Volume 2 The Turbulent Darkness and the Unsettled Turmoil Chapter 188 The whereabouts of the deceased

The young man smiled: "The guest officer is really too polite, please say it." ”

As soon as he entered the town today, Jiang Li noticed something unusual, there were many people and cars in this town, and almost all the inns were full, he was afraid that the people of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect would chase after him, so he said softly: "There are so many people in this town for many years, I see that every inn has hung up a full sign." ”

The young man's expression was stunned, and he hurriedly smiled: "The guest officer thought that it was the first time he came to Danxia Flower Forest, but he didn't know that tonight was a once-in-a-decade ghost gathering." ”

Jiang Li paused slightly, glanced at Luo Kui, and then smiled: "What kind of ghost collection, it sounds very interesting, we are new to the city, and we really don't know." ”

The young man was even more surprised, looked at the two of them, and said with a smile: "The villain said to the two guest officers, this ghost market is different from the usual bazaar, and most of the things sold are the things that immortal cultivators need, and one of them is the most valuable, which is the thing that the Holy Hand Skullcap needs to name, and whoever takes this thing to see him, he can promise that person one thing." Kill a person, or save a person. ”

Jiang Li was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "So, what does the Holy Hand Skullcap want this year." ”

The young man smiled: "Yes, East China Sea Divine Pearl." ”

With a "plop", Jiang Li suddenly squirted a mouthful of soup on the ground, choked and coughed repeatedly, and stumbled: "East China Sea, East China Sea Divine Pearl, how can such a secret treasure of the immortal family appear here." ”

The young man smiled: "What the guest officer said is that such secret treasures are hard to find, and it all depends on luck." The two guest officers used it slowly, and the villain went downstairs to greet the guests next to him. ”

Seeing the young man leaving, Jiang Li suddenly came to his senses, leaned in front of Luo Kui, and whispered mysteriously: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, let's go to the ghost market after eating, if you can really find the East China Sea Divine Pearl, then Skullcap can't refuse to treat your injuries." ”

Luo Kui bowed slightly, took a bite of food, and whispered a little dejectedly: "Do your best, just listen to the destiny of heaven." ”

Hualin Mountain Range is a very famous ancient battlefield, it is rumored that the vast basin is the traces left by the ancient war, and for thousands of years, there are many bold and careful people set foot here, get a lot of rare things that can not be seen outside, and the town of Danxia Hualin is the only place to supply before entering the Hualin Mountain Range, so many people will sell some items that they can't use here after leaving the Hualin Mountain Range, this town has naturally formed a market, and the business is extremely lively. This bazaar is somewhat similar to the ghost market in Qingzhou, but it does not have the forest and yin atmosphere of the ghost market, and it is all bartered, and it is never bought and sold with silver.

Luo Kui and Jiang Li walked all the way and looked all the way, suddenly squatted down in front of a stall, carefully twisted up a yellowish bead, shook it in front of their eyes, and frowned slightly: "This bead is familiar to you." ”

Jiang Li smiled beside her, "I found some treasure." ”

Luo Kui put the beads in his palm and rubbed them, held them, pursed his lips and smiled: "Take a look." ”

"This is," Jiang Li was slightly stunned, and instantly became ecstatic: "This is, the East China Sea Divine Pearl." ”

Luo Kui sneered and sneered: "What do you think, you take a closer look." ”

Jiang Li looked at each other fixedly, couldn't help but let out a long breath, and said, "What kind of rare thing did I have at that time, was it just a bead." ”

Luo Kui pursed her lips and smiled, the yellowish beads swayed in her palm, exuding a warm light like the moon in the dark night, she looked at it for a long time, and there were faint traces of water flowing with the beads, placed in the ears, the sound of the waves could be faintly heard, and then laughed and said: "This is not an ordinary bead, this is a clear water bead, there is a day like a star, a night like the moon, there is no rare in the world." And this bead is carved into a lotus shape, and it is so small, it must be inlaid in some kind of jewelry, and it can be worn all year round, which can increase the comprehension of water spells. ”

Jiang Li smiled: "If you like it, you can stay, and when you go back, it will be set on the hairpin, it must be a light room, very good-looking." ”

Luo Kui was slightly condensed, raised her head, looked at the young stall owner with a smile and asked, "This, what do you want to change?" ”

The young man touched the back of his head and smiled shyly, "I want to change something that a girl can use." ”

Luo Kui was silent for a long time, there were not many objects used by the girl on her body, she reached out and touched it in her sleeve, and touched a cold object, her face sank, and she said lightly: "I have a piece for the girl, do you want to see it." ”

Seeing the young man nodding, Luo Kui took out the mutton fat white jade plum hairpin from his sleeve, stared at it for a long time, and the hairpin seemed to have the breath of Jingmo at the beginning, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart, and reached out and handed it over.

The young man carefully examined it for a long time, and saw that the jade carvings were all of the highest quality, and although they were not beneficial in cultivation, they were really a sharp weapon for chasing girls. He immediately frowned with joy and said, "Girl, would you like to exchange this thing for you?" ”

Luo Kui bowed his head slightly, and said calmly: "My hairpin is far less valuable than your beads, are you sure you want to change it?" ”

The young man nodded firmly, took out a piece of blue flannel, carefully wrapped the hairpin, and placed it in a narrow luodian carved brocade box.

