Chapter Seventy-Five: The Ghost Pet Shop

Looking at this spectacular scene in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh:

"Is this the legendary Spirit City?"

Master Dong nodded and said:

"Yes, this is Lingcheng, but this is the main gate of Lingcheng, Su Chunxiao shouldn't have entered from here, let's just follow the origami."

The more time passes, the more worried I am in my heart, there is not much time left in the little devil's game, and finding Su Chunxiao's lost soul seems more difficult than imagined, such a large spiritual city, it has been so long, where has Su Chunxiao gone?

She is alone, will she be bullied? What does she eat and where does she live?

The more I think about these problems, the more anxious I become.

Master Dong handed me a kid and said:

"It is estimated that there will be more people in the front, so you should drink this willow leaf juice in advance."

I took the kid and opened it to see that it contained a leaf-green liquid and smelled of fresh plants, and I asked:

"What is this for?"

Master Dong patiently explained to me:

"We are already in the range of the Spirit City now, most of them are yin spirits and evil spirits, so we must disguise the human smell on our bodies, so as not to encounter unnecessary trouble, willow leaves belong to yin, and squeezing juice and drinking can hide the yang energy in the body for a short period of time."

I nodded in realization, and then swallowed it all in one gulp without hesitation.

I felt a chill from my throat to my stomach, and I noticed that my skin seemed to be changing, and I looked up at it, only to see that my skin had lost its color and had become pale and bloodless.

It's amazing, I guess my face has turned pale.

At this time, Master Dong followed the origami in front of him and turned to the right, and the people around him gradually increased.

And I found that there were so many people like us.

They wore black robes, gray robes, and yellow robes, all of all colors, some carrying large bags, some carrying boxes.

I noticed a yellow-robed Taoist who was leading a weak woman with a chain and hurried towards the Spirit City.

I asked curiously:

"Master Dong, what are these people doing? Why do you want to arrest people and send them inside? ”

Master Dong glanced in the direction I pointed, and was not surprised, and said calmly:

"These are ghost catches, July 14 every year, is the only time the spirit city is open to the outside world, these ghost hunts usually catch ghosts and demons, in the name of eliminating harm, but there are also a lot of greedy ghost catchers, they will take this opportunity to catch some wild ghosts to come in and sell, in exchange for what they need."

I was a little surprised and glanced at the yellow-robed Taoist again, he had already entered the Spirit City through a door at this moment.

I was incredulous, so I asked:

"There are still people in Lingcheng who sell ghosts?"

Master Dong flew a little lower, and while looking at the road, he said casually:

"What's so strange about this, Lingcheng is the largest ghost dealer market, big ghosts, small ghosts, male ghosts, female ghosts, glamorous ghosts, ghost ghosts, lucky ghosts, good luck ghosts, all kinds of ghost applications, only what you can't think of, there is nothing you can't buy, where do you think those rich people raise little ghosts from? They were all bought by ghost hunters in Lingcheng, and then sold to rich people at a high price when they returned to the yang world. ”

I gasped in shock, I have heard the report of raising ghosts, it is said that many popular women obviously raise ghosts, among which the actress surnamed Zhang and Zhao have also been photographed by the paparazzi, I used to think it was all hype, but now I completely believe it.

Master Dong reverted back to the topic and reminded me:

"Little brother, remember that we are in Lingcheng, and we can't do more than twenty-four hours, otherwise as soon as the ghost gate is closed, if you want to return to the yang world, you will have to wait until July next year."

Hearing him say this, I began to get anxious again, and I hurriedly asked:

"But, we can find Su Chunxiao's soul in twenty-four hours?"

Master Dong didn't answer me, but pointed to the origami that was slowly falling down in front of him and said:

"It's here! The thirty-ninth gate. ”

Then, he grabbed my wrist and lunged downward.

I just felt like I was bungee jumping, the ground was getting closer and closer to me, and finally suddenly I lifted up, and we finally hit the ground.

I flew for a long time, and when I stepped on the ground at this time, I felt that my legs and stomach were a little weak and I couldn't adapt to it.

The place where we landed was a large meadow, and the grass on the ground was gray, to be precise, everything here was colorless.

After tidying up a little, the two of us began to walk towards the small gate of Lingcheng one after the other.

When he walked to the door, Master Dong suddenly seemed to think of something, turned around and said:

"By the way, Lingcheng is different from the mortal world, and the requirements for spiritual power are halved, so the broken sword in your bag can be used about three times in Lingcheng, and it can be used to save your life at critical moments."

This is undoubtedly a bonus for me, and being able to use it three times is better than not being able to use it once, and this is also my only hole card.

Just look at it from above, I thought this door was very good, and I saw it up close, this door is three stories high, and there is a fierce dog statue at the top of the door, which is very imposing and lifelike.

When we entered, I realized that although it was big, there weren't as many people as I expected.

As soon as you enter the door, there is an ancient street, although there are few people on the street, but there are shops on both sides, all kinds, there are also teahouses and hotels, which are no different from ancient times.

Not long after I left, I was attracted to a shop.

This store is not big, but there are a lot of cages in front of the store, the cage is not carefully looked at and thought it is a small pet, and when I got closer, I realized that this iron cage was full of wild ghosts, but it was miniaturized, and it became a palm-sized variety of things, among which most of the bewitching beauties were beautiful.

I glanced at the signboard, which had two traditional characters written on it, and it was not difficult to recognize: ghost pet.

The boss was a middle-aged man with sharp beaks and monkey cheeks, and when he saw me staring at the cage with curious eyes, he immediately came out and said with a smile:

"Little Daoye, which gadget do you like? It's not in the way to buy it back and play around. ”

I heard him call me like this, and instantly asked vigilantly:

"How do you know I'm not a Yin Spirit?"

The boss smiled with a hippie smile, looked familiar, and said:

"Hey! I, Hu Laosan, have been selling ghosts here for more than 50 years, what is the little ghost like, it's not me who blows, I can see it at a glance, Xiao Dao Ye is a master at a glance, right? ”

The boss originally said to me, but when he saw Master Dong coming, he turned his head and smiled at him again.

I saw that many of these little ghosts in the store had a melancholy and sad expression, and there was even a little girl sitting in a cage crying, seeing this, I instantly thought of Su Chunxiao, if she was caught by these people, would she be put into a cage to be traded

Master Dong probably saw my mood, nodded at the boss, and pulled me away.

The boss was not angry, and when he saw us leaving, he immediately shouted respectfully:

"The two Daoists walked slowly, I thought about it, and then I came over and had a look."

Seeing that I was depressed, Master Dong said:

"There are too many unfair things in the world, you see those little ghosts are pitiful, those are their lives, thousands of little ghosts, can you save them?"

"Let's find Su Chunxiao first."

Master Dong's words also woke me up, now Su Chunxiao's soul has no whereabouts, time has passed little by little, although he successfully came to Lingcheng, but it is too difficult to find Su Chunxiao's soul within twenty-four hours.

Just as we came to a corner, Master Dong suddenly frowned and shouted:

"Oops! Origami was snatched away! ”

After speaking, Master Dong raised his leg and chased forward, and the speed was so fast that it disappeared in just two breaths.
