Ye Chao sat alone on the sofa in the hotel, and the little beast had almost never left since following Ye Chao, and he was jumping around on the big bed in Ye Chao's room. On the coffee table in front of him is the object in his hand. A small copper tripod, a wooden sword, a small black pot, a stone the size of a child's fist, a silver box with more than a dozen silver needles in it, and a jade plaque with the word "Wei". Unfortunately, the fragment was burned in Jia Long's cave.

Tomorrow according to Jia Long's words, you can enter the corner alley, and during this time, the two will travel together, and Ye Chao will pay for it all the way, and they will be entertained with good wine and meat. Jia Long's temper was also touched by Ye Chao.

Jia Long is not very old, only in his twenties, and he is not a master of Taoism. It's just that when he was a child, he was admitted to the cave by Huashan Zhenjun as an apprentice, and according to Jia Long, he should be an orphan who was inadvertently picked up by Huashan Zhenjun and brought into the cave. Although he is not deeply involved in the world, after all, he has a lineage inheritance, and he is still many times stronger than Ye Chao, a cultivator like Ye Chao. In Jia Long's tone, after all, he belongs to a famous and decent family, and his inheritance is orderly, although his master suddenly disappeared when he became an adult and has not returned until now, but the basic knowledge of cultivation that should be known is not lacking, and Ye Chao has become the "wild cultivation" in Jia Long's mouth.

Jia Xianshi is not completely bragging.

"This is a copper tripod that looks exquisitely carved, but in fact it is an ordinary beast tripod, put in the secret bait medicine can temporarily control the untamed beast, or capture or kill the materials on its body, all at will!" Once after the two of them drank, Jia Long began to comment on a few things on Ye Chao's body, of course, Ye Chao's foreshadowing in the early stage was also one ring after another.

"Do you have the recipe for the bait?" Jia Long squinted at Ye Chao with slightly drunken eyes.

"Yes! This is what I bought from an antique shop, and I just looked at the antique, beautifully carved, the knife workmanship, and the copper was very old, and I thought it was extraordinary! "Ye Chao naturally can't tell the truth about how Tong Ding got it, it's not that he doesn't believe that Jia Long will denounce him, but why bother?

"A beast artifact without bait is just an ornament, unless someone is in a hurry to find it, it generally can't be sold at a good price!"

"This little stone!" Jia Long threw up the round stone, caught it with his hand and continued: "It is a material, called the earth spirit, which I have in the cave, but it is not as big as yours, so it is worth a little money, and it belongs to circulation!" ”

"The little gourd is a magic vessel that holds liquid." Jia Long shook his hand casually and found that it contained liquid, but he didn't rush to open the gourd and drank it all. "When you get to the corner alley, there are special identification materials, you can spend money to help identify them, and see what liquid is inside, how much is the value?"

"This silver box and silver needle are ordinary tools, which are used for many purposes, such as probing, identifying drugs, and first aid......... Jia Long didn't even get started, and clicked a little in the air.

The little pot Jia Daochang looked at it upside down for a long time, and he pinched the trick and silently recited the content halfway, but in the end he didn't give an accurate answer.

In the end, it was the turn of the wooden sword, and Jia Long seemed to deliberately save the comments on this wooden sword to the end.

"This is a magic sword made of lightning strike wood, which has a certain suppressive effect on ghosts and demon beasts, of course, if you can find a good magic technique, it can also be called a magic weapon."

"Are there really ghosts in this world?" Although Ye Chao said that he had stepped into cultivation, he had never seen a ghost with his own eyes.

"Of course! It's just that you haven't practiced the pupil technique, so naturally you can't see it. There is a trick: "Take off your skin, and you can see your true self." The yang god is immortal, and the yin god travels far away", it can be seen that ghosts can also be cultivated. ”

Ye Chao just wanted to ask which Taoist book this was about, but Jia Long immediately shook his hand and said, "Don't interrupt, continue to talk about your magic sword." ”

"Even if the magic sword has a magic trick, it can only be used as an auxiliary tool." As he spoke, snapped his fingers. Suddenly, Ye Chao felt that the small room that was originally filled with the aroma of wine, meat, and vegetables was immediately filled with a calm atmosphere. I saw a dark green object floating in the air in front of Jia Long's chest.

