Record of Yin and Yang

There are still many markers in Jingling County that have not been cleaned up. After the Zhang family incident, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi have almost rested. After leaving the town, they continued to clean up the grievances along the previously designated route.

When they clean up the resentment, they often encounter many wild ghosts. If there is a need, Gu Jiu and the others will help ask the ghost to open the ghost door. If they don't want to reincarnate, Gu Jiu and the others will not force it.

That night, the two learned from a wild ghost who had been dead for several years and was regarded as an old ghost that a ghost market would appear in a certain place tomorrow night.

The ghost market, in Yangjian, is a market that some people use to sell shady stalls, while in the underworld, it is just like the literal meaning, the stalls set up by ghosts, and those who enter and exit them are ghosts and not humans.

This kind of ghost market is organized spontaneously by wild ghosts, organized by the local city gods, and organized by the local government. The scale is different. In order, the greater the background of the sponsor, the larger the scale.And what the old ghost said was organized by the local city god. It is considered a government-run event, and the scale is not bad.

The ghost market is a place where ghosts move, and living people should generally be prevented from entering or leaving.As long as it is not spontaneously organized by wild ghosts, even if some unlucky person with weak yang energy strays into it by mistake, there is generally no danger of death, but it may be frightened, and if it is contaminated with yin energy, it will cause a serious illness.

Gu Jiuchang is so old, he only participated in two ghost markets with Shao Yi, and they were all small markets spontaneously organized by wild ghosts to sell their funeral objects or things burned by their families.Some old ghosts still have some good things in their hands, and they can be refined into magic weapons in the hands of Taoists like Gu Jiu and the like.Like Gu Jiu's seven-star ring, and Shao Yi's magic weapon to suppress Jin Geng's aura, most of the materials were bought by Fang Beiming from the ghost market.

Now that this ghost market has come across, there is no reason not to go.

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi went to the ghost market to set up a stall. They brought all the food that ghosts like to eat. Paper money for joss sticks is essential. They also bought some paper figurines, clothes and shoes, and even two cars. Paper-made carriages, anyway, I bought some from all the incense shops that sell them, and then burned everything in the way of giving food to the wild ghosts. After taking them out, all the paper-made objects became like living creatures Used the same.

When the evening was approaching, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi put all the prepared things on the two paper horse-drawn carriages, and then woke up all the little paper people that had been ordered before, and let them carry a cart of goods and a dozen or so paper carts. The paper figurine ran ahead in the carriage, while he was holding his younger brother and Shao Yi in his arms and followed behind in the newly bought donkey cart.

The little paper people slept for several days, and when they woke up, they babbled together, scrambling for the reins to play, and ran the carriage out of the enchanting snake shape.

The ghost market was held in an empty and uninhabited field. When it was about to arrive, through the twilight and the unusual fog, Gu Jiu saw some dim lights, so he stopped the donkey cart, tied it to a tree, and walked with Shao Yi go in.

The little paper people slowed down the speed of the carriage and looked curiously at the bustling market that suddenly appeared in front of them.

The entrance of the market was guarded by two city god warriors. Gu Jiu had released the yin energy from his body, enveloped Shao Yi and his younger brother, covered the anger and yang energy on his body, and then walked past the two warriors without changing his expression. , The two wrestlers didn't notice something was wrong, their eyes flicked over those paper figurines, thinking that this was someone's rich young ghost who brought his servants out to play, although the servants were a little smaller.

To set up a stall in the ghost market, you need to pay a stall fee. Gu Jiu took out a few yin money and exchanged for a good stall.The market is a very long street, the upper part sells food, and the lower part sells food. Gu Jiu's stall is just at the junction of the two, the busiest place in the middle.

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi couldn't be more proficient at setting up a stall. They quickly organized the things, and then explained to the little paper people, leaving them to watch the stall. He, Shao Yi and the younger brother, just Wandered around.

"Yah!" The little paper people looked at the backs of the two leaving, and shouted reluctantly.

Gu Jiu turned her head and waved her hands, "Be good and wait, the uncles will come back later, so you can play instead."

It was just getting dark at this time, but there were already many ghosts in the market, and the aroma of food was wafting in the street, which smelled very greedy. Gu Jiu couldn't help but take a few glances.But they are all sold to ghosts to eat, Gu Jiu and the others dare not stick to them, even the little paper people will get sick and shorten their lives if they eat them.

Walking around in the market, there are ghosts who look rich in rich clothes, ghosts in ordinary clothes, and ghosts in a rather embarrassing situation.Some have a golden light of merit, and some have a vicious aura, both of which are relatively rare, and the most are purely yin.

There are too many ghosts, and many of them fight for territory and have grievances, but in the street market hosted by the City God, all the ghosts dare not make trouble. Pass.

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi came to a stall. The stall owner was a bit evil, his complexion was the same pale as all the ghosts, but the clothes he was wearing were the style of the previous dynasty, and he had been dead for less than a hundred years.

At this time, the former ghost was yelling at the top of his voice: "Come, come, look at and choose at will. The good things just brought out from the tomb are full of yin. Buy them back, whether they are for decorations, ornaments or jewelry." , are the first choice for health maintenance, and each Yinbi is only [-]. [-], you can’t buy it at a loss, you can’t be fooled, and you will pay ten if you fake it.”

After yelling at the ghost, he saw two young ghosts parked in front of the stall. He focused his eyes on the younger one, and saw that he was majestic, with wisps of evil spirit bursting out from time to time, and he was holding a pet in his arms. Ghost, thinking that this is a big fortune, he immediately laughed brightly, "What does this young man want to buy? Look, here are all good things I just brought out of the tomb."

