Chapter 42: Shuangxue Inn
"Because the ghost cultivation in the inner city is open, it is no different from ordinary people, so this inner city is a bit like an ordinary town, during which there are many merchants, and all kinds of ghost cultivators in the neighborhood come and go like cars, buffalo and horses... ”
Wu Zhou was introducing the inner city to a few people, and before he finished speaking, he heard Cheng Ru interrupt: "The ghosts still open workshops and shops? What do they sell? It can't be alcohol or something." ”
Wu Zhou smiled: "It's really a drink or something." ”
Cheng Ru was interested, "You ghosts can also eat wine, you eat one, I'll take a look." ”
Wu Zhou said with a smile: "This wine is not as good as your yang wine, but it is specially made of yin qi and incense, called yin brewing, which has the effect of nourishing the yin body and consolidating cultivation for ghost cultivation, and some famous yin brews are not only rich in wine, but also can enhance cultivation!"
Cheng Ru sighed and asked, "Then can I taste it?"
Wu Zhou looked at Cheng Ru and smiled a little thief, "Yes, I can definitely taste it!"
Cheng Ru was full of longing for the scene in the inner city, and said that he must take a bite of yin brew later to see what it tasted like!
Just walked along the avenue at the gate of the city and walked half a pillar of incense into a street, Cheng Ruye's face turned white.
What Wu Zhou said was indeed right, the neighborhoods in the inner city were not much different from the towns in the sun, but when the few of them were walking on the street, all the ghost cultivators on the side of the road stopped and stared at them in a daze. The green, blue, red, or white pupils made Cheng Ru feel that he was already in hell, but after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Cheng Ru trembled and said to Wu Zhou: "I think these ghost cultivators don't seem to be very friendly to us." ”
Wu Zhou said with a smile: "Can this be friendly? The separation between yin and yang is like the sky." Think about it, if a few ghosts appear in the town of the sun one day, don't you keep an eye on these ghosts?"
Cheng Ru whispered in defense: "Where will you stare at them? It's good not to be scared away!"
Wu Zhou was stunned, and felt that what Cheng Ru said seemed to be this reason.
Jiang Lili looked left and right, glared at a ghost cultivator next to him who looked extremely malicious, and then asked Wu Zhou, "There are so many ghost cultivators here, who do we ask?"
Wu Zhou said: "Plus this time, in fact, I have only been to this ghost city twice, and I am not familiar with the ghost cultivators among them, why don't we find a ghost cultivator at random and ask who is the most well-informed ghost cultivator in this inner city?"
As soon as the words fell, I only heard Cheng Ru hurriedly say: "I think it's better to forget it, let's think about it in the long run, and whether it can be discussed in the long run?"
At this time, Miao Xiaomei, who was following Jiang Lili and a few others, suddenly asked, "What do you want to ask? I saw the two of you babbling non-stop early in the morning, is there any secret?"
Jiang Lili turned his head and sneered: "Even if there is a secret, can I tell you?" Now that you are in this inner city, you can go wherever you want!"
Miao Xiaomei snorted coldly, "I don't think it's a good thing, don't ask if you don't ask, so as not to get in the way of my eyes!"
As she was talking, Miao Xiaomei took out a small compass from her arms, Wu Zhou hurriedly covered the compass in his hand, and asked in a deep voice, "What are you going to do?"
Miao Xiaomei's face was slightly cold, "What are you going to do?
Wu Zhou's face also turned gloomy, "You Taoist priests play tricks and hide in their stomachs first, now this is a ghost town, tell me which ghost cultivator is used to killing ghosts, don't drag us into the water if you don't want to live!"
Miao Xiaomei was stunned, the hand holding the compass slowly withdrew from her waist, turned her head to glance around, and put the compass into the cloth bag on her waist
Inside.
Wu Zhou was only a few steps away from Miao Xiaomei, "Fortunately, the Taoist robe you are wearing is a little weird, it looks like the clothes worn by the daughter of the boudoir, otherwise I am afraid that thousands of ghost cultivators have come to you to ask for your life!"
