Time flies very quickly, and before I know it, it has been three months since I entered Yin City, and I have basically adapted to life in the Longevity Hotel. In fact, except for the fact that I rarely go out, and the occasional ghost screaming at night wakes me up, life is quite stable.

However, I didn't go to the underworld just to come here to eat, but I always wanted to walk around and have a look, and I saw a long time.

So, I made an appointment with Cao Zhe to get together for a few days. He is in the city guards, and he often has to go to the top of the cave to patrol, and he should be very familiar with the streets and alleys of Zuoqiu City, and he is not afraid of getting lost when he goes out with him. Moreover, Cao Zhe could always find some insider information in Shangcheng, but he couldn't find anyone to talk to, so I became his best confidant.

On this day, it was time for Cao Zhe to take a turn off, so I asked the shopkeeper Teng Shuli to take a half-day off to look for him. The two of us are going to go to Youshi today, it is still very mysterious to me, I have followed Zhao Laodao before, and left in a hurry after buying the ingredients we need. Today, I made up my mind to open my eyes.

The security in the right city is obviously worse than in the left city, there are ghosts fighting everywhere, and there are many idle thieves and thieves hiding in the corners and looking at us with bad intentions. Cao Zhe had expected this, so he simply wore the uniform of a city guard to go shopping, but he didn't wear a helmet and protective gear. And he also carried a waist knife with him, which played a good role in deterring Xiaoxiao.

The shops in the right market are also very chaotic, and the streets are crooked, unlike the left market, which can be clearly divided into the first street and the first street, like a maze. Most of the shops in the right market are hewn out of natural stone walls, stone platforms and huge stones, some large and some small, and the gaps between the boulders are left as alleys, and the open places are like small squares, and the narrow places can only accommodate one person to pass through.

As a result, there will inevitably be many dark corners and dead ends in the right market. In addition, many stone pillars and stone walls obstruct the view, even if there are city guards patrolling the top of the cave 24 hours a day, it is impossible to fully take into account the various emergencies below.

Cao Zhe said: "This part of the right city is the most difficult area in the lower city, and all kinds of large and small forces are entangled and fighting. It's okay during the day, our city guards dare to come down alone to enforce the law, not after the curfew! If you place an order in such a place, even if you are like us, you may not be able to guarantee your own safety! ”

"Why are so many living people coming to such an unsafe place?" I wondered. Although there are not as many people living in the right market as in the left market, there are many people who come and go.

"Because all kinds of shady things are traded here, and if there is demand, there is a market." Cao Zhe said, "Moreover, not only do living people like to come to the right market, but there are also shops opened by living people in this right market!" ”

"Who would be bold enough to come here and open a store? Don't you want to die? ”

"Hey! In order to make money, there are always people who are willing to take risks! ”

Indeed, there are still many industries in the right market that are not in the left market, and they are doing all kinds of shady businesses. Along the way, I saw several gambling stalls, some of which were openly set up on the streets. These are illegal acts in the yang world, but no one will care about them in the underworld.

If there is gambling, "yellow" is indispensable. The wine shops and green buildings in the right city are lined up one after another, and they are very lively. All kinds of male and female ghosts are in and out of it, staggering, guessing fist orders, laughing wantonly, and the degree of depravity is even worse than that of the sun, which is simply unsightly!

In fact, in terms of function, the right market is like the black market in the underworld, but it is more rampant and blatant than the black market in the yang world. Many shops and stalls are selling all kinds of things of unknown origin, including those selling yin cultivation and ghost cultivation exercises.

I guess the ghost knew that it was the nameless exercise book that I found from here. But that time I did it myself, and I really couldn't blame him.

As I walked, I saw a lot of ghosts with distinctive looks in front of a row of shops. Some have a single horn on their head, or two curved horns like bull's horns; Some have spikes and hoops on their shoulders or elbows, just like the bikers in Gothic leather coats in the sun, except that these ornaments grow directly on the body.

What's more, some of the ghosts have long, curved tusks from their mouths, like ivory, and even from their nostrils. Several of the oni's hands have been transformed into a scimitar or axe, as if fusing the weapon with the body.

"What's that store in there? Where did these ghosts come from? I asked Cao Zhe.

"That's the ghost refining shop, and the ghost alchemists inside can use secret methods to change the appearance and appearance of ghosts." Cao Zhe replied, "In fact, it's similar to a tattoo parlor in the yang world, and the aesthetic concept of ghosts in the underworld is not the same as that of us living people, so they like to toss themselves and make themselves more scary." ”

"Well, if it's the yang world, this kind of dress will be scared to death!"

"But in addition to being scary, alchemy is also quite practical. A more powerful ghost refiner can drastically change the shape of the ghosts, making them taller and stronger, or add a hand and an eye. Even, it's possible to get a three-headed six-armed out! ”

"So powerful?"

