Chapter 459 Meeting an old friend by chance
Jumping down without hesitation, Li Qi had already made plans.
First, check to see if anyone sells anything in a place like this.
This is already a deep ocean area. The people who take risks and trade here are basically adventurers seeking money, and many of them come here for the remains of Lord Dragon.
Purchase some ingredients from them and complete the commission for cooking the sea pot. It doesn't matter if you can't buy them all. The scientific research ship will continue to move forward and it will definitely be able to buy them all.
Anyway, Bohaiguo has given all the payment to Li Qi, and there is still a lot of surplus, so there is no need to worry about running out of money.
Secondly, prepare the sacrifices and go to worship Shen Tu and Yu Lei in person, thanking each other for their help to you.
Again, look for any special souvenirs in Donghai, buy some, carve them into hairpins, give them to rabbits, and bring some specialties to other friends by the way.
Finally, take a walk around Dushuo Mountain, then remember it in your mind, and turn it into your own heritage. Maybe it will play a big role in some time and become the key to help you open a certain door.
Once the plan was made, all that was left was action, so Li Qi was among the first to jump ashore. There was nothing to fear about Dushuo Mountain or the Gate of Ten Thousand Ghosts.
People have already said that the treasure ship will protect everyone. Li Qi can now see that there is an invisible layer of energy covering his body. Ghosts cannot get close to him and Yin energy cannot disturb him. He is very safe.
This is an invincible pass. It is so useful when you go out with a fifth-grade treasure ship. If you come by yourself, you will probably be eaten by ghosts outside.
It's just...a bit of a coincidence.
The fifth-grade treasure ship is not that simple, but after getting in touch with it, boarding the ship seemed to be a natural thing, and I was naturally invited by Li Dao.
The same goes for the knowledge of rational and spiritual ways, as well as the Shenyi Army related to Dragon Soul.
It would be impossible without a driving force behind it.
Li Qi's current guess is that the pusher should be a real dragon. After all, this was his original idea. After he comes to the East China Sea, the real dragon will definitely test him and drop bait on him.
Now that you have the bait, you can just eat it with peace of mind. You don’t need to do anything with the rest. At most, you can give Donghai some hints. After that, you can just wait for Donghai to intervene in the journey of the sun and the moon.
With the East China Sea disrupting the situation, it will be easier to break the situation and let the vitality of Luofu Mountain emerge from it.
Li Qi was the mediator. He felt that he could become a bridge between Luofu Mountain and Wushen Mountain. After Luofu Mountain recovered, he could make Luofu Mountain fall towards Wushen Mountain.
Many times, what is missing between cooperation and division is just a little bit of trust.
Li Qizi believed that as a Zhuren, he could become the fulcrum of this trust, allowing Luofu Mountain to hand over the opportunity to Wushen Mountain, completely in exchange for a safe life and inheritance.
But all this requires muddying the water first.
Therefore, facing the temptation of the real dragon, Li Qidu stepped in without hesitation, in order to finally follow the hook, climb to the fishing pole, and meet the fishing dragon.
but……
Li Qi really didn't expect what the old man of the Shenyi Army and his group of dragon-slaying teams would be. Maybe it was really a coincidence? After all, Li Qi felt that such a strong person would not necessarily be plotted by others.
No one can calculate everything. This is what Li Qi has always thought. There will always be various surprises.
God's calculations are not as good as those of man.
Thinking of this, Li Qi had already walked to a city gate on the shore, but saw markets outside the city gate to the north and south.
There are many ghosts and monsters moving around inside, some are short ghosts about two feet tall, and some are giants several feet tall. Among them are men, women, old and young, officials, soldiers, monks, people coming and going, people in the city buying and selling, donkeys carrying carts,
Everything.
It was still dark all around, and surrounded by gloom, the sunlight could not penetrate at all. The only light source was the big peach tree piercing the sky, so the weather was still cool and pitch black.
Li Qi squinted his eyes and looked at the city, feeling that it was illusory and subtle, as if he could see it, but also seemed invisible.
He turned to look at the market over there, and vaguely saw Buddha statues in two rows along the road. The Buddha statues had their eyes closed, as if they dared not open their eyes to see anything.
An ordinary person would be trembling with fear from such a strange thing at this moment, but Li Qi was not too scared. He knew that he had encountered a 'ghost market'.
Well, you are lucky. Although this kind of thing is weird and inexplicable to ordinary people, it is just right for Li Qi.
Witches themselves are a kind of "weird". Generally speaking, witches are an indispensable role in many ghost market stories recorded and narrated by mortals.
Besides, ordinary people would go in and exchange their longevity or promises for the ghosts' items, but Li Qi had plenty of things that he could trade with these ghosts.
So he strode towards the ghost market.
Walking into it, there are many ghosts and monsters inside, some with green faces and fangs, some with sores all over their bodies, some with pus and blood all over their bodies, and some with glowing phosphorus and fire appearing everywhere.
However, there are many like Li Qi who look similar to ordinary people, and you can even see a lot of monsters wandering around in their original selves.
The snake demon is circling and walking through, and the fox demon is swaying one step at a time, seducing the ghost behind him.
Li Qi also saw a big shot dressed like a great evil ghost who was accomplished in cultivation, riding a sedan, but there was a coffin placed in the sedan, and eighteen ghost slaves were carrying it next to it. There were pink and white clouds coming from behind.
, the wine is in the mist, the jade bowl and the golden pot, the light reflects several cases, very arrogant, swaggering through the market.
Ordinary people would probably be frightened in such a gloomy and weird place, but Li Qi felt more and more strange walking in this ghost market.
