Chapter 256 Cursed Fur Coat 2

Following the boss's words, various glimmers of light suddenly flashed in the surrounding glass display cabinets.

A trace of black smoke rose from the prisoner's tattered clothes soaked in old bloodstains, and white light loomed in the cracked crystal stone.

Blue light circulates in the fist-sized conch, and red energy rises from the foot-long feathers.

For a moment, it seemed as if these ordinary-looking objects had lost their disguise, revealing their mysterious contents, tempting onlookers to explore.

Such a gorgeous light and shadow show might make a newcomer dizzy, but here Zhu Mingyao can only get ridiculed.

He glanced at the pile of bits and pieces, and snorted disdainfully at the puppet beads, wooden masks, and horn carvings.

"Don't use illusions and crafts to fool newbies. The price is 20,000 yuan, or I'll leave!" He said with a hint of coercion, proving that he was not some stupid newbie.

Even if Zhu Mingyao transferred a small amount of the large amount of gold jewelry he obtained from the secret realm of Skull Island to his domestic masters through Hualian to show his appreciation, the rest would be enough to make him an invisible rich man, and he would never have to worry about it again. If you worry about money, as long as the price is not too outrageous, you won't bother to test it out again and again.

Although the boss's attitude is a bit artificial, this fur coat is indeed the most powerful item in the store. Since it is shopping, it doesn't hurt to let others make some profits.

"Oh, it turns out that sir is a high-ranking warlock of the [Knight level]. The businessman's little tricks really made you laugh. I'll wrap it up for you now."

The fat boss was stunned, knowing that his trick was just to make people laugh in front of a master, he quickly apologized with joy on his face, and quickly took out the carton and started packing it.

After neatly folding the fur coat and sealing it in the box, the man also put in a piece of white crystal soaked in holy water as an extra to suppress evil spirits. With a full service attitude, he handed it to Zhu Mingyao respectfully.

After the money and goods were paid, he remained diligent, rubbed his chubby hands, nodded and bowed, and brewed hot cocoa in an almost flattering manner, trying to persuade the young guest in front of him to sit for a while longer.

The existence of the innate realm/knight level can be said to be a veritable upper class for ordinary insiders like them who rely on a little special power as a means of livelihood.

Even in New Orleans, where extraordinary people are active, most of these experts are the backbone of the Witch Sisters and the Voodoo Sect. It is rare to have a chance to curry favor with them. Now that they have met a strange and powerful person, of course they have to catch him. If you take the opportunity to have a good chat and become familiar with each other, you may be able to make a rare connection in the future.

Seeing that it was still early and the people were so enthusiastic, Zhu Mingyao chatted for a while and inquired about the news.

"...Haha, this is the atmosphere in New Orleans. Today there is wine and today there is drunkenness. Everyone wants to spend the day happily and enjoy life. And because the headquarters of the two major organizations are stationed here, even the non-human races are quite honest and extremely honest. It is better to cause less trouble, let alone commit crimes at will. In this case, government officials and church personnel are happy to turn a blind eye. It is always better to have less work."

The fat boss Jerome put his hands to his mouth and added in a jokingly low voice:

"After all, you know, those noble ladies have a temper... well, they are very careful about their territory! Everyone goes to nightclubs every day, drinking and beauties, and living happily. No one wants to become a witchcraft puppet or return to the soul. Zombies.”

The two men looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

He humbly refilled the young magician's drink and pinched his plump chin. "As for your question, are there any extraordinary rumors about the circus recently? I can ask my colleagues nearby."

Since someone was willing to help, Zhu Mingyao did his best and readily left his phone number and hotel address. Although he had asked Bai Ziyuan to check information at the Chamber of Commerce to find information about the [Circus of Horror], snakes have their own ways. Rats have their own way, and multiple sources of information may yield additional gains.

After a conversation, the host and guest enjoyed themselves and everyone gained something. Zhu Mingyao politely stood up and said goodbye with a long cardboard box wrapped in a fur coat and a stack of gift Halloween masks that Jerome forced over him.

After walking for some distance, he turned into an alley and looked for an opportunity to throw things into the treasure bag.

It is essential to be on guard against others. The space equipment is too eye-catching, so it is better to show off less to avoid unnecessary trouble.

As soon as he stepped out of the alley, a gust of wind suddenly rushed beside him. He jumped vigilantly, just in time to avoid a brown-gray figure passing quickly. "Sorry, sorry, I'm in a hurry!" Before the clear female voice landed, the owner had gone far away in a hurry, leaving only a strong figure behind, causing the passers-by who were almost hit to yell and curse.

"Tch! Is this girl in a hurry to get married?" After muttering, Zhu Mingyao clapped his hands without paying much attention and continued to start his pleasant trip.

……

……

"Boom!" There was a crisp sound.

The wooden door of [Jerome's Witchcraft Cabin] was pushed open instantly with great force, hit the wall, and then bounced back. A small piece of the green patent leather on it was rubbed off.

"Hey! My door! Be careful, you damn little girl!" The fat boss squinted his eyes to see the visitor clearly, rushed out from the counter, and yelled slightly angrily.

In front of him, a slender figure wearing a brown-gray leather jacket bent down and held his knees, his little brown-red head rising and falling as he breathed.

"Uncle Jerome, I...I have collected enough money, I want that...leather coat!"

Having just completed a hard-working commission, received the reward, and rushed all the way from outside the city, even with the physical strength of an ordinary extraordinary person, it is somewhat unbearable.

"Well, you said... that." Jerome's eyes rolled twice and he hesitated.

After taking a few deep breaths to catch his breath, the slender figure took out the cup from the water dispenser with ease, drank it in a gulp, and burped comfortably, spitting out all the anxiety and heat he had accumulated along the way.

"Here! As I said last time, 30,000 gold yuan, every penny is more. Pay with one hand and deliver with the other!" He took out the thick paper bag that he had kept close to his body, and the energetic figure lifted it high. He waved proudly with one hand on his hip.

"Are you not bragging? I just said that I will definitely get the money within a month!"

"Sophie...that's really a bit...forget it, I'll just say it straight."

After being slapped in the face by a direct blow, the man could no longer think about what was going on, so he had no choice but to slump his shoulders and take the matter seriously.

"Pfft!" A mouthful of water mist spurted out, almost hitting Jerome's face.

"...What! Sold to him! Uncle, how could you do this? We have an agreement!" The bone china tea cup rattled in the wheat-colored palms with exposed veins, as if it was about to be crushed in the next second.

"Do you know how much hardship I endured before I could save enough money?" The crisp voice was filled with grievances and was so nasal that she almost shed tears.

"That's a [Knight-level] strong man, so I got excited..." Jerome's voice became smaller and smaller, knowing that he was wrong.

After a moment of depression, a soft and muscular forearm crossed over, wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, revealing light blue eyes that were as bright as stars, with a stubborn and aggressive gaze.

"Where is he? I'll buy it back with money!"

 The paycheck has arrived. Brothers, I will probably have to ask for leave in a few days. I don’t have any left. Let me take a breather. In order to have perfect attendance this month, let’s see how many days I can hold on.
