This vendor's request is really outrageous, yet somewhat reasonable at the same time!
After all, they had just received some news from him.
"How much do you want?" As soon as Gu Jiuqing finished speaking, the answer came to his mind instantly.
He wants a year! How dare you speak!
"What if I don't agree?"
"You can try bargaining!" the vendor said.
Can you still bargain?
Gu Jiuqing immediately said: "One hour!"
"Deal!" The vendor smiled slightly and immediately extended his hand to Gu Jiuqing.
He agreed simply and neatly, but it made Gu Jiuqing feel even more uneasy!
But when you think about it, it's only for an hour, so it's not a big deal.
But at this time, Cang Liyuan stretched out his hand.
"Use mine." Cang Liyuan said.
Hearing this, the vendor was a little hesitant.
"What? They both have a life span, what's the difference?" Cang Liyuan's eyes were a little cold.
"It's not that it's different, it's just that I had an agreement with this girl just now." The vendor said with an embarrassed look.
"What does it matter? We are all one body, why can you want mine but not his! Unless you want more than just one hour of life, there is something else!" Gu Jiuqing said coldly.
"That's not the case! Okay then! Then I'll keep this young master for an hour!" The hawker sighed, as if he had accepted his fate.
Saying that, when he was about to put his hands up, a cold arrow suddenly struck from one side.
Cang Liyuan subconsciously pulled Gu Jiuqing to dodge, and the cold arrow passed by the two of them, and then flew straight towards the hawker.
By the time he tried to stop it, it was already too late.
The arrow pierced directly into the hawker's heart. The hawker's eyes widened in fear and he fell down.
"Ahhhh--killing someone!"
There were bursts of screams from the side, and soon people gathered around to watch the excitement.
Gu Jiuqing frowned, and while exploring the surroundings, he quickly came to the small vendor's side.
Upon inspection, it was found that he had died from exhaustion and could not be saved.
The arrow was still poisonous, and the hawker's skin turned a frightening purple color.
And Gu Jiuqing's consciousness spread rapidly, trying to find out the location of the murderer.
But no matter how she probed, no suspicious person was found.
Was this arrow aimed at them just now?
She stood up with a solemn expression and gently shook her head towards Cang Liyuan.
The vendor was hopeless, and she had an ominous premonition in her heart.
Cang Liyuan patted her shoulder comfortingly and said softly: "Don't worry."
"I'm not worried." Gu Jiuqing said.
Although the smell of conspiracy was strong, she was not really worried.
But if this arrow was aimed at them and caused others to die, she didn't know how to make up for it!
While she was secretly feeling sad, a group of people who looked like officers and soldiers walked through the crowd and came to them.
"Who is stabbing people in the ghost market?" the leading guard said coldly.
Gu Jiuqing found that these officers and soldiers were all very decent-looking, with thick eyebrows and big eyes like the previous patrol officers, and they even had an aura of calmness and authority.
They came over, checked the hawker's body, and then targeted two people.
"What's going on?" the leader asked.
Gu Jiuqing told him what happened. He frowned and said coldly: "So, he died because of you."
"You can't say that!" Gu Jiuqing said, "Even if we didn't dodge just now, the arrow wouldn't have hurt us. It seems like it was aimed at him instead."
To be precise, if Cang Liyuan had not pulled her to one side and the two of them were still standing in the same position, the arrow should have passed through the gap between the two and hit the vendor.
But at that time, the vendor happened to move a little, and the arrow happened to pass through his heart.
And if he is injured in another position, there may be a glimmer of hope.
Thinking of this, Gu Jiuqing's eyes instantly turned cold.
Then this is even more wrong!
Is this just an ordinary hawker? At best, he is just a little greedy for money!
Who could have such a deep hatred for him and want to use such expensive poison to kill him?
The officers and soldiers did not fully believe Gu Jiuqing's words.
He then took out a small beast similar to the one on the inspector's shoulder, and the beast quickly restored the scene.
As Gu Jiuqing said, the arrow seemed to be aimed at the hawker.
"Could it be his enemy?" the officer and soldier asked in confusion.
"Since you have a little beast that can reconstruct what happened, why don't you use it to find the murderer?" Gu Jiuqing said, "How convenient."
The officers and soldiers shook their heads and motioned her to look into the distance.
Gu Jiuqing followed his guidance and found that there was nothing further away.
Even the restored people behind them were blurry.
It can be seen that this thing cannot be completely restored. It can only restore the experience of the protagonist's perspective after selecting the protagonist.
Where they can't see, nothing is as clear.
Since it was found that they were not the murderers, the officers and soldiers let them go.
This surprised Gu Jiuqing. She thought they would be embarrassed.
As if he had read her thoughts, the leading officer said sternly: "This is a ghost market, the most fair and strict, unlike those outside who are seeking personal gains and bending the law. Don't worry, you two! However, although we will not pursue this matter, You may not be able to leave the ghost market smoothly."
"Oh? Why?" Gu Jiuqing suddenly became interested.
"The Ghost Market values fairness and justice. Since you made a deal with him, but before the deal was completed, he was killed. You should try to complete it before you can leave!" the officer said, "This matter will be decided by the patrol. "
Gu Jiuqing, "..."
She said she was always feeling anxious and uneasy!
It turned out to be waiting for them here!
"It seems that it does take a lot of effort!" Gu Jiuqing was not too worried.
The officers and soldiers looked at her expression and shook their heads slightly, seeming a little regretful.
Gu Jiuqing, "???"
But before she could ask any more questions, they were already busy dealing with the vendors.
Obviously, they didn't want to say more about what happened next.
The crowd quickly dispersed, and everyone started busy themselves, as if nothing happened.
At this time, Yan Ziqi's voice suddenly came from behind: "Why are you two still here? It's almost dawn!"
"What will happen when it's dawn?" Gu Jiuqing was puzzled.
She now feels that this delay in childbirth is a big problem!
And Yan Ziqi smiled and said: "Before dawn, living people must leave this place. Otherwise, if they are contaminated with too much aura here, they will never be able to get out again!"
"Who are you?" As soon as Gu Jiuqing finished speaking, he saw that the surrounding scene suddenly became lighter and lighter, almost becoming transparent!
