Follow the ghost old man all the way, I didn't go far ahead, and sure enough, I saw a tall archway, why didn't I see it before? Do you have to let this ghost old man lead you to get in? Well, it doesn't matter so much for now, it's important to go first. On the top of this archway, there are really three big words "more than half a step", the two worlds of yin and yang, half a step is too much, but it is not false at all, people in the yang world, even if they step out of half a step to the underworld, it is also very unlucky, but this ghost market, is called more than half a step, indicating that half a step in the underworld, half a step in the yang, between the two worlds of yin and yang!

When I came to the gate of the archway, the ghost old man still didn't forget to look back at me, and seemed to be sure again and again: "Young man, you, do you really want to go in?" ”

"I'm really going in!"

I nodded in affirmation and smiled.

"Alas! Okay, but you have to be extra careful, it's not very peaceful in the last half step, people often go missing, you must follow me when you go in later, don't run around, I don't know if I can bring you out again, since you insist on going in, let's go in and try your luck......"

The ghost old man almost told the truth, but he obviously kept his mouth shut and didn't tell me directly that the half-step was actually a ghost nest. My heart is the same as Spiegel, since the ghost old man is not picky, I am willing to continue to pretend to be ignorant, but what he says is not peaceful, I don't quite understand what he means, and there are often people missing inside, which is strange, in the ghost market, there are still ghosts missing, if they are missing, where will they disappear?

After speaking, the ghost old man took me step by step through the archway, once the archway, the scene in front of me changed instantly, just now it was still in the desolate col, now, only to see the streets in front, suddenly appeared, and the high gate house, climbing the cloud attic, are staring at the bright moonlight, standing proudly in the ghost market, the area of the ghost market, it is difficult to see the edge at a glance, it seems to be very large, so big that I can not imagine. Compared to the ghost market I encountered before, it can't be said of the same day!

The city wall is about ten zhang high, the wall is vertical and smooth, can not climb, can not be chiseled, that is to say, once the ghost enters this ghost city, it is likely to be trapped in it forever, unable to be reborn! However, the houses here are magnificent, and they show a touch of wealth, so if you live in them as a ghost, it is also a happier choice.

But I don't know what the ghosts who really live in it feel.

Directly opposite is a main street, about ten zhang wide, on both sides are tall doors, domineering disguise, the disguise is more than twice as long as the disguise of the shop in the sun, and hanging on both sides of the door, it looks like a paper building burned to the underworld, if you look at it seriously, there will be a touch of horror in your heart, when something is too serious to ponder, you will naturally feel the horror in it.

There is no wind, nor is it cold, nor is it hot, but from time to time I will stir up, just because the yin qi in it is too heavy, and I can't show the innate qi in my body to resist, so I can only use my body to carry it hard. Soon, I rolled up my sleeves and shivered to the ghost old man in front of me, "Uncle, where is your son and daughter-in-law's shop?" The street in front of it has to be about five or six miles long, and there are countless side streets, large and small dark alleys, and there are countless of them. ”

"Huh?"

When the ghost old man heard my words, he suddenly turned his head to look at me, and then asked in a deep voice, "Do you know that this is a ghost city?!" So, then why are you still coming in? Aren't you afraid of death?! ”

I smiled and nodded, and said, "Uncle, of course I'm afraid of death, and I don't want to die now, but I know I can't die in here!" That's why I dared to come in with you, didn't I? You don't have to worry about me, I'll be fine, and I came here for my purpose, if I don't achieve my goal, I won't go out, correspondingly, if I achieve my goal, even if no one drives me away, I still have to go! ”

"Hehe, you're such a strange person! Little old man, I looked away for the first time, and I didn't know the real person in person! ”

The ghost old man seemed to see that I was a Taoist priest, but he didn't break it, but nodded with a smile, turned around and continued to walk forward with the pick. After a while, I saw that the ghosts on the street suddenly became more and more, and sure enough, as the ghost old man said, this street is really too lively, and this ghost market is several times more lively than any ghost market I have encountered before. It's just the same as the New Year in the yang world, people come and go, there are people who buy and sell food, some buy and sell clothes, and there are people who buy and sell cattle and sheep, which is almost the same as the business in the yang world.

But I can't understand what the ghosts are talking about, and it's hard for me to understand unless they want me to understand. If a ghost communicates with a person, unless he wants people to understand what he says, he can either possess the body of the person in order to speak the human language, or communicate in other ways, in addition to these, the ghost speech is an alternative pronunciation, speaking very quickly, and he can't understand what he is saying at all.

