Chapter 40: Collision for Lorie
Finally, Brother Chengxin and I entered the trading market, and as soon as we entered, we were stunned by the crowd and noisy voices.
I said that I didn't see many people in other places, but they were all gathered here, and it seems that there are a lot of cultivators who are rich, or they are willing to spend their money in such places.
It took me a while for Brother Chengxin and I to get used to the atmosphere, to the thousands of people crammed into a dam with a huge roof, like shopping, and the vegetable market was definitely not as lively as here.
If you have to describe it, it's like a job fair now, you can imagine how many people there are here! No wonder Wu Lao Er said that the two organizations here can easily get tens of millions.
But after careful calculation, this population ratio is actually terrifyingly low, you must know that there are more than a billion people in China, and the total number of people here is only about 10,000, you must know that Shen Xing told me that the ghost market is concentrated 80% of the insiders.
We came here, of course, not to see the crowds, and the space here is more than the current job fair, so it can still make people walk more calmly, Brother Chengxin and I naturally began to rush to shop after getting used to it.
At this time, we clearly saw that the original shed on the top was a simple and huge white cloth, and under the white cloth, there were these very simple stalls divided into ten rows and very simple, how simple was it? It's just a few bamboo poles supporting a tarp, and there is only a table and a chair underneath.
The table is used to place the items to be traded, and the chairs are naturally sitting stall owners, and these stall owners are also very strange, each of them wears masks, and the front and back of their bodies are covered with cloths, which shows how guarded they are!
At a distance of about one meter from the stalls, there were bright yellow lines, and Brother Chengxin and I were sensitive to discovering almost at the same time, within the yellow lines of each row of stalls, except for dozens of black-clothed people walking back and forth there, no one dared to approach the stalls when walking.
In addition, when you go in to see the goods, there will be 1 person in black following you outside, and you can only go in one person at a time to see the goods, what is the specific situation, I haven't understood the rules yet, but this should be to prevent someone from fishing in troubled waters and taking the things on the table.
Brother Chengxin and I entered this trading market full of freshness, but when we walked to the first stall, Brother Chengxin couldn't walk, we couldn't see what the specific goods were on this stall, but there was a sign clearly placed in front of the table: "Century-old ginseng." ”
Let's ask, in today's world where resources are so scarce, Brother Chengxin, as a descendant of a medical lineage, suddenly saw this, how could he not be excited? The things left to us by the ancestor are abundant, at least I know that there are two hundred-year-old ginseng sticks in Brother Chengxin, and a small section of the root of the legendary ginseng essence, but who dares to use them easily? Just as I don't dare to use our mountain characters easily.
Almost without hesitation, Brother Chengxin walked towards this stall with a step, but was stopped by a man in black, Brother Chengxin, who was about to lose control of his emotions, was stopped all of a sudden, and for the first time let me see that he showed a side that was not calm, he frowned and asked the man in black: "What are you going to do?" ”
The man in black was quite polite, ignoring Brother Chengxin's rudeness, and said, "Please make an appointment." ”
Brother Chengxin is still waiting to say more, I have already walked over and patted Brother Chengxin's shoulder gently, there is naturally a tacit understanding between our senior brothers, I don't need to say more, he calmed down his excitement a little, and asked, "How do I make an appointment?" ”
"Please wait." After speaking, the man in black walked to the stall owner, took a small wooden sign there, which said 7, and then handed it to Brother Chengxin: "There are 6 people in front of you who will negotiate with the stall owner, please pay attention to the number there, if it turns to 7, you can come in at any time with the sign." If the sign is gone, then the stall owner's transaction is complete. Wait up to 20 minutes for each digit, so be careful when you go shopping and don't get too many signs. ”
The man in black probably saw that it was the first time we came here to trade, and the explanation was very detailed, and with his guidance, we also saw that there was indeed an activity sign next to the stall, just like the old-fashioned manual scorer when playing basketball before, but it was also simple and clear.
And he also told us not to rush, only 10 cards are dealt at a time, and if we miss it, we will wait for the next round.
After understanding, he asked us for a service fee of 50 yuan, and left, this place really costs money for everything, no wonder his service attitude is so good.
After leaving, Brother Chengxin's attitude was a little anxious, he was afraid that the hundred-year-old ginseng would be taken by others, so I could only whisper to persuade Brother Chengxin not to be anxious, after all, some things still depend on fate.
