"Pretend to be a ghost!" Shu Luoyi said disdainfully.
"This is not a pretense." The old beggar waved his hand quickly, "Old man, I am telling you the truth. For the sake of these big copper coins, I advise you not to go in."
"Is there any other news?" Yu Chang asked quickly.
The old beggar chuckled and lowered his voice even more.
"You guys...be careful." He pointed to the top of his head, said no more, and quickly turned around and left.
The three of them didn't understand what he meant. Pointing to the top of their head, maybe it meant the higher authorities, the government, or some other big force?
"Are you still going in?" Yu Chang looked at Shu Luoyi.
"Come in!" The latter nodded affirmatively.
Lin Xin followed them without saying a word, turned around and walked towards Huang Ji Clothing Store.
After walking through the door of Huangji Clothing Store, Lin Xin felt a cold air coming towards him.
The store is densely packed with clothes of all colors. The walls, floor, ceiling, wherever there is a gap, there are clothes everywhere you look.
Yellow skirts, white vests, gray and white robes, hats and shawls, hung with hooks and threads, all kinds of clothes can be found here.
"Take off these clothes first." Shu Luoyi drew out his sword and slashed at the nearest set of clothes.
With a pop, a large puff of white ash suddenly rose up.
The three of them hurriedly exited the store, looking at large swaths of dust spreading everywhere inside.
Cough cough cough...
Shu Luoyi couldn't hide away and choked on several mouthfuls of dust. She felt nauseated and coughed loudly.
"Are you okay?" Yu Chang covered his mouth and nose and asked, "How about we burn this place down?!"
"How can we get clues if it's burned?" Shu Luoyi rolled his eyes at him.
Lin Xin, however, did not pay attention to what the two of them were saying, but carefully looked at the somewhat dark clothing store.
It was silent inside, there was no sound, and not even a spider web could be seen in the corner. A faint musk-like smell could be smelled in the nose, but it was mixed with a strong smell of dust.
He took out a Resentment Talisman and activated it. It didn't burn. Obviously there was no resentment here.
"Let's go, let's be careful this time." Shu Luoyi waited until the dust dispersed before saying.
The three of them entered the store again.
Following a small gap left between the clothes, the three of them, Yu Chang, volunteered to walk in the front, Shu Luoyi in the middle, and Lin Xin at the end.
At this time, the sky was getting darker and darker, and it was almost night. The clothing store became even darker, and the visible distance was no more than two meters.
Lin Xin looked around and saw densely packed sets of clothes hanging neatly on both sides. It looked as if they had been made for a long time and were covered with thick dust.
There is almost no light in front, only a faint ray of light comes from the door behind you.
Cha.
Yu Chang lit up a candle in his hand. He put the dim candlelight into a white lantern and carried it with his hand.
"I found a lantern in the corner, which I can use just in time." He turned back and smiled.
"Why is this place so dark?" Shu Luoyi complained. He held a high-level resentment charm in his hand, ready to activate it at any time.
"Be careful." Lin Xin said softly. "It's best not to separate us here. I feel a little bad."
"That's for sure." Shu Luoyi nodded.
The clothing store was not very big, and a light blue light soon appeared in front of it. It was the light transmitted from the side door. It fell on the ground and reflected eye-catchingly on a piece of blue satin.
The three of them walked out of the side door. It was already dark outside, with only a little blue light shining from the sky. It was almost night.
call....
Lin Xin was walking at the end and suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind him. He turned around and glanced.
I saw a woman in white clothes standing in the vague darkness at the end of the aisle I walked through, like a Peking Opera opera singer, with her hands hanging to the right, dragging her long white sleeves.
"who!"
Lin Xin shouted sharply.
He saw that the woman's body remained motionless, but her whole body automatically moved towards the pile of clothes on the right side.
Shu Luoyi and Yu Chang quickly turned around and looked in the direction of Lin Xin's line of sight, but saw nothing.
"Sure enough, it appeared!" Although Shu Luoyi didn't see anything, he quickly flicked the high-level resentment talisman.
Sure enough, the talisman suddenly burst into flames.
"Chase! Remember, we must never separate!"
Lin Xin drew his sword and nodded, then turned around and chased after him.
After a few steps, he landed at the spot where the woman was. A dark and dark corridor appeared among the dense pile of clothes on the left side.
"There was obviously no aisle just now!" Lin Xin clearly remembered that there was no aisle here just now, and it was all blocked by heavy clothes.
"Go in and take a look." Shu Luoyi nodded towards him.
Lin Xin held up his sword and asked Yu Chang to hold the lantern for him, then walked into the aisle first.
There are mostly white clothes hanging on both sides of the corridor. In some places, there are many shoes, hairpins and other things worn by opera singers scattered around.
Snapped.
Suddenly there was another soft sound behind the three of them, as if someone had stepped on something.
"Who?" Shu Luoyi's expression changed, and he suddenly lifted the paper bag in his hand. The six-winged bees inside were hitting the paper bag crazily, making a snapping sound.
