The strange case of the demon book
Chapter 50: A Businessman Walking the Yin and Yang Paths
? After Zhang Jue paid the bill for the drink to the long-tongued ghost, he took Huo Wencai to the ghost market.This ghost market was dimly lit, full of strange lights, there were all kinds of ghosts, and there were all kinds of things for sale that Huo Wencai had never seen before. Huo Wencai was very excited, and he held Zhang Jue's hand tightly and walked around the ghost market.Some of the ghost merchants and wandering ghosts in this ghost market are former Qing people with braids, some are from the Ming Dynasty, and some are from the Song Dynasty?????? It is true that there are ghosts who have been dead for many years, and from them The way they died before they were born can be seen from the appearance of their deaths, so it still gives Huo Wen a sense of horror visually.
"Hey, Zhang Jue. Do you think we will meet Yuan Xi here?" Thinking of Yuan Xi's way of dying, Huo Wen was startled.
"No, Yuan Xi's soul has already fed those ghost babies." Zhang Jue said, Huo Wencai sighed in his heart.
After death, there is not even a soul.
The two walked around the ghost market, and Zhang Jue introduced the ghost market to Huo Wencai in detail.This ghost market can only be opened on the annual Ghost Festival. On this day, many ghosts will gather together to open the market, which is why it is so lively.This ghost market sometimes allows people from the world to wander in by mistake. If you are lucky, you can return to the world. If you are unlucky, you may wander in the ghost market and never return.This is why there are always people missing during the Ghost Festival every year.
But there is one kind of people who are out of the list - businessmen who walk in both ways.
This kind of businessman is generally inherited from the family and is never passed on to the outside world.They sell things from the human world to the ghost market, and then get the goods in the ghost market and sell them to those in need in the human world.It's just that this kind of person hides very deeply, and you can't tell whether he is a human or a ghost at all.Moreover, after dealing with the people in the ghost market deeply, he also has a ghost aura on his body, so it is difficult to recognize that this person is a businessman who walks in both ways.
Walking with Zhang Jue, suddenly there was a shrill scream from under his feet. Huo Wencai lowered his head and lifted his feet, and a black thing came out from under his feet. The round black thing also flew over.I don't know what the hell it was, but Huo Wen was taken aback.Huo Wencai and Zhang Jue continued to look at it. This ghost market is huge and there seems to be no end in sight.
"Zhang Jue, do you think these ghosts won't know about people coming here?" Huo Wencai asked.
"You can't notice it if you don't do it deliberately. The human smell will become very weak when mixed with the endless group of ghosts, so some people will get lost here. But be careful not to be in the ghost There is blood in the city, and the smell of human blood cannot be covered up. Once the blood is spilled, it will be torn to pieces. You and I are stained with that ghost's blood, so our human smell is covered up." Zhang Jue Stretching out his hand to his heart, there was no heartbeat, and he had long since lost the human smell.
It turned out to be the case.
When Huo Wencai saw that the two people who were looking for him and Zhang Jue were still looking for them in the ghost city, Huo Wencai acted cleverly.If these two people make trouble for themselves, then they will pay back twice as much.
"Zhang Jue, give me some money. I'll go over there and have a look. You go ahead and wait for me to come back later." Huo Wencai said.
"Okay." Zhang Jue said, and gave Huo Wencai a dozen of paper money. He hadn't been to the ghost market for a long time, and he really planned to come to the ghost market tonight.
Huo Wencai took the paper money given by Zhang Jue and blew a whistle in a good mood. He watched the two bastards still looking for him and Zhang Jue.He bought more than a dozen oil-paper umbrellas with the paper money, and then bumped into the two men and women who were chasing Zhang Jue——
"Ouch! Why did you hit me!" Huo Wencai yelled loudly, and the oiled paper umbrella in his hand fell to the ground.
"Get out of the way!" The woman frowned and warned Huo Wencai.
"Hey! You are being unreasonable. Do you want to fight, come on. Come on. I was afraid you would fail!" Huo Wencai took the oil-paper umbrella and pulled it over.
This kind of collision is often staged in the ghost market, so it didn't attract everyone's attention.Huo Wencai pulled at them with all his strength, and they couldn't dodge at all in the crowded market.
"Dang!" With a thump, a mahogany sword blocked Huo Wencai's oil-paper umbrella, and Huo Wencai fell to the ground trembling and retreating in fright, shouting in fear: "Taoist priest! A Taoist priest has sneaked in!"
Huo Wencai's angry cry made the whole market quiet down, and he focused his attention on the three of them. When the group of ghosts saw the mahogany sword in the woman's hand, everyone exploded!
"It's a Taoist priest! Tear up a Taoist priest!"
"A Taoist priest has sneaked in??????"
There was chaos for a while, and the ghosts in the ghost market finally showed their ferocious fangs and surrounded the man and woman.They ghosts hate the Taoist priests the most. How could these two Taoist priests have the audacity to sneak into the ghost city and let them go easily.Huo Wencai took advantage of the confusion and withdrew from the ghost group to find Zhang Jue.After those ghosts surrounded the two people, in order to escape, the mahogany swords in their hands finally stimulated all the ghosts in the market after killing one ghost, and the ghost market immediately fought with the two people.
