Trafford’s Trading Club

From the beginning, Luo Qiu never thought that this weird altar would actually move.

The black substance that was as black as ink and looked like water but not water began to spread from the outlet of the altar, but it did not spread too much.

Luo Qiu didn't even feel the heavy feeling that the altar usually brought to him at this moment... He just felt an indescribable relaxation that began to spread throughout his body from this moment on.

Luo Qiu subconsciously walked to the edge of the altar.

This kind of floating did not take long, maybe only a minute or two passed. It doesn't even float high, about one meter.

But at this moment, Luo Qiu discovered that there was a pillar of the same size connected to the bottom of the altar! At the same time, the gold and silver card in Luo Qiu's hand began to emit a stronger light than usual... Vaguely, this card seemed to want to be separated from his hand.

Luo Qiu frowned and began to look at the altar and the pillar below.

One, two, three, four...seven.

What he discovered was that on this pillar, there were seven grooves of equal size, even equal to the size of the gold and silver card in his hand.

Luo Qiu tried to put the gold and silver card in his hand casually into one of the grooves... After a while, the altar did not continue to change.

"Specify the location?" Luo Qiu frowned and began to try one by one. Finally, when the card in his hand fell into one of the grooves, new changes began to appear.

First, the card that fell into the groove began to become plump, and then became like the material of a pillar, almost blending in with the pillar.

"The fourth key, inserted successfully."

At the same time, a message flowed from the altar towards Luo Qiu.

Luo Qiu was stunned, "This card is a key...the fourth key, what does it mean?"

"The fourth key."

"what exactly is it?"

"The fourth key."

"What exactly is the meaning of the fourth key?"

"The fourth key."

Luo Qiu stopped asking. It seemed that no matter how many times he asked, the answer he got in the end was only the 'fourth key'... The key is, regarding this gold and silver card, this so-called fourth key, he didn't even buy other keys. There are no prices for the information.

The only answer is 'This is the fourth key', which is not even an answer.

Luo Qiu thought for a while, and when he was about to pull the card out from the pillar, the altar slowly sank into the ground again... and the strange substances under his feet began to pour back in.

But the altar had a completely new change at this time...or maybe there was something extra that wasn't there before. It was above the altar, about a foot high, and a sphere was slowly born.

Luo Qiu tried to wipe it away from the sphere, but his palm easily penetrated it...it turned out to be just a shadow. But this shadow is...

"This is...Earth?"

There should be nothing wrong. The wheel ball shown by this sphere and the continental plate above it are exactly what the earth looks like today.

It's just that this 'Earth' is completely different from the star map of the Earth that he has seen... The beautiful planet that should have been azure is now showing a kind of gray color on the sphere projected by the altar. color.

The grayish-white color replaces the blue part of the ocean, and all the continents appear brown... It feels like a negative when a photo is being developed.

"What does this earth represent?"

"Please insert more keys."

…

"Hidden."

Luo Qiu tried to say this to the altar. Unexpectedly, the projected sphere gradually disappeared.

But since then, the altar has had an additional function of projecting the sphere, which has an unknown meaning.

"Nothing about the key can be obtained by paying my life... Even why the fourth key appears in the stone statue, there is no payment option. Only after collecting more keys can we know what is behind the key. What does it mean?"

He had left the third floor and was walking slowly towards the lobby.

Luo Qiu suddenly remembered a story about God and stones: Can the omnipotent God create a stone that he cannot lift.

It seemed that he could fit in well on top of everything he had just experienced. The club that claims to be able to sell everything has something it cannot sell to him as its owner.

"No...it's possible that they just don't sell to me. If I'm a guest, can I buy information about the key?" Luo Qiu couldn't help but want to go in this direction.

If this assumption is true, then the altar just does not open the key information to him as the boss... After all, as the boss, he is not a guest. He has never said that the boss can buy anything he wants from the club. It's just that he has been able to pay for his lifespan, obtain intelligence information, etc., thus giving birth to the illusion that he can buy anything.

"But if you are a guest... let alone the possibility of knowing the existence of the key and choosing to purchase the information, it seems that it is just a matter of payment..."

Originally, besides him as the boss, who else would be interested in this key... What the guests need is what they desperately want to get.

So, we can only wait for the next key to appear?

"Owner?"

Luo Qiu, who had returned to the lobby unknowingly, heard the call of the maid. The maid, who was far more proficient in observing eyebrows than she was, seemed to sense something from the lingering doubts on Luo Qiu's face.

"fine."

Luo Qiu smiled slightly. He sat in front of the counter, tapped his fingers on the countertop, and suddenly said, "What was the takeaway that Uncle Ye asked the hotel front desk to order for today?"

You Ye quickly replied: "For dinner, it should be fried noodles."

Luo Qiu thought for a while and said softly: "Uncle Ye's hometown is in the capital. When I was at Xiaochun Martial Arts School, I could occasionally eat fried noodles made by sister Xiaochun... Well, you come with me."

Boss Luo suddenly pinched his sleeves and walked towards the kitchen: "I should still remember how to do it."

…

…

"Sister Heishui, where are we going now?"

After walking out of the steep hilltop where the Taoist temple of Xianxuan Huanzhen Tao was located, Heishui was leading a group of children through the mountains and forests.

Perhaps because they walked too fast and too hastily, these little demon cubs quickly became tired. Heishui couldn't bear it and had to find a private place to rest first.

A group of children were sitting in the hiding place, while Heishui was guarding the outside. At this time, the little rabbit demon led a kettle made of bamboo tubes to Heishui's side, "Sister Heishui, have a drink of water!"

"Lingling, be good."

Among the group of little demons, the little rabbit demon was the oldest and the most sensible one. Heishui couldn't help but sigh, touched Lingling's head and said, "Thank you for these times."

Lingling shook her head and said, "No, compared to me, Sister Heishui is the one who works the hardest... I know that."

Looking at the little rabbit demon's lowered head, Heishui already knew that although he didn't say anything, Lingling actually knew everything and had just been silently playing the role of the big sister to these little guys.

Heishui sighed secretly: "We have to get out of this forest before it gets dark. Otherwise, we don't know if that stinky bat will appear at night."

Lingling tilted her head and said, "If you show up, you should go to the Taoist temple first?"

"It's the stinky Taoist priest who deserves to go." Heishui sneered: "That stinky bat has been following us all the way since we left the last mountain top, and has no good intentions. If he hadn't been my opponent, how would he have been in the past ten years? Lurking nearby... If it dares to come to the Taoist temple again, let it have a fight with that smelly Taoist priest."

Lingling's eyes lit up and she said, "In that case, can we go back?"

But Heishui shook his head and said: "That Taoist priest is very capable of escaping. If he escapes, we will be in more danger... We can't stay here anyway."

Although it was unclear why they were in a worse situation after the smelly Taoist priest escaped, in the little rabbit demon's heart, the words of Sister Heishui, who had been protecting him and waiting, must be correct.

But Xiaotu looked around, showing a confused expression, "But, where should we go..."

The sky and the earth are so vast that there seems to be no room for them all of a sudden.

Heishui was silent for a while, then heaved a sigh of relief and said, "There is no other way. It seems I have to go and beg that adult."

"That lord?"

Heishui nodded: "He is the last True Dragon of our demon clan." (To be continued.)
