Chapter 233 Flea Market

Su Xiaofan played with the new toy of the space bag for a whole day. He was going to try again if a living thing could be put into the space bag when he had the opportunity.

The next day, Su Xiaofan wore a leather jacket so that he could put everything in the space bag and then just pretend to take things out of his pockets.

Green Island in winter has a slow pace of life, and few people go out before ten o'clock in the morning.

When Frank came to pick up Su Xiaofan, it was already close to 12 noon. Business has been good recently, so he hired an employee to help take care of the coffee shop.

"Come on, Tom, I think you can get what you want."

Frank drove the car with excitement on his face, "Our free market on Green Island attracts many tourists every year. By the way, it seems that two Chinese people came yesterday."

"I hope so, but I'm not interested in seal teeth or anything like that."

Su Xiaofan's sense of expectation is not too strong. If there was no matter about the spiritual stone, he would not bother to go to the trading market at all.

The foreigner had little history, and the only things he could bring out were whale bones, seal teeth and other items, but these things were worthless in Su Xiaofan's eyes.

As for the two Chinese people coming to Green Island, Su Xiaofan was even less interested.

Isn't it normal for Chinese people to appear on Green Island? In the past ten years, the number of Chinese people traveling abroad has definitely accounted for the largest number in the world. Chinese people can appear even in very unpopular tourist attractions.

"This is our Green Island City Hall, and the transaction will be held here!"

More than half an hour later, Frank drove the car to a small town and parked outside the largest building in the town.

There were many cars parked outside the building, mostly buses. They obviously attracted a lot of tourists, and they were the main force in the trading market.

"It's kind of like a flea market."

It looked very quiet from the outside, but as soon as Su Xiaofan walked into the city hall, he immediately felt the excitement.

At least seven to eight hundred people poured into the hall, which was hundreds of square meters in size. I wonder if all the people on Green Island arrived here today.

In fact, flea markets abroad are just like those practicing stalls on the periphery of domestic antique markets. Seeing this scene, Su Xiaofan really felt a little warm.

"Tom, let's go and have a look at my stall."

Frank excitedly pulled Su Xiaofan and squeezed to a stall more than ten meters away from the gate.

"Look, this is the purest handicraft carved from whale bones and sea lion teeth.

You see, only the most majestic male sea lions can have such long teeth."

Frank enthusiastically introduced the items on his stall to Su Xiaofan.

Not to mention, the business was very good. When they first came here, a tourist took out fifty dollars and bought a pair of small objects carved from whale bone.

"Okay, Tom, I have to take care of business, you can do it yourself."

Seeing that the man at the stall was very busy, Frank quickly jumped behind the stall, picked up his handicrafts and started selling them.

"Okay." Su Xiaofan nodded, but returned to the gate.

Su Xiaofan is not bragging about shopping at street stalls. All the people here combined do not have as much experience as him.

If you want to find something good at a street stall, you must first not miss any stall. No one knows which stall will have good stuff.

The flea market on Green Island sells a variety of things, but most of them are local specialties, which are hard to see outside.

Su Xiaofan just had a playful attitude and looked at the stalls one by one, but there was nothing worth selling.

"Huh? Are there people selling meteorites here?"

When Su Xiaofan walked to the back of the trading market, his eyes were fixed on a stall but he couldn't take his eyes away.

There is almost no one in front of this stall, because the stalls are filled with some inconspicuous stones or metals, which are far from comparable to those exquisite handicrafts.

But Su Xiaofan recognized it at a glance. The stall sold meteorites, even though they were just ordinary meteorites.

However, it was not these meteorites that caught Su Xiaofan's attention, but something that looked like broken metal nearby.

[Energy fragments can be absorbed. Can they be absorbed? 】

The words that appeared in Su Xiaofan's mind were something he had never seen before. This was the fourth absorbable object that Su Xiaofan encountered, in addition to meteorites, magic weapons and Yin stones.

"Energy fragments, what are they?"

Su Xiaofan knelt down and checked. There were only four pieces of metal called energy fragments on the stall.

