Xiao Yu doesn't know what kind of currency is used here yet, but it should be similar to Yangshi. At least gold is a hard currency.
However, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble to the villagers, he still planned to stay here.
This city is not as majestic as Xiao Yu thought. With its low walls and lazy city guards, it is hard for people to think that this place can also be called a city!
Although it doesn't look like a city, it does look similar to the ancient city in the past. There are four gates in the southeast, southeast and northwest, and under each gate, there are many people surrounding it.
It can be seen from this that this is indeed the largest place around.
The middle-aged man kept his daughter in his arms and sat on the ground without speaking, wondering what he was thinking.
Maybe Xiao Yu's words today moved him, or maybe it was to say goodbye for the last time.
"Uncle, this girl is smart. When I return to the village, I want to teach her some skills."
Xiao Yu gave the man a shot of cardiotonic in order to dispel his worries.
"Does the Immortal Chief really mean what he said?"
After hearing Xiao Yu's words, the man's eyes lit up and his body tensed up.
He really wants to sell his daughter to a wealthy family to be a maid, but once she joins a wealthy family, she will never be able to see him again for the rest of his life. This may be the fate of children from poor families!
Xiao Yu's words at noon today made him hesitate, and he didn't know what to do at this time.
Now if the immortal really teaches his daughter his skills, then he doesn't have to worry at all.
"I will teach her some skills, but how much she can understand depends on her own awareness.
For such a young child, even if you send her to a wealthy family, she will only be a servant for the rest of her life and will never get ahead!"
Xiao Yu said with a reminder.
"this……"
After being pointed out by Xiao Yu, the man suddenly started sweating profusely. This was something he only knew. How could the other party do it?
"I understand, thank you for your advice!"
The man let out a long breath, and his face felt relieved for a moment.
"Just rest and don't worry about me. I will come back naturally at dawn."
After giving the other party a reassurance, Xiao Yu turned around and walked towards the woods again.
"yes……"
The man hurriedly agreed, then hugged the two children with a rare smile on his face.
There are woods outside the city. Such a place is a good place for fighting and killing, but this woods is extremely quiet.
There is a full moon in the sky, with a touch of fog. Experienced farmers all know that the moon will bring white fog, the sky will change, and the rain will come and stop every now and then!
Therefore, Xiao Yu calculated that there will be rain at 7 o'clock tomorrow, but it will not be very heavy and will stop in the afternoon.
So during this time, he needs to figure out some things, and it is best to find a place for Qinglong and others to stay.
"Earth Escape...Ji!"
A voice as thin as a gossamer came out, and Xiao Yu disappeared instantly.
The city is not very spacious. After all, there are only more than 2,000 people. Most of the houses are made of mud. They are connected in rows and look relatively neat.
There are also stone houses in the city, but they are very few.
Xiao Yu walked out of an alley, naturally not attracting the attention of outsiders.
There were many red lanterns hanging on the street, which looked particularly festive. People in robes and animal skins walked around from time to time, doing their own business.
But those are not people, but ghosts.
Yes, there are no living people doing business on the street, they are all ghosts.
It's just that these ghosts are just like normal people. If Xiao Yu didn't have some skills, he might still be deceived by them.
"Strange, is this city filled with ghosts?
Why is there no one alive?”
Xiao Yu's appearance immediately attracted the attention of those doing business.
Because in the eyes of Yinhun, Xiao Yu is now a thing that exudes light and heat, which is both tempting and threatening to them.
The boundary-crossing talisman has long since expired, and the things the judge gave him have no effect here, so the ghost can spot him at a glance.
Xiao Yu glanced around, then bowed his hands to those ghosts as a greeting.
Then he wandered around inside like no one else was around.
"A living person dares to visit the ghost market at night. He seems to have some support."
An old man sat cross-legged on the ground, with a bamboo basket beside him with a long flag on it, and a black Tai Chi in front of him.
The long black flag reads: Know life and death, and know the misfortunes and blessings of ghosts and ghosts.
Judging from the old man's attire, he looks like a fortune teller, and he was probably a Taoist priest when he was alive.
"He should know about the ghost building!"
Xiao Yu looked the old man up and down for a while, then walked up.
"Senior is well..."
Xiao Yu bowed his hand to the other party, and then sat directly in front of him.
"Haha, does it count as yang longevity or yin virtue?"
The old man looked at Xiao Yu and was not surprised, but laughed.
"The first is not counted as yang longevity, the second is not counted as yin virtue.
I just want to inquire about the ghost building from my senior, and I hope you can tell me."
Xiao Yu looked at the other party and said calmly.
"The Ghost Tower is the place where our ghosts are haunted. Where are you asking? Are you going to attend the Ghost Tower Centenary Ceremony?"
The old man seemed a little surprised, but he still stroked his beard and said.
"Yes, senior, do you know how far away the Ghost Tower is from here?"
Hearing that the other party knew about Ghost Tower, Xiao Yu immediately said.
"Haha, I heard that a group of Taoist monks came to Yangshi recently. Are you from Yangshi?"
The old man did not answer Xiao Yu directly, but told another thing that Xiao Yu was concerned about.
"Senior is really discerning, I admire him."
Xiao Yu gave the other party a bow, then looked at the other party, waiting for his next words.
"This place is still three thousand miles away from the Ghost Tower, passing through ten mortal cities.
You can't fly on the road, you can only walk, otherwise even if you get to the ghost building, you won't be able to enter.
The ghost building will be opened in three days. It will be a grand ceremony for our ghost clan. Fairies, ghosts and demons will all participate at that time. You still have time to go now."
The old man was very enthusiastic and directly told Xiao Yu the location of the ghost building.
"Hey, who are you? What are you doing sneakily?"
Just when Xiao Yu was listening to the old man talking, a man's voice sounded, and then he heard a series of rapid footsteps heading this way.
Xiao Yu looked back and saw that it was a group of patrolling soldiers walking towards him.
"You're so talkative. Can't you see that there are so many people?"
Xiao Yu was a little annoyed and pointed at a circle of ghosts around him, but those people still looked like idiots.
"Haha, how can mortal eyes see us? Don't waste your breath."
After the old man finished speaking, he waved his hand, and saw a ghostly energy flying out, and the men walked away again like a demonic barrier.
"This place is the same as the Yang World. During the day, it is the domain of living people, and at night, it is the world of ghosts.
Okay, you asked so many questions, let me calculate how much it costs for you."
After the old man finished speaking, he took out an abacus from the bamboo basket, flipped it twice, and then stretched out three fingers.
"Thirty thousand merit points, settled in one go."
This is the first time Xiao Yu has heard that ghost fortune telling is based on merit points!
"What are you talking about? Why don't you grab thirty thousand merit points?"
Xiao Yu almost jumped up when he thought of 30,000 merit points. This old man was not an ordinary black man.
"What, you want to default on your debt?"
Seeing that Xiao Yu was a little unhappy, the old man couldn't help but darken his face.
