The old man's weak arm was placed on Yu Lie's shoulders, but Yu Lie was horrified.
Especially when he felt the irresistible suction force coming from the opponent's hand, he subconsciously thought: "Why is this animal trying to hurt me!"
boom!
Yu Lie suddenly felt his soul shaking, and was immediately pulled out of his body by the other party.
Fortunately, before he could yell or cast a spell to hit the opponent, another voice came out of the old man's mouth:
"Young man, don't panic. There is a dragon energy on one side, and the old man won't hurt you."
Yu Lie came back to his senses at this time, "he" looked around, and sure enough he found that the dragon aura was strong, and there was still a trace of dragon aura wrapped around his Yinshen, giving him a warm feeling, as if he was still in the physical body
Same as in.
But "he" lowered his head and looked at his own body, looking at each other.
He was indeed out of body.
Fortunately, as soon as Yu Lie's mind moved, he realized that the connection between himself and the physical body had not been severed. He only needed a thought to return to the physical body again.
However, despite this, Yu Lie was still shocked and broke out in a "cold sweat", feeling that his soul was chilling.
He was silent for a few breaths, then suppressed the fear in his heart and raised his hands to the old man in front of him: "Let the Taoist Master laugh."
The old man chuckled and said:
"Everyone who comes here without a parent reacts like this when nothing happens. Your kid's reaction is quite calm and composed."
The other party said a few words and immediately shouted:
"Now that you have come to your senses, quickly follow Pindao into the ghost market."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, his body changed again and turned into a ball of will-o'-the-wisp, flying towards the huge pile of tablets.
The tablet that Yu Lie had written on was also rolled up by the opponent, and then he found a gap at the base of the pile of tablets and inserted it at will.
"Come on, come on." The old man turned into a will-o'-the-wisp and danced in front of many tablets, saying: "You just need to get in through your tablet."
After saying that, the opponent's will-o'-the-wisp flickered again and flew to the top of the tablet pile.
"When you first become a Taoist, the location of the Yin Shen tablets is at this height. However, as your Tao practice skills accumulate, the position of the tablets will become higher and higher. Each higher level will have the benefit of a higher level.
.
My tablet is still up there, let’s go up first.”
After Yu Lie heard it, although he was a little confused, he roughly understood it.
The tablets in the hall must have been handwritten by all the Taoist officials in the palace, perhaps including Taoist priests above the Taoist officials.
There is a ranking of high and low, which is related to the Taoist's achievements in cultivation. As for Yu Lie, who had just become a Taoist, he was still just a young man, so naturally he could only be placed in the first hurdle. As his cultivation improved, Yin
The order of the God's tablets will go up step by step.
However, I still have no idea what the benefits of the Yin Shen tablets and the order of the tablets are.
Whoops, he turned into a will-o'-the-wisp, and the Yin Shen floated to his own memorial tablet. After a slight hesitation, he bravely jumped into his own tablet.
boom!
next moment.
Yu Lie's consciousness was shaken, and colorful scenes were circulating in his mind. He felt upside down again, as if he had followed the Dragon Boat Taoist and escaped into a wormhole a few days ago.
Fortunately, within a few breaths, he felt that he was guided by the dragon's energy. He fell down and came to an alley, and felt a down-to-earth feeling under his feet.
Yu Lie looked around at this time and immediately saw the dusty wall tiles. The light was dim, as if he had returned to the back alleys and dark streets of Blackwater Town, and there was fog everywhere, which obscured his vision.
Yu Lie probed out his spiritual consciousness, and the range of what he could see was also restricted. The range of what he could see was reduced by ten times or a hundred times. It was the same as his line of sight. He could only see a little more than four steps to his side.
At this time, a voice of surprise sounded from beside him: "He is indeed a young man with a good foundation, and his Yin Shen strength is very good. It is incomparable to the little guys who have just become Taoist priests."
A figure flashed past, it was the old man who was guiding the rest of the group in the Taoist courtyard.
The other party grabbed Yu Lie's Yin Shen and pulled him out of the alley, mumbling:
"Follow closely. A small Taoist like you has limited vision in the ghost market and cannot see very far. If you lose track of Pindao, you will be in a hurry. Don't blame Pindao for not doing his duty."
Yu Lie came back to his senses and exhaled. He found that his ghost spirit in Laoshizi Ghost Market really seemed to have a physical body and could still breathe.