Su Xiaofan thought it was metal because the surface of these energy fragments showed a metallic luster. Each piece was only the size of a baby's palm, and was dark and inconspicuous.

"Hey man, what are you selling? Are they meteorites?"

Su Xiaofan raised his head and said hello to the boss behind the stall. The boss was very young. He looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. He didn't know which kid came from to set up a stall to earn extra money.

"Of course, all you see are meteorites."

The young man was surprised that Su Xiaofan, an Oriental who could speak Green Island language, was surprised. You should know that even many people from Damai Country could not speak their local language.

"How do you sell these meteorites? Where did you get them?"

Su Xiaofan said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious, has there ever been a meteor shower on Green Island?"

"you do not know?"

The young man said: "The largest meteorite in the world once fell on the westernmost side of Green Island. It is said that it fell tens of millions of years ago. The crater has now been submerged by sea water."

"Okay, but that meteorite has nothing to do with the meteorite you are selling, right?"

Su Xiaofan shrugged, "Man, my name is Tom, how should I call you?"

Su Xiaofan knew that if he wanted to get acquainted with someone in the shortest possible time, he must first know the other person's name.

"Hey, Tom, just call me Victor."

Victor may have never been friends with someone like this before. He felt like he was respected, and he immediately became happy.

"I dug these meteorites from the island. I thought they were very unique, so I took them and sold them."

Victor spread his hands and said helplessly: "It's a pity that no one knows the goods, and they don't even want to ask about the price."

"Then let me open it for you."

Su Xiaofan pointed at the energy fragments and said with a smile: "Victor, how do you sell these meteorites?"

"Them? Fifty... No, Tom, you are my friend, thirty dollars is enough. I mean thirty dollars are all yours."

It was obviously the first time for Victor to set up a stall, and he was seriously inexperienced. The more familiar he was with the knife, the faster he should be, but the simple Victor actually gave Su Xiaofan a discount.

"Well, my friend, I think the price is reasonable."

Su Xiaofan put his hand into his wallet, and with a sudden movement of consciousness, one of the beautiful knives placed in the space bag suddenly disappeared.

When Su Xiaofan took out his hand, there was already an extra one hundred US dollar bill in his hand.

"Oh, I don't have any change. Do you have anything else?"

Su Xiaofan handed the hundred-dollar knife to Victor, and at the same time put away the four energy fragments, pretending to put them into his jacket, but in fact they had already been put into the space bag.

"And this thing, I think it looks very good, I want to keep it for myself."

After accepting the hundred US dollars handed over by Su Xiaofan, Victor hesitated for a moment, but still took out another object from his bag.

"Huh? What is this?"

Su Xiaofan took the thing that was about the same size as the energy fragment. It was a bit like a badge.

On one side of this badge-like object, there was a pattern engraved on it that even Su Xiaofan could not understand.

At first glance, there is nothing special about this badge.

But when Su Xiaofan used his spiritual sense to investigate, his face couldn't help but turn pale.

Because just after Su Xiaofan's spiritual consciousness penetrated into the badge, his spiritual consciousness disappeared. If Su Xiaofan hadn't withdrawn it quickly, the badge seemed to have continued to absorb Su Xiaofan's spiritual consciousness.

[???The system is incomplete, the energy is insufficient, and it is impossible to detect!]

And when Su Xiaofan used the repair system to look at the badge, the repair system, which had never disappointed Su Xiaofan, actually gave three question marks and a message of insufficient energy.

“How can I sell this small brand?”

Su Xiaofan raised his head and said, "I like it very much, can you give it to me?"

He said he wanted to buy it, and that was fine if Victor was willing to sell it, but even if Victor didn't sell it, Su Xiaofan had to get this brand.

Since the establishment of the repair system, there has been nothing that the system cannot see, so the badge-shaped brand in front of you is most likely a more advanced existence than the system.

Of course, Su Xiaofan's repair system is also incomplete. It has only been updated to more than ten percent now. If all repairs and updates can be completed, it should not be worse than this brand.

"I sold it to you for $20, Tom, do you think it's okay?"