Just as we were talking in a whisper, a cold snort sounded in my ears, and I turned my head to look, and I saw Lin Chen at once.
My first reaction was so coincidental, but the second reaction was relieved, it was very simple, there were eighty percent of the insiders gathered here, it was not strange that I could meet him, there was only one point of strangeness, the old man who had yelled at Lin Chen was now standing behind Lin Chen, with a respectful attitude.
It seems that the departure of Wu Liyu's generation has made Lin Chen's status rise.
I looked at Lin Chen, but I didn't plan to say anything to him, I don't think I would have anything to do with him, even if their organization wants to go against the sky, someone will naturally clean it up, not to mention that it is not for my master to 'abduct' a group of pillars, it is estimated that the ability to go against the sky has also decreased.
Time is precious, and I still want to find what I need in this market.
But I didn't want me to just turn my head, Lin Chen spoke, and his voice was very loud: "Ouch, isn't Lao Li's pulse quite high?" Why do you close the door, the big disciple, Chen Chengyi, the heir of the mountain lineage, will come to the ghost market to trade? Aren't you, the hypocritical vein, most afraid of being contaminated with cause and effect? Don't you have common sense and don't know that trading with ghosts is costly and cause and effect? Could it be that you, the big disciple of the closed door, have a rebellious spirit and are ready to bring a new atmosphere to your old Li lineage? ”
As soon as Lin Chen's words fell, I heard a discussion around me.
"What? Lao Li's vein? ”
"That vein that drove me like a water dog?"
"People from Lao Li's lineage are here? Is there something going on in this circle? ”
"I heard that Jiang Lichun seems to be missing."
"Really?"
These discussions are simply full of information in my ears, so that I can't get back to my senses for a while, this is still part of the discussion I heard, didn't I hear it? And I obviously felt that there were several searching eyes falling on me and Brother Chengxin, so that I couldn't help but scold myself, what a special spiritual sense, should I not be so sensitive, even others know that they are looking at me.
I took a deep breath and didn't want to pay attention to Lin Chen's provocation, I just came here to trade, but I was not interested in arguing with him about anything, and I was not interested in going deep into the circle, what the master did naturally had his reasons, and I had no reason not to follow it.
Therefore, I didn't answer, and pulled Brother Chengxin to turn around and leave.
But Lin Chen didn't give up at all, he suddenly shouted: "Chen Chengyi, look at this." ”
I stopped, turned to look, but saw him take out a pendant wrapped in black cloth from his neck, I stared at him and didn't know what to mean, but he said, "Here is a phalange, and in the phalanx lives one of the most regretful knots of my life." Because of regret, I can only accompany each other day and night! Do you know what this knot is? ”
My heart began to beat violently, the black cloth was wrapped in a bone weapon, this is a soul detention artifact, it is too obvious, so there can only be one thing in it, and that is the revenant!!
Anger began to appear in my eyes, I expected Lin Chen not to say an unacceptable answer in the next moment, I stared at his lips tightly, but I saw a circle of laugh lines on his lips, and then moved slightly, and spit out two words: "Erin." ”
"I'm X fucking you!" I couldn't help it anymore, I rushed over in a few steps, my anger was not unreasonable, Erin was already dead, the best way was of course to let her go, this Lin Chen actually used Erin's finger bones to summon Erin's soul and detained it inside, how much torture was this for Erin?
He was too selfish, he was too crazy, Erin's love, a love that he was willing to give up even if he died, was ruined by Lin Chen like this.
But I didn't succeed in rushing in front of Lin Chen at all, and I was stopped by a few black-clothed people 'politely' and warned me that no form of fighting or fighting is allowed in this trading market.
Lin Chen stood there calmly and said, "Chen Chengyi, you don't know how deep my hatred for you is? If you and your master hadn't stopped me from taking Erin back then, how could I have been able to summon a remnant soul like an idiot, and I would have had her in its entirety. And you are destined to be my stepping stone. Wait, there's a lot going on in the trading market. ”
After saying that, Lin Chen turned around and left, and my eyes were bloodshot because of anger, and I scolded Lin Chen: "You shit, such a magic weapon will make Erin's soul fly away in twenty years at most, you let her go!" ”
But Lin Chen didn't look back at all.
