After traveling through time, I became the interstellar devil

Chapter 443 Being scammed

Lan Xing glanced at Ye Chen's smiling face and didn't see any embarrassment at all.

Ye Chen kicked the stones on the roadside. The buildings inside the castle were much better than those outside. At least they were all normal houses, and there were even small stalls on the roadside.

The public security here is also much better than outside the fortress. Ye Chen smelled a lot of blood outside the fortress, but it is much better inside.

However, the people here still had deep vigilance in their eyes and rarely smiled on their faces. Even fat people like Jin Yuan were rare.

Speaking of which, Ye Chen was a little curious, how did Jin Yuan get so fat in this disaster-like world?

Thinking about it in his mind, Ye Chen naturally asked.

Jin Yuan, who was racking his brains for how to strike up a conversation with the two big guys, was stunned. "Huh?"

Jin Yuan looked down at his round belly. He... wasn't very fat, only about 180 pounds, less than pounds.

But he couldn't help but answer the boss's question. Jin Yuan's mind worked quickly, "I also benefited from my family's influence. Although I don't have any great abilities, I don't have to worry about food and drink."

Speaking of his family, Jin Yuan is still very proud. "My father and sister are much better than a loser like me. They give me some living allowance every year."

In his sister's words, she was afraid that he would accidentally starve himself to death.

His brother-in-law looked down on him. In order to prevent his brother-in-law from misunderstanding that he was his sister's blood-sucking parasite, Jin Yuan left very quickly and only went back twice a year, on his mother's death anniversary and his sister's birthday.

As for his father's birthday, if he has the crystal core, he will go back. If he doesn't have the crystal core, forget it. It is still quite dangerous to travel between fortresses.

Jin Yuan only told Ye Chen about interesting things, and naturally did not mention the various hardships involved. He then started talking about the various foods in Fortress No. 54.

Although food resources are scarce, if there are enough crystal cores, you can still eat a lot of good things.

Ye Chen felt hungry as he listened to Jin Yuan announcing the names of the dishes.

In the end, the group did not look for a place to stay first, but stopped in front of a small restaurant.

The restaurant's decoration is very ordinary, the kind that if it were placed in the interstellar world, it would be strictly ordered to be rectified because it affects the planet's environment.

...It would be just right to put it on a garbage planet.

Ye Chen and Lan Xing stood outside the door and hesitated for a few seconds, but finally took the first step bravely since they were already here.

Then I regretted it.

Jin Yuan spent ten second-level crystal cores to order the best and most expensive meal in this restaurant. Ye Chen was also looking forward to the special food of this alien world at the beginning.

Until the first dish was brought to Ye Chen, looking at the food in front of him that contained turbidity several times more dense than that in the interstellar world...

Ye Chen knew what it tasted like without even thinking about it.

He's so stupid, really.

He only knew that the interstellar world was corroded by foul air so the food became abnormal. How could he forget that the continent of the other world was the source of the foul air?

Ye Chen turned his head to look at Lan Xing, and Lan Xing silently looked up at the ceiling of the restaurant.

He just saw that Ye Chen was so interested and didn't have the heart to ruin his mood.

"puff!"

I definitely didn't mean to make fun of you on purpose.

"what."

"Don't hold it back, you're laughing out loud!" Ye Chen looked at Lan Xing and said softly.

Lan Xing saw that Ye Chen was about to get angry, so she calmed down in a second and changed the subject: "I see there are many small stalls outside, do you want to go shopping?"

Ye Chen snorted lightly, but also went down the stairs.

As for the food that had already been ordered, it was naturally left to Jin Yuan and the mercenary team to deal with. The locals would not complain that the local food was bad, otherwise they would starve to death.

After waiting for Jin Yuan and his friends to finish all the food in no time, he quickly took the two bosses to the most famous market next to the restaurant.

There are all kinds of small stalls here, selling everything except people, but whether the goods are good or not depends on one's luck.

However, when it comes to luck, Ye Chen has never lost.

As soon as you enter the market, you will be greeted by all kinds of shouting sounds. There is only one silent stall that is very special. The stall owner even has his eyes half closed and is almost asleep. He is not in a hurry even though business is slow.

Ye Chen curiously pulled Lan Xing over to take a look. There were all kinds of beautiful stones on it, as well as some ancient-looking artifacts that looked like antiques just dug out from the dirt road.

Ye Chen picked up a strangely shaped eye from a pile of things, held it up and looked at it towards the sun, but he couldn't see anything special about it.

