Chapter 311
311 You’re allowed to extract Yang Qi, but you’re not allowed to kiss
“The heavens are dry, be careful of the flickering candle.”
On the old city wall, a bang was heard.
Thick ink-like darkness engulfed the surroundings, and only a pale white Lantern hung above the city gate tower, illuminating a small circle of light that was a few Zhang in radius.
A hunched old lady walked into the city gate in a black robe, holding a basket covered with black cloth.
When they reached the city gate, a baby’s cry suddenly came from the basket. waa …
The shrill cry was very ear-piercing.
“Aiyo, baby Yaya is awake.” The old woman said in a coaxing tone,”Don’t cry, don’t cry. If you cry again, grandma will give it to you.”
The crying suddenly stopped.
He didn’t know if she had used some other means, or if the child had understood the polar reversal between ” eat grandma ” and ” eat grandma ”
At the city gate sat a skinny old man with a bang. When the old woman passed by him, she nodded, and the skinny old man nodded in response.
After a while.
In the darkness ahead, another thin figure walked over. When he passed by the old man, he stopped and asked, ” “Taigong, I want to get some infant spirit blood. Is it available in today’s fair?”
It was the feminine voice of a man. As he spoke, a bright red tongue hung down from the shadow of his hood, swinging back and forth.
“The old cat lady just brought one in. I don’t know if she has set up a stall. You can go and take a look.” The old man who was called Taigong nodded.
“Thank you, Taigong.”
The long-tongued man gave his thanks and walked into the dark old city.
Three more people walked out of the darkness.
These three people were also wearing the standard black robes of the ghost market. The hood covered their faces, and it was impossible to see their faces and body shapes.
However, one could still see that the person in the lead was extremely handsome.
The old man looked at the three people and raised his eyebrows.
Li Chu came here after he escaped from ” death’s door “. When he saw the old man sitting at the city gate, his eyes paused for a moment, but he didn’t look at him for long.
He was about to walk over.
“Stop,” the old man suddenly called out.
The three of them stopped and Li Chu turned around.
“What for?” the old man asked.
“I’m buying something.” Li Chu replied.
“What are you buying?” The old man asked again,
“Medicine,” Li Chu replied.
“What medicine did you buy?” The old man asked again.
“Life-saving medicine.” Li Chu replied.
The old man squinted his eyes, his gaze like a knife as he scanned the three of them. After a moment, he said, ” “After entering, head east. There’s a little girl who’s selling life-saving medicine.”
“Many thanks.”
thank you, ” Li Chu said and turned to leave.
The old man looked at their backs and thought for a moment. Suddenly, he stood up and walked into the darkness.
The darkness was like the ocean. The moment the old man entered it, he was like a fish, and his figure instantly swam far away.
There seemed to be two lanterns hanging high in front of him. When he got closer, he realized that they were actually a pair of eyes.
A pair of mystical eyes that could see through the heaven underworld.
Only a body as large as a mountain could have such a large pair of eyes.
“Lord Tong you.” When the old man saw the eyes, he immediately landed on the ground respectfully. I just saw three people entering the market. There seemed to be something wrong with them, huhu.
“Oh?”
The terrifying existence in the darkness only let out a soft ‘Oh’, and there seemed to be huge waves rolling around.
“But I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it.”
but … the old man hesitated, ” I’ve been guarding the ghost market for more than a hundred years. I can tell the wrongness of this kind of person with one look.
“There!” “You’re the one who’s not right,” Lord Tong you interrupted.
“Ah, this Tao Wu!” The old man was stunned.
“In short, don’t provoke them.”
Lord Tong you’s voice seemed to contain anger.
The old man didn’t dare to argue anymore and obediently turned to leave.
Ethereal opening was a descendant of the primordial era.
Its ancestor was once an existence that could be called a divine beast. It had a powerful innate divine ability, which was “understanding ghosts and gods,” and could see through many things that ordinary people could not.
It was precisely because of this innate ability that this ethereal opening beast was chosen to be The Guardian of this ghost market.
With it around, no one with ill intentions could sneak into this ghost market.
After the old man left, he couldn’t help but feel vexed at his own foolishness when he actually doubted Lord Tong you’s ability to see through ghosts and gods.
……
After Li Chu and the rest entered the city gate tower of the ghost market, they followed the old man’s directions and headed east.
On both sides of the road, there were many stalls laid out with ancient beast skins. They were at least five to six feet away from each other.
The people behind the stalls were all dressed in black robes, and their appearances could not be seen clearly. Other than some of them who had really strange shapes, as long as they were in human form, they all looked the same.
There weren’t many kasayas like Li Chu, who could still tell that he was handsome even with his face covered.
