As Ye Feng's words fell, the two burly men at the alley entrance immediately had a drastic change in expression, their hands flying to the holsters at their waists.
The burly men who had been sitting on the ground leaning against the wall chatting and boasting at the back of the alley all gathered around, looking at Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao with unfriendly expressions.
"Hmm?"
Seeing this, Ye Feng frowned slightly, muttering to himself, "Did I come to the wrong place? It shouldn't be, Zheng Huzi said this was the place!"
"Kid, do you know what you're saying?"
"The Armorer Selection Assembly is personally hosted by the City Lord. Only those who pass the test stick can participate. You're running here to buy? Is your brain short-circuited?"
The burly man on the left side of the alley, hearing that Ye Feng was not old, asked him in a deep voice.
"You've come to the wrong place. We don't have what you're looking for, get lost!"
The burly man on the right side of the alley also chimed in. As he spoke, he drew his revolver from its holster.
Ye Feng didn't speak. A flash of light appeared in his hand, and a packet of 666 Ganmaoling instantly appeared.
"This..."
The two burly men at the alley entrance exchanged glances, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes!
Before the two could respond, another flash of light appeared in Ye Feng's hand, and another packet of Ganmaoling appeared. This time, the two burly men at the alley entrance completely lost their composure.
Inside the alley, someone saw this scene and quickly turned to run towards the end of the alley.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a buzz cut, fierce eyes, and a seemingly high status strode out from the end of the alley.
Accompanying the middle-aged man was a man with large black-rimmed glasses and half his hair turned white.
Soon, the middle-aged man and the man with the large black-rimmed glasses arrived in front of Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao.
The man with the large black-rimmed glasses quickly stepped forward, adjusted his glasses, and observed the Ganmaoling packets in Ye Feng's hand. Then, he turned around and nodded to the middle-aged man, "Genuine, and the packaging is still new. It was probably taken out of a treasure chest not long ago!"
"Follow me~!"
The fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man tilted his head, signaling Ye Feng to follow him into the alley.
After a series of turns and twists, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao actually walked out of the alley and into a crowded, noisy, and seemingly chaotic place.
"This..."
After looking around, Ye Feng couldn't help but be surprised.
He had expected to trade with these people in a secluded spot in the alley, but instead, they were in a chaotic and noisy place.
"You're looking for a spot in the Armorer Selection Assembly?"
At this moment, the fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man glanced at Xiao Xiao, who only reached Ye Feng's waist, and asked.
"Mm!~"
Ye Feng frowned slightly.
The other party's voice was not loud, and beside them, someone was playing the saxophone loudly. If not for his good hearing, he wouldn't have been able to hear what the other party was saying.
"Ten packets of Ganmaoling!"
The fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man quickly responded.
Hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but frown. He smiled and said, "Is this how you do business?"
"It's not my first time buying, I've just been having others buy for me before. This time, I had something to do, so I had to come myself!"
Although Zheng Huzi didn't know how much a spot in the Armorer Selection Assembly cost or how it was sold, as it was all barter, Ye Feng knew very well that the other party was definitely overcharging.
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, the fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man frowned tightly, while the man with the large black-rimmed glasses remained expressionless.
"I'm going over there~"
Suddenly, Xiao Xiao said to Ye Feng and quickly walked in a direction.
Ye Feng instinctively worried, but remembering that Xiao Xiao's current strength was quite formidable, he didn't stop him.
"Eight packets of Ganmaoling, ten aspirin, one bottle of 200..."
After turning a corner and about to enter a street, a gray-black shadow suddenly flashed past Xiao Xiao, and Xiao Xiao instantly fainted to the ground.
And that gray-black shadow quickly floated towards the folding fan girl ahead...
Not long after Xiao Xiao fainted on the ground, a young man with a rakish demeanor, chewing on a blade of grass, passed by. Seeing Xiao Xiao on the ground, he looked ecstatic...
...
Meanwhile, on Ye Feng's side,
"Deal!"
After a long period of eye contact between Ye Feng and the fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man, a muffled voice rang out.
However, the person who spoke was not the fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man, but rather the middle-aged man with the large black-rimmed glasses who had seemed to be his subordinate and was responsible for verifying the authenticity of the Ganmaoling.
"This token is the proof for participating in tomorrow's Armorer Selection Assembly!"
To Ye Feng's surprise, a flash of light appeared in the hand of the middle-aged man with the large black-rimmed glasses, and he handed over a metal token with strange runes, resembling an Arcane Coin in appearance.
"If you want to trade, do it quickly!"
Seeing Ye Feng's lack of reaction, the middle-aged man with the large black-rimmed glasses urged him.
Ye Feng frowned slightly, examined the metal token for a while, and finally took it, while also handing over two packets of Ganmaoling and three aspirin.
The middle-aged man with the large black-rimmed glasses glanced at the aspirin in the plastic shell, then a flash of light appeared in his hand, and he put it into his spatial rift fragment ring. He then nodded to the fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man beside him.
The fierce-looking buzzed-cut middle-aged man immediately understood, turned around, and left. The middle-aged man with the large black-rimmed glasses followed closely behind, and they quickly disappeared into the crowd...
At this moment, the saxophone player next to Ye Feng's voice also became quieter, and finally stopped to rest listlessly...
"Is this saxophone player also one of their people?"
Ye Feng quickly understood.
However, Ye Feng had no time to think, because Xiao Xiao had not returned yet, nor had he called him or used a fireball or anything similar to signal him.
Inevitably, he had a bad premonition!
After looking around again and still not finding Xiao Xiao, Ye Feng quickly pushed through the crowd and walked in the direction Xiao Xiao had gone.
Soon, Ye Feng arrived at a building corner at an intersection. At this moment, he frowned tightly, and his heart was filled with annoyance and anxiety.
Because he didn't know Xiao Xiao's next direction of travel, or rather, if Xiao Xiao had even come here...
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng's eyes narrowed because he saw a flash of light on the ground.
Curious, Ye Feng squatted down to examine it and found that it was a diamond, and it was a full carat.
"This... this is from the diamond watch Xiao Xiao just bought while shopping!"
Upon seeing this diamond, Ye Feng's face turned grim.
