Chapter 45: The Scoundrel's Struggle
I've been a little confused.
Could it be that there is still some hidden chance in this ghost market? Why do they all say we're new to the ghost market? And is there any sin in the new arrivals?
As soon as I raised my eyebrows, I was about to speak, but the heroic woman's gaze fell on my face, motionless, and there was a strange look in her eyes.
provoked Xiao Chengqian beside her, and also felt strange, looking up and down at me and Brother Zhengchuan, but he couldn't see anything? I could only turn my head and ask the woman next to me: "Chengzhen, they?" ”
The woman shook her head and said, "Just looking at the face, and at night, it is inevitable that there will be omissions, and without the consent of the person, it is not in accordance with the rules to look at the person's face deeply." It's just that this little brother's facial features are too obvious and contradictory, so I can't help but look at it twice. ”
At this time, where was the man named Xiao Chengqian allowed to speak, but my heart moved, and I couldn't help but take a step forward and ask the woman called Chengzhen: "It's Aunt Chengzhen, right?" What's wrong with my face? ”
I don't know why the word Aunt Chengzhen came out of my mouth.
Thinking about her age, it is no longer suitable for me to call my sister, although she is well-maintained, but the women in the circle of cultivators have always been very successful in maintenance, and they can't judge people's age by their faces at all.
Calling Auntie, I really can't open my mouth, call a woman who looks like she is about thirty to be an aunt, maybe she is not as old as an aunt.
Come to think of it, the title of aunt is both cordial and appropriate, after all, I want to ask others what happened to my face?
The ghost market is a strange place for us.
The opportunity may be stored in some bizarre words and deeds, how can I let it go?
"Oh, auntie, you're funny? Who just said that I watched too many Hong Kong movies? Now, you're a Condor Hero, right? But alas, she is my wife. "Xiao Chengqian seems to be in Xuancheng all the time, and he has 'ownership' of Chengzhen.
His actions made Cheng Zhen a little embarrassed, so he had to glare at Xiao Chengqian reproachfully, and then said to me: "Since the encounter is fate, if the little brother really wants to know, then please forgive Cheng Zhen for speaking bluntly." ”
When I clenched my fists, it was also a recognition.
In fact, 'obeying orders' is not a very fun thing, your own fate is told by others, it is okay, if there is a disaster or difficulty, it is difficult for someone to remain calm, especially if you can be sure that the other party is accurate.
Therefore, cultivators do not take 'obeying orders' lightly, which is really a powerful test for the heart. If you don't do well, a heart on the path of cultivation in the future will also have a lack of mood.
Seeing that I had permission, Na Chengzhen nodded, and no longer delayed, looked directly at me and said, "Your face is a typical appearance of early death." Barely escaping this, I just wonder why you lived so long? The paradox is that the skin and the bone are incompatible, which means that although the spirit and the body are compatible, the life is "
Speaking of this, Chengzhen frowned, then shook his head apologetically at me, and said, "If you look deeper, I'm afraid I've already made a taboo." That's all I can say. ”
Her words made everyone 'amazed', not to mention the rest, isn't it a miracle that a person who died early can survive until now?
How could an ordinary physiognomist say such a thing to a person who was obviously a young man? Apparently a slap in the face.
This Aunt Chengzhen is cool, she just said it, and everyone was still convinced, but they just thought I was strange.
Others think I'm weird, but Cheng Zhen's ordinary words have caused turmoil in the hearts of me and Brother Zhengchuan, how did she see through my biggest secret at a glance? The people in this circle of cultivators really can't be underestimated, I have to admit, in a sense.
Demon hunters don't belong to cultivators.
After Aunt Chengzhen said this, she didn't ask me if I was right or wrong, she just smiled at me, even if this matter was revealed, whether what she said was right or not, she probably also knew that in this world, everyone has their own secrets, and she may have crossed the line by asking afterwards.
Compared with that Xiao Dashao, Aunt Chengzhen is still polite and courteous, and more considerate.
"Okay, I've seen the physiognomy too. Now that the matter is over, will you come with us? At this time, Xiao Chengqian was also a little lazy, and said a word to me and Brother Zhengchuan like this.
"A trip? Why? "I asked directly, didn't I offend him with those words just now, and he wanted to use this to 'communiqué personal vendetta'?
"You can't come to the ghost market without an invitation. Don't you know the rules? Xiao Chengqian glanced at me, although he looked lazy, but a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Who says we don't have an invitation? Doesn't having this tent qualify you to stay here for four days? Could it be that Xiao Chengqian said this, which made Brother Zhengchuan feel very strange, and finally couldn't help but speak.
Just talking and talking, our confidence is getting weaker and weaker, because thinking of the strangeness of Ren Xiaoji that we discussed before, now, if we believe Ren Xiaoji's nonsense, I'm afraid it will be untenable.
