Hunting High School
Chapter 69: The Spring Guest Comes
The annoying check didn't last long.
Although the goldfish guard has a bad memory, he is conscientious enough. After confirming the identities of several guests, he spit out a big bubble, let several people get into the bubble, and then it pushed the bubble into the pond with its tail.
The pond is clear and shallow when viewed from the outside.
But after the water bubble fell into the pond, Zheng Qing felt like entering a high-speed elevator - outside the transparent bubble wall, light and shadow flashed quickly, slender swimming fish, oval scallops, rampant crabs, etc., aquatic creatures All kinds of magical halos were shining on his body, making people dizzy and making people close their eyes.
When Zheng Qing felt the blisters vibrate and opened his eyes again, there was already a dark blue world in front of him.
It seems to be in the deepest seabed, but when you look up, you can see the brilliant Galaxy Cluster in the sky.
This contradictory feeling of novelty made several young wizards stay where they were for a while, and only looked up their necks, admiring the magnificent and magical scenery of nature.
"Quan Ke is here to welcome you." A big blue and black crab waved its huge pincers, holding two bouquets of magic flowers on the pincers. Its voice was like a brush rubbing wood, and its voice was low and hoarse: "...Newcomer Guests, don't stand at the door, it will block the way of other guests."
Zheng Qing woke up suddenly, dragged the witch, and left in a hurry.
Unlike Huiziji, Sijifang, or the pedestrian street in Beta Town, Quankelai’s market is located underwater, which leads to two very distinctive features—heavy water vapor and dark light.
Although the organizer used a huge barrier similar to water bubbles to isolate the fair from the close contact with the sea water, creating a world full of air, so that guests from land can shop in the fair with peace of mind, but this is an aquarium after all. world. For the sake of the health of the aquatic people, the humidity in the market is particularly high.
Zheng Qing felt that with every breath he took, he was spraying water like a whale.
As for the dark light, fair organizers replaced natural light with a lot of magic light, which made up for this shortcoming very well.
Fist-sized Ye Ming beads are embedded in the surrounding coral trees, shining brightly; luminous octopus climbs freely on the wall of the water bubble, and the whole body emits orange or white light according to the water temperature and mood; In the stone shops on both sides of the street, the shopkeepers lit candles and oil lamps to attract every passing guest.
The oil lamps used by the aquatic people are different from those used by the wizards on the ground.
The wizards on the shore like to use precious marine ointments such as whale oil, shark oil, and jiao oil as fuel, while the magical creatures underwater use the same precious ointments such as lard oil, monkey oil, and titan oil. Make fuel.
Roughly crafted black candles were burning hard in the low stone house. The candle flames were bright red, and one or two golden sparks popped out from time to time, making a slight, beeping popping sound.
Everyone's face seemed to be covered with a thin layer of black veil, adding a bit of mysterious feeling for no reason.
Also different from the noisy ground market, the underwater market is more like a ghost market in legends, which is so quiet that it makes people feel creepy. Zheng Qing felt that every step they took was like walking deeper into the silt, and the people oppressed by the water vapor and silence were breathless.
"It can't be so quiet here forever, can it?" He moved his lips slightly, and asked his two companions in a mosquito-like voice—then he saw two businessmen making deals in the ancient way of 'sleeve fingers' .
Jiang Yu patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.
The little fox struggled hard in Zheng Qing's arms, trying to break free from his shackles and go out for fun. The young public finance student had to find a rope to tie it to his wrist, so as not to be sneaked away by it inadvertently.

"Be honest!" The wizard said in a low voice annoyed, "This is not a school... Be careful of being caught and made into a fox fur coat!"
"It's too small to make a fox fur coat... at most it can be a hat." Xiao Xiao corrected it very kindly.
These terrible rhetoric finally made Poseidon a little calmer.
Of course, it's the little octopus in its paws that's more likely to quiet it down.
Just passing by a coral tree, Zheng Qing saw this glowing octopus climbing up the branch, so he picked it off and gave it to the little fox as a toy.
The little fox was happily playing, but Mr. Octopus was very annoyed—the light from its head had changed from milky white to bright red, like a pool of flowing magma.
The red light of the magma illuminates the nearest shop. A piece of fresh green-fur tortoise shell hangs on the stone lintel. The slender green fluff slowly undulates in the humid air, as if it is still alive.
Zheng Qing poked his head in and took a look. This was a shop specializing in the sale of turtle shells.
Just taking a look, he saw that there are many distinctive tortoise shells such as longevity turtles, sea turtles, mud turtles, old turtles, snapping turtles, tide turtles, leatherback turtles, etc., placed in piles in the store. A tall murloc was looking at a large scale in his hand in distress.
Seeing a guest show up, the murloc's eyes flashed with joy, he dropped the weight in his hand, and hissed, "Do you need some tortoise shells? Divination, medicine, engraving, all kinds of categories are complete, and the price is calculated according to the price. No cheating! The cheapest one is a copper coin!"
The young public finance student gave a dry laugh apologetically, and shrank his head back with a whoosh.
"Doctor, you can buy some." Zheng Qing glanced at Xiao Xiao who had been following him, and suggested, "The price of tortoise shells here is very cheap... Don't you like to use tortoise shells the most when you usually do divination?"
"At home, it's free." Xiao Xiao raised the goatee on his chin, and answered very concisely.
Zheng Qing let out an 'oh', and his eyes were already drawn to the next shop. He looked at everything that was completely different from the ground with great interest.
A short, shriveled old wizard jumped up and down in front of a slender merman and shouted: "...It's a robbery! Last year, a one-foot merman was only three beans and five horns. How could it become five beans this year?"
The shark raised his finger and pointed to a blackboard hanging on the shop.
It reads 'Affected by the La Nina phenomenon, the sea water in the eastern part of the ocean has become abnormally cold, and the production of squid in 2008-09 has been greatly reduced. This price change has been verified by Quanke, and there is no price gouging. '
The shriveled old wizard rolled his eyes and muttered, "Then if I buy more than a hundred feet, can you spare me ten shark beads?"
Shark beads are said to be pearls formed from the tears of sharks. They are widely used in many magic potions, and the price is more than double that of ordinary pearls.
Zheng Qing had never seen such a customer who could 'bargain', and couldn't help opening his eyes wide.
Mermaids just don't deal with wizards often, it doesn't mean they are stupid.
"No!" The shopkeeper who sold shark silk finally spoke up, and refused firmly, "Losing money!"
Her voice was very clear, with a sweet melody like a bird.
"Nine?"
"Eight...seven heads, right?! You spared me five when I bought it last year. It's so expensive this year, it doesn't matter if you give me two more!"
