Chapter 163

163 The Golden Cicada leaves its shell

“Sir, do you really want to die for these things?”

The manager of the pawnshop looked at Xia ping ‘an through the pawnshop window. His gaze was as if he was looking at a Bandit.

That’s right, no ordinary person could take out such a large number of items at once. Those items looked like they were owned by killers and robbers, especially those golden head ornaments. At first glance, it was obvious that they came from illegal sources.

When Xia Pingan took out the swords, guns, and golden headdress from his storage space, two ” security guards ” from the pawnshop appeared silently in the business Hall. Their four eyes were fixed on Xia Pingan. One of the ” security guards ” had an obvious fluctuation of divine power, which meant to tell Xia Pingan, ” brother, don’t have any other thoughts. I’m also from the China Merchants Bank.

There was probably no such thing as gun control in Dawan city. On Xia Pingan’s way here, he had seen several gun shops along the way. Those shops sold gunpowder firearms and ammunition of all sizes.

There were also many shops that sold cold weapons.

There were many people on the street carrying knives and guns.

“Yes, I pawned them all!” Xia Pingan said directly, ” shopkeeper, please state your price, Yingluo.

these swords and handguns are all worn out, and the color isn’t too good. These golden head ornaments can only be used by Summoners, and I need to melt them again. How about 46 gold coins? ” The shopkeeper’s small eyes stared at Xia ping ‘an. He had already decided that if Xia ping’ an were to haggle, he would still be able to grind his lips and add another two gold coins.

“Fine, 46 gold coins then!” Xia ping ‘an didn’t bother to argue with him and said directly.

In this world, there were gold coins, silver coins and copper coins, which were the unified currency system set by banks across the world. The agreement was that the color and weight of each of the three currencies were completely the same. For different forces, they only had different patterns; therefore, their weight and color were completely the same. In this way, it was convenient for trade.

The shopkeeper took out the money from behind the counter and counted 46 gold coins for Xia Pingan.

Xia Pingan weighed the gold coins in his hand. Each gold coin weighed about 50 grams. Some of the gold coins had the image of the Tang family’s Castle and Dawan city on them. Some of the gold coins had the image of a woman with two full moons on her head. The latter had the image of the moon goddess.

Reaching out his hand, Xia Pingan swept all the gold coins into his own space-teleportation equipment.

After that, Xia Pingan left the pawnshop.

......

As soon as she walked out, the feeling of being stared at appeared again. It was as if there was a dagger on her back. Xia ping ‘an didn’t make a sound. She took the money and continued to the next place.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

This time, Xia Pingan went to a store that sold clothes.

......

Five minutes later, a skinny figure wearing a black robe and a ferocious ox-head mask appeared at the place where Xia Pingan had jumped off the train. He let out a low roar, and his eyes behind the mask flickered with a fierce light. He immediately chased after Xia Pingan like a bolt of lightning.

......

The night was getting darker.

A few hours later, in a Valley in the endless wilderness, the man wearing a black robe and a bull-headed devil mask finally noticed Xia Pingan’s figure, who was fleeing at full speed.

brat, you’re quite cunning. You actually noticed that I’m watching you. Let’s see where you can run to, tsk tsk. a black-robed figure descended from the sky. His voice was deep and ghostly, and he blocked Xia ping ‘an’s path. He pointed at Xia ping’ an, and a stream of black smoke, like a rope, flew towards Xia ping ‘an.

Xia ping, who was running, calmed down and smiled at the black-robed figure. He was not nervous at all.

Just as the black-robed figure was feeling a little strange, the black smoke-like rope touched Xia ping ‘an. Xia ping’ an’s body shook for a moment, then turned into a wisp of smoke and dissipated.

illusionary technique, the Beacon-fire touches the Marquis Qianqian! the figure in the black robe suddenly roared. He had not expected that he would be fooled by a brat after chasing for half a night.

This was a huge loss of face.

The point was that he had been distracted by the illusion for such a long time, and he didn’t know where the kid had escaped to.

The black-robed figure flew into the air and looked around.

In the vast wilderness and Hills, there was no one to be seen.

......

Just as Xia ping ‘an’s illusionary figure was destroyed, in a tree hole in a forest 100 miles away, Xia ping’ an, who was hiding in it, suddenly opened his eyes, and a look of horror flashed across them.

There was a mysterious connection between the summoner who cast the spell and the illusion. Not only could Xia Pingan control the direction of the illusory figure’s escape, but she could also completely sense what the illusory figure saw and heard.

Although that Man in Black robe and ox-head mask didn’t show his face, judging from his figure and voice, Xia Pingan immediately recalled that black-robed elder of Tang Clan.

‘Why would that elder of Tang Clan want to harm me? I’ve only met him once. Additionally, there’s no grudge between us.’

Xia ping ‘an didn’t know the reason behind this, but he knew that a Wolf eating a sheep didn’t need the sheep’s consent and understanding. This was how the world worked.

Under the protection of the green protective barrier, Xia ping ‘an hid in the tree hole for five days. After five days, when he was sure that the elder of the Tang family had left, Xia ping’ an crawled out of the tree hole, identified the direction, and then ran wildly towards the North.