For example, the ghost old man walking in front of me, he wants me to understand, so I can understand, and if he deliberately speaks ghost language, I can't understand it. However, since my cultivation has improved, my hearing has also undergone earth-shaking changes, no matter how far away the sound is, as long as I want to hear it, there is nothing I can't hear, and if I listen carefully to these ghosts, if I listen carefully to a few words, in my mind, there will be a human voice naturally, it seems that I can understand!

I remember that in my cultivation, I will encounter a kind of supernatural power, called Tian'er Tong, which refers to the ears, which are as omnipotent as the Heavenly Eye, and can hear sounds that ordinary people can't understand, no matter how far away, as long as you want to hear them, you can hear them. I don't know if I've turned on the Heavenly Ear Pass now, but I think that if I listen carefully, I can understand the ghost words spoken by these ghosts, and whatever I want to hear, my ears will deliberately collect what sounds come in.

"The rice cake shop in front is opened by my son, look at how good the business is, hehe!"

The old ghost man suddenly pointed to a small shop at the corner of the street and said with a smile to me. I took a look and saw that there were a few small cypress trees growing in front of the shop, surrounding both sides of the street, because cypress trees are evergreens in all seasons, and many cemeteries often plant these trees to green the cemetery. But despite this, the business of this rice cake shop is indeed very good, and there is a large group of ghosts gathered at the door, all queuing up to buy rice cakes.

When the ghost old man walked to him with a pick, the ghosts seemed to be very polite, and they each stepped aside and divided an aisle for the ghost old man, and the ghost old man was not polite, and immediately walked in with the pick. I was hesitating whether to go in, when suddenly, I saw a ghost with the appearance of a middle-aged man walking out of the store, and it looked a little similar to the ghost old man, probably the son of the ghost old man. He immediately did something strange to me, and he actually held a bamboo pole and took off the front door.

What does it mean to pick up a disguise? Naturally, the business is not done, and if there is no pretense, it means that there is no business, and only under the guise does it mean that it is opened. This is the rule of doing business, seeing that the disguise was taken off, the ghosts who surrounded the front of him scattered, and in the blink of an eye, the door was empty, and there was not a single ghost. I opened my mouth, this, what does this mean? Why don't you do a good business?

Just then, the old man came out of the shop and beckoned to me, "Come in and talk, young man!" Hearing this, I hesitated for a moment, but walked in anyway. The interior of this shop is quite spacious, there is a small hall, the decoration is simple, giving people a sense of elegance, sit down, the ghost old man motioned to the middle-aged couple on the side to pour tea for me, and took out a plate of rice cakes and put it on the table, signaling me to eat.

Of course, I wouldn't eat these ghost food, so I smiled and declined, and then asked, "Uncle, why did you suddenly stop doing good business?" There are so many ...... out there Customers wait, how good this business is! Haha......"

Hearing my words, the ghost old man waved his hand and motioned for the middle-aged woman to go down, leaving only his son, the middle-aged man present, and said to me casually: "This is my son, he lives here, but life is not very easy, just took off the disguise, it is also a last resort, recently this half step has often appeared missing cases, no, just now there are a few families, inexplicably gone!" Several shops in the neighborhood have closed their doors, and my son is also waiting for me to come, and now that I am here, he doesn't dare to do it anymore, so let's wait for the turmoil to pass and then open another one! ”

I heard that the clouds and mountains were covered by fog, and this ghost world was even more troublesome than the yang world, and it was so well-behaved. If it weren't for the yin qi around me that was alerting me, this was the world of ghosts, and my subconscious would have mistaken this for the world of people. They are also human beings, but they are yin people, and the yang people are yang people, and the difference between yin and yang people is probably that one is born and the other is dead!

I immediately asked, "Uncle, I don't know what happened in this ghost city?" In fact, in the final analysis, this ghost market also exists in order, and there are ghost soldiers and ghosts who will guard and watch over it, and once something happens, it won't care! ”

"Young man, you really don't know! The generals here are not the generals of the underworld, so there is no fairness at all, the generals here are some evil ghosts specially gathered by the bullies here, they can settle it as long as they spend money, just imagine such a general, what fairness is there?! ”

The ghost old man said with a bitter face.