"Flying swords?" Ye Chao exclaimed in surprise.

"Visionary!" Jia Long looked triumphant.

Ye Chao saw it at the beginning, and he glanced at it from a distance, but today he observed it up close. In Ye Chao's opinion, if you say it's a sword, but it doesn't have the appearance of a sword in our common sense, the size is the size of a dagger, and you can't see it, the hilt, the sword, and the body of the sword. It's just that a piece of green light, there is a shaking feeling after looking at it for a long time, it doesn't look good up close, but the feeling that makes the skin tremble can't be faked, so that Ye Chao's first feeling is that this little thing is very dangerous and deadly.

"The flying sword is the treasure of our cultivation realm, it can be big or small, it can be warmed in the body, it can be fired at will, it can be protected from close, it can be attacked from afar, and it can be hit wherever it goes! The so-called one sword to break ten thousand laws refers to monks with flying swords. ”

Another snap of the fingers sounded, and the green light disappeared in an instant. The fat man's slightly drunken face looked triumphant, "Not all monks can have flying swords, you must be born with a sword skill to make it possible." ”

Ye Chao recalled the basic knowledge that came out of Jia Long's mouth along the way, looked at the things in front of him, picked up the jade card with the word "Wei" in front of him, and threw it at the little beast that was playing on the bed.

I learned from Jia Long that this kind of jade card has a variety of functions, first of all, it is a sign of identity, and secondly, it has the function of some storage, Ye Chao was very happy at first, after all, this kind of thing has only been seen in novels in the past, but after listening to Jia Long's introduction, Ye Chao was undoubtedly poured a glass of ice water on his head.

"This kind of jade plaque is the lowest level of the storage magic weapon, small in size, and not for a long time, it must be returned to the sect for a period of time to recuperate, of course, there is not much problem for monks with sects, but don't think about how much time you can use for this kind of wild cultivation! The most troublesome thing is that this kind of jade card also has a positioning function, so I suggest you better throw it away! ”

Jia Long saw Ye Chao's reluctance, "If you haven't played enough for the time being, you can also let the Chaos Beast swallow it temporarily, and take it out to play with it every few days, this thing is in its stomach, and there is no way to locate it." Garon gestured to the little beast that had feasted on the table with them.

Ye Chao didn't know that it was because of their random behavior of "playing in the mountains and rivers", coupled with the jade plate put into the belly of the little beast, that they escaped many pursuits.

However, at this time, it was not these that gave Ye Chao the most headache, but the cognitive difficulties in the exercises he cultivated. Originally, he had successfully advanced to the third layer of the "Nine Evils" exercises, but because of this unexpected encounter, all the acupuncture points that had been condensed were scrapped, leaving the only evil pill in his chest. What's worse is that as long as Ye Chao starts to cultivate according to the exercises, there will be a heart-piercing pain in the meridians, so that Ye Chao also understands that at the moment, in addition to the incompatibility of the cultivation environment, the injuries inside his body are very serious, and he can only rely on the so-called "Dragon and Tiger Mountain" mantra to slowly repair it for the time being. The only thing that still has some self-preservation is the ability to release some hallucinogenic gases.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Chao checked out and followed Jia Long to the station of the town, this town had a coal mine in the early days, so it was one of the few places around where the train arrived, with the depletion of coal resources in the later period, the town declined, but the station was not revoked, but the number of trains arriving was reduced a lot, and the station built that year was preserved.

The two walked into the ticket hall, there were only a few people in the station, only two of the five ticket windows were opened, one of them was in the most corner, Jia Long glanced at it, and walked straight to the ticket gate in the most corner.

