Chapter 249 The Scarlet Eyed Ice Toad
Li Xin and Bai Zhantang easily left the crypt and came to the outside world.

Bai Zhantang put down Zhan Hongling who was holding him horizontally. The latter's face was red, and judging from his expression, he was mostly excited.

Tieshou and Zhuiming are still inside, probably because they want to take responsibility and resolve this conflict.

"Brother Bai, I want to go for a walk next time, how about you?"

Li Xin looked at the big and small camps in the gathering place, and if there were small flags hanging, it meant that they were for business, otherwise they were purely for personal use.

Except for food and lodging, many of the small flags are not clearly written. It feels like opening a blind box. If you don’t enter a certain tent specifically, you don’t know what is sold in it.

"Let's go shopping together, don't we brothers go separately?"

Bai Zhantang understood what Li Xin meant, and looked at Zhan Hongling as he spoke.

The latter gave a smile, expressing no opinion.

In fact, she also became curious about Li Xin, trying to figure out who he is, or what makes Tie Shou and Zhui Ming so important.

She could guess that it was related to the black iron gate, but she couldn't think of a clue any further.

And what she thinks, Li Xin doesn't care at all.

Anyway, this woman is under the care of Bai Zhantang, so he won't take a second look.

The three of them started walking in the same direction.

After visiting several camps quickly, Li Xin understood the difference between this place and the ordinary black market.

The most popular items here are drinks and food, followed by medicines, clothing, tools such as shovels and picks.

And Li Xin has been there twice, the black market located in Heifenglin, where cheat books and weapons are the most popular.

"This jerky tastes good, but it's a bit hard."

Bai Zhantang bought wine and meat in one of the camps. At this time, he had a flagon in his left hand and dried meat in his right. He was eating and drinking while shopping around, enjoying himself.

Zhan Hongling also bought a jug of hot wine, and occasionally took a sip to dispel the cold.

"There's a noodle shop in front, how about we go in and have a bowl?"

Bai Zhantang's appetite picked up, and he pointed to a tent in front of him, with the words "tea" and "noodles" written on the hanging flags.

Li Xin nodded in agreement and walked over.

But on the way, he stopped suddenly.

"Anything?"

Bai Zhantang Road.

"fine."

Li Xin just paused for a moment, then recovered immediately, opened the curtain of the tent and got in.

It was clear at a glance in the tent that there were two men each occupying half, behind them was a temporary bed, and in front of them was a booth.

"Guest, hot tea!"

"Noodles! Delicious Yangchun noodles!"

When the two men saw someone coming in, they immediately greeted the business.

"Old Xing! Why are you here?"

Bai Zhantang walked in after Li Xin, and instantly recognized the man selling noodles.

It was Xing Yusen.

Li Xin was outside the tent just now, but he actually saw the face of the person inside with his perception, and then his footsteps stopped.

Because Xing Yusen joined the beggar gang, he could no longer work and lost his job as a police officer.

He didn't want to beg for food every day, but after Lu Xiucai's reminder, he wanted to do some business.

It's a pity that he has no capital at all. He used to have a little savings, but he drank it all by himself.

Up to now, I still owe money to some neighbors and fellow police officers.

Without capital, he couldn't do a big business, and he couldn't do a small business. In the end, he could only think of borrowing money.

He borrowed some money from Genbao, who opened the teahouse, so he could come to Daxue Mountain to set up a noodle stall.

And Genbao didn't borrow in vain, the request was to bring him along, and the two supported each other to do it.

Needless to say, the man selling tea in the tent right now is Gen Bao.

He is also unlucky.

Mrs. Genbao used inferior tea and shoddy it, which made the business of the teahouse worse and worse.

Seeing that her income was declining day by day, Mrs. Genbao encouraged her husband to follow the example of some traders who sensed business opportunities and enter the snow mountain to do business.

Although Genbao was unwilling, he was afraid of his wife and finally gave in.

They hit it off with the down-and-out Xing Yusen, and the two set up a tent in this gathering place and started a business.

Up to now, it has lasted for ten days.

They even began to get used to the cold life in the snow mountain.

"Old Bai! Mr. Li! And you are...the Goddess Catch Zhan Hongling!"

Xing Yusen's eyes widened, he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here.

All three were unexpected people.

In his eyes, Li Xin was always just a wealthy businessman, and he didn't get along with the world, so it was impossible for him to suffer.

Bai Zhantang is similar, in his eyes, he is just an ordinary person who runs around, has little guts, and is particularly timid, who dares to go into the mountains and come to the place where quacks gather?

The last one was Zhan Hongling. Xing Yusen couldn't figure out that she was acting together with Li Xin and Bai Zhantang.

"Goddess Catch!?"

Hearing Xing Yusen's words, Genbao was also taken aback.

"Don't be surprised, I'm not here to catch you."

Zhan Hongling said.

"Old Xing, why did you come here to set up a stall selling noodles?"

Bai Zhantang sighed a little, walked to the noodle stall and said.

"If I don't do this, what else can I do? I can't beg for food like Xiaomi, can I?"

Now that Xing Yusen has reached this point, the unhappiness he once had with Bai Zhantang is no longer important.

He had reflected on it, and realized how much he was worth. To put it bluntly, he had no real skills, no special skills.

If I want to make money now, I can only rely on poverty and hardship, so I think of doing business in the difficult snow-capped mountains.

The noodles he cooks are average, but the environment is poor, and there are still some people who are willing to patronize.

"Oh, it's not easy for you."

Bai Zhantang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Give me a bowl."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of broken silver and handed it out.

It stands to reason that they all pay after eating, and Xing Yusen immediately understood that Bai Zhantang was helping him.

"Don't say anything."

Xing Yusen's eyes were red, he took the money, cupped his fists, and started to cook noodles.

He was not prepared to change money.

He directly took the whole piece of broken silver as Bai Zhantang's aid to him.

Of course, it is.

So Bai Zhantang didn't say anything, and waited for the time for the noodles to be cooked, chatting with Xing Yusen and Gen Bao casually.

Zhan Hongling would occasionally interject.

Li Xin just stood aside and listened.

Unexpectedly, I really got some useful information.

It is said that two days ago, someone found the "Red Eyed Ice Toad" in the nearby snow. At that time, it was not prepared enough to escape, and now it is missing.

In order to obtain the "Red Eyed Ice Toad", many people leave the gathering place to explore outside every day, but so far no one has heard of anyone who has successfully captured it.

"Crimson Eyed Ice Toad? What's so precious about it?"

Zhanhong had never heard of such a toad.

"It is a rare and rare beast that can only be born in extremely cold regions with a very small probability. It is a treasure that all people in the rivers and lakes dream of."

Bai Zhantang is well-informed and described it: "It is white all over and feeds on poison. Anyone who is poisoned can let it absorb it clean. Having it is equivalent to practicing a body protection that is invulnerable to all poisons." Divine skill!"

"So powerful? Let's go find it!"

After hearing this, Zhan Hongling was moved.
