Chapter 649 Market
“What's next?”
Yu Xing took the initiative to ask.
Carodi paused and said meaningfully: "Dess didn't tell you? With her character, she doesn't look like someone who would rush to tell others what to do."
"No way, she seemed to have something to do and was in a hurry." Yu Xing shrugged, "She kicked me out before she could tell me much."
“Tell me, what is she doing to make her so anxious?” Kalodi came to the table with a lamp, and the red blood array flickered on and off under the light and candlelight.
It made Carlo Di's face flicker.
Yu Xing could see that Kalodi was supposed to lead him to do something with the blood array, but he probably became suspicious and the other party stopped moving, waiting for an explanation.
"Who knows? How could she tell me what she was going to do?"
This is Yu Xing's reply to Kalodi's temptation.
He also walked towards the table with the blood array and sighed: "And she didn't let me come for her because she trusted me or something, but... we had taken a bath, but we hadn't done anything yet, and she suddenly turned pale. He muttered words like 'exchange' and then pushed me away."
Kalodi finally took a serious look at him. Apparently, the words Yu Xing extracted from the strange transaction record touched Kalodi's nerves, making the precarious trust a little more stable.
“Then what did she ask you to do?”
"She asked me to go out with a lamp and look for you in the dark. She said you would tell me what to do." Yu Xing spread his hands, "Then she got very anxious and asked me to get out."
Carodi: “…”
Yu Xing: "I also heard her muttering that if there was no one else, she didn't want me to see the secret or anything."
Carodi: "...Oh, this is quite true."
This serious man shook his head: "There are so many residents before you who didn't go in for the night just one day after arriving. You just happened to meet me by chance."
“Then am I lucky or unlucky?” Yu Xing raised his eyebrows.
Kalodi was silent for two seconds, seeming to be thinking about this matter, and finally he said: "...it's lucky, if you accomplish something tonight, Daisy won't attack someone who helped, let alone , your appearance is the type she likes, maybe you will join us in the future."
The word "we" is a very territorial word, which means that to Kalodi, the other residents of the hotel are outsiders.
—Probably except for little Rosie.
“Then…” Yu Xing still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Carlo Di.
"Don't ask so many questions, you will know later. Now, I want to send you to the market." Kalodi waved his hand, and Yu Xing's eyes once again fell on the other person's injured finger.
"go shopping?"
Kalodi didn't answer, and put the oil lamp into Yu Xing's hand with his uninjured hand again - which means that he didn't need to take away the oil lamp just now, he just wanted to test Yu Xing. If Yu Xing's answer was unsatisfactory, the oil lamp would be It will not return to Yu Xing's hands.
Carodi grabbed Yu Xing's arm, and covered the opening left at one end of the blood formation with another one. He drew a **** finger on it, and the formation was completed, and suddenly it lit up.
At this moment, Yu Xing felt a strong space shaking, just like he once felt the temperament of time on the witch. The breath of space exploded inch by inch, and then, a space-time tunnel-like image appeared in his inspiration. picture.
The indescribable colors were hazy, rich and weird, and Yu Xing closed his eyes unconsciously.
After a while, the atmosphere of the space slowly dissipated, but the surrounding cold wind reminded Yu Xing that he was no longer in the sealed room just now.
When he closed his eyes, Yu Xing heard the rustle of leaves being blown by the wind.
Is this the market?
Just as he was about to open his eyes, something cold covered his face. With a thought in Yu Xing's mind, a mask appeared in his mind without relying on his sight.
It was a ferocious mask like a ghost, with only a pair of black eyes exposed, and two silk ropes hanging from both sides.
"Put it on yourself and tie it up." Kalodi's voice came from the side, "Don't show your face in the market."
Yu Xing finally opened his eyes, held the mask with one hand, first placed the oil lamp on the ground, and then held the tether with both hands to fix the mask on his face.
Then he picked up the oil lamp and looked around. This is the street at night.
European medieval style streets.
It's a bit dirty, with some useless paper lying on the main street, and there is a faint smell in the more hidden alleys.
Carodi wore a similar mask on his face, completely covering his elegant and serious face, standing next to him like a bodyguard—and a supervisor.
“Where is the market?” Fortunately, there were only empty streets.
"At the corner in front." Kalodi said, "It's full of people wearing masks. Some of them are very dangerous. Don't take the initiative to talk to others later."
“Okay.” Yu Xing agreed readily.
Of course, it was impossible not to talk to others. Although Yu Xing didn't know what was in the so-called market, he could probably guess it.
The market at this point can just be called a ghost market.
Those who can wander around in the ghost market only need to use the word "city" again.
That's just right. Yu Xing wanted to talk to a ghost and get information - because the background of the dungeon where the hotel is located is too messy.
It was both the Middle Ages and a hospital. The chaos of space and time made Yu Xing certain that there must be more complicated secrets hidden than what appeared on the surface. Therefore, when he could contact people outside the hotel, he had to seize the opportunity.
He began to walk forward with Kalodi holding the lantern.
The visibility on the open-air street is much better than inside the hotel. It is more like a normal night, and it can even make Yu Xing feel a little comfortable.
After walking a few steps, the street under his feet came to an end, and Kalodi took him around a corner—everything suddenly changed.
The street that was empty just now suddenly had many figures, swaying at the end of the line of sight.
Looking at it this way, the market can even be considered lively.
Vendors sit on both sides, and tourists walk in the middle of the road. From time to time, they pick and choose the things sold on both sides and bend down to bargain.
Every tourist is carrying a portable oil lamp in his hand, and every vendor's stall is also lit with an oil lamp.
From a distance, it all happened in silence, which was extremely strange.
Yu Xing couldn't hear any sound until he got closer and closer. Kalodi asked again: "Did Daisy say anything to buy tonight?"
Yu Xing: "...Do you think she has time to say it?"
"Then buy it according to your preference." Kalodi seemed speechless for a moment, "Tell me what you like, I have the money."
Yu Xing was instantly happy. Although buying things was not his main purpose, anyone who heard that he could get something for free would feel happy!
Getting closer to the market.
The people inside didn't react at all to the two people walking towards them, and were still performing mime. Until Yu Xing stepped into the area of the first vendor, it was like a sudden wave of voices separated by the steel plate, like Deaf patients suddenly recover.
“Sweet bread…Grandma Elsa's signature sweet bread!”
“Fresh potatoes!”
“Precious spices—sold only for one day!”
The sudden commotion stopped Yu Xing in his tracks, and Carlo Di secretly poked him: "Don't be stunned, don't show that it's your first time here, something will happen."
I've had a bad cold these past two days. I feel very dizzy and have headaches and other symptoms (I've had nucleic acid tests done, but it's just a cold), so I've stopped working. I'm trying to drink more hot water.