After shouting several times, Yu Lie composed his mind and followed the old man without saying a word.
As soon as the two of them reached the entrance of the alley, the old man in front suddenly blocked the rest of the group and the two of them bumped into each other.
The other party shouted urgently: "Slow down, lest you get trampled to death. Otherwise, you will have to return to your physical body to recuperate for a long time before you can come in again."
Whoosh!
But a bare foot like a pillar suddenly fell from the mist above Yu Lie's head, then stepped on the open space in front of him, and walked past with a bang.
The remaining columns are still a foot or two away from being stepped on by the giant thing walking in the mist.
This scene was so frightening that Yu Lie broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't hold it in any longer. He whispered to the old man and asked: "Old Taoist Master, may I ask where this place is? The giant thing in the fog just now."
, what is it again?”
The old man replied: "Of course this is a ghost market. Didn't Pindao tell you before you came in?
However, only Taoists who have condensed the Yinshen here can escape here. As for the giant thing just now, it is also a Taoist who came to hang out in the ghost market, but its cultivation level is higher than yours. Judging from the figure, at least
He is also a high-ranking Taoist official, or maybe a Taoist priest."
The old man also muttered: "Pindao must not have led the wrong way. This street should be the boundary where the last Taoist priests hang out."
After walking a few more steps, when several figures, big or small, but similar in stature to the two of them, walked by, the old man said again:
"You're right, this is Qimu Street. The guy just now was probably bored, so he came here to hang out."
Yu Lie followed closely and asked the other party again, only to learn that in such ghost markets, Taoists only have Yin gods, and the size of Yin gods appear according to their magic power.
Therefore, the more profound the Taoist practice, the larger the form in the ghost market. The more solid the Taoist foundation, the more solid the form of the Yin Shen.
Among them, a seventh-grade Taoist priest and a sixth-grade Taoist priest live in the same room, and they are as big as a chicken or a duck and an ordinary person. The latter can trample the former half to death or to death if he is not careful.
Fortunately, due to the special nature of the ghost market, the Taoist's Yin Shen will not suffer serious damage when it breaks here, nor will the foundation be damaged. It will just be like being possessed by a nightmare, and it will suddenly return to the physical body and wake up, and then it will be delayed for seven days due to fatigue.
Once the "first seven" are over, the Taoist's ghost spirit will return to its original state, and he can wander around the ghost market again and trade.
When Yu Lie heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "It's okay, okay. It seems that although there are many restrictions and clear levels here, it is not a dangerous place."
And his eyes flickered, and he immediately realized how useful this realm could be!
Just the effect of the Yin Shen dispersing and not dying caused many thoughts to pop up in Yu Lie's mind.
Suddenly, the old man led Yu Lie to a stone house. From time to time, shouts and shouts could be heard in the house, and Taoist Yin Shen came out of the house one after another, with a mix of joy and worry on their faces.
"Here we are, this place is the most important area in the ghost market, but it is even more important than Chuan Gong Pavilion."
The old man couldn't wait to squeeze in with Yu Lie.
After entering, Yu Lie saw a circle of fence, and Taoist ghosts crowded in front of the fence, stretching their heads to look at the center.
There was no mist blocking the fence, but two ghostly figures were fighting, and spells from both sides were constantly blasting out.
Not long after, a scream rang out. Under the bombardment of the enemy's spells, the Yin Shen of one of them cracked inch by inch and dispersed into a ball of air.
Ding!
There was a sound of bells, and someone was sitting on the edge of the fence. There was an abacus on the table, and the abacus clicked on its own.
The other party held a small hammer, knocked on the copper bell on the wooden table, and shouted: "Number 13, number B, wins! I am willing to admit defeat and pay the money as soon as possible."
"Next game, number C, number thirty-six, will face number D, number sixty-seven! I'm sure I'll get it now!"
The fence here turned out to be a gambling and fighting place. The Taoist priests inside were like fighting cocks, biting and biting each other, and the onlookers around them were watching with scarlet eyes and shouting.
The old man who led the way came to the outside of the fence and rubbed his hands vigorously, as if he wanted to join in.
"This," Yu Lie looked around.
He looked at the crowded and dishonored Taoists around him, and he was really shocked.
After blinking subconsciously, Yu Lie confirmed that he had read correctly. The Taoists around him were all in the form of Yin gods, many of whom were taller than him and were real seventh-grade Taoist officials.