"This lord has a good eye. This is the legendary mysterious eye, and the price is only two thousand level one crystal cores."

When the stall owner saw Ye Chen and Lan Xing, who were neatly dressed and good-looking, with a housekeeper and guards following them, he mistakenly thought they were the well-protected young masters of the family, and he suddenly seemed like a different person.

This is also the way he does business, he speaks the same way to different people and different things to different people.

Previously, he acted indifferent to the stall business because he was just fishing. He pretended to be deep when he met ordinary rookies, but he was more attentive when he met rookie big fish like Ye Chen who were accompanied by butlers and guards.

If his attitude is not good, what if the young master gets angry and asks his men to smash his stall?

However, his attitude became more attentive, and he called out the price more fiercely. The look he gave Ye Chen was full of the intention to make a big profit.

"Two thousand. Your broken thing is not even worth twenty first-level crystal cores." Jin Yuan couldn't help but complain.

The stall owner saw that Jin Yuan seemed to know the value of the item, and his face darkened for a moment, but he still said stubbornly: "What do you know? This was just dug out from a mysterious tomb. It is very likely an antique from thousands of years ago. Maybe someone with a predestined relationship can summon an extraordinary existence."

"Thousands of years ago, I think it was more like a few years ago." Jin Yuan said disdainfully.

Ye Chen listened to the quarrel between the two with great interest, and keenly heard two key words from it.

"call?"

Ye Chen tossed the strange eye in his hand and said, "What do you think can be summoned with this thing?"

Seeing Ye Chen's interest, the stall owner smiled again, "I don't know what it can summon, but you know, sir, ancient items like this are most likely to summon powerful and mysterious beings."

How could Jin Yuan watch his boss being deceived in front of him? Seeing this, he quickly explained: "Sir, antiques can indeed be used as a medium to communicate mysteries, but this thing is obviously a fake that this guy got from somewhere."

Ye Chen felt that it was somewhat similar to the way he summoned ancient beasts. He swept his eyes across the stall and picked up a blue stone at random.

"I want these two." Ye Chen casually threw a crystal core to Jin Yuan.

"The rest is yours."

Jin Yuan caught the crystal core in a hurry, took a quick look at it and quickly stuffed it into his pocket, then turned around and handed two level 3 crystal cores to the stall owner.

"Two thousand level one crystal cores, right? Our master wants it, and the blue stone is just a gift."

The stall owner's eyes almost popped out when he saw the two level three crystal cores. He nodded and agreed quickly, fearing that the stupid adult with more crystal cores would change his mind if he was late.

Ten first-level crystal cores are equal to one second-level crystal core, but one hundred second-level crystal cores are equal to one third-level crystal core.

Two thousand level one crystal cores was just a random price he shouted out. Although he wanted to make a big profit, his expectation was two hundred crystal cores!

The two things on his stall are not even worth two crystal cores.

I don’t know which adult threw some kind of crystal core to the fat guy, and he suddenly became so generous.

Not only the stall owner was curious, but everyone around who saw the scene was also curious.

When Ye Chen and Lan Xing left, countless greedy eyes were focused on them.

Ye Chen played with the blue stone and the strange eyes, feeling the malice coming from all directions, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

It's just fishing, he can do it too.

Nothing difficult.

Ye Chen played with the things in his hands and continued to drag Lan Xing around, trying to get ahold of any new and strange things he saw.

However, Lan Xing became more and more disgusted with the ugly thing that Ye Chen kept playing with in his hands, until he finally couldn't bear it anymore.

With a slight movement of his fingers, Lan Xing carved a beautiful crystal core eye using the crystal core of the mutant star beast.

"Here." Lan Xing stretched out his hand towards Ye Chen, and in his palm was a crystal core eye that was a hundred times more beautiful than that ugly eye.

Jin Yuan took a glance from the side, and was immediately shocked by the level of the crystal core. He was even more heartbroken to see such a good thing being wasted.

A holy-grade crystal core. That was a holy-grade crystal core, something that was hard to come by in the entire black market auction.

"It looks good." Ye Chen took the crystal core eye and casually threw the ugly eyes he had just bought to Jin Yuan without any reluctance.

Seeing that Ye Chen liked it, Lan Xing took out another crystal core and carved it into the shape of a little dragon. However, after looking at it, he did not give it to Ye Chen, but kept it for himself.

Ye Chen looked up at Lan Xing and saw him take out another crystal core and mold it into the shape of a blue star. He immediately smiled and said, "I like this one."

