Chapter 165 The Forsaken Disciple is Not to be Trifled With (Part 27)



Castle Peak.

"Senior brother, wait here for me for a moment, I'm going to ask about something!"

As Lin Xue turned a street corner, she called Chu Xuan to a stop.

"Junior sister, where are you going?"

Chu Xuan looked around and saw that there was nothing to eat or anything interesting to do. What was his junior sister up to?

"Oh, senior brother! You can wait for me here!"

After Lin Xue finished speaking, she left Chu Xuan and ran towards the little beggar on the street.

Chu Xuan: His junior sister is indeed kind-hearted; she's off doing a good deed!

Lin Xue: Senior brother is probably just imagining things again!

"You lot, I have a question for you. Whoever can answer it will get this fixed amount of silver from me."

Lin Xue held a two-tael piece of silver in her hand, tossing it up and down in her palm.

"Sister, just ask! We'll tell you everything we know!"

Several little beggars stared at the silver ingot in Lin Xue's hand, their eyes gleaming with longing.

Everyone stared intently, as if afraid the silver would sprout legs and run away.

"Come, tell your sister! Where is the immortal black market here?"

Lin Xue stopped tossing the silver coins and held them in her palm, then handed them forward.

The children stared wide-eyed at the glittering silver coin in Lin Xue's fair hand.

But how could these little beggars possibly know about the black market where the immortals reside?

Just as the children were feeling disappointed, a little boy opened his mouth and said something.

"Sister, I know!"

This is a boy who is about ten years old. He is dressed in tattered clothes and looks very thin.

"Then you tell me, and if you answer correctly, I'll give you this piece of silver!"

Lin Xue turned her gaze to the little boy. The boy's eyes were bright and sparkling, but Lin Xue could see shrewdness and patience in them.

"Sister, I can't quite describe that place, but I can take you there!"

The little boy didn't immediately take the two taels of silver, but decided to take Lin Xue directly there.

"Can't you explain it clearly? Then you can lead the way!"

Lin Xue tossed the silver to the other party, then stood up and waved to Chu Xuan, who was not far behind her.

"Okay, sister!"

The little boy took the silver ingot and carefully handed it to another little boy next to him. Then he led Lin Xue and the other boy towards the other end of the street.

"Junior sister, where are we going?"

Chu Xuan hadn't heard Lin Xue's conversation with the children and thought that Lin Xue wasn't content with just doing good deeds on the street, but also had to go to people's homes.

"Senior brother, we can just follow along!"

Lin Xue didn't explain anything and followed behind the little boy.

"Sister, you have to go through several intersections after entering this alley to get to where you're looking for!"

The little boy seemed to breathe a sigh of relief only after he found the alley.

It seems the child wasn't lying to her; he did indeed know the address of the black market.

After entering the alley, numerous forks appeared. Lin Xue and her companion followed behind the little boy, turning left and right.

If it were a normal person, they would have been knocked unconscious by now.

"There's a formation here!"

Chu Xuan offered a reminder, as he felt something was off about this place.

"I know, it's okay!"

Lin Xue's radar system had been activated long ago. Since arriving at the alley entrance, even if the little boy didn't lead the way, Lin Xue could find the entrance on her own.

However, judging from the current situation, the child hasn't been playing any tricks and has been honestly leading the way.

"Sister, it's just ahead!"

"Just go around this wall, that's not a place I can go. From here on out, you'll have to walk the rest of the way yourselves!"

When they reached a bend in the road, the little boy stopped and stepped aside to make way for them.

"Okay, thank you for today!"

After Lin Xue finished speaking, she took out 20 jin of rice from her spatial storage and stuffed a silver ingot into the little boy's arms.

"In the future, if anyone asks you about this place again, you can ask for more!"

She placed the bag of rice on the ground in front of the little boy. She didn't dare give him too much, because she was afraid that the child wouldn't be able to carry it and that he wouldn't be able to keep it safe!

This 20-pound bag of rice should be enough for the little boy to carry.

"Thank you, fairy sister. I'll head back now!"

The child was overjoyed to see the half-bag of rice.

Thinking back, I can have a few good meals with my friends when I get back.

Go!

Lin Xue waved to the little boy, then led Chu Xuan into the alley.

"Junior sister, where are we going?"

Chu Xuan, who had been following Lin Xue without any apparent reason, couldn't help but ask again at this moment.

"A visit from an immortal!"

As soon as Lin Xue uttered those three words, Chu Xuan immediately knew where they were.

"Xianrenfang" refers to the places where our ancestors set up stalls to sell their goods. These places were a mixed bag, and the quality of the goods varied greatly.

The real and the fake are mixed together. If you're lucky, you might find something genuine, but if you're unlucky, you might be scammed out of everything.

However, thinking back to when my junior sister was in Liulin Town, she also frequently went to these places.

Although most of the time she just went to take a look, and she had dragged me along a few times, I wasn't very interested in it because it involved too much gambling.

Places where cultivators spontaneously set up stalls in the cultivation world are called "Immortal's Visits," but mortals would call these places "Black Markets."

This is a place they are not allowed to come to. If they accidentally wander in, they could be thrown out at best, or even beaten to death at worst.
