It has blue bricks and green tiles, paved with stone slabs, and single-story facades on both sides of the street. Naturally, there are all kinds of ghosts shouting and hawking.
Entering the street from the outside, the ghost transformed into a human form. It looked basically like a real person, but the three of us looked a bit nondescript.
Moreover, the shops on both sides of the street are really just like those in costume movies, including teahouses, pawnshops, restaurants and gambling houses.
The three of them walked with their heads lowered. Did I take a look at the ghosts passing by me?
These ghosts wear various costumes, and some even look like they are from overseas.
This ghost city is much bigger than it looks from the outside. The seemingly straight streets are actually complicated. This must be some kind of space formation.
After walking around in a circle, I seemed to have arrived at the center of the ghost market. The layout of the buildings here has changed somewhat.
The most eye-catching one is the three-story building in the middle of the road.
Moreover, in the entire ghost city, this three-story building is the only one with the sign "Wenxiang Building" hanging on the door.
Just looking at this signboard, I couldn't help but have a daydream, but when I looked towards the store, I suddenly woke up. The person I was looking for was most likely here.
I raised my hand and gently pulled the two girls' clothes. They understood what I meant and followed my gaze towards the "Smell the Fragrance Building" in front of them.
"I'll go in and take a look first, and the two sisters will protect me." I whispered while there were no ghosts around.
I was about to step into the store when Haitang suddenly grabbed me and stuffed me with a lot of paper money.
The paper money she gave me was a little different from what I usually use.
Strictly speaking, there are two types of paper money. One is given by people to ghosts, but now we are ghosts.
There is another kind that is burned to ghosts. This kind of money cannot be taken away by humans. In the hands of humans, it is just ashes, but in the hands of ghosts, it is just paper money.
But the one Haitang gave me now should be considered the third type. I took it in my hand and looked at it. It was basically the same as the ghost money held by the ghosts around me.
I looked at Haitang in surprise. I really didn't expect that this ghost money could be faked.
Haitang raised her eyes and glanced into the store. I followed her gaze and finally understood why she gave me this fake money.
Compared with other stores where you have to pay for purchases, there are two menacing ghosts standing in front of this store. You have to pay to enter the store.
I lowered my head and walked up to the two ghosts. The two ghosts were a little disgusted by the dirty look on my body. I didn't say anything and just shook the paper money in my hand.
"Shiwan..." The two ghosts immediately laughed with them.
Fortunately, I could understand nonsense, so I just took out 200,000 and handed it over.
"A distinguished guest..." Now that's it, money can really make a difference.
A ghost who looked like a waiter immediately came over with a smile and led me upstairs.
But looking at the steps in front of me, I had a hard time. This ghost didn't weigh much. I'm a human being. If I stepped on these stairs, they would collapse.
"Please come upstairs, please." Gui Xiaoer stopped when he saw me, stood on the steps and saluted me.
"Master is fine, I'll help you." Fortunately, Wei Yucheng spoke up in time.
Seeing that this ghost boy was already a little suspicious, I had no choice but to step on the stairs.
I only felt that my steps were much lighter. Fortunately, the stairs did not collapse. I followed Gui Xiaoer upstairs tremblingly.
I thought the upstairs would be a layout of partitioned private rooms, but I didn't expect it to be a hall. In the middle of the hall, a long rope hung from the roof, and a person was hung at the end of the rope. Yes, a person.
The man seemed to be dying, and a group of ghosts gathered around him and breathed hard.
What are you smoking? Naturally, it is Yang Qi. I finally understand why this place is named "Wenxiang Tower".
But I didn't know the person in front of me at all. After taking a look at the steps leading to the third floor, I took out a hundred thousand ghost money and handed it to the ghost waiter.
"Dignified guest, please come with me." Gui Xiaoer took the money with a smile, turned around and walked towards the third floor.
I followed Gui Xiaoer, feeling anxious and wondering if Qiu Sheng's two men were really here, and whether they were alive or dead now.
Turning the corner of the stairs, the layout of the third floor is the same as that of the second floor, but the whole environment looks much more upscale. There are not many ghosts on this floor, and the clothes on them are much more gorgeous.
The same long rope fell from the roof, and two people were hung at the end of the long rope.