Although there were many stalls and many customers, the atmosphere here was still cold and lonely. A thin mist filled the air, and darkness was the background of everything. Everyone leaned close and whispered to each other, almost without a sound.
As for the items displayed in the stalls, they were even stranger.
The broken limbs, eyeballs, tongues, and internal organs of all kinds of creatures were just ordinary. There were also some strange things that could be used for a meal with the water of the netherworld, the rice in front of the grave, and the ashes of the Almighty.
There were also fish kowtowing on the ground, dead monkeys covered in talismans, and the most eye-catching thing was a lonely head on the ground, its eyes rolling around and calling for help.
I wonder who would buy such a thing.
As for talismans, magic tools, and strange items, there were countless of them, but the three of them didn’t recognize most of them.
They weren’t very curious about it. They just wanted to find the medicine that tied Wang longqi’s father up as soon as possible.
He did not stop and soon found a stall.
There were a few medicinal herbs on the stall, but they were all pasted with yellow paper, on which were written the eight characters of the birthday.
It was exactly the same as the vital medicine described by the spider demon.
It should be here.
They looked at the stall owner, slightly confused.
That old man called her a little girl?
The person sitting at the back of the stall, looking at the degree of the bulge of her body, could be seen to be a woman with a curly beard and even a good figure. However, it had a huge fish head on its head. It was covered with green scales and protruding fins that even the hood could not cover.
A mermaid with a fish head and a human body?
The murloc turned its head when it saw someone coming.
Of course, it was not disrespectful, but because the eyes of the fish head were on the side.
“What do you want?” It asked.
From the voice, it really was a woman’s voice.
Wang longqi bent down and carefully looked at the four herbs on the stall. He glanced at the birth characters and pointed at one of them. He said excitedly, ” “These eight characters are my father’s!”
No wonder he was so excited.
After a long journey, he finally found a result. As long as he could get his hands on this medicine, he could at least temporarily keep his father’s life.
As for how to break the curse, that would be a problem later on.
“I want all of them,” Li Chu said as he looked at the four life herbs.
“Oh?” The merman sized them up. I got these vital herbs from the medicine lady. They’re all ripe and very expensive.
“State your price.” Li Chu said indifferently.
Since they were already ripe, it meant that each of them was a human life, and they could not fall into the evil’s hands.
Therefore, his tone was very determined.
I want the Pixiu! the merman’s big eyes rolled around. four profound Yin sunflower water-life spirits.
“No,” Li Chu answered without hesitation.
No matter what the profound Yin sunflower water life was, it was impossible for it to be traded with its Yin soul.
Since it was a bartering market, it was normal that they couldn’t get what they needed at the moment. Therefore, there must be more than one demand for the stall.
When the murloc heard him say no, it changed its words. then forty beautiful faces. They must be freshly peeled within seven days.
Li Chu frowned slightly. no, I didn’t.
The murloc seemed to be a little displeased.
then a dragon’s heart, ” it said. it has to be at least the second generation of the true dragon.
This Yingluo
There was one in deyun temple, and it was a real Dragon.
It’s just a little too small and chubby.
Of course, he couldn’t give it to it.
At the end of the day, what it said wasn’t something that could be obtained through formal means. They couldn’t do that kind of business.
“No,” Li Chu shook his head.
The murloc’s large eyes showed clear impatience.
At first, I thought you were rich when I heard your tone, but you didn’t have this and that. You can’t be thinking of getting it for free, right?
Are you going to give me a ‘must’ next time?
It said unhappily,”what are you doing at the ghost market if you don’t have anything?” The last one, I want the Yang Qi of living people! If there’s nothing else, you don’t have to ask anymore.”
Li Chu frowned.
In fact, this was his first time in the ghost market, and the situation was unclear. He didn’t want to cause trouble, so he had planned a total of twenty taels of silver for this operation.
If the transaction could be completed within this limit, everyone would be happy.
Like now, the other party didn’t want the silver at all, and the deal couldn’t be negotiated, so he could only use some impolite means.
“Eh.”
Wang longqi, who was standing beside him, suddenly grabbed his shoulder.
Wang longqi turned around and said in a low voice, ” “Li Chu, don’t rush. It’s our first time here, so everything is unclear. We should try to talk as much as possible, or else we’ll just sigh.”
He looked like he was enduring humiliation, as if he was about to make a great sacrifice.
After saying that.
Wang longqi looked at the hideous fish head with a woman’s body and gritted his teeth, ” “I can give you Yang Qi!”
“But I have a request, Yingluo.”
“When you take the Yang Qi, you have to wear a mask, hehe”
“And Yingluo …”
“No kissing.”