Victor thought for a moment and said: "I want to buy something and need a little money, otherwise I will give it to you, Tom, you are my friend!"

"Victor, since we are friends, then I will buy this brand for seventy dollars."

Su Xiaofan winked at Tom, "Even if I sponsor my friend to buy what he needs, Victor, you can't refuse your friend's help!"

Whether it was the energy fragments or this small brand, they were very precious things to Su Xiaofan. If Su Xiaofan took advantage of the children, he would feel embarrassed.

"Well, Tom, when I buy my electric drill, I will definitely invite you to dig for treasures."

Victor nodded happily and explained his purpose of making money.

"Baby, are you referring to these things?"

Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he immediately reacted.

"That's right, but it won't happen until six months later."

Victor said with some distress: "It's a polar night environment there now, and the temperature is really too low. There's no way I can go there."

"There's no rush then. Maybe I'll be here again in six months."

Su Xiaofan smiled and took out the phone, "Maybe we can add a contact information, and I will accept your invitation then!"

"Okay, Tom, you are my first Oriental friend!" Victor imitated an adult and exchanged phone numbers with Su Xiaofan.

"Well, my friend, let's see you later!"

Su Xiaofan shook hands with Victor, which made the little guy puff up his chest again. Only adults would shake hands and say goodbye.

"How much repair value can energy fragments increase?"

After Su Xiaofan left Victor's stall, he walked directly outside. There was nothing in the city hall that attracted him.

Now Su Xiaofan can't wait to know the value of these energy fragments. Perhaps they can become a recharge channel for repair value in addition to meteorites.

Just when Su Xiaofan was about to leave the city hall, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a group of people poured in in the cold wind.

"Huh? Dong doesn't understand?"

When Su Xiaofan saw the two tall and round people in the front, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to meet someone he knew thousands of miles away.

"Eh? Su Xiaofan?!"

Dong Buzhu, who was walking directly opposite, also saw Su Xiaofan, and his face was also dull. The chance of meeting an acquaintance in a place where birds don't lay eggs is really very small.

"Why are you here?!" they both asked at the same time.

Su Xiaofan remembered what Frank said about the arrival of two Chinese people, but he didn't expect that the ones who came were actually Dong and Bai Ye.

"Okay, let's talk somewhere else."

Su Xiaofan looked at Dong Dabin who was behind Dong Wanshuang and said, "Uncle Dong, where do you live? Can you return it? Come live with me these days."

"You...hey, don't call me uncle, I don't deserve it either, do you understand?"

Dong Dabin looked at Su Xiaofan with very complicated eyes. Although the Qinling restricted area was blocked by relevant departments, well-informed people like Dong Dabin still knew some inside information.

"Dad, what did you say?"

Dong Dong didn't understand, but he didn't know about the Qinling restricted area. He was a little dissatisfied when he heard his father's words, "Xiaofan is my buddy, don't I have to call you uncle? Is it possible for me to call you uncle Xiaofan?"

Su Xiaofan was a little dumbfounded by these two men, especially because he was not used to Dong Dabin's catchphrases.

After saying a good sentence, you have to add a sentence about "do you understand", which sounds very embarrassing.

"You bastard, you still got an advantage by calling me uncle."

Dong Dabin slapped his son on the head, "I have to call you uncle."

"Oh, let's discuss it according to our age!"

Su Xiaofan gave a bitter smile, waved his hand and said, "You are older than me, so I call you Uncle Dong, as you don't understand that we are still brothers."

"That's okay too."

Dong Dabin nodded when he heard this. He was a son of old age. He was already in his fifties or sixties when he gave birth to Dong Wanshuang. Now he is even seventy or eighty years old. It is really embarrassing to call him Uncle Su Xiaofan.

"Where do you live? Do you have any luggage to pick up?"

Su Xiaofan realized that this was really not the place to talk, so he immediately said: "You guys wait for me, I will find someone to take us back."

Turning around and returning to the market, Su Xiaofan pulled Frank out and sold him $10,000, saying that two people would live with him in the next few days.

