Chapter 744: Ghost City Matters
This is a huge valley, surrounded by towering peaks, the area of the valley is very large, but it is not very neat, occasionally there are mountains undulating, rivers shuttle, and in the valley, attics are scattered everywhere, across the distance, Li Yi can hear the voices of people inside.
"Grandpa, that old man, it's not simple!"
On the way, Fu Qing said in a low voice.
"You found out too?"
Li Yi sighed.
"Well, my subordinates have found some anomalies!"
"Tell me about it!"
Li Yi asked with interest.
"First of all, at the beginning, before we spoke, the old man discovered our existence, we are all people who practice martial arts, and we usually walk lightly, and it is difficult for ordinary people to hear the sound. And the old man not only heard our approach, but also accurately heard our numbers, which is terrible! ”
Li Yi nodded with deep understanding, and then motioned for Fu Qing to continue.
"Then, when Brother Bai lost his words, the old man actually exuded a compelling momentum, although it was fleeting, but his subordinates could feel it, it was terrifying!"
Li Yi nodded again, he also felt this momentum, at that time, he and Fu Qing were closest to the old man, and they felt it the most, and he was shocked to sweat at that time.
It sounds a bit fantastical, as if it is a fantasy world, but this momentum does exist, it is not a martial arts, but an indescribable spiritual oppression, just like Li Er, if he releases his momentum, ordinary people don't even have the courage to speak, this is the momentum that can only be cultivated in a high position all year round.
"In the end, it is the old man's body and strength, our way, fourteen people, two boats, the river is not in a hurry, but the old man rowed without any effort, and, after arriving at the shore, his face is not red, he is not panting, and even his breathing is not disordered in the slightest.
Li Yi sighed and nodded again.
"Alas, the master is in the folk, this is the existence of the legendary sweeping monk, I have to say, this ghost city is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!"
Fu Qing looked at Li Yi's emotional appearance, and suddenly quipped: "Grandpa is afraid?" ”
If you stay with Li Yi for a long time, you will become improper, and Li Yi has a good temper, and he usually doesn't lose his temper.
Li Yi glanced at Fu Qing sideways, and said lightly: "You kid seems to have a tight skin, do you want me to practice you personally?" ”
Fu Qing hurriedly shook his head, he didn't dare to let Li Yi take action in person, it was purely to find guilt.
"However, what you said is not coarse, such a big stumbling block, anyone will feel a lot of pressure. However, the greater the pressure, the greater the harvest, this ghost city is certainly a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, but once we conquer here, this strange peak, mysterious ghost market will be ours, you say, if we build the national security headquarters here in the future, is it better than what Hades Palace? ”
When Fu Qing heard this, his eyes straightened, Li Yi didn't say it, he really hadn't thought about it, but now that he thought about it, he couldn't help but be excited, if this place could become the headquarters of the Ministry of State Security, it would be really great.
There is no comparison between the Hades Hall and this place at all, if this is the real Netherworld, then the Hades Hall is just an inconspicuous City God Temple, and the two are not comparable at all.
Moreover, this is not impossible, the existence of the Ministry of State Security is to supervise the legal system of the world, and the existence of ghosts is the biggest stumbling block of the Ministry of State Security.
"Grandpa, rest assured, my subordinates will definitely assist Grandpa, eradicate the ghost market, and conquer the martial arts!"
Li Yi pursed his lips and did not speak again.
Eradicate the ghost market? Conquer the martial arts? Which is so easy?
Li Yi knew in his heart that behind the ghost market was the family, and this matter was ostensibly a war between the Ministry of State Security and Wulin, but in fact, it was a battle between the court and the family, and he and the ghost market were just chess pieces.
Li Yi even guessed that the reason why Li Er asked him to come here meant that he was ready to go to war with the family?
This matter is too complicated, it seems that he is going to visit the master tomorrow, and it just so happens that he has not eaten the red stewed lion head of the master for a long time, and he is really a little greedy.
For the inner market, everyone is blinded, even Shangguan, who claims to know everything, has become vague after entering the ghost market, and he doesn't even know where Taishang Pavilion is.
There was no way, everyone could only ask someone.
Fortunately, Taishang Pavilion has a great reputation, after all, it is the strength of the imperial court, and it is impossible to be conspicuous.
Everyone followed the guidance and soon found the location of the Taishang Pavilion.
Taishang Pavilion, the name sounds like an attic, but in fact, it is a courtyard built on a hillside more than ten meters high, there are more than a dozen rooms in it, and the area alone is half the size of the Li Mansion.
Li Yi stood on a high place, observed for a while, and then went to call the door.
The door was opened by a cold-faced man dressed in black.
The man's face was cold, and his temperament was even colder, Li Yi was kicked out without even entering the gate, Rao is Li Yi is good-tempered, and he couldn't help but want to beat the man violently.
However, in order not to cause trouble, Li Yi still held back, fortunately, he learned from the cold-faced man that Aoki had left the ghost market last night, and there was no problem with his body, it seemed that he was just scratched by the Tibetan mastiff, and there was no big problem.
Li Yi came mainly for Aoki this time, and although he didn't see Aoki now, he could be regarded as having completed the task.
A few people walked around the ghost market again, but there are many factions in the ghost city, and there are many mysterious and domineering places, no one is allowed to visit at all, the internal forces of the ghost city, and they also have the meaning of sweeping the snow in front of each other, and there are few contacts, the entire inner city, looks unusually weird, despite the existence of tens of thousands of people, it makes people feel unusually deserted, very much like a ghost town,
It is worth mentioning that when returning to the city, there are special boatmen, they are serious boatmen, not only asking for a fair price, but also very enthusiastic, and the river that goes back does not seem to be the river when he came, Li Yi also did not see the existence of the old man, as if he had never appeared, everything seemed very weird, Rao was Li Yi's strong heart, and he couldn't help muttering, it was too weird.
Back at the Huangquan Tavern in the outer city, everyone got together again, Li Yi was ready to say goodbye to Shangguan, although the ghost market was not open during the day, but with his identity, it was not a problem to leave.
"What, do you want to come home with me?"
Although they got along for two days, Li Yi really felt a little sympathy for Shangguan, Shangguan's temperament was very temperamental to him, and even made Li Yi find the feeling of a buddy in later generations, so he was also very attentive to Shangguan.
"No, I still have something to do in the city, when I'm done, I'll go to my brother!"
Li Yi nodded and didn't ask much.
"It's okay, if you kid has something that can't be solved, come to Li Mansion to find me, in this Chang'an City, there are few things that our buddies can't solve!"
Shangguan was a little moved, but he still shook his head stubbornly.
"Still can't do it, I want to try it myself!"
Li Yi didn't say anything more, and threw his Huangquan membership card to Shangguan, there were still a lot of deposits in it, enough for Shangguan to squander, Shangguan was not hypocritical, and took the membership card very naturally.
Li Yi and Shangguan exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then slowly left the ghost market with everyone.
The experience of one day and one night made Li Yi feel as if he had walked in another world.
In this ghost city, he will come back after all.
