Chapter 54: The Encounter of Entering the Market
And as the door opened, a cold wind slowly blew out from behind the gate.
This wind is not the kind of cold in winter, but the real cold, blowing into people's souls and chilling from the bottom of their hearts.
I stood at the door, and I couldn't help but wrap the cloak on my body, as long as I was a cultivator, no matter how stupid I was, I would know what was going on with this wind?
Yin wind often appears in the place of extreme yin (not counting on pure yin qi, if it is pure yin qi, it should be called spiritual vein), and under normal circumstances, it is also a place where ghosts and things are easy to gather.
I already know in my heart that this ghost market, I'm afraid it's just like Brother Zhengchuan said, there are ghosts to become a city.
But why?
My heart was full of doubts, but at this time, a person in a white robe slowly walked out from behind the door, and behind the door was not as ghostly as I imagined, but a clear yellow and bright piece, but because it was a candle flame, it seemed so wobbly.
"Someone came so early?" The white-robed man saw me and Brother Zhengchuan standing at the door, and whispered.
Nonsense, it's time to open the market, shouldn't it come?
I thought so in my heart, but my mouth was silent, and the white-robed man seemed to be very fond of talking to himself, and whispered: "Yes, it's time for the market to open." ”
As he spoke, he gave up a position slightly, and let me and Brother Masakawa enter the gate.
As soon as he entered the gate, he felt that the temperature seemed to be lower than outside, and Brother Zhengchuan was weak, so he couldn't help but tremble slightly at this time.
Who would have thought that the cold in this place has become like this, just like the cold winter wax moon, and this kind of cold is useless to wear two more clothes, and it must be resisted by people's own yang fire.
Brother Zhengchuan is so weak, I am very worried about him, but I don't want the white-robed man to seem to be very idle, so he said coldly: "This is a little cold, for cultivators, I'm afraid it's nothing, right?" This little brother doesn't even look as good as an ordinary person. ”
After saying this, the corners of his mouth hooked, and his two eyes narrowed into a slit, not only did it not look like sympathy, but it was a bit like looking at Brother Zhengchuan narrowly.
We don't need sympathy, of course, but what's the deal with this demeanor? Full of malice, the anger in my heart surged up again, and I pulled Brother Zhengchuan forward and just wanted to speak, but I was pulled by Brother Zhengchuan, and then said to the white-robed man in a calm tone: "I'm sorry, I have an old illness in my body, so my body and bones seem weaker." ”
"Oh?" The white-robed man's squinting eyes suddenly opened, looked at Brother Zhengchuan and said, "This is still the hall, I'm afraid it's even colder in the ghost market, this little brother, do you want to have a picture of this?" ”
As he spoke, the white-robed man took out a folded piece of yellow rune paper from his robe and handed it to me and Brother Zhengchuan.
I took this rune paper suspiciously, as long as I sensed it with a little soul power, I could feel the warm fluctuations coming from above, obviously this is a positive yang talisman.
Fu is naturally real, not the kind of charlatan in the world, casually according to a few so-called books on drawing the 'ghost drawing talisman' (the meaning of the fake talisman), but in the circle of cultivators, it is only the lowest level of talismans, the role is nothing more than to strengthen a little bit of people's yang energy, in a sense, the yang energy is enough, naturally able to ward off evil.
Outside, this kind of thing is useless to me and Brother Zhengchuan.
But at this time, Brother Zhengchuan naturally needs this thing, I just didn't expect that people from the Snow Mountain line are also doing business in this ghost market, does Aunt Chengzhen know about this?
Thinking like this in my heart, I still don't understand the sound on the surface, I almost got angry just now, but Brother Zhengchuan pulled me, which was a reminder to me, I know that I have to be low-key and forbearant here, so I asked: "So what price is this talisman, what do we want?" ”
The white-robed man had already introduced us to the rules of the ghost market.
Here, worldly money is naturally hard currency, and if you can't bring that much money, gold can also be traded.
However, when it comes to the better things, it's usually bartering.
This talisman is the most ordinary, but I don't think it's too expensive The cultivator smiled hehe, held the talisman in his hand, and said: "Although this Zhengyang talisman is ordinary, it was drawn by the master of the most powerful talisman array in my Snow Mountain. The effect and duration are much stronger. If it is traded with secular coins, 10,000 yuan. It's up to you to be eligible to enter the ghost market. ”
I suddenly held my breath in my chest, this broken talisman costs 10,000? People in the snowy mountains are so 'greedy'?
