Chapter 17 Trading
Sikong looked at the distance, the bustling crowd walked past the towering buildings floating in the space, and then entered a huge enclosed elevator, landing on the gathering star, Sikong suddenly felt in a trance.

Following Scar and the others, Sikong went through the security scan and walked into the cosmic elevator.Then there was a sense of weightlessness, and a soft female voice came from the smooth and white ceiling above the head——

"Welcome to the southern city of the ninth cluster of the Wind Curtain Starfield, I hope all interstellar travelers and businessmen will abide by local laws and customs.

In addition, the three-yearly "Moon Cherry Festival" on this star is coming soon, and we sincerely invite pharmacists, flower appreciators, winemakers and all flower lovers to come.The access pupils of the Second World can be collected for free at the exit..."

Sikong carried forward the good habit of pretending to understand when he didn't know, and kept silent, just because he knew that someone would explain it to him.

Sure enough, the always-talkative chatterbox heard the radio, slapped his legs and laughed loudly: "We came at the right time, and we actually met the Cherry Blossom Festival!"

"This month's cherry blossoms are a specialty of the Ninth Gathering Star. Not only do they have high biological value and winemaking value, but they are also colorful. When they are in full bloom, the mountains are full of red!"

"hey-hey……"

Just as he was talking, Huaba rubbed his hands, and there seemed to be two light bulbs hanging in his eyes: "Maybe, there is a girl with an oiled paper umbrella waiting for me to meet, hehehe..."

Weird laughter came out, and Sikong, Dao Scar and the others consciously distanced themselves from Huabao, and together with other travelers, cast contemptuous glances at Huabao.

The running time of the cosmic elevator was extremely fast, and in just a few minutes, Sikong and others set foot on the gathering star.

Looking at the skyscrapers not far away, and the urban shuttle passing by in an orderly manner among the greenery in the sky, with traces of technology everywhere, the appearance of the ancient city in Sikong's memory gradually blurred.

The man with the scar handed Sikong a pupil mask soaked in the dust-free liquid, saw Sikong's distant gaze, and smiled slightly——

"The Ninth Gathering Star has four prefecture-level cities 'Donghua', 'Xichen', 'Beiding' and 'Nandu', one city and ten districts, with a total of 400 billion residents. We are now in the 'Guying' district of Nandu, which is considered a An area where dragons and snakes are mixed. Here, the second world interface."

Sikong silently accepted the so-called second world interface, and compared the division of administrative regions, states, and prefectures in his hometown, he roughly understood the concept of prefecture-level cities and districts.

"Let's go, go to the large underground exchange and get rid of it quickly."

Scar pulled up his collar, half covering his face, only the corner of his eye was exposed, and a sinister aura rushed towards his face.

In fact, since Sikong and the others stood in this huge square, many people circled them far away, unwilling to approach them.

After all, Scar and Shuttlehead are the kind of burly men with arms that can run horses and chests that can crush rocks.

Although the general living standard of the people in the empire is good and they are not short, the place where Dao Scar and the others stand is like a hill, and because they have been bandits for many years and have suffered bloody battles, they can't hide their banditry.

Sikong was among them, but he was like a little white rabbit, seeming out of place with Dao Scar and the others.

Following Dao Scar and the others, Sikong turned from the crowded street into a somewhat remote alley, after many twists and turns, the crowd gradually disappeared, deserted, and then he came to a tightly closed iron gate.

Scar looked back at Mu Xin, Mu Xin nodded, and then Scar strode in.

Suddenly, as if passing through a mist of water, a burst of ripples came from the iron gate.

Sikong lowered his head and followed in.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

A burst of turmoil that was as loud as the sea almost knocked Sikong staggeringly. Dim and flickering lights, a slightly turbid atmosphere, and noisy human voices came mixed together, and an iron gate actually separated two completely different worlds.

Sikong frowned, and after his ears got used to the berserk metal music, he saw that this was a huge spiral underground plaza with stairs.

But at this time, dense crowds of people shuttled in the square, with different clothes and different temperaments, either whispering or arguing loudly.

In the middle of the square, however, stands a huge electronic screen.

Sikong had sharp eyes, but among the bustling crowd, he saw some strange-looking creatures with tails or shells that didn't look like humans.

'Monster? '

Comparing his homeland, Sikong felt a little puzzled, but he saw that Scar regarded these creatures as normal, and walked straight to the electronic screen in the square.

"Launching, bulk, timing, tail docking."

While facing the screen skillfully, Scar spoke slang words inside an iron gate, while handing out a chip that stored the basic information of the Bone.

Not long after, a piece of paper floated out from the iron grid.

Talking tuber looked like someone who had come here, turned his head sideways, hooked his shoulders and put his back on his back, and Chun Chun taught: "In our business, there is a big deal. If you want to sell something with questionable origin, it is called launching; and Da Zong refers to the space shuttle. , Timing means that time is tight, and I want to make a move quickly."

"As for tail-docking, it's a value-added service that requires extra money. Although it's a bit expensive, it can clear up all our whereabouts when we came, so we don't have to worry about leaking our whereabouts."

Sikong nodded, remained silent, but kept it in his heart.

Dao Scar looked at the content on the piece of paper, and frowned. Seeing this, Mu Xin asked in a low voice: "What?"

Scar shook his head, looked around, but led everyone to a secret room under the square.

The room is not big, with three or two old-fashioned sofas, even a little yellowish, but in front of the sofa, there is a 'sound collection screen'.

The soundproofing effect of the room is excellent, once the door is closed, Sikong seems to have returned to the icy starry sky, and no sound can be heard from the outside world.

Si Kong imagined that the walls of the room may not only insulate the sound, but also isolate all external surveillance methods.

Sure enough, as soon as they entered the room, Dao Scar, Suo Tou Nan and others obviously relaxed, and Hua Tuan was even more aggressive, pounced on the sofa, and completely sank into the sofa.

"I didn't expect things to be exposed so quickly. We have already departed from the star field radiated by the power of the Bone Star Bandits, and came to the Wind Curtain Star Field millions of light-years away. Kill order!"

Scar frowned and sat on the sofa.

"Then what about the attitude of our poisonous wolf star bandits?" Sikong asked in turn.

"Ah……"

Mu Xin's cold voice came: "If my guess is right, we have already become abandoned children, but they still don't know what the private goods we swallowed, otherwise, hehe..."

"So, no one dares to take over?"

Suddenly, Sikong tapped his fingers subconsciously on his knees.

Scar shook his head slowly: "It's not that no one dares to take over, but that there are too many people taking over!"

"There are countless dignitaries in the star sea, and the Bone Star Bandit is a joke in front of them. Besides, through the hands of a large underground exchange, the transaction coordinates change all the time, no one knows each other's identity and position, and no one is afraid of him. Already!"

"so……"

Mu Xin stroked his forehead and said indifferently: "The price is very low."

"The highest bidder is only [-]% of the price." Scar nodded.

"Let's make a move. If you delay, it will probably be even lower." Sikong said with a frown as he looked at the densely packed offer price on the piece of paper in Scar's hand.

　Please push...