"See, on the glass of the ticket gate, there is a yellow calendar, if there is someone, the yellow calendar says "Yiyuan Travel", then you can go to this window to buy a ticket to go to the corner lane! Jia Long said to Ye Chao in a low voice.

"Do you have them at all stations?" Ye Chao asked curiously.

"There will be changes, and every time you enter Corner Alley, you can buy a schedule for entering the pit stop, which will be noted."

Jia Long doesn't look like it's the first time he's been to Corner Alley, Door Clear.

The conductor was a man who looked to be in his fifties, with thick eyes, a thin face, a pointed chin, and a salolet, somewhat malnourished face.

"Two tickets to Corner Alley!" Jia Long said to the conductor.

The conductor who was originally playing with his mobile phone at the counter heard Jia Long's greeting, raised his head slightly, looked at Jia Long through the heavy lenses, and Ye Chao who was following behind him.

"Three hundred!" The voice sounded very hoarse and a little frightening.

"It's just two of us, has the price gone up?" Jalon muttered.

"Isn't that little beast a living being? It's not that you don't know the rules, as long as you are a living being, you have to buy a ticket! As he spoke, he glanced at the little beast squatting on Ye Chao's shoulder.

Jia Long turned around and gave Ye Chao a look, along the way, Ye Chao already knew Jia Long's look very well, that is, he hurried to pay for it.

Ye Chao stepped forward and handed over three red tickets. The conductor took it, his hands were like dry bones, and it was estimated that there was only a little skin left, and he shook the three red tickets, confirmed them, and put them in the drawer. Immediately, three matchbox-sized tickets were taken out of the drawer and handed out, along with a half-sheet of printer-paper leaflet with the words "Special Promotion" written on it.

Ye Chao didn't look closely, and took the ticket and leaflet back. The conductor then lowered his head and continued to look at his phone. Ye Chao looked at the ticket in his hand, which was printed with the information on the common train ticket, such as time and train number, the only difference was that the number on the platform waiting for the train was printed in black and bold font and wrote "Platform 9".

"Don't look at it, I'll tell you the trick later!" Jia Long took a ticket from Ye Chao's hand, but he was not interested in the leaflet at all.

"Follow me!" Jia Long turned around and walked out of the ticket hall, the station is very small, a room on the side of the ticket hall is the waiting area, when the two walked in, there were four or five people sitting in the waiting area on the iron chair that had been broken for a long time, Jia Long did not find a place to sit down, but went directly through the waiting area, came to a wooden door next to the pantry, and casually pushed open the wooden door and walked out. Ye Chao could only follow closely behind, but when Ye Chao also pushed open the wooden door, he noticed that there were some water droplet patterns on the door, unlike the one printed now, which looked a little antique.

Walking out of the wooden door, Ye Chao found the waiting hall where they left, Ye Chao was a little puzzled and was about to ask Jia Long what was going on, Jia Long beckoned to him in front, meaning to let him hurry up. Ye Chao walked two steps quickly, followed Jia Long to a corner, and found that there was a wall in front of him, with an arrow painted with white paint, and the words "Platform No. 9" were also marked behind the arrow.

Following the direction of the arrow, after walking for about a minute, a small platform appeared in front of the two, Ye Chao looked around, except for a few pillars, there was no one, each pillar was painted with white paint, the pillars were arranged in a square, and a simple awning was set up on it, which should be a place for people to wait. But when Ye Chao approached, he found that the ground under the platform was overgrown with weeds, and the two railroad tracks were submerged in the grass, which did not look like a train passing by.

"Give me a ticket and let the Chaos Beast hold it!" Jia Long said.

"You can't eat it!" Ye Chao handed the little beast a ticket, and the little beast put the ticket in front of his nose and sniffed it.

Regarding the "Corner Alley" that Jia Long often talks about, Ye Chao is still very much looking forward to it.

"Don't be nervous!" Jia Long pulled Ye Chao to his side, and the two of them and one beast were standing right in the center of the square composed of four pillars.
