I Have a City in a Different World
Chapter 2465 Recipe for information
"What you said makes some sense. Why don't you tell me first, how much can you pay?"
Tang Zhen looked at the old man and said in a light tone.
The old man was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately stretched out three dry fingers and shook them in front of Tang Zhen.
"I'll give out three gold coins, an absolutely fair price!"
When giving the price, the old man's mouth showed a hint of pride, probably because he felt that his price was sincere enough.
"Hehe, go as far as you want, we really don't lack those gold coins!"
Before Tang Zhen spoke, Ergou suddenly took the words, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
If you go to the ghost town, maybe you only need a gold coin to make Ergou work hard.
In this world, the purchasing power of a gold coin is very strong, and the total property of many families is not worth a single gold coin.
The price given by the old man is very sincere, and ordinary people can live a good life for a while after they have three gold coins.
But before leaving the ghost town, Ergou made a fortune, and now he has at least ten gold coins in his pocket.
After you have money in your pocket, your vision will naturally increase, and you will not be easily tempted by a few gold coins.
At the same time, he also has a feeling that Tang Zhen's cooking method is very valuable, and it is definitely not a good thing that can be bought with a few gold coins.
So when the old man offered the price of three gold coins, Ergou jumped out and vetoed, lest Tang Zhen be deceived by the other party.
It's just that as soon as the words came out, he immediately regretted it, feeling that he should listen to Tang Zhen's opinion first, instead of making such an opinion.
He secretly turned his head to look, but saw that Tang Zhen also shook his head, and Ergou's hanging heart immediately let go.
Fortunately, I don't seem to have done anything wrong, but I still have to pay attention next time.
The old man's expression was a little surprised, obviously he didn't expect to be rejected, and he quickly asked: "Are you dissatisfied with the price, if so, we can actually talk more.
Of course, what I want to say is that in fact, the price of the three gold coins is very sincere. If it is replaced by someone else, it may not be given such a high price! "
Tang Zhen looked at the old man, shook his head gently and said, "I'm not short of money, but if you can answer some of the questions I want to know, then I can give the formula away for free."
After hearing Tang Zhen's words, the old man was slightly taken aback, feeling a little incredible.
However, he was determined to win the formula, and naturally he would not miss any opportunity, so he nodded and agreed.
"You ask, if it is something I know, I will tell you as much as possible!
Of course, I also hope that you will abide by the agreement and tell me the recipe after I answer the question. "
"Don't worry, I will do what I say."
Tang Zhen looked at Ergou and asked him to get another wooden bowl and put a bowl of soup for the old man to taste.
Ergou was a little reluctant, feeling that these were not enough for the two of them, but he absolutely did not dare to disobey Tang Zhen's order.
He filled a bowl of soup with a spoon, and the two dogs gave it to the old man. The other party thanked him and immediately took a sip.
He wasn't worried about poisoning. After all, Tang Zhen had already eaten it, and his partner was right beside him, so he didn't need to worry at all.
Eat the food in one go,
The old man praised again and again, saying that he had traveled far and wide, but had never tasted such delicious food.
"Your Excellency, please ask your question now."
After eating Tang Zhen's food, the old man wanted to get the formula more and more, and his attitude became more active.
"I want to know about weird and evil things, such as where there are monsters, and where there are rumors of hauntings. The more detailed the better."
The old man's face stiffened when he heard the words, he really did not expect that Tang Zhen would ask such a question.
"Your Excellency, your question is really..."
The old man shook his head. He had just guessed in his mind the question Tang Zhen might ask, and at the same time he was thinking about how to answer it.
It's just that he never dreamed that Tang Zhen's question would be so bizarre that he didn't know how to answer it.
But after thinking about it, the old man spoke slowly and told Tang Zhen something he knew.
"About three hundred miles from this place, there is a place called Duotou Ridge. It is said that there was a war here, and countless soldiers were trapped in the valley.
The confrontation between the two sides lasted for more than a month. In the end, the trapped side was defeated, and all the prisoners were beheaded and discarded.
Since this incident, the valley has been shrouded in gray fog, and I often hear mourning sounds coming from the valley, day and night.
There were even people who saw headless soldiers appear, specializing in robbing and killing passers-by, not asking for money, but only their heads!
Originally, I thought it was a false story, but some time ago, a caravan passed by, and more than 100 people were killed, and none of the goods and goods were missing, but all the heads were missing. "
When the old man said this, there was a hint of fear on his face. He happened to pass by Duotou Ridge at the time, so he witnessed the tragic scene with his own eyes.
Originally, he didn't believe the rumors of Guotouling, but after seeing the headless corpses, he felt that some of the rumors might not be false.
After another half month, the old man returned to Guotouling again, and this time he encountered something that he will never forget.
When he was about to arrive at the entrance of Guotou Mountain, the old man had seen with his own eyes a large number of soldiers in battle armor appeared out of thin air in the gray fog.
They held rusty knives and guns in their hands, and most of the soldiers had nothing on their shoulders, only their bare necks, and where did their heads go?
There are also soldiers with heads that look crooked, and there are even men with women's heads on their bodies.
This is obviously after cutting off someone else's head and putting it on his own body, so it looks very weird.
There are also some officers with more than one head on their shoulders, some of which are completely rotten, and some look very fresh, obviously from some unlucky person.
The old man and the others who saw this scene were all trembling with fright, and everyone kept their mouths shut to avoid attracting the attention of the monsters.
It was not until the monsters left that they dared to come out of the hiding place, and then ran all the way to leave Guotou Hill, even if the shoes ran away, they did not dare to pick them up.
"If your Excellency doesn't believe it, you can ask some of my comrades in the team. They were there at the time, and they were all so frightened."
The old man was afraid that Tang Zhen would not believe it, so he quickly added a sentence to prove that he was definitely not talking nonsense.
Tang Zhen nodded, feeling that the headless soldiers in Guotouling were actually similar to those corpses in the ghost town.
They are all formed because of special power. After the monks in Loucheng hunt them down, they can complete the improvement of their strength.
"Apart from Duotou Mountain, are there other places where there are similar legends?"
Tang Zhen remembered Guotouling and decided to take a look there first. If there are a lot of monsters, it will definitely make him a lot of money.
And this kind of thing can't be delayed. If other Loucheng cultivators take the lead, that is the most depressing thing.
"I have heard some similar rumors over the years, but most of them are chasing the wind and cannot tell the truth from the false.
The only place that really makes me sure that there is something odd is Sleeping Hill, because that's what I saw with my own eyes! "
After getting the information he wanted, Tang Zhen decided to act immediately. Facing countless competitors, he had to race against time.
"That's how it's made, you'd better keep in mind..."
Tang Zhen didn't talk nonsense, he told the old man the recipe directly, and he didn't hide anything.
The old man provided the information Tang Zhen wanted, and he would naturally abide by the agreement and complete the transaction between the two parties.
The old man was very surprised. He didn't expect Tang Zhen to be so happy. He quickly listened carefully and kept it in his heart.
"Let's go, let's go to Guotouling now!"
Tang Zhen said to Ergou, without any hesitation, turned and walked towards the horned beast not far away.
Ergou didn't talk nonsense, put the items he took out into his pockets, and then devoured the rest of the food.
Under the shocked eyes of the old man, the two stepped onto the horned beast and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
