“hey, young man, i heard you’re looking for lightning scorpions?”
at the hunter association, an old man with a messy beard and a wine pot in his hand approached them with a smile and took the initiative to greet them.
“oh? you have a clue?” bai wushang asked indifferently.
he was wearing a loose black windbreaker and a grimacing mask that he had bought in star iron town.
not only did it cover his figure and appearance, even his voice had changed. it had become deep and low, and no one could recognize him.
people dressed like him could be found everywhere in the hall.
hunter, mercenary-related professions, they were born to walk on the tip of the blade.
some people were used to being cautious, while others had a lot of enemies and couldn’t see the light at all.
the sloppy old man seemed to be smiling yet not smiling. he took a gulp of hard liquor and said in a low voice, ” ” 10000 gold coins. i guarantee you’ll be satisfied! ”
bai wushang’s eyes, which were hidden under the mask, stared deeply at his face.
she repeatedly wondered if he was a liar or if he had something real in his stomach.
however, his red cheeks didn’t look reliable.
after thinking for a while, bai wushang did not hold back and asked, ” “how should i believe you?”
“ha, pretty boy, go around and ask around.”
the disheveled old man laughed. ” i, third brother hu, have never cheated or cheated. i’ve always run my business with a small capital and with integrity. ”
” besides, it’s just 10000 gold coins. what’s so good about it? it’s just money to buy some wine. ”
bai wushang observed his expression and couldn’t see anything.
in terms of experience, even ten of him would not be enough.
he silently calculated in his heart.
now that he had explored more than half of the information market, there were definitely clues. there were at least three places where the lightning scorpion might appear.
however, two of them were too far away, and one was too dangerous.
bai wushang had yet to make a decision, so he could only be a candidate.
he seemed to have noticed the ghost face man’s hesitation.
the sloppy old man continued to press on with his victory, moving him with reason and emotion as he jabbered on and on about a lot of things.
in general, he was a slightly famous intelligence chief in longjing city and had a lot of information that no one knew and no one cared about.
with 10,000 gold coins, if he couldn’t buy it, he would suffer a loss. if he couldn’t buy it, he would be fooled. he could just kill a few monsters and recover his health.
if he wasn’t old, his pet would have lost its teeth and could no longer fight.
he wouldn’t do this. it wasn’t as satisfying as fighting.
as he spoke, he summoned his pet, a snow-spotted mastiff that was a little dispirited and out of shape.
it indirectly proved that his words were credible.
bai wushang didn’t agree immediately.
he aimed at the disheveled old man’s position and continued to search for information in the hall.
after a long time, he returned to the old man and said indifferently, ” “5000 gold coins, are you selling?”
third bro hu laughed out loud. ” pretty boy, who haggles like you? ”
“i can’t earn any money from this!”
after a series of haggling, the deal was finally settled at 7500 gold.
bai wushang knew that the worst case scenario would be that this person was a liar.
however, to him, earning money wasn’t as difficult as it was for a spiritualist.
three or four of the slightly valuable matured ones would be enough to make up for the loss.
he was just testing the waters and getting to the bottom of it.
however, it wasn’t like he didn’t take any protective measures.
before he paid the gold coins, bai wushang pressed his palm on something and waved it in front of the old man.
third brother hu’s expression changed slightly, and his soul power surged forcefully, suppressing the smell of alcohol on his face.
“and you are?” he was bewildered and looked at bai wushang repeatedly.
” don’t ask. i’m just warning you. don’t play tricks on me. ”
bai wushang quickly took back the things in his hand and said in a cold voice, ”
“otherwise, you should consider the consequences yourself.”
third brother hu’s expression changed again, and then he reacted and softened his tone, ”
” ha ... what are you saying? i’m really fair and just ... ”
bai wushang didn’t say anything more and motioned for him to quickly hand over the information.
the disheveled old man no longer spoke eloquently and instead started to talk about trivial things.
he quickly wiped his hands and tied the wine pot to his waist.
then, he took out a stack of documents from his storage ring and chose a few pages.
after some slight tailoring, it was officially handed over to the ghost-faced man.
bai wushang quickly scanned through the ten lines at a glance.
all the information had detailed dates, and the descriptions were either concise or complicated.
however, the three locations he had obtained earlier were all included and even more detailed.
to a certain extent, this confirmed the authenticity of the information and that it was not to be fooled.
“ghostman pit?”
very quickly, bai wushang’s attention fell on the last page.
third brother hu smiled again, with a hint of flattery. he introduced, ”
“this place was quite famous five or six years ago.”
” when it was first excavated, a large number of rare ores were dug out. hundreds and thousands of masters rushed over, hoping to make a fortune. ”
” i won’t go into the process. smart people quit while they’re ahead. they can still get some benefits. ”
” more people died from fighting and killing each other. ”
” however, no matter what, this place is no longer as prosperous as it used to be. it’s getting more and more desolate, and the danger level has dropped significantly. ”
” because too many people came here to mine. almost the entire underground was excavated empty. ”
” don’t even think about making big money now. i still have some money left, but i need to try my luck ... ”
combining the written materials, third brother hu added his own understanding and opinions.
bai wushang listened quietly, carefully memorizing and analyzing the information.
the item that he had intentionally shown to the other party was naturally the ten heroes token that mu tianxing had given him.
he didn’t show the front, only the back, which was the side with the shanhai academy’s emblem.
he was certain that longjing city wasn’t too far away from the endless sand region. therefore, he definitely had sufficient knowledge of the mountain sea, one of the four great famed academies.
moreover, the other party was proficient in intelligence gathering.
even if ordinary people didn’t understand it, bai wushang didn’t believe that he couldn’t recognize it.
the craftsmanship and material of this token were very special.
it couldn’t be imitated easily, and no one dared to fake it.
this involved the prestige of the top school and the reputation of the great gan lord dynasty.
of course, with this token, there was no way to prove bai wushang’s identity.
however, no matter which guess it was, third brother hu did not dare to underestimate it. instead, he had to be extra cautious.
at first, he was taking advantage of his seniority, but now he didn’t dare to underestimate the other party.
he was already regretting his decision and didn’t want to have anything to do with this kind of person.
however, the wood has already become a boat. rather than giving up halfway, he could not go up or down.
it was better to do her best to serve this ‘master’ well and not cause any extra trouble.
that was what third brother hu thought.
like pouring out beans, he poured out the information about the ghostman pit with great emotion.
” speaking of which, some people have been asking about this place a while ago. it’s quite interesting. ”
“oh?” bai wushang’s interest was piqued. ” who is it? ”
third brother hu shook his head. ” i don’t know. it’s a man. his reason is that he’s looking for special ores. ”
“who knows if it’s true or not, but it’s true. my friend sold the same information for 30000 gold coins and even treated me to a drink.”
bai wushang shot him a glance.
was there a hidden meaning behind his words? in other words, it meant that his information was not only reliable, but it was also worth the money.
