Celestial being
Chapter 156 Ghost Market
In the room, Huanshi picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He looked at the young man in white and said calmly: "Why, do you care about losing to him?"
"Disciple is really not willing to lose to someone at the ninth level of Qi Refining." The voice of the young man in white was filled with dissatisfaction.
"In that fight, you didn't lose unjustly." Huanshi looked at the young man in white for a moment and said slowly.
The young man in white didn't speak, his breathing became heavier, and he was obviously not convinced.
"Although your cultivation level is higher than that person's, your experience in facing the enemy is far less than the other person's. You are more greedy for success and rush to advance. How can you be invincible." Huanshi said slowly.
"Master reprimanded me." The young man in white responded in a low voice, his eyes flickering.
"I know you want to compete with that person again to regain face, but with your current strength, you can't be the opponent of the boy in the bamboo hat, not to mention that big things are about to happen. Don't stir up disputes over trivial matters. If it affects You know the consequences of the alliance leader's major event!" Huanshi frowned and his tone became serious.
"Master, don't worry, this disciple knows the importance." When the young man in white heard the word "alliance leader", his face changed color and he responded solemnly.
"Haha, young people need to be motivated. If you lose this time, you should practice hard and try to regain your place in the next meeting. Second brother, you can't suppress Tuo Zhe too much and let Tuo Zhe lose his youthful spirit." The door to the room was pushed open, and a mighty man walked in, followed by the woman in white.
"Brother, aren't you in seclusion? Why are you here?" Huanshi stood up and said with surprise.
"Leader." The young man in white hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Could this person be Bai Ye, the leader of the scattered alliance?" When Yuan Ming heard this, he hurriedly controlled the soul crow to calm down, but he also listened more attentively.
The leader of the Bai Ye San Alliance appears, and I am afraid they will discuss some more confidential information, maybe related to the mission.
"Cultivation breakthroughs do not happen overnight. I heard from Ling'er that the preparations for the mission of hunting down the Golden Flower Python King are almost complete. Come and ask about the situation." The mighty man said.
"Everything is almost ready, we..."
Soul Crow listened carefully to the conversation in the room. At this moment, the sounds in the room suddenly stopped, and the breathing of the four people could not be heard.
"Everyone is clearly in the house, why is there suddenly no sound? It seems that someone has used a talisman like a soundproof cover. I am really cautious in this white night." Yuan Ming had a look of regret on his face.
What those people talked about next should be more confidential matters. Unfortunately, Soul Crow's magical power is limited and cannot break through the sound barrier. This exploration can only stop there.
Fortunately, I have gathered a lot of information, and I have some ideas in my mind. It is not a wasted trip.
Yuan Ming summoned Soul Crow back, got up and got out of bed, and was about to leave. His eyes glanced at his right arm, and an idea suddenly came to him.
The soul crow cannot detect the soundproof cover, but the incense burner does not seem to have this limitation. If it can be possessed directly like the little emperor, maybe it can listen to the conversation of several people openly?
With the mystery of the incense burner, Bai Ye probably wouldn't be able to find it, so he could try out the effect of his newly configured incense.
"Why haven't I thought of this kind of detection method before? It seems that the use of the incense burner is not enough!" Yuan Ming said to himself, took out the incense burner, took out a newly made incense stick and lit it, and kept thinking about the young man in white during the day. appearance.
Gradually, his vision went dark, and his consciousness fell into darkness. He soon recovered, and a spacious and elegant room came into view.
Yuan Ming was standing on the right side of the room. The woman in white stood side by side with him. Huan Shi and a burly man were sitting on two big yellow wooden chairs opposite.
"It actually works! It seems that the method of locking the possessed object with thoughts should be correct!" Yuan Ming was delighted and quickly calmed down.
"Is this person Bai Ye?" He looked at the burly man opposite him anxiously.
Although Yuan Ming is very confident in the incense burner, the monks in the late stage of foundation establishment are very important. Maybe they have some magical skills that can sense his presence.
Bai Ye was looking at Huan Shi beside him, not noticing Yuan Ming's possession at all.
Yuan Mingsi listened to the conversation between several people.
"...I have never seen that person before. His cultivation level is not high. He is only at the ninth level of Qi refining, but his magic power is extremely pure. He is practicing some kind of superior technique. It is definitely not an ordinary casual practice. Out of ten Bajiu is a core disciple of a certain sect." To Yuan Ming's expectation, Huan Shi was talking about him.
"Black Rock City is a famous city in the Northern Territory. It is normal for some sect disciples to go down the mountain to practice. It is normal for them to change their appearance and come here to take on a mission. Don't pay attention to it." Bai Ye continued.
"What the leader said is that with such a high reward as our inducement this time, there should be more than just that kid from the sect who come to apply. With these people joining us, this mission should be safe and sound," Huanshi said.
"Those people only need to help us find the nest, pay more to those who find it, and give the others some hard work. Although we are a bit exaggerated in the rewards, we have not broken the rules. As for the last Python King , we still have to deal with it ourselves, we can't count on those people. Have the obstacle avoidance beads been prepared?" Bai Ye shook his head slowly and asked in a different direction.
"Poison Shadow has just sent a message, saying that the obstacle avoidance beads have been refined and will be traded in the ghost market tonight." Huanshi said.
