Chapter 205: Speculations about the clergy? Night Watchman Ghost Market!
"Lu Mengmeng!"
Zheng Cheng immediately spotted a familiar figure in the crowd. More than a dozen people were surrounding the logistics personnel who were carrying the corpse, asking loud questions.
Meng Yao is their colleague. She is usually lively, hospitable and very popular in the special department.
How could he lose his breath in just a short while?
"Let's go."
Yao Zhixue said from behind: "We'd better leave and let Director Wu explain the rest."
"Um."
Zheng Cheng nodded, and while everyone's attention was focused on Meng Yao's body, the three of them left the Night Watch headquarters.
"Brother Cheng."
Halfway through the conversation, Rookie suddenly said, "Why do I feel that Senior Wu is a little..."
"A bit arbitrary, or too extreme in doing things?"
"yes!"
Rookie said anxiously: "He is too impatient!"
"You just helped them find the Fallen, and he just did it without any plans? And in front of the three of us? Isn't this harming us?"
"If it were me, I would definitely let us leave first, and then gather the Fallen's spies together and catch them all in one fell swoop."
"At worst, you can do it quietly in private, how..."
Zheng Cheng shook his head and said, "The spies who can hide in the Night's Watch headquarters are the elite among the elites. They can even evade the ability of questioning. How can you be sure that they will not notice the abnormality in advance and escape?"
"If it were me, I would definitely act immediately and swiftly to nip the danger in the bud."
"As for Director Wu's work style..." Zheng Cheng said, "Decisive and direct, those who do great things don't pay attention to details. Such people, as long as they prove their ability and value, will definitely be reused."
"But there is also a high probability of being used as bait!"
"In the future, please don't come here too often. If you can refuse a mission, just refuse it!"
"Understood!"
The three of them left and found Zhao Wufeng, who was bored.
Under the leadership of Zhao Wufeng, they headed towards the ghost market in the imperial capital.
At this time, in the special department of the Night Watch, Wu Fuqing made a phone call.
"Xin Lao, it's over."
"oh?"
An old voice came from the other end of the phone: "What's the result?"
"As you expected, the boy performed really well."
Wu Fuqing said: "Not only did he find the pest in our Night's Watch headquarters in a very short time, but he even failed to detect Lord Qianhuan's Thousand Illusion Soul Division Technique."
"The most important thing is that he took the full force attack from the Xuanjie captain!"
"Really? It seems our guess is correct."
The old voice on the other end of the phone continued: "Did you offend him?"
Wu Fuqing smiled and said, "It's not like I offended him. I understand that young people are full of energy."
" Master Xin, is he really a priest?"
"This is just some guesswork among us old guys."
Elder Xin continued, "Instantaneous outbreak of acute gastroenteritis. Haha, this kind of joke-like ability can actually ignore the resistance of professionals . Don't you think it's strange?"
"And the investigative ability he has shown now, you also said that he couldn't even hide it from that old ghost Qian Huan."
"So I have reason to believe that Zheng Cheng is the legendary priest!"
"Just like the Angel Melody from Eagle Country who mastered the art of resurrection!"
Wu Fuqing asked again: "What should we do now?"
"wait!"
"wait?"
"Yes." Elder Xin said, "The growth of priesthood is full of randomness. Judging from his abilities, he is not very strong. Not to mention Melody's resurrection technique, even the priesthoods promoted by other countries cannot compare to it."
"But he's a little surprise, wait till he grows up!"
"I see."
"Well." Elder Xin said, "I'll hang up if there's nothing else."
"Um."
late at night.
Zheng Cheng looked at the scene in front of him in surprise.
This is a street located in the north of the city, next to which is the tall city wall that guards the imperial capital.
On the side of the city wall, a market about five kilometers long was opened up.
Even though it was late at night, the place was bustling and lively.
Cai Ji had something urgent to do, and Yao Zhixue was called away by the instructor, so only he and Zhao Wufeng came to the ghost market.
Zhao Wufeng smiled and said, "How about it? You are surprised, right? You didn't expect that the ghost market in the imperial capital would be like this ."
There were people coming and going around, and various stalls were set up on both sides of the street. At least thousands of people were crowded here, sightseeing and shopping, and quarrels and arguments could be heard from time to time.
Zheng Cheng glanced at the road sign next to him: "Sajin Bridge?"
Zhao Wufeng explained: "Before the catastrophe, this place was a place specializing in antiques, and later it gradually became a ghost market."
"Because it is close to the outskirts of the city and is located on the edge of several large organizations such as the Night Watch, the Professional Guild, and the University Town, a street with professional transactions as its theme has gradually formed."
A few people chatted as they walked, and kept observing the goods on the surrounding stalls.
Equipment, props, weapons, alchemical items, talismans, animal eggs, everything is available, the variety is dazzling and overwhelming.
In addition to these stalls, there are several large shops in the center of both sides, where there are more people.
Zheng Cheng asked: "Is there any shop here that sells monster corpses?"
"Monster corpse?" Although Zhao Wufeng was a little surprised, he still said, "Of course there is."
"Monster corpses are important raw materials for both alchemists and alchemists, and they are widely circulated."
"Here...there."
Zhao Wufeng pointed to a hideous-looking building in front and said, "That is the largest store in the ghost market that sells and buys monster corpses. It's called 'Leopard Garden'."
Then, Zhao Wufeng mentioned again: "That family is the property of the Zheng family in the imperial capital."
"Zheng family?"
Zheng Cheng's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "I understand, I'll go take a look."
Zhao Wufeng stopped and said, "If you want to go to Leopard Garden, go by yourself. I won't follow you."
"oh?"
Zheng Cheng asked curiously, "Why? Is there a conflict with the Zheng family?"
Zhao Wufeng glanced around and whispered, "I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else. The Zheng family is the family of the first nine-star professional of our Blue Star human race, so they have a very special status."
"But due to some accidents more than a hundred years ago, the Zheng family was split into two, which had a great impact on our Xia country."
"There were some conflicts at that time, and since then there has been an obvious rift between our several pioneer families in the imperial capital and the Zheng family in the imperial capital."
"Anyway, you just need to know that the Zheng family is above all other professional families, but is feared by other pioneer families."
Zheng Cheng's eyes flashed and he said, "I understand."
"Wait here, I'll go take a look."
Zhao Wufeng asked curiously, "You want to buy the corpse of a monster? What do you want that for?"
"I signed up for the elective course 'Special Food Nutrition and Health', which requires me to dissect a large number of monster corpses, so I wanted to buy some to practice."
"'Nutrition and Health of Special Foods'? Shentu Dao?"
Zhao Wufeng blinked and said, "You didn't sign up for Shen Tudao's elective course, did you?"
"It's Teacher Shentu, what's wrong?"
Zhao Wufeng said with pity: "Crazy Shentu, you are so awesome that you dare to sign up for his class."
"Go ahead, go ahead, I won't stop you!"
