Chapter Seventy-Seven: Coincidence
"It's different."
The old king's expression was much more serious, and he waved his hand to let the subordinates behind him leave.
"A ghost market is a ghost market, and a black market is a black market, and they are two completely different concepts."
The black market is some underground transactions done by many people in Bailu City, such as Jiang Xiao, the elder of the Penglai Xianmen Ceremony, who died with Wu Chong and a few of them before, after his death, the things on his body will be resold in the black market, and the things after the whitewashing will fall into their hands. All kinds of processes are basically participated by big people in White Deer City, such as Yue Gongzi.
The magic jade recipe that Wu Chong received was the reward after whitewashing.
But ghost markets are different.
To take the simplest example, the black market is taboo, and things that need to be laundered can be sold openly in the ghost market. In that place, it seemed that there was no need to taboo the power of the 'yang side' at all, even if it was a top-level immortal island like Penglai, they didn't care about it at all.
"Do you know the legend of White Deer City?"
After talking about the gap between the black market and the ghost market, the old king asked.
"I haven't heard of it."
As soon as he arrived near White Deer City, he became a bandit, what does the history of White Deer City have to do with him.
"In the eighth year of the human emperor, the immortal white deer came. For the trace of immortals, the emperor cast the city, and the white city was renamed 'White Deer', which is the origin of the White Deer City. ”
"Aren't you the Immortal Chief?"
Wu Chong listened in the clouds.
That's how ordinary people in this world call demon cultivators.
"Hey, the so-called immortal chief is just a title for gold."
The old king did not continue the topic, and then talked about White Deer City.
"Bailu City has existed since the time of the ancient emperors, don't look at it is now under the management of Lushan City, and outsiders also call it Bailu County. But everyone who lives here knows that White Deer City was once a top city in the era of the Human Emperor, and the 'Immortal' named Bailu once lived here. ”
Immortals?
Isn't it the same with the current 'Immortal Chief'!
Those 'immortal elders' who keep transferring pollution don't know how long they have lived.
"Immortals are different from us, we people are not so much immortals, but rather robbed the lives of those 'crops', and lived the lives of others."
"What does that have to do with the ghost market?"
Wu Chong was puzzled.
He came to ask about the ghost market, but none of the things that the old king said had anything to do with the ghost market.
"The ghost market has been passed down from the time of the immortal Bailu to the present."
After speaking, the old Wang Tou looked at Wu Chong and said eagerly.
"The sign I gave you can only enter the black market, as for the ghost market...... I want to get in too. ”
"But didn't you introduce me to the guide?"
Wu Chong took out the token that the old king gave him yesterday and found that the brand had not changed.
"That's the mystery of the ghost market."
Not only the old king, but all the upper echelons of White Deer City, who don't want to enter the ghost market. Even the most powerful top-level immortal island 'Penglai' on the bright side also wants to enter the ghost market. Otherwise, with their level of power, how could they set up a garrison in a small county like White Deer City.
"The ghost market is so big that it has it all. There are even rumors that there are immortal methods in the ghost market that are stronger than the demon skills we have learned! It is the true art of immortality. ”
Wu Chong understood it.
It turned out that this White Deer City was built by a group of people who waited for the opportunity to slowly gather and build.
The opportunity they wanted to wait for was the 'ghost market' he had entered yesterday.
I also understood what the old rowing man meant when he left in the morning, "goodbye by fate".
According to the mystery of this ghost market, he may not have a chance to enter it next time.
"Did you switch to the Immortal Technique last night?"
The old king asked eagerly.
Immortality, who wouldn't want to!
The path of the Immortal Chief seems to be high, but in fact, only cultivators know that this is a bottomless pit. The stronger the person, the stronger the pollution transferred from each cultivation, and the level of entering India is fine, it is enough to buy a dozen 'crops' a year, but after the Desireless Realm, the amount of this consumption will increase exponentially.
The higher the level, the more people will be killed.
This is a point of no return, because if you go all the way, there will be a time when you can't bear it.
Human life in the world is limited.
Even if this group of immortal elders has been distorted to plant 'crops' in order to prolong their lives, and no longer treat people as human beings, they still can't keep up with consumption. Almost every year, there are immortals who get out of control because they can't transfer the pollution, and that's how the night demons and powerful pollutants flowing outside come about.
It can be said that in this world, every living 'immortal elder' stands on a high platform made of white bones at their feet. This is also the reason why Xu Zhou, the cheap apprentice of the old king, is not used to it, not everyone is willing to be a man-eating demon.
"I didn't have enough money, so I bought this."
Wu Chong took out the Penglai Exercise that he bought yesterday and gave it to Lao Wangtou, which can be regarded as repaying him for taking care of himself during this time.
Moreover, this was originally an exercise, and the content had already been recorded in the game panel.
"Penglai exercises and secret arts? It's a ghost market, but it's a pity. Lao Wang Tou showed several regretful expressions in a row.
I asked Wu Chong several more questions about the ghost market.
Wu Chong picked out some things that could be said and told the old king, as for the rowing old man and the red spirit of Huangquanlou, he subconsciously skipped it.
Because he feels that these two may have some intersection with him later.
"We'll go to the well again in the evening, and this time I'll find someone to mix some more silver."
After knowing Wu Chong's experience, the old Wang Tou moved.
As a senior immortal elder, he has much more money in his hands than Wu Chong. Not to mention that this old man is still black, after so many years, I don't know how much black work he has done, and his family background is not ordinarily rich.
Out of the old king's dwelling.
Wu Chong returned to the small courtyard alone.
Regarding last night's ghost market experience, he actually had a rough guess in his heart.
He didn't tell the old man about this guess.
"Behind the ghost market, there must be a master, and the ticket to enter the ghost market should be a spiritual object."
Since the last time he opened the box, Wu Chong has had a sense of crisis.
And at this juncture, the ghost market happened to find him.
In this world, there are so many coincidences.
When you look at it from a different angle, you will find that all the coincidences are strung together by a thread.
He just happened to pick up the spirit object and was involved in it without knowing it. Without that spiritual object, he would still live in the sun like the vast majority of people in this world, never knowing that there was a force like the Ghost City lurking in the shadows of this world.
"Maybe there is a new breakthrough."
Wu Chong remembered the 'Skin Painting Technique' obtained from the spiritual objects and the 'Wood Man Technique' obtained in the ghost market last night.
Both of these things, his game panel, can be cultivated!
It was also judged to be a life skill.
