Chapter 103: Ghost City
Zhang Yuancai walked into the bridge, and at a slight glance, he found that the bridge shape was simple and vigorous, with a faint fragrance entering his nose, he was shocked when he looked at the bridge carefully, and blurted out: "Agarwood." ”
Long Xuan on the side suddenly showed a surprised voice, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Zhang has good eyesight, he can recognize it at a glance, it's good that the entire bridge is made of agarwood." ”
Zhang Yuan stood on the bridge, touched the bridge pillar and sighed: "It's still a big hand." ”
Long Xuan explained on the side: "This bridge and the bridge on the east side were built by the Peony Pavilion, this means tsk, who can do it in other states, Brother Zhang, if you go further, you will be able to see the whole picture of the Peony Pavilion." ”
Zhang Yuan walked up along the bridge, and after a while, a building appeared in the white mist, although he couldn't see it completely, but the faintly exposed eaves and arches and white cranes still showed a fairyland, seeing this, he couldn't help but walk quickly towards the bridge, and just stood in a position, Long Xuan's voice also came: "Brother Zhang's position..."
Zhang Yuan looked north and south, and then looked down at the Luo River flowing under his feet, and then looked at the Peony Pavilion across the Luo River in front of him, and couldn't help but admire the founding patriarch of the Peony Pavilion.
Long Xuan didn't notice that Zhang Yuan was absent-minded, and was still pointing to the introduction of various buildings in the Peony Pavilion on the side, Zhang Yuan came back to his senses, and didn't interrupt his words, just listened quietly, feeling the water vitality rising below, he suddenly interrupted Long Xuan's words and said: "Are there many people passing by on the bridge on both sides every day!"
Long Xuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "There must be a lot, this is the only bridge across Luoshui." ”
Zhang Yuan nodded secretly, it seems that the Peony Pavilion built a bridge to attract and lock this vitality by the flow of people, and there are definitely formation masters in the Peony Pavilion.
Coming down from the bridge, Zhang Yuan was still thinking about how to build it if he came to build it, and after thinking for a long time, he found that he didn't seem to have a better way.
After dark, Zhang Yuan rejected Long Xuan's suggestion to go to the casino to relax, and rested in the restaurant early.
Long Xuan, who had settled down, was not idle, he was a little dissatisfied today, but he also figured out Zhang Yuan's character and knew his preferences, so while he was resting, he came out overnight to ask some people and prepared to take him to the ghost market tomorrow.
Early in the morning, as soon as Zhang Yuan went out, he saw Long Xuan waiting next to him, he smiled slightly, although this kid looked down on outsiders, he was still very diligent in his work, and beckoned him to go outside.
"Brother Zhang, today you see if you should go to see the mountain gate of the Nangong family first. ”
Zhang Yuan thought about it, he and the Nangong family were both benevolent and enmity, so he still didn't get close to them for the time being, and immediately said: "The Nangong family won't go, is there any other place?"
Long Xuan became a little nervous for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Yes, we can go to the ghost market today." ”
Zhang Yuan couldn't help but look at him and said, "Didn't you suggest that I not go?"
Long Xuan said a little embarrassed: "Generally, it is not recommended to go, this is not to see Brother Zhang's eye!" He was also embarrassed to say that he was not familiar with it.
Zhang Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Then let's go together." ”
Long Xuan agreed with some excitement, and then led Zhang Yuan to the east city gate, out of the city gate, left circle and circle for a long time, Long Xuan found the wellhead that others said, he couldn't help but secretly glanced at Zhang Yuan who was following behind, and saw that he had no expression, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took two sets of clothes and came out and said: "Brother Zhang, the ghost market is all covered in black clothes and black scarves." ”
Zhang Yuan smiled slightly, put on the clothes, and found that after putting on the clothes, he wrapped his whole body tightly, only showing his two eyes outside.
Long Xuan saw that Zhang Yuan was dressed, and said a little nervously: "Brother Zhang, you are well followed." After saying that, he turned over and jumped into the well.
Long Xuan was a little nervous, and when he landed on the ground, he was slightly relieved when he saw a big hole on the side, and hurriedly beckoned Zhang Yuan to come down.
The two of them walked along the path in the dark for a long time before they saw a little light, and when they walked in, they found that it was a night pearl, and then there was a dark river, and there was a small boat tied to the side, and one person was sleeping on the boat, Long Xuan stepped forward and said, "My lord, please." The man stretched out a hand and came over, Long Xuan put a few silver coins in his hand with some pain, the man shook hands and stood up at the same time, Long Xuan hurriedly beckoned Zhang Yuan to get on the boat, and he didn't see any movement from that person, and the boat immediately sped forward.
Long Xuan was a little nervous to hold the string of the boat, he was a little seasick, although he repeatedly promised that it was okay, but he was still nervous, but fortunately, the boat stopped after a short time. Zhang Yuan also saw that this Long Xuan should rarely come here, so he immediately took the lead on the shore and walked up the stone steps, Long Xuan couldn't help but feel top-heavy, and saw that Zhang Yuan had already walked up, and hurriedly chased after him.
