Chapter 100 Jazz
the next day.
Aaron went out in the morning and had a great lunch at a discounted price at the Witch House.
In the afternoon, I went to see a circus performance and had nothing to do all day, which was very in line with the image of a rich boy in the eyes of the landlady and the people around him.
In the evening, he went to visit Mr. Clark Das.
"Put it on."
Clark Das handed over a black hooded robe. On top of the supple black robe, there was a black iron mask that could cover the position above the mouth.
"This is a gathering of hidden identities. The participants may include secret believers and evil believers, or even secret agents of the Bureau of Investigation. It is not safe, and everything needs to be careful."
He warned again.
"I'm still a little confident in my skills." Aaron patted the holster and saber on his waist.
"It's better not to have a confrontation... Unless the other party does it first, you will be listed as persona non grata next time."
Clark Das personally drove the carriage to the Evil Bridge area.
This is on the edge of the mother river, and as soon as you look up, you can see the steel bridge spanning east and west.
The surrounding buildings are all in the shape of shacks. The two families share a wall, and a large number of houses of different heights are crowded next to each other. All kinds of small alleys extend in all directions, and homeless people and beggars are not uncommon.
Obviously, this is a slum area, where the patrol police invest the least effort.
There are even rumors that if those black dogs don't gather more than ten people and wear firearms, they will not dare to enter such a place to inspect.
'The flow of people is complicated, the terrain is convenient, it is convenient to conceal the identity and escape at any time! ’
Aaron looked at his surroundings and nodded secretly.
Clark Das parked the carriage just outside the Evel Bridge area, and the two entered the area on foot, walking through the narrow, stench-filled alleys, and finally stopped in front of a gray and inconspicuous building.
Clark stepped forward and knocked on the hoop nailed to the wooden door.
Snapped!
A small window above the wooden door was pulled open, revealing a pair of vigilant eyes.
"it's me!"
Clark Das, wearing a gray robe and a white tin mask, said in a hoarse voice, "I also brought a new friend."
I don't know how the person behind the wooden door confirmed it. After a few seconds, the wooden door opened, revealing a hunchbacked man behind him.
His back was hunched and deformed, and the eyes and nose on his face were so out of tune that they seemed to have been made out of mud.
If you go out at night, it will definitely scare people to death.
Aaron murmured in his heart, took the lantern handed over by the other party, and went down the corridor with Clark Das.
Before long, a basement appeared in his eyes, surrounded by iron candlesticks with candles burning on them.
In the center of the basement, there is a round table surrounded by more than 20 chairs, some of which are already seated.
They all hide their bodies, and Aaron can only judge men and women from some shapes, which may not be accurate.
After hanging the lantern on the hook on the wall, he sat down with Clark Das and waited quietly.
During this period, he also received a lot of scrutiny.
I don't know how long it took, but when more than half of the chairs were filled with people, a white-robed man with a silver candlestick walked into the secret room.
"The party has begun, and I am the host - Sir!"
The white-robed man said gracefully, placed the silver candlestick on the round table, took out a metal vial from his arms, and dipped the liquid inside into the flame drop by drop.
A blurred aroma suddenly spread to the surroundings, and the shadows on the walls became a little blurry.
Aaron looked at Clark Das's unchanged posture, understood that this should be the beginning of the show, and also sat still.
At the same time, he smelled a strange and strong fragrance.
Under the effect of this incense, the spirituality in his body became slightly excited.
"I named this incense 'Rolanda', it can reconcile our spirit and flesh, making it easier for us to enter into meditation, for ordinary people, it makes it easier for them to be hypnotized, and the probability of falling into a dream Big increase..."
Mr. 'Sir''s magnetic voice came: "This is also the commodity I brought today, a potion is 5 pounds! I brought a total of ten!"
'It seems that this 'Sir' is a pharmacist? ’
Aaron thought to himself.
At this time, the 'Sir' looked at Aaron: "Our Mr. Knowledge has also brought a new friend, um, according to the rules, you can give yourself a code name, and make a deal first, say you demand, or asking for shopping items, issuing commissions…”
Aaron stood up, glanced around, and said in a disguised voice: "'The Rabbit Sword', I call it the Rabbit Sword!"
This is the code name he had thought of before.
"I don't have anything to sell, but I want to buy some things, such as knowledge about you Sisui, such as... some materials full of spirituality, and the request is biased towards 'Yao'. I can pay with gold pounds, or exchange knowledge for it. "
After speaking, he sat down.
According to Clark, after everyone has spoken, if there is an intention, a note will be passed over, and then they will go to a more private room to discuss the transaction.
This is also for the sake of secrecy, so Aaron did not take out the secret pass and human skin carelessly, but prepared to show it to real buyers, which would be more confidential.
After Aaron, it was Clark Das's turn.
He coughed and chuckled: "I am still the same as before, infinitely acquiring hidden historical knowledge and items rich in historical flavor..."
This seems to be related to the 'secret' path, but it is unknown whether it is a ritual requirement or other special needs.
After Clark, a petite woman began to speak: "I... I need a spell that can expel the spirit of resentment..."
Aaron watched indifferently and found that most of these purchases were some spiritual materials, spells, secret transmissions, and so on.
As for the sale, it is even more varied, mixed with some extremely complicated and weird things, such as the bone meal of a three-year-old baby, the corpse that has been soaked in honey, etc., no matter how you look at it, it is an evil transaction that should be cracked down by the authorities.
However, some of them are quite normal.
For example, a strong man named 'Beast' claimed that he had obtained a treasure map, which might involve some ancient ruins.
But according to Clark, such explorations are often extremely dangerous.
Aaron estimated that Clark definitely didn't want to go out with the expedition, and he preferred to wait until the other party's exploration was successful and buy items of interest at the party.