"Okay, with the Obstacle Avoidance Bead, the poisonous miasma in the Snake King Valley will not be a concern. The situation in the ghost market is complicated. To be on the safe side, second brother, please go there in person tonight and make sure to get this matter done." Bai Ye nodded and ordered again. road.
"I'm afraid this won't work. The Poison Shadow is very cautious and sent a message saying that the Qi Refining Stage monk must go to the transaction." Huanshi said and took out a piece of white paper with a few lines of small words written on it.
Bai Ye took the paper and it said the method of transaction. Disciples in the Qi Refining Stage must come and meet somewhere in the ghost market to check the password before trading items.
"Haha, this poisonous shadow is indeed as cunning and careful as the rumors say. In that case, let Tuo Zhe take care of this matter." Bai Ye chuckled and handed the paper to the young man in white.
"Yes." The young man in white took the paper, and Yuan Ming also saw the content on the paper.
At this moment, his eyes quickly turned dark, and the time limit for possession had expired.
…
Inside the inn, Yuan Ming slowly opened his eyes.
This time the possession lasted for almost twenty breaths, which was twice as long as before. The incense made by grinding the spirit wood into powder and adding incense ash was indeed effective.
"On the whole, there is nothing wrong with this mission. At least there is no plot to harm anyone by the White Night Alliance. It's just that the reward is just a gimmick. But when it comes to finding a nest, I don't have to worry too much with the soul crow here. If it's just like this, I can make money. A sum of spiritual stones is not a loss at all." Yuan Ming touched his chin and thought to himself.
He sat quietly in the room for a moment, and after a moment of uncertainty on his face, he stood up again and left the inn.
Half an hour later, Yuan Ming and Gu Yue sat opposite each other in an elegant room of a teahouse in the West Market.
"Sorry for calling Brother Gu Yue out so late." Yuan Ming said.
"Brother Yuan, what did you say? You took care of my business. It's too late for me to be grateful. How can I blame you? If you have anything to do, just say it's okay. I will do my best." Gu Yue said hurriedly.
"Yuan wants to ask Brother Gu Yue, what is a ghost market?" Yuan Ming asked straight to the point.
When Bai Ye and Huan Shi talked about the ghost market, their tone was obviously different. This place must be extraordinary.
"Where did Brother Yuan find out about the ghost market?" Gu Yue was slightly surprised.
"I accidentally heard someone mention it when I was wandering around in the afternoon. During the day, Brother Gu Yue said that Black Rock City has four cities: East, West, South, and North. I don't know where another ghost market appeared?" Yuan Ming said half-truth and half-falsely. .
"How do I put it? The ghost market can also be regarded as a trading market, but it only opens after midnight. It is opposite to the light and dark of the market during the day, so it is called a ghost market. However, most of the items traded in it cannot be circulated on the open side. Things, such as stolen goods obtained by killing people and taking treasures, prohibited items in the world of immortality, etc. These transactions are too eye-catching during the day, so they choose to conduct them at midnight." Gu Yue scratched his head and said.
"According to what you said, there are a lot of good things in the ghost market, and the price shouldn't be too expensive." Yuan Ming was not disgusted with this kind of business and asked with interest.
"There are all kinds of magic tools, talismans, elixirs, and medicines in the ghost market. It's just that most of the things come from erroneous sources and the prices are relatively low. But there's a mixed bag of good and bad people there, and the water is too deep. I don't dare to say that it's foolproof, so I'm in this business among us." Yes, it’s easy not to get involved in the ghost market." Gu Yue said frankly.
Yuan Ming nodded slowly and made some calculations in his mind.
"If I want to visit the ghost market, how should I go?" Yuan Ming heard that the other party was unwilling to go to the ghost market, so he asked.
Gu Yue told him an address and what to pay attention to after entering.
"The ghost market has a wide range of implications. Some people find good things there and make a lot of money, and some people lose their lives because they sell things they shouldn't sell or buy things they shouldn't buy. If Brother Yuan goes there, Be careful when trading." Gu Yue reminded.
Yuan Ming promised and wanted to pay Gu Yue, but Gu Yue declined this time, and Yuan Ming no longer insisted.
"The market opened at midnight, it's almost time now." Yuan Ming quickened his pace and soon arrived at an alley in the northwest of Black Rock City where mortals lived.
The night here was extremely dark, and it was difficult to see clearly beyond a few feet. There seemed to be a black mist surging in the air.
Yuan Ming noticed the mana fluctuations in the black mist and knew that he was looking in the wrong place. He continued to move forward. The darkness around him became thicker and thicker, to the point where he could hardly see his fingers.
He activated his consciousness to investigate, but his actions were not affected.
After walking a few feet further, a tall and thick stone wall appeared, completely blocking the way forward.
"I want to enter the ghost market." Yuan Ming did not climb over the wall, but looked at an inconspicuous shadow on the right side of the stone wall and said in a deep voice.
After the words fell, a black figure walked out of the shadows. There was no breath in his body, as if he was a ghost.
"Fellow Taoist, do you want to hang up a lamp or look for a fire?" The black shadow looked Yuan Ming up and down and asked in a hoarse voice.
This is the code word for the ghost market. Hanging lanterns means setting up stalls, while looking for fire means buying things.
"Looking for fire." Yuan Ming said.
The black shadow said nothing and waved his hand on the wall.
There was a "click-click" sound of machine operation in the thick wall, and a gap opened in the middle. It slowly grew larger and soon formed a three-foot-wide passage.