And these people in Dao City are all superiors. Even in Dao Palace, they are all seniors. But now they are like country women, watching the fun and gambling, which really makes Yu Lie
Surprised.
But the next moment, Yu Lie reacted.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the spectators watching the fight in the fence and the people jumping into the field. He saw some clues and immediately walked towards the crowd.
When the old man saw Yu Lie coming, he pointed his mouth toward the fence and said:
"Little guy, I'm not tricking you. Come here more often, it's far better than going to the Chuan Gong Pavilion to read the dead book and memorize the secrets."
The other party pointed at the two Taoists who had just appeared in the fence: "Look! Not only can you use your own magic here, but you will also have someone to fight with you for free. If you win, you can also earn some reward money."
Even if you don't play but just watch, you can learn from other people's fighting experience and exercise your eyesight.
Look at him in thousands of battles. From now on, when fighting with others, make sure you have a pair of good eyes. Regardless of whether you win or not, at least you know how to distinguish between strong and weak, and run away when you know it's time."
After saying that, the old man rubbed his fingers and chuckled: "Compared with boring reading and studying, gambling and fighting are undoubtedly more exciting and exciting! Don't you think so?"
Yu Lie raised his eyelids slightly and immediately nodded seriously, agreeing with what the old man said.
And he watched the gambling scene closely, with great interest in his eyes.
Because as the old man said, since Taoists will not die in the ghost market, if they participate in such gambling battles, they can exercise their fighting ability, and by watching such gambling battles, they can increase their eyesight. Both are beneficial.
Even if you are a Taoist who is not good at fighting, as long as you bite the bullet and hang out more, your character will change from a chicken or a duck to a tiger or a leopard.
Although Yu Lie thinks that his character is quite good and he is by no means bad at fighting, he is also cautious and cherishes his life very much.
Previously, unless he was forced to do so, or had an advantage and could overwhelm others with his magical power, he basically would not choose to fight with others, and he did not have much experience in fighting.
Now that there is a ghost market, where he can fight unscrupulously, it undoubtedly provides him with the best training place!
The joy in Yu Lie's eyes echoed the old man's words:
"It's exactly what the old Taoist said! Just for gambling and fighting, this ghost market is a treasure. I wish I could have come earlier."
"Haha." The old man said with a smile: "A little earlier, you haven't condensed the Yin Shen yet, how could you come here?"
As they talked, the two looked around in a cockfight-like place. The old man suddenly woke up and said:
"Although this place is nice, there are other realms in the ghost market that I need to talk to you about."
This person pulled Yu Lie out from the crowd and walked forward along the street.
After a while, the two passed by a stone house again. At the door of the stone house, Taoists with excited expressions were also coming in and out. There were also shouts and shouts in the house. It was evident that it was also a gambling and fighting place.
It's just that this stone house is larger than the previous one, and the figures of the Taoists entering and exiting are also larger, which shows that the Taoist practice is deeper.
The old man did not pull Yu Lie in anymore, but continued to walk forward.
A busy street of street stalls appeared in Yu Lie's field of vision, with dots of will-o'-the-wisps, and items placed on the stalls one after another, including elixirs, talismans, flesh and blood, and various magical instruments, which were no different from the stalls in the outside world.
The old man said: "The things on the stall are made of dragon energy and are not real objects. However, after you have negotiated with the stall owner and left the delivery address, the other party will naturally send an errand to deliver it to your house."
After walking a few steps, I saw that instead of stalls, there were people on the ground.
Taoists were sitting cross-legged and meditating, floating next to a square wooden sign.
These wooden signs read:
"I can make alchemy and burn furnaces, get medicines and materials, and repair formations. I can do it all. The skills are excellent and the price is low."
"Fifteen years of experience in formation formation, and I have yet to get any bad reviews, even if I hire you. P.S. Please bring your own formation materials."
"I have been refining swords for sixty years, and ten kendo spells have been certified by the Dao Palace. Professor Wuyou!"...
Others took the initiative to call out to Yu Lie: "Free alchemy, no penny will be charged. Fellow Taoists who are passing by, don't miss it!"
All kinds of boastful and greeting words flashed in front of the two people, too numerous to mention.
Yu Lie's eyes swept over these Taoists one by one, and he was suddenly surprised.
In particular, he found that people came up from time to time and after communicating with the Taoist who posted the sign, the two people did not leave their contact information, but left together and disappeared into a dark alley.