After Huo Wencai caused such a big incident, he went to the back to find Zhang Jue.Zhang Jue was inquiring about news with an old beggar, and in front of him was a tattered bowl with a piece of paper money in it.After Huo Wencai's arrival, Zhang Jue had already finished asking what he should have asked, and Huo Wencai made too much noise, Zhang Jue didn't even want to know.
Zhang Jue shook his head with a smile, Huo Wencai, Huo Wencai.
"Zhang Jue, where are we going?" After arriving in this ghost market, he no longer knew the time in the human world.
"Go to the ghost market merchant who walks both yin and yang." Zhang Jue said.
"Okay, I also want to see who is so powerful." Only then did Huo Wen become interested in this kind of businessman.
So the two continued to wander in the ghost market looking for the ghost market merchant they were looking for.
Huo Wencai looked ahead, as if the lights were brightly lit and there was no end in sight.
"This ghost market is really long, it seems like it can't reach the end." Huo Wencai sighed.
"The road to the ghost city is not limited to Guangzhou City. If there is an opportunity in other cities, they will also open the door of the ghost city and break in." Zhang Jue said.
Guangzhou City, Shanghai Beach, Beijing City, Tianjin City and other cities or places, if there is a certain opportunity, the gate of the ghost city will be opened, and people in the present world will accidentally break into this ghost city.If you get lost in it, you will never return to the real world.
It's probably not just them who entered the ghost market.
Huo Wencai said in surprise: "According to what you said, if we return to the real world, won't we go to other places if we are not careful?"
"It's possible, unless it's deliberate. Otherwise, the chances are very small. Some people will use the convenience of the ghost market to cross the city. Zhang Daochang once traveled from Beiping to Guangzhou city with the help of the ghost market." Zhang Jue said.
"Tell me, will we be in Shanghai when we leave the ghost market?" Huo Wen said playfully.
"With me here, no." Zhang Jue smiled and wiped out Huo Wencai's thoughts.
Although Huo Wencai wanted to do this for a while, he just thought about Zhang Jue, Wei Zong and Ma Wenrui who were beside him.
For Huo Wencai, he really wanted to see Shanghai Bund, but now he prefers this rough and gentle place in Guangzhou City, which is of the highest quality.
"Found it." Zhang Jue said.
Huo Wencai followed Zhang Jue to look at him, he was an ordinary-looking shopkeeper with goods on his body.When seeing Zhang Jue, he just greeted like other ghost market ghosts: "What do you want?"
"Let me inquire about some news." Zhang Jue said.The ghost merchant who walks both ways of yin and yang rolled his eyes as if trying to deny his identity.Zhang Jue said to him: "I want to inquire about the Zhang family in Beijing, and the person who sneaked into the Zhang family was discovered."
After hearing Zhang Jue's words, the ghost merchant said, "Let's go over there and talk."
"it is good."
When the three of them got to one side, the ghost merchant put down the two loads of goods.The three of them just sat on the ground and talked.
The ghost merchant said: "The family surnamed Zhang in Beijing is getting more and more arrogant. They dare to make trouble in the ghost city. It's really desperate. It's really not as good as the previous generation."
Zhang Jue continued his words: "I want to know the latest news about the Zhang family."
"If you want news, what do you want to pay for it." In business talk business, even those who do business on the Yin and Yang Dao should follow their own rules.
Zhang Jue gave a mahogany talisman engraved with tedious and complicated procedures to the ghost merchant. When the ghost merchant saw the mahogany talisman, his eyes lit up, and he took it: "Good stuff! I'm going to put this thing away!"
After getting paid, the ghost merchant finally said: "The Zhang family in Beijing has been fighting for rights since their sick and troubled direct descendant Young Master Zhang was killed by them. Didn't Young Master Zhang borrow the forbidden money after being crucified?" Did Shu run away? They have been sending people to chase and kill them all the way, from south to north, hehe, this is such a big hatred, I really don’t know what’s going on with these aristocratic families, even their own blood relatives are able to kill them. Now someone is watching in Guangzhou The gossip array set up by Young Master Zhang spread this matter to the Zhang family in Beijing. This family is really ruthless this time. Unless Young Master Zhang hides in Europe, this time Young Master Zhang may be doomed."
After Huo Wencai heard the ghost merchant's words, his heart skipped a beat. This young master couldn't be talking about Zhang Jue, could he?
Zhang Jue's eyes were gloomy, and he continued to ask: "One more piece of news. Does the Japanese puppet master Ito Muji know?"
After hearing the name of this person, the ghost merchant's face looked as if he had swallowed a fly. He said, "I know, this person was wandering around in Shanghai before, but I don't know where he went after that."
"Tell me what you know."
"Ito Musi is a lunatic. When he was in the beach, he almost turned the dancing girls of Paramount into his puppets. Those dancing girls were almost destroyed by him. If it weren't for the people in the patrol room to find someone to fight him Stayed in Shanghai. I just don’t know where he went. There was a piece of news about him, but I don’t know if it’s true or not. I heard that he was related to the Japanese royal family. No one knows if his identity is true or not. Tell me, where did this person go to harm others?????"
"Hey, Zhang Jue. Do you think we will meet Yuan Xi here?" Thinking of Yuan Xi's way of dying, Huo Wen was startled.
"No, Yuan Xi's soul has already fed those ghost babies." Zhang Jue said, Huo Wencai sighed in his heart.
After death, there is not even a soul.
