Chapter 34: The Ghost Market
Encountering two weirdos in a row, Qin Feng was very puzzled in his heart, what kind of place was this, why were there so many strange things.
Qin Feng is not bothering about these two weirdos, instead of asking them, it is better to go and see for yourself, there are many people in the market, and there are naturally many stalls and shops, Qin Feng is very curious about what to buy here will attract so many people to buy things in this street market, he gathered to the nearest stall to look at the goods, but these goods made his face dark.
This stall is not large, only about two square meters, there is a plastic sheet on the ground, on which are placed sacks of burlap, on which are written the names of the goods, there are ant legs, spider eyelashes and other strange things, this reminds Qin Feng of the previous joke that someone said to buy these things for a high price, if he came here, I don't know if he will put this kind of big talk, the stall owner is a middle-aged man wearing a yellow Taoist robe, his hair is combed into a bun, he closes his eyes as if he is meditating, but when someone touches his goods, he says don't buy it, don't touch it, as if you could see what was happening in front of you.
Qin Feng saw that there was nothing he wanted here, so he got up and left, and the gap he left was immediately blocked by others, some people were bargaining with Taoists, and some people were learning these things.
Qin Feng wandered around the street aimlessly, and he found that although there were many people on this street, it was not noisy, the pedestrians who came and went did not speak, and the vendors did not shout, and even the sound of bargaining was very small, and there were very few people bargaining, and many people bought it in a muffled voice. The street was wide, and there were horse-drawn carriages passing by on them, carrying large bags of things and driving deeper into the street.
"Oh, who are you, walking without looking at the road, you have reached the feet of this young master" It turned out that Qin Feng focused on looking at the stalls on both sides and the carriages on the road, and he didn't look at the road at all, and others would let him go before, but this time he met a gentleman in a white suit and black leather shoes, and he didn't let people come from the opposite side, and he didn't look at the road, so the two of them fell together like this, but it was the eldest young master who stepped on Qin Feng's feet, and Qin Feng felt a wave of disgust in his heart when he heard this, may be the reason why a rich second generation robbed his girlfriend in the first place
"Friend, it was you who stepped on me, it stands to reason that you should apologize to me" Qin Feng felt that it was reasonable to say that this kind of person should pretend to be X and slap his face, he saw the two big men with winding and undulating muscles next to this son, he could pretend to be ...... Play a fart
Before Brother Gongzi could say anything cruel, Qin Feng turned around and ran, not only did Brother Gongzi not react, but his two bodyguards also didn't react.
"What are you still standing to see, chase me" Qin Feng didn't know what the layout was here, anyway, he drilled into the alley when he encountered it, and he only heard shouts from behind, making some people stop and watch.
"Your uncle's is the same as a dog's skin plaster." Qin Feng thought in his heart, but thanks to the running training forced by the school when he was in college, he now has enough physical strength to compete with others, but his physical strength is limited after all, when he was panting and resting on the wall of the street shop, the voice of the boy brother came from behind, Qin Feng gritted his teeth and ran directly to the shop.
There are very few customers in this shop, only two or three people, the store layout is also very quaint, you can see a counter when you enter the door, there are rows of wooden shelves on the left and right, there are some bottles and jewelry on them, there are a few wooden tables in the middle, which is convenient for people to rest, and on the second floor are some rooms, which should be used to receive VIPs, just above the hall is a huge iron shelf, which is placed I don't know what it is, it is the light source in the store, those wooden shelves, Behind the counter, there were some men in black and women in white clothes walking around with things, as if they were classifying, so as soon as Qin Feng entered the door, he was seen by the clerk and came up to entertain Qin Feng enthusiastically.
"What does the guest want to see, antiques or jewelry?" The person who entertained Qin Feng was a twenty or thirty-year-old man, wearing black clothes, black pants, black shoes, and a black hat, with a deliberately smiling face on his face, which made Qin Feng feel hypocritical.
"I don't buy antiques, I don't buy jewelry, I'm being chased, I want to find a place to hide" Qin Feng shook his head helplessly, after all, this kind of thing is very disgraceful, sure enough, when he heard that Qin Feng was to avoid trouble, his face changed suddenly, he knew that in this place, the rules are very important, and generally those who are chased are the ones who cause trouble, this kind of person is okay if he is a victim, if he is the perpetrator, whoever covers you here will break the rules, and the person who breaks the rules is absolutely not allowed to exist in this place.
"That...... Guest officer, it's not that I drove you away, it's really that our small place can't protect you, and when something happens to you, we will also suffer. Just when this reception was embarrassed, a girl who looked to be in her twenties and dressed in a white dress and a white high hat on her head, with the words "You are also here" written on it, with a white whip pinned to her waist, long black hair draped behind her head, a faint blush on her face, and a very serious expression, followed by a man in black clothes who nodded her waist. Qin Feng is very familiar with this woman's dress, isn't this Bai Wuchang's dress? I can be regarded as having met an acquaintance.
"That beauty, I seem to have seen you somewhere" Qin Feng shouted at the woman, and the woman frowned when she heard it, probably thinking in her heart that there were still people who had used this way to talk to her in this way? She usually encountered this situation, so she didn't deliberately pay attention to Qin Feng, she still maintained a cold attitude and planned to go out, Qin Feng was anxious when she saw it, if she let her run away, she would be even more sad in this ghost place, so he took out the seal of his patrol envoy and shouted at Bai Wuchang, who was about to cross the threshold.
