Chapter 106 Ancient Association [Please subscribe tickets! 】

In the evening, Jiang Sheng switched to his trumpet, dressed in a neat suit, and came to the old town of Zhaoyang City.

There are few people in the old city, and the streets are even more empty at night, without the excitement that a city should have.

But when there was still an intersection away from the target location, more and more people emerged from the surrounding alleys, and all of them were dressed in strange clothes, and there were not a few people wearing masks.

Jiang Sheng thought for a while, and put on his fox face mask.

The target location is called Guji Pawnshop, with an antique architectural style, and the two doors are even red-lacquered carved wooden doors. Jiang Sheng actually sensed the faint ancient energy fluctuations on them.

It can be seen that the ancient association is indeed something.

On the street at the entrance, a housekeeper from a pawn shop set up a table to stop those who wanted to enter and collect tolls.

When queuing up, Jiang Sheng took a special look. The toll was not cheap, and it cost 1000 yuan.

Reject those who want to enter and have fun with a high bar.

Of course, except for the rich, who consume here, except for those who have ancient Pokémon at home, the main consumers are the rich, who use it for collection or gift giving.

When it was Jiang Sheng's turn, Jiang Sheng took a black ball and put it on the table as his master said.

The pawnshop butler looked serious, got up and saluted, and hurriedly said, "Your honored guest!"

He raised his hand and summoned a waiter, and told him to take good care of him, making others envious.

Some Lengtouqing looked displeased, didn't know the identity of the representative of the black ball, opened their mouths to complain, and were persuaded by the kind-hearted people beside them.

The jet-black ball represents the direct lineage of the ancient association, and the owner is either a senior tomb robber himself, or a newcomer with an inheritance, which is different from those tomb robbers who are just dawdling around.

It's not that Jiang Sheng wants to make a high profile, the main reason is that there are too many people here, and it may take a long time to wait in line. Wouldn't it be nice to have this time to go back and meditate for a while?

After being led into the yard by a waiter, the more than 100-square-meter yard was already packed to the brim. The entrants lined up in two lines, waiting to be arranged to go underground.

"Guest, please follow me to the backyard!"

Being led to the backyard by the waiter, Jiang Sheng saw three abrupt wooden houses.

There is a wooden sign on the door of each wooden house that indicates the direction, which are "ancient hall", "negotiation office", and "antiquities market"!
The three major components of the ancient association!
Jiang Sheng read the introduction in the book, and every branch is like this.

Among them, the ancient hall is a place that only those who have the jet-black ball can enter. It can be regarded as a mission hall exclusively for internal descendants. There will be some clues of ancient tombs or ancient Pokémon on it regularly, and you can buy it with money.

The exchange office can be regarded as the official trading center set by the Ancient Association.

You can put requirements in it, ask for purchase, sale, and exchange of some things, and the ancient association will come forward to guarantee the items and guarantee the rights and interests of both parties.

On the other hand, there are mostly loose stalls in the antiquities market, and the Ancient Association rents out the stalls and collects rent.

The Ancient Association does not guarantee the authenticity of the items on the booth, and whether they are leaked or not depends entirely on the individual operation.

Seeing Jiang Sheng stop, the waiter knew that this person was a new face, so he understood. He was about to introduce the functions of each wooden house, but was interrupted by Jiang Sheng raising his hand.

"Thank you, no need to introduce, you can go to work!"

After finishing speaking, Jiang Sheng pushed away the wooden house in the "ancient hall" in the middle and stepped in.

There is no extra decoration in the wooden house, only a spiral staircase leading to the ground.

It was a long way to go down the stairs. After walking for about 5 minutes, Jiang Sheng went down to the end of the stairs and saw a waiter standing by the door.

"Show your pass!"

Jiang Sheng took out a black ball again, and after the waiter verified the authenticity, he returned the elf ball and pushed open the wooden door for Jiang Sheng.

Into the eye is a narrow alleyway, about 10 meters long, but it is much brighter than the stairs.

At the end of the alleyway, there was another door, and Jiang Sheng couldn't complain anymore.

No wonder it is called the Ancient Association—the gathering place of tomb robbers. The architectural structure here is comparable to that of Lada Cave.

Pushing the door open again, Jiang Sheng finally arrived at his destination.

The color of the room is slightly dim, and the tables, counters and other furnishings inside are very simple, and there are display cabinets in the four corners, on which are four identical exquisite porcelains.

The birthmark on the wrist reacted again, the corners of Jiang Sheng's mouth curled up, is it real again?

Judging from the degree of reaction given by the birthmark, a piece of porcelain contains at least 300 points of ancient energy. This ancient association is really rich and powerful, which made Jiang Sheng plan to loot it.

