Aaron went out in the morning and enjoyed a sumptuous lunch at a discount at the Witch's House.
In the afternoon, I went to see a circus show. I had nothing to do all day, which fit the image of a rich kid in the minds of the landlady and the people around me.
In the evening, he went to visit Mr. Clark Das.
"Put it on."
Clark Dass handed over a black hooded robe. On top of the soft black robe, there was a black iron mask that could cover the area above the mouth.
"This is a party with a hidden identity. The participants may be esoteric cultists and evil believers, or even spies from the Bureau of Investigation. It is not safe. You need to be careful in everything."
He warned again.
"I'm still somewhat confident in my skills." Aaron patted the holster and sword on his waist.
"It's best not to have a conflict... Unless the other party takes action first, you will definitely be listed as persona non grata next time."
Clark Das personally drove the carriage to the Ywell Bridge area.
This place is right on the edge of the mother river. When you look up, you can see the steel bridge that spans the east and west.
The surrounding buildings are all in the shape of shacks. Two families share the same wall. A large number of houses of different heights are crowded together. Various small alleys extend in all directions, and homeless people and beggars are not uncommon.
Obviously, this is a slum area, where the patrol police have the least investment.
There are even rumors that those black dogs would not dare to enter such a place for inspection unless there are more than ten people together and armed with firearms.
'The flow of people is complex and the terrain is convenient, making it easy to conceal your identity and escape at any time!'
Aaron looked at his surroundings and couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Clark Das parked his carriage outside the Ewell Bridge area, and the two walked into the area, walking through a series of narrow, stinking alleys, and finally came to a gray and unremarkable building.
Clark took a step forward and knocked on the iron ring nailed to the wooden door.
Snapped!
A small window above the wooden door was opened, revealing a pair of alert eyes.
"it's me!"
Clark Das was wearing a gray robe and a white tin mask, and said in a hoarse voice: "I also brought a new friend."
I don’t know how the person behind the wooden door identified it. After a few seconds, the wooden door opened, revealing a hunchbacked man behind it.
His back was stooped and deformed, and the eyes and nose on his face were extremely out of proportion, as if they had been randomly made of mud.
If you go out at night, you will definitely be scared to death.
Aaron cursed in his heart, took the lantern from the other party, and walked down the corridor with Clark Dass.
Not long after, a basement appeared in his eyes, surrounded by iron candlesticks with candles burning on them.
In the center of the basement, there is a round table with more than twenty chairs around it, some of which are already occupied.
They were all hidden, and Aaron could only judge the gender from some appearances, which may not be accurate.
After hanging the lantern on the hook on the wall, he sat down with Clark Das and waited quietly.
During this period, I also received a lot of scrutiny.
I don't know how much time passed, but when more than half of the chairs were occupied by people, a man in white robes carrying a silver candlestick walked into the secret room.
"The party has begun, and I am the host - Sir!"
The man in white robe said elegantly, placed the silver candlestick on the round table, took out a small metal bottle from his arms, and immersed the liquid inside into the flame drop by drop.
A vague fragrance suddenly spread around, causing the shadows on the wall to become a little blurry.
Aaron looked at Clark Das's posture, which had not changed at all, and understood that this should be the beginning of the program, sitting still as well.
At the same time, he smelled a strange and rich fragrance.
Under the influence of this incense, the spirit in his body became slightly excited.
"I named this incense 'Rolanda'. It can harmonize our soul and body, making it easier for us to enter meditation. For ordinary people, this can make them more likely to be hypnotized and have a higher probability of falling into dreams.
Big increase..."
Mr. Sir's magnetic voice came: "This is also the product I brought today, a potion costs 5 pounds! I brought ten copies in total!"
'It seems that this 'Sir' is a pharmacist?'
Aaron wondered in his mind.
At this time, 'Jazz' looked at Aaron: "Our Mr. Knowledge has also brought a new friend. Well, according to the rules, you can give yourself a code name, and make a transaction first, and tell your
To meet your needs, or to purchase items, or to issue commissions..."
Aaron stood up, glanced around, and said in a disguised voice: "'Sword,' my name is 'Sword'!"
This is the code name he had thought of before.
"I have nothing to sell, but I want to buy some things, such as knowledge about you Si Sui, such as... some spiritual materials, and I want to be biased towards 'Yao'. I can pay with gold pounds, or I can exchange it with knowledge.
"
After he finished speaking, he sat down.
According to Clark, after everyone has spoken, if there is intention, a note will be passed over, and then they will go to a more private room to discuss the transaction.
This was also for the sake of secrecy, so Aaron did not take out the secret message and the human skin carelessly, but prepared to show it to the real buyers, so that the confidentiality would be higher.
After Aaron, it was Clark Das' turn.
He coughed and chuckled: "I am still the same as before, unlimited acquisition of hidden historical knowledge and items rich in historical flavor..."
This seems to be related to the 'secret' path, but I don't know if it is a ritual requirement or other special needs.
After waiting for Clark, a petite woman began to speak: "I...I need a charm that can expel evil spirits..."
Aaron watched with cold eyes and found that most of these requests were for spiritual materials, spells, secret transmissions, etc.
As for what is being sold, it is even more diverse, mixed with some extremely complicated and weird things, such as the bone meal of a three-year-old baby, the corpse soaked in honey, etc. No matter how you look at it, it is an evil trade that should be cracked down by the authorities.
However, there are some that are relatively normal.
For example, a strong man named "Beast" claimed that he had obtained a treasure map, which may involve an ancient ruins. He wanted to find a few friends to explore it. Anyone who is interested can contact him.
But according to Clark, such exploration operations are often extremely dangerous.
Aaron estimated that Clark definitely didn't want to go out with the expedition team. He would prefer to wait until the other party's exploration was successful and purchase the items of interest at the party.
