If Bailu City is a city built in the sun, then the ghost city is the dark side buried deep in the darkness.
Here, Wu Chong saw 'crops' being sold.
I saw assassination auctions, organ research, hand and foot transplants and other shady businesses. These are fairly common, and there are many 'accessories' sold behind them. The selling process is even more inhumane, and each living person is treated as a prop by them.
Selling and selling, a buyer with a broken arm selects an arm he is satisfied with in the store. Once the transaction is successful, the seller will cut off a living arm in front of him and reattach it to him.
The method of utilizing demonic power is much smarter than it appears on the surface.
Rebirth of a broken arm is a common business, and there are others, such as face replacement, life replacement, etc.
There are special "auxiliary immortals" here. These immortals are not good at fighting, but they are definitely the best in specific fields.
Here, as long as you can afford it, there's nothing you can't buy.
Even if it’s a human life, it will be renewed for you after you have spent enough money! It is worth mentioning that the money collected by the ghost market is different from the money issued by major cities outside. The ghost market collects universal banknotes, which is the original money.
The silver note Wu Chong 'picked up' when he was with the Tiehe Gang. Like the silver notes earned later in Bailu City, they are not recognized in the ghost market and can only be used in a small area.
"Is there any difference here?"
Wu Chong mingled among the crowd and carefully observed the rules here.
Through extrapolation from these details, he gained a clearer understanding of the city in the sun.
The troubled times may not be as simple as what those outside see.
"books?"
Wu Chong stopped in front of a stall.
He was a little surprised, he didn't expect to see such a serious business in this place.
"What I have here are all secret books and unique books. I have books banned from the three major fairy islands."
The book seller is actually a woman.
Her voice sounded like she was young. Although she had tried hard to hide her features, Wu Chong still noticed.
"I want Penglai's demon power, do you have it?"
Wu Chong tried to ask casually.
"have!"
"What about the Abbot Xiandao and Yingzhou Xiandao?"
"Yes."
The woman found three books from the stack of books, which were sealed with demon power. However, from the aura on them and the free text on the first page, it can be seen that these books are genuine!
"Three ghost coins per book, nine coins in total."
Ghost money is the common currency in the ghost market. Its value is higher than the general silver notes outside. If you want to exchange it, you need 100,000 taels of general silver notes to exchange for one ghost coin. When Wu Chong was in the Tiehe Gang,
, he shared a stack of silver notes with Daniel, which amounted to about one hundred thousand taels. In other words, he was a 'rich man' who had a ghost coin in his possession.
"Are there any others? Cheaper ones."
Wu Chong looked at the lone copy in the woman's hand and shed tears of poverty.
He originally thought he was a rich man with hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, but he found out after he went to the ghost market. The banknote he took was specifically Zimbabwean currency!
The amount is huge, and the purchasing power is simply beyond comprehension. This is the capital he brought over from the Tiehe Gang. The money earned here in Bailu City is probably not even currency, it is like meal tickets issued by a local canteen.
You can buy food in that local canteen, but outside that local canteen, no one will recognize you.
"This only requires one ghost coin."
As if she noticed Wu Chong's embarrassment, the woman found another book in the pile of books.
"Unofficial History of Kyushu?"
Wu Chong looked at the tattered book and looked at the female stall owner suspiciously.
This thing dares to sell for a hundred thousand taels, this woman must be crazy! I bought a lot of them at the Bailu City bookstall outside, five coppers each, and they are still brand new.
"This is not a popular book from the outside. It contains many forbidden secrets of the three great immortals."
The female stall owner explained.
It seems that in order to persuade Wu Chong, she specially removed the demon power ban on the book and turned over some contents to Wu Chong.
'In the seventh year of the Kyushu Calendar, a disaster came from the sky, unknown beings fell from the void, and the world was polluted.'
'In the tenth year of the Kyushu Calendar, the Human Emperor was born. With his great perseverance and great wisdom, he easily changed the world's martial arts and sought a glimmer of hope for mankind. The world respected him and respected the Renhuang family as the 'immortals'.'
‘In the sixteenth year of the Kyushu Calendar, the emperor fell under the influence of demons and evil spirits. In the same year, the empire collapsed and the imperial power fell away.’
"At that time, there were Penglai, abbot, and Yingzhou who relied on the evil spirits to tear down the Renhuang Temple, rebuild the high position, and steal the achievements. So far, the immortals have been in different places, and the immortals are no longer immortals..."
Wu Chong looked at the information recorded in the unofficial history and suddenly understood a lot of things.
At the same time, I was very curious about the book in the woman's hand.
"Bought it!"
After paying the money, Wu Chong took the Unofficial History of Kyushu from the female stall owner and became a little curious about the identity of the female stall owner.
How did she get this kind of book that has been blocked by the three immortal islands outside? The outside world is now obviously dominated by the three immortal islands, and all the books are praising their greatness and slightly powerful people.
All the knowledge they came into contact with was recorded in this way. Of course, people like the big guys from the Tiehe Gang were not within the scope of knowledge dissemination at first. The Kuhaha at the bottom were still worrying about food and clothing, so how could they bother to learn.
"Want to know my identity? Twenty ghost coins."
When the female stall owner saw that Wu Chong had not left, she immediately understood what he was thinking.
"Can this also be sold?"
"You can buy anything in the ghost market! As long as you have enough ghost coins, you can buy me there. But you probably can't afford this price."
The female stall owner spoke calmly about selling herself.
Wu Chong collected the books and left the stall.
He took note of this woman's aura. If his guess was correct, this woman should be from the faction that lost the struggle.
The three fairy islands are the winners.
The lineage of the Human Emperor is naturally a loser.
As a loser, how could it be possible to watch the three major fairy islands whitewash themselves and tamper with history.
Wu Chong remembered that when he first arrived in this world, Daniel had said that the current situation of the royal family in this world was as miserable as a vegetable garden. Any master could walk in there and there was no dignity left. Now it seems that the royal family is as miserable as a vegetable garden.
Majesty is not lost in a day. In history, the royal family once served as the common ruler of the world and had the most powerful power in the world.
But it failed later.
Just like the Zhou royal family, there is only one status left.
After leaving the place where the female stall owner was, Wu Chong saw several interesting things, such as wooden figures similar to the wooden old man who carried him across the river. There was a shop called Shumen that had several similar wooden figures.
Although not as agile as the old man, he can still do some daily things.
"Just this one."
Wu Chong walked to the front of the largest shop in the ghost market and touched the box in his arms.
To get rid of a hot potato, you must find a store that can withstand the pressure.
