Chapter 460 Ghost Market
Li Qi and Li Weng...no, one person and one ghost, walking through the ghost market.
Many weird scenes, passing by one person and one ghost.
There are ghosts holding children, ghosts crying, monks, clay ghosts, rats playing, snakes, intestinal convulsions, and many other strange things, but they are all common in the ghost market.
The two chatted and told each other about the situation.
Li Qi also directly told Li Weng why he would not be affected, because the fifth-grade treasure ship he was on had given them enough blessings when they disembarked.
This kind of blessing is enough to resist the evil spirit of hell.
As for why Li Qineng took the fifth-grade treasure ship, neither of them got involved in this topic.
The title "Zhuren" has been made very clear.
Li Weng knew very well that the man in front of him could show off the spirit of the Ghost Emperor when he was not in the first rank, and now he could ride on the fifth rank treasure ship when he went out. Obviously, he was a real "Zhu Ren".
Not the kind of self-proclaimed witch Zhu, but the real Zhu Ren lineage, one of the true masters of witchcraft.
To give an analogy, the Ghost Dao is directly related to Fengdu, and is even more orthodox than the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions.
Thinking of this, Li Weng became more and more respectful, but he also didn't perform any drama of bowing before him. That would be too dishonorable and would easily break the relationship.
Moreover, looking at it now... this Zhuren seemed to be very interested in this ghost market, and he kept asking what the weird things he saw were along the way.
Li Weng naturally responded to every question respectfully with the attitude of a person repaying kindness.
Following these questions and answers, Li Qi also learned many details about this ghost market.
It turns out that the reason why we can see the souls of many living people is because the ghost market does not actually exist in the world.
When you come to the ghost market, you have actually arrived in the underworld. If you don't have magical power to protect your body, you will definitely be eroded by the yin energy of the underworld.
As the saying goes, sleeping is half-dead. When people are asleep and dreaming, part of their souls often leaves the body. The part that represents life is still in the body, but the other part has begun to wander.
This is a ghost that leaves the body and sleeps in the underworld. Many strong men used to know this trick. There was also a powerful man in the human world who wanted to slay the dragon, but he was delayed because he had an audience with the Human Emperor and could not leave, so he simply fought on the spot. I took a nap, and after falling asleep, the Yin Shen traveled at night, wandered thousands of miles, killed a real dragon, and returned in three quarters of an hour.
Taoists do not need to sleep, because they have completely controlled the yin, yang and yang gods. They no longer rely on sleep for night tours, and can easily leave the body directly.
Ordinary people cannot actively control this power, but when they are asleep, as their dreams unfold, they can also wander at night, sometimes just wandering on the streets, but if they are lucky enough, they can sink deeper into the underworld. Come and wander around places like hell, or ghost markets.
Li Weng told Li Qi this matter as a funny story, but after hearing it, Li Qi immediately became acutely aware of something.
On a deeper level...that is to say, the underworld and the yang world are not actually completely separated?
For example, some of those souls even live in the far north, but after falling asleep, they still come to the ghost market in Dushuo Mountain. When they wake up, they will return to their bodies.
The underworld is not outside the yang world. The two are probably two sides of one space? At least in the world? As long as you dream, you can enter the underworld, and wherever you are, you may end up in another ghost market.
So, what is the significance of the existence of the Gate of Hell?
Li Qi asked Li Weng insinuatingly, but after asking for a long time, he couldn't find anything useful. Li Weng was just an eighth-grade shady, a small-time minion who didn't know these things.
Li Qi had no choice but to continue to bury this question and then ask him other things.
for example--
"By the way, does the ghost market here have trade with the East China Sea? Or is it just used for transactions between ghosts?" Li Qi asked.
When Li Weng heard this question, he smiled and said: "Is Zhuren really here for this? Of course, the ghost market cannot only allow little ghosts to trade. In fact, many powerful practitioners will come to this place, including Zhurenyou and Zhurenyou." Just as strong."
"After all, the ghost market is very convenient. From anywhere, you can come to the ghost market through the Yin Shen Night Tour. Although you can't stay for a long time, if it is just a short-term transaction, it is more than enough."
"As expected, can I trouble Li Weng and help me contact those places? Although the ordinary area of the ghost city is strange, it is just a scenery, but it is enough to appreciate it." Li Qi said.
