2 days later, at night, Tianyuan Bridge Night Market …
The rental carriage stopped in front of the high memorial arch outside Tianyuan Bridge Night Market. The coachman jumped off the carriage and opened the door for the passenger with a humble and flattering smile, "Dear guest, we've arrived at Tianyuan Bridge Night Market …"
As the door of the rental carriage opened, Xia Pingan, who was wearing a decent black robe, a close-fitting silk vest, a snow-white shirt and a silk top hat, got off the carriage elegantly. After glancing at the night market of Tianyuan Bridge which was ablaze with lights, he revealed a smile before throwing a few silver coins to the coachman. "Keep the change …"
"Thank you, sir …" The coachman smiled even more fervently. At the same time, he secretly admired his foresight. Looking at this passenger's clothes, he knew that this passenger was indeed not short of money. He was so generous. "Sir, do you need me to wait for you here?"
"No need, I want to walk around …" Xia Pingan said.
"Okay, take care, dear guest!" After the coachman finished his words, someone came out of the night market and waved towards here. The coachman then got on the carriage and drove it over there.
When he came to Tianyuan Bridge Night Market once again, Xia Pingan became a bit excited at the sight of the surging crowd in the night market.
The last time he came to the Tianyuan Bridge Night Market, he didn't have much money in his pocket. His mood was dampened and he caused trouble. He didn't walk around the night market much. Today, he came here again. Xia Pingan wanted to walk around again and sweep the place clean.
The moment he thought about those realm pearls in the night market, Xia Pingan's heart became pounding.
This was the biggest advantage of Shang Jing City. As resources from all over the world gathered here, as long as one had enough money, one could buy a lot of realm pearls here to improve one's strength.
Realm pearls that were rarely seen in other places could be exchanged for with the most mundane items here.
For Xia Pingan, coming to the night market once again, he felt like having 100,000 strings of cash and riding a crane to Yangzhou.
Right now, Xia Pingan was already thinking about how to get a job in Shang Jing City that could earn money. The Dark Shadow Squad of the Judgement Army could earn money quickly, but it was not easy to make contributions in the Dark Shadow Squad. Furthermore, he was always working with his head on the line. If he had a job that could earn money for a long time, he would not just sit around and eat. In the future, he would not have to worry about this Realm Pearl.
Over the past two days, Xia Pingan mainly stayed in his courtyard. As he monitored that elder of Tang Clan with the help of the Boy of Blessing, he thought about making money. Occasionally, he would go shopping outside and buy something.
Xia Pingan originally thought that he could see and hear what the Boy of Blessing saw and heard at any time. However, over the past two days, he slowly realized that what he could see and hear was not up to him at all. It seemed that it was up to the Boy of Blessing to decide.
Although the Boy of Blessing was his summoned creature and had a faint telepathic connection with him, that little guy was very naughty and could not be commanded at all. Xia Pingan only felt that the little guy was staring at that elder of Tang Clan, but the image in his mind would only appear occasionally.
At first, Xia Pingan felt a little uncomfortable. However, soon, Xia Pingan felt that it was quite good. If the images of other people's lives appeared in his mind at all times, and he even stared at that elder of Tang Clan going to the toilet and picking his toes, that would be too disgusting. He might even suffer from schizophrenia.
That little guy was very clear about what information was important. Therefore, the information it sent back was not useless.
For example, on the first day, that elder of Tang Clan stayed in the Guild Hall for the whole day. He just sat in his room and read a book. That little guy only sent back a few images at intervals, so that Xia Pingan could roughly know what that elder of Tang Clan was doing, what kind of books he was reading, and what kind of food he was eating.
During the day, the elder of Tang Clan went out in a carriage again. That little guy followed him all the way and directly sat on the head of the elder of Tang Clan, participating in all the activities.
Xia Pingan saw that the elder of Tang Clan went to an auction house, a newspaper office, and a trading company in Shang Jing City. He visited several people who had business dealings with Tang Clan and had two meals.
Through the Boy of Blessing, Xia Pingan saw all the scenes of the meeting between the elder of Tang Clan and those people. He found that the two sides were just discussing some business cooperation matters. There was also a pure relationship between them. There was nothing unusual.
Tonight, the elder of Tang Clan returned to the Guild Hall to rest again. That little guy did not send any more images. Xia Pingan came to the Tianyuan Bridge Night Market.
The Tianyuan Bridge Night Market was as lively as last time.
However, there were some differences.
Today, there seemed to be a little more policemen here than last time. Those policemen were all wearing police uniforms. Each of their eyes swept over the people coming and going in the night market. They seemed to be quite vigilant, as if they were looking for someone.
Xia Pingan had not walked far in the night market when two policemen came over to ask, "Mister, have you seen these people before?"
The fat policeman who asked the question took out a wanted poster as he spoke. Xia Pingan looked at it carefully.
F * ck!
The first person on the wanted poster was Xia Pingan himself.
