Gu Yan's fingertips gently rubbed against the curved and swollen tip of the plant, and when she felt the round and delicate touch, there seemed to be a warm current in her chest, and her heart beat hard a few times with the "sudden".

Seeing her looking at the potted grass intently, Pei Yan moved his gaze to the old man guarding the stall and asked politely, "Old man, how do you sell your potted plants?"

The old man moved slowly, his head lifted from the shadows, his old skin was covered with wrinkles and brown spots, his left eye was covered by an eye patch, his right eye was cloudy, but his gaze was unexpectedly sharp.

He didn't answer, but looked Pei Yan up and down with his right eye, and then turned his head to look at Gu Yan who was holding a potted plant, his eyes were certain, and a hoarse cough came out of his throat.

"How much can you afford?" he asked Gu Yu.

Gu Yan raised her head and looked at him when she heard this, and soon understood the identity of the other party.

It is said that most of the cultivators have "five disadvantages and three deficiencies", especially fortune-telling, either blind or lame, but this statement is not entirely correct, those who know how to read fortune-telling are not necessarily the real cultivators, and these are just the most basic small techniques, if it is used under the premise of conforming to the laws of heaven, it is not a big problem, but if you violate the law and use spells to change the cause and effect for others, it will cause trouble.

The old man in front of him is the latter, practicing the left way, changing people's lives for the sake of profit, and only then became blind and lame when he got old.

Gu Yu also understood that he must have seen something when he asked himself like this, but parents like her are immortals who have become gods, and they are immortals who are born immortals, and their own breath is very unusual, after coming to the lower realm, in order to avoid causing trouble, the dantian will automatically conjure up a kind of barrier that can confuse others, even if the masters of the immortal cultivation world in the world look at her, they will never think that she is an immortal in the sky, but will only think that she is also an immortal cultivator.

Gu Yu was fearless, playing with the pot of grass in her hand, and followed his words: "What does the old gentleman want?"

Lao Dao coughed again, stretched out a finger that was so thin that only skin and bones remained, and pointed to her coat pocket tremblingly, "I'm going to... That thing. ”

Hearing this, Gu Yu touched her pocket, but her fingers touched a slightly bulging rectangular bag, and the touch of musk deer skin was very familiar.

When I took it out, it turned out to be the acupuncture bag with silver needles. The last time she gave Pei Yan acupuncture, she suddenly caught fire, and in a hurry she stuffed it into the pocket of this dress, and then she forgot to take it out.

She looked at the acupuncture bag in her left hand, then at the potted plant she was holding in her right hand, and after thinking about it, she was about to put the potted plant down.

Although this potted plant is a bit strange, this silver needle bag was brought down by her from the heavenly realm, and it cannot be easily exchanged with people.

Seeing this, the old man added in a low voice: "What you are holding in your hand is geranium, but it is only a seedling." ”

Gu Yu's movements paused suddenly, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and after looking closely, this was indeed very similar to the geranium grass she had seen.

Geranium grass is a god only in the heavenly realm, although its appearance is not good, but it can assist in cultivation, the effect is very good, every year the Jade Emperor will order a large number of planting, but in the end can successfully survive only a few pots, only the gods who are highly respected or have made great contributions are eligible to obtain.

Not to mention where the pot sold by this old Taoist came from, just in such an environment with thin aura in the world, it is already amazing that the geranium grass can maintain its existing vitality.

Now that he has recovered forty percent of his mana, if he can have Tianzhu grass to assist in his cultivation, he will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort!

Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated, and decisively threw the acupuncture bag into Lao Dao's arms, "Deal." ”

And Pei Yan, who was standing on the side and watching all this, looked thoughtful, frowned at the old way, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

He remembered very clearly that there was a record in the Pei family classics that there was a plant called "Tianzhu Grass" planted in the family's forbidden cold pool, which was said to be handed down by the first ancestor of the Pei family to become an immortal, and was regarded as the treasure of the family.

But just twenty years ago, he was thrown into the cold pool because he didn't want to cultivate, but he didn't see anything like geranium grass in it......

The ghost market was not long, and the two of them walked around for a while, and soon came to a small bridge.

The bridge was made of stone, and it seemed to be many years old, and under the bridge was a river that was not very wide, and there were people standing on the shore of the ghost market, all of whom held a red lotus lantern in their hands, lit the candles in the lamp, and handed them to a boatman on the water, who would be responsible for sending them all into the river.

Pei Yan suddenly noticed that there were no pedestrians on the stone bridge and on the other side of the bridge, and asked curiously, "Why is no one on the bridge passing?"

"Because legend has it that this bridge is called 'Bridge of the Dead', this side of the bridge is the yang world, and the other side of the bridge is the underworld, and the living will not cross it. And if anyone who doesn't know wants to step on the bridge, they will be stopped by the staff guarding nearby. Gu Yu explained.

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard this, "I've been in Lincheng for so long, why don't I know that there is such a place?"

"The world is so big, there are so many things you don't know. Gu Yu said and stood on tiptoe to look around, her eyes lit up, and she led him to walk quickly in a certain direction.

It was a row of stalls selling lotus lanterns, at first glance there were dozens, one of the stalls in front of the crowd was particularly crowded, a pair of twin ghosts who looked like New Year's dolls sat on a small bench, behind them two large bamboo baskets respectively placed the lotus flower that had just been picked not long ago and the white candle cut short, the two skillfully fixed the candle in the lotus flower with gold thread, and soon made a lotus lamp.

There is also a wooden sign standing next to the stall, on which is written the price of lotus lanterns and a line of crooked small characters: [The price is fair, Tong Suo is not bullied!]

As soon as the little female ghost in the twins looked up and saw Pei Yan and Gu Yu looking here, she hurriedly waved the freshly made lotus lantern in her hand at them, and said sweetly: "Brother and sister, buy a lotus lantern, our lotus lantern can not only pray for blessings and wishes, but also send blessings to the deceased family, and the price is also very cost-effective!"

The little male ghost next to him also looked over, saw the two holding hands, rolled his eyes, and immediately said: "Last time, a little brother bought a lotus lamp from us and gave it to the little sister, and the little sister kissed him happily!"

Pei Yan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and pointed to the lamp in his hand, "Then get me two." ”

"Okay!" Seeing that the deal was done, the two little imps looked at each other and smiled, handed them the lotus lantern and matches, and instructed: "After making a wish, light the candle and give it to the uncle who rowed over there, and he will help you deliver the lotus lantern!"

Gu Yu thanked him, took the lamp and walked to the shore, glanced at Pei Yan on his side, the corners of his lips slowly hooked, lowered his head and closed his eyes, and thought silently in his heart.

"I wish Pei Yan a smooth career and good health, and second, I wish Pei Yan and Pei Yan will stay together and grow old together. ”

The candles were soon lit, and the candlelight illuminated the lotus flowers even more beautifully, and the two lotus lanterns were slowly lowered into the water and fluttered downstream.

"Pei Yan, what wish did you make?"

"Doesn't it mean that if you say your wishes, they won't work?"

"Makes sense... How many wishes did you make?"

"Two. ”

"Oh- let me guess, one has something to do with your parents and one has something to do with me, right?"

Pei Yan smiled and said nothing.

"Did I guess right? Surely, right..."

The footsteps of the two gradually faded away, and the two lotus lanterns floating on the river suddenly swirled, the petals were close together, and the candlelight reflected each other, slowly turning into a warm yellow light, disappearing into the mist on the water.
