Chapter Ninety-Four: The Bazaar

Yue Shan stared at me for a while, and suddenly said hatefully:

"You're simply changing concepts! Do you think everyone else is stupid? You're a fool, a clever liar! ”

"Shan!" Wang Xizhen pulled her, his face was displeased, but he didn't know what to say at this time.

I was indifferent, and just said to Yue Shan lightly:

"I don't know how Professor Gu taught you, but I know that my teacher told me that no matter what accident you encounter, you must first maintain absolute calm. If this cannot be done, then there are two options, one is to face it silently, not to participate in any work, and not to express any opinions; The second is - leave the scene! ”

"If you want me to say, it's also a burden to take her with you, so it's better to let her stay away as soon as possible." Jinghai is soft and cold.

Without waiting for others to speak, he continued: "It's okay to ask her to follow, but once she spoils our big business, the Buddha promises that she won't have to go back." ”

Yue Shan was still glaring at me, but when she heard the old monk say this, and saw him staring at her with seven points of slaughter in his eyes, she couldn't help but tremble with fright, and she didn't dare to speak out anymore.

Wang Xizhen stood behind her and nodded gratefully at me.

He is a smart person, and he is somewhat familiar with Yue Shan's personality, so he naturally knows that even if some things can be explained clearly in a few words, whether Yue Shan can accept them is another matter. It's better to be like now, I sing and harmonize with Jinghai, and ask for a temporary peace.

Ghost markets, perhaps many people are no strangers.

Of course, this kind of ghost market refers to a special kind of market in the real world.

In the earliest ghost markets, most of the items sold were from unknown origins, some were stolen goods, and some were sold by the declining princes who couldn't get along and sold the property handed down from their ancestors. The former is not able to see the light, and the latter is afraid of losing face. Therefore, the trading starts in the middle of the night, and at dawn, the market disperses.

According to the rules, there are never lights in the ghost market, and the people who visit the ghost market are either carrying lanterns or holding flints, and the shadows of the faint lights are erratic, just like ghosts walking at night, which is the origin of the ghost market.

There is another theory about the ghost market, which is that the ancient people lacked understanding of certain natural phenomena, and on rainy and foggy days, they saw an ethereal town pavilion suddenly appeared in the haze in the distance, and they thought it was a market opened by ghosts in the underworld.

Because this kind of legendary ghost market often appears on the top of the mountain peak or on the sea, it is also called the mountain market and the sea market.

Now we all know that the so-called mountain market and sea market are nothing more than mirages.

What our group is in at the moment is not a world that ordinary people are familiar with, and the ghost market we are facing naturally has nothing to do with these two.

When I got closer, I saw that it was a street that was not very wide.

After stepping into this street and walking a few steps, we all felt that something was wrong.

There are many stalls on both sides of the road, some selling food and some for fun, at first glance, it looks similar to my impression of a market in the countryside, or a night market now.

It's just that not only are there no pedestrians on the road, but even the stalls are unattended.

The fat man couldn't help but whisper at first: "Why doesn't this ghost city even have a ghost?" Could it be that we came too early and haven't started business yet? ”

I glanced at him sideways and asked him not to talk nonsense, and quickly asked Duan Jiayin, where is the blind man.

The fat man regained his sad face and shook his head, "Jiayin said, she and Liu Bing said that they would let the person surnamed Liu wait for us here, but there was no agreement, and there was no agreement on where to wait." ”

"Then look for it! Start looking in the streets! "Shizukaido.

I was just about to nod my head, when I suddenly heard Yue Shan say, "There is someone in front!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

I whispered a word to her, and when I looked up, I really saw a figure walking hurriedly this way.

The light of the ghost market is so dim that I can't see the man's face clearly.

When the man approached, I was too scared to dig a hole in the ground.

This person's face is as black as the bottom of a pot, and it is extremely ugly, it is actually one of the two ghosts who went to Uncle Sun Lu's house during the day and was later targeted by me!

I couldn't hide as soon as I saw it, so I simply gritted my teeth, put my right hand behind my back, and secretly pinched a magic seal, just waiting for him to step forward, and I unexpectedly 'get' him.

Unexpectedly, when this guy saw us, he was stunned at first, then lowered his head, pretended not to see, and even took a step to the side, just bypassed us and left in a hurry.

When he disappeared, the fat man pulled me, "I'll go, isn't that a ghost in the daytime?" Why didn't he arrest us, didn't even ask, and seemed to be deliberately avoiding us? ”

If he didn't say the last sentence, I didn't realize anything, but when I heard him say it, and then I thought back to the look of the black-faced ghost just now, I suddenly remembered one thing, and I almost didn't laugh out loud.

I couldn't help but smile and glanced at Jing Hai, and saw that the corners of the old monk's eyes and eyebrows showed three points of disdain, and I was even more convinced of my thoughts.

I grinned at Wang Xizhen, "The preparations during the day were finally done in vain, the ghosts here, including the one just now...... That 'black charcoal head' should have gone to get money from all over the world. ”

Except for Yue Shan wrinkling her eyebrows and glaring at me, Wang Xizhen and the fat man finally suddenly realized.

The money of the four directions is the money of the ownerless, and the money of the dead means the blessing of the next life to the dead ghosts.

We burned so much paper money during the day, and with this opportunity to take it for nothing, the ghosts were all moved, and those ghosts who were supposed to wander in the bazaar were not even more flocking to it?

Wang Xizhen sighed with emotion: "It turns out that ghosts are the same as people...... It seems that money can make the ghost grind is really not made up, money is easy to use anywhere. ”

Burning money from all over the world was originally for convenience and peace, but the effect exceeded expectations.

The group did not dare to delay, but searched for the blind man all the way along the empty ghost market.

As he was about to reach the end of the street, there was a sudden sound of women and children crying and wailing in front of him.

The voice was small, but it drifted in the emptiness...... The bazaar was empty, but it looked extremely miserable.

Looking at the sound, at the end of this market, there is a spire-like shed that looks like a canopy built by the grass platform troupe that performed in the country market at the temple fair in the past.

The crying seemed to come from the hut.

The sound was so miserable that I frowned unconsciously.

The rest of the people, including Jinghai, also subconsciously quickened their pace, just like me.

However, just as I heard the human voice and was about to rush over, all of a sudden, I was attracted by a strange feeling that was indescribably indescribable, and I stopped abruptly almost without thinking about it.

Stopping at the same time as me, there was also Shi Fatzi.

I wasn't sure what that sudden feeling meant, and I didn't know why I stopped.

looked at the fat man, but he just looked confused.

I already decided that this fat guy was unreliable, and when I saw him looking stupid, I didn't bother to ask him anything, I just closed my eyes and felt it carefully, opened my eyes, and subconsciously walked to the side.

It was like a second-hand clothes stall, and I couldn't see what was going on behind it because it was obscured by hanging clothes.

But when I followed that inexplicable feeling and interspersed from the two stalls to the back, at first glance, I saw a figure squatting behind the old clothes stall!