"Hehe" Seeing that Brother Zhengchuan was more and more unconfident the more he spoke, Xiao Chengqian suddenly opened his mouth and laughed.
This laughter was not directed at me and Brother Zhengchuan, but at Aunt Chengzhen.
What does this laughter mean? It doesn't seem to be laughing at us, but a little helpless, obviously there is something hidden behind this matter.
How could I be kicked out of the ghost market like this? hurriedly said: "The tent and firewood asked us for a total of 8ooo yuan." ”
When I said this, I deliberately amplified my voice, and I could see that both Xiao Chengqian and Aunt Chengzhen seemed to have some taboo things, and they didn't want to say something at this time? I'm afraid that they will use strong methods to get rid of me and Brother Zhengchuan, and I subconsciously want to make things bigger.
Sure enough, such a deliberately loud roar provoked people nearby who were originally curious about this side to look in our direction twice.
Even people from farther away quietly paced over, as if they wanted to take a look, what was the matter with these white-robed people in charge of the ghost market staying here for so long?
How can I hide these little tricks from Chengzhen, she didn't get angry, but looked at me inexplicably, and then looked at Xiao Chengqian beside her with gentle eyes, and said: "Who do you think this kid looks like a scoundrel?" ”
Xiao Chengqian touched the extremely beautiful beard on his lips, also smiled, and said, "I'm starting to be single, who do you say you look like?" ”
The two of them talk as if they are talking in code, and Brother Zhengchuan and I are confused? Behind them, another man in a white robe stood up and said to us with some sympathy: "The ghost city has not been built for a few years. Naturally, there were some 'cow ghosts, snake gods', and this tent and firewood were only provided by us to the cultivators who came to participate in the ghost market. It doesn't take any money to pay the important thing is to have an invitation, because "
Speaking of which, the white-robed man was silent, because what, I'm afraid it involves a little secret?
I speculated to myself, but it was impossible for me to be willing.
So, I simply stepped forward and said loudly: "Under this bright and clear world, since you dare to open the market, how can you not open the door to welcome customers?" What's the deal with needing an invitation? Is it to classify all the cultivators in the world into a level? Yes, even if you think so, I, a little rookie, can't object. ”
"However, under your jurisdiction, my senior brother and I have been deceived, what is this? Don't you give an explanation? ”
Actually, there are no rules, there is no circle, if it is a hard word, I definitely have nothing to say, but fortunately, I still have a little bit of the innocent who was deceived, although this kind of thing can't be completely blamed on the management of the ghost city. However, if you are unwilling, you can only talk nonsense and muddy the waters.
Therefore, my remarks have attracted more and more people's attention.
Xiao Chengqian seemed to be annoyed by me, sneered, and said to me: "Boy, the invitation letter is not to classify the cultivators in the world at a level, but to do something that is not qualified to do it now, and it is forcibly done, but it will kill Qingqing. Got it? If you want an invitation, I can give it to you, but don't say that the inner city, even this outer city, you may not be safe. We don't necessarily want to keep you safe by maintaining order here. ”
As he spoke, he looked at me and said, "Which cultivator doesn't have his own life?" If you can't protect yourself, don't blame others. ”
Xiao Chengqian's words are sharp enough and true... In fact, I am also ironic that Brother Zhengchuan and I were deceived, it is my own business, I am inexperienced, and I can't blame others.
I know that this is already telling us some secrets openly and secretly, this ghost market is not necessarily safe, and it is best for rookies not to participate, but where is my opportunity? How can I quit.
"I'm just waiting for an explanation. Anyway, the heroes of the world are watching, I'm sitting here, you're going to throw me out, it's not me who is humiliated, I'm just a nobody. "I simply 'shameless' and deliberately said it out loud.
"It seems that we haven't been here for a long time, and I don't understand when such a generation came out on the rivers and lakes." Xiao Chengqian narrowed his eyes and looked at me.
Aunt Chengzhen whispered to him: "What is there that I don't understand, in those years, when we were young... Isn't that the same for some people? ”
This point seemed to touch Xiao Chengqian, he looked at me and suddenly sighed, and said to Aunt Chengzhen: "Then I don't care about this matter, you can handle it?" ”
Aunt Chengzhen nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
After the two discussed, Aunt Chengzhen said to me: "You have to explain, right?" Well, follow us and explain that there will be a will. This is not the place to speak, and if you force yourself to say it here, we have no choice but to leave. ”
These words implied that it was obvious enough, if I continued to make trouble unreasonably, they would leave it alone, and Brother Zhengchuan and I might not be able to please him in the ghost market.
That was enough, I got up from the ground and suddenly said in a loud voice, "Heroes of the world, I will follow them." ”
The reason is very simple, it is better to go with great fanfare than for me to be quietly shaded.
Aunt Chengzhen's natural way of doing my tricks, just smiled indifferently, and then whispered: "This kid is interesting enough, I almost thought... However, the man came a little earlier. ”