I just raised my head and glanced, then I waved my hand to Gui Xiaoer pretending to be calm, turned around and walked downstairs.
My heart was beating fast, but I didn't dare to walk too fast or even take a breath. After finally reaching the first floor, I quickly left the store.
"How's it going?" Haitang, who was waiting on the street corner, pulled me and asked in a low voice.
"There are people inside." I was so excited that I almost cried.
"Let's go." Peony said and was about to take action.
"No, there are too many ghosts, so we can't force it." I quickly grabbed Mudan.
"What can you do?" Haitang blinked at me with her big eyes.
"Follow me." I said and walked towards the open space behind the Wenxiang Building.
"Soul-inducing incense?" As soon as I took out the thing, the second daughter recognized it.
"Who is your father?" I looked at Haitang with a wry smile.
"Now is not the time to talk about this. If you light this incense, all the ghosts in this ghost market will come." Haitang became a little nervous.
"There is no other way but to lure them away like this, and then we go to rescue people." I said and put the incense on the ground.
"This is the invisibility talisman. My two friends will ask my two sisters later. I will come to the rear." Handing the talisman to the two of them, I turned around and used the soul-inducing incense.
"Be careful." Haitang said and gave me another handful of fake ghost money, then pulled Peony and ran away.
It took a while for the fragrance to spread, so I wandered back to the main entrance of "Smell the Fragrance Building".
My look was so recognizable that the two gatekeepers saw me approaching and immediately stepped aside to give way.
But money still had to be given, and I lost one hundred thousand fake ghost money in each of the two hands stretched out in front of me.
All I ask now is that they don’t find out too early that the ghost money I gave them is fake.
I didn't dare to waste a moment. After entering the store, I walked directly towards the third floor.
Those ghosts were still surrounding the two of them with their eyes closed and inhaling the yang energy. Time passed by minute by second. I only blamed my lack of soul-inducing incense. I should have ordered a few more.
But I really couldn't bear to part with it, because it was left by the master. If you order one, there will be one less.
Suddenly, a ghost wearing a satin gown suddenly opened his eyes, and then other ghosts seemed to have discovered something.
They all turned around and ran downstairs, and I quickly stepped aside.
The smell of my soul-attracting incense has finally spread, but the more it goes like this, the less time I have. It is estimated that the ghosts in the entire ghost market will gather here soon.
I rushed forward, raised the knife and lowered my hand, and Qiu Sheng's two men were held in my arms.
It was my fault that I was careless. As soon as the rope hanging them was broken, the weight of this person was immediately reflected. Before I could stand firm, the floor beneath my feet collapsed.
If Wei Yucheng hadn't appeared in time, on the third floor, even if I didn't fall to death, I might have killed these two brothers.
At this moment, all the ghosts in the store were attracted by the soul-inducing incense, and the two women rushed in directly. Two invisibility charms were attached to the backs of the two brothers at the same time.
But the sound of the floor collapsing was quite significant, and the janitor in the store immediately opened the back door and walked in.
"You guys go quickly." I stood sideways in front of the two women.
This was not the time for ink. The two women picked up the two brothers and ran away.
The two gatekeepers couldn't see the two brothers with the invisibility charms on them, but they could clearly see the big hole in the floor.
"Ah ah ah ah ah..." The two evil spirits screamed and rushed towards me.
I raised my hand and threw out a handful of fake ghost money.
Money can make the world go round, so I won't fight with them.
Sure enough, the two ghosts lay on the ground and started picking up money. I turned around and ran out.
Unexpectedly, Haitang and Mudan were in such good physical condition that they had already run a long way while carrying their two brothers on their backs.
But all the ghosts in this ghost city are coming in our direction.
Everyone was running towards Wenxiang Tower, but I was running in the opposite direction. The ghosts I passed by all looked at me suspiciously.
Fortunately, the master's soul-inducing incense is so powerful that these ghosts just looked at me and didn't stop to study me, otherwise I would really be dead.
Because there are at least thousands of ghosts in this ghost city. If we fight hard, I don't think I have the ability to fight them out.
Finally, I saw the exit of the ghost market, but saw the two women stopped there.
Because two tall ghosts were standing in front of them at the moment.
