Chapter 36: The Ghost Market

Yun Tian, who returned to the hotel, sat on the bed and played with the stone statue in his hand, but his mind was recalling the words that the stall owner said just now, I didn't expect that there was such a place in Guifu, every two o'clock in the morning will be held in a place on the outskirts of Guifu, according to the stall owner, the reason for the formation of the ghost market at the beginning is not clear, but now the ghost market is gradually forming a scale, every two o'clock in the morning, there will be a large number of people with strange things to the ghost market for sale, the ghost market is also not refused, according to rumors, even if it is a bullet for sale, it is really incredible。 The stone statue in Yuntian's hand was also bought by the stall owner in the ghost market, and the reason why Yuntian bought this stone statue was because this stone statue was carved with two heads and four arms, which was very similar to the stone statue worshiped by the old man in Xiangfu, so he was interested in buying it and taking a look. It seems that it is inevitable to go to the ghost market tonight!

At one o'clock in the morning, Yuntian and Russell got out of the hotel, took a taxi on the side of the road and drove all the way to the location of the ghost market that the stall owner said, but I didn't expect the taxi master to hear where Yuntian was going, and immediately asked if Yuntian was going to the ghost market, it seems that the ghost market is really famous in Guifu. Along the way, Yuntian asked the taxi master if he knew anything about the ghost market, but he didn't expect the taxi master to be a talkative person, so he chatted with Yuntian about the news and stories of the ghost market along the way. Moreover, all the stall owners in the ghost market will hide their true identities, and the things they sell are also bizarre, they have everything, and they can even buy murder through the ghost market.

When they arrived at the location of the ghost market, Yuntian and Russell, who got out of the car, found that the ghost market was held in a very large ravine, the ravine was very deep, and the mountains on both sides were like two giant beasts guarding here in the dark night, plus the mountain peaks were steep, and the moonlight and starlight could not shine in at all, causing the ravine to be particularly gloomy and infiltrating. Now there are a lot of cars parked on the side of the road, and there are a lot of people gathered here, and the stalls are all filled with the valley early and in an orderly order, and there are places everywhere. Yun Tian and Russell also walked in to see if they could find the guy who sold the stone statues.

Entering the ghost market, Yun Tiancai found that this place is not like a normal night market, so noisy, this place is very quiet, the stall owner will not shout anything, and the tourists will not ask what loudly, if there is really something eye-catching, the tourists will also communicate with the stall owner in a low voice. And this way into Yuntian is an eye-opener, the things sold here are really wonderful, there are common jewelry toys, there are root carving antiques, and there are rare game, and there is even a stall where the stall owner directly put out an iron cage, which turned out to be a northern sea lion. You must know that the northern sea lion is an internationally protected animal! Yun Tian and Russell toured one stall after another, until they stopped in front of the stall of a man dressed in black, because there was an urn-like box on this stall, the box was more than three inches long, the surface was engraved with dragons and phoenixes, and it was inlaid with gold-edged jade pillars, which was worth a lot of money at a glance, but Russell quietly said to Yun Tian that he must buy this thing.

"How much does this box cost?" Yun Tian said to the man in black in a low voice:

"One hundred thousand!"

"Deal!" I didn't expect the stall owner to be a woman, but the transaction ended quickly.

After the transaction was completed, Yuntian stood up and continued to walk towards the stall in front, but he had already whispered to Russell, "What's in this box?"

"I just felt that this box exuded a faint cold aura, so I probed it with the Void Eye, but I didn't expect it to be that thing. Nether Stone!"

"Nether Stone? ”

"According to rumors, the Netherworld Stone can only be formed in the Netherworld or the ancient battlefield where hundreds of thousands of people died, it is a stone with huge ghost power condensed by a huge number of ghosts and ghosts, this kind of stone is extremely cold to the touch, and it will slowly absorb people's spirit and blood, which is very evil. ”

"How could this stuff be here?"

"I don't know, now is not the time to observe, go to the ghost market first, and wait until you go back to see what is going on. ”

Putting aside his curiosity about the Netherstone for the time being, Yun Tian then walked around the ghost market, but he didn't expect that soon Yun Tian stopped again, this time it was Russell who reminded Yun Tian out loud, Yun Tian squatted down and played with a piece of tree root on the stall in front of him: "How to sell this section of tree roots?"

"Three Hundred"

"Why is this section of roots so expensive!"

"What do you know, young man, this root is that one day heavy rain and lightning struck a towering tree, causing the towering tree to die, but I didn't expect that after a year, new shoots appeared under the roots of this big tree, and this root is the root of this big tree, which has the power of lightning. ”

"How do I know if what you say is true or false, what if you give me a piece of ordinary tree root?"

"Why am I so old to lie to you?

