Liangfeng waited for Yan Man at a 24-hour burger restaurant, where he and Yan Man arranged to meet.
Yan Man came very slowly.
Liangfeng finished a set meal and studied the human skin paper for a while before Yan Man arrived.
Seeing Yan Man's arrival, Liangfeng put away the human skin paper.
Yan Man saw Liangfeng's actions, but didn't ask any more questions. The relationship between the two was not yet to the point where they could ask each other casually.
"Sorry, I'm late. Let's go. I just have to deal with tonight's harvest." Yan Man said with a smile.
Liangfeng saw Yan Man carrying a bag behind him, which should contain the relics that Yan Man had harvested tonight. As Yan Man moved around, the sound of metal colliding could be heard from inside.
Liangfeng got up and followed Yan Man out of the burger shop, then waited for a taxi on the side of the road. There were very few cars on the street at this time.
"Is it easy to get the relics?" Liangfeng asked.
"It's been special recently," Yan Man said. "Actually, these things are not common in normal times, but there will be more of them a month after the Ghost Festival. This is also when we gain the most. We can usually earn enough for the next one month's work." It costs a year, so get out and do more activities.”
"How much money do you make?" Liangfeng was suddenly moved.
"Reapts coexist with risks. This month is also the time when most people die from relics." Yan Man said, but she didn't mean to say more, because she was also a relic user, and she also faced the risk of death. threaten.
The relics are also attractive to ghosts. You cannot escape by hiding at home, and contact with ghosts is very dangerous, and death is inevitable.
Although this month is the fastest time for relics to make money, it is also the time when relics are most likely to encounter dangers.
In order to avoid death, one can only be careful and avoid those ghosts that one cannot deal with.
Liangfeng couldn't help but think of the dead monkey-masked man he saw during the Ghost Festival. The man should be a relic user, but unfortunately he encountered a red-clothed evil ghost that he couldn't deal with.
And the strength of that red-clothed evil ghost...even the skin of [Physical Transformation Master] seems to be incapable of dealing with it.
Liangfeng felt the crisis again, and his system suddenly became less fragrant.
But fortunately, Liangfeng is now trying to understand the ghosts and relic users, and then find a way to survive safely.
But no matter what, strength comes first!
The system is the basis for Liangfeng to improve his strength, and if he wants to improve his strength through the system, he must have money!
But now I have no money!
Liangfeng sighed.
Yan Man glanced at Liangfeng curiously, why was he suddenly unhappy? Is it because of what he said about his death due to the remains?
Yan Man felt that he should explain.
"Actually, as long as you don't seek death, avoid those you can't deal with, and as long as you have good luck, nothing will happen to you." Yan Man said, "Because the powerful ghosts in the city have their own territory, and we won't go to their territory if we don't go there." There will be no danger.”
After listening to Yan Man's statement, Liangfeng nodded, feeling slightly relieved.
The previous red-clothed evil spirit should have been encountered by chance, and the city was not that dangerous yet.
Yan Man called a taxi and patted Liangfeng on the shoulder.
"You sit in the front, you pay!"
Liangfeng: "..."
"Master, go to the old city." Yan Man said to the driver after getting in the car.
"okay."
The taxi started.
"Are you going to the old town so late?" the driver asked.
"Go and do some things." Yan Man said.
"Oh, that's it. Let's go early and come back early," the driver said.
Liangfeng raised his eyebrows. From what the driver said, there was something going on over there.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Yan Man asked.
The driver lowered his voice.
"I heard that it's not very stable over there lately and it's haunted."
Liangfeng looked back at Yan Man, who shook his head and said he didn't know.
"Can you tell me what exactly happened?" Liangfeng asked.
If something goes wrong over there, Liangfeng plans to get off the car now.
Everything is for stability!
"I also heard what people in our team said..."
The driver lowered his voice and spoke.
The old town is the earliest built-up area in Sakurai City. However, with the expansion and development of Sakurai City, the old town has lost its original prosperity. Although there are still many residents, it is no longer the center of the city.
Compared with other districts, the old city is more like an area that has been eliminated by the times. There are many old buildings that have been built for many years, as well as many abandoned buildings.
However, the old town is not worthless. If you want to pursue the development footprint of Sakurai City, the old town is a must-go place, and there are many well-known old shops there, and it is even a relatively famous tourist attraction. At the same time, there are many well-known old shops there. It is also part of the city's culture.
Taxi drivers who drive in the streets and alleys all day are the most aware of the changes in cities and streets. At the same time, they are also aware of the situation in the old city.
"Let me ask you a question first. There used to be a very famous street butcher shop in the old city called Zhuji Butcher Shop. Have you heard of it?" the driver asked.
Liangfeng and Yan Man both shook their heads.
The driver smiled.
"That's right. After all, you are not very old. You were probably not even born when that butcher shop disappeared."
"Disappeared?" Yan Man asked, "Did it go bankrupt?"
"Of course not. The incident at Zhu Ji's Butcher Shop was a big deal back then. Your parents should know about it," the driver said.
"Then what's the problem with Zhu Ji's Butcher Shop? What does something so long ago have to do with the present?" Liangfeng asked.
"Listen to me, there were not so many buildings and buildings in Sakurai City at the beginning, and there were many street vendors. Zhu Ji Butcher Shop was a butcher shop similar to street vendors, selling pork. Then one day, Zhu Ji Butcher Shop The butcher shop was found to have mixed the pork with other meat.”
"Other meat?" Yan Man became interested.
Pork in that era must have been cheaper than other meats. Was it mixed with rat meat?
"That's right!"
"What is it?"
"Human flesh!" The driver said two words in a deep voice, as if to create a terrifying atmosphere.
But Liangfeng and Yan Man were not frightened.
"It turns out to be human flesh. I thought it was rat meat. If I eat rat meat, eh~" Yan Man shuddered.
Liangfeng touched the human skin in his arms and the skull in his pocket, but said nothing.
But I don't know if it was an illusion, but the human skin paper in Liangfeng's arms shook.
Yan Man's attitude stunned the driver.
"Rat meat? Rat meat is actually very delicious... Bah, don't you care that he is selling human flesh? Aren't you scared?"
"What's surprising about a shop that sells human flesh? Compared with human flesh, isn't it the people who cut it off with knives that are scarier?" Yan Man said with a smile to the driver.
The driver turned his head and looked at the half of Yan Man's face exposed in the dark back seat, and couldn't help but shudder.
Then the driver saw a sharp object reflecting cold light in Yan Man's hand.
It's a knife!
"By the way, Liangfeng, what's in your pocket?" Yan Man asked.
"Skull." Liangfeng answered truthfully.
The driver broke out in a cold sweat.