Gu Jiu's eyesight is not as good as Shao Yi's. The two of them squatted down and looked at the things on the stall for a while, and saw Shao Yi shaking his head: "It's a little less old."

Tomb objects all have yin energy, and if used by living people, they will often bring bad luck. They are used to refine magic weapons, mainly to restrain yin objects, so there will be no such problem.As with all antique items, the more complete the material and age of the artifact, the more valuable it will be.The things here are less than a hundred years old, and they are still not good enough to make utensils.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the former court ghost hurriedly stopped them, "Don't be so anxious, my lords, isn't my stall too small to display the things I brought, you two wait a moment, I will bring a few more things for you." Take a look."

As he said that, Qianchaogui hurriedly pulled out a big black bag from behind, and took out a few things from it and placed them in front of the two of them.

Shao Yi frowned, picked up a seal inside and looked at it, felt a trace of evil spirit leaking from the seal, and whispered to Gu Jiu: "This is the sealed Qingxuan seal."

Gu Jiu slightly opened his eyes, the green seal can suppress houses, drive away evil spirits, and kill evil spirits, and its power is enormous.

Good stuff.

Didn't the ghost of the previous dynasty hear what Shao Yi said? He saw Shao Yi staring at the seal, and said with an exaggerated expression: "This thing in your hand was left to me by my ancestors. It's almost a thousand years old. You see With this evil spirit, ghosts with little ability dare not approach at all. Throwing it out can smash the ghost into fly ash and annihilate it. With it, you will never be afraid of other ghosts watching you drooling when you walk outside in the future. It is a must-have self-defense product for home travel ah!"

Gu Jiu said with a half-smile, "It sounds like it's true, tell me, which Taoist priest's grave did you dig?"

In addition to the Qingxuan seal, there are two other things that the ghost of the former dynasty took out that are also magic weapons: Shidao and Sanqingling.

Shi Dao, also known as Shaman Dao, is made of sharp iron, like a dharma sword and a kitchen knife. It is made with a handle in the shape of a mountain, which symbolizes the Taoist Sanqing gods, and there is a bell tongue in the middle. The crisp bell sound made by shaking is very harsh to the ghosts and ghosts, and the headache is splitting. , that's it.

These are magic tools used by Taoist people, which can restrain Yin objects.A ghost dared to touch these things, there is no limit to the courage, it should be thankful that these three artifacts have been sealed, otherwise the former ghost would have been annihilated in ashes as he himself said.

The Qianchao ghost didn't expect him to be exposed immediately, and said embarrassingly: "Young master is really well-informed. There was a thunderstorm a while ago, and a tomb in the mountain was torn open by lightning. I was hiding from the thunder nearby that day. I happened to see it, so I went over to have a look, and then I saw these treasures. The owners of their tombs are gone, and since they have seen the light of day, wouldn’t it be a waste to put them away.” He flattered again, “I see these The thing is predestined with the son, and you two like it, why don't you just buy it back."

It is not easy to raise a magic weapon, so it is absolutely necessary to buy it. After all, it is rare. As for the price, you still have to pay it back.

Before the ghost, he wanted to open his mouth to the lion. After it was revealed that this thing was not his, he could only lower the price. After all, he also knew that these were used to exorcise ghosts. Yes, it's useless for him to stay by his side, and he always feels a little scary, so he can only sell it.

In the end, Gu Jiu gave the former ghost a stack of banknotes, and a bag of incense plaster according to the former ghost’s needs—ghosts with backgrounds can eat incense ash and candles, and poor ghosts with no background can only eat mud , Qianchao Gui can get along well in the surrounding area, he is the boss of ghosts, he exchanged some cheap incense plaster and went back to win over the younger ghosts under his command.

When leaving the stall, Gu Jiu said to Qian Chaogui, "You will thank us."

These magical artifacts were sealed before, but now that the evil spirit is leaking, it should have been broken by the lightning power of that thunder.Now the seal is already crumbling, and the opening will only get bigger and bigger. By then, all the evil energy will leak out, and the former ghost will not be able to survive.

They only need to do a little unseal ritual to take the few magic tools back, and the original power of these magic tools will be fully revealed.

The two continued to shop around, and found a few more copper coins with a history of hundreds of years. After adding a few more coins, they can make a Seven Star Sword.

After seeing that it was about the same time, they returned to the stall.

There were a lot less incense candles and clothes on the stall, and there were only three paper figurines left, and one less carriage.

The little paper people guarded the stall conscientiously, and there was already a large pile of banknotes around them. Several little paper people in floral clothes were counting the banknotes together. After counting a stack, they were tied up with the rope left by Gu Jiu and stacked on top of the pile. Together.

There are so many bad money, some poor ghosts passing by are greedy, but they dare not grab it. There are city god warriors patrolling here, and ghosts who dare to make trouble will be arrested.

On the right side of Gu Jiu's stall, there is a shop selling snacks. The smell is tantalizing. The little paper people who had been busy all night saw that Gu Jiu and Shao Yi had returned, looked at them eagerly, and shook their trousers. , pointing at the food stand, "Yeah?"

Gu Jiudao: "That you can't eat."

When the little paper people were collectively disappointed, Gu Jiu took out some steamed buns as if by magic, "But you can eat this."

Provide steamed buns to the little paper people, and let them play when they are full.

A group of small paper figurines babbled and ran away through the gap between the ghosts' legs holding hands. Gu Jiu and Shao Yi sat side by side and put away the money.They don't need these, they can give them to the master and the two patriarchs.

The two of them had just finished packing their things, when they suddenly heard a noise coming from the front, Gu Jiu looked curiously.

A ghost shouted: "Is there a ghost doctor? There is a pregnant ghost here who is about to give birth!"
