Actually, until I saw this, everything was quite normal.

The big deal is that two alchemists who have not been stained with secular red dust go down the mountain to join the old master.

But if it's really that simple, why would Huang Yue make it look like this?

Yu Chen continued to look down.

Let's say that when Huang Yue went down the mountain, it was eight years ago, when he was twenty-two years old and his sister Huang Yanshu was fifteen years old.

The two of them stepped into the bustling capital, and saw the crowd of people, prosperous back and forth, bead curtains and green curtains, and 100,000 households, and immediately stared at each other.

His brothers are pure in the mountains every day, where have they ever seen such a beautiful scenery?

Huang Yanshu was stupid at the time, and his eyes were shining.

But Huang Yue is older after all, and he remembers that the teacher said that his sister is extremely talented, and she is very well-behaved and beautiful, and this red world, which seems to be prosperous, is actually full of dirt and dirt, and is full of dangers.

Immediately took the fifteen-year-old Huang Yanshu to stay in the inn for one night, and immediately followed the master's last words to look for the big official who had the grace of a meal.

After many inquiries between failures, he finally determined that the young man who had been saved by his master was already a squire in one of the six departments of the imperial court.

Four products!

Huang Yue didn't know what this meant at the time, but he heard from the common people that the position of the waiter was a man in the sky for hundreds of people and grass people!

Hearing this, Huang Yue was immediately overjoyed!

Then he went to the Shilang Mansion.

At that time, Cao Yu'an, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, was nearly forty years old, and he was in high spirits.

And he is also a person of great affection, seeing Huang Yue's explanation, and looking at the broken bowl at the beginning, after learning the death of Master Huang Yue, he immediately cried and grabbed the ground, beat his chest, and said that such a kind-hearted person, but the world is impermanent, so he drove to the west!

Huang Yue and Huang Yanshu saw this scene, and they were also moved by Cao Yu'an, who was very affectionate in front of them, and felt that the teacher did not save the wrong person at the beginning!

After some family cooking, Cao Yu'an assured the brothers and sisters that as long as they were alive for a day, they would never be hungry!

Subsequently, he arranged for his henchmen to take the Huang Yue brothers and sisters to eat, drink and have fun in the capital, and they were free for more than half a month.

Eat the best, drink the best, wear the best, play the most expensive...... Looking at the silver that was spent like flowing water, Huang Yue felt embarrassed.

But Cao Yu'an said that if it weren't for the kindness of the original meal, he Cao Yu'an would have turned into a mountain bone long ago, where would there be this achievement today, let them have a good time, don't have scruples!

So, under such rhetoric, the Huang Yue brothers and sisters were full of respect for this Ministry of Works.

At the same time, in terms of the future of the two, Cao Yuan is also very concerned!

personally applied for the identity fish cards for the two of them, and tested the qualifications of the two of them.

Knowing that his sister Huang Yanshu was extremely talented, he bluntly said that he would send Huang Yanshu to a great avenue in the capital to learn and practice.

Although Huang Yue has average talent, Cao Yuan also arranged a bounty hunter's errand for him, and asked a few veterans to take him personally.

When the time of separation came, Huang Yanshu wanted to enter the Great Daoguan to practice, and Huang Yue wanted to stay in the capital.

My sister cried profusely, and my brother also had tears in his eyes, telling her to practice hard and get ahead.

So the two parted.

And since then, Huang Yue has never seen his sister once in eight years!

Listening to Cao Yu'an, Huang Yanshu has become a disciple of the Great Dao Guanguan, and the management is extremely strict, and even in order to temper the Dao heart, it is impossible to even step out of the mountain gate in the past few years.

Huang Yue listened, although he missed his sister in his heart, but he thought that it was also for her good, and Huang Yanshu would send letters to the capital every month, so he never had any suspicions.

Time has passed in a flash, and a year has passed.

Cao Yu'an also had a smooth career, and at the age of more than forty, he sat in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and also hung up his name in Shangshu Province, which can be described as beautiful for a while.

And with the promotion of the bar, it became more and more difficult for Huang Yue to see this Ministry of Works, and Cao Yu'an's care and help to him gradually decreased.

But even so, Huang Yue didn't have any complaints.

He knew very well that the teacher was just a gift to him at the beginning, and now that he has helped his own brothers and sisters so much, he has already paid it off.

So in the days to come, he would never trouble Cao Yu'an when he encountered anything.

It wasn't until the third year that his sister Huang Yanshu's letter was suddenly broken.

There has been no news since.

Huang Yuecai found Cao Yu'an again and asked for him to be introduced, he wanted to see his sister.

But Cao Yu'an shook his head helplessly, saying that he was just a court official and couldn't interfere with the actions of those Daoguan.

The Lord of the Views did not allow his disciples to meet with outsiders, and he could not do it.

At the end, he also said that although the temporary separation was painful, Huang Yanshu was in a critical period of cultivation at this time, and she must not block her path to heaven because of ordinary family affection.

