"This was eighteen years ago?"
What appeared in front of Li Fan and Yang Yan was a lively market. Even at night when the curfew was already in place, the lights were still bright, and there were crowds of people everywhere.
Due to the strong passenger flow, many small merchants and hawkers came along both sides of the street, selling food, drinks, antiques and treasures, and selling ointments and pills. There were shouts and shouts. From time to time, the interest of tourists was attracted and they started bargaining with them.
From time to time, there would also be some women paraded in bold and avant-garde clothes, wearing various trendy clothes that few people could see at that time, which made Li Chong dream back to his past life and think of the fashion shows he had seen in the past.
The swingers teased and chased each other, and the wealthy businessman's eyes widened. Brother Chu, who had come along to watch the fun, was pushed by his companions towards the parade, letting out good-natured laughter.
After these parades, there followed the grand procession of flower cards. One after another, people from other brothels imitated officials and went out, cheering in front and behind, and surrounded their famous prostitutes in sedan chairs to attend the meeting.
There are no such arrogant things as flags, gongs, cards, umbrellas, fans, gourds, moon axes, and stirrups facing the sky, but they are replaced by flower cards, famous brands, flower festivals, and flower umbrellas to highlight their respective Fame and worth.
Among them, the Flower Festival is a tall stick made of clusters of flowers, which represents the appearance of an oiran. It is prized by all the big benefactors.
This is also the ransom price for famous prostitutes. One flower group means one hundred taels of worth. Most of these traveling prostitutes have reached more than one thousand taels.
Tourists from all walks of life were commenting on both sides of the queue, discussing anecdotes about the famous prostitutes competing for the oiran, and telling some erotic stories.
There were also gongs, drums, and suonas playing, and cheerful and exciting passages made the atmosphere more lively.
But it was such a lively and prosperous scene that made the person and cat who knew the inside story uncontrollably tremble with fear. They felt a cold air rushing up from the bottom of their feet, about to come out from the Tianling Cover.
If you enter the treacherous realm, you will encounter many dangerous people!
How many "people" are there in front of you?
Especially before Li Fan came in, he opened his eyes to see the truth. At this moment, wherever he looked, there was gray fog and blood everywhere.
On the top of everyone's head, writings made of pale firelight almost appeared. The dense lines were superimposed, creating an illusion that confused the human eye.
"Evil (mummy) (tourist)"
"Evil (mummy) (merchant)"
"Evil (mummy) (patrol)"
"Evil (mummy) (bearer)"
"Evil (Mummy) (Follower)"
"Evil (mummy) (servant)"
"Evil (mummy) (prostitute)"
"Evil (mummy) (resident)"
…
Calm down, be sure to calm down!
Li Fan took a deep breath and secretly warned himself not to be shocked by what he saw in front of him.
But even so, I still can't help but think that all these "people" present are actually transformed by demons and ghosts.
This is Baihualou and the surrounding Pingkangfang market eighteen years ago. Except for a few ordinary people and newly promoted aliens who were involved, all others were evil spirits.
Once the pattern of their appearance is triggered, they will be attacked immediately!
Even if he is already a good alien master, he still doesn't know if he can survive the siege of thousands of demons.
"This is not the third level of mystery you mentioned before, it may be the fourth level besides the third level!
Its puzzles have been added! "
Yang Yan above her head didn't seem to expect this. Her whole body froze, and she grabbed Li Fan's hair tightly, trying hard not to fall.
Her reaction unexpectedly made Li Fan wake up. He patted the back of the cat above his head and whispered: "Don't be nervous, no matter how heavy it is, we are just here to play."
That's right, their current identity is just a tourist, and they are even VIPs who paid a lot of money for tickets.
No matter how terrifying this Baihualou treacherous realm is, it must still operate according to its unique treacherous laws.
Based on their previous notes and their own guesses, it is not difficult to know that this place is a place where people are obsessed with life and money. To a large extent, it must follow the law that money can make people grind. Therefore, the conditions for entering and exiting here are to hold a flower ticket and personal safety. All have certain guarantees.
For the time being, the strange events staged in this place are far from dangerous, and there are no real casualties among those who accidentally broke in.
If there are no accidents, this place is still in the realm of strange news.
Yang Yan also thought of this, and her tense body finally softened.
"Who is nervous? This great immortal... This great immortal just changed his posture."
She said bravely while no one noticed yet.
"Okay, just be quiet and be a cat. If you need anything, use your magic to send a message to me."
Li Ao was secretly amused. Unknowingly, the previous nervousness also gradually disappeared.
In fact, if you look closely, the scene in front of you is clearly one of peace and tranquility in the prosperous times.
After more than ten years of precipitation and reset, many of the unstable factors here have stabilized and have only recently begun to reactivate.
Thinking of this, Li Fan quickly adjusted his mentality and was no longer bothered by what he saw.
Sometimes, ignorant people are fearless. They don't know that these "people" in front of them are evil spirits, so they won't be afraid.
He silently hypnotized himself in his mind, trying to treat the tourists and guests as ordinary citizens, so he moved forward while searching for the location of the Hundred Flowers Tower.
Eighteen years ago, the street layout here was different from what it was after reconstruction, but with the approximate direction he knew in advance, Li Ao quickly found his target.
What surprised him was that there was a huge open space outside Baihua Building, like a small square, where at least a thousand people gathered.
In the center of the open space, there was a stage several feet square, decorated with splendor and splendor. Pieces of brocade wrapped the surrounding pillars and scaffoldings as if they were free of charge. There were also pieces of colorful cloth to build cloud bridges in the air, hanging everywhere, conveying the scene at that time. The wealth and generosity of the people of Daqian are vividly displayed.
This is probably where the oiran competition is held.
The main game has not yet begun. Several jugglers are on stage, standing on stilts, throwing colorful balls, and making all kinds of funny movements and expressions for people's amusement.
After a while, someone brought out a trained macaque and learned to walk on stilts and throw colorful balls like humans. However, no matter how well trained the monkey was, it could not match the skill of humans. It would fall and throw randomly from time to time, messing up the scene and amusing the audience. Overjoyed.
There are also people performing in the open space on the other side, smashing large rocks on their chests and holding large guns on their necks.
On the other side, spraying oil and spitting fire attracted endless cheers and applause.
Li Chuan looked at this scene, and his heart that had just settled down before could not help but rise again.
This time, we were not worried about the demon appearing, but about the fire hazards one after another.
He vaguely began to understand what the so-called lantern fire incident was about, and why it was related to Baihualou again, and they were part of each other's puzzle pieces.
If you do evil by God, you can still forgive it; if you do evil by yourself, you can’t live!
