Starlight Bingfeng 064 Ghost City
"Wait a minute! Don't leave now!" Li Hao saw that several people were about to get in the car, so he hurriedly shouted from behind.
"What?" When he heard that Li Hao actually told her and others not to leave, Hu Changchang stopped doing it first. She passed by everyone, walked to Li Hao, and glared at her, "I have given you the copper coins, what else do you want to do?"
Zhao Gang and others also looked at Li Hao with unpleasant expressions.
"Oh, no no, no, don't get me wrong," Li Hao quickly waved his hands and explained, "I just want to ask, where is that ghost market?"
"The Ghost Market is in the vegetable wholesale market on Huayuan Road, Donglai District. However, it only starts in the early morning." Hu Changchang's face calmed down when he heard that Li Hao was just asking about the location of the Ghost Market.
"Oh, that's it, then... do you still remember the number of that shop?" Li Hao asked carefully, "I want to see if he has any copper coins like this!"
"Let me think about it... Well, I finished the roasted chicken wings, and then bought yogurt... and ate ice cream... Haha, I remembered it, just diagonally opposite the barbecue strips..." Hu Changchang didn't say anything at the end, so he looked at the people with question marks on his face, and suddenly felt embarrassed, "Oh, forget it, I'll go with you tonight."
"Really? Thank you so much!" Li Hao was overjoyed and was so excited that he didn't know what to say, "I...I will treat you to a meal!"
"This sentence sounds almost the same!" Hu Changchang nodded, turned to Zhao Gang and said, "Brother Gang, you guys go back first, tell my dad that I can just take a taxi home by myself in the evening."
Zhao Gang frowned. Just as he was about to say something, Sun Jing walked up, took out his police officer certificate from his pocket, opened it and handed it to Zhao Gang, "Don't worry, we will send your sister home safely."
"Then I'll trouble you." Zhao Gang took the police officer certificate and took a closer look. After secretly remembering it, he gave it to Sun Jing. He turned his head and said to Hu Changchang, "If you have anything, remember to call me."
"Well, I understand!" Hu Changchang gave him an impatient look.
...
It is said that women are easy to get along with, but as expected, in just a short while, Hu Changchang had already become acquainted with Sun Jing.
"Hey, monkey, I have already discussed with Sister Sun. In the afternoon, we will accompany you to go shopping first, and in the evening, we will take you to the ghost market." Hu Changchang held Sun Jing's arm and said with a sly look on his face, "But... in return, you not only want to invite Sister Sun and me to ice cream, snacks, hot pot, but also to invite us to watch movies... In short, we will be responsible for all the expenses we spent with you shopping this afternoon? Just be fair!"
"It's so fair!" Li Hao kept nodding.
"Hahaha..." Hu Changchang and Sun Jing smiled together and leaned back and forth when they saw Li Hao's expression.
"I can't tell, you dead monkey, are you quite generous! Haha." Hu Changchang looked like he had succeeded in his plan. "Then let's go directly to Qianda Plaza now. It is the most famous commercial street in Sanping District and is close to Ghost Market. When the movie ends, we can go there directly, which will save the most time!"
"Okay, but I said, can you? Don't open your mouth and keep silent and you're dead monkey
Zi, the dead monkey is calling!" Li Hao glanced at Hu Changchang, "Do I don't have a name?"
"No!" Hu Changchang seemed to be competing with Li Hao today, and he was facing tit-for-tat everywhere.
Sun Jing covered her mouth and smiled secretly. Li Hao shook his head helplessly and sighed.
Although there were two beauties shopping with him, Li Hao was obviously absent-minded. He didn't talk much along the way, just kept rubbing the copper coin, not knowing what to think about anymore. Not to mention, this seemingly inconspicuous copper coin actually contained quite a lot of spiritual energy. This also made him feel excited all day long, and he became more and more excited about the ghost market. If he could really find a few more such copper coins at night, maybe he could bring unexpected surprises to himself.
...
When the nightclub movie ended, it was already past 1 o'clock at night. Li Hao walked to the front of the car and was about to open the door of the cab, but Hu Changchang grabbed him. "Oh, alas, you've been stunned for a whole day today. I don't dare to take the car you drive." Hu Changchang stared at Li Hao with his big eyes, "My life is precious, you can't afford it! Let Sister Sun drive it."
"Chang Chang is right!" Sun Jing was also a little worried about Li Hao's condition, so she took the car keys from Li Hao's hand and drove Li Hao to the back row.
