou followed Dajin around and around, and arrived at a magic shop whose brand was covered in dust.
In addition to magic stores and auctions, there are also some private magic shops. Most of the items in these magic shops are obtained by some businessmen who deal with magicians themselves through some special means, and the prices are often cheaper than stores and auctions. Some, many hunters will go to these shops to find treasures, because there are many people who don't know the goods, not to mention the prices of magic shops are often negotiable.
When he was introduced to the magic shop, Daikin with a shoe face laughed and took him to sit in the small hall of the shop.
There were not many people in this shop, and it felt like a deserted place, but there were some magic weapons and tools on display, as well as some standard magic stones.
Da Jin asked Zhang Xiaohou to sit down first, and he had already reached the back hall, discussing with the boss who weighed nearly 200 in the back hall with a wicked smile on his face.
"Sell him those fake essences that cost more than 200,000 yuan. Seeing his stupid appearance, he probably can't tell the real essences. What's more, even if he knows...hehe." Dai Jin whispered Said.
"It's useless to ask someone from the Magic Association to deal with it. Let's say that he didn't preserve it properly and vented the energy of the spirit, and it's none of our business, hahaha!" Said, "In the future, if there are such stupid outsiders, bring them to me."
"No problem, no problem, everyone is so familiar."
After the two conspired together, the fat boss went to get three fake spirits.
Pseudo-essence is actually essence, but because the method of collection is not appropriate, or it is not stored in a container, a lot of energy is lost. This kind of thing has a little effect, but it is incomparable with the real spirit, and the magic store will not sell this kind of thing, so the small shop is another story.
"The things are here. Let us check your money first. We are a small shop. If you cheat us and give us fake money, it will be bad." The fat boss is arrogant. Said to Zhang Xiaohou.
"The money is on this diamond card."
"Drill card? This thing doesn't have a password, and you can withdraw money directly at places like the Magic Association and the Hunter Alliance?" Da Jin's eyes narrowed with a smile.
This kind of diamond card is convenient for magicians to make large transactions without identity binding, which is a bit like a check. This thing is good, it is the most suitable for illegal transactions!
"You take the things, I have to check this card." The plump boss said.
Zhang Xiaohou didn't think much about it, and gave him the drill card for verification, and took the three vessels containing the soul essence to check what he got.
However, as soon as he probed into it with his mind, Zhang Xiaohou immediately realized that something was wrong.
"This spirit is wrong!" Zhang Xiaohou said with a frown.
"What's wrong, it's obvious that you didn't take good care of yourself and vented your energy." The plump boss pretended to be surprised.
"Give me back the diamond card." Zhang Xiaohou handed the three utensils back to them.
"What kind of diamond card, don't you know the trading rules of the store? The buyer first inspects the goods and checks the goods to confirm that there is no problem before paying the money. You didn't even inspect the goods. Why did I take your card?" The fat boss said.
Zhang Xiaohou's face darkened.
I didn't expect them to partner up to lie to me! !
The plump boss and Da Jin both had smirks. An old bird like Da Jin who often mixes with different people can tell at a glance which boys are fledgling young people, but he didn't expect this Touqing is so rich, it's rare to have a big fish.
These days, there are really too few people who are so gullible! ! !
