âSea City Base is really lively because of them. But, it wonât be long before this place becomes our territory.â
...
The merchant and his followers stood at the edge of the market, looking at the bustling crowd inside. The two of them were muttering to themselves.
At this moment, a peddler carefully came over and asked the two of them,âAre you two interested in buying something? Although my store is a little small, it has everything you want. Why donât you come and take a look?â
The merchantâs expression was calm. His eyes were wide open, and his aura scared the stall owner away.
He put on such an air, but he did not say anything. He just stared at the others, making them quite afraid.
The stall owner retreated silently. After retreating far enough, he dared to grumble.
âWhy are you wandering around here if youâre not buying? Itâs quite scary.â
âWhat did you say?â
Hearing his words, the follower wanted to rush up and beat them up, but he was stopped by the rich businessman behind him.
â Honglang, donât be so impulsive.â The merchant looked around and carefully said to his attendant,â Since youâve already planned it, we should follow the plan. Now, we should find their City Lordâs position first. Donât cause trouble. If they become suspicious and hide in advance, it will be difficult for us.â
It turned out that these two people were the duo formed by the big bear and the monkey.
The two of them had sneaked into Sea City to sneak into the City Lordâs Mansion and capture Ye Qiluo alive. At that time, they would use Ye Qiluo to order all the humans and demons in the city to bring the clansmen who were following them here.
Although the density of spiritual energy in the Demon Realm was still somewhat different from the environment they lived in, this was a benefit that had fallen into their hands for no reason. It was definitely best to land safely in their hands.
After walking around the place, the two of them felt that their plan was very good. With Sea City Baseâs strength, they didnât need the troops behind them. They only needed the two of them, and they could easily take care of all these people.
It was laughable that his mother had made this matter so complicated and even made the Spirit Child, that good-for-nothing, personally take charge of this attack. It was simply useless.
That trash, Spirit Boy, was still tangled up with that group of demonic beasts inside.
When Monkey thought of this, he felt smug. He felt that his decision to sneak out was too wise.
If he had really listened to his motherâs words and was still honestly looking for that human that he could not touch, how could this credit have fallen into his hands? Now, he had earned a lot.
After a simple discussion, the two of them did not argue with the stall owner. Instead, they walked towards a small stall surrounded by a large crowd.
They squeezed into the crowd and came closer, only to find that it was a small stall on the ground. There was only a large rag in this place. There were some simple lines drawn on this rag, but it was unknown what it was used for.
He saw a person sitting behind the waterfall with a small bowl in his hand. At this time, he was mumbling.
âThis bowl of mine can isolate all spiritual senses. No matter how powerful a person is, even if the heavens come, they wonât be able to see how many stones there are in this bowl. As long as you can guess whether there are odd or even numbers in this bowl, Iâll give you these fifty spirit stones with both hands.â
After muttering to himself, the man pretended to take out a few small stones. Then, he changed them very pretentiously and stuffed them under the bowl.
However, he seemed to have deliberately left a gap before stuffing it in, so that people could see that there were clearly five stones in the bowl.
At some point, two people had stood beside the monkey duo. The two of them crossed their arms in front of their chests and chatted happily.
âThis is definitely an even number. What a pity. If 1 had bet a little spirit stones just now, these 50 spirit stones would have been mine.â
âWho says so? I was just about to bet on it, but his hands closed too quickly. 1 think itâs an even number.â
When the big bear heard what the two of them said, he couldnât help but squat in front of the stall and point at the small bowl. âThere are clearly only five stones down here.â
At this moment, everyoneâs gaze fell on him. The stall owner raised his head and stared at Da Xiong.âFellow Daoist, this small bowl of mine can isolate all divine senses. I canât sense anyone. How can you know how many stones are inside?â
Big Bear pointed at the bowl and said,â Stop talking nonsense. There are five stones in here. Hurry up and open it!ââ
The vendor covered his bowl and said,âYou havenât even bet on spirit stones yet. Even if you guess correctly, these 50 spirit stones of mine arenât yours.ââ
Someone immediately echoed,âThatâs true. You didnât take out any spirit stones, so itâs useless to say that itâs an odd number.â
The stall owner took the opportunity to say,â Take out ten spirit stones and put them on the table. If the number in this bowl is odd, then the fifty spirit stones in my hand will be yours.. If itâs even, then the ten spirit stones in your hand will be mine!ââ