"Yes, who said I don't want it, three hundred, for you. ”

The stall owner directly snatched the money in Yun Tian's hand, for fear that Yun Tian would regret it. And Yun Tian also picked up the root and Russell walked away directly, and walked around for more than half an hour, although he bought another thing, but still did not meet the guy who sold the stone statue, just when Yun Tian was a little disheartened and ready to leave, there was a sudden quarrel in a stall in front of him, and the sudden quarrel in such a quiet place attracted many people to look sideways, Yun Tian was also attracted to the past, it was a young man holding a stone in his hand and arguing with the stall owner wearing a mask, and Yun Tian, who listened for a while, understood that the stone in the hand of the young man was bought in this stallAccording to the stall owner, this stone is a rare piece of stone-wrapped jade, but he does not dare to guarantee that this stone can be 100% jade. The young man saw that the eyes of wealth were opened, and he spent a lot of money to buy this stone and ran to a gambling stone stall next door to find someone to open this stone wrapped in jade, but he didn't expect the stone to be cut into four petals or did not cut out the jade, and the young man who felt deceived came to find it. But the stall owner just bit it alive and died, and told the guy at the beginning that he couldn't 100% guarantee to open jade, and the gambling component was larger. This is what the guy is willing to buy, and it has nothing to do with him, so he quarreled back and forth. But in the end, the young man still left stupidly, although he still scolded in his mouth, but he still didn't want to make too much trouble in the ghost market. However, Yun Tian squatted down in front of this stall, pointed to a stone statue on the stall and asked, how much is this stone statue?

"Fifty thousand!"

"Fifty thousand?" This time, even Yun Tian wanted to scold the stall owner, but he still suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart: "It's too expensive, it's cheaper." ”

"Make a bid!"

"Five hundred! Not even a single point high!"

"Deal!"

,,,,,, "I'll give you another thousand and ask you a question." ”

"You ask"

"Where did you get this stone statue?"

"Is it a little lower for you to ask a thousand yuan for this question?" The stall owner probably also saw that Yuntian bought the stone statue fake, and asked if the reason for the stone statue was true.

"As long as the answer you give can satisfy me, naturally the price I give you can also satisfy you!"

The stall owner looked left and right, and then asked the stall owner next to him to take a look at the stall, and then waved his hand at Yun Tian into the woods behind, and then turned his head into the woods, Yun Tian and Russell also followed, entered the woods, and through the lights of the ghost market, Yun Tian found that the stall owner who took off the mask was a rough man in his forties,

"Now you can say it, you can say more money first!" the stall owner looked at Russell on the side

"As long as the information is reliable and accurate, I will give you fifty thousand. It's okay for her, the eldest brother just says it!"

"Okay, this stone statue was found one day when I was young and followed my village people to hunt in the mountains, and found it in a place called Lost Soul Tai far away from my home, when we were hunting around Lost Soul Tai, at this time suddenly a stone statue fell from the sky, which is what you are playing with now, this stone statue fell down and just disturbed our hunting prey, so we pounced on it, so we were very angry with this stone statue, and smashed this stone statue several times, who knew that usually smashing stones can be smashed open** But not even a mark on this stone statue, just when everyone was surprised, an uncle in our village spoke, saying that this stone statue fell from the sky must be related to our fate, we will take this stone statue back to the village to offer, so we took the stone statue home, put it in the uncle's house. Usually during the New Year's holidays, we will also go to put incense on this stone statue or something, and this stone statue is really spiritual, so there are many people in the village who carve a lot of stone statues in the same way, and some of them I took out and sold in this ghost market. ”

"Then did anything strange happen to this stone statue in your village, and did anything change to that uncle?"

The middle-aged stall owner thought for a moment and replied: "Yes, since the stone statue entered the village, there have been more sick people in the village, but they can't find the cause, I feel that everyone in the village is listless every day, as for the uncle, since he has this stone statue, he is still good at the beginning, but then he often disappears with the stone statue for a period of time, and then reappears." Every time I reappear, I feel that my uncle has become much younger. ”

"This is 50,000 yuan, take it, can the eldest brother tell me the name of your village?"

"Yes, Li Village. ”

"Thank you, big brother" After speaking, Yuntian walked out of the grove and walked all the way to the outside of the ghost market, this trip to the ghost market was very fruitful, especially the source of the stone statue was finally clarified, it seems that the trip to the Lost Soul is essential. Just as Yun Tian was about to take a taxi back to the city at the gate of the ghost market, Yu Guang saw that the female stall owner who sold his ghost stone was hurrying towards the mountain on the side, followed by a few people. Yun Tian, who was full of curiosity, decided to follow and find out, and if he had the chance, he could ask the female stall owner where the Netherworld Stone came from. Thinking about this, Yun Tian no longer hesitated, and quietly raised his skills and followed Russell quietly.