There was no customer in the hall, only a pretty waitress was sitting at the counter with an elegant purple cat Pokémon.

Sun Eevee, level 35, characteristic [synchronization]!
Jiang Sheng: ...

I didn't have any thoughts of looting just now, I was just joking, don't take it seriously.

A trainer with a level 35 rare Pokémon sits here as a waiter, and the energy of the Ancient Association is really good.

Jiang Sheng adjusted his mentality, restrained his inner frivolity, walked to the counter, sat on a high-legged chair, and looked at the wooden sign hanging on the wall behind the counter.

Coincidentally, there are a total of six wooden signs, all of which are turned over, which means that all six clues have been picked up.

Taiyang Ibrahimovic, who was lying on the counter and pretending to be asleep, seemed to sense something, opened his eyes and got up, and rubbed his head next to Jiang Sheng's sleeve.

The big cat is quite pleasing, Jiang Sheng raised his hand and rubbed its head, Sun Yibrahimovic was very cooperative, with a satisfied face.

This scene stunned the woman behind the counter. Is this still the noble cat owner in the past?

How do you look like a licking dog now?
"Superpowers?"

The woman asked suddenly.

"Hmm... well, it counts!"

Jiang Sheng replied vaguely.

The woman breathed a sigh of relief, it's right to be a person with super powers, and super power Pokémon like them very much.

If the masked person in front of her is an ordinary person, she will ask the big cat if the food is not suitable for him recently and he wants to change his owner.

"To buy clues?"

"Well, when will it be updated, can you give me an exact time?"

The other party was in the mood for a conversation, which was exactly what Jiang Sheng wanted, so he took advantage of the slope to get down the donkey, and wanted to ask some inside information.

The woman thought for a while and said:

"The earliest one was sold 13 days ago. After the 15-day deadline, we will find out that there is still an ancient energy reaction at the location of the clue, and then we will put the clue out and resell it. You can check the situation when the time comes."

Finally, she reminded one more sentence:
"However, there may be other new clues from time to time. If you are in a hurry and need to go to the tomb as soon as possible, you can come and see it every day."

Jiang Sheng nodded slightly:

"Okay, thank you!"

After finishing speaking, Jiang Sheng flicked the big cat's forehead jewel lightly before getting up and leaving.

He went around the counter and ran to the door marked "Antiquities Bazaar".

"Wait, I met someone in the antiquities market who said he bought clues from us and wanted to invite people to form a team to go down to the tomb. Don't talk to him."

Jiang Sheng turned around, a little puzzled:
"Who dares to make trouble in the name of the Ancient Association?"

"It's a real clue, but the person who went with him never came back, it's been four times in a row."

"Our exploration team has detected that there is still an ancient energy reaction in the target location. After hanging up the clues again, he will run out again, take the clues away, and then bring a group of cheap pickers to die."

Jiang Sheng understood that this was a fisherman.

Buy the clues yourself, and then find someone to form a group, and other people don't have to bear the clue fee, so as to attract a group of cheap ones.

Then he hunted and killed his teammates in cooperation, sold their belongings and Pokémon, and earned a large income.

The Ancient Association doesn't care about this kind of thing, they only guarantee that the clues sold are true.

It's none of their business if the people who pick up the clues do something out of the ordinary during the teamwork.

"Is he very strong? And the ancient tomb pointed to by your clues, is the level of strength there also high?"

The woman glanced at Jiang Sheng lightly, and said:
"The latter is a secret!"

Jiang Sheng said "oh", thought for a while, and kindly reminded:

"If it's good for your Pokémon, you should try to change jobs."

"After all, it is Sun Eevee. It seems that because it has been in the ground for too long, the brightness of the gemstone on its forehead is not right. Maybe you have become accustomed to it and haven't noticed it."

The woman's complexion changed, and she quickly lifted Sun Ibrahimovic's head to look at it, and then found other high-definition pictures of Sun Ibrahimovic for comparison.

After noticing the difference, the woman's face darkened.

Her Sun Ibrahimovic, the jewel on top of her head was slightly dim, but because she had seen it for a long time, she was used to it, so she didn't care at all.

In the long run, her Sun Eevee will be weaker than the same kind, and it will be hard to return and difficult to be cured.

"The strength level of neither of them exceeds level 30. When he is looking for players, he will ask the opponent's strength, and he will politely reject those who are too strong."

"thank you very much!"

After thanking him, Jiang Sheng pushed open the door representing the "Antiquities Market" and left.

The woman shook her head:

"Another self-righteous one going to die!"