Li Weng nodded: "What's so difficult about this? Originally, I and other underworld servants have the responsibility to lead the way. If anyone needs it, I should try my best. Please come with me."
Li Weng said and walked towards another direction of the ghost market.
Li Qi immediately followed, but something moved in his heart.
Because, when he saw that Li Weng was walking past, it was clearly a dead end. The yin energy in that place was so thick that it condensed into a wall, and even ordinary ghosts could not get in.
Li Qi still thought it was just a building, but now it seems that such places are roads leading to other places?
So, what exactly is the underworld? Why do ghosts seem to think everything is normal? Even ordinary ghosts who have never seen the world, or living souls who think they are dreaming, can naturally know the way, but Li Qi, a living person, feels there is something wrong with it. No way can be seen.
Even if you really know the rhyme, you can’t tell.
The space in the underworld is not all linear? In fact, there are many strange points, right?
Li Qi followed Li Weng while guessing.
After passing through the wall of Yin Qi, Li Qi confirmed his guess. The space in the underworld is indeed a bit strange. It is not an intuitive linear space, but has a certain degree of distortion. Only ghosts are immune to this distortion.
Without the guidance of ghosts, people in the world of the living may not be able to move here and can only walk around.
Then the question is-
If this is true, then why did the scientific research ship of Li Dao stop here and let everyone get off the ship and walk around? Obviously, walking around like this should not have any results.
Could it be that Li Dao really came here for something, so he let others walk around and relax?
This possibility cannot be ruled out... After all, the people of Li Dao seem to have simple minds, and Wang Dun seems to be an upright follower of Taoism.
However, Li Qi thinks that people who treat others as fools are the real fools, so they still have to be careful.
Thinking of this, the yin energy in front of him suddenly dissipated.
It seemed as if there was a village after a dark period, as if he had walked into the endless darkness, and then suddenly the scene in front of him was clear.
Then, Li Qi was surprised to find that -
In front of him, it was no longer that gloomy, but came to a place similar to... a palace.
This seemed to be a palace, and it was in the water.
The Yin and Yang secret rooms were connected, the cave doors and pillars were carved, and the copper-painted windows and windows were all gorgeous.
The true spirit pavilions and pavilions were connected and looked at each other. The flying beams and stone steps, the mausoleums spanned the waterway, and the gold, jade, pearls, exotic treasures, and various exotic beasts were all placed here in a dignified manner.
In addition, the gardens were opened widely, and the soil was mined to build mountains. There were nine slopes every ten miles, which resembled the deep forests and ravines of the two valleys. Countless natural strange fish and sea beasts swam in between. There were also luxurious houses and beautiful maids, all wearing silk and embroidered earrings.
Li Qi and Li Weng walked through here and saw many maids, all of them were mermaids or clam girls. They were carrying trays, holding musical instruments, luxury items for appreciation, or some food, and constantly swimming around in various places.
Gold, green, silk and bamboo, all the best choices at the time.
The kitchen utensils were all the treasures from land and water.
Beside the road, corals stood, some were three or four feet high, with six or seven branches, extraordinary colors, shining in the sun.
The blazing sun in the sky made the bottom of the water very bright, and occasionally there were some protruding rocks. The road was covered with a carpet formed by mollusks and zoophytes. Among the species of these animals, many thin shells of different sizes could be seen.
There were some thick crustaceans, with long claws raised, looking at the mermaids passing by with full vigilance.
There was no comfortable furniture, basically all made of stone. There were no comfortable textiles and soft flannel in the water, which would become wet in the water, but there were clothes like water grass, and the dress was similar to swimsuits, which was very cool.
The buildings here are also different, from various towers and halls carved out of living shells to halls inlaid with bright night pearls, with many seaweed balls and coral duckweed, as well as coral trees on the roadside.
Here, it is like a palace in a shallow sea area.
Li Qi's ears are even constantly ringing with music, which is extremely pleasant and makes people feel very comfortable, but there is one thing, that is, it cannot be removed.
This feeling is like walking on the street, and suddenly the melody of music heard a few days ago or even a few years ago begins to echo in your mind. The lingering sound is endless. You want to concentrate, but your mind is full of that sound, and you can't stop it.
It's very strange, but it doesn't affect thinking.