"Bai Wuchang, why do you want to run when you see me" Qin Feng attracted the attention of many people in the store with a voice, they were shocked when they saw the seal in Qin Feng's hand, and the woman also ran over to pick up Qin Feng's seal with a surprised look on her face, and about five seconds later, she knelt on one knee, held the seal in both hands and handed it to Qin Feng, and said in her mouth
"Bai Wuchang Yuheng visited the Inspector Envoy, his subordinates were stupid just now, and he didn't recognize the Inspector Envoy, and I hope the Inspector will forgive him" Yuheng confirmed Qin Feng's identity, and those black-clothed and white-clothed clerks also knelt down on one knee and shouted to see the Inspector Envoy, especially the black-clothed clerk who was about to let Qin Feng leave just now, he was all trembling, and his face was full of despair. But Qin Feng didn't blame him, he also followed the boss's orders, just like what he said, Xiao Rou and they would also obey them unconditionally.
"Jade ...... Yuheng, right, you guys get up first, find me a place to hide first, and someone will trouble me later" Qin Feng was still anxious about that son's brother's affairs, and he could hear the voice of that boy's brother bringing someone over.
"You take the inspector to hide first, I'll deal with them" Yu Heng turned around and walked towards the door, and Qin Feng was taken to a room at the back of the store by the middle-aged man who had just sent Yu Heng out, and after a while, someone brought good tea and pastries, Qin Feng was just about to pick up the tea and taste it, the door was pushed open by Yu Heng, and he stood in front of Qin Feng with his head bowed respectfully and humbly.
"Sit, don't stand, I think it's weird when you're standing" Qin Feng didn't like this feeling very much, he was a good young man in the 21st century, how could he make himself the same as a landlord and an old man. But Yu Heng didn't dare to sit down, even if Qin Feng asked her to sit down. Qin Feng felt uncomfortable for a while, but he was still his own little girl, let her sit down and talk to herself, she would sit down and talk to herself, she didn't want to talk to this so hard. Yu Heng saw that Qin Feng's face was very unhappy, and there was a frightened expression on his face, so he half sat on the chair, put his hands on his thighs, and sat very thoughtfully, although Qin Feng still felt very awkward, but he didn't force it so much.
"Yuheng, can you tell me what this place is? How do I get out? Qin Feng expressed his doubts, wasn't he in Putuo Park? How did you get here?
"My lord, this is the ghost market" Next, Yu Heng told Qin Feng the origin and some details of this ghost market.
This ghost market is different from those ghost markets that sell antiques at night, this place is a real place where the yang world and the underworld are connected, there are ghosts, there are living people, there are all kinds of goods here, as long as you pay the starting price, basically anything can be found, so in addition to living people and ghosts, there are also some cultivators and wealthy families will come to visit the ghost market. But this kind of place is often a mixture of fish and dragons, and it is the place where accidents are most likely to happen, and no one can guarantee whether the ghosts will pull the living as substitutes for the dead ghosts, and there is no guarantee that those cultivators will catch ghosts to cultivate the elixir, so the ghost market needs someone to suppress it.
As a result, the ghost market was jointly managed by the high-ranking representatives of the underworld and the representatives of the underworld, who collected taxes and land rent from the merchants, and received money according to the merchants they settled in, which is why both sides encouraged people from their respective worlds to settle in, and the scale of the ghost market gradually expanded.
And it is forbidden to fight in the ghost market, and if there is a contradiction, you can find the ghost city management to be responsible for the trial, once the truth is determined, the punished person will never be allowed to step into the ghost market for half a step, otherwise people and ghosts will be together.
Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, fortunately he didn't fight that boy brother just now, he will definitely need this ghost market in the future, it will not be good if he enters the blacklist. Qin Feng suddenly understood the rules of the ghost market, and he was relieved in his heart, but he still couldn't understand why he came here.
Yu Heng said that the gate of the ghost market is not opened often, probably because there is a Yin River in the place where Qin Feng came.
"Why do you black and white impermanence still shop here?" Qin Feng asked this question after figuring out the situation, it stands to reason that black and white impermanence often hooks the soul, and it should not be bad money.
"There are too many people in black and white impermanence, in addition to supplying the king of Hades, we also have to supply the king, the magistrate and other expenses are too great, Lord Xie and Lord Fan worry about these things all day long, so we also take advantage of the ghost market to make some money" Yu Heng's face was very embarrassed when he said this, after all, the scale of the huge system of black and white impermanence in the underworld is second only to the Yin soldiers, it seems that Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu are in charge of such a large scale It is very beautiful, but the funds of the underworld are limited, and black and white impermanence are living tightly, Eight of the ten ghost kings of the underworld have the same funds, except for the military expenses of the bull head and horse face to manage the yin soldiers, which is the foundation of the security of the underworld, and the eight ghost kings have no opinion, so everyone else has big fish and meat all day long, black and white impermanence eats bran all day long, and in addition to desperately hooking the soul, they also have to worry about the lack of funds.
Qin Feng heard that the days of black and white impermanence were so miserable, and he also felt relieved about the last time he was in the black impermanence pit, Yu Heng came to listen to the opinions of the store today and gave feedback to black and white impermanence, but she didn't expect to meet Qin Feng, so she planned to go back later. It just so happened that Qin Feng wanted to take a look, so Yuheng took the initiative to ask Ying to take Qin Feng to visit the ghost market.
