Chapter 459 Meeting an old friend by chance

Jumping down without hesitation, Li Qi had already made plans.

First, see if anyone sells anything in a place like this.

This is already a deep ocean zone. The people who take risks and trade here are basically adventurers seeking money, and many of them come here for the remains of the Dragon Lord.

Purchase some ingredients from them and complete the commission for cooking the sea pot. It doesn't matter if you can't buy them all. The scientific research ship will continue to move forward, and you will definitely be able to buy them all.

Anyway, Bohai Guo has given all the payment to Li Qi, and there is still a lot of surplus, so there is no need to worry about running out of money.

Secondly, prepare the sacrifices and go to worship Shen Tu and Yu Lei in person, thanking each other's spirit for helping you.

Again, look for any special souvenirs in Donghai, buy some, carve them into hairpins, give them to rabbits, and bring some specialties to other friends.

Finally, take a stroll around Dushuo Mountain, and then remember it in your mind. Turn this into your own heritage. Maybe it will play a big role at some time and become the key to help you open a certain door.

Once the plan was made, all that was left was action, so Li Qi was among the first to jump ashore. There was nothing to fear about Dushuo Mountain or the Gate of Ten Thousand Ghosts.

People have already said that the treasure ship will protect everyone. Li Qi can now see that there is an invisible layer of energy covering his body. Ghosts cannot get close to him and Yin energy cannot disturb him. He is very safe.

This is an invincible pass. It is so useful when you go out with a fifth-grade treasure ship. If you come by yourself, you will probably be eaten by ghosts outside.

It's just...a bit of a coincidence.

The fifth-grade treasure ship is not that simple, but after getting in touch with it, boarding the ship seemed to be a natural thing, and I was naturally invited by Li Dao.

The same goes for the knowledge of rational and spiritual ways, as well as the Shenyi Army related to Dragon Soul.

It would be impossible without a driving force behind this.

Li Qi's current guess is that the pusher should be a real dragon. After all, this was his original idea. After he comes to the East China Sea, the real dragon will definitely test him and drop bait on him.

Now that you have the bait, you can just eat it with peace of mind. You don’t need to do anything with the rest. At most, you can give Donghai some hints. After that, you can just sit back and wait for Donghai to intervene in the journey of the sun and the moon.

With the East China Sea disrupting the situation, it will be easier to break the situation and let the vitality of Luofu Mountain emerge from it.

Li Qi was mediating. He felt that he could become a bridge between Luofu Mountain and Wushen Mountain. After Luofu Mountain recovered, he could make Luofu Mountain fall towards Wushen Mountain.

Many times, what is missing between cooperation and division is just a little bit of trust.

Li Qi believed that as a Zhuren, he could become the fulcrum of this trust, allowing Luofu Mountain to hand over the opportunity to Wushen Mountain, and completely exchange for life and inheritance.

But all this requires muddying the waters first.

Therefore, facing the temptation of the real dragon, Li Qidu stepped in without hesitation, in order to finally follow the hook, climb to the fishing pole, and meet the fishing dragon.

but……

The old man of Shenyi Army and his bunch of dragon-slaying teams, Li Qi really didn't expect it for the moment. Could it really be a coincidence? After all, Li Qi felt that such a strong person would not necessarily be plotted by others.

No one can calculate everything. This is what Li Qi has always thought. There will always be various surprises.

Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.

Thinking of this, Li Qi had already walked to a city gate on the shore, but saw markets outside the city gate to the north and south.

There are many ghosts and ghosts moving around inside, some are short ghosts about two feet tall, and some are giants several feet tall. Among them are men, women, old and young, officials, soldiers, monks and Taoists, people coming and going, people in the city buying and selling, donkeys carrying carts, Everything.

It was still dark all around, surrounded by gloom, and the sunlight could not penetrate at all. The only light source was the big peach tree piercing the sky, so the weather was still cool and dark.

Li Qi squinted his eyes and looked at the city, feeling that it was illusory and subtle, as if he could see it, but also seemed invisible.

He turned to look at the market over there, and vaguely saw Buddha statues in two rows along the road. The Buddha statues had their eyes closed, as if they dared not open their eyes to see anything.

An ordinary person would be trembling with fear from such a strange thing at this moment, but Li Qi was not too scared. He knew that he had encountered a 'ghost market'.

Well, you are lucky. Although this kind of thing is weird and inexplicable to ordinary people, it is just right for Li Qi.

Witches themselves are a type of "weird". Generally speaking, witches are an indispensable role in many ghost market stories recorded and narrated by mortals.

