Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Ghost Market

The two sat in the teahouse for more than an hour, listening to Ah Lu talk about the taboos of the ghost market.

I don't know if the excitement of Xuanqing's immortal death hasn't passed, or if the courage of the immortal cultivator is too big, Dong Junqin doesn't seem to be worried at all that he will be detained in the ghost market and won't be able to come back.

When it got dark, the two walked to a remote path.

Dong Junqin followed Ah Lu to the wall, and sure enough, the old man at the door of the coffin shop was carrying something inside.

Dong Junqin said softly: "This old man practices Gu and lowers his head, doesn't the people of the Netherworld come to arrest him?"

Ah Lu shook his head: "The miscarriage of a dead baby will make trouble even if it reaches the netherworld, the ghost is not easy to deal with, the attack is weak and cannot be suppressed, and the strong one is easy to hurt the Yuan Ling." So just let the old man raise him, and when the old man's longevity is exhausted, even he will go down with the ghosts, and then the resentment of these babies will be used up, and it will be much easier. But I've heard of it, and I'm not sure how I haven't seen it. However, I have seen a prostitute who died of a small birth, and when she arrived in the ghost market, the ghosts of the three children she took away were haunted day by day, and finally she went crazy and preferred to go to hell to be tortured. ”

Dong Junqin has encountered this kind of thing. Therefore, he practiced medicine and did not treat three things: those who were fierce and evil did not receive medical treatment, those who sought death did not receive medical treatment, and those who had abortions at will did not receive medical treatment.

In the courtyard, the old man counted the jars, then cast a spell to make an enchantment, and left.

Dong Junqin opened the eye of heaven, and sure enough, there was a group of small bodies with white flowers in the courtyard that were rolling and crawling.

"Dong Junqin. "You see, there's a little jar there, which is different from the one next to it, and it's corpse oil. I'm going to lure the imp away, and you'll find a way to break the barrier and get in, and soak this broken step. ”

The enchantment is not strong, if there is no imp, he can easily enter it, but: "You're not afraid that old man will come back?"

Ah Lu said: "So move fast!"

Dong Junqin was speechless, so he quietly used a few paper figures to follow the old man after Ah Lu climbed over the wall, turning into officials and people who bought coffins.

When the little ghost saw her, he couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe for a while, so he gathered in front of her to observe.

To be honest, although these little ghosts have hideous faces, they are quite cute after watching them for a long time. So she took out a handful of candy-like things from her sleeve and threw them at the imps, and they all fell on the ground and ate them, and from time to time they let out "clucking" ghost laughter.

Dong Junqin's side, after entering the enchantment, opened the jar containing the corpse oil, and a strange fragrance slammed into his nose.

Dong Junqin felt that his heavenly spirit cover was about to be incense to death, so he hurriedly covered his nose and mouth with one hand and put the rags into the jar with the other.

By the time he was done, the imp outside had fallen asleep. Dong Junqin's Qianli heard the hurried footsteps of the old man not far away, and hurriedly called Ah Lu to prepare to escape.

The old man didn't come out to find someone in a hurry, Ah Lu said: "I have stunned his little ghost, he can't take care of it now, hahahaha." Dong Junqin smiled and handed over the rag, and Ah Lu crumpled it into a ball, put it in a small bottle, and then hung it around Dong Junqin's neck and put it in the placket.

Leaving the courtyard, the two came to the upper reaches of a small river in the city of Luozhou.

Alu said: "This is the entrance, we have to go into the water." ”

As soon as Ah Lu finished speaking, Dong Junqin saw a basket containing a baby floating down from it. "Some prostitutes don't want to have an abortion, and when they give birth and can't raise a child, they put the child in a basket and put it in the river, and the basket goes downstream along the river, and if they are lucky, they may be picked up and raised by people passing by," Alu explained. ”

"But most of them are unlucky, right?" Dong Junqin asked.

Ah Lu nodded silently, not knowing where this child would drift to, or if he would just go down the river into the ghost market like the two of them.

When Dong Junqin opened his eyes again, he saw a restaurant called Suoling Pavilion, but the people around him were ...... It doesn't look like a human.

Those with blue eyes and black faces, tongues dragged out, a piece missing from their bodies, and a lot of skin and bones.

Dong Junqin stayed for a while, and the first thought in his heart was: Ah Lu's body is really good, but he is much more handsome in comparison.

Ah Lu saw that he came to his senses, and said generously: "Dong Junqin, welcome to the ghost market!" Let's send Cheng Qi to the ghost first, and then take you around to feel the customs of the ghost market...... Forehead......... Ghosts. Remember, don't talk to other ghosts without my consent, but whisper to me if you have something. ”

Dong Junqin understood that this was for the sake of the breath of the living.

They made their way through several lively neighborhoods and into a slightly quieter, darker area. It turns out that the ghost market is not much different from the yang world except that it is darker.

Arishi led him to a dark mansion. There is a stone tablet at the entrance of the mansion, on which is engraved the word "enter".

Ah Lu whispered: "This is the government of the ghost city, after this house, there is a ghost river, and the other side of the river is the real netherworld." Let's go inside. ”

In the palace, the ghosts were crowded, they were wearing similar black robes, and they were floating around with stacks of scrolls.

A few people saw Ah Lu and greeted: "Yo, Xiao Remnant, you're back!"

Dong Junqin wanted to laugh a little.

