Chapter 138 Ghost City’s Beautiful Shadow

In the area controlled by the ghost monk, Xiao Yuhan moved carefully. She completely transformed into the appearance of a ghost monk. Xiao Xuan used the Tiangang energy to disguise the ghost energy. As long as there was no fighting, she looked completely invulnerable. .

From the memories of several ghost monks, Xiao Yuhan compiled general information about this ghost market.

Doudi Ghost Market is located in a remote valley in Bajun, Sichuan Province. It is a place for ghost monks to communicate and trade. It also sells some magic weapons and elixirs used by other monks, but the quantity is relatively limited. The ghost market is only open for transactions for seven days every month. During these seven days, their transaction information and purchased items will not be disturbed by any outside world. Foreign monks who come to the ghost market mainly use these seven days to sell stolen goods, and for these stolen goods , the ghost market doesn't care about their origin at all, but the receiving price will be relatively low.

In order to ensure its own safety and the convenience of transactions, the scale of the ghost market is quite large, including traders, monks, ghost forces and other participants from all corners of Shu. Located in a valley, the overall atmosphere of the ghost market is strong. Most of the dark spaces in the shops are only illuminated by gourd lights, creating a depressing atmosphere.

There are many kinds of vendors in the ghost market. In addition to selling magic weapons and talismans specially used by ghost monks, they also trade other magic weapons, spiritual stones, herbs, elixirs, puppets, etc. In particular, some rare and exquisite magic weapons and puppet-making techniques are circulated among them, attracting many monks to purchase them. The stalls of various vendors are dotted throughout the market, forming a mysterious shopping paradise. Of course, in such a market, many traders also use various means to collude secretly to seek more benefits for themselves and their accomplices.

The forces in the ghost market are complex, and forces from all sides are constantly fighting. It is mainly divided into ghost temples that guard the safety of the ghost market, ghost gate guards responsible for market order, and some casual cultivators seeking protection. The Ghost Temple is the dominant force in the Ghost Market, and their judges enjoy great authority in the market. However, in recent years, for some unknown reason, the leader of the ghost gate guards often disrupts the market order and challenges the authority of the ghost temple in various ways.

As soon as she entered the Doudi Ghost Market, Xiao Yuhan felt the strong Yin Qi and death energy here. She felt the vague and sinister eyes of the monks around her scanning her, looking like they were always ready to attack.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yuhan felt a little nervous. In order to ease her mood, she asked Xiao Xuan: "Sister Xuan, why do you think this place is called the 'Double Ghost Market'?"

Xiao Xuan naturally knew Xiao Yuhan's little thoughts, so she replied: "The name Doudi Ghost Market should be derived from its unique market atmosphere and the power of the surrounding ghost monks.

First of all, the word "Dou Di" here should mean "all-inclusive", which means that the ghost market has a wide variety of goods. No matter what kind of goods it is, everything is available here, and it also contains many rare treasures. At the same time, ‘getting the bottom’ also implies that this market is very tolerant of the origins and prices of traded treasures, making it easy for buyers and sellers to reach deals and each get what they need.

Secondly, these ghost monks enjoy the competitive advantage of selling unique goods in the market, while also maintaining and policing the market. Buyers and sellers in the market will feel the mysterious atmosphere brought by the ghost monks, which makes the whole market look even weirder. However, it can attract those monks who have been wandering on the edge of life and death all year round to come and trade, so it is called the "ghost market".

In view of the above reasons, this small town market may have been called the "Ghost Market" by the monks who came to trade, expressing its unique market style and mysterious atmosphere, and also entrusting the monks to try to get opportunities here. a thought. "

The time when Xiao Yuhan entered the ghost market happened to be on the trading day. In the ghost market, you can trade spiritual stones or barter. She visited various shops in the market and discussed with Xiao Xuan how to purchase some things needed for cultivation. Elixir and magic weapon.

Xiao Yuhan was visiting the ghost market. Since most of them were needed by ghost monks, she basically had no use for them. After walking around for a while, she saw a vendor selling some special crystal stones and magic weapons that she had never seen before. When the vendor saw Xiao Yuhan approaching, he immediately greeted him warmly: "Fellow Taoist, I have some rare crystals and magic weapons, which are guaranteed to be of high quality and low price!"

Xiao Yuhan deliberately asked in a hoarse voice: "What effect do these crystals of yours have?"

The vendor said with a proud expression: "Fellow Taoist, these crystals of mine are extremely good products. They can help monks break through bottlenecks and improve their cultivation!"

Xiao Yuhan looked at the crystal stones doubtfully and felt something was wrong, so she asked Xiao Xuan for her opinion.

Xiao Xuan snorted coldly and said: "The craftsmanship of those crystal stones is similar to that of war stones. They are for use by mortals without cultivation. It's just that the makers made them more beautiful."

Xiao Yuhan immediately lost interest after hearing this. She said coldly to the vendor: "Huh, these crystals of yours look just average to me. Do you have anything else?"

The vendor looked a little dissatisfied, but still forced a smile and said: "Fellow Taoist, the goods here are genuine. If you don't believe it, we can find an authoritative person to appraise it!"

Xiao Yuhan sneered and turned around and left. It was useless to talk more. As a ghost monk, she had no need to be polite to these profiteers in the ghost market.

Not long after she left, a mysterious monk suddenly took the initiative to chat with her: "Fellow Taoist, I see you are unfamiliar. It looks like it is your first time in the ghost market.

Most of these stalls are doing deceptive business. I know a great shopping place. Do you want me to take fellow Taoists there? "

Xiao Yuhan looked at this person and raised her eyebrows. She knew this person from the memory of those ghost monks. There was a force behind this person. Whether it was deceiving casual cultivators or cheating on others, he would do anything. There was no lower limit and he would do all kinds of evil.

She waved her hand naturally and said, "I won't bother to introduce you to you, fellow Taoist." After saying that, she quickly left the mysterious monk.

The man scratched his head angrily, but without getting angry, he quickly found the next target and began to observe it seriously.

According to the memories of the ghost monks, Xiao Yuhan wandered around the ghost market for a long time, looking for clues to leave the ghost's sphere of influence. When she passed by a restaurant, she accidentally saw a drunken ghost monk pestering a plainly dressed girl. The monk was very drunk and looked very bad-tempered.

The ghostly monk's smell of alcohol and yin energy mixed together, coupled with his ferocious face, made people shiver all over when they saw him. He grabbed the girl's arm and shouted loudly: "You stinky girl, how dare you bump into me? Are you tired of living?"

The girl was petite and seemed fragile, but Xiao Yuhan knew in her heart that a woman who could show her face in the ghost market, even a child, could not take it lightly. She silently hid in the crowd watching the excitement.

The girl was grabbed by the ghost monk who was a head taller than her, but she did not appear panicked. She said to the man calmly: "I was not careful. I want to apologize to you." Then she bowed slightly to signal.

However, the ghost monk didn't appreciate it at all and raised his hand to slap the girl. Xiao Yuhan felt that she seemed to be guided by an emotion, and she couldn't help but use her skills to stop the drunkard.

"Be careful!" Xiao Xuan suddenly warned.