Huang Yue listened, although he had some doubts in his heart, but he couldn't find anything to refute, so he left Shangshu Mansion.

In this way, time passed, and another five years passed.

Time to come this year,

Eight years of time, eight years of bounty career, Huang Yue has changed from the stunned young man to a middle-aged alchemist, and his realm has also broken through from the original realm of opening the sea to the realm of spiritual appearance.

Five days ago, during a break from work, he went to the "ghost market" in the capital on Gusu Mountain as usual to exchange for some magic weapons and spiritual materials.

And the so-called "ghost market", Yu Chen has also heard of it.

The so-called "ghost" is unsightly.

The ghost market, naturally, is the same, it is not a serious market that the Ministry of Industry has filed a file, but a gray industry.

It is rumored that during the period of the first emperor, because the imperial court was martial and vigorously encouraged cultivation, the number of casual cultivation skyrocketed.

At the same time, in addition to the difficulty of managing public security, the Beijing market has also become quite chaotic.

You can even see that the vendor on the left is selling candy, but the vendor on the right is selling the terrifying poison Gu.

At that time, the capital city of Fang City, not only firewood, rice, oil and salt, clothing, food, housing and transportation, but also those alchemists were also trading in the market.

The miasma of black smoke is mixed.

It has brought great difficulties to the governance of the capital market.

The imperial court has rectified it many times, but it has no effect.

After all, the base of those scattered cultivators was too large, and it would be absolutely unrealistic to completely ban them from buying and selling.

It was even rumored that a minister's family went out to buy pig embryos to boil medicine and drink, and they came back with a bag of Zihe cars......

As a result, the queen mother at that time, that is, the now deceased queen mother, the strange woman who was called "Queen Qi", proposed to the first emperor the governance method of "blocking is better than sparse".

She realized that it was impossible to completely eradicate the gray transactions between the alchemists, and she felt that she had gathered them together and separated them from the market in the capital.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty discussed for a long time, and finally the first emperor made a decision, so he did it!

As a result, all the transactions of loose cultivation were expelled from the capital city, and it was forbidden to trade anything extraordinary in the mortal market; However, it is possible to set up a market outside the city outside of the capital city that specializes in trading extraordinary things.

As a result, outside the capital, large and small extraordinary markets were erected.

After several years of development, the "ghost market" on Gusu Mountain is the largest and famous.

The ghost market is divided into two parts, the outer square and the inner square.

Outside, there is nothing unusual, what is sold is some natural treasures, classic spirit soldiers.

As for the inner square, it's not very visible, and there are all kinds of things in it.

Huang Yue has been in the capital for eight years, and he has never been in the outer square, and has never entered the inner square.

But ten days ago, he couldn't resist the invitation of a fellow bounty hunter and followed him into the inner square.

If you want to say that this ghost city is in the city, it deserves the word "ghost".

Anything here is enough to make the average person blush.

What ornaments made of wax sealing of beautiful female corpses, potted plants grafted by people and trees, incense burners made of skulls, dolls made of infant corpses......

Only you can't think of it, there's nothing you can't buy in the inner square.

As soon as Huang Yue entered, he felt panicked in his heart, and it was difficult to get out of breath.

Looking at those terrifying things, my brows furrowed, I just felt like I had come to hell on earth, and my scalp was numb!

And his colleague said that this is how it is.

Whether it is the alchemists or those dignitaries in the capital, there are always some psychopathic guys, and the inner fang is the place to satisfy their dark desires.

Here, you can even buy a living person!

With that, the colleague took him to the largest trading house in the inner square, the mirage.

In that huge nine-story building, there happened to be a small auction, and the colleague pulled Huang Yue to join in the fun.

And those auctioned things also made Huang Yue frown.

This side is more perverted than the rest of the inner square.

Half-human, half-demon cubs, people with amputated limbs, scorpions soaked in wine, and even corpses packaged and sold...... And the guests below are wearing masks, but their blood is boiling.

Huang Yue looked at it for a while and wanted to leave.

He understands that he is not from this dark world.

But just as he was about to turn away, a lot caught his eye.

It was a box, five feet high, four feet long and wide, with a carved surface, and it was very delicate.

Directly in front of it is a door-like switch that seems to open like a door at the touch of a mechanism.

According to the colleague, this thing is called "Woman in the Box", and the inside of the box is nothing else, it is the heads of some women, and when they are just dead, they cut off their heads and refine them with secret methods to keep them fresh.

Because of the blessing of the secret method, even if the head inside is dead, it still maintains its instinctive vitality and essence.

Just say a specific command to activate the box's incantation, and the head inside will make expressions and sounds.

- It's not a magic weapon, but it's a thing for those who are curious.

With the faint sound of music, the main beater pressed the mechanism, and the door of the box slowly opened, revealing the most beautiful head inside.

Under the spell, she smiled.

Glamour like no other.

But Huang Yue was stunned.

Trembling all over.

The face under the mask is extremely hideous in an instant!

- Look at the head in that box, it's none other than his sister who is studying in the Great Daoguan!