After listening to Wu Zhou's words, Miao Xiaomei's face turned slightly pale.
Wu Zhou's face suddenly became solemn after snorting coldly, he sighed, and muttered that it was really difficult to do, and when he turned his head, he saw two ghost cultivators, one large and one small, coming from the shop on the side road.
The tall ghost cultivator had a hideous face, two horns on his head, eyes like copper bells, and a boulder, while the short ghost cultivator looked like a dwarf, with a shriveled body, like a dry corpse, squatting on the shoulders of the tall ghost cultivator, looking at everyone with two green eyes, and his playful eyes swept across the faces of Jiang Lili and several people.
Jiang Lili stared at the ghost Xiu and licked his lips.
The tall ghost cultivator walked in front of Wu Zhou, and two extremely long green smoke erupted from his nostrils, "Strange face!"
Wu Zhou couldn't see whether the intentions of these two ghost cultivators were good or bad, "It's not a stranger, I came to this ghost town once in more than ten years." ”
"I didn't see you then. The tall ghost cultivator's voice was extremely heavy.
"The contemptible man has not seen your Excellency. ”
The tall ghost Xiu didn't speak, and the dwarf-like ghost Xiu jumped up from his shoulder, first landed on Cheng Ruye's head, and grabbed Cheng Ruye's head with both hands and lowered his face to look at Cheng Ruyi's eyes.
Cheng Ru was frightened, pale, trembling and didn't dare to make a sound.
This ghost cultivator only felt bored, turned around and jumped on Miao Xiaomei's shoulder, put his face next to Miao Xiaomei's cheek and sniffed fiercely.
Miao Xiaomei's face was ugly, but she still remembered that she was in a ghost town now, and she had never had a seizure.
The claws of the dwarf ghost cultivator gently slashed across Miao Xiaomei's white and tender neck, and turned around to jump on Jiang Lili's head.
Jiang Lili knew the intention of this dwarf ghost cultivator, sneered at him, and put his right hand on the handle of the tiger spirit knife on his waist.
The dwarf ghost cultivator and Jiang Lili looked at each other for a long time and then did not jump on Jiang Lili's body again, but jumped up from Miao Xiaomei's shoulder with a smile, and jumped left and right in the air, shouting in an extremely sharp voice: "Born man! Born man! It's a living person in the yang world!"
Immediately, the dwarf ghost cultivator landed on the tall ghost cultivator's shoulders again, his teeth biting his nails, making a weird squeak, and he whispered again: "It's a man from the yang world!"
The tall ghost cultivator looked at Wu Zhou, and said angrily, "Are these people your slaves?"
Wu Zhou thought for a moment and grinned, "That's right, it's my slave." ”
Jiang Lili and the others were silent.
The dwarf ghost cultivator screamed again: "When you get here, they won't necessarily be your slaves!"
Wu Zhou twisted his neck, opened his mouth and roared at these two ghost cultivators, his body swelled violently, and there were more than ten feet, his fangs were jagged, his sharp claws were sharp, and his pupils burned with extremely vigorous green!
The faces of the tall ghost cultivator and the dwarf ghost cultivator showed a trace of fear.
After a loud roar, Wu Zhou reverted to his original form and smiled at the two ghost cultivators, "Are they my slaves now?"
"The two of us may not be able to beat you!" the tall ghost replied straightly, "Therefore, the two of us will not rob your slaves, and if we don't rob you, we won't rob you!"
"But it's not necessarily still your slave!" the dwarf ghost cultivator stretched his neck and screamed at Wu Zhou: "The ghost cultivator here is like a cloud, and there are hundreds of people who are stronger than you! You slave who has not been left for a long time! Why don't you sell one or two of them to us, and ten Soul Crystals per person?"
Cheng Ru looked panicked, hid behind Jiang Lili and cried quietly: "Wu Zhou won't really sell us, I already knew that he was not a good thing."
