Chapter 22: Staying in the Strange City

Because I had to get up early tomorrow to go to the ghost market, and my body had not fully recovered, I simply checked the "Eighteen Methods of Refining Corpses" and "Hundred Solutions of Medicinal Materials", and after preparing the medicinal bath to help Xiao Lu recover, I fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, I hid Xiao Lu and placed a ban around Xiao Lu, according to the agreement, I came to Hu Ye's hot pot restaurant and waited for him to drive the big G to send me to the ghost market in the mountain city.

But unlike before, the person who drove me this time was Hu Ye himself, not Lao Gu. Master Tiger motioned for me to get into the car, and then the car set off.

On the way, I chatted with Hu Ye with a match, and when I talked about Lao Gu, I asked Hu Ye, why did he drive by himself this time, instead of Lao Gu?

Hu Ye smiled and said to me, although Lao Gu is with him, but Lao Gu is not on this road like him, not a person on the road, he can't get lucky, he can't enter the ghost market, it's better to let him stay and help me watch Jiang You, Jiang You has not been peaceful recently, I heard that there is infighting among the four major families, if something really happens, Lao Gu can still help me deal with it.

I nodded, thinking that what the tiger master said was reasonable, so I diverted the topic. Then, seeing that there was really nothing to talk about between us, Master Hu simply introduced me to the surrounding landscapes, and by the way, he mentioned to me the historical origin of the ghost market in Jiangmen and some rules that must be followed.

First, bargaining is not allowed for the sale of items in the ghost market.

Second, bartering is allowed in ghost markets.

Third, no one is allowed to make trouble in the ghost market, violators, die!

Fourth, the ghost market lasts for three days, and after entering it, you cannot leave the ghost market until the ghost market is over.

Fifth, the ghost market does not allow the sale of fakes, violators, die!

Sixth, there shall be no homicide in the ghost city, violators, death!

......

Jiangmen is quite far away from the river, all the way at high speed, I and Hu Ye took turns to drive, and it took nearly ten hours to get to the place.

The Jiangmen ghost market is irregular and has no fixed opening hours, but every time the ghost market will carry out an auction, which is the highlight of the ghost market in the mountain city.

In order to ensure safety and privacy, the specific location of the ghost market will change every time, so the organizer will send some invitations to inform the specific location every time it is carried out. Only those who have received an invitation letter are eligible to participate in the ghost market.

Generally speaking, this kind of thing will be sent to businessmen or magicians like Tiger Master who have been mixing on the road all the year round and have some connections, unless the organizer thinks that this ghost market will be a little more lively, so they will print more invitations and send them to those retail magicians.

This year's ghost market was opened in a hot spring villa deep in the mountains, and Tiger Master told me that although the location of the ghost market changes every year, all of them are carried out in the organizer's own industry, the purpose is to make more money.

After all, every time there is a ghost market, there will be a lot of magicians from all over the country to participate, as long as the room fee is raised a little, it will inevitably be able to make a lot of money, you say this kind of good thing, the organizer can let it go?

And the tiger master also told me that the organizer is a big guy named "Rao San" in Shancheng. People who know how to do it all respectfully call him the third master.

These three masters have great abilities. Not only single-handedly created the country's famous "Miao Wu Chamber of Commerce", but also his own strength is extraordinary, I heard that his witchcraft has reached the point of being supernatural, the fate of heaven and earth, and the ancient and modern.

Entering the Gu Refining Corpse is even more of a must, I heard that the most powerful zombie he has refined has reached the level of Semi-Stepping Lu.

It is precisely because of the third master's appearance and appeal that those magicians can rest assured that they put those treasures on the ghost market for auction. However, under normal circumstances, the third master will not personally sit in the ghost market, unless there is really something terrible at the auction of this ghost market.

After entering the villa, under the leadership of the tiger master, I soon came to the housing area of the ghost market, because the ghost market only enters and does not leave the rule for three days, plus the auction is divided into three times, each time it is still held at night, so the housing area is basically full, and the room fee is also ridiculously expensive, and a standard single room actually costs 20,000 a night.

Seeing such an outrageous housing price, I instantly felt that the 600,000 yuan in my hand was not much at all, and I even began to wonder if the money in my hand could buy two grams of Tianshan Snow Lotus.

After checking in, Master Hu was ready to take me shopping, and by the way, he introduced some stall owners who he thought had a good character to me to get to know him, which could be regarded as expanding his contacts.

Originally, I wanted to directly find the woman who contacted me in the middle of the night in the ghost market, and then talk about it after getting the Tianshan Snow Lotus first, but after thinking about it, I didn't seem to know anything about everything except the woman's voice, and the scale of this ghost market was quite large, there were thousands of acres, and there were hundreds or thousands of vendors, so looking for them one by one was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

It's better to get to know the stall owner more with the tiger master, maybe that woman is the one the tiger master knows.

Thinking of this, I quickly nodded in agreement. But before he could get out of the hotel door, a man with a full beard and a sloppy look called out to Master Hu.

When the tiger master saw it, he hurriedly went over and waved enthusiastically: "Lao Li, are you here too?" What are you going to sell this year? Bring it to me for inspection first, and I'll help you palm your eyes. ”

"Okay, come to my room, which one do you like, take it directly, and with the friendship between the two of us, I will give you a ninety-fifty discount."

Then Master Hu said to me: "This guy Li is very good at refining weapons, and he is also very well-informed. I just went over to help you inquire about the snow lotus in the mountain that day, and by the way, I went to see if there were any good utensils, and I pit him fiercely. In this case, you can take a look for yourself first, and we will see you in the evening at the door of the auction house. ”

I nodded and said, "Okay, Master Tiger, you're busy." ”

Seeing me nodding, Master Hu hurriedly followed Lian Li to the room, while I was wandering around the ghost market alone.
