"Teacher Ma, I may have gotten into trouble again."
Zheng Hong found Ma Minlong with a panicked expression.
"what happened again?"
With a faint smile in Ma Minlong's eyes, he came to Zheng Hong and suddenly hugged her into his arms.
Zheng Hong exclaimed subconsciously, then quickly looked around, and then said angrily: "Teacher Ma, this is in the academy, please be careful."
"Even in the Academy, I don't need to pay attention to propriety."
Ma Minlong pinched it with a smile, and then said: "You just said you were in trouble again. What did you mean?"
Only then did Zheng Hong remember the purpose of her visit and said quickly: "Bai Ruozhu didn't come to class some time ago.
I thought she was deliberately showing off to me. Someone warned me, but I didn't take it seriously.
Just now, I heard rumors that Bai Ruozhu and four students from the first-level college were detained by the ‘Luo Xing Black Market’.”
"Luo Xing black market?
There seems to be a shadow of the Kong family behind it."
Ma Minlong frowned slightly, and then said: "Since you know that you are being detained, just go over and get the person back.
The other party would not dare to harm the lives of the academy disciples in the Holy City."
"But in terms of my dereliction of duty... Instructor Hua has deducted my salary for a year before. If it happens again this time, I'm afraid..." Zheng Hong said with an ugly face.
"As long as I'm here, just say it. If no one is killed, it's not a big deal."
Ma Minlong smiled lightly.
"But Bai Ruozhu has a different identity..." Zheng Hong hesitated.
"Different identities?
What is the difference?
I remember that among the students in our Guiyi Academy, there is no background that even us should be afraid of."
Ma Minlong said doubtfully.
"She, like Teacher Su, is from the lower world, and they seem to be familiar with each other in the lower world.
If Teacher Su uses this matter to retaliate against me..." Zheng Hong whispered.
"Su Han?"
Ma Minlong frowned, then slowly relaxed his brows, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
He was a little stunned.
Those few academy disciples were detained, probably because they were implicated by Su Han.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious."
Ma Minlong smiled lightly and said: "Now that you know everything, Su Han should go to the Luo Xing black market, right?
Let's go over and have a look, maybe there will be a good show."
Go there together?
Zheng Hong was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Ma Minlong had already set off, she had no choice but to follow him.
Now that she had offended Su Han, she could only rely on Ma Minlong in the academy.
Although the Dharma Master of the Academy does not have the privilege of protecting his subordinates, he himself is not required to do many forced tasks.
Maybe once every seven or eight years, maybe once every ten years.
She didn't want to be pressured to leave the Guiyi Academy. The teacher positions in the other academy were even rarer. She had no connections and no backers, so she couldn't get a job at all.
...The holy city is very large, the water is very deep, and there are three religions and nine streams. When there is day, there will be night. This has been the same law since ancient times.
Even in the Holy City of Beicang Mountain, there are some dark gray areas, and the black market is one of them.
The black market here is different from the black market in the lower world. In addition to selling various cultivation resources, it can also handle some assassination business.
The targets are all below the Dharma form, but occasionally, the Dharma form will be the target, but as long as you cover it carefully, there are various ways to kill people, and you will not be restricted by the rules.
For example, if you spend a sum of money and arrange a mandatory mission, you can start it at will outside Beicang Mountain.
In every black market, there is also a Colosseum. Some people voluntarily stepped down to fight, and some were forced to step down due to manipulation.
Anyone who enters the Colosseum will basically be sure that one of them will die. In this process, countless people will bet on it.
Sometimes there will be dozens of games played in a row in a day, and the profits are huge, but the specific amount is unknown to outsiders.
Only the lord of the black market and the financial backers behind the lord of the black market can know.
Those financial backers are the main reason why the black market can continue to exist in the Holy City. It involves various forces and is complicated.
Luo Xing black market.
Colosseum.
"This is the last fight. Once the fight is over, the debt you owe will be paid off."
A cold-faced middle-aged man said to the five people Bai Ruozhu calmly.
Bai Ruozhu, Lin Kang and other five people have been framed since they entered Luo Xing's black market, causing them to owe a large amount of money to the black market.
In just a few months, everyone has experienced the Colosseum at least five times.
Just because of the special status of the five people, Luo Xing Black Market intends to save their lives, so the opponents arranged are 'just right'.
The five of them all looked a little embarrassed. After hearing the cold-faced middle-aged man's words, Lin Kang's eyes flashed with anger.
The other party is not using them to make money at all. When they come on stage, the dealers in Luo Xing's black market may have to pay out a lot of spiritual coins.
Because many people know that there is a high probability that the five of them will not die. Although they do not know the origins of the five of them, they can see the pattern.
Everyone will be required to go to the Colosseum in a few days, just to torture them and humiliate them! "We are students from Guiyi Academy and have not been seen for several months. You said you would let me leave today.
!”
Lin Kang said angrily.
"Yes, today is Teacher Su's class. If you don't let us leave, Teacher Su will definitely find us!"
Another student from a poor family spoke up.
"We have agreed to keep our word, so why do we need to fight one more time?"
"Shut up.
What about the disciples of Guiyi Academy?
Do you want me to tell your academy that you are coming to my black market and stealing my black market items?
At that time, according to the rules of the academy, I am afraid that you will be expelled from the academy, right?
Even if you are lucky and are not expelled from the school, it will be known to others and bring shame to the school.
Are you willing?"
The cold-faced middle-aged man smiled.
The five people fell silent immediately.
Coming to the black market and being framed and detained by the other party, spreading the word will indeed bring discredit to the Academy.
"So, go and have a good fight."
The cold-faced middle-aged man pointed at Lin Kang: "You come on."
"snort!"
Lin Kang snorted coldly and walked towards the Colosseum.
The Colosseum was full of people. After seeing Lin Kang, they suddenly showed strange expressions and began to bet on Lin Kang's victory.
Although the odds are very low, it is good to make a little profit, but no one dares to bet more, for fear that the black market will deliberately do this to lure them into taking the bait. If they bet more, if Lin Kang loses, they will lose even more miserably.
After the cold-faced middle-aged man made arrangements, he came to a high platform in the Colosseum and came to Kong Li with a respectful expression.
"Master Li, the arrangements have been made. Now on the stage is Lin Kang, a student from the first-level academy of Guiyi Academy."
The cold-faced middle-aged man said respectfully.
He secretly complained in his heart that the other party seemed to know that the tutor from Guiyi Academy would be here today, so he didn't show up in the previous period. He came here specifically because he wanted to show off to the tutor from Guiyi Academy in person.
