Did he take out 27 Black Sea coins just to trick me into working for him? Tang Ling wondered if he was hallucinating, and he had the urge to curse out loud.
However, at that very moment, as if God felt that the scene was not lively enough, a group of Black Wind guards hurried down from above.
They chased the crowd away and ordered the group to move forward. Then, they brought the man and Tang Ling and the other two to the platform at the entrance.
Tang Ling sharply sensed that the Black Wind guards had an unknown reverence for the man, but somehow, they did not show it at all. Instead, they pretended that they did not know the man.
It's a scheme!
With that in mind, Tang Ling unconsciously glanced at the man beside him, and a single glance rendered him speechless.
He saw the man winking at the team of Black Wind Guards without any intention of hiding it.
When the Black Wind guards saw the man's gaze, every single one of them showed a tacit understanding expression, but on the surface, they behaved like they were doing their job.
They did not even try to hide it? They did it right in front of me?
Nevertheless, Tang Ling did not care. If it was an enemy, he would have the courage to face and resist. If so many of them were working together just to make him work for them? Was that their goal? A strange feeling rose in Tang Ling's heart.
Let's wait and see.
The group of Black Wind guards had already brought them to the wide platform at the entrance of the city.
On this platform, there were some decorative flowers and plants, as well as a large office. Apart from that, there was also the huge city gate that looked like a decoration at the stern of a ship that had to be passed to enter the city.
The people in front and behind Tang Ling started to enter the city one after another.
Tang Ling and the others were brought to the so-called office, and they might have to work for him since time was tight.
Hmph.
Tang Ling quickly thought about how to deal with the situation and calculated the gains and losses.
It was then that a man who seemed to be the leader of the Black Wind guards walked out.
The moment he saw the old fox, he was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, he heard the old fox cough.
After the cough, the leader of the Black Wind guards immediately put on a serious face and asked, "What's going on?"
Tang Ling had made up his mind, so he pretended to be helpless and lost, unable to speak.
Ro Li and Ro Xin could not speak, so they watched the old fox walk up to the captain with a grin and spew out a series of words.
"Yes, it's only right and proper to repay a debt. Take out the contract and put your fingerprint on it. He'll be your servant. " The captain did not even bother to ask Tang Ling and the others. After the old fox finished talking, he ordered his men to bring the contract over.
Contract? Servant?! There's such a thing? Tang Ling instantly lost his calm. It was different from what he had expected.
However, the so-called contract had already been taken out. The old fox took a quick glance at it before he stamped his fingerprint on it. He then brought the contract to Tang Ling. "Put your fingerprint on it. My time is precious."
Is my time not precious? Tang Ling made up his mind. If the old fox wanted to take him away, so be it, but he would never sign the contract.
However, the old fox did not seem to care about Tang Ling's wishes. He grabbed Tang Ling's hand. Right after Tang Ling struggled, something strange happened again. The strength of his struggle changed, causing his arm to be pressed down heavily. Pak! The ink got stuck on his arm, and with a flick of his palm, he stamped his fingerprint on the contract.
It was as if the old fox impatiently stamped his own fingerprint on the contract.
It was at that moment that Ro Xin somehow regained her ability to speak. When she saw the scene, she blurted out, "Tang Ling, what are you doing?"
"Tang Ling, do you have a hobby of being a servant?" At the same time, Ro Li was able to speak again. He was shocked when he saw Tang Ling stamping the contract with his fingerprint.
Was there any point in explaining now? Tang Ling glanced at the contract. It said that the contract would last for a hundred years. Was he going to f * ck him until he died?
"You win," Tang Ling mouthed at the old fox.
The old fox smiled with squinted eyes and also mouthed back, "You owe me money."
Since it was pointless to argue, Tang Ling did not panic. He said to the captain of the Black Wind guards, "The contract has been signed. This has nothing to do with my friends, so can you let them go now?"
The captain glanced at the old fox.
The old fox chewed on the crispy rice calmly and did not object to Tang Ling's request.
Ro Xin wanted to say something, but Tang Ling stopped her with a gaze. He took the big luggage and quickly packed his clothes and the things that he had to bring along, such as the page of Horror Lullaby, the strange dagger that was stabbed into the strange rock, and the two black booklets.
The booklet that Su Siao left for him was the first to be put into his small luggage. As for the booklet that Tang Feng left for him, he hesitated for a while before putting it away. After all, there were still some pages left, and he did not have the time to read them. What if there was some useful information in them?