"We have a clue!" Her eyes showed a look of joy, she drew her sword and chased after the two of them without waiting.
"Wait for me." Yu Chang hurriedly followed.
Lin Xin had some trouble holding the lantern and wanted to follow him. Just as he turned around, he felt that the lantern was suddenly blocked by something.
He looked back and saw that there was nothing in front of him. There was nothing around the lantern, and there was nothing that could block it.
But after such a delay, when he looked back again, he could no longer see the shadow of the two of them.
"what happened!?"
He became more and more alert, quickly inserted the long sword back, and gently held the hilt of the Yanyang Talisman Sword behind him with his right hand.
hiss....
The sword blade was slowly pulled out, and the black cloth on it was removed in circles.
There are slight cracks on the surface of the Talisman Sword, but it can still be used in full condition several times.
Lin Xin held the Yanyang Talisman tightly and listened carefully to the sounds around him, but the two people who had just left a few steps away could not even hear the footsteps at this time.
Putting the lantern on the ground, Lin Xin took out a small stack of resentment charms from the bag and flicked it.
The resentment talisman suddenly began to slowly burn.
There are more than a dozen resentment talismans in this stack, and the burning of each one is enough to last for a long time.
Carefully holding the talisman between his fingers, Lin Xin lifted the white lantern again.
He began to back away slowly, looking around cautiously.
The white clothes hanging on both sides were very close together, and the fluttering clothes seemed like someone might rush in at any time, without any ability to stop them.
But trouble occurred.
No matter how much he retreated, the clothing aisle behind him seemed to become very long and he could not retreat to the end.
Lin Xin put down the lantern again and took out another poison-avoiding talisman. As soon as he injected the inner energy, he saw the poison-avoiding talisman instantly burning into black ash.
"snort."
Lin Xin groaned, feeling as if his chest had been hit hard by something.
His eyes quickly began to blur, and dense white dots appeared in his field of vision.
He quickly took out another stack of poison-avoiding charms, each one instantly burned into white ash as soon as the inner energy was injected into it.
After more than a dozen were burned and two were left in his hand, the white spots in Lin Xin's eyes slowly dissipated.
Only then did he realize with shock that he had already stood at the side door on the right side of the store without knowing when.
"That kind of poison again!?" He was startled, but he quickly calmed down. The Yanyang Talisman Sword was in his hand, slowly injecting a trace of inner energy.
Suddenly a warm current surrounded the surroundings. The large number of small Yanyang formations on the Yanyang Talisman Sword had an evil-proof effect, which was different from the simple high-temperature heat flow of the Wuyan Sword Technique. The large amount of evil-proof energy in this place could just come in handy.
"Junior Sister Shu! Yu Chang!"
Lin Xin simply shouted.
The voice echoed slowly in the clothing store, but there was no response at all.
"Junior sister Shu!" Lin Xin stood at the side door and watched the surroundings vigilantly.
There was no movement at all.
His eyes narrowed even more, and he took a few steps back and left the clothing store. He took out a whistle-like thing from his clothes, put it in his mouth and blew it.
Not long after, more than a dozen strong Peacock Gate guards rushed in from the side alley of Huangji Clothing Store.
Wang Meng, who took the lead, had half of his shiny muscles exposed, his clothes were hanging down, and he had a big gold ring hanging on his ear. He looked extremely fierce.
Lin Xin threw the lantern aside and looked at Huang Ji Clothing Store in front of him.
"Surround this shop for me!"
He said coldly.
"Be careful not to go in."
"Yes!" Fifteen large and well-trained men responded loudly, and they dispersed in a well-trained manner to directly surround Huangji Clothing Store from both sides.
Lin Xin thrust back the Yanyang Talisman Sword with his backhand and stood coldly in front of the side door waiting.
This clothing store is only so big. If he couldn't do it, where else could Shu Luoyi and Yu Chang be abducted.
"Damn Xipi, I heard that this shabby shop is famous for its evil ways. Why would you think of coming here?"
"I haven't even finished eating the red oil rice noodle, why are you so verbose?"
"You two are the only ones who talk a lot. We can do whatever the young master tells us to do. What if we burn down this shabby shop?"
"I'm pissed off. I'll call a hundred or eighty brothers tomorrow. Each one of them will take a piss and rush it into the store! Hehehehe..."
A group of strong men were obviously still eating and drinking when Lin Xin called them over with a whistle, and they were all a little angry. They surrounded them, but they were still yelling uncleanly.
Lin Xin stood at the side door with a cold face, saying nothing and motionless.
The lantern was placed on the steps next to it, and the dim firelight flickered.
Lin Xin's eyes were fixed on the clothing store. People were surrounding him. As long as someone came out of it, someone would report him immediately. He wanted to take a closer look this time to see what kind of trick was going on in this store.
After waiting for about half an hour, a group of strong men became impatient.
Lin Xin looked towards the store. There was a little light in the store just now, but now there was no light at all.