Li Qi will hold his breath in the water, but even so, he can still feel the fragrance of flowers.
Li Weng introduced: "It smells good, right? Zhu Ren, the clothes worn by these maids are called low-light lotus, which are like black pearls and can be used as ornaments. After the flowers and leaves wither, they are woven into clothes. The fragrance spreads over ten miles. Eating it makes people's breath fragrant and benefits people's skin." "Also, the sound in your ears is the sound of sea monsters, which is the common music in this palace. There are a total of one thousand sea monsters, which rotate every day to keep the joyful music in this palace every day." "It's really amazing, but what is this place? I was in the ghost market just now, why did it become like this?" Li Qi looked at the bright sunshine and pleasant singing around him, and was a little confused. Li Weng explained: "The various big monsters, monks, and ghost kings in the East China Sea can't trade in that gloomy and gloomy atmosphere, right? With such an environment, the big guys have to do things more happily. This is the second side of the ghost market, the 'Dragon Palace' built by Jiaolong Tianhong Jun." Jiaolong Tianhong Jun! ? Dragon Palace? The second side of the ghost market?
Li Qi immediately captured the key information points.
This is still a ghost market, but it has been "decorated" to better fit the aesthetics of the East China Sea monsters, monks, and ghost kings.
This is not something done by the underworld. The person behind the scenes is actually Tianhong Jun, the famous dragon.
"Maybe you don't know that Tianhong Jun is very good at enjoying luxury and likes food. He eats 50,000 kilograms of meat in one meal, so this place is also extremely luxurious, and the food is even more moving. It is a good place to talk business in the deep ocean of the East China Sea. However, like all similar places, as notarization and stamps, half of the water is charged, but it is also very cost-effective. After all, the hospitality here is rich, and Tianhong Jun is also a powerful and powerful person. As a witness, almost no defaulter has ever escaped from his hands." Li Weng said with a smile.
"Wait a minute, you mean that Mr. Tianhong is responsible for being the notary here and guaranteeing every transaction?" Li Qi asked.
"That's it, and Tianhong Jun is famous for good hospitality and good notarization. Zhuren must want to do business, right? Whether it is selling or buying, this is the most suitable place. This kind of ghost market is the real dragon and The Ghost Emperor negotiated and built the place. There are four thousand such places in the East China Sea. If you are not an insider, you may not be able to accurately find the Dragon Palace of Lord Tianhong. I can only say that I wish you good luck. You just happened to meet me!" Li Weng patted his chest and boasted.
True Dragon... cooperates with Kidou?
interesting.
Li Qi nodded, and then said: "Thank you very much, Li Weng, for leading the way. I do have a lot of things I want to buy. Here is the list. Can you please help me contact the merchant? I think you are familiar with the road, so you should know some acquaintances." ? Why don’t you give me some recommendations? It’ll be cheaper.”
"That's natural. It's best if I can help you. Make me a list of the things you want, and I'll find them for you." As soon as Li Weng heard that Li Qi had something to ask of him, he immediately became more attentive. .
If you can catch up with Li Qi, you will be really prosperous.
Therefore, being able to help the other party is a dream for Li Weng.
However, Li Qi really needed help from a local snake, so he didn't mind this. Instead, he took out the list written by Bohaiguo from the mustard bag, copied it out, and handed it to Li Weng.
After Li Weng got it, he took a deep breath!
He asked in astonishment: "Live Zhou carp, white dragon tendons, Huang Neng, dragon king scales... Hiss, Zhu Ren, don't you want these things for yourself?!"
"That's natural. This is what an elder asked me to come to Donghai to buy for him. Don't worry, the money will definitely be enough." Li Qi said.
"This is not a matter of money. These things, I am not talking about... Zhuren, at your and my level, I'm afraid I can't touch them! Just talking about Huang Neng, this is the corpse of Tianma after his death. At last it was five years old. Taste!”
Huang Neng is a half-dragon, three-legged turtle, which was transformed into the white divine horse "Gun" after his death. Moreover, Gun is an innate god and the ancestor of the "horse" species in the world. Horses can become dragon colts. , there is also such a reason.
Although the divine horse has died and turned into an entire species, so it is captured from time to time, but this is not something that the eighth-grade Yinzai can come into contact with!