But Brother Zhengchuan's hand was tightly held on my shoulder, I couldn't have a seizure, I took a few deep breaths, I was going to take out 10,000 from the small bag I was carrying, because Brother Zhengchuan needed, don't say 10,000, even if I pay all the money on my body, I am willing.
As for whether I was blackmailed, I was too lazy to think about this ghost market, and I suddenly had a feeling of 'people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads'.
But I didn't want to be at this time, Brother Zhengchuan grabbed me and said to the white-robed man: "We won't stay in the ghost market for long, we don't need to." Thank you. ”
"Brother Zhengchuan" I snorted lightly, Brother Zhengchuan, how could it not be needed? With a physical condition like Brother Zhengchuan, how long can he resist in the ghost market?
But Brother Zhengchuan insisted on pulling me to leave.
I don't understand what Brother Zhengchuan means, so I can only follow Brother Zhengchuan silently, but I don't want the white-robed man who opened the door at this time, but his expression became a little more fierce, and said: "I kindly sell a collection of Zhengyang talismans to you, what kind of attitude do you have, don't you want to say no?" ”
I had already gathered a lot of anger in my heart, and in the face of such words, I finally couldn't help it, turned around, turned around and sneered and said: "You have a big shelf in the snow mountain, can you still buy and sell?" ”
"You are a mere boy, dare to be disrespectful to my Snow Mountain?" The white-robed man's eyes flashed with excitement, as if he had finally grasped our handle, and then paused, and said with an obvious threat: "Now this talisman has been restored to its original price, 20,000 yuan." If you buy it in a proper manner, I shouldn't have heard this sentence today, otherwise, I will use my snow mountain to protect the common people in the world, and your disrespect will provoke the world's cultivators to chase and kill. ”
While talking, he looked at me and Brother Zhengchuan deadly, and whispered: "I don't mind, a little punishment for you kid who doesn't know the height of the sky." ”
What kind of face is this? Don't say that the head of the Snow Mountain is dignified and upright, even if the person who holds the bull's ear of the cultivator sect in the world is an ordinary small mountain sect, he can't be shameless to this point if he doesn't call himself a decent cultivator, right?
But I'm not stupid, and I won't let him hold the handle at this time, but instead of being so angry, I looked at the white-robed man and said, "Our Inner City Token, but you Snow Mountain First Vein Elder Ji and Elder Xiao who just left gave it personally. But you say that we are disrespectful to the snowy mountains, does that mean that they have lost their eyes? ”
As I spoke, I glanced outside the door, and at this time, more and more cultivators had already rushed here, and the nearest one was less than fifty meters away from this door.
"It's okay, you said that the cultivators of the world have also arrived today, so there must be a lot of people who are willing to inform Elder Ji, and then why don't you gather the cultivators of the world and evaluate the reasoning?" I also stared at the white-robed man in front of me and whispered.
"You," he obviously didn't expect me to say that.
Even, he didn't know that Brother Zhengchuan and I had a token in the inner market, because who would take the token in the inner market and go to the outer market? I heard that Brother Zhengchuan said that when you go to the inner market, you will not only have to drink the medicine boiled by the old man, but also there will be a special person to lead you, and you must wait in one place first and make certain preparations.
But at this time, in the face of this kind of scoundrel, he thought it was easy to bully if he was low-key.
I had already figured out the token of the inner market, and shook it in front of his eyes a few times, intentionally or unintentionally.
Seeing the genuine value of the inner market token, the white-robed man's face did not listen to the change, and finally it was difficult for him to squeeze out a smile, and pretended to be okay and said: "In this case, after passing through this small hall, there are four downward doors in front of it, and any one you enter at will leads to the outer market." ”
I put away the token, and I didn't want to entangle with him too much, so I just pulled Brother Zhengchuan and walked inside.
In this hall, it is also brightly lit, hanging eight huge oil lamps, but the lights are a little shaky and it takes a little time to get used to it, and I only noticed at this time that there are some carvings on the four walls of this small hall.
These things are not carved with the various immortals common to Taoist cultivators, nor are they some totemic gods and ghosts.
On the contrary, it is some ordinary daily affairs, a bit like the feeling of the Qingming Riverside Map, as if recording the ordinary life of many ordinary people in a city from morning to dusk.
What does that mean?
But I didn't want to, behind us, there was a narrow voice from the white-robed man: "Since the two of you have an internal market token, and they are also noble, you have to remind you that this foreign market trading is not necessarily peaceful, you two should be careful." ”