Most of the customers who entered and exited the ghost refining shops were ghosts, and the ghosts standing at the door were obviously showing off their freshly made "tattoos" to each other. However, there are also individual customers who are living people, and they do not see any change in their appearance after they come out.

"What are people doing in this kind of shop?"

"Oh, I should go and add something to my ghost slave too!" Sure enough, Cao Zhe still knows a lot. He said disapprerovingly: "Especially the ghost slave who was raised to be a thug, the more fierce and vicious, the better!" ”

There are several ghost refining shops on this street, and business seems to be quite good. When I walked to the door of the last lonely shop, I saw a little ghost soliciting business at the door, but it looked very strange and ridiculous. Its head is full of horns, some curved, some straight, and some spiral, but they are all small and short, and they are not scary at all.

And it is also painted with all kinds of quaint patterns, some are engraved in yin and some are engraved in yang. The style of the pattern is not the same, there are cloud and thunder patterns, zigzag patterns, and paper patterns. The most ridiculous thing is that it has one pattern tattooed on its chest, another on its back, and different tattoos on its arms and thighs. These horns and patterns don't seem to be practical, are they "tattoos"?

Cao Zhe also saw the ghost and said with a smile: "Hey! The owner of the store deliberately made it like this, to show off his craftsmanship, and it can be regarded as an advertising ghost specially used to attract customers! ”

The "advertising ghost" also seemed to notice that we were looking at it, and frequently looked this way. But Cao Zhe was wearing the uniform of a city guard, and he definitely didn't look like a guest who would come to patronize the ghost refining shop, so he didn't take the initiative to come up and shout.

Still, I thought it looked familiar in some places, but I couldn't remember why. I've never seen it at all, and I've never been to this place. Alas, but in this Yin City, I have seen too many ghosts, maybe I can't say where I have actually seen them.

So, Cao Zhe and I didn't care, and continued to move on. Walking to a small square, we finally saw a ghost gang selling ghost slaves. The ghost slave trade is a legal business in the Yin City, and it is also the most profitable business in the right market. There are only human rights here, no ghost rights!

Although I hated this kind of ghost slave trade, I couldn't help my curiosity, so I pulled Cao Zhe over to take a look.

Each ghost slave wears a collar around its neck with the name of its master written on it. It was a special genital, and it could not be opened without the master's key. The ghost slave for sale also had a sign on his chest with a price code written on it, ranging from a few Yin Yuan to several hundred Yin Yuan. The most ordinary ghosts generally only sell for three or five yin yuan, which is really cheap!

The price of each ghost slave is obviously determined by their size and appearance, and individual ghosts with special abilities can also increase their value. For example, some strong ghosts have a price tag of more than double digits, and it is especially useful to buy them back as ghost servants or thugs. However, Teng Shuli, the owner of the Longevity Hotel, has never liked to use ghost slaves, and he is not even willing to invite ghost guards.

In addition to strong male ghosts, which will be more sought-after, good-looking female ghosts are also popular, and most of the buyers are ghosts rather than people. Ghosts don't have a physical body, but they also have spiritual needs, and it's normal to buy a female ghost to go back as a companion. Some ghost gang bosses like to engage in three wives and four concubines, looking for the feeling of a false phoenix.

When we used to join in the fun, we happened to run into the ghost gang who were auctioning off a few special ghosts. A vicious-looking ghost with two long fangs sticking out of the corner of his mouth took a long leather whip and threw it into the air a few times, making a crisp "crackling" sound to greet business.

He yelled, "Come, come, come! The auction is about to begin! The ghost slaves of our Wolf Tooth Gang are all good and good goods at a low price! Let's pick them all and take a look! ”

At this time, there were about thirty or fifty people and ghosts around the scene, and the fanged ghost saw that he was almost drunk, so he made a gesture behind him, and the other two ghost minions with fangs in their mouths led up a ghost slave.

The ghost slave was tall and fat, and his movements were slow, and he was a cut above the boss of ordinary ghosts. said it was pulling, but in fact, those two ghost minions took a lot of effort to pull it to the stage. However, this big ghost seems to be a little silly, sleepy-eyed, and drooling at the corners of his mouth.

"Let's not talk nonsense, open the first business, I'll give everyone a real one first!" The fanged ghost said in a loud voice, it seems that it is the leader of this ghost gang that specializes in selling ghost slaves.

"This ghost slave is nine feet three inches tall and weighs four hundred and fifty pounds! Big shoulders and round waist, full of strength! After you buy it back, whether you do rough work or use it as a meat shield, it's no problem! ”

One zhang is about three meters, one foot is about 30 centimeters, and one inch is about three centimeters. Converted, the height of this ghost slave has reached two meters seventy-nine, and it is also a rare big man in the ghost group.
