Chapter 45: The Ghost Market (1)
Although the epidemic in Cloud City has been solved, I always feel that something is wrong with the whole thing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There are no unprovoked epidemics, only hard-to-find sources. I guess it was the strange fog, but that's what makes it even more confusing.
My doubts, my worries, the city lord of Cloud City, Dugu, also understands. During this time, he strengthened the protection of Cloud City, and cooperated with Elder Bai, the guardian of Cloud City, and others to lay various enchantments in Cloud City.
And this is also the best solution in the current situation.
After I woke up, the Cloud City Lord's Mansion set up a banquet and staggered the plans. I sat in the guest seat, holding a turquoise wine cup, and looked at the swordfish county lord who was snuggled next to Dugu Qi in a daze.
There sat Lethe next to me, and he seemed to have drunk a lot, and by the candlelight, his face was slightly red, as if he was a little drunk.
I looked around and saw that the others did the same. I suspect that it may be because there are so many things that have happened during this time, these Huangshan disciples are tired of running around, and this will have a chance to relax, that is, they are drunk, and there is nothing else to think about.
Thinking about it like this, it can be regarded as a happy person!
I looked back and forth between Lethe and the Sailfish Lord, and repeatedly confirmed that the Sailfish Lord really didn't recognize Lethe?!
It stands to reason that after all, it's a familiar brother and sister relationship, even if this Lethe's appearance is covered up and his voice changes slightly. But a person's demeanor and breath can't change. Does the Swordfish Lord really not recognize this brother of hers?
But after a few days of getting along, the Lord of Sailfish really didn't pay any special attention to Lechuan. The lord of Sailfish just heard others call me Ah Leng's wife, and knew that Lechuan was my Ah Leng's husband, and sighed in surprise: Ah Leng, you are already married, so isn't my brother Youyuan out of play?
She said this purely as she blurted it out. I was stunned for a moment, but I realized that she was joking. I have a relationship with you, what is this? I remember when he almost killed me?!
After three days, everything was stable. It seems that the entire cloud city has returned to peace.
Jiufeng received an order from Huangshan and took the disciples of Huangshan back to his master's gate. Ou Rufeng and Feng Ling had not yet completed their training, so they had to return together.
I thought that the gate of the ghost market in Cloud City would be opened, and the medical venerable as the Huangshan Medical Immortal would stay to join in the excitement. Unexpectedly, the Huangshan doctor didn't say a word, and Tuo Miao Keqing brought me a taste of medicine, and then went back to Huangshan.
Miao Keqing said: "Master said that he doesn't like to owe others, this is for you!" ”
I saw that it was a flower on the other side that could pass through yin and yang, so I accepted it. I wanted Miao Keqing to tell the doctor that I really didn't want to save him, but when the words came to my mouth, I always felt that I was too sincere, and it seemed that something was wrong.
But before I could say anything, Miao Keqing snatched my words: "Ah Leng, I know you don't like my master." But he's really innocent, it's just this stinky temper. Master said that you are going to the ghost market, and I will be left to help you! ”
I was surprised, looking at Miao Keqing's face like a flower for a long time.
I always feel that there is a conspiracy here!
The ghost city of Cloud City is caused by the great aura of Cloud City. Even if it is often said that the extremes of things must be opposed, everything has two sides, yin and yang. At the other end of Cloud City's natural attributes suitable for cultivating immortals is the place where yin qi and evil gather. And because there is Phoenix Mountain to protect the world, although the evil spirits are ready to move, they occasionally gather to attack, just like the cloud city epidemic demon also launched an attack this time, but they were all suppressed back.
And the ghost market is the existence space beyond the six realms, which is said to have existed in the world for thousands of years. Open once every ten years, Yin and Yang people can enter the ghost market in exchange for what they want, regardless of life or death, whether they are evil or evil.
And folk rumors say that the ghost market actually has an owner. The ghost master's whereabouts are uncertain, and he often transforms, but he has no appearance at all. But there is a saying in the market: the strangeness of the flowers on the other side, the lovesickness of the Palace of Eternal Life, and the gods and ghosts are connected.
After listening to it, I just think it's not another legend of an infatuated man and a woman?
But how can there be a unique legend? Since the mouth of the world has been wiped all over the place, and then it has become various forms. When you hear it in your ears, how real can you hear it? How much of a fake is it?
I subconsciously touched the white hosta on my head, could it be the acacia of this Palace of Eternal Life, the master of this snow groan? The legendary goddess lovesickness?
But conjecture is always speculation, and there is no way to study it. When the third watch was about to open, the door of the ghost market was about to open, and when I arrived with Lechuan and Miao Keqing, I saw that there were many people standing under a layer of fog.
In fact, because of my mortal body, I can't see anything I can't see.
It wasn't until Miao Keqing snickered and told me that there was a toad standing beside me, that I subconsciously ate the baked cake made of the other side flower given by the Huangshan doctor in half-belief and half-belief.
The entrance of a baked cake not only fills the stomach, but also leads to the eyes of this gloomy ghost market.
When I really saw the toad standing next to me, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows. Except for the fact that the legs of this toad are human, it is really a big prototype, and it is still the kind of toad. It's real, it's, it's, it's too ugly!
Unlike me, Lethe has been reshaped after the mortal catastrophe, and he can see what I can't see. And Miao Keqing is a disciple of Huangshan, so he can also see it.
In this comparison, I subconsciously felt that I was too weak.
At this time, a grumbling flute was suddenly heard in the distance. When I was looking, the gate of the ghost market suddenly opened. Squeak, dull.
At the same time, the surrounding creatures disappeared one by one. When I looked up into the distance again, I could clearly see that the six beings who were still standing and waiting by my side had gone away.
It seems that in an instant, there are only three of us left on this end!
This side reacted, and we looked at each other, and then we followed suit.
Unexpectedly, at this time, an urgent voice suddenly came from behind him: "Wait, wait~"
When I stopped and turned around, I saw a scholar-like man running and waving at our end with a basket on his back.
When this scholar stepped forward panting angrily and also entered the gate of this ghost market, he was like a god, panting and half-squatting and panting, and shouted helplessly: "I finally saw a figure~"
I saw that he was holding a jade flute in his hand, and immediately estimated that the sound of the flute just now was played by this scholar. I was a little puzzled, what did a scholar who seemed powerless to do in this ghost market?
"Scholar, who are you? What are you doing here? Miao Keqing is a straight intestine, and she asked the scholar all the questions.
However, this is also what I want to know~
The three of us stared at this scholar, and there was a great posture that was about to eat him.
The scholar waved his hand, as if he had rested enough, and then straightened up, made a scholarly gesture to the three of us, and said: "Contemptible Chen farewell, it is the warlock of Wanzhong Mountain Wanzhongguan~"