As for Dong Dabin and his son, Su Xiaofan didn't ask much. The domestic cultivators who came to Green Island naturally wanted to go to the Glacier Restricted Area.

Seeing the thick stack of Franklin, Frank naturally said nothing, drove the three of them back to the black hotel where Dong Dabin and his son lived, picked up their luggage, and then sent them back to the wooden villa.

"Xiao Fan, you can enjoy eating outside. It's much better here than ours."

Dong didn't know that he and his father had come to Damai to join a Green Island tour group. The place they lived in was less than eight square meters, so it was very frustrating for the two of them to be squeezed together.

After arriving at the wooden villa, Dong Bubu walked around upstairs and downstairs several times excitedly, "This fireplace is nice. I wonder if I can get some firewood to have a barbecue in the house?"

"Let's wait until the restricted area before eating barbecue."

Su Xiaofan shook his head and looked at the two men, "Uncle Dong, you want to enter the restricted area, right? Why did you choose to come at this time and bring your understanding with you?"

With Dong Dabin's cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, there would be no problem in entering the restricted area of ​​the glacier, and he would have some ability to protect himself.

But Dong is far behind if he doesn't understand. He is only in the middle stage of Qi training, but his foundation is relatively solid.

Moreover, the time to enter the penalty area is not very good now. The camp battle is about to break out, maybe this year, maybe next year, in short, it will happen within the next three to five years.

The three arctic foxes that ambush at the entrance to the restricted area last time sent a bad message. The suppression of the living space of cultivators by extraordinary creatures is getting bigger and bigger.

Fortunately, the three arctic fox Chaofan were killed by Su Xiaofan and Mr. Yang. In addition, the confrontation between the five cultivators and Chaofan later gave them a great shock and temporarily eased the situation in the restricted area.

But for Dong Dongbang, the Glacier Forbidden Zone is still too dangerous for him. Not to mention that the spiritual energy level is relatively high and he cannot refine it. Even he cannot withstand the severe cold in the restricted zone.

Dong Dabin hesitated for a moment, then said: "Xiaofan, there have been some changes in the country recently, and I can't bring you here. Do you understand..."

"Uncle Dong, I don't understand!"

Su Xiaofan was really speechless about Dong Dabin's mantra, "Let me speak for myself if you don't understand. Uncle Dong, if you don't change this problem, stop talking when you get to the Glacier Restricted Area, otherwise I'm afraid you'll be beaten to death!"

"Ahem, I can't help it, I really can't help it, you know..."

Dong Dabin shut his mouth tightly in the middle of his words. He also knew how hateful his words were. If he hadn't been an elder in the Dong family, he would have been beaten at least three times a day.

"I don't understand, tell me, what's going on in the country?"

Su Xiaofan has been out for a few months now, and he really hasn't paid much attention to domestic affairs.

"More than two months ago, I discovered that when I enter the restricted area, I no longer need to wear a magic weapon. I can directly absorb the spiritual energy in the restricted area and refine it."

Dong Wanshuang was much more reliable than his father, "My cultivation has been growing rapidly recently and I will soon enter the late stage of Qi training, so my father brought me to see my ancestor and wanted me to practice in the restricted area of ​​the glacier.

"

"Has the spiritual energy in the country changed?" Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then took out his cell phone and called his sister.

Hearing the blind tone on the phone, Su Xiaofan called Mo Zixuan again, but the tone was still blind.

Jing Shizhen's phone number and Lu'an's phone number were also unreachable, but Hualong's phone number was connected, but the call was not answered in person, and you had to make an appointment if you wanted to talk.

"Are you all going into the restricted area to practice?"

Su Xiaofan put down the phone, looked at Dong Wuyi and said: "The Qinling Mountains have been conquered. You can go there. The environment in the restricted area of ​​the glacier is very harsh."

"I...my dad said I deserve a beating. No, it's because I lack experience, so I have to find a place with a harsh environment to hone me."

Dong Wanshuang accidentally told the truth and glanced at his father secretly, with an expression on his face that he was worse off than dead.