Besides, ordinary people would exchange longevity or promises for the ghosts' items, but Li Qi had plenty of things that he could trade with these ghosts.

So he strode towards the ghost market.

Walking into it, there are many ghosts and monsters inside. Some have green faces and fangs, some are covered in sores, some are covered in pus and blood, and some are glowing with phosphorus and fire. They appear everywhere.

However, there are many like Li Qi who look similar to ordinary people, and you can even see a lot of monsters wandering around in their original forms.

The snake demon is circling and walking through, and the fox demon is swaying one step at a time, seducing the ghost behind it.

Li Qi also saw a big shot dressed like a great evil ghost who was accomplished in cultivation, riding in a sedan chair, but there was a coffin in the sedan chair, and eighteen ghost slaves were carrying it next to it. There were pink and white clouds coming from behind. , the wine is in the mist, the jade bowl and the golden pot, the light reflects several cases, very arrogant, swaggering through the market.

Ordinary people would probably be frightened in such a gloomy and weird place, but Li Qi felt more and more strange walking in this ghost market.

It's really interesting. It turns out that the great evil ghost who has achieved great cultivation actually has a coffin inside his sedan chair. Interesting, interesting!

Li Qi looked around and shopped for a quarter of an hour, but saw a ghost shop on the roadside, which seemed to be a pawn shop, with many confused people standing in it.

When he took a closer look, he found that they were all souls that had left their bodies!

Li Qi saw that several demons and ghosts were constantly blowing on these living souls, exhaling Yin Qi to stabilize their souls.

He immediately became interested. Li Qi had read about this situation in a book. It said that demons and ghosts would sneak into dreams and lure people's souls out of their bodies and into the ghost market.

At this time, people are confused and think that they are dreaming, so they will do business with the monsters in the dream, pawning their lifespan or other valuable things in exchange for their help.

Some ask for money, and the ghosts buy them with money. Some ask for children, and the ghosts bribe the ghosts to reincarnate in their homes. There are also various weird and bizarre requirements. As long as the ghosts can satisfy them, he can give birth to them. If you can afford the price, you can make a deal.

Many woke up from their dreams in confusion, and some even didn't know that they had sold their decades of life in exchange for some money.

Li Qi observed the process of those living souls thinking they were in dreams and constantly talking to demons and ghosts, trying to record them.

However, at this time, Li Qi suddenly discovered that those monsters seemed to have seen Li Qi, so they stopped breathing air on these living souls and hurried away.

Li Qi saw the demons running away and calling someone.

But not long after, Li Qi heard a voice: "Isn't it inappropriate for you to disturb others in the ghost market?"

This voice... why does it sound familiar?

When Li Qi was suspicious, he looked back.

Upon seeing it, he couldn't help laughing.

A person... ah no, a ghost, wearing a majestic official uniform, was staring at him.

This is none other than Li Weng!

When Li Qi was in Lizhou, when he first dealt with the dispute between humans and ghosts, that Li Weng had his grave dug up by the Wang family!

Unexpectedly, after he escaped from the tomb, he actually came to this ghost market, and looking at it like this, he even managed to get an official position? I had just scared the monsters, and they called me to warn me!

When Li Weng saw Li Qi, he frowned at first, and then suddenly seemed to remember something. He suddenly realized something, clapped his hands, changed his previous rigid expression, and shouted in surprise: "Zhu Ren! How could I meet you here?! You're dead!" !”

"Do you think I look dead? I just came to this ghost gate to see what the ghost market looks like. And look at my yang energy, I am alive and well." Li Qi said with a smile, He took the initiative to say hello to Li Weng.

This centuries-old ghost seems to be doing well now, wearing the clothes of a government official, and his cultivation has improved a lot, and he is now considered good among the eighth-grade.

"Zhu Ren, why did you come to this ghost market? We are really destined." Li Weng said with a smile.

"It is indeed fate. I never thought that one day I would meet you again, Li Weng. There is nothing else to say except fate." Li Qiye smiled, looking a little surprised.

I'm really surprised. This is the location of the Ghost Gate in the East China Sea. It's really nostalgic to meet old friends here.

"I came from the East China Sea. How did you get here, Li Weng? You were probably still in Baiyue at that time, right? How did you come here?" Li Qi and Li Weng started talking and asked about each other's situation.

Li Weng also looked very happy and responded immediately: "It's a long story. I reconciled with the Wang family at first, and everyone was happy afterwards. I wish everyone left with plenty of water, and the Wang family invited people, according to the I hope that the pattern you mentioned will reshape the tomb for me. After that, I will stop cursing and turn to blessing. From then on, the Wang family will prosper and embark on the path of spiritual practice. "

"And I have been cultivating quietly in the tomb for three years. Three years later, something sinister came to my door."