"Oh, Chang Chang, why is the good market called the ghost market?" Sun Jing asked while driving.
"I asked Uncle Gongyang before, and he said that it was a place where tomb robbers sold stolen goods. There were many thieves, robbers, and even people from the underworld who often went there to buy the items they needed. Because they were afraid that others would recognize themselves, they kept them tightly and traded them. Over time, everyone called it the "Ghost Market". Later, that place was banned by the local government, but there were still many people who still took some strange things and sold them there."
"Ah? Then... is there no one to manage that place now? Is it safe?" Sun Jing asked immediately after hearing this.
"It's very safe," Hu Changchang, who was sitting on the passenger seat, adjusted his comfortable position and half-lying down. "I heard Uncle Gongyang say that after the government banned it, the security environment was really bad in the first period, and street conflicts were repeatedly banned. Several vicious fights occurred, and even the local public security department had a headache. But just a few years ago, a group of people suddenly came to the ghost market. In a very short time, they cleared out many hooligans and illegal vendors around. Then, the group invested themselves to build a market."
"There are some vegetables and fruits sold there during the day, and at night they still ask everyone to buy and change items. Moreover, the group of people also invited some local leaders to guide the visit from time to time, gradually eliminating the bad impression of the ghost market in people's minds. It is said that they pay a lot of taxes to Changyang City every year."
"When I went there with Uncle Yang for the first time, I felt that the security situation was very good and prosperous. Moreover, I did see a lot of strange things."
"So, do you go there often?"
"That's not. This is the fourth time today. But the previous few times were taken by Uncle Yang."
"Uncle Yang?" Li Hao sat down
I whispered softly afterwards, this surname is rare.
Qianda Plaza is indeed not too far from Ghost Market, and it is within a 20-minute drive.
Before seeing the ghost market, both Li Hao and Sun Jing agreed that the so-called ghost market must be a mysterious place where everyone was wearing flashlights, wearing coats, and a few even wore masks, completely wrapped themselves up and quietly engaged in various transactions. But unexpectedly, after arriving at the ghost market, they found that it was brightly lit, crowded with people, and it felt even more lively than Qianda Plaza just now, which surprised the two of them.
"Is this the ghost market?" Li Hao said in a daze, "If I had known, it would be great if we could come here directly? Look here, except for the cinema, there are everything you eat and play!"
After hearing this, Sun Jing nodded with some agreement.
"Idiot! I have told you so many times. The ghost market is open in the early morning every day, and it is a wholesale market for vegetables and fruits during the day." Hu Changchang finally seized the opportunity to mock Li Hao, "Come here directly? Do you want to buy fruits or buy vegetables? Humph!"
"Oh, Hu Changchang, do you still remember which shop it was?" This time Li Hao did not choke her back, but instead asked nervously.
"Well... I just vaguely remember that the owner of the shop was a bald man, and there was a delicious barbecue shop diagonally opposite his shop... Let's do it, in a while, the three of us will look for it separately."
"That's all," Li Hao thought for a moment and nodded helplessly, "You two girls are in the same group, I am in the same group. Let's take action separately. If anyone finds it first, call the others..."
...
Li Hao's current spiritual consciousness can cover the surrounding radius of about 30 meters.
While silently sensing the spiritual energy, he carefully checked all the places that the spiritual consciousness could cover. The market said it was not big. After a few rounds and turns, Li Hao basically searched the entire market, but found nothing. Just when Li Hao was no longer hoping, Hu Changchang called over and said that he had found the store and asked him to go there quickly.
Although Li Hao already knew that this trip to the ghost market must have been in vain, he could not let Hu Changchang and the others see anything. He could only pretend to be excited and rushed to the place she was talking about.
...
"Damn monkey, I'm here!" Hu Changchang saw Li Hao and excitedly met him from a distance, "Look, it's this shop. I searched for a long time before I found it! It was sold to me by the bald boss inside."
"Do you love come? I'll go! The name of this shop is quite unique!" Li Hao followed the direction Hu Changchang said, looked up slightly, and saw the plaque on the shop at a glance, and immediately laughed, "Well, why are you the only one? Where is my sister? Are you in the shop?"
"Oh, she went to buy candied haws for us. I was afraid you wouldn't find them, so I stayed here to wait for you." Hu Changchang looked greedy, "You don't know, there are so many delicious foods in the ghost market. After you finish reading them later, remember to take Sister Sun and me to eat!"
