Jindan roll ghost market
The sun was high outside the house, Jiang Liu was already so tired that he was about to faint, his arm trembling and holding the sword, but he really didn't dare to put it down without Li Yu's approval.
There was no way, he had to stiffen and stab sword after sword.
"Don't be lazy, there are still fifty swords, and after stabbing this son, I will take you out for a walk." Li Yu crossed his arms and said in a low voice.
"Well, I see." After speaking, Jiang Liu took a breath and stabbed at the air in front of him.
Two thousand nine hundred and eighty-one, two thousand nine hundred and ninety-two, two thousand nine hundred and ninety-six, two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.
Three thousand! Call!!!
"Dangchang."
The sword fell directly to the ground.
Jiang Liu also sat down.
After the last fifty swords were stabbed, Jiang Liu's right arm was almost no longer felt, and his whole body was trembling.
At this moment, Jiang Liu only felt that his right arm did not belong to him.
It's finally done! It's so easy, so happy!
"Swallow one of the silt pills my father gave you, or your hooves will be ruined." Li Yu glanced at Jiang Liu and said with an indifferent expression.
Sure enough, Jiang Liu rolled up his sleeves.
He noticed that the wrist of his right arm was red and purple, and the whole thing was swollen.
Before he had time to think about it, Jiang Liu took out the jade bottle from his arms, poured out a round black pill, and swallowed it in one gulp.
As the stasis pill entered the abdomen along the esophagus, Jiang Liu instantly felt a warm stream of heat flowing from the abdomen to the wrist, and in a moment, the redness and swelling on the wrist had already receded a lot.
It's a magic pill!
Feeling the air flow from his hand, Jiang Liu's eyes smashed his mouth, although it was not the first time he had taken it, but he still felt magical.
Now except for some weakness in the right arm, there is basically no major problem.
Li Yu looked at Jiang Liu, as if he had thought of something very interesting, and there was a playful look in his eyes: "Let's go, this son will take you to an interesting place." β
Jiang Liu put down his sleeves, looked at Li Yu suspiciously, and said, "What's the fun place?" β
"Don't talk nonsense, come with this son." Li Yu smiled.
Seeing that the river was still grinding, Li Yu didn't forget to urge: "Don't mother-in-law, go quickly." β
"Got it, got it." Jiang Liu stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks, hung the Flying Star Sword on his waist haphazardly, and chased after him quickly.
-----------------
The cold wind is bleak, and the moon and stars are scarce.
Chang'an City at night is different from daytime, compared to the scorching sun during the day, it is suffocating, but Chang'an at night is cold.
Since Chang'an has a curfew system, the lively streets during the day are particularly quiet and deserted at the moment.
In the white moonlight, two figures were sticking to the wall of the market, sneakily moving forward.
"Hey, Brother Yu, where are you taking me?" Jiang Liu suppressed his voice and asked Li Yu in front of him.
"Shh Li Yu turned his head suddenly, put his right index finger to his lips, signaled him to silence, and then whispered, "Do you want to die?" Attracted the Imperial City Siben Gongzi doesn't care about you! β
The Imperial City Division is an armed force guarding Chang'an City, and in addition to ordinary mortal soldiers and horses, it is said that there is also a special force composed of monks, all of whom are extremely powerful and cruel.
"Tang Law Shu Yi" clearly wrote: "Those who commit night offenders will be punished with twenty lashes." "Anyone who violates the curfew will be given 20 lashes.
For the sake of his ass, Jiang Liu could only sigh helplessly, keep silent, and silently follow behind Li Yu.
The two of them walked down the street one after the other, and the dark clouds in the sky accumulated more and more, and even the moonlight was hidden, and the street began to be foggy at some point.
"The hour is coming!" Li Yu's face was filled with excitement, and he suddenly quickened his pace.
"What's coming?" As soon as Jiang Liu's words came out, the scene was silent again.
What the hell is she doing?
A cold wind blew, and it hurt like a knife on my face.
Hissβββ
It's cold.
Jiang Liu wrapped the clothes on his body and quickened his pace to catch up.
As the fog grew thicker and thicker, so that the surrounding houses were obscured, the river couldn't help but feel a little fear from the bottom of his heart.
What is going on, it seems that something is wrong.
"Hey! Li Yu, you wait for me! Jiang Liu didn't care about anything else, and shouted at Li Yu's back.
Hearing Jiang Liu's shout, she slowed down, turned her head and beckoned to Jiang Liu, urging, "Can you go faster?" β
Jiang Liu gasped, trotted over, looked around suspiciously, and whispered, "Brother Yu, where are you taking me?" β
Li Yu squinted, looked at him with a mysterious expression, and said in a low voice: "Jiang Liu, have you heard of the ghost market?" β
Jiang Liu shook his head and asked, "Ghost market? I haven't heard of it, what is it for? β
If the east and west markets of Chang'an City serve mortals, then the ghost market is a special market set up for all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes, gods, immortals, Buddhas, and Confucians.
"In the middle of the night, the rooster crows and disperses", the ghost market is only open at night, because these buyers and sellers are all acting under the moonlight and stars, and they are full of shadows and shadows, talking in a low voice, just like "a hundred ghosts walking at night", so it is also called a ghost market.
Some people who are inconvenient to reveal their identities, and some goods from unknown sources, will choose to trade in the ghost market.
The fog was getting thicker and thicker, and although it was not enough to reach out and not see five fingers, it had already affected the sight of the two.
"Keep up, it's coming soon." Li Yu said lightly behind him.
"Hmm!"
Jiang Liu nodded, and followed step by step.
The two of them walked for about a quarter of an hour, and then they saw a hazy Taoist temple revealing in the mist.
When the two of them walked to the door of the Taoist temple, Jiang Liu looked up and saw that the words "Xuandu Temple" were written on it with vermilion lacquer.
"Why are you stunned, come here!" Li Yu pulled Jiang Liu's sleeve robe and whispered.
Jiang Liu retracted his gaze at this time, turned around and continued to walk along the path in front of the Taoist temple.
As he walked, Jiang Liu felt that the road under his feet seemed to be extending downward at an angle, and after looking around, he found that it was still wrapped in thick fog, and he continued to walk forward with the doubts in his heart.
After walking for a long time of incense, the fog began to thin out.
Jiang Liu realized that the two of them had come to a depression, no wonder the road sloped downward.
After a few more walks, a huge cavern appeared in front of him.
Li Yu crossed his waist with one hand, pointed to the dark hole in front of him and said, "Here, this is the ghost market." β
Jiang Liu squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of Li Yu's finger, the cave was pitch black, without a trace of light, and under the mist, it was like a giant mouth of some creature, waiting for the prey to throw itself into the net.
"Uh, Brother Yu, are we going in?" Jiang Liu looked at Li Yu and asked cautiously.
Glancing at him, Li Yu said angrily: "Nonsense, why did I bring you here if you don't go in?" β
Scratching the back of his head, Jiang Liu's face was slightly embarrassed, and he asked tentatively: "Either Brother Yu, you go in first, I'll wait for you here, what do you think?" β
Sweeping his gaze over Jiang Liu's face, Li Yu said in a mocking tone: "I said Jiang Liu, you won't be scared, right?" β
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Liu's face turned even redder, but fortunately, the moonlight was covered by the fog, and he was not seen by Li Yu, so he smiled awkwardly, and Jiang Liu said: "How can it be, what do I have to be afraid of!" β
"Then don't talk nonsense!"
Li Yu glanced at him, and walked towards the cave without looking back.