It's really interesting. It turns out that the great evil ghost who has achieved great cultivation actually has a coffin inside his sedan chair. Interesting, interesting!
Li Qi looked around and shopped for a quarter of an hour, but saw a ghost shop on the roadside, which seemed to be a pawn shop, with many ignorant people standing in it.
When he took a closer look, he found that they were all souls who had left their bodies!
Li Qi saw that several demons and ghosts were constantly blowing on these living souls, exhaling Yin Qi to stabilize their souls.
He immediately became interested. Li Qi had read about this situation in a book. It said that demons and ghosts would sneak into dreams and lure people's souls out of their bodies and into the ghost market.
At this time, people are confused and think that they are dreaming, so they will do business with the monsters in the dream, pawning their life span or other valuable things in exchange for the monsters' help.
Some are asking for money, and the ghosts buy them with money. Some are asking for children, and the ghosts will bribe the ghosts to reincarnate in his home. There are also various weird and weird requirements. As long as the ghosts can satisfy them, he can make a living.
If you can afford the price, you can make a deal.
Many woke up from their dreams in a state of confusion, and some did not even know that they had sold their decades of life in exchange for some money.
Li Qi observed the process of those living souls thinking they were in dreams and constantly talking to demons and ghosts, trying to record them.
However, at this time, Li Qi suddenly discovered that those monsters seemed to have seen Li Qi, so they stopped breathing air on these living souls and hurried away.
Li Qi saw the demons running away and calling someone.
But not long after, Li Qi heard a voice: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to disturb others in the ghost market while doing business, right?"
This voice... why does it sound familiar?
When Li Qi was suspicious, he turned back and looked.
When he saw it, he couldn't help laughing.
A person... ah no, a ghost, wearing a majestic official uniform, was staring at him.
This is none other than Li Weng!
When Li Qi was in Lizhou, when he first dealt with the dispute between humans and ghosts, that Li Weng had his grave dug up by the Wang family!
Unexpectedly, after escaping from the tomb, he would actually come to this ghost market, and look at it like this, and even get an official position? He had just scared the monsters, and the monsters called him to warn him!
When Li Weng saw Li Qi, he frowned at first, and then suddenly seemed to remember something. He suddenly understood, clapped his hands, changed his previous rigid expression, and shouted in surprise: "Zhuren! How could I meet you here?! You're dead!"
Already?!"
"Do you think I look dead? I just came to this ghost gate to see what the ghost market looks like. And look at my yang energy, I am alive and well." Li Qi said with a smile,
He took the initiative to say hello to Li Weng.
This centuries-old ghost seems to be doing well now, wearing the clothes of a government official, and his cultivation has also improved a lot, and he is now considered good among the eighth-grade.
"Zhu Ren, why did you come to this ghost market? We are really destined." Li Weng said with a smile.
"It is indeed fate. I never thought that one day I would meet you again, Li Weng. There is nothing else to say except fate." Li Qiye smiled, looking a little surprised.
I'm really surprised. This is the location of the Ghost Gate in the East China Sea. It's really nostalgic to meet old friends here.
"I came from the East China Sea, Li Weng, how did you come here? You should have been in Baiyue at that time, right? How did you come here?" Li Qi and Li Weng started talking and asked about each other's situation.
Li Weng also looked very happy and responded immediately: "It's a long story. I reconciled with the Wang family at the beginning, and everyone was happy afterwards. I wish everyone left with plenty of water, and the Wang family invited people. According to the
I wish that the pattern you mentioned will help me recast my tomb. After that, I will stop cursing and turn to blessing. From then on, the Wang family will prosper and embark on the path of spiritual practice."
"And I practiced meditation in the tomb for three years. Three years later, something strange came to my door."
"I originally thought that Yin Chai was here to arrest me and throw me into reincarnation. I was already lamenting that I could not be captured. However, Yin Chai said that I had a predestined relationship, got divine energy, and had the Five Elements pattern added to me. Now it has become a climate. From now on, if I don't take the initiative, I can
If you do not enter reincarnation and practice the ghost path regularly, you will be able to live a second life."
"It was then that I realized that the whip that Zhu Ren whipped me had the aura of the Ghost Emperor on it. It was really thanks to Zhu Ren's help that I was able to escape from reincarnation."
Hearing this, Li Qi smiled and said: "I didn't know about this at the time. I can only say that it was all your fate."
"That's what I said, but Li Weng dared not forget to wish people great kindness and virtue. Speaking of Yin Cha, Yin Cha said that I was no longer in reincarnation, so he asked me if I would like to be admitted to the City God Examination and become a serious official.
As soon as I thought about my family background, I went to the Chenghuang Temple and took the exam to become a government official.
, even entered the gate of ghosts and became a serious underworld agent. Now he is assigned to be under the big peach tree of Dushuo Mountain to supervise this ghost market and uphold justice for all the little ghosts. This can be regarded as the right way." Li Weng
After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Li Qi and thanked him for his help.
It was Li Qi who transformed him with the spirit of the Ghost Emperor, and also designed a real five-element pattern for him to temper his ghost body. He was able to practice alone and break away from reincarnation, relying entirely on the other party. It is no exaggeration to say that it was the grace of reinvention.
Now that he has become a shady agent and has gained experience, he understands how amazing it is that an unworthy Zhuren could come up with a magic weapon with the spirit of the Ghost Emperor.
I'm afraid... this Zhu Ren is a disciple of Wushen Mountain, so he is much more prominent than this shady person like myself.
To be continued...