Luo Kui's nose was sour, she hurriedly turned her head, stuffed the beads into Jiang Li's hand with her backhand, and said with a reluctant smile: "Such a precious thing, it's not stable for me to put it, and I don't need it, so you should keep it." ”

Jiang Liang was a little puzzled, he didn't understand why Luo Kui, who was still in high spirits, suddenly became excited, and looked at it carefully, and in the flickering eyes, there were especially a few tears that were fleeting.

He thought of the hairpin, and then thought of the pair of men and women in the City God Temple, and in an instant, the Lingtai was clear, and he was busy catching up with Luo Kui, who had already gone away, and only pressed her shoulder, but did not ask anything.

Just walked a few steps, and saw a small stall at the corner of the street in the distance, and a few children gathered in front of the stall, smiling and pointing to a disc on the stall, scrambling to say: "I'll turn around, I'll turn first." ”

Luo Kui's eyes lit up, and he walked up quickly, looking at the objects on the stall and couldn't move his steps.

Jiang Li followed and looked over, and laughed: "It turns out that you like this." ”

The wood-colored disc is painted with birds and animals, auspicious flowers and fruits, and characters in the play, and there is a long pointer in the center of the disc, and when you turn it with your hand, the pointer will rotate rapidly, only for a moment, the speed will slow down, and finally stop at a pattern.

A white slate was placed on the side of the disc, and the gray-haired old man scooped up the melted sugar juice with a small spoon, and poured it back and forth on the slate quickly, and in an instant, he drew the pattern that the pointer pointed to.

Luo Kui smacked her tongue while looking at it, and even swallowed a little saliva involuntarily, and smiled coquettishly: "Yes, I liked to eat sugar cakes the most when I was young, but unfortunately my father always said that this thing was not clean and I was not allowed to eat it, every time I returned to Su," she paused slightly, and her voice stopped abruptly.

Hearing this Su word, Jiang Liang's face suddenly changed, and he said in an unkind tone: "Su what, Su Lingquan, little demon girl, why do you always think of him, why do you try your best to protect him." ”

Luo Kui pursed her dry lips, took a few steps back, and sat on the steps in the shadows, the bluestone was cold, as if water had seeped into her clothes.

The moon shadow fell on Jiang Li's face, his expression was dim, he was stunned for a long time, took off the cloak on his body, pulled up Luo Kui with one hand, and spread the cloak on the steps with the other, before pulling her to sit beside him, looking sideways, gritting his teeth and sighing: "You say, I'll listen." ”

Luo Kui buried his head in his knees, thought for a long time, and then raised his head and said calmly: "I am named the same door as Su Lingquan, I am actually a brother and sister, for more than ten years, it is he who has raised me to grow up, it is he who has passed on my magic cultivation, and it is he who protects me all the time, takes care of me, and does not allow others to bully me." She turned her head to look at Jiang Liang fixedly, becoming more and more quiet as stagnant water: "Jiang Liang, he is the devil in your mouth, but he is also my only brother, I am the demon girl in your mouth, but I am also his only relative." ”

Jiang Li's heart fluctuated terribly, over the years, he could hardly hear the name Su Lingquan, and he felt hatred when he heard it, but now, he heard a completely different person from Luo Kui's mouth, he rubbed the corner of his clothes, and said in a trembling voice: "You go on." ”

Luo Kui stared into the distance, as if watching the passage of time, with the untraceable old things, showing a trace of fascination, it was one of her few good days, carefree, she said calmly: "Back then, Su Lingquan led me out of the house, will secretly buy me one, I was reluctant to eat, always take it to see, until the front of the house, I was willing to eat, and then Su Lingquan saw that I was really hungry, and I actually went to learn this craft and made sugar cakes for me at home." Her expression darkened, and she sighed faintly: "Later, my father left, and Su Lingquan and I became more and more busy, and no one could think of doing this and eating this." ”

Jiang Li looked at the hint of a coquettish smile on her face, lost her mind for a while, and forgot to hate Su Lingquan, raised her hand and brushed her hair, and said with a low smile: "Su, Su Lingquan treats you so well." ”

"Yes," Luo Kui smiled wistfully, since her father died, she said that she and Su Lingquan depended on each other, but in fact, he raised her and blessed her safety, he learned not only the craft of making sugar cakes, but also his skills in making money, fists and feet and the ability to escape, most of which he learned at that time. He could have devoted himself to cultivation and be an immortal who was not stained with red dust, but in the past few decades, he has taken on the notoriety of being a bloodthirsty Dao devil. Luo Kui lowered her eyes slightly, hiding the mist under her eyes.

Jiang Liang couldn't accept such a Su Lingquan for a while, and was silent, only watching people come and go.

Seeing that the children were holding a sugar cake and scattered with a smile, and Jiang Liang did not mention Su Lingquan's matter again, Luo Kui breathed a sigh of relief, walked quickly to the front of the stall, and was about to raise his hand to turn the pointer, but his hand was held down by Jiang Li, and he couldn't help but be stunned and looked at each other.