Son, okay, this time finally reveals his true nature!"
"Shut up!" Jiang Lili snorted at Cheng Ru and continued to observe the movements of the surrounding ghost cultivators.
"What if I don't sell it?" Wu Zhou teased as he looked at the dwarf ghost cultivator.
The tall ghost cultivator thought for a moment, "If you don't sell it, we really can't do anything." ”
"Shut up, shut up!" the dwarf ghost cultivator scratched angrily at the tall ghost cultivator's face, "You idiot!
After being angry, this dwarf ghost cultivator turned his head to look at Wu Zhou and sneered, "We really can't do anything about you!" But you have to know, how long has it been since you saw a living person in this ghost town? Although the ghost city can now come and go at will, and the bloodthirsty ghost cultivators have all left the ghost town, can the ghost cultivators who stay here to cultivate be the ones who are cultivating in peace?"
Saying that, this dwarf ghost cultivator jumped up on the shoulders of the tall ghost cultivator, and said sharply while sneering: "Ghost cultivators who absorb yang qi to cultivate will make their yin body mixed up, which will hinder their advancement! But so many ghost cultivators, can they be less of the kind of people who want to open meat for themselves? I said, you can't keep it! It's better to sell them to me, and I'll sell them to the big people in the ghost hall, let's benefit from them in twos, okay?"
Wu Zhou smiled again, "If my slave is sold at will, won't it be a slap in my face?"
The dwarf ghost cultivator became angry, "Fool! Fool! Self-righteous fool! You just wait to be devoured by the big people in the ghost hall!"
Saying that, the dwarf ghost Xiu patted the tall ghost Xiu's head, and when he was about to turn around and leave, Wu Zhou said again: "Let's stay." ”
The dwarf ghost cultivator turned his face impatiently, "What are you doing?!"
"The contemptible wants to do a small business with you. ”
"What business?" "The dwarf ghost cultivator was interested, and jumped on Wu Zhou's shoulder, "Say it quickly, what business." ”
"I want to know who the most well-informed person in this inner city is right now!"
The gnome ghost's eyes rolled, "You said it was a deal!"
"A piece of Stygian Crystal!"
The dwarf ghost thought for a while, "No, you didn't give me face, no!"
"Two pieces!"
"Not really!"
"Then I'm leaving!"
"Cheng Cheng Cheng Cheng!" The dwarf ghost took the two pieces of dark crystals thrown by Wu Zhou, swallowed them into his abdomen, lazily returned to the tall ghost cultivator's shoulder and lay down, and pointed casually, "Go straight, turn right at the first intersection, continue to walk, you can see an inn, the name is Shuangxue, the proprietress inside knows the most!"
Wu Zhou nodded, "Let's go!"
The dwarf ghost waved his hand lazily, "Don't send it!"
Cheng Ru breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out that these ghost cultivators are still easy to talk to." ”
Wu Zhou replied: "The dwarf ghost just now said that the ghost cultivator kills people to be recorded on the foundation by the Heavenly Dao, which hinders the advancement. Those powerful ghosts sucking yang energy to cultivate is nothing more than yin and yang attracting, and then there is a strong resentment in their hearts, and killing people is just revenge. As long as it is a ghost cultivator who refines spiritual wisdom, it will basically not harm people. Not to mention that these ghost cultivators can remember the things they did in their lifetimes, and except for some Taoist priests, they don't actually have much malice towards people. ”
"You said it earlier, scared me to death!" Cheng Ru patted his chest, it seemed that the fear in his heart was much less, and he dared to glance at the shop next to him, "It's easy to talk, just now we are still worried about where to get the news, this is about it! ”
Wu Zhou smiled and didn't reply, saying that he didn't care about these false names.
Jiang Lili pondered for a moment and then said to Wu Zhou: "Didn't you say that you don't have anything else on you? How can there be such a thing as a dark crystal? You dare to hide your secrets?"
Wu Zhou was dumbfounded.