"I originally thought that Yin Chai was here to arrest me and throw me into reincarnation. I was already lamenting that I could not be captured. However, Yin Chai said that I had a predestined relationship, was contaminated by divine energy, and had the Five Elements pattern added to me. Now it has become a climate. From now on, if I don't take the initiative, I can If you don’t enter reincarnation and practice the ghost path, you can live a second life.”

"That's when I realized that the whip that Zhu Ren whipped me had the aura of the Ghost Emperor on it. It was really thanks to Zhu Ren's help that I was able to escape from reincarnation."

Hearing this, Li Qi smiled and said, "I didn't know about this at the time. I can only say that it was all your fate."

"That's what I said, but Li Weng dared not forget to wish people great kindness and virtue. Speaking of Yin Cha, Yin Cha said that I was no longer in reincarnation, so he asked me if I would like to be admitted to the City God and become a serious person. As for my background, I thought about it, so I went to the Chenghuang Temple and took the exam to become a government official. I even entered the ghost gate and became a serious underworld official. Now I was assigned to supervise under the big peach tree in Dushuoshan Mountain. In this ghost market, it is the right way to uphold justice for all the little devils." Li Weng said, bowing respectfully to Li Qi and thanking him for his help.

It was Li Qi who transformed him with the spirit of the Ghost Emperor, and designed a real five-element pattern for him to temper his ghost body. He was able to practice alone, break away from reincarnation, and rely entirely on the other party. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was the grace of reinvention.

Now that he has become an undercover agent and has gained experience, he understands how amazing it is that an unworthy Zhuren could come up with a magic weapon with the spirit of a ghost emperor.

I'm afraid... this Zhu Ren is a disciple of Wushen Mountain, and he is much more prominent than this shady person like myself.

As for the Ghost Emperor's theory, both parties understand this.

The two brothers Shen Tu and Yu Lei are actually the Eastern Ghost Emperors among the Five Ghost Emperors.

Brothers Shen Tu and Yu Lei, the Ghost Emperor of the East, governed the great peach tree in Shuo Mountain.

The Southern Ghost Emperor governs Luofu Mountain.

The Ghost Emperor of the West governs Hatazuka Mountain.

The Central Ghost Emperor governs Baodu Mountain.

The Ghost Emperor of the North ruled Luofeng Mountain.

Yes, Luofu Mountain is actually a ghost gate.

As one of the ten major caves of Taoism, Luofu Mountain itself certainly has many strange features. The first is the pattern, which Luoshan has existed since ancient times. Fushan was originally one of the peaks of Penglai. During the Yao period, floods came from the sea and came to Luoshan, so they were collectively called Luofu Mountain.

There is a "Zhu Ming Cave" on the top of the mountain. It is called Zhu Ming in Japan and also called Yaozhen. It belongs to Yang Ming and is red in color. It is a place of extreme sunshine.

There is another ghost gate underground, which is a very gloomy place.

The combination of the two creates the merging pattern of yin and yang in Luofu Mountain. This is why the exercises and Taoism of Luofu Mountain attach so much importance to the changes of yin and yang.

"Haha, I didn't know that Shen Tu Yu Lei's divine energy had such an effect at the beginning, so it was a mistake. By the way, when I first came here, I saw countless souls being tortured outside here. Does Li Weng know what's going on? ?" After the two parties finished their greetings, Li Qi couldn't wait to ask.

There is an old acquaintance of Yin Zha here, so don't ask for nothing. This is all knowledge that only Yin Zha knows.

"Oh, I wish you to ask this? Although it is a ghost gate in the human world, it is the underworld after all. Those outside are evil ghosts, and guilty people. If their merits and sins cannot be redeemed, they will have to be punished until they atone for their sins." Li Weng explained: "So all ghosts caught here must first be examined by the Ghost Emperor. If they are extremely evil, they must be tortured outside before they can enter reincarnation."

Li Qi nodded and said: "So that's it, then all the ghosts that can appear here are actually not that bad?"

"Indeed, they cannot be said to be good people, but at least they are not extremely evil people. However, the time they can stay on this island is also limited. Unlike Yinzai, who do not enter reincarnation, their spiritual bodies will gradually dissipate. This is called 'Yinshou' ', after the Yin life is over, you have to reincarnate."

Speaking of this, Li Weng asked curiously: "Zhuren, the ghost gate here is not so easy to come to. You said you are from the East China Sea? How can you not be corroded by the Yin Qi?"