While Tang Ling was packing, other than the old fox, the other Black Wind guards did not notice or purposely avoided him.
Among the things that Tang Ling took out, only the strange dagger made the old fox squint his eyes. Other than that, he did not show any reaction.
"All the things in the luggage, except for this stone, were sold. Keep the vicious beast meat and sell everything that you and Ro Li need. Don't keep a single piece.
After you get the money, settle down and I'll come for you. "
Tang Ling's order was simple. Since Ro Xin was smart, he did not need to say much.
Selling vicious beast meat? Tang Ling was a big eater, so why didn't he save some for himself? Nevertheless, Ro Xin was smart enough not to ask.
As for the rock, it was something that Tang Ling took out from the temple. Half of it was stuck to the strange dagger and the other half was the rock that Tang Ling mentioned.
Of course, the rock was not for sale.
Ro Xin did not know how precious the rock was, but she did not ask.
"Alright, let's go. We'll see each other again soon. "Tang Ling was very confident in himself.
Ro Xin nodded. Without further ado, she asked Ro Li, who was still hesitating, to carry his backpack and leave.
"But, I want to follow him." Ro Li was a stubborn person.
"Can't you follow him when we meet? Do you have the hobby of being a servant? "Tang Ling had the urge to slap Ro Li.
"Okay then." Ro Li's waist was hurting from Ro Xin's pinching, so he agreed.
He did not understand Tang Ling or his sister, so he had a feeling that they would always find a way.
Ro Xin led Ro Li out of the office. Tang Ling raised a brow and called out to her, "After you get the money, buy the information first. Anything useful about Darkness Port. I mean, anything that can raise your status in Darkness Port. "
"Mm-hmm." Ro Xin nodded.
The old cunning fox's gaze at Tang Ling had a tinge of admiration. This kid sure has a clear mind.
He must have noticed from the Darkness Guidebook that every piece of information in Darkness Port cost money. The Darkness Guidebook that cost 5 Black Wind coins was considered the cheapest beginner's guide, and because of its low price, he refused to divulge any important information.
If Tang Ling came to Darkness Port, he would not be able to gain a foothold without getting some information first.
After everything was settled, Ro Xin left with Ro Li. Tang Ling then turned to the old cunning fox with a helpless expression. "I've signed the contract. Is there anything else?"
The old cunning fox folded the contract and put it in his pocket. He grabbed Tang Ling's arm as if he was afraid that he would run away. He winked at the Black Wind guard captain and said, "It's fine."
"You owe too much money. Let's go now. You have to start working. "
This time, Tang Ling was smart enough not to resist. He did not know what kind of technique the old cunning fox was using, but no matter how hard he tried, his strength would become the old cunning fox's.
Just like that, Tang Ling signed the contract to be a servant for a hundred years out of the blue and was dragged out of the office by the old cunning fox.
Facing the surging crowd at the city gate, the old cunning fox suddenly looked at Tang Ling. "Shall we queue up?"
Fine, I'll queue up! Tang Ling was baffled. What kind of question is that?
However, right after he took a step forward, he was suddenly dragged by a tremendous force towards the tall city gate.
Is the old cunning fox trying to drag me into a wall? Is the old cunning fox's hobby that special?
The moment the thought popped up in Tang Ling's mind, he felt his body leap up from the ground. The old cunning fox dragged him over the 30-meter tall city gate and into the deck area.
Is this fun?
Tang Ling did not expect the old cunning fox to be this wild, yet no one came to stop him.
After they crossed the city gate, before Tang Ling's feet even touched the ground, he was dragged up again and landed on the roof of a building. Then, the old cunning fox dashed towards the south of the deck area.
The wind whistled past Tang Ling's ears. Every single building in the deck area of Darkness Port flashed past his eyes.
So, the deck area of Darkness Port is this beautiful?! All the buildings were completely different from the ones on the mainland.
A lot of marine specialties were used to build the buildings, such as giant seashells, piles of corals, and giant conches. Tang Ling even saw a small building that was built with three giant seashells.
Even if the old cunning fox did not want to, the buildings were built in the shape of marine creatures. Tang Ling was dragged by the old cunning fox as they dashed across the deck. He even saw a restaurant that was built in the shape of a giant lobster.
Even though Tang Ling was reluctant to admit it, he had to admit that he liked the old cunning fox's way of running in a straight line. He skipped over anything that stood in his way and was not restrained by anything.
So, this is Darkness Port? As long as one is powerful enough, they can really do whatever they want. It might seem like a lawless city, but a certain kind of order was carved into their bones!