Alu got someone to ask, "Is Lord Bald here?"

A little ghost showed her the way, and Ah Lu continued to go deeper into the palace.

In a few moments they reached a garden. The garden was full of bright red flowers, and a ghost with a hair on his head was drinking tea among the flowers.

"I'm back!" Seeing him, Ah Lu happily ran over, "Did you cross the river by mistake for the second elder of the Cheng family?"

Bald turned his head, Dong Junqin saw this ghost clearly, there were no eyeballs in the two eye frames, a missing piece of the lips, and no teeth, directly exposing the neck of the back of the head. It seems that he suffered a lot of sins in his life.

Bald was shocked when he heard Aru's voice, and then stood up to watch her float towards him.

Bald said: "Yo, you also brought a little brother?"

Ah Lu pointed at Dong Junqin and said, "Jun is not handsome, wait and take him to Huajie to beg for wine." ”

Dong Junqin was shocked in his heart, he had fallen to this point?

Bald laughed, this laughter sounded very weird because of the leaky wind.

The three ghosts came to the river, and the two old ghosts were sitting there in a daze.

"Bald, I not only settled Cheng Qi this time, but also brought back the soul of his younger brother Cheng Qi. After Ah Lu finished speaking, he summoned Cheng Qi's soul from his body and handed it to the second elder.

The second elder was overjoyed when he saw Cheng Qi. Listening to Ah Lu recount the previous events, the family of three couldn't cry. In fact, Dong Junqin only heard their whining ghost cry, but there were no tears.

Bald complimented Aru on a good job on this errand, so he gave her a black pill-like thing.

The Cheng family's affairs are over, and Bald has no intention of continuing with them, but he wants to leave but is stopped by Alu: "Wait, I still have something to ask you for help!"

Looking at Ah Lu's eyes baldly, Dong Junqin seemed to be familiar. It seems that Mu Jifeng has also looked at him with this kind of eyes.

Alu said: "Can you help me check the two people, they just died." ”

The bald neck stretched out in front of Ah Lu's nose, and said angrily: "No! How many times have you said it! The Book of Life and Death is the most important thing for King Xue, not something we can see if we want to, we have to go through eighteen ......"

Ah Lu interrupted: "I know, it takes eighteen discs, thirty ghost officials agree to draw a charge, and three more record officials, which is a good day, before I can watch it." ”

"You know and ask!" Bald snorted coldly.

Ah Lu looked at him like that, and suddenly his face fell: "Cheng Qi, he has been dead for a long time." ”

Bald said: "So what?"

Ah Lu glared at the bald and said: "He has been dead for so long, and he can't go down to the realm because of the demonic energy, I asked just now, and the petty officials below you have already reported it." It stands to reason that if you pass the ten audits and come to you, you should continue to report to King Xue's mansion, and let King Xue send Yin soldiers to remove the demonic qi and bring the soul back! If the soul is brought back earlier, Cheng Xia's file will be gone, and this family of three can be reincarnated as soon as possible. If only ......"

Ah Lu spoke louder and louder, successfully attracting the attention of the surrounding ghosts, including the three ghosts of the Cheng family. Bald quickly covered her mouth: "You! You want to threaten me again?!"

Dong Junqin remembered that Ah Lu had said that she had made trouble in the ghost market a few times before she became like this, presumably this bald was the unlucky ghost at that time. No wonder he wanted to hide as soon as he saw Ah Lu.

This method has been tried and tested repeatedly, and Ah Lu grabbed the bald and cried and said: "Bald, I am a remnant soul, and it is already difficult to control this body." Checking the information is also to accompany you with half the effort, hello early delivery. As the saying goes, it's good to chop wood and sharpen knives, catch fish and weave nets. Besides, you don't have to look at the book of life and death, you may have news if you inquire about it. ”

Holding his forehead baldly, he said half-loudly: "The name of this life." ”

Ah Lu said with a smile: "Shangguan Hao, he was a Taoist priest of the Azure Realm before his death, and his name was Bai Yuan. And a ......"

Dong Junqin gave her a lip sync.

Alu said: "There is another one who is also in the Azure Realm, and the Dao number is Xuanqing. The original name was Qu Shangqing. ”

Bald thought for a while and said, "Qu Shangqing, don't check." I just met it the other day. The Yuan Spirit is very strong, but there are some gaps in the soul, and it probably hasn't come over yet. ”

When Ah Lu heard this, he looked at Dong Junqin, and asked while observing him, "Then ...... he is?"

"His Yuan Spirit is already in the house, and when the soul returns, he will be able to go to King Xue's Mansion. Bald finger pointed to a long wooden bridge not far away, "This immortal cultivator, when he was alive, he thought about it, and he wouldn't wander for too long when he died." As long as there are no major sins and evils in life, you will soon be able to queue up and wait for reincarnation when you enter King Xue's mansion. I look at that Yuan Ling, maybe he can become an immortal. ”

"That's great!" Ah Lu was overjoyed, raised his eyebrows at Dong Junqin, and then thought of Bai Yuan Immortal: "What about the other one?"

Bald shook his head: "There are so many ghosts every day, where do I remember clearly." I didn't die in the past two days, I certainly don't remember. Hey, stop it! Don't scream! I'll just ask for you. Come back in an hour. ”

Ah Lu saluted respectfully and pulled Dong Junqin out of the mansion.