Zhang Yuan stepped on the platform and couldn't help but be stunned, this is a huge space, there are many passages around the faint sight, and there are many night pearls hanging on the surrounding rock walls, take a closer look, every night pearl is a stall person, these people are shrunk in the middle of the rock wall, there are many black-clothed people walking around on the platform, but there are so many people, but no one makes a sound, they are quietly looking at their own things.
Long Xuan came to Zhang Yuan's side, and was about to speak, when he saw this situation, his neck shrunk, and he swallowed what he was going to say, Zhang Yuan glanced at him, and suddenly felt that someone was watching him, and immediately turned his head to look, and found that there were two people not far away, and one person standing behind looked at him with some surprise, these two people were relatively thin, and when they saw themselves, the person immediately looked away.
Zhang Yuan was a little surprised in his heart, so he walked towards the two people, who knew that he only walked a few steps behind the two, the two suddenly turned around, looked at him quietly, and there was a faint hostility in his eyes, even the stall owner behind him also stood up slowly, and his eyes flashed with fierce light.
"Brother Zhang, there are rules in the ghost market, and you only talk about one person at a time. Long Xuan touched the sweat and whispered, although his voice was small, but in this quiet and empty space, everyone could still hear it clearly, the three people who were nervous in front of Zhang Yuan just now suddenly relaxed, the two looked at each other and turned around, and the stall owner sat down directly, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
Zhang Yuan glanced at Long Xuan, turned around and walked into the distance, Long Xuan also knew that he had done something wrong, so he hurriedly lowered his head and followed, and secretly said in his heart: Where is his usual cleverness, he actually made such a low-level mistake today.
Zhang Yuan walked to a remote cave and entered not far away, no one was setting up a stall here, and he could faintly hear the sound of running water in the distance, he asked in a low voice: "Long Xuan, is there anything else you haven't said?"
Long Xuan was a little sweaty nervously, thought about it carefully, lowered his head and said, "There is another point, that is, it is best to stay in this space only, and don't walk around at will." ”
"Don't walk around in this space?" Zhang Yuan grasped the point at once, and then looked at Long Xuan, who was fiddling with the corners of his clothes with his head down.
Long Xuan seemed to feel Zhang Yuan's gaze, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Brother Zhang, this is the first time I have come to the ghost market, and I only found out about it when I asked others yesterday. ”
Zhang Yuan glanced at him, snorted and turned around and walked back, he couldn't help it, he suddenly stopped and whispered to warn Long Xuan: "Calm down later, if you are so nervous, I won't care about you, you go back alone." ”
Long Xuan was stunned, and hurriedly followed, looking at Zhang Yuan's back, he seemed to have settled down all of a sudden, and his movements were much more natural.
Zhang Yuan entered this space again, no one knew that they were new, Zhang Yuan looked along the stalls one by one, only to see two seats, and was attracted by an item in front of him, this bell, or a broken bell, what interested him was the two characters on the bell, there was a hole in the middle of the word and the word faction, he had seen the introduction of this bell in the classics of the Falling Star Sect, which was used by the Falling Star Sect to greet disciples. He glanced at the stall owner, and saw where the stall owner was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if he didn't see him, so he took the clock in his hand, turned it over and looked, it was indeed Zhou Tianxingchen Diagram inside, he thought about it, he was now half a member of the Falling Star Sect, and the things that the Falling Star Sect had left out should still be bought.
He looked at the stall owner with his eyes closed again, and stretched out his hand in his sleeve as he had seen before, and the stall owner also stretched out his hand as if he had a sense, and the two tugged at the wide sleeves, and the stall owner looked at Zhang Yuan with some surprise, and finally nodded in agreement. Both of them were quite satisfied with this transaction, Zhang Yuan used a gold bead to exchange for the clock, and the stall owner got a gold bead.
Next, Zhang Yuan slowly walked around the cave, and the gold beads in the ring were spent one by one, buying things such as Dan furnaces, classics, etc., and he didn't care about weapons, flying swords, and defensive armor.
When he returned to the platform again, Long Xuan looked at Zhang Yuan with some expectation, he followed Zhang Yuan the whole time, naturally knew how many things he bought, although he couldn't know the full value with his eyes, but he also knew that there was definitely a lot, it was best to leave at this time, although it was still very safe so far.
Zhang Yuan naturally understood what he meant, but he was not in a hurry to leave, this gave him a great gain, he glanced at the many passages, and walked towards the nearest passage.
Long Xuan secretly complained: He was really afraid of something, but he was reluctant to leave now, gritted his teeth, and hurriedly followed.
The passage is very long, and a night pearl is placed after a long distance, and occasionally I meet a person, who is cautiously looking at each other face-to-face and turning around, and it takes a long time to come to the same huge space, the same layout, but it gives the two different feelings.
Zhang Yuan had just walked out of the cave not far away, and a fight suddenly broke out in a stall just passing by, and the man in black who was shopping suddenly moved towards a person passing by on the side, and the person was defenseless, and his body was instantly torn apart.
Just as he jumped into the passage, the stall owner who seemed to have just reacted did not chase after him, but just stretched out his hands in front of him, grabbed with one hand, and struck out with one palm, and with his movements, the person who had jumped into the passage exploded instantly, and the cylinder also flew into his hand.
