Wait, let's wait for the teacher to come."

"For so many years, the Demon Slayer Bureau has not discovered that there is an underground auction." Jiang Qiuyue became more and more frightened as she spoke, "And Su Tang and the others probably went down there and lost the news. What should you do if you are in danger too?

?”

Xu Yinian didn't even think about it: "Just in time, I caught them and fished them out."

"It will take four hours at the fastest to get here from the academy. Let's go down and have a look at the situation first. If anything goes wrong, we'll come back." In contrast, Chen Ran's brain circuit was very much like that of a normal person. He told Jiang Qiuyue,

"When you go back tonight, lock the door of your room. If no one from the college comes to answer you at dawn, you can sneak out of here alone."

Jiang Qiuyue looked at him for a long time.

Suddenly, the girl's eyes felt a little wet.

"Although our group has agreed to give up the results of this assessment, we don't dare to continue to interfere, and I don't have the guts to go down with you..." Jiang Qiuyue lowered her head, with a clear cry in her voice, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Chen Ran's tone was rare and soft, "Our assessment content is only the above-ground auction. You shouldn't go down in the first place. There are only two passes here."

Hearing this, Jiang Qiuyue reluctantly had a smile in her eyes.

She couldn't help but warned again: "You must pay attention to safety!"

When walking towards the place described by the two monsters, Chen Ran suddenly said: "I didn't expect that it would be you who ended up with me."

Xu Yinian: "Why, are you very touched?"

Chen Ran asked back: "What moved you? Did you move another teammate who was holding you back?"

Xu Yinian: "Are you trying to cover up your guilty conscience by opening and closing your mouth for personal attacks? If you're afraid, it's still too late to go up now."

Chen Ran: "I'm so scared that I'm failing a class for the first time in my life. I have to see what tied up my team members."

The entrance to the underground auction is located at the side door of the villa. The white marble lintel is decorated with rolling reliefs. There is no light nearby, and everything is immersed in the gauzy moonlight.

When Xu Yinian and Chen Ran approached, a male waiter in a formal dress walked out of the shadows. He walked without making any sound, like a silent ghost.

Xu Yinian's expression changed slightly.

With the demon slayer's outstanding five senses, they didn't even hear his breathing until the male attendant took the initiative to show up, as if he was a dead thing.

"You two," the male waiter stopped them when he saw that they were about to go in, "this place is closed."

Xu Yinian took out his employee pass and handed it to the other party silently. The waiter carefully looked at the two passes and quickly glanced at him and Chen Ran.

"Go in," he ordered, "go to Area B. Three people just died there. Clean them up quickly."

Xu Yinian and Chen Ran nodded when they heard this, and their hearts sank.

All the way down the steps covered with velvet carpets, the wall lamp casts a long slanted shadow on you, and after rounding the last corner, everything suddenly became clear.

Different from the square auction hall above, the structure of the venue here is circular, like the Colosseum in ancient Rome. Xu Yinian was not sure how many monsters he saw, and he even felt that a few monsters he had accidentally glanced at

The face belonged to a fugitive on the wanted list. Hundreds of monsters stared excitedly at the booth, and quotes and discussions kept coming from all around.

"Five million!"

"Five and a half million!"

"You want to buy a life of sixty years with such a small amount of money? The market is really getting worse."

"Isn't it because of the suppression by the Demon Slayer Bureau? What was the final turnover of that auction ten years ago?"

Having said that, the price is still soaring. Some monsters participating in the auction couldn't help but said to the surroundings: "You are all young, are you eager to rejuvenate? What are you grabbing from us old guys - seven million!"

"

There were several children standing on the booth.

The girls were wearing little dresses, the boys were wearing little suits, and there was a row of children dressed up like dolls in the window.

"They are buying life span." Xu Yinian realized something and opened his eyes in disbelief.

"But this is forbidden." Chen Ran was also stunned, "This already violates the law of the Demon Slayer Bureau. You are still a child. This is a capital crime..."

Lifespan cannot be obtained out of thin air, it can only be exchanged for lives.

If you sacrifice your human lifespan to a monster, the monster will gain a longer lifespan.

While they were talking, a frighteningly high number was quoted for sixty years of life. After the host announced the price, he invited a hunched monster wrapped in a cloak to the stage.

Chen Ran murmured: "Life-changing master."

Xu Yinian stared at the monster under the cloak intently: "Didn't you say that all the life-changing masters are in jail? What happened to the organizer of this ghost place?!"

The host continued: "Please come to the stage, the buyer sitting at No. 13 in Area C, and let the life-changing master exchange your life span for you."

The buyer who bought the life-span was an elderly banshee. Under the watchful eyes of the audience, the banshee walked up to the booth with a beautiful face. The life-changer motioned the buyer to pick a child. After choosing, the life-changer grabbed it with one hand.

The chosen boy holds the buyer's wrist with one hand.

I don’t know what the life-changer did. The boy’s figure grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In contrast, the white hair on the banshee’s temples faded into black hair, and the wrinkles around the eyes disappeared. The boy finally became

As an adult man, the old succubus has regressed back to her middle-aged appearance.

The banshee's face showed joy. She kept looking at her hands with tight skin and stroking her face with her hands. Even if the human boy became an adult in his twenties, he still behaved like a child. Because of his growth,

It caused severe pain, and the whole person was stuck in ill-fitting clothes, and he suddenly burst into tears.

This entertainment program made the monsters in the venue burst into cheers. They happily said: "One more!" "One more girl!"

After being deprived of lifespan, even if they are lucky enough to return to normal human society, most children with adult appearance will find it difficult to adapt to life again.

Realizing that they had been looking here for too long, Xu Yinian suppressed his emotions and was about to remind Chen Ran to go to the workplace first.

"Are you the cleaners?" A waitress wearing a cheongsam looked at them with confusion, "If you don't clean, why are you here watching the excitement?"

Xu Yinian and the waitress looked at each other and suddenly felt something was wrong. Chen Ran had already replied: "I'll be there right away."

——A few shadows were reflected in the waitress' pupils, and there were several monsters behind them!
