The three of them flew to the mouth of the ghost cry. From a distance, they heard the wind sound like howling ghosts and wolves. When they landed at the mouth of the narrow canyon, they couldn't stand still. The strong wind roared out of the valley. There were no tall trees here, only meat.
Thick and sturdy low shrubs grow close to the soil.
Liu Qinghuan used a gravity technique to help him fall steadily to the ground, and asked Yan Hua: "Is the wind here so strong all year round?"
Yan Hua had just comforted Hao Lele, and after hearing this, he looked into the canyon: "It's my first time here, but it shouldn't be this big, right? Didn't it say that the wind would be at its strongest before the opening of Tainan Land? It might be this
reason."
The three of them observed the valley entrance for a while. Liu Qinghuan said: "I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to go in now. Let's inquire first. I heard that there is a small town nearby where immortal cultivators gather?"
Lele jumped over quickly. As long as she didn't enter the valley immediately, she was willing to do anything: "It's a dozen miles to the south. I'm exhausted after driving for three months. Let's go there to take a rest?"
Because Guiweikou is one of the several exits from Damochuan to Tainan, monks have been coming and going here for many years, and a small town has gradually been formed nearby for monks to rest, trade, etc.
Liu Qinghuan and the others soon arrived at the town, and were really shocked by the lively scene in front of them.
The town is not small, but it is very simple. Various houses are built together in a mess, and many of them seem to be temporary structures. Except for a long street that is barely wider in the middle, there is nothing else.
planning.
"Fangfang Dan, the Fangfang Dan that has just been released, twenty spiritual stones each, there are discounts for large quantities, don't miss it if you pass by."
"Fellow Taoist, look at this wind-sheltering jade pendant. As long as you put it on, you will be fine even if you enter Tainan now! Take the five hundred spiritual stones!"
"Come on, come on, the latest map of Ghost Crying Valley! There are many side roads in the valley, so you won't get lost if you have a map."
As soon as we entered the town, we saw that both sides of the long street were lined with various simple stalls, the sounds of hawking were heard one after another, and there were even more monks wandering around the street.
"Oh, it turns out it's so fun here!" Lele swept away the gloomy mood before, looking around with clear eyes, taking advantage of his small body and lightness to sneak in and out of the crowd.
"Junior sister, junior sister!" Yan Hua quickly followed.
Liu Qinghuan didn't want to follow them into the cave, so she shouted, "Let's meet at the biggest building in the town in the evening."
I don’t know if they heard it or not, but the two of them disappeared in the crowd of people in an instant.
Liu Qinghuan laughed and shook his head, and slowly walked to the stall selling maps and jade slips. There were many people gathered in front of the stall, and they were haggling.
"You sell a broken map for 30 spirit stones? Are you crazy about money?"
"That's right, Chen Xinglou only sells ten spiritual stones. You are too shady."
"It's just a canyon. I can walk across it with my eyes closed. I want Mao's map, but I won't buy it!"
The curses continued for a while. The seller of the jade slips was a middle-aged man with a conceited look and a big mouth. He could not tell the difference in cultivation. He calmly held his hands and said: "That fellow Taoist who said that you can pass the cries of ghosts with your eyes closed."
, I’m not exaggerating, you will definitely get lost if you enter the valley no more than ten miles away! There are so many dead ends in the canyon that you may end up entering a monster’s lair at any time.”
Someone retorted: "You are just alarmist. How can it be so dangerous to cry like a ghost?"
The middle-aged man continued without batting an eyelid: "I drew this jade slip piece by piece after I went to Guiwen several times, was blown to my core by the strong wind, and encountered several life-threatening dangers.
.Not to mention thirty spiritual stones, even fifty spiritual stones, I think it’s too cheap!”
"Hey! Who knows whether what you said is true or false!" Some people didn't take the bait at all.
"You kid!" The man finally got angry. A circle of spiritual power exploded from his body. He raised his hand and took out a huge black hammer with sparkling light. He smashed it to the ground with a "bang" and pointed at the person who had spoken many times.
: "You're here to cause trouble, right? Come on, come on! I've never been afraid of anyone, Xiong Batian. If you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't buy it, get out of here!"
A late-stage foundation-building monk!
The man who kept finding trouble was only in the early stage of foundation building. He didn't dare to say a word anymore, so he slunk into the crowd and disappeared. Most of the others also dispersed in fear.
The middle-aged man held back his anger and spat: "What a bastard, you've wasted my time and energy! Don't let me see you again, or I'll beat you until I can't even recognize you!"
"Can I take a look first?" A voice sounded from the side, interrupting the middle-aged man's complaint.
The middle-aged man glared over and saw that this man had a handsome face. He was not the same person as before, so his expression brightened slightly: "You can look at him, but you can't look at him for too long."
Liu Qinghuan nodded, picked up a jade slip placed on a rag and put it between his eyebrows. Not to mention, the map inside was quite detailed, even the places where some large groups of monsters and beasts were found were clearly marked.
"I want it." He took out thirty spiritual stones, put them on the rags, and put away the jade slips.
"Thank you." The middle-aged man said to Liu Qinghuan, grinned again, and rolled up the rag neatly: "I finally understand, it is a waste of time to grind with others for dozens of spiritual stones!
If I don't want to serve you anymore, let those short-lived devils play with you."
Hearing this, Liu Qinghuan stretched out his hand to stop the middle-aged man: "Fellow Taoist, please be patient, let me ask you a question. I don't know what you mean by the short-lived ghost. Is there some fatal danger in the ghost's cry?"
The middle-aged man looked at him twice, and for the sake of the thirty spiritual stones, he still said: "Look at the map yourself, you are lucky!" After saying that, he didn't bother to say anything else, turned around and left.
Liu Qinghuan thought for a moment and decided to wait until he found a place to live and then take a good look at the map.
He looked around, then walked slowly along the long street, bought a bottle of parsnip pills, and found a recipe for parsnip pills in a small shop.
Most of the monks in this small town are Foundation Establishment and above monks. Occasionally, you can see Jindan and Nascent Soul monks flying into the town. As for the Qi training period, coming here is undoubtedly courting death.
After walking around for a while, there were more and more people on the street. Liu Qinghuan was really impatient to squeeze in with others, so he came to the tallest building in the town and saw three characters on the plaque: Chenxing Tower.
He glanced inside and saw that there were people coming and going inside, and it was even more crowded than outside. He didn't bother to go in, so he walked through Shenxing Tower and came to a row of houses at the back to find a tea shop. He finally found a quiet spot on the second floor.
.
While Liu Qinghuan was drinking tea, he heard the two people who had just sat down at the table next to him shout to the waiter: "Two hundred spiritual stones and a pot of spiritual tea, are you all crazy in this town?"
The waiter at the shop smiled and said: "Senior, there are too many people coming, and there is nothing we can do."
As soon as the waiter came downstairs, one of them complained: "This is simply robbing people naked."
The other person chuckled: "Just calm down. Tainan has only been opened once in more than 800 years. Normally, it's hard to see even a human hair here. How long will it take if I don't kill you now?"
"That's right. Look at the people on this street. The whole street is almost packed."
"In a few days, I'm afraid there will be more people coming here. Brother Qin, when do you think we will enter the valley?"
Liu Qinghuan slowly put down the tea cup, also wanting to hear what others planned.
The two people didn't shy away from speaking. Instead, they spoke louder and more authentically: "If you ask me, it would be better to gather a group of people and go in, so that everyone can take care of you. The terrain of Gui Crying Mouth is complicated, and if you get lost in it, you won't be able to get out.
