Chapter 32: Taoli Village(2/2)
Seeing that Lin Qian was sure, the middle-aged man nodded:
"Well, a total of one hundred and eleven ghost money."
The middle-aged man knew the price at a glance. Lin Qian didn't say anything. He took out twenty-two colorful pieces of ghost money from his pocket and put them on the counter.
The middle-aged people counted, there were eleven seven-yuan notes and eleven three-yuan notes in total. They nodded and put the money away without any trouble in their eyes:
"The money and goods are cleared, and these are yours."
"By the way, I forgot to tell you. I have a rule. I usually give a piece of advice to people who buy things from me, and this time is no exception. Although it has no effect on you, the rules are the rules."
The middle-aged man stared at Lin Qian with a calm look in his eyes, which could even be said to be numb.
"I can sell these things, and you can buy them, but you have to remember that as long as the things you buy go out of this door, they will not be returned."
"After you buy these things from me, they cannot have much impact on ordinary people outside. Once there is widespread death or strangeness, I will personally come to take back these things, and I will turn you into a commodity.
"
"This is my reminder. If you accidentally release a city-destroying ghost and you still can't solve it, you know the consequences."
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Qian expressionlessly and did not continue speaking. It was obvious that he had finished speaking.
Hearing the middle-aged man's warning, Lin Qian squinted his eyes, and a red light flashed in his eyes. He was silent for a while, nodded, and said:
"Save it."
He put the ghost glasses back on, picked up the remaining three items, put them into the painting, turned around and left without any intention of staying too long. This place was too dangerous. The longer he stayed here, the more he felt that the boss would treat him badly.
Put them in boxes and sell them together...
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Qian who was leaving, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he remembered something, and he said:
"The ghost shop collects plums for three yuan per pound, and ten pounds for them."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Lin Qian stopped. After thinking for a while, he understood what the middle-aged man was talking about. After thinking about it, Lin Qian replied:
"Save it."
After saying that, he pushed open the door of the grocery store and left, and Coco just jumped along with him, looking careless.
Seeing Lin Qian leave, the middle-aged man shook his head slightly:
"This boy is a little weak. Just like that, how did he become the prince of marriage..."
Looking down at the thin book on the counter, the middle-aged man looked thoughtful in his eyes:
"People who control food die too quickly. There is no one who can really control food. It seems that I have to go and take a look when I have time. If I can collect it."
"Hungry has been controlled, but it's still too weak. Look again, this person named Wei Jing is a bit difficult to control, but there is still hope..."
At this time, the book was filled with densely packed small seal characters, some illusory and some solid, erratic.

"It was really an interesting era, much more fun than my era."
The middle-aged man had a smile on his face and closed the book, revealing the cover. The word "Ghost Book" was crookedly written on it in small seals. An extremely biting coldness emerged from the book.
Regarding this sudden change, the middle-aged man's eyes were very calm and he put the book away casually.
After putting away the book, the middle-aged man took out two gold boxes and a blood-red comb from the counter, went to the shelf on the right, and put these three things on them.
"Boy Lin, please surpass those little guys from the Republic of China as soon as possible. They are too boring. They only know how to shrink into their own one-third of an acre of land and don't even look for passages. They are not as courageous as Mr. Zhang."
"He at least found one and tried to deal with it..."
The middle-aged man sighed, with some disappointment on his face, shook his head and walked towards the back room.
But on the street, Lin Qian looked up at the falling snow in the sky, his eyes dark and unclear:
"Did it exist before the Republic of China? It's a bit ridiculously strong. From the looks of it, it doesn't look like he followed the method of controlling ghosts during the Republic of China. Otherwise, he wouldn't be alive today."
"There are very few relics from the Republic of China period that can survive to this day. The janitor at the cemetery may be dead, and the one at the Caesar Hotel is already dead."
"The old man in the ancient house is still alive, but he is dying. The old woman is also dying. The old man in the Chinese medicine shop is also dying. The old man in the tailor shop will also have to live in two or three years."
Compared with grocery store owners, the life of the elderly in the Republic of China was a little short. This is the disadvantage of completing the puzzle. No matter how strong you are, you will die of old age. This is the result of the old man in the Ghost Theater Troupe, even if he can perform time.
Restart...
Lin Qian walked against the snow, her mind a little confused. She turned around and looked at the grocery store. Without saying anything, she turned around and continued moving forward. There are a lot of secrets in this world, but there are still too few described in the original work. Before the Republic of China,
What was it like in that era was not written at all, or the original work was updated slowly, and it was not finished by the time he traveled through time.
If it's over, he won't know everything. It's true that Buddha wrote a thousand chapters in three years, three whole years, it's simply...
If there were any surprises, Buddha might be the first to be attacked.
He now has many doubts and questions. Why did the source of the evil ghost only trace back to the Republic of China and then disappear? Was it deliberately covered up?
What is the source of evil ghosts and why ghosts are immortal? These questions have been with him since he came to this world, and no one can help him answer his questions.
"It's such an interesting world. If it weren't for the mysterious bride, I would really be able to explore it. After all, I can't die now..."
Lin Qian shook his head and was not thinking about these things. These things are not something he can know now and will be discussed later.
I looked up at the sky. It was dusk. It was time to deliver the letter. I should go and see Taoli Village early. Hehe, three yuan a pound of plums sounds like it should be very good. Get more...
Dabei City is located in a large mountain, with tall trees, lush vegetation, and thick snow spread across the mountains and fields.
Today's sky is foggy, and the sun is obscured by thick clouds, with no trace of sunlight coming through. Birds occasionally fly over the branches, and a layer of snow falls.
creak
The sound of shoes stepping on the snow was heard, and a roe deer ran away after hearing the sound, his eyes full of confusion and doubt, as well as a trace of curiosity.
Looking along the line of sight from the robe, there is a young man wearing a pair of blood-stained gold glasses and a windbreaker. There is also a pink and jade girl sitting on his shoulders, with two little feet on the young man's chest.
The front of her head was swaying slightly, looking very lively and cheerful.
Lin Qian raised his head and looked ahead, not paying attention to the sight of the silly roe deer, and his body flashed on the cliff in front.
The roe deer was startled when he saw Lin Qian suddenly disappearing. He jumped up, turned around and ran away. As a result, he hit a tree with a bang...
Lin Qian stood on the cliff, narrowing his eyes slightly and staring at a valley below the cliff. There was a village where every household grew peaches and plums.
Looking from here, the village is lined with green trees. The peaches on the peach trees are fresh and tender, and the plums are green and yellow. The golden sun passes through the leaves and reflects on the peaches and plums, which looks particularly... strange
There is no sun today, but you can actually see sunshine in Taoli Village. It is very unusual from here, but compared with the fruits on the Taoli Village, there is nothing strange about this.
