Chapter 13
The wooden stick in her hand suddenly fell, and she was startled, thinking that something bad had happened to her.
But then her arms began to become transparent, and then her arms and body began to become transparent.
Is she going to die or go back?
…
When Shen Muye was young, he grew up eating at many people's homes. The uncles and aunts who were in the same company with his father often took him to play in the army.
At that time, nothing had happened at home, and his uncles and aunts were still in the army. He also lived in the army's family compound, although the Shen family, including other uncles and aunts, opposed him joining the army.
But he has been trained a lot so that he can protect himself and have a strong physique.
A few wolves were nothing in his eyes, but he didn't want to show his cruel side in front of the soft-hearted girl.
After luring the wolves away, he found a stick and a stone and killed the leader in a few strokes.
After seeing his ferocity, the other wolves lost their initial persistence. However, wolves are vengeful, and Shen Muye was afraid that they would miss his aunt, so he killed all the wolves.
Without bothering to deal with the wolves, he quickly found a water source, washed the blood off his body, and walked towards the cave where Lian Nianke was hiding.
He almost ran the entire way, and his straw sandals had long since disappeared.
When he was about to reach the cave, he quickly slowed down his pace, adjusted his breathing, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with his body, he approached the cave cautiously.
"Ahem~ It's me, auntie!" He was afraid that Lian Nian, who was hiding inside, would be scared, so he spoke out in advance to remind her.
His usually dull and cold face now had a hint of tenderness, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
There was no response from the cave, and his heart sank. He grabbed the stone and quickly approached the cave, not caring about the possibility of a sudden attack from the people inside, which would cause him to fall off the cliff.
When he stood at the entrance of the cave and saw that there was no one inside except for a few familiar things, the corners of his mouth that were raised on his face quickly straightened.
The originally radiant eyes gradually dimmed.
The end of the cave could be seen at a glance. He walked in dejectedly and sat in Lian Nianke's seat with a blank look in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
Lian Nianke breathed a sigh of relief when she returned to the real world. She glanced at the time and saw that it was already eleven o'clock. It was almost time for her to get up, wash up, and get ready to go out.
She had just finished washing up when there was a knock on the door.
"Coco, are you up?"
"Godmother, I'm up." When I opened the door, I saw Fu Yao standing at the door with a smile on her face.
"Hurry up and get up. I made some breakfast in advance. Your godfather said it will take a long time, so you should eat something to fill your stomach."
"Thank you, godmother!"
Fu Yao glared at her with a reproachful smile: "You kid, you just like to be polite to me."
"Come and have dinner. Let's go there early to avoid attracting attention."
Lian Nianke thought what he said was right. The two of them ate something casually, and then Dong Qianyi drove them towards the black market.
The relationships behind the black market are complicated, and no one dares to cause trouble here.
The black market, also known as the ghost market, is located in an underground tunnel in the west of the city. It is said that this was left over from the palace when people fled.
Later, it was taken over by the person in charge of the black market. The passage would only be opened when the black market was open. The entrance and exit places were different, and only those who entered could know the direction of exit.
This can also ensure the safety of buyers and sellers to a great extent.
Dong Qianyi and Lian Nianke got out of the car. When they reached the door, they were stopped by someone. After showing their invitations, they both received two identical masks.
The white mask covered the entire face, with only the eyes exposed.
Unless someone is very familiar with your figure, back and voice, no one can tell this.
After entering the corridor, there are dim oil lamps on the walls on both sides. The further you go inside, the larger the space becomes, and people can gradually be seen.
The people inside were also wearing masks, the only difference was that the sellers wore black masks, while the buyers wore white masks.
Everyone was very quiet, even when they were talking they kept their voices low and close to their ears.
From the moment he entered here, Lian Nianke was extremely alert. Dong Qianyi walked in front, and the two of them walked slowly.
I don’t know if it’s because the air in the space is not circulating, but the smell is really bad.
On the red brick floor, goods were placed on both sides with uniform cowhide. There was a not very bright oil lamp on each stall, so you could barely see the things on it, but it was a bit difficult to see carefully.
Lian Nianke saw that when some people squatted down, they would directly take out a small flashlight for inspection from their pockets. This small flashlight has a strong focusing power, but it does not have a very bright light.
Although Lian Nian Ke majored in archaeology, many fake things nowadays are almost indistinguishable from the real ones, so Lian Nian Ke didn't dare to squat down and take a look.
"In fact, most of the things here are real. These people don't bother to make fakes. You just have to look carefully at the style and year. Some things have different years, styles, and places of production, and use different pigments, so the value is also different." Dong Qianyi lowered his voice and explained to Lian Nianke.
This is also the reason why invitations are needed. Aside from the fact that the sources of the items are a bit messy, more importantly, most of the items in them are real things. If people who don’t have much money come, it would be a waste of everyone’s time.
These people who set up stalls have all paid money to the managers of the black market.
So that's how it is.
Lian Nianke felt a lot more relieved instantly. His teacher was a leading figure in the field of archaeology, and with his eye on things, there was no doubt he would be right.
However, Lian Nianke still did not forget to call the system, "System, can you know the value of each item?"
[No, Miss Lian! ]
"Then what use is there for me to have you? Don't forget that you almost cost me my life."
Lian Nianke contacted the system after returning to the real world, but because the time was almost up, he didn't say anything.
The system felt a little guilty after hearing Lian Nianke's words. It also just realized that it had encountered a wolf when it was teleported there. If it was not careful and was really bitten to death by the wolf, then it would really die.
But at that time, it had no other choice.
"I don't know what your world means by value." He said weakly.
It is a system of ages. You only know what you know and what you can do, and you don’t know anything else.
Lian Nianke was so blocked that he didn't know what to say.
At this time, Dong Qianyi stopped in front of a stall and saw a snuff bottle, which he was holding in his hand and examining carefully.
