Chapter 988 The Woman Tied up in the Stable of the Tavern
"If you go to the Meilan Plains, you have to be careful. I heard that you and Alice have some troubles. Alice's family is not simple on the Meilan Plains." Qiyana reminded.
"Haha." Li Jun sneered disdainfully.
Qiyana said: "Let's find a place to rest tonight, and then go find that guy Gass tomorrow."
Li Jun had no objection, and he and Qiyana both fell to the ground.
A night of silence.
The next day, the two flew all the way to the Meilan Plain in one day.
"The town of Merlin is below, let's go down." Qiyana said.
On the ground, a vast town was built against the mountains. From a glance, there were at least tens of thousands of households.
Coming and going, magicians flew in and out of the town from time to time.
The two landed at the entrance of the town.
Two guards blocked the two men.
"What are you doing in Merlin Town?" one of the bearded guards asked.
"Find someone." Qiyana said.
The bearded man said: "Register first."
The two simply made a registration, and then paid an entrance fee of one gold coin, and then they were allowed to enter Merlin Town.
"Are these people from the Ministry of Magic?" Li Jun asked.
Qiyana said: "Of course not, these people are just generals of the Merlin family."
"General? Then why do you still want to collect gold coins from us?"
"This Merlin Town is already equivalent to the Merlin family's own kingdom. Even the Ministry of Magic can't control it. It's nothing to charge a small entrance fee here." Qiyana said with disdain.
"Why does Meilin Town attract so many magicians here?" Li Jun asked again.
Qiyana said with a strange expression: "Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know?"
"What, what's the problem?" Li Jun touched his nose, looking slightly embarrassed.
"There is a Beauxbatons School of Magic here. Of course there will be many magicians here." Qiyana rolled her eyes and said.
Then he said: "Let's find a hotel to stay in first. Then Gass may have gone to the black market in Merlin Town. The black market will open soon, and we will go find him."
Li Jun nodded and followed Qiyana into the hotel.
…
At around nine o'clock in the evening, with the moon and stars dimming, the two of them walked out of the hotel and headed straight for the black market.
As a characteristic of Merlin Town, the black market has never been controlled by the Ministry of Magic. It is said that there are several wizarding families behind it with full support. The Ministry of Magic does not dare to investigate the black market in depth.
"Is this the black market?" Li Jun and Qiyana appeared outside the black market, and saw masked magicians coming in and out of the black market from time to time.
This black market is more like a commercial market, except that it does not have to pay taxes to the Ministry of Magic. Moreover, the black market has always liked to ignore the various rules and regulations of the Ministry of Magic.
Over time, illegal activities in the black market have increased.
The most important reason why these magicians wear masks is because they are worried that their identities will be revealed and they will be implicated.
After all, the black market is a disgraceful place. Going in and out of the black market means that you have engaged in some illegal activities. If it triggers an investigation by the Ministry of Magic, it is a big mistake.
"Well, let's go." Qiyana bought two masks at the entrance of the black market, handed one to Li Jun, and walked into the black market first.
This was the last place where Geis might appear, so the two naturally split up and investigated an area each.
After Li Jun and Qiyana separated, they released their spiritual thoughts and began to search the black market.
Li Jun didn't know Gass, and the mission book Alter gave him only had Gass's sketch from ten years ago. Ten years have passed, Gass's appearance has changed, and whether he can find it depends entirely on God's will. Li Jun also Didn't have high hopes.
Half an hour passed quickly.
Li Jun still found nothing and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"I don't know where that guy is hiding." Li Jun said secretly.
As a last resort, Li Jun mobilized his source to figure out Geis's whereabouts.
Unfortunately, there seemed to be a wall blocking him, and no matter how hard he calculated, he could not break this wall.
"Since I entered this world, when I calculated, it would be impossible to calculate Geis' current whereabouts if there was this wall in front of me." Li Jun thought to himself.
He sighed helplessly and put away his roots.
That's when Li Jun calculated Guis's whereabouts.
Deep in the black market, in a tavern called Traveler's Return.
There are several stables in the backyard of the tavern.
At this time, a man about fifty years old, wearing a windbreaker, slightly bald, with a gray beard, walked into the stable in the corner holding a paper bag.
"Look what I brought you. Hehe." The old man said with a sinister smile on his face.
In the corner of the stable, a man covered in horse dung was tied with an iron chain.
I saw that the man was unkempt and his body was covered with feces. He had been locked up here for who knows how many days, but he still had a touch of heroic spirit between his brows.
The old man walked up to the man and opened the paper package, only to see dried centipedes and scorpions wrapped in the paper package.
"These things are specially prepared for you. As long as you eat one at will, you will become immortal immediately if you keep it. What do you think, do you want to try it?" The old man said with a sinister smile.
"No!" The person yelled. Judging from the voice, it should be a woman.
"No? That's not up to you. You Beauxbatons bitches have been chasing me for several days. I finally caught one of you. You want me to let you go? Haha!"
"My senior sister will never let you go?" the woman shouted.
"Senior sister? Is that bitch Vivian?" The old man curled his lips and said, "Your senior sister is not here. If she were to come, I will keep her tied to you!"
"Yeah?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's voice suddenly sounded behind the old man.
The old man was shocked and turned around immediately.
At the door of the stable, he saw five women wearing wizard robes from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, standing at the door, staring at him coldly.
The old man immediately laughed, "Hey, I didn't expect you to find me so quickly."
Having said this, the old man's gaze fell sharply on the leading woman, "Vivian, I just mentioned you. I didn't expect you to show up so soon. Not bad."
…
boom!
In the market, Li Jun, who was searching for Gas's whereabouts with his spiritual consciousness, suddenly heard a loud noise.
Looking around, I saw a mushroom cloud rising in the black market, and the flames reached into the sky, sweeping across the sky, lighting up the night like day.
"what happened?"
Li Jun looked slightly frightened, and disappeared from the place as soon as his body moved.
"What a courage!"
"who?"
"How dare you fight in the black market!"
"Law enforcement team, attack!"
Shouts of surprise rang out from every corner of the black market.
Then, dozens of black-robed wizards were seen flying toward the fire one after another on broomsticks.
