"Sir, are you really going to pawn these things?"
The shopkeeper of the pawnshop looked at Xia Pingan through the window as if he was looking at a robber.
That's right. How could a normal person take out so many things at once? Those things looked like they belonged to murderers and robbers. Especially those gold headdresses, they looked like they were obtained through shady means.
Since Xia Pingan took out those sabers, swords, guns, bullets and gold headdresses from his space warehouse, two "security guards" of the pawnshop silently appeared in the business hall. Their four eyes were fixed on Xia Pingan. One of the "security guards" had obvious waves of Divine Power, which meant that he was trying to tell Xia Pingan — Brother, don't try anything funny. I'm also here to help you.
There was probably no such thing as gun control in Dawan City. Just now, Xia Pingan had seen several gun shops on the way here. Those shops sold gunpowder, guns and ammunition of various lengths.
There were also many shops selling cold weapons.
Many pedestrians on the street carried sabers and guns.
"Yes, pawn them all!" Xia Pingan said directly, "Shopkeeper, name your price …"
"These sabers, swords and pistols are a bit worn out. Their color is not very good. These gold headdresses can only be used by summoners. I have to melt them again. How about 46 gold coins?" The shopkeeper stared at Xia Pingan with his small eyes. He had already decided that if Xia Pingan bargained, he could persuade him to add two more gold coins.
"Okay, 46 gold coins it is!" Xia Pingan said directly, not bothering to haggle.
There were several types of human currencies in this world: gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins. These three types of currencies were called agreement currencies. They were the currency system agreed upon by all the banks in this world. The agreement was that the purity and weight of these three types of currencies were exactly the same. Although the currency patterns were different, the purity and weight of these three types of currencies were exactly the same. Therefore, it was convenient for trade.
The shopkeeper took out 46 gold coins from behind the counter and gave them to Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan weighed them in his hand. Each gold coin weighed more than 50 grams. On some gold coins, there were images of the castles of the Tang family and Dawan City. On some gold coins, there were images of a woman with two full moons above her head. The latter was the image of the Moon Goddess.
Xia Pingan reached out his hand and swept all the gold coins into his space-teleportation equipment.
Then, Xia Pingan directly left the pawnshop.
…
The moment he walked out, Xia Pingan felt that he was being stared at. Therefore, he kept his composure. He took the money and continued to move on to the next place.
This time, Xia Pingan.... were clothes..
On the street, he saw the puppet models in various clothes and a pair of scissors on the signboard. It was a ready-made clothing store.
Xia Pingan chose a large ready-made clothing store. After taking a look around, he bought a lot of clothes. After exiting the ready-made clothing store, Xia Pingan went to a bathhouse in the downtown. When he came out of the bathhouse, it was already noon. Xia Pingan looked refreshed from head to toe.
After that, Xia Pingan went to a restaurant in the city. After having lunch, he went straight to the train station of Dawan City. He bought a train that was about to leave Dawan City. Without saying anything, he got on the train at the station and squeezed into the crowded train carriage. He took the train and left Dawan City.
After boarding the train, the feeling of being stared at disappeared for a short while. However, it didn't take long for it to return.
Xia Pingan stared at the people boarding the train. There were all kinds of people on the train. There were both men and women. He couldn't tell who was watching him.
This meant that the strength of the person who was watching him was far beyond his imagination. Even if the person was watching him, he wouldn't be able to detect it.
The train slowly left the platform and headed north.
The train sped along the tracks, its speed gradually reaching over 80 km/h.
The destination of the train was the Divine Nation of the Moon God Sect in the north. It would pass by more than ten territories and cities of the Moon God Sect along the way. It would take more than twenty days to travel from Dawan City to the Divine Nation of the Moon God Sect.
"Ticket check, ticket check …" The attendant on the train began to check the tickets.
After checking the tickets, the peddlers selling tea, melon seeds, and cigarettes came and hawked along the train. Xia Pingan spent a silver coin to buy a cup of tea.
The tea on the train wasn't cheap. However, he didn't have to pay to refill the tea at any time.
If he drank too much tea, he would naturally have to go to the toilet.
There was a toilet on the train!
Before the sky turned dark, Xia Pingan went to the toilet twice. Each time, he would come back in two or three minutes.
The train sped along. Before he knew it, the sky had turned dark.
Outside the train was an endless wilderness and hills.
After having dinner in the restaurant, Xia Pingan returned to his seat. After sitting for a while, he got up and went to the toilet again.
This time, as soon as he entered the toilet of the train, Xia Pingan closed the door and opened the window of the toilet. Then, he slipped out of the window of the speeding train like a slippery loach. He leaped out of the train and landed in the wilderness outside. Then, he laid down on the weeds that were half the height of a person outside the train track.
As soon as the train left, Xia Pingan got up and ran towards the mountains in the distance. His figure disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
… …
Five minutes later, a skinny figure wearing a long black robe with a ferocious bull head mask on his face appeared at the spot where Xia Pingan had jumped off the train. His mouth emitted a low and deep roar as the eyes behind the mask flashed with a fierce light. Immediately, he chased in the direction where Xia Pingan had disappeared with a lightning-like speed.
… …
The night was getting darker.
Several hours later, in a valley in the endless wilderness, the man wearing a black robe and a ox-head mask finally discovered Xia Pingan's rapidly escaping figure.
"Boy, you're really cunning. You actually found out that I was watching you. Let's see where you're going to run to …" The figure wearing a black robe descended from the sky. His voice was as low as a ghost's howl. He stopped in front of Xia Pingan and pointed at Xia Pingan. A black smoke, like a rope, flew towards Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan, who was running, stopped and smiled at the figure wearing a black robe. He was not nervous at all.
Just as the figure wearing a black robe felt a little strange, the black smoke-like rope touched Xia Pingan. Xia Pingan's figure shook a little, then turned into smoke and dispersed.
"Illusion, playing with the warlord with the fire beacon …" The figure wearing a black robe suddenly roared. He did not expect that after chasing for half the night, he would be played by a boy in the end.
He had lost a lot of face.
The point was that he had been distracted by the illusion for such a long time. That boy had already escaped to god knows where.
The figure wearing a black robe flew into the air and scanned the surroundings.
Under the night sky, the wilderness was vast and there were hills everywhere. There was not a single person to be found.
… …
When Xia Pingan's illusion was broken, Xia Pingan, who was hiding in a tree hole in the woods 50 miles away, suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes flashed with astonishment … …
There was a mysterious connection between the summoner and the illusion. Not only could Xia Pingan control the direction of movement of the illusory figure, but he could also sense what the illusory figure saw and heard.
Although the figure wearing a black robe and a bull's head and a devil's face mask did not show his face, Xia Pingan immediately thought of the black-robed elder of the Tang Clan.
Why would that elder of the Tang Clan want to harm him? He had only met him once, and there were no other grievances between them.
Xia Pingan did not know the reason behind this, but he was clear that wolves did not need the consent and understanding of the sheep to eat them. Everything in this world was like this.
Under the protection of the green protective boundary, Xia Pingan hid in the tree hole for five days. After five days, after confirming that the elder of the Tang Clan had left, Xia Pingan drilled out of the tree hole. After identifying the direction, he rushed towards the north.