The top of the wanted poster was not a photo, but a portrait of Xia Pingan. The portrait was 90% similar to Xia Pingan, and Xia Pingan's name was on the list.
When he first rented the apartment, he had left his real name. As long as he found the landlord, it would not be difficult for the police to find his name.
Apart from himself, there were two other people on the wanted poster. The other two wanted people were the two Two-Sun summoners who had brought people to the apartment to ambush him that night.
Those two people were bounty hunters. One was called Pang Tong, and the other was called Deng Shaohua. He did not expect them to be wanted as well.
Looking at his portrait, Xia Pingan's expression did not change. Instead, he asked curiously, "Are these people in cahoots? What did they do?"
"Yes, these people are in cahoots!" The policeman probably did not understand what was going on. He only nodded his head mechanically and replied in a serious manner, "These people are related to a very vicious murder case. If you can provide useful clues to the police, you can get a reward of 10,000 gold coins from the victim's family!"
"Wow, 10,000 gold coins, this is not a small amount. I think if I could see these people, I would definitely not miss this opportunity to make money!"
"You can keep this wanted poster. If you find anything, you can contact us!" The policeman was like a person who was advertising on the street. He directly handed the wanted poster to Xia Pingan.
After chatting with the policeman for a while, Xia Pingan left. At the same time, Xia Pingan also knew that Sun Hao's disappearance should have been discovered by the Sun family.
After three days, no matter how slow the Sun family was, they would have reacted. If Sun Hao was kidnapped and Sun Hao was still alive, then Sun Hao had been missing for three days. The kidnappers would have at least contacted the Sun family to ask for a ransom. In these three days, the Sun family did not receive any news. There was no news of Sun Hao, so the possibility of Sun Hao meeting with an accident was very obvious.
Sun Hao's uncle was one of the higher-ups of the Shang Jing police, so it was not surprising that the wanted poster came out so quickly. What surprised Xia Pingan was that he did not expect the two bounty hunters hired by Sun Hao that night to also be wanted.
Bounty hunters were all people who licked blood on the blade. That night, Sun Hao and them parted on bad terms, and in the end, they were at daggers drawn. The Sun family naturally had reason to suspect that they would take revenge on Sun Hao — bounty hunters who were forced to the point of not being able to get paid harbored resentment and could do anything.
Hehe, they deserved it!
Thinking of the faces of the two wanted bounty hunters at this moment, Xia Pingan's mood was as comfortable as eating iced bayberries in the hottest days of the summer. He almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. Those guys were really unlucky. First, they schemed against him and caused him to suffer a double loss. Not to mention that they were cheated by Sun Hao and sold their lives for money, in the end, they were actually wanted by the Sun family and became wanted criminals in the Shang Dynasty.
The first time Sun Hao saw him was at the Tianyuan Bridge night market. At the same time, this was the favorite place of the bounty hunters, so the police came here to look for clues.
His portrait was quite handsome …
Xia Pingan glanced at his portrait and muttered in his heart. He folded the wanted poster and put it in his jacket pocket.
The night market was still lively and bustling with people.
Soon, Xia Pingan was attracted by the Realm Beads sold on the street. His entire body was moved and his eyes lit up. He was ready for a big fight.
"Assassin Realm Bead, there is an Assassin Realm Bead here …" A voice from a nearby stall attracted Xia Pingan's attention.
Assassin Realm Bead? What kind of Realm Bead is this?
Hearing this voice, Xia Pingan directly walked over and squeezed into a stall on the street.
The owner of that stall was a woman in her twenties with a sharp face and a bunch of small braids. That woman was wearing short leather armor and a short knife hanging on her waist. She didn't look like someone to be trifled with. On that woman's stall, there was only a Realm Bead emitting a faint red light.
Xia Pingan looked at that Realm Bead and saw a line of golden characters in Xiaozhuan flickering in and out of the Realm Bead — — Tian Guang Lun Yong.
Xia Pingan was too familiar with this story. Jing Ke was a talent discovered by Tian Guang. Tian Guang was an amazing person. His vision for people was unquestionable.
"What a pity. This Realm Bead could summon assassins. However, it could only summon beginner assassins …" A person on the side looked at that Realm Bead and shook his head regretfully.
"What's so pitiful about it? Beginner assassins are already very powerful. They could kill people without leaving a trace. Additionally, if one could get the Realm Bead, the beginner assassins could also level up. The higher they level up, the more powerful they would be. Additionally, this Realm Bead wouldn't pose any danger to their lives. Even without the assistance of immortal crystals, the success rate would still be 25% …"
"It costs 1100 gold coins. It's too expensive …" That person who shook his head regretfully added.
"Of course, this Realm Bead wouldn't pose any danger to one's life even if the fusion failed. Of course, it's expensive …"
Seeing the onlookers gossiping, the woman selling the Realm Beads grew impatient. She waved her hand and said, "If you want to buy it, then buy it. If you don't want to buy it, then scram. Don't stop me from doing business …"
