Chapter 634: Bronze Bridge Lock Suzaku (Ninety-Four)
When Sanqing and the thin man arrived at Wuzhen next door, the sun was about to set at the bottom of Changbai Mountain, compared with Zhangjia Town, where they stayed, this Wuzhen had to fight a lot, but the population seemed to be much less than Zhangjia Town, especially the market in the center of the town, there were basically no vendors in this shop, and the shops on the street were still open.
"This ghost place, stranger than our pimple, as soon as the sun sets, people are like seeing ghosts, and those who dare to walk on the road when it gets dark are either bold or crazy! Oh, by the way, there is a possibility that they came from other places, and they don't know the rules of this place when they first arrive. The thin man parked the car on the side of the road next to the central market in Wuzhen, looked at the market that had no one left, and said quietly.
"What, could it be that there is something in this place?" After listening to the thin man's words, Sanqing was a little curious, and he asked while rolling down the window and sniffing the air outside the window. He didn't smell anything demonic, but instead smelled a burst of fresh air, and there was a faint fragrance of flowers in the air.
"I'm not sure, but I've heard some people say they've seen something unclean, and some people say it's all, and the reason why no one goes out on the street at night is just because of the centuries-old customs of this town, and some people wander the streets every night and still live a good life. After Sanqing asked, the thin man immediately answered.
"Where did you say you saw the old man selling books before?" Sanqing asked as he retracted his head back into the car and looked at the thin man.
"It's not far ahead, at the corner of the bazaar and Wen Lane!" replied the thin man.
"Go over and see if he's there!" Sanqing said in a deep voice.
"Well, the car can't go!" said the thin man, rubbing his head.
"Then get out of the car and go!" Sanqing said this, and then pushed the door open and got out of the car, the thin man saw Sanqing get out of the car, quickly turned off the engine and got out of the car, and then took Sanqing to the Wenxiang he said.
"This is it!" said the thin man, pointing to his feet as he walked around the corner of the main street of the market and Wen Lane.
Sanqing walked into Wen Lane, and the Wen Lane, which was slightly larger than Dog Lane, was empty. There is a square mark where the thin man is standing, which should have been left behind for many years, and Sanqing also knew that the old man who sold books either did not come today, or had already left.
"That's not right! he should still be setting up a stall at this time!" Looking at the empty Wen Lane, the thin man looked a little surprised, and said to himself while scratching his head.
"Usually he is still setting up a stall at this time?" Hearing the thin man's words, Sanqing immediately stepped forward and asked.
"That's right, this old man is different from others, people set up stalls during the day and hide at night, but he only comes out every day before the sun sets, one stall, and he sets up three watches until midnight, and I don't know if he sells books to the living or the dead!"
"Set up a stall at night, then it seems that this old man is really a little unusual!" After listening to the thin man's words, Sanqing came to such a conclusion.
"It's not just a little, it's quite strange!" said the thin man, as if he was afraid of being heard.
"Since he only came out to set up a stall at night, will there be something delayed today, or we will wait here, maybe we can wait for him to set up a stall!" Sanqing said after thinking about it.
After hearing Sanqing's words, the thin man's face instantly turned pale, full of fear, and he twisted and pinched for a long time before he spoke: "This, I heard people say that this place is not peaceful at night, isn't it okay to stay here at night?"
"Isn't it peaceful? Isn't there still me, what are you afraid of?" Sanqing heard that the thin man didn't want to stay, so he immediately narrowed his eyes and questioned.
"No, no, it's just a little worried, in case something happens, isn't it?" the thin man heard this, worried about the excitement Sanqing, and quickly explained with a hippie smile. But I secretly thought in my heart, you are an archmage, of course you are not afraid of high mana, but I am just a mortal little common man, if this really jumps out of a group of demons and monsters, of course you can protect yourself, if you are not careful to be copied by some monsters, then the one who suffers must be hiding behind.
"The next time I see Li Laosan, I have to ask him why he accepted such a coward from you in the first place!" Sanqing pretended to be angry and scolded, the thin man frowned, uneasy. Thinking that if I didn't agree today, I would offend two people I couldn't afford to provoke, but if I agreed, my life would be in danger at any time, so I hesitated for a while.
"Okay, don't be embarrassed, just leave if you want, I'll just wait here myself!" Sanqing glared at the thin man, said angrily, and then sat directly on the steps against the wall next to him, ignoring the thin man.
Seeing that Sanqing seemed to be really angry, the thin man was extremely frightened, gritted his teeth, and decided to stay.
"Master, master, don't be angry, am I a thin man like that? I was joking with you just now, joking!" said the thin man who temporarily put away the worries and trepidations in his heart, squeezed out his trademark smiling face and pasted it in front of Sanqing.
Sanqing glared at him, and didn't speak, as if telling the thin man that it was too late to admit his mistake.
"Master, just spare me, I promise that I will never dare to go west if you let me go east in the future!" Seeing this, the thin man hurriedly begged for mercy.
"So, Master, I'm thirsty now, go buy a bottle of water for Master!" Sanqing stared at the thin man for a while, and then said faintly.
"Okay, let's go!" the thin man agreed, and then turned around and ran out of Wen Alley, no longer afraid of suddenly jumping out of something.
Besides, after Sanqing and the thin man left, Lin Danhong made dinner with the help of Fan Youwei, and this dinner was a dinner of game and good wine, and the work was swept away after a while. After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms, leaving Lin Danhong standing alone in the courtyard waiting for Sanqing.
At eight o'clock in the evening, there was finally a knock on the door, Lin Danhong thought that Sanqing was back, and hurriedly ran over to open the door, but after opening the door, what he saw was not Sanqing, but a woman in black, Lin Danhong suddenly became curious, and asked: "Who are you looking for?" After that, he began to look up and down at the uninvited guest in front of him.
"I'm looking for Li Sanqing, he lives here!" the woman replied, her voice was a little low, and as soon as these words came out, Lin Danhong's eyes suddenly widened.