Ye Chen took the blue star ball and played with it carefully, while the blue planet came to his mind.

Soon, he will be able to see the real Blue Planet, a planet that he can protect with his life.

When Ye Chen was staring at the little blue star in his hand in a daze, someone suddenly rushed towards him.

Lan Xing subconsciously wanted to kick, but thinking that Ye Xiaolong was right next to him, he retracted his foot and instead reached out to pull the person next to him into his arms to protect him.

The man hit nothing, and there was a hint of viciousness in his eyes, but when he raised his head he looked pitiful again.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to..." The girl raised her head, revealing a pretty and somewhat fragile face.

A pair of eyes seemed to be able to speak as they looked at Ye Chen and Lan Xing, wanting to say something but feeling shy.

"Oh, then remember to walk carefully next time." After Ye Chen said that, he pulled Lan Xing and turned to leave.

The girl didn't expect the two to leave so easily, but she cursed under her breath when she saw them holding hands.

Soon, the girl hid in the crowd and found her companions.

"Those two definitely don't like women, change them."

"Change to a man, but we don't have any men here who are better looking than them." said the man next to him.

"What if you want to change your taste after eating too much good stuff? He is a strong man who can easily take out a saint-level crystal core. I can see it clearly." The man wearing half a mask said gloomily.

"He looks like a pretty boy but he can produce a Saint-level crystal core. He is accompanied by a butler and bodyguards. He must be the young master of some rich family."

It is normal for a young master like this to die in the wilderness accidentally.

Soon, Ye Chen and Lan Xing encountered a scam again.

It was late autumn but the man was still wearing short-sleeved T-shirt and shorts. He was accidentally knocked down in front of Ye Chen and Lan Xing by a passerby.

When the man raised his head, he revealed the same delicate appearance as the woman who had scammed him before. His slender neck made him look particularly easy to bully, and his eyes seemed to be inviting something when he looked at people.

However, Ye Chen and Lan Xing seemed to be unable to see him. They didn't even have the intention to help him up. They walked around the scammer and continued to shop at the stalls.

The scammer: “…………“Damn it, you’re blind!

It was as if a switch was turned on. Within the short distance of two streets, Ye Chen and Lan Xing encountered five or six scams, big and small.

Among them were men, women, and even teenagers who had not grown up. Each of them was more handsome than the other.

But none of them can compare to Ye Chen and Lan Xing themselves.

"Get out of the way!"

A charming-looking man accidentally fell from the third-floor window on the street and hit Ye Chen right in the face.

Although the man's face was full of fear, his facial expression was controlled just right. Not only did he not look ugly, but he also looked more gorgeous, making people want to tease him.

This time, Lan Xing finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he stretched out his hand and knocked the man three meters away.

After the beating, Lan Xing calmly withdrew her hand without even looking at the charming man.

"There's nothing to see here, let's go."

It was the first time that Ye Chen saw Lan Xing showing impatience, but there was really nothing interesting here.

Whether inside or outside the fortress, it is filled with resentment and foul air. Good people cannot survive and evil people will last forever.

"Then let's go find Ye Jiu and Brother Yuan first." Ye Chen said.

Ye Chen admitted that he had thrown the Saint-level crystal core to Jin Yuan in order to fish, but what he wanted to catch was not these small fish and shrimps.

What fishermen hate most is small fish disturbing the nest, and fishing dragons are not bad either.

Besides, these men and women who commit fraud are blind. He and his male mother are so handsome, how could they fall in love with anyone else except each other.

The two men left as soon as they said they were leaving. After visiting less than two-thirds of the fortress, it no longer had any appeal to them, so they turned around and left.

Jin Yuan followed behind and didn't dare to try to persuade them. After all, he had witnessed all the frauds along the way with his own eyes, which was really disgusting.

However, Ye Chen and Lan Xing's actions caught some people with ulterior motives off guard, and they had to urgently change their plans.

When Ye Chen and Lan Xing left Fortress No. 54, they left a long trail of tails behind them.

Jin Yuan and his mercenary team returned to the wilderness again. Ye Chen in the car touched his chin and asked Jin Yuan who was sitting in the front, "Don't I look like a powerful boss?"

He originally just wanted to catch one fish, but he didn't expect a group of them to come.

Jin Yuan looked at Ye Chen and wanted to tell the truth but didn’t dare to speak, so he could only flatter: “Who are those people who are blind? You can tell at a glance that your Excellency is mighty and majestic.”

Which boss would bring bodyguards and butlers with him when walking in the wilderness? These are all burdens to him.
