Chapter 8, Ghost City

"Peach tree branch?" Chen Hongyu injected a magic power into the owner of the branch, and immediately felt the tenacity of the branch and the majestic life essence in it.

This branch probably only needs a simple sacrifice to become an excellent third-level high-grade magic weapon.

At the same time, a message came from inside the peach branch.

First there was a burst of laughter like silver bells, and then the voice of the owner of the ghost market: "Little Taoist priest, I have offended many people before, so this piece of peach wood will be regarded as an apology to the slave family."

"It seems that the owner of the ghost market still understands the ways of the world!" Chen Hongyu smiled and put away the peach tree branches.

Is he the kind of person who cares about everything?

Of course not, the owner of the ghost market probably just wanted to test the strength of his partner, and what he did before was just a friendly discussion between the two.

Even without this peach tree, he would not take this matter to heart.

After putting the Red Cloud Sword back into its pouch, Chen Hongyu sighed.

With a sweep of his spiritual consciousness, he could see a man and a woman sleeping soundly in the hall.

It's okay that the two people were isolated by the ghost market's lord before.

Later, when he fought against the Lord of the Ghost Market, the barrier between the two bedrooms disappeared.

However, these two people pretended not to know and did not dare to come out.

However, this is human nature. The two of them are two foundation-building monks fighting. Once the two of them are accidentally involved, they will be injured easily, and their participation in the battle will not be of much use.

Shaking his head, Chen Hongyu returned to the main hall and continued to read books.

After a few more hours, Yan Tiebin and Min Zhilaodao finally "woke up."

"Brother Ning, you have been reading books?" Yan Tiebin's eyes widened with surprise.

Seeing his exaggerated acting skills, Chen Hongyu nodded helplessly.

Yan Tiebin didn't blush. He looked at the mist outside and said, "At this time, the ghost market has opened. Brother Ning and Taoist Min, do you want to go together?"

"Of course you can't ask for it!" Old Min Zhi said with a smile.

The ghost market is a mixed bag, and there are often evil spirits hurting people, or monks taking advantage of others.

But he is now staying with Chen Hongyu, and since he is very strong, he is naturally not too afraid of this.

But Yan Tiebin was from the Yan family in Dongling, so he couldn't miss the opportunity to make friends, so he happily agreed.

Anyway, that man probably wouldn't refuse.

After extinguishing the fire, the group of people walked towards the depths of the Baiyunguan ruins together.

Several people did not stop at the ruins, but walked all the way to the back of the Baiyunguan ruins along the path in the ruins.

Along the way, Chen Hongyu could notice that the aura around him was getting stronger and stronger, but the unique cold aura of the ghost was also getting stronger.

After walking for several miles, I heard the sound of gurgling water in front of me, and I could see conspicuous lights in the distance.

Not long after, a river six to seven feet in size appeared in front of us.

Above the river, a decaying single-plank bridge stands here.

"Is this the Baiyun River you mentioned earlier?" Chen Hongyu asked.

"This is right here!" Old Taoist Min Zhi nodded, "This Baiyun River is a branch of Lingshui River, passing by Baiyun Temple. It used to be the place where water was obtained when Baiyun Temple was at its peak.

I know I lived here for several years in the past.

Just a few months after leaving, Baiyun Temple suffered a great disaster, including some practitioners who lived and practiced beside the Baiyun River."

Speaking of this, Min Zhi had a look of fear and joy on his face.

Hearing this, Chen Hongyu looked around carefully and could see the remaining traces of the hut.

Moreover, the Lord of the River under this decaying wooden bridge also has a strong residual Yin Qi.

There is a water ghost waiting here, hoping to attract a few mortals who have entered by mistake to serve as scapegoats.

At this time, I felt the auras of Chen Hongyu and others early, and they were far away, leaving only a little aura left.

While they were talking, several people had already crossed the wooden bridge and found themselves in a dense grove.

After walking hundreds of steps through the dense forest, Chen Hongyu felt suddenly enlightened.

What should have been a dark and silent mountain forest now turned out to be a brightly lit market.

The market was extremely noisy as monks, ghosts and goblins came and went.

Moreover, although it is autumn and winter at this time, peach trees stand all over the city, and peach blossoms are blooming on the branches.

The scenery during this period was really charming.

"I didn't expect that this desolate mountain would still have such scenery."

In the market, the ground is paved with bluestone, and there are many shops and lofts on both sides.

There was a "crash" sound, and Chen Hongyu looked over and saw a koi carp about 10 feet long jumping out of a relatively wide ditch next to the ghost market street.

At this time, half of the koi's body was out of the water, chattering and bargaining with the shop assistant.

It actually works on both land and water, and water monsters can also come to this city.

“Clear soup noodles, excellent clear soup noodles!”

Hearing this voice, Chen Hongyu turned around and saw a noodle stall standing not far away.

At this time, this noodle stall was filled with ghosts.

As bowls of clear soup noodles are served, these ghosts lie above them and smell the smell.

After a while, you can see that the clear soup noodles seem to have lost their luster.

The ghost was also extremely satisfied, took a big coin, and left.

At this time, a little girl I saw ran over.

This little girl is about seven or eight years old, with two buns on her head. She is really cute.

The little girl ran to Chen Hongyu, took a few breaths, then raised her head and said: "Senior, Uncle Bin, grandma asked Xiaoxiao to come and greet you."

"Okay, then I'll trouble my little sister!" Chen Hongyu said with a smile.

"No trouble, no trouble." Xiaoxiao shook his head and led the two of them towards the back of Fang City.

At first glance, this little girl looks like a stranger.

Although she has some cultivation, how did she get here?

"Brother Yan, why are there girls of this size here?"

Chen Hongyu curiously asked Yan Tiebin beside him, and at the same time waved his hand to arrange a magic shield to isolate the sound.

"Well, although grandma is the owner of the ghost market and usually has a decisive and killing side, she also has a kind-hearted side.

Sometimes when we encounter orphans, we pick them up and raise them. A younger sister in my family ended up near Baiyun Temple due to a fight when she was young. Fortunately, she was picked up by her grandma. Later, when the elders in the family found her, she had grown up healthy.

For this reason, the elders in the family are very grateful to grandma.

Xiaoxiao was also brought back from outside by her grandma. Although she doesn’t know her specific life experience, she should be quite miserable.

Fortunately, in this ghost market, although there are some ghosts and monsters in addition to some casual cultivators, everyone, whether out of sincerity or to cater to grandma, treats poor girls like Xiaoxiao who were brought back by grandma as their daughters.

.”

"So that's it, the Lord of the Ghost Market still has such a side." Chen Hongyu pondered in his heart.
